Chapter 429: Douqin
Little Yellow Croaker Media.
"Mr. Tian, we regret missing the last movie, but we must participate in this project, let's put aside the friendship in college, and follow the rules of our workplace, okay?"
A lean-looking, dark-skinned man in a suit said in a somewhat urgent tone: "Let's talk about the price, you open your mouth, say the number, okay?"
Tian Xingde looked at the college classmates in front of him, and said with some embarrassment: "Zhang Hao, it's not a matter of price, your products don't meet the content of our new movie......"
Zhang Hao's face was wrinkled, "Mr. Tian, do you still take the previous things to heart?" After so many years, it was me who was not good at the beginning, I shouldn't have robbed you of Dai Xue, but ......"
Tian Xingde's face was solemn: "Zhang Hao, don't talk nonsense, Dai Xue and I are ordinary classmates, we are all adults, don't force your speculative picture to be reality, that's too naïve!"
In the end, when Zhang Hao left Tian Xingde's office, he still did not negotiate the cooperation he wanted to achieve.
In the living room, Zhang Hao looked at the bustling investors in front of him, some of them were happy, some were sad, but overall everyone's eyes were full of hope.
This made him even more irritable.
Thinking about it, he felt that Tian Xingde was still worried about the grievances when he was jealous in college, otherwise, why is the cooperation of other companies acceptable, but not his own company?
For a while, Zhang Hao was depressed to death.
But he didn't want to think about it, how can you, a pork seller, place advertisements in "The Pianist at Sea"?
Movies are not TV series, and the content of excellence is impossible to waste every shot casually.
In the past two days, the door of Little Yellow Fish Media and Xinyuan Film and Television Production has been about to be stepped on, since Liao Yuan announced the new film project, the entire Southeast Asian entertainment industry has attracted attention, and everyone is discussing whether there is a connection between this "Pianist at Sea" and "The Unspeakable Secret".
Subsequently, when "The Pianist at Sea" began to advertise and solicit investment, some investors throughout Asia, and even in Europe and the United States, waved banknotes and stepped through the door of Liao's Group.
Although today's Liao Group was officially established, the office location is still in Xiaohuangyu Company, and even Xinyuan Film and Television Production is still working at the original address, which makes Liao Yuan even more eager to lease a new office building.
As a result, the crew did not refuse to accept the advertising placement of investors who met the specifications, and soon gathered tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of funds, and in addition to advertising investment, some companies in the circle frequently contacted Liao Yuan, wanting to join the production of this film and train their own actors, and some actors were even willing to lower their salaries to act.
Liao Yuan is not an elm pimple, he is satisfied with this, personally interviewed a few good actors, and signed it at a very cheap price.
Now, the funds are ready, the props, and the set are also ready, and soon, the movie will be filmed.
In addition to continuing to use the original cast of "The Unspeakable Secret", the entire crew of "The Pianist at Sea" continued to use the original cast of "The Secret That Can't Be Said", and with the approval of Liao Yuan's license, he also joined his sister Liao Meiqi.
Of course, Liao Meiqi once starred in "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Essence of the Ancient City", and has a certain acting foundation, so it is not considered to be gilded, Xiao Meiqi is really here to give full play to her own socialist core values.
The film took nearly a month to prepare, and it is planned to be filmed for more than two months, to be completed in November, and to be submitted for review by December.
According to this planned itinerary, "The Pianist at Sea" is very likely to participate in the Spring Festival schedule.
However, according to the urine of the previous Spring Festival theaters, a slightly monotonous film like "The Pianist at Sea" is not suitable for the atmosphere of the Spring Festival, so it is very likely to be released in advance or after the year.
Lin Weiyin still serves as the heroine of the film, playing the role of a woman who fell in love at first sight in 1900, it is worth mentioning that there are not many emotional scenes in this literary film, so Lin Weiyin's role is not very heavy, but she is important and cannot be ignored, and she is the key figure in 1900's life.
In addition to the heroine, there are five most important supporting roles in the whole film, one is the adoptive father of 1900, the second is the trumpet player, the third is the popular pianist who fights with 1900, and the fourth is the owner of the musical instrument store.
For these four roles, many film and television companies fought hard in the open and in secret, and finally digested the scripts of these four characters and injected a lot of investment into the whole film.
Of course, there is an equally important juvenile version of 1900, and in order to find a teenager with a similar appearance to Liao Yuan, the crew issued a search mission for the whole country, but it was unsuccessful for two weeks, and finally found a twelve-year-old boy with a similar appearance to Liao Yuan in Japan, "Qiu Tingyuan", although the language barrier, but the parents of the Japanese teenager still agreed to their son's appearance.
Liao Yuan's popularity in Japan has skyrocketed because of "The Secret That Can't Be Said", and even people in the industry who are not in the music industry know a thing or two about Liao Yuan.
Because of his resemblance to Liao Yuan, this Japanese teenager is also quite popular in school, which greatly satisfies the vanity of the teenager, and because of this, he also fell in love with the piano as an instrument, and has also specially studied music in the past year.
After everything was ready, at the end of August, "The Pianist of the Sea" officially announced the start of filming.
The huge cruise ship docked at a pier near Hong Kong and Macau, bustling with thousands of crew actors gathered here under the arrangement of the crew, and Liao Yuan was ready to shoot here.
This time, as always, he not only served as the starring role of "The Pianist at Sea", but also took the initiative to provoke the director's beam, in the interval between the filming of the cruise ship at the pier, he also privately taught the Japanese teenager Qiu Tingyuan some performance skills, and took the initiative to communicate with Qiu Tingyuan in jerky Japanese.
When he learned that Qiu Tingyuan wanted to be the future Japanese version of Liao Yuan, Liao Yuan was very surprised, he encouraged the child, but in his opinion, this Qiu Tingyuan obviously missed the best learning time, but he found that Qiu Tingyuan's musicality was very good, and he could make up a good melody along a few prominent tones, which can be regarded as having some foundation to become a composer, maybe he can really make a living from it in the future.
Because of the success of "The Tuner" and "The Secret That Can't Be Said", Xinyuan Film and Television Productions is very confident in the establishment of "The Pianist at Sea", coupled with the shooting experience accumulated earlier, the crew has been very mature in all aspects, so the shooting went quite smoothly.
Soon, halfway through the filming, the plot came to the piano fight.
The black man who plays the popular pianist is an actor specially invited by Liao Yuan - American pianist Sean Wilder.
Sean once performed eye-catching in the Elizabeth Piano Competition and won the runner-up, which is already Liao Yuan's defeat in reality.
But this person seemed to be very open-minded after the competition, and when he learned that the project "Pianist at Sea" needed a black performer, he not only immediately asked the company to take over the role, but also specially prepared his own original music for this plot.
You must know that when 1900 fought with a popular pianist at sea, he perfectly copied the other party's performance, and only listened to it once, which highlighted 1900's talent extremely amazingly.
"Liao, do you need to practice?"
Sean had a cigar in his mouth, looked at Liao Yuan jokingly, and when he said this, the corners of his mouth went up, and his smile was a little playful: "I think you are the real-life version of 1900, aren't you?"
Because of this sentence, the entire crew that was in the process of filming instantly quieted down from the hustle and bustle.
Some of the crew showed dissatisfaction on their faces, but many more had excitement on their faces.
At this moment, everyone looked at Liao Yuan, who was sitting in the director's chair, and vaguely felt that something big was going to happen next.
