Chapter 257 "Source Code" Filming Starts

In the end, Chen Xi decided to take part in "Source Code" by herself and become the leading actor in it. This is shocking news no matter in anyone's eyes.

After all, although Chen Xi is also a member of the director, compared to other directors, Chen Xi still has a lot of star halo.

There are a lot of people on his thread. He has just started posting Weibo and has a lot of fans in an instant, and when he says a word, many fans will automatically help Chen Xi explain many different versions... This is Chen Xi!
Such a director with star attributes suddenly said that he was going to act in a movie, and the shock that might be brought about in the middle should not be underestimated.

However, now everyone is not only concerned about Chen Xi's actor status. Compared with this, in fact, many people are still particularly concerned about what kind of film "Source Code" is, and they are also concerned about Chen Xi's intention to use this film How far the film has reached, and she also cares about the way she will use to shoot a so-called science fiction film.

"Director Chen, from what we've seen before, the movie "Source Code" should belong to the genre of soft science fiction?" the reporters asked.

In fact, it is very difficult for sci-fi movies to have real hard sci-fi. Even a super movie like "Interstellar" will be considered by some people as a "letter to my daughter."

What's more, China's sci-fi soil is even more so. Some sci-fi masterpieces, including Wesley in the past and Wang Jinkang's novels later, are basically soft sci-fi, and they mostly explore the relationship between people, society and the universe.

Until Liu Cixin's "Three-Body Problem", it can be regarded as an unimaginable thing in Chinese science fiction.

However, soft science fiction, depending on how it is understood, some people may think it is weak because it has a soft word, but there are also people who are not prejudiced.

Chen Xi said: "Indeed, I don't deny that "Source Code" is not a grand sci-fi movie...and everyone should also know that our commercial movies started late and have a weak foundation, although there are many opportunities in our future market." Possibility, but at least at this stage, our market capacity is relatively small, and it is difficult to support super science fiction movies like "Star Wars". Besides, I don't think we can compete in the visual effects and comprehensive film industry system Since Hollywood, which is already quite mature, cannot take advantage of the real head-to-head battlefield, then we can only find other ways."

""Source Code" is such a movie. If you want to accurately position this movie, I think it should not be a low-budget sci-fi movie, but an idea sci-fi movie. It is an idea that supports the whole movie, but I believe that this In terms of plot, the film definitely has the expressiveness that other films do not have. For a director who has shot several films that are loved by everyone in terms of plot, I believe that "Source Code" will also bring you a completely different experience. "

... After Chen Xi's answer, the venue was actually a little quieter, because Chen Xi's answer was indeed with a kind of sincerity. His words are more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

... After finishing these few important issues, today's affairs are actually almost the same.

Afterwards, a lot of attention was shifted to Liu Yifei, and long guns and short guns were also aimed at her. Although Liu Yifei said that her usual exposure is not too high, she is still well-known in the Chinese film industry.

She came to participate in Chen Xi's movie, which was considered a relatively good combination.

However, there are still some people who are worried about Chen Xi: In fact, there is an embarrassing thing that Liu Yifei has basically never acted in any good movies. Basically, the movies she starred in have a particularly low reputation. The results of word-of-mouth were not good, including the later generations of "Tongque Terrace", and then, after "Four Famous Catchers", Liu Yifei's word-of-mouth also fell to the bottom.

So everyone is very worried that Liu Yifei will lower the compulsion of Chen Xi's movie...

This is not aimless. In fact, sometimes some people really have some bad movie effects on them, that is, the movies they star in are basically bad movies, and some stereotypes have been created afterwards.

Fan Binbin is a typical example. Her reputation is basically irreparable. Even before her new film is released, people think in their hearts that this is a bad film, which is meaningless.

Although it is impossible for the reporters to say these words in front of Chen Xi and Liu Yifei, but because there are many discussions on the Internet, some reporters said a few words... But Chen Xi said at this time The mind of a director came out.

However, Mr. Chen's mind makes some people feel very speechless because he is too domineering: "I believe that when you meet the right book, the right movie, the right role, and of course the right director, the time and place are right." Under the harmony of people, Liu Yifei can usher in the pinnacle of her acting career."

"Fuck!" At this moment, many reporters had such a swear word in their hearts.

Even Liu Yifei opened his eyes slightly, and glanced at Chen Xi around him.

She understood why this guy was so rejected by the traditional film industry. Apart from some objective reasons like jealousy, it should have something to do with this guy's nature, Chen Dapao, right?This guy is so outspoken.

However, different people have different effects when they say such words. If some dick directors say this, it will only make everyone sneer in their hearts, but when someone like Chen Xi says it, the reporters are all scratching their heads. How to report, and they don't think there is anything wrong with it.

Everyone can feel this. In fact, this is also the result of some things that Chen Xi has done for a long time: he may make a little bold statement before filming, which sounds arrogant and arrogant, but the facts prove that he can really achieve it, so , Many things like his prestige were established.

This can be regarded as a kind of own hype, but this hype is indeed very effective.

Liu Yifei can naturally feel this too, she feels a little emotional in her heart, sometimes people are really incomparable, many directors are struggling with qualifications at Chen Xi's age, and they don't see much room for success, However, Chen Xi himself has already done things that many great directors can't do.

His film box office and word of mouth have always been high, and his career is also going smoothly. Among the younger generation of directors, only Chen Xi can truly establish the impression that his films must be good. One... Ning Hao, who even became famous at the beginning and was called Chen Xi's model, that is to say, is much more powerful than Chen Xi, is now far inferior to Chen Xi in terms of popularity and everyone's confidence in him.

This is Chen Xi's ability.

But he is still so young...

Liu Yifei sighed softly in her heart, hoping that it was the right choice for her to accept Chen Xi's script without hesitation this time.

... "Source Code" officially began filming.

Chen Xi also really starred in his first movie as an actor. For him, he is very proficient in some basic things of actors, so naturally there is no problem.

For example, walking, where is a good angle for the camera, where to start the painting, and where to fall, all these are not a problem for Chen Xi.

"Source Code" was the first to start filming some martial arts.

Chen Xi has considered many things about "Source Code". In fact, if he wants to use the tone of "Raid" to make his new movie accepted and liked by foreign audiences, he himself thinks it is very unreliable idea.

And purely relying on the strength of "Source Code" itself, its own story... It sounds possible, but in fact, many people simply don't have the patience to watch a Chinese film. It is difficult for films with film structure and plot to compete with those of other countries.

Although in the domestic market, Chen Xi is already a very important director with high popularity and recognition, but in the international market, Chen Xi is still not much better than a blank sheet of paper... Many people still Chen Xi will not be given too many opportunities, nor will he be given too much trust.

So Chen Xi's way to break the game is still to get the fighting in "Source Code", including everything from fist to flesh.

For this, after he decided to play the leading role in "Source Code", he started exercising. Chen Xi is very ruthless to himself. Except for some necessary things, he basically spends time in the gym every day. In the fighting room, exercising your body is also to get out the feeling of routine.

The fighting style of "Source Code", in order to make it easier for everyone to accept, Chen Xi will definitely adopt the kind of "Raid", trying his best to get the feeling of punching to the flesh, but at the same time, it also has a unique Chinese kung fu style Aesthetics, in order to complete this, in fact, everyone already has the experience of "Raid" and "Xiu Chun Knife" in filming, it is not particularly difficult, but in terms of actors, Chen Xi has practiced a little bit of physique in college , Other times it doesn’t have much to do with fitness. In the past few years, I’ve basically been running around, usually soaking in the crew, and my body has been blurred...

To really start to practice things like fighting, to really start to practice routines and get out the things needed in "Source Code", this is the biggest problem Chen Xi and the film are facing now.

But Chen Xi is a person who has always had an attitude and can endure hardships.
