Chapter 506: It's Finished
"Fenghua Video is listed in a beautiful country, and Li Shengyao is worth 40 billion."
"The first video company in the mainland was listed in a beautiful country, and the share price of Fenghua Video soared 40 times."
"The market value of Fenghua Video has risen sharply, and it will usher in a wave of new dramas."
"Let the Bullets Fly" was released, with a total box office of more than 600 million, and Jiang Wen stood to make money."
"The mainland film market has exceeded 10 billion yuan, becoming the third largest film market in the world."
"1937" was officially filmed, and Brother Xiao Ming proudly said that the movie would shock the world."
"Lao Mouzi's "1937" said that Director Li had a pioneering spirit."
"Let the Bullets Fly" is just the beginning, Ge You also has "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2", "Zhao's Orphan", he will dominate this year's Chinese New Year file."
……
Entering the end of November, the Chinese New Year is coming, and the mainland film market is like a long-irrigated rice field, and the harvest season has arrived in the blink of an eye.
"Let the Bullets Fly" was the first to be released, and this movie immediately drove the entire film market, and the box office rose gradually, surpassing "Sugar Mountain Earthquake", and it also brought a lot of online golden sentences.
In addition to "Let the Bullets Fly", the biggest news is that Fenghua Video was listed in a beautiful country, and the stock price increased forty times on the first day, which can be said to have shocked many people's eyes.
You must know that Huayi was listed in Shenzhen, although it also increased more than 30 times on the first day, the total stock price on the first day was about 6 billion yuan.
The total stock price of Fenghua Video on the first day was 9 billion US dollars, which was simply beating Huayi.
Some mainland film and television companies originally wanted to be listed in Shenzhen, Shanghai, and Hong Kong Island, but when they saw Fenghua Video making extra money and making so much money, they were all moved and planned to be released in a beautiful country.
There are also many companies that contact Li Shengyao, hoping that Director Li will help them stand on the platform, and promise to give dry shares.
Li Shengyao did not agree.
If it were any other time, he would have liked to do such a thing, but now he really doesn't have time, "1937" is being filmed, and he can't leave.
At eight o'clock in the morning, it was overcast and clouds obscured the sun.
The cold wind blew very loudly, and the sound of the winter horn drowned out the other sounds.
Li Shengyao got out of the car with a sigh.
He reviewed the details of the shoot with a couple of assistant directors last night, and went to bed at almost twelve o'clock.
As a result, he thought about it day and dreamed at night, he had a long dream last night, in which he was filming "1937", it didn't seem to be going well, he lost his temper.
The quality of sleep has decreased a lot, and Li Shengyao yawns when he wakes up in the morning.
"What are you eating, I told you, you must be careful, see for yourself, you can't do such a simple thing, what else can you do?"
Several assistant directors arrived on the set earlier than Lee Shengyao, and one of the assistant directors was cursing.
The person who was scolded was a girl, with long hair and a shawl, who looked in good shape, with her head down, and was honestly trained.
Lee Shengyao did not go over to convince him, he ignored the matter, and then entered the set, talked with the assistant director, cinematographer, and lighting, and discussed today's shooting requirements.
Not long after, Brother Xiao Ming and Zhang Yi came over.
The weather was cold, and both of them were wearing more, and Brother Xiao Ming's nose was a little red, and he looked like he had a cold.
Li Shengyao walked over, "How is it, is your body okay?" ”
"No problem, director, I'm fine, just a little Han."
Most of the scenes in "1937" are not easy to film, especially the two actors, who are very tired.
Because they are all long shots, many plots require two people to run or dodge while performing.
Imagine running for five or six minutes straight, then taking a break for ten minutes, and running continuously.
Although it was possible to rest, the actors were still tired.
Tired and cold, the actors are prone to illness.
Li Shengyao has always been very concerned about the bodies of Brother Xiao Ming and Zhang Yi, and he often calls for two people to drink more water, and asks people to prepare ginger soup, which they drink in the morning and afternoon.
Since Brother Xiao Ming said that there is no problem.
Li Shengyao didn't say anything, he nodded, then waved his hand, and asked the assistant directors to pay attention to the state of Brother Xiao Ming and Zhang Yi, and then arrange the shooting.
Now the sky is overcast, which is just right for the crew to shoot.
However, it was probably because the weather was cold, and then both the actors and the field workers were a little distracted, and the next shooting was continuous.
Either the actor was suddenly stunned, or the field worker made some mess.
Li Shengyao sat behind the director's monitor, his face gradually becoming more serious.
I probably felt that Director Li was in a bad mood, everyone was much more focused, and after eleven o'clock, the situation on the set was much better.
When it was almost twelve o'clock, Li Shengyao picked up the microphone.
"This morning, we were a little slow to get into the state and wasted a lot of time, and I hope everyone will be more serious and efficient in the afternoon."
He then announced that he would leave work and let the big guy go to lunch.
Lee Shengyao had just received lunch and was sitting in the director's lounge to eat.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
The thunder sounded, the sky was darker, the wind was stronger, and five minutes later, the rain crackled and fell.
The December rain was very cold, and the people who had been eating outside entered the house, but no one was standing under the eaves.
Li Shengyao shook his head helplessly, it seems that he can't shoot in the afternoon.
He then instructed the assistant director to let the actors rest and come back tomorrow.
Two hours later, most of the actors and crew left.
After Li Shengyao finished eating, he waited for the last shift of field workers to leave the set with them in a bus.
"Director, it's okay."
Li Shengyao nodded, then got into the car with an umbrella, and was about to leave when he caught a glimpse of a girl standing under the eaves, looking left and right, shivering.
In the heavy rain, he couldn't see the girl's appearance clearly.
But looking at the girl's figure, it seems to be a girl who scolded the counselor in the morning.
He patted the front worker on the shoulder, "There's another girl there, tell her to go along." ”
A moment later, the girl got into the car, still with her head down.
Li Shengyao didn't care, he closed his eyes, and then leaned back in his seat to sleep.
He was still a little sleepy.
The weather was cold, and although he didn't need to perform, he still felt tired.
About half an hour later, they came to the hotel where the crew rested.
Li Shengyao, as well as Brother Xiao Ming, Zhang Yi, and important members of the film crew, as well as some field workers who joined Fenghua Film and Television Company, all live here.
Li Shengyao was sleeping when he woke up an assistant director.
At this time, the vast majority of people in the car got out of the car.
Li Shengyao stretched, and then got out of the car.
It was still raining outside, and the slanting wind with freezing rain fell on the body, and it was very cold.
Li Shengyao found that the girl who was standing under the eaves before had already gotten out of the car at this time, standing at the door of the hotel, looking out in a daze.
He then realized that the girl was not supposed to be staying in a hotel, and he called someone to get into the car, and they didn't necessarily stop by.
"Are you staying at this hotel?"
Zhang Jiao turned her head, revealing a good-looking face, she had a royal sister face, looking very mature and full of aggression.
"I don't live here."
Sure enough, I was mistaken.
Li Shengyao noticed that Zhang Jiao was a little familiar, and he guessed that Zhang Jiao should be an actress he had seen in his previous life.
"I'm sorry, I was careless."
Zhang Jiao immediately shook her head, "It's okay, I'll take the bus back later, and I'll be there in a few stops." ”
"You ......"
Li Shengyao thought for a while, "You eat first, everyone in our crew can eat here, the food here is better than on the set, after eating, the rain is lighter, and then take an umbrella back." ”
"This ......"
Zhang Jiao was moved in her heart, she is from the Northeast, graduated from high school and went to school in the island country, returned to China in 09, and then filmed an advertisement, which can be regarded as entering the circle.
However, although she joined a film and television company, she didn't have any resources, she wanted to mix in the entertainment industry, so she wanted to go to the set to be a group performer, or a handyman.
It just so happened that the "1937" crew recruited group actors and handymen, and she became a field worker in the "1937" crew.
It's not easy to mix on the set, and she scolded the assistant director in the morning.
She's beautiful, but there's no plus here, and there's mostly schadenfreude, and no one speaks for her.
Li Shengyao is now a wealthy man worth 40 billion, a big director, a big capitalist, and the top figure in the entertainment industry.
She didn't expect Director Li to be so easy to talk to.
"So be it."
Li Shengyao didn't say much, nodded, and left.
Zhang Jiao looked at Director Li's tall back and felt warm.
……
The impact of the weather was even greater than Lee Shengyao had imagined, and after mid-December, the weather was colder on Ningbo's side, and in this case, the cast workers were more tired and more likely to get sick.
However, for the sake of this movie, the big guys have tried hard to persevere, but after a long time, they still can't stand it.
2010 has passed, and 2011 has arrived, and the weather is still very cold.
On January 15th, Zhang Yi caught a cold, saying that it was a viral infection, coughing constantly, and there was no way to film.
Fortunately, the role of Zhang Yi is not online all the time, and there is still one-third of the scene, and the male number two is no longer there.
Therefore, Li Shengyao temporarily skipped Zhang Yi's scene and filmed the scene dominated by the male lead.
However, Brother Xiao Ming did not hold out for too long, on the morning of January 20, Li Shengyao received a call from Brother Xiao Ming's assistant, saying that Brother Xiao Ming had a cold, a sore throat, and some fever, and could not work.
Brother Xiao Ming is the male protagonist of "1937", the whole process is online, and all of them are long shots, and there is no way to use a stand-in.
Brother Xiao Ming was sick, and the crew had to stop.
Zhang Yi hasn't recovered yet, but Brother Xiao Ming is sick.
When several crew members learned the news, they all looked worried.
They knew that Lee Shengyao's plan was to produce "1937" by May 2011, so that the film could compete at the Cannes Film Festival.
Now the actors of the second male number and the first male number are sick, and they can only stop.
Li Shengyao saw the sad faces of several assistant directors, and he was also a little irritable in his heart, but he knew very well that now was not the time to lose his temper and provide negative emotions.
The more difficult it is, the more optimistic they become.
He thought for a while, and then said: "Spread the news, except for Brother Xiao Ming and Zhang Yi, everyone else will continue to go to the film and television city, and we will rehearse today."
The crew of "1937" rehearsed for five months, and the big guys are familiar with their roles, even if there is no male number one or male number two, others can still play it.
Li Shengyao paused for a moment, and then said: "For lunch and dinner, everyone adds a braised egg and a chicken leg."
"The director is heroic."
The assistant director immediately followed.
Li Shengyao smiled, "Post the notice, rehearse on the 20th, 21st, and 22nd for three days, have a holiday on the 23rd, and come back to work on the 9th of next month." ”
February 1 is the Lunar New Year.
Li Shengyao's original plan was to have a holiday on the 26th, but Brother Xiao Ming and Zhang Yi were sick, and they couldn't start work without these two people.
It's better to have an early holiday and let the big guy have a good rest.
Several assistant directors were stunned, "Director, Zhang Yi's side should be fine in two days, don't you rush for a few days?" ”
"If you don't rush it, let's have a holiday long ago, and we'll talk about it after the New Year."
Li Shengyao continued: "Arrange for someone to send a fruit basket to Brother Xiao Ming and offer condolences."
After announcing various matters, Li Shengyao then went to work.
I heard that there will be a holiday in three days, and the actors and workers are very excited, and many people cheer and shout.
Lee Shengyao turned on the computer and gave Rupert a message to Rupert who was far away in the United Kingdom. Gregerson emailed Rupert about the progress of the arrangement.
At this time, Rupert did not sleep at about one o'clock in the morning, and he quickly replied to Li Shengyao's message.
"Li, I've completed the task here, I've completed three songs, as well as five tunes, I'm sure you'll be satisfied."
Li Shengyao received Rupert's reply, and his hanging heart relaxed slightly.
On the set of filming, due to environmental issues, there will inevitably be delays.
Thankfully, there are no problems with the soundtrack.
As long as they finish shooting as soon as possible and the soundtrack is ready, post-production will be much faster.
……
In the following New Year's Festival, Li Shengyao took Chen Hao back to his hometown.
There is good news this year, after years of sowing, Li Dadao finally blossomed and bore fruit, Chen Hao, Dong Xuan, and Yan Danchen were all pregnant, and his four female companions, only Li Xiaoran was not recruited.
Li Xiaoran used to want children very much, but she loved to play after all, either playing mahjong or playing electric, and then she didn't want it anymore.
Li Shengyao doesn't care, anyway, he is in good health, and if Li Xiaoran wants, the bullet can be loaded at any time.
After all, it is a modern society, and it is impossible not to ignore social influences.
Li Shengyao did not take Yan Danchen and Dong Xuan back to his hometown, but took Chen Hao back to announce the good news to the old people in the family.
Li Shengyao's parents were very happy when they heard that Chen Hao was pregnant, and immediately bought some gold and silver jewelry for Chen Hao, which can be regarded as recognizing this daughter-in-law.
……
Lee Shengyao stayed in his hometown for about two weeks, and then hurried to Ningbo, where the crew immediately prepared to continue filming "1937".
On February 7, 2011, most of the actors and crew rushed to Ningbo, and Xiao Mingge and Zhang Yi came over.
After almost 20 days of recuperation, the two of them were much better.
On February 8, Li Shengyao gave red envelopes to the field workers and actors who rushed over.
On February 9, the crew of "1937" officially started work and continued filming.
In the following time, Li Shengyao was lucky, the weather in Ningbo was slightly warmer, and it was mainly cloudy, which was suitable for the crew to shoot.
In the later shooting, Brother Xiao Ming and Zhang Yi did not have regeneration.
They had been rehearsing for almost five months, and they were familiar with all the scenes.
As long as the weather is right, they can move very quickly, and in such cases, they can move quickly.
At 10 a.m. on February 28, 2011, all the actors and workers of the "1937" crew gathered together, and Li Shengyao stood in the center of the crowd.
"'1937' is finished."
In the warm cheers, Li Shengyao handed out red envelopes to everyone, and at the same time said some good words.
Five months of rehearsals, three months of filming, and half a month off for a total of eight and a half months.
The set of "1937" is finally over.
Bright red envelopes, cheerful smiles, fragrant spring breezes, and nice sycophants.
Director Li's hanging heart relaxed slightly, and finally completed the on-set shooting before the end of March, and the next two months should be enough for post-production, and they can catch up with the Cannes Film Festival.
