Chapter 062: It's a Challenge!

On the evening of the sixth day of the first lunar month, Huang Bo drove the van he borrowed to Beifengxiang Hutong near Zhengyi Road in Kyoto City.

This Liqun roast duck restaurant, which opened in a courtyard house, was still doing business at this time.

Huang Bo inquired with the waiter and came to the innermost box. When I opened the door, I found that the box was already full. Li Bing, Guan Hu, Gao Hu, Ning Hao, Chen Yuan, and even Su Muying were there. In addition to this, there are two people who have never met before.

Everyone introduced each other, and Huang Bo knew about it. The middle-aged man with a beard is called Liu Hao, who has starred in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "The Happy Life of Poor Zhang Damin", and is an actor, but his reputation is not very good. As for the short and ugly boy next to him, who is only 16 or 7 years old, his name is Wang Baoqiang. Said to come out of the Shaolin Temple.

Huang Bo wondered in his heart, where did Gao Hu and the others find these two best? It's all different. Especially this Wang Baoqiang, who speaks in a rustic manner, and wants to make a movie when he opens and closes his mouth, he is simply the best of the best.

The people have arrived, Chen Yuan smiled faintly and said: "A few years ago, Brother Guan said that he was not sure to shoot this "Crazy Stone", so I considered filming a simple practice first. Makei! ”

Su Muying stood up obediently and handed over the new scripts in the document bag to everyone one by one.

Guan Hu took a look, and the two black characters in Song style on the cover were very conspicuous - nightclub! The following is the signature: screenwriter Chen Yuan.

"This is the first work that our Qingyun Entertainment Culture Co., Ltd. started shooting! I didn't ask for anything but one thing! Before the Lantern Festival, this movie must be filmed! Chen Yuan said categorically.

"This ......" Guan Hu and Ning Hao frowned at the same time.

Li Bing opened his mouth and was extremely surprised. There is a thick stack of scripts in her hand! How is it possible to shoot in eight days?

Gao Hu smiled awkwardly, wanting to say something, but he was really embarrassed to speak.

Liu Haoxiao's appearance suddenly changed, how did he feel that this crew was unreliable?

Wang Baoqiang is so stupid, he has no other ideas, he just thinks that he can finally make a movie! He will definitely become a film and television superstar like Li Lianjie who filmed "Shaolin Temple"!

Huang Bo looked at everyone's expressions and pondered the taste. He said, "Isn't this too rushed?" Although I haven't made a movie before, I know that no movie seems to be able to be made in such a short time, right? ”

Everyone nodded unconsciously, thinking the same as Huang Bo. Only Wang Baoqiang, who has been dreaming of stardom, and Su Muying, who is unswervingly on Chen Yuan's side, have nothing to say.

Chen Yuan smiled faintly and said, "This is a work of practice. There are nothing more than four goals to achieve, one of which is to let future stars such as Brother Huang and Bao Qiang, who have never acted in a movie, try to enter the play, and their hearts are in the play! Second, let the two directors Brother Guan and Brother Ning increase their experience. With this drama as a foreshadowing, the finished film of "Crazy Stone" may be able to improve one or two levels! Third, for the other members of the crew, whether it is the makeup team or the field care team, it is also an opportunity to exercise! ”

Speaking of this, Chen Yuan was silent.

Wang Baoqiang smiled and said, "Boss, why don't you say it?" Isn't there another four? ”

"Fourth, of course, to make money!" Chen Yuan chuckled and did not hide it, "Although "Nightclub" only took 8 days from preparation to filming, I still hope that this movie can be released!" ”

Li Bing snorted and laughed. She said, "Boss, you see that Director Ning and Director Ning are both bitter faces!" You're asking too much, aren't you? Not only is the filming time short, but it also has to be able to shoot well and be released, which is embarrassing! ”

Is it embarrassing? In the memory of the future, the reality show movies "Run, Brother" and "Where Are You Going, Dad" only took five or six days to complete the preliminary filming work, of course, it is a variety show movie, and there is not much comparison with the serious movie. But there are movies that have a shooting time that rivals reality TV.

"In '65, somebody made a movie with a single shot, called 'Empire State Building. It was shot in just eight hours! Chen Yuan said with a smile.

Ning Hao smiled bitterly: "I know that when this movie premiered, there were few audiences who insisted on not leaving within half an hour......"

Chen Yuan did not refute either, and continued: """Gunfire" directed by Du Qifeng, which was just released a year ago, is said to have taken only 19 days! ”

Guan Hu nodded and said, "I've heard about this!" Du Qifeng finally found a Taiwanese boss to invest 2.5 million Hong Kong dollars, so he could only seize the time to shoot. He can make a finished film in such a short time, and I also admire his talent! ”

Liu Zhenwei directed "East Becomes West", and it only took more than ten days to complete the preliminary filming work. Everyone should have heard of this work. Chen Yuan said.

"I've heard it," Liu said, revealing his trademark smile, "I've heard from others, too." At that time, Wang Jiawei was slowly grinding the "East Evil and West Poison", and the film had not been completed for a long time, and the producers were in a hurry! In order to give the producer an explanation, Liu Zhenwei, who cooperated with Wang Jiawei, used the original team to direct "East City and West West". The short filming time of "East Becomes West" is scary, but the box office is even more rebellious than "East Evil and West Poison"! ”

Chen Yuan nodded and continued: "They can shoot the film in the shortest time, why can't we?" ”

Chen Yuan's question knocked everyone down! Guan Hu and Ning Hao can list a hundred reasons why they can't, but they can't say this anyway. They are also directors, and naturally they also have the arrogance of directors!

Wang Baoqiang said excitedly: "The boss is right, why can't we?" Boss, don't worry, I will do whatever you arrange for me to do, and I will never hold the crew back! ”

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, he felt that Wang Baoqiang was born to act in comedy. The other party's action or sentence can be hilarious. What a comedic genius!

His gaze swept over everyone one by one, and said calmly: "To tell the truth, I think everyone here, from Sister Bingbing, Brother Huang, Brother Gao, Brother Guan, Brother Ning, to Wang Baoqiang and Liu Hao over there, all have their own hidden talents!" It's just that the talent hasn't been discovered yet. The next two plays, a practice work "Nightclub" and a highlight "Crazy Stone", are enough for everyone to dig out their respective talents and release them! ”

After a pause, he said again: "Brother Guan, Brother Ning, this is a challenge!" If you can really complete the filming work smoothly within these eight days, then your name is enough to shock the entire film and television industry! ”

"I want to try!" Ning Hao was enthusiastically boiled by Chen Yuan's words, he liked any difficult challenge!

Guan Hu was much calmer, he roughly flipped through the script, and found that the filming location was only a 24-hour supermarket, and the character settings and story routes in the script were not as complicated as "Crazy Stone", so he suddenly had a trace of confidence. He glanced at Ning Hao, and the two looked at each other. Then I saw Guan Hu nodding and responding, "I want to try it too!" ”

After hearing this, Chen Yuan smiled lightly and said, "Didn't Director Zhou of the Youth Film Studio promise to provide us with shooting equipment?" Brother Huang, Brother Gao, after dinner, you will go to implement this matter! ”

"No problem!" Gao Hu and Huang Bo glanced at each other and responded excitedly.

"Brother Guan, Brother Ning, you have connections in the circle, and the rest of the crew, including makeup artists, lighting artists, field affairs, etc., please entrust you!" Chen Yuan said again.

Guan Hu smiled and responded: "It's all a trivial matter!" The point is the question of money. Those people are afraid of arrears, and now they basically don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles! ”

"Money is a small problem," Chen Yuan nodded in response, "Since I have limited your filming time, I will provide you with sufficient funds!" The crew, except for the actors and directors, will increase their salaries by 20% according to the market! As long as they should do this errand, give them thirty percent of the advance payment! ”

Guan Hu grinned, "That's easy!" If nothing goes wrong, we can start working the day after tomorrow! ”

"The filming time of "Nightclub" is basically at night, so everyone can only rest during the day and work overtime at night!" Chen Yuan reminded, "I already have an idea about the specific location of the shooting, and I will notify you tomorrow afternoon!" ”

For the next period of time, Li Bing and others devoted their minds to the script. It was a full half hour before anyone looked up. On this occasion, it is naturally not suitable for a detailed reading of the script. A rough sweep, and being able to understand the general situation of the script is the limit.

Li Bing asked, "I have a question, it's the character problem of "Nightclub"! There are ** characters with a bit of weight, but we only have so many people, what about the rest? ”

Chen Yuan smiled faintly and said, "According to what I mean, He Sanshui's role will be handed over to Xu Zheng......"

"Xu Zheng?" Gao Hu reminded, "Xu Zheng is estimated to not be able to spare time......"

Speaking of this, he glanced at Guan Hu, but saw that the other party was laughing. He was surprised, "Why, am I not right?" Pipe guide! ”

"The day before yesterday, Chen Yuan asked me for Xu Zheng's contact information. Now that Chen Yuan said this, he should be sure! Guan Hu said.

"Xu Zheng has agreed to play this role." Chen Yuan responded, "I am going to give the role of Li Xiaolian to Sister Bingbing, the role of the robber will be handed over to Brother Gao, the role of Zhu Liao will be given to Brother Huang, the role of the tire will be given to Baoqiang, and the role of Uncle Liu will be a policeman!" ”

"Hey," Liu said, "how did you become an uncle when you came to me?" ”

Liu Hao has already stepped into the threshold of forty with one foot. Chen Yuan called him Uncle Liu, but there was nothing inappropriate.

"Also, I assigned a role to Maki in the script. She is still young, I hope everyone can take care of her a little more! Chen Yuan solemnly asked.

After finishing business, the hungry people were finally able to eat a satisfying duck feast.

After dinner, I went out of the store. Everyone was blown by the cold wind outside, and they all woke up in an instant.

Gao Hu asked worriedly: "Director Guan, Director Ning, can we really make a movie in eight days?" ”

Guan Hu and Ning Hao shook their heads at the same time......
