Chapter 69: Wu Jing (4/5)

Mr. Lu is also a well-known director in the industry, and he has directed and acted in four movies, and "Source Code" is the fifth.

The actors who work with them are varied.

He summed it up by himself, in fact, most actors want to act well, especially newcomers, who work hard to express themselves!

Speaking of which, insert a small story: It is said that during the filming of "Su Qier", there was an extras named Meng Jiyang, because he wanted to win the attention of director Yuan Heping, he actually picked up a big stone and smashed the crew's imported camera lenses worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. Meng Jiyang said that he was really "unwilling to be buried in many extras", so he had no choice but to make this decision. But the next decision was exchanged for four years in prison...

It's good to want to express yourself!

But you can't be so reckless...

Speaking of Mr. Lu, after so many years of shooting, he understands a truth: sometimes talent is really something that can't be replaced by hard work!

Especially acting, to stand out, you must have talent.

Effort can take your level from bottom to top. But if you don't have talent, maybe you can't go from the middle to the top.

It's a question of class!

But hard work does have an effect, and for most commercial films, the qualified acting is responsible for the audience.

Lao Liu is really working hard!

For example, when filming "The King of Kung Fu", she learned pipa, equestrian...

Filming "Source Code", because of the different camera positions, a very simple plot needs to be played back and forth several times, and every time I do my best...

Later generations also rarely saw her selling miserably on Weibo.

It's a pretty good actor - the original words of the auxiliary.

Lu Xiaoran was quite satisfied with her.

As for the appearance...

No matter how good-looking a girl is, in my eyes, it's all floating clouds - Lu Xun!

......

Wu Jing has been very unhappy lately!

After "Big Man", he thought that he had successfully opened up the way to play, but it turned out that he was basically a supporting role with soy sauce.

Especially "New Shaolin Temple"...

Such a good subject, shoot that hanging sample!

I'm about to shut myself up!

It's time to think about the path you should take!

Last year, he filmed a TV series - "I Am Special Forces 2: Knives Out"

In order to perform the authenticity of the special forces in the TV series, I deliberately went to the Nanjing Military Region to experience life for a month...

At that time, he had the idea of making a movie about Chinese special forces...

But he felt that if he shot now, he might not be able to shoot what he wanted, and...

He has a crazy idea - to run the military region to experience life for a year, he must condense the spirit of the Chinese special forces, and it is better to be a soldier than to be a soldier!

His agent Huang Baigao thinks he is crazy - "Big Man" is very popular in Hong Kong, "Kill the Wolf 2" is preparing to set up a project, and this time Wu Jing is the absolute protagonist!

Wu Jing insisted on going...

Huang Bai angrily scolded him on the phone for being a 'decrepit boy'!

Lao Huang doesn't have a son, he really regards Wu Jing as a son, and there is a group photo on his desk, which was taken when Wu Jing and Huang Baigao first met...

But Wu Jing still wants to engage his special forces...

Who can be firm in their thoughts?

Lu Xiaoran!

......

In the No. 3 studio of Qingying Studio, Lu Xiaoran had just finished today's shooting, and was helping the staff pack up the props, when someone behind him called him: "Director Lu!"

"Old Wu, why are you here?"

“... Doesn't bother you, does it?"

"Today's shooting is over!"

"Can we have a meal together?"

"Of course. Lu Xiaoran looked at his clothes: "You wait for me to change my coat first, this is in the play..."

Wu Jing followed him to the dressing room.

"I went to see "The Great Gold Robbery"!"

"How does it feel?"

“... It's a bit unexpected, I really didn't expect Ning Hao to make a movie like this!"

"It's normal, any commercial film director who matures has to go through this process!"

"How?"

"From simple plot weaving, gradually shift to the mainstream business narrative structure, trying to return to the mainstream narrative, shaping characters, analyzing human nature, to be popular, and more popular, only popular will a large number of audiences pay, otherwise, it will always be just a niche carnival!"

"Mainstream narrative?"

“... I just can't win by surprise anymore, it's too risky to go sideways..."

The so-called mainstream narrative is to tell the story normally, and not play any multi-line narrative...

That's what most directors who started out in independent production, Nolan, Quentin.

"The Great Gold Robbery" was released for five days, the box office exceeded 100 million, and the reputation was good.

Orange's first shot of the new year has begun!

......

Bistro, private rooms.

"You want to shoot a military theme? This is a good thing, I have a hundred supports, lack of funds... I've got it all!"

, "Wolf Warrior?? 》...

Wu Jing smiled bitterly: "... I have to serve in the Nanjing Military Region for more than a year..."

"Why?"

"I'm thinking that it's better to be a soldier than to be a soldier, and I haven't experienced where life comes from?"

Lu Xiaoran nodded: "It's true, but... More than a year is terrible!"

"The military theme does not have the life of the army, and it is difficult to shoot decently!"

"Okay, you go, you know me, I make friends is to make friends! I'll put my words here, wait for you to come out, no matter what movie you want to make, invest in me!"

“... Thank you!" Wu Jing raised his glass: "This love, brother has written it down!"

Lu Xiaoran also picked up the wine glass and drank it all: "Is there anything sleepy?"

"There is no difficulty, it's Lao Huang's side, I can't explain it, he gave me a lot of scripts, and I pushed them all..."

"Cork is high... Okay, if there are any dramas that Sun Entertainment needs to find in the mainland for distribution in the future, I will also cover it!"

"Really?"

"Of course, I absolutely mean what I say!"

"Then I'll give Lao Huang a call..."

Sun Entertainment's main promotion is Gu Tianrao's works, Rakuzai's output is amazing, and it maintains three to six released works every year, with losses and gains...

Anyway, Orange is only responsible for the distribution, and it doesn't hurt much.

No, Wu Jing went to experience life, what should I do with "Big Man 2"?

Yang Qing's script has been written, and it is still the story of Sun Dasheng fighting the boss, this time it involves the dealer, and Sun Dasheng goes deep into the tiger's den...

It doesn't seem like much, but this script is very realistically written, involving sensitive content such as institutional villages, umbrellas, etc...

Yang Qing visited the south, received a lot of first-hand information, and then quickly completed the script.

got up and gave Wu Jing a glass of wine: "Old Wu, when will you join the army?"

"Maybe in the second half of the year, I still have "Big Man 2" to shoot!"

Teacher Lu was embarrassed: "... I thought you were going to push this off..."

"How is it possible, this script is so well written, I definitely want to act!"

Lu Xiaoran suddenly thought of something: "By the way, Brother Jing, do you want to buy some of our company's original shares?"

Tsk, the titles have changed...

Wu Jing asked curiously, "Can I buy it too?"

"Of course, you signed the director's contract with us..."
