The launching ceremony of Lu Chen's first film work "A Chinese Ghost Story" was held at Fa'en Temple in Lion Rock Film and Television City.

The Faen Temple in Lion Rock is an old site, which was first built in the late Qing Dynasty, and was eventually abandoned after two firestorms, and the ruins became a safe haven for wild foxes.

In the early 90s, when the construction of the Lion Rock Film and Television City began, the old site of Faen Temple was included, and the scene designers did not restore and rebuild it, but repaired it on the basis of the ruins, which became an excellent scene for shooting zombie ghost movies and horror movies.

In the 90s, many of the Xiangjiang zombie and ghost films that were once very popular were filmed here.

But now, due to changes in the market, the theme that used to be a big seller has long been lost, and the utilization rate of the old site of Fa'en Temple has greatly declined, so the studio can easily rent it at a very cheap cost.

The long table in front of the temple is lined up, this is a table dedicated to the gods, which is paved with red velvet cloth, and the statue of Emperor Guan is placed in the middle, and the incense burner and the roast suckling pig, fresh melons and fruits are offered on the left and right.

A video camera is placed on the right side of the desk, also covered with a red cloth.

A little further in the open space, a hanging firecracker was lit, and then in the crackling sound, the crew members went to worship God in turn, praying for a smooth shooting and a big sale of the new film.

The ceremony of worshipping God originated from Xiangjiang at the earliest, Xiangjiang people believe in feng shui superstition, everything likes to ask for good luck, the wind of worshipping God and praying to Buddha is very popular, and the movie crew is no exception, there are many taboos.

For example, the direction of worshipping God can not be wrong, different times, different places to start, the direction of everyone worshipping God is not the same, roughly there is a focus on all directions, if the south is placed in the southwest, it is also a millimeter, a thousand miles of difference, and some even have to be accurate to the latitude and longitude.

It sounds incredible, but many Xiangjiang crews have to ask "masters" to calculate before starting the film, and they are not sloppy at all, otherwise they will encounter twists and turns during the filming, and they will inevitably wonder if they have touched something.

Lu Chen's studio has just been established, and the partner Jiayang Pictures is not a top large company in the industry, so the scene of the opening ceremony is not very large, but it is also very grand.

Zhou Yi, the big boss behind Jiayang Pictures, came to the scene in person, of course, he accompanied his cousin, that is, Nie Mingzhu, the heroine of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

Mrs. Kim also came, as well as her two goddaughters, Ji Xiaodie and Li Xinyan.

The two girls each have a small role in this movie.

There is also Chen Wenqiang's daughter Chen Siyi.

Chen Siyi just turned 20 years old this year, she didn't go to college after graduating from high school, but through her father's relationship, she entered an acting training institution, received professional artist training, and planned to develop in the entertainment industry.

At the beginning, Chen Wenqiang was successfully poached by Wan Xiaoquan to Lu Chen's Xiangjiang Studio, which had not yet been officially registered, in addition to the relatively high salary, the most important thing was that Wan Xiaoquan promised to give his daughter an important role.

Chen Siyi played Xiaoqing in "A Chinese Ghost Story", which belongs to a female supporting role with a bit of weight.

In fact, in the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story", there are four important characters, Ning Caichen, Nie Xiaoqian, Yan Chixia and the villain BOSS Grandma Tree Spirit, basically all the brilliance is concentrated on them, especially the first three.

As the first supporting actress, Xiaoqing does not have many scenes in the play, but whether it is Chen Wenqiang or Chen Siyi herself, she is already extremely satisfied.

Although except for Lu Chen, the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" does not have any big-name actors, Ma Rongzhen has long been outdated and reduced to the point of being a group actor, and most of the others are newcomers.

Lu Chen himself has just made a name for himself in the film and television industry in Xiangjiang, and it is not the work itself that depends on it.

However, the investment in "A Chinese Ghost Story" is as high as 30 million, although it is not a top big production, but because there are no big names, there is no high salary, and this large amount of money is basically invested in filming and post-production, and I am sorry for people if I don't produce high-quality products.

For the first time filming, she was able to receive an important supporting actress for such a movie, Chen Siyi was extremely lucky compared to those of her peers, and she stood at a very high starting point from the beginning.

As long as "A Chinese Ghost Story" is not a mess after its release, she has a valuable qualification.

Seniority represents coffee position.

After the incense worship was completed, Lu Chen, Zhou Yi, Wan Xiaoquan and Nie Mingzhu worked together to uncover the "red hijab" on the camera, and the crew gathered around applauded, and media reporters were taking pictures.

It is said that this procedure first came from the fear of "slicing".

The so-called "scribing" refers to the early film era, the film in the camera was accidentally scratched by the parts inside during shooting, and once the "scribing" occurred, it would cause immeasurable losses to the crew, but the machine scribing was unpredictable and difficult to prevent, so the only thing that could be done was to cover the camera with a red cloth to "suppress evil".

Nowadays, the camera has long been digitized, and there is no possibility of "scribing", but the more sophisticated the thing, the greater the problem, so this custom is still retained.

Removing the red cloth, the start-up ceremony of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is basically over.

Finally, the crew representatives were interviewed by the media.

Most of the media reporters were invited by Jiayang Pictures, and there were more than a dozen large and small ones, which were both for support and publicity, and each reporter was stuffed with red envelopes.

If a film and television entertainment company wants to gain a foothold in Xiangjiang, the last thing it can offend is the people in the media, otherwise people will scold them on TV and newspapers all day long, or make up some false rumors, then don't want to make money.

Of course, it is impossible to please all the media, Jiayang Pictures is an old film and television production company, and the boss Zhou Yi is a businessman in Xiangjiang, and there is no shortage of connections in related media.

But there were also some media uninvited, and these reporters were obviously very interested in Lu Chen, so they immediately surrounded him after the opening ceremony and asked him questions.

"Mr. Lu Chen, are you going to use this movie to change the film landscape in Xiangjiang?"

"Why do you have such confidence and confidence?"

"If this movie hits the streets, what are you going to do?

"Mr. Lu Chen, as far as I know, there is no big name in the actors in this movie, may I ask..."

Those who come are not good and those who are good do not come, and these reporters asked questions like cannons with an aggressive taste, which made Chen Wenqiang and Wan Xiaoquan, who were standing on the side, blacken their faces on the spot.

Zhou Yi's city was very deep, and there was a hint of displeasure in his eyes.
