Chapter 138: Boot (II)
The next day was still a day off, because the crew had to be busy setting up the scene and recruiting extras.
The whole crew has a few actors and Xu Tian, who is the big boss, who has nothing to do and can communicate and chat with each other in the hotel suite, and occasionally listen to Xu Tian talk about the places that should be paid attention to in this film, this is a rather discordant picture, a group of people who are as young as twenty-two or three years old, and the oldest is nearly half a hundred years old, just sitting there honestly listening to a childish young man's tirade - and acting very seriously.
"Our film, as long as some exaggerated elements are perfectly reflected, so that the audience can laugh while being nervous and afraid, then we have succeeded. ”
Sitting among a few actors who were sitting on the sofa and listening, Xu Tian made a gorgeous summary, "This "Mr. Zombie" will definitely become the most successful movie of all time, and it will also be the pioneering work of the new theme of psychedelic kung fu and the new theme of zombies, everyone do a good job, believe me, I will definitely come up with a score that will surprise everyone." ”
I didn't hear any echoes, no wonder, although several people who participated in the performance didn't say it on the surface, they all understood in their hearts that the current lineup, starring Zhou Fengtai is an outdated eighteenth-tier old drama bone, the male number two Xu Tian is a rookie in the music industry who has just debuted, regardless of popularity, whether there is acting or not is two to say, the only one who can get his hands is the male No. 3 Huang Zhihua, who is just a cross talk actor who has just gotten up for a long time, and his popularity is far from being as high as Xu Tian.
As for the two heroines, there is nothing to say, they are completely amateurs, and they don't have their own traffic at all.
With such a team that looks like four people, how can we talk about making the most successful movie ever?
Besides, I have never heard of zombies in Azure Star, and this kind of amateur theme with no successful precedent is not bad if it is not the most popular to shoot it. I also heard that this time, the producer, Xu Tian himself, has strong financial resources and invested a lot of costs, which barely brought a little hope to this film.
Anyway, several actors here have similar thoughts in their hearts, they are not very optimistic about this film, and they didn't rush to participate in the show, just to make money.
Only Yang Xue held her cheeks with her little hands, a smile on the corner of her mouth, and watched Xu Tian dancing with her hands with bright eyes, gladly accepting the brainwashing.
In her mind, Xu Tian is different, he is the first person to recognize his ability and talent, with his vision, since he has concluded that this film can have great achievements, it will not be disappointed!
Although others are not very optimistic, Xu Tian also knows that it is good if they don't say anything to ridicule themselves at this time, after all, he gave so much money generously, even if this group of people mutters in their hearts, they still pretend to be very convinced on the surface, but Xu Tian doesn't care, whether you are not optimistic, you despise me for bragging, and when the results come out, everyone will naturally understand that what they said today is an established fact, and it is not simply to fight chicken blood for the sake of chicken blood.
The next day, everything was ready, and "Mr. Zombie" was officially launched.
Whether it is on the earth or in the Azure Star, the crew has a convention, or it can also be said to be an unwritten rule, that is, before starting the film, you must first put an incense burner to worship together, beware of offending some local cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, so as to cause trouble, many laymen think that this is a superstitious tradition, but this habit has been continued by so many crews over the generations, and there are always some inexplicable doorways, so the general crew does not dare to ignore the experience of the ancestors and ancestors to cross this procedure, after all, existence is reasonable。
So when Xu Tian said that he wouldn't do that, everyone in the crew was a little puzzled except for the two beautiful amateurs, didn't they burn incense and worship Buddha when they turned on?
Xu Tian didn't explain much, it is true that the crew often needs to shoot in some old sites or in the field, which is easy to attract the attention of some dirty things in the local area, especially when filming these things that are chattering about gods, it is easy to commit the taboo of those things.
Isn't there often someone on the earth who mentions some supernatural events behind the scenes of the filming of "Mr. Zombie", saying that some of the actors in it, including the leading actor Lin Zhengying, died young and did not die well, just because they violated some unspeakable existence during the filming of the film.
Ghosts are often called but lingering, which is why many people mention ghosts when they walk at night in the middle of the night, and even when they think of ghosts, they will stand upside down and have a chilling feeling - when you have this feeling, congratulations, that's not an illusion, this is a physiological reaction caused by something dirty approaching you, usually when you have this feeling, there is indeed a dirty thing sensing your mental activity approaching.
There are gods and ghosts, of course, but those incense and other things are just an indicator that the gods and Buddhas came up with in order to collect the power of faith, in order to judge how much the power of their faith has accumulated, this incense itself does not have any effect, let alone can drive away ghosts and spirits.
Otherwise, how could some crews who had burned incense still encounter terrible supernatural events?
Of course, that kind of situation is absolutely impossible for Xu Tian's crew.
With him, an immortal cultivator at the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining (who just broke through a while ago), and he is from the fire spirit system, those lonely souls and wild ghosts will flee far away when they see his surging masculine fire from afar, where will they come to make a mistake?
Besides, as a generation of red dust immortals, what strange forces and chaos gods in this world are worthy of him bowing and worshipping?
Don't burn incense, don't worship Buddha.
Exempt from these clichéd superstitious procedures, this is one of the privileges of his Xu Daxian starting point crew.
Since the God of Wealth has said that there is no need to burn incense and worship Buddha, no one in the entire crew dares to object, anyway, many people are troublesome to burn incense and worship Buddha, and born in the 21st century, people don't respect these feudal superstitions very much.
As a result, "Mr. Zombie" also went straight into the workflow.
On July 29, "Mr. Zombie", directed by Xu Tian, officially started shooting on Treasure Island. ”
Soon, the group photo of the on-site start-up was put on the Internet, and it suddenly became a hot topic, Weibo, Baidu, and major forums posted bars, and many comments from netizens emerged.
"I'm a real all-rounder! I'm amazing! I love him more and more!"
"My husband is amazing, I wish my film debut "Mr. Zombie" a big hit!"
"Best wishes, everyone!"
Even those who are not fans of Xu Tian were stunned: "I'll go, does this Xu Tian have such great ability?"
Of course, there are also many people who are weird: "Singing and writing books? This is also going to be a movie? Are you too busy?"
"I want to do anything, but most of the time I can't do anything. ”
"A 17-year-old kid can shoot something good and make a splash. ”
