Chapter 20: A Sudden Crusade

For almost a week, not to mention the matter of leaving the script, just because of the casting of the male and female protagonists, the movie studio made a fuss, and all kinds of gossip flew around.

However, as Zhang Baorong and Wang Xiaoxian completed their makeup attempts and took makeup photos, everyone had to sigh at Chen Jialuo's vision. Anyway, in this matter, the dispute between the director and the producer is nothing more than for the film.

With the male and female protagonists done, the rest of the characters will not have so many ups and downs. The only role of Yan Chixia, who has contradictions and plays a heavy role, is that Xu You has a disagreement with Chen Jialuo and Chen Xiaodong in terms of actors.

In the face of the producer and director's strong request for the old drama bone Wu Ma to play Yan Chixia, Xu You naturally made concessions with tears and laughter.

A casting drama came to an end, and although some of them were fast, the ending was still happy.

In fact, at the beginning of casting, the filming preparations for "A Chinese Ghost Story" were in an orderly manner. Now that the actors have been preliminarily decided, what Chen Xiaodong and Chen Jialuo need to care about is the scene layout, personnel team assignment, and so on.

"Ah Luo, how is the arrangement of Lanruo Temple on Lantau Island?"

Chen Jialuo nodded and said, "No problem, Zhongwen and I have already gone over to watch it a few times." ”

Most of the location shooting in Hong Kong was set on Lantau Island. There are not many places where the palm is the size of the Xiangjiang River can have dense forests, mountains and lakes, and Lantau Island is one of the most well-known filming locations.

The most important shooting scene of "A Chinese Ghost Story", the layout of Lanruo Temple, is naturally the top priority. But it's easy for you to build a staff dormitory, an actor's locker room, or something, but it's a joke to build a temple directly.

Therefore, after discussion, Chen Jialuo and Chen Xiaodong finally decided to find a deserted temple for decoration. As for a lot of the filming inside, it will actually be put elsewhere.

"By the way, you should come to the martial arts instructor yourself this time, right?"

Although Chen Jialuo doesn't believe in Chen Xiaodong's directing level, Chen Jialuo still recognizes the other party's level of martial arts instruction.

may have talked about Chen Xiaodong's pride, nodded and said: "Our film, I must be in person, and I will discuss it with Guo Chai when the time comes." ”

Chen Jialuo and Chen Xiaodong have obviously different ideas, since you still have to be a martial arts instructor, then many times directing and filming will be lacking. When the time comes, I will still have the opportunity to sit in front of the camera and have a good time.

"In terms of the special effects team, Xiaodong should be quite familiar with it. When the time comes, you must ask them to use dim sum, we are a costume ghost movie, and the special effects are a big plus. ”

Chen Xiaodong patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Ah Luo, I am a director myself, and I must be interested." ”

Chen Jialuo said with a smile, and he was extremely jealous of Xu You's special effects team. When Xu You filmed "The Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain", he invited the special effects team of Hollywood's "Star Wars", and the box office hit the streets, but the smart Xu You arranged for filmmakers in Xiangjiang to start stealing teachers.

Therefore, the local special effects team in Xiangjiang now, Xu You's one is outstanding. "A Chinese Ghost Story" needs a lot of special effects when filming, and this special effects team just pulls it out and makes good use of it.

Now that the Spring Festival is approaching, the shooting time is naturally scheduled after the holiday. During this free time, Chen Jialuo happened to arrange various matters for the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

In the final analysis, supervising production is his own job, and he needs to check all kinds of overall planning and budgets from time to time.

……

Xue Ni: Chen Jialuo is a beast with a human face and a heart of a beast, and when he was filming "Mong Kok Night", he wanted to untly rule me, suggesting that I could add a role to me by accompanying him for a few nights, but I sternly refused. When I signed the contract for filming, I actually had a lot of roles in the script. But because of this, after the release of "Mong Kok Night", I found out that the scenes about myself were cut into a mess, and it was even worse than the supporting role ...... - "Banana Weekly"

"The 'unspoken rules' of the entertainment industry have always existed, and the ugly face in the shadows!"

"Disappeared for two years, suspected scandal exposed!"

"The old employees of Yidu kicked out, Chen Jialuo has been fussy about Xue Ni on the set!"

……

Led by Banana Weekly, the largest gossip media in Xiangjiang, and followed by countless gossip newspapers and magazines, the rumors that Chen Jialuo intended to uncover Xueni were completely released.

There has been no news about Zhang Baorong and Wang Xiaoxian joining "A Chinese Ghost Story", and various rumors about producer Chen Jialuo began to detonate Xiangjiang.

If the previous news, scripts, or actors' choices were limited to movie disputes, then this unspoken rule incident is a matter of moral discipline.

A director wants to untly rule an actress, but because of the actress's refusal, the heroine's role is not as good as the supporting role.

There is a little flower of Jiali TV Station Xue Ni who appeared to say, and many so-called old employees of the former art capital came out to corroborate, in the eyes of ordinary people, this is a true thing!

Soon, during the filming of "Night in Mong Kok", Chen Jialuo insulted Zhou Jin and other actors for no reason, kicked out the assistant director who fought for reason, and other news that had been hyped up a few days ago.

This kind of thing may have happened before, and insiders know more or less about it. But in the eyes of the public, Chen Jialuo is the first brazen person. Many citizens even rented the DVD of "Mong Kok Night" for this purpose, and went home to take a closer look at how many scenes Xue Ni played.

As a result, many of the "Mong Kok Night" videotapes were turned out, making Chan Ka-lok's first work a well-known movie.

But most people watch this movie with colored glasses, it doesn't matter if you don't watch it, it's really not worth it for Xue Ni to watch it. has Zhou Jin as the protagonist, and the shooting is not bad. Especially Xue Ni, a lovely actress, her acting skills are okay, but there are few scenes. This Chen Jialuo is really shameless, the scum of the scum.

After watching "Mong Kok Night", many people's impression of Chen Jialuo is arrogant, tyrannical, and lustful.

There are even many radical Xueni fans who go to Yidu, and Xu You's film studio blocks the door. On the one hand, he is ready to arrest Chen Jialuo and scold him, and on the other hand, he strongly asks the film industry to completely ban 'Chen Jialuo'.

For a while, Chen Jialuo became a street rat that everyone shouted and beaten.

The brewing storm swept through, with Chen Jialuo as the center, and completely spread outward. Several bigwigs in Yidu, the staff who have worked with Chen Jialuo, and Zhou Jin and others were blocked by entertainment reporters to interview on this matter.

Originally, it was just a small matter, but I didn't expect it to brew into such a big turmoil. Even Mr. Lei, the owner of Lei Zhen Cinema Line, had to call Yidu Film Company and the film studio to inquire about the matter.

Among them, the most influential is the film studio and Xu You.
