Chapter 401: I started looking for actors without a script
"Come on, come on, I'll give you a drink. ”
At the wine table of the party, everyone chatted happily.
The movie "Farewell My Concubine", as well as everyone in the crew, is a "reunion" situation.
The impact of the film as a whole, including now receiving six nominations, is something that all the crew members are very willing to see.
And now, all the people involved in the entire crew have benefited a lot from this.
Investors, Lin Bao's side is needless to say.
Among the other members of the director team, several people who were originally transferred from the Tang Dynasty were already well-known in the field of literary films, and after filming "Farewell My Concubine", they became even more famous, and they were more and more valued in the Tang Dynasty.
Photographer Yin Chuan is even more.
He has a strong professional level, but he has never been able to find a good opportunity, and he has been doing wedding shooting, which is simply buried in talent. After that, after shooting two MVs on Lin Bao's side, this time he served as the photographer of "Farewell My Concubine", and the credit and ability in it were also very obvious.
Therefore, he was even signed by Zheng Rong when "Farewell My Concubine" was filmed and became the first director of Lin Bao's studio.
After "Farewell My Concubine", because there have been no other film projects on the studio's side, he has been on the Tang side, following some film projects.
The other crew members, now with their resumes of participating in the production of "Farewell My Concubine", are now in China, and the more mixed up the better.
Needless to say, Yu Chenghao has really embarked on the road of king. Lu Yuan has also initially gotten rid of the name of traffic, and recently, he has been constantly arranged by remote entertainment to play some roles that reflect his acting skills. Many other actors are now receiving plays one after another, whether it is a big role or a small role, in short, they are all on their own career paths, and they are getting smoother and smoother.
"Senior, how are you doing, are you busy?"
After toasting each other, Lin Bao and Yu Chenghao sat together and chatted.
"Okay, lately...... News, you know, right?"
Yu Chenghao looked at him.
"Does that mean you've taken ten movies in one go?"
Lin Bao looked at him with a smile and said.
Zheng Rong told him about this before.
Yu Chenghao has become a popular actor in "Farewell My Concubine" with the role of Cheng Dieyi. And under the arrangement of his brokerage company, basically, most of the focus of development has been placed on film and television, and he has taken on a lot of roles.
It has been rumored that Yu Chenghao is connected to ten movies, and he is simply a filming maniac.
In this, there is a compliment to him, and of course, there is also some ridicule.
However, Lin Bao knows that perhaps, the brokerage company behind him has some commercial considerations, but with Yu Chenghao's character, he will definitely not make some bad movies.
Listening to Lin Bao's words, Yu Chenghao couldn't help but smile helplessly: "There are not as many as those spread outside, only seven." ”
"Seven isn't much?"
Lin Bao couldn't help but say.
"It's seven in total. ”
Yu Chenghao hurriedly explained, "In the past six months, there has been a movie, which you also know, and it has now been completed." Next, there will be two films filmed at the same time, and the remaining four are just talking, and the real filming will have to be next year. ”
Lin Bao nodded.
In fact, a film project is not as simple as uploading or publishing music.
The entire film project, from the script, to the project, to the final release, has too many complex and uncertain factors in between.
The average cycle of domestic films is more than two years.
In other words, the movie you're watching now was most likely shot two years ago, or even earlier.
The previous "Farewell My Concubine", the whole project went down, and it took more than half a year, not counting the waiting period and release before the release, it was already very fast. Because of the script and filming, Lin Bao is basically confident, and the review and approval of the project are basically green lights all the way.
And next, the studio's "Ice and Fire" project does not rely on Lin Bao to control the rhythm alone. They don't have their own team and technology, and the entire project plan is very long, according to Zheng Rong, it will start broadcasting in two years, which is already the most optimistic statement.
This is not something that can be solved by manpower, it is entirely because of technology, and it can only get here.
Therefore, it is very reasonable for Yu Chenghao to receive more than seven film plans now. After all, he is so popular now, and there are several moreover, which are not the main characters.
"Senior, you are now open in terms of music and movies. ”
Lin Bao looked at Yu Chenghao and said, "Film and television song Sanqi, now, if you lack a TV series, you can really be crowned the king of heaven!"
Yu Chenghao hurriedly bowed his hand and said modestly: "Don't don't, what a heavenly king, I'm only ...... now Hmm, what do you mean?"
He suddenly realized something, and looked at Lin Bao: "What projects do you have there?"
Lin Bao said with a smile: "There is indeed a plan. ”
"TV series?"
Yu Chenghao asked hurriedly.
Lin Bao nodded.
"It's not going to be your "A Song of Ice and Fire" TV project, is it?"
Yu Chenghao looked at him in surprise.
Lin Bao smiled: "In "Ice and Fire", there are no oriental characters, right?"
"I also say ......"
Yu Chenghao also breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment just now, he even thought that Lin Bao would let himself play "Ice and Fire". Even, in his mind, there was a flash in his mind about which role he could play. But it turned out that there were no Oriental characters in it at all.
However, he didn't have the opportunity to act in "Ice and Fire", so he was naturally slightly surprised in his heart.
Although I don't know much about the establishment of TV series projects, but now, basically, anyone who knows Lin Bao and his book knows that the project of "Ice and Fire" is definitely a big project, and even a big project to benchmark against Hollywood. It is said that even the authorities attach great importance to this project.
If you have the opportunity, you can get involved...... Yu Chenghao is naturally very excited.
However, it is clear that there is no character for him in it.
"Do you have any other projects in your studio?"
Yu Chenghao hurriedly asked again.
"Ice and Fire" didn't have a chance to participate, but if Lin Bao really had other projects, he would naturally participate.
Produced by my own junior brother, they are definitely high-quality products.
No missing shots!
He knows this very well!
"There is indeed a project, a TV series project. ”
Lin Bao said, "I don't know if you're interested, senior?"
"Of course I'm interested!"
Yu Chenghao said, "I don't know what TV series it is, modern city, or something else?"
"There's no script story yet. ”
Lin Bao looked at him and said with a smile.
"Huh? won't ......"
Yu Chenghao looked at Lin Bao and couldn't help but be happy.
He had heard that there was a script for the actors, so it was the actors first, and then the script. But Lin Bao didn't even have a script story, so he started looking for actors, and it was the first time he heard of it.
Do you want to tailor one for yourself?
Yu Chenghao doesn't think so.
Lin Bao definitely doesn't look like such a director.
"Now there is indeed a project, and the specific story has not yet been determined, however, it may be a costume film, or it may be the emotional direction of the modern city, which has not yet been determined. However, if you have the time yourself, you can try it when the time comes. ”
Lin Bao said.
The project he was talking about was actually the next major project of the studio.
The operation cycle of "Ice and Fire" is too long, at least two years.
In the next year, the studio will definitely run other film and television projects.
This project is actually related to the cooperation with He Chen of the Galaxy Network this time.
The gradual takeover and operation of the galaxy network is also not enough to rely on one "Ice and Fire". Moreover, the direction of "Ice and Fire" is not the direction of the online article.
In fact, content production and IP development are equally important in the operation of the entire web text.
This is also the consensus of Lin Bao and He Chen.
Content production is independent, and then support the operation, this is a change in the direction that He Chen wants to do within the galaxy network in the future, this change and impact is long-term, and it is not suitable to save the current galaxy network that is declining in all aspects.
To save the galaxy, we still have to start with IP development.
Before, the defeat of Galaxy Network was lost in IP development.
In the past two years, at least in terms of film and television projects, Yinhe.com has not made good enough projects.
Therefore, the result of Lin Bao and He Chen's discussion is to launch an IP development work in a short period of time. This work, first of all, has to be the direction of online texts, which can help Yinhe.com and begin to reshape the benchmark of online text adaptation.
This is likewise a project of at least one year.
However, this time the project, although the direction of the subject matter is not certain, there will basically not be too many special effects and other industrial problems, so if there is a script and a team that can come up with enough trust, Lin Bao still hopes to be able to take out the drama of this project in about a year.
As for mentioning this matter to Yu Chenghao at this time.
First, he really wants to give such an opportunity to his senior.
In addition, when the time comes, the schedule of the entire project will definitely be very tight, so I also want to be able to make an appointment with Yu Chenghao in advance.
"Don't worry, even if you arrange it over there, I will definitely be on call here! Even if I default on other projects, I won't miss your drama!"
Yu Chenghao patted his chest and said.
"Don't worry, you won't be embarrassed by your seniors. At that time, after the program starts, you will contact your seniors at least three months in advance. ”
Lin Bao said.
"Then it's no problem at all!"
Yu Chenghao said with a smile.
The whole crew gathering, which lasted for more than three hours, was basically over at nine o'clock in the evening.
A few people were more drunk, but none of them were so drunk.
Relatively speaking, this kind of party, compared with other crew gatherings, is still very comfortable for everyone.
Even if they asked Lin Bao to toast one by one, everyone didn't have too much embarrassment.
Before leaving, I still told them one by one to make an appointment to go to Los Angeles together.
The Oscars are presented a month later.
On the crew's side, basically some important members are going back, at least, the nominated ones are going to go.
However, for such an opportunity, other members of the crew also want to go to the scene to see it in person.
Although it will definitely not be able to enter the door of other people's ceremonies at that time, it is also very meaningful to feel it outside.
So, after a while, basically except for some things that really can't leave, everyone has agreed to go together.
Guo Yunfan, as a producer, naturally welcomes everyone to do this, and even arrogantly charters round-trip tickets for everyone.
In the next month, the domestic discussion about the nomination of "Farewell My Concubine" has continued.
Under the auspices of various official and unofficial activities, the crew also carried out many live activities again.
Even Lin Bao participated in three more activities after that crew gathering.
It has been March and the Oscars are getting closer and closer, and everyone's excitement and anticipation are getting stronger and stronger.
Even, even the news that Lin Bao's new book "A Song of Ice and Fire" was published and officially launched failed to cover such a popularity.
The physical book of "A Song of Ice and Fire", the domestic version was officially launched on March 1.
The studio, including the three publishing houses involved in the production, has spared no effort to promote it.
However, even with the blessing of fame like Lin Bao's new book, after the beginning of March, the Internet popularity for a week was still suppressed by the news and discussion of the Oscar nomination.
Zheng Rong looked at the data that the "big knife" and they sorted out every day, and she also felt a headache and wanted to laugh helplessly.
Since I joined Lin Bao's studio, for such a long time, especially in the past two years, relying on Lin Bao's popularity and excellence, the publicity and topic popularity of the studio have basically never lost.
If one day, the first hot search is not related to Lin Bao, it is because Lin Bao has not made any moves recently.
And once Lin Bao or the studio has a move, it will basically soon occupy the first place in the hot search.
And this time, the studio, Zheng Rong, including all the studio members, felt "frustration" for the first time, after all, this physical book publishing project is an important foundation for the subsequent film and television development, so it is still very important. However, he was suppressed by another news from his boss.
But fortunately, although the popularity has not reached the top, the domestic sales of "A Song of Ice and Fire" are very optimistic.
In recent years, the situation of the domestic publishing industry has basically been declining year by year.
However, after the physical book of "Ice and Fire" was launched, the sales on the first day still exceeded the highest number of copies sold in a single day of the previous "Actor".
And in the next few days, sales still maintained a high level.
There is no doubt that in China, under such a big industry trend, "A Song of Ice and Fire" is likely, or even determined, to become a hit again.
The sixth day of the hit "A Song of Ice and Fire".
Early in the morning, in the dimension where the magic capital is located, you can just see the sun rising, and Lin Bao is already sitting on the plane to Los Angeles, the United States.
accompanied by Zheng Rong and other important members of the studio, core members of the crew, and other other members of the crew who are willing to go to Los Angeles.
Even, including Han Yiyi's girls in the store.
According to Lin Bao, anyway, there is a financier who asks for air ticket money, and if he doesn't go, he won't go in vain.
Sitting in his seat, waiting for the plane to rise, Lin Bao closed his eyes from the window.
Then, he pulled out his notebook from his bag.
I opened the word, thought for a while, and typed this line on it:
"Reflecting the ice and snow in the world, the dark fragrance and the floating song are near the river, the heroes of the world are all over the road, and there is Mei Lang on the left side of the river. ”
