Two days later, Cao Gong temporarily left the crew of "Kuang Biu" and was invited to visit the set.

This invitation to visit the set was also a helpless move.

It can be understood as a way to repay a favor, so it is reasonable to visit the set.

Cao Gong has already spent half a day to visit the set at Longhu Mountain, the filming site of the live-action movie "Under the Alien".

Cao Gong brought things to visit the set, and when he saw that the filming was still going on the set, he did not go up to disturb them.

Standing behind the director, Cao Gong took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth, then lit it.

He smoked and watched the director directing the play, and did not speak.

In the set, Hu Xianxu was filming his part seriously.

Just when watching the part directed by Wu Ershan, Cao Gong couldn't help frowning.

It's not just the part, but even the actor's look, Cao Gong couldn't help frowning.

What is this for? What is this?

"Hmm?" Cao Gong looked around and found that the long-legged actress in sexy clothes was very good.

Cao Gong, pinching his chin, looked at the long-legged actress carefully.

Looking at her appearance, is she a minority? Or a foreigner?

But no matter whether she is a minority or a foreigner, this long-legged sister with pink hair is the most beautiful and normal in the whole movie.

"Huh~" exhaled smoke, Cao Gong saw it after just watching for a while.

The plot was changed like this, and it was filmed like this, how will it end later?

Not only that, Cao Gong pointed to the script next to the director and looked at the producer.

The producer indicated that it was okay to look at it, and Cao Gong bent down and picked up the script.

Wu Ershan, who was directing the play seriously, saw someone taking his script.

He was a little angry inside. Didn't he know that the director's script could not be taken casually?

Who is so bold?

But when he turned around and looked up, he found that it was Cao Gong.

"Yo." Seeing this big guy, Wu Ershan's dissatisfaction completely disappeared.

"Here you are." Seeing that it was Cao Gong, Wu Ershan stood up.

"Well, I've been here for a while." Cao Gong, holding the script, snapped his fingers with a cigarette in his mouth: "I brought some drinks to cool down everyone, let everyone drink some drinks and take a rest to cool down."

"Wow, that's Cao Shuai?" Some actors in the same crew saw Cao Gong.

"Yes, so handsome." The actresses were excited when they saw Cao Gong.

Handsome guys are exciting, not to mention that he is handsome, rich and talented.

Only the tall and long-legged girl looked at this side with a puzzled face.

"Cao Shuai?"

"Na-li, don't you know Cao Shuai? Cao Gong, the richest man in Asia." Hu Xianxu introduced her with a smile.

"Ah~ That super-star with many girlfriends?" Na-li also wanted toWe are here.

"Yes, he likes beauties like you, with long legs." Even Feng Shaofeng, who was drinking a drink, was joking.

Na-li, who was wearing a pink leather jacket and pink shorts, smiled.

Obviously, she had also heard of Cao Gong, who liked girls with long legs.

And in fact, it was true. Among Cao Gong's confidantes, only one was less than 1.6 meters tall.

The others were all over 165 cm tall, which was considered tall among yellow women.

"What would you like to drink?" Feng Shaofeng courted Na-li.

But Na-li waved her hand, indicating that she could get it herself and didn't need the other party's help.

How could she not see that Feng Shaofeng had feelings for her.

However, during the period of cooperation, she had also heard some things.

Especially on the Internet, it can be seen that Feng Shaofeng had many exes, all of whom broke up.

Also having many girlfriends, Cao Gong is responsible for each one he dates.

Feng Shaofeng changes his girlfriend every once in a while.

Of course, Na Yu is not interested in this kind of culture, and there is such a big age difference between them.

On the director's side, Cao Gong took the script and read it carefully.

After reading the script, Cao Gong was sure that this movie would be finished.

"Director Wu, how much have you shot?" He returned the script to Wuershan and asked him how many scenes he had shot now.

"One third." Director Wuershan said truthfully that he had shot one third of the movie.

Cao Gong, who was smoking, also thought: "Was it after the filming of "The Legend of the Gods Trilogy" that the filming started?"

"The project was established in 2020, and then the script was completed."

"Last year, I started martial arts performance training for half a year."

"Originally, we were going to shoot after the martial arts training, but because of the delay on "The Legend of the Gods", we didn't start shooting until March this year." Director Wu Ershan briefly told Cao Gong.

After Cao Gong knew it, he just nodded and didn't ask much about it.

He also took out a cigarette and gave it to Wu Ershan, who also lit it.

Although he was worried, Wu Ershan still saw something.

"Have you read the script? What do you think of it?" Wu Ershan asked although he was afraid.

Cao Gong, who was smoking, was mentally prepared for this question.

Asking him to visit the set must be to let him read the script and chat together.

Since he was asked, Cao Gong blew smoke from his nostrils: "It depends on what you want, Director Wu?" (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

"Do you want to shoot something new, shoot something you want, or do you want word of mouth, or do you want box office?" He did not comment directly, but asked Wuershan.

"If you ask that, then I definitely want all three." Wuershan was also very straightforward.

"Then you will be disappointed." This answer is the answer to the first question just now.

Wu Ershan was also very helpless. In fact, he already had the answer in his heart.

But as a great director, he was unwilling to believe this fact.

After shooting one-third, he had a hunch that the movie was going to fail.

But even though he knew it was going to fail, he couldn't stop now, because the producers invested so much money and chose to trust him. But now he was directing one-third of the way and felt that it was going to fail, so he stopped?

He couldn't stop at all.

This is the same as what Wang Jing said about Zhang Yimou's "The Great Wall".

When Zhang Yimou shot one-third, he knew that the movie was doomed.

Even Zhang Yimou himself said that when he was shooting, he had a hunch that the movie was going to fail.

But he had invested so much, he couldn't stop, he had to continue.

In the end, he was not disappointed. After the release of "The Great Wall", it was indeed rubbish.

"If you want to direct something you want, then don't touch IP-adapted movies."

"The movie "Under the Alien" has a large group of fans of the original novel."[]

"You don't understand the status of this 2D Chinese comic in everyone's heart, and you don't know how many loyal fans this Chinese comic has. If you change the plot like this, there is only one result in the end, it will be bad."

Cao Gong took the script and said, "In your script, Feng Baobao can't beat Feng Shayan?"

"In the anime, the character Feng Baobao can arm wrestle with the old Taoist priest. Not to say that he is stronger than the old Taoist priest, but at least he is as good as the old Taoist priest."

"But in your movie, he can't beat Feng Shayan? Director Wu, you are dancing in the minefield of fans of the original novel; with such a setting, if you release it, you will be scolded to death or called autistic."

He really didn't want to mock Wu Ershan, but the change was too much.

"This kind of IP is a classic IP, and there are a large number of fans of the original novel."

"When it was said that the remake was going to happen, everyone advised to let it go and not to cause trouble."

"But if you really want to shoot it, just shoot it according to the original novel and present the setting of the animation in the form of a live-action movie. In this way, there will be no problem with word of mouth, and the box office will not be bad."

"But everyone likes to challenge the fans of the original novel. You want to change the classics in the hearts of the original novel fans, and let the original novel fans spend money to watch your changes. How can you not complain about you?"

" Of course, Director Wu, you may say, I just want to shoot something that is not in the anime, I think I want something; you are right to think so, but you can go shoot other works. ”

“There is no need to put what you want in other people’s classics.”

“It’s like a classic dish that we Cantonese people love to eat, white-cut chicken.”

“We all think white-cut chicken is delicious, but you insist that adding chili is more delicious, and then you self-righteously pour oil and chili into my white-cut chicken. What do you think I will think at this time?”

Such a simple description (by Li Hao) makes everyone understand why the remake of classic IP is unsuccessful now.

It is because too many screenwriters and directors want to add what they think is good elements to these classic IPs, instead of filming the original works authentically.

"I read the script. You want to innovate and add some things you want to see. This is indeed there; but if you do this, you must be prepared for the movie to have poor box office and poor reputation."

"And if you want reputation and box office, then you should film it according to the original work."

"So I asked you, Director Wu, do you want to make the movie you want, or do you want reputation and box office?" Cao Gong handed this to Director Wu again.

His words are very clear. If you want to add what you want to see in this movie, then you have done it, but you will lose reputation and box office.

But if you want reputation and box office, then you have to give up integrating what you want.

You have to choose one of the two.

But if you want to incorporate your own ideas and get good reputation and box office, then forget it.

"Ah~" These words are hard to hear, but Wuershan knows that no matter how hard it is, it is a reminder to him.

Remind him to stop the loss in time, because only one-third of the film has been shot.

If you want to stop the loss in time, it is still in time and there is still room for recovery. .
