Huayu: Start by asking ex-girlfriends for alms

Chapter 42: War in the Crew!

Chapter 42: War in the Crew! (4K combined chapter, please read it later)
The script of the remake of "Nobody" is much more complicated than the original.

Of course, what is complicated is not the plot, but the many ingenious plot designs.

Ning Hao, Yue Xiaojun, and Xing Aina are a junior iron triangle that is still in the running-in period.

Plus Zhen Jiecheng’s foundation from his previous life and his accumulation in this life.

The "Nobody", which has not yet been finalized, is about to move towards the "Crazy Racing" level track.

"Crazy Racing" was filmed in 08. This movie directly helped Ning Hao become the fourth Chinese director to enter the million yuan club.

But even so, "Crazy Racing" is still greatly underestimated!
A small part of its box office success comes from the reputation Ning Hao established through "Crazy Stone", but most of it depends on the film's solid quality.

Actor appeal?
Gao Jie? Rong Xiang? Jiu Kong?

Could it be a duo taking the postgraduate entrance exam?
It can’t be Huang Bo!
Although Huang Bo left a little impression in the circle through "Get on the Bus, Let's Go".

"Crazy Stone" also boosted the market sales of Baleno in China.

But as an actor, the talk of his appeal at that time was pure nonsense.

In other words, the box office potential of "Crazy Racing" has not been fully developed.

If Ning Hao had the same series of cool operations that Zhen Jiecheng had done for the promotion of "Life Events", adding tens of millions to the box office would be a piece of cake.

If the actor is very popular and talked about among the people, and has box office appeal, his popularity will continue to rise!
As one of the representative works of domestic comedy films, "Crazy Racing" was ultimately "covered in dust" in the film market at that time.

"The paralyzed, sharp-tongued woman and the two robbers are a story line,"

"The fallen woman and the nightclub manager are one story line."

"The second generation of the rich and the police share a story line."

"The robber's younger brother is in love with a fallen woman, the nightclub manager's ex-girlfriend is a sharp-tongued woman, the sharp-tongued woman was paralyzed by a drunk driving accident by a rich second-generation man, the rich second-generation man drank at the manager's nightclub, and the police targeted the rich second-generation man who happened to be the sharp-tongued woman's neighbor."

"The robber bought a police uniform and rode away on his motorcycle after checking the manager's violation."

"I happened to encounter a car accident caused by a rich second-generation on the road. I was stopped by the crowd because of the uniform I was wearing. While pretending to deal with the scene, I found and took away the shotgun in the rich second-generation's car."

"From this, the cross-plot advancement begins!"

In the studio conference room, with the arrival of Sister Na and Yue Xiaojun, the four-member screenwriter team met again and started polishing the script under the leadership of Zhen Jiecheng.

Everyone put forward their new ideas and thoughts during this period, and then discussed them with each other.

Where revisions are needed, where additions and deletions are needed, and where it is better to just start over completely.

How to create "coincidence superposition", how to design "coincidence cross-frequency dialogue",
Of course, there are lines full of jingles.

At this point, Zhen Jiecheng's burst of inspiration left the three of them dumbfounded, and his unique train of thought made Ning Hao applaud repeatedly.

“That’s a good sentence!”

"This sentence is not only used just right, but also leaves a particularly deep impression on people!"

"Ouch! Jie Cheng, what's going on in your head?"

"I'm convinced. No wonder you can pick up so many girls!"

"Niu beep!"

"Wife, I also want to be full of jingles, how about I take the postgraduate entrance examination?"

"Forget it, I won't take the exam."

"Lu Chuan is an outstanding master's degree graduate, but he doesn't seem to be that great."

In response, Yue Xiaojun just laughed and kept silent.

He would never dare to do what a certain alumnus of the Central Academy of Drama did, and join forces with a traitor within the Beijing Film Academy to criticize outstanding students of the Beijing Film Academy.

Oh, right,
Lu Chuan returned to Beijing recently!
Dust-ridden,

With the witness of reporters, he tearfully denounced the suppression by evil forces.

He repeatedly emphasized that his new works would deal a powerful blow to malicious slander.

The wind and sand all over the sky bear witness to

The desolate plateau bears witness,

The sheep dung egg bears witness,

"Kekexili" will surely clear its name!
"Just think of it as giving the teacher some face!"

"No matter what Jiang Wen said, as long as it involves Lu Chuan, you should just say less, okay?"

Professor Jiang's request was very "humble".
It’s not about not responding, but responding less.

After the "reconciliation project" suffered repeated failures, if the school leaders had not insisted, she would have given up treatment long ago.

How to reconcile this?

A person who appears arrogant on the outside but extremely sensitive on the inside.

The other one? He looks honest and well-behaved, but he is actually very slippery.

Listen to everything you say, and everything you hear is right.

It's right but I won't change it, and even if I change it, it won't feel right.

From a head-on confrontation to a sarcastic tone, the soft knife stabbing the heart is more hurtful.

Professor Jiang is really exhausted.
Especially when he learned that Zhen Jiecheng was about to go to the crew of "Letter from a Stranger" to play with Jiang Wen for a while, his mentality became even more explosive.

These two guys just walked for a while on the Beijing Film Academy campus, but they created many sensational headlines in the entertainment tabloids the next day.

Now that we have to stay together for a long time, won’t it take off?

It just so happened that Lu Chuan returned to the capital to rest, so wouldn't the paparazzi have to pass on the news to both sides?

孽孽!
"Don't worry, teacher. Don't you know who I am?"

I know! That's why I'm worried!

"I will definitely keep my mouth shut, at least not name names."

I understand. I will still say what I should say.

Sarcasm is just a basic operation, and the object's name is alternately referred to as "Lu Mou" and "Mou Chuan".

"As a student of Beijing Film Academy, it is my responsibility to maintain the reputation of my alma mater! It is my duty to publicize the academic style of my alma mater!"

As he spoke, Zhen Jiecheng raised his head slightly.

The sunlight shines on the side of his face, and his three-dimensional facial features look like they were cut by a knife or an axe.

Looking forward, resolute and affectionate,

"I will never forget my original aspiration, respect my seniors, love my juniors, unite all alumni, and speak for my alma mater together."

Professor Jiang:
Senior sister?

School girl?

Damn it! You bastard!
You should go and get the girls from the Central Academy of Drama and the Beijing Dance Academy!

"roll!"

"okay!"

Zhen Jiecheng turned around and left, closing the door politely, and after going downstairs, he took out his cell phone.

"Hey, brother!"

"Have your assistant drive the car to the gate. I'll be there soon."

"Okay, see you on the set later!"

"Jie Cheng, welcome to my crew."

Wang Shuo was not there, so Xu Jinglei ignored Zhen Jiecheng's offer and gave him a warm hug.

"Sister, we agreed you're welcome."

"Haha, it's my fault!"

"Come on, come on, let me introduce you to the crew members."

"This is Teacher Jiao Huangjiao."

Wow! Good boy!
A big-time veteran actor!
Before retirement, he devoted himself to the field of drama.
After retirement, he participated in "Yongzheng Dynasty", "Under the Red Flag", "Qianlong Dynasty", "The Emperor Wu of Han", and "All Quiet in Peking". They are all well-known dramas!

Although he is not well-known, he has received many honors!

"Hello, Teacher Jiao!"

Zhen Jiecheng extended his hands enthusiastically and bent down intentionally to lower his height so that the old man didn't have to look up.

"Director Zhen, hello to you too."

"Teacher Jiao, I'm just here to visit the set. I'm not the director. You can just call me Jiecheng."

"Well, I will just take advantage of my seniority and call you Jiecheng for now."

"That's how it should be!" He said, loosening his grip on Teacher Jiao's hand.

Beside him, Xu Jinglei had already started introducing the next person.

"Jiecheng, this is Mr. Li Pingbin from Taiwan Province, serving as the crew's photographer."

Damn, it’s the boss again!
Its handheld video game consoles have been produced for films and TV series almost every year since the 1980s, and have won numerous honors at major film festivals at home and abroad.

Among them are the three major Europa awards.

He has collaborated with many famous directors in the circle, such as Jiang Wen. "The Sun Also Rises" was directed by Li Pingbin!
"Hello, Teacher Li!"

"If there is a chance for cooperation in the future, Mr. Li, please do not refuse my invitation."

"Okay! As long as there is no conflict in schedule, I am also looking forward to working with you, Director Zhen."

"Jiecheng, this is our crew's art designer, Mr. Cao Jiuping!"

屮!
And he’s a big boss!

Cao Jiuping was the art designer for Zhang Yimou's art films that won awards all over Europe.

Similarly, he also participated in Jiang Wen's project with Li Pingbin.

As the future Dean of the Fine Arts Department of Communication University of China, I have to design a special display wall at home to display all the medals!
"Teacher Cao, your art design gave me a lot of homework."

"Oh? Director Zhen, didn't you major in photography in your undergraduate studies and directing in your graduate studies?"

"Hey, it's because he's full of energy and young and can't settle down. He wants to get his hands on everything."

Zhen Jiecheng smiled embarrassedly.
"It's just like the line in The Biography of Mr. Wu Liu: Don't seek to understand too much."

"But what I said was purely literal."

Hearing this, Cao Jiuping shook his head.
"No matter how literal the meaning is, it still cannot be without the 'good reading' in the previous sentence!"

“Not only did he read, he also took the initiative to do his homework.”

"I don't know if it means not to understand everything, but I only know that it's always right to learn more."

"That's right! I'm just wondering, Jiecheng, why are you so modest all day long!"

Jiang Wen came forward and put his hand on Zhen Jiecheng's shoulder.

"Can't you behave like a young man?"

"Does dating count?"

"That's bullshit! When it comes to dating, there's no age limit!"

Looking at Jiang Wen's confident look,
Zhen Jiecheng cursed fiercely in his heart,
Hey! There is also this big guy named Jiang Wen!

If you count carefully, it's just a "Letter from an Unknown Woman".
It brings together people from Taiwan, Shanghai, and Northwest China.
There is also Jiang Wen, who is from Beijing.
Plus the investors including Baoli Huayi and investors from Hong Kong circle.

Ma Legebi,
Wang Shuo is a bastard. He really spends a lot of money to pick up girls!

Disrupting the market and driving up prices.

The dog deserves to lick nothing in the end!

Zhen Jiecheng decided that if there is a suitable opportunity in the future, he must support Feng Kuazi.

Amid the surging ridicule and insults, Feng Kuzi could still see a warm Big Dipper when he looked up.

Zhen Jiecheng's visit did not stop the crew from operating.

After a brief exchange, the filming continued.

As a guest, Zhen Jiecheng naturally has the awareness of a guest.

On the first day of my arrival, I watched more, listened more and talked less. Based on the complete script given by Xu Jinglei, I watched with interest as Jiang Wen controlled the crew and gave orders.

This actor is so dedicated!

I have done everything I should and shouldn’t do.

Compared to Lu Chuan who cried and called her parents, Xu Jinglei was much more obedient.

Jiang Wen believed whatever he said, there was no rebuttal, just cooperation.

Of course, the proper directing procedures still need to be followed.

For example, "action",
For example, follow Jiang Wen's instructions.
Jiang Wen frowned and shouted "click".

Jiang Wen hesitated and said, "I'll keep one."

Jiang Wen was satisfied and said, "Pass! Next one."

hiss,
No wonder Wang Shuo is so devoted to her.
She is really good at it!

"Jiecheng, can you give me some advice?"

"Now that you're here, what's the point of being mute?"

After completing the day's shooting task comfortably and happily, Jiang Wen made a particularly sincere request to Zhen Jiecheng at the dinner table.

"Brother, you have to let me figure out the script first, right?"

"Then have you finished reading?"

"finish watching!"

"How's the thinking going?"

"Brother, I'm not a god. Can I be so confident after reading it once that I can make changes to the script that has already been finalized and started filming?"

"I didn't mean that, I meant the shooting!"

"But I'm just a visitor, isn't that inappropriate?"

"Ask the director if it's appropriate. Your sister is right here!"

Hearing this, Xu Jinglei immediately agreed.

"Suitable! Of course it's suitable!"

"Jiecheng is my junior, and juniors and seniors are like family, there's nothing inappropriate about that."

"Since my elder sister and elder brother both said so," Zhen Jiecheng was ready to make a move, "I will show off my ugliness!"

When filming "Life Events", Zhen Jiecheng initially wanted to control the crew by "getting angry".

But as the filming progressed, Zhen Jiecheng had to admit: many tyrants on the set were not really intentionally establishing a "personality" or pretending to be so.

Because of the "desire for control", people cannot help themselves.

Regarding this point, many famous directors have interpreted it in different styles.

For example, Zhang Yimou’s “silence” when facing Jiang Wen: You can say whatever you want, I won’t change, whatever you want!

Another example is Wang Mojing: There is not even a complete script when the film starts shooting, how can we shoot with a main “feeling”!
If a shot doesn’t feel right, they will shoot it over and over again without any explanation, dozens of times in a row, until the actor is tortured to the point of mental breakdown.

Compared to this weirdo, Zhen Jiecheng is much more serious.

But the problem is, there is another person in the crew named Jiang Wen who also thinks he is very serious.

On the second day of Zhen Jiecheng's visit,

Make some suggestions and have friendly discussions.

On the third day of Zhen Jiecheng's visit to the studio,

A little controversy, not surprising.

On the fourth day,
On the fifth day,
"Jie Cheng, you're just here to visit the set!"

"Brother, you are just the leading actor."

"It doesn't matter whether the main character is the main character or not!"

"Important! Very damn important! And I also got my sister's authorization. I'm also a director!"

"I'll be a director even if I wait another two years!"

"Oh, but you're not now."
