In mid-January 2009, the unique Chinese New Year stalls are coming!

The entire Chinese film market ushered in a new round of explosion.

Countless films have been released in major theaters one after another, and although "Journey to the West" has been smeared and attacked on the Internet, there is no new revelation.

The attention has long been drowned in the tide of information news by various celebrity scandals and gossip news.

Only on the official Weibo of the crew of "Journey to the West", some shooting tidbits and stills occasionally released also reminded Chinese fans.

Peng Yichen and his "Journey to the West" have not disappeared.

……

January 21, 2009, today is the day when "Journey to the West" is completed.

Yesterday, the crew actually finished filming the last exterior shot.

At this moment, the whole crew is gathered in a small cave, as long as this last set of interior shots is filmed.

The crew can be completely finished.

"Very good, Brother Huang and Li Yuqi are doing very well. ”

This is a rivalry between the second master and Chun Thirty Niang, and the two actors performed very well.

Peng Yichen also rarely stood in the position of director and personally filmed the last scene of the whole movie.

"We're done!"

Soon, everyone in the crew heard the long-awaited sentence.

No one cheered, everyone seemed to have exhausted the last trace of effort, so tired that they were on the ground, and did not want to get up.

For two and a half months, the entire crew lived an isolated life in the desert, resisted the harsh climate of the desert, and completed the high-intensity shooting task.

During the whole process, everyone worked hard to make a classic, just to let those guys on the Internet who smeared Peng Yichen and this movie finally slap themselves in the face.

Of course, Peng Yichen also knows what kind of hard work everyone has put in, so they worked together to complete the filming of this movie.

Therefore, he decided to hold an unprecedented Shengda finale banquet tonight to reward everyone for their hard work and dedication over the past two months.

……

That night, Peng Yichen bought back countless cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks from Yingchuan City, and really held a barbecue feast for everyone in the empty desert.

Everyone gathered around the campfire and could cook their own ingredients on their own small oven.

There are also more than a dozen barbecue masters from Yingchuan City, who come from Yingchuan City to provide a steady stream of various barbecue skewers for everyone to enjoy.

The crew and staff, who have worked intensively for two and a half months, let go of their hearts and release the pressure of a period of time into the whole team tonight.

And Zhao Zexin found Peng Yichen again, took beer and barbecue and blew with him for half a night, and shared all the experiences of helping Peng Yichen direct movies in the past two and a half months.

Although Peng Yichen is holding the position of chief director this time, he basically delegated power to Zhao Zexin to fully display his directorial talent, which has benefited the assistant director a lot, and has initially gained the confidence and ability that he should have as a director.

"How is it? Do you feel any different in the past few months?" After listening to Zhao Zexin's thoughts, Peng Yichen sat on the sand dunes on all fours, chewing on the chicken skewers that Yu Jing had just grilled for him, and asked the other party with a smile.

Zhao Zexin raised the beer in his hand, took a sip, and then said: "Isn't it the difference between a director and an assistant director? If you hadn't let me direct so many scenes, it would have been years before I understood these things. ”

Peng Yichen smiled and said, "Okay, then tell me, in addition to those experiences, what other feelings do you have?"

Zhao Zexin looked at this young man who was ten years younger than him, but his speech and demeanor were the same as his elders, and he sighed: "Very tired. I can't even imagine how you survived when you were filming a movie before, you had to be both a director and a leading actor. ”

Peng Yichen looked at him, thought about it, picked up the beer and poured two sips, and then suddenly asked, "Are you going to be my assistant director in the future?"

Zhao Zexin looked at Peng Yichen a little inexplicably, "Director Peng, if I don't give you an assistant director, what else can I do? You won't want me, right?" ”

Peng Yichen said with a playful smile: "I am a man with a fiancée, of course I don't want you to be a big man." ”

Zhao Zexin was so amused by Peng Yichen that he couldn't cry or laugh, "You know what I said didn't mean that!"

Peng Yichen smiled and said seriously: "I mean, Chen Jing Film Company currently needs more directors and shoot more film works in addition to me as a director." in order to finally gain a foothold in the Chinese film market. Do you want to be the chief director once, I even have a script ready for you. ”

When Zhao Zexin heard this, his face was full of disbelief, thinking that he was drunk, and he hallucinated: "Director Peng, what you just said, I didn't hear clearly, can you say it again?"

Peng Yichen smiled very considerately and said again: "As long as you sign a 3-year short-term film contract with the company, you can serve as the director of the company's next film." I've got the script ready, it's your favorite genre of cop movies. Now I just want to ask, would you like to accept it?"

Zhao Zexin didn't believe his ears until then, he nodded desperately, and said with excitement on his face: "Yes, very willing." Thank you, thank you!!"

Peng Yichen patted him on the shoulder with a smile, held up the beer bottle and said, "Welcome to become the first signed director of Chen Jing Film Company!"

Zhao Zexin touched the bottle with Peng Yichen with a firm face, and took a sip: "Director Peng, please believe that I will not disappoint your trust." ”

"Okay!" Peng Yichen, a person who drank so much, was also excited by Zhao Zexin's momentum at this time, and his heart was surging.

He exclaimed, "Okay, come, dry this bottle of wine." In the future, we will work together to make a movie that will make the whole of China and the whole world crazy!"

After speaking, Peng Yichen and Zhao Zexin touched the wine bottles in their hands together, and then the two of them raised their heads and drank them all.

Since then, in the Chinese film industry, there have been more and more legendary stories about the "Three Musketeers" directed by Chen Jing Film Company.

In addition to Peng Yichen and Zhao Zexin, Huang Bo, who is not far from him, will also bring greater surprises to his brothers in the future.

……

The day after the barbecue dinner was held, the crew of "Journey to the West" was disbanded.

Most of the crew members are employees of Chang'an Studio, and they all returned to Chang'an to prepare for the New Year.

A small number of staff and actors, led by Zhao Zexin, went to several other location filming locations to make up some shots. Afterwards, they will also go home for the New Year.

Technicians at the Digital Technology Center are responsible for returning to Kyoto for post-production with copies of the shots that require special effects from the film.

Peng Yichen also returned to Kyoto with these technicians to help them complete the special effects production.

This time, unlike his previous films, "Journey to the West" involves a lot of special effects synthetic shots, and I am afraid that it will not be completed at all in less than three months.

But before that, Peng Yichen has a very important matter to deal with.

After arranging all the work of the post-production of the film, Peng Yichen rushed directly from Kyoto to Xiangjiang.

He was going there to find someone who was very important to "Journey to the West".
