Xianwu star

Chapter 158
The script of A Chinese Ghost Story is very long, at least in Wang Zheng's view, the short Chinese Ghost Story is no shorter than Fengyun in terms of the script alone.

Movies are not as simple as TV dramas. It can be said that every shot must be carefully crafted.

Among other things, let's talk about Zixia blinking, Dongfang coming out of the bath, Xiaoqian dressing on the screen that never fades...

Even after the special effects and actors look better countless times, it is still a classic that people will never forget.

Because there are too many filmmakers' hard work in it, they carefully deliberate every shot of the movie, and even some shots have to be reshot dozens or hundreds of times!
This is definitely something that is hard to imagine in the process of filming a TV series.

It is precisely this kind of persistence and earnestness that lead to the unrivaled heroes who have their feet on the colorful auspicious clouds, the invincible elegance of Sunrise East, and the heartbreaking A Chinese Ghost Story.

Therefore, Wang Zheng, who wrote a movie script for the first time, can be said to be extraordinarily serious.

From actor costumes, set lighting effects, and shooting techniques, Wang Zheng listed them all in the first version of the script.

Even the relationship between characters, psychological activities, and even the details of each shot were recorded by Wang Zheng.

The purpose of doing this is not for other reasons, but because this is Wang Zheng's first time making a movie, no matter what the reason is, the details must be portrayed in place.

Even, in many scenes, Wang Zheng drew a sketch drawing with reference to A Chinese Ghost Story from his previous life.

Being cautious is Wang Zheng's attitude towards this film.

In Wang Zheng's mind, there has always been only one A Chinese Ghost Story, and that is the first one!
In the many subsequent remakes, although the techniques and special effects have made unprecedented progress, it is inevitable to lose the purest expressive power.The kind of expressiveness that makes people intoxicated!

Therefore, for Wang Zheng, the script of A Chinese Ghost Story can only be modified from the original one.

At the same time, since the world of Tianyuan originally had sword immortals, monsters, and ghosts, many things Wang Zheng had to use realistic and exaggerated techniques to describe.

Therefore, while the plot and expressiveness must refer to the original work, Wang Zheng must surpass the original work in terms of special effects and sets.

While writing the script, Wang Zheng was also thinking about various problems that might be encountered during the filming process.

In front of you, the most recent one is the cast.

In the Lanruo Temple lineage, the tree demon's grandma's family is basically competent enough. With the tree demon's grandma's cultivation base, and Xiaoqian and the others are ghosts, if they deliberately use mana to pretend, everything is not a problem.

As for Ning Caichen, of course Wang Zheng took the responsibility very consciously.Although Wang Zheng is not the one who has an irreplaceable status, Wang Zheng also has the confidence to play his own Ning Caichen.

This is the same as Wang Zheng once watched The Legend of the White Snake.

In the original Legend of the White Snake, the young Wang Zheng had complained countless times about why Xu Xian was so useless?

The new version of The Legend of the White Snake gave Wang Zheng a different experience of watching movies. This Xu Xian is a bit different. Although he is a powerless scholar, he has his own stubbornness.

"actor……"

Wang Zheng bit his pen and pondered. After some arrangement, the main actors were short of Yan Chixia and Xiahou Swordsman, but there were none of the extras.

"Yan Chixia can make Tie Zhu put on makeup, but it's the first time to shoot a movie, Tie Zhu, a semi-professional photographer, must not be absent. As for the first-class extras, it's okay to say..."

After pondering for a while, Wang Zheng soon had a calculation in his mind: "It seems that I still can't get around the old team."

Having nothing to say all night, Wang Zheng, who roughly wrote out the script, found the dryad's grandmother early the next morning.

And the purpose of looking for her is nothing else, it is to hope that she will go to the Tai Huazong once, and bring a few people back for him.

Of course, as the Jindan demon grandma, if she went directly to Taihuazong like this, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble, so Wang Zheng also specially recorded a picture stone for her as evidence.

At the same time, there is also a list of the team members he needs this time in the photo stone.

Field manager Ma Yi, Xiahou swordsman Zhao Zimo, and the cameras who had been following Nangong Tiezhu all along.

For Wang Zheng's request related to filming, the dryad's grandmother of course readily agreed.Almost without much hesitation, the tree demon grandma flew towards the Taihua sect in the evasion of light.

That speed was many times faster than Wang Zheng's wrecked carriage!
Of course, the reason why the dryad's grandmother was so relieved to run errands for Wang Zheng was that she was [-]% assured of Wang Zheng, and believed that she would not have Xiaoqian's idea like Zhu Ming.

Firstly, she saw Wang Zheng's behavior as a man, although he was a bit of a philistine, a bit wise and self-conscious, but in essence he was indeed what a warrior should be.

Secondly, Wang Zheng's reputation is well-known throughout Chu, so it would be wrong to ruin his reputation just for a pure Yin ghost body.

Therefore, Grandma Dryad went to Tai Hua Sect with such peace of mind.

As for chief director Wang Zheng, it's not like he can do nothing without a team.You know, filming, especially filming, has always been for fame and fortune.

Even if it is not for making money, it is also for the promotion of the movie to make money.Otherwise, where will the money come from for the crew, the sets, and the special effects?Where does the money come from for publicity?

Not to mention anything else, let's just talk about Huojiazhuang in Fengyun, Wang Zheng just borrowed a courtyard in Xiling City and used it for a while, which is considered to be the end of the filming.

However, if the same plot is placed in a clean and compact movie, it is necessary to restore an original Huojiazhuang in order to use the screen to burst out the short-term plot feeling.

Don't talk about anything else, just talk about speed and passion. In fact, the story is very simple, just crashing the car!But as a movie, you have the nerve to hit it with a fake car?Who will look at fake cars?
Therefore, in the filming of the movie, many things have to be restored in place.

Why does the film and television city exist for so long?It is precisely because it has all kinds of large-scale buildings and props, and it is constantly being updated.

The Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and the film and television city all have counterfeit versions, and there are no flaws!
This means that the trend of domestic TV dramas in Dachu has not completely exploded, otherwise Wang Zheng will also plan to build a film and television city according to the various styles of Tianyuan World.

You know, that thing is completely making money every day!

Of course, many props and scenes cannot be provided by the film and television city.For example, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Harry Potter. In order to shoot Harry Potter, the props team did not know how much thought and money they spent on the close-up of the magic school!
But in any case, making a movie is a big deal that burns money!
And the family in the temple that was about to be renamed Lanruo Temple didn't look like they were rich.

What's more, it was already inhumane for Wang Zheng to ask them not to pay for filming. If he asks them for money again... if he is not sure, he will be struck by lightning.

Therefore, Wang Zheng couldn't help but set his mind on the behemoth here - Qiongyun Academy.

I have something to do with the dean of Qiongyun Academy, right?Door-to-door lobbying definitely has advantages.

Moreover, after being brainwashed by himself, Xu Kang has found the direction of life - to educate all living beings and all things!
And what story is A Chinese Ghost Story telling?A tragic story of love between man and ghost.

In this story, there are simple and cowardly scholars, pure and shy female ghosts, sword cultivators who regard demons as enemies, and even powerful demons!
Such a simple yet complex background, through the twists and turns of the love story between humans and ghosts, finally shows a central idea of ​​love regardless of race and age, and that love can be selflessly dedicated.

This kind of story can deceive tears, and it can also make many people understand through this story that even ghosts are divided into good and evil.

Under such a premise, flickering... No, it is talking about cooperation with Xu Kang, and Wang Zheng will have capital!
In Qiongyun Academy, Wang Zheng and Xu Kang sat opposite each other.

"Anyway, what happened to Zhu Ming has already happened, no matter how much you make up for it, it will have an indelible impact on Qiongyun Academy.

On the contrary, it is better to invest in my Chinese Ghost Story, when the time comes, the protagonist with a true and kind personality will be a student of Qiongyun Academy in the setting.

In this way, not only can the impact of Zhu Ming's incident be minimized, but also the Qiongyun Academy's sign can be advertised, which means to spread it widely.

Of course, the most important thing is the concept conveyed in this movie. People talk about good and evil, and aliens also have good and evil.

Once this movie comes out, it will definitely moisten things and lay a foundation for your life goal of being educated and non-discriminatory.

I don't know if the senior thinks the price offered by the junior is worth it? "

Opposite Xu Kang, Wang Zheng smiled like a little fox up for sale.

Hearing this, Xu Kang let out a long sigh and scolded with a smile:
"If people know that the well-known Wang Zheng is such a philistine, I'm afraid many people will feel sad."

Wang Zheng waved his hand, not accepting this at all: "Just say you agree or disagree!"

Xu Kang smiled wryly: "Does this old man have other choices? The reputation of Qiongyun Academy, this old man's dream, and even this old man's debt to fellow Taoist Huaishu are all bound together by you. Can this old man still refuse?"

When Wang Zheng heard this, a satisfied smile finally appeared on his face: "That's a deal!"

Then, as if thinking of something, Wang Zheng raised his eyebrows and said to Xu Kang:

"By the way, I don't have enough manpower, how many more can you lend me?"
