Chapter 201: Gavin and Jay

There is a line in "La La La Demacia": There is a man behind him, mighty and domineering, called Jiawen IV, known as Zhou Jielun.

I don't know if it was from this time that the prince began to be nicknamed Zhou Jielun by gamers. It is said that game fan Chou Dong once wore a mask to go to an Internet café to play lol, and heard someone shout that Zhou Jielun was coming, and thought he was recognized, but it turned out to be Jiawen IV.

Regarding the relationship between Dong Chou and the "Fourth Elder Brother", when preparing for the construction of the crew of "Male Soldier Company", Lu Lin really didn't think about it.

Unexpectedly, a reporter who is also a fan of the game said directly when he asked: "Hello Director Lu, may I ask if there is a role of the prince of Demacia in this movie?"

"Yes, the main characters in the film are Galen, Jiawen, Zhao Xin, and Nuo Shou"

"I don't know if Director Lu invited Jay Chou to participate? Riot's designer admitted on Twitter that he referred to Jay Chou's image in "Golden Armor" when designing the prince, and if he could invite Jay Chou to participate, I believe there will be more game fans to support this movie!"

Lu Lin's heart moved when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your proposal, we will seriously consider this point!"

Because the original idea was to use virtual actors, motion capture and CG special effects to complete this movie, so in terms of the main creative lineup, except for Lu Lin, there is not a big-name star!

The advantage of this is that you don't have to worry about the actors' salaries, but the disadvantages are also obvious, there is no all-star lineup, and Lu Lin relies on Lu Lin to carry the topic traffic during the interview.

The new film press conference ended quickly, Lu Lin and other main creators moved to the set, put incense on the table for the pig's head, and lifted the red cloth on the camera, and the ceremony was over.

The reporters dispersed with the fares, and the fans were reluctant to leave the set. Lu Lin only arranged for the crew to be familiar with the equipment and environment, and did not shoot for the first time.

Because although the optical motion capture technology is mature and accurate, the cost of the full set of equipment is very high, and the debugging before use is also super troublesome.

For example, in the Hollywood blockbuster "Rise of the Planet of the Apes 2", the crew only used 8 motion capture actors to deduce the entire orangutan tribe.

This may sound like a lot of money, but it's quite cumbersome to shoot. When there are dozens of cameras on set, each reflection point on the actor's mocap suit is different in the position of each camera. Correcting the parameters of each camera is a complex process that typically takes three to four hours. Just touch it casually and everything will have to be recalibrated again.

The time is already noon, and everyone will finish debugging the equipment after eating, and it is estimated that it will be time to get off work, and everything must be going well. So today I just let everyone get acquainted with it, and the specific shooting task is scheduled for the next day.

Since the machine is turned on and enters the group, it is a box lunch under normal circumstances. On the first day, there was no exception, Han Shanping and the representatives of the two TV art centers were also "sharing weal and sorrow" with the crew, and one person received a boxed lunch, and tasted two bites at random in a reception room of the China Film Digital Base, while talking about the press conference.

"Director Lu, the prince character in the game is really similar to Zhou Jielun?" Han Shanping was a little puzzled.

Lu Lin smiled, "It's like a god!"

Han Shanping's eyes lit up, put down his chopsticks and said: "Then you can think about this matter, please ask Zhou Jielun to play the prince, not to mention anything else, at least when it is released and promoted, there are many main creators who can pull on the stage, and it is not up to you to stir up the news hotspots throughout the whole process!"

The representative of Haizheng also said: "It's true, Zhou Jielun is very popular, and I read that in the script, Cheng Yaowen doesn't have many scenes, and there are not too many requirements for acting skills!"

Lu Lin said: "These are not problems, the key is that it is too late to invite now, right?"

Han Shanping was stunned when he heard this, it was indeed a little late, the current star artists are a little more popular, which one doesn't fill the schedule early, not to mention the little king of the music world.

"Try it, maybe the other party has time, and he loves acting!"

Zhou Jielun really loves acting, and has directed and acted in "The Secret That Can't Be Said" and "Rooftop Love", the latter of which will be released in July this year. But film production and publicity are not his main tasks this year, and what Dong Chou will be busy this year is the Ferris wheel world tour that began on May 17, with 76 performances.

Even if there are few scenes of the prince in the film, I am afraid that it will take ten days and eight days to finish filming, and Dong Chou's concert may not be able to squeeze out this time when he is free!

Lu Lin was only discussing here, but the online media played the principle of "time is money" and "efficiency is life", and the reporters went back to scrub and concoct press releases, which were immediately published.

Xinlang Entertainment: Lu Lin's new film "League of Legends" uses virtual actors on a large scale, but the role of the prince is only reserved for Jay Chou!

Penguin Entertainment: Jay Chou may participate in "League of Legends" to play the national enemy and family hatred ...... Prince Demacia.

As for other online media, they are either written by their own editors, or directly reprinted, anyway, the focus of publicity is on Dong Chou, who is "thousands of miles away". Most of these people secretly said in their hearts: Don't blame us for writing blindly after taking the carriage and horse fare, it is really a virtual actor, and there is no news breaking point!

Although Lu Lin's appeal is already very strong, the media still needs the kind of press release that can attract people's attention.

For example, director Lu Lin's new film is launched, and director Zhang Yimu's new film is launched, which is just a slightly more attractive title than ordinary entertainment news.

And Dong Chou joins Lu Lin's new film, or Lu Lin joins Zhang Yimu's new film, this is not one plus one, but a qualitative change in an instant, and it has become a very eye-catching kind of news.

In the evening, the news that Zhou Jielun was going to participate in "League of Legends", in which he played the prince of Demacia, Jiawen IV, had already made hot search headlines.

And when Dong Chou, who was playing lol at home, heard his assistant tell him about it, his first reaction was confused.

"I'm going to play Jiawen, why hasn't anyone told me about it?"

The assistant said: "There is no such thing at all, it was made up by the mainland reporters who wrote the headline party." ”

"Oh, that's a shame, it would be fun to play a role in League of Legends. Chou Dong said regretfully.

The assistant said: "It's impossible, you're going to start a world tour in a while, and you don't have that time!"

"That's right, besides, I don't like the prince's short legs, if I play Master Yi, it's almost the same!"

At this time, the mobile phone in the assistant's pocket rang, and he picked up the phone and listened for a while.

Dong Zhou smiled and said, "What's wrong?"

The assistant handed over the phone and said a little blankly: "Opposite is Han Dong of China Film, he invited you to play Master Yi...... Ah no, I'm inviting you to play the prince!"
