Chapter 184: Obeying the Law
"Listeners and friends, welcome everyone to listen to Commercial One again - "Friends of New Art City", today we invited the mysterious guest of the crew of "A Chinese Ghost Story 2", the best director of the Academy Awards - Chen Jialuo, Director Chen. ”
"Director Chen, say hello to the loyal friends of Xinyi City!"
Chen Jialuo, who was wearing headphones in the live broadcast room, sat up slightly straight, habitually waved his lower arm and said, "Hello everyone, I'm Chen Jialuo." ”
Radio anchor Wu Fuhang faced Chen Jialuo, who was 'notorious', and his heart was a little restrained. After all, this guy has directly overturned many well-known paparazzi entertainment notes, and if he hadn't written the script before, he would have been afraid of a broadcast accident.
"A Chinese Ghost Story 2" is scheduled for a midnight preview next Thursday night, and friends who have drawn a test screening ticket can go to the Lisheng Theater at 9 o'clock that night to have a sneak peek. After Wu Fuhang made an advertisement for the midnight test screening, he asked with a smile: "I heard that the leaders of our commercial station have invited Director Chen many times and want to do an exclusive interview, but you have declined?"
"It's not a polite refusal, I'm shy by nature, so I'm a little restrained. Chen Jialuo said nonsense seriously, and said: "I was deceived by Shi Nansheng when I came over this time, saying that I would bring Rong Shao and Xiaoxian to advertise, but in fact they didn't come." ”
"Are you still shy?"
Looking at Chen Jialuo, who was talking eloquently, Wu Fuhang smiled awkwardly, this Nima obviously does not match the script, will a shy person suddenly play freely?
"So Director Chen didn't know that today was a separate interview, right?"
"Yes, so you try to ask around the sequel to "A Chinese Ghost Story", otherwise I may have nothing to say, and it will not be good to let the listeners of this show and your commercial station plummet......"
"Aha, Director Chen is really humorous. Wu Fuhang gave Chen Jialuo a thumbs up and asked, "I heard that Director Chen's shooting this time is different from the past, and he specially invited a Hollywood special effects team?"
"Yes. Since it is a fantasy movie, the special effects must be improved. Otherwise, if I make a doll as a monster, how can the audience have a sense of substitution?" Chen Jialuo replied very normally, not thinking that this was a great thing at all.
"When "A Chinese Ghost Story" was in the first part, the special effects were very good. For example, grandma's tongue, and later the old demon of Montenegro, the skeleton ......"
"Those were made by the new VFX team. Chen Jialuo nodded and explained: "The reason why the Hollywood team was invited over is to keep improving. Hollywood is really better than us in this regard, and we need to learn. ”
mentioned this, Chen Jialuo directly took the big backer Xinyicheng to say the matter: "Our Xinyicheng attaches importance to "introducing foreign technology to make up for the lack of its own technology", and uses high-tech means to make movies. As early as the filming of "Best Partner", we asked foreign experts to take care of car stunts, kite stunts and wire stunts. Since then, in films such as "Best Partner", only the continuous use of various high-tech can make such films more impactful. ”
Wu Fuhang nodded and said with a smile: "I remember that New Arts City spent millions of Hong Kong dollars to invite Hollywood stunt makeup master Tang Shayunni to come to Hong Kong to do stunt makeup for "Little Fear", and New Arts City sent assistants to assist...... Actually, it's stealing teachers, right?"
"Learning, only continuous learning will lead to progress. ”
Chen Jialuo and Wu Fuhang's assistants who stole the master are now well-known special effects makeup masters in Hong Kong. This strategy of stealing teachers may be inspiring to Xu Mian. A year later, when directing "The Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain", Xu Wei also hired Hollywood experts as stunt consultants, and also cultivated a group of local film stunt talents in Hong Kong through stealing teachers.
Only then did the new visual effects team of the first part of "A Chinese Ghost Story" have Chen Jialuo's blockbuster.
With his situation at the time and the film funds invested, it was simply not enough for him to invite the Hollywood special effects team to come and help. Without the team of New Vision, many scenes related to special effects may have to be greatly reduced.
"By the way, Director Chen, are the rumors that Zhang Xueyou and Qiu Shuzhen can enter the crew of the sequel to "A Chinese Ghost Story" true?" Wu Fuhang saw that Chen Jialuo was a little in-depth in terms of special effects, so he quickly shifted the topic.
There is no need to ask about the renewal of Leslie Cheung and Wang Guxian's contract, one is an actor who has signed a contract with Xinyicheng, and the other is an actor who has signed a lot of dramas with Xinyicheng, and the only thing that needs to be coordinated is the schedule.
Chen Jialuo was also very cooperative, and answered directly in the face of this gossip question: "I don't know how it is rumored in the market, Zhang Xueyou was recommended to me by Rong Shao, and after I arranged the audition, I did think that his acting skills were outstanding enough to play that role." ”
"As for Qiu Shuzhen, I met him at the café on the radio channel. By chance, I saw that her image was quite suitable for a certain role in the script, so I gave her a business card for her to audition. This role was originally intended for Miss Chen Huixian, but unfortunately she declined when she had something......"
Not only answered this question positively, but also broke out this big news, Wu Fuhang's heart blossomed, but his face was a little exaggerated and puzzled: "Really? That's a pity." ”
Chen Jialuo said noncommittally: "Well, it's a pity. ”
"After Director Chen invited Zhang Xueyou and Qiu Shuzhen, he learned that they had too much 'negative news', did you think about changing actors?"
What attracts the audience the most, of course, is the gossip of the actors or the anecdotes of the crew.
Wu Fuhang jumped out of the script a little, and looked at Chen Jialuo with some concern after asking the question. But I didn't want Chen Jialuo to say indifferently: "I have seen some true and false reports before inviting them, Zhang Xueyou's alcoholism is indeed a bad habit, and we keep persuading him, believing that he will turn back." As for Qiu Shuzhen, what a cute little girl, can you bear to attack her?"
Speaking of this, Chen Jialuo said in a self-deprecating tone: "Besides, when I was filming the first part of "A Chinese Ghost Story", there was a lot more negative news than them, didn't this also survive? After a long period of attention, I think even the paparazzi know that I am a good law-abiding citizen......
"Poof......" Wu Fuhang didn't expect Chen Jialuo to ridicule the paparazzi, and he trembled with laughter.
……
"Director Chen, let me ask you one last question. Jia ......, the director of "Leather Lantern"
Without waiting for Wu Fuhang to finish asking, Chen Jialuo waved his hand and said: "When I first heard this name, it was on Lantau Island, and a reporter asked me, and I said who was he? Later, when reporters asked me from time to time, I knew that it was broken, and a leper dog had stuck to it......
"Many people tell me that if a dog barks at you, you still can't scold you back? Chen Jialuo paused slightly, and then asked, "Are you looking forward to me scolding back next?"
"Ahem......" Wu Fuhang coughed lightly, hiding his embarrassment and said: "Look at what Director Chen said, ...... you"
