Illiterate top class: three years of poor performance, become a superstar

Chapter 318 The Wandering Earth launches in a low-key manner

"..."

Using the ready-made venue of this private conference room, Chen Yifan showed his ideas through projection.

Li Cheng and Zhuang Hui supplemented some specific plot ideas from the sidelines.

An alternative 'script workshop' was launched in such a simple and direct manner.

not right either...

It should be called Xu Nian’s personal subjective script review meeting.

Whether it's Chen Yifan, Li Cheng or Zhuang Hui, all of their efforts are only for one thing -

Obtained Mr. Xu’s approval.

Then start shooting.

Nothing else. Everyone agrees with Xu Nian's initial clear point of view. This is a movie that should be a bit ambitious.

Once released, the goal is to break the history created by Infernal Affairs.

Even if you fail in the end, you must at least have such courage, confidence, determination, and execution strength!
Although we all know that it is difficult to break this record.

But don’t be fooled.

Reflecting on the realistic style, Li Cheng and others all believed in Mr. Xu's critical vision.

And Mr. Xu’s little bit of insignificant inspiration.

So far, every movie Xu Nian has starred in has been outstanding because of this little bit.

Without exception.

In fact, the Wandering Earth project has already received a little bit of encouragement from Mr. Xu.

After all, the name alone is worth 1 million at the box office.

And the frame base is beyond imagination.

The key factor now is to reduce the details of the plot itself, such as this and that.

Under the narration of the three people, Xu Nian quickly had a clear understanding of the wandering earth book they compiled.

It was somewhat different from the wandering earth in his memory.

For example... the structural symmetry of the two male protagonists was truly considered at the plot design level.

The scenes between 'Xu Qi' and 'Xu Peiqiang' were well designed, which reduced the dramatic space of 'Xu Qi' to a certain extent.

There are fewer unnecessary plot conflicts, etc.

How should I put it, because Chen Yifan, Li Cheng, and Zhuang Hui, who took the lead in creating the script, had a clear plan.

This is a series of videos.

Moreover, under Xu Nian's casual reminder, they already had the awareness that the second part was a prequel to the first one.

And, with strong financial support, Chen Yifan and the others established a brand new team of screenwriters.

There are not many people, but they are all quite unique.

Among them are several Internet writers who are truly skilled in science fiction and fantasy and have written lengthy novels;

It also includes research consultants specially invited from some scientific research institutions;

It also includes copywriters who are extremely good at market-oriented plots to reduce the series of plots in the form of routines.

Based on this, a complete world framework was constructed, and then a part of it was intercepted and expanded into the Wandering Earth.

It is quite different from the relatively simple 72-hour one-person-one-one-line template in Xu Nian’s memory.

The specific performance is... it's more of a sci-fi epic feel.

It is above the earth version of Wandering Earth 1 and below Wandering Earth 2.

In the end, Xu Nian expressed his opinion: "Overall, it is better than I imagined."

"As for more detailed issues, they can only be exposed during actual filming on the set."

"But I have to say one more thing... In this form of film, it is no longer possible for me to have a sudden inspiration on the set."

"It may just be a difference in one or two lines."

"In other words, you must completely believe in your own level this time."

After hearing this, Li Cheng thought about it and said, "How about... this time, second uncle, you can directly guest-direct."

"What the hell!" Xu Nian frowned, "I'm an actor. I don't know how to direct anything!"

“……”……

Whether that happens or not is another matter, but a consensus has been reached anyway, and the group moved to the restaurant to dine.

only……

Xu Nian doesn't have a great appetite.

He finally realized that the good annual leave in April was gone.

The movie is about to start.

And play with a hammer!

The point is... The movie is about to start filming, and the other male lead, 'Xu Qi', has not yet been cast.

The role of 'Han Duoduo', who has a lot of roles, has not been scouted yet.

However, Li Cheng and the others hoped that Xu Nian could participate in these matters, because in the end they had to work together.

Xu Nian thought about it carefully... and found out that his scenes were all done independently on the 'space station', so he decisively rejected the proposal.

lazy.

We have all planned to go on an outing with Lin Jianian and Zhang Yawei.

It just so happens that nothing is delayed.

Faced with Li Cheng's "pressure", Mr. Xu said casually: "If I don't participate in the selection of roles, will it delay me from being picky on the set?"

"I am the honorary director."

Li Cheng: "..."

It makes sense to step on the horse, but I am speechless.

Zhuang Hui... Zhuang Hui didn't speak at all. It's not like he had never cooperated with Mr. Xu.

I know very well Mr. Xu’s unique self-positioning on the set.

He wished that Xu Nian was an honorary director.

What if the three chief directors of The Wandering Earth have different creative opinions?
It's okay to say that two chief directors are relatively common.

The three chief directors...how do you say that, the three monks have no water to drink!
Without Mr. Xu as the central restraint, Zhuang Hui even felt flustered~

As for Chen Yifan... his idea is very simple. One day he can have the understatement but unbridled science fiction imagination of Mr. Xu.

Now it’s better to make full use of the experience I learned on the set of Hollywood science fiction films.

…………

Tuesday, October 4nd.

Xu Nian got up early, got up from the bed in Zhang Yawei's bedroom, washed up with Zhang Yawei and went downstairs.

Then go to Lin Jia Nian's house to wake Lin Jia Nian up.

Then go for a morning run together.

Then eat.

Then he patted his butt and got on the Coaster and left Tianhe Yunshu and went straight to Baiyun Airport.

Sitting in the car, Xu Nian suddenly remembered that he seemed to have not been home for more than a month.

At most, when I pass by my house during my morning jog, I almost forget what it looks like inside.

Either he sleeps at Zhang Yawei's house or Lin Jianian's house, or he doesn't go back to his own house to sleep.

Although he had never thought about it, he subconsciously thought that next time he slept in his own home, it would be a one-on-one situation~
The car quickly stopped in front of a Gulfstream G700.

For domestic trips without Lin Jianian and the others, Xu Nian insisted on choosing the Gulfstream G700.

Convenient enough.

This time the destination is Qingdao, more specifically the Oriental Movie Capital.

The entire Wandering Earth will be filmed here, and all scenes will be completed using some studios in the studio.

Xu Nian will also see the results of Chen Yifan and his team’s preliminary preparations in the past few months——

Tools
5 million is really a lot of money, and you can't spend it all on all these simulation props.

But... before seeing these, the first thing Xu Nian got involved in when he arrived was——

The customary startup ceremony cannot be avoided.
