Chapter 860 Chapter 160
When Han Shunzhang, Huang Ge, and Bai Yujing walked over, they separated from the crowd, and it seemed that there was basically no quarrel.
But Master Yang, who was in charge of props for the production crew, was still arguing indignantly, "This is not bullying! This is all checked by the production crew and approved, and now let me redo it! I will take a share of the money, this time Repeatedly, and no salary increase, who can bear this! Director Feng, I didn’t say that you made it right from the beginning, how can you go back and find it again and again in the middle?”
The people in a circle outside all looked at Feng Bicheng.
Huang Ge, Han Shunzhang, and Bai Yujing squeezed in, just in time for Lao Yang's words to fall to the ground, and couldn't help but look at Feng Bicheng like everyone else.
At this time, Feng Bicheng didn't look angry at all, and he didn't have the attitude of "what I say is what I say, I don't want to fuck off" that directors tend to form naturally on the set. At this time, On the contrary, there was a calm smile on his face, and he said: "It's my fault, thank you for your hard work, do it again, just as I said just now."
He doesn't take over!
And in the final analysis, he is still the director of the crew, and the crew is dozens of people large, and in the final analysis, they still receive their wages from him! At this moment, no matter how much you despise him morally, even if you trample him to the ground in your heart, and rub your toes back and forth, in front of your face, he asks you to do something in a soft voice, you still can't force him Hold it up—hold it up hard, and something will really happen!
So at this time, Old Master Yang couldn't say anything more, so he murmured impatiently, "Oh... okay, okay, I'll try to do it for you again! Let me say it first, I don't necessarily have you If you can't handle the skill that you have always asked for, don't pick it up, just take it easy!"
Feng Bicheng responded with a smile, "You are always Mr. Li personally signing into the company, and you are the props for many of the company's plays. You can't make mistakes in the work that comes out of your hands! You can't make mistakes!"
He even puts on top hats!
Now, Lao Yang couldn't say anything at all.
Moreover, being selected by Li Qian back then, he was signed into the film and television department of Minghu Culture, and he was also one of the three leaders of the props group. It was indeed one of Lao Yang's most proud things in recent years. Now, as the scale and momentum of Minghu Culture grows bigger and bigger, Lao Yang brags to everyone he meets, saying how awesome he was back then, Mr. Li caught his eye, so what, anyway, blah blah blah blah—this is his itch!
A scratch, accurate hit!
Of course, this is Feng Bicheng. If it were another director, he would be a contracted prop master, like "I'll just take a share of the money, who can bear to look back and forth like this over and over again" and so on. If you borrow his courage, he wouldn’t dare to say it—not to mention a domineering director like Jin Han, even if Zhao He has a good temper, and Sun Yuting is a young girl, if he dares to speak like that, he will definitely go back straight away , Maybe just one phone call and he will be fired immediately!
To put it bluntly, your props serve the director. If the director changes his mind and asks you to make new props, then you have to do it—you earn this hard money!
But in fact, when he turned his head and saw Han Shunzhang and Bai Yujing coming over at this time, even if Lao Yang wanted to mutter a few more words, he didn't dare——when he saw Han Shunzhang at first glance, the original sternness on his face , It disappeared immediately, and quickly changed into a smile.
Han Shunzhang is the veteran of the Minghu Culture Film and Television Department. Let’s put aside the matter. He simply talks about his life and work. He never deliberately establishes any prestige. Well, he is silent and down-to-earth in doing things, and his earnestness has never been underestimated. Especially the people in these departments who have been directly under his hands for several years, such as props, drama management, etc., are naturally timid in front of him.
At this time, Han Shunzhang saw that the conflict seemed to have subsided for the time being, so he said: "That's enough, it's time to eat and eat, it's time to rest for a while, don't watch the excitement, let's go!"
Not loud.
But as soon as he said this, the people on the third floor and the third floor around the scene just walked away consciously. Han Shunzhang said hello to Jing, but Han Shunzhang ignored him, pretending not to see him, and Bai Yujing was even more lazy to pay attention to him.
After everyone dispersed, Han Shunzhang walked over.
Feng Bicheng looked at him with an embarrassed smile.
The two stood facing each other, Han Shunzhang bowed his head for a moment, then raised his head, and said, "You are the director and producer, you have the right to fire, fine, deduct wages, whatever."
Feng Bicheng laughed when he heard this.
Bai Yujing was watching from a few steps away. She could hear Han Shunzhang's words clearly, and she could also see Feng Bicheng's smile and expression. Come, it seems that there is an indescribable honesty and simplicity.
"Hey, there's no need! The wall is down and everyone pushes it, don't blame them!"
Han Shunzhang looked up at him, walked away without saying a word.
Bai Yujing shrugged and walked away.
Huang Ge walked over instead.
The two have been friends since Huang Ge first entered Minghu Culture. Both of them grew up in Shuntian Mansion, and they both like to play. Yes, it's solid.
At this time, Huang Ge went over, took out a cigarette, and handed him one.
Feng Bicheng took it, lit the fire in Huang Ge's hand, took a puff, and spat it out.
After Huang Ge himself lit it, he took a puff, spit it out, and thought about it for a long time before saying: "You said you...why bother you!"
Feng Bicheng smiled, "Men, if you make a mistake, you make a mistake, and if you lose face, you will lose face, but we can't be cowardly, right? What should we do? We can get up from where we left off!"
Huang Ge scratched his head while smoking, "It's not easy to climb!"
Feng Bicheng laughed, "You have to climb too!"
Hearing this, Huang Ge rubbed his head, "You said you... If you had the energy you have now two years earlier, you would have done it long ago!"
Feng Bicheng smiled, but didn't speak.
Huang Ge turned to look at him, and suddenly said: "It's just...is it a little bit late?"
Feng Bicheng turned to look at him.
He said: "You are a director after all, you should have the skill and dignity you should have!"
Feng Bicheng smiled, shook his head, then looked at Huang Ge, and smiled calmly, "No, there is Manager Han! With him around, no one dares to really mess around! At best, everyone sees me as a piece of mud, so step on it if you want !"
Huang Ge pursed his lips and looked at him.
He smiled brightly, "It's okay, we're not afraid of this! Anyway, we've reached the bottom of the valley, and we've seen everything! Real gold has to be refined by fire! The Sun Monkey who has emerged from the gossip furnace is the Monkey King! "
After a pause, he was silent for a moment, then his voice suddenly became low, and he said, "Now that I think about it, my dad was right. If you want to do things, you have to be a man first!"
Huang Ge nodded silently.
…………
A series of events that happened in the crew of "Big Wrist" finally reached Li Qian's ears.
However, if you know it, you know it. Li Qian listened silently, without saying a word.
Originally, his work in the second half of the year was extremely heavy and complicated, but now he threw the whole play of "Big Wrist" to Feng Bicheng, and then threw Han Shunzhang over to help keep an eye on him. He completely followed what he told Feng Bicheng at the beginning. Do - don't care! Do not ask!
"You're going to screw it up! Then screw it up!"
…………
In mid-September, the Minghu Culture Film and Television Department officially approved another TV series this year and started preparations.
After Lu Lingxi got the script, she hesitated for less than a week before finally nodding her head in agreement——"Carrying Love Through to the End", Li Qian's screenwriter, producer, and producer, she will be the director!
This will be the first independent directorial work in her career.
A TV drama that is youthful, inspirational, romantic, and full of literary style, in another time and space, was once popular all over the country, and made many first-line stars popular.
In this time and space, the social background is slightly different, but Li Qian's script has also been moderately adjusted according to some characteristics of this time and space, from character setting to story development.
Therefore, in the face of such a script with style and good storytelling, Lu Lingxi's heart longing to direct and create by herself, no matter how deeply buried she is, she cannot suppress it when she sees this play. Living.
Even the male and female protagonists and a supporting role are readily available in the company. With Li Qian's book, the actors will be happy to participate in this play, so she can let the director choose her.
For the lack of special supporting actors, you can go to Shuntian Drama Club to find someone. Anyway, Minghu Culture has always had a good relationship with there over the years, and there are several contracted actors who are also rehearsing there at the same time, and... Lu After all, Lingxi is also a major in Shuntian Film Academy, and she was the director of the photography department before. With this background, she is not far behind in human face alone!
After more than half a month of intense preparations, on October 14th, the crew of "Carrying Love Through to the End" was officially announced——
Producer, Supervisor, Screenwriter: Li Qian.
Director and Producer: Lu Lingxi.
Producer: Lu Bin.
Assistant directors: Zhao Ming, Chen Kefang.
Art direction: Zhao Ming.
Director of Photography: Yang Jie.
Actor, Zhou Zhiyu, heroine, Qin Jingjing.
As far as the current Minghu culture is concerned, because the current main direction of development has begun to shift to movies, this configuration can be regarded as an upper-middle configuration for TV dramas. After the crew was announced, people on the Minghu Culture Film and Television Department only look at the composition of the crew. I just knew that Director Lu deserves to be Mr. Li's teacher, and he has a lot of face!
…………
Throughout October, Li Qian devoted most of his energy to the preparation of "The Matrix".
The script was written a long time ago, and it was not only registered in China, but also registered and applied for protection with the Screenwriters Guild in Hollywood.
Otherwise, although this time and space has never heard of such a pair of wonderful brothers (or sisters) in the American film industry, but when they are not guaranteed, this book and the idea will be snatched away—— — Never underestimate the artists of this time and space!
Overall, "The Matrix" created a trend in another time and space.
It's a sci-fi cloak, and it's well draped, beautiful, and meant to be, but at its core it's a movie that sells all kinds of cool action and fights.
But, again, his coat is so well draped that it seems to have begun to break away from the category of pure commercial films. Compared with ordinary commercial blockbusters, it has more aftertaste and more interesting things. Something for people to discuss, and to ferment and improve the word-of-mouth of the entire film.
Of course, it is absolutely impossible to simply sell its sci-fi cloak. In the final analysis, if you want to make it well, you must first respect the fact that it is a commercial film.
And as a business aspect, its core is one word - cool!
The world structure of the story is cool, the costumes of the characters are cool, the fighting is cool, and the camera is also cool!
But to shoot these cool things, to shoot these things well, the preparatory work in the early stage is far from "My Sassy Girl" or "Once Upon a Time". Even the slow work of planting a large sorghum field in advance for the filming of "Red Sorghum" seems a bit inferior compared to its preparation.
At present, the level of the special effects department of Minghu Culture is already at the upper-middle level of Hollywood, so there is no need to worry about doing special effects, but special effects are too expensive. In order to save a little money, Li Qian can use props to realize the picture. Still prefer to use props.
Therefore, this requires a long preparation period.
And actors also need a relatively long time to prepare.
The leading actor in this play is what Li Qian has already decided in his heart, "Huang Feihong", Zhou Baoshan.
At the beginning, the intention to make this "The Matrix" was at least 30% because of the desire to make Zhou Baoshan, the "Emperor of Kung Fu", an international superstar. So this is completely out of consideration.
As for the heroine, although there was some short-term hesitation, but after much deliberation, I still think it is the most suitable for He Yingyu. First, she is currently the most authentic and popular actress under Minghu Culture, and second, she has already filmed. Two blockbusters, the temperament of the blockbuster is the best, so the third time... She and Fu Hongxue are still in a rivalry, and she is at a disadvantage. Since it can help her move up a step, then it's better to move up a step!
Moreover, Cheng Suping is too stable, Bai Yujing is too classic and beautiful, Liu Yan, Zhao Qing, and Jiang Yiyi's acting skills are too tender, Qin Jingjing is barely suitable, but her temperament, although she has an indescribable hardness, is a bit majestic It’s not too cold, but it’s not cold enough—from this perspective, He Yingyu is really versatile! She can act unruly and cute, she can also act pure and innocent, and she can also play uniform and glamorous.
As it happens, "The Matrix" is cool to play.
Others may not be able to handle it, or they always feel almost meaningless when they come out, but she... Li Qian firmly believes that as soon as she puts on a black windbreaker and puts away the smile on her face, she can immediately become a cool hit girl!
So, done!
It's just that before the official shooting of the movie, she has kung fu in her body, and Zhou Baoshan, who has already made two kung fu movies before, still needs to receive certain pre-shooting training.
It's okay to say how to play cool, most of it is the work of martial arts guidance, Zhou Baoshan can only participate in it and contribute a little opinion. The actors of the gun shots must have received professional firearms training in advance.
Moreover, this is stipulated by the state government and the Ministry of Public Security - if you want to be like Hong Kong in another time and space, when the filming starts, you can just hold props and pretend to shoot. In China in this time and space, it is impossible to even think about it. of.
Of course, although the preparation of "The Matrix" must have taken up a lot of Li Qian's time, he did not let go of the progress of "Calabash Baby".
With the polishing, correction and repair bit by bit by the technicians, the static 360-degree image of the gourd doll has been basically completed, although... the ink-wash style processing method still seems a bit awkward to Li Qian , and the method of displaying the ink painting style through computer virtualization is actually still in the early stage of exploration, but anyway, this first animated film is still in the process of steady progress.
Then, time passed by little by little without knowing it, and Li Qian's various tasks at hand were steadily advancing—no matter whether you look forward or backward, you will feel that time passes really fast !
In November, as expected, Minghu Culture received an invitation to participate in the Berlin Film Festival, and then, Li Qian took some professional personnel to the United States to inspect his own company after acquiring a small film company. A film company that has been formally established.
Also, negotiate with John Dess about the global distribution of film works produced by Minghu Culture in the future.
At the end of November, "Big Wrist" was officially completed.
In late December, "Carrying Love Through to the End" was also officially announced.
At the same time, Minghu Culture officially announced that it will jointly invest in the American Oriental Dream Film Company to shoot a science fiction blockbuster, which will be jointly released by the two companies and released simultaneously worldwide. By then, it will most likely become the first domestic film to be released simultaneously globally.
Then, after New Year's Day, Minghu Culture once again announced that the pre-production for the film has been completed, the crew has been officially established, and the film's title has been officially confirmed as "The Matrix", with a total investment plan of 70 million Chinese yuan. Actor Zhou Baoshan, heroine He Yingyu, director, Li Qian!
As soon as this configuration came out, it immediately caused a sensation in the entire Chinese entertainment circle.
With "Once Upon a Time", Zhou Baoshan is now popular, and "Once Upon a Time in China" has entered the promotion period, his appearance rate is very high, and He Yingyu needless to say, the two most popular in China today One of Xiaohuadan, plus the director is Li Qian, it is still an extremely rare sci-fi film in China, and it is also a Sino-foreign joint investment, joint distribution, global simultaneous release, etc. This movie is so topical that as soon as the name of the movie came out, it immediately became the focus of heated discussions.
At this time, just after the Lunar New Year, and "The Matrix" hadn't officially started filming, Li Qian had already taken the main crew of "Red Sorghum" and flew to Berlin by plane.
