Before the film started, everything was going well.

Whether it's communication between departments, character exchanges, or finding the right filming location, it's smooth sailing.

Although silent movies don't need to have the right lines, the lines are also very important, because language is also an expression of emotions.

Even if there is no sound, the audience should be able to feel the feelings that the actor wants to express through the screen.

This is also the reason why most of the film actors at the beginning were actors, because they were highly trained.

At the beginning, most of the filmmakers opened photo studios, and they only understood the basic knowledge of photography.

But when the movie started, all the problems came out.

Photographers will only shoot with a fixed lens, and there is no aesthetic at all.

The gaffer is always unable to find his own position and often enters the camera.

The actors are not running in enough, and the styles do not match.

As for acting, Zhou Zhen didn't dare to have extravagant hopes at all, even Hollywood, France's film masters, have not yet formed a so-called performance system.

Nowadays, as long as a story can be told smoothly, it is enough.

And there is another place that Zhou Zhen is not used to.

In the shooting of later generations, you can directly see the shot shot, and you can see at a glance what is wrong.

But not now, except for the photographer's small shots, even the director doesn't know what the scene is like.

The film that is shot every day must be removed and printed before it can be played on a movie projector.

Then you will find that many shots do not shoot the desired effect at all, reshoots.

At this time, the editing is really to cut the film with a large pair of scissors.

Based on experience, the director cut the filmed film bit by bit, then pieced it together, and finally reprinted the film in order into a complete negative.

Everyone complained under Zhou Zhen's "strict" requirements. In their opinion, this movie has been sent well enough, but Zhou Zhen is just not satisfied.

As mentioned earlier, movie actress Wang Hanlun filmed by herself, edited by herself, participated in by herself, and made a movie.

Today's film shooting is so shoddy.

In later generations, Hong Kong films made a movie in half a month, and it was faster at this time, and there were even three days to make a movie.

Zhou Zhen didn't care about their grievances, and used his identity to coerce him. In his opinion, this movie is still shoddy, it's just a tall one in the short, and it's not much stronger.

Sun Cimei is a bit similar to the appearance and style of the international chapter of later generations, although she can't talk about acting skills, but she has learned to sing since she was a child, and she is still competent to play a role.

The main reason is that it is difficult to unify the styles of the current actors, in order to make the shots harmonious, Zhou Zhen kept improving and reshot many scenes.

In this movie, he consumed more film than the number of other people's five, and the cost rose significantly.

And the filming process alone took "a whole month".

The original film director Meng Guangzu has been completely convinced, he originally thought that Zhou Zhen was just a boy who played tickets, but Zhou Zhen's professionalism was much more advanced than him.

He changed from a director to an assistant director, and he specially worked for Zhou Zhen.

In the process of filming, Zhou Zhen seems to be "proficient" in every procedure of the crew, and even his acting skills are terrifying.

He has lectured to the male and female protagonists more than once, not only playing the role of the male protagonist very well, but even the form of the woman is also vividly displayed.

If it weren't for his identity, Meng Guangzu wanted to tell him more than once, just let him play the male lead.

Now is different from later generations, movie actors, like actors and girls, all belong to the lower nine popular days.

He dared to trick Zhou Zhen into participating in the movie, but Jin Rong dared to directly take a gun and collapse him.

After half a month of editing, Zhou Zhen added introductory sentences in Chinese and English to each clip of the movie.

Today's movies are similar to the comics of later generations, and they can't add subtitles when the plot is promoted.

So the movie is divided into paragraphs, and before each paragraph begins, there will be a subtitle introduction of about five seconds.

Through the introduction of subtitles, the audience can understand the storyline that will take place in the next stage.

If anyone has seen a silent film from the Chaplin era, they will know what is going on.

However, in the past, the magic capital movie would only add Chinese prompts, but now Zhou Zhen is meticulously crafted, plus English prompts, just to open up foreign markets.

"Angel on the Road" is a tragic film, and the plot is somewhat similar to "La Traviata", including "Breakfast at Tiffany's" starring Audrey Hepburn in the later generations, which is actually the same model.

Zhou Zhen has already thought of a slogan to promote in the West, "La Traviata" in the East.

In the movie, he focused on the beautiful scenery of the magic capital, Huang Chujiu's big world, and in this movie, he also showed the luxury of the East.

Who wouldn't have a cultural invasion?

At the end of October, the film was completed and premiered at Big World.

Four cinemas, all showing the film, and still actively promoting it.

In this era, there is no online piracy, and I don't care if it is released at the same time, as long as it is filmed, it will start to pay back.

Sometimes, a film will be shown in the north only after half a year of being shown in the south.

At the same time, Zhou Zhen is also actively communicating with major consulates, wanting to operate the film to be released abroad.

At this time, his identity played an important role, and the consuls of various countries watched this movie, whether they liked it or not, they were willing to provide convenience to him, the son of the prime minister.

He did not deal with companies from various countries, but communicated directly with the consulate, and was willing to offer a 10% profit commission to negotiate with businessmen from various countries through the consulate.

Kong Mao, the original manager of the film company, with four subordinates, was specifically responsible for this business.

With this relationship with the consulate, although there will be some additional costs, those foreign businessmen do not dare to defraud, let alone print film for private screening.

Soon, the Angel of the Road caused a sensation among the people and sparked a viewing frenzy.

The costumes of this film are extremely gorgeous, the scenery is luxurious, the actors are beautiful, the plot is tight, and the plot is complete.

Zhou Zhen applied the shooting experience of later generations to the current film a hundred years in advance, not to mention compared with domestic films, even compared with France, which is the most powerful filmmaker, it is far surpassing. (Hollywood cinema has always been an apprentice to French cinema in the beginning.) ）

So "Angel on the Road" became popular and became a hit.

Five cents a ticket is not cheap, but the cinema in the magic capital, as long as this movie is introduced, the audience is overwhelming.

In mid-November, Mrs. Jin came to the magic capital from the capital to see if her youngest son was living well in the magic capital.

At this time, it was the time when the movie was popular, and all major media were praising the movie.

Zhou Zhen took his mother to the box of the Big World Cinema to watch this movie, and the old lady burst into tears.

Originally, she was the most partial to this little son and the most worried, but Zhou Zhen came here for two months, and she broke out with such a momentum, so that she no longer had any worries.

Watching a movie on the screen, with the actors still sitting next to her, made Mrs. Kim extremely excited, watching the movie for a while, and looking at Sun Cimei for a while, this feeling obviously made her very comfortable.

After her mother served her, Zhou Zhen was relieved.

Although he doesn't have much affection for Mrs. Kim, after all, he occupies her son's identity, and he always has to make her comfortable and comfortable to be worthy of her.

Mrs. Jin is very satisfied with her son, but Bai Xiuzhu is a little dissatisfied.

She hopes that Zhou Zhen will always be by her side and enjoy a romantic life.

But when he came to the magic capital, Zhou Zhen was busy most of the time, socializing people from all walks of life, and making movies.

Now that the movie has been made and is so popular, although it satisfies her vanity, she is getting more and more unaccustomed to Sun Cimei.

This girl is beautiful, and now she has become a big star, and a fool can see that her eyes are full of fascination with Zhou Zhen.

She is not afraid that a drama will threaten her status, but she is afraid that she will share the love that belongs to her Xiaoqi.

In a beautiful house in the concession, Huang Chujiu's eyes widened in surprise. "How much?"

"It's half a million."

"The film company can divide half of the ......, that is to say, in just over half a month, the magic capital plus the periphery can divide 250,000!"

"Yes."

"If that's the ...... of the whole country"

The middle-aged man in front of Huang Chujiu said: "The ticket prices in other places will not be as high as those in the magic capital, and the tickets in many places are only one or two cents. However, according to estimates, in China, the film can also sell five million. ”

Huang Chujiu gasped. "It's amazing, in the past, a movie sold for tens of thousands of dollars and made a lot of money, but this time, it has increased a hundred times. I really didn't expect to make such a lot of money ...... making movies."

The middle-aged man said with a smile: "Selling medicine is a few cents of profit, and when the movie is made, it is several times, dozens of times the profit, and I can be regarded as an eye-opener this time." ”

Huang Chujiu said: "You are about to go to Europe, and it is not easy to get in touch with the prime minister's son, you must do things carefully." ”

"I understand."

In the Huang Mansion in another place, another Huang boss was also shocked by the news he received.

"500,000 yuan, how many feasts does Lao Tzu have to sell to make so much money, and the money will flow in like water in the past month."

As a low-level tycoon, he attaches more importance to Zhou Zhen, the prime minister's son.

He knew very well that he was only criticizing the people at the bottom, and the real people at the top did not take him seriously, otherwise, he would not have been in the overseer's office, and he would have made him miserable.

He wants to fight for the upper echelons, and Zhou Zhen's identity is very important.

Hundreds of thousands are not in his eyes, and his current family property is at least several million, but he is shocked by the speed of the money.

I thought it was a Yanei, but now I realize that this is a capable person with goods in his belly!

Look again, if this prime minister's son is really reliable, he will take refuge with his family.

It is said that Jin Quan is now gaining momentum, and it is said that in two years, the prime minister's son will become the president's son.
