Chapter 896: Reloading and Setting Sail

The emotional scenes between Michael and Sarah were slightly criticized in the early stage. It was not until Michael saved her when the prisoners were smashing and destroying that they were back on the right track.

A female doctor who has been in prison for many years has seen many prisoners of all kinds. She is not a saint, and she does not have the idea of ​​saving the suffering. She was easily led by Michael into a love net where she herself did not know where the future lies. This is reflected in the script rather palely, which also makes Nina a little unsure of how to act. She still acts in the way of idol dramas. The emotional scenes that are not many in the first place are even less likely to show the reasonable development of the relationship between the two.

Facing a beautiful woman, Chen Hao will also have more energy when performing. Who would not like to appreciate beautiful things? In an elegant coffee shop, listening to music and drinking mellow coffee to read the script must be twice the result with half the effort; if it is changed to a dark and dirty alley next to garbage with unpleasant air, it is difficult for you to get twice the result with half the effort in such an environment.

The missing part in the script can be understood as the plot does not allow the two to have much time to develop emotions. Chen Hao can only understand that Michael is a truly charming man. Not only in appearance and temperament, but also in rich knowledge. When investigating Sarah, he also has to add some of his understanding of this woman's preferences. After entering, he has limited time to face her and cater to her preferences in the most perfect way.

The two have a lot of rival scenes, one after another, but each scene is very short, which makes the performance very valuable. Chen Hao has opened up all his own charm mode to play Michael, including a confident smile in the implicitness. Michael is not an ordinary prisoner. Seeing too many prisoners will also lead to a problem. Once a truly excellent elite appears, the contrast will be stronger.

Nina's several small distractions have contributed to something that is difficult to express in the character. Sanford kept shouting good. What he wants is this unique attraction and your curiosity about Michael.

Why does such a man come here?

He is very good, different from most people here.

He shouldn't be here at all. He should be dressed up and appear at the elite cocktail party, chatting and laughing. If I met him at that occasion, I would definitely be attracted to him, right?

After filming a few scenes, Sun Honglei and other actors felt that the two of them would not really feel the same way during the filming. In the United States, this is normal. There is no relationship that must be established. Some intimate scenes are filmed a few times. If the actors feel the same way, they will not mind having a real fight in private. It's nothing, just a beautiful memory of a night between each other.

Sun Honglei is a traditional man in his bones, and he is also the big brother. He feels that he needs to remind his little brother that you have such a good girlfriend, don't make trouble, or he will not be able to end it.

After a scene, Nina took Chen Hao to have lunch together. The two sat side by side, chatting and laughing. They were of similar age and had common topics. Even the crew and investors were willing to see such scenes. They also planned to ask the media to make some gossip when the time was right. This is the most traditional and effective way to promote many TV dramas. Didn’t you see that before the filming of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", Christine’s appreciation for Chen Hao was reported in an interview?

"My friend is looking for me. Let’s talk later."

Nina’s eyes were filled with a little nostalgia and unconcealed charm: "The hotel I live in is not very good. How about yours? If the conditions are good, I will move there too."

"Very good, you can ask your assistant to take a look first."

"Okay, when we study the script and act together, it will be more convenient."

At this point, it is actually a more straightforward invitation. I like you, I think you are handsome and charming, and I hope to have further contact with you.

Chen Hao smiled and said nothing more. He was pulled aside by Sun Honglei and said to him seriously: "Haozi, why didn't your girlfriend come to visit you?"

Chen Hao looked at his elder brother and smiled brightly: "Brother Honglei, there is no need for us to be like this. Just say it directly if you have anything to say."

Sun Honglei glared at him: "You still want me to speak directly, don't you know what's going on? If something really happens, I promise that the media will not have to investigate, and the crew will definitely be the first to add fuel to the fire."

Chen Hao patted the outside of Sun Honglei's arm: "Brother, do you know why I almost never attend any cocktail parties and activities outside?"

Sun Honglei tilted his ear, looking like he was all ears.

"A bunch of slips of paper with phone numbers, and the doorbell of the hotel where I live will be rung no less than 30 times at night."

Sun Honglei understood what he said and nodded: "Haozi, you are an understanding person, I won't say more."

"Brother, I know you are doing this for my own good, I know what I am doing, and I won't let them take advantage of me easily."

Sun Honglei was happy: "You little brat, you only know how to talk nonsense, the "Tang Dynasty Twins" you supervised is about to be broadcast, will you go back to promote it?"

Chen Hao shook his head: "No, time is tight and the task is urgent, "Youth" is about to enter the promotion period, I can't support the broadcast of Datang by hand, now we have done what we should do, whether it works or not, let the market test and the audience judge it?"

……………………

Prison Break was filmed in full swing. At first, the producers planned to finish the first season and schedule it in the autumn to compete with various American dramas. However, during the filming, the decision was changed. The four episodes directed by Sanford were immediately put into post-production and then released directly.

Although American dramas and movies each occupy two major schedules, with the development of the industry, the exclusive schedules of each can no longer meet the output of products, especially since American dramas are no longer in the mode of about twelve episodes per season, which makes it less important to seize a certain time point.

Prison Break is planned to be broadcast in April, and various productions have already begun.

At the beginning of the new year, Chen Hao began to be busy. The first two months were busy with the awards season. In late February and March, he began a busy shooting season.

First, Youth, then Prison Break. The Legend of the Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty, which he served as the chief producer, will also be officially broadcast in China. At the same time, the nominations for the Hong Kong Academy Awards were released, and the awards promotion began. Chen Hao was in the Prison Break crew and accepted the promotional photos and publicity interviews taken by the Hong Kong media.

The nominations for the Golden Horse Awards continued. Mad World nominated him for Best Director and Best Actor, and The Warlords and Wolf Warriors 3 nominated him for Best Supporting Actor. Both Mad World and The Warlords became candidates for Best Picture. As for the Academy Awards, many acquaintances called Chen Hao and asked him to come back no matter how busy he was to support the Awards.

Although the Golden Horse Awards and the Academy Awards were held consecutively in the past few months, Chen Hao's status is completely different. He is the winner of the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. He currently plays the leading role in a movie with an investment of over 100 million US dollars and plays the leading role in a big-budget American TV series. His personal movie salary has reached tens of millions of dollars, and his personal TV series salary is 1.5 million US dollars.

In other words, in China, no crew, whether it is a movie crew or a TV crew, can afford him, just like Jackie Chan and Jet Li back then. Unless they lower their own prices, they can't afford him with the largest investment in China.

Although he is a nominee and will almost certainly win some awards, no one thinks that this is a reason for him to be there. The only best reason is for you to come and support Chinese films.

His schedule was full all of a sudden. His busy life left him no time to have any private contact with Nina. In the crew, the two sides were still as warm as before. Some media also reported this news, but there was nothing substantial. The audience didn't buy it very much. They always hyped up the male and female protagonists. They have seen too much. Unless the media took something that can be called solid evidence, otherwise this news will have limited effect unless it is widely covered.

The crew of "Prison Break" changed the director, but the filming was still normal. The actors slowly got used to each other and found their form. A system with Chen Hao as the absolute core of the performance was also formed. All actors had a clear perception that if there was MOUSE in a scene, the things they shot must be better than the scenes without him.

The post-production has been partially completed, and it has been confirmed that it will be released in North America in early April. The promotional video has been made and has begun to be promoted in an orderly manner. The purpose of inviting Chen Hao has also been achieved. The film has not been broadcast in the United States yet, but several major video websites in China have sold the broadcast rights at a sky-high price.

After the release was confirmed, the shooting became tense, and some overtime work began. Everyone can understand that if it cannot be completed, it will be a disaster for everyone. Chen Hao also took the most professional attitude and took the initiative to shoot more. He has the most scenes and shoots from morning to night every day. Sometimes it is switched to night shooting and shoots all night.

In the busyness, the gong sounded in China and the "Tang Dynasty Twin Dragons" started broadcasting. It will be broadcasted every day during non-prime time. Such a choice can be called a challenge. All the senior executives of Lele Yanjing headquarters gathered in the conference room. This is a major strategic deployment of Lele in the next few years or even more than ten years. Success or failure is a big deal. Only by sitting here and witnessing the broadcast and the audience's reaction in person can they feel a little relieved. When Lele went public, they were not so nervous.

After the prime-time TV series was finished, a ten-minute advertisement was played, and with a very visual prologue, "The Legend of the Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" officially met with audiences across the country.

The first scene was a blockbuster-like scene of Yu Wenzhi standing on the Wuya warship. Compared with text, film and television dramas can show the scene vividly. The effect produced by film technology, coupled with a miniature version of the "battleship" built in an abandoned seaside shipyard, was very shocking, and it suddenly broke away from the audience's impression of the shoddy five-cent special effects in the domestic TV drama industry, which made many viewers who were just watching casually suddenly excited.
