China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

Chapter 229 Shooting a new movie with Ning Hao
island city.

"Source Code" filming location.

"CUT!"

"Lu, come here and take a look."

After the filming ended, director Duncan took the initiative to call Lu Yuan in front of the monitor.

Seeing the performance on the screen, Lu Yuan also discovered his own problem.

"Sorry, Duncan, please give me 5 minutes."

The play "Source Code" is almost a one-man show by the male protagonist. It repeats for 8 minutes, and the protagonist has gone through a total of nine cycles.

In each cycle, the protagonist enters a different state of mind.

And the specific shooting cannot follow the cycle of one to nine.

In order to save costs and time, the order of shooting was completely disrupted. For example, the scene that Lu Yuan shot before was the first time he entered.

Then, it jumped to the fifth time.

Shooting in this way does save a lot of costs, but the requirements for the protagonist group, or the male protagonist to be precise, have undoubtedly become very high.

In fact, Duncan's shooting plan was to shoot slowly in a cyclic order from one to nine.

However, this plan was rejected by Lu Yuan.

If you shoot like that, the shooting cycle will be very long.

After all, the scenes played in movies are different from those on TV. Under the huge screen, every tiny corner will be displayed in detail.

For every shooting, the scene had to be rearranged, and even the areas that had not been touched in the previous shooting had to be carefully inspected.

The placement of the water glass, the actors’ makeup, costumes and other details must be the same as during the first shooting.

As a movie with a time loop theme, the filming process is far more complicated than that of ordinary big-budget movies.

What Lu Yuan and Duncan are pursuing is that even those who are crazy about details can't find a revealing shot.

Therefore, it is important to dig into the details.

Whether it is the setting or the actors' performances, they must strive for excellence.

However, Boss Lu has not filmed such a big drama for a long time, so his acting skills have been slightly diminished.

If it were the peak period of his previous life, Lu Yuan would definitely be holding a similar role with his hands, but now, there are too many things that require his energy.

5 minute later.

Shooting resumes.

"Source code shot 51, fifth shooting, start!"

With a crisp sound of the board being slapped, Lu Yuan raised his head again and looked at Scarlett sitting opposite.

This time, his eyes were no longer suspicious or confused, but he spoke in a meaningful tone.

"Are you still here?"

"of course."

Hearing this, Scarlett was angry and funny.

"Guess what happened?"

Lu Yuan recited the heroine's psychological activities expressionlessly: "You resigned from your job and signed up for NALSAR's course."

"You guessed right."

Scarlett nodded with a smile.

"Open a can of Coke."

"The coffee was spilled."

However, Lu Yuan did not continue chatting with the heroine, but explained what was going to happen next with an expressionless expression.

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a Coke can being opened came from the side (advertising placement), and at the same time, the sound of coffee being spilled also appeared.

Scarlett looked at Lu Yuan in disbelief.

However, Lu Yuan had no intention of explaining and continued to forcefully spoil the story.

"Listen, don't answer this call."

As he spoke, he picked up the heroine's Nokia phone (advertising placement).

Scarlett looked at Lu Yuan blankly.

Telephone?

Where is the call from?
However, just when Lu Yuan raised the phone to her eyes, the phone rang.

In that situation, it was as if Lu Yuan had the ability to predict the future.

"He doesn't deserve you."

……

A few minutes later. "Card!"

"very good!"

Duncan stood up and applauded.

This performance is impeccable.

LU is not only an extremely good singer, but also an extremely good actor. In this scene just now, Lu gave a performance that is not inferior to the Oscar winner.

That kind of calm tone is so perfect!
If Lu can maintain this state in the future, this film will definitely have the potential to win awards.

however.

The peak state cannot be maintained at all times. On the second day, Lu Yuan's state was obviously not as good as the first day.

Although his acting skills still maintain a relatively high level, they are still far from the relaxed and freehand style.

of course.

Lu Yuan's condition is sufficient to meet the needs of "Source Code", but Duncan feels it is a pity.

However, Duncan also understands that some situations are hard to come by.

If every scene can maintain the state of divine help from before, then this actor must not be human.

As long as you are a human being, your status will definitely have ups and downs.

During the filming, "Crazy Racing" directed by Ning Hao and starring Huang Bo held a celebration banquet in Beijing.

Although Ning Hao already has a movie with a box office of over [-] million yuan, "Crazy Racing" has a box office of over [-] million yuan, which is still very important to him.

Because most of the success of "Cohabitation in Time and Space" has been placed on Lu Yuan.

The success of "Racing" not only proved itself, but also once again established Ning's comedy label.

With the success of two consecutive films, Ning Hao has also seen hope of starting filming the science fiction film "Seven Dreams" that he has longed for.

Before, Ning Hao wanted to get 6000 million investment from others?

Don't even think about it.

No one wanted to vote for him.

Now, at least we can talk about it.

Lu Yuan had read the script of "Seven Dreams" and it was a bit literary. Although he was not very optimistic about the movie, Star Media still invested 2000 million.

It's like scratching a lottery ticket.

Well, there is a new director in the country who can make science fiction films, and the director of Xingchen Media’s next science fiction film project has also been found.

Fluttered?

Star Media will not be hurt.

2000 million, no big deal.

Boss Lu accepted two more endorsements and all the costs were recouped.

On the contrary, it was Ning Hao.

If "Seven Dreams" fails at the box office, he estimates that he will have to settle for one to two years, just like Scarlett, the star of "Source Code".

She has been famous for many years, but why is her salary only $40?

Because the several movies she starred in previously were box office hits, America has labeled her a "box office poison."

The title of box office poison is quite destructive.

Making a movie requires more or less metaphysics. With her reputation as a box office poison, those big productions will not give priority to Scarlett.

Like "Iron Man 2", Scarlett was not the first choice for Black Widow.

Emily Blunt, an Eagle Country actor and co-star of "The Devil Wears Prada," is Marvel's first choice.

Marvel is currently negotiating with Emily to see if the schedule can be adjusted.

However, Marvel at this time and Marvel a few years later are completely different. The Marvel universe project has just begun, and it is still unclear whether it will succeed.

When Emily was filming "The Devil Wears Prada," she signed a bundled contract with Fox to star in another Fox movie "Gulliver's Travels."

If you choose Marvel, you will have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages.

It is impossible for Marvel to pay this kind of money.

So, not long after talking, Emily made a choice.

Quit playing Black Widow.

Then, Marvel thought of Scarlett, who was filming in China.

Lu Yuan wants to borrow from Marvel, and Marvel wouldn't want to borrow from him if Lu Yuan's movie becomes a box office hit.

Scarlett's popularity will definitely follow.
