From traffic to movie star

Chapter 196 "Detective Chinatown" Filming Starts

In May, there were several major events in the Chinese film circle.

"Once Upon a Time" frantically refunded tickets, causing the dissatisfaction of the theaters to stand up and criticize one after another, but because the film schedule has been eaten up, it is difficult to withdraw in a short time, which made the box office of this controversial movie rise steadily.

In the first week alone, the box office of "Once Upon a Time" broke [-] million.

According to industry estimates, the total box office of this movie can exceed at least 12 billion, making it the second largest box office movie in China.

Relying on countless wastelands in theaters, screenings in rotation, sucking the blood of theaters, maliciously occupying the lineup, sacrificing other movies of the same period, and the second place in film history piled up by crazy marketing.

There are constant mocking voices on the Internet.

In the end, Chen Ying couldn't resist the pressure and led the production team to hold an apology press conference, expressing that he would investigate the matter to the end.

But no one knows exactly who made the ticket refund incident.

Then wait for Chen Ying to explain to the film bureau in person. The incident of malicious ticket refunds has become so big that the officials finally came to investigate and collect evidence in person.

Because of the locking of the ticket refund function this time, the ticket group has complained a lot from the customer group. Although it issued an apology statement and corresponding compensation afterwards, it still received a large number of complaints.

On the other hand, Panda Tickets, seized the opportunity to seize the market cake, and got nearly one billion in financing.

And Medallion Media also used this to squeeze into the first-line echelon of Huaxia Film Company.

People were surprised to find that Wei Xun not only flourished in the entertainment industry, but also entered the capital circle quietly, and also made a lot of achievements.

But no matter how amazed the netizens who saw the news, Wei Xun himself had already boarded the flight to country T very low-key at this time.

His destination is Yaowarat Road in Bangkok, which is also known as Chinatown.

Unlike the current domestic climate where pedestrians are shivering in the cold while wearing down jackets, the scorching sun here in country T is a well-deserved holiday destination.

After Wei Xun came out of the airport, Bao Qiang drove over to pick him up in person.

Probably in order to get used to the role of 'Tang Ren' as soon as possible, Bao Qiang was tanned on purpose, wearing shorts and a floral shirt, with messy hair and a gold tooth inlaid. Tang Ren himself, the number one detective in Chinatown.

"The materials here are much cheaper than in China. Qian Rui recently recruited a group of group performers from country T, and they will fully cooperate with us when the time comes."

While driving, Bao Qiang carefully explained the preparations of the film crew: "The nightclub and the vegetable market are the two key filming areas that have been notified. Recently, everyone knows that there is a Chinese film crew with a lot of money who is stupid and rich. When the time comes, the nightclub will be reserved. , Drinks are free for the audience that day, all kinds of things are smashed in the vegetable market, and anyone who is smashed will be given double compensation."

The story of "Detective Chinatown" is not complicated.

It is about Qin Feng, a talented stuttering young man, who was sent by his grandmother to T country to find his distant cousin, Tang Ren, who is known as "Chinatown's No.

However, Tang Ren was unreliable. On the first day of his eldest nephew's arrival, not only did he forget to pick up someone because he was playing mahjong, but after picking up someone, he took the ignorant little boy directly to the nightclub to have fun.

After a night of debauchery, Tang Ren inexplicably became a murderer. At the same time, he was caught in a gold bar theft case, chased by the police, and hunted down by gangsters.

Qin Feng, who suffered for no reason, had to flee to the end of the world with Tang Ren. On the way to escape, they decided to join hands to retrieve the lost gold, find out the murderer, and clear themselves of the charges.

An unscrupulous crime-solving movie with humorous points and interlocking links.

Wei Xun was wearing a thick down jacket when he came here, but now he has changed into shorts and short sleeves at the airport, and a pair of black sunglasses, looking casual and handsome.

Hearing what Bao Qiang said, he smiled and asked, "Have all the actors arrived?"

"We're here. An Shi has been staying in the hotel for a week. She looks like a pretty reliable actress and doesn't have much to do. The rest of the important supporting roles have also joined the group one after another. They can play your play Mr. Wei. They dare not neglect."

Bao Qiang finished explaining the matter here, and then asked: "Then Mr. Wei, are you going to the hotel to rest now, or go directly to the film crew?"

Wei Xun thought for a while, and said: "Go to the crew, set the makeup first, and start shooting if there is no problem."

Anyway, the filming of this drama is not strenuous, so I just relax while filming.

Half an hour later, Wei Xun came to the set.

Qian Rui, the producer of "Tang Detective" newly recruited by Medal Media, came out to greet him, and said with a smile, "Mr. Wei, you've worked hard all the way."

Wei Xun took off his sunglasses, looked around, looked at the studio that had started to operate normally, and said with a smile: "It's nothing hard, it's just a few hours of flying, old money, well done."

Qian Rui laughed and said, "It should."

"I'll fix my makeup first, and take a scene to test my feelings. The rest of the actors are not in a hurry. Let them be notified. There will be a script seminar on the set at night, and they will all be there on time."

Wei Xun walked into the studio while talking, and continued: "Bao Qiang, take me to the dressing room."

Qin Feng in "Tang Detective" has an uncomplicated character design, with a sunny and handsome appearance and a kind heart. His personality seems to be ignorant and timid, but he also has his own persistence and stubbornness, and he also has a little inferiority complex because of stuttering.

During the filming of "Wolf Warrior", Wei Xun was a bit rough in the sun, but after more than half a month of intentional maintenance, his condition has been adjusted back, and thanks to the makeup artist, he looks pretty good after finishing the makeup.

Different from Leng Feng's perverted and thorny straight man image, Qin Feng is a proper little fresh meat.

Jeans with a white shirt, and a pair of headphones hanging around his neck, with a fresh and gentle temperament, very typical of the boy next door.

When Wei Xun with such a 'cream image' came out of the dressing room, all the surroundings looked at him, and the atmosphere on the set seemed a bit weird.

But Wei Xun himself didn't notice the abnormality, instead he said with great interest: "Bao Qiang, let's take a photo with fixed makeup, and try it out after walking for a while."

"Okay, come here now."

Bao Qiang responded from a distance, and didn't go over immediately, but glanced at all kinds of people in the crew, and said to the producer Qian Rui: "Brother Qian, you have to be tight in the future, this place in T country is a bit evil." Well, with the face of our director, no matter male or female, I'm afraid everyone misses him, I see the group of local extras you recruited, and now I can't wait to get my eyes glued to Director Wei."

Qian Rui nodded immediately: "Don't worry, Director Bao, I know this well."

So Bao Qiang patted him on the shoulder, then trotted up to Wei Xun, grinning and said: "Director Wei, which scene shall we go first, I will let the scene director prepare."

So, on Wei Xun's first day in country T, "Tang Detective" quietly and officially started filming in this foreign country.

　Ps:

　　Thanks for the suggestion from the boss of 'Ether Poison'. In the previous chapter, regarding the equity distribution of Panda Tickets, except for Medal Media, the other three parties only have the right to share dividends, supervise and advise, and the right to operate is in the hands of Wei Xun, which has been corrected.

　　The status has not been recovered for the past two days, the plot is not going well, and the update is out of sight. I will adjust it as soon as possible, sorry.
