Chapter 695: Eye-opening
Some women are like red wine, which becomes more delicious and mellow after time and slowly fermentation.
Obviously, in Lin Xiaoguang's eyes, Liu Yun is such a woman.
may be because he has not filmed recently, Lin Xiaoguang's spirit and physical strength are very good, and Liu Yun's condition is also very good.
Before parting, Lin Xiaoguang was a little uneasy, and told Liu Yun again, asking her to buy as few original shares as possible.
After resting at home for two days, Lin Xiaoguang was invited by Gan Wei and left the capital.
March 24th, noon.
Lin Xiaoguang arrived at Xiangshan Film and Television City, ready to inspect the crew of "The Promotion of the Crown Princess".
In other words, "The Promotion of the Crown Princess" was mainly filmed in Zhao Dun's Mansion, Gongsun Mansion, Zhuang Ji Mansion, Xiangyang City, Taoyuan Palace and studio in Xiangshan Film and Television City.
Compared with Hengdian Film and Television City, although the fame of Xiangshan Film and Television City is not as big as Hengdian, the scenery here is still much better than that of Hengdian Film and Television City.
Moreover, Xiangshan Film and Television City is located in the Xiangshan Datanggang Ecological Tourism Zone, with Lingyan Mountain as the background, combining the local natural landscapes such as mountains, rocks, caves, water, and forests.
However, Lin Xiaoguang came to Xiangshan Film and Television City this time, mainly to inspect the crew of "The Promotion of the Crown Princess", not to visit the mountains and rivers.
Therefore, Lin Xiaoguang rested for a while in the hotel where he was received, and then set off to visit the studio.
Before arriving on the set, Gan Wei put aside the work at hand, and then took Lin Xiaoguang to wander around the crew.
Looking at a group of actors in fancy costumes on the set, walking around in front of him, Lin Xiaoguang asked with some curiosity: "Gan Dong, I really can't figure it out, why did you choose to invest in such an alternative online drama?"
Gan Wei smiled embarrassedly: "Lin Dong smiled, I just think that such a conflict point will be particularly good to make into an online drama." ”
"After all, everyone is used to watching traditional time-traveling dramas, and they need something fresh to stimulate the audience's attention, which can also set up a novel model in the market. ”
Lin Xiaoguang pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Gan Dong, how long are you going to shoot this drama?"
Gan Wei said calmly: "The preliminary estimated shooting period is almost two months. ”
As soon as the words ended, a slender woman wearing sandals and a dress like a large red sheet passed by them.
Seeing this, Gan Wei hurriedly beckoned to the woman and said, "Tianai, come, come quickly." ”
Hearing Gan Wei's shout, Zhang Tianai stopped, turned around, and walked in the direction of Gan Wei.
"Sister Wei, do you call me?" Gan Wei looked at the man standing next to Gan Wei as she walked.
"Lin Dong, let me introduce to you, this is the heroine of our drama - Zhang Tianai. ”
The moment Zhang Tianai saw Lin Xiaoguang clearly, he was very flustered, tilted his head, and said resignedly: "Lin Dong, you ...... Hello, I am Zhang Tianai, the actor of the crown princess. “
Lin Xiaoguang didn't speak, just nodded, and while carefully looking at the red dress Zhang Tianai was wearing, he joked with a smile: "Did you buy this skirt you wore on Taobao?"
In the face of Lin Xiaoguang's ridicule, for a while, Zhang Tianai didn't know what to say, she felt that her whole face was hot, and the whole country should not be able to find a heroine like her, who was filming on the set in clothes like street stalls, and it was so embarrassing to meet a big director like Lin Xiaoguang for the first time......
Seeing Zhang Tianai lowering his head, pursing his lips and not speaking, Gan Wei had a straight face, and couldn't help urging: "Tianai, what is Lin Dong asking you about? Are you deaf?"
Zhang Tianai raised his head, glanced at Gan Wei, and then at Lin Xiaoguang, and hurriedly said, "Sister Wei, I'm sorry...... I didn't mean to...... Lin Dong, my skirt was not bought on Taobao, but designed by our director himself. ”
When Lin Xiaoguang heard Zhang Tianai say this, he suddenly became interested, looked at Gan Wei and said, "Gan Dong, can you take me to meet the director of your play?"
"Okay, Lin Dong, go, follow me. After Gan Wei finished speaking, she led Lin Xiaoguang and walked towards the scene.
"Sister Wei, Lin Dong...... You two walk slowly, ......" Zhang Tianai raised his head and watched Lin Xiaoguang and Gan Wei leave.
Afterwards, Gan Wei called the director, who was sewing clothes backstage, to Lin Xiaoguang.
As soon as the director saw Lin Xiaoguang, he said respectfully: "Lin Dong, hello, I am Lu Haojiji, the director of "The Promotion of the Crown Princess". ”
Lin Xiaoguang was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "Lu Haojiji?"
Gan Wei smiled and said, "Lin Dong, I forgot to introduce to you, Ji Ji is not Japanese, he is the son of the famous writer Mr. Haiyan." ”
Lin Xiaoguang was even more puzzled, and said in his heart, isn't Hai Yan's surname Yan? Why is his son called Lu Hao Jiji?
Although Lin Xiaoguang was a little confused about the situation, he still said with a lot of face: "It turns out that he is still Mr. Haiyan's son, yes, promising." ”
Immediately afterwards, Lin Xiaoguang joked with a smile: "I heard that the clothes of the crew and actors are all designed by you alone?
Lu Haojiji was flattered and said: "Director Lin has won the award, and I am also a good woman who is difficult to cook without rice...... It's really ...... There is no way out. ”
The latter sentence, Lu Haojiji obviously said to Gan Wei, with a little bit of crying and protesting.
Lin Xiaoguang was dumbfounded, and looked at Gan Wei suspiciously: "Gan Dong, what's going on? Your crew, you won't be so poor that you can't even afford to buy clothes, right?"
Gan Wei couldn't sit still, so she asked Lu Haojiji to step back first, and then emphasized to Lin Xiao three times: "Lin Dong, you misunderstood, our crew is not poor, and the budget is nearly 20 million yuan." ”
Lin Xiaoguang smiled, such a crew, let alone a budget of 20 million, even 2 million may not be available.
Seeing that Lin Xiaoguang didn't seem to believe what he said, Gan Wei was also anxious, and continued: "Lin Dong, don't look at our crew, our crew also has more than 100 people, and it is about 10-200,000 yuan a day. ”
"In addition to the salaries of the personnel, the cost of equipment is also included. ”
"Especially the clothes worn by the actors, most of them are the directors who have traveled to all the garment factories and fabric markets in Shaojing, personally picking the colors and textures of the fabrics, and selecting the best materials for the leading actors. ”
"Moreover, we also found in a large number of research on the costumes of costume dramas that director Xu Ke could make bold innovations in the movie "Green Snake" as early as the 90s, so that the costumes could completely subvert the traditional model in the past White Lady series of film and television works......"
Seeing Gan Wei explain to herself bitterly, Lin Xiaoguang looked at Jabbs's face and gradually believed 5% of what she said.
However, Lin Xiaoguang walked and watched all the way, and the more he looked, the more speechless he felt.
It stands to reason that now that the market value is hundreds of billions, Gan Wei should also belong to the kind of rich lady who is not bad for money.
However, Lin Xiaoguang didn't expect that Ganwei Jianghu people called "the boss lady", and she was the chairman of Leyang Film and Television, such a face-to-face woman actually engaged in the most shabby crew in history.
Lin Xiaoguang is an eye-opener today, he has been filming for so many years, and he has never seen such a shabby crew as "The Promotion of the Crown Princess" can basically compete for the poorest crew in history.
After arriving at the set, Lin Xiaoguang found out that the actors' sandals were purchased from a certain treasure, and the clothes were made of bed curtains, so the actors were often unclothed.
The most expensive prop in the whole crew is a blower, but according to director Lu Haojiji, this most expensive blower still has a bit of electricity leakage.
There is no money to buy clothes, so Lu Haojiji designs them by himself, lets the actors barefoot if they don't have shoes to wear, and only shoots the starring roles if they can't afford to hire extras, and makes up their own money if they don't have enough funds.
In the end, no one was invited to sing the interlude, so the leading actors simply paid for it themselves.
In addition to the costumes, the biggest slot of the crew is the props.
In order to save props, every time the prince gets angry in the play, he throws things into the pool, because the props can be picked up and continued to be used.
Zhang Tianai, who played the crown princess, also took advantage of Gan Wei's busy work, and under Lin Xiaoguang's questioning, he revealed the situation to him: "Director Lin, when we eat fruit, after the durian is eaten, the shell is not thrown away, and the shell is glued up and then used." ”
