In terms of business ability alone, the leading actors of the crew of "Broken Love" are all powerful actors. Whether it is Wen Zhang and Bai Lily as the male and female protagonists, or Zhang Jiayi and Guo Jingfei who do not have many roles, they can be regarded as outstanding acting skills. The actors played well, and the director and crew were all old teams with tacit understanding, so the filming progress of the movie has always been very fast.

The biggest benefit of fast progress is to save production costs. Except for the fixed salary of the main actors, which was agreed before the start of filming, the working members of the crew were paid on a daily basis. Coupled with the daily expenses of transportation, food, accommodation, props and so on during the filming, even a small crew like "Broken Love" can save more than 100,000 yuan if it can be completed one day earlier.

According to the current progress, "33 Days of Broken Love" can end at least ten days earlier than originally expected, which means that it can save nearly one million in capital costs. According to Mu Ming's idea, the funds saved will be invested in publicity, which can be regarded as a reasonable allocation of resources.

However, in the consciousness of a creature like a director, there is always the possibility of additional investment, and there is no such thing as saving money. Therefore, after estimating the production cost, Uncle Teng Huatao waved his hand and made a big upgrade from lens performance to scene layout.

For example, at the end of the movie, there was a shot of Huang Xiaoxian and Wang Xiaobei looking at each other across the building. Originally, the cameras were set up on the two floors, and then they took a still shot at each other. But now that I have money, still shots are so boring, let's take an aerial shot, pull directly from this side to the opposite side, this is so impactful.

There are also sets, and in the original book of "Broken Love", there are a lot of places like hotel clubs, that is, ordinary Western restaurants and the like. But it's different now, how can ordinary places reflect the grade of the big boss, how can it reflect the identity of a rich and handsome man, right?

As a result, the restaurant where the eldest Wang talked to Huang Xiaoxian was replaced by the famous Moscow restaurant, and the club where the rich and handsome customers met the male and female protagonists was replaced by the Sihexuan on the edge of the Forbidden City...... And it's also a chartered venue.

"It's like a membership system~, it's generally not a familiar face, and it's not allowed to come in. Li Ke, a woman from southern Henan who spoke with a Hong Kong and Taiwan accent, deliberately emphasized it in a "casual" tone.

The one who plays Li Ke is not Zhang Zixuan in the original version, but a newcomer girl named Pan Zhilin. Because during this period of time, except for the cameo accident in which he took the initiative to interfere, the rest of the actors were the same as the candidates in Mu Ming's memory, so he didn't pay attention to the substitution here.

However, the role of Li Ke is also a clue character who drives the plot, there is no important role, and it is the same for whoever plays it. Besides, the original Zhang Zixuan has always been a model, not a professional actor. Although the current girl is a newcomer, she is also a serious undergraduate student of Nortel, and her acting skills are not good, at least she is passing.

Anyway, after Mu Ming finished filming the cameo scene, all the crew members were more tolerant of the actors. No matter how bad your acting skills are, can you be worse than Mu Ming?

I don't know if some of the current traffic actors are also comforting themselves in this way.

However, Mu Ming's memory in her previous life has not heard of this girl's name, and it seems that her development in her previous life was not smooth. But what puzzled Mu Ming was that although he hadn't heard of the name, he was a little familiar, which was very strange.

After recalling for a long time, Mu Ming finally had some impressions. It should still be about 13 or 14 years, and Mu Ming watched a fragment of an anti-Japanese drama. The anti-Japanese female warrior inside was caught and insulted by the devil, and then I don't know if the climax gave the female warrior strength, Thomas turned around and got up on the spot and got dressed in the air. Then at the moment of landing, he opened his bow and arrows and killed a squad of enemies in one go.

Mu Ming glanced at Pan Zhilin, who was seriously preparing the script, and estimated that this girl herself was filming this plot, and she also felt like a dog in her heart.

I really doubt that if this kind of TV series is filmed for another two years, the next generation of young people will think that the Great Celestial Empire locked up the Neon Kingdom for fourteen years before letting them go.

On that day, the people of District 11 finally remembered the fear of being once dominated by the Chinese people......

"Our schedule has been confirmed, set for November 11th. Chen Rong, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, rarely came to the set once, called Teng Huatao, Mu Ming and Wen Zhang to get together, and then spoke.

"On Singles' Day, ......," Teng Huatao sighed.

"November 11, 11, the biggest Singles' Day of the century. It just happened to be a Friday, which is a good schedule. Mu Ming took her mobile phone to check the date, and then said with satisfaction. Not to mention, this date is really good.

"Yes, that's good. Moreover, it just cooperates with the promotion of our film. Chen Rong said with a smile: "The biggest Singles' Day of this century, a lovelorn love movie, what a good topic to match." ”

"So, what about other movies in the same schedule?" Teng Huatao asked.

"Among the movies that are currently known to be released, only Hollywood's "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", which will be released on October 28, needs to be paid attention to. However, the difference between the two movies is about half a month, so it is not a big problem. ”

"Then there is "The Legend of the Hongmen Banquet" released at the end of November, which was released by Light. At that time, we had been in theaters for three weeks, and the impact was very small. Other than that, there's nothing worth noting. I have to say, our luck is really good. It is estimated that the prospects of "33 Days of Broken Love" are good, and Chen Rong's nature is particularly high.

"Eh, Uncle Wolf's "Iron Fist" will be released on the 8th of November, won't this affect us?" Mu Ming looked at the information in his hand and asked curiously.

Mu Ming watched "Iron Fist" in her previous life, which is a very good standard Hollywood movie, and with the joining of Uncle Wolf, the results should be very good. Although Mu Ming's memory of his previous life knew that "33 Days of Broken Love" had not been affected, he still wanted to learn what these professionals in the film and television company thought of it.

"It's okay, it's not a big impact. Chen Rong explained: "The themes of the two films are different, and the audience will be different, and the movie will be released in Xiangjiang in early October, and by the time it is released in the mainland, many viewers may have already seen it, or they may even have high-definition pirated versions." ”

Speaking of this, Chen Rong paused for a moment and continued: "Moreover, when these foreign films are released in China, the film schedule will not be too high, and the release key is also limited, unless there is a work like "Avatar", normally there is no need to worry. ”

"Oh, that's right. Mu Ming nodded, indeed, the restrictions on the release of foreign movies are too great. Schedule selection, piracy, film scheduling, and domestic protection all limit the market performance of foreign-language films.

But it's strange why, with so many restrictions, why are there still a large number of foreign-language films at the top of the annual box office list a few years later?
