Chapter Seventy-Four: Happy Drama
Hengdian in July is so hot, and filming ancient costumes is even more painful, especially action scenes!
Fortunately, in the scenes in Hengdian, Xiaobai has no action scenes, there are more literary dramas, and Wei Xiaobao only has martial arts after he got Long'er's eight successes and all Chen Jinnan's skills in the second episode...
Of course, Jin Yong's original work, whether it is before or after the revision, Wei Xiaobao will not know martial arts!
Actually, it can come out, Mr. Jin Yong has changed greatly from "Book of Swords and Enmity" to "The Story of Deer and Ding"!
Chen Jialuo is anti-Qing and restored, and the character portrayal is relatively simple, either friend or foe.
Chen Jialuo commanded the heroes, commanded if he was determined, long and jade, cold and tall; Emperor Qianlong had an obscene image, was cruel and suspicious, gloomy and changeable.
This kind of role positioning inherits the creative mainstream of martial arts since the Republic of China: most of the chivalrous warriors of the Han people speak of truth, goodness and beauty, and the emperors and generals of different races are the embodiment of fake and ugly.
What about Wei Xiaobao?
He did not choose the imperial court, nor did he exhaust the last ounce of strength to overthrow the rule of the Qing Dynasty like his sad master Chen Jinnan, who was entangled in the dispute between the Manchus and the Hans.
He was happy to see prosperity and enjoy peace. After all, it is bloody and bloody, and it can only be ordinary people who suffer.
From Chen Jialuo to Wei Xiaobao, I felt that Mr. Jin Yong had let go, and the strings of national consciousness that had been very tight seemed to be soothed.
Before modern times, there was no concept of national sovereignty.
In the feudal society of "family world", whether it is Li Tang or Zhu Ming, they are all the dynasty of a certain family and the world of a certain family.
It is not surprising that the changing banner of the king in the city is a surging wave in the long river of history, and it is not surprising that the minority minorities occasionally take the lead, and there must be various objective reasons in the political, social, geographical and even climatic aspects of the time and the locality.
We shouldn't be too entangled, as for now, even if there are a few people who are full of relictions, how much climate can they achieve?
The barrel of the gun has always been in my D's hand, and now I am retracting the barrel of the pen step by step...
Ahem...
……
The night is very thin, the thin can't emit a cloud, there is no wind, the branches inside are listlessly scattered, even if it is a night play, it is hot to death!
The crew rearranged the whole scene and added a bunch of towers that could be pushed...
Now I'm going to shoot the Ao Bai War Heaven and Earth Meeting...
This is a big drama, Cheng Xiaodong has been preparing for three nights...
Forty or fifty crew members were busy on their own, dangling from the set to the set, slightly noisy.
After a while, everyone was ready, and the scene notes were played: "Ation! ”
There are too many characters, and they are all flying away, and there are several main actors, which causes too many shots to be filmed.
Of course, these shots need to be taken apart and shot separately - there is no need for so many group actors to be present!
There are many characters, many shots, large scenes, difficult scheduling, and a big problem is that it is absolutely impossible to shoot long shots of this fight, and many shots need to be picked out little by little.
It's really shooting, a lot of shots are just three or five seconds long!
As the saying goes, this job is a bit "broken", and you have to save it little by little, even if Cheng Xiaodong's team is powerful!
Therefore, after shooting one shot after another, more than an hour passed, and the venue was still that venue, and the people were still those people, but in fact, they didn't move forward much.
Xiaobai's role is very simple, the main task is paddling...
Just make sure you have a presence.
……
The summer file is in full swing!
This is a must for all directors and production companies who aspire to occupy a place in the Chinese film industry - even in the narrow sense of the summer, from the end of June to the end of August, about nine weeks, the box office generated by it accounts for more than 35% of the total box office of the year all year round! In a broad sense, the summer season, from the end of May to September, is as long as 17 weeks, accounting for more than 55% of the total box office of the year!
In the past few years, various companies have begun to pay attention to the summer file, and Bai Xiaofei's studio has been absent from the summer file for two years since "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance".
A "Truant Biography", when few people are optimistic, turned the tables against the wind and took a box office of 1.4 billion, with a total investment of only 100 million, plus the publicity and distribution of 150 million at most...
Everyone knows that this film is a derivative of "Truant Dragon", the plot or something, old-fashioned, but it just can't stand the audience's liking!
The director of this movie is called Manatee, no one has heard of it at all, and it is said that he is the cinematographer of the director of "Truant Dragon"...
Bai Xiaofei can make money, everyone knows and understands it, after all, his style is close to the audience, you can say that he is vulgar, but he is such a director!
But now, you're constantly releasing new directors, which is a bit too much!
is still the same sentence, the market is so big, you occupy it all, that is, you are ignorant!
The tree is a big move!
Shoot a movie with you, and the box office will be billion...
But fortunately, another movie was released in July, which barely alleviated the studio's dilemma - Twist's eighth movie "The Earl of Oolong Mountain", which washed away the infamy of Twist in recent years, and had a bumper harvest in word-of-mouth and box office!
There is also a "Famen City Code", starring Chen Kun and Brother Xun, directed by Xu Laowei, which will be released this Friday!
Speaking of "Famen Temple Code", Xu Laowei took over this project in 2013, when "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" had not yet been released...
It's embarrassing!
However, Xu Laowei and Chen Kun are still quite expected in terms of lineup...
Three new films were released this week, "When the Wind Rises Again" and "The Earth is Long and the Sky is Long", the latter is a new work directed by Wang Xiaoshuai, and he didn't listen to the sound at all, and was directly cut off the film...
Looking at this year's blockbuster, I can't find Huang Xiaoming and Yang Tianbao, these two people are finally gone...
For Xiaobai, the happiest thing is, of course, that the focus of media discussion has become whether the twist can wash away the haze of the previous years, and the phenomenon of black and white has been greatly alleviated...
……
At lunch time, in addition to the usual box lunch, the crew also specially arranged fruit plates and ice drinks, the weather was too hot!
"The Legend of Deer and Ding" watched a lot of group performances, but there were less than a hundred of them, and the crew was also a conscience, so they deliberately set up a tent for everyone to rest.
At this time, in Yang Lan's big RV, Bai Xiaofei was feasting Luo Dayou...
Because of the ending song of "The Legend of Deer and Ding", no one can sing "Happy Play" except Luo Dayou!
Uncle Zhan is long gone...
To be honest, the music producers of that generation were really masters!
I can write "Pearl of the Orient", "Queen's Road East", "Seventy-two Changes in Phenomena" and "Tomorrow Will Be Better".
Write about society, write about politics, write about public welfare.
Not radical, not flattering, not humble.
There is content, there is depth, there is rationality!
"This song is the lyrics I wrote according to Wei Xiaobao's life!"
“… Very well written! ”
Luo Dayou looked back at the tail with his eyes, and nodded with satisfaction: "Why do you want me to sing?" ”
Yes, Luo Dayou's status in the rivers and lakes is indeed very high, but he is already a totem...
The entertainment industry is like this, the higher the seniority, the more everyone respects it, rarely comes out to do things, at most Kaikai concerts, call a few old friends to circle some money together...
"Because only a voice like yours that has been polished over the years can sing the flavors of life in this song!"
