I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 219 [Solid! 】

Just like at the beginning, after Lu Zhengyi finished filming the old corpse in the mountain village, his father brought Zhang Changmou, Liu Qingyu, and Shu Wen to support him.

Now he has the qualifications and fame to support others.

However, although the Dark Night crew was very enthusiastic, Lu Zhengyi did not stay long.

After watching Zhang Yuming's performance, he had a meal with Director Fang and several leading actors of the crew. The guys exchanged contact information in an amicable manner and left.

Except for Yu Wenxiu's accident, this was his first time to visit someone else's crew.

In this line of work, Lu Zhengyi saw what a normal crew should look like.

For example, actors work in shifts, and only those who have roles will be present. If there are no roles, some have not yet arrived on the set, and some are resting in the hotel.

Of course, there will be some actors who are willing to come to the scene to watch other people's performances, learn and observe even if they don't have a role, but this is relatively rare.

In addition, there are also exchanges between the actors in front of the screen and the crew and staff behind the scenes.

There is basically no situation like the situation in the Mei Rivet Cat crew where everyone in front of and behind the scenes is familiar with each other.

After the actors arrive on set, they don't need to communicate with other staff on the crew, such as photography, lighting, makeup... They only need to talk to the director and screenwriter.

The front and back are like two departments.

No, not right.

Neither front of the scenes nor behind the scenes can be called a department. To describe it in simpler terms, it is a bit like a temporary monster spawning team at the door of the game copy. After the copy is cleared, the entire team is disbanded on the spot.

At least during this process, Lu Zhengyi did not see that Director Fang had any thoughts of wooing those people.

Even for many people on the crew, including some supporting actors who have no role, she may not be able to name them. She often calls them "that person", "the photographer over there", "that actor"...

The Dark Night crew is not the director's team.

It was a team assembled by An Ye's main investors, and even Director Fang was selected by them.

There are only a few directors like Lu Zhengyi who take care of all aspects of the filming, from the investment of funds, the formation of the crew to the finalization of the actors.

On the second night of the visit, he left Haicheng.

[Zhang Yuming: @鲁正义鲁道, have a nice journey. 】

Because Lu Zhengyi rejected Zhang Yuming's offer to send him to the airport, he could only say goodbye in the crew's group chat.

As soon as he said this, someone else appeared in the group chat.

[Ajie: Hey, Director Lu went to see Xiao Ming? ”]

[Yu Li: @罗正正Director, is there any news about the new drama? (Poor)]

[Zhang Yuming: Yes, the director specially came to see my new play and praised me so much that I felt a little embarrassed. 】

[Chang Zhengwei: Oh, has Xiao Ming made progress again? 】

Before getting on the plane, Lu Zhengyi sat in the waiting area and replied to the message, "There is no progress, but the attitude is still quite serious."

[Zhang Yuming:...]

Regarding his trouble, Zhang Yuming showed an aggrieved expression.

"But maybe it's because I didn't visit the team for a long time." Lu Zhengyi thought, and added, "But Director Fang and Song Qi, who was filming opposite Xiao Ming, both praised him very much. It seemed that they all recognized Xiao Ming's performance. Acting.”

In his eyes, Zhang Yuming's performance can only be said to be similar to that of the first commandment.

It seems that he has done his homework seriously and has thoroughly grasped the role of the new drama, interpreting the image of an undercover agent who goes deep into the tiger's den.

But as for his outstanding performance, he didn't see much of it because he only visited the class for a day and a half.

[Chang Zhengwei: @鲁正义鲁director, has the new play been produced?Was it filmed in the country? 】

At this time, Chang Zhengwei also mentioned the new drama.

Although The Grudge has not yet been released, given Lu Zhengyi's temperament, there may be a script for the next drama.

As actors, this is what they care about most.

"I haven't thought about it yet."

Lu Zhengyi replied hesitantly.

Then, he sent another message, "But for the new drama, Xiao Ming will definitely have no chance. I see that you and Teacher Song have a good interaction, so I have to find an opportunity to ask if we can play together?"

He didn't want to talk too much about the new drama.

Mainly, it depends on the specifics of the response to the curse.

If it was just a small hit, he planned to strike while the iron was hot and go to China to film another film to avoid the loss of popularity caused by Chen Junsheng's participation in the film.

But in this case, people like Chang Zhengwei and others who are not proficient in Chinese language will definitely not be able to get on the ship.

But if the film becomes a hit, it means that my idea is feasible.

Lu Zhengyi planned to let the fire burn for a while, and shoot the previously shelved book at home, and then consider developing overseas.

As for saying that the box office was not good, that is impossible.

With two actors, Chen Junsheng and Abu Kuan, it is certain that it will become popular, and there will definitely be people willing to pay for it.

But if it can be a hit, in addition to the popularity and box office support brought by the actors, The Grudge itself must also be accepted by Chinese audiences.

[Yu Li: Oh~Teacher Song Qi. @张宇明 Your girlfriend in the movie is now in the fan circle. Many fans have asked for the 'sister-in-law'. Why don't you fight over her? 】

[Zhang Yu: Xiao Ming, I suggest you take it easy. Although we are on the strong side and are not afraid of falling in love, if there are emotional problems between the two of us, it will still affect our careers. 】

[Zhang Xueming: @张宇明 If you are in love, remember to tell your agent first. The same goes for everyone else. After you become famous, when making decisions, it is best to inform the crew. 】

Soon, someone in the group chat followed his words and talked to Zhang Yuming teasingly.

We are all old acquaintances.

Although Lu Zhengyi gives people an unpredictable feeling most of the time, they can still understand some of the more obvious expressions.

Like now, he brought up the topic and explained that he didn't want to talk about it for the time being.

But in the end, even Zhang Xueming came out.

Come to think of it, she was really afraid of this guy messing around.

After all, Zhang Yuming has a history of confronting others on Weibo.

She didn't care what happened to others in the past.

But now she was happy to remind him about Aiwujiwu and Zhang Yuming.

As I watched in the group chat, people started to line up saying "Hello, sister-in-law", and even Lao Zhang followed suit. They were probably copied and pasted directly.

But just as Lu Zhengyi wanted to open Zhang Xueming's private chat, he saw her posting a task in the group chat.

[Zhang Xueming: By the way, the shoulder shaking dance has become very popular on all major short video platforms recently. This craze was started by our bloggers. If you have time, you can follow the trend and record one too. If you don’t have time, forget it. 】

The new publicity route she had found for Guangying before came to fruition.

The craze of 'challenging to watch Lu Zhengyi's movies', driven by some bloggers under the Light and Shadow banner, has set off quite a craze on the Internet.

Based on Lu Zhengyi's own fame and the deliberate arrangement of light and shadow to lead the rhythm, many bloggers have followed suit.

This also proves the feasibility of this road.

However, this challenge cannot be copied across all platforms, but needs to be differentiated according to the needs of the audience on different platforms.

For example, viewers of long-form video platforms will be more patient and can watch the second and third 10-minute videos slowly.

For viewers of short video platforms, they need to edit and intercept important clips to stabilize the duration within four to six minutes.

As this publicity route gradually improved, they also began to carry out some appropriate marketing.

[Yu Li: My sister-in-law ordered me, it’s necessary. 】

[Zhang Yuming: It’s necessary. 】

[Yu Wenxiu: +1]

[Ajie: +1]

[Zhang Yu: +1]

……

As soon as she sent out the task, almost the entire group chat responded.

Whether it's actors like Yu Li or people like Zhang Yu and others behind the scenes, they also said they would take a photo and upload it.

At the end, Li Xiang and several other regular staff members who had just joined the crew also responded.

A few of them had just joined and had not kept up with the topic.

But now that this sister-in-law has spoken, she must not miss the opportunity to show her face.

"Are you ready to warm up?"

Lu Zhengyi looked at her task and seemed to remember something, so he asked her privately.

"Well, I just went over to your place to ask about the progress. Xiaofeng told me that the processing will be completed around mid-August."

Zhang Xueming quickly replied, "Based on this, the review will probably be completed in early September, and there will be another half month to a month to prepare for overseas review and release, and it will be available in late September or early October. .”

"Now we will start with a wave of shoulder-shaking dance, and stabilize the popularity and traffic of accounts on various platforms. When the shoulder-shaking dance craze is over, we can take advantage of the trend and rush forward with the promotional materials of the curse."

“It would be best if the overseas version of the short video platform also becomes a hot search topic to attract the attention of Chinese students.”

The overseas version of short videos is quite popular in China.

Many young people in the country like to play, especially high school students and college students.Many have even registered short video accounts for the domestic version of the Tang Dynasty to earn traffic by sharing some daily life and humanistic knowledge of the Tang Dynasty.

In turn, Zhang Xueming and the others can also use this to attract people from Heguo to help with publicity and create popularity within Heguo.

As for those Koreans who have already started working, or middle-aged people who are older, they plan to give up temporarily and will not deliberately spend publicity to attract them.

"Go home and talk."

Just when Lu Zhengyi was about to continue chatting with Zhang Xueming, the boarding announcement came to his ears.

He quickly sent her a message back and was about to get on the plane.

But when he put the phone in his pocket, his movements suddenly stopped.

'If that's the case, then I'll add more fire. '

Lu Zhengyi thought about it, took a screenshot of Zhang Xueming's chat history in the group chat, and sent it to Chen Junsheng.

Incidentally, he also added, "Uncle Sheng, I will avenge you for the injustice you suffered in Heguo."

The message was not responded to.

Probably, Chen Junsheng is not like Zhang Xueming, who pinned his own message box and added special attention.

So now, he hasn't seen the news yet.

Lu Zhengyi didn't think that the big brother would be indifferent after seeing the message he added later.

He didn't get a reply from Chen Junsheng until he got on the plane.

Lu Zhengyi was not in a hurry. After turning off his phone, he put on an eye mask and took a nap to pass the time.

And until he left, he had no intention of contacting Wang Xiaoxu.

Although, that silly boy doesn't have as good an eloquence as me.

But maybe, a true heart can be exchanged for a true heart.

After all, I didn't know Zhang Yu and the others at all, so I needed to use coercion and inducement.

As for Wang Xiaoxu, he shouldn't find anyone he doesn't know.

……

……

"Boss."

"Boss?"

"Fang Zekai!"

sea ​​city,

In a not-so-spacious rental house,

A man with short hair is lying on the bed sleeping.

But in a daze, he heard someone shouting his name in his ears, and he opened his eyes in a daze. In front of him, a black figure stood beside the bed.

At this sight, Fang Zekai suddenly woke up.

"Who?"

He shouted, picked up the mobile phone with a Xuanwu body next to the bed, and planned to smash it on the black figure's head.

But as soon as he stretched out his hand, he saw the appearance of the black shadow clearly under the moonlight by the window, and his hand suddenly stopped.

"Old, third child?"

Fang Zekai's eyes widened, holding the phone in his hand, and spoke in disbelief.

But after a while, he seemed to realize something and slapped himself hard.

Then, Fang Zekai looked at his hand in confusion.

He can actually control himself.

Is this lucid dreaming?
Going forward, his dreams have always been confused. Let alone controlling himself, he can't even realize that he is dreaming.

But he had heard of the term lucid dreaming.

"What are you doing, boss?"

Wang Xiaoxu scratched his head and felt a little emotional when he heard the title 'Lao San'.

After this death, no one has called me "Lao San" for a long time.

Everyone in the crew calls themselves by their real names.

"Well, I think about you every day and dream about you at night." Fang Zekai sat on the bed, shook his head, and looked helplessly at Wang Xiaoxu standing next to him, "I was talking about you to the second and fourth children in the morning. , I didn’t expect it, I just dreamed about it tonight.”

"Speaking of which, we didn't even have time to attend the anniversary of your death some time ago."

"I'm going to take a rest after a while and plan to go see you. You can tell me if there's anything you want, and I'll burn it for you."

This feels like a dream.

Wang Xiaoxu looked at the dormitory eldest brother funny.

That's fine, it saves you time to fool around.

Originally, Wang Xiaoxu also planned to lie to the big brother that he was dreaming, otherwise he would not have chosen this time to visit.

"What are you burning? I came here to entrust you with a dream."

Wang Xiaoxu was not polite, pulled up a chair and sat down.

In fact, he is quite good at lying.

But he only does this to people he knows well, and only makes trivial jokes.

"To dream?"

Fang Zekai scratched his head, "Why, something happened at home?"

No, he heard from the fourth child that the third child's family won the case after hiring a new lawyer.

Wang Xiaoxu waved his hand, "It's not my family, it's you."

"Me? What's wrong with me?"

Fang Zekai pointed at himself, "What's wrong with me? Could it be that I'm going to be in trouble?"

"That won't happen. I will protect you."

Wang Xiaoxu patted his chest and chatted with his old brothers in the dormitory, which made him feel like he was back to the beginning.

This feeling was something that no one else in the Mei Civet Cat crew could give him.

"I want to ask you, do you still remember that we agreed at the beginning that we would make a game together after graduation?"

Wang Xiaoxu asked.

"That's not."

Speaking of this, Fang Zekai became a little angry, "You guys have fooled me."

"We agreed to make games together, but now? You're cold, the fourth is in media, and the second is in art."

"I am the only one who is still doing programming, look at my hair."

He smoothed his hair up from his forehead, spread his hands, and oh, a handful was covered with hair.

But looking at the hair on his palms, Fang Zekai was a little stunned.

This dream is quite real.

"Then what can we do? It's not like you can just talk about a program and it will work. If you don't have talent, you don't have talent."

Wang Xiaoxu spread his hands.

But then, his expression changed and he smiled, "But it's different now. I have money, and I earned it by doing... ahem, special effects."

"Although I sent some to my family, I still have quite a bit left."

"It's done. I still have some connections, so I wanted to ask you if you still have this idea."

He almost spilled the beans.

As a special effects artist, he should be able to earn a lot of money after working on The First Commandment and The Grudge.

When the time comes, I will send some to my family, and whatever is left on hand will be used as start-up capital.

After a prototype is made and the framework is set up, Director Lu will be asked to help invest.

"play games?"

Fang Zekai looked blankly at the person sitting on the chair in front of him.

Then, he looked left and right, and for a while, he suddenly stretched out his palm and grabbed the person on the chair in front of him.

"I'm super!"

Fang Zekai's eyes widened and he looked at the arm held in his palm.

solid!
He jumped up like a praying mantis and jumped directly onto the bed, clinging to the wall.
