From the Future [Entertainment]

During the Qixi Festival, there are not many movies released. Many people go to the Shen Xian with a bright smile on the poster. piece.

What's more, the reputation of this movie on the Internet is very good. Now that bad movies are rampant, a romance movie can be scored as 9.0, which is already quite a high praise.

The box office expectations were not too high for a low-budget film, but now that it has unexpectedly good results, the director and producer are already very satisfied.The only problem was that the leading actor couldn't be scheduled for publicity. Fortunately, the final result was not bad.

A month ago, Shen Xian and Yang Sen joined Director Du's crew, and the contract made a year ago has not come into effect until now.

Director Du's name is Du Jianguo, and he is actually young, definitely not a child born in the year Jianguo was founded. He has just turned 45 years old after all his efforts. It is actually very rare to have such a status and achievements at this age.Director Du is well-known in China, because his films almost never hit the market, and even the most unpopular subjects can become dark horses in his hands.In fact, this is not only his strong director skills, but also his rare vision for reading scripts.

As Yuhou Shengge said at that time, Director Du planned to use new actors for this film. He actually likes to use new actors, so that he can reduce a lot of expenses in terms of remuneration, and he can find some of his old friends for supporting roles. Acting in the role can save a lot of money—yes, Director Du is so stingy.The saved money can be spent on the post-production and special effects of the film, even if it is spent on the set, he is willing to spend it.

As a master of commercial films, Director Du once said a famous saying, "If I need an actor with good acting skills, I can find an actor in a literary film with a low salary. I can look good under the camera, so why should I spend tens of millions of dollars in salary to find those 'stars' who may not be good at acting? As for the box office appeal, I am enough!"

This offended a lot of people, but most of them had to admit that what he said made sense, because his habit of using newcomers has not changed, but the movies are selling well one after another.

The movie this time is actually an IP adaptation that is not too popular. The original novel is very popular, and the author of the novel is also very ambitious. He rejected the acquisition of film and television copyright by several companies. When Director Du came to the door, he would rather get a little less profit. , but also sold to Director Du, he knew that the result of casually selling his novel, which required a lot of special effects, was just a bunch of fake things that couldn't be faker.This is his hard work, and he doesn't want to be ruined casually.

After Director Du won the copyright, he didn't start filming right away. He waited for a year before filing the case. By the beginning of July this year, the actors officially joined the team.

"White Beak Chronicle", just by looking at the name, it is impossible to tell what kind of movie it is. This year's filming is the first one, "White Beak Chronicle: Lost City", in the original book, the protagonist Bai Sheng and his friend Qi Zhu collaborated , Opened a special firm to help clients deal with some special matters that they could not solve by themselves.What makes the original work stand out is not only the author's strange and wonderful imagination, but also the delicacy of the characters and specific details. The author himself is from the Department of Physics, and the things he writes are both scientific and rigorous, as well as literary romance.In fact, there are many novels written about special events these days, but almost none can be written at the level of "White Beak".

Because the original work is in the form of a unit drama, it happens to be possible to make movies one by one. It is not a big problem if the actors of the protagonist are different, as long as the story is well shot.

There are a total of six main personnel in the White Beak Office. In addition to the two absolute protagonists Bai Sheng and Qi Beak, the veteran Sun Ze is a tall and strong man with a crew cut, the hacker Tan Xinyan is a gorgeous beauty, and the logistics veteran is broken. Fat mouth and body, in fact, also has a very unusual past, even Bao Mingming, the little girl who serves tea and water, is a girl who looks sweet and delicate but is fierce and violent.

The office of six people is hidden in a commercial building in a bustling city. The upstairs is a foreign trade company, and the downstairs is a game company. The Jinhui Building is on the 4th floor. Younger sister Bao Mingming is holding the mobile phone to read the president's novel, no different from ordinary companies, but soon, she will feel strange in this place.

There are only six of them on the entire floor, because they not only work here, but in fact all six of them live here.Those legendary pasts were not mentioned at the beginning, but what is presented to the readers is such a peculiar firm.

At first glance, it was quite normal.

The handsome and popular boss Bai Sheng made the white-collar workers upstairs and downstairs full of yearning for him.Qi Beak is the exact opposite of him. He is cold, arrogant and unreasonable, but he looks equally handsome. Some girls can even substitute him into the template of those domineering presidents. Every time he hears those comments, Bao Mingming just wants to curl his lips. ,too naive.

As for Tan Xinyan, because she is so beautiful, those who pursue her can line up from the stairs on the fourth floor to the first floor, and there are big bouquets of roses brought to the office every day.However, it was rumored that her boyfriend was Sun Ze, a strong and strong man who looked fierce, which made many people shy away.In fact, the two are not that kind of relationship at all, but cousins ​​of first cousins.

The ordinary old man is not liked because he talks too much, but there is no gossip in the whole building that he doesn't know, and he is completely mingled with the cleaning workers, aunts and uncles.

Bao Mingming... used to be a leopard child, only looking at her pair of clear and bright eyes, but it is difficult to know the past.

A small firm is the home they maintain. Whenever they receive a new order, they often travel together. They are not only colleagues, but also family members.

On this day, they received a new order——

The story of Lost City is wonderful, but Bao Mingming, Lao Ding and Tan Xinyan are actually people who stay behind in the company, and they don't have much role in the show, but Tan Xinyan's voice has more opportunities to "appear".But in any case, these three are also important personnel, and one cannot just choose an actor. Therefore, Director Du made use of his excellent popularity and brought in three outstanding actors, all of whom were actors who had been popularized by him or his actors. old friend.

The role of Bai Sheng is played by Shen Xian, Qi Beak and Yang Sen, and the remaining Sun Ze is also a newcomer. Director Du is very special. He personally went to meet a friend from the army and picked up Li Jia, a real retired special soldier, to join the crew.

Yuhou Shengge once said that Director Du is a very interesting person, but he didn't quite understand it at the time, but after joining the group, he realized that it was indeed the case.

Shen Xian has made so many movies and met several directors. This is the first time he has seen such a director.

It's midsummer in July, and Director Du was wearing a floral shirt and big pants, and just walked over with his slippers on. He is actually not ugly, and because of his round face and dimples, he looks too young for his actual age. Too much, 45 years old looks the same as [-] years old, but there are fine lines of growth rings in the corners of the eyes.

"Since you have joined my group, you are my people." Director Du said with a smile, "Come on, Xiao Huang, let's do a dance for everyone."

The actress Huang Huihui, who was called to talk about Xinyan, rolled her eyes in an inelegant manner, "Director Du, you know that I am physically uncoordinated and can't dance." In the movie, he was born with physical incoordination, but he let himself act as a dancer. Those three months were like death and life.

Director Du, this bastard would laugh at her every time he saw her, so naive or not!

After molesting a few familiar actors, Director Du's eyes fell on Shen Xian and Yang Sen. He walked around the two of them a few times and praised, "Oh, this condition is better than I thought. Butt legs, not bad."

Shen Xian: "..."

Yang Sen: "..."

This kind of remark can definitely be called molesting. What's rare is that when Director Du said such a remark, he felt too joking, and it didn't make people feel disgusted at all.

"Come on, let's play a game for a while before filming starts, let's build up our relationship before filming."

Shen Xian: "..."

Yang Sen: "..."

But I have to admit that the atmosphere of the entire crew of Director Du's play is quite relaxed and interesting. The staff members are all dressed casually, with smiles on their faces. Quite professional.

"It's really interesting." A voice came from Shen Xian's ear.

Bai Sheng wears glasses, but they are actually silver-rimmed glasses without prescription.Shen Xian simply made a special pair of glasses with a small panoramic camera installed on the frame, and the super brain of "Jianghu Dream" is peeking at the outside world through the lens.

This is an appointment with her, so that she can better understand what it is to make a movie, how to shoot the camera, and what kind of auxiliary tools the staff need.

She watched with interest, then sighed.

It's really interesting.
