623 , The Lord of Mysteries starts shooting
After reading the book for a while, the rain outside stopped and the sun illuminated the earth again.
Pan Xiaoting took out the clothes from the washing machine to dry, and suddenly another WeChat video chat invitation came on her phone.
I picked up my phone and saw that it was a video called by Lu Wan. I must have had something urgent to do. After answering the phone, I asked directly: "Hey, Mr. Lu!"
Lu Wan said anxiously: "There is a role for you to participate in the role, and you and Caroline will come to the office together!"
Pan Xiaoting was so excited: "Okay, I'll be crazy if I stay idle!"
After hanging up the phone, he immediately put on his shoes, grabbed his handbag and key and rushed out.
The car drove out of the community smoothly, called Caroline, told her that there was a role, and then drove directly over to pick her up.
After hearing this news, Caroline was happier than Pan Xiaoting. What does Chinese movies, Chinese characters, and Chinese culture look like have always been a mystery in her mind. She usually sees few Chinese movies on TV or the Internet because they are basically bad movies that cannot go abroad. She has watched several "Mu Shen Ji" series made by Xie Xiaoke, and she felt that it was very shocking. It was completely different from those American science fiction blockbusters.
Because of the emergence of "The Legend of Wood", fantasy movies have been pushed to the world stage. The leader of Asian films is China. American science fiction, European fantasy, and Chinese fantasy are collectively called the three major fantasies in the film industry. So far, although our film market occupies a place and does not have to be stronger in quality, the audience ratio is still not as high as the first two. Therefore, colleagues in science fiction, military, and other fields of films have always focused on fantasy because this represents the symbolic type of movies with Chinese characteristics. Since the United States can push science fiction to the top of the pyramid of world movies, then China has no possibility to push fantasy up again and rewrite world history.
To this end, Xie Xiaoke gave Lu Wan and Gong Qiu Wei the ultimate task, which is that Universal Studios promotes the main theme of fantasy, essence and this item without relaxing other types of films, forming the second largest complex of world films comparable to Hollywood.
Soon, Pan Xiaoting and Caroline came to Lu Wan's office.
Standing next to Lu Wan was her assistant named Shizuka, who specialized in handling work chores for her, that is, an office assistant. When she saw them coming in, she greeted her with a smile.
This time it is official working time, and they will soon have lunch, so Lu Wan said a long story short: "Sister Xiaoting, Caroline, you are going to star in a fantasy film this time called "The Lord of Secret", a TV series adapted from the fantasy novel from Chefei Chinese. The drama will invite many actors from home and abroad. In two days, Mr. Xie will also send a group of Hollywood actors back. Pan Xiaoting plays the goddess of night in the play, and Caroline plays Melissa."
The two of them stood at Lu Wan's desk and were stunned.
The crew has already arranged in advance this time, and the cast list is in Shizuka's hands. She gently handed the list to Pan Xiaoting and said, "This is the list of actors of the Lord of Secrets, you can take a look!"
Pan Xiaoting took the list and took a rough look. The male lead is Zhang Yisan and the female lead is Yang Zi. How could this group feel like a family and children? Then there are all actors with good acting skills invited from outside. However, Hu Chu, Shi Xiaolong, Zhou Dongyu and others are not among them. This is very strange. He asked, "Why are we here? What about the other actors in the company?"
"Shi Xiaolong, Zhou Dongyu, and Wu Qian have already started to prepare for filming "Mu Shenji 4". Hu Chu also participated in the protagonist of another movie "There is Demonic Here" a month later. Mr. Xie specifically explained that the progress of our current filming must be accelerated!" Lu Wan said seriously.
Oh my God, do you need to hurry up like this?
Pan Xiaoting felt very idle when she was free, and she was really tired when she was busy, but she was very fulfilling and could experience a more realistic interpretation of life. She couldn't wait to go to the shooting location and asked, "When will it start?"
"The startup ceremony was held on August 15th. The first attraction of the shooting was held in Jinyun County, Zhejiang Lishui. Because the situation is special this time, all shooting locations are not in Shencheng, so if you are fine now, you can go there first to take a look. This is the script, and there is a detailed information about the shooting location attached to it!"
After saying that, he handed the script to each of them and announced: "Okay, I have told you the general situation. Take the script back and see it first to wish you a good journey!"
"Thank you, Mr. Lu!"
"Let's go, Caroline!"
"OK!"
...
A month later on the evening of August 9th.
Pan Xiaoting and Caroline packed their things at home respectively. They set off tomorrow. It only took more than 4 hours to drive from Shencheng to Jinyun County, so Pan Xiaoting decided to drive by herself. She was so tired that she could take a break from the middle of the journey. It was more troublesome to take the high-speed rail. She didn't know which day's ticket she could buy, so she directly gave up this idea.
After returning home, Pan Xiaoting looked at the detailed introduction of the script. Many of the scenes of this TV series were filmed in the Xiandu Scenic Area in Jinyun County, so we can shoot movies, travel and work and life. So we brought all the items needed for travel, including sportswear, selfie sticks, travel backpacks, etc.
The next morning, she brought all her belongings to another car, which was more suitable for a long-distance Maserati SUV to pick up Caroline.
Caroline's things have been moved downstairs and just put them in the car with her. After everything is ready, drive away.
There are only two of them this time. Pan Xiaoting usually prefers to be alone, but does not like open and noisy occasions. Every time she goes out to shoot, she follows the crew's car. This time, she enjoys the quiet time even more.
"You brought so many things? Sister Xiaoting!" Caroline asked curiously, she had to do it with only one bag.
Pan Xiaoting smiled and explained: "This place is one of the very beautiful attractions. We went there in advance and could play for two days first. When shooting later, we could also visit the scenic spot, so I have a lot of spare things!"
"Oh, how long will it take for us to arrive!"
"It's very fast, 4, 5 hours, don't worry!"
Just as they were rushing to Jinyun County with great enthusiasm, Zhang Yisan and Yang Zi also started preparing in Shencheng. Their departure time was tomorrow, on the afternoon of July 11, and the company staff, the director team and the prop team were all together. There were a lot of people and a lot of things, so Pan Xiaoting didn't go with them.
Chapter completed!
