Chapter 835 "Around the World"

Time flies, and it's mid-October in a blink of an eye.

Suzhou, Jiahe Garden.

Wang Letian, who was half asleep, was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. He packed up the soy milk machine and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Wang Letian patted his belly, which looked like he was pregnant for several months, and just sighed.

He was prone to obesity, so he didn't have much motivation to lose weight.

"Why can't I hear the sound of the soy milk machine?"

Wang Letian pricked up his ears to listen to the movement outside, but there was still no sound. He originally thought that the soy milk machine was broken, but after coming out, he found that he forgot to plug it in.

"I woke up, but my soul was still lying in bed." Wang Letian plugged in the power while complaining about himself.

After washing up, he sat on the sofa in the living room in a daze as if his soul had left, and his brain was completely empty.

"Finally it's okay." The soy milk machine stopped working.

While waiting, he finally got rid of his sleepiness and recovered.

For Wang Letian, breakfast is to prevent his gastrointestinal disease from recurring. Eating a little will make him feel much better.

There is nothing else on the table except soy milk and some pickles.

He put up his tablet and drank soy milk, and breakfast started like this.

"This person writes well."

Wang Letian read the film reviews written by others, and at the same time, he was thinking about where he could learn from. The reason why he can stand out in the film review circle with serious internal circulation is a process of continuous learning. After the rise of short videos, not only has the threshold for film reviews been lowered, but there are also many tricks. If you don't make progress, you will inevitably be eliminated.

"Learn until you are old and live until you are old" has always been his motto.

In Wang Letian's day, most of the time is spent reading film reviews written by others on the Internet, and the rest of the time is spent playing games.

Looking at the film reviews, the soy milk in the bowl was empty before he knew it.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Wang Letian lay on the sofa in the living room with a tablet in his arms, enjoying the air conditioning.

He wandered around the movie forum, and many people were discussing Zhang Baihao's new movie "Around the World".

"I heard that "Around the World" is about to be completed. I wonder how this movie is?"

"The quality should not be bad. After all, this is the first movie in our country to be officially released simultaneously around the world. If the quality is not good, it will be a shame for our entire country."

"But we can't be too optimistic. It is a good thing for movies to be released simultaneously around the world, but the competitive pressure will also be greater. Looking at those foreign blockbusters, to be honest, I am very worried about the performance of "Around the World" after its release."

"Anyway, it is a domestic movie. If it is to be released globally, of course we still have to support it!"

"Time flies so fast. In a blink of an eye, Director Zhang's movie is about to be completed! Looking forward to it!"

Wang Letian, who has watched countless movies, is very worried about this movie. It is not just Zhang Baihao's movie. He is a little worried about the entire domestic film.

He is very clear about the gap between domestic and foreign films, and the situation is not optimistic.

Fingers continue to slide the screen of the tablet, watching the topics discussed by others.

"Brothers and sisters, do you have the latest news about Mr. Tan Yue's new movie "The Truman Show"? I watched the opening ceremony online, but I can't see any other follow-up news."

"Like you, there is no news. It is probably still being filmed. But with Mr. Tan's ability, it should be soon, after all, so much time has passed."

"This is a movie that will be released simultaneously around the world. Maybe the shooting time will be longer and it will be carefully crafted."

"I am looking forward to Mr. Tan Yue's new movie. I hope it will be as popular as it is in China."

Among the five directors, Wang Letian is most looking forward to Tan Yue's movie. He thinks Tan Yue may be the only Chinese director who can achieve good results in the global film market.

The crew of "The Truman Show".

Under the scorching sun, everyone in the crew has darkened a few degrees. Tan Yue is among them. Recently, when he comes out to film in the morning, he will spray some sunscreen spray that Chen Ziyu bought online.

Tan Yue holds a megaphone and directs the placement of props in various departments on the scene. The sweat on his face falls to the ground like water drops, and his vest is soaked.

The shooting site was being set up in an orderly manner. A group of extras were listening to the assistant director's instructions, and Ma Guoliang and Xin Zhi were rehearsing their scenes.

More than half an hour later.

The assistant director came over and said, "Director Tan, the extras' scenes have been explained clearly, and Teacher Ma has also rehearsed their scenes with them."

Tan Yue nodded and said, "The site is set up, arrange them to their positions, and we will start shooting immediately."

The extras entered the shooting site under the arrangement of the assistant director.

After the script supervisor hit the board, the shooting began.

Truman drove to leave the island. After walking around the city for many times, he thought he had found a way out, but was stopped by the police.

"Back off, nuclear leakage, the factory must be closed and the road must be blocked."

Truman asked in confusion, "Is there any other way?"

"The entire factory area is completely blocked."

Truman looked helpless, and his wife said, "Do you need help?"

The police shook his head and said, "No."

Truman said angrily, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, Truman."

Tan Yue stared at the monitor intently, and he was very satisfied so far.

The ‘Truman’ on the monitor frowned and noticed something unusual. A policeman he had never met actually knew his name.

Ma Guoliang was completely immersed in the role. In order to show Truman’s uneasiness at the moment, he accidentally tripped and fell to the ground when getting off the car.

"Click." Tan Yue immediately stopped filming.

The extras on the side quickly helped Ma Guoliang, who was lying on the ground.

Tan Yue and others immediately gathered around.

"Is it okay, Teacher Ma."

Ma Guoliang apologized: "I'm fine. I'm sorry, I didn't stand firm on my feet. I can feel the fall in advance."

Ma Guoliang was about to fall to the ground in the upcoming plot.

The staff patted the dirt off his body.

Tan Yue breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay."

"I'm sorry, everyone." Ma Guoliang bent down and apologized to the extras and staff present. He felt very sorry for delaying the filming progress due to his negligence.

"Well, let's do the next scene again."

"Truman" had to jump from the car and rush through the crowd, which was dangerous. Ma Guoliang's accidental fall this time was a reminder.

Under the guidance of professionals, the subsequent scene was rehearsed three times.

These actions are no problem for Ma Guoliang. When he was filming "Lotus Lantern", he learned many actions.

Ma Guoliang said confidently: "There is no problem, Director Tan."

"Okay." Tan Yue returned to the monitor: "All departments are ready."

As the recorder records, the shooting continues.

Truman got out of the car, jumped over two cars in succession, and trotted all the way until he was stopped by "extras" wearing protective suits.

Looking at the people gradually surrounding him, Truman ran into the woods nearby.

"Click."

It will be another scene after Truman runs into the forest.

Tan Yue said nothing and stared at the picture just taken. He not only wanted to see Ma Guoliang's expressions and movements, but also the reactions of the extras.

"Okay, pass." Tan Yue stood up and arranged: "Continue to shoot the next scene."

Mid-December.

China, Qindao, seaside.

"Around the World" crew.

Pakho Chang stood in the crowd, holding a loudspeaker and shouted loudly: "I announce that "Global Travel" is officially finished!"

The crew immediately cheered.

"Oh ho, it's finished. I don't want to go anywhere now. I just want to lie down at home."

"Although filming is very tiring, this time is really like traveling around the world. During the break, I still want to run out. Lying at home is the best."

"You are right. If it weren't for this movie, I would never have been able to travel to so many places abroad."

"We're done. I haven't seen my wife and children for several months. Now I dream about them every night when I go to bed. I just want to go home as soon as possible."

"I can have a good night's sleep when I go home, it's so cool."

The crew started taking photos. The main actors and Zhang Pakho couldn't escape, and many people were pulling them to take photos with them.

Today is the happiest day of Zhang Pakhao’s life since he turned on the camera. After putting in so much effort and traveling to more than ten countries, it was finally completed today.

He was very satisfied with the movie. Although the filming process was quite hard, when he saw the wonderful pictures captured, he suddenly felt that the hard work was nothing.

During this time, Pakho Chang has been paying attention to the news of the new films of the other four directors. He can basically conclude that "Around the World" will be the first Chinese film to be released simultaneously around the world.

He has great confidence that "Around the World" will be a great success in the global film market. By then, his name will surely be remembered by audiences from all over the world.

After everyone greeted them, the crew of "Global Travel" took a group photo.

Afterwards, Zhang Pakho and the deputy director directed the preparation of props and photography equipment on site.

"Director Zhang, the script and storyboards of "Global Travel" are all placed here."

"The party will be left in my car."

It was Zhang Pakho's habit that he would take all the scripts he used during the filming process home and keep them.

Thinking about having been busy working on this movie for so long, I feel very emotional.

When Pakho Chang received the script, he was attracted by the story inside.

The movie is about a Chinese man who wants to travel around the world. Starting from China, he finally returned to China. Many interesting things happened in various countries during this period.

At that time, I thought it would be quite difficult to shoot scenes all over the world, but I didn't expect that it would actually be filmed in the end.

"Director Zhang." The assistant interrupted Zhang Pakhao's thoughts: "There are several media reporters over there who want to interview."

"Let them come directly."

Pakho Chang answered every reporter's question calmly.

"Director Zhang, this is your first movie to be released simultaneously around the world. Are you confident? Is this movie any different from the previous movies you have made?"

"First of all, I still have confidence. I believe that "Global Travel" will definitely achieve good results. In addition, the difference between this movie and previous movies is that it lacks some localized things and has more of what everyone often says. of globalization.”

After answering the reporter's questions, Zhang Pakho continued to arrange for employees to pack things.

The interview about Zhang Pakho was quickly reported on the Internet, causing heated discussions among netizens.

"It's finally finished. I must go to the cinema to support it."

"The first domestically produced film to be officially released globally simultaneously has been completed. I hope it will be released soon."

“Looking forward to Director Zhang’s new movie!”

"I have been paying attention to this movie for a long time, and now it is finally finished. I will definitely support Director Zhang's movie."

"In the past, foreign blockbusters entered China. Now, are our films also going to enter the film markets of other countries?"

South China Sea.

The crew of "The Truman Show".

The north has entered the cold winter, but the island where the crew is located is still warm as summer, which has no impact on the filming of the plot.

After more than six months of filming, "The Truman Show" has reached the post-production stage and will be completed soon.

After such a long time together, everyone has a tacit understanding, and many scenes are basically filmed in one take.

Everyone knows the importance of this movie, so sometimes even if they have met Tan Yue's requirements, the actors themselves will ask to reshoot, and they all want to make the movie to the extreme.

The effort of one person is self-discipline, and the effort of a group of people is atmosphere. In such an environment, the filming of "The Truman Show" has been moving in the best direction.

Just after filming a scene, the crew members sat together in twos and threes. Some were resting and chatting, and some were checking equipment.

Tan Yue sat under the tent to rest and flipped through the entertainment news on his mobile phone.

"The filming of "Around the World" is completed!" Looking at the news headline, Tan Yue read it out in a low voice.

After clicking in, I saw the report that "Around the World Travel" was completed in Qindao, China, and an interview with Zhang Baihao.

After reading the entire report, Tan Yue felt that this should be a good movie.

Although he could not know too much about the content of the movie, Zhang Baihao, a veteran in the film industry, revealed confidence between the lines.

But what kind of box office results can it achieve in the global film market in the end?

It is really unpredictable.

Tan Yue has always studied the foreign film market, and it is hard to say whether this type of movie can be liked by audiences from all over the world.

"Get ready and continue filming."

Tan Yue threw these ideas behind him. It is useless to think too much now. The results will naturally be seen after the release.

The employees ended the chat and returned to their jobs. The actors continued to shoot after they were in place.

Tan Yue is not the only one who pays attention to the movie "Around the World Travel".

Beijing, the General Administration of Culture Building, the director's office.

After the filming of "Around the World Travel" was completed, Tianjing Entertainment Company immediately sent the news and related materials to Ye Wen's secretary. Ye Wen started to look through them carefully after the meeting, and then watched the interview of the completion of "Around the World Travel" on the Internet.

This will be the first Chinese film to be released worldwide simultaneously, and she takes it very seriously.

Ye Wen was very happy to see that Zhang Baihao was more confident about the film in the interview. If the first film can achieve a good result, it will also be an encouragement to others.

Ye Wen carefully read the entire news report and gave up the idea of ​​contacting Zhang Baihao. The film has just been completed, and post-editing will take some time. Some questions can be asked later.
