Chapter 15: Filming Begins
"Jingwumen" was launched in a low-key manner, and no press conference was held.
Now, the topic of scolding has gradually dissipated, and Mu Chen is no longer chased by the media.
Mu Chen didn't care about this.
Publicity may be indispensable for the success of a TV series, but it is obviously much less dependent than a movie.
What's more, the real publicity is before the start of the broadcast, not before the start of filming.
made a big splash before the start of filming, if it wasn't for the amazing publicity costs, it was just the consumption heat.
With such a consumption heat, the gains outweigh the losses.
Low-key start-up is also what Mu Chen saw.
The most popular actor in the entire crew is undoubtedly Li Ruoxi, and she is also the one with the highest salary.
Moreover, it is still a friendly price.
It doesn't matter if she gives it or not, or how much she gives, but after all, she has a brokerage company, so she has to consider the interests of the company.
The actor's salary accounts for a very small part of the investment in the entire TV series.
For a TV series, if the actor's salary occupies too much and wants to be well-made, then you can only increase investment.
It is obviously impossible to increase investment.
With his current qualifications, it is estimated that he will not be able to attract investment.
There is so much money, so naturally it has to be used on the blade.
In this TV series, Mu Chen will use "real kung fu" as a publicity gimmick, and actors involved in action need to have a certain kung fu foundation.
You don't need real kung fu, but if you don't even have a little foundation, it's undoubtedly difficult to play the feeling you want.
However, there are actually not many such actors in the circle.
In the thirty episodes of "Jingwumen", Mu Chen has not increased or decreased.
The filming period of 30 episodes is not short.
Although Mu Chen has been with the crew, it is the first time to be a director.
However, with the assistance of an experienced assistant director, Mu Chen became familiar with it, but it was much faster.
After getting acquainted with it, although I can't talk about it easily, I don't feel the slightest bit powerless.
After all, Mu Chen has the original reference, and he has taken many detours.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Mu Chen took the lunch box, squatted beside Mu Ze, and said with a smile.
He felt that Mu Ze couldn't let go!
Mu Chen has been running tricks in the film and television city for a few years, and he has also played a lot of roles with dialogues in the past two years, and his acting skills are still there, but if you say how good the acting skills are, it will not be enough.
However, in Mu Chen's opinion, it is still completely okay to play this TV series.
In terms of acting, the requirements for TV series are obviously not as high as those of movies. What's more, the selling point of this TV series is the drama, not the literary drama.
Of course, this is not to say that literary drama is not important.
When Mu Ze heard this, he smiled bitterly.
He didn't want to, but every time he thought about what this TV series meant to Mu Chen, he felt Alexander.
"Be more confident! If you've been so tight on yourself. There are so many plays, it's easy for you to hurt people like this. Later, you and Teacher Gao will have a fight!" Mu Chen continued, "Brother, as a martial arts practitioner, your ability to resist pressure is very contemptible!"
Mu Ze has a very high talent in acting, and many times he can understand it at one point.
At least, within two days of shooting, Mu Chen felt that he had made great progress.
"Aren't you worried at all?"
Mu Ze looked at Li Ruoxi not far away, and then asked.
"Is it useful to worry?" Mu Ze smiled and said, "Isn't it okay to do what you should do." Why, do you have no confidence in this show, or do you have confidence in my younger brother?"
Mu Ze smiled, and his tense nerves loosened a little.
Oh, yes!
Isn't doing what you should do the best help for your brother?
The play has already been designed, and they have all practiced against each other many times before filming. However, the filming did not go as smoothly as expected.
The action design of this TV series is more than Mu Chen's hands, and Gao Hua and the people he introduced are also involved, and they give a lot of suggestions.
Mu Chen feels that the fighting scenes of this version of the TV series are more exciting than the original version.
This is not the reason why parents always look at their children as good, but standing on the shoulders of giants, if they are not taller than giants, then it is a bit unreasonable.
Filming scenes are inevitable, and the most fighting scenes in the whole drama are undoubtedly Mu Ze as the male lead, and he is naturally injured.
And the number of injuries is also the highest.
"I really don't know if it's right or wrong to let you go the path of a martial arts actor. Mu Chen looked at Mu Ze, who was bandaging his wounds, shook his head and said.
Before choosing, he should ask Mu Ze for his request.
If you want to win the red Mu Ze, Mu Chen actually has a lot of choices.
"It's just a small injury. Mu Ze smiled and said, "This path is undoubtedly the best choice for me." If I want to gain a foothold in such a fierce film and television industry, what are my advantages?"
Mu Ze's appearance is still not low, but if he wants to gain a foothold in the circle with this, it is completely impossible.
This is not his advantage.
Mu Ze has not systematically studied acting, and his acting skills are unsatisfactory, which is naturally not his advantage.
Sing?
He has no dancing talent.
Kung fu seems to be Mu Ze's biggest advantage.
Young action actors are actually not nothing, but they are far worse than Mu Ze in terms of appearance.
For example, Liu Zhensheng's actor Miao Xun is.
Miao Xun is now only nearly thirty years old, a kung fu child star, and now he has long lost the resources he had when he was a child, so he can only shoot online dramas or soy sauce in some TV series in the past two years.
When I was a child, I was very popular, but when I grew up, I didn't have a role to remember.
His salary is not high now.
However, the acting skills and actions made Mu Chen feel that it was worth the money.
Mu Chen believes that with the role of Liu Zhensheng, Miao Xun should not miss an appointment in the future.
Miao Xun may also believe it.
Minor injuries did not leave the line of fire, and the shooting continued.
Mu Ze was injured like this, and Gao Hua was still injured.
In fact, this TV series is not just Mu Chen's expectations.
"Haven't rested yet?" Li Ruoxi looked at Mu Chen and said.
"One more thing, right away, you haven't gone back yet. Mu Chen smiled and said.
"You advised your brother not to put too much pressure on himself, in fact, you are the one who tightens the whole crew. Li Ruoxi said, "You don't have to work so hard. ”
"I'm a director, so I inevitably have to think about more things, so naturally I have to spend more energy. Mu Chen smiled and said, "I just want to shoot my first work well." ”
"Mu Chen, no one can separate us, not even my dad!" Li Ruoxi looked at Mu Chen and said, "I didn't expect my dad to ......."
"You should be proud to have such a father. Mu Chen smiled and said, "What your dad gave me was not pressure, but motivation." ”
"Your dad is not just a test, it's also an opportunity. Mu Chen continued, "An opportunity to narrow the gap between you and me." ”
"Mu Chen, you know, I don't care......"
"I know. But you know what? Feelings don't need to be the right match, but life does. Mu Chen smiled and said, "Ruoxi, I'm afraid that one day I will hear too much gossip and arouse my poor self-esteem." There are too many people in this world who love each other and are forced to fail to make it to the end for various reasons. I don't want us to be the same. ”
"But ......" Li Ruoxi didn't say anything.
But what if this TV series fails?
Do you really want to leave me if you fail?
"Trust me!" Mu Chen smiled and said, "Have confidence in me and this show." ”
"Hmm!" Li Ruoxi nodded, then smiled.
It's just that the smile is a bit far-fetched.
Mu Chen's worries are not her worries.
Feelings are a matter of two people, but life is not. If any relationship wants to blossom and bear fruit, it is inseparable from life.
If the relationship is going to come to an end, you have to bear the pressure of life.
Li Minhui understands, and Mu Chen also understands.
