What is the biggest difficulty in the preparation of "Rise to Fame"?

Is it funding? Is it the crew?

It is the contradiction between Zhang Yuanjun and Tian Xiangzhuang.

Zhang Yuanjun respects Mr. Tian very much.

However, "Rise to Fame" is a commercial film, although it is very experimental, but Zhang Yuanjun is counting on this film to make money!

But Mr. Tian doesn't think so.

Or maybe he knows it's a commercial film, but his mind hasn't turned around yet.

He is still using the idea of making a literary film before preparing for "Becoming Famous".

For example, he plans to shoot the whole process with a film camera, saying that it will be more textured.

was so frightened that Zhang Yuanjun explained to him for a long time, saying that the budget was not enough.

"Our shooting cost is 2.3 million, and we can't afford to use film.

"Even if the film in the factory is at a preferential price, we don't dare to use it, and we have to keep the money for post-production and publicity.

"Just use the digital one, and we'll transfer the glue behind the magnet."

Of course, Tian Xiangzhi was not so easily convinced, and still insisted on using film.

Zhang Yuanjun simply said: "If you have the ability to persuade all the crew members not to be paid, and set aside the money to buy film for you, then I will shoot it with film." ”

Zhang Yuanjun explained: "Mr. Tian, if you take the money of the investor, if you spend too much, how can I explain it to others?" ”

Until Zhang Yuanjun left, he failed to convince Tian Zhuangzhuang.

Wang Jinsong acted as a peacemaker, but he was biased towards Zhang Yuanjun, and he persuaded Tian Xiang: "Didn't you say to help the child." ”

"I didn't even ask for a director's salary, isn't this helping him?"

You also have to understand his hardships, it is not easy for him to do this play, he begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother everywhere, and all the private money in the past few years has been thrown in. Don't look at the crew now, everything is going well, do you know how many people outside say that he can't do it? Just wait to see his jokes.

"He saves money to increase the probability of profitability. It doesn't matter if we lose one or two films, this kid is finished. ”

Director Tian Zhuangzhuo, who had never made a crime suspense film or a comedy before, took over "Rise to Fame" and was completely interested in the experimental nature of the film.

The stage style of "Rise to Fame" is very heavy, or rather, this is to move a drama to the big screen.

As soon as Wang Jinsong said this, Tian Xiangxiang was really shaken a little: "Magnetic transfer is magnetic transfer, I will also play with the digital camera." ”

In fact, Tian Xiangzhuang is not stubborn, and his ability to persuade is not because Zhang Yuanjun and Wang Jinsong are superb.

It's Tian Zhuangzhi himself who also has the idea of embracing commercial films.

Seeing the success of Zhang Yimou's "Hero", Chen Kaige's "Wuji" will also be released in this year's Chinese New Year, as the big brother of the fifth generation of directors, he also wants to try commercial films.

However, his reputation is not as big as that of Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, and it is difficult for him to attract investment in blockbuster films.

Of course, he himself doesn't care about what is famous or not, he just wants to try the current popularity.

The drama "Rise to Fame" is very good, although it is not a blockbuster, but it is quite appetizing to him.

It's just that the actors are all raw melons and eggs, but after all, they are all students in school, and he doesn't care anymore, it's just that he will spend some energy to adjust it when the time comes.

After Zhang Yuanjun left the field, he went to the Renyi Theater.

Before he publicly shouted Pu Cunxin in the media, it really played a role.

Pu Cunxin really agreed to talk to the crew, the script had been sent a few days earlier, Pu Cunxin was very satisfied with the role after watching it, and his intention to participate was very strong, and today Zhang Yuanjun went over to fight for it.

He didn't come to the art less, and Zhang Yuanjun often came to watch dramas.

Before entering the door, I looked at the performance information on the bulletin board in the past few days, what a coincidence, there will be Pu Cunxin's "Li Bai" tomorrow.

In the summer vacation, the theater has gradually become more and more popular, although it is not easy to do dramas now, but Renyi, as the top domestic drama, has a good attendance rate.

Tickets for "Li Bai" will be sold out a week earlier tomorrow.

Zhang Yuanjun took a few more glances at the repertoire bulletin board.

"Hey, young master, what are you looking at?" You don't have to turn your head to look, Zhang Yuanjun knows who is speaking when he hears this voice.

"Teacher He." Zhang Yuanjun greeted.

He Bing smiled: "I knew that you were coming, looking for Brother Pu." I also read the script, it's not bad, why don't you ask me to play it. ”

The two walked to the theater together.

choked Zhang Yuanjun to death with one sentence, and he had to say: "After "The Criminal Officer", your worth has skyrocketed, how can I afford to invite you." ”

"I love to hear that." He Bing's face was full of wrinkles when he smiled.

"Will you play "Li Bai" tomorrow?"

"Acting, I'll play He Thirteen, remember to come and see it then."

"I wanted to come, but I didn't buy a ticket." Zhang Yuanjun was wondering if he could get a free ticket.

He Bing couldn't do anything: "If the box office is gone, it's really gone, and I don't have a ticket." Ming'er, you come, I'll take you into the backstage and let you watch it at the entrance of the venue. ”

"Then I've got it." Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile.

"You sit down, Brother Pu should be there soon."

Zhang Yuanjun came to the backstage of Renyi relatively rarely, and he looked slowly at the moment.

Within ten minutes, Zhang Yuanjun finally saw Pu Cunxin, and He Bing was also on the side.

"Hello Mr. Pu, I like your play very much, and my mother likes you too."

Pu Cunxin is very tall and thin, and when he saw Zhang Yuanjun, he first asked: "Did you write the script?" ”

"Write and play."

"You're this year?"

"Twenty full."

"Huo-" He Bing said, "I can write this script at the age of 20, Brother Pu, better than we did then." ”

"It's better than us." Pu Cunxin nodded, agreed with what He Bing said, and continued, "I read the script, Guan Jingnian's role is very colorful." Let me ask one more question, who played Lu Ziye? ”

It can be seen that what Pu Cunxin really wants to play is Lu Ziye.

"Our teacher Wang Jinsong." Zhang Yuanjun explained, "Originally, it was scheduled that Mr. Wang would play Guan Jingnian, but he said that his image was not good, and he couldn't play a middle-aged and elderly handsome guy like Guan Jingnian, so he played Lu Ziye." ”

Pu Cunxin must know Wang Jinsong, and nodded: "Okay, there's no problem on my side, I played the role of Guan Jingnian, you see whether to sign the contract now or later." ”

"Let's sign it later, I'm here today to come and see." Zhang Yuanjun said.

"Okay, I'll show you." Pu Cunxin and He Bing were in front and took Zhang Yuanjun to visit the backstage of Renyi.

Pu Cunxin really didn't have the frame of a vice president, and gave Zhang Yuanjun a junior a detailed introduction to the history of the theater, the classic repertoire of the theater, the furnishings of the theater and so on.

After Pu Cunxin was elected vice president of the arts - despite his own reluctance to be the vice president - the focus of his work shifted from film and television back to the stage.

In the past few years, he has not stopped taking on dramas, but has deliberately reduced his plays.

Therefore, it is not easy for "Rise to Fame" to invite Pu Cunxin.

While visiting the backstage, Zhang Yuanjun also expressed his love for the drama and the stage, and also recited a monologue on the spot.

"Not bad." Of course, in front of the two, Zhang Yuanjun's ability is not enough to see, but he can hear that the basic skills are very solid, and he has been praised by the two, He Bing said, "Or you can take the exam for our theater." ”

Zhang Yuanjun smiled and said: "I really have plans to take the human arts, who doesn't want to enter the human arts." ”

"You kid okay." He Bing said.

That chapter was sealed, and I changed it and tried to release it tomorrow.
