Chapter 9 Zhao Yan

I came to participate in the commendation meeting of the Directors Guild, mainly to worship the mountain.

After all, I joined the association, I don't know the boss, and I haven't even participated in a group activity, isn't it a shame?

Many seniors are still very kind to Xiaobai, after all, their debut film won a billion box office.

Of course, during the dinner, Xiaobai still sat at a table with Zhang Shan and Xiao Dong.

In other words, the directors who are still active on the front line, except for those who cross borders, the rest are basically from Nortel.

Fifth generation, sixth generation...

Teacher Chen is not, Teacher Chen is a legend, he was admitted to the drama that year, he was expelled from school because of fighting, and he was admitted to the Chinese opera two years later!

When he starred in his film debut "Judge's Mother" in his junior year, he was nominated for Best Actor at the Hundred Flowers Awards, Best Newcomer at the Huabiao Awards, and won the Best Newcomer Award at the Beijing University Student Film Festival.

If he follows this path, Mr. Chen should become an actor like Liu Huohua or Qin Hao, and then he will make his own films.

The success of "Northern Love" made him completely prominent!

"Detective Chinatown" is a super god movie, starring: Wang Baobao, Tong Liya, Chen He, Pan Yueming, director: Mr. Chen, this movie has created a precedent, successfully gathering the cheaters and the derailed...

Sanduo, look at the success of others!

reminds me of the words that Xu Sanduo warned Chengcai in "Soldier Assault": "Life can't be too comfortable, if it's too comfortable, there will be problems!" ”

……

Whether you are filming a movie or a TV series, you don't need actors to follow the crew throughout the process.

The director will divide the plot into several paragraphs, and you can flash after filming your scene, unless it is the kind of character who has a relationship with many people, and you may need to follow the whole process.

Sitcoms such as "Wulin Gaiden" are different from ordinary film and television dramas, and the actors are fixed, so several leading actors need to follow the group.

Another point is that the scenes where the story takes place are relatively simple, and basically all the episodes take place in the Tongfu Inn.

Eighteen Lipu, Louzhi County, Xilianghe, White Horse Academy, and Cuiwei Mountain are all existences that only hear their names and do not see their things!

The most outrageous is the Yihong Building built opposite the Tongfu Inn, you said that Xiao Guo went in and smashed it, so I gave a close-up of the scene!

No...

All the shots are of Tongfu Inn.

There is no way, at that time, funds were tight, and even the few guys who often made cameo appearances for dinner were all played by the drama, for fear that the audience would recognize them, so they changed the table every time and acted as props...

Xiaobai is different, he has money!

The most important thing is that the film and television base covers a wide area, and many buildings are under construction, and when they are done, they need to show their faces in his TV series, so even if it is for the propaganda task, Xiaobai will play a little bigger!

The northernmost corner is completely the Seven Heroes Town of "Wulin Gaiden" - according to Chen Laoba's words, all the streets of the costume drama are similar, after completion, there is no worry that there is no crew to shoot, even if there is not, it can be regarded as a tourist attraction, collect tickets or something...

……

At the end of March, the spring breeze blows.

Xihong City ushered in a short spring.

In the spring season, the trees on both sides of the road begin to bud and become green...

Zhao Yan wore a black suit and sat in the back of a taxi, he was going to attend the first meeting of the cast of "Wulin Gaiden".

Zhao Yan wants to leave a good impression on everyone.

As the director, Bai Xiaofei was also on the scene.

Actually, I met Bai Xiaofei in the crew of "Heart" last year, and when I remembered to find him for any drama, it was a joke!

After all, Zhao Yan is already a third-tier actor in China, and there are still many TV drama scripts looking for him.

In contrast, Xiaobai only had one "Waste Wood Brothers" at that time, the web drama...

Lo exploded!

When he received the script of "Wulin Gaiden", Zhao Yan subconsciously resisted a little.

Comedy is a genre that not all actors like.

This is especially true for sitcoms!

Can't show acting skills...

Another point, Zhao Yan is a little worried that this show has no audience - who still watches sitcoms these days? If you want to watch funny, watch comedy variety shows directly!

Variety shows such as Comedy Story and Happy Comedian have replaced the original sitcom...

There are fewer and fewer good TV series, and many popular actors have gone to reality shows, maybe variety shows are too popular now, and everyone is bent on this cake!

It is risky for Xiaobai to launch "Wulin Gaiden" at such a time.

In the context of the great development of the Internet, it is becoming easier and easier for people to obtain entertainment resources, WeChat public accounts, Weibo marketing accounts, online comedies, various apps, etc., including the offline comedy market, which is becoming increasingly prosperous, and people's consumption patterns of comedy have changed dramatically.

Humorous resources that can use fragments of time to make quick laughs are highly regarded, while sitcoms, because they take up a long time and do not conform to the fast-paced life, their status is not as good as before.

In the era of traffic, capital control, no team has the patience to do sitcoms anymore, everyone is busy making money...

Whether there is any intention or not, you can see it from the script!

After reading the script of "Wulin Gaiden", Zhao Yan was particularly interested in the character of Bai Zhantang!

Stealing the holy white jade soup, because he was tired of the wandering life in the rivers and lakes, he settled in the Tongfu Inn and changed his name to Bai Zhantang.

Hearty temperament, sensible, responsible, strong in martial arts, good at making sunflower point acupuncture, light skills and other moves, handsome appearance, can always make people smile;

greedy for enjoyment, good at lying, sometimes likes to talk nonsense regardless of the occasion, fakes acquaintance with everyone, has no face and no skin, is lazy to eat;

This role, Zhao Yan likes it very much!

He got the script in August last year, when Xiaobai's "Knocking on Heaven's Door" had not yet been released...

Now, Zhao Yan is extremely glad about his decision!

A TV series directed by a billion box office director, you can imagine how much attention it will have!

It's like "Great Expectations", before the broadcast, a bunch of people had all kinds of expectations...

Regardless of the quality of the drama "Great Expectations", the topicality and popularity are guaranteed.

For actors, to be able to show their faces in a hit drama and be the protagonist, such an opportunity is hard to find!

Zhao Yan was a little hesitant, what kind of attitude should he use to face Bai Xiaofei later?

In a year, the little brother of Mr. Zhao, who was following him at the beginning, has now become the youngest billion-dollar box office director in the mainland, and the opportunities in life are really amazing!

"Knocking on the Door of Heaven", he also went to see it.

I have to say, it's a good movie.

Zhao Yan sometimes thinks that if he also participated in "Knocking on the Door of the Heavenly Tiger", does it mean that he is also a big-screen actor?

"Master, pull over."

Finally arrived at the destination, a very chic Hunan restaurant...

Zhao Yan got out of the car, and then under the guidance of the attendant at the door, he went up to the third floor, the box on the right side of the corridor...
