China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 113 Movie Final

Just after Children's Day, DreamWorks officially announced the starring role of "Source Code".

The male lead is Hu Ge, and the female lead is Wan Qian.

Compared to Chen Jingxing's appointment with Hu Ge, Wan Qian really emerged from thousands of troops, and there are still many actresses competing for this role.

The candidate for the heroine was decided by Xu Wenshen, while Chen Jingxing took the time to fly back to the capital and finally decided after watching the audition.

As a domestic front-line male actor, Hu Ge also has many fans and a high national popularity. This news naturally triggered reports from a group of entertainment media.

It has provided another wave of popularity to "Source Code" and even "Signal".

This is of course a marketing node chosen by DreamWorks. Film and television dramas must maintain exposure from project preparation to late filming, not to mention large projects such as "Signal" and "Source Code".

The best marketing result is that it is always in the public eye until it is released, which is also a major reason why film and television dramas need popular stars.

For example, the fight between two top fans of Luo Chen and Wu Tingxuan has kept "Signal" popular, and of course "Fantasy City" also benefited from it.

"I'm talking about domestic box office. How many movies are there in our country with a box office of over one billion? This must not reduce expectations a little, so there will be surprises at that time."

I felt guilty for a moment and swallowed if I wanted to refute it. I picked up the script again and watched the last scene left in the whole film.

Luo Chen looked disdainful: "Let your imagination go a little bit, Brother Lei, "Fatal Identity" has exceeded one billion."

Chen Jingxing looked at Lei Jiayin's face coming over and said angrily: "Don't worry, if there are suitable characters in the future, it will be given priority for you, but if "Signal" fails, there will definitely be no next time."

"cut! Not bad!" Chen Jingxing shouted with the guide, and then plucked his palms a few more times.

Chen Jingxing finally knew the difficulty of filming a fighting scene. It was just a turtle punch. It did not involve more complicated tricks in action and martial arts films, and there was no need to use Wiya and Tuning Fork.

Lei Jiayin, who dyed gray-white hair and put on old-age makeup, came up with a smirk and patted Luo Chen's shoulders hard.

Chen Jingxing nodded and said, "It's almost the same."

When he thought of the fighting scenes in "Source Code", he had a headache. After all, in order to make it more commercial, he wanted to make the fights in the carriage in "Source Code" more designed. He must have some tricks, and also a bit of punch-to-flesh feeling.

Luo Chen has also made many movies over the years. Not to mention how excellent his acting skills are, he has at least mastered a certain method. "Signal" is not a movie that explores acting skills. In fact, there are very few NGs in the literature department.

This is a scene where the male protagonist played by Luo Chen fights a serial killer. The actor Wang Pei'an, who plays a serial killer, wore blue gloves on his right hand, for the purpose of making special effects in the later stage.

In fact, he himself wondered that although he was not a dancer when he was in the Korean group, the trainees' basic skills were still there. Has he not returned to the stage for too long and his body deteriorated?

Luo Chen touched the corner of his mouth and made a hissing sound. His shoulders and back were all blue and purple. He didn't master the strength when he fell to the ground. He rolled his eyes at Lei Jiayin's joke.

Chen Jingxing laughed dryly: "I just made a joke. You haven't made a public appearance for three months. Fans must miss you. Hurry up and accept the endorsement, pat the advertisement, take a break, rest, don't worry, I will notify you first if there is a role that suits you next time."

...

"Fatal Identity" has a final box office of nearly 100 million US dollars except China and the Asia-Pacific region, with a global total box office of more than 1.2 billion yuan.

As soon as the words were finished, most of the crew made cheers.

"Okay, prepare to transfer the venue, rest for half an hour, and we will shoot the last scene."

Luo Chen looked at Chen Jingxing with some grief: "If you give me the male protagonist of "Source Code", I can share the joys and sorrows with you."

After all, good fighting design can also bring a better viewing experience to the audience.

"How can the National Day holiday be able to earn 400 million or 500 million box office?"

"How can that be? Director, I heard that this film is scheduled for National Day?"

The martial arts scene is really difficult. It was so difficult that the scene was filmed for almost an afternoon, and even the back was blushed and purple. After all, even if there was a stand-in, the actors still had to do it in full, and the editing was integrated.

So in fact, Luo Chen has not dealt with the dividends brought to him by "Fatal Identity", let alone the new generation of Korean idols such as Wu Tingxuan and Lu Han have returned one after another, so advertisers will not wait for him all the time.

Lei Jiayin's fighting scene was finished the day before, which is strange. Although he has never filmed any action scenes and martial arts films, he can make it easy for a little trick, and the action is more appropriate, and he can pass three steps.

As he moved, the crew members also clapped and formed a loud echo in the empty studio.

"Young man, you will basically say goodbye to costume dramas from now on. You can hurt yourself with such an action. The director dares not hang a wire for you. Haven't you danced before?"

Luo Chen took a breath and showed a relieved smile. It was because this scene had been filmed too many times.

Luo Chen naturally knew the right way, so he just complained casually. After all, which actor is not jealous of the "Source Code" cake? But he is also a content person. It is rare to be able to act in Chen Jingxing's two dramas in a row. Moreover, he has indeed accumulated a lot of endorsements, and there are some commercial activities waiting to be handled.

However, Hu Ge has filmed many martial arts scenes, and he should have crushed Luo Chen in terms of fighting scene experience. In addition, he also invited a first-class martial arts team in China. It may not be as difficult as today's scene.

As the saying goes, "Diet Identity" will be held at night. After the popularity of "Fatal Identity" in China, it will be the Chinese New Year soon. Not long after the New Year, he devoted himself to the filming of "Signal". Although Chen Jingxing did not clearly say that actors are not allowed to perform in the commercial performance, obviously no one will take time to participate in commercial activities during the filming.

"Director, where are me?"

Chen Jingxing said jealously to Lei Jiayin and Luo Chen: "You are finally liberated, and I will immediately join another crew to film."

Chen Jingxing was still under a lot of pressure when he listened to the two's arguments about the box office.

The last scene dialogue is simple, so for most people, the three-month shooting period is officially over. They can leave the studio in Hengdian early tomorrow morning and go back to their own homes.

After all, it is the National Day holiday, and the box office of 500 million and 600 million is probably not up to the requirements of the National Film Festival Qin Zhong and "supporting the box office market".

Although the National Day holiday will definitely not be the only movie "Signal" released, other studios besides Guochuang and United Theater will definitely also have the highlight of airdrops during the National Day holiday.

But if you can't win the box office championship then, you may not be able to make a difference with Qin Zhonghe.

When it comes to Guoying, there is another trouble that Chen Jingxing needs to deal with - "Operation Mekong".
