Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth

The arrival of Liang Jiahui is like a catfish swimming into a school of sardines. Every scene he performs will be watched by other actors in the crew.

The ability of the older generation of powerful actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan to quickly enter the scene really shocked the young actors in the crew.

Huang Bo and Deng Chao stood on the edge of the mountain and river and stared at Liang Jiahui's performance. Deng Chao couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

"As expected of the actor with a thousand faces, I have only been here for three days and the character has already been brought to life. It is really a terrible adaptability. I fell into the role so quickly!"

"I have to accept it. I acted with him yesterday, and I was overwhelmed by the overwhelming momentum. This is the first time I have tasted the feeling of being pressured by others!" Huang Bo also shook his head and agreed.

Shanhe looked at the two people around him, "You think that my decades of experience are for nothing! It was not easy for actors to become famous in Hong Kong in the 1980s and 1990s. I don't have the professional experience like you." Learning is all a matter of hard work and hard work!"

"Shanhe, is he a methodist or an experientialist? Why do I feel like he has both!" Deng Chao asked Shanhe.

"I should start from the experience school first, and slowly develop my own understanding of acting. His method is very talented, and Zhou Xun is also this kind of actor." Shanhe replied casually.

"I can't learn!" Deng Chao shook his head and said, "Liang Jiahui always carries a bit of Thief Mike when he plays. He got so deep into the play in two or three days. I don't have the ability!"

"I would like to learn, but my image doesn't allow it. I guess I will only be able to play minor characters in this life!" Huang Bo responded with a sigh.

"What's wrong with playing a small character?" Shan He glanced at Huang Bo, "Little people also have their own joys and sorrows. Huang Bo, you have talent. Don't limit yourself to comedy movies. Think more about your acting skills. I signed you because of your fancy. He is the first contracted actor of Chuhe Film and Television, and he will be a veteran figure from now on, so don’t belittle yourself too much!”

"Thank you for your consideration!" Huang Bo was moved by Shan He's words, and his cheeks and corners of his eyes gradually turned red. "Boss, you don't know that when Manager Yang found me, I thought she was a liar. How could a voice-over vocational college student who was so close to being accepted be invited by a big writer? No one would believe it! When I arrived, the company not only gave me such a good role and opportunity, but also signed a contract with me. My girlfriend also Say I was hit by a pie falling from the sky, boss, I will not let you down, I will prove your vision to everyone!"

Shanhe patted Huang Bo on the shoulder and responded with a smile: "You have this potential. In fact, you can still succeed without me. Gold will always shine!"

The feeling of being trusted and appreciated when he was at a low point made Huang Bo feel warm in his heart. He didn't say any more heroic words, he just looked at the mountains and rivers and nodded solemnly.

Deng Chao on the side looked a little excited. It turned out that Huang Bo was nominated by Shanhe to star in the role. Normally, it is really hard to tell. Huang Bo must be very lucky!

He looked at the two people on the side and said, "Shanhe, what do you think of me? Do I have potential and talent? Can I make it in the film and television industry in the future?"

Shanhe glanced at Deng Chao, who was full of expectations, "You, Deng Chao, are a famous figure in Chinese dramas. You made a lot of noise in school. Now you are the leading actor in a big-production TV series. "Young Emperor" I But I’ve heard about it. I guess you’ll be famous all over the country after the TV series is over. Maybe we’ll even take advantage of you in “Crazy Stone”! You’re being pretentious by asking this question!”

"My ability is not worth mentioning in front of you. Is "Young Emperor" really a hit?" Deng Chao repeatedly confirmed excitedly.

"It should be possible if nothing unexpected happens!"

"Shanhe is famous for his accurate vision, haha... So I have to treat you. The barbecue restaurant will be open in the evening, and you can order any beer and skewers!"

"Then I'll call the whole crew!" Huang Bo joked with a smile.

"Fuck you! I can't afford to invite so many people!"

"Are the popular superstars in the reserves so stingy?"

"I'm not angry yet!"

…

Liang Jiahui's scene is still a one-step process. Ning Hao is directing the logistics staff to change the scene, and the three of Shanhe also help.

This was when the mobile phone in Shanhe's trouser pocket began to vibrate. Shanhe took out the mobile phone and saw Zhong Lifeng's number.

Didn't she and Zhang Yang go to the Venice Film Festival to participate in the exhibition? This is good news!

"Hey, Sister Zhong, I'm Shanhe!"

"Shanhe, Li Yang's "The Blind Shaft" won the award! The Silver Lion Award for Best Director, Wang Baoqiang also won the Best Newcomer Award! Ning Hao's "Green Grass" also won the Most Interested Director Award in the Horizon Section! Double happiness ah!"

"Good news! I've been too busy recently and haven't paid attention to the Venice Film Festival. Did the awards just come out today?"

"Yes, based on the results we just got, we must have made money on "Blind Shaft" and "Green Grass". We can easily get back the money through overseas distribution rights. I heard Yang Liu say that you value Wang Baoqiang's kid, hurry up and get her to sign. Come down! This kid is lucky!"

"I understand! Sister Zhong, Venice has worked hard for you. "The Blind Shaft" and "Green Grass" probably won't be released in China, and we can only rely on copyrights to repay the money!"

"It's my job, how was the filming of "Crazy Stone"?"

"It went very smoothly! Our company's first theatrically released film is "Crazy Stone", and I'm very optimistic about it!"

"Okay! After I return to China, I will go to the mountain city to have a good chat with you!"

"OK!"

Shanhe put down his cell phone, thought for two minutes, and then walked towards Yangliu.

"Yang Liu, how is Wang Baoqiang doing now?"

As one of the producers of "Crazy Stone", Yang Liu was looking at the cost list of logistical props. Hearing Shanhe's question, he raised his head and replied doubtfully: "He is still doing odd jobs around the capital! He still lives in the company What's going on in the dormitory?"

"Wang Baoqiang won an award at the Venice Film Festival!"

"What? Wang Baoqiang won the Venice Best Actor!" Yang Liu's eyes almost popped out of his head.

"That's not true!" Shanhe replied with a smile, "He won the Best Newcomer Award."

Yang Liu patted his chest, "Boss, you shocked me, I'll just say it!"

"Stop talking, the Best Newcomer Award in Venice is not a pheasant award. You should sign Wang Baoqiang quickly, with the same conditions as Huang Bo! After "Crazy Stone" is finished, I will take him to find Feng Xiaogang. He has a very good role. Suitable for Wang Baoqiang!" Shan He rolled his eyes at Yang Liu.

"Okay!" Yang Liu nodded and agreed, "I just have to go back to the capital. The production cost of "Crazy Stone" is estimated to exceed the original budget. I have to go back to the company to report it!"

"Oh? How much will it exceed?" Shanhe asked.

"The actor's salary exceeds about 200,000 yuan, and the film budget is not enough. Ning Hao's original budget of 4 million is definitely not enough, it is estimated to be hundreds of thousands more!" Yang Liu replied.

"Fine!"

Shanhe told Ning Hao the news about "Green Grass" winning the award, but Ning Hao didn't care at all and continued to devote himself to the filming of "Crazy Stone" without saying a word.

Liang Jiahui's scenes were shot very quickly. The estimated ten-day shooting schedule was completed in six days.

After holding a small closing banquet for Liang Jiahui, he hurriedly left the crew, and Liang Jiahui had to rush to join the war film crew of Bayi Film Studio.

As time went by, more and more roles were completed, and Xu Zheng's role was also completed, but he still helped the crew and had a very determined attitude towards learning. He often invited Ning Hao and Shan He to discuss the use of the shots. .

Soon, Deng Chao also finished and left.

By mid-September, more than half of "Crazy Stone" had been completed, and Xu Zheng also left the mountain city because of film appointments.

Zhong Lifeng, the chief producer of the film, finally arrived at the filming site for the first time!

"Mr. Zhong, you are really a hands-off boss. The movie is almost finished filming and you just came here. This is the first time I have seen such a reassuring producer!" Ning Hao joked to Zhong Lifeng with a smile.

"What should I worry about? You, Ning Hao, are an award-winning director. Shanhe and Yangliu are on the set every day. I don't have to worry about the release of your movie! No matter how good the movie is, it still has to be promoted and distributed in the end! Why, Do you have any objections to me?" Zhong Lifeng responded with a smile.

"Then I don't dare. You are Chuhe Film and Television's number one talker!" Ning Hao teased.

"I'm not going to bullshit you anymore!" Zhong Lifang looked at the two of them and said, ""Green Grass" is already finished. It was distributed overseas and sold to a few companies, making a little profit. It is not suitable for domestic release, but CCTV is interested in purchasing the broadcast rights. , I guess the price won’t be high!”

"I'm lucky I didn't get compensated. Now that I think about it, the filming of "Green Grass" was indeed neither good nor bad. I just wanted to change the shooting style to see if it would work!" Ning Hao responded with a smile.

"When will "Crazy Stone" be finished and how long will it take for the film to be released?" Zhong Lifeng asked directly.

Ning Hao and Shan He looked at each other and replied: "The filming of "Crazy Stone" went very smoothly. It will be completed in another ten days. Post-production will take one or two months, and it will be completed by November at the latest. .”

"Then we have to consider the release schedule. The Lunar New Year schedule at the end of the year is the most popular movie schedule in China, but the competition is also fierce. As far as I know, "Pirates of the Caribbean" is scheduled to be released in mid-November, and Feng Xiaogang will be released in December. "Mobile Phone", and the Hong Kong blockbuster "Infernal Affairs 3". If we add them in, we will probably be injured together. I suggest that it be placed at the end of June next year. Although the domestic summer season has not yet formed, the box office will still be higher than usual. Some!" Zhong Lifeng analyzed it for the two of them.

Shanhe thought for a while and asked, "What movies will be released in January next year?"

"January is the Spring Festival, which is the off-season for the domestic box office. Disney's "The Great Sea" and the Hong Kong and Taiwan movie "Magic Kitchen" have already been scheduled for January. It is worth noting that the box office will not be as good. That's great. Domestic audiences are not yet in the habit of watching movies during the Spring Festival. Everyone is busy visiting relatives and friends!" Zhong Lifeng looked at Shanhe in confusion.

Ning Hao also asked: "Shanhe, would it be too risky to release it in January?"

Shanhe smiled at the two of them and explained: "The Spring Festival schedule has not yet been formed, but it is very suitable for "Crazy Stone". Our movie is a comedy, with Liang Jiahui and Fan Binbin joining the cast, so its appeal is not counted. Weak, besides, Sister Zhong will definitely push me out to become a banner. Movies are very attractive to audiences. There are no competitors in January, and it is the biggest holiday. As long as we can attract young people to the cinema, we can If you monopolize this time slot, your chances of success are not small!”

Zhong Lifeng responded with a smile: "Shanhe, you really understand me. You don't need to waste such a big name! Ning Hao, what do you think of what Shanhe said?"

"I'm not very good at film distribution, but what Shan He said makes sense. It's a good idea to take someone else's choice!" Ning Hao replied.

Zhong Lifeng lowered his head and thought for a while, "I will go back and get a clear understanding of the Spring Festival movie releases in the past two years. If "Crazy Stone" is released in January, we will have to have a complete set of publicity plans. It is estimated that the investment will be large and the stakes will be much higher. !”

"I have confidence in Ning Hao and the movie. If you bet bigger, bet bigger!"

"Okay then! I'll start making plans to promote the release when I get back. Let's make a bet on whether it will be released during the Spring Festival!"

Zhong Lifeng stayed in the mountain city for two days and returned to the capital in a hurry. The countdown to the promotion and release of "Crazy Stone" has begun.

In my memory, Ning Hao's "Crazy Stone" didn't have any pre-publicity at all. The box office in the first two weeks was pitiful. He relied on word-of-mouth to make the box office reach more than 25 million. Unfortunately, in the later period, pirated discs were already flying everywhere, otherwise it would always be The box office cannot be just this little.

Today's "Crazy Stone" is an enhanced version under the influence of Shanhe's butterfly. Shanhe is full of confidence in its prospects!

"Attention all departments, first shot of the third scene of the road chase, action!"

Heipi, played by Huang Bo, ran wildly on the road holding a long loaf of bread, while the obese extras behind him chased and beat him up on donkey motorcycles.

A few minutes later, Ning Hao shouted: "It's stuck! This is passed, let's wrap it up!"

The entire crew was at the filming site at this time. Following Ning Hao's shout, a burst of cheers and whistles rang out all around.

"Crazy Stone" went through nearly a year of planning and preparation, and a month and a half of live shooting, and finally completed all the shots.

Shanhe also cheered. This was his first time working in a group, and the whole process was not easy.

From the initial discomfort to the gradual integration and then to the ability to solve problems proficiently, Shanhe has made a lot of efforts.

Film is a systematic art that requires not only performance and creativity, but also technology and collaboration.

To become an excellent dreamer, Shanhe realizes his own gaps and shortcomings, and needs to put in more practice and effort!

The closing banquet was held at a Sichuan restaurant near Luohan Temple. The crew of "Crazy Stone" booked the entire restaurant hall, and the five round tables were packed.

From six o'clock in the evening, there was a lively eating and drinking period until ten thirty in the evening. During this period, various toasts and guessing games were made, and everyone was having a great time.

Shanhe and Ning Hao were the two people who received the most toasts. One cup after another, Shanhe couldn't bear it anymore. He quietly urinated under the yellow kudzu tree outside the store and sat on the ground beside the road.

The evening breeze and the alcohol above made Shanhe feel sleepy.

Not long after, Ning Hao also urinated and escaped. When he saw Shanhe's back sitting under the yellow kudzu tree, he smiled and walked up to him, patted his shoulder, and sat next to him. "Shanhe, are you okay? How are you doing today?" It's so bad, you usually drink more than this!"

Shanhe Fan turned his head and looked at Ning Hao, "I drink too fast, one after another, who can bear it! You are not the same!"

"I drink more than you!" Ning Hao said drunkenly, "This is my fourth movie. The pressure of the first three movies combined is not as great as this one. If I fail this time, I will be really shameless. With all the respect I have for you, Shanhe, we will succeed this time, right?"

Shanhe looked at Ning Hao, whose face was red. He patted his chest and said while smelling of alcohol: "Who am I? I am Qiu Shanhe, a person favored by fate. If I say you can succeed, you will definitely succeed. Let's continue in the future." If you want to make historical blockbusters or science fiction blockbusters, I have to go to Hollywood, where the scenery is endless. Let me tell you secretly that in the future, a movie in China will have a domestic box office of 5 to 6 billion. I have such a big market base, and Hollywood counts. A ball!”

"Haha..." Ning Hao laughed listening to Shan He's heroic words, "I don't usually see you bragging, but how dare you brag about it? For five or six billion, I want to have a box office of five or six billion. You can walk sideways in the country!"

"You know what the heck, twenty years from now, I'll take a picture of it and show it to you!"

"You're awesome, come on! Get up quickly and go into the house. Yangliu will come to you in a while!" Ning Hao stood up and supported Shanhe and said.

This night, the mountains and rivers were broken into pieces!

The next morning, Shanhe woke up with waves of headaches. He only remembered that he went out and sat by the road. Later, he didn't remember anything at all. He couldn't have said anything he shouldn't have said! Drinking makes things worse!

Shan He took a bath and washed away the smell of alcohol. When he opened the door, he saw Yang Liu carrying breakfast.

Yang Liu looked at Shanhe who was a little pale and asked: "Boss, are you okay? You don't look good. I brought you fish fillet porridge, drink it quickly! Don't drink like this in the future!"

"Thanks!" Shanhe took the thermos bucket and asked, "I didn't do anything yesterday, right?"

"No! He just drank so much that he fell unconscious and was finally carried back to the hotel."

"That's good!"

"Yesterday Ning Hao was just like you. You were both fed to a complete mess, and I got angry later!"

“It’s so relaxing for a moment!”

Two days later, the entire crew of "Crazy Stone" returned to the capital.

Ning Hao started the post-editing of the film non-stop, and Shanhe was also busy with the post-production of the second season of "If National Treasure Could Talk".

Before the National Day, Zhong Lifeng's publicity plan was launched, and news about "Crazy Stone" began to spread on the Internet.

Liang Jiahui and Fan Binbin star. Importantly, Shanhe participated in the screenplay and served as the film's deputy director.

"Shanhe has set foot in a domestic film for the first time!" This news suddenly spread among the book fans who follow Shanhe.

"Has Shanhe become a director? Why don't you make your own work? You can choose any one of "Bottom Hot Girls" and "We Are Young"!"

"Shanhe is only participating in the screenwriting. He is not a director. He is just an assistant director. He is probably going to learn and practice, and then he will direct it himself!"

"The name "Crazy Stone" is really awkward. It's better to call it "Crazy Stone"! But I will still go and support it. I can trust Shanhe's vision!"

"That's just a little bit of information. Liang Jiahui, Fan Binbin, Xu Zheng, director, Ning Hao, who is Ning Hao? Has anyone heard of it?"

"I just checked and found out that Ning Hao just won an award at the Venice Film Festival, but he wasn't in the main competition. He should be pretty good!"

"The publicity is really bad. The trailer has been released. When will it be released?"

…

Shanhe wants to be a director and is studying at Beijing Film Academy. This has been reported and everyone knows, and book fans are looking forward to Shanhe putting his novel on the big screen.

Therefore, the news that Shanhe made his first domestic film debut received a lot of attention, and "Crazy Stone" left an initial impression among netizens and book fans.

Shanhe didn't know about Zhong Lifeng's propaganda operation. He and the entire 201 dormitory were invested in the post-editing and production of the second season of "If National Treasure Could Talk".

It took nearly half a month for Dormitory 201 to roughly edit the content and materials of the fifty episodes into a documentary.

The second season of "If National Treasures Could Talk" continues the format of the first season. Each episode still has a national treasure for five minutes, but the content is not comparable to the first season.

The preciousness of the cultural relics alone is countless times more attractive than the first season. The cultural relics in almost every episode are national treasures that are familiar to the public.

Coupled with the experience of the first season, the second season has a heavier sense of history than before. The other members of Dormitory 201 have done a great job. Shanhe is very satisfied with the quality of the second season.

After leaving the finishing work to Chuhe Film and Television Production Department, Shanhe finally relaxed after more than two months of intense work.

After two days of recuperation in the courtyard, Shanhe returned to Beijing Film Academy to end his vacation.

As soon as I returned to Dormitory 201, I was attracted by the conversations of several people in the dormitory.

"It's so exciting. Our country has finally sent its own astronauts into space!"

"Shenzhou 5 will fly in space for 21 hours and return to Earth this evening. I wish it all the best and wish Yang Liwei a safe return!"

"Everything will definitely go smoothly. I'm not bragging. In undertaking such a big project, our country definitely has a collective advantage. If we don't have 100% certainty, we won't take people into space!"

"In other words, we can definitely see our Chinese spacecraft land on the moon and even Mars in our lifetime!"

Shanhe listened at the door for a while, then strode into the dormitory,

"Did Shenzhou-5 launch yesterday? I've been so busy lately that I've been so busy that I slept at home all day and missed such big news!" Shanhe asked loudly.

"Boss, you don't know that Shenwu is in the sky. Yesterday the whole capital was talking about it. It's so awesome!" Silkworm Chrysalis responded to Shan Hedao.

"Mountains and rivers are so exciting. Yang Liwei will go down in history! Our country is also a great aerospace country!"

Shanhe said with excitement: "It's really exciting! Are there newspapers in the dormitory? Let me use your computer, Silkworm!"

"No problem, boss. The newspapers are all on the table. I bought several copies early in the morning. You can read them yourself!"

Shanhe looked at the eye-catching headlines one after another, "Historic moment! China successfully launched the first manned spacecraft Shenzhou 5!"

"Flying dream, one day comes true!"

"The successful launch of the Shenzhou 5 manned spacecraft is not only a dream come true, but also a starting point!"

"Yang Liwei made a declaration to the world on behalf of the Chinese people that we can conquer space on our own!"

Shenwu has gone to heaven! Can Shenzhou VI and Shenzhou VII be far behind?

Can the "Tiangong" space station in Shanhe's memory be far away?

The success of Shenzhou V not only means the success of China's aerospace industry, it will also provide a solid foundation for China's science fiction movies.

The Chinese have begun to believe that their country and their compatriots can fly into the universe and conquer the future. It no longer seems exaggerated or incongruous for the Chinese and their spaceships to save the world in science fiction movies!

After all, we have safely sent Chinese people into space!

Several science fiction blockbusters appeared in Shanhe's mind, including China's "The Wandering Earth", M's "Moon" and "The Martian", etc.

How about writing a science fiction novel? This question suddenly appeared in Shanhe's mind.

What is the status of science fiction novels in China at this time? Liu Cixin's "The Three-Body Problem" must not have been written yet. Shanhe has almost never heard of any famous science fiction novels in China.

What to write?

"Moon" or "The Martian"?

Shanhe remembered that China later remade "The Martian" and called it "Walking Alone on the Moon."

I haven't had time to watch Shan He yet, and it is said that the filming was very poor, but I was very impressed by Shan He, the M country version of "The Martian", as if it was originally adapted from the novel.

Another movie "Moon", Shan He also remembers clearly, the joys and sorrows of a clone on the moon, it is a quite profound movie.

It was difficult for Shan He to make a choice. "The Martian" was more of a best-seller, while "Moon" was more of a literature and ideological depth.

"Boss, what are you thinking about? You've been in a daze for half an hour. Are you okay?"

Silkworm Chrysalis' question woke up Shanhe who was deep in thought. Shanhe looked at the concerned eyes of his roommates and responded with a smile: "I'm fine. The successful launch of Shenzhou V just now gave me some inspiration. You guys said I should write a book." How about science fiction?”

"I'll go, Shanhe, you're going to start a new book again, science fiction? I don't read much of it!"

"Science fiction novels are okay! I originally ordered "Science Fiction World", Shanhe. Science fiction novels are not popular in our country, but you are different. Maybe you can even make science fiction books popular!"

…

"I have two ideas now. Please give me your opinion. One is planting potatoes on Mars to save yourself, and the other is the joys and sorrows of cloning on the moon. Which one do you think is better?"

After a period of silence, Chen Jingming spoke first: "Shanhe, we Chinese are famous for farming. I think farming on Mars is more in line with our Chinese thinking. We have this talent!"

"What Jing Ming said makes sense!"

“Aren’t we just a farming nation!”

"Chinese people have special feelings for the land. Mountains and rivers. Farming on Mars is so in line with our Chinese style!"

"Maybe potatoes can really be grown on Mars, Shanhe, you can really imagine, this idea is really amazing!"
