Chapter 205: "Painted Skin" comes to the door

The crew of "Love Has an Afterlife" restarted after a one-and-a-half-month shutdown, but the commendable thing is that except for some people who had signed contracts elsewhere and had to leave temporarily, 90% of the crew returned to Yu Feihong and chose to continue filming the film.

At noon on the 26th, Yu Feihong paid out of his own pocket and invited the whole group to eat an authentic Yunnan mushroom hot pot as a start-up banquet.

"Words of thanks are superfluous, and I really appreciate the trust you have placed in me." Yu Feihong was so in love that she almost cried at the scene, but fortunately, the assistant director grabbed her.

The crew has been adjusted for two days in Yunnan, and early in the morning of the 28th, on a sunny day, the crew officially started!

After the restart, the crew worked very smoothly and quickly.

Yu Feihong is still young, and filming still doesn't care about the cost, but this time it has become easier to speak, because of the downtime for a month and a half, the loss is too great, and Zhang Yuanjun has already given a notice to the crew, on September 20, Zhang Yuanjun must leave the group to participate in the premiere and pre-publicity of "Animal World", and on the 29th, "Animal World" was officially released, and Zhang Yuanjun had to spend nearly 20 days in the pre- and post-publicity. After that, Zhang Yuanjun was going to start a national tour of "Camel Xiangzi" with the troupe, and he couldn't give up.

Therefore, Yu Feihong must finish "Love Has an Afterlife" before September 20th, otherwise she will not be able to adjust Zhang Yuanjun's schedule.

Yu Feihong and the crew were trying to find a way to speed up the filming progress, but Zhang Laosan was still reminiscing about the mushroom hot pot he had eaten before, and said to his eldest brother Yao Lu in the play:

"It tastes so good. It's not the first time I've eaten mushrooms in Yunnan Province, so how do I feel that this time it's particularly delicious. ”

Yao Lu guessed: "In the past, we ate it in other places, no matter how authentic it is, it is not as good as eating it locally in Yunnan Province now, even the salt and monosodium glutamate are from Yunnan Province, it must be delicious." ”

"That's right, I'll try other fungi again tomorrow, it's the season now, and this meal really hooked out my gluttony." Zhang Yuanjun said.

"It's on." shouted on the set.

Restarted, the efficiency has indeed improved a lot, and a month after the start-up, the crew finished from Gaoligong Mountain and went to Shangri-La.

The completion of Gaoligong Mountain means that the scenes of the main scenes of "Love Has an Afterlife" and most of the action scenes have been filmed.

The crew will not stay in Shangri-La for more than two weeks, and the crew will mainly shoot some scenes of galloping horses to highlight a sense of beauty.

When he came to Shangri-La, there were still two days before the official start-up, and Zhang Yuanjun went out to eat mushrooms again.

A colleague from the crew reminded him: "You take it easy, this thing is not good and poisonous." ”

"Don't worry, I'm all cooked and eaten." Zhang Yuanjun felt that he was sure.

The next day, Zhang Yuanjun didn't leave the crew hotel to wander around, and today the crew had an appointment, and he got the scene as the actor.

Ren Zhonglun, president of Shanghai Film Group, will come to the crew to visit the class.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that Ren Zhonglun is here to visit Zhang Yuanjun, and Zhang Yuanjun and Shangying's "Animal World" is about to be released, so I usually want to come and see it.

But I just don't know why the big boss came in person, which is also too important.

Zhang Yuanjun thought so in his heart.

Just change the producer to Shangri-La and Zhang Yuanjun to say a few words, and the big boss of the group is a bit too much.

Ren Zhonglun arrived at the crew at 3 p.m. Yu Feihong and other crew creators exchanged pleasantries with him, took a look at the crew, and left time to Zhang Yuanjun.

The two didn't go indoors, just sat and chatted in the tent set up by the crew outside.

Ren Zhonglun didn't believe much in Yu Feihong's directing ability, and the suspension of "Love Has an Afterlife" became a joke in the circle, and he doubted that Yu Feihong could finish and release Zhang Yuanjun as scheduled.

"Don't worry about this, I will definitely be able to come out of the crew on the 20th." Zhang Yuanjun packed the ticket.

Ren Zhonglun attaches great importance to "Animal World": "I have already watched the finished film, and I don't think it's a problem to make him 100 million at the box office." ”

Zhang Yuanjun really didn't have time to watch the finished film, and said with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Ren, don't look at me young and bluff me." ”

"Why am I lying to you, when the group watched the film, everyone thought that it could be sold for money, mainly because we had never seen this form in the mainland. The audience picture is fresh into the theater, the quality is not bad, and the audience's reputation will not be bad. Ren Zhonglun has high hopes for "Animal World".

talked about "Animal World", Ren Zhonglun talked about another movie: "Do you know "Painted Skin"? ”

"You know, "Liao Zhai"."

"No, I'm talking about the movie "Painted Skin."

"The one at the last film festival last month?"

"Well, let's take this piece down."

The earliest idea of "Painted Skin" was when Zhen Dan and Ye Weixin bumped in, and there was nothing at that time, so it was determined that Zhen Dan would play Wang Erlang, Wang Sheng's brother, to subdue demons and eliminate demons.

plans to make it into a magical action movie, saying that it will be made into a Chinese version of "Blade".

Last month, Zhen Dan brought this film to promote it alone, and it was rumored at the film festival that "Painted Skin" is "expected to invite Zhang Ziyi and Fan Bingbing to play the two heroines in the film".

"In addition, the actor who will play Wang Erlang's younger brother has not yet been decided, and Korean star Kwon Sang-woo and Hong Kong star Wu Azu are both likely to star."

"Ye Weixin, he doesn't have time, let's find another director to do it." Ren Zhonglun said, "We want to make this film a co-production, and I think you are particularly suitable for the role of Wang Sheng." ”

In fact, the boss of Hong Kong Island will not vote for a blockbuster like "Painted Skin" at all, and Zhen Bullet has to find money in the mainland.

After NX Studios and Shangying came in, the first action was to open Ye Weixin.

Zhen Dan has to admit it even if he doesn't recognize it, because if he doesn't rely on the mainland, he can't find money at all.

And even if a boss votes for him, he doesn't have enough connections in the mainland to invite a weighty star to play Wang Sheng and the two heroines.

"Painted Skin" is a good film, but Wang Sheng is not a good character.

The highlight of "Painted Skin" is Pei Rong and Xiao Wei, and Wang Sheng is a tool man.

Moreover, the male protagonist of this film is Pang Yong played by Zhen Dandan, not Wang Sheng.

That's fucked up.

Why did Zhang Yuanjun, the first student in the mainland, carry a sedan chair for Zhen Dan!

Although this kind of thing is not uncommon, mainlanders, no matter how popular you are, are supporting roles for Hong Kong Island stars in co-productions.

The original time and space Xiao Ming is popular enough, and in "Sharpshooter", he is not the anti-No. 1 for Brother Guanxi.

There is another one, "Painted Skin" will tear up.

Zhou Xun and Zhao Yanzi will tear up, if they play Wang Sheng, Zhang Yuanjun believes that his team will also tear up the position of Zhen Bullet.

It's boring, but it's necessary.

It is impossible for Zhang Yuanjun not to care.

My 22-year-old film actor was shortlisted for the Cannes main competition, except for 17-year-old Xia Yu, I can't find anyone else in the Chinese film industry, the movie debut score is 54 million, the top 80 generation, why should such a rising star give you a supporting role.

Zhang Yuanjun did not refuse Ren Zhonglun on the spot, but said: "I'll take a look when the script is finalized, and I don't know if I can adjust the schedule later." ”

Here in Ren Zhonglun, there was a chat without refusing, and agreed to Zhang Yuanjun's request.

The two talked some more gossip, and Ren Zhonglun resigned and left the crew of "Love Has an Afterlife".
