Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 206 "Painted Skin" Comes

The production crew of "Love Is After Life" restarted after one and a half months of suspension. What is commendable is that, except for some personnel who had already signed contracts elsewhere and had to leave temporarily, 1% of the staff returned to Yu Feihong's side and chose to continue filming this drama over.

At noon on the 26th, Yu Feihong paid out of his own pocket and treated the whole group to a meal of authentic Yunnan mushroom hotpot as a kick-off banquet.

"It's superfluous to say thank you. I really appreciate everyone's trust in me." Yu Feihong was so emotional that he almost cried at the scene. Fortunately, the assistant director stopped her.

The production crew went to Yunnan and adjusted for two days. On the morning of the 28th, the sun was shining, and the production crew officially started!
After restarting the machine, the work of the crew went very smoothly and quickly.

Yu Feihong is still young, filming is still regardless of the cost, but this time it became easier to talk, because the shutdown for a month and a half, the loss is too great, and Zhang Yuanjun has already issued a notice to the crew, on September 9th Zhang Yuanjun must leave the crew to participate The premiere and pre-publicity of "Animal World", "Animal World" was officially released on the 20th, Zhang Yuanjun had to spend nearly 29 days for the pre- and post-promotion.After that, Zhang Yuanjun will start the national tour of "Camel Xiangzi" with the troupe, and he will not give up.

So Yu Feihong had to complete "Love Has an Afterlife" before September 9th, otherwise she would not be able to make it to Zhang Yuanjun's schedule.

Yu Feihong and the crew were trying to speed up the filming progress, but Zhang Laosan was still reminiscing about the mushroom hot pot he had eaten before, and said to his elder brother Yao Lu in the film:
"It tastes really good. It's not the first time I've eaten mushrooms from Yunnan Province. Why do I feel that this time it's especially delicious?"

Yao Lu guessed wildly: "We used to eat it in other places, no matter how authentic it is, it is not as good as what we eat locally in Yunnan Province. Even the salt and monosodium glutamate are from Yunnan Province, so it must be delicious."

"That's right. I'll go try other fungi tomorrow. It's the season right now. This eating really hooked me up." Zhang Yuanjun said.

"Start up." Shouted on set.

After restarting the machine, the efficiency has indeed improved a lot. One month after the start-up, the crew wrapped up work from Gaoligong Mountain and headed to Shangri-La.

The completion of Gaoligong Mountain means that the main scenes of "Love Has an Afterlife" and most of the action scenes have been filmed.

The crew will not stay in Shangri-La for more than two weeks. Here, the crew mainly shoots some scenes of galloping horses, highlighting a sense of beauty.

When he came to Shangri-La, there were still two days before the official start-up, and Zhang Yuanjun ran out to eat mushrooms again.

His crewmates reminded him: "Take it easy, this stuff might be poisonous."

"Don't worry, I've cooked everything." Zhang Yuanjun felt confident.

The next day, Zhang Yuanjun didn't leave the crew hotel to wander around. Today the crew had an appointment, and he got to be there as the leading actor.

Ren Zhonglun, president of Shanghai Film Group, will visit the crew.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that Ren Zhonglun is here to visit Zhang Yuanjun. Zhang Yuanjun and Shanghai Film Co., Ltd.'s "Animal World" is about to be released. As usual, they want to come and see it.

But I just don't know why the big boss came in person, and this must have been taken too seriously.

Zhang Yuanjun thought so too.

Changing the producer to come to Shangri-La and talk to Zhang Yuanjun is enough, the big boss of the group is a bit too much effort.

Ren Zhonglun arrived at the set at 3 p.m.Yu Feihong and other crew members exchanged pleasantries with him, took him to watch the crew, and then left the time to Zhang Yuanjun.

The two of them didn't go indoors either, they just sat and chatted in the tent set up by the crew outside.

Ren Zhonglun doesn't really believe in Yu Feihong's directing ability. The shutdown of "Love Has an Afterlife" has become a joke in the circle. He doubts whether Yu Feihong can finish filming as scheduled and let Zhang Yuanjun out.

"Don't worry about this, I'll definitely be out of the crew on the 20th." Zhang Yuanjun promised.

Ren Zhonglun attaches great importance to "Animal World": "I have already watched the finished film, and I don't think it is a problem to make it [-] million at the box office."

Zhang Yuanjun really didn't have time to watch the film, and said with a smile: "Really, Mr. Ren, don't fool me by looking at me young."

"Why am I lying to you? When watching movies inside the group, everyone thinks they can sell money. The main reason is that we have never seen this form in the mainland. The audience pictures are fresh into the theater, the quality is not bad, and the audience's reputation will not be bad." Ren Zhonglun has high hopes for "Animal World".

Having mentioned "Animal World", Ren Zhonglun talked about another movie: "Do you know "Painted Skin"?"

"I know, "Liao Zhai"."

"No, the movie "Painted Skin" I was talking about."

"The one that Zhen bulleted at last month's International Film Festival?"

"Well, let's take this film down."

The earliest idea for "Painted Skin" came from Zhen Bullet and Ye Weixin. At that time, there was nothing, so it was decided that Zhen Bullet would play Wang Erlang, Wang Sheng's elder brother, who would conquer demons and eliminate demons.

It is planned to be made into a fantasy action movie, and it is said that it will be made into a Chinese version of "Blade Warrior".

Last month, Zhen Bullet brought this film alone to promote it. It was widely rumored at the film festival that "Painted Skin" "is expected to invite Zhang Ziyi and Fan Bingbing to star in the film's two heroines".

"Besides, the actor who will play Wang Erlang's younger brother has not yet been decided. Korean star Kwon Sang-woo and Hong Kong star Wu Azu are both likely to play the role."

"Ye Weixin doesn't have time, so let's find another director to do it." Ren Zhonglun said, "We will make this film into a co-production. I think you are very suitable for the role of Wang Sheng."

In fact, the Hong Kong bosses of such blockbusters as "Painted Skin" would not vote at all, and Zhen Bullet had to find money in the Mainland.

After NX Film Studio and Shanghai Film Studio came in, the first action was to open Ye Weixin.

Zhen Bullet had to admit it if he didn't, because he wouldn't be able to find money at all if he didn't rely on the mainland.

And even if a boss votes for him, he doesn't have enough contacts in the mainland to invite famous stars to play Wang Sheng and the two heroines.

"Painted Skin" is a good movie, but Wang Sheng is not a good character.

The highlight of "Painted Skin" is Pei Rong and Xiao Wei, and Wang Sheng is a tool man.

Moreover, the leading actor in this film is Pang Yong played by Zhen Bullet, not Wang Sheng.

This is so fucked up.

Why did Zhang Yuanjun, the number one student in the mainland, carry the sedan chair for Zhen Zijin!
Although this kind of thing is not uncommon, mainlanders, no matter how popular you are, you will play supporting roles for Hong Kong stars in co-productions.

In the original time and space, Xiao Ming was popular enough, but in "Sharpshooter", he was not the number one villain for Brother Guanxi.

Another one, "Painted Skin" will be torn apart.

Zhou Xun and Zhao Yanzi will tear up. If he plays Wang Sheng himself, Zhang Yuanjun believes that his team will also tear up Zhen Bullet's position.

This kind of stuff is boring, but it is really necessary.

It is impossible for Zhang Yuanjun not to care.

My 22-year-old movie hero was shortlisted for the main competition in Cannes. Except for 17-year-old Xia Yu, there is no one else in the Chinese film industry. His movie debut score is 5400 million, ranking first among the 80 generation. Why should such a rising star be a supporting role for you.

Zhang Yuanjun did not reject Ren Zhonglun on the spot, but said: "I'll take a look at the script when it's finalized. I don't know if I can adjust the schedule later."

At Ren Zhonglun's place, he had a chat without refusing, and agreed to Zhang Yuanjun's request.

The two chatted some gossip again, and Ren Zhonglun left the crew of "Love Has an Afterlife".
