SEC Chapter 100
Chapter 100
"Excuse me, Mr. Ji. It is forbidden to take photos here, can you please delete the photos?"
Suddenly, a handsome young man with smiling eyes appeared beside Father Ji.He nodded to Father Ji first, then raised his hand to block the phone camera.
Father Ji was taken aback, and then blushed and said angrily, "That's my son, why can't I take pictures? What the hell are you? Why do you order me to do things?"
Facing the questioning, the young man maintained his politeness and said with a slight smile: "Mr. Ji, I am Zuo Zehan, the assistant director here. According to the regulations, it is not allowed to take pictures in the crew, let alone disclose the content of the shooting. For you and for Zixuan, Please, Mr. Ji, please stop taking pictures."
As Zuo Zehan said, under normal circumstances, in order to prevent the leak of the script and actors' looks, the crew strictly prohibits others from filming.
Of course, there are also some production crews that are for traffic and will 'accidentally' be spread by others for the sake of ratings and attention, which will lead to various discussions.
Lu Jue didn't think about hype, the crew members knew his temper, so naturally they strictly guarded against it and didn't give the entertainment reporters a chance.
For Ji's father, the staff reminded him when he was brought into the crew.He knew the rules of the crew, but he still took out his phone to take a photo of Ji Zixuan in the rain.
Ji's father knew he was wrong, so he could only stare at Zuo Zehan fiercely in front of him with a livid face, trying to embolden himself.
"Mr. Ji, please delete the photo you just took, thank you for your cooperation."
Zuo Zehan was unmoved, but just repeated with a flat expression.
Gradually, Father Ji couldn't hold on any longer.At this moment, Aunt Li snatched his mobile phone and said with a sneer, "Xiao Zuo, Lao Ji doesn't know anything, so I'll help him delete the photos."
Zuo Zehan smiled slightly, "Please trouble Aunt Li."
Aunt Li half-forced Father Ji to unlock it, and deleted all the photos taken just now in front of everyone.
While operating, she murmured: "...This is a filming set, and the director has been admonishing me to guard against sneak shots. I've been here for so long and I can't help it, Lao Ji, why can't you help it? Zixuan worked so hard, Lao Ji, you can't cause trouble for the child..."
Hearing these words, Zuo Zehan looked at Father Ji with subtle eyes.
Ji's father frowned tightly, and became angry from embarrassment: "Sister Li, the photo has also been deleted, don't talk about it..."
"Zuo Zehan——!"
Suddenly, Lu Jue shouted.
Zuo Zehan didn't care about Ji's father either, he only had time to wink at Aunt Li and ran away in a hurry.
With the arrival of the awards season, Qing Kong was in a hurry, and Wei Yuan was also assigned to Yu Wei's side.Later, Lu Jue promoted Zuo Zehan and asked him to share some work for him.
Speaking of Zuo Zehan, he is still a veteran in the industry that Lu Jue specially recruited before the "Distance" project.
After a period of running-in, Zuo Zehan became more and more efficient in doing things, and his tacit understanding with Lu Jue became better and better.When Father Ji came, Lu Jue only gave him a look, and Zuo Zehan understood.
"Director Lu, don't worry, it's all deleted."
Hearing this, Lu Jue nodded slightly, and said, "Ze Han, the next shot is the long shot, are you all ready?" After a pause, "You have to control the field later and let others pay attention. We fight for it.”
Zuo Zehan made an OK gesture, turned around and made arrangements.
On this day, hundreds of people in the production team worked together to perfect each picture time after time.
Time passed unknowingly, today's finale scene was filmed very smoothly, Lu Jue's frowning brows finally relaxed, and a smile appeared on the corners of his lips involuntarily.
"Director Lu, how are you doing?"
Ji Zixuan's hair was wet, wrapped in a thick towel, his eyes were twinkling, and he looked at Lu Jue expectantly. Beside him stood another leading actor, Yao Yuhui.
At this moment, Yao Yuhui's eyes were red, and he didn't intend to wipe his hair with a towel casually, looking at him with aggrieved like a erha.
Not only them, but everyone on the set focused on Lu Jue.
"It was perfect, it's over—"
Accompanied by his words, everyone in the crew couldn't help but jumped up with excitement.
Someone picked up their clothes and rushed into the rain; someone hugged each other and wept together; someone threw the script out excitedly...
"One by one, is there a need to be so excited?" Tao Zhengkai complained, and suddenly rushed out excitedly, "Hey—be careful with the camera...you don't bring it back to me, brat..."
"Wooooow, Director Lu! Thank you for your guidance all the time! I am really lucky to work with you!"
"Hahaha, I can finally leave this ghost place..."
"Hey, I must cooperate with a bad film director next time, and I will die with Lu Jue. What do you think I am doing? You are such a difficult director, it is good to cooperate once in a while. You are picky, too much trouble, or someone Some directors are easy to get along with..."
Everyone was laughing and talking freely, no one was afraid of Lu Jue anymore.
Seeing this, Lu Jue didn't bother with them, and only asked Zuo Zehan to finish the final work well.After a while, after everyone calmed down, he said: "Tomorrow, I will invite everyone to dinner. If you have time to attend, let Zehan know, so we can count the number here."
Today's time is too late, the finale banquet can only be saved until tomorrow.
Everyone knew that Lu Jue was generous, and they all laughed and joked. Zuo Zehan reminded everyone to pack their things in a timely manner.Among the crowd, Ji Zixuan quietly came to Lu Jue's side.
At this time, he had already put on clean clothes, his hair was half-dried, and his face was flushed after drinking ginger soup, unexpectedly cute.
"My dad went back, he... left very early."
Ji Zixuan raised a big smile, but his eyes were full of disappointment.
Lu Jue stretched out his hand, rubbed his hair, and said, "Why didn't you dry it? Young man, health is the most important thing." Then, he took a clean towel and handed it to him.
Ji Zixuan tightened his hand holding the towel, lowered his head, and sighed with a gloomy expression: "No matter how late I work, my mother will stay with me."
Lu Jue: "..."
Lu Jue didn't speak, but smiled slightly at Aunt Li who rushed over.For some reason, seeing him like this, Aunt Li didn't dare to go over, but just stood there and watched from a distance.
Ji Zixuan rubbed his hair stiffly, stared blankly at the ground, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, Lu Jue broke the silence and said, "I will give you the contact information of a lawyer later. He is good at divorce cases and can give you professional advice."
Ji Zixuan's breath was stagnant, and he responded with a barely audible voice.
divorce……
Ji Zixuan didn't expect that what he was expecting in his dreams actually came.For a moment, he was in a trance, as if entering a dream.
In the hospital before, Lu Jue made a hint for Zhou Yaxiu and lifted her from the shackles in her heart.Waking up again, Zhou Yaxiu no longer lives for the eyes of others, let alone continue to endure for a scumbag like Father Ji.
Zhou Yaxiu didn't want to be beaten, she didn't want to live like this again, she didn't want to live numbly anymore.
Impulsively said that after the divorce, Zhou Yaxiu's relatives and friends came to 'care about her' and 'comfort her'.Everyone was kind, but what they said was to tell her not to care about Father Ji.
Zhou Yaxiu regretted it, but with everyone's persuasion, she became more determined to divorce.
Ji's father readily agreed to the divorce, but the two husband and wife had a dispute over Ji Zixuan's matter.
Zhou Yaxiu is desperately protecting Ji Zixuan, while Ji's father likes to talk about Ji Zixuan whenever he has nothing to do.
Zhou Yaxiu doesn't have a formal job. Her current job is to accompany Ji Zixuan, accepting commercial scripts for him; on the other hand, Ji's father has a formal job, and has been raising mother and son for many years...
No matter whether Father Ji is voluntary or not, no matter how much living expenses he gave, he did show the transfer records.
At the same time, Ji's father also said that Zixuan could concentrate on studying by following him, and he didn't need to travel outside to work hard on filming. He also said that Zhou Yaxiu was squeezing the child and using the child to make money.
In this way, public opinion leaned towards Father Ji.
However, just when Ji's father thought the matter could be done, the lawyer Ji Zixuan hired came.With the intervention of professionals, Ji's father's carelessness was immediately seen through, and Ji's family fell into chaos.
During this period, "Prehistoric Beasts" co-produced by Lu Wenyao and Jiang Zhixian entered the publicity period; the reality show "Extreme Run" participated by Lu Zixu appeared in front of everyone; Yu Wei's TV series was completed and entered post-production; Dongyuan also gave up. Zhuang Sixian, and handed over the new project to Cai Yang...
There are new things in the entertainment industry every day.
As time passed slowly, "Prehistoric Behemoths" got more and more publicity, subway stations, video sites, magazines and newspapers... Its advertisements can be seen everywhere. Aohuang Entertainment used its strength to show what it means to be rich and powerful.
Jiang Zhixian?Lu Wenyao?
Director Jiang Da has cooperated with the actor Lu Da?
Many viewers who didn't know why saw the names of these two people, and their hearts jumped, and they subconsciously thought that this was definitely a masterpiece.
In fact, "Prehistoric Behemoths" is indeed a masterpiece.
In recent years, various blockbuster foreign special effects films have entered the Chinese market, but China has nothing to do with it, and only outdated kung fu movies and literary films are exported.
In order to change the situation, Jiang Zhixian spent two years polishing the script, and then won the favor of Aohuang Entertainment, successfully lured Lu Wenyao into the bureau, and cooperated with it.
Two years ago, when Lu Jue was filming "The Ninth Letter", Lu Wenyao signed a contract with Aohuang Entertainment to help him, and participated in the movie "Prehistoric Beasts".
As an actor, Lu Wenyao is conscientious and spends a lot of time exercising to shape the body needed by the protagonist.In the end, the shooting time of the film was not long, but the post-production took a year and a half.
After entering the promotion period, Lu Wenyao also participated in various activities with the crew, doing his best...
One and a half years sounds like a long time, but it's quite normal when it comes to special effects movies.
For the box office, the promotion of "Prehistoric Behemoths" was unprecedentedly grand, and the premiere on April 4 was even more star-studded. Jiang Zhixian's full confidence gave the audience great confidence.
In the end, this movie, which was given high hopes by Aohuang Entertainment, had a box office of 1.18 million on the first day, becoming the single-day box office champion.
1.18! ?
According to the box office on the first day, Rye.com predicts that the total box office of "Prehistoric Behemoths" will reach 10 billion.
Such a number made the people of Aohuang Entertainment laugh from ear to ear, and Jiang Zhixian even boasted, claiming that "Prehistoric Behemoths" will definitely break the box office record in China.
Along with Jiang Zhixian's rhetoric, there are also audience's film reviews.
Those fans who entered the cinema for Jiang Zhixian and Lu Wenyao gave "Prehistoric Behemoths" a bad review, and some passers-by also posted comments that were 'incomprehensible'...
The people in Austrian Emperor's public relations department were keenly aware of the problem.
Without much hesitation, they immediately contacted Twitter, which lowered the ranking of #prehistoric giant beast#, and also contacted the marketing account with millions of fans to speak well of "Prehistoric Giant Beast".
Among them, Song Xuan, who often speaks well of Lu Jue, also wrote a film review for "Prehistoric Behemoths", briefly mentioning the advantages and disadvantages without digging deeper.
In an instant, the reputation of "Prehistoric Behemoths" became polarized.
Some people say that "Prehistoric Behemoth" is a bad movie, while others say that "Prehistoric Behemoth" has mediocre special effects and is an ordinary cool movie, worth the price...
On the second day, the box office of "Prehistoric Behemoths" dropped sharply, taking in 300 million at the box office; on the third day, the box office of "Prehistoric Behemoths" dropped again, and took in 500 million at the box office; on the fourth day... …
The box office of "Prehistoric Behemoths" dropped too fast, and Rye.com has repeatedly changed its box office forecast. If this continues, "Prehistoric Behemoths" may not be able to recover its cost.
Even if Aohuang tried his best to recover, he couldn't keep the hearts of the audience.
On the seventh day of its release, "Prehistoric Behemoths" fell to the single-day box office champion, surpassed by a comedy with an average reputation.After that, it could no longer catch up, and the box office continued to decline.
Seeing that the loss of "Prehistoric Behemoth" is a foregone conclusion, Aohuang Entertainment has no choice but to admit defeat.For this reason, Aohuang Entertainment held an emergency meeting to re-evaluate each project.
Seeing Ao Huang's misfortune, Dong Yuan and Bai Yun both laughed, that was gloating.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that Red Star Entertainment made an unexpected move.
As the first big publicity special effects film of this year, Red Star Entertainment was very satisfied with Aohuang's attitude, so they worked hard to get the key to extend the release of "Prehistoric Behemoths".
Immediately, the release time of "Prehistoric Behemoths" was extended to forty days, which saved face for Aohuang Entertainment and gave them room to breathe.
Everyone in the industry was shocked by Red Star's operation, and even the melon eaters couldn't help discussing it.
"Father is awesome!"
"Hahahahaha, I'm afraid that when Austrian Emperor was filming "Prehistoric Behemoths", he didn't even think about being able to get the light of the Red Star Boss. Oh, this light is so dazzling, I'm about to go blind."
"Aohuang: Please call me Auhuang, thank you."
"Red Star: If you hang out with Dad, you will never suffer."
"One thing to say, the special effects of "Prehistoric Behemoths" are a bit less interesting than those of foreign countries, and the plot is also a pure Hollywood-style movie. This kind of movie is everywhere. Is it necessary to go to the theater to see it?"
"You guys above don't understand. Sometimes a movie is not only about quality, but more importantly, its meaning. According to Aohuang's public information, "Prehistoric Behemoths" has been promoted overseas, and it will be released overseas soon. Do you understand cultural export? Just for this, it can be regarded as a leader.”
""Prehistoric Behemoths" was prepared for three years, and two years later, not to mention that it only invested [-] million Huaxia coins, and it has already left a name in the history of Chinese movies."
"Well, in order to pursue the best special effects, Director Jiang and Ao Huang deliberately found the top special effects company in Hollywood, and they spent a lot of money. Now look at the effects, everyone who understands understands, so I won't say much... ..."
……
The attitude of Red Star shows how much they attach importance to cultural output.
Two years ago, Aohuang Entertainment was able to spend a lot of money investing in special effects films without knowing the decision of Red Star, which has proved their ambitions in the film industry.
It is not difficult for Red Star to extend the release time, but with such a handy help, major film and television companies can pay more attention to special effects movies.
Make sure you don't lose.
public key.
As we all know, special effects movies require a huge amount of investment, and it is even more difficult to recover the cost.If you can get the key to extend the release, it seems that it is not so difficult to get back the money?
The companies headed by Dongyuan have their own small calculations.
They know that Red Star is not a philanthropist, and it is impossible to give benefits to every movie, but for this one ten thousandth, they more or less have an idea.
The film originally invested 8000 million yuan can have better visual effects with a little more, and it can also attract the attention of big shots.
Do you want to append?
The answer is self-evident.
So, your family increased by 2000 million, and my family added 5000 million... Each family has added some additional investment according to their own situation.Even Lieyang's special effects received supplementary funds from Baiyun Film and Television, asking them to make the special effects of "The Legend of the White Fox" the best.
While the major film and television companies were busy, Lu Jue was busy with post-editing.
There are not many special effects in "Distance", and most of them are shot in real scenes. For the most perfect effect, he also specially asked Tao Zhengkai to shoot from multiple angles.
This led to too much material, and the post-editing of "Distance" was even more troublesome.
In order to be perfect, Lu Jue not only tortured the editor, but even the arranger couldn't bear his pickiness.
Unlike "The Ninth Letter", "Distance" has sufficient funds. During filming, Lu Jue invited Mr. Xie Hongzhi, a master of film soundtracks, to compose the soundtrack for "Distance".
You know, as a master Xie Hongzhi, he has contacted countless directors, and he is not afraid of foreign directors.However, such a powerful person lost his temper when faced with Lu Jue's various provocations.
There is no other reason, it is that every request and every question of Lu Jue is just right.
He is different from those directors who don't understand music. Xie Hongzhi can feel that he understands music. Every time they make changes, they are better than before.
This feeling made Xie Hongzhi addicted.
cough cough.
Of course, as a master, Xie Hongzhi wouldn't show it stupidly, and more importantly, he couldn't bear his stinky temper after talking to his heart's content.
Therefore, every time the two talked, it was always accompanied by quarrels, which worried outsiders.
the other side.
Unlike the arranger, editor Hao Jiaye always follows Lu Jue and never expresses any opinion on his decisions.
Hao Jiaye is so obedient.
This kind of obedience made Lu Jue feel weird.
Hao Jiaye, formerly an employee of Baiyun Film and Television, was an editor who jumped to Qingkong when Qingkong was founded.
In "The Ninth Letter" before, Hao Jiaye was very obedient to Lu Jue, like a tool man, completing every job satisfactorily.
At that time, Qing Kong was eager to prove himself, and Lu Jue didn't pay much attention to Hao Jiaye.
Looking at it now, there is obviously something wrong with an editor like Hao Jiaye. Rather than saying that he is an editor, it is better to say that he is just Lu Jue's mouthpiece.
editor.
No matter at home or abroad, excellent editors have their own ideas and their own understanding of the plot.In particular, big-name foreign editors and small directors without editing rights can only let the editors and producers work on their own works, and the final finished director is more like a person who takes the blame.
One of the most classic things is that most of the parts of an Oscar-winning production are the ideas of editor Jay Hughlis.
Few people in the outside world know about this matter, and everyone in the industry knows about it.
Lu Jue has never worked with other editors, but he also knows that it is easy for an editor to quarrel with the director over a shot.
Hao Jiaye kept silent and didn't express his opinion. Lu Jue couldn't figure out his thoughts at all.
Is he a mindless wretch?Or a master who dare not speak up?
Lu Jue didn't know, he decided to observe secretly.
Therefore, Lu Jue acted recklessly intentionally or unintentionally, and Hao Jiaye couldn't hold back after all, his brows became more and more wrinkled, his face became more and more ugly, and his expression was full of disgust when he looked at him.
On the third day of the chaos, Lu Jue continued to point out in the editing room: "Brother Hao, how many years have you been in the industry? Alas, the clip just now should be placed in C78. Only flashbacks and montages can make the audience like it..."
"enough--!"
"What kind of flashbacks are you? Flashbacks that the audience can't understand? I know you want to win awards and be sensational, but you can't edit randomly! That's not how montage is played! Lu Jue, do you understand editing?"
Finally, under Lu Jue's repeated persecution, Hao Jiaye finally broke out.
Lu Jue: "..."
The two looked at each other, and the scene fell into embarrassment.
Hao Jiaye gave a far-fetched smile, turned away his face full of fear, and said awkwardly: "Lu, Director Lu... I'm sorry, I was impulsive just now."
Lu Jue narrowed his eyes and looked at him without saying a word.
Hao Jiaye's heart tightened, he sat back in his chair, his eyes were fixed on the screen, his forehead was covered with cold sweat.In silence, he swallowed, and said with difficulty: "Director Lu, I'm really sorry just now..."
"do not say sorry."
"Compared with your apology, I want to know what you think."
Lu Jue supported the table with one hand, smiled and said: "Brother Hao, you have been in the industry for so long, and you must have more experience than me. Alright, let's talk about the clip just now."
Hao Jiaye's cheeks flushed when he heard this, he was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do.
To be honest, a 40-year-old middle-aged man made such an eye-catching expression, but Lu Jue was able to maintain his kindness and continued to persuade Hao Jiaye.
Hao Jiaye's expression changed again and again. Finally, he mustered up the courage to explain his thoughts to Lu Jue.
At this time, Lu Jue's expression changed, and the way he looked at Hao Jiaye was also different.It turns out that Hao Jiaye is not a tool guy who doesn't understand anything, but a boring technical talent who slanders in his heart every day.
Baiyun Film and Television.
The former Hao Jiaye also had a dream, but in Baiyun Film and Television, which places emphasis on qualifications, he has no platform to play.
What he can take over is only the leftovers left by his predecessors.
Working to support a family is hard work.
Hao Jiaye's edges and corners have been smoothed by life, but he also took time to edit and upload his works to the Internet.At that time, Huaxia Internet hadn't started for long, and there were only a handful of video websites.
Hao Jiaye's works are all re-creations of TV dramas and movies that have already been released.He was the first and only person to do it at the time.
Later, Hao Jiaye gradually faded out of the Internet just like the crow told the truth.
Unlike Crow, he only publishes his works and never mixes with social platforms such as Twitter, so the outside world naturally knows little about him.
Lu Jue didn't know Hao Jiaye's past, but could feel Hao Jiaye's changes.
Qingkong is different from Baiyun Film and Television.
When Hao Jiaye moved here, he just used it as a temporary springboard. He never thought that Lu Jue could make it bigger and stronger with his feet on the ground.
Be a monk for a day and hit the clock for a day.
His thoughts were filled with negativity, which was perfectly normal.
Because there was no hope, Hao Jiaye didn't pay much attention to the project, let alone put forward his own opinions at the risk of offending Lu Jue.
As a result, all the indifferences were broken by Lu Jue, Hao Jiaye couldn't hold back his temper that had been held back for a long time, and said a lot of words against the boss.
Lu Jue was very satisfied with this and asked him to continue working hard.
Hao Jiaye: "???"
Well, looking at the boss like this, he shouldn't deduct wages, right?
Hao Jiaye shrugged his shoulders, thinking happily.
At the same time, the United States.
Fang Huayu is the leader of Chinese actors, and also an important pawn for Lu Jue in Hollywood.Recently, something happened in the United States, which troubled Fang Huayu very much.
Here's the thing.
There is a Chinese actress, Annie Chen, who just turned 25 this year and has a neighbor.The neighbor was a black woman with a 26-year-old autistic son.
One day, when Annie passed by a neighbor's house, she suddenly saw the tall and strong black youth smashing furniture at home, while her mother fell to the ground with injuries, her forehead was covered with blood.
The woman asked Aini for help and told the child that she had a mental illness. When she asked her to call the police, she must emphasize to the police that they must not use violence against the child.
Aini called the police according to the woman's request, and then waited outside the door for the arrival of the police.When the police arrived, she repeated what the woman said again. As a result, the police broke into the door and saw the woman lying unconscious. When the black youth was waving the furniture again, they shot resolutely...
Black youth died.
After the woman woke up, she blamed Ai Ni and the police. She was interviewed by the media and, as a mother, she complained to everyone tearfully.
At the same time, the police, who were caught in a crisis of public opinion, claimed that they had not heard the reminder, and put all the responsibility on Ai Ni.
Ai Ni fell into cyber violence in this way.
After all, this is a human life, Ai Ni has no evidence, and this incident involves different races, so rash support will only cause trouble, Fang Huayu doesn't know whether to believe her or not.
After so many years, Fang Huayu, who has experienced all kinds of things, is still passionate, but he is no longer impulsive.
Just as he was hesitating, Brad, that is, Lu Jue, contacted Fang Huayu and asked him to stand with Aini and fight for more rights for overseas Chinese.
The gold master spoke, and Fang Huayu no longer hesitated, leading others to express support.
In an instant, all the Chinese-American actors on Facebook called the police, hoping to obtain the recording of the police. The incident became more and more troublesome, and finally attracted the attention of others.
Interestingly, without knowing it, Qi Nuo also forwarded their content to speak out for Chinese actors.
Seeing that the tense was mature, Lu Jue immediately contacted an internet celebrity and published a series of analysis tables.
Among them, a detailed count of the number of accidental killings by the police in the United States, and a summary of the accidental deaths, finally found that among the dead, black people accounted for the highest proportion...
In this way, under the intentional or unintentional guidance of this Internet celebrity, black people also stood up and sought the truth.
It is said that children who can cry have candy to eat, and outsiders don't like the restraint of Asians, they only bully those who don't speak.Only Fang Huayu and the others could attract limited attention after all, and as grumpy blacks joined in one by one, the voices requesting recording became louder and louder.
The author has something to say: You must have forgotten the films of Papa Lu and Jiang Zhixian before, right?
