Xu Hengzhou was relieved, and people in the industry naturally would not let go of this opportunity.

Therefore, the movie "The Wandering Earth" can be said to have been well received by the audience from the beginning of the preparation period, and everyone has been involved in this movie, so it is natural to hope that this project can be a great success, and I hope that this movie can get a super high box office, so that everyone can get rich remuneration.

With such expectations, the progress of the project "The Wandering Earth" has been unusually smooth, and there have been almost no twists and turns, even if there is a little difficulty, it has been invested before it reaches Xu Hengzhou's ears, and the large and small investors of this project have solved it easily.

The advantage of having a large number of investors and complex relationships lies here, some things may be an unsolvable problem in the eyes of a single investor, but in the eyes of another investor, it may be a very beautiful thing that can be handled at hand.

Although Xu Hengzhou didn't deliberately pay attention to this, he could fully feel the smoothness of the crew's operation, which was better than his previous operation of other projects.

Obviously, the project "The Wandering Earth", both in terms of investment amount and the size of its own project, is much more complex and huge than the project he operated before, but Xu Hengzhou feels that he is particularly easy to operate, and if he is not careful, the filming progress of the entire crew has passed most of it.

The moment he pulled out of the two-month shooting activity, it was somewhat abrupt.

The filming of this film went completely beyond his imagination.

Originally, he thought that the filming of such a large-scale 3D science fiction movie would take half a year to a year just for the production of 3D special effects.

But under the "crowdfunding", he spent a lot of money to buy horse bones, spent enough money, and was ruthless enough, and the progress was much faster than he expected!

Especially in addition to Nicholas Tse's special effects company, they also found a lot of very experienced special effects companies abroad and outsourced some tedious work to them, so that all projects could be carried out in a unified time, which greatly saved time.

The production progress here is fast, and the filming progress of Xu Hengzhou's side is also very fast, not to mention the cooperation of the staff, and the actors are also very cooperative, especially when they find that the shooting requirements given by Xu Hengzhou in the crew are particularly clear, and as long as they meet the shooting requirements required by Xu Hengzhou, there will be no more temporary changes, and Xu Hengzhou's authority as a director in the crew is even more recognized, so the cooperation is more tacit.

Especially Wu Jing, the core star of this movie, was actually preparing for the movie he directed during this time, and when Xu Hengzhou first came over, he didn't plan to be distracted as an actor to shoot other people's movies.

Especially when he was completely confused, he didn't know why the other party wanted to shoot this movie by himself.

Because this movie does not involve the part of fighting, and his positioning in the entertainment industry has always been a martial arts actor.

But with the decline of martial arts films in recent years, in fact, he has almost become an invisible person in the entertainment industry, and few film and television works have asked him to play the starring role or the main supporting role.

It is precisely because of this that after two years of precipitation, he decided to transform into a director, and the direction he chose is also the military theme that has gradually become popular in recent years according to popular TV series.

In his opinion, if this theme can become popular in the TV drama circle, then it can also become popular in the film circle, and compared to TV series, there are actually very few movies with this kind of theme, so he feels that he may be able to open up a new path.

Especially this kind of military-themed movie, it is very suitable for him, and he can give full play to his advantages in martial arts performance in this kind of movie.

Wu Jing has invested a lot of feelings and expectations in this movie, so his thoughts in the recent period have actually been all on this movie.

But he finally agreed to Xu Hengzhou's invitation and joined the filming of the movie "The Wandering Earth".

Without him, the money is too much!

Making movies is too expensive, and during the filming of the movie directed by himself, Wu Jing not only invested all his savings over the years, but even mortgaged his house, so that the money-burning crew could sustain.

Because the film he shot was not favored by the outside world, even if he had already filmed the second half of the movie, some investors still chose to withdraw their funds.

And because their crew didn't have much investment, they basically relied on Wu Jing's own investment to run the entire project, so every penny of the crew was carefully budgeted and arranged, and once a fund was withdrawn so suddenly, then all the plans would collapse instantly, and the operation of the crew would be stagnant.

This is tantamount to earth-shattering news for Wu Jing, but for Xu Hengzhou, it is a good opportunity to start.

He has watched the first and second parts of the movie "Wolf Warrior", and he feels that in terms of plot alone, the first part is much better than the second part, but when the first part of this series of movies was filmed, due to the shortage of investment from the crew, it could not be produced in place in many details, and in terms of publicity, it was even more powerless.

But even in this case, the first work was a great success, and it also brought Wu Jing new popularity and status, making him successful in the entertainment industry and becoming a hot director.

It is precisely because of this that the second film will attract so much investment, and thus more money, which can make the second film in this series more sophisticated.

Then he threw a lot of money on publicity, so he had the second film in the series that became the box office champion of the year.

Xu Hengzhou felt that since he happened to see this opportunity, he should not miss it, and he directly expressed to Wu Jing that he was willing to invest in this movie, and it was not a small investment.

He is willing to support this movie, that is, as long as Wu Jing is willing to accept his investment, then he can accept unconditionally how much Wu Jing wants to invest in this movie in the future.

Then he took the opportunity to put forward the idea that he hoped that Wu Jing could be the starring role in the movie he is directing now, and proposed that the movie "The Wandering Earth" could be linked with Wu Jing's "Wolf Warrior".

Of course, this linkage does not refer to the simultaneous screening at the same time, so as to thin out the box office of the same period, but refers to the formation of linkage in publicity.

Wu Jing was very moved when he heard it, just investing in it, he was already very excited, not to mention being able to do linkage promotion with Xu Hengzhou's movie.

Although he had not cooperated with Xu Hengzhou before, he had also heard of Xu Hengzhou's name.

At the beginning, I knew that there was a young actor in the entertainment industry with particularly good acting skills, and in just one or two years, he won two actor crowns.

Then what he listened to the most in recent times was the speed of Xu Hengzhou's film release after his transformation into a director, which was really amazing, and the point was that the movies he directed were all high-quality, and they all won a super high box office!

Because Wu Jing himself is now taking such a path, transforming from an actor to a director, he has paid more and more attention to Xu Hengzhou.

Then I learned more about Xu Hengzhou's deeds, and knew that he was not only an actor and director, but also a very powerful investor in the industry, and the projects he invested in were all high-quality projects, and he had no losses, all of them were big profits!

So when Wu Jing heard that Xu Hengzhou planned to invest in his own film, he instantly felt a great sense of satisfaction and pride, in fact, he has always been very confident that the movie he shot will be a success, but the people around him don't believe it.

Moreover, almost everyone is telling him that every creator is overconfident in their work, and he is the same.

Wu Jing heard this, in fact, he felt that he couldn't refute it, but he was really making this movie very carefully, and when he was filming this movie, he didn't engage in any fiction, and it was completely in accordance with the standard commercial martial arts film.

Although there are some patriotic feelings in the filming of this movie, and it is also a military theme, in fact, he actually wants to make a movie that can make money and make himself successful.

There is no conflict between the two, and if the film can be successful, then this patriotic feeling can spread even further.

But whether it is about feelings or business, the movie he shot has not been recognized by the people around him, even if he has invested some money in this movie, it is basically because of the investment of human feelings.

It was the first time that Wu Jing had been recognized by others for the filming of this movie, so he was very excited and had a feeling of meeting a bosom friend.

Without half a moment's hesitation, he agreed to the cooperation that Xu Hengzhou said.

Although he still doesn't know why Xu Hengzhou asked him to star in "The Wandering Earth", a project that all actors in the entertainment industry are very willing to enter, but since Xu Hengzhou believes in him so much, in order to stabilize his willingness to invest in his "Wolf Warrior" in the cycle, he also has to play the role of Xu Hengzhou well.

Of course, this is also for himself, if he can regain the love of the audience through the appearance of this movie, return to the public's field of vision, and have enough popularity, then the "Wolf Warrior" he shot himself will also attract more attention and will be easier to succeed.

Both of them have their own minds, but they also have the same purpose, to do these two projects seriously, so the cooperation is particularly smooth.

And "Wolf Warrior" also suspended filming during this time.

Although the shutdown of a crew will inevitably burn countless money, the situation of their crew is different, and the economic situation itself is already diligent, so many things can be simplified, especially when the investment is used up many times, their crew is said to stop, and they have very rich experience in this regard.

Once even stopped for half a year, and in the end, Wu Jing was able to continue filming the film by relying on his own mortgage and real estate loan.

So this time, the suspension of filming by the crew of "Wolf Warrior" is not a big deal for Wu Jing, and it is also an easy thing to accept for the entire crew.

And after the relevant personnel of Wu Jingxiang's crew solemnly promised to stop filming this time, the next time it is restarted, it will definitely get sufficient funds to make a big move, and when the film is finished, the morale of the entire crew will be greatly boosted.

This is the first time Wu Jing has said such a thing, and in order to run this crew smoothly, Wu Jing does not dare to guarantee anything else in the drama, but the credibility is definitely very high.

Since Wu Jing said so, it shows that he has definitely found a very reliable investor.

The pure shooting time of this movie is actually not much, but because of the intermittent shooting, the acquaintance time of the crew has been extended.

The staff has a deep affection for this movie and the crew.

I also don't want this movie to die there.

So after hearing the good news at this time, I was excited and looked for another job with some peace of mind, and then waited for the reconvening of the "Wolf Warrior" crew.

And Wu Jing worked diligently in the crew of "The Wandering Earth" for two months, and probably figured out why Xu Hengzhou let him play this role, although he didn't feel that he was particularly consistent with the image of this role.

But on Xu Hengzhou's side, he felt that his image was too suitable for this role, when he saw this in a science fiction magazine, the image that had been in his mind was Wu Jing's face.

Wu Jing: ...... There is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not, although he made a martial arts movie back then, he played Fang Shiyu......

And the role of Liu Peiqiang is a man who has gone through vicissitudes.

Although he has grown older over the years, he really can't play such a tender role, but he really hasn't played this kind of middle-aged and elderly man's tonal role.

Xu Hengzhou was actually too impressed by the original work of this movie, so he changed several actors to replace Wu Jing's face, and found someone to audition, but he couldn't make himself agree with the role played by the other party.

There was really no way, so he found Wu Jing, who was actually not very famous at this time.

However, the movie he shot already has enough traffic, and he doesn't care if the leading actor is a popular star.

In short, after bringing Wu Jing here, let the other party act in a little play, although the acting skills of the other party's role may not be as good as other actors who came to audition before, but Xu Hengzhou still looks very pleasing to the eye.

Especially Wu Jing is really a very hard worker, and after entering the crew, he has a deeper understanding of this role every day, and his acting skills are becoming more and more proficient.

Xu Hengzhou completely let go of his previous worries.

I concentrated on the shooting.

Until the movie "You, Me and Him" came to the news that it was shortlisted for the Golden Horse Awards.
