Chapter 45 Filming "I Am a Special Soldier"
However, at this time, Lin Feng no longer had the heart to pay attention to these, because "I Am a Special Soldier" had already been launched. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The filming locations of this TV series are mainly concentrated in Yanjing, the military camp, and a small town on the southern border.
The first scene to start filming is naturally the scene of the protagonist Xiaozhuang in Yanjing.
Although "I Am Special Forces" did not hold a grand press conference for reporters, some reporters still heard about Lin Feng's new filming, but they didn't know Lin Feng's specific filming location.
However, after a few days of shooting, Lin Feng's filming location was still found by the media.
In the variety show broadcast on Phoenix TV last time, when Lin Feng was interviewed by Li Ruolan, he also revealed that his new drama was a TV series.
At the beginning, people in the entertainment industry thought that Lin Feng was joking, a movie had a domestic box office of more than 500 million, and then went back to make a TV series, who would believe it?
And now, through the exposure of media reporters, people in the entertainment industry have to admit that what Lin Feng said turned out to be true.
The idea of genius cannot be measured by ordinary people!
An old alley in Yanjing, the houses and facilities around the alley are very old and destroyed at a glance, green moss can be seen everywhere, and some telephone poles are still pasted with small advertisements, which makes people come here and think they are back in the 80s!
Xiaozhuang's alternative residence in the play is here, which is also a very important location.
When Lin Feng was preparing to start this TV series, he had already made people start looking for a suitable place, rented it for decoration, and now the filming has started, just in time.
Today's scene is the scene where the girl's mother asks Xiaozhuang to say that her superior conditions are rejected, and this scene has very high requirements for Lin Feng.
At the shooting scene, the makeup artist was putting the finishing touch-up on Lin Feng.
Long hair, full of artistic style, T-shirt, denim, sneakers, full of decadent youth feeling.
The middle-aged actress who played the girl's mother is still reading the lines with the script.
Lin Feng touched his long hair and felt uncomfortable, there was no way that now Xiaozhuang is a decadent young man with long hair engaged in film art, his hair was cut off after he played Hua Ze, and now his hair length is not enough at all, so he can only wear a wig.
After a while, Bian Mingcheng walked up to Lin Feng with the microphone and said, "Director Lin, everything is fine." ”
"Hmm!" Lin Feng nodded, at this time he had already put on his makeup, so he looked around, and all the arrangements were in place.
The current Lin Feng is no longer the Lin Feng when he just started filming "Family with Children", after several TV series and two movies, it can be said that he is now perfect for the control of the crew.
Even if there is no Bian Mingcheng to help him control it, Lin Feng will not have any problems if he comes alone, but he will become very tired when he controls the crew alone.
After all, it's just a work that he directed and acted in, and he really needs an assistant director to help him take charge of the camera.
It didn't take long for filming to begin.
Lin Feng's whole person exuded a decadent temperament, but there was still a trace of pride and dignity in his eyes, and he said sincerely to the girl's mother: "If you have anything to say, you can say it directly." ”
At this moment, Lin Feng seemed to be incarnated as Xiao Zhuang in the play, without too many movements, just a few simple eyes and expressions, he vividly portrayed Xiao Zhuang's embarrassment of an older young man who had nothing to do.
Bian Mingcheng saw Lin Feng's performance through the picture in the camera behind, and couldn't help but admire the talent of his young boss.
It's only been a long time since I finished filming "My Sassy Girlfriend" last time, less than two months, and Lin Feng's acting skills in this play have improved again, and now he is comfortable playing Xiaozhuang, without any difficulty.
The girl's mother smiled faintly, her expression was kind, but the innate wealth and gorgeousness on her body made people feel uncomfortable, "I said, as long as you don't want to hurt her, I will never interfere in the matter between you!"
.。。
"You studied art?"
"Have you ever thought about going abroad?"
"Go to the United States to develop, you and the girl go to the United States to develop together... You go to the United States with her, and I'll help you contact the film department of the University of Southern California, which is the best film department in the United States, as for whether you can be together in the future, I don't care, as long as the girl is happy, I will be happy. ”
"Well? I'm an open-minded parent. ”
Although the girl's mother did not have any malice, and there was no sense of domineering in her words, the sense of superiority in her body and the meaning of arranging everything for Xiaozhuang in her words still hurt a man's dignity.
At this time, this scene is also the most critical time, and everything depends on Lin Feng's play.
Xiao Zhuang, played by Lin Feng, heard the words of the girl's mother, his face suddenly flushed a little, both like excitement and indignation, in short, it was an indescribable complex expression.
Seeing this expression on Lin Feng's face, Bian Mingcheng, who had been nervously watching the picture behind the camera, immediately waved his fist happily, silently expressing his excitement.
In this scene, Lin Feng's expression was really amazing.
"I won't send you!"
"You are the girl's mother, if you say more, I won't say it anymore. ”
.。。
"Every step of my life has been taken by myself, it was like this before, it is like this now, and I will continue to walk like this in the future!"
"I'm just an ordinary person now, I can have nothing, but I still want my dignity. ”
When Lin Feng's eyes flashed with unyielding will, but he maintained an indifferent expression, after saying this, the scene reporter immediately shouted: "It's over!"
At this time, everyone around couldn't help but applaud Lin Feng's performance, Lin Feng's performance in this scene was really exciting.
Not far away, two young beautiful women were also applauding, one of them was the female number one of "I Am Special Forces", that is, the actress selected by the army, I saw her say to another actress next to her: "Lin Da's performance in this scene is really wonderful, alas, I don't know when I will reach this level." ”
The girl's name Feng didn't realize it, this time she was able to pass the selection of the army art troupe, and was finally selected by Lin Feng, it was a step to the sky for her, it was really surprising, even if she herself still felt like a dream.
Feng Bujue, as a member of the army's art troupe, naturally knows very well how sensational the selection of the appropriate female number one is in the art troupe, not to mention the art troupe where she is located, and the art troupes under other branches of the military are fighting for this role.
However, it didn't work, all the actors who were considered excellent and outstanding were vetoed by Lin Feng, who was known as a genius director.
Even, Feng Bujue also heard that Director Lin Feng slapped the table with several masters of the military art troupe and said that if he couldn't choose a suitable actress from the art troupe, he was ready to select an actress who matched the role from outside.
Because of this, the art troupe expanded the scope of casting and included some young actors.
In this way, Feng Bujue's photo was taken by Lin Feng, and then through several auditions, the big pie of the female number one smashed on her head, which surprised all the actors in the art troupe, and after she was selected, Feng Bujue felt that the eyes of the people around her looked at her completely different from before.
There are envy, jealousy, and encouragement, in short, since she was selected as the female number one in the TV series "I Am Special Forces", Feng unconsciously feels that all the people around him have changed.
But fortunately, although this little girl is young, she is not a person who admits defeat.
At the beginning, after several shouts to stop, she memorized the lines without sleeping or eating, pondered the hearts of the characters in the play, and asked some actors with good acting skills around her for advice, and slowly coped with it.
At this time, Lin Feng, who had just finished filming, came to the camera, looked at the footage he had taken with Bian Mingcheng just now, and after watching it, he nodded and said, "Well, prepare for the next scene!"
After speaking, Lin Feng saw Feng Bujue looking at him with a look of admiration, and immediately changed his face and shouted to her: "Don't hurry up and prepare, you will have your role in the next scene!"
"Oh, okay!" Feng didn't feel panicked, and immediately turned his head with a blushing face, and took the script to prepare.
Another actor also followed Feng and left quickly.
"It's a good seedling, Director Lin, don't scare her so much. At this time, Bian Mingcheng next to him said.
"Jade can't be cut into a weapon!" Lin Feng said with an old-fashioned look, and then he himself felt funny and happy: "This girl is indeed a good seedling, so after this TV series, she is still the protagonist in the following sequel, and of course she has to hone her now!"
"What?sequel?" Bian Mingcheng looked at Lin Feng in surprise.
"Of course this TV series has to make a sequel!" Lin Feng said as a matter of course.
Bian Mingcheng looked at Lin Feng with a shocked expression, he really didn't expect that before the TV series was filmed, Lin Feng began to think about the sequel shooting.
So ambitious? Young and vigorous?
At least Bian Mingcheng won't agree with this statement now, he has never seen this in Lin Feng, he only sees confidence, infinite confidence.
It seems that in this teenager, there is never a saying of failure, there are only successes and miracles.
Bian Mingcheng has also read the script of "I Am a Special Soldier", to be honest, the plot and various settings in it, although it is relatively novel, he does not feel very special.
Or maybe it's just a cool and sensational commercial TV series.
Even so, Bian Mingcheng still did not doubt Lin Feng's self-confidence, and even in his heart, he was infected by Lin Feng's self-confidence, and would think that this TV series would inevitably become popular and would continue to shoot a sequel.
Seeing Bian Mingcheng's surprised appearance, Lin Feng smiled faintly, didn't explain anything, Lao Cheng patted Bian Mingcheng on the shoulder, and began to prepare for the next scene.
In fact, when this alternative military TV series was broadcast in the previous life, not many people were optimistic about this TV series at the beginning, and even when it was first broadcast, it caused some disgust from the military.
Because there are too many grievances and hatreds in it, the army should be a soldier, a pure soldier.
Moreover, in the play, the male protagonist also killed the heroine by mistake, and this kind of 'rebellious' plot made the mainstream media complain.
However, this TV series is popular, the red one makes no sense, and the red one is a mess.
Why?
After some professionals through excavation and research, they finally found the reason for the popularity of this TV series.
The same military-themed TV series has been filmed one after another, and the image is always tall and complete, and it will always be the perfect hero image.
Don't say that the audience wants to vomit when they watch it, that is, the director and actors also want to vomit when they shoot it, so when the TV series "I Am a Special Soldier" depicts a flesh-and-blood image of a soldier from another aspect, especially the special forces who have been mystified by various reports, they will have the same emotions as ordinary people, and even they are not invincible, and there are times when they fail.
This refreshing military image plot caused a ratings frenzy as soon as it was broadcast, and even attracted a large part of the post-90s audience to become loyal viewers of the show.
You must know that with the development of the Internet and technology, the new generation of the post-90s generation will basically not choose the backward entertainment method of TV, and this TV series has attracted the post-90s generation to the TV, you can imagine the charm of this TV series.
The most important thing is the ratings frenzy caused by this TV series, the social impact it has brought about by the fact that the number of young students who signed up for the army and wanted to be special forces has skyrocketed, and this result has made many military region bigwigs lose their glasses.
It's amazing.
As a result, the second and third parts of "I Am Special Forces" were filmed, and the shooting style also continued the bloody and cool of the first part.
Especially the various alternative shots of the Fire Phoenix female special forces in the third part, which made countless people stunned.
Therefore, for the sake of the sequel, Lin Feng will of course have unaware requirements for Feng now, and suddenly become very high,
However, Lin Feng's strict requirements for Feng Unconsciously are a bit unkind in the eyes of others, and for a while, many actors, especially those from the military art troupe, looked at Lin Feng's eyes a little unkindly.
If it weren't for Lin Feng leading by example, he would have let Bian Mingcheng keep talking about Feng unconsciously in his spare time, and guide this newcomer to various performance experiences, so that everyone could see that Lin Feng would be so strict with her because he valued Feng Bujue, and it is estimated that the actors from the art troupe would have come out unconsciously for Feng unconsciously.
Feng didn't feel that he faced Lin Feng's strict requirements, and he also knew that the director was right about things and not people, and this was also important to her, especially Bian Mingcheng and Lin Feng's demonstration of her acting skills, which benefited her a lot.
Therefore, even if Feng didn't feel that when he was subjected to Lin Feng's harsh and straightforward requirements, the military temperament of the little girl also exploded, and she didn't cry out for bitterness, she studied the plot day and night, and as long as she was free, she pulled the old actor to ask for all kinds of acting experience to make up for her own shortcomings.
Lin Feng saw Feng Bujue's situation, and nodded secretly in his heart, this girl is definitely a talent that can be created, if it weren't for her relationship in the art troupe, but in other entertainment companies, he would definitely sign Feng Bujue to Oriental DreamWorks.
With this Lin Feng's sudden strict requirements for Feng, and when the crew finished filming Yanjing's scene and arrived at a barracks exterior prepared by the army, the little girl's acting skills were directly upgraded to a notch, and she made obvious progress, and she was no longer as young as when she first joined the crew.
Feng Bujue's body changed immediately, and the actors who played against her immediately felt it, Lin Feng, as the person who played against the little girl the most, felt the change in Feng Bujue's body for the first time.
She progressed.
At the same time, Feng Bujue also felt the change in himself, the number of times he shouted to stop became less, and the number of times he passed at one time increased.
When today's scene passed again, Lin Feng smiled and said to Feng unconsciously like a big brother: "Not bad, Xiaoying!"
This is the first time since the start of filming that Lin Feng praised Feng in public, and the little girl was a little unprepared for this sudden compliment, especially the kind of hard work that made countless blood and sweat and finally get the affirmation of the idol, which made the little girl feel a sense of grievance.
- Woo woo
Unexpectedly, the little girl was in a state of excitement because of Lin Feng's compliment, and she whimpered and cried under the surprise.
"Eh!" Lin Feng looked at the crying pear blossom with rain without realizing it, he just said a word of praise, is it necessary!
People who don't know think that he bullied this cute and beautiful little girl!
Fortunately, after a while, he finally returned to normal, and Feng Buju, who controlled his emotions, immediately bowed to Lin Feng and said sincerely: "Thank you Lin Da!"
Immediately after that, the little girl ran to Bian Mingcheng and said, "Director Bian, thank you!"
"Thank you, thank you!" said the little girl to every actor and crew member who had helped her.
Suddenly, everyone at the scene let out a good-natured laugh.
Lin Feng saw everyone's expressions, as well as Feng Bujue's excitement, knowing that the atmosphere at this time had been driven, it was not suitable to continue filming today, and recently, everyone was filming too hard in the barracks!
Thinking of this, he immediately took the microphone from Bian Mingcheng's hand, stood on a chair beside him, and shouted loudly to everyone: "Finish work, half an hour, let's go to dinner!"
Suddenly, countless people immediately let out a wolf-like scream.
"Long live Director Lin!"
"Long live Lin Da!"
.。
After more than a month of filming, after being nervous, Lin Feng took all the staff and actors of the crew of "I Am Special Forces" to the hotel for dinner and relaxation, and a lot of things happened in the outside entertainment industry.
The screening of "My Sassy Girlfriend" abroad also fell to the table, which caused a trend in China at that time, and was also copied abroad.
400 million box office!
This is the final statistics of the foreign box office, plus the domestic box office, it is only one step away from the box office of 1 billion.
When the media reported this data, it immediately attracted the exclamation and shock of all the people in the film industry!
How much was the box office in Huaxia last year?
Less than 6 billion!
In other words, Lin Feng's "My Sassy Girlfriend" together accounted for almost one-sixth of last year's Chinese box office, and if you count the domestic box office of this movie alone, it also accounted for almost one-twelfth of last year's Chinese box office!
This is simply an astronomical number and ratio for everyone in the film industry.
At this level, if Lin Feng makes three or four movies a year, will it not occupy half of the box office of Chinese films?
Some well-meaning media and film personalities, through various channels, express their views on this kind of thing.
However, this statement was quickly overturned by all people in the entertainment industry.
Yes, the total box office of Huaxia last year was only about 6 billion, but this year's box office of Huaxia is definitely more than 6 billion, after statistics from interested people, the total box office of Huaxia movies in the first half of the year alone has exceeded more than 5 billion, which is infinitely close to last year's total.
In other words, if nothing else, the total box office data of Chinese domestic films this year will reach more than 12 billion.
The third golden age of Chinese cinema is coming.
In fact, last year, some people in the film industry realized that the outbreak of the Chinese box office was coming, but they didn't expect that this outbreak would be initiated by a rookie director who was setting foot in the film industry for the first time.
Last year, Li Canghai spent three years and hundreds of millions of dollars to make a "Great Generation" with a box office of 800 million in China, and some people realized that the golden age of Chinese films is not far away.
The 90s was an unbearable decade for Chinese filmmakers!
Not only is the number of domestic films produced each year gradually decreasing, but the data of the Chinese box office has also declined sharply, and even for a period of time it was not as good as in the 80s, especially in the face of Hollywood blockbusters in the United States, it was defeated and lost countless places.
So far, a series of box office records set by Hollywood blockbusters in China have still not been broken.
This is simply a shame and a scar for all Chinese filmmakers.
A record of 1.4 billion total box office!
Breaking the record of 500 million in a single week!
A record of over 100 million at the box office in a single day!
At present, the box office records in the history of Chinese films are all maintained by Hollywood blockbusters in the United States, and these records are like sharp swords, deeply stabbing the dignity of all Chinese filmmakers.
However, there is nothing they can do.
This is like a moat, the world is far away, which makes all Chinese filmmakers feel desperate!
Even last year's Li Canghai's finale "A Generation of Great Men" did not break any of these records, you must know that last year's film brought together several kings, actors, queens and many superstars in the Chinese film circle, and did not break Hollywood's monopoly on Chinese box office records.
But it also makes all filmmakers see a little hope, and the gap is narrowing.
And now Lin Feng's unexpected success makes people feel that this hope has become a reality, especially the box office data of Chinese films in the first half of the year exceeded 5 billion, which is an obvious empirical evidence, it seems that the time has come for the rise of Chinese films.
The market for Chinese films is about to be in a blowout.
It's just that the good news of the Huaxia film market has made some people regret it so much that their bowels are green, that is, the original shareholders of the Donghai Cinema Line who sold their shares to Lin Feng.
Less than 1 billion! Just less than 1 billion, they sold 51% of the shares of Donghai Cinema Line to Lin Feng.
And now, with the success of "My Sassy Girlfriend", the popularity of the Huaxia film market has been driven, making the market value of various cinema companies in Huaxia is rising.
Some people who know the inside story and know that Lin Feng is the boss behind the Donghai Cinema Line are sighing at Lin Feng's good luck, it has only been a few months, and an acquisition has increased by as much as two or three billion, and this transaction is really worth it.
However, the reason why Lin Feng took such a big advantage and got 51% of the shares of Donghai Cinemas so easily is because the market for Chinese films is too desperate, and the cinema chain can't see the possibility of making a profit at all, or it is very difficult to get enough benefits.
Speaking of these, I have to say that in the 90s, the lost 10 years, the 10 years that were completely pressed by the Oscars, the decade in which the Oscars brought countless humiliations to Chinese films, and the decade in which the blockbusters of the United States attacked the city and seized the land in the Chinese film market.
Some of these reasons are too interesting, although now these reasons that have made Chinese movies lose 10 years are now temporarily disappearing without a trace for some reasons.
But no one knows when these reasons will pop up again.
Now everyone sees that the Chinese film market is booming, and it has begun to break out, which is good.
Several film companies have revised their shooting plans for this year, and several low-budget romance movies have been launched and added to the shooting plans.
It's just that Lin Feng doesn't know all this now.
Phoenix TV.
Wu Yuanzhi looked at the data reported by his subordinates in the computer, processed various documents, and with Lin Feng's creativity of various types of programs, Phoenix TV has completely become regular.
Some time ago, Phoenix TV made a name for itself in the entertainment industry because of the finals of "The Voice of China" and the TV series "Jade Guanyin".
Whether it was the finals of "The Voice of China" or the finale of "Jade Guanyin", the ratings of the day exceeded 20%, killing the same type of program at the same time, which made all people in the industry stunned.
This Phoenix TV has only been established for less than a year!
Compared with his previous life, Lin Feng advanced nearly 10 years in advance, and came up with the idea of "The Voice of China", the investment and publicity of astronomical funds, well-made on-site facilities, and an alternative selection model, this show has become the most popular variety show in China in a short period of time.
It can be said that none of the variety entertainment programs or talent shows of the same type on all TV stations in China is the opponent of "The Voice of China", and this variety show of Phoenix TV has defeated domestic opponents.
If it weren't for the natural disadvantage of Phoenix TV being limited by its short history, the gap between victory and defeat would be even greater.
In addition, the TV series "Jade Guanyin" broke 20% of the ratings, and others were not too surprised.
The combination of Lin Feng and Wang Qidong is simply invincible in the Chinese film and television industry.
But now with the end of "The Voice of China" and "Jade Guanyin", Wu Yuanzhi has been thinking about what programs to use to make up for the ratings gap left by these two programs.
There is no other way to make a TV series, DreamWorks can't get a good TV series for the time being, and the TV series that Lin Feng is filming has already said hello to Wu Yuanzhi, and it can only be broadcast on national TV when the time comes.
And after the end of "The Voice of China", Wu Yuanzhi couldn't find a suitable program to make up for the ratings gap left by this program.
Fortunately, there are so many film and television production companies in Huaxia, even if there is no Oriental DreamWorks, Phoenix TV can also spend a lot of money to buy some high-quality TV series, and now the TV series broadcast by Phoenix TV Golden Theater is Wu Yuanzhi who made people spend a lot of money to buy.
It's just that the ratings have been hovering around 5%, which makes Wu Yuanzhi go through the baptism of 10% of the ratings of each of Lin Feng's TV series, which is already a good result for this before, a little numb, and there is nothing to be happy about.
TV series can make up for it by buying other TV series, even if the ratings are not as good as those made by DreamWorks, but at least it can be justified.
But the blank left by "The Voice of China" is not so easy to replace.
Wu Yuanzhi has had Lin Feng's genius-like creative experience, and he can no longer look down on ordinary ideas, and at present, the station has spent a lot of energy and submitted variety show ideas several times, all of which were rejected by Wu Yuanzhi.
It seems that he can only turn around or let Lin Feng think about one, Wu Yuanzhi can only think so secretly in his heart.
Just as Wu Yuanzhi was thinking in the office, a knock came in, and then a staff member walked in and reported to her: "Mr. Wu, there is a person outside who says that Oriental DreamWorks is looking for you!"
"Oh, then invite him in. Wu Yuanzhi immediately stood up and ordered.
Followed by a raunchy middle-aged man walked in, Wu Yuanzhi saw this familiar man, thought about it slightly, knew who it was, and couldn't help but smile and said: "I thought it was who? It turned out to be you!
Wu Yuanzhi's image of Lao Chai was when she went to Beijing, and she was dragged to a ward to see a girl named Nannan, and she met Lao Chai!
She knew that Lao Chai was now filming a TV series according to Lin Feng's instructions, thinking of this, Wu Yuanzhi immediately showed a happy smile on his face, and asked a little excitedly: "Lao Chai, is the TV series you filmed already good?"
"Well, I've already brought the samples!" replied Lao Chai with a slight smile, the past few months have been a complete freshman for him.
