Chapter 343: The script is set
At the end of March, the first draft of the script of "Flood Waste: The Battle of the Deer" was completed and sent for review, and the project was officially launched.
The background of the story is based on the setting in "Buddha": After the Lich War, there are still great witch tribes in the human world, and the demon clan and humans are regarded as one race, and the war between humans and witches is still endless. The Jiuli tribe used the power of the tribe to build a great array of twelve heavenly gods with the secret art of the Wu clan, and wanted to gather the twelve ancestors and witch spirits for their own use.
But the great prosperity of the human religion is the number of days, the beginning of the Tianzun ordered Guangchengzi to go down to find the future "human emperor", Guangchengzi accepted the apprentice Xuanyuan, helped him kill Chiyou, exterminate his tribe, Xuanyuan became the emperor.
As for the story of Xuanyuan's grandson Zhuan Xuan's injury to the great Wu Jiufeng, it is not in the story of the script.
The first draft of the script is probably like this, and some things can only be changed while shooting. After all, there is such a thing as artistic creation, and there are often things that have a flash of inspiration.
For example, a writer who creates a good outline and outline in the first place, but while writing, he may be deviated by some momentary inspiration. It's hard to follow the original idea closely.
The script is finalized, and the rest is easier to say. In terms of actors, the role of the Yellow Emperor invited Chen Baowei early.
And the latter, at the moment, is being invited by Yu Dong to prepare to take over the role of "Minister Hao" in "Mekong Action".
Yu Dong was quite happy to learn that Longlin Pictures' new film "Flood Wilderness: The Battle of the Deer" invited Chen Baowei to play the Yellow Emperor, so that the two films were released one after another, and they could also rub off on each other's traffic.
Yu Dong called Lu Lin and invited him to come over and talk. Lu Lin wrote the script in retreat at home for a long time, and he was feeling bored and panicked, so he happily went to the appointment.
In the VIP box of a Chinese restaurant near Bona's company, Yu Dong, Lin Chaomiao, Chen Baowei, Zhang Hanyu, Peng Yuyan and Huang Yanxin.
The latter has directed films such as "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China" and "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party", and he is not an idle person in the Chinese film industry.
After Lu Lin came in, everyone got up to greet each other, Yu Dong opened his arms and hugged Lu Lin, and said with a smile: "Welcome Director Lu Da to come and guide!"
Lu Lin smiled and said, "Boss Yu, it's a loss to me to say that!" He immediately shook hands with the others before sitting down next to Yu Dong.
The latter said: "It's really not a loss to you, I sincerely ask for advice! You said that you have a movie, and the script will be written in two or three months, and the shooting effect is quite good!" With a reasonable expression, everyone who listened to it laughed.
Yu Dong said: "Our script lasted three years and changed more than 20 drafts before it was barely passed. ”
"Operation Mekong" is based on the real case "Mekong River Case", which took place in October 2011, and in the summer of 2012, the criminal was extradited back to China and sentenced in southern Yunnan.
At that time, Han Dong personally grasped the project, and invited Li Ming of Xiaoma Pentium to participate, and chose Lan Xiaolong to write the screenplay and Gao Skirt Su to direct.
The project was quickly advanced to the stage of actor selection, and then Han Shanping told Gao Skirt Su that he couldn't shoot it, and the project was snatched away by Bona.
The reason why Yu Dong was able to easily snatch the adaptation rights of the film from the old leaders was mainly because his shooting concept attracted the high-level of the Ministry of Public Security.
Because China Film once submitted a script outline of the main theme, and proposed a shooting plan with an investment of 50 million. Such a production concept can only be described as decent, and there are no surprises.
Bona, on the other hand, plans to produce 200 million commercial blockbusters, proposing to "shoot like American blockbusters", similar to "Mission Impossible" and "Fast and Furious", this extreme design, the Ministry of Public Security is quite moved. In the end, Bona got the film adaptation rights of the "Mekong" incident.
Of course, such a movie adapted from a real case involves the police, and you don't have to think about it to know that the script is not easy to write.
Lu Lin said with a smile: "I shoot ordinary themes, you shoot major themes, the main review unit of the script is different, and it is normal to change it for three years!"
Lin Chao said: "Actually, I have watched "Wolf Warrior", and the second half of the part of going abroad is very similar to the Mekong case!"
Lu Lin said: "Oh, it's a little bit, but it's different, otherwise it's not so easy to pass the trial!"
Everyone laughed when they heard this, and Yu Dong sighed: "But it can't be compared with "Wolf Warrior"!"
The Longlin version of "Wolf Warrior" had a box office of 2.8 billion in the mainland, and once won the box office record in Chinese film history. From this point alone, many movies can't compare.
Lu Lin said: "It's different, when we first filmed the wolf warrior, there was only one word in our minds, burn, how to be hot-blooded, how to burn and how to come!
Yu Dong nodded slightly, "Indeed, although the two movies are somewhat similar, their essence is different. ”
He also has some pride of his own in his heart, that is, Americans can shoot it, and Lao Tzu can shoot it. In this regard, Lu Lin walked ahead of him, and several special effects blockbusters were no worse than Hollywood's.
But the realistic theme is Lu Lin's shortcoming. The White House and the Pentagon often appear in American movies, does Lu Lin dare to shoot the Ministry of Public Security, and dare to shoot the square where the flag is raised?
He suggested to the high-level that the Ministry of Photography faces the north gate of Chang'an Avenue, and this gate will not be opened lightly unless the central leaders and important foreign guests come.
After greeting for a while, everyone's topic turned to the preparation of the film. Lu Lin has seen all the films, and he has no interest in these, so he asked Chen Baowei how long he signed the film contract.
The latter smiled: "I don't have many roles, I only signed for a month, it shouldn't be delayed!"
Chen Baowei is an old drama bone, and he doesn't have acting skills, but after all, he is middle-aged, and there is no market among moviegoers with an average age of 21. Since "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" in 09, "Mekong" is the first film contract, and there are not many scenes.
can play the Yellow Emperor in the third part of Lu Lin's "Flood Movie Universe" "The Battle of the Deer", Chen Baowei is also very happy. People who are mixed in the film and television industry, who doesn't want to endure more challenges!
"It shouldn't be delayed!" He turned his head and said to Yu Dong again: "Our film will start shooting at the end of April, when will you be?"
Yu Dong glanced at Huang Yanxing, and the latter said: "It should be September, we have too many things to prepare in the early stage!" and then said in surprise: "You are fast enough from the finalization of the script to the start-up time!"
Lu Lin said: "The main thing is that there is a lot of preparatory work, which has been done in advance. In addition, most of the scenes and fights are made by post-production special effects!"
Yu Dong smiled: "It's not comparable!"
said that with the determination of the actors one by one, the news that "Flood Wilderness: The Battle of the Deer" was going to start has also spread, which has aroused the excitement of countless fans.
After all, Lu Lin is a well-known fast gunner, and two special effects blockbusters are as stable as a dog every year, looking at this posture, there is still hope to see this movie in the New Year file at the end of 15 years.
It's only bitter for the fans of "Company of Heroes", at this rate, there is no hope of seeing a sequel in a few years!
