Chapter 626: Filming Starts - Dead Heart (2-in-1)
The play that Li Sheng prepared for Ning Hao really gave Ning Hao a lot of confidence. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
When the movie was finished here, Li Shenghe separated with Ning Hao and Jiang Wen, and they thanked Cui Xinqin and said goodbye before leaving.
Li Sheng drove Ning Hao and came to Feihong Pictures with the film.
The film is returned to the company for sealing, and when the time comes, it will be signed up for the exhibition.
Li Sheng took Ning Hao to Yu Dong, and Li Sheng said to Yu Dong.
"Manager Yu, take out the box office record of killing and let me take a look. ”
Yu Dong asked, he had reported to Li Sheng about the box office of killing, so there was no reason to ask now.
Although he had doubts, he still pulled one out of the folder on the table, then opened it and flipped through a few pages, and handed it over.
Li Sheng took it and looked at it, and then threw it to Ning Hao.
Ning Hao took it questioningly, and when he looked at it, he was stunned.
It's been a week since the film was released, and today is the eighth day.
None of the previous seven days at the box office was less than one million.
On the first day, it reached 1.32 million, and although it fell back in the next six days, it also remained between 1 million and 1.1 million.
"What's going on? Aren't they all scolding me!"
Yu Dong looked at Li Sheng and then at Ning Hao, completely unclear what the hell these two were doing.
It was Li Sheng who saw Yu Dong's question, and he explained to Yu Dong.
"This guy reads a lot of newspapers now, and he feels that everything he shoots is rubbish, and people are scolding him, and he is super unconfident. ”
"So I took the original film to Nortel for a viewing party. ”
It took a great deal to pull him back from the tip of the horns. ”
When Yu Dong heard that this was the case, he immediately shook his head with a smile.
Ning Hao was puzzled, "Why do you have this expression too!"
Yu Dong smiled and said nothing, but Li Sheng explained it to him.
"First of all, you have to make sure that you are not making a bad movie!"
Secondly, this drama now has all the conditions and elements of a popular movie. ”
"I wrote the script, it's enough, is Jiang Wen Huanglei enough?"
"In addition, there is so much controversy about your drama outside, and there is a topic of heat. ”
"If there is a topic, there will be controversy, and if there is controversy, there will be heat, and if there is heat, are you still afraid that no one will watch it?"
Yu Dong nodded and praised, "The boss is not the boss, this is simply amazing, that's the truth!"
Li Sheng didn't think so, what is this, in later generations, in order to brush up a little heat on the eve of release, even if it is self-black, you have to keep yourself in the top few topics and hot search words on the Internet.
Where would it be like Ning Hao now, let him be on the cusp of this storm, he actually felt cowardly.
After all, it was the box office data and the cheers of Nortel's classmates that gave Ning Hao a little confidence.
He finally nodded, "Well, I'm not trash, and my work isn't trash!"
Li Sheng ran, "That's right!"
"Keep your mentality, now that you're just getting started, that's it, how can you continue to go on when you really become a nationally renowned director!"
"There are many people who are popular, you have to remember this truth!"
"Being yourself is more important than anything else!"
"As for the rest, let them be!"
"Isn't there a famous saying that it's good to go other people's way, so that others have no way to go!"
Yu Dong and Ning Hao were stunned when they heard Li Sheng's words, and then they both smiled bitterly and gave a thumbs up.
"Incisive!"
Li Sheng waved his hand, "Okay, okay, don't be a sycophant!"
"It's okay, I'll go back first. ”
Li Sheng said, he took two steps and stopped to ask Yu Dong.
"How's the crew preparing?"
Yu Dong replied, "You can turn it on at any time!"
Li Sheng nodded, "Okay, contact the actors, let's get ready to start, I've been idle for so long, I can't wait." ”
Yu Dong nodded and said, "Okay!"
"Then I'll go back first. Li Sheng waved his hand, and then he really left.
……
When he returned home, Yu Feihong asked Li Shengdao, "How is it?"
Li Sheng asked, "What's wrong?"
Yu Feihong replied, "Of course it's Ning Hao, didn't you take him to solve his psychological problems?"
Li Sheng smiled, "Oh, you don't want to see who is out of the way!"
Yu Feihong glanced at Li Sheng, "Look at your virtue!"
Li Sheng laughed hesitantly, thinking that he was going to start filming, he was busy talking to Yu Feihong.
"Oh, by the way, sister, I guess the crew will start up in the next few days!"
Yu Feihong was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Okay, I can't wait!"
Li Sheng was immediately embarrassed, speechless, yes, Fei Ge is still thinking about this film and coming out to tease his father-in-law fiercely!
……
The next day, Yu Dong called and said that he had communicated with all the actors, and asked Li Sheng when he would start filming.
After thinking about it, Li Sheng decided to start tomorrow, tomorrow.
The filming location needs to have a villa, and Li Sheng can certainly do it here, but Li Sheng is unwilling.
Because according to the needs of the plot, many things in the house will be smashed at that time, and Li Sheng doesn't want his house to be smashed.
The filming took place in a villa in the Huairou Film and Television Base.
On the day of the shooting, everyone gathered here.
This is also the first time that this crew has appeared collectively today.
Wang Jinsong and Baobao are more familiar with each other, only Li Qinqin is the first time to cooperate, but looking at people at this age, they are also old drama bones, and Li Sheng definitely doesn't need to worry about it.
The most suitable thing is that Wang Jinsong and Li Qinqin actually know each other, which is easy to do.
This scene hasn't started filming yet, but it has already won more than half of the image.
Wang Jinsong is a shrunken old man without makeup at all, as for Li Qinqin's eyes, tsk, a proper woman!
Since everyone knows each other, then this is easy to do.
Li Sheng said hello to everyone first.
"Thank you all for coming to my play, we are all old acquaintances, I won't talk nonsense, and I am familiar with the script. ”
"This play does not have high requirements for acting skills, but there is one thing, that is, this play is a comedy, and I want to see something that you can't usually see in your performances!"
"Okay!"
Jiang Wu stretched out his hand and rubbed the beard on his chin, laughing happily, without speaking, the baby was also smirking.
Seeing this, Li Sheng was helpless, and spread his hands, "Ready to start!"
The producer of the crew is still Jia Wen, and now he is basically Li Sheng's queen producer.
Jia Wen has been with Li Sheng for so long, and he is familiar with everything about Li Sheng, his habits, his rhythm, and scenes have been arranged in advance.
Because the villa that we gathered today is the last villa for shooting, and it is not appropriate to change the scenery again, so I started shooting directly from here.
That means the story can't be filmed from the beginning.
Li Sheng wanted to participate in the show, but he couldn't control the camera, so he made a special call to get Ning Hao over.
Lest Ning Hao stay at home and read the newspaper news or something and think crankily again, Li Sheng didn't want to go to Ning Hao to be a spiritual mentor every day.
Ning Hao knew that Li Sheng was going to start filming a new drama, but at that time, he only cared about grieving his own movie, and he had no time to understand other things, and it was the first time he saw Li Sheng's script.
When he came and finished reading Li Sheng's script, he was immediately dumbfounded.
It wasn't until Li had put on makeup that Ning Hao was in a daze.
"Well, hey, whatever!
Li Sheng woke Ning Hao up, and Ning Hao came back to his senses and shook his head.
"No, no!"
"I'm thinking about your script!"
Li Sheng was puzzled, "What's wrong with my script?"
Ning Hao hesitated for a long time and didn't hold back a word.
Li Sheng pursed his lips and spit out two words angrily.
"Wonderful?"
Ning Hao nodded and shook his head, "Wonderful is wonderful, but this story is ...... Tsk, I really don't dare to compliment!"
Li Sheng rolled his eyes, blame me!
"I'm going to make another film, but the capital investment is too big, and I want Feihong Pictures to be my own sole proprietorship, but Yu Dong is against it, so I can only wait. ”
"You can completely treat this drama as if it is used to make money and make quick money!"
Ning Hao was stunned, "Then aren't you overdrawing your fame?"
Li Sheng spread his hands, "Why haven't you understood yet?"
"What?" Ning Hao was stunned, why did it become my fault.
Li Sheng sighed and said, "What was your first reaction after reading this script?"
Ning Hao thought about it and replied honestly, "I want to laugh!"
"Vulgar, right?" asked Li Sheng again.
Ning Hao nodded, "Hmm!"
Li Sheng snapped his fingers, "That's enough, this is a real pure commercial Chinese movie, make money, you can watch it after watching it, and you will have it." ”
"What kind of reflection, humanity, care, all of them!"
In fact, let's get the drama of my father-in-law, in fact, it is not too thorough business, and Li Sheng has seen too many so-called pure commercial movies in later generations.
For example, Wang Fatzi later ate the old book of Macau, and the Journey to the West No. 3 X White Bone Essence produced by China Star, etc., etc., etc., that is really empty.
In addition to the gorgeous special effects piled up by special effects technology, there is only a pair of big names from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan left, and the rest, sorry, we have nothing else.
Ning Hao was pondering, Li Sheng didn't give him time to think, and reached out and patted him on the shoulder.
"Okay, don't think about it, be a good assistant director for me, and I will have the opportunity to study it in the future!"
Ning Hao took a deep breath, "Hmm!"
……
Ning Hao, Wang Jinsong, Jiang Wu, Baobao, these are all people who have worked with Li Sheng many times, and they are very familiar with Li Sheng's routines and rhythms.
On the first day, as usual, run-in, run-in the whole crew.
Maybe it's because of the familiarity, but it's going well.
The only problem lies with Li Sheng and Yu Feihong.
In the evening, when the sky darkened a little, the curtains were drawn.
The scene to be filmed is the bed scene between Li Sheng and Yu Feihong, and then Wang Jinsong is under the bed, Li Sheng knows, but Yu Feihong doesn't know about filming.
Okay!
Yu Feihong knew that Wang Jinsong was under the bed, and there was a camera hanging next to him, so the two of them were happy!
Yu Feihong laughed first, and then Li Sheng, you come and go, this scene can't continue.
In fact, it was not only the two of them, Jiang Wu Baobao Ning Hao and they couldn't help but laugh when they watched from the side.
Smiling and laughing, Ning Hao suddenly stopped laughing, he suddenly had some enlightenment.
He seemed to suddenly understand what Li Sheng had just said to himself.
What is the purpose and goal of a movie's existence?
Art? No, no, no!
Entertaining the public? It seems to be, and it doesn't seem to be!
When he first saw Li Sheng's script, he really wanted to laugh, but now it seems that this is indeed the case, yes, he wants to laugh, he wants to laugh.
He suddenly remembered what Li Sheng said about the so-called commercialization, catering to the audience, and also remembered what he said when he first met Li Sheng.
I made a movie, you watched, I laughed, you laughed, and I succeeded.
……
Sometimes, the realm is like a barrier that cannot be seen or touched, and if you say that there is no him, it will be gone.
Everyone has been laughing at this scene today, and the filming can't continue to be filmed, so they can only end the scene together.
When they went back to their respective homes, Li Sheng and Yu Feihong had a meal on the way back and were ready to rest.
……
Los Angeles, which has not had a sunny day for a long time, finally ushered in the first sunny day of this month today.
Zhou Gongzi got out of school as usual, walked on the street, and slowly walked back to his home.
Open the door, turn on the lights, turn on the computer.
Now she has completely calmed down, and she has begun to slowly adapt to the current life, just like a lake, calm and unwavering.
She turned on her computer and opened her email to see that there was a new email inside.
She opened it curiously, her face changed slightly, and she endured it and continued to read it.
This was sent to her by Song Ke, and Song Ke told Zhou Gongzi that Li Sheng was about to get engaged, so that she could study with peace of mind and stop thinking nonsense.
There are also two songs attached to it.
Zhou Gongzi downloaded them, and then opened them curiously.
We cried
We laughed
We look up at the sky
There are still a few stars lit up
We sang
The song of time
to know how to hug each other
What the hell is it for
Because I just met you
……
Li Sheng's voice rang out, and Zhou Gongzi just sat there dumbfounded, listening, listening.
Listening to this, she suddenly smiled, and smiled very happily, very happily......
Slowly she looked up at the ceiling, she felt a heat on her face, and two lines of tears slowly flowed from the corners of her eyes, ran down her cheeks, and fell down her shoulders.
waited until the song was finished, for a long time, for a long time, before Zhou Gongzi came back to his senses and reached out to wipe the corners of his eyes.
She reached out and pulled open the drawer, then took out the notebook, opened it, and picked up the pen.
"Today is the only sunny day in half a month, and I was in a good mood. ”
"But I'm not happy now, I want you to be by my side, and I want you to coax me, but I know it's impossible. ”
"I turned on my computer and I got an email that I knew you were getting engaged, I knew you were going to get married, but the bride wasn't me. ”
"You know what? I'm so tired!"
"Really, I really want to tell you that I'm really going to die......"
"There will be no time in the future, maybe you have already given me the answer!"
……
"Click, click......"
The notebook was slowly wet with tears, and a few spots stained the ink with some discoloration, like a memory......
