Chapter 268

In fact, although there is this kind of kissing scene in "Source Code", and the other party is still the goddess in many people's hearts, from Chen Xi's point of view, this matter is not so likable, but there is a kind of The strange feeling of doing business in front of the camera... Anyway, he didn't think this matter was so surprising.

Kiss scenes and kisses in real life are two different things. Except for some particularly wretched actors, in fact, no matter whether it is a kiss scene or a bed scene, on the whole, it is just a job, not some A breeding ground for emotions.

Now Chen Xi is only worried about whether he can do this well. After all, he really lacked the experience of starring in a big screen movie that he really participated in before, and the kiss scene in this scene will become the main character in "Source Code". A freeze-frame of beauty, in this place, no matter what, that aesthetic feeling must be performed.

Under such circumstances, Chen Xi is indeed facing a big problem now.

However, there has to be a first time in everything, especially in the current situation, no matter what, Chen Xi has to take this step.

... "Okay, don't be too nervous..." Chen Xi said to Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei was also a little braver this time, and said teasingly: "Chen Laoshi, why do I feel that you are more nervous?"

"Do I have it?" Chen Xi had a feeling of being seen through, and even felt a little guilty, but he quickly coughed dryly: "Perform your own play well, don't worry too much about others, I tell you not to be nervous, Just take it easy! There's so much nonsense."

Although Chen Xi's words were not so friendly, but when they appeared in Liu Yifei's ears, they had a bit of a strong taste, so Liu Yifei smiled secretly, and then assured Chen Xi: "Okay, I will Got it, Chen Laoshi!"

Chen Xi glared at him, and then, the filming was about to begin.

In front of the camera, Chen Xi adjusted her mood slightly. After the executive director called out to start, the previous scene and the current scene appeared together, so Chen Xi also started her own performance.

In the first scene, it really wasn't that Chen Laoshi had a problem, but...

A certain director caught someone else's handle, and now he became very angry: "Let me tell you something good about you? You are a professional actor, so I don't need to say too much about these issues, right?"

The reason for this is that Liu Yifei just laughed...

Liu Yifei was also very embarrassed, she didn't know what she was doing just now, but it turned out that Chen Xi really caught the conversation: Chen Xi was obviously nervous, and it seemed that there might be a lot of problems... But now it turns out It really turned out that I can't act well, Liu Yifei is even a little bit wronged now...

Seeing Liu Yifei's appearance, Chen Xi shook her head slightly: "Okay, let's continue."

In Chen Xi's previous life, he saw something. When he acted in a sex scene, he didn't have a stand-in or borrow a seat. At that time, he acted like that. Therefore, the actor Wang Laohan intentionally laughed many times to win the chance of reshooting. As a result, the defendant was taken to court just after the filming was finished, and the charge was adultery. At that time, this incident was still very hot...

But it is impossible for Chen Xi to have such a mentality at all... In fact, he just wants to quickly act out this kind of painful scene...

Another performance started. This time, both Chen Xi did their best to treat it well. This time they also used their own methods to make the shot the best. So, Chen Xi's efforts to train Liu Yifei during this period of time can be considered to have achieved a lot of results. For example, in the current situation, Liu Yifei's acting ability is relatively good, coupled with her appearance, this frozen picture It can be said that it was the best shot.

In fact, Liu Yifei is more memorable and appreciated, mainly the static beauty that oriental people can appreciate, and this kind of static beauty is also quite likable.

In the last picture, what is really needed is a static beauty that is completely frozen.

As for Chen Xi, it is even more obvious. Although Chen Xi is not a professional actor, he is indeed more professional than a professional actor in some places. He can show more perfect characters and three-dimensional portraits of characters in many things. His current description is also quite in line with the image of the leading actor. In the final frame, Chen Xi did the best of these, which can be regarded as a perfect end to his first starring movie.

Next, Chen Xi is faced with more things, but compared to now, it is more of a problem in the post-production of the movie.

In fact, although the movie "Source Code" is said to be in the category of a sci-fi movie, the special effects required for this movie may not be as good as an action movie.

Because the source code movie is mainly a kind of thing that is similar to an idea that can last for many minutes. There is no need for too many special effects here. Many things need a plot structure to support the whole movie. In real special effects The place does not require much effort.

In this way, what the film really needs is the initial pre-production, and in the pre-production, Chen Xi and the others have done no problem and even are quite sophisticated. Therefore, what is left for the film now is the post-production promotion and issued.

In September, "Source Code" was officially announced, including the shooting of the scene in the movie, which proves that the movie that many people pay special attention to has finally made a very constructive progress today.

By now, the movie is just waiting for the final jian ji zhi zuo and publicity.

In fact, although Chen Xi and the others will invest close to 200 million or more in promotional expenses for this movie, it is different from what everyone thinks, such a promotional expense in China is only a small investment of [-] million. , the rest will be invested abroad, and the cost abroad will constitute the bulk, and among them, North America will become the bulk, which means that the main publicity investment for this film will be placed abroad.

The reason for this is very simple. After all, there is basically no need for too much publicity in China, because Chen Xi's personal popularity here is too high. Now many movie fans only know of Chen Xi's existence. This popularity has even surpassed A great director like Zhang Guoshi.

So even if Chen Xi's movie does not add any promotion, there will still be a lot of people waiting for him to watch the movie, which means that there will be a lot of movie theaters that will release Chen Xi's new movie at that time, and the number of movies scheduled is still low. It will be very high, so as long as the domestic publicity comes out, it will not be a problem. As for foreign ones, as long as the box office in the North American market comes out at that time, there is actually no need to worry about the box office in other film markets. On this point, Chen Xi and the others are completely No problem, but also has a very good idea.

It's just that Chen Xi and the others are still waiting for a lot of reporters at the finale. Although he didn't publicize this matter, many reporters are like sharks smelling fishy, ​​and they all come over up.

Under such circumstances, the wrap-up banquet, which Chen Xi was just planning to give a little news, has now completely turned into a wrap-up press conference that can be publicized. Now there are too many people waiting to hear about Chen Xi. information.

Chen Xi and the others could only follow the example of kindness. They temporarily held a final press conference with many people in this place. There were too many people present and the number was still increasing. Chen Xi and the others thought that there would be too many people. So many people didn't give everyone invitations, so now they have no way to restrict more people from entering the venue because of this, so the venue began to become more and more crowded.

Under such circumstances, the reporters began to ask questions soon. What they were looking forward to most was to hear news about his movie from Chen Xi. This was their expectation and also their hobby.

The first reporter's question directly appeared in front of Chen Xi: "Mr. Chen, hello, we all know that your movie source code has been successfully completed. This is your first sci-fi movie. From the current point of view, Can the effect of this movie meet your expectations?"

In fact, such questions are often nonsense, but the more powerful reporters can see a lot of things from the middle and even exaggerate them, and then everyone will know more information and increase their own attention. That's how the press releases and the like come from.

Hearing this question, Chen Xi said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "For this movie, what I want to say now is that most of it has exceeded my expectations, especially in terms of the degree of completion of the movie. It will be a movie that will bring many surprises to everyone.”

Chen Xi is actually a bit bragging, but there is indeed a lot of truth in it. He really feels that some things in this movie now exceed his expectations and are much better than his imagination.

The reporters were a little surprised when they heard such words, and they even thought that Chen Xi's words were not too explosive. After all, this guy also has a nickname called Chen Dapao. This guy is good at talking. Still pretty good at it.

Of course, many other directors may just be empty guns, but many of Chen Xi's words are true. Although it may sound a little unbelievable at the time, the reality later will prove that what he said before is true. able to do.

It is precisely because of this that everyone feels that Chen Xi's talkative words actually seem to be a kind of reality revealed in advance, which makes everyone feel that using Chen Xi's talkative news is not very attractive force.

At this time, the reporters themselves did not give up, and then asked Chen Xi: "Mr. Chen, during the filming of the source code movie, it was basically sealed and there was no more information. Many people don't know The filming situation of the film, some people say that you are doing hunger marketing, is that true?"

Hearing this sentence, Chen Xi felt a little helpless in her heart. People nowadays are really smart, and they have guessed their own ideas. However, even if hunger marketing is successful, it cannot really be revealed. After all, although Xiaomi was indeed present for hunger marketing, they didn't admit it at all, they just said that their shipments were small, so of course Chen Xi couldn't tell the real situation now.

At the moment, Chen Xi said directly: "This is not like that, I hope you don't think too much, of course, we did have a sealed situation during the shooting of the source code, but this is because our movie is actually a sci-fi idea , I also said before that although I am not a soft sci-fi, many places are not particularly hard-shelled sci-fi. Therefore, some of our ideas cannot be leaked in advance, so we adopted such a method. It is not the so-called hunger marketing , and please don’t make random guesses.”

In fact, everyone doesn't believe Chen Xi's statement, but under the current situation, everyone can only choose to believe Chen Xi. After all, it would be really stupid to exclude public doubts at this time.

At the moment, the reporters are not entangled in this question, but started their new round of questions.

"Director Chen, in the source code, you chose to play the male lead. After the performance, do you feel that you have improved the strength of the whole movie or is it because the performance has dragged down the expressiveness of the movie?"

This question is actually quite sharp. In fact, it even has the pain of being slapped in the face. However, Chen Xi was obviously not too angry because of this, because of course he knew the urine nature of the reporters, so Chen Xi directly said : "About my acting skills, I don't want everyone to make unnecessary guesses. In fact, my acting skills are quite good. If you don't want to believe this, you can ask other members of the crew, and they will give you A more satisfactory answer."

Chen Xi's words may be true or false, but this is what Chen Xi's routine is like, true and false, anyway, he will not let everyone know the truth, because the image he has always established that seems to be bragging is actually true I will help him, and in the end, even if some people think that his acting is not good, they will recognize Chen Xi's acting skills because of this inertia.

This is Chen Xi's wishful thinking, because this matter is really not easy to answer, and there are too many people who pay attention to themselves, so many things have to be set up.

The reporters began to ask another rather pointed and routine question: "How much do you think the box office of the source code will be?"

PS: I'm very sorry, everyone, the update was very late yesterday, and it's only [-] today because my brother came to Kunming and I have to accompany him for a while.Last night, I went to pick him up at the station until midnight, please bear with me, thank you.
