Chapter 676 Yu Bin’s Ambition
Within a week after Tan Yue finished writing the script for "Wulin Wai Zhuan", the crew had basically completed the cast, except for some supporting roles.
Tan Yue did not plan to find them slowly. "Wulin Wai Zhuan" had too many episodes and the filming process was very long. The missing supporting roles could be found slowly later.
Because "Wulin Wai Zhuan" is a situation comedy, unlike traditional TV series, each episode is an independent story module. Most supporting roles only have one episode and will not run through the entire series. Those who have not yet found supporting roles can be filmed later.
As for the work of finding actors, it was naturally handed over to Qian Tao. After Qian Tao had a target, he handed it over to Tan Yue and let Tan Yue check it.
On October 31, the last day of this month, the crew of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" gathered together.
Tan Yue set the start date of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" to be November 1. In the one or two days before the start of filming, the actors were all in place. Everyone will have dinner together tonight to get familiar with each other and do some running-in for the subsequent filming.
This meal was also scheduled at Tianling Hotel, because we had to start work the next day. We didn't drink tonight, and we gathered together to chat.
Nearly half of the actors were contracted artists of Brilliant Entertainment Company, and everyone was familiar with each other. There were also artists from other companies, but the entertainment industry was so small that some knew each other, some had met and were just nodding acquaintances, and some didn't know each other, but the entertainment industry was so big that you could get them just by talking about relationships.
Although we didn't drink, the meal was quite joyful.
The next day, early in the morning, a bus took the crew members of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" to the film and television base in the suburbs of Beijing.
When Tan Yue selected actors, he almost never chose those young actors who couldn't bear hardships. Most of them were quite dedicated old actors.
And everyone also attached great importance to the new drama "Wulin Wai Zhuan" directed by Tan Yue. You know, playing a role in a TV series directed by Tan Yue is really something that many people can't even ask for.
So for the arrangement of the crew, such as getting up at 6 o'clock and setting off from the hotel, from the five-star hotel in the city center to the second-level hotel in the film and television base, everyone has no complaints.
This is the norm in the entertainment industry. Tan Yue sometimes feels that the development of the entertainment industry is a bit deformed. I saw in the news before that some young actors had a small wound as big as a pinhole on their fingers during filming, and they all wanted to go to the hospital for bandaging. There are also actors who don't even memorize their lines during filming, and just open their mouths to read numbers, and find someone to dub them later.
It is hard to imagine whether this is an actor found for the crew or an ancestor found for the crew.
In Tan Yue's crew, he will never allow this situation to happen. In his opinion, for an excellent actor, hard work is the minimum foundation. Not to mention getting up early to film, even if it is three or four in the morning, you have to obey the arrangement of the crew.
After arriving at the Beijing Film and Television Base, the actors can go to the hotel to rest, but the crew members started to get busy directly. This morning, the opening ceremony of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" will be held as usual, and the real shooting will not start until the afternoon.
In fact, it is not troublesome to arrange the opening ceremony. Everything needed has been prepared before, just some trivial work.
Before ten o'clock, the crew members of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" had arranged all the objects for the opening ceremony.
At this time, many media reporters have surrounded "Wulin Wai Zhuan".
There have been rumors that Tan Yue is going to shoot a new drama, and the theme is exactly a sitcom.
This topic can be said to be full of gimmicks. Tan Yue's current status in the film and television industry can be said to be the most outstanding level among many Chinese directors. The well-known director Jiang Bei said in an interview before that Tan Yue is a genius director. In fact, this is nonsense. Everyone can see that Tan Yue is a genius director, but the person who said this is Jiang Bei, who also lifted Tan Yue up invisibly.
Since "Underground Traffic Station", many people have been eager for Tan Yue to make another sitcom. First, "Underground Traffic Station" is too exciting. After watching "Underground Traffic Station", watching other TV series can't help but feel a little boring. Second, many directors and screenwriters in the circle want to learn more from Tan Yue. At present, there are dozens of sitcoms in China, and no main creator dares to say that they have not watched "Underground Traffic Station" and have not been influenced by "Underground Traffic Station".
Many media have tried to verify the authenticity of the rumors with Brilliant Entertainment Company in various ways before, but before they can confirm, "Wulin Wai Zhuan" is about to start filming.
Tan Yue did not respond to the media's inquiries before, and "Wulin Wai Zhuan" also needs momentum to start filming, so Tan Yue did not stop the arrival of many media. As long as they come, they can watch before the opening ceremony of "Wulin Wai Zhuan".
This time, there are hundreds of media coming to the opening ceremony of "Wulin Wai Zhuan".
On the cement floor, there was a 20-30 meter long red carpet. On one side of the red carpet was a large poster for the start of filming for "Wulin Wai Zhuan". Five or six meters in front of the poster was an eight-immortal table with pig heads, chickens, ducks, fish and other offerings on it. In the middle of the offerings was a palm-sized incense burner, and next to the incense burner were a bunch of unlit incense sticks.
After the start of the filming ceremony, Tan Yue led the main creative staff of the crew to start burning incense.
At the same time, the media reporters nearby pressed the shutter of their cameras, and photos were taken one after another.
After burning incense, Tan Yue briefly accepted an interview with the reporters on site.
Tan Yue originally didn't want to be interviewed, but since they were all here, it was just a matter of course to say a few words.
After the power-on ceremony, it was already 11:40, and it was time for lunch.
The crew has dedicated staff to buy boxed lunches, but although it is a set lunch, it is relatively rich, with one serving of rice per person, plus three meat and two vegetable dishes.
Under a temporary arbor, Tan Yue sat on a maza, holding a lunch box in his hand. He had been busy all morning and was a little hungry. While eating, a fair-skinned and good-looking young man walked in.
"Director." The young man came to Tan Yue and said.
Tan Yue raised his head, glanced at the young man, and said with a smile, "Xiao Bu, are all the reporters gone?"
The young man's name is Lu Xiaobu. It is said that his father admired his ancestor Lu Bu very much and gave him a small cloth.
When filming "Lotus Lantern", Lu Xiaobu was with the crew, and later filmed "Underground Traffic Station" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan" with the crew. He was very capable, and Tan Yue was deeply impressed by his name. , so this time during the filming of "Wulin Gaiden", Tan Yue asked Lu Xiaobu to be the director's assistant.
Lu Xiaobu nodded and said, "They're all gone."
Tan Yue hummed and said with a smile: "Okay, let's all go, so we don't have to chase people away. You haven't eaten yet, right? Let's eat together. After eating and resting for a while, it's time to prepare for the first shooting in the afternoon."
"Okay, director." Lu Xiaobu nodded, picked up a lunch box next to him, sat on a horse next to him, and started eating.
Reporters from various media came back from the opening ceremony of "Wulin Gaiden" and brought first-hand information. Although they did not get much information about "Wulin Gaiden" from Tan Yue, Tan Yue wanted to film It's a new drama, and it's also a sitcom, which is already the biggest draw.
Soon, news about Tan Yue and his new drama "Wulin Gaiden" were widely reported on the Internet.
"Jinghua Daily": "Tan Yue's new drama "Wulin Gaiden" has officially started production, and the opening ceremony will be held at the Beijing Film and Television Base on November 1!"
"Southern Entertainment Weekly": "The rumors are true, Tan Yue's new drama has started filming. This is his second sitcom after "Underground Traffic Station"!"
"Magic City Morning News": "The TV industry has once again set off a trend of sitcoms. Previously, "Jiang Hu Piao Hao" started filming, and now "Wulin Gaiden" has attracted attention again!"
"Yangcheng Evening News": "The title of Tan Yue's new drama "Wulin Gaiden" is the same type of sitcom as "Underground Traffic Station". I wonder if it can break the sitcom ratings record set by "Underground Traffic Station"!"
Online, many netizens were shocked.
Previously, the news that Tan Yue was going to film a new drama or sitcom only spread in the entertainment industry, and most netizens didn't know about it.
Now I suddenly saw online media reporting that Tan Yue's new drama has been launched, and many people were confused.
"Holy shit, is it true? Teacher Tan Yue is going to film a new drama? Or is it a sitcom?"
"Oh my god, the surprise came so suddenly. I really didn't have any precautions!"
"Ahhhhhhh, it's true! It's true! I thought I had read a fake news, and then I searched online anxiously. Unexpectedly, even "Jinghua Daily" and "Yangcheng Evening News" reported it. There are photos, it must be real! ”
"I've always wanted to see Mr. Tan Yue shoot a new sitcom, but I didn't expect that I'd finally wait for it in my lifetime!"
"Oh haha, is it possible that our teacher Tan Yue's comments on Weibo were seen by Teacher Tan Yue?"
""Wulin Gaiden"? It seems to be about the ancient martial arts. Although it is also a sitcom, it seems to be completely different from "Underground Traffic Station"."
"Hiss, do you think this is because Teacher Tan Yue was very unhappy after watching Yu Bin's "Jianghu Tickets", and then decided to film "Wulin Gaiden"?"
"Hahaha, I hope that's the case. I've long been dissatisfied with the films "Jianghu Family" and "Jianghu Ticket Number". It's time to teach them a lesson!"
Jianjiang Province, Hengdian Film and Television City.
On the set of "Jiang Hu Ticket Number", in a tent of more than ten square meters, the air conditioner whirred and the temperature was controlled at 25 to 6 degrees, which was ten degrees lower than outside.
Director Yu Bin is sitting on a chair behind the table. There is a laptop on the table. On the computer is the content shot this morning.
Although the results of "Jianghu Family" were very good, Yu Bin did not relax about the new drama because of this. On the contrary, he was extremely careful and conscientious in the filming of the new drama "Jianghu Ticket Number", and had to check the content repeatedly every day. all over.
He has high hopes for the new drama "Jiang Hu Ticket Number", making this drama a new milestone classic in sitcoms. When future generations mention sitcoms, they will not be able to bypass him. Yu Bin name.
Yu Bin is also ambitious, and his ambition is not small.
Ding ding ding.
While Yu Bin was checking the shooting content, the mobile phone placed on the table suddenly rang.
Yu Bin picked up his phone and looked at it. It was a call from Director Qi Kai.
Yu Bin pressed the answer button. He was the only one in the tent at the moment. He didn't bother to pick up his phone and just clicked on speaker phone.
"Director." Yu Bin smiled.
On the phone, the voice of Qi Kai, director of the TV series department of Huaguang Entertainment Company, came, "Director Yu, are you busy?"
"No, I'm resting in the tent."
"Well, Director Yu, have you seen the news about "Wulin Wai Zhuan"?"
"Wulin Wai Zhuan? What is this?"
Yu Bin frowned and asked in confusion.
Although there were rumors in the circle that Tan Yue was going to shoot a new drama, it was not detailed and the title was not revealed.
After that, "Jianghu Piaohao" began filming, and Yu Bin also joined the crew and devoted himself to the filming of the crew. Not to mention being isolated from the outside world, he almost had no time to learn about it.
The news of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" was only widely reported on the Internet today, and Yu Bin was still unaware of it.
Qi Kai's voice was a little solemn on the phone, saying: "Director Yu, "Wulin Wai Zhuan" is a new drama that Tan Yue is going to shoot. Today, the drama just held a start-up ceremony at the Beijing Film and Television Base. This drama is also a sitcom."
After hearing Qi Kai's words, Yu Bin was also stunned. He raised his eyebrows suddenly, "Tan Yue also shot a sitcom?"
"Yes, and I don't know whether he did it intentionally or not. The new drama is also set in ancient times, and it is quite similar to "Jianghu Piaohao". It also tells the story of ancient martial arts and rivers and lakes. I am worried that he is here for "Jianghu Piaohao." Qi Kai said with some concern.
When Yu Bin first heard the news, he was also a little nervous. After all, a person's reputation is like a tree. Although Tan Yue has not shot many dramas, the ratings of each of them are ridiculously high. If you ask who has the most impressive name among the many directors in China, seven out of ten people will say Tan Yue.
However, the nervousness soon dissipated, and Yu Bin's face was eager to try. He began to look forward to it, "Director, I want to face Tan Yue head-on."
Qi Kai: "."
On the phone, Qi Kai reminded: "Director Yu, I have been dealing with Tan Yue for many years. This person is still quite capable. Don't underestimate him, otherwise, it's easy to fall."
Qi Kai's words were still a bit polite, but the reason why he came to Huaguang Entertainment from the thriving Brilliant Entertainment Company was all thanks to Tan Yue, so when he heard Yu Bin's contempt for Tan Yue, he couldn't help but remind him immediately.
