Chapter Ninety-Three: Preliminary Preparations

The time has entered mid-September, and the film market is still very hot. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Rise of the Planet of the Apes 2: Dawn of War" took the lead, winning the mainland box office championship for two consecutive weeks, with a cumulative box office of 420 million.

"Embroidered Spring Knife" has a steady decline, with a cumulative box office of more than 460 million, and both Guangguang and Shen Lin have to make money.

By the way, this week there is a movie starring Xie Qiwang and Gao Yuanyuan on the market, called "One Life"

Coincidentally, at the beginning of September, Zhuo Wei exposed a 'Fengfei Century Compound', Nima, I really don't know if it was to cooperate with the promotion of the movie.

Then, relying on the huge topicality, "One Life" actually grabbed the box office championship for three consecutive days, and the cumulative box office reached 170 million after two weeks of release!

Damn, it's not fair!

But I still bless this pair of old lovers who have been going around for more than ten years.

Bao Ye was very unhappy, and his big-screen debut "Untouchable" was given a cold reception, and he only got 40.2 million in three days.

The luxurious cast led by Sun Honglei and Gui Lunmei can ensure that the film has an average of 29,000 daily appearances, but it cannot guarantee the attendance, and the average audience of the film is only 14 people.

As a 50-year-old director, Zhao Baogang tried his best to tell a love story with a sense of age, but I only saw two neuropathies. Let's not talk about the story, it's all slots, and opening a barrage field should work very well. The editing is terrible, the abuse of sports footage, goofs abound, I want to play erotic edge balls, the helpless man is obscene and dirty, and the woman always has a generous and righteous expression, and I don't see where the desire is entangled. ”

"It's terrible, the script is poor, the story is not plausible, and the lines are weird. The director is poor, the rhythm is chaotic, and there are no requirements for performance. The last two scenes are even more thunderous... Director Zhao should go back to shoot an urban youth TV series. ”

Not only that, many people shouted at Zhao Baogang, saying that there was a difference of twenty Feng Xiaogang between him and Shen Lin!

One sentence offended two big directors!

However, Shen Lin didn't have time to deal with these, he only cared about "Embroidered Spring Knife".

According to the analysis of the normal box office trend, as of the next grade, "Embroidered Spring Knife" should be able to harvest more than 500 million box office.

For a light movie with a publicity of nearly 100 million, the box office of "Embroidered Spring Knife" can only be regarded as decent, but the word-of-mouth effect is obvious, and many martial arts lovers have left messages under director Lu Yang's Weibo to hurry up and shoot the second part.

Lu Yang was also very powerful, and immediately announced the establishment of the "Embroidered Spring Knife 2 Shura Battlefield" project, Shen Lin did not participate in the investment this time, but gave it to the light.

Always monopolized the bones, and is the worst collaborator!

……

Spring City, Yunnan Land.

Behind "Operation Mekong", the main creator of "Operation Mekong", director Shen Lin, cinematographer Deng Wendi, three assistant directors, as well as blasting expert Chen Ke, action director Dong Wei and our special art consultant Comrade Liu Yuejin.

Except for Dong Wei, the others are all old teammates who have cooperated with Shen Lin several times before.

"Interstellar" uses a Hollywood team, which can't be helped, Disney-led films, Shen Lin has no right to use a domestic team; to "Super Body", Shen Lin deliberately arranged team members to station, although there is also a Hollywood team, but most of the people responsible for the on-site shooting are still Shen Lin's original team - this is also the most important reason why "Super Body" can be completed quickly.

In this "Mekong Operation", Shen Lin had already greeted them when he received this project, and these people quickly ended the work at hand and joined the group as quickly as possible.

"Li Dong," Shen Lin's gaze turned to the person in charge of the props team, "This is a documentary movie, we must abandon those exaggerated weapons, such as firearms to be restored one-to-one, you can ask Brother Liu for more advice in this regard." ”

"Okay!" Li Dong nodded, "Actually, we have been researching domestic weapons in the past few days, and Director Liu has also given us a lot of advice..."

"There is no need, Director Shen, in fact, when we carried out regular arrests, we did not use domestic weapons. ”

Liu Yuejin waved his hand very abruptly: "The weapons and equipment rationed by our special operations team are carried out in accordance with international standards, except for the submachine gun that uses a domestic police 9mm submachine gun (CS/LS5 submachine gun), the others are Czech or American weapons. ”

“…”

It's embarrassing, but fortunately I found an expert, otherwise I would have been picked on all kinds of props alone!

"Wendi, we don't have to go to Malaysia, the Thai government said that it will provide us with filming assistance, and we can shoot directly in Chiang Mai Province! Of course, we can build the necessary scenes in China. ”

I don't know why the Thai government actually agreed to provide a force of about 800 people to assist in the filming.

It was a bit unexpected by Shen Lin and the public security.

However, a movie actually alarmed the Thai government, and it seems that "Operation Mekong" has attracted a lot of attention!

As for the domestic scenery, it is very understandable, no matter how people give you face, you can't stage an explosion scene on other people's territory, and, according to Shen Lin's idea, that explosion scene is very important, and it must be filmed in real time.

"Director Liu, I need the Ministry of Public Security to arrange a few military helicopters, rest assured, we will rent them at the standard price!"

For this film, the Ministry of Public Security fully assisted.

Therefore, the right to use these necessary equipment, Liu Yuejin nodded.

"Let's express our opinions and discuss what needs to be solved!"

Shen Lin almost finished his thoughts, and then motioned for the rest of the team to speak and express their opinions.

Several of you have already read the script, and they already have an intuitive understanding of what kind of movie Shen Lin wants to shoot.

This kind of preparatory meeting originally existed to solve the problem, and the crew needed to reach a basic consensus as soon as possible and work in one direction.

"Director Shen, are we too big a scale? Look at this, Fang Xinwu used lynching, and Gao Gang actually killed a child! Wouldn't this be too cruel?"

Wendi Deng has always wanted to discuss this matter with Shen Lin.

As a photographer in his forties, Wendi Deng was a staff member of China Film Studio before, and he had made similar main theme movies before.

He didn't feel the need to show that.

The movie can show the bravery of the anti-narcotics police in other aspects, wouldn't it be too cruel to talk about a child?

"The main theme! It is not the main theme of the bloody scenes of being castrated, but the main theme of completely betting on the dignity of the country! If we are not cruel to the enemy, what is the meaning of the peace and stability that our heroes' deaths are exchanged for? If we do not shoot children, the self-explosion attacks of children are disrespectful to the lives of our soldiers. The more merciful you are to your enemies, the more cruel you are to yourself!"

Shen Lin's words were sonorous, "Seriously, the script you see is already the script after I compromised dozens of steps, and the script I originally prepared was much more bloody than this!"

"Well said!"

Liu Yuejin applauded, "We just want to make those drug dealers afraid! Which of those anti-narcotics policemen did not hand over their lives to the state, and fought against those drug dealers day and night, and some of them could not even engrave their names on their tombstones after their deaths, for fear that the drug dealers would retaliate against their families." I just want to tell them, if you dare to make trouble, I will dare to torture you in 100,000 ways. ”

Several people present were all inspired by Liu Yuejin's words!

Shen Lin was also very excited on the surface, but he was a little desolate in his heart.

"That's right, Shen Lin. ”

Yu Dongda, who had not spoken, asked, "Have you thought about the specific release date of the film?"

"What do you recommend?"

Shen Lin didn't answer, but asked instead.

"Otherwise, let's file next year's National Day..."
