Chapter 355: Shameless
It is reported that the new film of my country's well-known actor Gan Jing will not be released in China. According to multiple sources, the content of the film is difficult to pass the review. Losing the domestic box office this time, Gan Jing may suffer Waterloo. ”
Smack, turn off the TV.
Ding, turn on the computer.
According to our exclusive report, Forrest Gump responded to the mainland media, he thought there was no problem with the film and said that he was very confident in the box office. Please see the detailed report of the Treasure Island Herald......"
This time the computer was not turned off.
Looking at Forrest Gump talking to the microphone on the screen with relish, Li Yuyi was a little distressed, Forrest Gump seemed to have lost weight, he must have worked very hard.
The exclusive report across the strait has ended, and Li Yuyi still hasn't closed the browser, she thought about renewing the VPN fee first, and then Google it.
The relevant search results for "Gan Jing's new film" quickly popped up on the screen.
Li Yuyi browsed one by one, and for the first time knew the system of mainland films quite accurately.
Hey, isn't this a monopoly! What kind of Chinese film is really annoying! Why can't it be released!! do you want to support it as soon as possible, and you have to go abroad to watch it!!???
The girl was a little crazy, but after thinking about it, she could go back to Hong Kong to watch it, and she could watch it in Hong Kong, which is generally not available in the mainland.
Anita Lee was in a slightly better mood and began to worry about the box office of Forrest Gump's movie.
If the movie can't be released in the mainland, it will lose a lot of box office, although the news is not good, but it is indeed a fact.
With the attention to Forrest Gump, Anita Lee has an in-depth understanding of box office issues.
Huaxia is now the third largest box office in the world, and it is expected to surpass Neon Country next year or the year after...... Now that such a box office has suddenly been lost, how much more can the box office have?
And this drama is still foreign, will it have an impact on him in Hollywood?
Li Yuyi's worries are not unreasonable, Forrest Gump, as a rare yellow skin mixed in Hollywood, he is naturally labeled as helping to increase the value of the Huaxia ticket warehouse, and once he loses this label, he is likely to be affected by the chain effect.
Similarly, some people within China Film also have such expectations and plans, some of them are out of some small festivals before, and some people feel offended.
People in high positions or with a certain amount of power often have a desire to control, and people like Gan Jing, who are rapidly becoming popular, will be unaccustomed to some people even if there is no substantive conflict.
……
"Come on, let's get to know each other, this is our protagonist Gan Jing. Just call him Forrest Gump. ”
In the film and television base in Taipei, Li An pulled Gan Jing and officially introduced the protagonist in front of the whole crew, if the plan remains unchanged, everyone will have to film, shoot and work together in the next few months.
Gan Jing clasped his hands together, waved his arms, and greeted everyone with a smile.
There are few actors here, but there are many staff.
Ninety percent of Gan Jing's scenes in "Life of Pi" are one-man shows, where he has to face an empty boat and imagine and interact with special effects animals that exist on it.
I have to say that this is quite a test of an actor's basic skills.
On the first day after returning to Treasure Island, Gan Jing communicated with the director after a short rest, and then met with everyone the next day, which was considered to be the official joining group and starting filming.
The weight loss plan has basically been achieved, and his current body shape is almost in line with the director's imagination, but before filming begins, Gan Jing needs to be painted by a makeup artist on his body.
Although Gan Jing really wants to play his skin color, whether it is the original book or the setting of the script, he is Indian, and he can't make such a big change to the script, which will involve the entire character and the setting of the story.
From his debut to almost every play to the present, Gan Jing needs to "dress up to attend", if it is really calculated in terms of contact time, I am afraid that the makeup artist will be closer to Gan Jing than the director.
However, the image of Pi is still different from any of the characters he has played before.
Body shape, hair, skin color, and tone of speech, these are all things that need to be changed by Gan Jing, although it is awkward, but it must be adapted.
In the film and television base, in the past half day in the morning, Gan Jing was watching how the people of Huaxia special effects communicated with the director team in addition to makeup.
Better special effects must have preconditions, unique cameras, camera placement, clip connection... All of this requires close and good communication between the special effects producer and Ang Lee.
Because of Secretary-General Gan Jinggan's special status, he also has a share in this part of communication.
Since it is communication, there are good and bad, Ang Lee is very impatient that the actor in his play has to mix with off-screen affairs, which is a situation he has not encountered before, but ...... To love someone is to accept their shortcomings......
The actor he chose should be used with tears.
"Lao Xu, why is the position of this camera placed like this?"
"Director, is this supposed to be the case?"
"Drama, drama, come on. ”
In the film and television base, a well-known actor whose complexion was painted as a black guy jumped up and down, which stuffed Ang Lee's heart.
After lunch, Gan Jing's role can officially start filming, and Ang Lee is finally going to start happy.
"Take it off. Ang Lee didn't sit in his director's position, he hugged his arms with a hint of pride and said narrowly.
Gan Jing was a little squirming, there were really many people at the scene, men, women and children, and their eyes were all on him at the moment.
"Hurry up, what's the matter, aren't you still in good spirits this morning?" Ang Lee scoffed.
Hey, it's better to be a director, as long as you move your mouth and wave your hand, an actor like himself has to overcome this emotion and trouble, just to be strong.
The fluctuations in Gan Jing's heart flashed, and finally disappeared without a trace.
He untied his clothes and slowly took them off, the temperature in May was already very high, but the air without clothes to cover the skin still aroused goosebumps.
Shirtless, and wearing only a pair of shorts underneath, Gan Jing has a feeling that he is almost naked in front of everyone.
"Take a turn and show you, um, this is to dispel the shyness that you just had that was evident, Forrest Gump, you obviously shouldn't be in front of the camera. Li An said in a relaxed tone, and then asked the assistant director in a loud voice, "Come, take a few photos of Forrest Gump's current image and save it, which can be used as tidbits for publicity later." ”
Having said all this, it's not like you're trying to hide your purpose...... Gan Jing sighed, but he also knew that he was indeed a little uncomfortable with being naked in front of the camera like this.
He silently spun around a few times, and quickly began to adjust to himself under the camera.
Well, actors are like that, sometimes they just have to be shameless.
In other words, the psychological quality is good.
