Chapter 399 “Cleverness” and “Courage” [two in one]
It is said that although the project of "Painted Skin 2" has been approved and Ning Hao has already taken control of the crew, it is still early to start filming.
Because in addition to casting, there is still a lot of work that Ning Hao needs to prepare for.
What is a bit surprising is that this time Ning Hao was the first to establish the art department. And he was involved in almost every detail, from conceptual design to art style.
It can be seen from this that he attaches great importance to the picture of the movie this time.
It can be said that such behavior is very disturbing to Ning Hao!
But Gao Fei is happy to see the results.
After all, for successful directors like Ning Hao, innovation is a good thing.
Although it is a bit risky, at least he is not like Poet Chen who spends his whole life making one film!
So with Gao Fei's support, Ning Hao played more and more energetically.
From the studio scenery and props to the design and production of weapons, he strives to be realistic in every step. In particular, the general's mansion in the script is Ning Hao's top priority.
I don’t know if the directors are a bit obsessive and obsessive about details.
But others Gao Fei didn't know, but Ning Hao might have some idea.
Because he even had to personally look at the stone slabs in the general's mansion, the screen doors, screens, pillars, and the contents of the painted screens in the main hall.
Only after he nods can the art team and prop team start setting up the scene.
As a result, the preparation work for the movie naturally became more arduous.
Fortunately, the art designer of "Painted Skin 2" this time was Ye Jingtian, so although the preparation work for the film was tedious and heavy, it was busy but not chaotic.
But this way, Gao Fei had a rare moment of leisure.
So he didn't have to rush to join the filming, so he gave himself a small vacation.
…
October 8.
Saturday morning, ten thirty.
While migrant workers suffering from post-holiday syndrome were going to work feebly, Gao Fei was leisurely galloping around the racecourse.
Horse hooves tread the morning light, and the autumn wind blows softly on my face.
That’s called being free and uninhibited and feeling happy!
It's just that such a free and carefree situation is actually quite annoying sometimes.
At least at this moment, Zhao Liying outside the pasture was so envious that her eyes were almost red, and she even had the urge to go on strike in her heart.
And a certain greasy bald guy who came with her couldn't help but sigh:
"This is life!"
However, when he thought that his family, only forty years old, could not even raise tens of millions of investments, while Gao Fei, who was much younger than him, could own such a large horse farm around the capital, Xu Zheng suddenly felt that all these years had been in vain.
Alive.
But as soon as this emotion arose, it was suppressed by Xu Zheng, because he was not here to suffer from pancreatic acid, but to find money.
Thinking of this, the greasy smile on Xu Zheng's face suddenly became brighter.
At the same time, Gao Fei, who had been galloping around the river on horseback, also felt a little tired, so he turned around and walked back.
When he saw Zhao Liying and Xu Zheng waiting not far away, Gao Fei couldn't help but look at them in surprise.
But I really can’t imagine how these two people got together.
And judging from the posture of the two of them, it was obvious that they were not here to have fun. Thinking of this, Gao Fei was not in a hurry to wash his horse.
After handing the sweaty Hei Feng to the staff on the side, Gao Fei, who was dressed in riding gear, immediately held the fence on the side of the field with one hand and jumped out cleanly.
Seeing this, Xu Zheng on the side suddenly gave a thumbs up with a smile on his face and praised:
"Beautiful! Mr. Gao, your skills are really neat. You are worthy of being the new generation of Kung Fu Emperor!"
After hearing this, Gao Fei couldn't help but laugh and shook his head.
"Thank you very much, Teacher Xu."
"I can't bear this reputation!"
But even though he knew Xu Zheng was deliberately flattering, Gao Fei was still in a happy mood.
After all, if you wear it thousands of times, why don’t you wear it?
After the two exchanged a few words, Zhao Liying on the side also briefly talked about how they got to know each other.
It turns out that when we were filming "Unfortunate Journey", due to the limited budget of the crew, we had to choose to actually shoot at the Spring Festival travel scene.
It can be said that the entire film was created by the crew following the Spring Festival travel rush.
Even when director Ye Weixin was overwhelmed, some scenes were shot by Xu Zheng.
But as the heroine of the movie, Zhao Liying also became familiar with Xu Zheng.
Because it was her first movie heroine, her status in Zhao Liying's heart is quite important.
When Zhao Liying said this, Gao Fei's mind suddenly had some influence.
So he suddenly said:
"Oh, I remembered, was it the movie where the female lead was used to fool you?"
It is said that not long after the little round-faced girl became famous, a movie came to her and asked her to play the heroine, so she was really proud of it.
Therefore, after the movie was released, classmate Xiao Zhao went out of his way to ask for money and invited Gao Fei and Han Li to watch the movie.
I just didn't expect that the final product would be a bit embarrassing.
The promised heroine was not seen, but there were quite a few messy scenes.
And there is no female protagonist in the entire film.
It can be said that Xiao Yuan’s face was really humiliated, sir!
Because of this incident, classmate Xiao Zhao almost had a shadow of the cinema and did not dare to enter the cinema for several years.
Seeing what Gao Fei said, Zhao Liying suddenly remembered the movie-watching experience that almost killed her, so she couldn't help but blush and defended:
"Oh, I told you it's not like this. Besides, Sister Han also read the script. It's really not a lie."
When Xu Zheng heard this, he even explained with some embarrassment:
"That's true, Mr. Gao."
"Not only Liying, but also Baoqiang, me, Li Xiaolu, and Li Man had a lot of scenes deleted."
"By the way, the girl from Chengdu who plays Baoqiang's girlfriend is the worst among them."
"At that time, because the review opinions were vague and the producer was very urgent, the director simply deleted all her scenes."
After hearing this, Gao Fei nodded slightly.
If you put it this way, the inexplicable plots of "The Journey" can be explained.
Thinking like this, Gao Fei ignored the matter.
But then again, up to this moment Gao Fei was still a little curious about Xu Zheng's purpose.
Because he and Xu Zheng had known each other since they were filming "Crazy Stone".
Although they were just acquaintances, they were still old acquaintances.
Therefore, if Xu Zheng wants to visit him, there should be no need for Zhao Liying to recommend him.
So Gao Fei immediately didn't bother to talk anymore and went straight to the point and asked about the purpose of their visit.
But what Gao Fei didn't expect was that this matter was actually related to the movie "On the Road".
…
It was precisely because of the directorial experience that the crew of "Unfortunately Lost" had that made Xu Zheng become interested in becoming a director.
Although the idea is good, Xu Zheng has been unable to attract investment.
Although he has compressed all budgets to the extreme, no investor is still willing to give him 30 million to squander.
Even to some extent, he is considered a well-known actor.
But actors are actors, and it’s not that easy to cross over.
Even though Xu Jinglei and Yu Feihong seemed to have transformed from actors to directors easily, their methods were not learned by Xu Zhengneng.
(⊙o⊙)…No, you can’t learn Xu Jinglei’s method, but Xu Zheng can try Yu Feihong’s method.
only……
