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

Chapter 73 I Love You

In the afternoon, Lu Ping'an, Yu Feihong and Jason went to register with the trade union first, and the identities of director and screenwriter had to be confirmed.

The registration process is similar to that of many places, not so fancy, paying a tip can speed up the efficiency.

Lu Pingan is not stingy, throw out the 50 "big fee", and you can get it the next day.

Then came to the film and television base frequently used by the summit.

According to the plan, it took an afternoon to select the main scene and other scenes.

Hollywood is the patriarch in this kind of hardware supporting facilities, so you can get what you want.

If you really don't have one, make one now, and you can find relevant talents within an hour, but manual production will be very expensive.

Fortunately, the scene of "Chain Saw" is very simple, which is the type that Jiang Wen said "big things happen in a cramped space", which is what Lu Ping'an is good at.

So it didn't take long to find the main scene that could be used for shooting.

For movies with this kind of scene, Lu Ping'an is really familiar with it until now.

So after selecting the scene, he knew how to position the actors, where the staff stood, how to position the camera, and how to turn on the lights.

Lu Pingan knew that this was the result of proficiency, also known as the sense of smell on the set.

Yu Feihong still doesn't know what film Lu Pingan is going to shoot, so it's hard to ask some details, but she also remembered today's scene, and plans to simulate it by herself after reading the script at night, and then communicate with Lu Pingan .

The scene is selected, and then the crew is formed.

Makeup, lighting, props, photography, and more.

There is no shortage of these people in Hollywood.

And Fengfeng will provide help, so in one afternoon, except for the actors, a total of 12 people in the crew got everything done.

Then there are the actors, which will be finalized slowly in the next few days.

In terms of actors, Los Angeles has no shortage.

But for casting, Lu Pingan still has his own requirements.

Stars, future stars and so on aside, the most important thing is the mock scoring.

For the first Hollywood film, the quality and quantity must be guaranteed, such as burying eggs, unless you really meet a future star during the casting, you can still consider it, otherwise forget it.

Of course, the rules of Hollywood must be followed, there is no less than one black man, he understands.

After finishing the matter in the afternoon, Lu Pingan was going to go back.

After getting into the car, the driver, a white man, asked, "Boss, you are going to make a movie, right?"

"That's right." Lu Pingan didn't hide it from him.

Sure enough, the white boy asked, "Do you think I can do it? I am also an actor. I have acted in 36 plays and have rich experience."

Lu Pingan knew that this little brother was also an actor, this is what Hu Qingquan said when he came here.

He has also looked at this carefully, but it is true that he is not a familiar star in the future.

But Lu Pingan still gave him a chance: "Give me your resume in a while, and you will come to the audition, but I don't guarantee that I will really give you a role, unless you are really good."

"Don't worry, boss, I understand. By the way, my name is David Iverson. Boss, you can just call me David."

The white guy was very happy.

"Alright David, hope you're doing well."

Lu Pingan didn't feel much, this time he was still going to use the simulator to cast a role, if the white boy's score is not bad, it doesn't matter to him, but if it's too low, then I'm sorry.

Back home, Jason and Xiang Guoqiang left on their own, they still had some things to deal with.

Lu Pingan and Yu Feihong started to read the script.

The script was copied from the original English dialogue, and the Chinese version of Lu Pingan was also made.

There was no surprise in the result. After seeing it, Yu Feihong looked surprised at Lu Pingan, and felt a little disgusted: "It's so bloody, why did you make this kind of film?"

"This movie is very good, you didn't even watch it carefully."

"I mean, why don't you take some warm photos, just like remembering the building block house, that kind of sunshine."

"Hey, I can't help it. I lack love in my heart, and I need someone to heal me."

Lu Pingan blinked at Yu Feihong as he said that, but it caused another white eye.

"Irregular!"

"Then seriously, work!"

As a producer and director, he also needs to roughly formulate the overall plan of the set.

When it is almost finished, it will be handed over to the rest of the crew tomorrow for detailed formulation.

Hollywood has an eight-hour working day, everyone is very strict, and if it exceeds, you have to pay a lot of money.

Lu Pingan doesn't have much money in his hands now, so he can't lose too much in this regard.

After entering the working state, Lu Pingan is very serious. Yu Feihong has seen this side of him.

So I stopped chatting and began to follow Lu Ping'an's instructions to do what the assistant should do.

At work, Yu Feihong is also like a curious baby.

"Why is the seat arranged like this?"

"Why do you want to light it like this?"

"Why is this shot added here?"

"why."

Because Lu Ping'an's sub-cameras are very detailed and have a strong sense of imagery, which he prepared from a long time ago.

So Yu Feihong asked many questions, such as lighting, photography, post-editing and so on.

Lu Pingan was also very patient, because while explaining to her and teaching her, he was also reviewing.

He knows that he is not as talented as outsiders seem to be, and he can't really control any style of movie as he wants.

And "Chain Saw" is a new style for him. If he wants to shoot that kind of taste, he needs to have more skills and think about the intention of each shot in the original film.

At this time, what I usually talked with Jiang Wen and Hu Qingquan, and what I read in books came into play.

Once practice and theory are combined and mastered, there will be a lot of insights and rapid progress.

Therefore, Lu Pingan was not impatient with Yu Feihong's questions. Sometimes he would take these questions as exams and give himself a test.

And his serious state, completely different from the frivolous one just now, really made Yu Feihong feel very attractive.

In fact, she knew it while shooting Source Code.

But seeing you again now, this curious feeling is still there.

She couldn't help but look carefully at Lu Pingan.

He is very handsome, with three-dimensional facial features, focused eyes, and an indescribable temperament in his serious appearance.

In a daze, Lu Pingan asked: "Do you understand?"

"Ah, if you say it again, there are still some things you don't understand."

Yu Feihong quickly stabilized his mind.

Lu Ping'an is still patient: "Absent! Let me say it again, listen up, it's like this, the shots here must be"

The corners of Yu Feihong's mouth curled slightly, and he listened carefully, as if he had returned to the time when he was a student making up lessons. This feeling is very good
Soon it was 10 o'clock, and Hu Qingquan came back. He had another reception today, and he was a little bit drunk when he came back.

Lu Pingan poured him hot tea, and Hu Qingquan rambled about who he met again today.

After finishing, he said, "Tomorrow I will go to Chicago to deliver the film, and then I will go to New York. Are you okay at home?"

"It's okay, sister Yu will take care of me, right sister Yu?"

After Lu Pingan finished speaking, he looked at Yu Feihong.

Yu Feihong smiled and curled his lips. He didn't have the same knowledge as Lu Pingan, but just said to Hu Qingquan, "Don't worry, Mr. Hu, you should also pay attention to safety."

"Don't worry, Xiaoxiang has arranged bodyguards for me. Alas, Xiaoxiang is a good boy. It's safe. Where did you find such a good boy?"

"It's good that he's in place. Old Hu won't talk about it. You should rest quickly. I can't even open your eyes."

"I'm a little tired. I wasn't like this before. When I was young, I was able to drink well. How much is this? I'm old."

Hu Qingquan babbled and was helped back to the room by Lu Pingan.

After settling him down, she went downstairs. Yu Feihong was packing up her things. Seeing Lu Pingan coming downstairs, she said, "It's already 10 o'clock, I have to go back."

"I haven't eaten yet. Let's go after eating. I'll see you off later."

"Do you have a driver's license?"

"No, but I have a driver."

Lu Pingan said and went into the kitchen.

It's only been a few days since I came to Laomei, and my stomach can't stand it, so I can make a bowl of egg noodles to relieve my cravings.

"Let me do it."

Yu Feihong followed into the kitchen, took over Lu Pingan's job and started to work.

Lu Pingan couldn't help but praise: "It's really virtuous!"

Yu Feihong smiled and didn't answer, he just waited for a while and asked, "Give me the egg."

"okay."

After a while, two bowls of egg noodles with clear soup and little water were ready.

It tastes okay, lacks some seasonings, not as good as domestic ones, but at least it's Chinese food, it's the taste of home.

After eating, Lu Pingan sent Yu Feihong home.

The car drove for half an hour and arrived. It was also a small villa, located in a good location, and looked quite safe. The villa was dark and no one was inside.

"Okay, I'm going back, you go back and pay attention to safety."

After getting out of the car, Yu Feihong looked back, smiled and waved goodbye.

"Would you like me to come in and have a seat?"

Lu Pingan asked while lying on the car window.

"No, I'm afraid of danger!"

Yu Feihong showed a look of "seeing through you", waved his hand after speaking, and was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait, I have something for you."

Lu Pingan got out of the car and handed Yu Feihong a document, "This is the script I told you. It hasn't been finished yet, so you can read it first."

"Did you really write it?"

Yu Feihong was a little surprised, this was said when watching the short film in the theater, she just thought that Lu Pingan just said it casually.

"Of course, do what you say, do you want to go in and explain it to you?"

"Okay, I'm not in shape, let's go back."

Yu Feihong waved his hands, smiled and took a few steps back, returning to the house.

After Yu Feihong entered the door, Lu Pingan asked the driver to leave. On the way, he asked, "Have you remembered the address? Don't drive in the wrong place tomorrow."

"Don't worry, boss."

In the house, Yu Feihong also watched the car leave.

After the car was gone, she opened the file and saw three large characters: "I love you".

Yu Feihong suddenly felt his heart pounding.

I just kept flipping through it, only to find that the name of the script is "I Love You".

Yu Feihong's heart suddenly felt a little empty, but soon, she was attracted by the script.

Then within 10 minutes she went crazy:

It's not finished yet!
What about the back? !
