Chapter 188 Attitude Issues (44)

Regarding the quality of "Sword of Immortality", Shen Xudong is still somewhat sure!

Not to mention anything else, he really admired the working attitude of these directors.

Especially Liang Shengquan, many times he personally helps the actors in scenes - he is very involved and even cry...

Mak Guanzhi is more willing to personally help the actors adjust the angles, that is, he personally acts as the lighting replacement...

By the way, this seems to have happened in the original time and space - someone scolded me for my makeup photos...

I don’t remember how Tang Ren responded, but Shen Xudong knew that Tang Ren was so confident after finishing "Sword of Immortal" that he organized more than 200 game fans to watch the first two episodes together.

After watching it, a game fan asked Brother Hu on the spot why you looked so handsome in the drama, but so average in real life? Are the makeup photos too ugly?

Also, the rumored drama was criticized one-sidedly when it aired...

Not true!

It should have been complained about halfway through the broadcast. The complaints were mostly about the love triangle between Jiu Jianxian, Qing'er and Juggernaut. In fact, "Sword and Sword" had just started airing and the title song came out, and Hu Ge's freezing shot suddenly Come on, everyone is going crazy~ They all say this is Li Xiaoyao!

Therefore, Shen Xudong asked Cai Yinong to call the media to clarify the matter.

It’s Sina Entertainment.

Shen Xudong did not hesitate and said directly: "First of all, Yao Zhuangxian and I personally decided on Brother Hu. We both think he is Li Xiaoyao..."

"Secondly, netizens question why celebrities are not used. I would like to ask why newcomers cannot be used. All actors have their first time, and all stars come out after their first opportunity. Moreover, after days of trials, Regardless of the investors, producers, or even publishers, no one has objections.

In other words, Li Xiaoyao was played by Brother Hu, which was a joint decision made by everyone!

Some netizens are just here to find fault without even watching the clips, so don’t make rash judgments. "

"I will upload some stills to everyone later...it's better for everyone to draw conclusions after watching the stills!"

"Zhao Ling'er found Liu Yifei, whom I asked Mr. Cai to invite. Only if she plays Zhao Ling'er will everyone be convinced..."

"I wrote the script based on her appearance. Of course I know who is the most suitable!"

"Everyone will wait and see, I am very confident in "Sword of Immortality"!"

Then a reporter from Sina Entertainment asked him: "I heard that you are going to collaborate on a new movie with director Chen Musheng?"

"…How did you know? Has this project been made public?"

"It's been made public...Wu Kebo from Chengtian has made it public!"

"...Oh, it's called "Hold the Call", a script I wrote, a police action movie..."

Well, Sina is obviously more interested in the movie than Sword...

Yes, working with a Hong Kong director is a big deal!

I asked a lot about "Hold the Call"...

After the interview, even Cai Yinong came over to ask Shen Xudong about "Hold the Call". He was very worried that Shen Xudong would suddenly show up...

"Director Chen Musheng is working on "New Police Story". We occasionally talk on the phone and talk about the script..."

"...The filming of the movie has started early, at least until "New Police Story" is released!"

Cai Yinong nodded...

Then several directors also came over and asked questions intentionally or unintentionally.

How should I put it? Hong Kong’s film and television industry is not big, and people who make movies and make TV shows overlap.

People like Johnnie To and those like you came from TVB, but...making movies feels better than making TV!

Moreover, Chen Musheng is a director in his prime. "Who Am I" and "New Police Story" all starred Jackie Chan...

Unexpectedly, Shen Xudong actually contacted Chen Musheng...

I only knew he was talented before, but now...

I had to take a high look!

The actors probably also received the news. During dinner in the evening, Hu Ge specifically asked about it.

Shen Xudong didn't say much, but just briefly introduced the plot of "Hold the Call", and then added: "It's just a police film...it takes place in Hong Kong, and Hong Kong actors should be cast..."

After speaking, he glanced at An Yixuan and Liu Pinyan: "Why are you sitting so far away?"

Brother Hu's expression was instantly awkward...

"...I'll tell you! I'll tell you!" An Yixuan spoke before them: "Lao Hu stepped on shit today!"

"...Shit?"

"No, it's human feces!" An Yixuan responded: "And after he rubbed the soles of his shoes on the grass, the director told him: 'Why don't you rub it farther away? You will have to lie down on this grass later!' Haha..."

"...Tsk, tsk..."

Shen Xudong also stays away from him...

Brother Hu quickly defended: "I'm just unlucky, it's not a big deal!"

"Isn't this a big deal? Is it a big deal when you eat it?"

Liu Pinyan frowned: "...You are so disgusting...I won't eat it!"

Several people laughed, including Peng Yuyan...

Oh, Peng Yuyan was added to the dining team.

This group of actors is quite miserable. They don't have much money. The agency pays half of the salary of several thousand yuan for a single episode. Shen Xudong takes them to eat together when he has something to do, but...

Shen Xudong looked at them and suddenly asked: "...why don't you bring Liu Yifei with you?"

"She... is too young..."

"It feels like we are not from the same world!"

"...She is a big name, we are not!"

Well, Liu Yifei actually doesn’t pay much attention to "Sword and Sword 1"...

In other words, Aunt Liu doesn't pay attention to it. Liu Yifei is often late. The reason for being late is simply sleeping in...

Shen Xudong was quite angry. No wonder Lao Hu would tell Guo Degang on the show later, "My relationship with Liu Yifei is not as good as you think!" ’

Including the behind-the-scenes part, the director also joked that Liu Yifei was acting like a big name...

This is a big deal!

There was a little awkwardness at the scene, so Brother Hu quickly changed the subject: "...I read media reports and said that the idea for "Hold the Call" came to you after watching the movie "Cell Phone"? Is it true?"

"...Yes, I just thought of a person who received an unknown call asking for help, and then I thought of "Hold the Call"..."

An Yixuan looked impressed: "You can think of a script after watching a movie?"

"First we have this idea, and then we work backwards, why not call the police, why we must keep talking, how to end it... After a series of things are sorted out, the script is ready!"

Brother Hu asked: "...What about the script of "Sword of Immortality"?"

""Fairy Sword" is an adaptation of a game, and the general framework has been established. What I was thinking about was how to fill 35 episodes without being conventional... I happened to be studying "Tao Te Ching" at that time..."

After the dinner, Shen Xudong paid the bill, and everyone went back to their rooms...

After returning to the room, the more Shen Xudong thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. It was he who invited Liu Yifei to join the crew. What she did now would not only affect herself, but also make Cai Yinong feel that he was unreliable!

Need to talk to her...

After thinking about it, I dialed Liu Yifei's phone number. They exchanged a few pleasantries first, and then started scolding: "Can you sleep less and don't keep the crew waiting for you!"

"Then I can't get up!"

"Old Hu can get up, but can't you? You are a professional actor, and acting is your profession. After you receive this money and take this job, you must do it well. You know what time the director team meets every day. Are you tired? You want to sleep, but they don’t want to sleep? "
