Chapter 544: The movie starts
Time flies, and for students, it's the beginning of the school season again.
And Qinghe dropped a bombshell on the tail of this holiday.
Directed by Su Yan and with a total investment of 400 million, the sci-fi film "The Last Days" is about to start filming, starring Guo Hangyu, Liu Chutian, Tillory, the cameo lineup is quite strong, Hu Shuai, Huang Lei, Lin Gengxin, Chen Chichi, Wu Jing and more than a dozen stars.
It can be said that the heat of the whole summer belongs to Qinghe, or Su Yan.
"Three Meals a Day" followed Gong Li, ushered in Lao Ma and Lao Yu, two guests, so that the audience did not expect that the bigwigs were working in the fields to pick corn, milking goats and other actions were even more addictive, the program team turned out to be so hard, and everyone was treated equally.
Su Yan is also very busy this month, auditioning, makeup delivery, scene design, construction, props design and production, equipment selection, because of his own unskilledness, so every job is done by himself, not all for guidance, a lot of it is learning.
In particular, the drawing of the sub-shot made him pick up the brush that he had put down for many years, and it took many nights to paint several major scenes to the effect he wanted and the photographer could understand.
And countless reporters, on August 28, came to Hengdian Film and Television City, because today the crew of "The Last Days" will hold a start-up ceremony here.
This kind of ritual originated in Xiangjiang, where the commercial operation of film and television dramas was earlier than that of China, and there were no certain rules for the objects of worship, those who believed in Buddhism worshiped Bodhisattvas, those who believed in Taoism worshiped immortals, and those who didn't believe in anything worshiped their ancestors, and even worshiped Guan Gong and Luban.
One of the more famous is Thailand's White Dragon King, when Lin Jianyue's Media Asia Film Company fearlessly downturned the market, held a very pompous worship ceremony, and the name of the movie was renamed "Infernal Affairs" at the suggestion of the White Dragon King, and it was a big hit in the end.
Now the words are more symbolic, similar to the opening ceremony, the groundbreaking ceremony, and the crew mobilization meeting, but also to attract attention and attract attention.
Of course, because there are many uncertain factors that are difficult to control in film and television dramas, such as actors' illness, natural and man-made disasters that lead to a day of downtime, a lot of expenses will be lost, so pray for God's blessing, sometimes the machine is broken and other unpredictable losses, please feel at ease after saying goodbye.
Moreover, it is those who make horror movies, after all, many times the filming locations are so-called "murderous houses", so it is natural to buy the possible "existence".
Since it is a custom, Su Yan naturally will not destroy it.
At 9:18 in the morning, it was an auspicious time, and he took more than 100 actors and staff to face Emperor Guan and began to worship under the guidance of a special person.
After that, he walked to the pig's head, fruits, pastries and other offerings, lit the incense in his hand with a reverent face, and bowed to Guan Erge three times, and after silently reciting his expectations for the next shooting, he gently inserted it into the incense burner, and the actors behind him followed suit.
The whole process took about an hour, and finally Su Yan walked to the side, uncovered the red cloth covered by the camera, and after everyone gave warm applause, Licheng and everyone stood together to take a family photo.
It's still early, the first shot will be shot in the afternoon, and the rest will be handed over to the reporters present.
Lao Hu, Wu Jing was not at the scene, Chi Chi was very powerful, and he rushed over from Yanjing, you must know that his shot of the whole drama is estimated to be less than two minutes.
Soon, Su Yan sat on the interview seat with the three leading actors and supporting roles, and the flash basically didn't stop.
Lao Wang was very happy, and he personally came down to be the host.
"Welcome to the launch site of "The Last Days" colleagues and journalists...... Now let's start asking free questions. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, countless reporters raised their hands.
Su Yan pointed to one at random.
"Director Su, as far as I know, although you graduated from the directing department, the focus of your work in recent years has been on variety shows, as a film Virgo, is it too risky to invest 400 million. ”
can only say that this reporter has been very face-saving, and he didn't say it too clearly, and the subtext is that as a rookie, if you dare to invest 400 million, you are not afraid of losing all your money.
"'The Last Days' is a good script first and foremost, and it took the original author three years to write this story, and with the fact that our excellent cast and crew have done a lot of preparation, I believe that the result will not disappoint us, nor will it disappoint the audience. ”
Such an answer obviously failed to satisfy the reporter, obviously playing Tai Chi, and he wanted to continue to speak, but Lao Wang didn't give him a chance and changed to the next one.
"Hello Director Su, listen to the name, this seems to be a science fiction film, since "The Wandering Earth" became a big hit, many directors in China have made similar movies in the future, but the results are not very good, and even some directors were criticized for saying that the door was finally opened, but it was closed again, do you think you can open the door again?"
There are traps in the problem, and Su Yan naturally won't step on it.
"In fact, every movie is made, it is the work of a group of people, as for whether it can open the door again, I don't count, only through the audience's test, can we know, but I am confident. ”
"Director, the title of the film is "The End of the World", will there be zombies, or mutations or something like a Hollywood movie?"
Finally someone cares about the movie itself.
"The end times here are about a result, that is, after a great catastrophe, the story of the remaining human beings trying to survive in a desperate situation......"
Su Yan said a lot about the setting of the movie without spoilers as much as possible.
"Hello little sister Liu Chutian. For this young actor who is only 13 years old, the reporter still takes care of it: "What kind of role are you in the movie?" ”
"I've been running away, and bad guys have been looking for me. The little girl's innocent and romantic answer made the scene laugh.
"Did you manage to escape?"
"I don't know, it's not written in the script, if you want to know, you can go to the cinema and watch it. ”
What a clever little ghost.
"Tilol, what kind of role do you play in the movie? ”
"Desperate to survive..."
"Is there an emotional scene between you and Guo Hangyu?"
"In the last days of Director Su, love is extravagant, and it may sprout, but no one can be sure of the future direction. ”
"Guo Hangyu, as soon as the TV series ended, I came over to participate in the movie, won't there be a problem with the change of roles?"
"Thanks to the director and the author, they spent a lot of time explaining to me in detail the setting of the world view, as well as my character, form and style, etc..."
An hour later, the reporters were satisfied, took all the materials, and went back to writing the press release.
