Chapter 525: The One Who Approaches Ink is Black
The filming of "The Martian" is slower than expected, which will have some ripple effects, Zhang Zhonghui has to adjust his schedule, which will further affect "Million Dollar Baby", but it is still only a small problem.
The real key point is that the publicity of this drama has been carried out since Beijing Blu-ray and several partners announced the "five-year science fiction plan".
Online forums, new media activities and offline realistic materials, advertising and more popular science into the campus, these early and not in line with the mainstream rhythm of the Beijing Blu-ray convention have made this drama fall into a situation where it is difficult to choose the schedule.
It will take a week for the completion of the simple actor's role, the post-production of special effects in the film may take New Year's Eve, and the editing of the subsequent release version still needs to leave time, so the suitable schedule for "The Martian" is basically the Spring Festival file.
This is a little different from the previous consideration of choosing one of the three from Christmas, New Year's Day, and the Spring Festival, and there is already definite news from the Guy Film Bureau that there will be an American movie released in the Christmas file, and the Spring Festival file is tentatively set as a quota for two imports.
Regardless of the Christmas file for the time being, "The Martian" will face pressure from domestic and foreign films during the Spring Festival.
Now all domestic film companies are gearing up for such a rapidly growing big schedule as the Spring Festival, but they don't care whether the Beijing Blu-ray is the catalyst for the growth of the schedule.
Opponents, opponents, only opponents have such an identity, and there may be opponents who will be intentionally taken care of by other domestic film companies.
As for foreign films that come across the ocean, there is nothing to say about that position.
Therefore, Gan Jingting understands Zhang Zhonghui's worries, and then, let him worry.
How old are you, do you still have to seek comfort from your own words?
"Lao Zhang, why haven't you recorded the song I sent you?" Gan Jing faced Zhang Zhonghui without greeting at all, and directly changed the topic.
Zhang Zhonghui and Gan Jing have been together for a long time, and now they are on the thief ship, knowing that this thing is probably too lazy to respond to his own words, he shook his head a little helplessly: "I've been so busy lately, how can I have time to practice singing? ”
"Ha, there's no way, it's the other side to make the first move. Gan Jing waved his hand and walked around the set.
The filming set of "The Martian" is different from the rest of the crew, and the most obvious thing here is the green screen hanging high and the machine, as well as the trendy model in the corner.
"Is this a model of a Mars rover? How many other things have been made?" Gan Jing reached out and touched the prop model, the tentacles were cold, and it was metal instead of plastic.
"Yes, Director Gan, this is the prop for the final victory of our campus publicity, and it has been interviewed and filmed. It's just a shell, and it's empty inside. Uh, it can't be said to be empty, put the counterweight so that its wheels will have rut marks when they press against the sand. The prop master explained.
Gan Jing nodded, and studied around the prop car in the center, as a layman, his biggest feeling was that it was very good-looking.
"Forrest Gump, I still have to go to the desert set in Inner Mongolia tonight, Xie Yu and they have been debugging for more than a week, if the scenes over there don't go well, I will join the group of "Million Baby" later. Zhang Zhonghui followed.
Gan Jing smiled: "I know this, it's okay for you to be late, I can shoot the other shots first." ”
"I heard Xu Feng say that this scene has to do nearly 500 special effects shots, and it is relatively difficult, so there is a problem in the progress. Zhang Zhonghui is the starring role, and during this period of time, in addition to practicing the basic skills of non-physical performance in the face of the green screen, all that remains is to understand the special effects of the movie.
Now that he saw Gan Jing, the producer, coming to the crew for the first time, he had the heart to express his enthusiasm for the results.
"Do you know that we have to do color balance in this play? The location survey images have to be consistent, the sky of our earth is different from that of Mars, and our is too blue. ”
"The shooting in the Kubuqi Desert in Inner Mongolia is a high-resolution map taken first, and the post-processing combines different scenery into a full CG version. ”
"Come on, come on, you look at the equipment here, it's used to do fluid simulation, the sandstorm on Mars has to use this thing, advanced, right? I haven't seen it before, right? The high-end goods purchased by the brilliant special effects, they said that if it weren't for a five-year plan, they wouldn't have spent this money. ”
Zhang Zhonghui pulled Gan Jing to look at the equipment arranged around the green screen, with some pride and pride on his face, which is a display of technology and sweat up and down.
Gan Jing nodded slightly, and praised repeatedly: "Yes, yes, it's right to let you come this time, right? I learned a lot of new knowledge, right? This is the trend in the future." ”
"In addition to not having much rivalry, except that it is boring to face the green screen all day, in addition to the need to constantly adjust and restart, I have really learned a lot. Zhang Zhonghui replied steadily, "It's not like a certain producer, who eats empty salaries and is very comfortable." ”
"I'm also filming, and when I go home from work every day, I sometimes have to watch the special effects samples given by Xu Feng and give feedback, eh, if it weren't for a certain star who came out to do the studio by himself, how could I use such hard work to do anything sci-fi plan. Gan Jing sighed.
"Then I still misunderstood you? I'm going to shoot in the desert tomorrow, and after a week of hard shooting, I have to come back to watch people boxing, and I have to be busy with the wedding immediately after boxing, hard, hard. Zhang Zhonghui sighed.
"Hard work pays off, King of Science Fiction?" Gan Jing laughed.
"Also, how hard is it, the boss of the actor?" Zhang Zhonghui also laughed.
In a blink of an eye, the two people changed from a small mutual scolding to smiling and praising each other, and the people next to them looked stupid, is this the style of these two actors when they meet together?
The visit continued, but Gan Jing's arrival did not have much impact on the crew of "The Martian".
Director Xie Yu has been in Inner Mongolia to shoot on the spot for special effects, which is directed by Xia Yan and special consultant Xie Jiang, and the first cooperation between the two is somewhat unexpected.
Gan Jing walked around for a long time, and when Xie Jiang was not busy, he privately asked him why he cooperated with the young generation of female directors in China so tacitly, who knew that the old man gave an answer that sounded quite disdainful.
"She's a female director, and I'm too lazy to bother with her. ”
"Don't you think Xia Yan is very good? Isn't that where the inheritance of the next generation of directors lies?" Gan Jing asked.
Xie Jiang raised his eyes and looked at Gan Jing in surprise: "Shouldn't it be you?"
Usually serious people suddenly said this, and immediately added a buff that doubled the effect.
"Lao Xie, you, hey, it's too straightforward. Gan Jing smiled like a flower.
Xie Jiang nodded slightly, and continued: "Well, after chatting about you, I have to talk about my son, Xie Yu's performance in this crew surprised me, I never found out that he really had some unique ideas about movies before, it was really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves." ”
Lao Xie turned out to be not straightforward...... It's tactful.
Gan Jing was surprised first and then sighed, Lao Xie, why did you, a famous domestic director with thick eyebrows and big eyes, get black with Zhang Zhonghui's unserious ink closer?
