Chapter 449 He Changed the Entertainment Industry

After discussion, the place where Jianzhen successfully crossed the sea to the east, Su Z, was determined as the recording location for the first few episodes of "National Glory".

And Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, is also an important recording location.

This also determines the era of experiencing military life - the Tang Dynasty.

After all, when it comes to Sino-Japanese friendship, the Tang Dynasty is the most suitable dynasty. There were relatively few exchanges before the Tang Dynasty, and the exchanges after the Tang Dynasty were relatively unfriendly.

For China, although the Tang Dynasty was prosperous and declined, and the middle and late Tang Dynasty is hard to describe, it reached the peak of the ancient empire during the heyday of the Tang Dynasty.

For the Japanese, the Tang Dynasty is an important source and teacher of their culture. Even the anti-China Japanese also worship the Tang Dynasty.

Even their description of the territory of the giant Tang is more exaggerated than the map in our textbooks.

——But this does not mean that they are friendly to us. Instead, they have always wanted to steal the culture of the Tang Dynasty and regard themselves as the inheritors of Tang culture.

The two rebellious sons of East Asia respectively concocted the rhetoric of "the orthodoxy of the Tang Dynasty is in Japan" and "the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty is in Korea". They both wanted to take advantage of the moment when we were at a low point in history and wanted to steal our glorious history and gild their ancestors.

In any case, Japan worships the Tang Dynasty and has no objection to the recording location determined by Gong Huaichang.

And then, the competitive events were quickly determined.

Basically, they followed the principle of "friendship" and there was no gunpowder smell. They belonged to game-like competitions.

For example, in a wrestling match, it was not that two people directly fell, which would become a sports competition and would be highly confrontational.

Instead, the two people put on thick fat doll costumes, covered their eyes, and fell under the command of their teammates. This would definitely lead to many mistakes and many jokes.

As for the sure-win competition arranged for Su Zhe, it was archery. This was his performance project and no one could challenge him.

In this regard, Su Zhe had no objection at all, so he did not participate in it in depth. He left it to Gong Huaichang to prepare and went back to film.

"The Detective Lin Mo" (i.e. the "Tang Detective" web drama) had already finished casting and had already started filming.

Su Zhe looked at the cast list and found an acquaintance - Li Wenshi.

She played the role of junior sister Yue Lingshan in "Swordsman" and had a good relationship with Su Zhe. The two of them, Liang Zhiruo and Cheng Lanyun were inseparable in the crew.

But later, there was no chance to work together. People in the entertainment industry were very busy and had no time to get together. The close relationship at the beginning gradually faded.

And as Zhang Hongwei's company was merged into Long Aotian, Su Zhe also became Li Wenshi's boss. She felt that the relationship was a bit awkward and contacted less often.

This time, she played Ivy in "Detective Lin Mo" and didn't even tell Su Zhe, which made Su Zhe feel a little awkward:

"Junior sister is actually in the crew, I have to go visit her."

He quickly took time to go to the crew in Thailand and was immediately surrounded by the actors.

Su Zhe chatted for a few words and then called Li Wenshi:

"Junior sister, are you free next week? Let's go to Uncle Liang's house to see the little Ruo Ruo they adopted. Sister Cheng will go too."

At the beginning, he, Li Wenshi, and Cheng Lanyun went to Liang Zhiruo's house together to attend her memorial service.

Now that Liang's parents have adopted Ruo Ruo, it's a good opportunity to go and see him together.

Although they don't know that Ruo Ruo is Liang Zhiruo's reincarnation, it's also an explanation.

Li Wenshi chuckled:

"Big brother, whether I am free next week depends on you, doesn't it?"

Su Zhe shook his head and laughed:

"Okay, I'll ask the crew to give you a holiday."

"By the way, does Ruo Ruo really look like Sister Liang?"

The two chatted as if they had returned to the old days.

The other actors looked on enviously.

The cast of "Detective Lin Mo" is relatively mixed. Long Aotian found some actors from Hong Kong Island and Southeast Asia, hoping to attract more audiences through this spin-off series.

Therefore, compared with the dramas that Long Aotian and Mary Sue collaborated on, the management of this crew is more difficult, and there are more common phenomena such as fighting for shots and couples in the crew.

Even Li Wenshi, as a direct descendant, felt it.

There were male actors and assistant directors who tried to flirt with her, relying on personal charm, and wanted to use resources and so-called background to suppress her.

Or the so-called stars, who were very arrogant and never looked at her straight in the eye, and even had to rely on assistants to convey their words.

Moreover, there was no authentic heroine in this drama. Lin Mo, like Qin Feng and Tang Ren, was a single dog. The girls he knew were either victims, witnesses, or even murderers.

For example, Ivy was the murderer, but she was the most charming murderer. She was a member of the Smiley Group and Q, and she was so charming that she could barely be considered the heroine.

But other actresses were not convinced, so they thought of various tricks, competed for lines and shots, and even tried to change the script to move her highlight plot to themselves.

——It is very common in the entertainment industry. Some actors don’t care about the final effect and ratings of the TV series. They just want to make all the "fan-attracting" plots happen on themselves.

As long as they are popular, the success or failure of the TV series has nothing to do with them?

But it is obvious that the actors who dare to do this are habitual offenders, but they hit a wall in the crew of Su Zhe's screenwriter.

Su Zhe was not alarmed at all. The crew directly fired the actor who made trouble and replaced him.

It is not easy to find a three-legged frog in the entertainment industry, but aren't there actors with two legs everywhere?

Although the problem was solved, these contradictions made Li Wenshi feel exhausted.

As a student who has not graduated yet, she has not filmed many dramas. As soon as she entered the industry, she experienced the atmosphere of "Swordsman". Top stars such as Su Zhe and Cheng Lanyun were very kind to her and never put on airs.

As for other film and television dramas with Long Aotian and Mary Sue, there are not so many messy things. Everyone is focused on filming, only thinking about how to play their roles better, without thinking about harming others, and there is no need to be wary of being harmed.

In fact, are everyone on those crews really so pure?

Not necessarily, but under the pressure of the great god Su Zhe, no one dared to be a monster and could only film honestly, and the atmosphere was much better.

Unlike now, where has she really experienced such a complicated crew? I always feel that I only have 50% energy to focus on acting, and Ivy didn't even perform well.

However, after Su Zhe chatted with her for a while, the way everyone in the crew looked at her changed instantly:

"She has such a good relationship with Mr. Su?"

"She never mentioned it. I thought it was just a simple collaboration."

"I didn't expect that we are still good friends. Isn't Li Wenshi too low-key?"

After Su Zhe left, Li Wenshi found that she suddenly had more smiles than she had ever received since joining the group.

The person who used disgusting methods to tease her suddenly came over and said flattering words, which made her even more disgusting.

As for the "big star" who has eyes above her head, she no longer needs an assistant to send messages, but comes over in person to chat with her.

When this "big star" surrendered, Li Wenshi discovered that the other party had a high emotional intelligence, was very good at talking, and made people feel at ease.

The magical experience after Su Zhe left made Li Wenshi smile bitterly, thinking of the conversation he had with his classmates.

Her classmates were envious of her entering the entertainment industry and filming blockbusters, and they all asked her how she felt.

At that time, she responded innocently:

"It feels like rehearsing in school, except that the actors acting opposite are better and more famous."

When someone asked her about gossip about the entertainment industry, she responded righteously:

"How can it be so chaotic? It's all exaggerated by self-media. In fact, everyone is very good. Acting is just work."

Now, she suddenly recalled the surprised eyes and disbelieving expressions of her classmates and classmates when they heard her words.

"It turns out that this is not the original appearance of the entertainment industry. It is only like this around Big Brother."

She lay on the hotel bed, recalling in her mind the man who always had a faint confident smile:

"This is the change he brought to the entertainment industry."

Can one person change the environment?

Li Wenshi didn't believe it before, but now she firmly believes:

"That's it, big brother!"

Not only the environment of the crew, but also the quality of the work, the status of the screenwriter, the regularization of the crew, and even the overseas release of the work.

Li Wenshi was still a student and only had one foot in the circle, which made Su Zhe's influence even more evident.

"Big Brother is really awesome!"

She rolled over on the bed, squawking like a silly woodchuck, and suddenly sighed.

She didn't know why, she just felt a little regretful:

"Hey, Senior Brother is so outstanding..."

…

On the other hand, Su Zhe joined the team after visiting the class and started filming "Garland Under the Mountain".

Since the military region has complete information, props, tactics, and even actual combat examples, it is easy to obtain as long as the military region supports it.

Therefore, the crew prepared quickly. Unlike "Star You", the historical props had to be worked out little by little in detail.

But although the crew prepared quickly, they encountered a lot of troubles when it came time to actually shoot.

The most troublesome thing is the content of the war scenes.

Su Zhe has filmed many dramas, among which idol dramas are the easiest to film. Kissing and hugging the heroine makes filming easy and enjoyable.

Realistic-themed dramas require high acting skills, but the shooting is not difficult and there are basically no action scenes.

The most difficult thing is the martial arts drama. Action scenes are really difficult to shoot. Both the actors' martial arts scenes and the director's scheduling of scenes are full of challenges.

But now, he must say - war scenes are the most difficult to shoot!

In war scenes, there are a lot of explosion scenes. It is necessary to bury the explosion points in advance and plan the route to avoid being bombed.

Su Zhe was acting and moving around, watching hot spots explode around him, throwing himself down and other actions, and his whole body was covered in dust.

Sometimes, for the sake of authenticity, he had to get closer to the explosion point. Although the explosion team assured that there would be absolutely no danger, and even according to the requirements of the crew, the explosion team had to run it before the actors.

——This is also a requirement of all stunt teams. The coercion team must also use the coercion first and use their own lives to ensure that they will not take it lightly.

But the world is always full of surprises.

Even if there is a guarantee, some people will be thrown to death in the pressure show, and some people will be burned in the explosion scene.

Su Zhe glanced at the system's life-saving [Resuscitation Talisman] before stepping forward boldly.

Fortunately, there was no accident and his talisman was saved.

In addition to safety challenges, war dramas also have very high scheduling requirements for the crew.

From the leading actors to the extras, from the cameramen to the stage managers, everyone must not have any problems. They must be a mature crew to do this.

Therefore, the crew of "Garland" has been filming for a long time, just to make the war scenes grand and shocking.

Su Zhe has prepared an investment of 1 billion for this drama, not counting his own salary, while the salaries of other actors are not high.

He just wanted to spend all his money on war scenes and create shocking scenes.

This is the logic of commercial blockbusters. They must satisfy the audience visually, so that they have to enter the cinema and watch the shocking war scenes on the big screen.

In fact, the 1 billion investment is slightly lower than the previous "Changjin Lake", but he feels that there are too many war scenes in "Changjin Lake", which is a bit aesthetically fatigued.

And there are too few literary scenes, and some contents that can be portrayed in depth, such as the people at the railway station delivering supplies (scarves), the people of the Southern Dynasty, the ice sculpture company, etc., are just mentioned.

This greatly reduces the appeal of the literary drama. It is all because the prototype is so touching that even if the movie only shows 10%, it makes the audience burst into tears.

In Su Zhe's opinion, this situation is mainly caused by the director's greed and putting many touching stories into the movie, which makes it impossible to tell each story thoroughly.

At the same time, there are too many war scenes, which squeeze the length of the literary drama.

But the original film of "Wallen" has too few war scenes, which are almost only used as content to advance the plot, and there are not many war scenes at all.

This is easy to understand. There was no concept of commercial films at that time. The purpose of shooting war scenes is to be realistic, not to shock the audience.

But when Su Zhe filmed "The Wreath", he must make up for this shortcoming, balance the literary and martial arts, and make "The Wreath" more commercial.

So in addition to the big scenes, some exciting battle scenes must be filmed, such as the battle of the communication tower in "Changjin Lake".

Although this small-scale battle is far away from the Battle of Changjin Lake, it is really wonderful.

After all, when the audience comes to watch the movie and put themselves in the protagonist's shoes, they always have to see his close-ups of great power, not just the big scenes.

Therefore, in "The Wreath", there must be a battle shot of Zhao Mengsheng showing his great power, so as to show that he has become a firm revolutionary fighter after education and tempering, which is in sharp contrast to the young master of the second generation of the Reds at the beginning of the movie.

Otherwise, Zhao Mengsheng would not be likable at all, and might not even be as good as Wanli played by the prince.

For this reason, Su Zhe specifically went to the military region and reviewed the battle deeds of the heroes at that time, wanting to design a military exploit for Zhao Mengsheng.

But after watching the performances of those combat heroes, he was dumbfounded:

"If these deeds are filmed in a movie, the audience will think they are fabricated, right?"

He scratched his head and felt that even if he had a system, he could not compare with the combat heroes.

It was too exaggerated, and the movie dared not shoot like this.

He could only restrain himself. Anyway, Zhao Mengsheng was not a combat hero, so he just had to show his bravery and combat ability.

Let him become a qualified soldier and complete the character arc of the literary drama in the martial arts drama, so that there are both the big scenes of commercial films and the thinking of literary films.

"I wonder how many ratings and box office my revised "Wallen" can get?"
