China domestic.

Just when Wu Yuan went to North America to start the official filming of "Interstellar".

In the era of light and shadow in China, the two film projects that are being filmed have also successfully entered the final stage.

"Walking with God" and "Painted Skin 2", the two highlights of the light and shadow era this year, entered the state of starting filming after the Spring Festival in February.

And now it's early May, and these two domestic special effects blockbusters are almost finished.

Beijing, Huairou Film and Television Base.

The last part of the special effects scene of "Walking with God" was filmed intensively in the studio of Huairou Film and Television Base.

As the leading actors, Yu Yi, Duan Yihong, and Huang Bo are in the "deception hell" set up in the studio, facing the green cloth on all sides.

And the actor who played against them was Su Chang, who came to make a cameo appearance to deceive the Hell Hades.

This cameo was also facilitated by Wu Yuan.

Su Chang previously played the Tianshan Tong Grandma in "Dragon Babu", which left a very deep impression on him.

Although the bearded makeup for Su Chang is too ugly, Su Chang relied on his excellent acting skills to perform the weird feeling of Tianshan Tong's grandmother.

It just so happens that the Hades who deceived hell in "Walking with God" is also a "girl" who looks like a child on the outside, but actually rules hell for thousands of years and has a very eccentric personality.

When he was making the script at that time, Wu Yuan felt that this role had to be played by Su Chang in order to play it right.

And Zhang Guorong, who has seen Su Chang's performance in "Dragon Babu", also agrees with Wu Yuan's view and invites Su Chang to make a cameo.

Facts have proved that the vision of the two is really good, Su Chang is simply handy in playing this kind of role, much better than the various three-no TV series she has filmed in the past two years.

"Okay, thank you guys." Zhang Guorong took off the monitoring headphones, clapped his hands with a smile and said, "Let's shoot here today, you can call it a day and put it to dinner." ”

As soon as he heard that the work was over, Su Chang immediately jumped up and ran with the assistant, as if he had something else to do in the afternoon.

The other three men were divided into two small groups.

Huang Bo, an actor who is not a contracted artist in the era of light and shadow, came to Zhang Guorong's side by himself and asked him if there was anything that could be improved in today's shooting.

Yu Yi and Duan Yihong, the contracted actors of the two companies, hooked their shoulders and chatted while walking towards the dressing room.

The two are about the same age, and their experience before joining the era of light and shadow is similar, they are both the kind of young actors who have been fighting because their images are not handsome enough.

After joining the group, the relationship between the two was so good that it didn't work out in a few days.

"Hey, Lao Yu, your "Soul Ferry", I heard from my agent that the second season will start filming in the second half of the year?"

"You are in this business, you have a sequel to a TV series in your hand, maybe there will be a sequel plan for "Walking with God" in the future, and you won't have to worry about running out of filming in the next three or five years."

Duan Yihong's tone was full of envy.

Although after he joined the era of light and shadow, he received much better treatment than when he was in Huayi, but he still has no stable actor to play.

This time, Zhang Guorong took a fancy to him and ordered him to play the leading role in "Walking with God", which can be said to be a matter of great luck, and what the future holds, it has not yet been settled.

Unlike Yu Yi, there is already a successful series of TV series "Soul Ferry" as the leading actor, and the future drama will be very smooth.

"Hey, don't envy me, the "Walking with God" company also wants to make a series of movies, just like Director Wu's "Pirates of the Caribbean", to make a huge underworld universe, maybe it will be linked with "Soul Ferry" in the future."

"You are the first male protagonist in this series, and the future is also very good."

"Huh?" Duan Yihong asked in surprise: "Do you want to link up with "Soul Ferry"?" ”

"Then what do you do, one person plays two roles?"

Yu Yi shook his head: "That's not it, I just heard that the company's screenwriting department, according to the sequel script given by Director Wu, has done a little bit of work, and plans to make our Hades King Tu of "Soul Ferry" make a cameo in "Walking with God 2". ”

"It seems that the underworld and hell are designed to be two parallel reincarnation institutions, and they are still in competition with each other."

"There is a competition between the messengers of hell and the soul ferrymen for the souls of the deceased."

"At that time, there will be another soul ferryman who will make a cameo appearance, but the Zhao Yan team of the No. 444 convenience store will not appear."

"However, in "Soul Ferry 2", it will also mention hell through Zhao Yan's mouth, which can be regarded as a side linkage."

"Listen to my agent, the company is playing a big game of chess."

"Director Wu seems to want to create a film and television universe and make a unified worldview of the Three Realms, the underworld, the human world and the earth immortal world."

"In the future, there will be many movies and TV series that will be filmed in this unified context."

"Like 'Soul Ferry' and 'Walking with God' tell the story of the underworld, hell and the human world."

"The Painted Skin series is a story that happened in the history of the human world."

"In the future, it seems that there will be a special story about the fairy world, and then use a main line to connect different film and television dramas."

"Like in "Soul Ferry2", I will make some layouts in advance, and it is written in the script I got that Zhao Yan was a cultivator in the human world before he became a soul ferryman, and he still practiced Buddhism."

"And his Dao system comes from the Earth Immortal Realm."

Duan Yihong was a little speechless, Yu Yi said this set, to be honest, he didn't understand it too much.

After all, in domestic film and television dramas, there is no concept of film and television universe and movie universe.

Even Hollywood, before the Marvel Cinematic Universe was formed, did not have this concept.

What Yu Yi said, to Duan Yihong's ears, was almost like listening to the book of heaven.

What is the Three Realms film and television universe, what connects different TV series and movies together, and makes a unified world view and background, it sounds too "fantasy".

"Why did you even get involved with "Painted Skin"?" He said with some confusion.

"yes." Yu Yi nodded as a matter of course: "The demons and demon hunters in "Painted Skin" will also improve the background story in the TV series of "Soul Ferry". ”

"There was originally a concept of monsters in "Soul Ferry", and it only needed to introduce a group of demon hunters in the Han Dynasty, but later it became more and more difficult to cultivate in the world, and the demon hunters became extinct."

"Only Kunlun, which connects the human world and the fairy world, still has some inheritance of demon hunters."

If there is a person who is the same as Wu Yuan and also has future memories, he will immediately understand Yu Yi's meaning.

This is to shoot "Soul Ferry" as "S.H.I.E.L.D".

The "S.H.I.E.L.D." TV series is specifically used to improve some backgrounds in the Marvel cinematic universe that are not suitable or necessary to be put into the movie to complete the story.

And "Soul Ferry" will also be an important part of the next stage of building its own film and television universe in the era of light and shadow, and as a lubricant, it will connect different movie IPs in the era of light and shadow to each other and create a unified universe.

It's a pity that Duan Yihong is not a later generation, and he doesn't understand Marvel's huge cinematic universe built around superheroes.

He just smashed his mouth unconsciously, and sighed: "Although I didn't understand it too much, I felt very powerful." ”

"In other words, the company will have a lot of movies and TV series to shoot in the next few years, right?"

"It doesn't matter what the film and television universe is not cosmic, it's a good thing to have filming!"
