Chapter 53 53. Break the jar and break it?
The story of Eagle Sauce Town?
Is this subject matter a literary film type?

It suddenly dawned on him that Chen Li was going to do what he wanted and choose content familiar to Westerners.

Tsk tsk tsk. Quite clever!

However, Allen did not inquire about the details, nor was he prepared to interfere in their affairs, fearing that the film would fail at the box office and be blamed for it.

He patted Chen Li on the shoulder and said with a look of pity and regret: "Do a good job and try not to leave any regrets. As for the actors, I am familiar with them and can contact you. You can make a decision if you think it is appropriate." ."

Chen Li also wanted to laugh, and thought to himself: Let's see how proud you are.

So he nodded and said: "Okay, then you can ask someone to come over tomorrow."

The crew was initially established. Although it was still a grass-roots team, at least there were two more assistants this time than in the previous two films.

The burden on Chen Li has also been relieved a lot. Now he only needs to use his mouth to have someone to help him get things done.

The next day, five actors, three men, two women, came to the living room of the studio.

When they saw a director with an oriental face, they were a little confused. Could it be that the studio had changed people?

But this has nothing to do with them. They are all young people who have just come to Hollywood to pursue their dreams, and they will never let go of any acting opportunity to show their faces!
Chen Li doesn't need their great acting skills, but rather their ability to adapt to situations, and their backgrounds must be foreigners.

As a result, after the audition, a beautiful girl with brown hair, Heather, and two other boys, Mike and George, were selected.

"Congratulations on passing the audition. Next, I will explain to you the content of the film to be shot."

Chen Li looked at the three eager young people, asked them to calm down, and then handed them the script and the background setting that Li Tian had made up in the past few days.

"What we are going to shoot is "The Blair Witch Project." This movie is about three young people who went to a small town to film a documentary about the Blair Witch Project in order to complete their college project."

As Chen Li finished speaking, the three of them already understood. Even though they had not played many supporting roles, they could still see that the play was very simple and not difficult.

"Director, I saw that there are many descriptions of us holding cameras in this script. Do we need to shoot at the same time?" Heather raised her hand and asked curiously.

"Yes! You and I are going to shoot at the same time. When the time comes, the film will be released disguised as a documentary."

"Pretend documentary?"

This is a new term, which is strange and familiar to these three people. However, when Chen Li explained it, the three of them were shocked.

Consider yourself a half-director?
OMG!Is this okay?Can movies still be made like this? !

After that, Chen Li arranged for the other party to read the script thoroughly and learn how to use the shooting equipment.

According to the requirements of the program team, the photographer will live broadcast Chen Li continuously. Of course, he can also take pictures if he encounters any special circumstances.

But now that people come to Yingjiang and work in Chen Li's hands, they are basically ignored.

Chen Li has the final say on when to shoot and what content to shoot. Nothing related to the movie can be filmed!
This also led to the fact that every time the live broadcast started, netizens were confused to see Chen Li fishing, and it didn't look like he was going to make a movie at all!

Netizens have speculated that Chen Li is ready to break the pot! ?
The program team was even more hesitant. They promised to invest a lot of money to make a movie, but why is there no movement?
On the other side, Wang Anrou had helped Chen Li select several small towns that could be photographed. After comparison, Chen Li chose the small town of Qiwer, [-] kilometers away, for filming.

Soon, a group of five people rented a car and started shooting footage while driving in that direction.

Qiwer Town is a relatively distant town. Although the transportation is convenient, there are few outsiders coming to the town, so the villagers were somewhat enthusiastic when they saw Chen Li and his party coming.When they found out that this group of people were here to make a movie, they became even more enthusiastic. For this reason, the mayor of the town, James, came out to receive them personally.

"Mr. Chen, you don't know that our town is relatively remote and few people know about it. Even if we want to develop tourism to increase residents' income, it won't work."

"You come to make a movie and help us promote it. In return, your food and accommodation in the local area will be completely free! How about it?" James looked at them expectantly.

Chen Li coughed: "Mr. James, yes, yes, but..."

"That's fine, no buts! If you need manpower for filming in the town, we residents can help. Anyway, everyone has nothing to do! Don't you think so?"

James waved his hand, and the onlookers responded excitedly.

"Yes!!"

There is no way, life in this small town is too dull and boring, how fun it is to be able to play with the crew, this is a movie!
Chen Li and Wang Anrou blinked: "Look, the extras matter has been solved!"

Wang Anrou said worriedly: "Brother Chen, are you sure you don't want to make it clear to them?"

"Yes, we are filming a horror movie." Li Tian also felt embarrassed.

"It's okay, the negative impact is also an impact!" Chen Li said without caring.

Wang Anrou was about to cry, she was afraid that if they found out, they would kill her in this deserted town.

On the same day, Chen Li finished shooting the crowd interview scenes and went to the cemetery in the town to shoot a few scenes.

The actors were very excited, and Chen Li's requirements for them were extremely lenient this time, and they basically met them all, so that they all wondered if their acting skills had improved by leaps and bounds!
The next day, everyone went into the forest to shoot. This time they brought tent food and prepared to come out after shooting.

During this period, Allen also called and said that the DVD of "Ghost Story" has been put on the shelves of major video stores. Although it has only been on the shelves for a day, sales have already improved, and the video store owners are very optimistic about it.

In this regard, Chen Li was also asked insinuatingly.

"It's not too late to regret now. I'm still willing to buy the copyright for 50 yuan."

"Come on Alan, don't even think about going back on your word."

"There is an old saying in the Xia Kingdom that a dog bites Lu Dongbin and does not know a good heart." Allen felt that he had done his best and had reminded him so many times that if those capitalists were allowed to come, they would definitely eat up this silly boy Chen Li. No bones were thrown out.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Li put the incident behind him and continued filming the scene in the woods.

The weather just happened to be bad, and it rained from time to time, which made the three actors who were originally in high spirits suddenly feel depressed.

Living in a tent, eating compressed biscuits, and filming, everyone was exhausted within a few days.

And this is exactly the emotion and lens that Chen Li needs.

But the one who was confused was Wang Anrou. She came to learn Chen Li's ideas and techniques for making movies.

As soon as she saw those passed shots, she was dumbfounded.

What kind of useless footage is this? Why not reshoot it?

The focal length is not even right! !
Oh my God, it made me dizzy and I couldn’t even see the person clearly, so that’s okay! ?
What is Brother Chen doing? !Previous mock documentaries were not so perfunctory! !Is the jar really broken?
Wang Anrou fell into deep suspicion.
