Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

The whole crew was stunned.

What kind of trick is this?

But it doesn't matter to the employees. They are paid daily wages anyway, and they get one day's wages for one day's work. It doesn't matter what movie they are filming.

Several main actors were happy after reading the script.

Isn't this too funny?

In Yu Dongqing's words, it is just a nonsensical and funny film. You can make it as funny as you want.

It doesn't necessarily have to be the same as "East becomes West" in the original time and space.

Unlike "Ashes of Time", this movie was only given a symbolic salary, and the main actors did it for the sake of the two bosses and the famous director Yu Dongqing.

only.

"How long does it take to finish filming?" Liang Xiyan couldn't help but ask.

If it drags on like she did with Ashes of Time, she'll go crazy.

Unexpectedly, Yu Dongqing said: "If we want to catch up with the Chinese New Year release, we should finish filming in a month at most."

A month? !

Everyone was stunned again.

Isn't this too fast?

Is it fast?

Not fast.

It only took 27 days to shoot this film in the original time and space!

So, the same place, the same group of people, all of them were originally bitter and resentful, but now they suddenly turned into crazy people.

Even the old party secretary Wang Laifu, who usually likes to film and watch the excitement on the sidelines, is a little confused.

What's going on?

Why is it completely different from before?

But wearing the husband's uniform and flirting does look much better than before.

It turns out to be a boring gourd.

Yu Dongqing suspended the filming of the original "Ashes of Time" movie, and the original cast resumed shooting of another new martial arts drama "The Legend of East and West". After this news was exposed by entertainment reporters, it immediately became a hot search topic.

What's wrong with Yu Dongqing?

Could it be that the previous movie was so poorly made that investors were unwilling to do it?

Immediately, reporters rushed to Zhongwei to find out what was going on. They wanted to interview Yu Dongqing, but they declined because they were nervous about filming and had no time.

However, Yu Dongqing still said something: "It's not that "Ashes of Time" won't be filmed, but "The Story of East and West" has been filmed and will continue to be filmed after the spring of next year."

"What's the relationship between "Ashes of Time" and "East and West"? Same characters, but different stories."

Of course, Yu Dongqing had to call Meili, who had returned to Yanjing a long time ago, and ask her to come to Zhongwei to continue filming.

Meimei naturally listens to her husband's words, and she has also seen the script of "East and West", which is simply too funny!

"Husband, should I take Lele with me this time?" Mingliang asked.

"No, it's so cold in the northwest and the conditions are not good. What should I do if my child gets sick? Besides, it won't take long. You can go back in half a month at most."

"So fast?"

"Of course, I am also planning to finish filming in early December and return to Yanjing early." Yu Dongqing said with a smile.

Yu Dongqing really means what she says.

On December 3, just 20 days before the start of filming, the script of "East and West" was finalized, and the crew was temporarily disbanded, and filming will continue after the spring of next year.

Before leaving, as usual, everyone went to a famous ice cube mutton hot pot restaurant.

It is said that during the war, Genghis Khan ordered the soldiers to smash the ice and put it into their helmets, then put the mutton in, and then made a fire to melt the ice water and cook the mutton at the same time. Later, they found that the food tasted different from usual, and it tasted more delicious! After that, it became a delicacy to reward the three armies.

Yu Dongqing tasted it and it tasted really good.

What I drank was Ningxia’s unique wolfberry wine. The alcohol content was not high and it was suitable for all ages.

During the dinner, Shu Wenrong was a little drunk, and he said to Yu Dongqing in his Cantonese Mandarin: "Director Yu, I really admire you, a person can actually make such a completely different style of film, let alone you director. , it was just a few of us acting it, and we almost went crazy."

Liang Xiyan and several other main actors present nodded in sympathy.

Yu Dongqing laughed and said nothing.

It's really nothing.

I think back in the original time and space, the two films were shot at the same time!

Director Liu Zhenwei once said this:

"They were filming "Ashes of Time" in the morning and "Dong Cheng" in the afternoon. They were almost schizophrenic at the time. When they were filming "Ashes of Time", it was as painful as losing a family member. When they returned to "Ashes of Time", they would I’m as happy as my wife who just gave birth to a baby.”

We haven’t mastered Kungfu yet, after all, the two films were shot separately.

Of course these words cannot be said.

"Come on, come on, let me toast you all. Thank you for your hard work." Yu Dongqing stood up and raised his glass: "When the peach blossoms bloom next year, let's continue filming!"

Yu Dongqing and his party took a flight back to Yanjing on December 6. After experiencing the wind and sand in the northwest for several months, they immediately felt the warmth of home when they returned home.

Take a shower, change into home clothes, and make a cup of steaming Longjing tea. It’s really like a fairy life.

"Come, let daddy hug him." Yu Dongqing teased his son.

My son Lele is one year and one month old and cannot speak yet, but he has learned to walk.

When he heard Yu Dongqing calling him, he immediately broke away from his mother's arms and staggered over with little hands.

"Good son" Yu Dongqing held her son in her arms, pricking her son with a beard and giggling.

"Husband, are you going to start the post-production of the film soon?" Meiliang said.

"Yes, it must be completed by the beginning of January, and then the necessary road shows will be carried out, otherwise it will not be staged during the Spring Festival."

"Time is quite tight."

"It's a bit tight, but it doesn't matter. This film doesn't need to be polished. It's just a comedy." Yu Dongqing said with a smile.

"Husband, I really love you. I didn't expect you to dare to shoot like this." Meimei couldn't help but laugh when she thought of the funny scenes in the movie "East and West".

Especially Liu Yi. In "Ashes of Time", he is a blind warrior with a strong tragic color. He has a melancholy temperament, but in "East Comes West", although after Hong Qi's "torture", his ears turned into cattail fans and his mouth turned into a "fat sausage", his eyes are still charming.

Even with such a "respectable appearance", he still looked at Hong Qi affectionately with a pair of "electric eyes" and asked him:

"Isn't sex sexy?"

At that time, the beautiful girl couldn't help laughing.

Yu Dongqing smiled after hearing Mingliang's words: "For a comedy film, it needs to be funny. Besides, I have to earn some money from this film."

"Ashes of Time" will definitely lose money.

The stream-of-consciousness, non-linear fragmented narrative makes the film obscure and difficult to understand.

He also admitted that the unrestrained narrative tone of "Ashes of Time" can make people feel like they are falling into a fog if they are not careful.

"Okay, Mingliang, have you contacted the post-production company?"

"Yeah, it's the same company that produced "Swordsman". I think their skills are good. Li Wan also agreed. Are you going to go there tomorrow?"

"We can't be in such a hurry, I have to write the theme song first, and Li Wan is waiting to prepare for the release of the movie." Yu Dongqing said helplessly.
