Unscientific Movie King

Chapter 36 Liu Sisi

Huang Bo was filming with a DV in his hand, his feet in a horse stance, and his waist tied to the handrail on the bus with a belt.

This is all experience.

If he wasn't tied like this, the scene would be too shaky and the driver would just brake and throw him out.

The shot lasted only a few dozen seconds, but the two of them sat for more than twenty stations and still couldn't finish the shot.

During their intermission, a young girl with long hair and bangs came up to them from the back of the bus and asked, "Are you guys filming a movie?"

Qin Chuan lowered his head to watch the playback, and answered without raising his head: "No, I was shooting a music video."

The girl's eyes lit up: "You are a singer? Can you sign an autograph for me?"

"Sure, no problem." Qin Chuan handed the DV to Huang Bo, and looked up at the first fan in his life with a smile.

The girl should be a student, about fifteen or sixteen years old. She quickly took out a book and a pen from her bag and handed them over.

Qin Chuan took the pen and asked, "What's your name?"

"Liu Shishi."

"It's a good name." The name sounded familiar. Qin Chuan sighed subconsciously and wrote a blessing on the title page of the book: "I wish Liu Sisi happiness and joy."

The signature is Qin Chuan.

"Oh, it's not this Sisi." The girl said anxiously, "The first one is Shi, which means Xi Shi, and the second one is Shi, which means ancient poetry."

Qin Chuan was embarrassed: "Sorry, I'll rewrite it."

Turning to the second page of the book, he wrote it again, thinking about why the name sounded familiar.

He was sure that this was the first time they met.

There is only one possibility, that I have heard her name in the memories of later generations.

After a few seconds, put down your pen.

Qin Chuan also remembered the origins of the girl's names: Liu Sisi, Long Kui, and Maertai Ruoxi.

Looking at the girl's face again, there is still a little difference between her and the beautiful girl in my memory.

Maybe because she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, her facial features were not fully developed and she didn't know how to put on makeup.

She has a simple hairstyle and simple dress, and looks very young. There are a few pimples on her forehead and a little baby fat.

But her eyes are bright and she already looks like a beauty.

Liu Shishi was a little embarrassed: "Why are you staring at me?"

To be honest, the reason why she mustered up the courage to ask for an autograph was because she was curious and interested in the entertainment industry.

Secondly, Qin Chuan is quite good-looking.

Young, handsome, elegant, mature and steady.

It's totally different from the students in school.

"Haha, because I have to remember my first fan." Qin Chuan closed the book and returned it together with the pen.

"Thank you, you are also my first idol. I am here. Bye."

The back door of the bus opened and Liu Shishi ran off with a book in her arms.

The car door closed again. Huang Bo looked at Qin Chuan strangely and said, "This girl is fifteen or sixteen years old, at most a high school student."

"According to national regulations, those under the age of 18 will be sentenced to prison. Don't be confused."

Qin Chuan smiled: "What are you thinking? Even if I am not a human, I would not attack such a little girl."

Huang Bo breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Chuan continued: "But you are wrong. She is not a high school student, but a college student."

"impossible!"

Qin Chuan recalled: "If I remember correctly, she got on the bus at the Beijing Dance Academy station."

"Maybe he was just passing by. What does that mean?"

"But the textbook she just signed for me is Chinese for College Students."

Huang Bo opened his mouth wide, unable to believe it.

Qin Chuan continued to attack him: "The girl Liu Yifei who played Wang Yuyan in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils is also from Beijing Film Academy, majoring in acting, and is fifteen years old."

Huang Bo felt as if something was blocking his throat and he couldn't speak.

He took the exam twice but failed to be admitted to the undergraduate class of the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy.

In order to stick to this path, he changed to the dubbing department of a junior college, and attended the acting department when he had time. Now, someone at the age of fifteen has easily achieved the goal that he could not achieve even if he tried his best.

It's so devastating.

It feels like I have finally cultivated to become an immortal, but ended up becoming one of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers attacking Sun Wukong.

Seeing that Huang Bo was in a bad mood, Qin Chuan realized that he might have hurt his self-esteem a little.

"But Liu Yifei's acting is not good, she is too naive. She was admitted to Beijing Film Academy because she is beautiful."

Huang Bo didn't believe it: "How beautiful is it?"

"She is really pretty, with delicate features and a very ancient style. The director praised her as Wang Yuyan who walked out of the novel."

"Is this true? Is she as pretty as the girl just now?"

"Whiter than her skin, and more feminine."

Liu Shishi is from Beijing Dance Academy. She has been practicing dancing since she was young, so her skin is not that delicate and fair.

Her physical development is also better than Liu Yifei's.

They are both beauties of different types.

"Then I have to see... No, why are you telling me this?" Huang Bo said with a straight face: "I already have your sister, I don't care about other women."

"Ah, yes, yes."

"Have you rested? If you have, let's continue filming. Two more groups and then we'll be off duty."

Qin Chuan and Huang Bo spent four days shooting the five-minute MV.

In addition to the Drum Tower, streets, buses, squares, and dance halls, the filming locations also include the Drum Tower.

The dance hall of the golden age.

Huang Bo took the photo while Qin Chuan was singing with his guitar hanging on the dance floor.

When the two were filming, Linghua stood on the second floor and watched. She said to Zeng Yi, "Look at Xiao Qin, look at you, I am too embarrassed to say anything."

Qin Chuan wore a white shirt tucked into jeans, looking a bit like a college student in the 1980s with flowing white clothes.

Zeng Yi, with a bald head, a big chain, and sunglasses, looks like a gangster.

They have also filmed a music video. In the video, Zeng Yi was wearing a vest that exposed his shoulders and had tattoos on his arms.

It’s simply too much to describe.

……

After the MV was shot, Qin Chuan found a company that specialized in editing to do the post-production. He and Huang Bo spent a few days in a small dark room with the editor.

It took three days to edit more than a hundred videos.

Then I imported the song and added subtitles, and the final product was completed. The total cost was less than three thousand yuan.

Qin Chuan asked someone to burn a few CDs, and Huang Bo, Lao Ma, Bao Qiang, and Zeng Yi each received one.

That day, they found an Internet cafe, and Qin Chuan and Huang Bo excitedly uploaded the single "Gulou".

It was uploaded to Tieba, forums, Baidu, and various music websites.

He also hired hundreds of internet trolls to help post the content.

One cent per time.

Qin Chuan knew that this was a "publicity fee" that could not be saved.

In later generations, there were many cases where the publicity costs of movies were higher than the shooting costs.

This little money of his is nothing.

After a few days, Qin Chuan spent a total of more than a thousand yuan on publicity.

After doing all this, Qin Chuan and Huang Bo returned to the rental house. After having a good meal, they fell asleep.

After being busy for so many days, they were all tired.

I have done what I should do, and I will leave the rest to fate.

While the two were sleeping, the song "Gulou" was quietly fermenting on the Internet.

The first people to hear the song were the young people who often hung out at Houhai Bar Street, because Qin Chuan promoted it specifically when he was a resident singer.

Before, everyone had to wait for Qin Chuan to go to work before they could hear the Drum Tower, and they couldn’t hear it even after he took leave.

It’s available for free download now, you might as well listen to it.
