Chapter 556: Preparation for "Lich War".
"The Lich War" is a very important turning point in the "Flood Stream", and it is also a staged finale of Longlin Pictures' "Flood Movie Universe".
Not only Lu Lin, but the entire Longlin Film Company from top to bottom attaches great importance to it. And Lu Lin put down a lot of work in order to let everyone have a sense of honor to participate.
After all, if you accidentally open the company to be the first in the domestic industry, and then always use the company as a decoration, it is not very suitable to rely on the big package.
Therefore, the preparation project is divided into multiple links, and when Lu Lin writes the first draft of the script, there are people from the screenwriting department to deduce and polish it.
The art team began to make computer drawings and draw some scenes, the props team went to make various props in advance, and the costume group and the scenery group ...... Countless staff members are busy, and even employees have gone to inspect the location. But what attracts the most attention is the choice of actors.
After all, those are behind-the-scenes work, and the audience is more concerned about whether their idols have a chance to participate.
In terms of investment, Longlin Pictures has a lot of money and is not afraid of risks, and many companies no longer have the luxury of co-production. However, many artists have launched relationships to contact Lu Lin, Song Ge, etc., wanting to show their faces in this big drama.
"Director Lu, Huang Xiaoming and Yang Tianbao just called, I want to ask you to have a meal!" In the company's office, Gao Wen came in to report.
Lu Lin heard that he was lying in the boss's chair and pressed his temples, saying that Sect Leader Huang's acting skills in "Chinese Partner" are still very good. But other times, it's on the road of no return.
Moreover, this person's luck doesn't seem to be good, most of the people who participated in the performances were bad movies, and there were a lot of people who refused to act, which was a bit of a decline. Lu Lin is not particularly superstitious, but he just feels that he can't do it.
"Let's just say that my recent schedule is full, and I will invite them to dinner another day!" "In the entertainment industry, it is taboo to not be able to wipe off your face and not be able to refuse, which is what Lu Lin said.
Gao Wen responded, and then said: "In addition, Liu Yifei's team called and wanted to play a role in "Lich War", saying that the salary is negotiable!"
Lu Lin was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "There aren't many female characters in this play, and the company can't arrange it, so let's push it directly!"
Gao Wen sighed slightly when she heard this, if Liu Yifei's team could have this attitude two years in advance, maybe they would have cooperated with Director Lu. Now, I'm afraid there is not much of a chance.
"Miss Yang Mi......"
After all kinds of major and minor affairs were reported, it was almost ten o'clock in the morning. Lu Lin circled around the various departments of the company and asked Song Ge to go out to eat together.
In the box of a Chinese restaurant near the company, Song Ge said: "This film is too grand, it is estimated that it will not be able to start until September, I am afraid that it will not be able to catch up with next year's summer file!"
Lu Lin said with a smile: "If you can't catch up with the summer, you can do it in November." With the current fame of the Flood Wilderness series, it doesn't matter if it's not a popular schedule!"
Song Ge thought so, "I think so too, watching Hollywood blockbusters in the past two years, Avengers and Super 8, are all released on non-popular schedules, but the box office is not bad at all!"
"There are no competitors in the unpopular schedule, and the film schedule can almost reach 70%, so you really don't need to deliberately catch up with the schedule!"
Song Ge nodded again: "That's right!" suddenly smiled: "By the way, when are you going to get married?"
"Why do you suddenly ask this, your thinking is too jumpy, right?" Lu Lin looked surprised as he poured himself wine.
Song Ge smiled, raised his glass and said, "Don't you think that Nezha just took a fancy to our Longlin's resources and joined!"
"Isn't it?" Lu Lin asked rhetorically.
"You, you're just pretending to be confused!" Song Ge took a sip of wine and continued: "These female artists in our company are not in love, don't hang people's appetites for too long!"
Lu Lin was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't know how to answer, if he wanted to say that he had been with Jing Yan in the past two years, he didn't recruit these people from the company. But if anyone has a thought in their heart, it's really not something he can manage.
Moreover, marriage and divorce are common things these days, it is easy to white, and sighed: "Hey, let's talk about it!"
Song Ge just mentioned that he wouldn't bother with Lu Lin's feelings, drank two sips, and talked about the movie again, and sighed: "The Lich War, it's so grandiose, I really don't know what it's like!"
This drama unfolds from the perspective of the Wu clan, telling the story of the death of the two great witches, Kuafu and Hou Yi, and the Demon Clan Heavenly Court took advantage of the situation to launch a war to exterminate the Wu Clan. Killings broke out on the Flood Desolate Continent at once, and countless Wu tribes and lands and mountains were lost one after another.
At the same time, the Emperor of Heaven once again sealed the gods of mountains, land, and water, and drew a geographical map of the mountains and rivers of the Flood Continent to comprehend the "Mixed Yuan Heluo Great Array". He also sent all kinds of demon gods to occupy the mountains as kings, and captured ordinary witches as slaves.
Fortunately, at the moment of crisis, the ten ancestral witches (Gonggong and Zhurong have died) rushed back from the depths of the starry sky one after another, so as to stabilize the situation.
The ancestors were annoyed that the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court suddenly attacked and killed its great witches, tribes, and people. can finally put aside the old grudges between each other and work together to fight the demon clan.
The ancestral witches first killed and drove away some of the demon gods who occupied the mountain, and then attacked the demon clan heavenly court together, and both sides used the most powerful magic weapon killing moves.
The Twelve Heavenly Gods Great Array, the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array, and the Mixed Yuan Heluo Great Array (not the full version) resulted in both defeats, and the ancestors and the Emperor ......of Heaven were both killed.
In short, it is grand, tragic, and epic, and make a shocking blockbuster!
In other words, there is a lack of such films in Chinese-language films, mainly because for some reason, no one filmed those shocking epic battles in history.
For example, Yue Fei and Zhu Xianzhen's big break of the golden soldiers, even the humiliation of Jingkang's shame, and the joy of breaking the golden soldiers, should be a very good epic masterpiece. But with such a good theme, no one filmed it.
There is no need to think about the historical battles in China, and you can only choose the theme here in ancient myths and legends.
Lu Lin saw Song Ge sigh with emotion, and said with a smile: "Think so much, wait for more than half a year, and you will know when the shooting is made!"
Song Ge said: "Anyway, I'm really looking forward to it, don't let me down!"
"Definitely not!"
After finishing a meal, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon when I returned to the company, but no one felt that it was inappropriate. One is the boss, the other is the boss, and he really does whatever he wants!
The next day came to the weekend, Jing Yan came back from filming in other places, and Lu Lin went to the airport to pick her up. The young lady got off the plane, and regardless of whether there were reporters around, she gave Lu Lin a big hug first.
After that, he said: "I'm not here in these days, you haven't done anything bad!"
Lu Lin smiled: "What bad things can I do?"
The young lady rolled her eyes: "Then who knows! Let's go, take me to eat something delicious, I want to have a big meal!"
