They were all so into the drama!

On the filming set, over there with the director's camera.

Huo Mingjie, whose face was painted so black that he almost turned into a black man, was huddled next to director Ding Sheng, staring at the footage just taken in the camera and shaking his head:

"No, it's not right here!"

"Gong Ziwen's emotion towards his brother shouldn't be such that he can't wait to get rid of it. Otherwise, he would choose to commit suicide in order to let his brother leave. The emotional change is a bit sudden..."

Huo Mingjie was still the director when he was filming the last film, so this bad habit of "pointing fingers" was also brought to this crew.

This Gongzi Wen is the younger brother of the "little general" in the movie. The two brothers have different ideas and fight fiercely for the throne.

The Weiguo defeat at the beginning of the movie was because Gongzi Wen leaked military information and then led the dead soldiers to pursue him.

But later in the movie, this young man suddenly changed his attitude, and when he was desperate, he chose to commit suicide in exchange for his brother leaving...

Director Ding Sheng heard this, but couldn't help but explain:

"This is because one of the two brothers must inherit the throne, so the younger brother made such a choice for the sake of the country..."

After all, the entire script was written by the director, so it's impossible not to have any ideas of his own.

Huo Mingjie shook his head and said:

"The characters portrayed in this way are conflicted and separated from the front and back. In the beginning, in order to fight for the throne, they were even willing to leak military information and let the army die, but then they suddenly woke up?"

The director's idea is actually a higher level.

It's just that sometimes the intention is higher, but it's no use if the audience can't understand it!

There is no foreshadowing for the transition before and after, it is too abrupt.

"The change to Gongziwen is actually because he was coerced by the minister who was the teacher. This is more reasonable." Huo Mingjie continued.

In fact, it cannot be said that director Ding Sheng is incompetent. The two protagonists in his script have very detailed characters.

The soldier played by Cheng Long is good at throwing stones very accurately. The last chaotic battle was also thanks to the stones he threw very accurately.

But this skill did not appear suddenly, but was shown from the beginning of the script.

When the two were chatting, the "Soldier" played by Cheng Long also mentioned that he also wanted to be a brave warrior at the beginning. Only because of his father's entrustment before his death that he should carry on the family lineage, he tried every possible means to save his life.

In this way, at the end of the movie, the Liang Kingdom is destroyed and their home is destroyed, but the soldiers who are always good at escaping choose to fight to the death and refuse to surrender. It doesn’t feel surprising at all!

Details like this are everywhere in the script. Various emotions and behavioral logic make two fictitious characters full of flesh and blood!

The rhythm of a typical road movie, a little guy who is struggling to survive, but in the end chooses to die in battle.

A prince who advocated force, was aloof, and vowed to lead his army to wipe out all the countries. Finally, he came to his senses and stopped using war.

The character's personality changes come naturally because of these step-by-step details.

In addition, the director's film rhythm is also very compact, with outstanding advantages.

But his shortcomings are also very obvious.

Too much emphasis on tight rhythm leads to sometimes confusing narrative logic that makes it difficult to see clearly, and makes people feel that there are more shots of unclear meaning.

If this degree of relaxation is not properly grasped, the rhythm will become dragging...

Relying on Golden Finger, Huo Mingjie has a very solid director foundation.

And now, he is observing director Ding Sheng more from the perspective of a bystander. Coupled with the memory of this movie in his memory, he can actually point out a lot of questions!

Hearing Huo Mingjie's words, director Ding Sheng hesitated for a moment, and then couldn't help but glance at Cheng Long aside.

Director Ding Sheng's current qualifications are not high. He has produced works before, but his results are relatively average.

The reason why he was chosen to direct this movie this time was because he personally perfected the script after listening to the story told by Cheng Long.

For this reason, Cheng Long directly asked him to direct the movie.

But before the shooting started, he made it clear that if he didn't do well, he would be replaced. So the one who can really make the decision in the crew has always been Uncle Long!

Faced with Huo Mingjie's "finding trouble", the director was a little unsure for a moment...

But at this time, Cheng Long was sitting over there with the old god. Even if he saw the director looking over, he had no intention of intervening.

In fact, sometimes not expressing your stance is a kind of expressing your stance!

The director understood the meaning and couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart, then turned to Huo Mingjie and said:

"Then let's take another shot to try out the effect!"

Alas, if I had known that Huo Mingjie was such a piss-poor, I should have been brave enough to persuade Cheng Long to choose Wang Lihong...

Huo Mingjie didn't care what the director was thinking at this moment, he nodded immediately and said:

"Can."

Seeing that the two of them had already reached a conclusion through their discussion, Cheng Long, who had been sitting next to him, stood up slowly and prepared to start shooting.

When walking side by side with Huo Mingjie towards the studio, he even had the intention to joke to Huo Mingjie:

"It's a good thing that your salary is converted into dividends. Otherwise, where would I find someone who only takes one job but is willing to do two jobs!"

It's already 2009, and although the salaries in the entertainment industry are not as exorbitant as they were later, they have begun to rise.

Huo Mingjie has been filming his own company's projects, and his remuneration is transferred directly from the company to the studio. Naturally, this matter of left hand and right hand is rarely mentioned.

But in fact, as a top star in the industry today, Huo Mingjie's salary quoted from outside is not low!

The cost of "Big Soldiers and Little Generals" was actually only over 20 million yuan in total. If Huo Mingjie were paid, the cost of the film would have increased by at least a quarter.

So when signing the contract, Huo Mingjie, like Cheng Long, chose to get box office dividends.

The better the box office of the subsequent movie is, the higher Huo Mingjie’s dividend will be. In other words, the reason why Huo Mingjie is so serious now is to make money for himself.

Of course, in fact, even if he doesn't worry about it now, he can still make a lot of money in the end.

Although I don’t remember it clearly, the box office performance of “Little Soldiers” was quite good, and it also entered the 100 million yuan club.

Based on his salary, converted into a 15% box office dividend, it is definitely higher than the salary of several million...

Hearing Cheng Long's words, Huo Mingjie smiled sheepishly and said:

"When you become a director, it's inevitable to think more about what's good and what's not when filming..."

The thinking perspectives of actors and directors are obviously different.

In the past, Huo Mingjie was just "pointing out" about certain scenes and plots. But now that he has been a director once, he is used to standing on the entire movie and "pointing his fingers"...

Cheng Long smiled and nodded when he heard this, and said nothing more.

He has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and he has seen "drama tyrants" like Huo Mingjie before, and he has long been used to it.

The one who played the leading role did a good job, but in the end, he directly eliminated the director, and the film he made directly changed into his shape...

At Huo Mingjie's age, and with such achievements and heritage, he already behaves very kindly and modestly.

He is even willing to discuss with you, just be content!

Moreover, Huo Mingjie is not giving random orders. Cheng Long also agrees with the issues he pointed out, so naturally he will not interfere...

Later, according to what Huo Mingjie said, the crew shot another scene.

This kind of shot that is related to the subsequent plot still cannot be seen by looking at it alone. Naturally, it is impossible to say whether the effect has changed.

But it seems that director Ding Sheng was prepared to lower his profile before joining the crew for filming, so his mentality is really good!

After accepting Huo Mingjie's suggestion, he simply went on stage to communicate with the actors, and then added a short scene of Gongziwen being alone, showing hesitation...

The filming of the movie went on smoothly.

——

And while Huo Mingjie was concentrating on the crew for filming, the May Day schedule was approaching, and the publicity and distribution work for the movie "Search" was also in the early stages!

As Huo Mingjie's film is preparing to win awards, Green Media Media naturally attaches great importance to it.

Qi Zhengbing, who was in charge of a large number of regular naval forces, started the preliminary publicity directly on the Internet.

They didn’t start promoting the movie as soon as it came out. They didn’t even release the movie trailer. Instead, they started with Gao Yuanyuan!

"Gao Yuanyuan intervenes in the truth!" 》

"How to prove the innocence of a concubine?" 》

"Yuan Pan refutes the rumors, 'She had no involvement'! 》

…

When this movie was launched last year, many actors in the industry were eyeing this resource, among which Liu Tianxian was the most eager to try.

But in the end, the reason why Gao Yuanyuan was chosen for the filming was not only because her acting skills were slightly better, but also partly because she had just suffered from online violence at that time, and she could empathize with that feeling.

After finally having a serious love affair, but still being misunderstood, that’s really aggrieved!

The man really didn't take responsibility, but Yuan Pan was more interesting and stood up to clarify for her later...

There has been communication before, and this promotion will start from her side.

In fact, for Gao Yuanyuan, the current publicity is not to expose her scars.

On the contrary, it was helping her clear her name.

After all, although she was wrongfully accused of being a "mistress" this time, it was not the case the previous two times...

After this public controversy, her previous negative influence has been largely eliminated!

Then public opinion on the Internet naturally led to the movie.

"Huo Mingjie's new movie "Search" is scheduled to be released on May Day! 》

"Huo Mingjie and Gao Yuanyuan join hands to face online violence." 》

"No to online violence!" 》

…

This movie is adapted from the novel "Death on the Internet", which tells the story of online violence and how netizens often start a criticism from the moral high ground without knowing the truth.

This actually corresponds to the incident where Huo Mingjie was exposed on a large scale online at the beginning of last year. It was only after that incident that Huo Mingjie started filming this movie.

Although he also knows that such things will become more and more frequent in the future and will become more and more serious. They cannot be solved by making a movie, but it can be considered that Huo Mingjie has done his best...

What Huo Mingjie and Gao Yuanyuan experienced is almost a replica of the movie, which can really cause fans to feel distressed.

On the Internet, public opinion was distressed.

"When I think of that time now, I feel so sorry for Huo Mingjie!"

"I remember that at that time, it seemed like someone was causing trouble behind my back!"

"What does it look like? Someone is causing trouble, and many navy soldiers have been caught!"

"It's Huayi Brothers!"

"It turns out to be Hua Yi... No wonder the two Wang brothers looked at Huo Mingjie so weirdly and nervously on the night when Huo Mingjie announced his identity!"

"Hahaha, I also noticed it at the time, and I even took a screenshot."

"My Da Meiyuan is so pitiful!"

"Huo Mingjie said before that cyber violence is really terrible and should not be ignored by the public. This is why he made this movie!"

"Really, he is so gentle, I cried to death!"

"Well, I was also one of the people who was used by the mastermind..."

"Me too, I feel so guilty!"

"Ah, it seems like I owe Huo Mingjie a movie ticket!"

"When will the movie be released? I must donate a movie ticket then!"

"Yes, no matter how bad the movie is, I will still support it in order not to worry about my conscience!"

"Bah, bah, you hater, when did Huo Mingjie ever act in a work of poor quality?"

"Indeed, the quality of Huo Mingjie's acting is quite good. Even if he plays a supporting role in his debut, he is always the kind that can make people shine!"

"support!"

With the help of the navy led by Qi Zhengbing, remarks such as "I owe Huo Mingjie a movie ticket" spread wildly on the Internet...

This kind of propaganda method that is at least ten years ahead of the times, the public can't afford it all of a sudden, and it is suddenly aroused.

No matter what they think in their hearts, whether they are sincerely repentant or not, everyone on the scarf forwarded the relevant news directly, and then added the statement "I owe Huo Mingjie a movie ticket."

The movie trailer has not yet been released, and serious publicity has not yet begun. It has aroused a huge response just by relying on the popularity of discussions on the Internet.

For a moment, people in the industry raised eyebrows, secretly marveling at Huo Mingjie's influence, and picked up a small notebook to write down Luyin Media's publicity methods...

Some movies chose to avoid the National Day and Spring Festival schedules, which are the most competitive, and originally planned to release them on May 1st to increase the box office.

But when the movie "Search" was announced, its public opinion offensive was as powerful as a dragon crossing the river, and it even had almost the same momentum as before the release of "The King of Kung Fu".

Under such great pressure, these film distributors were very worried and announced one after another that they would suspend the release or release it in advance, hoping to avoid competition with "Search"...
