Chapter 281: Worry
Chen Ping'an didn't know that he had entered the sight of the intelligence agency early. After returning to Hong Kong, in addition to just getting off the plane and being interviewed by reporters outside the airport, he only accepted an exclusive interview with "Oriental Daily", and then devoted himself to the filming of "Wong Fei Hung".
In the past few days since he left, Xu Ke temporarily took the position of director. The shooting effect is not to say, it is completely in line with Chen Ping'an's expectations, but the problem is that after Xu Ke took the helm, the overall filming progress of "Huang Feihong" dropped sharply.
It's not that Xu Ke is shooting too slowly or for some other reason, but because he didn't hang up.
From start-up to release, the amount of film consumed in filming and printing of a film far exceeds that of the final release. For example, the later "Terminator 2" was shot and processed on more than a million feet of film, and the final release was far less than 1% of it.
Xu Ke's filming of "Huang Feihong" naturally did not reach this terrifying proportion, but the film consumed was far more than Chen Ping'an. In order to ensure that the best results can be achieved in the final edit, the director will shoot many shots from different angles several times when shooting a movie. Only Chen Ping'an is an exception.
He has a ready-made release in his head, and unless he thinks it is necessary to modify it, he may shoot it several times for post-editing to choose, and almost everywhere else he doesn't repeat the shot as long as he shoots it.
Such an advantage not only saves film and thus saves expenses, but also ensures the speed of Chen Ping'an's filming. Wang Jing, Guan Jinpeng, Chen Jiashang and other people who have served as assistant directors for him have sighed in their hearts many times.
This time it was Xu Ke's turn.
As Chen Ping'an returned to control, the crew's filming progress returned to its previous speed, and Xu Ke sighed: "Boss." What the hell is your brain up for? ”
"How?"
"You only shot that shot once?"
"Isn't it over?"
The corners of Xu Ke's mouth twitched twice: "Don't you need to shoot a few more times." Have a comparison in post-editing? ”
"I think that shot is fine."
"You mean post-editing isn't useful?"
"I didn't say that."
"But you did! I only shot that shot once, is it necessary to edit it in post-production? And you've only shot a lot of the images once. ”
"Anla Lao Xu. I've done the same with other movies, and I know what to expect. ”
Xu Ke thought about it, Chen Ping'an made movies well-known fast, and the effect after filming was ...... It seems that each one is good. Thinking of this, he felt that his worries were a little redundant, so he still concentrated on being a good assistant director, and at the same time learned some directing techniques from Chen Ping'an.
"Applejack, do you want to be on the bench? Didn't hurt, did you? Okay, you warm up. ”
"Attention extras. Strictly follow the position you told before, and don't panic. If this can be smooth, the lunch box will cost a chicken leg per person! ”
"WIA Group inspects equipment!"
"The lighting changes should be controlled, just half a beat slower, and Ajie's front shot is a little dark."
"The camera is quickly buried!"
"Attention to all departments, the second shooting of the 3rd shot of the 113th scene of "Huang Feihong", Exon!"
……
In the newspapers in early April, Chen Ping'an was being promoted all over the world, promoting him at the Oscars. Winner of Best Documentary Feature Film for "City of Myths". Seeing this report, everyone had different thoughts.
The bosses of various film companies would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Chen Ping'an, and then ask about the filming of "Terminator 2". A $100 million investment is too much. It's so big that it makes people tremble and feel uneasy.
They really wanted to ask Chen Ping'an in person and get a box office guarantee from him. Although it's just a sentence. But with and without the effect, the effect is completely different for them. Even they are willing to believe that the movie invested by Chen Ping'an can make money.
But Chen Ping'an is busy filming "Huang Feihong" every day. turned down all the invitations, even if it was Cheng Long's birthday party, he just asked the dwarf cow to send a generous gift on his behalf, as well as his sincere apology, saying that he was busy with movie shooting recently and really couldn't spare time.
For this reason, some media fanned the flames in the newspaper, saying that Chen Ping'an became unpopular after winning the Oscar, and he didn't even attend Cheng Long's birthday party, which was too arrogant. also said that he was able to step into the film industry smoothly, completely thanks to Cheng Long's blessing, without that "Police Story", who knows him Chen Ping'an?
Such a report is naturally written by "Sing Tao Daily". For this reason, a reporter immediately interviewed Cheng Long and asked him what he thought of the report, and what he thought if Chen Ping'an did not attend the birthday party.
In front of many reporters, Cheng Long once again emphasized his friendship with Chen Ping'an, and severely criticized the groundless speculation of "Sing Tao Daily" that Mo Hei and Chen Ping'an had provoked the relationship between the two. In fact, two days before his birthday, Chen Ping'an made a special phone call to apologize for not being able to attend his birthday party, and told Cheng Long the reason - Chen Ping'an did not want to meet with the bosses of other film companies before the end of the third fundraising order.
"Why?" Cheng Long was very curious, and it was difficult for him to understand many of Chen Ping'an's practices.
"I'm afraid they won't be impressed!"
On the phone, hearing Chen Ping'an say this familiar sentence with a smile, Cheng Long laughed. At the beginning, Chen Ping'an asked him to give this sentence to Zou Wenhuai, and now it is this sentence again, Cheng Long felt in a trance at that time.
Chen Ping'an doesn't owe anyone, isn't it enough for him to put the opportunity to make money in front of his peers? Does he have to promise and promise to invite others to share his share?
Willing to come, unwilling to come, want my assurance and commitment...... Isn't my "Chen Ping'an" three words enough?
Every fund-raising order gives people a feeling of heart-pounding, and it is also Chen Ping'an's intention, the purpose is to make those who missed out because of hesitation regret it, deepen their impression, and make them understand that the United States is full of gold. Even if it seems to be risky, the potential for benefit is huge.
"I see. But you owe me a favor this time! ”
"It's good to say, Brother Long will be sent in the future, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Before his birthday, Chen Ping'an made a special phone call to explain, and sent someone to send a generous gift on his birthday, and at the same time promised to be a favor for himself before, in this case, how could the friendship between Cheng Long and Chen Ping'an be affected?
Chen Ping'an's name appears in the newspapers every day, and it has had a greater or lesser impact on the lives of many people.
Li Jiaxin's house.
Every dinner time, it is the happiest and warmest moment for the three mothers and daughters of the Li family. The mother and daughter sat around the dining table, tasting the delicacies carefully prepared by their mother, listening to the interesting stories of the two daughters at school today, and the family laughed and laughed happily.
"Mommy, Brother An is very popular now, and the newspapers are reporting on him every day." Since the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, after Chen Pingan spent the night at Li's house, Li Jiaming now also began to call Chen Pingan "Brother An".
Mother Li smiled: "I also read it, I have long said that Mr. Chen is a person with great ability, and our family has met a nobleman." ”
"It was Michelle who met the nobleman, and our family followed suit." Li Jiaming smiled and sandwiched a roast goose leg for Li Jiaxin, "Then again, Michelle, since you finished filming, you rarely go to the same school for the night!" ”
Li Jiaxin stiffened her pretty face and returned the roast goose leg to Li Jiaming: "I want you to take care of it!" ”
"You kid, how can you talk to your sister?" Mother Li is very good at mediating the conflict between her two daughters, "And you, don't you talk about Mr. Chen again, why did you suddenly mention Michelle?" ”
"It's okay Mommy." Li Jiaming smiled and winked at Li Jiaxin, "I mean, if Michelle doesn't go to the same school to review her homework, you can find a time to invite Brother An to come to the house for dinner." I remember he also liked to eat Mommy's food. ”
Li Jiaxin quickly pulled two mouthfuls of rice, and then pushed the rice bowl: "Mommy, I'm full, go back to the room to do your homework." ”
"I didn't eat it if I ate so much......
"Mommy, I'm full too, I'm going to see Michelle's homework."
"These two children ......" Mother Li shook her head helplessly and continued to eat.
Li Jiaxin didn't do her homework, she lay on the bed and didn't say a word. Li Jiaming came in without knocking, and she didn't pay attention to it, just turned over and left her back to Li Jiaming.
"Michelle, are you in conflict with Brother An?" Li Jiaming sat on the bed and gently shook his sister's shoulder, "Don't be petty and deliberately don't see him." If you miss the opportunity, you will regret it for the rest of your life. ”
"How can I!" Li Jiaxin sat up happily, her face full of grievances, "It was he who said not to meet during this time, let me review my homework and prepare for the exam, I wanted to go to see him, but he didn't agree." ”
That's right! Li Jiaming frowned, and after thinking for a long time, he asked seriously: "I ask you a few questions, you must answer me honestly." Don't keep your mouth shut, it's very important, it's about you and his future, you know? ”
Li Jiaxin nodded.
Li Jiaming asked: "When you were making a movie, did you make him angry?" ”
"Nope."
"Did he call you before he left for the United States?"
"Hmm."
"Did he call you when he was in the United States?"
“…… No. ”
"Did he call you when he came back?"
"Yes."
"How long have we been talking?"
"Half an hour...... My big brother is out of power. ”
"Oh...... What the? Do you still have a big brother? ”
"That's right, Brother An sent it to me!"
"Then did he say why he didn't see each other during this time?"
"No, he just said to make me obedient, and it was for my good." Li Jiaxin suddenly hugged Li Jiaming's arm, "Sister, I'm so worried that he doesn't like me, do you think he has changed his mind?" ”
Li Jiaming put on an eldest sister's style: "I don't know if he has changed his mind, but I know that there must be a lot of women around him." If you want not to be dumped, you must wrap yourself up on him. ”
"But I can't even see him now."
"Who says you have to meet?" The corners of Li Jiaming's mouth curled slightly, "I have a way to help you, maybe he can't help but want to see you...... Do you want to hear it. ”
Li Jiaxin nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Yes, yes." ”
"So what's in it for me?" (To be continued......) R1292
