Chapter Seventy-Eight: What's the Situation?

In the midst of cheers, the crew quickly cleaned up the scene and put the equipment and props back into the warehouse.

Zhao Lei took two people to take inventory, and the rest of the people came to the hotel near the film and television base.

There is a start-up banquet at the start-up, and there is naturally a finale banquet at the finale.

Tang An sat in the box with the actors, producers, and team leaders, and directly made a big table, and almost the 20th person just sat down.

Zhao Lei was still taking people to take inventory, and the banquet was not opened first, and everyone sat together and chatted casually.

The atmosphere in the hall outside the door is also very warm, although I don't want to shoot for half a year like some blockbusters, but the intense shooting of up to a month and a half is really tiring enough.

Now the string that was tight in my head could finally be loosened.

In the big box, Tang An accepted everyone's praise with a smile.

It didn't take long for Zhao Lei to finish his work and come.

"Then let them serve the food, everyone will rest early after eating, it has been hard for everyone for more than a month!"

Tang An said and opened a bottle of liquor, poured himself a glass, raised his glass and looked around, and said sincerely, "Thank you for your hard work during this time, it took me more than a month and a half to complete the second movie in my life, not much nonsense, it's all in the wine!"

After that, Tang An drank it all!

"Director Tang is polite!"

"That's what we're supposed to do!"

"It's still Director Tang's leadership, otherwise it wouldn't have gone so well!"

"Director Tang is so bold, then let's do it too!"

...

Everyone hurriedly filled themselves up and drank a glass one after another.

"I also see everyone's hard work during this time!"

Tang An said and nodded at Xu Ruoyun, she immediately took out stacks of red envelopes from her bag and handed them to Tang An.

"This is a little bit of my heart, there is not much money, everyone is under it!"

One person took a red envelope, and the inside was all the same thickness.

"After the movie is released, if the box office is okay, I will definitely give everyone a bigger red envelope!"

"Thank you, Director Tang!"

"Director Tang is too polite!"

After a month of hard work, I got the salary I deserved, I also earned some extra money, I got a red envelope, and then there was a bonus.

Tang An's words immediately made them forget about the only dissatisfaction they had before.

Money, that's the fuck up!

The people who got the money were even happier, and it was not lively to push the cups and help the lamps.

...

Tang An looked at Xu Jinglei and asked, "Old Xu, this film is finished, do you have any plans for the future?"

Xu Jinglei smiled and nodded, "I have an idea!"

"Oh, or are you going to continue to be a director?"

"After watching these two of your films, I also wanted to make a movie with women as the main characters. ”

"Some time ago, I revisited the Godfather, and I thought of Wu Zetian, and I plan to make a "Female Godfather" to tell the story of Wu Zetian's step by step to the pinnacle of power!" Xu Jinglei explained.

This film?

Tang An didn't react for a while, and the movie about Wu Zetian in his memory had to wait until more than 10 years later for Fan Binbin to act, when will another one come out.

However, Tang An suddenly remembered that Xu Jinglei had a project that ran aground in the past two years, it seems to be called "Days in the Palace", is this one?

"It's a bit difficult to shoot costume films, and where do you go to find a suitable actor?" Tang An then asked.

"I'm going to play it myself, what do you think?" Xu Jinglei smiled.

"Then are you still busy, this kind of costume blockbuster is not so simple, there are too many things!"

Tang An shook his head, this project is not stranded for no reason, with Xu Jinglei's current directorial level, it is obviously not enough to direct and act in a costume blockbuster.

Then I listened to Xu Jinglei talk about the general idea, Li Shimin corresponded to the old godfather, and died after laying down a piece of the country.

Li Zhi is the eldest son and the legal heir, but he voluntarily gave up his rights because his personality was too gentle and benevolent.

Wu Zetian corresponds to the youngest son of the godfather, who is the farthest away from the center of power, but has become the target of public criticism.

Good idea, sounds interesting.

However, if you shoot like this, unless the acting skills of the three leading actors are off the charts, otherwise you won't be able to hold up the whole drama at all.

Tang An didn't hit him either, anyway, he would put it on hold later for various reasons.

However, Lu Yi and Deng Chao listened to them with relish, obviously still very interested in the female godfather.

"Old Xu, you want to be the Al Paxiruo of Huaguo!" Lu Yi sighed.

Today, they are still filming together, and in a blink of an eye, people began to discuss being a director to make a movie, which is really incomparable.

"Then who is going to play the godfather?"

"I think Uncle Daoming is very suitable, his temperament is even more flavorful than Marlon Brando!" Sun Li interjected.

......

After the final banquet, everyone drank some wine, and there were no other activities, so they went back to their rooms and rested.

After taking a shower, the drunkenness dissipated a little, and I felt a lot better.

Tomorrow, the film will be sent to the base for development, and after the negative film comes out, the glue will be transferred to magnetism and the post-production work will begin.

When he first wore it back, Tang An thought that in this era, he was still editing with primitive methods, cutting the film with scissors, gluing them together with adhesive strips or glue, and then watching the effect of editing on the editing table. If there is a problem, cut it open, glue it on, and repeat it constantly.

After all, Tang An is also a wild man, and he is also ignorant of the development of film history, and he was still working as the lowest handyman in the crew at this time.

Later, I learned that in this era, it was already possible to convert film to magnetism and then edit it on the computer.

......

Early the next morning, Tang An went to the set to take a look, and it was almost packed, and he told Zhao Lei to hand over the equipment and the base, and send the boxes of film to the base for printing.

Xu Jinglei said goodbye to Tang An and also left the base.

Lu Yi and Deng Chao packed up their things and left, and before leaving, they also expressed their desire to continue to cooperate.

Even if the crew is disbanded, unless there are any scenes that need to be reshot later, it will be basically difficult to reunite.

With a sigh of emotion, Tang An left the base and prepared to go to China Film to discuss distribution and publicity.

However, as soon as I walked to the gate of the base, a group of reporters rushed to this side in front of me, and they happened to bump into each other.

"It's Tang An!"

Someone shouted, and the reporters immediately quickened their pace and hula surrounded them.

What's the situation?

What are you looking for me?

I'm not in trouble!

"Director Tang, Lu Chuan said yesterday that you will encounter Waterloo this summer, and the movie can't even recover the cost, what do you think?"

"In the face of domestic and foreign blockbusters this summer, do you think you can create a miracle again?"

"Director Xu Ke said in an interview that "Seven Swords" will definitely win the champion of this year's summer file, and the box office will exceed 100 million, do you think "Horror Cruise" has any strength!"

Xu Ke said that "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is the biggest opponent of "Seven Swords", and even praised "Initial D", without mentioning "Horror Cruise" ......at all.

...

Listening to their chaotic questioning, Tang An understood what was going on.
