Chapter 114: Selling Sand in the Peak Year
Shen Mengfei looked at the funny character dialogues and funny action descriptions of the characters in (The Fool Sells Sand), Shen Mengfei laughed, this work is too funny.
After laughing for a while, Shen Mengfei finally stopped.
At this time, a very important question suddenly occurred to him.
Who will play the role of the fool Wangnian? You can't do it yourself, can you?
To be honest, Shen Mengfei resisted the role of the fool Wangnian in every way, and he didn't want to play a fool.
"Good luck elf, if I don't participate in this script, but I'm in charge of directing, will it be considered the progress of completing the main quest to make the audience laugh?" Shen Mengfei summoned the Good Luck Spirit and asked.
Shen Mengfei had never asked the Good Luck Elf about this question, so he didn't know the specific completion mechanism of the main quest.
Do you want to be completely in charge, or do you just want to be part of it?
"Master, as long as you participate in the action or image that makes the audience laugh, you are doing a task."
"If you're participating, only the scene you appear in is considered a participatory role, not the entire work, but as a post-production and director, you can count the entire work as part of it." The Good Luck Elf explained.
"That means that I'm in charge of directing, and I don't have to participate."
"Okay, I'll find an actor with a talent for comedy to star in the role." Shen Mengfei said.
"Master, a good actor is not afraid to challenge any role, if you give up playing because the role doesn't feel good, then your path to being an actor will not be able to reach the top."
"The good luck elf's advice to the master is for the master to challenge the role himself." Good luck elf said.
Good luck elf is right, I shouldn't give up playing this role because it's funny and funny, a good actor shouldn't be afraid to challenge any role, the role of fool, I took it.
After confirming the male lead in the work of the leading actor (a fool selling sand), Shen Mengfei began to study the script, and there were some unreasonable points, and he would revise them directly.
Whatever you do, there has to be reasonableness.
Shen Mengfei can't shoot the kind of drama that tears the devil, and he can't shoot the kind of TV series like a normal person playing basketball and jumping three meters high to cover someone else's hat.
There are also those who clearly said that they were going out to make an appointment, but they danced there for a long time, and the two of them were stunned that they didn't even touch each other's hairs in the TV series is also embarrassing.
If you want to make a movie or TV series, you have to shoot it normally and reasonably.
After revising some of the unreasonable parts of the script, Shen Mengfei felt that the name of the script should also be revised.
Shen Mengfei replaced the fool with the name of the protagonist and changed the name of the script to Selling Sand in the Prosperous Year.
The Fugui Village, where the protagonist of Wangnian sells sand in Wangnian is located, is close to the sea, so Shen Mengfei set the filming location in Haicheng.
In mid-November, the auction of the sand mark in the prosperous year officially started in Haicheng.
In addition to the protagonist Shen Mengfei, all the other characters are newcomers from Mengwan Entertainment, which not only saves costs, but also gives them the opportunity to experience.
Mengwan Entertainment is a warm company, and Shen Mengfei promised everyone who joins Mengwan Entertainment that he will definitely give everyone who has the opportunity to shine.
Shen Mengfei promised so, and he did so.
Whether it is (Glory at Sea) or (Seeing Life), (First Love to Dusk), the end of the movie will release fancy easter eggs from the crew and actors, and the final subtitles will also add the name of everyone involved.
In addition to the actors, Mengwan Entertainment has also taken care of every singer, singers like Shen Xiangling and Chu Yuhe, who already have a certain amount of traffic, and the company has helped them tailor-made and released an album.
Those talented singers have also released albums, and the worst artists have also released singles.
Mengwan Entertainment singers and actors will help each other recommend each other, so every actor and singer is relatively successful.
......
The cast of the sand crew in the prosperous year is in place, and the lighting
In place, the photography is in place, the environment is set up early, and everything is ready to go.
tion!
The opening shot was shot with a long lens.
Six children aged four or five played a game of wolf and sheep next to the grove at the entrance of the village.
The camera slowly pushes over.
The kids were having a great time, but the unexpected struck suddenly.
When he was playing the wolf in Wangnian, he accidentally tripped over a raised tree root while chasing his partner who played the lamb, and he slammed his head into the tree.
Seeing the blood rushing out of the prosperous year, the friends were frightened and shouted wildly.
Fortunately, there were a few villagers nearby, and they heard the children's shouts and immediately rushed over.
After taking Wang Nian back to the village clinic to treat his wounds briefly, Wang Nian was sent to a big hospital in the county town.
Thanks to the adults who brought Wang Nian back to the village clinic in time to treat a round of wounds, the big hospital successfully saved Wang Nian's life.
However, because there was a piece of blood in the brain that was connected to the cranial nerve, it pressed on the cranial nerve of Wangnian, so Wangnian did not wake up for a long time.
In the face of that bruise, the doctors in the hospital could not do anything.
In the end, relying on an old Chinese medicine doctor to prescribe a prescription, he successfully eliminated the congestion in Wangnian's brain.
When Wangnian woke up, he couldn't remember what had happened at all.
Although the congestion has been eliminated, Wangnian's cranial nerves have been compressed, and Wangnian has become a fool.
Previously, the creator of Mengwan Entertainment wrote that Wangnian hit the table leg, but Shen Mengfei felt that it was not very reasonable, so he changed it to hit a big tree.
...
In order to take better care of Wangnian, the parents did not want a second child, and with the passage of time, Wangnian gradually grew up.
The parents knew that they would grow old, so they decided to give Wangnian the right thing to be self-reliant.
Although Wangnian was stupid, his body was strong, so his father taught him to pick sand and sell it in the town.
After bringing it more than ten or twenty times, my father chose to let Wang Nian pick the sand and sell it by himself. In fact, it was said that he let Wangnian go by himself, at first, his father was still not at ease, and quietly followed behind, and over time, after finding that Wangnian could do it, his father did not continue to follow secretly.
...
Playing the role of Wang Nian is not a big deal for Shen Mengfei, and he frequently NG during filming.
"Click, do it all over again."
"Click, one more."
"Click, I'm sorry everyone, I didn't show the look in my eyes very well just now, let's do it all over again." Shen Mengfei shouted again and again to do it again.
In addition to the difficulty of the challenge of the role of Wangnian, the challenge of the role of the drunkard is also a bit difficult.
Many times, the assistant director said that it had been filmed very well, and the follow-up was to make it into an animation, and if there were slight flaws, he could help correct them in the later stage.
Shen Mengfei said that if he ignores the flaws because he knows that there is post-production that can help correct them, then he is not worthy of being called a qualified actor and director.
Shen Mengfei's words shocked all the actors and staff, and they realized at this time that they were not only different from the boss Shen Mengfei in terms of appearance, talent and opportunities, but also their attitude towards work and life.
The assistant director was so ashamed of Shen Mengfei's words that he blushed.
Although his qualifications as a director are older than Shen Mengfei's, his attitude is far from the same.
After this time, when the assistant director faced the actor's performance was slightly inadequate, even if there was a word wrong or the micro-expression was not in place, he would shout "click" and then reshoot.
The director's work attitude determines the work attitude of the entire crew.
As the filming progressed, Shen Mengfei had experience in how to play Wang Nian.
A month later, the film was officially completed.
The reason why it can be completed so quickly is because there are no particularly difficult action scenes in this work itself, and the whole work is mainly literary drama, supplemented by micro-expressions and funny movements.
The film began post-production, and a small circle was also added to it, she
One person with the voices of three characters.
Shen Mengfei dubbed the adult Wangnian by himself.
Ye Wange, Shen Xiangling, Chu Yuhe and others did not participate, but they all participated in the dubbing together.
In mid-December, the post-production of the animated film (Selling Sand in the Peak Year) was completed.
Shen Mengfei decided to set the animated film for release on January 1.
Once the release date is set, the rest is publicity.
Mengwan Entertainment announced the movie layout under its official account, and marked the starring and dubbing, and also wrote the release date in the most obvious place on the movie promotion page.
In addition to the official account for publicity, Shen Mengfei logged in to the Douyin account for a long time, and they planned to broadcast the movie live.
......
The title of the Douyin live broadcast room was revised in advance.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Shen Mengfei opened the live broadcast room.
At this time, there were already nearly 10.26 million viewers waiting in the live broadcast room.
can have so much attention in the live broadcast room in advance, a large part of the reason is that the Douyin platform helped to do the publicity.
"Audience, everybody, evening. I'm Douyin anchor Shen Mengfei, and I believe everyone around me is no stranger, but let me introduce it to you."
"This beautiful lady standing next to me is my girlfriend, Ye Wange."
"Wange, let's say hello to everyone." Shen Mengfei looked at Ye Wange gently.
"Hello everyone, I'm Ah Fei's girlfriend, and my name is Ye Wange."
After speaking, Ye Wange looked at Shen Mengfei with a happy face.
At this time, the sailors in the live broadcast room couldn't sit still, since they watched the movie and fell in love for the first time until dusk, they guessed that Shen Mengfei and Ye Wange were together, but they didn't expect them to be really together.
"The interaction between the two of you is too sweet."
"Someone, there's someone here who abuses animals. What animal? Single dog."
"me and give them fun."
"I'm out of love."
"I'm out of love, too."
"Not only are you out of love, today is simply a day of lovelorn on the whole network."
"Brother Fei, you haven't started a live broadcast for so long, is it specifically for S dog to start a live broadcast today?"
「...」
Seeing the barrage of sailors, Shen Mengfei and Ye Wange felt that this year's sailors were too funny.
"I believe that there are many sailors in the live broadcast room who have watched the movie and have their first love until dusk, in fact, that movie is basically adapted from our experience, that movie is my confession to Wan'er, and it is also the official announcement to the whole network that I and Wan'er are together."
"Today's live broadcast is of course not just about announcing my relationship with Wan'er. We have another important news to tell you that Mengwan Entertainment will have an animated movie to be released in major cinemas on January 1st, and I hope that if possible, everyone can go to the cinema to support it, thank you." Shen Mengfei said.
"Our movie is called Selling Sand in the Prosperous Year, and it is a funny comedy animated film, and the content is very exciting, I hope you must not miss it." Ye Wange said.
"I've already seen the trailer, it's really interesting, and I'll definitely go to the cinema to support it."
"Produced by Mengwan Entertainment, it must be a high-quality product, and it must be supported."
"Support, support."
Friends in the live broadcast room have expressed their support.
At this time, the online audience in Shen Mengfei's live broadcast room reached 50 million+.
