China Entertainment: Director’s Happiness Is so Simple

Chapter 439: Long Wait, Inspiration

At this time, Zhang Songwen and others were still discussing how they would act in this film if they were to act in it themselves.

The result is the same, that is, everyone thinks they can do it, but they also admit that it will be difficult.

But if you really want to perform, the chances of winning a prize are extremely high.

So the feeling of envy arises spontaneously.

Especially Zhang Songwen.

Just like what Lu Pingan said to Jiang Wen just now.

He and Lu Ping'an have been hanging out for so many years.

I have won a lot of big projects, but I have never had the opportunity to really get a big breakthrough except for the first "The Tuner".

Now that Zhou Yiwei has been nominated for the Berlin Best Actor and the Huabiao Best Actor for "1937", he is very likely to win the Golden Rooster Best Actor or even the Golden Horse Best Best Actor.

Ning Hao has also become a major director with two films, and now he has begun to handle big projects worth 300 million yuan.

Liu Qianqian has also become an international celebrity.

Even Dong Xuan has been starring since "Goddess Dragon".

Only Zhang Songwen himself seemed to have no particularly good improvement after leaving Lu Ping An.

Not to mention Chen Kun and those on the outside of the Ping An circle, they are already famous.

To put it bluntly, if it weren't for Lu Ping'an, it's not certain whether people like Chen Kun would have a few words with him.

Of course, Zhang Songwen would not have any resentment towards Lu Ping An.

But this feeling of being slowly pulled apart all the way, if you really want to feel it carefully, it is indeed not something you rarely feel.

While thinking, Lu Pingan opened the door and said, "Awen, come here."

"coming."

Zhang Songwen stood up directly and began to think in his mind.

Speaking of which, he hasn't landed any particularly important roles in recent years.

But in Xingchen, his status is actually very high.

There are no big opportunities in front of the stage, but behind the scenes, he has always been a consultant on performance.

Usually, the actors in the crew, from the famous ones to the extras, if they can't meet the requirements of Lu Ping'an and Ning Hao, it is usually Zhang Songwen who takes action.

Because he can understand the thinking of Lu Ping'an and Ning Hao very well.

Just need to be a consultant today?

That was Jiang Wen, his teacher.

And compared to himself, Jiang Wen and Lu Ping'an can communicate better, right?

Do I need to teach him?

With this in mind, Zhang Songwen walked into the office.

Then he saw Jiang Wen looking at him with a smile: "Awen, we are going to bury you alive. What are your last words?"

Zhang Songwen first said "???", then "!!!", and finally "Me me me"

"Farewell to me, this is the script, read it quickly, you don't have to do anything for a while, just experience it in the coffin for half an hour."

Jiang Wen smiled and gave the order.

Lu Pingan also patted him on the shoulder: "Long wait."

Zhang Songwen pursed his lips. Although he didn’t want to admit it, his eyes were indeed starting to feel sore.

Half an hour later.

The envy of Chen Kun and others changed to Zhang Songwen.

Everyone looked at the coffin that had been covered with emotion.

It's just envy, there is no jealousy.

Everyone will only be happy for Zhang Songwen.

After all, it took seven years to wait for the chance to be the male protagonist again.

It’s really not easy!

After a while of emotion, everyone began to discuss what it felt like to be buried alive.

Lu Ping'an smiled directly and said: "I have prepared three coffins this time, let's try?"

Just try it.

Then, the one who persisted the longest was Mr. Zhou.

Because she is small, there is still a lot of space left when she lies in it, so she feels much less confined than others.

But she could only last 8 minutes.

And when everyone had finished the experience, almost half an hour had passed since Zhang Songwen was lying inside, but there was still no movement from Zhang Songwen.

It wasn't until 35 minutes later that Jiang Wen forced open the coffin and saw Awen hurriedly wiping away his tears, lying inside and looking at a circle of people outside with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm not in a good state today. I'm a little excited and I don't feel much. Feeling desperate, I have to try it tomorrow.”

After hearing this, everyone laughed and helped Zhang Songwen up.

"Buried Alive" was eventually handed over to Jiang Wen and Zhang Songwen.

The protagonist has changed, but the sponsors have not withdrawn their funding, which is not bad.

Zhang Songwen breathed a sigh of relief and then began to devote himself to the performance.

His current strength is actually fully capable of carrying it, and Lu Ping'an is waiting for the day when he will surprise everyone.

Not to mention Jiang Wen's words, he will still be the same when filming Lu Ping'an's script, the structure will remain unchanged, and everything can be assured.

This time "Buried Alive" involves some adaptations, and the original version is of course not applicable to mold-related ones.

So this time the protagonist is a former criminal working overseas for a Western multinational.

Expose the cold-blooded nature of capital.

The director is Jiang Wen, and Lu Ping'an might not be attacked this time.

Jiang Wen didn't ask for the director's salary, and even the director could sign his name.

Lu Pingan refused, not because he was afraid of being attacked, nor because he was reluctant to part with a skill, but because it was what it should be, and there was no need to make small moves.

In addition, this time "Buried Alive" not only gave Jiang Wen a good time and praised Zhang Songwen, but also had the task of cultivating a follow-up photography team.

The photographer of "Buried Alive" this time is Zhao Fei.

This person is a great guy, graduated from Nortel Photography Department.

In his early years, he directed "The Great Eunuch Li Lianying", "Raise the Red Lantern" and "Jing Ke Assassins Qin".

Later, he filmed "Cell Phone", "The Sun Also Rises", and later "Let the Bullets Fly".

He has won many international photography awards.

Before Ning Hao, many people in the industry thought that this person would be the first mainland photographer to win the Oscar for Best Cinematography.

In the end, Ning Hao took the lead, but this does not affect his level, which is indeed the top level in the industry.

Now Xingchen's first photographer Ning Hao has transformed into a director. After "Wonderful Night 2", it will be difficult for Lu Ping'an to use him to shoot future works, unless it is an award-winning movie.

So Xingchen needs a new backup photographer.

So now, with Zhao Fei joining the stall, Lu Ping'an can just let Xingchen's backup forces learn well.

And these backup forces are also full of talents.

There is Song Xiaofei who later shot "Lost in Thailand", "The Grandmaster" and "Heart Flower Road".

There are Wang Boxue who shot "Dying to Survive" and "City of Love".

They are all from Beijing Film Academy.

The future is promising.

In addition to "Buried Alive".

There are still many things to prepare for "Wonderful Night 2".

For example, music.

In the free time, Lu Ping'an sorted out the plot several times in the Golden Finger, and finally got a small surprise.

That is, when a piece of music was added to the end of the movie, the score of the whole movie after the latest match was 0.2 points higher than the highest score originally obtained!

And that piece of music was "Floating Light", and the English name of the lyrics and music was "History".

Now, Lu Ping'an has something to do again.

He has to make the music.

So he quickly contacted Zhao Jiping.

He was also the music composer of "Wonderful Night 1".

Zhao Jiping laughed after receiving the call: "I thought you would use the original song this time. Tell me, what kind of taste do you want this time."

"This time I have an immature idea."

The next day, Zhao Jiping went directly to Xingchen, and after listening to the demo made by Lu Ping'an himself, he was amazed.

Then he listened to the music of "Beauty Walk", and Zhao Jiping said directly: "Let's use the symphony orchestra this time!"

Lu Ping'an's eyes lit up, and soon a new idea came to his mind.

Then he quickly went to the bathroom and checked the Golden Finger, then nodded and said, "Okay, but I'll let them appear this time!"

A group role in a plot that is responsible for polishing and outputting BGM on the spot.

In this way, the overall music soundtrack will have a clear difference and transition.

From a single instrument thousands of years ago, to the final Chinese and Western symphony played by a large group.

With them, the movie score went up to 0.1 again.

Lu Ping'an felt the wonderful fun of live creation for the first time.

This time, for "Wonderful Night 2", he felt that he would be happy even if the box office failed.

After listening, Zhao Jiping praised again, "It's worthy of being Director Lu."

Then he suggested again: "Use my students from Xi'an Conservatory of Music. I will be the dean next year. Take care of my students, how about it?"

"Hahaha, of course!"
