Chapter 757: Filming begins
The development of the entertainment industry in Taiwan can be traced back to the 1950s and 1960s.
At that time, the film industry had just started in Taiwan. Later, with the rise of the television industry, the entertainment industry in Taiwan began to enter its golden age.
The entertainment industry is a kind of cultural industry. Whether the entertainment industry in a place is developed is closely related to the local political and economic conditions.
Why can Hollywood sell movies all over the world and be popular in countries around the world?
Because the country is strong, the economic and military strength of the United States are the best in the world.
It is human nature to admire the strong. In the globalized environment, with the support of the United States, the world's largest country, various American blockbusters in Hollywood can naturally be unimpeded and popular.
Economic prosperity is the foundation for the development of a region's entertainment industry.
In the last century, Taiwan was collectively called the Four Asian Tigers with Hong Kong Island, South Korea, and Singapore. With rapid economic development and affluent people, the entertainment industry naturally entered its golden age of development.
When talking about the entertainment industry in Taiwan, it is often combined with the entertainment industry in Hong Kong Island and called the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry.
The Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry in the 1980s and 1990s was an era of gods fighting, with various superstars emerging in an endless stream.
The two Zhou Yicheng, the four kings, Zheng Yijian, Zhang Guorong, Liang Chaowei, Louis Koo, Chyi Chin, Zhou Huajian, Wang Jie, Tong Ange, and the Little Tigers who have been active until now, etc.
The Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry has achieved remarkable achievements in pop music, movies, TV series, variety shows and other fields.
However, with the development of time, the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry, which relies on the entire Asian market, has inevitably begun to decline after reaching its peak.
In the 20 years since the 21st century, this situation has become more and more obvious.
Today's Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry has entered an embarrassing situation of a lack of successors.
The older generation of stars are getting older, but there has been no newcomers who can take over.
In Hong Kong Island, Mr. Guanxi repaired a computer and directly repaired all the more popular male and female stars of the younger generation. The highly anticipated successor, Nicholas Tse, also became Chef Xie, and stopped doing business and started cooking.
In Taiwan, "Tiantingyan" is considered a young man supported by local capital, but after all kinds of resources are fed, his achievements are still limited.
After the incident of the most popular Peng Yuyan changing seats at the Weibo Movie Night last year, all kinds of resources were downgraded.
On the contrary, 10 years later, young stars from the mainland have grown up rapidly.
This situation is not a coincidence, but is determined by the market environment and economic environment of Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Gu Wei has come to Taiwan several times to promote his TV series.
He is quite famous here, just like the fame of F4 in China when "Meteor Garden" was the most popular.
"Gu Jian Qi Tan", "Love O2O", "Nirvana in Fire", "Eternal Love", etc., these hit dramas of Gu Wei are not only popular in China, but also have a very high number of views in Taiwan.
To be precise, these dramas are very popular throughout Asia and in countries influenced by the Confucian cultural circle.
Unlike the previous promotions, Gu Wei did not announce his itinerary to the public when he came to Taiwan to film this time, so there were no fans to pick him up after the plane landed.
He wore a mask and a hat, followed by Zhou Ye, Peng Yuchang and others, and walked out of the airport very smoothly and got on the nanny car that came to pick them up.
Gu Wei came to Taiwan several times, and what impressed him most was that it remained unchanged.
In China, whether it is from the perspective of urban construction or people's lifestyle, it changes almost every year, many things are constantly updated, and new things emerge in an endless stream.
However, in Taiwan, what it was like 10 years ago is still the same 10 years later, and the city and people's lives have hardly changed.
For example, telephone booths were once installed in domestic cities, but with the development of mobile communications in a few years, this kind of public facility was eliminated, and it is difficult to find telephone booths in domestic cities.
But in Taiwan, even in Taipei, the provincial capital, you can see many telephone booths.
"Has Xiao Ye been to Taiwan?"
"No, this is the first time."
In the black Mercedes-Benz vs900 business car, Gu Wei and others looked at the scenery outside the window and chatted.
"You are here for the first time~" Peng Yuchang said in surprise.
"It's normal. I was in school before. Even when my parents took me out for travel, they were all in China. I've been to Europe a little further.
I've been to Hong Kong Island but never to Taiwan."
Gu Wei said: "The scenery here is still good, but the urban construction is a little worse, it can't be compared with China."
Zhou Ye looked at the scenery outside the window. There were high-rise buildings, shopping malls and pedestrian streets, as well as dilapidated communities and dirty streets.
"I feel that Taipei's urban construction and architectural style are not much different from those of third- and fourth-tier cities in mainland China.
A little disappointed."
Gu Wei smiled and said: "Many buildings and streets here are very retro, which are hard to find in China. This is also the reason why we finally chose to shoot this movie here."
After entering the crew and settling down, Gu Wei also met and chatted with Wen Mu for a while.
Then all the main creators gathered together for a script reading.
"Teacher Wu Zhenyu, it's our first meeting. I'm very happy to work with you~"
In addition to the protagonist Chen Guilin, the most important characters in [Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils] are the other two wanted criminals. Aberdeen is the second wanted criminal, played by Wu Zhenyu.
"Mr. Gu, although this is the first time we meet, I have heard of your name before.
We also talked about you when we chatted with Songwen before, and it is also an honor for me to work together this time."
Wu Zhenyu kept his posture very low.
Most Hong Kong celebrities of their generation have relatively low backgrounds, are very smooth in dealing with people, and know how to survive.
Liu Dehua is one of the best.
Although Wu Zhenyu always plays the bad guy in the drama, in reality he only shows his bad guy side when dealing with some unknown celebrities.
He never offends anyone with a background or reputation.
In the variety show "Infinite Transcendence Class", as mentors, Wu Zhenyu and Er Dongsheng used all kinds of venom at the new actors who participated. However, when Xiang Zuo came on stage, even if he showed his hips, they all manually turned off the microphone, and in the end they were still confused. Use your conscience to find various angles to praise.
The script reading went very smoothly. The main actors in [Zhou Chu]'s crew are all extremely capable, and no one has any major problems in acting. In addition to getting familiar with each other, the main purpose of the script reading is to determine a tone. , so that everyone will not deviate in their understanding of the script.
The next day, the crew officially started filming.
In the morning, in the dressing room, Gu Wei's hair was shaved again, and a small area of the hairline on his forehead was shaved back. His face was also darkened. He looked much older. He looked much older than before. The style for shooting [life events] is somewhat similar.
"Brother Wei, you look quite handsome!" Zhou Ming watched Gu Wei putting on makeup and said with a smile.
There were no scenes for her in the first two days, but she still came to the set to watch other people filming, mainly to look after Gu Wei.
"My hair has been cut off and my face has turned so dark. How can I be so handsome? A cricket?"
"You look a little oily now, but not very oily. You look a bit handsome."
Zhou Ming opened his big eyes, looked at Gu Wei's face carefully, and said seriously.
Today I filmed the first scene where the protagonist appears, killing another gang boss Tietou at Lord Hong’s funeral.
This is also a scene that establishes the character of the protagonist Chen Guilin. From this scene, everyone can know what kind of person he is.
Outside a decorated mourning hall, there were group performers wearing black suits all around, and wreaths were placed against the wall.
Gu Wei was wearing a large suit and was sitting on the edge eating a box lunch. Peng Yuchang, who was wearing a yellow wig, was sitting next to him.
“I haven’t seen such a big scene in a long time, Master Hong is really impressive.
That madman really came from Taipei and killed him! "
"Who are you talking about?"
Gu Wei carefully picked up the food in the lunch box. He was really eating it and it seemed to be quite delicious.
"A man named Guilinzai~"
"What Guilinzai?"
Peng Yuchang looked around and lowered his voice.
"Damn, let me tell you, even though he is a lunatic, I really think he is pretty fierce!"
"Do you know him?" Gu Wei chewed the food with a smile on his face.
"Guilin Tsai is a young man from Ren Yinjiu of Dingzhuang Village in Zhongshan District.
Two months ago, Brother Jiu went to Hongye's casino and won more than eight million.
Master Hong refused to admit the debt, and Brother Ninth was furious and asked Guilin Tsai to collect the debt.
What do you think the result will be? "
"How did it turn out?"
"As a result, Guilin Zai took a grenade, took eight million over there, and then blew up the entire casino! Kill Mr. Hong!
Do you think he is a dick or not? "
The little gangster Golden Retriever played by Peng Yuchang has an exaggerated expression of admiration.
Gu Wei was very happy to hear what he said about himself. He ate with a smile and nodded in agreement.
"Dick~"
"Dick ha~
But after the gun shot the first bird and Brother Tietou issued the death order, it seems that Guilin Tsai is in a much worse situation." Peng Yuchang turned around and sighed, with a look of regret on his face.
The scene at the beginning of the movie is divided into two parts. One part is a chat between Chen Guilin and the gangster Golden Retriever, which explains the protagonist’s personal information and part of his character.
Then Chen Guilin walked to the mourning hall, took out his gun and shot Tietou in public. As he was leaving, he was seen by Wang Qianyuan, who played the policeman, and the two staged a chase scene.
Although the filming had just started, the scene with Peng Yuchang was too simple. The two filmed it back and forth three times, and Wen Mu just passed it.
The first two times were re-filmed because Peng Peng's lines were not good enough.
"Fortunately, if this happens again, I won't be able to eat this lunch. Fortunately, I had the foresight to know that I didn't even eat breakfast when I was filming this scene today."
After the filming ended, Peng Yuchang scratched his head: "Sorry, Brother Wei, it was because of me."
"I'm kidding you, I only passed the first scene three times after we started filming, which shows that both of us performed well.
Thank you very much for your hard work for today’s scene. It’s finished as soon as the filming starts. I’ll treat you to dinner tonight as a finishing party.”
Gu Wei smiled and patted Peng Peng on the shoulder, then went over to Wen Mu's side to discuss with him the shooting of the chase scene.
The crew had lunch at noon, and Zhou Ming was using his cell phone while eating.
"Brother Wei, have you seen the news about Zheng Shuang's secret sister?"
He ate a lot of box lunches during the morning filming and was not hungry at all at noon, but Gu Wei still asked his assistant to prepare a small bowl of porridge and some fruit for him.
"News, what news?"
Zhou Ming raised his head with a gossipy look on his face.
"Yesterday Zheng Shuang participated in a live broadcast on a medical beauty platform. She asked the doctor and expert whether tooth extraction can slim down the face?
The doctor said there is no face-slimming needle that works.
Then Zheng Shuang said, "Who said you can slim down your face?"
After the live broadcast ended, Sister Mi’s fans and Zheng Shuang’s fans started arguing online.
A lot of news is reporting on this now.”
Yang Mi once said in an interview that she had four wisdom teeth removed and her face lost a lot of weight. Zheng Shuang could hardly name him when he said this.
It’s not surprising that the two fans are at odds.
"Haha, Shuangzi is still the same upright girl as always." Gu Wei smiled and didn't care. This level of quarrel was just a small fight, and no one would pay attention to her in a short time.
"Brother Wei, you don't like Zheng Shuang?" Zhou Ming could hear the sarcasm in Gu Wei's tone.
"When I first debuted, I filmed a movie with her, "Gu Jian Qi Tan", in which Mi Sister and I starred, and Zheng Shuang played the second female lead.
What sounds good to her is that she is straightforward and careless, but what sounds bad to her is a crazy and careless person.
I don't like her or her ex-boyfriend."
Zhou Mo nodded. Of course she knew who Zheng Shuang's ex-boyfriend was.
As a die-hard fan of her boss, she knew that there was a conflict between Gu Wei and Zhang Han back then, and there was quite a stir due to the casting of "Shanshan Is Coming".
However, after that, Gu Wei's promotion was too fast, and the gap between him and Zhang Han became wider and wider, making it difficult for the two to compare together.
At the end of December, "Manslaughter" was released in its third week, with a total box office of 1.286 billion, followed closely by "Ip Man 4", with a total box office of over 600 million.
After filming for a few days with the crew of [Zhou Chu], Gu Wei took a day off and flew back to Changsha to attend Mango Channel's New Year's Eve concert.
This year, Mango Channel has invited many popular celebrities in the industry for New Year's Eve. As the boss of a local channel and deeply involved in the entertainment industry, Mango Channel still has to give face to invite many celebrities.
Gu Wei also has many friends participating in this year's Mango Channel New Year's Eve, such as [Rocket Girls 101] with Yang Mi, Yang Zi and his assistant.
Gu Wei sang one of his previous English songs [Sold Out] solo in the finale. Although there is no new song this year, this song is classic enough.
"Sister Mi, you are dressed very beautifully today, and your stage effect will be very good soon."
There were two rehearsals in the afternoon, and Gu Wei chatted with Yang Mi, who was also attending the New Year's Eve.
She has two songs tonight, one is "Wild Wolf DISCO" with Teng Gerer and Wang Chenyi, and the other is "Little Lucky" with Zhou Bi.
Dami Mi was wearing a low-cut long skirt covered with sequins. Her plump bodice trembled slightly when she walked, which was extremely eye-catching.
"When was I not beautiful?" Yang Mi was very grateful for Gu Wei's compliments, but she habitually quarreled with him.
"Will the party really be sung later?" Gu Wei asked a sensitive question.
Yang Mi rolled her eyes at him when she heard this.
"Of course I will sing. I have specially practiced these two songs."
