Entertainment, I just like making movies

The next few days.

The Yaoshen team studied the script and rehearsed at the same time, striving to fully understand their respective roles.

For example, Xu Zheng eats and drinks excessively every day, does not sit down when he can lie down, and does not stand up when he can sit.

He doesn't go to bed until two or three in the morning, doesn't get up before eleven in the morning, and doesn't even take a shower. He becomes a second-class cripple who stays at home with nothing to do and no pursuits.

And Brother Hu also spent a lot of money.

In order to show Lu Yiyi's thinness, he followed Fang Ziheng's instructions and drank some porridge at noon every day, gnawed an apple at night, and stroked his hair the next morning.

In just one week, he made himself look more like a ghost than a human being, and it looked like a human being.

It’s so funny to talk about it!

Brother Hu was originally unable to jerk off. He was so hungry every day that he and his grandson were in the mood to play with sex.

Liu Tao, the female lead, happened to live next door to him. He spent every day in his room learning pole dancing from the dance teacher hired by the crew. He also went to the bar to experience life and observe the wanton and coquettish demeanor of the bar dancers.

Every time she came back from the bar, Liu Tao would invite everyone to her room to watch her dance progress.

Every time, Brother Hu would be the first to run away after watching the show and rush to his room without anyone knowing what he was doing.

All I know is that when we met the next day, Brother Hu's spirit began to weaken at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

December 9th.

Everything is ready, and the filming of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" has officially started in Shanghai.

Due to Fang Ziheng's intentional actions, the crew kept a very low profile. Not only did they refuse any visits and interviews, they also banned some of the originally scheduled publicity.

Again, it’s difficult for movies that involve people’s livelihood issues to pass censorship, let alone the pharmaceutical industry.

"I'm Not the God of Medicine" came out ahead of schedule, and it had to take an unusual path if it wanted to be released safely.

for example

The film was shot quickly and kept a low profile before getting the Dragon Ball.

After the movie is released, all the promotional resources will be piled up to show the horror of the movie in one fell swoop.

In layman's terms, it's just a movie that stays calm before the movie is released, and uses Fang Ziheng's superior status to successfully pass the review, instead of highlighting the awesomeness of "I'm Not the God of Medicine".

Even if the relevant departments want to set up a card at that time, the film has been filmed and will be released soon, so it will not be a one-size-fits-all approach.

By the time the movie is released, the deal is already done, and then the movie will be used to stir up public opinion and trigger national discussion, thereby guiding the authorities to innovate imported drugs in advance and strive for the benefits of the majority of patients.

As for the medical interest groups, it doesn't matter. This group didn't notice the script of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" before, and they won't even notice it now.

When the finished film is released, it is not up to these people to decide whether it will be released or not. Even if there are interested people who want to block it, Hengyu Group and China Film Group are not vegetarians.

Of course!

Keeping a low profile is the principle. It is best to ensure everything is safe before the movie is released!

The Yao Shen crew filmed in a low-key manner, while the outside world was turbulent, setting off a huge war.

After Teng Huatao's "Waiting for the Wind" made a small splash, the Hua Yi brothers pinned their hopes on Feng Trousers' "Private Customization" and mobilized resources to bombard the film to maintain absolute popularity before it was released.

Feng Pants ushered in another highlight moment. He frequently appeared in interviews with the media and shouted the slogan of a bottom line of 1 billion in box office and a target of 1.5 billion.

Not to mention, as a veteran commercial director, Feng Pengtong's momentum and appeal are really not comparable to Teng Huatao.

In just 10 days, "Private Customization" was promoted by Huayi and entered thousands of households. According to the four major movie ticket purchasing APP platforms, the pre-sale box office reached 110 million.

at the same time.

Hengyu Media and Wanda Film and Television also joined the fray.

For Hengyu, "Charlotte Troubles" directed by Ning Hao has become the group's flagship project for the Lunar New Year.

Wanda Film and Television has "Police Story 2013" starring Uncle Long, Da Tiantian, and Liu Ye, which was hailed by the media as the most successful film in the 2014 Lunar New Year season.

"Private Customization" will be released on December 19.

"Charlotte" will be released on December 23.

Because "Charlotte" came out ahead of schedule, "Police Story 2013" was forced to be released four days later than its previous release, and was changed to December 27.

The three high-profile movies were all released within four days of each other, very close together.

From the moment the schedule was announced, filmmakers from the entire entertainment industry, major film and television companies, even celebrities and the general audience paid attention.

Especially the audience, they all sighed: Some of them watched this year’s show!

Needless to say, Feng Pants, although "1942" did not do well at the box office, the film quality has indeed reached the top level.

This time it's back with a comeback, and it's still good at comedy.

Fans are looking forward to it, and people in the industry are optimistic that Feng Pants has a good chance of regaining the title of the Lunar New Year champion.

Ning Hao.

The first emerging director in the new century, he became famous with "Crazy Stone" and has been favored by countless seniors and movie audiences.

Last year's "Blissful Heart" made 680 million, and it firmly entered the ranks of commercial directors.

This year, Ning Hao left Pony Galloping to accept the capital injection from Hengyu Media. Not only was he not affected, but he was even more favored by the outside world.

Anyone in the know knows that "Charlotte Troubles" is an adaptation of Happy Twist's book, and those in the know know that it is a film controlled by Hengyu Media.

Ning Hao has opened another comedy film.

And almost everyone who pays attention to movies has specifically checked out Happy Twist, a theater owned by Fang Ziheng.

Heng Yu, Ning Hao, and Kaixin Mahua all know with their toes that "Charlotte" is definitely a good movie.

Otherwise, Hengyu would not be used to take the lead in this year’s Lunar New Year!

Both comedies were well-watched, and I look forward to the next Enter the Dragon.

And "Police Story 2013" is even more prestigious.

As the first police film series in the entertainment industry on Hong Kong Island, Uncle Long used this series to widen the gap with other top stars in Hong Kong Island and gain popularity to enter Hollywood for the second time.

After many years, the classic is reopened, and Liu Ye, the first person of the Mesozoic generation in the Mainland, and Da Tiantian, the new four-star actress, are invited to join the show.

It can be said without mercy that the audience's expectations for "Police Story 2013" are even higher than those of the two comedies.

Especially viewers who like Uncle Long are looking forward to him recreating famous scenes from the classic series.

Furniture war god!

In addition to the above three movies that have received the most attention, there are several other movies during the Lunar New Year period that have aroused heated discussions.

"Anti-Drug", which will be released on November 29, stars Louis Koo, Liu Qingyun and Zhang Jiahui as the three best actors.

It was released for half a month, and the total box office was less than 200 million, which wasted the hard work of three movie stars.

Speaking of which, when exchanging projects with China Film Group last year, Chen Yu asked Fang Ziheng if he wanted to invest.

Fang Ziheng refused at the time and voted for another movie "The Storm" and got 20% of the share.

The second movie that has aroused heated discussions is "No Man's Land", which was released on December 3.

Also directed by Ning Hao, the film, which has been banned for many years, made a box office of 137 million in the first week of release.

Although it took a big dive in the second week, it still took over 80 million at the box office, bringing the total box office to 240 million.

240 million!

For a movie with a total investment of less than 10 million, it is a huge profit, a huge profit.

Even more awesome than Fang Ziheng's first movie "The Unknown"!

According to the box office trend, "No Man's Land" has a stable box office of 300 million.

Although the media did not focus on this movie, they focused most of their attention on Ning Hao.

There are two movies released in the same month, and they are also Lunar New Year movies. Ning Hao's luck can be said to be unique, and he has become widely famous in a short period of time.

If "Charlotte Trouble" is a big hit again and reaches the 1 billion box office club, Ning Hao will instantly join the forefront of Chinese commercial directors and become one of the countless famous directors.

The third film that has aroused heated discussions is the Hong Kong police and gangster film "Storm", which is controlled by Anle Film and Television and participated by Hengyu.

The film stars Andy Lau, Yao Chen, and Lin Jiadong. It is jointly distributed by Hengyu Media and Bona and will be released on December 12.

"The Storm" is the only film that Fang Ziheng selected for participation from China Film Group last year.

Another film, "The Return of the Great Sage", still replaced the control rights with "囧".

"The Storm" did not disappoint him either. Hengyu and Bona worked hard at the same time, and it achieved a box office of 198 million in the first four days.

Compared with the previous life, it was a full 30 million more.

The box office trend is very stable. According to predictions, even if it needs to face "Private Customization" in the new week, "The Storm" is still expected to reap hundreds of millions in box office.

December 17th.

Magic City.

On a slightly old street with countless tall banyan trees on both sides.

Countless citizens stood on the side of the street, looking at a store selling adult health products diagonally across the street.

The name of the store: Prince Indian Oil!

"Damn it, isn't that Xu Zheng? Why is he selling Viagra here?"

"You're stupid, you must be here to film a movie!"

"What movie? I haven't heard that he has a new movie!"

"Brothers, don't you have access to an Internet cafe at home? Xu Zheng is the leading actor in Fang Ziheng's new film "I'm Not the God of Medicine"!"

"What? "I'm Not the God of Medicine" doesn't tell the story of Viagra!"

"It's hard to say, Fang Laolu is pinching his hands, who knows if he hits Mo Zi, be careful!"

"Let's go over and have a look. Ask the crew if they want any extras. I don't want any wages. I just give you a box of health care products!"

"Yes, we can help the film test the medicine ourselves."

"Test medicine. Indian sacred oil?"

"Sacred oil, your sister, who would apply divine oil these days? Do you understand Viagra?"

After many young people discussed it, they bravely walked across the street to the set and negotiated with the employees who were maintaining order.

The employee was an executive assistant director. Hearing everyone's requests made his head spin. He couldn't reveal the plot of the movie, so he could only apologize.

"Everyone, I'm really sorry. The crew's scenes on this street haven't had any big scenes recently, and they don't need extras."

"How about we come back when we need it in a few days?"

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up.

It really needs an extra act!

"Encore, encore, okay, we've decided on this group of performers!"

"Brother, help me tell Fang Ziheng that we don't need money, just ask him to give us each a box of health care products."

"Haha, give each person a box of Indian sacred oil!"

"Viagra is fine too, give me two boxes!"

"Damn it, you've finished eating, and you're not afraid of bursting!"

"I'm afraid of you, but I'm in good health!"

After receiving satisfactory answers, everyone put their arms around each other and left with joy and laughter.

The executive deputy director was delighted to hear that he was in good health and had good health viagra.

Inside the store.

Fang Ziheng sat in front of the monitor and carefully looked at the layout of the store several times. After feeling that there was no problem, he announced the start of filming.

He waved to Xu Zheng, Brother Hu, and Li Shang, who played the owner of the small hotel next door, and said with a smile: "Come on, let's go through it officially."

"No problem, director."

Li suggested happily and walked out of the store with Brother Hu, who was wearing a mask.

By the way, Li Shang is the Governor Cao in "The Best in the World", a veteran actor.

Xu Zheng put on an old pajamas that had been washed and faded, put on a towel and went into the back room.

Ten seconds later.

Fang Ziheng gave the order.

"Everyone in your place!"

"Actors prepare!"

"Scene 10, one shot at a time, let's begin!"

The camera rises from outside the street and takes an oblique shot of the Indian oil shop.

After three seconds, switch to camera No. 2 and aim at the main entrance from inside the store at a low angle.

"Old Cheng!"

Outside the door, two figures lifted the curtain, and the owner of the small hotel played by Li Shang pushed the door open with Brother Hu.

Li suggested taking the lead, and Brother Hu followed behind him with a hunched back, his head slightly lowered, and wearing a mask, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.

"Old Cheng!"

After shouting twice in succession, Xu Zheng came out. He had just finished cleaning his teeth and hadn't had time to wash his face.

Seeing him, Li suggested to get straight to the point: "Introduce me, old neighbor, surnamed Lu, Lu benefit!"

"Boss Cheng!"

Brother Hu straightened up slightly, took a step forward and reached out his hand to greet Xu Zheng: "Hello, boss Cheng!"

Xu Zheng looked indifferent, touched Brother Hu lightly, only glanced at him and turned away.

What kind of neighbor is this? I’ve never seen it before!

Immediately, while picking up the towel on his shoulder and wiping the ointment foam on the corner of his mouth, he looked at Li Suggestion: "What's the matter?"

"He wants to do a small business with you and bring some medicine to India!"

"Bring medicine!"

Xu Zheng was stunned, frowned and stared at Li, suggesting: "Smuggling!"

"Ce Niang, isn't this all about smuggling?"

Li was happy after hearing the suggestion, and spoke in a nonchalant tone with a louder voice.

At this time, the camera suddenly pushed in front of Xu Zheng, giving him a close-up.

He lowered his head subconsciously, not daring to look at Li Shang's eyes, and secretly scolded him for talking too much.

old man!

Just bring random people here, and talk nonsense!

Li Shang was too lazy to talk to him. He flicked the jacket on his shoulders and said, "You guys can talk among yourselves. I'll leave first."

With that said, he put his hands behind his back and left leisurely.

"Click!"

At the end of this beat, Fang Ziheng waved his hand to stop.

He studied the footage on the monitor carefully. The plot was smooth and the actors acted well, but he always felt that there was something missing.

Soon, he realized something was wrong.

The lights dimmed a bit, and several close-ups failed to capture the faces and expressions of Xu Zheng and Li Suggestion clearly.

After finding the problem, he waved to everyone: "OK, let's do it again!"

"The photography team, the lighting is not enough, add two lights for Xu Zheng and Teacher Li to take a clear close-up of them."

"Understood, director!"

Soon, the second time begins.

This time the lighting made up for it, perfectly showing Xu Zheng's poor and embarrassed expression. Even if he had just woken up and brushed his teeth, he couldn't hide his sad look.

Li suggested that he was still very leisurely and showed his enthusiasm in promoting business for his neighbors.

After passing it over for the second time, Fang Ziheng added another line.

After three consecutive takes, the actors became more and more into a state of transition and the filming continued.

Half past twelve noon.

Three scenes of Xu Zheng and Hu Ge's rivalry were filmed consecutively.

Fang Ziheng saw that it was almost done and announced with satisfaction that the work would end early.

"Ka, very good, I'll take pictures here first today."

"Put the food on, everyone eats first."

Later, he summoned Xu Zheng and Wen Muye and told them that during his absence, they would be jointly in charge of the crew.

"Zhengzi, you continue to lead the actors to refine the script and delve deeper into everyone's characters and behind-the-scenes stories."

"Old Wen, if you take the scenes behind the set with the crew, you can shoot some architectural shots and side scenes first."

"Director, just watch."

The two agreed with a smile. They are both directors, so they naturally know how to work together.

3pm.

Fang Ziheng rushed to Hongqiao Airport in the magical capital and boarded a plane to the imperial capital.

The Lunar New Year holiday is here, and many major dramas are being released one after another.

He had to put down the filming of Medicine God and go back to sit in charge for a while.

Especially "Charlotte", this movie achieved quite good results in its previous life.

In this life, the movie will be released two years ahead of schedule. Will it be able to repeat its path of defiance and show its super-class level?

Nothing is known!
