Chapter 381: The God of Medicine is turned on
The sequel to "Company of Soldiers" is still in preparation, but "I Am Not the God of Medicine" can be started.
The name of this piece was first called "Indian God of Medicine" in another time and space, and later changed its name to "Chinese God of Medicine". According to the words of the leading actor Xu Zheng, some people always asked him how the filming of "Indian God Oil" was, and it was not changed to "I Am Not the God of Medicine" when it was about to be released.
Lu Lin's side communicated with Han Jiayi and revised it several times, and when it was finalized and recorded, the name "I Am Not the God of Medicine" was determined.
As for the filming location, the filming location of the original version is India and Jinling City. The West Lane in Qinhuai District, Jinling, the Olympic Sports Center in Hexi, the Landscape School Park and the vicinity of Dachang, etc., a group of pictures constitute the background of the movie.
In this version of Longlin Pictures, the domestic scenes are naturally also started and filmed in Jinling.
In terms of investment, Longlin Pictures invested 80%, Xu Zheng's Zhenle Dao contributed 20%, and Longlin Pictures was exclusively responsible for the distribution of the film.
Because it is not very favored by the industry, there are almost no people who want to invest in this film. Even if it is Xu Zheng, there is an element of gambling. The movies produced by Longlin Pictures are all very profitable, and he felt that this drama was very touching when it was filmed, so he decided to participate in the investment.
In terms of actors, the male is basically the same as another time and space, mainly because the male actors of Long Lin are too young, and they are basically small students, which are not very compatible with the characters in the play.
There are only some changes in the woman, Wan Qian, who is full of amorous feelings, plays Cheng Yong's ex-wife, and Ying Bao plays Lu Ying's wife. And the heroine Liu Sihui still chooses Tan Bang in the original version.
Tan Bang is a good actor, when she starred in "I Am Not the God of Medicine", in order to rehearse that pole dancing scene, she practiced dancing for 4 hours a day for a month, and was later told that because of the excessive intensity, her leg had cartilage fractures.
"I Am Not the God of Medicine" can have such good results, probably because every actor is so attentive!
Zhang Yu, a person in his thirties wants to perform the impulse of his twenties, as well as the vicissitudes of the world for a long time. Han Dongjun may also be able to perform, but his physique is too strong, and his spirit is not like it!
Pastor Yang Xinming learned English from scratch for a few lines. There are also fake drug dealer Wang Yanhui, police officer Zhou Yiwei, and even the grandmother who plays the role of a passerby, a simple and unpretentious sentence of "who can not meet a patient" is enough to poke the weakness of the audience's heart.
But in the whole film, except for Xu Zheng, the most amazing thing is Wang Chuanjun.
Before the release of this movie, the public's impression of him was still on Guan Gu Miracle who "committed suicide by cutting his stomach in minutes".
When Chen He, Lou Yixiao, Li Jiahang and others were still in the aura of "Love Apartment" and couldn't come out, Wang Chuanjun used "disfigured" acting skills to wash away the "Guan Gu impression" in the hearts of the public.
The most expressive thing is the scene where he lies on the hospital bed, in order to find that weak state, Wang Chuanjun lay in the hospital for two days without sleeping.
It is precisely with these actors with solid acting skills and willingness to pay that "I Am Not the God of Medicine" can poke the audience's heart.
If you really invite those popular big names who are rolling dramas, Miss Digital who reads "1234", how can there be an amazing box office of 3 billion.
So no matter from that aspect, Lu Lin wants to make the film as consistent with the "original" as possible.
On Saturday, August 1, in Jinling, a hotel vacant lot near West Lane in Qinhuai District, the opening ceremony of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" was being held, and the upstairs was preparing for the opening banquet.
Because it was invested by the owner of Longlin Film and produced by Lu Lin, this low-cost reality film still attracted the attention of many domestic media. The press conference was also considered a media gathering, but there were many fewer fans than before.
When Lu Lin appeared with Wen Muyu, Zhang Yu, Wang Chuanjun, Zhou Yiwei, Yang Xinming, Wang Yanhui, Tan Bang, Ying Bao, Wan Qian, etc., the media reporters were immediately in a commotion.
However, before the interview session, Lu Lin naturally spoke first and roughly explained the origin of this movie. Then Xu Zheng spoke, saying that he was very optimistic about the film.
Wen Muyu is not well-known at the moment, but there is not much to talk about, mainly thanks to Longlin Pictures' "Chinese New Director Program", and thanks to Lu Lin and Song Ge, who are willing to give him such an opportunity as a rookie director.
After that, there was an interview session, and the first question was asked by a reporter from Xinlang Entertainment: "Hello Director Lu, there have been rumors that you are ready to direct this film yourself." Now he is serving as a producer, directed by a director who has little experience, is it out of lack of confidence in himself? After all, this movie is a realistic theme, and there are not many directors in China who can make this kind of theme well!"
Xinlang Entertainment originally had a good relationship with Longlin Pictures, but after the release of "The Three-Body Problem", Xinlang Finance issued a very strange criticism, which seemed to affect the attitude of the entire "Xinlang Department" towards Lu Lin.
"I had the idea of directing this film before, but now I am a producer, not because I am not confident in myself. It's that this movie is not very difficult to shoot, and the company has a bunch of blockbusters to shoot, so I asked Director Wen Muyu to help!" Lu Lin said with a smile.
The reporter of Xinlang Entertainment said: "Although the box office of Director Lu's film is high, it has never won any heavyweight awards. But despise realistic films, will you be a little overconfident?"
Lu Lin laughed again, "Which heavyweight award are you talking about?"
The reporter said: "The three major film festivals in Europe, the domestic golden statue, the golden horse, and the golden rooster!"
Lu Lin smiled again, "What you asked seems to be a bit off-topic, and it has little to do with today's launch conference, so I refuse to answer, next!"
But he secretly said in his heart: "It seems that some future activity interviews don't need to be called Xinlang Entertainment." ”
The one who asked later was the reporter of "China Entertainment Report", and the question was also very tricky, "Hello Director Lu, we have seen that the actors of the film "I Am Not the God of Medicine", except for Miss Zhao Liying, are not from Longlin Pictures. Did you choose this because of your acting skills, or for some other reason?"
Although the question is not particularly explicit, there are also questions about the acting skills of Longlin's artists. couldn't help but make Lu Lin wonder if they had collected other people's "carriage and horse fares" before they came.
said: "The cast of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" was drawn up by me and President Song Ge Song, and then invited the actors. mainly thinks that their image is more consistent with the characters in the script, and their acting skills and professional attitude are also very good in the circle.
As for the only artist under Longlin, Li Ying is alone, mainly because of the schedule. After all, the artists in our company are relatively popular, and it is very reasonable that the schedule is full!"
"Then Miss Zhao Liying is here because she is not the first sister of Long Lin and has fewer resources?" said a male reporter indignantly.
Zhao Liying hurriedly explained: "No, the company has always given me a lot of resources, and I am also very grateful to Director Lu for his support and help. My schedule has always been full, but when I read the script, I thought it was very touching, so I asked Director Lu for a cameo role!"
