Future Optical Brain System

Chapter 184 "People are on an embarrassing journey, Thailand embarrassing"!
Each episode is filmed by an episode director looking for character stories that fit the theme according to the established theme of the episode.

When the theme of each episode is established, the director of the episode needs to go through 3 stages before shooting.

The first stage is the 'copywriting' stage, where the episode director reads a number of books on the subject, investigates, and writes the scenario.

The second stage is the 'research' stage, which is to determine what kind of food the episode will have to shoot.

The last step is to go to various places to shoot based on a single delicacy, and find suitable characters in the shooting area to express the food, and shoot the character story that carries the delicacies of this region.

The entire film crew includes 4 pre-researchers, 1 chief director, 1 assistant director, 7 episode directors, 2 general consultants, 15 photographers, 3 editors, and 89 logistics and behind-the-scenes staff.

It is about to travel to more than 70 filming locations across the country.

This is a huge project. Chen Dong, the chief director, and Shen Jiaxing, the assistant director, are in charge of controlling the project and directing it remotely.

10 month 25 day.

The preparations for the creative team, logistics and behind-the-scenes staff of "A Bite of China" have been completed.

Investigators, episode directors, photographers, logistics, and behind-the-scenes staff began to rush to all parts of the country according to the theme of the episode established by Chen Dong for intense shooting.

Chen Dong took some time to exchange "People on the Journey, Lost in Thailand" on the optical brain, and made some modifications. For example, Wang Bao in the movie is a "ice popsicle", and everyone said that Fan Binbin was him. Girlfriend, there is no such star as Fan Binbin in this time and space, so I changed this paragraph in the script to say that Wang Bao is a fan of Chen Ying. At that time, it will be OK to let Chen Ying make a guest appearance, and I have revised a few omissions The place, then, was registered with the Motion Picture Copyright Society.

After registering, it means that the copyright of the film "On the Journey, Lost in Thailand" belongs to you, and no one is allowed to counterfeit it.

This time, he plans to direct it himself.

Chen Dong has long wanted to be a director and has made a lot of preparations.

During the past year or so, he used his spare time to supplement the basic knowledge related to directors.

During the shooting of the previous two films "Crazy Stone" and "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demon", Chen Dong learned from Wang Sen the skills and experience of directing, as well as the grasp of the mentality and personality of the characters. Learned 8%.

There is also the movie "Lost in Thailand, Lost in Thailand", Chen Dong likes it very much, he has watched it at least 4 times in the original time and space, and he also joined "Lost in Thailand", and discussed it with fans of "Lost in Thailand" The mentality, personality, and acting skills of the three main characters Xu Lang, Wang Bao, and Gao Bo in the movie, as well as many details in the movie, are also clearly remembered.

It can be said that every detail of the whole movie "Lost in Thailand" is in Chen Dong's mind, and the personality and mentality of each character in the film are well known.

I believe that I can grasp this movie well.

Coupled with the guidance of an assistant director with rich shooting experience and skills, everything will be foolproof.

Now that the decision has been made, I started to act, and "People on the Journey, Lost in Thailand" will be released in time for the Spring Festival.

Before filming, however, a film company had to be formed.

In this way, if you have your own film company, you can save a lot of trouble in the production and distribution process.

If you want to maximize the profits of each film you cast in the future, you must have your own film company in order to have a greater voice in the film and television industry.

A few days later, a film company called 'Starlight' was established.

General Manager: Chen Dong.

Deputy General Manager: Li Rixin.

Li Rixin is an executive poached from a major American film company with a high salary through a headhunting company.

As a Chinese, he was able to gain a foothold in a major American film company and climb up to senior management step by step. It can be said that Li Rixin's ability is very good.

Indeed, Chen Dong confirmed this after reading Li Rixin's resume.Li Rixin's performance is good, he also has a certain reputation in the circle, he is familiar with and proficient in the operation and management of film companies, and Li Rixin's vision is very precise, and he can pick out the movie scripts that can make money and bring benefits to the company from countless scripts.

Chen Dong recruited him with a high salary to be responsible for the management and operation of the company.Of course, now, there are only two people in the whole company, the general manager, Chen Dong, and him as the deputy general manager. His first job is the preparation of various departments of the company and the recruitment of company personnel.

Under the deputy general manager, there are various departments, such as the administration department, marketing department, planning department, pre-shooting team, post-production team, financial and accounting department, etc., which need to be slowly prepared, established, and staffed.

Of course, these can all be done step by step.

The most important thing for the establishment of the company is to shoot "People on the Journey, Lost in Thailand".

The investment of this movie is 4000 million, and the investment budget is 1 million more than the original time and space. The extra part is mainly used in shooting, which makes this movie more sophisticated and more refined than the original version.

The script of "People on the Journey, Lost in Thailand" has already started preparations.

Director: Chen Dong.

2 assistant directors.

A shooting assistant director assists the director in completing the artistic creation and shooting of the film.

There is also an assistant casting director who assists the director in selecting actors.

The assistant casting director contacted Li Bin, who had worked with Chen Dong in Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons.At that time, as the assistant director of casting in "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", he was able to choose the roles or secondary roles that Chen Dong needed very well, quickly and very well. There is no doubt about his ability.

This time, Chen Dong, the assistant casting director of "On the Journey, Thailand", once again chose to cooperate with Li Bin.

Wu Chunyi was chosen as the assistant director of the filming.

Wu Chunyi, like Wang Sen, is an academic and has a very solid foundation of director knowledge.

Moreover, after more than ten years of filming, the director has rich experience and skills.

Wu Chunyi not only has a very solid foundation of director knowledge, rich experience and skills in directing, but also has won awards for many films. Many people born in the 70s and 80s grew up watching his films.

As the candidate for the assistant director, Chen Dong chose him.

There are three leading actors in the play, Xu Lang, Wang Bao, and Gao Bo. Gao Bo was selected as the protagonist, who was played by Guo Shi, who played the black skin in "Crazy Stone" and became popular. Chen Dong felt that "Crazy Stone" The black skin in "People on the Journey, Lost in Thailand" was carved out of the same mold as Gao Bo.

Although, the black skin in "Crazy Stone" is simple + rough 'stupid', but in the original version of "People on the Road, Thailand", a "secret black", black clothes, black pants, black frame glasses, There is always a contemptuous expression on his face, but whether it is Hei Pi or Gao Bo, there is a characteristic from the inside out, that is 'black humor!
