Chapter 169: Watching the Film
Yang Yu didn't make it to the award ceremony twice, but it made many people feel stunned, because they missed two opportunities to go on the red carpet.
Among them, Tong Yali's performance was the most obvious, this girl reminded him openly and secretly that he was going to the award ceremony, but he refused.
He doesn't care much about the Magnolia Award, he didn't get the nomination for the Huaxia Golden Melody Award, and he really didn't want to go all the way to present awards to others, and he had to watch others be in the limelight.
But even if he was filming so hard, He Shucai of Galaxy Pictures still kept urging the filming progress, because according to his ideas, "Dragon Gate Inn" is ready to be released in the summer of this year.
He Shucai reminded him that if he couldn't finish the filming, he wouldn't be able to catch up with the release event.
The specific release event, Yang Yu hopes that it will be July 15, because Vientiane Pictures has announced that it will release Wu Ke's new film "The Ballad of the Desert" a week later on July 22.
It can also be seen from this that he hopes that "Dragon Gate Inn" will be released at this time, and he is rushing to fight "The Ballad of the Desert".
Seeing that it is almost June, almost all the scenes in "Dragon Gate Inn" have been filmed, but there is only one set of shots left that makes it difficult for the entire crew.
In the dream world, in the original movie, the rebel factory and Zhou Huai'an had a fight scene in the desert.
In the wind, the yellow sand was all over the sky, and the two of them had been holding a long sword all the time, and the fight was dark and exciting.
But in reality, it is difficult to hold a steel sword and stand on the sand dunes to fight so beautifully, but it is difficult for the two leading actors and martial arts instructors.
The weapon in your hand is too heavy, and the sand under your feet is empty, and if you are not careful, you will not fight so beautifully.
After several experiments, the two of them looked not very satisfied with the camera.
At this moment, the director of photography, Song Cunnian, suddenly said: "I don't think it's as good as this, when you are in the close-up scene, the two of you will use real swords, and in the long shot, we will find two wooden sticks to wrap reflective paper, because the audience can't see it at all." ”
Hearing Song Cunnian's words, the two suddenly felt that it was feasible, and just like that, the scene where the two fought down from the sand dunes, it seemed that their hands were shining with silver, but in fact they were just wooden sticks wrapped in reflective paper.
When this scene was finally filmed, Yang Yu blew the sand into his mouth despite the strong wind, and shouted loudly: "It's finished, I'll invite everyone to have a good meal in the city!"
When the others heard this, they also cheered, after all, after soaking in this desert for almost three months, everyone had already had enough.
That night, the entire crew ate and drank under the leadership of Yang Yu, and played until midnight before they broke up.
Early the next morning, Yang Yu rushed back to Yanjing to start post-production with all the finished pictures.
Because he was using digital photography, post-production was more convenient, but it wasn't easy to get it done before it was released.
In addition to editing, this film also needs sound effects, dubbing, simple special effects processing and other processes.
Although the editing part has the help of a well-known editor sent by Galaxy Entertainment, although Yang Yu is a layman to editing, he still has to pay attention to the whole process, and he still hopes that this movie will be presented according to his ideas.
In the process of participating in the editing, he also had to improve the soundtrack production of this movie, although there are not many soundtracks of the original movie in the dream world, but they all echo the feeling of desert desolation, especially a few Northwest folk songs, which must be preserved as they are.
And during the second period, Galaxy Entertainment also settled some accounts for him, including the box office income of "People in Embarrassment", the income of the last few rounds of broadcast rights of "Full House of Romance", and the income of related peripherals, a total of 350 million Chinese coins.
After the money arrived, Yang Yu repaid the loan sharks as soon as possible, after all, he was heartbroken to see the interest.
Of the remaining money, he invested another 100 million yuan in the newly established game company as the promotion cost of the game "Glory of Heroes", which has completed domestic testing and is ready to be officially operated.
In fact, the operation of the game "Glory of Heroes" abroad has been very successful, and he spent 600 million Huaxia coins to acquire 80% of the company's shares, which can be regarded as a big profit.
However, most of the profits made abroad are used to expand servers and game promotion, and there is actually no dime in his hands, but looking at the development momentum of this game, making money is obviously in front of him.
After finishing all this, he naturally didn't forget to wrap a big red envelope for the main creators of "People in Embarrassment", Xu Zheng, Wang Baogen, Gao Qun and others all have it.
Among them, he gave Xu Zheng the largest red envelope, and directly stuffed a check for three million, which also led to Xu Zheng's very enthusiastic decision to tinker with the second script of "People in Embarrassment".
Of course, Xu Zheng also hoped that Yang Yu could help with his opinions, but unfortunately Yang Yu was too busy with his "Dragon Gate Inn", so how could he have time to be a staff officer for Xu Zheng.
In this way, Yang Yu worked hard until the beginning of July, and finally made the finished product of the movie "Dragon Gate Inn".
Seeing that there were not many days left for the release event, Yang Yu hurriedly organized representatives of Galaxy Entertainment and Star Media, as well as representatives of other theaters, to prepare for the film viewing meeting.
Galaxy Entertainment, as Yang Yu's owner, has shown considerable importance to Yang Yu's new film, and it was He Shucai, the general manager of the film, who came directly.
And Star Media also showed great importance to Yang Yu, and Xu Fengzhu also sent her assistant Lin to come in person.
When the movie started, the costumes of the characters on the screen, as well as the exquisite scenery, made everyone's eyes shine.
Everyone who watched the film thought in their hearts, not to mention the storyline of this movie, but in terms of production, it is definitely excellent, and it is obvious that Yang Yu has spent a lot of money on it.
And when the first action scene of Zhou Huai'an's assassination of the officials of the East Factory began, all the watchers lit up in their eyes, this kind of whimsical, chic and elegant fight was simply amazing.
After the scene came to the appearance of Yuhuatian played by Yang Yu, the charm in the different and domineering momentum made people forget that he was playing a eunuch.
These filmmakers are almost certain that when this movie is released, even if the character of Yang Yu is a villain, it will definitely be sought after by fans.
Next, when the plot developed step by step, even everyone who watched the film couldn't help but fall into it, intoxicated by this piece of painting sand, and experienced the love, hate, life, and death in the play.
Qiu Moyan died, Yuhuatian also died, under the sunset in the desert, the rest of the people embarked on their own journeys, everyone started in the rivers and lakes, but forgot about each other in the rivers and lakes.
At the end of the Northwest folk song singing, He Shucai stood up, and this usually calm woman applauded loudly, making no secret of her appreciation for this drama.
Under the leadership of He Shucai, other filmmakers also applauded enthusiastically, and they also believed that this was an excellent martial arts film and an epoch-making martial arts movie.
