China Entertainment 1997.

Chapter 470 Co-director, luxurious cameo lineup of "Fengshen Bang"
"Listen to me, thank you, because of you, four warm..."

Snapped!
A pillow hit the face of Cao Xuan who was wearing shoes, and the awakened Empress Donggong gritted her teeth.

"Go away, it doesn't end at night, and it doesn't stop in the morning!"

Cao Tianwang was not angry either. The song was really annoying, so he leaned over and kissed him: "If you want to eat, I'll send it to you."

"I slept and went down to eat."

"Okay, you sleep, I'm going to film."

Tired for a while, Cao Tianwang hummed a ditty, left the room refreshed, and rushed to the filming scene of the crew.

After stepping on two boats for so many years, although Cao Xuan's body has also pulled through the warning line, but fortunately he woke up in time. From then on, he paid attention to health care, trained his body frequently, and increased his skill learning.

It's been a long time, and the long-term fierce battle with the East and West Palaces may not be helpful, but one-on-one, one-on-one, not in the slightest, not to mention that he has been recharging his energy for the past two months, and he has also studied Western knowledge.

Xiaobiesheng is newlyweds, last night Cao Daguan showed his might, and tidied up the empress of the East Palace.

That is to say, it is strictly controlled at a certain point, otherwise it will be worth eight thousand words...

After having some breakfast in the restaurant of the hotel, Cao Xuan came to the dressing room of the film crew. Mr. Zhou had already arrived and was putting on makeup. Whenever he saw him, he smiled flirtatiously.

"Why did Jingjing ask for leave today?"

"Well, she's not feeling well."

Cao Xuan didn't change his face, and attracted the contempt of Mr. Zhou's middle finger, and then with a little bit of envy: "It's amazing, what are the secrets of maintenance, please share."

"What kind of maintenance, we just have a good body and foundation, so we can make it casually."

Cao Xuan showed his acting skills as a double-gold actor, and denounced Mr. Zhou's slander.

Mr. Zhou was dubious, but he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he insinuated about the news about "Three Kingdoms·Chibi".

They are all old friends, and Cao Xuan didn't hide much from it. He directly explained: "At present, the male characters are still the main characters, and the female characters are just embellishments, so there aren't many scenes."

Cao Xuan is not Wu Baige, and he will not add most of the female roles just to praise female stars.

In the original "Red Cliff" movie, Xiao Qiao's sense of presence is stronger than Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang, and Sun Shangxiang played by a certain Zhao is also a show-off Zhang Zhao.

Leaving aside the phrase "Mengmeng stands up" that collapsed the world view, Sun Shangxiang and Xiao Qiao entered Cao Ying alone.

The former disguised herself as a man, joined the Cuju team, stole the topographical map of Cao Ying, and treated the five sons of good generals, Cao's clan relatives, Jia Xu Cheng Yu and other advisers as idiots.

At any rate, Sun Shangxiang is set to be a female general, and her fighting power in Soochow is superior to that of Tai Shici and Gan Ning. Although the plot is outrageous, there is still a trace of logic.

To say the least, it must be Xiao Qiao who, despite Zhou Yu's objections, entered Cao Ying alone, trying to persuade Cao Cao to withdraw from the army.

What kind of NTR plot is this! ! ! ! !

The most hateful thing is that Cao Cao refused to eat the fat that Cao Cao sent to the door, but played with Xiao Qiao as a confidante, like a licking dog chatting and drinking tea with others, being drawn to attention, and finally assisted Zhou Yu to win the Battle of Chibi.

Compared with this version of Cao Cao, both Fu Chai and Dong Zhuo are smart people, at least they ate the meat to their mouths.

Thanks to Wu Baige who didn't take pictures in this time and space, otherwise Cao Xuan might take him to court, which would be an insult to the reputation of their old Cao family...

Because of this, the Fanxing version of "Three Kingdoms: Chibi" basically doesn't have too many female roles. Except for Xiao Qiao, there are a few more scenes. Although Mrs. Gan, Huang Yueying, Sun Shangxiang, and Mrs. Mi have appeared, they have very few roles.

What Cao Xuan said was really sincere, Mr. Zhou also understood the situation, although he was disappointed, he didn't force it, and expressed it frankly.

"In the future, I'll make a cameo appearance as Madam Gan or Madam Mi to help out."

"Sure, but there is no money for guest appearances in friendship."

Mr. Zhou gave another middle finger, Cao Xuan grabbed it and pouted downward, scaring her so much that she begged for mercy.

"Ah, Brother Xuan, Lord Xuan, I was wrong, hiss, it hurts..."

Huang Bo, who came temporarily from the crew of "Mythology" to make up for the show, just wanted to go into the dressing room. Hearing the movement inside, he turned around calmly and dragged his assistant to smoke a few tens of meters away.

However, when he saw a makeup artist come out of the dressing room and beckon a man and a woman to come in with costumes, Huang Bo realized that he might have misunderstood.

I pinched the cigarette and went in with my assistant. Sure enough, there were several people inside and outside the dressing room. Cao Xuan and Mr. Zhou were sitting in front of the dressing table chatting and putting on makeup.

The headdress and the makeup on the face took at least ten minutes to complete, and they were not messed up at all, not what he thought at all.

He just said, the boss is not such an unstable person!
Huang Bo spurned his dirty thoughts, said hello, and began to put on makeup. Over there, Mr. Zhou was still asking about the director of "Three Kingdoms: Chibi".

There is nothing to hide, Cao Xuan let out a little wind: "The crew is in contact with Director Zhang, but it is not ideal."

Not long ago, the Organizing Committee of the Beijing Olympic Games held a press conference and formally hired Zhang Yimou and a team of directors to be in charge of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Olympic Games.

Cao Xuan himself, Director Chen, international director Spielberg, famous literary award Ji Xianlin, famous philosopher Tang Yijie, as well as some well-known event planners, producers, artists and experts at home and abroad, became the first batch of culture and art for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games consultant.

Now Lao Mouzi has already started the creative meeting, and when the first batch of creative ideas come out, Cao Xuan and other consultants will also go to see them.

Now there are still more than two years before the Olympic Games, and the pressure is very high. Lao Mouzi, who is filming "Curse of the Golden Armor", has given up a lot of power and put more energy on the Olympic Games.

However, "Three Kingdoms: Red Cliff" has to shoot both parts in one go. Regardless of the pre-production, it is estimated that the filming alone will take about half a year, or even longer.

If you count the preliminary preparations, you may not be able to fight for a year. It is definitely impossible for Lao Mouzi to follow the group all the way.

Although "Three Kingdoms: Red Cliff" is a big production supported by propaganda outlets and a certain bureau, the investment of the two films has accumulated from 3 to 5 million yuan.

But no matter how important it is, it is just a movie. Even if the investment share is increased by 10 times, it will not be able to compare with the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympic Games. It is about the face of the country.

Don't talk about robbing Lao Mouzi, if the organizing committee wants someone, Cao Xuan himself has to go there and guard it.

So the idea of ​​letting Lao Mouzi direct alone has come to nothing, but Fanxing and China Film are not willing to part with Lao Mouzi's ability to shoot big scenes, and are looking for a compromise.

At present, there are probably two directions, one is co-directing, and one or two directors are responsible for the pre-production and specific shooting, and Lao Mouzi is responsible for the overall control and big scenes.

The other is to simply let Lao Mouzi act as the producer, to supervise and guide the overall production, and the director finds someone else.

Cao Xuan and the others are definitely more inclined to the first plan, but the specifics depend on Lao Mouzi's schedule coordination. If it doesn't work, they can only act as the producer.

But no matter how Lao Mouzi chooses, the choice of another director who really does things has become a new key issue.

China Film Group belongs to Feng Xiaogang, at least Feng Pants' box office record is quite impressive.

And Cao Xuan himself "slapped himself on the face", contrary to what he said at the beginning that Hong Kong, Taiwan and foreign directors can't make historical films well, and he missed Hong Kong director Chen Kexin.

It's also because he was in a hurry last time and forgot about the movie "Certificate of Fame".

Although this movie also has a lot of flaws, it is indeed one of the few Chinese-language movies that captures historical intrigue, artistic depth, and war scenes very well.

If Lao Mouzi can't do it, Cao Xuan thinks it's okay to let Chen Kexin try.

But the choice of Cao Xuan confused China Film and the others. After all, Cao Xuan even rejected Wu Baige and Li An, but picked out Chen Kexin, who had never made a big production before.

You know, Chen Kexin is Wu Baige's half apprentice in a sense, and she debuted as an interpreter for Wu Baige in her early years.

Instead of a master, use an apprentice!
Sanye Han made two phone calls to Cao Xuan before confirming that Cao Xuan didn't have a cold and a fever.

It is impossible for Cao Xuan to say that he has a golden finger. Knowing that Chen Kexin has this ability, he can only talk nonsense and use the story of the famous European football coach Mourinho as an example.

In the early years, Mourinho was just a small translator next to Robson and Van Gaal, but now the blue is better than the blue, so everything should not be based on seniority, but on specific abilities.

But this reason is obviously impossible to convince Han Sanye, and Cao Xuan also understands that it is a bit abrupt for him to let Chen Kexin direct.

So the two sides are still seeing each other, but Cao Xuan, who is the controlling party of the project, has a great advantage.

At the same time, Cao Xuan also intends to bring Huang Jianxin to co-direct. This man has filmed the "Founding of the People's Republic of China" trilogy and is very capable. He is also the producer of "Tou Ming Zhang" in the original time and space, and can help Chen Kexin a lot.

The most important thing is that Lao Huang and Han Sanye have a good personal relationship. The two are good brothers in Nortel, and Han Sanye trusts him very much. Otherwise, Yuan Shikong would not have entrusted him to shoot the trilogy.

"Three Kingdoms: Red Cliff" is co-directed by Lao Huang. Han Sanye can feel at ease, and can also dispel some resistance.

As for whether Huang Jianxin and Chen Kexin have contacted the crew of "Certificate of Fame" now, it is not within the scope of Cao Xuan's consideration.

Leaving aside the fact that "Certificate of Voting" was released at the end of 2007, it is probably still just a project intention

Even if Chen Kexin was contacted by the "Certificate of Voting", Cao Xuan, the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee, couldn't grab it, but Media Asia couldn't grab him, so don't mess with Cao Daguan.

Not to mention the strength of the two companies, even the scale of the two crews is not at the same level. Although it is a joint direction, it is definitely a rare temptation for many directors.

Chen Kexin is known to be a smart person, Cao Xuan believes that he will make the right choice.

Therefore, the director lineup of "Three Kingdoms: Red Cliff" is highly likely to be co-directed/produced by Chen Kexin, Huang Jianxin + Lao Mouzi.

Several directors that Fanxing focused on training, such as Zhang Yongxin, who was filmed in "Military Division" and "Awakening Age" in the original time and space, and who is now filming "Fengshen Bang" with director Hu Mei, and Wang Jing, director of the film "Da Ming Jie" in the original time and space.

There is also the Chollima excavated by Cao Xuan himself. His own family has filmed the stars of "Snowflake Goddess Dragon" and "Luo Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai". Now he is Cao Bo, the director of the TV series "Mythology".

At that time, these few people will work as executive directors or producers on the crew of "Three Kingdoms: Chibi", learn and exercise, and come out to stand alone in the future.

"Director Chen is very capable."

Mr. Zhou had collaborated with Chen Kexin in "If Love" before, and after winning the award, he still recognized Chen Kexin's ability and praised him.

Huang Bo didn't have much opinion of the director, and he couldn't say anything. Instead, he took aim at the movie's role and asked cheekily.

"Boss, do you have a suitable role for me in the movie?"

Cao Xuan glanced at him, thought for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Jiang Gan or Pang Tong?"

"Okay, I won't pick."

Huang Bo was overjoyed. He knew that his qualifications and image could not play Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei, but he would earn money if he could play an important supporting role like Jiang Gan and Pang Tong.

Cao Xuan nodded. He especially appreciated Huang Bo's contentment without picking a role. His perception is getting better and better.

Even if he doesn't consider the achievements of the other party in the original time and space, and just focuses on his daily performance, Cao Xuan has the heart to open a play to praise Huang Bo.

"The script hasn't come out yet, and I'm not sure if Pang Tong will appear or not. Looking back at the finished product, which character is more brilliant, you are the priority."

"thank you boss."

Cao Xuan made a promise, and Huang Bo hurriedly thanked him, not forgetting to flatter him.

Ordinary people flatter, it is easy to make people feel blunt and awkward, but Huang Bo is particularly skillful, using self-deprecating and joking ways, and then inadvertently flattering others.

The atmosphere of the chat is relaxed and pleasant, even if the person being flattered knows that he is flattering, he still feels very comfortable.

Chatting and chatting, several people finished their makeup one after another, changed their clothes, and started shooting directly.

This scene is mainly about the lizard spirit played by Huang Bo, who goes around killing people in the city for Xiao Wei's heart.

Wang Sheng is the general who guards the city, and he has the responsibility to protect the environment and the people. There are heart-digging demons in the city, and they must investigate. .

Cao Xuan, who was wearing a general's armor, was holding a long knife, and with one lunge, he chopped Huashan with a force, and the lizard spirit dodged to avoid it.

In the setting of the movie "Painted Skin", Wang Sheng has high martial arts skills and extremely high combat effectiveness. He can single-handedly take on Xiao Wei and Lizard Spirit in hand-to-hand combat without using demon techniques.

After all, the lizard spirit and the fox demon are two people, and Duan Long plays only one demon slayer, and his individual combat power is even weaker than that of the fox demon.

If Wang Sheng doesn't strengthen it, he won't be able to fight. The two monsters can do whatever they want.

Therefore, in the setting, Wang Sheng beats the lizard spirit without using the demon method, but when the lizard spirit uses the demon method, he can still be killed.

But because Xiao Wei likes Wang Sheng and doesn't let the lizard spirit hurt him, the lizard spirit can't kill him and can only be chased and beaten by Wang Sheng.

In the follow-up decisive battle, it was also because the Demon Subduer used formations and big moves to limit the demonic powers of Lizard Spirit and Xiao Wei, so Cao Xuan showed his might, killed Lizard Spirit, and severely injured Xiao Wei.

To put it bluntly, it is to balance the combat power, and at the same time let Cao Xuan, the hero, also play a little bit, and he can also play with water.

Cao Xuan and Huang Bo fought a few times, and then started a chase, taking time to kill a few soldiers.

Later, Huang Bo, who was forced to be impatient, was about to give Cao Xuan a hard time, but was rescued by the secretive Mr. Zhou, and a little bit of information was revealed.

Let Cao Xuan realize that there is still an expert in the city who knows no friends or enemies, and it is likely to be a woman, paving the way for the following plot.

The two fought from daytime to nighttime, and after the real scene shooting, they went to the digital studio to shoot special effects the next day.

For the entire filming of "Painted Skin", more than half of the time was spent on acting and special effects, especially for the three male actors, almost half of the scenes were fighting.

In contrast, Mr. Zhou and Hu Jing are more comfortable.

Hu Jing didn't have any fighting scenes. Except for the final decisive battle, Mr. Zhou mostly played demon magic, and it was over after posing, and the rest was left to the post-production of special effects.

How rampant Cao Daguan was in the early stage, and how ruthless the empress of Donggong took revenge in the later stage.

After filming for a whole day, my back hurts, I am exhausted, and I have to pay the public food when I come back. The middle-aged man is suffering...

.........

During filming breaks, if Cao Xuan is free, he will also go to the crews of "Fengshenbang" and "Mythology" next door to have a look.

Especially in "Feng Shen Bang", Cao Xuan also played a role as the God of Haotian, who can also be called the Jade Emperor.

There is only one scene in the whole play. After Jiang Ziya conferred the gods at the end of the second part, the five righteous gods of 360 took their places and went to the Lingxiao Palace to meet the God of Haotian. The God of Haotian encouraged the gods to contribute to the construction of the Three Realms.

It looked like a big scene, but in fact there were no opposite actors at all. Cao Xuan just put on makeup, wore the crown of Haotian God, sat on the green screen, said his words to the camera, and then went straight to the filming.

The rest will be handed over to the later stage, and the green screen will become a majestic and majestic Lingxiao Hall, where God Haotian sits on his throne and looks around the hall.

360 The five righteous gods bowed and stood still, listening to God Haotian's admonition, and then respectfully replied in unison.

"Follow Your Majesty's order."

Live!

There are many similar guest appearances in "Feng Shen Bang", such as Mistress Sanxiao, Zeng Li, Zhang Tong and Yuan Quan are three golden flowers of Class 96. Hu Jing also played a guest appearance as the Madonna of Fire Spirit, and Chen Minghao played Zhao Gongming.

A total of five students from Class 96 cameo-starred in "Fengshen Bang", all of whom were Jiejiao Jinxian.

What I know is to film together, but I don’t know that Class 96 went to Biyou Palace for further training...

It is because "Feng Shen Bang" has a villain or a decent little character every other episode or even half an episode, so it is a very cost-effective arrangement to find a star guest star, and they are willing to sell Fanxing and CCTV to save face.

Therefore, in addition to the starring lineup of "Feng Shen Bang", the guest lineup is even more luxurious.

For example, Sanqing and the Second Saint of the West, Taiqing Laozi is Mr. Yu Wenzhong who played Zhang Sanfeng in Cao Xuan’s version of "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji", Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun is Mr. Tang Guoqiang, and the master of Shangqing Tongtian is Mr. Chen Baoguo.

The leading Taoist is Mr. Zhu Zhulongguang, who played the Tathagata Buddha in the 83 edition of "Journey to the West", and Zhunti is Mr. You Benchang, who played Jigong in "Jigong Biography".

As for Hongjun Daozu, Cao Xuan visited the thatched cottage three times on the phone before inviting teacher Lan Tianye from the 1990 version of "Fengshen Bang".

With so many big shots sitting together, the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation didn't need to be acted, the saint's aura rose up, and the plot was very convincing when filmed.

It’s not about praising one and stepping down one, but many "sages" with the theme of conferring gods, although they invite old actors, may not be able to support such a big role.

Cao Xuan has connections and strength, and the bosses are willing to sell face to form such a powerful and luxurious lineup.

At the same time, it was also because of this that Cao Xuan wanted to let his master Li Xuejian play Jiang Ziya. Otherwise, if he changed to an ordinary actor and met so many big shots, he would really be overwhelmed.

Compared with "Fengshen Bang" where big shots gather, the crew of "Mythology" is much simpler.

The hero Yi Xiaochuan is still Hu Ge, Huang Bo plays Gao Yao, and Qiao Zhenyu plays the brother Yi Dachuan in a cameo role.

The heroine, Princess Yushu, has not been changed, she is still a white soldier. She has just moved into Yinghuang and is highly recommended.

The producer is very optimistic about her, not because of her acting skills, but mainly because Bai Bing looks very similar to Jin Xishan in the movie version of "Myth".

In the end, with the help of Yinghuang and the strong recommendation of the producer, Bai Bing snatched the heroine Princess Yushu from Gao Yuanyuan.

Of course, Gao Yuanyuan didn't lose anything, Yinghuang introduced a movie heroine as compensation.

The second girl, Gao Lan, and the third girl, Lu Pheasant, are played by Fanxing's Lan Xi and Guo Zhenni respectively, and the most brilliant character in the play, Lu Su, Cao Xuan has hidden a selfish heart and left it to Liu Tianxian.

This one only appeared in 8 episodes, and it can be regarded as a cameo role. It is a trivial matter to play three times with Hu Ge, and the fandom is the most important thing.

The intelligent and gentle Wang Yuyan, the innocent and pure Ling'er, the cold and delicate little dragon girl, Yu Zhouzhou who is like a pure first love, plus a kind and infatuated Lu Su.

For all kinds of Bai Yueguang characters who can directly reach the beauty of the soul, Cao Xuan held back his energy and asked Liu Tianxian to kill these boys born in 85 to 95.

Boss Cao is very curious now, with so many characters merged into one, how thick Liu Tianxian can be.

It's a pity that now with Fanxing's support, it's very difficult for him to see Liu Tianxian go crazy in the entertainment industry to death with his blood.

But I feel a little sorry for Jin Sha, "The Not Only Sky" was robbed, and Lu Su from "Mythology" was not kept.

Cao Xuan pondered, if he had the opportunity to make up for "writing" a song, the child is too miserable...

Cao Xuan went to visit the class "Mythology", looking at Huang Bo in eunuch clothes at night, with tears in his eyes, gritting his teeth and shouting at Hu Ge.

"You are amazing, you are lofty... I want to reach the highest level step by step, and I want to be Zhao Gao."

comfortable!
Cao Xuan also breathed a sigh of relief, and it was not in vain that he helped Huang Bo research together with Mr. Zhou and Hu Jing in the "Painted Skin" crew. The filming of this scene is not inferior to Zhang Shi.

Huang Bo is also very happy. This is one of the wonderful passages of acting in recent years. After the performance, it is very fulfilling.

Only Hu Ge looked at Cao Xuan resentfully. He actually didn't like the role of Yi Xiaochuan, he could even say he hated it, but he couldn't refuse the company's arrangement for him to play it.

Cao Xuan completely ignored Hu Ge's gaze, since this guy entered Fanxing, he has been treated like the protagonist of China Entertainment, no, the protagonist of China Entertainment is not as happy as him.

When Cao Xuan made his debut, he also played several villains. Hu Ge's "Blood Romance" is the second male lead, "Armor Warrior 2", "Legend of Sword and Fairy", "Hello, Time" and "Myth" is the first male lead of the four films.

Putting it outside is almost envied by others, and he also dislikes the character of the leading actor.

If I say this outside, I am afraid that other actors will be sacked and beaten to death...
