Chapter 142 Variables
In fact, if Han Sheng is allowed to remain completely ignorant of the details, and only rely on the memory of the original time and space to look at "The Wandering Earth", look at Guo Fan, or something more, then he may be skeptical.

This is a pretty typical rookie director.

First of all, when he received Han Sheng, he was involuntarily nervous, so that he would make many uncomfortable little movements.

Then when speaking about certain concepts, I am not confident enough, and I always feel that the actor may not be able to understand what he means, and then he will repeatedly emphasize a certain point.

Finally there are some other glitches.

For example, in terms of overall design, Guo Fan is also immature.

Han Sheng remembers that when he and Kang Shisheng were filming "Jianghu", one of the reasons why he needed to practice so many martial arts movements and to be very smooth was that he hoped to avoid switching cameras as much as possible.

Shoot from a single angle.

In this way, the audience is not tired of watching, and can gain enough excitement and emotional accumulation from this fight.

Guo Fan, on the other hand, has the problem of having a new director:

That is, he may have eight camera positions, and then switch constantly, and even switch a perspective for one martial art, in this way to emphasize the power of Sapindus.

This is not only a question of skill, but also a question of the director wanting to prove himself.

Just like what Duan Yihong said when evaluating professional actors:
The disadvantage of professional actors is that they are too good at acting and want to act too much. They wish they could pull out eighteen tricks with just one cigarette.But people kept it in one state until the end, how vivid it was
It's about the same here.

The director is so good at directing, he has learned many kinds, and he can't wait to shoot all of them.

"We plan to use a higher perspective to shoot the scenes here, so when the time comes we will have a good sense of design and interaction, and we will be more involved in this action with the audience."

In the shed, Guo Fan was still talking about his thoughts.

If it was just a routine for him more than ten minutes ago, now he really feels that it must be Han Sheng.

It has been almost two years since he prepared "The Wandering Earth" and now he has started to cast a full range of roles.During the period, various running-in adjustments were made with the main creators, including the most important part of the script:
Many of the current novels are converted into film and television works. The biggest problem is that the content is too much, with millions of words, and large paragraphs are often deleted.

So much so that the plot is sometimes incoherent and so on.

And the novel "The Wandering Earth" according to the boss:

This novel is only [-] words, and the length is relatively short. Its story is a little weaker, so there is a lot of room for the imagination of the director and screenwriter when adapting the film.

But this is not a wild idea.

How to maintain the rationality of the script and fill in a full and full script has always been a big problem.

Including just now, what he showed and explained to Han Sheng were all relatively incomplete notebooks.

Then Han Sheng put forward some "opinions and suggestions".

So the other party just mentioned a few words so casually and naturally, and instantly solved many mysteries in their hearts.How to connect here, how to allocate there, and what kind of problems still exist
Not to say that everyone agrees, but the percentage is high.

So after listening to this passage, the people next to me hurriedly took notes.Guo Fan quickly confirmed that this was the protagonist he wanted, and immediately promoted his crew more enthusiastically: It can be seen that Han Sheng is indeed interested in this book as Sister Hua expected.

Next, tell Han Sheng:
The cast is also good.

"Well, you are professional in shooting, and I only have a little bit, just don't be too flashy."

Han Sheng didn't say much in the end.

He understands that the other party may have this kind of shooting method, and he has worked with him before, and there is a gap between those experienced directors in his cognition.But if it really affects other people's shooting methods because of your own opinions, it may not be worth the loss.

"Okay, no problem, we will consider it carefully."

Guo Fan nodded.

In fact, he knew Han Sheng's implication as soon as he heard it, and immediately gave him another high-level look in his heart.

Because he also knows that these designs of his may not be the best choice.In fact, he is not so satisfied with this kind of processing, because it is true that the lens language is relatively elementary, and only by using this multi-element patchwork can we express what others may express in a single lens.

It's like Life of Pi.

Guo Fan once told people:

When the kid at the back told the second story, one camera was placed there and moved slowly, occasionally cutting to the dialogue of the Japanese insurance agent here, and then cutting back.

Just one shot, that is self-confidence, that is, it gives you very little, but you can read a lot of information.

But he, the level is limited, the level is limited.

"Well, it's okay, that is to say, you follow your own terms." Han Sheng also nodded.

In fact, he had been picking on the other party just now, not because he thought the other party was bad or bad.Yes, maybe in terms of experience, even Han Sheng, who has filmed three films, can feel that Guo Fan has some problems with novice directors, but can't others feel it?

nonexistent.

A company as big as China Film Group must be able to feel it, so it still has its own reasons for leaving it to Guo Fan.

The reason, Han Sheng thinks, is aesthetics.

The aesthetics of many major domestic directors are too backward, let alone the aesthetics of science fiction movies.

Director Chen could make this play, that is the effect of "Day Meteor", the so-called "bourgeois intellectuals' naive imagination of the northwest countryside".Or Feng Dao's "North Ruins and South Yuans", which have been separated from life for too long, and they can't figure out the lives of ordinary people.

So in fact, looking at Guo Fan in turn, there is such a director who loves science fiction, has aesthetics, and can make those things tall.
He is gifted.

So when we talked about this, Han Sheng didn't make any more fuss.

His walking pace also slowed down, his expression paused, and he said: "Then director, shall we start auditioning?"

"Ah, good, good, come this way!" Guo Fan was also stunned.

Good guy, indeed, the reason for calling Han Sheng over today is to audition for a play.It's just that after doing this for a long time, it looks like a leader is inspecting, which is a bit strange.

In fact, the people on both sides had talked about many things with Han Sheng just now, and they didn't even think about the audition.Han Sheng's performance materials are now everywhere. It is not too difficult to play this kind of role.

But the other party took this matter so seriously, and the crew of "Earth" was naturally very happy.

This attitude is great.

After all, if such a popular star is invited to the crew, Guo Fan probably won't be able to suppress it if the other party is arrogant, and there may be people on the crew to guard against it from time to time.

If the attitude of the other party is better, then there may be less trouble in the follow-up.Also in order to reduce trouble, the crew gave him a clip where Liu Qi was caught driving with his sister and met Han Ziang in prison.

It's not that complicated, though.

Han Sheng read the whole script. In fact, Liu Qi is not so much the male lead, but more of a tool man. He strings together the clues of the whole play, creates conflicts, and of course has a part to resolve conflicts.
It's not the kind of American heroism at all.

More like the cheap cannon fodder in horror movies,

The money-greedy fat man in the Tomb Raider movie,
And all those characters who make weird moves, cause trouble, and finally play some role to clean up.

This also makes this kind of role not play in one or two scenes at all, it is more of a long-term perspective
Well, Han Sheng admits that the role of Changxian is not that good.

So he can only try to add something to himself, so that all the actions of the characters are more reasoned, and the characters are more three-dimensional.

For example, when he was beaten here, he noticed that he was also "beaten" while moving his body to hide.

The expression on the face is also in place:
At first, I was a little nervous and guarded, with a worried look on my face, and then when I was really "beaten", I immediately covered my hands on the Internet, and didn't dare to look at the other party.When you have to lower your head, even if you make a mistake, you still have a little bit of dissatisfaction.

After the performance, Guo Fan couldn't be more satisfied.

The excited little eyes looked straight at Song Ge, which means that I have no problem, and if you have no problem, I will agree.

"Not bad, very good."

Song Ge has been more serious since Han Sheng started acting.

Then comment: "But there will be some details that need to be adjusted."

In fact, he didn't expect that the other party's handling was quite good, and he didn't see at all that he was not from a major.Song Ge was also a little speechless, thinking that if the other party hadn't already signed a contract with Shanhai Century, then Han Sheng would definitely be drawn into their circle.

It is said that their circle has been looking for new people to take over the past two years.

Women are okay, but men are really not up to standard
But when he returned to the scene, he finally said: "But generally speaking, I still think you are very suitable for this role. If you are also satisfied, then this role is yours."

Han Sheng was startled, it was too fast.

Interviews have to go through several processes, personnel, technical aspects, leadership aspects, and finally accepting people, which is quick here.

But before he could speak, Guo Fan immediately said, "Yes, actually my No.1 choice is you."

After getting rid of some worries about Han Sheng before, when he came to see Han Sheng now, it was pleasing to the eye no matter what.

To be able to accept this salary, and more importantly, to be able to accept a long shooting time.I have my own ideas and understanding of the whole movie, and it is in line with the direction of the creative team. The acting skills are good, the image is good, and I am still a popular star with works. I won’t be out of breath just because the movie is filmed and released. paste.

Thinking about such a candidate, he was still a little hesitant before.
What do you think?

Seeing that Han Sheng was about to speak, he heard a voice from the door: "This, Han Sheng and I still need to discuss it."

Looking up, Jiang Xixi came back.

Guo Fan was nervous for a while, thinking that the other party would question him.

result…

How does she actually look on her face, with a faint smile?
Well, no surprise.In fact, Jiang Xixi quickly realized that the other party was making a fuss, and was surprised, but in fact, she was not in a hurry to go back, but pretended not to know.

In other words, although she has been persuading Han Sheng today, in fact, she doesn't interfere with Han Sheng's decisions.

There is no way to do this.

For anyone who comes across an artist whose decisions are always right, no manager dares to guarantee that you did not do it right.What's more, after the actual analysis, she also knew that if this matter could really be won, it would be of great significance.

So she must be on Han Sheng's side in essence.

However, the pressure from the company was directly on her, and Jiang Xixi had nothing to do.

In the end, Wang Jinghua's excuse was just right.

She also stepped in.

After all, a company is a company. Although she is a superior, being an artist is her most important job category.Within the scope of her ability, she must support Han Sheng 100% and check him out.

So after Han Sheng came over, she didn't say anything else and asked, "You decided so quickly?"

Han Sheng said, "Well, yes."

"Is it really fully considered?"

Han Sheng thought for a while and said, "It should be no problem."

Jiang Xixi nodded and said, "That's fine, I always believe in your conclusions, and now I just have an excuse, so you can make your own decision."

After a chatter, the two came back here again.

Looking at the expectant eyes of the other party, Han Sheng was not in a hurry, but said: "Boss Song, basically there is no major problem here, but you know that I have conditions when I take this kind of scene. "

Song Ge asked: "What condition?"

Han Sheng said: "Boss Song, you also know that if acting in this kind of play is really just for fame, then I may not be too satisfied.

I am optimistic about this drama, so I am willing to share the risk with this drama, it is still the same as when we were in "Wolf Warrior 2", I also want to participate in this drama.

As for the share, I need 2000 million, and I will also consider it as the highest priority when increasing investment in the future. "

"This." Song Ge was a little dazed.

Then I saw that the person in charge of China Film had a strange expression: "I can really answer you directly, it should be no problem."

Regarding the investment in "The Wandering Earth",

Song Ge had been hesitant before.

He was only drawn into this crew this year, and it was because of some relationship elements.Otherwise, BJ Culture doesn't want to invest in this drama.

There are already money-making passwords in the circle.

Traffic + big production + good schedule and good publicity, you can make money, why invest in such an uncertain movie?

Indeed, at this time the market has reached the time when you can make money by hiring traffic actors.And it’s fine if it’s normal, the company has recently prepared to officially launch the magical epic masterpiece "Fengshen Trilogy".

Calling for an investment of 30 billion, of course it is good to hear this figure, but it is obviously not a small cost.

Dress up as well.

In the end, he just invested because he couldn't save face. In this way, Wanda, who invested together these days, felt a little bit like withdrawing the capital and running away, but he needed his help to stabilize the capital.

Such a somewhat unstable team can really settle Han Sheng so quickly, and the other party still wants to invest?

For a while, Song Ge didn't know whether it was because the other party was bold or what.

But think about it.
What else did the people at China Film Group think, and they responded directly: In fact, it is generally considered to share risks and issue joint releases by attracting people in.

Han Sheng obviously doesn't have the ability to co-publish, but let alone the production of this crew, there are very few people who share the risk.So the person in charge immediately answered the call, and then added:
"I mean, the project "The Wandering Earth" is really good, but we would also like to share it with you."

Song Ge sounded a little funny, but he was able to speak, he just said: "Yes, this project is actually quite good."

Originally, he was also thinking about whether to vote more.

Because Han Sheng is a serious celebrity, and also has a lot of traffic, he naturally added chips to this film.As a result, they brought their own 2000 million investment, good guy, it is more difficult to pay back, at least 5-6 million.

This, I still don't follow the ticket.

In addition, China Film didn't say anything else, so he was fine.

"That's fine, then I have no other problems."

Han Sheng had also yelled 2000 million, thinking about asking for a lot of money to pay back the money.After all, the current investment in this drama is only more than 1 million yuan, and the 2000 million yuan is estimated to account for more than ten percent.

The other party may not be very happy, or subconsciously refuse.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

In the end, good guy, he turned into a meat bun and beat a dog.

Guo Fan was immediately dazzled by the good news, and said silly and cheerfully: "All right, it's good. In fact, if I have some ideas in the play that I want to realize, the current investment may not be enough. If so, Maybe you can try it out."

The amount of investment has increased, but other aspects are actually going well. As mentioned just now, investors may even feel more pressure to repay their capital.

But for the director, the more money the better.

There is no director who can't run out of money, Guo Fan was excited for a while, and then said after recovering: "But I will strictly control it and save a lot."

Save a lot of what?

Use more, so that I can invest more in the future, hehe
"Of course I believe Director Guo."

Han Sheng's face returned to normal. He has already regarded himself as an investor at this moment, and said with a smile: "Then my staff here will contact you further. Let's sign the contract as soon as possible and I will prepare as soon as possible."

"Of course..." The person in charge also laughed.

After exchanging pleasantries, Han Sheng declined the other party's invitation to dinner, saying that he still had work to do.

Also bid farewell to each other.

After the people left, Guo Fan stood there in a daze in the shed, not making a sound or moving for a long time.

"what happened?"

Wang Jinghua came over slowly and said: "The result is not very good, it is even better than the best I imagined."

Guo Fan seemed to be still in a daze, and after a few seconds he said, "Yes, Sister Hua, you are right. It seems that Han Sheng really likes this drama. He actually acted in it and is willing to invest."

Wang Jinghua smiled and said: "Of course, although there is some hindsight, I always feel that it is a high probability event that he will take over this drama."

"Then you say, since he is so optimistic about the situation."

Guo Fan paused, and couldn't help but said: "Then we want to invite a first-line actor to guest-play Liu Qi's father, can we also ask him to help out? This is too difficult."

"You better save it!"

Wang Jinghua immediately interrupted, and then said speechlessly: "There is no such thing as you who is so good-looking and good-looking, and you are not afraid of scaring others away."

But after saying this, she hesitated for a while:
"But you want Jane to talk about domestic first-line actors who are willing to play the father, who are of the right age and have a schedule, and are willing to just want to pay for it."

"It's better to have a good relationship with Han Sheng, so that the two of you will have a better relationship"

Guo Fan originally wanted to add another sentence, but under the eyes of Sister Hua.

Shut up obediently and leave.

Only Wang Jinghua was left here alone, and continued to be a little sad: In fact, what Guo Fan said was not unreasonable, but such a first-line person, who can be invited, seems to have not appeared in China yet.
Forget it, don't worry.

Years of experience taught her that the entertainment industry is changing rapidly.

If you encounter something that is difficult to solve now, it may be solved in a month or two.That cameo scene can be postponed until August or September, when the time comes, maybe there will be new variables.
