China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 5 DreamWorks

"cheers!"

“I wish Director Chen’s movie a great success!”

"You shouldn't be called Director Chen, you should be called Mr. Chen. I wish Mr. Chen a prosperous career and ring the bell as soon as possible to go public!"

"With tea instead of wine, I wish everyone a bright future and a successful career!"

"It's more appropriate to call me Director Chen. I trust you to call you Xiao Chen. You are talented in directing. If you really love this industry, stick to it and don't have a game mentality. I believe that you will be in the future film industry."

name."

"Mr. Chen, you are very talented. Talent can't just drink tea, it also needs to be watered by wine."

"Okay! If we don't get drunk today, I'll ask the waiter to bring a bottle of wine."

After the filming of the movie was completed, Chen Jingxing fulfilled his promise to treat everyone to a meal. The place for the treat was originally the canteen used by the Beijing Office of a certain city to entertain leaders. Later it was renamed Sanqin Hotel. The official cuisine is ranked among the best in the capital, except that it is expensive.

Other shortcomings.

Maybe it was the meal that impressed a few theater teachers, or maybe it was Chen Jingxing's performance in filming this week that impressed them. In short, although the original politeness was still there, there were more heartfelt words.

He could rent a cheap office, but he still gritted his teeth and used part of the "movie shooting funds" he had saved so hard to rent a decent storefront.

If Chen Jingxing is a migrant worker who has just left school, then naturally this cannot be said too fully. Do the people toasting at the wine table all like to drink?

Still a little dizzy.

"..."

"12.5 degrees..."

Even so, the eight actors all knew the lines of the movie script by heart. Although they all brought the script with them when they came to his house for filming, they basically didn’t need to read it. No one memorized the lines on the spot.

Memorizing their lines in advance is the most basic quality in their education and concepts.

"Will the next movie still have a theme like "Comet"? It will also be low-cost? Come on, have another drink!"

Unexpectedly, after two days, the alcohol still has not been metabolized.

…

Although Yan Xiaoyue was the matchmaker, most of the theater teachers came here for money. The script was indeed an interesting story, so that was all.

"What rich list?"

"Isn't there... something written on this bottle?"

What a cultural atmosphere.

Although you need to be low-key as a person, sometimes you need to be high-key when doing things. This is not a question of whether you care about face, but a question of how others see you and what attitude they should take to cooperate with you.

In an office in an office building.

"Lafite..."

I drank a little too much. I can’t do this again in the future.

"Senior sister, eat your food quickly. Don't just...don't just play with your phone...let me see...what are you searching for?"

"Why are you all looking at me like that?"

Fortunately, the actors he hired were too worry-free in this regard, although he could tell that most of the actors did not take the movie "Comet" to heart, even though most of them were in May Day.

The theater is also for B roles, and there are not many opportunities to appear, but the daily rehearsals of the plays are paid more attention to than the performance of this movie.

If Chen Jingxing is not satisfied with one of their performances, he can just describe what he wants, and the actors can quickly respond and change without him having to worry too much.

In the end I chose "DreamWorks".

"Look, 1982..."

But I still feel that Gao Shan is not grand enough, not fashionable enough, and does not reflect his attitude towards movies.

Although Chen Jingxing has only made one movie so far, and has only worked with eight actors for less than a week, he still has a good time getting along with them. The most important thing is that he does not need to direct the actors' performances because he is also a layman in acting.

Of course, this is all superficial. Even if you are working in the Empire State Building, it will not affect the speed of your boss's escape.

All the company's procedures have been completed, and the office naturally needs to be in place, although the rent is not cheap.

The high mountains stand still and the scenery stops.

What's more, even if you think it's a good movie after watching it, whether it will be welcomed by the audience is still a mystery.

"Well, I...I have estimated before that the next movie may require an investment of tens of millions." Director Xiao Chen, who was drinking heavily, already felt a little dizzy.

It's so useful.

Coupled with the title and logo of Paramount in the previous life, this is too suitable.

Originally, Chen Jingxing thought of a company named "Gaoshan", Gaoshan Film and Television Culture Production and Communication Co., Ltd.

A good working environment can increase employees' confidence in the company. Even fraudulent companies know that renting high-priced office buildings increases Liek's confidence in the company. The same is true when replacing Lik with employees.

Everyone looked at Chen Jingxing with admiration in their eyes, and exchanged glances with each other to confirm that they had the same idea.

Fortunately, Chen Jingxing can be regarded as a little genius. Movies are his dream, not a means of livelihood. It is impossible to never drink alcohol in the future, but he can still do it by drinking less.

"This Director Chen...

My parents are so interesting."

"No wonder... no wonder it went up so quickly. The temperature is indeed a bit high..."

However, "Comet" is a small movie with a strong sense of suspense and reasoning. It is a movie where the script plays a major role. Therefore, during the filming process, the eight actors felt more and more like the movie.

Well, everyone feels that although Director Xiao Chen is a second-generation rich man, he is not a rich second-generation man who plays for fun. At least he has a serious attitude towards movies and performances.

Chen Jingxing taught himself a lot of filming techniques and directing-related knowledge in four years of college, but he didn’t get too involved in acting, and he himself had no acting talent. Of course, training actors does not necessarily require the director to be able to act himself. The ability and method of training actors can.

It can be mastered through practice, but Director Xiao Chen is not prepared to spend time and energy on training the actors' acting skills in his first debut film.

Therefore, many bad movies made by actors do not necessarily know that they are bad movies when they first take the role. In many cases, they only find out that they are bad movies after the edited finished product is released. The actors themselves may not even know that they have made the movie before it is released.

What is it.

The company name is DreamWorks.

Some people have even filtered in their minds which billionaires surnamed Chen in China can spend tens of millions on gambling for their children... Ah no, it is impossible to make a movie without assets of hundreds of millions or more, these days

Listed companies may not be able to generate tens of millions of funds at once.

"You haven't sold "Comet" yet, so you're starting to prepare for the second project? Director Chen's pace is too fast!"

"Teachers, to be honest, I am already preparing for the next project. The script is almost completed. I am very satisfied with the cooperation in "Comet". The performances of several teachers are also great. I hope we can continue to cooperate."

opportunity.”

"No, no, you are dazzled. What I just searched for is...the alcohol content of the glass of wine you drank."

Good actors can make directors addicted, which is why some directors will stick to a few familiar faces, even if they use a chef's knife for cooking, they won't be willing to change it.

The company's own operating conditions are fundamental, and Chen Jingxing believes that with the cultural products of a parallel universe to rely on, the company's future is still very bright.

Now that Mr. Gongzi is really preparing to delve deeply into the film and television industry, and the company has been established, there may be opportunities to deal with him in the future. Although the drama actors in the May Day Theater all have their own high standards, they do not reject film and television dramas. Several pillars of the theater troupe

But they have made a lot of movies and TV dramas, not to mention that movies are also an art. Who doesn’t want to make money? The salary paid by the theater troupe can only be considered as enough for food and clothing. Having high aspirations does not mean that you must live a life of poverty.

Chen Jingxing leaned on the seat and rubbed his temples.

For movies, the process from words to images is like the transition of matter from the microscopic world to the macroscopic world. It is quite metaphysical. Maybe the director can grasp this process, and the actors will often be confused.

DreamWorks Studios.

Aren’t movies meant to create dreams for people?

Of course, the main reason is that there is no film and television company named DreamWorks in this dimension.

Paired with Paramount's title and logo, it's the DreamWorks sitting on the top of a mountain.
