Rebirth of the Thousand-Faced Movie King

"No, you can't shoot like this."

Just thinking about the slow motion of the left and right hands in his previous life, Chen Ping couldn't help but feel a chill.

Furthermore, the system has just released a task.

What is required is that "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword" breaks 2 points in ratings.

2 o'clock rating In this era of multiple entertainment media, this is not so easy.

Looking at some other TV series, if the ratings exceed 1 point, they are considered small hits.

2 points, an absolute blast.

If it were shot like this in the previous life, Chen Ping didn't know if Yitian Tulong could break 1 point, but he definitely couldn't break 2 points.

and.

Having said that.

Even if there was no mission, Chen Ping would not want to make such a version.

Apart from online dramas, this is the first time that Chen Ping has been the protagonist.

No matter what, it must be a hit.

After thinking about it, Chen Ping called Wu Yu.

"Sister Wu Yu, we Sheng Teng must be the main cast member in Yitian Tulong."

"Well, didn't I tell you?"

“What is the proportion of main investors?”

"30%."

"30%... doesn't seem like much."

Chen Ping frowned: "I thought it was 50%."

"sweat……"

Wu Yu complained: "Nowadays, TV dramas are not as good as before, and the investment is hundreds of millions. Just one brokerage company cannot afford it. Moreover, even if it can afford it, not many brokerage companies are willing to do so. In addition, , major agencies also cooperate. For example, if we decide that you will be the protagonist, some other agencies will also add some actors to the crew. In this way, everyone can share the risk together and train actors together."

"Like This……"

Chen Ping nodded.

"No, do you have something to say?"

"nor."

Chen Ping was a little unsure, but he said again: "What about our Shengteng's 30% investment ratio, and how much say we have in the crew?"

"What, which actor are you going to force in?"

Wu Yu asked.

"No."

Chen Ping shook his head: "How dare I."

"Don't be afraid. This show was originally created for you, and it's not impossible for you to recruit actors if you want. Of course, the premise is that there won't be too much conflict with other investors."

"So, our Sheng Teng has a pretty big say?"

"good."

"Then I have some ideas about shooting. Can I communicate with the director?"

"What do you want to do?"

"Just chatting... After all, I play Zhang Wuji in the play. I want to communicate with the director about how Zhang Wuji should be filmed."

"Okay."

After thinking about it, Wu Yu said, "Let's do this. Director Jiang will come to the company tomorrow. Then you can have a good chat with him."

"That's no problem."

…

The next day.

Jiang Jiajun and several other assistant directors came to Shengteng.

Sheng Teng is the main investor. Naturally, the director also hopes to communicate with the main investor when filming "The Heaven Slaying the Dragon".

so.

Sometimes, in the mainland entertainment industry, directors may not actually have much status.

Only those directors who are very good can speak forcefully.

But no matter how tough you are, it’s not as tough as investors.

If investors don't invest money, it will be useless no matter how talented the director is.

Unless the director spends his own money to make the film.

"Director Jiang, congratulations on breaking the ratings record for "The Myth" directed by you."

"Mr. Wang, you are so polite. Shinhwa is originally a big IP. Brother Chen Long is the producer and Hu Ge has joined. In addition, there is also Chen Ping, a powerful actor under your company. Even if it is replaced by another ordinary director, Shinhwa will have to fire."

"Director Jiang is so humble."

You're welcome.

Jiang Jiajun continued: "Mr. Wang, I also admire your company's vision. Chen Ping has grown rapidly in recent years. It is said that he still has several dramas that have not been aired. If they are aired, he may become a first-line actor. .”

"So, I invited Director Jiang to come here this time, also for Chen Ping. I hope that Director Jiang will take care of me in future filming."

"Chen Ping is a good actor, Mr. Wang, don't worry."

Jiang Jiajun heard what Wang Jinhua meant.

The meaning is very simple.

Chen Ping will be an important artist to be cultivated by Sheng Teng in the future.

At the same time, he also sighed.

Although Chen Ping is not as famous as Hu Ge, he is well-known throughout the country with "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

But Chen Ping has a steady and steady style, and he has the support of his brokerage company behind him.

The road ahead may be longer than Hu Ge’s.

afternoon.

Jiang Jiajun met Chen Ping.

This is Chen Ping who wants to meet Jiang Jiajun.

certainly.

Even if Chen Ping didn't ask to see Jiang Jiajun, Jiang Jiajun still wanted to have a chat with Chen Ping.

Chen Ping is the protagonist of "Eternal Dragon Sword", so he wanted to share some of his shooting ideas with Chen Ping.

"Director Jiang, you are here."

In the office, Chen Ping and Jiang Jiajun met.

As soon as they met, Chen Ping hugged Jiang Jiajun: "We are working together again."

"Yes, you were still the number 5 male at that time, and now you are the number 1 male. This upgrade happened so fast that I didn't even react."

"Director Jiang, please stop teasing me. It's embarrassing to say that I am a celebrity. After filming for such a long time, apart from online dramas, this is the first time for me to be the leading actor."

"Please stop coming. It's not like you don't know how many actors in the entertainment industry have never been a leading actor in their lives. Chen Ping, tsk tsk, I see you are getting more and more handsome. I think, our version of Zhang Wuji , definitely the most handsome version of Zhang Wuji."

There are various versions in Yitian Slaying the Dragon.

Every version of Zhang Wuji is very handsome.

For example, Tony Leung's version, Ma Jingtao's version, Wu Qihua's version, Su Youpeng's version, and Deng Chao's version in previous years.

It can be said that every version of Zhang Wuji is a handsome guy.

but.

Jiang Jiajun said that Chen Ping's appearance is really higher than that of these celebrities.

With this alone, Jiang Jiajun is confident that he will dazzle countless audiences.

However, Chen Ping smiled and shook his head: "What's the use of being handsome? There are no handsome guys or beauties in the entertainment industry these days. After watching handsome guys for a long time, everyone is tired of aesthetics."

"That's what I say, but you are so handsome. I think it will take at least 10 years for everyone to get tired of your aesthetics."

"Director Jiang, this is what you said. If everyone hates me in the next 10 years, I will come to you."

"Okay, I said so."

The two talked and laughed.

After a while, Jiang Jiajun asked: "Chen Ping, have you read The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword?"

"Seen."

"I'm talking about the original."

“I even read the original work several times.”

"That's great."

Hearing that Chen Ping was an old book fan, Jiang Jiajun nodded: "This will make our conversation smoother."

"What do you think of the previous versions of Yitian Slaying Dragon?"

"let me see."

In his mind, Chen Ping compared the various versions, and then said: "The ones that I am more impressed by are Wu Qihua's version, Su Youpeng's version, and Li Lian's continuous filming version."

"Where's Deng Chao's?"

"I'm not very impressed. Maybe it's because it doesn't have much new ideas."

"Indeed."

Jiang Jiajun also lamented: "There are not just these versions of Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying. If we count all the versions, there are as many as 14 versions. With so many versions, I thought it was okay when I first started watching it. But, more and more, more and more With the emergence of new versions, the audience's tastes have become more unique. In the past, people would rush to watch a casual film, but now if there is no new idea in the film, the audience will not buy it."

"Director Jiang, you are right."

Chen Ping also nodded.

Jiang Jiajun is also a very capable director.

Moreover, Jiang Jiajun has made many martial arts films.

Before filming The Legend of the Condor Heroes, I also filmed The Legend of the Condor Heroes.

Although Director Jiang's version of photography and sculpture is not necessarily very classic, the evaluation is okay.

but.

Perhaps it was because the Condor Shooting did not meet Jiang Jiajun's expectations, so he put his greater thoughts on relying on the sky to slay the dragon.

Immediately, Jiang Jiajun continued: "So, in this version of ours, I will make more innovations. The first one is to reduce the green screen and show everyone the vastness of the entire world in a more real-life way."

"Many actors also complained about green screens."

"hehe."

Jiang Jiajun smiled and said: "The second innovation is that I will innovate the martial arts in martial arts."

"What kind of innovative method?"

"Chen Ping, look. In the previous Yitian version, most of the fights were relatively unreal, or not very aesthetic. This time, I decided to use upgraded shooting. I used a high-speed camera to capture all kinds of exciting fighting actions... "

While talking, Jiang Jiajun also explained to Chen Ping what upgrading photography meant.

The so-called upgraded shooting means that a high-speed camera operates 25 frames per second at a very high speed, and can shoot it into 400 frames, 800 frames, or even 1,200 frames. When the audience sees the original 25-frame picture, it will last for a long time, and then they can see a very smooth slow motion.

Listening to Jiang Jiajun excitedly explaining the upgraded shooting, Chen Ping felt a little chilly.

As expected, he was afraid of whatever might come his way.

In the previous life, 90% of the audience complained about Jiang Jiajun's slow motion.

This guy doesn't know what he's thinking.

Perhaps because of his enthusiasm for upgrading shooting technology, when Jiang Jiajun directed, every scene was in slow motion.

Archery is in slow motion, sword dancing is in slow motion, blocking is in slow motion, sword swinging is in slow motion, and falling to the ground is in slow motion.

Even drinking water is done in slow motion.

In movies and TV shows, slow motion is certainly useful.

In times of emergency, proper use of slow motion will yield unexpected benefits.

However, Director Jiang's slow motion is like watering down the film. It is slow from beginning to end, and has no use except for a series of extra shots.

only.

Although Chen Ping thought so, Jiang Jiajun naturally did not consider this issue now.

Fortunately, Chen Ping was prepared.

But he coughed and then said: "Director Jiang, the upgraded shooting you are talking about is shooting slow motion."

"Not exactly, but it could be said to be."

"Is it like this movie?"

With that said, Chen Ping turned on his computer and selected a martial arts movie.

This martial arts film also has a lot of slow shots like Jiang Jiajun.

This was what Chen Ping had prepared for Jiang Jiajun a long time ago.

"Hey, what a slow motion, why doesn't the director die?"

"There are slow motions everywhere. Is the director trying to fill the air?"

"Yes, it's just watering down. How about it? I originally edited the plot of 30 episodes and added these slow motions. I can cut it to 40 episodes for you."

Looking at these comments, Jiang Jiajun was a little embarrassed and said: "My shooting concept is different from his."

Chen Ping also nodded: "I believe in Director Jiang's vision."

Although Chen Ping also complained about Jiang Jiajun's slow motion.

But it’s better not to point this out directly.

He believes it.

As long as Jiang Jiajun reads these comments, it is estimated that Jiang Jiajun will have to think carefully if he wants to do these slow motions again.

Is it worth it?

What if I do this and get scolded by these netizens?

"Director Jiang, I seem to see you trying to create emotional elements in our version of Yitian."

"How did you get it?"

"Director Jiang invited Zhou Haimei over. This sentiment is full of sincerity."

"Hahaha...you kid is not simple."

Jiang Jiajun smiled and said: "Feelings, of course, must be there. Zhou Haimei has played Zhou Zhiruo before, and now she plays the role of Master Miejie. I believe it is also a highlight."

"high."

Chen Ping gave Jiang Jiajun a thumbs up.

No matter what else is said, Jiang Jiajun still did a good job in selling feelings.

"I can't help it either."

Spreading his hands: "There are too many entertainment methods nowadays. Except for Jin Yong's martial arts, few people watch other martial arts. In other words, there are no other martial arts works at all. Now we have to shoot Yitian. If we don't Feelings, no one really cares."

"Director Jiang, I think that sentiment must be sold, but innovation must continue. Of course, the innovation I am talking about is innovation in plot."

"Chen Ping, what do you think?"

It is different from the previous filming of Swordsman.

When filming Swordsman, Chen Ping had to find opportunities even if he had an idea.

Even if you find an opportunity, you may not be able to influence anyone.

Later, I also took advantage of the director's space to cheat.

But the director’s space is not omnipotent.

Even though these scenes were filmed, they were cut off later.

This really made Chen Ping depressed.

But Chen Ping is no longer the same Chen Ping he used to be when he was filming Swordsman.

Since Chen Ping is the protagonist of Yitian, and Sheng Teng is the main cast member.

Then, Chen Ping's opinion will have a great impact.

Just like Jiang Jiajun.

When Chen Ping just expressed his opinion, Jiang Jiajun patiently acted like he was listening.

If other young actors have opinions about this, I'm sorry, but no one will listen to your opinions.

This is not Jiang Jiajun's power, this is the reality.

"I think the character of Zhang Wuji is a bit hesitant. He is not as brilliant as Yang Guo, nor is he as carefree as Linghu Chong."

"Yes, Zhang Wuji is a bit like us. He is liked by all the beauties, but he cannot give happiness to so many beauties."

"This is a scumbag."

"Uh, what a scumbag."

Jiang Jiajun was stunned: "Zhang Wuji doesn't look like a scumbag."

"Director Jiang, think about it. Zhang Wuji liked this and that, and made promises to various beauties. But in the end, none of the promises could be fulfilled... Since he can't do it, he should learn from Yang Guo. Later, when Yang Guo matures, He distanced himself from all the beauties. But Zhang Wuji liked a lot of beauties from the beginning to the end. Even when Xiao Zhao went to Persia, he always thought about..."

"That said, it's quite a bit."

"So, Director Jiang, I think. Since Zhang Wuji is a scumbag, he must be more thorough."

"What's the meaning?"

"Anyway, I like so many beauties, so I'll accept them all... What do you think?"
