actor big star

Chapter 357 It's Good to Be a Madman

Matters cannot be resolved by patting the table on the spot and getting angry, and what is said is not a nail in the mouth.

As the finale is approaching, the actor has to be replaced. He is still a supporting role with a lot of leftovers. It is so difficult that even a layman can get a glimpse of it.

If it is really changed, and the quality of the entire film must be guaranteed, it means that all scenes with this character will have to be re-shooted, and the manpower, material and financial resources required will be astronomical, especially "Descendants of the Sun" is still in production. When it comes to foreign filming locations, many people think that Zhou Le should not dig a big hole for himself just to have fun if all the filming is really done again.

There are contract constraints, and then find someone to mediate, even if it is a threat, let the previous actors finish the remaining scenes. Back then, even Liu Tianwang had to endure Zhang Bozhi to make a movie, similar to being unprofessional or playing big names This behavior is not uncommon in the circles of the two sides of the strait, but the norm. Solving problems with a strong attitude does not necessarily lead to good results.

Cai Mingzhe is here.

At the dinner Dong Fengyu prepared for Qi Qinghai and Lin Yu that night, Cai Mingzhe attended, which can be regarded as showing a "muscle" on behalf of One Plus One.

Qi Qinghai and Lin Yu, as elders, comforted Zhou Le's emotions. Dong Fengyu also analyzed the pros and cons for him. Cai Mingzhe's arrival gave him confidence. Isn't he just a young actor?I will handle this matter, if you are not satisfied, you can do it according to your own ideas.

Zhou Le looked at everyone, without any indication that I did this out of anger: "I know what everyone means, and I also understand that the effect of deterrence is the same. Even Mingzhe came forward, and the effect is better than my reshoots. , but I think there must always be some persistence that can’t be explained to anyone. I don’t want others to be afraid of me. Even better performances, even if it’s just a small highlight of the supporting role, I think it’s worth doing it again. It’s okay for this drama to be a supporting role. In the future, even if it’s the main role, I will give everyone a deep understanding. No one in the crew is irreplaceable. It doesn’t matter if I’m domineering or because of the quality of the work. I’m just telling you, when you’re here, follow my rules. Otherwise, you’ll have the strength to trick me .”

Cai Mingzhe understood what Zhou Le meant. He needs to walk on two legs. He needs to punish the actor and re-shoot. Maybe this movie doesn't show much. If he can carry it out, then In the circle, Zhou Leke broke free from the status of an actor and walked on the road to become a bigwig in the industry.

Such a partner gave Cai Mingzhe a little more confidence. He was worried about investing in "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World", and now he has a little more confidence. "Descendants of the Sun", as a gift from One Plus One, he I also have the qualifications to participate later, and with the initial investment money, I can directly enjoy the results of the finished works being put into the market.

"This kid is really different."

Cai Mingzhe didn't care that the so-called Zhou Le was also showing his attitude to him. At the beginning of the cooperation, he never thought of taking shortcuts.A partner with a long-term strategic idea, even if he is a little wary of himself, is better than a group of groveling partners who are all counting on themselves.

After Qi Qinghai and Lin Yu left, he said a word to his wife, which summed up today's incident quite comprehensively: "Excluding Zhou Le's strict attitude towards the quality of works, today, he and his partners showed each other their strengths. In the future, don’t say that this kid is not suitable for business, he is suitable for big business.”

..............................

"Descendants of the Sun" announced to the public that there are shots that need to be re-shot, and the production cycle has been extended. This is not news to the audience, but it is spreading within the industry.

A supporting actress in the play was directly removed from the crew, and paid according to the highest compensation standard in the contract. So far, Cai Mingzhe has officially entered the sequence of One Plus One, officially showing the strength of One Plus One to the outside world .

The filming, which ended at the end of September, lasted until late October. Zhou Le led the crew around a large circle. Many shots cost more than 20 yuan to set up the scene. They only shot the scenes where the supporting characters follow the protagonist. For this reason, he showed due arrogance. No matter how much money he spent from the beginning to the end, he never showed any emotional changes due to the increase in production costs.

"Chasing the Dragon" finally got a box office of 6.9 million.

"Speed ​​7" finally won a box office of 31 billion in China, which opened the way for this series of films to become a major IP in the world. It is more popular in overseas markets than in North America. Universal has greater ambitions for the next eighth film.Zhou Le, also under the influence of the outside world, became a member of the speed family. After the script creation, he also became a main character member who must have an important role like Johnson.

During the golden period in October, Zhou Le did not participate in it. He brought the material of "Descendants of the Sun" and gradually gained some professional animation knowledge in the simulation scene, which started his work as a helm rather than an actor. period.

He hardly attends any activities, and even if the outside world has netizens discussing his remarks in the island country, he always chooses to deal with them in a low-key manner and does not respond.

Even if the outside world misunderstood his removal of an actor for reshoots, he didn't bother to explain.The circle and the media are two different fields. The media can play whatever they want without touching his bottom line. All he does is to let the people in the circle know that by cooperating with Zhou Le, I will never be short of breaking the boat. I will never give up my principles for the sake of compromise, even if I pay the price of hurting the enemy one thousand and self-defeating eight hundred, I will not hesitate.

There are very few directors who are like Zhou Le in the post-production period, and there are even no directors like him who turned from actors. His efficiency once made everyone think that he was unprofessional and capricious.

The success of "Charlotte Annoyance" has made him famous in the field of post-production. The post-production team of that film has seen the filmed materials and the finished works. They admit that Zhou Le's "scissors" are very powerful Very professional, just like his overall control of the whole plot when shooting.

Many directors who have been transferred from actors, a [-]-minute movie is shot for several hours of material, and then cut slowly and slowly, I can feel the lack of confidence in the professional field.Zhou Le showed an incomprehensible self-confidence. It felt like he already had a complete version in his mind, and he didn't need to correct himself during the editing process. From him to the post-editing, no, yes From the moment he started shooting, he knew what he wanted.

If it wasn't for the post-production soundtrack and some supporting post-services, it would have only been editing, and it would have taken Zhou Le less than a week to cut the play into the way he wanted, and in a very strong state, give this A drama is defined to 16 episodes. According to the length of an episode of domestic TV dramas, he does not need to add some material. He only needs to cut it in a length of about 40 minutes, and he can get at least 20 episodes of finished content. Many people advise He still has to respect the market, his answer is simple, I have to respect the content.

In the first episode, it’s best to end when the hero leaves the heroine to take the plane to fight. If it goes forward, although it can be put in the hero to find the heroine, and the heroine is resuscitating patients, it’s okay, but it still feels incomplete.

In the version in Zhou Le's mind, he felt that the ending of each episode was just right, and it was also the most suitable choice according to the current plot.He knows that making money in TV dramas should not just be based on the price of the first broadcast and the second round of sales, that is too narrow, and this drama will subvert many people's perceptions.

After getting out of the "Descendants of the Sun" crew, Zhou Le immediately devoted himself to the production of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World", skipping the long preparation time in the early stage, from story to style, from fighting to special effects, everything Zhou Le Le had ready-made answers in his head, and went directly to the production. When Nezha's appearance was finalized by him, everyone was dumbfounded. They thought the director was either a lunatic or a genius.

In the works that everyone is familiar with, there is an unwritten rule in the field of film and television, do not subvert it easily, because [-]% of you have already failed when you start doing it.Classics are classics, and fixed thinking is fixed thinking. Either you find new themes to innovate, or you stick to the old-fashioned remakes. If you make better effects and find better actors, you will not necessarily fail. A large number of remakes of Jin Yong’s works, It has been decades, and it has not been published one edition after another.

Zhou Le didn't come up with the script, but asked the team to make the animation character style. Once Nezha's shape came out, he didn't need to read the script to know that it was a subversion. Subversion is almost equal to failure. Looking at Zhou Le, everyone didn't know what to say , a man who has always been successful has never shown arrogance and arrogance, so is he crazy?Obviously everyone didn't believe it, but if he wasn't a lunatic, why would he subvert such an image that all Chinese people are familiar with and have a fixed perception of?

Subverting the image will inevitably subvert the story, so this animation film with an investment of [-] million will definitely fail in the future?
No one would joke about [-] million, not even a lunatic, so after the initial daze, everyone could only hope that the man in front of them was a genius.

For half a month, Zhou Le lived and ate and lived with the most core members of the animation production studio under OnePlus One, and worked out the core of this animation film in the company.

He also felt that the team members around him didn't understand him, just like before "Descendants of the Sun" made up a lot of shots just for a supporting role. Many people thought that he was too arrogant after being too successful, a madman and a failure. There will not be too much distance between them.

Zhou Le didn't want to explain to the outside world, he just smiled and said to his team: "It's actually quite good to be a lunatic, at least, after you are identified, no one will stop you from doing what you do, let alone There are a lot of people going to criticize, they are just waiting to finally see your joke."
