Unscientific Movie King

Chapter 201 Factory Manager is Online

Chapter 201 Factory Manager is Online
In mid-October, when the box office revenue of Lost on Journey came in, Qin Chuan looked at the more than 300 million yuan in revenue and officially set foot on the filming location of the new play.

The moment he went downstairs, a brand new Maybach was already parked downstairs waiting.

The previous Rolls-Royce was given to Huang Bo, and this is his new car.

A lot more low-key.

Two hours later, Maybach left Peking, and three hours later, it arrived at its destination.

The filming location this time is not far away, it is right next to Peking.

“Brother.”

As soon as he arrived, a girl with shoulder-length hair waved at him.

The champion of Super Girl 2007, Li Yuchun.

After winning the championship, he successfully signed a contract with Tianyu Media. In addition to singing, he is also developing towards the film and television industry.

“Hello.” Qin Chuan stretched out his hand.

The name of this movie is Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate, and the starring actor is Li Lianjie, who plays the second male lead.

Because he had to play two roles, one of which was a eunuch, his total number of scenes was more than Li Lianjie’s.

He thought the play was interesting, so he took it.

This has absolutely nothing to do with Li Lianjie’s promise that he would not attend any award ceremony for this drama.

“Senior brother, please take care of me.” Li Yuchun shook hands with a smile and a very humble attitude.

She is a singer and is an amateur at acting.

There are no acquaintances in this crew.

It was also the first time that Qin Chuan met them. Because they were both artists of Tianyu, their relationship was naturally closer.

Whether in singing or acting, Qin Chuan is her senior, so naturally she doesn’t dare to put on airs.

I knew the cast of this play before I came here, Li Lianjie, Qin Chuan, Zhou Xun, none of them is someone she can match.

“You’re welcome.” After a few simple greetings, Qin Chuan asked, “Are all the others here?”

“Teacher Li Lianjie arrived yesterday, but Teacher Zhou Xun hasn’t arrived yet.” Li Yuchun added, “I heard she’ll be here this afternoon.”

“Is that so? Is there a meeting tonight?”

“should be.”

“Brother, let me help you with your luggage.”

Li Yuchun enthusiastically took Qin Chuan’s suitcase and walked forward, introducing him to the current situation of the crew.

For example, directors, martial arts instructors, and drama instructors.

Qin Chuan had known for a long time that the director was Xu Lao Mo, so he was not surprised. What he did not expect was that the martial arts instructor was Cheng Xiaodong, who was an old acquaintance of his.

The two have collaborated many times.

“Xiao Li, can I call you that?”

“Okay.” Li Yuchun forced a smile.

She really wanted to say that she was only one year younger than Qin Chuan.

But he didn’t say this in front of Qin Chuan.

With Qin Chuan’s identity and status, he can afford to call him Xiao Li.

Although the two are only one year apart in age and their respective graduations from Super Girl were not far apart in time, Qin Chuan’s status is much higher than hers.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that he is the most popular artist of the young generation.

The movie she just starred in earned more than 1.1 billion at the box office. Not to mention that she would have to respond if someone called her Xiao Li, she would have to respond even if someone called her Lao Li.

“How many days have you been on the set?”

“About ten days. I’ve been practicing martial arts recently.” Li Yuchun said, “It’s just that it’s not easy to practice alone without an opponent.”

The martial arts routine requires two actors to fight against each other. Since the others didn’t come, she was alone, so it was not easy to practice.

The crew did arrange a martial arts teacher to fight with her, but she knew that a martial arts teacher and an actor are different.

Martial artists are all professionals and they may not make a mistake even if they fight ten times.

The opponent actor is different, and the strength, angle, and proficiency of the kung fu moves are all questionable.

If she had a choice, she would still like to fight with the opposing actor and try to master the martial arts before filming begins.

Because she also wants to be the second Qin Chuan.

Songs, movies and TV series are available for viewing.

“Take your time, don’t rush. Some moves will be better if you practice them after the filming begins…”

The two chatted until they reached the hotel floor.

In the evening, the main actors of the crew met.

Qin Chuan met Li Lianjie again.

“Brother Jie.”

“Brother Chuan!”

It had only been a short time since they last met, but Li Lianjie already called Qin Chuan “brother” when he saw him.

“Brother Jie, don’t joke around.”

“You must be joking. You are a billionaire director now. Remember to look for me if you find a good role later.”

Li Lianjie hooked his arm around Qin Chuan’s shoulder and talked and laughed.

During the conversation, Qin Chuan realized that he only took part in this play to give face to Xu Lao Mo, and that he himself was not in good health and had been recuperating from an injury recently.

Having already won the Best Actor Award at the Academy Awards, I have no regrets in this life.

This is also the reason why this drama is not participating in the awards.

Qin Chuan noticed that Li Lianjie’s complexion was indeed not very good, his temples were all gray, and he did not look as energetic as last year.

The beads on her neck are very eye-catching.

Seeing him staring at his beads, Li Lianjie smiled and said, “This thing keeps you safe. I’ll take you to meet someone later and you can get one too.”

“Does it work?” Qin Chuan asked.

“Oh, how can I dare to promise you anything? I just want to comfort myself.”

“Forget it, I don’t have any money.”

Qin Chuan had some understanding of the price of Dzi beads. Some were worth tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, like the one Li Lianjie had now.

It’s higher than his salary for a movie.

His salary for this drama was only 15 million.

“If you don’t have money, then we are all poor.” The film just earned over 1 billion at the box office, and the profit share is several hundred million. Who would believe Qin Chuan when he says he has no money?

However, seeing that he was not interested in Dzi beads, Li Lianjie did not force him.

The two were chatting when the play’s heroine Zhou Xun and director Xu Laomo and others walked in from outside the door.

Qin Chuan and Li Lianjie stood up to greet them.

“Brother Chuan.”

“Sister Xun, I am so embarrassed.”

“Director Qin.”

“Director Xu, stop joking.”

“Coach Cheng, long time no see.”

The previous “The Warlords” shot by Chen Kexin had a large cast, but it was still a little bit inferior to this “Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate”.

The second female lead, Li Yuchun, is also very popular, and she attracts crowds of people wherever she goes.

But compared with the leading actors Li Lianjie, Qin Chuan, and Zhou Xun, he is still several levels behind.

These three are top artists in the country and also have a certain degree of fame internationally.

Not to mention Li Lianjie, the only one who is more popular than him is Cheng Long.

Zhou Xun, nicknamed Miss Zhou, if one were to describe her in one sentence, it would be that she has won all the awards.

He has won all the international awards, and his popularity and acting skills are even better than Zhang Yimou’s.

A few years ago, she starred in a TV series called “The Orange Is Red”. Her character was called Xiuhe. Because Xiuhe’s costume was so beautiful, everyone called it Xiuhe clothing. Now this dress has become the wedding dress for many women.

After Qin Chuan finished greeting, Li Yuchun followed behind and said with a smile: “Hello, teachers. I am the new actor Li Yuchun. Please take care of me.”

I was in my twenties that year and stood like a minion.

Sitting at the same table with these big guys is really stressful.

“The little girl is really energetic.” Zhou Xun looked at her and said, “How old are you?”

“From 1984.”

“That’s about the same as Qin Chuan.”

“My junior sister from the same school.” Qin Chuan added: “Super Girl champion, she sings very well.”

“Yeah, that’s great.”

“No, no, I can’t compare to Brother Chuan.”

“too humble.”

There are no stupid people in the entertainment industry. There are few fools among those who have been in the industry for a long time, and no one looks down on Li Yuchun.

For a singer to play the second female lead, you can tell there’s something fishy going on between them.

They would naturally not offend the artists that Tianyu supports.

After everyone was seated, Xu Lao Mo took the lead in talking about the topic, and talked about the theme and shooting plan of the play.

In fact, he didn’t need to introduce it, as everyone here had already done their homework before coming.

Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate, this movie is no stranger to me.

The previous version was called New Dragon Inn, produced by Xu Lao Mo and starring Maggie Cheung, Tony Leung Ka Fai, Zhen Zidan and others.

The same three main characters, this time they are Zhou Xun, Li Lianjie, and Qin Chuan.

The role played by Qin Chuan is similar to that played by Zhen Zidan, both are eunuchs.

But this time he has an extra clone, Fenglidao.

It’s a bit difficult for one person to play two roles.

In terms of investment, the manufacturing cost of Longmen Flying Armor this time is much higher than that of Longmen Inn.

After all, where Li Lianjie is, there are no cheap movies.

The cost for him alone was 90 million.

Therefore, the total budget of this film is 35 million US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 200 million yuan in domestic currency.

It sounds quite impressive, but in fact, apart from the salaries of Li Lianjie, Qin Chuan and Zhou Xun, the cost of production was only about 100 million yuan.

It is not yet known how much of this is publicity expenses.

Qin Chuan was a little worried about the investors and whether they could make a profit.

With an investment of more than 200 million yuan, the box office revenue must reach more than 600 million yuan to make a profit.

Do you really think everyone is on the road?

“Qin Chuan, you have a lot of fighting scenes this time, are you confident?”

As everyone was chatting, martial arts instructor Cheng Xiaodong said something.

Qin Chuan hasn’t made a martial arts film for a long time, and Cheng Xiaodong has doubts about his martial arts attainments.

As far as he knows, the last time Qin Chuan filmed a martial arts scene was in The Myth and Chinese Paladin III, but although those two films said to have martial arts scenes, there were actually not many of them, and most of them were literary scenes.

Including The Warlords, there are not many martial arts scenes of Zhao Erhu.

It has been a long time since Qin Chuan made a real martial arts film.

If you look closely at his acting career, it is somewhat similar to that of Li Lianjie. Both of them shot too many martial arts films and then gradually moved towards literary dramas.

In recent years, his acting skills in literary dramas have been getting better and better, but his martial arts skills have lagged behind.

“Coach Cheng, don’t you know me well? When have I ever failed to deliver? Don’t worry, I can handle it.”

“Don’t brag, kid. Let’s go practice tomorrow.”

“no problem.”

Yu Huatian used sword techniques, focusing on lightness and body movements, and he didn’t think it would be a big problem.

Xu Lao Mo said: “We are using 3D techniques for this filming. This is the first time in China. It is the first time for everyone to experience it. Please try to cooperate as much as possible.”

“For the filming of this drama, I invited all the photographers from Avatar.”

3D shooting, the first time in China, Avatar photographer, these words did not scare Qin Chuan, Li Lianjie, Zhou Xun and others.

Li Yuchun’s palms were full of sweat. These words sounded so high-sounding, and she was worried that she would fail during the filming.

“Interesting, this is my first time seeing this.” Li Lianjie became interested: “I know about 3D with Xianxia, ​​but I’ve never tried it with Wuxia.”

A few years ago, Xu Ke made a fantasy film called Shushan.

The box office wasn’t very good at the time, but the special effects used in it were amazing.
