Chapter 253: Thousands of Miles to Send Warmth

"Heartless Mage" has become popular on the Internet, this drama not only has a good-looking plot, but also has a strong suspense color difference; The characters of several protagonists are also full and very likable.

At the same time, the special effects part is also very good, especially not long ago, there happened to be a particularly popular online drama "Tomb Robbery Notes" for comparison, which is even more excellent and sincere.

"Tomb Robbery Notes" is the real big IP, and there are also big-name stars in the cast, and the male protagonists are starred by Li Hefeng and Yang Yang.

But the record-breaking number of broadcasts has brought a lot of complaints and bad reviews; Not only were the special effects sprayed, but the plot was also complained that it had been changed beyond recognition····· "Heartless Mage" is the opposite result, not only the special effects are praised, but the current score on Douban sauce is also as high as 8.9 points, which can be described as the result of both popularity and word-of-mouth.

"It's a very good drama, both the characters and the plot are very attractive. I haven't watched the original.,But this kind of feeling is still quite novel.,I've watched 6 episodes so far.,It feels very good.。 My favorite character is Yue Qiluo, who is very cute and beautiful. Li County is in good shape, and he has become more and more flavorful in recent years. ”

"A very conscientious web drama, if "Tomb Robbery Notes" can be rated as one star, this must be a ten-star web drama."

"The TV series is very good, basically following the original, and the theme song "On the Shore of Lake Belga" is also good. But what's interesting is that the male and female supporting roles make me feel better, and I also like Yue Qiluo to spend more than the crescent moon······"

"'I've been waiting for a long time to finally wait for today, and I've dreamed for a long time to finally make my dream come true!' I'm sorry, I can't help but sing it - can I say that this is the work I've been waiting for the longest time, related to Li Jingkun? I've been a fan of his books since I read this book in junior high school! I really liked this one at the time, and every character in it also liked it, Crescent Moon, Yue Qiluo, Bai Liuli, etc. Later, when I saw Li Jingkun start making movies, and saw that he began to put some stories on TV or movie theaters, I have been urging and hoping that he can make "Heartless Mage" as soon as possible. It turned out to be many, many years! Fortunately, after going around and around, "Heartless Mage" is finally online! I've just updated 6 episodes so far, and I've only watched 6 episodes, but I really want to shout: It's so good! It's so well photographed! It's really the one I have in mind! Although many places are a little different from the original, I have to say that the quality of this drama is currently very good for me! The actors' acting skills are particularly natural, and the stunt scenes are all conscientious! The plot is also completely online! I'm so excited and so happy! Five-star recommendation! ”······ The rating of "Heartless Mage" is very high, and several actors have gained a lot of exposure because of this play.

Needless to say, Li County has been famous for several years. At present, there are several other actors who are more profitable, such as Bai Lu who plays the crescent moon, Chen Yao who plays Yue Qiluo, and supporting roles such as Zhang Ruoyun and Wang Yanlin.

And I really didn't mean to step on "Tomb Robbery Notes", these were spontaneously evaluated by netizens; It's really because these two dramas are the latest works to be launched this year, and they are both so popular and have a lot of fans, so it's hard not to be compared.

It's really a bit uneasy to think about it, the charging model that the other party has just explored is used by them, and after getting great benefits, they have to take it and step on it to set off their own high-quality ············ After Li Jingkun stayed in New York for more than half a month, Liu Tianxian said that he was going to come over to visit the class.

Before that, they had occasional contact, but it was more difficult to video chat because they had to take care of each other's jet lag and also see if the other person was available at this time.

Of course, the main thing is to see if Li Jingkun is free, because his time is relatively tight, and there are a lot of night scenes in this movie, so the free time is uncertain.

Sometimes the night scene is filmed too late, and the next day naturally has to sleep a little later, and the crew has to start work later.

If the night play ends early, then tomorrow there may be more daytime plays.

"Recently, "Heartless Mage" has been very popular, the popularity is very high, and the reputation is also very good, and I am also chasing dramas."

"Really? Have you opened a membership? ""Heartless Mage" has been on the air for two weeks, and the popularity is really high, it can be said that it exploded on the day of the premiere; Although the number of broadcasts on the first day failed to break 100 million and failed to reach the height of "Notes on Tomb Robbery", it also got 63.2 million views, becoming the No. 1 online drama in the same period!

Then it continued to rise, and at the same time, it also won the championship of many lists such as the Thousand Degree TV Drama Billboard, the Neck Hot Topic List, and the Neck 24-hour Hot Search List.

"It's opened, I opened it on the first day, and I felt pretty cool at the time, and I was able to watch 5 episodes before others, hahaha." Liu Tianxian's somewhat smug voice came over there, and Li Jingkun was a little speechless.

The website really grasps the psychology of the crowd to the death, and even a big star like Liu Tianxian can't escape this curse.

"Why don't you find your boyfriend, I can't ask someone from the company to give you all the episodes?"

"Huh? Is that okay? Won't it be a breach of contract or something? ”

"Yes."

“·····” This time it was Liu Tianxian's turn to be a little speechless, glaring at him with eyes on the other side of the screen.

In fact, if you just show it to Liu Tianxian, of course there is no problem. But it's just a small thing, and while it's really fascinating, it doesn't really have to be this way, so it's just a joke and a chat.

"I like the role of Yue Qiluo so much, Chen Yao played it well, really beautiful and cute-why didn't you recommend it to me before!" There are many characters in "Heartless Mage" that are very attractive, the first one is naturally the male protagonist Wuxin, followed by the heroine Crescent Moon and the supporting actor Gu Xuanwu, but what many people didn't expect was that when Yue Qiluo appeared in the third episode, he immediately attracted most of the attention.

Many fans who originally liked the crescent moon soon changed their minds and became Yue Qiluo's diehards······ It's outrageous, Yue Qiluo can appear as a villain here!

So why is she so likeable? The first is because she is very delicate, loli, and cute; Normal people must like people with good looks.

The second is that her character is very likable, her personality is distinct and full, and Chen Yao also plays her flesh and blood.

A cute-looking Lori, but inside she is a cold and ruthless little demon girl, this contrast will also have a very seductive effect.

And her emotional drama is also very worrying, and she unintentionally rejected her several times, but another character, Zhang Xianzong, likes her very much, but she has no feelings for him.

The emotional drama between the two of them is also very attractive, and even the popularity overshadows the emotional drama between Wuxin and the crescent moon.

And a pair of CPs who have attracted so much attention have also been crowned

The title of "disgusting couple". ·····

"Don't say it, this role is really suitable for you. All of them are just as beautiful, and their faces are small. ”

"Huh?" Liu Tianxian was a little surprised, and also had a regretful expression - in fact, she was just a coquettish just now, but she didn't expect to get this answer.

"But this character is only the second female in the first part, if you mention it to you at the beginning, not only will you hesitate, but your mother may also refuse. And if you're playing it, a lot of the other roles may have to change actors. "If she comes to participate, many actors have to be replaced by more famous actors, otherwise they won't be able to match.

But now that the TV series has been filmed and is on the air, it's just idle talk to say it now, so the topic will end after a few words.

Later, Liu Tianxian mentioned the 65th anniversary celebration of the founding of Jingying School and asked him if he would like to participate then.

She was sure to go and have to go, because she didn't have anything important to do then.

"I should be able to catch up, if the shooting goes well, it will be finished a day or two before the school anniversary, and I can rush back then." The 65th anniversary party of Jingying School was held on October 17, and it is almost a month away; If the filming goes smoothly and there are no major delays, according to the schedule, it can be completed on the 15th, and you can go back on the same day when you catch up, and you can fly back on the 16th.

······ On September 25th, the production time was 18 months, produced by Baixi Media, directed and starred by Yu Zheng, and Liu Tianxian's cameo movie "Hong Kong" finally landed in major theaters across the country and met everyone.

At the premiere, Li Jingkun also hurried back and participated in the event with Liu Tianxian, Ning Hao, Huang Bo and others.

In addition to them, Qiao Shan, Du Jun, Tao Hong, Ge Minhui and other main creators all appeared. The guests also include Li Shaohong, Zhang Yibai, Chen Jianbin, Jiang Qinqin, Xia Yu, Yuan Quan, etc.

The media commented: "Dozens of first-line stars came to the scene to promote "Hong Kong", the red carpet was comparable to the lineup of international A-level film festivals, and "Hong Kong", which is known as a national comedy, has attracted self-evident attention. A few days later, the movie began to be released, and the box office was really exaggerated, with a score of more than 200 million on the first day, surpassing the 173 million first-day box office record of Chinese films created by "Monster Hunt", and becoming the new record holder of the first-day box office of Chinese films!

and also broke 12 records such as the single-day box office record of Chinese films, the first-day box office record of 2D movies, and the first-day number of first-day records of Chinese-language summer movies.

7 days later, the total box office of "Hong Kong Embarrassment" officially exceeded 1 billion, once again surpassing the record of "Monster Hunt" taking 1 billion in 9 days, becoming the fastest domestic film to get 1 billion box office!

On September 30, another movie was also quietly released. But unlike "Hong Kong", it only got more than 30 million on the first day.

After all, the main creative lineup cannot be compared with "Hong Kong", and it is already good to have this box office.

Unexpectedly, the development of things is more and more unexpected to everyone, the box office trend of this movie has achieved a self-reversal, and the box office in the next few days is even higher than the day of its first release!

A 21 million low-budget comedy, like many other blockbusters, broke through the 1 billion mark at the box office after 15 days of release, becoming a member of the 1 billion box office club!

And the name of the movie is called "Charlotte's Troubles"!····· A commercial action movie, the male protagonist is very important, and the villain's is also very important.

The identity of the villain is also very important. In the original time and space, the villain of "Little People" was set up as a fighting nation, and the fighting nation was a gangster in the United States.

This is the old Omi tradition, and it is often black in various movies or TV; After all, most of the other ethnic groups are also much darker, and there is no more suitable candidate than Lao Maozi.

However, what is a little puzzling is that the original director of this movie is also a member of the fighting nation······ In short, the original version is such a setting, but Li Jingkun is a little unsuitable for this.

So some modifications were made in this place as well. At present, this is the work he has revised the most since he took it from the original.

But don't worry, because there are many villains who are suitable for him, and there are also many suitable for him to set up.

For example, notebooks, sticks, etc., they also have a lot of gangsters abroad. It's really not okay to refer to the villains of other works, such as Martin Scorsese or Frances Ford Coppola's films.

It's just that it was determined from the beginning that Omi actors were to be used, and if the fighting nation was not suitable, the local gangster of the United States could only be selected - there are actually many factions of the local gangsters, and it is not difficult to make a choice.

And the role of the first villain, that is, the gang boss, is more important, so they choose a relatively famous supporting actor.

Although it is a low-budget action movie, what should not be saved is still not saved; Besides, the salary for supporting roles on Ommi's side is actually not particularly expensive.

It's all within reason. Don't always be deceived by some press releases, say at every turn that this actor is paid 20 million meters of knife, that 2500 meters of knife, etc.; Some are indeed true, but some are also watery, which is actually the same as the routine on Huaguo's side.

And the film and television company is also very sophisticated, they can give you a high salary, but there are many additional conditions to get this salary, such as how much box office you have to reach to get so much; At the same time, the same is true for sharing, with a lot of additional conditions.

Don't take film and television companies for fools, even if an actor is famous, in the eyes of many large companies, it is just a tool to make money······ If they can't get it, they definitely won't spend this unjust money; will even make fake accounts to tell you that this box office hit movie is actually losing money······ For example, consider a movie by Little Magician.

In Haolaiwu, the more famous supporting roles generally have a salary of about three or four hundred thousand meters, and Steve Buscemy, who they cooperated with this time, is in this price range.

Steve Buscemy, whose representative works include "Reservoir Dogs", "Prison in the Air", etc., has played the villain for many years, and he also has a certain reputation in the circle, so it is also suitable to come over and partner Brother Long.

He has been in the industry for many years and has won many awards, so there is nothing to question in terms of professional ability.

That kind of fierce and cold-blooded temperament, at first glance, it is easy to suspect that he is acting in his true colors, so he runs in with the script very quickly, and he enters the play very quickly - this is just a hot-tempered and ruthless gangster boss, much simpler than some of the villains he played before, so there are not many difficult ones.

This movie is completely for the sake of setting off the male protagonist, and you don't need to analyze your heart too much as the villain, just show your fierce and ruthless character characteristics.

Then when they were filming the second fight scene with a large proportion, Liu Tianxian also arrived at the filming site.

This time, in addition to visiting the class normally, she also came with the current research and study - it's true, no joke, and it's not just to come thousands of miles to send warmth.

I really came with the purpose of learning. Because the next movie plan given by Li Jingkun is also an action movie in this realistic style.

This is completely different from the kind of martial arts fight movies she has made in the past, so now that she has this opportunity, of course she has to visit it in advance.

"Brother Long."

"The immortals are coming to visit the class? Did you just arrive today? ”

"No, I arrived last night, I rested for a day, and I came here due to jet lag." After filming a scene, Brother Long took the staff's towel and walked towards the camera while wiping his sweat, but before he got closer, the woman next to Li Jingkun greeted him first.

He looked at it fixedly, and then realized that it was Liu Tianxian.

"It's rare to have a late dinner and eat supper together."

"Okay, you can arrange it. I'm an idler. It wasn't time to call it a day, so they simply said hello.

······ The action scene here takes place in the hero's house, what does this mean?

It means saving money. The first fight was on the bus, and the second big fight was in the house, which was so cost-effective.

That's why we have been emphasizing low and medium cost, because there are really not many places with big scenes, and there are no special effects.

The most expensive is actually Brother Long's salary, plus the salaries of all actors. Renting a house, a bus, and some other places, etc., of course, also costs money, but certainly no one is expensive.

Most of the time, the biggest cost of filming is the labor cost. Salary, food, accommodation, insurance, etc.

······ There are a lot of night scenes in the crew, and there will be a lot of people who go to supper at night. As a global metropolis, New York is also a city that never sleeps, so of course there are plenty of good things to eat at night.

And there are a lot of Chinese-style skewers and the like. However, Li Jingkun himself rarely eats barbecue, and he doesn't dare to eat too heavy for supper.

In addition, I am too lazy to run around, and sometimes I follow the local customs and eat some Western food - because it is more convenient and time-saving, whether it is a burger or a pizza, it is basically done.

But today Liu Tianxian came, they still found a more upscale and spacious place, and then more than a dozen people sat down to eat together.

"The immortals won't be here to check the gang, right?" Of course, there are more than a dozen people in the crew, but the Omi staff basically didn't come, and only a few of the other groups came, some didn't want to eat, some wanted to go back early to rest, and some had other programs by themselves.

So in the end came these guys. They were divided into four or five groups, and after eating for a while, Brother Long said this jokingly.

Liu Tianxian ate very slowly, and he didn't eat much: "No, I mainly came to learn from you." Brother Long said: "Ah Kun is very well-behaved, there is basically no nightlife, and it is usually difficult to find him out for supper." Here, I think he's basically working except for work. Liu Tianxian looked at Li Jingkun with a smile, but Li Jingkun said, "It's not that exaggerated, how long have we been here?" It's not even a month, right? Brother Long immediately looked at Liu Tianxian: "That! See no? I've been here for more than 20 days, and I still haven't been here for long? How long will it take? ”

“······” Li Jingkun was a little speechless, but Liu Tianxian covered his mouth and laughed there. She understands Brother Long's thoughts very well, because her boyfriend is sometimes busy with one thing and does not go out for a long time.

I'd rather stay at home or in the office until I've got the important things done. In fact, this is also due to personality and habits, since the filming of the first movie, Li Jingkun has rarely been distracted to do other things during the filming.

He hopes that his actors will not be playing, so of course he will also ask himself to concentrate during filming.

Don't mess around from time to time. Except for sometimes taking a day or two off to attend some activities, there is basically nothing else that will interrupt his shooting plan.

And he stayed in the hotel after finishing work, he didn't really work every time, occasionally played with his mobile phone and played games, and had to video chat with Liu Tianxian from time to time, etc., it was really impossible to work hard all the time - didn't your brother Long just persuade Quan Zhilong to be self-disciplined and maintain a good image as an artist, and he was surrounded by women in the next step?

It must also be necessary to rest and relax occasionally, a combination of work and rest!
