Chapter 719: Each has a small fragment (4200 words)
Lu Yanhe and Yan He are both like this, so other actors don't have to say anything.
Whether it's being tossed by Liu Bige, tortured, or feeling restless in their hearts and wanting to become a cat and scratch Liu Bige's face a few times, in the end, they all honestly listened to Liu Bige's arrangements, or rather, were NGed and re-shot by Liu Bige again and again, to shoot a shot that Liu Bige could call "pass."
The situation in the *Storm Calmer No. 1* crew also gradually spread.
The people in the crew are all mixing in this line. They signed a confidentiality agreement and didn't go to tell the media reporters much, but their friends around talked about it more or less.
This is like you participating in a project with very high attention in the company. There will definitely be many friends and colleagues in this line who will ask you about some situations. It is not necessarily a secret, purely listening to some gossip, which is also human nature.
The scene of Lu Yanhe and Yan He "being furious" with Liu Bige on the set naturally leaked some wind.
"*Storm Calmer No. 1* shooting has problems?"
When these words reached the ears of Mr. Huang and Mrs. Huang, their first reaction was whether this movie could be shot smoothly.
"That's not it. The shooting is still going on in an orderly manner, but because Director Liu always NG, if a scene is not satisfied, he re-shoots it, and the progress is a bit behind." The company people said, "According to the current situation, it is possible to exceed the period."
Mrs. Huang sighed, "This Liu Bige."
"But, you just said that Lu Yanhe also had a conflict with Liu Bige?" Mrs. Huang changed the subject and asked again.
The company people nodded, "On the scene, they even fought directly. After shooting a scene, Lu Yanhe just left and didn't shoot anymore."
Mrs. Huang was surprised.
"This kind of thing, why didn't you tell us the first time?"
"Because Liu Bige told the producer it was fine, and Lu Yanhe did come to the crew the next day."
Mrs. Huang fell into deep thought.
"Okay, you go down."
After the company people left, Mrs. Huang turned to look at Mr. Huang.
"What do you think?"
Mr. Huang said: "Just watch. It's normal to have conflicts when shooting."
Mrs. Huang: "Lu Yanhe is now doing his own film company. The relationship between him and Liu Bige has always made me worry that Lu Yanhe will dig Liu Bige away."
Mr. Huang shook his head, "No."
"No?"
"Linghe is a company that develops film and television projects entirely based on Lu Yanhe." Mr. Huang said, "They are basically doing Lu Yanhe's own projects now."
"Who knows what his plans are later." Mrs. Huang said, "Look at his actions in Hollywood, those few projects, except *Buried*, are all projects with a production of tens of millions of dollars, no longer the small projects of his Linghe."
"Liu Bige is not this type of director who shoots blockbusters." Mr. Huang said, "He didn't want to shoot in our Long Yan, and would he want to shoot when he arrived at Lu Yanhe's place? After *Storm Calmer No. 1* is finished, help him set up his own production company. We invest and join the shares, but don't interfere with his production."
Mrs. Huang was surprised.
"So fast?"
"Actually, after *Can't Even Fake Death*, it should have been done." Mr. Huang said, "He signed a ten-year exclusive cooperation director contract with us, almost six years. After *Storm Calmer No. 1* finishes post-production and is released, it is estimated to be the seventh or eighth year. With his current industry status and past achievements, he will not let him continue to be tied to us as an individual director."
Mrs. Huang: "If it weren't for us giving him the opportunity for his first play—"
"You gave him an opportunity, this can be both a favor and a grudge." Mr. Huang interrupted Mrs. Huang, "Lu Yanhe helped so many people, look at which time he used favor to talk about things? Xin Zixing wanted to return to Ye Mai Net, he generously agreed, and also announced that he would continue to plan to cooperate with Ye Mai Net. His high school classmate Bai Yu was dug away and no longer worked as an editor in *Jump Up*, he also actively forwarded the Weibo posted by Bai Yu, expressing blessings."
Mrs. Huang said: "Doesn't this show he is stupid? He did this, and later the people around him all want to leave."
Mr. Huang smiled, "However, look at him, how many people around him have left? And, no matter what he does, is there always a group of people helping him?"
Mrs. Huang was stunned.
"*Love Letter*, his first directorial work, with less than 20 million production funds, but invited Chen Bige to star, Luo Yuzhong to be his producer, Liu Bige to be his photography director. When it was released, that series of marketing planning, do you think it was made by Chen Siqi alone? The final box office of more than 1 billion, others say it is a miracle, do you think it is a miracle?"
Mrs. Huang was silent.
"Of course we can't do projects without caring about costs or benefits like Lu Yanhe, but for a unique director like Liu Bige, an author-type director, we should take the most respectful and supportive attitude to face him."
"He can choose to cooperate with us, or he can choose to cooperate with others, but why doesn't he cooperate with a company that has cooperated many times, as long as this company supports him as always."
Mrs. Huang was silent for a moment.
She has been in the film and television industry for so many years, and she is not a shallow fool, only standing on the shoulders of a giant like Long Yan, enjoying the things brought by success.
She is the creator of this behemoth Long Yan. For the management of the company and the grasp of people's hearts, she is a master. It's just that sometimes, there will be a thinking misunderstanding of "not knowing the true face of Lu Shan, only because I am in this mountain."
Being reminded by her husband, she actually reacted. Liu Bige is indeed different from the past, and can no longer be treated as usual, and can no longer regard himself as a "benefactor."
Regarding himself as a "benefactor" will only end up as an "enemy."
Too many things have given such lessons.
Mrs. Huang actually knows very well in her heart.
"It's not really a quarrel, there was a dispute." Receiving Chen Ziyan's call, Lu Yanhe also couldn't laugh or cry. He didn't expect that even Chen Ziyan heard some wind and called to ask.
Lu Yanhe said: "He was just stimulating me, helping me find my state. I also deliberately scolded him a few times to find my emotions."
Chen Ziyan: "Now the industry is discussing it, saying that for so long, this is the first time I heard that you had a conflict with the director when shooting. Many people called to ask what happened."
"Sigh, okay, this kind of thing is like this." Lu Yanhe said, "Tearing, quarreling, it spread immediately."
"Fortunately, no video of the scene was circulated, otherwise it is estimated that it would be on the hot search." Chen Ziyan smiled.
Lu Yanhe: "The management of the *Storm Calmer No. 1* crew is still quite strict. In order to prevent the plot from being revealed, all staff cannot bring mobile phones to the set."
"No wonder." Chen Ziyan said, "Then shoot well."
"Okay, cut!"
As soon as the director shouted cut, Li Zhibai stood up.
"Director, how is it? Can it pass?"
The director was a bit surprised to see Li Zhibai so anxious, and asked: "What's wrong?"
Li Zhibai: "Nothing, waiting to finish work."
Director: "..."
Li Zhibai chuckled.
In this movie, the one who plays the second female lead, a good classmate of Shen Jiayi, and later became an internet celebrity is Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun glanced at Li Zhibai and said: "You are in such a hurry to finish work, what do you want to do? Do you secretly have a girlfriend?"
Li Zhibai immediately spat a few times and said: "Yan Liang is here, waiting for me to find him to eat."
"Oh, so it's not a girlfriend who came, but a boyfriend who came." Xiao Yun immediately looked at Yan Lingyu, the two girls understood, looking at Li Zhibai, all with teasing eyes.
Li Zhibai: "..."
He immediately looked at them with white eyes.
A group of people, originally all very young, gathered together to shoot a play, and it was very lively every day.
This movie, not to mention the male and female protagonists, the male second lead Li Yuefeng and the female second lead Xiao Yun are both popular stars, and their fans are not necessarily losing to the protagonists.
For a youth romance movie, this is very rare.
It can be said that this is a youth romance movie starring four popular first-tier stars.
However, because this is a script written by Lu Yanhe, Li Yuefeng and Xiao Yun came to play supporting roles, and their agents and agencies had no objections.
After all, Lu Yanhe's movies are either works that go to international film festivals to win awards or works that explode at the box office, which only have a blessing effect on actors.
Li Yuefeng followed Chen Bige to shoot *Raise the Red Lantern*, just guest-starring in a role, and as a result, not only followed the crew to the Xitu'er Film Festival, but also added a top award from the Xitu'er Film Festival to his acting resume.
Not to mention Xiao Yun, *Young Days* started cooperation, followed by *Phoenix Terrace*, followed by *My Own Swordsman*, and the role of Guo Furong made her popular all over the country overnight.
For public and private reasons, for emotion and reason, it is natural for them to come to act.
The director looked at the shot just taken, nodded, and shouted pass.
Li Zhibai hurried to pack his things and left work.
"This is in such a hurry, he won't really—" Xiao Yun looked at Li Zhibai's back and tutted twice.
Li Yuefeng heard it and rolled his eyes speechlessly.
These girls, their minds are always about those things.
After Li Zhibai hurried back to the hotel he stayed in, he sent a message to Yan Liang: Where are you?
Yan Liang: Just got on the high-speed rail, it will be early morning, didn't I tell you yesterday?
Li Zhibai: Oh, that's fine, nothing, just asking, see you tomorrow.
Yan Liang: Hmm.
Li Zhibai put down his mobile phone, sent his assistant away, and hurried to the door of his room.
The room card was swiped, and the door opened.
He closed the door for the first time, and then shouted: "Comrade Little Jiang, I'm back."
Comrade Little Jiang's voice came from the bathroom.
"You wait a moment, I'm taking a bath."
Li Zhibai walked into the room and saw some women's clothes scattered on the bed, as well as a bra.
He was immediately restless, and his heart was agitated.
He sat on a chair, legs spread, scratching his head.
After Yan Liang got on the high-speed rail, he didn't take off his sunglasses for the first time, nor did he take off his hat. He found a seat and sat down, and the assistant and bodyguard sat next to him, just wrapping up the seats in this row.
He opened the laptop he carried with him and clicked on a document on the desktop.
This is a script he received recently.
Yan Liang put on headphones and read the script seriously.
After reading for almost two episodes, he lost interest.
Close it, and open another document.
It is another script.
There are a lot of scripts sent to Yan Liang here now.
Yan Liang basically has to read the script every day.
Many scripts, in fact, only need to read the first episode and the second episode to know what the tone of the whole story is.
Yan Liang was not too confident in his judgment before, but as the projects he participated in increased, he slowly had his own judgment criteria.
Don't look at the character, but look at the story—
Not from the actor's perspective to see if there is a character that makes him have the desire to create, the space to create, but whether the story itself is good-looking, whether it makes people want to read it.
This is the big premise. After the big premise is possessed, then look at whether this character has performance space.
However, Lu Yanhe told him to read more action movies.
So, Yan Liang also started reading action movie scripts now.
It's just that reading this kind of movie script makes him a bit confused. Because I don't know how to look at it—
Action movie scripts are often very simple, and often very routine.
Yan Liang doesn't have the ability to distinguish which is good and which is bad.
Like the movie script of *Dragon Gate Inn*, Yan Liang never encountered a second one.
He even specifically looked for some martial arts novels to see if there were any that moved him. He wanted to imitate Lu Yanhe and Li Zhibai to be a producer himself and develop a project. As a result, the novels he liked were either sold out of copyright or had development flaws.
Although the number of novels of this theme is getting smaller and smaller, it is still very popular in the field of film and television, and there is no meaning of "meeting cold" at all.
Yan Liang read the script while taking notes, recording some of his ideas.
Suddenly, Zhou Ping'an called him.
"Where are you?" Zhou Ping'an asked, "When are you returning to Yuming?"
"Aren't I resting tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, with no work arrangements? I came to Li Zhibai's side." Yan Liang said, "I will come back the day after tomorrow."
Zhou Ping'an: "Shijin is preparing to open a big production movie, you come back quickly, let's strive to take this project down!"
Yan Liang was stunned, "What big production movie?"
"A big IP, a top IP with a fairy tale theme, *Ten Miles of Fragrance*." Zhou Ping'an said, "Shijin wants to use 300 million to make this movie, and wants to find a top production team in the industry to make it. If you can take this cake, you will step into the film circle, especially... the film resources after Shijin will definitely be prioritized for you."
Upon hearing this, Yan Liang frowned immediately.
"*Ten Miles of Fragrance* is a female love story, right?" he asked.
Zhou Ping'an said: "Yes, but, do you mind this point? Although *Ten Miles of Fragrance* is a fairy tale love story, do you know how many book fans it has? The male protagonist of this story is one of the TOP 3 novel male protagonists voted by readers for many years. If you act, your popularity will go up a level."
Yan Liang immediately mocked himself: "It may also be scolded up a level."
The more book fans there are, the more the actor is scolded, unless you are really too suitable, making them feel consistent, the paper man walked out of the book, OK, then you exploded.
Zhou Ping'an: "This project is more of a strategic choice after Shijin entered the entertainment industry. You think about it, how many resources will Shijin have later? Such a large capital group to do film and television projects."
