The sudden surprise almost made Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV blink.

It's also thanks to them that they didn't want to offend Lu Chen, so they listened to Lu Chen's suggestion and didn't make any edits to the TV series.

If it does.

After that, they will definitely be blacklisted by Lu Chen.

domestic,
The income of the TV station basically depends on the placement of advertisements.

According to their previous ideas.

Is preparing to inject "You Who Came from the Star" into a 30-episode TV series.

Think of it as charging a few more days of advertising revenue.

Absolutely guaranteed.

However, this proposal was quickly rejected.

They didn't want to offend Lu Chen, the cash cow.

Lu Chen is not joking, he really has the ability to let a TV station enter a dark hour.

It is also very simple to operate.

Just arrange for TV dramas to air at the same time as them.

Lu Chen's drama will be broadcast at the same time.

Other dramas can only drink some soup.

Speaking of which, it's not unreasonable for Jiaxing Media to be so strong.

They even threatened them with a blacklist. If the other party wasn't Lu Chen, they would have already slapped them with a slap from Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV...

Seeing the results of "You Who Came from the Stars", many TV stations beat their chests instantly!
If I knew this drama would be popular in Korea, I would have won the premiere rights even if I paid a higher price!
They dared to bet that if the price had been raised a bit more.

Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV will definitely give up.

pity.

It's too late to regret now.

What's more interesting is that as the plot progresses, Yin Qianyi, the heroine played by Liu Shishi, actually drives the development of a certain industry chain with a line "It's snowing, how can there be no fried chicken and beer?"

That's right, that's the line.

No one expected that this simple line would make the business of many fried chicken and beer shops in China explode. For this reason, some related companies began to rush to contact Lu Chen and Liu Shishi, wanting to invite them to serve food. Endorsement!

The endorsement fee is naturally very scary.

After this TV series, Lu Chen and Liu Shishi's worth has skyrocketed.

Lu Chen stopped talking.

As the big boss of Jiaxing Media, his net worth has already exceeded 10 billion.

On the other hand, Liu Shishi, in addition to endorsement invitations, they have also received a lot of drama appointments, including some major domestic productions. Lu Chen has not interfered with this. Liu Shishi is free to accept any drama he wants, as long as it is not The kind of script that looks like a bad movie will do——

Tang Ren's first sister.

And she was the first sister who surpassed all the previous first sisters.

The current Liu Shishi is a veritable first-line celebrity in the country. With the current status of the two, they are the first sisters of any medium-sized entertainment company in China.

As for Tang Lei,

This guy is still the second child of ten thousand years.

Ever since Lu Chen stepped into the main drama, this guy has always been the second child of ten thousand years.

His fans left messages on Lu Chen's Weibo.

It's time for Tang Lei to take the lead.

This made Lu Chen suddenly feel a little embarrassed.

It seems to be true.

After filming so many dramas, Tang Lei has always been the second child in ten thousand years.

Before, I was not qualified and couldn't afford it.

Now words.

Should be able to carry it.

As the first brother of Jiaxing Media.

There should also be a masterpiece.

As the first brother of a medium-sized entertainment company, he always plays some male second.

It seems a little unreasonable.

Without one or two representative works, the position of the first brother seems to be unstable.

At the same time, it seems too cold.

Think of Lu Chen here.

Decided to arrange a big production for Tang Lei.

……

Two days later.

Tang Lei and Liu Shishi from "You Who Came from the Stars" received a notification from Lu Chen just after returning to China.

"Eight Hundred" will start soon.

With such a good opportunity, of course Lu Chen would think of the two of them.

Such an opportunity is rare.

Not only is it difficult for Lu Chen, but it is also very difficult for Liu Shishi and Tang Lei.

As for the gift film, regardless of the size of the role, many domestic stars, including some first-line big names, and many movie kings, are fighting for it.

Try to show your face in this show.

Various entertainment companies are also making efforts to get roles from Jiaxing Media.

Regardless of size.

However, there are still many people who cannot squeeze in.

So why do these actors have to squeeze in?
In fact, the reason is relatively simple. First of all, celebrities basically do not lack opportunities to make money.

What they care more about is their own image. It may be more useful to act in this kind of gift film than to do ten times of charity.

In addition, almost all the people who initiate this kind of movie shooting are political elites or industry leaders. When all the big star directors gather together, they may get to know everyone after making a movie, which will definitely be of great benefit to their future development. There's absolutely nothing wrong with showing your face.

So the major actors squeezed in one after another.

Tomorrow I will go to the crew of "Eight Hundred".

Take a shower at night.

Liu Shishi packed Lu Chen's luggage in loose pajamas.

"I heard that it's colder in Shanghai. I prepared sweaters and pants for you. Remember to wear them when the time comes."

Lu Chen nodded.

There is the filming location of "Eight Hundred" in Shanghai. Lu Chen never expected that there would be such a cultural attraction in Shanghai.

It meets the film needs of "Eight Hundred".

When Jiang Yu contacted the government over there, he learned that "Eight Hundred" chose this battle.

Without even thinking about it, I directly agreed to Lu Chen and the others' shooting.

"If necessary, let me know in advance!"

Lu Chen nodded.

Liu Shishi is also going to join the crew, but it will be a few days later.

And Lu Chen didn't have time to go home until the filming ended.

"Remember to call."

Liu Shishi packed Lu Chen's luggage, and she was so emotional that they would see each other soon.

this time.

Liu Shishi was not idle either.

"You Who Came From The Star" was a huge success, and several endorsements are waiting for her to film.

……

"Eight Hundred" was not easy to shoot.

Lu Chen was mentally prepared.

A good war film must be anti-war and must show the joys and sorrows of ordinary people.

Saving Private Ryan is the paradigmatic version.

Under the background of World War II, a group of ordinary soldiers from Ugly Country landed in Normandy.

Although they have undergone several months of military training, everything on the battlefield has to be adapted again.

They get scared, they get seasick and throw up, they even cry.

They smiled at the camera one second, and were headshot the next second.

But they still have to rush forward, this is a military mission, and they cannot retreat.

War is not a dinner party, blood must be shed and sacrificed.

War is cruel.

The same situation exists in "Tou Ming Zhuan", but the limitation of "Tou Ming Zhuan" is that it is a star-oriented movie, which over-amplifies the brotherhood, and everyone's personality is too obvious and lacks arc.

The ideas of grassroots soldiers are just embellishments, and they don't spend a lot of space to show them.

Many of these grassroots soldiers have only ordinary wishes, such as finishing the battle early to visit their parents ("Saving Private Ryan"), such as getting a Medal of Honor that can be exchanged for whiskey ("1917"), such as "robbing money, robbing mothers, robbing women" "("Voting Certificate"), and even for Xinyang ("Blood Battle Hacksaw Ridge").

But behind all wars is politics.

Their fate is not controlled by themselves, but by the so-called "overall situation". They are all chess pieces on the battlefield, and some are even "abandoned pieces".

The greatest significance of "Eight Hundred" is also to show the heroism of the middle and lower class soldiers of the national surname on the big screen in the mainland. Not all the national surname soldiers are intriguing like the previous "Tunnel Warfare" and "Mine Warfare", greedy for life and afraid of death .

They all have families, but they are military.

Although the fighting power is indeed not as good as that of the Japanese army, even the elite of the national army, it is indeed "worthy of a battle", shrouded in horse leather, without complaint or regret.

As for the three main characters.

Wang Qianyuan, the abductee, Zhang Yi, the old abacus, and Jiang Wu, the melon counselor.

They are small people, they are stragglers, they are also a mirror, showing the heroism and respectability of the soldiers of the national army.

Lu Chen didn't intend to modify it either.

He also likes to photograph the personal style of small people.

He will even spend a lot of space in the movie, showing the changes of the three people before and after.

Inspired by the mainstream soldiers, it only took a few days for them to go from being greedy for life and fearing death to killing themselves for benevolence.

"Eight Hundred" uses the magic city as the background, and uses the world of Suzhou Creek as a comparison, with heaven on one side and hell on the other.

Here, "the businesswoman doesn't know the hatred of the subjugated country, and she still sings the flowers in the backyard across the river", while there "sacrifices her life for benevolence, and fights to the last soldier".

The people of Modu went from being indifferent at the beginning, to donating money and showing love, to participating in welcoming the soldiers.

As an audience, you will sigh that Shanghai, as the Oriental Paris, is so prosperous at any time, and Shanghai is so beautiful at night.

There is only such a comparison.

Only then will the audience be moved, for example, when the soldiers of the Death Squad jumped down one by one, declaring their hometown names and bombing the Japanese steel plates.

Without the burden of the predecessors, how can you have the "spring warmth and flowers blooming" now.

This is what Lu Chen wants to say through "Eight Hundred".

Some people may think that such a movie is almost meaningless.

But this is what Lu Chen wants to say.

Although Lu Chen knew that filming "Eight Hundred" would be difficult.

But Lu Chen didn't expect the difficulties to come so quickly.

Even if he has become famous recently, it is still difficult for him to gain authority in a crew like "Eight Hundred".

After all, the status of these stars in the arena is here.

Such as Liu Tianwang.

As for who has a higher status in the domestic entertainment industry, Andy Lau or Jackie Chan,

I believe that many people will choose Andy Lau without hesitation.

There is such a saying in the entertainment industry.

One year, one idol, ten years, Jay Chou, one hundred years, Jackie Chan, one thousand years, Andy Lau.

Andy Lau, the spiritual leader of the entertainment circle, can be called the all-around miracle king of Asia.

He can be said to be the greatest milestone in the history of world music, and Jackie Chan cannot compare with him in this respect.

In this life, I can't catch up with such an Andy Lau by riding a rocket.

He has won the No.1 Most Popular Male Singer Award in Asia for seven consecutive times, and his influence has already surpassed the influence of the performing arts industry.

To put it bluntly, Jackie Chan is just an international action superstar.

Internationally famous artist Andy Lau, international music master Andy Lau, Andy Lau is the only artist who has won the National Medal of Honor.

Such a label is enough to say it all.

Identity is here.

Lu Chen really didn't dare to mess around.

The crew is a small entertainment circle, everyone is very realistic and knows who can be offended and who can't be offended.

Few people regard Lu Chen as the boss of the "Eight Hundred" crew, but there are more people who support Andy Lau.

This made Lu Chen feel a little misguided.

Wouldn't it be nice to choose one that is easy to suppress?

The opponent's status is too high.

This also caused other sounds when shooting.

There will even be proposals to revise the script as the filming progresses.

Big-name actors are used to bringing screenwriters into the group, which is a common practice in the industry.

In addition, the Screenwriters Association also arranged for a few people to come in.

Plus Huaying's side.

As a result, there are too many screenwriters on the crew of "Eight Hundred".

This is not Lu Chen's personal crew!

There is no way to say no to these people!

Add play to the big name, and change the play to the big name at any time.

For the Chinese film industry, it is also commonplace.

Many TV dramas and movies have changed their scripts during filming.

There are many reasons.

Among them, the actor's request to add a play is one of them.

There are such people in the "Eight Hundred" crew.

Not Andy Lau.

And others!
A second generation stuffed in from Huaying.

Although Lu Chen and Huaying have disagreements.

But after Han Dong called him, Lu Chen still decided to give him face.

Let them put a few artists in.

What Lu Chen didn't expect was that.

Just a few days after he arrived, he actually wanted him to change the script.

special.

Even Andy Lau has no objections, but you actually told me that the plot of "Eight Hundred" is flawed.

In fact, Andy Lau is not without objections.

He also has a professional queen screenwriter.

We already know the pros and cons of this game.

Still, think of this movie as the script that was selected above.

Didn't say anything.

He didn't say anything, but someone jumped out.

On the seventh day of filming by the crew of "Eight Hundred", that is, when the second-generation scene was about to be filmed.

A screenwriter approached Lu Chen, wanting to add a protagonist to the movie. .

"Director Lu, since Director Lu likes to shoot the personal style of small people, why don't you add a few more people? I don't think the three of them can highlight the personal style of small people. The attitudes of the three change so quickly, and there is not enough in the movie. confession."

Lu Chen looked at the screenwriter with the eyes of a fool.

Why didn't enough explanations be given in the movie?
Because there is no need to explain.

In the face of death, there is such a big change in a few days.

It seemed normal to Lu Chen.

These screenwriters are definitely overfed.

Does this still need to be explained?

But in the eyes of this screenwriter, it is useful.

Lu Chen didn't bother to talk to him, and asked directly, "Dong Han thinks so too?"

"no……"

"If not, you can go."

"Director Lu, this is..."

"I said, you can get out, whoever has an opinion let him come to me in person."

In front of other people, Lu Chen didn't save him any face.

After driving this person away, Lu Chen directly called Zhang Shou, the producer of Huaying, and went straight to the point: "Do you want to change the script?"

Zhang Shou was confused: "No, why did you say that, Director Lu?"

"A screenwriter came over just now and said that he would add a play to the actor you recommended, and felt that there was something wrong with my script!"

Zhang Shou: "..."

"Are you sure you want to change it?" Lu Chen's voice became a little cold.

"of course not…"

Zhang Shou's forehead was dripping with cold sweat.

This is nothing compared to.

At this time, he suddenly had the urge to crush the screenwriter to death.

Can this script be changed randomly?

Even if you want to change it, is it up to you?

At least those people from the Screenwriters Association should be recruited.

You said there was a problem with the script.

Isn't this slapping the Writers Guild in the face?

"Remember, "Eight Hundred" is a war history blockbuster, not a bloody romance film. I am the director, and I have the final say. Anyone who disagrees will get out of the crew."

Zhang Shou opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, but finally said nothing.

As a producer, how could he not understand Lu Chen's intentions.

There are so many bosses in the crew.

With Lu Chen's qualifications, he will definitely not be able to hold back.

It just so happened that no one stood up,

The screenwriter jumped out.

Then he was directly involved.

Pointing at Sang and scolding Huai is not about the second generation at all.

Lu Chen was just stepping on him to make a name for himself on the set.

Of course Zhang Shou was uncomfortable.

But thinking that Lu Chen didn't seem to be mistaken, it was indeed they who took the initiative to deliver it to the door.

He can only bear it.

What should I do if I can't bear it?
Salad.

The previous producer was still sitting on the bench!

Facts have proved that taking Fang Liwei is still very effective.

In an instant, no one in the entire crew dared to betray Lu Chenyang.

of course.

They respect Lu Chen.

Anyone with eyes can see it.

Lu Chen didn't really want to stand up, but he just wanted to tell some actors in the crew.

good for everyone.

Don't just make some moths at every turn.

Lu Chen will not be used to them.

Lu Chen suddenly became irritable.

As a result, many actors are discussing in private:

"Director Lu is so young, he didn't expect to be so majestic."

"Didn't you say that Director Lu is easy to get along with? Why is he like a tyrant on the set now?"

"Let's stand up, our crew has too many masters, if Director Lu doesn't stand up, it will be difficult for the crew to run smoothly."

"Director Lu is too courageous, he dared to directly attack the producer."

"Director Lu is amazing, but it is precisely because of such strict requirements that he can make better films. "Eight Hundred" should be a masterpiece."

The actors' confidence in Lu Chen grew stronger and stronger.

But the screenwriters' opinions on Lu Chen are also getting bigger and bigger.

Because Lu Chen is too domineering.

He was so overbearing that Lu Chen regarded the crew of "Eight Hundred" as Jiaxing Media.

Don't give them a chance to express their opinion at all.

They provided a lot of suggestions for reference, but Lu Chen didn't listen to any of them, and told them to leave.

Can't bear it.

In their opinion, Lu Chen's script is very problematic.

Gotta fix it!
So a group of people took the initiative to discuss with Lu Chen, and tentatively asked if the script could be revised.

"Director Lu, we don't mean to offend your authority, but we simply feel that the script is too distorted."

The screenwriters have also learned to be smart, knowing that they should not be too against Lu Chenlai.

But they really felt that there was something wrong with Lu Chen's script.

"Director Lu, everything you wrote in this script is good. It just portrays the country's army so great and righteous. In order to highlight the sense of tragedy, "Eight Hundred" arranged for several soldiers to jump out of the warehouse one after another with grenades strapped to them. Arrangements were made for one of the soldiers to write a suicide note.

I have to say that watching this group of soldiers go forward and die generously is indeed very visually impactful.

However, the reality is that the death of Chen Shusheng and the Japanese army has already destroyed the Japanese army's attempt to blow up the corner of the Sixing Warehouse. There is no need for follow-up soldiers to jump down one after another. To be honest, this is too unrealistic. Sensational for the sake of sensationalism. "
