China Entertainment: Gao Yanei wants to be the best actor

There is an old saying that goes well:
Interlaced like a mountain!
In fact, Gao Fei has never understood the relationship between film and television special effects and animation production.

After all, the special effects in domestic TV dramas in recent years are almost the same as those in cartoons.

Therefore, for a long time, Gao Fei thought that the same group of people did animation and film and television special effects.

It wasn't until more and more films were made later that Gao Fei gradually realized that although there are large areas of intersection between animation and film and television special effects, they each have their own areas.

In short, there is me in you, and you in me.

This is why many animators can do film and television special effects, and film and television special effects artists sometimes participate in animation films.

For this reason, after learning that Gao Fei had acquired Digital Domain, he was happiest than the animation film studios under Dream Valley Pictures.

From "Big Fish and Begonia", "The Return of the Great Sage" to "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World".

Several animation directors, counting one by one, rushed to Zhouyi Building at the first time, lest Gao Fei forget that they were still there.

However, the reason why Jiaozi and others are so anxious is mainly because of the software patent issue in the field of special effects production.

Technically speaking, the level of top domestic special effects artists is not bad.

After all, there are actually many special effects production experts who have returned from Hollywood in China.

However, special effects production is different from movies. It cannot be supported by one person or a few people alone.

Because you don’t have a patent for some special effects software, so even if you use it, you can’t see it.

And this is not a problem of one or two software, but a problem of special effects production ecology.

To know a Hollywood special effects movie, more than 50 kinds of professional software are often used in the post-production process of special effects.

For example, Cameron's "Avatar" that swept the world a few years ago had a production cost of 2.37 million U.S. dollars, of which the special effects production cost accounted for 1.5 million U.S. dollars.

Special effects funds account for nearly 60% of the total investment.

This is also the reason why a group of unknown people starred in such a large investment movie.

Come on, I really don't need the fame of an actor to support the scene.

Secondly, it is also because the producer really has no money.

At least the patrons don't dare to let Cameron spend a lot of money anymore, otherwise they will collectively go to the San Fernando Valley to sell their ass.

But then again, I fell asleep, although special effects funds account for an increasing proportion of Hollywood movies.

But the price to pay is also staggering.

For example, for a workstation-level computer configuration worth hundreds of thousands, special effects companies often buy hundreds of them at every turn.

In this way, there is often no way to eat the special effects work of the next movie.

For example, the post-production special effects of "Avatar" was led by Digital Domain, joined forces with 48 special effects companies, hired 1858 special effects personnel, and built a huge rendering factory.

Thousands of workstations, working day and night and rendering for more than 250 days, have just completed all the special effects work.

Therefore, the arduous work of special effects rendering far exceeds any link in the film production process.

If it weren't for this, there would be no news that special effects blockbusters frequently exploded in Hollywood, but special effects companies frequently went bankrupt.

Of course, now those American devils have also learned to be smart.

Because of the acquisition of Digital Domain, Gao Fei also heard about the movement there.

I heard that recently, a group of small and medium-sized Hollywood special effects companies have begun to try to outsource the rendering business, which is the most arduous work and the highest labor cost.

To put it simply, it is to imitate the industrial groups in the United States and transfer labor-intensive industries out.

In this way, they can rely on their special effects software patents to do the easiest work and get the most money.

And their strategy has actually paid off.

At present, in the international arena, the foundry special effects market is basically Ah San, with Huaxia and Bangzi dividing the world.

Southeast Asian countries with lower labor costs have also faintly shown their interest in this market.

But in general, China still has the most special effects foundries at the moment.

And this is actually the underlying logic for Gao Fei to let Digital Domain develop its training business.

After all, no matter how good the technology is, the trained people must have jobs, right?
Otherwise, no matter how strong Digital Domain is, no matter how many honors it has, it may not be able to open up the special effects training market.

But then again, the reason why Gao Fei asked Digital Domain to develop a training section actually hides a very important purpose.

That is to use special effects training to reduce the labor cost of Digital Domain in the process of special effects production in a disguised form.

Because the trainees trained by Digital Domain are equivalent to their non-staff employees.

Once they have a big job, they can come to them as soon as they are called, and they can do it as soon as they come!
This prevents the company from spending money to support a group of post-production special effects artists during the off-season.

So after listening to his thoughts, Gao Fei directly sent this group of people to Jiang Hong's side.

After all, most of the people like Jiaozi had done a lot of side jobs before making animated films.

Many of them have been in the circle of game production, and even used to be the backbone members of some game studios.

In this way, how could Gao Fei, who had plucked the wild goose, give up this opportunity.

So it was obvious that they came to ask for money and people, but these animation directors were dragged by Jiang Hong to do coolies in such a daze.

I have to say that Gao Fei is becoming more and more inappropriate in terms of being inappropriate!
……

In other words, I don't know if it was stimulated by Gao Fei's words at the racecourse.

Ning Hao originally wanted to rest for a few months after filming "Heart Blossoms on the Road", but Gao Fei's speculation aroused his fighting spirit, and it was rare for a while to get excited, and he kept talking about what to shoot Science fiction blockbuster.

Although he didn't even have the most basic idea for a script, it didn't stop Ning Hao from pretending to be aggressive in front of Gao Fei and others.

Needless to say, Gao Fei was really surprised by his idea.

We must know that he has long wanted to expand Zhouyi's film genre, but he has not found a suitable project.

So as soon as Ning Hao started a conversation, Gao Fei immediately stood up for him.

For a while, loads of good words were poured on him, until the end, Ning Hao was embarrassed.

After all, he hadn't written off his "sci-fi blockbuster" yet, and Gao Fei called him a master director who established a school.

This... No matter how thick-skinned I can't bear it!

So Ning Hao, who originally just wanted to put on a show in front of Gao Fei, was stuck on the ladder and couldn't get up and down.

As a result, Ning Hao was only thinking about sci-fi movies until he reunited with China Film's investigation team.

Such a situation made Xing Na laugh.

After all, she knows Ning Hao's temper best.

If Gao Fei hadn't forced him, then Ning Hao might have been lazy for a long time!

You must know that when it comes to fishing, Ning Hao is at the ashes level!

Of course, Ning Hao is not the only one who stands up.

After that internal discussion meeting, Liu Yifei finally stopped being salty fish.

Zhao Liying gave her a good start, which made Liu Yifei finally stop sitting at home and wait for the script to come to her door, and decided to take the initiative.

But let alone, although the influence of leading film and television companies is usually invisible and intangible.

But once Zhouyi's artists actively search for them, there are still far more opportunities than others.

Just like Liu Yifei, who found a good book by accident under the recommendation of a friend.

……

"The whole book is really good! Really!"

"If Nana hadn't recommended it to me, I would have never thought that there would be such a person as Xiong Dun."

Early the next morning, when Gao Fei just arrived at the company.

Liu Yifei rushed to his office in a hurry, and talked to Gao Fei for a long time, trying to persuade him to agree to the project of "Get Out, Tumor".

Seeing what she said, Gao Fei immediately spread his hands helplessly and said:

"Then you have to show me the script, what's the use of just listening to you!"

"If you don't give me the notebook, how can I set up a project?"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Yifei suddenly realized that the script was still in her hands, so she quickly handed it to Gao Fei.

Seeing this, Gao Fei shook his head speechlessly, then opened the script and read it silently.

The script is not long, and Gao Fei finished it in less than 10 minutes.

But after reading the script, Gao Fei frowned and thought about it for half an hour.

how to say……

As Liu Yifei said, "Get Out, Tumor Man" is indeed a rare and good book.

Of course, the most touching part of this book is actually Xiong Dun.

Because this book is adapted from Xiong Dun's comic of the same name "Get Out, Tumor".

Its general content mainly tells the story of Xiong Dun, who is suffering from cancer, and still laughs at his life in the days of fighting against the disease.

To be honest, after reading the information behind the script, Gao Fei had a hard time imagining how the girl named Xiong Dun drew such an optimistic caricature under the torture of illness!

You know she has non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma will be very painful in the later stage.

Thinking of this, Gao Fei couldn't help shaking his head with emotion.

Ashamed?Still admire?
Gao Fei didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment!
However, after confirming that the script was indeed feasible, Gao Fei also discovered an important problem.

So he pressed his right hand on the script immediately, looked at Liu Yifei on the sofa with searching eyes and said:

"Have you ever thought that if you want to play Xiong Dun... then you will have to shave your head during filming."

Even Liu Yifei is a veteran artist of Zhouyi.

But once it comes to film and television production, Gao Fei will not give in.

After all, once he is done with quality control, the quality of Zhou Yi's film and television dramas will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, the scheme of disguising a bald head by means of special effects makeup does not exist at all in Gao Fei.

It's just that Liu Yifei didn't hesitate or fear when she heard the words, she nodded solemnly and said:

"Don't worry, this is not a problem."

Seeing what she said, Gao Fei remembered that Liu Yifei had always had a deep obsession with shaving her head.

Although I don't know why she has such weird thoughts, it is clear that the problem of shaving her head is not a problem for Liu Yifei at all.

Thinking of this, Gao Fei nodded immediately, so he skipped this point and continued:

"That's fine, if you can accept shaving your head, then you can give it a try."

"But let me remind you first, this kind of role is not so easy to play."

"Although the character Xiong Dun is optimistic, she is not the kind of heartless joking."

"You must know that there is great terror between life and death. She can face life and death optimistically. There must be courage and faith far beyond ordinary people's imagination."

"So, it's not so easy to perform her essence."

"You'd better be mentally prepared!"

As soon as Gao Fei said this, Liu Yifei couldn't help being silent, because she really didn't think so deeply before.

Therefore, after listening to Gao Fei's words, Liu Yifei was not only a little hesitant.

But after a moment of silence, Liu Yifei's eyes gradually became firmer.

"I see!"

"Tomorrow, I will go to a hospital to experience it on the spot."

"Ten days if one day fails, half a year if one month fails."

"I can definitely do it!"

Seeing what she said, Gao Fei immediately had nothing to say.

After all, this is indeed an effective and very feasible method.

You must know that actors of the older generation in the past would experience life before filming.

As short as a few days, as long as several months.

Anyway, actors at that time would do this as long as they had time.

Only as the domestic film and television industry became more and more popular, these old habits were gradually forgotten.

Of course, it is not that there are no actors in the circle who do this.

For example, Gong Li, her habit of filming is to spend 2 to 3 months to experience life after receiving the book, and then spend 3 to 4 months to act in movies.

That's why her film output has not been high, and often not a single film will be released in a year.

But to be honest, experiencing life is really helpful to actors.

Seeing that Liu Yifei has achieved this, Gao Fei simply said after thinking for a moment:

"Okay, then half a year later!"

"When I finish filming "Fireworks in the Day", I think your side should be almost ready."

Seeing that Gao Fei finally nodded, Liu Yifei smiled broadly.

It's just that it's her first time as a film producer, so there's still a lot she doesn't know.

So after rejoicing for a while, Liu Yifei didn't care about chatting with Gao Fei anymore, turned around and left in a hurry.

Seeing this situation, Gao Fei couldn't help but smile smugly.

Sure enough, women should not be too idle.

How nice to arrange it like him!

Let these strong women get busy, and naturally no one will trouble him!

Thinking of this, Gao Fei couldn't help but praise his wit.

It's just that compared to Liu Yifei and Zhao Liying, Yang Mi's luck is obviously worse.

Although she also wants to try to be a producer like Zhao Liying.

But God failed to fulfill people's wishes.

She searched for a long time but did not come across a decent movie project.

Yang Mi was so angry that he had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, and began to search for novels suitable for adaptation into TV dramas in the company's copyright library.

……

Not to mention how introverted these three aunts of Zhouyi are.

After Gao Fei traveled back and forth between the racecourse and Zhouyi Building for more than a month, he soon joined the team again.

But this time, Gao Fei's filming location is a bit special.

Because the location chosen by the director happened to be Gao Fei's hometown - Bingcheng!
In the words of the director, Bingcheng's style is more in line with the movie.

Especially the ice city in winter, it is simply the background city that came out of the script.

To be honest, when Gao Fei heard the director Diao Yinan give this reason, he really didn't know whether to thank him or beat him up.

After all, a city that perfectly matches the "heavy taste" elements such as "adultery", "love", "destroying corpses" and "throwing corpses" does not sound like a good place!

Of course, the ice city in winter is really not a good place.

We must know that since the meteorological record of Harbin, the temperature has reached -52.3°C at the lowest temperature.

And even in normal years, the outdoor temperature of Harbinger in winter is mostly around minus 30 degrees Celsius.

Therefore, when the general southerners first came to the ice city, most of them would be frozen into a lady of the family-the door could not be opened, the second door could not be opened, and they could only hide in the house and rely on the heating to survive!
Even if they resisted the cold outdoor temperature, Bingcheng still had tricks to deal with them.

Because Bingcheng is located in the center of Northeast Asia, there is a strong winter monsoon every winter.

This wind often blows from Siberia, carrying a biting chill.

The fastest wind speed can reach 60 kilometers per hour, or even higher.

In this kind of wind, the cold feeling will be stronger and it will be more difficult for people to walk.

To put it bluntly, if a girl is lighter, she will be blown away by the wind!
For example, when she first arrived in Bingcheng, Gui Lunmei almost suffered a big loss because of her carelessness.

If the manager beside her hadn't stopped her in time, she would have been blown headlong by the sudden gust of wind!

Compared to Gui Lunmei, Gao Fei is much more relaxed.

After all, it comes from the northwest wind in Siberia. He has been used to it since he was a child.

Just to be honest, it should be cold even if you get used to it.

And when he thought of the whole film, the entire 260 scenes had to be filmed in the Ice City, and it was filmed in the coldest time of the Ice City, Gao Fei had the urge to kick Diao Yinan.

Diao Yinan didn't care about it.

Even though he was frozen like a dog, he still couldn't help laughing and teasing Gao Fei:
"As the old saying goes, a son never thinks his mother ugly, and a dog never thinks his family poor."

"Mr. Gao, this is your hometown."

"It's so hard for you to go home, it's fine if you don't feel the joy of returning to your hometown, why are you still in it!"

Hearing this, Gao Fei immediately rolled his eyes angrily.

"Nonsense, if you really don't dislike it, then those Northeast people in Hainan every winter are ghosts?"

As soon as this remark came out, Diao Yinan was speechless immediately.

……

August 11th, ten o'clock in the morning.

Ice City, Derry Community.

After a simple opening ceremony, "Fireworks in the Day" finally officially started filming.

It's just this first scene that makes Gao Fei quite painful.

Because this opening scene is the scene where Zhang Zili and his wife have sex in the hotel.

It was also after this applause that his daughter-in-law completely left him.

Let's not talk about the meaning of such a plot, this scene alone is very embarrassing.

Because Gao Fei and the actor Ni Jingyang who played his wife, that is, the heroine "Pei Pei" in "The Sky", can count the things they said in private.

It can be said that the unfamiliar cannot be more unfamiliar.

Therefore, if two men and women who have only known each other for less than three days are allowed to make sex scenes, one can imagine how uncomfortable both parties will be.

But Diao Yinan just stubbornly believes that the current state of the two is just right.

Because Zhang Zili and his wife are the most familiar strangers now.

Even if the two ended up having a breakup, it was a condition his wife had to agree to in order to get rid of him.

So Ni Jingyang's alienation towards Gao Fei is exactly what Diao Yinan wants.

What he wanted was that... the feeling that the two of them were clearly doing the most intimate thing, but seemed to be thousands of miles away.

Only in this way can the image of Zhang Zili be established at the beginning of the movie:
He is a middle-aged man with strong desires!

This kind of confusion between desire and reality, as well as the helplessness of being forced to suppress in the end, is what Diao Yinan wants.

It can be said that at the beginning of the movie, he has already revealed the whole core of the movie.

Seeing that Diao Yinan had said that, Gao Fei didn't say anything more.

As for Ni Jingyang, it was even harder to say anything.

So after the two briefly went through the scene, they went to bed with unfamiliar and skillful movements.

It has to be said that Ni Jingyang deserves to be born as a female model, with a pretty body and a smooth body, and her figure is really good.

As soon as Gao Fei got started, he noticed the delicate body beneath him.

Of course, he couldn't do anything under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Therefore, based on past experience, they can only act out a false appearance of intimacy without touching the bottom line.

It's just that the bed scenes in literary films are different from those in other film and television dramas.

Some directors ask for poetry, some directors pay attention to romance, and so on.

Diao Yinan's presence in this scene is a naked desire.

So it was like this, Gao Fei was NG for the first time because the sex scene was not rough enough.

This made Gao Fei really speechless, after all, he didn't want to go into the sea.

In the end, Ni Jingyang took the initiative to ask Gao Fei to come as soon as possible, all for the sake of the show.

Only then did Gao Fei act presumptuously. Although the provocative Ni Jingyang looked conflicted, he still couldn't help panting.

Seeing this situation, Diao Yinan behind the monitor nodded in satisfaction.

An imbalance of desires!This is how he wants to feel...
