Chapter 490: Power on
Until the end of September, Liu Pian was busy preparing for the crew. Because it was the first time to shoot such a large-scale TV series, he was too busy with heavy work to spare his hands. In the past, when filming witches and chainsaws, the crew was so person-in-person, and it wasn't too easy to play, but "The Flying Thieves" is different, this drama takes a lot of time just for casting, not to mention other work.
For this reason, Liu Pian had to find someone to help.
The first thing he thought of was Xu Ran.
After the release of "Eavesdropping 2", the box office income was very good, Xu Ran has become the top police and gangster film director in Xiangjiang today, looking at the whole of China, he is the top police film director, and there are countless film companies that have asked him to cooperate. But this guy still wants to get Eavesdropping 3 out of Liu Pian, but he knows that Liu Pian has a total of three parts in his hands.
Liu Pian was also not stingy, investing in the third part as a producer and screenwriter. However, the film has not yet been put on the agenda, and filming will not start until early next year.
Liu Yi currently doesn't have time to shoot the third part.
After receiving Liu Pian's invitation, Xu Ran felt a little moved, but if he wanted to be Liu Pian's deputy, he felt that it was overkill for him to go. However, he rented his own team to Liu Pian and asked them to help Liu Pian complete the shooting. Liu Pian is no stranger to these people, after all, they have made several police movies together, and the relationship is quite good.
Liu Pian also realized that although there are stars and actors in the art world, there is no fixed team in the film and television industry, let alone the staff of the pre-shooting, and even the post-production staff. In terms of special effects production, it can be outsourced to special effects companies, and others, such as editing soundtracks, etc., Liu Pian didn't want outsiders to interfere. He is the only investor, and he is also the director, and he has full discretion to decide that the director's cut version is the final release version, and there is no need to worry about outsiders pointing fingers and adding some bizarre elements.
He was only worried about whether the radio and television would use the knife.
At the beginning of October, Liu Pian sent someone to Nortel and other major film academies to audition for actors. The requirements were also lowered and second-tier actors were invited to participate.
Second-tier actors and students are not as arrogant as first-line actors, it's not that they don't play the leading roles, and the supporting roles are also acceptable.
This made the crew gradually fuller.
But there are still not enough actors!
As a 48-episode TV series, and the "villains" change frequently, the gap in actors is too large, and it will be difficult to get together for a while.
Liu Pian didn't plan to find all the actors in one go, you can just find them while filming, anyway, it's a unit drama, the story of each episode is basically independent, most of the villains are just one episode of the scene, there is no contact before and after, and you can leave after the performance.
There will always be only five liars in the team of crooks. Occasionally, there are friends of liars in some stories who will also come to help, but these are all tricks, and there are not as many scenes as villains.
By the end of October, the crew finally had a look. Although some supporting actors are still not available, it does not affect the early filming. As a result, the art industry announced the time of the launch conference, which was set for early November.
Many media smelled the smell of "conspiracy", and did not intend to let go of this opportunity, and planned to explore Liu Pian's fiction and reality.
Let's see if it's a suspenseful crime film, or an idol drama that is actually a bloody love under a slogan.
.......
The filming location of the film was chosen by Liu Pian in Guangzhou Province, especially in Hong Kong and Macao. Needless to say, Macau is a place because there are legal casinos here, and many of the plots in the play are related to casinos. Secondly, these two places have a combination of Chinese and Western cultures, and the influence of Western culture in these two places is much deeper than in the mainland, and some plots are not so troublesome to "sinicize".
Liu Yi and the others had no objections.
Xiangjiang is his hometown, and Yuhao's forces are intertwined in Hong Kong and Macao, and many troubles encountered during filming can be easily solved. After all, these two places are special administrative regions, and their own management is different, which is different from the mainland.
"Why do I want to play Xiaofei!"
Today is the day of the launch, and the venue is a large hotel in Kyoto. Liu Yi has been complaining non-stop since he got his script. Because he plays Xiao Fei is the only newcomer in the team, and he is still a fledgling rookie who often makes mistakes. It was only in the later stage that he slowly grew up and began to preside over the production plan.
"Don't want to?" Liu Pian smiled.
"I want to play Mickey!" Liu Yi muttered. Mickey is the code name for the mastermind of the team.
"Forget it. Yan Zhe comforted on the side, "Liu Pian is a liar, and you are not." ”
Liu Pian: "...."
Are you comforting or hurting?
Regarding the five characters, Liu Pian just gave the character design, but didn't take a name, let Liu Yi and them give their characters a favorite name, and the code name is okay.
Liu Yi reluctantly took the name of Xiao Fei, Xiao Min called himself Minwen, Yan Zhe called himself the tuner, Ye Wenxuan called himself a little ghost, and Liu Pian used the homonym of the protagonist of the original work: Mickey.
Needless to say, Mickey is the mastermind of the team and is responsible for making plans. The little ghost played by Ye Wenxuan is an old man in the original book, but this can be changed, just change it to a young man's character. The little ghost is a casino veteran who likes to make thousands, so Ye Wenxuan took such a code name. In each plan, she is responsible for laying the trap and attracting the target to take the bait. Xiao Min plays the role of Min Wen is the team's "public relations", and beauty is her most powerful weapon. Yan Zhe plays the role of a tuner, who is responsible for designing the most reasonable situations and the most convenient tools to use. As for Liu Yi, a rookie, he has to learn everything.
Each member of the team has their own tasks, and at critical moments, everyone will stage a play within a play to deceive the target, gain trust, and... Money!
"Alas, for many episodes in the past, I played soy sauce. Liu Yi sighed, "As far as your scenery is concerned, it is always me who is injured." ”
Indeed, the role of Xiaofei has been painted many times, and he has really been shot.
"I also hung up. Ye Wenxuan said with a smile, "Everyone is a team, there is no need to divide who is light and who is important." ”
"Yes. Ning Tongtong pouted and said, "I'm still just a trick." ”
Ning Tongtong plays the role of the female owner of a bar, an acquaintance of a team of crooks, who often plan plans in his bar. In the original work, it was a man, but in order to let Ning Tongtong participate, Liu Pian didn't mind changing it to a woman, anyway, it didn't have any effect.
A short time later, the press conference began.
When Liu Pian and others took the stage, there were already a lot of reporters gathered below, and the lights of the camera flashed non-stop, taking pictures of Liu Pian and the six people one by one.
Journalists are going crazy. These six people, except for Ning Tongtong, who is slightly inferior, the others are so awesome that they don't want it, Liu Pian and Xiao Min are still husband and wife, and the combination of the two swords is more powerful.
A reporter asked a question:
"May I ask Mentor Liu Pian, what kind of story does "The Flying Thief" roughly tell?"
"Liar. Liu Pian spit out two words.
"???" and the reporters were stunned. What the hell?
Liu Pian emphasized again, "It's probably the story of how a group of scammers cheated money." ”
There was an uproar at the scene.
The reporters couldn't turn their heads for a while, a group of scammers?
Is it really okay for you to say that?
"Mentor Liu Pian, are you lying to us? A reporter said with a dry smile.
"It's up to you to judge. Liu Pian shrugged, "I'm a liar, aren't I? Don't you often call me Liu Liar when you give headlines to the news?"
The crowd was speechless.
"Mentor Liu Pian, I heard that this time you will direct and act yourself?"
"That's right. Liu Pian didn't mind revealing a little news, "And the script was also written by me." It's not me bragging, this drama will definitely subvert the three views of Chinese audiences. Youth, campus, love, none of these are there, only deception!
That's right, only deception!
I'm not lying, really. You're used to calling me a liar, but this time, please trust me!"
Liu Pian's sincere appearance made the reporters in the audience hesitate.
Can you really believe the words of the willow liar?
After the press conference, the gossip about "The Flying Thief" instantly spread all over the Internet.
When netizens heard that Liu Pian was going to play a liar herself, their expressions were indescribably weird.
"Liar plays liar? Mentor Liu Pian can play!"
"True colors?"
"A movie about deception? Isn't this kind of subject matter very sensitive? It won't be banned. ”
"It should be just a joke, how can it really be a plot like a liar cheating money? ”
"Hehe, Liu Liar's words, you also believe it, and I am also convinced. ”
Most people think that Liu Pian is playing tricks, and it is impossible to really make a TV series about fraud.
Liu Pian burst into tears after seeing the reaction on the Internet.
In these years, no one believes the truth.....
