Huayu since 1980

Chapter 878 One mirror to the end (4100+ chapters, please subscribe~)

The entire opening ceremony lasted for more than two hours, and this was because Wu Jianye did not hold the so-called worship ceremony.

The main reason is that there are too many journalists here. Almost all the well-known domestic newspapers and magazines are here. Everyone wants to see what a movie with an investment of 1.3 million yuan is like?
After coming here, everyone found that this trip was really worthwhile. The first question surprised everyone. The investment of 1.3 million yuan was just a drizzle. It was an investment of nearly [-] million yuan.

Secondly, everyone also discovered that Wu Jianye's fame is not limited to China. Reporters from North America and Hong Kong have all come here.

Originally, the reporters from Xiangjiang were going to be the stars among the reporters, but unfortunately, when the reporters from North America came, the sensation they caused would naturally be placed in the back row.

But before they came, they had received orders from their superiors, that is, what they could ask and what they could not ask.

For example, you can't ask about some of Principal Gu's experiences before, and whoever asks will die!
Reporters from North America asked questions about investment, while reporters from Xiangjiang asked questions about actors.

"Director Wu, we have noticed that the actors you invited this time, except for the leading actor, are all domestic actors. At the same time, we all know how influential you are in Xiangjiang. Now this movie With such a large investment, why don't you invite more Xiangjiang actors, so that the box office appeal in Southeast Asia will be greater!"

The reporters from Xiangjiang still hope that Wu Jianye can use more actors from Xiangjiang. This may be their sense of regional pride!

The domestic reporter next to him felt mixed feelings at this time. No matter how hard Wu Jianye worked, the film industry in Hong Kong is now better than domestic ones. This is indisputable. Now domestic actors hope to enter Hong Kong development, and it is very difficult for domestic films to invite actors from Xiangjiang. At the same time, it depends on whether they are willing to come.

Now the reporters from Xiangjiang are complaining here that Wu Jianye didn't use more Xiangjiang actors. Is this the difference between Wu Jianye and domestic directors?
Wu Jianye chuckled and said, "I also want to use Xiangjiang's actors, but Xiangjiang's actors are too expensive, and I can't afford them either!"

When everyone heard what Wu Jianye said, they couldn't help laughing. Everyone knew that Wu Jianye was joking. In their hearts, this was a movie with an investment of 3.8 million. What kind of actors couldn't be invited? ah!
The reporter from Xiangjiang also showed a wry smile, and said: "Director Wu, I believe that as long as you open your mouth, no actor in Xiangjiang can refuse your invitation. If you don't believe me, we can ask Gu Zai!"

Principal Gu at the side was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect the topic to turn to himself.

In fact, this is also the helplessness of Xiangjiang reporters. In Wu Jianye’s movie, there is only Principal Gu as an actor in Xiangjiang. No matter what happened to Gu Zai in Xiangjiang before, he is now the representative of Xiangjiang, so the reporters of Xiangjiang I can only find news from President Gu, and there is a warning from my boss, so I can only say yes!

"I can testify to this. There is really no actor in Xiangjiang who can refuse Director Wu's invitation. This time I was able to receive Director Wu's invitation. I was so happy that I didn't sleep for several days. I was afraid that I would wake up the next day. Turns out it's all fake!"

Although he was a little dazed at the beginning, Principal Gu reacted immediately.

When the other reporters heard such an answer, their pride rose for no reason.

So what if your Xiangjiang movies are better than domestic ones now? Don’t all the actors have to line up to participate in our director Wu’s movie!

After the interview, the entire opening ceremony is basically over.

At this time, the reporters were going to film Wu Jianye's filming process, but then they saw a group of people coming over and started to clean up the scene.

Domestic reporters and Hollywood reporters all know Wu Jianye's habit. During filming, reporters are not allowed to film, so after experiencing the initial surprise, they also left the scene in an orderly manner.

It was a reporter from Xiangjiang, who was a little surprised. You must know that when Xiangjiang's movie was being filmed, I really hoped that the reporter could shoot it on the spot. This was also for the promotion of the movie, and Wu Jianye had never shot a movie in Xiangjiang before. , so he doesn't know Wu Jianye's habits.

But they didn't dare to make trouble. Seeing everyone leave, they asked their own people to pack up their things and leave slowly.

Although Wu Jianye has never made a movie in Xiangjiang, Wu Jianye's reputation in Xiangjiang even surpassed those in China and North America!
After Wu Jianye saw that all the reporters had left, he immediately announced the blockade of the entire 'capital' and started the official filming.

During the six-month filming process, the filming time of "The Capital" must be maintained at least 3 to 4 months, and everyone is ready to fight here for a long time.

In order to prevent the plot of the movie from being leaked, at the opening ceremony of the movie just now, all the actors did not change into the costumes in the movie.

At this time, it was time to officially shoot, and all the actors immediately entered the makeup van and began to make up.

In order to facilitate the filming of the movie, Wu Jianye had transferred seven buses to use as workshops for actors to make up before the filming started.

"Honey, I'm going to put on makeup!" The first scene was a group play, and even Dandan showed up, so now that the actors are starting to put on makeup, Dandan will naturally go too.

Liu Xiaojiang nodded and said: "Well, go ahead, perform well in a while, I'll go and see how the group performers are preparing!"

Dandan nodded seriously, and said: "I will definitely behave well!"

People's desires are slowly increasing, and so is Dandan. Although the main role of "New Dragon Inn" has been booked, and in Wu Jianye's new movie "Eternal Night", there are also a few scenes with lines , but Dandan has got these now, so she began to look forward to better things in the future.

For example, he performed well in "Eternal Night" and caught Wu Jianye's eyes. If he can star in Wu Jianye's new movie in the future, wouldn't it be more fragrant?

Wu Jianye sat in front of the camera and called Zhao Fei and others to discuss the shooting for a while. The shooting for a while was a long shot, because the aerial photography technology was not yet mature at this time, and he could only borrow a certain actor or lens. The transformation of the city gave the Eight Great Monsters a panoramic view of the capital!

By the way, at this time, the gate of the capital has changed its name, it is no longer called the capital, but 'Liangren County'!
"After a while, the tone of the lens should be darker as a whole!" Wu Jianye told Zhao Fei.

Although Zhao Fei fights with Wu Jianye a lot on weekdays, when filming, he will immediately restrain his personality and fully cooperate with Wu Jianye's request. This is the tacit understanding between the two of them for many years.

Some actors like to choose actors they are familiar with when shooting their own movies, and this has become the best partner among outsiders. For example, Wu Baige in the Xiangjiang period liked to use Zhou Runfa, and Wang Jing liked to use Zhou Xingchi in his early films. Feng pants like to use Ge You is the same.

There are also some actors who often have the same partner in several plays, also known as the golden partner.

The most famous one is of course the collaboration between Zhou Xingchi and Wu Mengda!

However, Wu Jianye's movies have never had a so-called golden partner. The actors in almost every movie are different, except for He Qing and Wang Zhiwen who were used successively in "New Dragon Inn" and "The World of Chu Xing". "Legend of the New White Snake" and "Chu Xing's World" used Chen Hong one after another. Other times, it is rare to see repeated actors in his movies.

But this time "Eternal Night" has several more actors who have worked with Wu Jianye, such as Fang Shu, who everyone is familiar with, as well as Zhang Hanyu, Liu Yijun and others.

But now everyone recognizes that Wu Jianye's best partner is Zhao Fei!

As Wu Jianye's royal photographer, Zhao Fei participated in all of Wu Jianye's movies, even Wu Jianye's "Ghost Love" and "Jurassic Park" shot in Hollywood were also shot by Zhao Fei of.

In fact, Zhao Fei is fully capable of staying in Hollywood after filming "Ghosts" and "Jurassic Park".

But according to what Zhao Fei said, even if there are too many restrictions on making movies in Hollywood, it's not interesting, but it's interesting to film with Lao Wu!
What Wu Jianye meant was that he was simply too lazy to change the environment!
Of course, what many people don't know is that after finishing the two Hollywood movies, Zhao Fei's salary as a photographer at Wu Jianye's place has always been Hollywood standards!
In other words, among the domestic actors and directors, apart from Wu Jianye, Zhao Fei's social status is actually the highest.

It is simply unimaginable for ordinary people that a photographer's worth exceeds that of a popular star.

It is precisely because of this price that other domestic directors can't afford Zhao Fei at all. Except for some directors with good relationships, Zhao Fei will come out, and they only get friendship prices.

When Wu Jianye was discussing the shooting plan with Zhao Fei and others, Guan Hu also led Liu Xiaojiang to start arranging the positions of the extras.

In fact, the assistant director of the movie "Eternal Night" is not only Guan Hu, but also other assistant directors, but Guan Hu is the first assistant director and has the most power.

The ensemble performers of the first scene have already reached hundreds, and they will be scattered in various shops in Liangren County, as well as pedestrians on the street.

At this time, Liu Xiaojiang had completely stopped participating in the work of group performances, and began to concentrate on the management of group performances.

He doesn't need to appear in the usual crew. In the current group performance guild, there are already group leader positions. Most of them are a group leader with a dozen group performers, just like a manager in the entertainment industry. It's the same with more than a dozen actors, and each group leader also has a few well-qualified group performers.

This time, Wu Jianye's new movie used too many group actors, and Liu Xiaojiang knew that without Wu Jianye's support, he would not have the influence to create this group performance guild, so it was all Everything is done by myself.

This kind of behavior fell into the eyes of those group performers because of Wu Jianye's influence, and at the same time it was because of Dandan.

Dandan can become a character with lines in Wu Jianye's new movie, which is enviable to many extras.

But where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Even now that Liu Xiaojiang is in charge of the entire group performance guild, there will be people spreading gossip.

For example, the most outrageous thing now is that someone is spreading rumors that there is a relationship between Wu Jianye and Dandan.

But this kind of voice is still too small, Wu Jianye doesn't even know it, it is more popular in the small circle of group performances, so Liu Xiaojiang and Dandan naturally heard it.

But Liu Xiaojiang knew what happened, so he didn't say anything, and he didn't take it seriously.

It's just that I don't know if Liu Xiaojiang can still accept such scandals when there are more and more gossip magazines in China in the future.

In fact, there are already a batch of such magazines in China. Although there are not many, they are all concentrated in the south. However, since the wind has blown, it will definitely not stop.

Wu Jianye had heard about this a long time ago, otherwise the matter between him and Liu Juemin would not have been known to everyone.

If in Xiangjiang, Wu Jianye could control the throat of Xiangjiang's media, but in fact, he did not have that much control over the development of domestic media.

Most of the domestic magazines are backed by units with national brands, and it is too difficult to control. At the same time, because of the vast territory of the country, even if they control a certain place, there is no way to control the entire domestic media power.

It can only be said that relying on the capital behind it, it is not easy to achieve a certain degree of control.

We still have to wait slowly for the arrival of the domestic Internet era, although everyone said at that time that there are no secrets at all in front of the Internet.

But I forgot that at that time, most of the domestic Internet companies were in the hands of individuals, and it was much easier to control the current newspapers and magazines.

For example, the trending searches at that time could be bought or removed by spending money. As long as your money is in place, there is nothing you can't do.

The most important thing is that by that time, the major Internet portals in China, as well as Penguin in the future, etc., who said it might not be certain!

"Director Wu, the extras are already in place!" After arranging the extras, Guan Hu came to Wu Jianye.

"How are the leading actors doing their make-up?" Wu Jianye asked.

"It's over soon!" At this time, the stylist in the crew also came over and said.

As the stylist for the new film, Wu Jianye recruited two teachers, Wang Xizhong and Yang Shuyun, who were in charge of "A Dream of Red Mansions".

Among them, Mr. Yang Shuyun is known as the best comber in the world, and he is especially good at costume styling in the industry.

Since last year, the two teachers were invited by Wu Jianye, and I also had an in-depth chat with the two teachers about my shooting concept. After several draft changes, I finally decided on the shape of the movie "Eternal Night".

"Okay, ready to shoot!"

Wu Jianye stood up, and with an order, the entire production crew started to run immediately!
