China Entertainment: The happiness of being a director is as simple as that

Chapter 115 Finished, the TV series begins to be announced

On the set, Lu Pingan once again carefully calculated the average of all the scenes and shots that have been filmed so far.

Finally came up with a number: 99%.

Putting down the pen, Lu Pingan began to think.

This result may not be enough for a film with Jiang Wen's help.

But there is very little room for change in "The Hunger Platform".

"Hunger Platform" does not have many things that can be changed like "Tuner".

For example, the environmental background can be changed to Southeast Asia, the actor's lines can be replaced with more Chinese stalks, the growth of characters can also be changed to be more delicate, and the scene is wide, so the choice of shots can also be more room for play.

From the beginning, "Hunger Platform" was set to be the same as the original version, using various races and abandoning localization.

In this way, the whole film will not involve the politics, environment, human geography, etc. behind it, and all scenes are confined to the "vertical self-management center (prison)".

In this way, the operating space is directly halved.

The most important thing is that the theme of this film is very straightforward.

So there is very little room for adaptation.

Before Jiang Wen finally only produced the lines and the optimized version of the ending as proof.

Jiang Wen couldn't change the script.

This is not to say that "The Hunger Platform" is great, but that this movie is less like a movie than "The Tuner" or other feature films, and more like a series of experimental films piled up with similes and metaphors.

Characters, lines, and performances are not the most important in this kind of film. No matter how well they are played, they will not have a great impact on the degree of reproduction.

The most important thing is the creativity and structure of this film.

Therefore, there were almost no changes in the film until the finale.

But whether it can surpass in the end depends on the last few shots.

Theoretically, if the last few shots are taken according to the original version, even if they are completely restored, they will not be surpassed in the end.

So if you want to achieve transcendence, maybe hope really has to be placed on Jiang Wen's version of the ending.

Lu Pingan felt that there should be a high probability of surpassing this time.

So next, is the moment when the answer is revealed.

"Every unit is ready."

Following Lu Ping'an's order, a group of various actors in chef uniforms entered the state.

Then Lu Pingan called out to start.

Then Dashan, who had rehearsed many times, began to perform.

He took out a hair from the pudding cake and began to question and compare the little chefs.

Not long after, Lu Pingan yelled click, and then did it again.

over and over again.

A little over an hour later, the original's epilogue is complete.

The degree of reduction is 100%.

The system jumps out and completes the achievement: 99%.

as expected.

After a 15-minute break, Lu Pingan started filming the ending of Jiang Wen's version.

This time, the pudding cake was replaced with a hair cake.

It doesn't matter whether the food is Chinese or Western, what is important is that the food has been changed, which indicates that it is not sent by the protagonist, but after the protagonist, and it may be sent by the latecomers.

Then the filming started again, this time Da Shan was obviously much more proficient.

Same action, same performance.

After half an hour.

Lu Pingan got a result here.

Completion result: 101%!

After filming, Lu Pingan didn't call out for the time being, Jiang Wen asked at this moment: "How is it, do you want to use that version?"

"Use yours!"

Needless to say.

They are all surpassed, so naturally use his.

As for why changing the food will have such a big effect.

Lu Pingan tends to accept Jiang Wen's answer.

He said before: "There are two reasons, one is big and the other is small. The big reason is that I want the story to be more extensible."

This is similar to what Lu Pingan guessed at the beginning.

The whole film extends from the protagonist's single resistance incident to "after the protagonist, there will be successors".

This does give the film a deeper and wider opening to the ending.

In addition to this reason, Jiang Wen also said another small reason: "The small reason is a metaphor. Which country is the cake from?"

Jiang Wen didn't say much.

Lu Pingan didn't ask any more.

In short, if you really want to think about it, it will not do any harm to the film, but it will be a good thing, and it will make the film more "popular".

Or, this ending will be interpreted differently by film critics and netizens in the future.

In any case, there are two things that Lu Ping An is certain of.

One is that there are super rewards this time.

Second, Lu Pingan has already summed up some "surpassing tips".

Asking Jiang Wen to help is not just for rewards, but to learn something.

Before starting filming "The Hunger Platform", Lu Ping'an made a total of 10 films, minus the super rewards obtained by brushing achievements, the only one that surpassed it was the feature film "Tuner" with the help of Jiang Wen.

In some later films, Lu Pingan actually didn't even think about surpassing them.

Being able to restore 90% is already very satisfying for him.

However, with the progress of each shooting, the work in hand became more and more familiar, and the idea of ​​transcendence naturally became more and more vigorous.

Now watching Jiang Wen revise it again, Lu Pingan feels that the next movie can try to surpass it proactively.

"Fix it!"

Following Lu Ping'an's order, everyone at the scene immediately cheered.

A series of messages also appeared in Lu Ping'an's mind.

【Congratulations.】

["Hunger Platform" super rewards: one-time props, time cages to be opened, and the opening period is 6 months (the time-limited props can only be obtained after the work is completely completed), this reward can be superimposed on other super rewards, and can be increased after superimposed use The number of times this reward has been obtained]

Lu Ping'an's eyes lit up. Although he didn't understand what it was, it was definitely not bad.

So you have to watch the clip next!
Fortunately, Lu Pingan had already made an appointment with Zhang Yifan.

With this big bull around, it shouldn't be a big problem to maintain 101%.

. . . . . . .

"Director Ping An, I offer you a toast."

"Lu, it's an honor to be in your movie, I did it."

"Road Director"

At the wrap-up banquet, a group of foreigners spoke standard or broken Mandarin and toasted one by one.

These people have been in China for at least a year, and they are already proficient in the wine table culture, so there is basically no discomfort when drinking.

Among them, Cao Cao was the most active.

Cao Cao's acting skills are not good at this time, and he is just playing tricks in the film, but this guy is a fast learner, and his personality is easy to let go. Even if he only stays on the set for three weeks, everyone is his friend.

In contrast, Duan Long, the protagonist, is much more silent.

However, as a native of New Province, he looks like he can hold a lot of alcohol, so he gets the most care.

Duan Long also knows how to be a human being, but in fact he has a very light drinking capacity, and he will drink numbness after a while.

So at the beginning, I left all the alcohol to Lu Pingan and Jiang Wen.

It made the two of them stand up at first.

After all, this guy's hormonal burst is only a little worse than Jiang Wen's.

After a few drinks, he started shaking.

This surprised Jiang Wen, pretending?

It wasn't until he saw his forehead hit the edge of the table that he was convinced that it was a silver-like wax gun head.

Or Zhang Songwen!

Jiang Wen patted Zhang Songwen on the shoulder.

Zhang Songwen smiled: "Teacher, I respect you."

"That's right!"

After Jiang Wenzi finished drinking, he pointed to Lu Pingan, "Fuck him!"

Zhang Songwen's smiling face went down again
Fortunately, Zhou Yun was present, and Zhou Yun and Jiang Wen already had a little relationship, so she gave her a look after drinking, and Jiang Wen put down the wine glass in his hand, and then looked at the ceiling.

The wrap-up banquet lasted until early in the morning, and it was still a standard set meal. Lu Pingan never saved money on this aspect.

The various expenses of the film came out the next day.

Excluding special effects, the total cost was 220 million.

About 60 more than originally planned.

still alright.

Zhang Yifan arrived in the afternoon, and then entered the late stage of high concentration.

Super rewards cannot slip away in vain because of later events.

Entering the post-production stage, Lu Ping'an's work and rest time became regular again.

Yan Danchen is still filming in Wuhan, and it is said that everything is going well.

Gao Yuanyuan and Liu Qianqian will still contact Lu Pingan, but one will make a phone call and the other will chat on QQ.

It was said that Liu Qianqian was going to act in a movie, and the script hadn't been finalized yet. Lu Pingan knew that she would finalize the film "Love in May" with Chen Bolin.

Gao Yuanyuan's words were a bit confusing, and she called every now and then, just to chat about performances.

What's there to talk about acting?

However, Lu Pingan didn't refuse, and treated it as a pastime game during the time between the news broadcast every night and the TV series starting at 8 o'clock, and see who can't help it first.

TV drama time every night is one of Lu Pingan's current hobbies.

This is all due to the fact that the current TV series are really suitable for aftertaste, and the quality is also good.

Zhou Yi's "Young King" started broadcasting, and at the end the lizard man was eating noodles, and the scales fell off one by one, he had remembered it for many years.

What kind of noodles can be so delicious? !

"Conquest" was also broadcast on Tianjin TV. After seeing the seventh episode "Give me a chance, you are useless", Lu Ping'an happily almost rehearsed Baoqiang who was watching TV together as Feng Biao.

It didn't take long, the seventh episode ended, and the eighth episode came to "Huaqiang Buying Melons" again.

Along with the music, Lu Pingan seemed to see a screen full of barrage.

In this period, Yan Wang was really invincible in this type of role, and I felt that no one could play him better.

But in comparison, Lu Ping'an still prefers Yang Liqing in "The Righteous Way in the World Is Vicissitudes".

The TV drama market is booming.

Wu Guohua is more worried about the prospect of "Goddess Dragon".

His thinking is actually the same as that of other people who have watched the drama, and it is this drama that basically will jump.

"Goddess Dragon" is scheduled for Saturday, July 7th.

A week before it, "Returning the Pearl 3" will be screened on Shonan TV.

This level of film, the damage to other TV stations is overflowing.

When one piece comes out, the rest will be boring.

An example is when the first and second films were released.

So the closer it was to this time, the two TV stations also called, saying that if it really didn't work, they would switch to another channel, which meant that the broadcast would still end, and in short, it would definitely make Lu Ping An pass.

Lu Pingan expressed his thanks, but still felt that the ratings would not be bad.

First of all, the record of "Goddess Dragon" in the original time and space is not bad.

Furthermore, the two films are not of the same type.

In the end, the results of "Returning the Pearl 3" are indeed good, but the word-of-mouth and results will be far below expectations.

So "Goddess Dragon" will still have a good space.

Wu Guohua worried: "If you pounce, it will affect you."

Lu Pingan didn't think it was a big problem.

Distribution and production, the meaning of the two is too different, the industry will not be so leisurely staring at him, not to mention that although the performance of the drama is good, it can only be said to exceed many people's expectations by a large margin. Into the "top 20" in the country.

In this way, Lu Pingan, as the distributor, has no problem getting an evaluation with a good vision and a keen sense of the market. Even if he really rushed, Li Peng would not say that he bought the drama. As the distributor, it was the first time to test the waters. For TV dramas, in everyone's opinion, failure is the norm, and the acceptance will be very high.

However, precautions must be taken.

Lu Pingan immediately contacted Feng Ke and several media channels.
