Chapter 808: Crew Preparation
Maybe because the script is not bad, at least Huang Bo and others have received positive feedback after reading the script, so after waiting for a few days, the actors selected by Luo Xun have expressed their intention to sign contracts one after another, and the crew of "Scorching Sun" began to prepare......
The news quickly spread in the industry.
Luo Xun's first attempt at the Trinity sparked a collective discussion in the circle, in fact, people are not surprised that Luo Xun took this step, but everyone didn't expect it to be so early: "I really started playing Trinity." ”
"I don't know how it turned out. ”
"It is said that many companies have the intention of investing, although the strokes are not big, it is estimated that they are all going to Luo Xun's fame, as far as Luo Xun's current influence is concerned, a large number of audiences will pay for whatever he shoots, this is the value of first-line movie stars, otherwise why would the actors sharpen their heads and want to be on the front line, not to mention that he is still the number one position in the first line today. ”
"How many actors are envious of him. ”
"If you think that Luo Xun only has a first-line fame and influence, you are very wrong, because he has far more than that, don't forget that he can also write screenplays, from movies to TV series, the works of screenwriters signed by him are often not bad, I believe this is also one of the other reasons why investors are interested in him, people have always been very talented. ”
"Indeed, he is a genius. ”
"In fact, from the moment he decided to be a director before, I guessed that sooner or later he would have to try Trinity, a person who can write and act, and who has also studied directing courses abroad, how could he let go of the opportunity of Trinity, but his "Wolf Warrior" has not yet experienced the market test, and it is not clear whether he really has enough directing strength, otherwise those investment companies would have already broken through for investment quotas. ”
“......”
As discussed in the industry.
Luo Xun released the news that he was going to try the Trinity, and there were companies interested in investing in the back, excluding the inappropriate, for most of the investment, Luo Xun would certainly not choose to turn away, movies are often the product of mutual cooperation between multiple companies, he can't say that he relied on silver and white to independently produce "Scorching Sun", far away, he will not say, just distribution and publicity, etc., he must have a special person to be responsible.
Then again.
Fame is the best guarantee after all, why there was no investment when filming "Wolf Warrior" before, in fact, it is also because the starring role is Wu Jing instead of Luo Xun, although Wu Jing is not famous, but he has not yet reached the peak of later generations, and he is not a first-line movie star, plus Luo Xun, a pure and cute new director in charge, is naturally not favored by investment companies.
It's as real as that.
If the current Luo Xun didn't rely on the fame of "Journey to the West" to rise sharply and be promoted to the most popular first-line, just because he wanted to play a trinity with his non-first-line identity, then no one cared about it was a norm, and the nobody here didn't really care about anyone, but that the really powerful companies in the circle wouldn't make a move, and it was some miscellaneous troops who were interested in Luo Xun's seemingly unreliable project.
In short, there are a lot of curves.
Luo Xun is very annoyed by this, but fortunately, it is the producer's business to contact the investor, and Luo Xun does not have to worry too much, but even so, Luo Xun still has a lot of things to worry about, such as conducting on-site inspections before filming, which is a job that he can't hide from as a director.
......
It is not troublesome to set up the crew, and some of the staff who have cooperated with "Wolf Warrior" before, some of them are skilled in business, and they can be directly pulled to the new crew to use, and the producer is responsible for contacting these people.
Luo Xun's producer is called Hu Pan.
This Hu Pan is also the producer of the previous "Wolf Warrior", the head of the Yinbai film and television production department, which is Luo Xun's descendant of Luo Xun, although Luo Xun's new film has company investment, but Luo Xun himself is still the majority of the investment, so the producer is also his person, in a sense, his crew must be decided by him, the producer is also his subordinate rather than the existence of the director, if nothing else, Luo Xun's films will also occupy the majority of the investment in the future.
The days that followed.
Luo Xun drew the storyboard script while discussing with the producer on his own needs, he is a person who is afraid of trouble, but at the same time he is very contradictory about being a director who does everything in detail, so in the preliminary preparation process of the crew, his participation as a director is very high-
It's true to be afraid of trouble.
It's also true that you don't run away.
The crew has been in the stage of laying the foundation since the beginning of the preparation period, if some preparations are blurred now and feel that they are not so important, then there will be problems when filming, Luo Xun suffered some losses during the filming of "Wolf Warrior", this is his second time as a director, he has matured a lot, and he will no longer be led by some unnecessary losses.
This is called eating a trench and growing wisdom.
When drawing the storyboard script, Luo Xun also took the lens language into account and the story, and communicated with friends, such as Zhou Xingchi, Ning Hao and others, these are directors he is more familiar with and more powerful at the same time, and it must not hurt to ask them for more advice, anyway, Luo Xun has always positioned himself as a director of Meng Xin, and there is no such thing as not being able to let go.
And so it was until the end of December.
The crew has made preparations, Luo Xun's storyboard script has finally been completed, the actors have successfully signed contracts with the crew, and the troublesome preparations in the early stage are 80% completed, and there are some things in the back that Luo Xun doesn't have to stare at in detail, and there will be professionals to handle it for him.
It's also at this time.
Luo Xun began to have time to focus on this year's Spring Festival, although there are no works starring or directed by Luo Xun in this year's Spring Festival, but don't forget that this year's Spring Festival file has movies written by him and accounted for the majority of the investment:
Thai embarrassment!
Now that "Thai Embarrassment" has entered the publicity stage, the combination of Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, and Wang Baoqiang is not bad, although these three people are still far from being as brilliant as in their previous lives, but the audience popularity has accumulated very well, and the theater also attaches great importance to this film, and gave a good evaluation after watching the film, defining it as a family carnival type film, this kind of film review is often very in line with the cheerful tone of the Spring Festival, and it is conceivable that the Spring Festival schedule will not be too bad.
Propaganda is led by Xu Zheng.
But Luo Xun, as a film investor and screenwriter, of course, also has to shout for the movie, so he attended several film promotion activities, worked hard to help with publicity, and also forwarded the happy trailer of "Thai Embarrassment" on Weibo, and with his spare effort, this movie finally entered the field of vision of most people!
