Chapter 629 Qin Da's Attention

It was January 6th in a blink of an eye.

During the New Year's Day, Tan Yue went home to spend a few days with his parents.

The old couple lived a comfortable life after retirement, and now their only wish is to hold their grandson as soon as possible. Especially after knowing that Tan Yue and Chen Ziyu were in love, they were still complaining about why Tan Yue didn't bring this future daughter-in-law back with him this time.

Tan Yue didn't go home for many years, and his sister-in-law An Nuan had been taking care of his parents. Every time Tan Yue went back, he would buy things for his sister-in-law, and of course he would bring gifts for the little girl Tan Xin.

After not seeing each other for a while, Tan Xin grew taller. This little girl inherited her mother's genes, was smart and clever, and her academic performance was always among the best in the class.

In order to reward Tan Xin, Tan Yue and An Nuan took her to the largest amusement park in Jishui City for a day.

Life at home is always very comfortable, but there is still someone waiting for him in Beijing. Tan Yue rushed back to Beijing after less than three days at home.

January 7, Brilliant Entertainment Company.

President's Office.

"Wolf Warrior 2" is about to start shooting at the film and television base in Beijing, and Tan Yue is preparing for the final work before the start of shooting.

Wu Hong's side acted quickly. Yesterday, "Arms 2" held a start-up ceremony at the film and television base in Shanghai.

Just from this start-up ceremony, we can see the popularity of "Arms 2".

The scene was crowded with people, and it was surrounded by water. Almost all the domestic entertainment media reporters, big and small, were present. Under the control of the staff, the main creative personnel entered the venue.

The start-up ceremony was extremely grand.

Now there is a lot of news about "Arms 2" on the Internet. With the popularity of the first part, it naturally attracted a lot of attention.

In the interview with the media reporters, Wu Hong, Qin Feng and all the main creative personnel had great confidence in the box office of this movie, and felt that it would be easy to exceed the box office of "Arms 1".

January 10.

Beijing Film and Television Base.

Today's weather is particularly cold. Under the blessing of the north wind, even if I was wrapped in a coat, I couldn't help shivering.

"Wolf Warrior 2" set up a shed in the film and television base, and a banner was hung on the shed, which read: "The film crew of the movie "Wolf Warrior 2" started filming with good luck."

There was an altar covered with a piece of red velvet in the shed, with a tripod incense burner in the center, and a roasted suckling pig and some fruits placed next to it.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, the opening ceremony of "Wolf Warrior 2" officially began.

The host took the lead in inviting Tan Yue to come up.

As the director and screenwriter, Tan Yue began to introduce some of the film's conditions and expectations for the box office. Finally, Tan Yue said: "This film will have a lot of martial arts action, and there will be many explosion points on the set. During the filming, everyone must pay more attention to safety and put safety first."

Then Zhang Shengli, Xin Zhi, Zhang Wenhua and other main actors came on stage to give speeches.

Under the guidance of the host, it came to the incense burning session. As for who to worship, it depends on you. As long as you believe, you can also worship the roasted suckling pig on the altar.

A relatively classical music sounded at the scene. Tan Yue came up first to light incense, followed by Zhang Shengli. After lighting the incense, he silently said in his heart: "You must bless me this time."

Zhang Shengli has given his last hope to this movie. If he really doesn't become popular again, he has decided to go behind the scenes and work hard as a martial arts instructor to earn money to support his family.

The main creative staff lit incense in turn. After about half an hour, the entire incense burner was filled with incense representing hope.

The host: "Next, we will enter the opening and unveiling phase. Please ask the relevant personnel to take their positions next to the camera, and then the audience will count down by 5. When the countdown reaches 1, the red cloth will be officially unveiled."

The opening ceremony of "Wolf Warrior 2" was very simple, and Tan Yue didn't think about making a big deal. Soon it came to the "lifting red cloth" phase.

"Five-four-three-two."

"One."

Tan Yue took Zhang Shengli and Xin Zhi to lift the red cloth on the camera.

"Congratulations on the official opening of "Wolf Warrior 2"!"

Then came the last item of the opening ceremony, and all the staff stood together and took a photo.

Major media outlets began to interview. Although it was not as popular as the scene of "Arms 1", because it was Tan Yue's first film after his transformation, many media reporters still came.

Tan Yue came to the reporters, and the reporters shouted the questions they wanted to ask.

Tan Yue said helplessly: "Ask your questions one by one. There are too many people and I can't hear your questions."

The reporter who was called by name asked: "Teacher Tan, do you have anything to say about the comparison between "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Arms 2" on the Internet?"

Tan Yue said: "Two movies of the same type are indeed easy for people to compare together. I don't have anything to say, I just want to make "Wolf Warrior 2" well."

The reporter asked: "Are you confident in "Wolf Warrior 2"?

Tan Yue: "Of course I have confidence. Although this is my first time as a film director, I believe that everyone will not be disappointed after watching "Wolf Warrior 2."

Reporter: "Will "Wolf Warrior 2" choose to be released together with "Arms 2"?

Tan Yue said: "Let's see the schedule at that time. I hope it can be staggered, but if there is no way, it can only be released together."

During the interview, the reporter asked a lot of questions, and Tan Yue did not hide anything that he could answer and told the reporter directly.

At the same time, several main actors were also interviewed.

Zhang Shengli hasn't faced the camera for a long time and is still a little nervous.

The reporter said: "Teacher Zhang, how do you feel now that you were chosen by Teacher Tan Yue to play the leading role this time?"

Zhang Shengli said: "I am definitely very excited now. I am especially grateful to Mr. Tan for giving me this opportunity to let me, an outdated actor, play the leading role."

"Did you agree to Mr. Tan's invitation directly?"

"Of course. I won the Feitian Award for Outstanding Director at such a young age. I think people in the circle will not refuse Mr. Tan's invitation."

The atmosphere at the scene was still very lively, and many people were taking pictures.

Naturally, it also attracted the attention of the extras at the film and television base.

"I wonder if there is a chance to show your face in this movie?"

"With your small body, it is probably difficult to be selected by the crew. Besides, I heard that this movie has very few scenes in China and will soon be filmed abroad."

"Wow, it has to be filmed abroad, then forget it, I'd better develop well in China."

Several people around him rolled their eyes directly at him.

After the opening ceremony of "Wolf Warrior 2", Tan Yue and others came to the shooting site and started to make up the actors who had roles in the afternoon.

A week before New Year's Day, Tan Yue had gathered Zhang Shengli, Zhang Wenhua and other actors who had gun scenes in advance and found professionals for systematic training. Now several people have already got the right posture for holding guns.

Zhang Shengli was not idle during the New Year's Day. He was doing physical training. There are a lot of action scenes in "Wolf Warrior 2". If he didn't have real martial arts skills, he wouldn't be able to reach the standard set by Tan Yue even if he was given another month.

In the afternoon, "Wolf Warrior 2" began filming.

In the longest scene in the domestic plot, Leng Feng took his comrade's ashes home and encountered forced demolition.

Tan Yue shouted with a loudspeaker: "All departments look at the machines in their hands again, get ready, and start immediately."

The bulldozers and excavators on the scene started.

The script supervisor held a board and said: "The first scene, the first shot, the first time of "Wolf Warrior 2", start."

Tan Yue looked at the monitor in front of him seriously, not missing any details.

"I can't let him come back and not find his way home."

Tan Yue shouted loudly: "Okay, click. Everyone, get ready, let's shoot the second take, and the extras should make the movements bigger."

Tan Yue walked to Zhang Shengli: "Teacher Zhang, get ready, it's your turn soon."

Zhang Shengli took a deep breath: "Don't worry, Director Tan."

At this moment, he was excited and a little nervous. After the decline of martial arts films, he has not played the leading role. After years of silence, this moment is finally about to break.

Zhang Shengli kept adjusting his state and immersed himself completely in the role of Leng Feng.

The previous scenes were re-shot for a few more times, and finally it was Zhang Shengli's turn to appear.

There were not too many movements in this scene, but the two kicks were neat and tidy.

Tan Yue, who was behind the monitor, was very satisfied with the two kicks.

Zhang Shengli came to Tan Yue and asked, "Director Tan, how is this scene?"

Tan Yue showed the clip to Zhang Shengli and said, "Not bad, it can be passed in one take."

Zhang Shengli was very happy to hear this, which was a recognition of his acting skills. He begged, "Director Tan, let's shoot another take. I feel that the emotions are still a little bit off."

In the era when martial arts films were popular, Zhang Shengli became famous because of his strict requirements on himself. He once shot a scene of being beaten more than a dozen times. Although it was a prop for filming, it was still red when it was hit. In the end, the actor who played opposite him couldn't beat him anymore.

Tan Yue nodded and agreed to his request. As a director, he was very happy to have such an actor.

The days are very short in winter. It gets dark at five o'clock. Tan Yue did not continue shooting. He let the actors get familiar with it on the first day and find the state of acting.

All the main creative staff temporarily changed to a conference room for a meeting to analyze the problems that might be encountered.

Tan Yue suddenly saw Chen Ziyu at the door, walked out quietly, and asked in surprise: "Why are you here?!"

Chen Ziyu smiled and said: "Why? Don't you welcome me?"

When Tan Yue has a play to shoot, he stays with the crew most of the time. Besides, he will go abroad soon. Chen Ziyu didn't say it, but he was reluctant to leave. He wanted to spend more time with Tan Yue during these few days.

"Of course you are welcome!"

Chen Ziyu pointed to the car behind and said: "I bought some mutton rolls and called everyone to have a meal together to warm up the body."

Tan Yue smiled and said: "General Chen is still caring for his own employees."

The seminar ended immediately, and the entire "Wolf Warrior 2" crew members ate mutton hotpot lively.

The temporary conference room became a restaurant again.

Seeing Chen Ziyu sitting next to Tan Yue, the two of them were talking and laughing, and all the crew members had a melon-eating face.

Tan Yue did not deliberately avoid this. Sooner or later, the matter between the two will be announced to the public, so let it develop now.

Tan Yue kept picking up mutton for Chen Ziyu, who asked softly, "How long will it take to shoot the scenes in China?"

"Very soon, we have finished the most important scene today, and we will have to shoot a few more shots before we leave." Tan Yue felt that Chen Ziyu was a little depressed, and comforted him, "Don't worry, I will try to speed up the shooting process abroad, and I will be back soon."

"Take your time." Chen Ziyu nodded slightly, looking at the mutton on the plate without saying anything.

Magic City.

In a villa.

Qin Da had high hopes for "Arms 2" and provided all-round financial support. In a blink of an eye, "Arms 2" had been filming for a few days. He didn't know the specific situation, so he called Qin Feng.

The phone beeped twice, and then Qin Feng's voice came: "Uncle, what's wrong?"

Qin Da exhaled the smoke from his mouth and asked: "Xiao Feng, how is your progress?"

Qin Feng said: "Everything is pretty good, haha, but Director Wu has a bad temper."

In the four days since the filming started, Wu Hong didn't know how many times he had lost his temper. Qin Feng was very glad that he had some relationship with Qin Da, otherwise he would not be able to escape being scolded.

Qin Da said indifferently: "Big directors all have this temper. As long as you act well, there will be no problem."

Qin Feng took a deep breath and responded awkwardly: "Okay, uncle, I know."

Wu Hong has a nickname "the second generation of the studio tyrant".

Zhang Baihao has restrained himself a lot in recent years due to his age and physical condition, but Wu Hong is in good health and inherited this title.

This is the first time Qin Feng has worked with Wu Hong. He has witnessed the power of this famous director in the past few days. All scenes must be shot in five takes. If the actors make mistakes, he will directly start to argue, and never speak softly. If it weren't for the popularity of "Arms 1", Qin Feng would never come to Wu Hong's crew.

Seeing Wu Hong entering the set, Qin Feng is now a little scared. He is a little suspicious that Wu Hong is not the same person he met in the company.

Qin Da hung up Qin Feng's phone and called Wu Hong.

Wu Hong's voice was a little hoarse: "Boss Qin."

Qin Da has long been accustomed to this. Every time Wu Hong shoots a scene, his voice must be hoarse, and it is also a familiar opening line: "Director Wu, getting angry hurts the liver. You are not young anymore, so control your temper."

Wu Hong disagreed, complaining with a kind of regret: "Looking at the acting skills of young actors nowadays, I can't help but get angry. Only by scolding them hard can I know how to act."

Now Wu Hong feels that his name "tyrant" is also angered by these actors. The acting skills are worse than the previous generation, and they only know how to show off and pose.

Some people below have come to him to report this situation, but Qin Da didn't care. He knew that this was Wu Hong's way of shooting, and the effect was very good.

Qin Da said: "If you encounter problems that you can't solve, just call me directly."

Wu Hong said hoarsely: "Understood, Boss Qin."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Da lay on the chair. He was a little bit wrong about "Arms 1" at the beginning, and didn't let the company pay too much attention to this military-themed movie.

It’s different now. Currently, "Arms 2" is the key project of Tianjing Entertainment Company’s film company, and Qin Da pays special attention to it.
