My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 537 Shooting "Fear Room 2", send a few to follow the trend and send a few
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!
The dark and cramped room, the shaking incandescent lamp, the light bulb was stained with fecal yellow stains, the surroundings were full of dead mosquitoes, and the mottled light source was full of negative metaphors.

On a blood-red chair, the man hangs his head, the sweat on his chest seeps into his sweatshirt, the whole person is imprisoned on the chair by torture instruments, and he wears a fang-like death helmet on his head.

On the front, a miniature black and white TV is placed in the middle.

Two cameras are placed on either side.

Qiu Litao stared at the scene.

This small and dark room is just a kind of set up. When shooting, in order to ensure that there is no scene, the photographer needs to have an accurate sense of position.

Behind the shooting scene, more than a dozen staff members were busy building other sets in the other corner.

This is the shooting scene of "Fear Room 2" in the Shatian studio. Like the first film, the production cost is as low, but the scene demand is not low, and even more abundant than the first film.

There are 27 sets built in this studio, and 80% of the scenes can be shot here.

"Crack!"

Following Qiu Litao's order, the staff rushed into the arena to untie the actor tied to the chair, and the young man stood up grinning.

"What a star boy, are you okay?"

Qiu Litao smiled and cared about the blood-stained young man in front of him.

"Don't worry, director, it's just a trivial matter."

Zhou Xingxing answered with a grin, then looked around, and took the initiative to ask, "Brother Changmao, I heard that the company has a new play to open?"

"New play?"

Qiu Litao looked at the picker, frowned, and when he saw the picker pointing at the staff who was carrying the machine not far away, he smiled suddenly, "I heard from my colleagues in the production department that there is indeed a fashion show going on.

However, it is said that the drama is mainly about the heroine, one of the two heroines is Ms. Wang, and the other is your sister from TVB.I haven't heard of the others, why, are you interested? "

"It's okay, it's okay~"

Zhou Xingxing sneered and said something perfunctory, showing disappointment.

After a few plays, he has developed fairly smoothly, but he has always been a small supporting role, and it is difficult to become a leading role.Finally, Sao heard that the company was going to open a new play, but he didn't expect it to be a female play.

Stretching out the overalls that were covered in blood, she walked towards the changing room in a bored manner.

But he found himself blocked by a big sweet potato.

A look up.

Big round head with mung bean eyes, very bearable.

If there is really fate in this world...it is nothing more than the moment you see it, you will feel that you and the other party are in love for a lifetime.

Looking at the two people with their eyes facing each other, Wang Jiawei, who was cold and cold next to him, frowned, always feeling that he had lost my love, and at the same time, Liang Chaowei also felt this feeling.

Liang Chaowei slapped his best friend on the head, "A Xing!"

Wang Jiawei also coughed lightly, and tapped his PY friend Liu Zhenwei with his foot, "Ah Wei?"

"Oh oh oh~"

Liu Zhenwei and Zhou Xingxing came back to their senses, introduced each other, and the four of them were familiar with each other.

"A Xing, just now Director Liu watched your play and said that you are very talented."

Liang Chaowei took the initiative to help his good friends pimp, Liu Zhenwei is also a well-known director in the circle at this time, compared to Zhou Xingxing who just started playing a supporting role, he must be considered a big shot, although he may not necessarily pay the bill...

"Where is there~" Zhou Xingxing smiled shyly, and then asked curiously, "You three??"

While speaking, he couldn't help but stare at the manuscript paper in Wang Jiawei's hand.

He heard that his good friend was filming Wang Jiawei's scene, and he was very envious, and he also wondered if he would have a chance to hang out, and it didn't matter if he got in or not.

"A script, I just gave it to Director Wu to proofread and proofread..."

Liu Putao touched the beads of sweat under her thick black hair, and muttered, "This damn weather is really hot."

At this time, the grape ancestor's hair was very thick, and he didn't understand the secret of getting stronger as he became bald.

"What about the script?"

Zhou Xingxing tasted it for a while, it doesn't matter if he acts or not, he just thinks that Liu Zhenwei looks quite suitable for his eyes.

"Let me lead you there. Director Wu is not in the office, he is building a new screening room."

Seeing doubts on Wang Jiawei's face, Zhou Xingxing took the initiative to explain, "Some time ago, the land next to it was also acquired, and a lot of post-production equipment was added there."

Wang Jiawei suddenly realized that he hadn't been here for a long time.

Since "Carmen in Mong Kok" became popular, he began to plan to shoot tens of millions of dramas. The outside world dubbed him, Li Licheng and Liu Weiyan "the three young masters of the Wu family".

A few people chatted and laughed as they walked in and turned out, just in time to see the construction team in full swing, and there was a three-story old-fashioned small white building not far away.

……

Because someone wears a windbreaker in summer...the air-conditioning in the drawing room is very high.

Zhang Jiazhen, Jiang Zhiqiang, Yu Weiguo, Liu Weijun, Kuang Zhiyu, and Chen Zhiwei accompanied Wu Xiaozu to watch "Young and Dangerous 4" which has not yet been composed and subtitled. Apart from that, the movie has basically taken shape.

The plot has been changed a lot, at least Liu Meiren and Mo Meileg did not appear in this drama.It also reduces political metaphors and puts more on action scenes.

This is also the reason Wu Xiaozu came to watch this drama on purpose.

Don't film in the mainland by yourself, and get stabbed by your own family later.

"Cut out a promotional video for this movie as soon as possible, and the marketing department will do pre-heating. You can calculate a figure for the promotional expenses and film schedule."

Wu Xiaozu estimated that when this movie was released, he should have already set off for the mainland.

The itinerary has already been arranged, for this reason, Li Hanxiang will also go with him, and it is called eating and drinking. In fact, he is worried about Wu Xiaozu and is going to help him get acquainted with some people and things in the mainland.

In fact, Wu Xiaozu was not very worried.

The identities of Hong Kong film directors and Hong Kong businessmen are enough to deter some people at this time, not to mention their own influence.And director Wu Tianming, a senior in the system, helped pave the way.

But Wu Xiaozu also appreciated Li Hanxiang's kindness, and the other party happened to be planning to shoot a new movie, so it made sense.

"Don't worry, we are negotiating the film contract and theater film, but according to the recent market research, there have been too many young and Dangerous-themed movies in the past two years, which may make the audience feel tired from watching movies. ...The movie followed the trend very seriously." Yu Weiguo said proactively.

There is no way to solve the problem of following suit.

Especially the inferior follow suit!

Hollywood can't put an end to it, let alone Hong Kong Island at this time?Following the trend of inferior quality is tantamount to an overdraft of resources, and it is also a big blow to film practitioners.

But there is no way. . .You control the world, and you can't control other people's shit and fart, right?

Moreover, there is a huge chain of interests behind these following trends, involving many issues such as money laundering.

"Following the trend has indeed caused the current market to be very chaotic, and there are young and Dangerous-themed movies everywhere."

Zhang Jiazhen shook his head and glanced at the big screen, then turned to Wu Xiaozu and said, "Wu sir, I suggest that this movie should be decided based on market feedback, and see if we should temporarily shelve this series."

"If it is put on hold, it will greatly affect the company's financial report revenue."

Jiang Zhiqiang said with a cigar in his mouth, "Now everyone is fighting each other. At this time, it may not be appropriate for us to cut off our arms. But we will not put it aside..."

Jiang Ershao stretched out the windbreaker that was trampled by his feet, and shook his head helplessly, "It's really difficult to not just watch a successful series dry out."

"Young and Dangerous" is undoubtedly the most successful film series of 1024 Locomotive so far.

"It depends on the situation. If the market feedback is really not good, it can be put on hold for a while. The market is chaotic now, but it doesn't mean that there is no market for young and Dangerous themes. It's just that we need this market to be updated..." Wu Xiaozu's words made several People will also smile.

You know how to cut leeks.

They also bought the stocks of E7 Culture, and now they have made a lot of money.

"If we put this series on hold for the time being, then we need to find a substitute. In comparison, "Chamber of Fear" has a good box office, but its audience in Hong Kong is still small. The performance of horror films has declined significantly this year."

Yu Weiguo interjected, "It would be unwise to rely on horror films. I also consulted the box office of horror films in Southeast Asia, and it also declined year-on-year. The box office of films of the same genre has been affected..."

"What's the plan for the production department?" Wu Xiaozu looked at Jiang Ershao.

"The production department is hurrying up to negotiate with the film studio on the cooperation of "Twin Heroes 2". At the same time, we have also discovered a few good scripts, but we need to discuss it before deciding to shoot..." Jiang Ershao rubbed the center of his brows, and also Very helpless.

The positioning of 1024 Locomotive is to follow the high-quality line, and the pressure on the production department is also very high.

It's not that I'm worrying about investing...it's just that a bunch of people are waving checks and seeing that they can't get them, I feel very distressed!

Before Second Young Master Jiang finished speaking, Wu Xiaozu suddenly said, "How about a gambling movie?"

"??"

"..."

"The "God of Gamblers" big universe plan..." Zhang Jiazhen hesitated, "If it changes, both novels and comics need to be changed..."

Wu Xiaozu raised his hand with a smile, and said: "I didn't say anything about destroying the big universe plan. We can follow suit and gamble on the subject of the film... outsiders follow suit, there is no reason why we don't dig this big cake ourselves! This does not conflict with "God of Gamblers" .”

"Follow the trend yourself~" Jiang Zhiqiang smiled.

"Sister story, isn't it very popular in Hong Kong Island? It can be used as a side story of "God of Gamblers". If it is suitable, it might not be possible to join the world of God of Gamblers." Wu Xiaozu smiled slightly.

"Recently, many companies in the market are planning to follow suit. As far as I know, there are no less than a dozen. Let's see who is more sharp, Li Kui or Li Gui..."

The world of "God of Gamblers" is a finalized project, and the overall style will learn from Suji and Marvel in the future.

How can you give up a low-cost and high-yield movie like "The Holy Gambler"?

He also heard that Brother Yongsheng Lafa made a gambling scene, New Art City and Golden Harvest also wanted to imitate the filming.

It really doesn't matter much.

Now that the character of "Gao Jin" has been determined, Fa Ge will naturally not act on other characters in the world of himself, the God of Gamblers.

This time I followed the trend while it was hot, and it was already in Wu Xiaozu's plan.

You can't easily let other people pick peaches, right?

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed~
Before he could think too much, there was a knock on the door——

Oh, the east wind is coming!
