This director is very reliable

Chapter 237 I want to show my prestige (fifth change)
"Frankly speaking, I don't like commercial films very much."

After receiving the coffee from the staff, Xu Zheng said thank you, and then said to Shen Changlin, "I always think I am a literary youth!"

"I know!"

"you know?"

"You used to be very famous in the Shanghai drama circle. "The Color of Stock" won the Magnolia Drama Award for Best Actor." Shen Changlin looked at him: "I heard people say that young literary and artistic youths in the late 90s must go to Shanghai Watch a play by Xu Zheng!"

Well, Xu Zheng is definitely a talented actor - he won the highest honor in the drama industry at the age of 26!
Then he inflated himself. Later, the two dramas "Crowded" and "Mother Tongue" he directed and acted in were both questioned. He even performed paralyzed state for 40 minutes on the stage alone, which made the audience dumbfounded. …

When the reporter came to inquire about the intention of this scene, Xu Zheng started to talk about his creative ideas in eloquence, but found that the reporter couldn't understand at all, and his eyes were full of confusion.

That's right, a person was paralyzed on stage for 40 minutes!

Pioneer enough?
This incident hit him hard: if what he plays is something that others can't understand and cannot affect others, it will be ineffective communication.

Then I started to act in TV dramas, with "Pig Bajie"...

Shen Changlin continued: "Old Xu, you should have noticed that the Chinese film market is becoming commercialized!"

Just chatting, Shen Changlin put down the work at hand: "Actually, I also wanted to make a classic work handed down from generation to generation... But I can't do it. For actors, literary films can indeed bring artistic achievements, but the entire film market If you want to become a first-line superstar, the commercial box office is a topic that cannot be avoided. Without commercial achievements, you will never be able to squeeze into the top circle."

"You mean A-list star?"

"right…"

"What if my ideal is to be an excellent actor?"

"Hehe... You want to be a good actor. Excuse me, if you are not famous, why do you look for good works?"

Xu Zheng was questioned...

"...Let's do business first. The audience actually doesn't care about business or art, as long as the content is good!"

Patting him on the shoulder, Shen Changlin stood up, ready to see the preparations for the studio - the car chase scene will be filmed later...

After walking out of the lounge, I ran into the director's assistant head-on: "Director, someone is looking for you!"

"…Who?"

"The person brought by Producer Li... seems to be Cui Baozhu..."

"...Take me to see!"

Well, it really is Cui Baozhu!
After a simple greeting, Shen Changlin apologized: "Aunt Baozhu... We still have to shoot in the afternoon, or we can meet again at seven o'clock in the evening?"

"It's okay, the most important thing is to shoot..." Cui Baozhu nodded with a smile: "Do you mind if we follow along for a while?"

"Of course I don't mind!"

……

The studio is as chaotic as a battlefield...

Everyone in the crew is busy, and there are so many tracks and cameras flying all over the sky.

Cui Baozhu has never seen this kind of shooting!

She even felt that many of them were completely unnecessary to erect.

"We want to create a sense of spectacle for this movie, with fast editing and multiple images..."

The assistant director explained: "Each of our cameras has a role!"

"...What is this filming for?"

"The car chase scene... Look, isn't there a car model over there!"

Cui Baozhu followed his finger to look, it was a section of carriage...

"We will add special effects later!"

"Just a car?"

"Vehicles can be added later with CG."

"... so advanced?"

"The one over there is our special effects artist, and the simulation animation effects we have done can be seen now!"

"Really?"

Cui Baozhu followed him and walked over. It was indeed an animation scene, but the characters in it had no eyes or noses, and they were all big squares.

The assistant director introduced: "This is the latest industrialized process of commercial film production. We animate the storyboard before filming starts!"

"...Do you shoot like this in every movie?"

"Of course not. In fact, we have only animated a few big scenes. After all, it's an investment of 1.5 million yuan!"

Cui Baozhu gave a thumbs up: "It's amazing, Hollywood is nothing more than this!"

The assistant director lowered his voice: "Actually, Sony Columbia invited our director to go to North America to shoot the American version of "Search", but he declined..."

"…refused? Why?"

"He said it was boring..."

Cui Baozhu glanced at Shen Changlin, who was standing in the camera crew communicating with the special effects team, and suddenly lost confidence in convincing him...

……

In the restaurant and private room, Shen Changlin warmly entertained Cui Baozhu.

After all, The Thieves really has her to thank.

Even simply drank some wine.

Cui Baozhu still talked about Feng Delun.

"I apologize for him. Stephen is a very caring person. Maybe he thinks that Shi Shi came to Hong Kong alone, and he might be worried about her..."

"Aunt Cui, this matter is not negotiable. I have to warn some people, my people, you can't mess with them..."

Cui Baozhu struggled a bit: ""The Best Detective" is a Hong Kong movie..."

Shen Changlin still smiled: "Then try not to show it in the Mainland."

"Xiaoping, what do you say?"

"...Ah? Me?" Li Xiaoping seemed a little surprised, but without the slightest hesitation: "I am sure the station leader Lin, our light and the partner of the light will also stand on him!"

Cui Baozhu sighed, and took a step back: "...how about this, we won't make a statement, but I will cut his part and ask him to personally apologize to you, how about it?"

Shen Changlin picked up the wine glass, touched Cui Baozhu, then shook his head: "Who is he, and he deserves to see me?"

Cui Baozhu froze for a moment, and really wanted to refute that he was your senior, but...forget it, and asked, "Then what do you want?"

"Auntie Baozhu... I don't need him to apologize, I just want to show my prestige, I want everyone to know that my people can't be messed with, if you mess with them, you will definitely have to pay a price..."

"But "Tai Chi" directed by him is about to be released... "Tai Chi" is a big production that Hua Yi invested [-] million!"

Li Xiaoping also turned to look at Shen Changlin...

Hua Yi is not easy to mess with!

At least for now he's still a giant.

Shen Changlin still had the same smile on his face: "It's okay, I'll give you time, and you can make a statement after "Tai Chi" is released!"

"But if "Tai Chi" is successful, the Huayi Brothers will definitely support him..."

Shen Changlin shook his head: "Brother Huayi, I'm not afraid, and I remember that the project of "Tai Chi" was started by Li Lianlian and Chen Guofu. Why did Li Lianlian quit? Also, "The Detective" also cooperated with Huayi at the beginning, why? Is it the light master operation?"

In February last year, Huayi Brothers published various drafts:

Li Lianlian will join hands with Chen Guofu as the producer of "Tai Chi" for the first time. It is also revealed that Li Lianlian will also play an important martial arts legend in the film besides the producer...

Then, quietly withdrew, not quietly, the main idea is not compatible...

By the way, the project of "The Best Detective" has also been changed from Huayi to Light!
Regardless of her expression, Shen Changlin said the bottom line: "...I don't care what disputes you have, I just want an explanation, and I want all Hong Kong artists to know...I'm going back to the hotel first, and I will continue to shoot tomorrow!"

Li Xiaoping watched him leave the box with a smile, and then said: "There is no need to make a statement, you can just publicize the news that he is going to suppress Feng Delun in private."

"Private publicity?"

"He just wants to show off..."
