I made a ghost movie, why did I become a heavenly master?

Chapter 237 "Zombie 2" and "The Grudge", shooting at the same time! (Please subscribe and ask for a monthly pass!)
"What is the other movie Director Lin made? It's mysterious. It's been several days, and I don't believe it at all."

"They seem to only be filming in that room. Director Lin himself is the director and director of photography, and Captain Li and the others are the only actors...they are so tight-lipped that they don't reveal any information at all."

"With such a small number of people, what is enough to shoot, don't you need extras?"

During the break, the crew of "Mr. Zombie 2" are gathering together and discussing with each other.

A few days ago, after Lin Zheng came back, he immediately started shooting a new movie.

But unlike before.

This time, Lin Zheng made two films together.

One of them, of course, is "Mr. Zombie 2", which has been previewed before.

Lin Zheng is still the director and lead actor, and at the same time, he is also coordinating all matters in the entire crew.

But he is no longer like before, doing everything by himself.

Instead, he handed over some relatively simple matters that were not absolutely necessary to him, to Mr. Chen, Liang Chi, and some staff members of the Blade of Unexpected Destruction.

He himself, with Zhang Xirou, Li Changsheng and other people with the Blade of Unexpected Destruction, ran to another set together to shoot another movie!
But the problem is that this movie is very mysterious.

Even though, both movies have already started filming for nearly three days.

But Teacher Chen and Liang Chi still haven't received any valuable information.

Whenever they asked, Lin Zheng kept it a secret.

Li Changsheng and the others also kept their secrets secret.

No news was leaked at all.

"All I know is that their shooting location seems to be in the same room, and they didn't even take any exterior shots. Director Lin told me this specifically during a chat," Liang Chi said.

"A room doesn't need extras..." Mr. Chen frowned suddenly, took a breath, and then immediately looked at Liang Chi, and said solemnly: "Don't you think that... Director Lin's mysterious movie Does the configuration look a little familiar?"

Liang Chi looked at Teacher Chen's expression, and after a moment of stupefaction, he also came to his senses instantly.

He immediately widened his eyes, and blurted out four words: ""Ghost Story"?"

Teacher Chen also nodded seriously.

Although, Lin Zheng's previous three pure horror films have been banned.

Many people now no longer know the names of "Ghost Story" and "Kun Chi Yan".

But as a crew member who has been by Lin Zheng's side since the very beginning.

Both Mr. Chen and Liang Chi have personally experienced the shooting of those three films!
Among the three films, "Ghost Story" happened to only need one house as the shooting location.

And the family living in that house as the main characters.

At that time, Lin Zheng had a very difficult life, and it was difficult to find extras for ghost movies.

So in this version of Blue Star's "Ghost Story", there are even only a few people in the crew.

And all of this is very similar to the mysterious movie that Lin Zheng is shooting.

"Could it be that Director Lin is going to shoot a scary ghost movie again?"

"I don't think it should be. Eternal Pictures failed before. Although their movie box office is not bad, even a fool can tell that it's fake. Only those brainless fans are still hypnotizing themselves."

"That's right, the box office of the three films we made before wasn't very good. The market has proven that it's impossible to make money with purely scary ghost films. Why does Director Lin still want to make them?"

"The most important thing is that word-of-mouth has an impact. How has Eternal Pictures been scolded? Making such a movie at Blue Star is just asking for scolding. If Director Lin really made it, it might affect the box office and sales of the zombie series." Word of mouth!"

"Before, the officials were quite resistant to that kind of movie. Director Lin and the officials are so close, logically speaking, this kind of thing shouldn't be done."

Teacher Chen and Liang Chi immediately started discussing.

But no matter who it is, there is no way to understand it.

"Maybe that's not the case? I remember once before, Director Lin specifically said that he would not make any more scary movies."

Lin Manyu, who was beside her, also interjected at the right time.

Several people stopped discussing, you looked at me, I looked at you, there was only blankness on each other's faces.

"Director Chen, Director Lin is back!"

At this moment, the shouts of the staff suddenly came from not far away.

Teacher Chen stood up, looked towards the entrance of the studio, and immediately saw a familiar black commercial vehicle parked there.

then,

Lin Zheng, who was wearing a Taoist robe, and Zhang Xirou, who was holding a black cat.

Li Changsheng, Mei Jixing, Cao Desheng and others who were also dressed up in the film got out of the car one after another and walked towards the set.

Because right now, Lin is making two films at the same time.

In order not to affect efficiency, he usually runs on both sides.

Metropolis is on the side of the "Mr. Zombie 2" crew during the day.

And in the evening and evening, I will go to the crew of another mysterious movie.

Take your breaks in the morning.

Because of this, the filming process of "Mr. Zombie 2" has also been adjusted to a certain extent.

In the morning, there was no plot of Uncle Jiu.

After Lin Zheng and others rushed over in the afternoon, they started filming the scene with Uncle Nine.

Wait until the zombie crew, after all the daytime scenes have been filmed.

Invert again.

Of course, some of the personnel scheduling will definitely be adjusted according to the requirements of the crews of both parties.

Moreover, it will first meet the needs of the zombie crew.

This will not cause any confusion, because the shooting of the film itself does not follow the plot.

The crew is only responsible for taking all the material that may be needed for the entire movie, and shooting it with the camera according to the requirements of the director, screenwriter and script.

When the shooting is completed and edited, these materials will be arranged, combined and adjusted according to the development sequence and timeline of the story.

to form a complete movie.

What's more, Teacher Chen and the others not only have the detailed script provided by Lin Zheng, but also the storyboard script.

Then there's the plethora of professionals that Blade of Destruction offers.

So even if Lin Zheng was away for a long time, there would be no problem with the operation of the crew.

Seeing Lin Zheng and others approaching, Teacher Chen, Liang Chi and Lin Manyu immediately surrounded him.

They had already finished shooting in the morning.

During the middle period, it was a rest, and it was also to wait for Lin Zheng and others to come over before starting the afternoon filming.

"How do you feel today?"

Lin Zheng looked at Teacher Chen, Liang Chi and the others with a smile.

Especially on Liang Chi who was wearing a military uniform and a pair of glasses. In order to get closer to the character, he also specially ate himself up a lot, staying on Liang Chi for a long time.

I don't know if it's because of these movies.

The current Liang Chi is more and more like Captain Ah Wei.

Even Lin Zheng felt a little funny after taking a look at it.

"It went very well, all the materials are kept, just waiting for you to come over to check and sign for receipt."

As the assistant director and also the highest person in charge of the crew, Mr. Chen immediately replied with a smile.

Now with official support behind him, Lin Zhengque may still have a lot of things, but he is not short of money.

So this movie can also be rich and powerful.

For better results, he asked Mr. Chen to take as many copies of almost all the materials as possible.

In this way, there will be no problems when he edits it later.

And after coming to the set every day, he will set aside a part of his time.

Roughly inspect what has already been photographed.

Even if he is not here, there will be no major problems.

After a few pleasantries, Lin Zheng immediately sat in the director's seat and began to check today's material.

The movie "Mr. Zombie 2" does not fully refer to a certain movie.

Instead, I chose to use the general plot of the movie "The Exorcist" as the skeleton.

Add some characters, settings, plots, and some brilliant places in the movie "One Eyebrow Taoist".

Two movies combined.

Take the essence of the bridge and discard some dross.

A new film reunited.

Because in these two movies, Western churches appear, and the final big bosses are also Western zombies.

Although the overall look is definitely not the same.

But in Lin Zheng's zombie universe structure, there will be repetitions.

Therefore, he could only endure the pain and combine the two films into one.

Of course, although the themes of the two films are relatively similar.

But the difference is still huge.

For example, in the church in The Exorcist, there is a priest.

Moreover, the church in this movie also had a lot of conflicts with Uncle Jiu's Dojo.

It does not completely support a certain party, nor does it completely suppress a certain party.

Instead, try to express as many concepts as possible.

Created many ironic plots.

In contrast, the church in "The Taoist with One Eyebrow" is a little less brilliant.

Inside is a group of nuns.

There wasn't much conflict with Uncle Jiu either.

Instead, he asked Uncle Jiu.

The biggest function of the entire church is basically to attract that foreign zombie.

In "Exorcism Daoist", China and the West are opposed and compete with each other.

It must be much more interesting than the story about the church in "The Taoist One Eyebrow".

Moreover, in "Exorcism Daoist", another Maoshan junior brother of Uncle Nine appeared, named Tulong Daoist.

But this Taoist priest is a villain, doing the business of using corpses to transport poison.

It was precisely because of these reasons that Lin Zheng decided to use "The Exorcist" as the skeleton.

However, in "The Taoist with One Eyebrow", there are also many elements that Lin Zheng values ​​very much.

For example, Captain Awei, played by Liang Chi, only had a role in "The Daoist with One Eyebrow".

For example, the very cute little zombie inside.

Although the little zombie in "One Eyebrowed Taoist" only appeared once in Lin Zhengying's movie.

But it left a deep impression in the hearts of many viewers.

There are even many people who have said on the Internet that they also want to raise one.

This is enough to prove that the shaping of this little zombie is very successful.

Such a role that can make the audience feel good.

Of course Lin Zheng wouldn't throw it away.

And here he happens to have a very suitable actor.

That is, No. 007, who had defected to them not long ago, was strange.

Although No. 007 is a red-clothed dog, it is quite cute just by looking at its appearance.

Of course, when shooting No. 007, he had to use the paper-making technique to prepare a set of zombie clothes for No. 007.

Otherwise, let it appear on camera in its own image.

The frank Jill is likely to make some parents who gave birth to daughters complain about the movie.

Whether it was the previous life or the present life, Lin Zheng told him everything he saw and heard.

Some parents are determined not to be provoked.

Therefore, this emergency avoidance must be done.

In addition, Lin Zheng also plans to borrow the movie "Mr. Zombie 2" to introduce the role of "Partridge Aunt".

The role of "Aunt Partridge" comes from the movie "Mr. New Zombie".

Played by Lin Junru, she is the junior sister of Uncle Nine.

She is madly in love with Uncle Jiu, and will do anything to get Uncle Jiu.

Lin Zheng planned to ask Aunt Partridge to send the little zombies, as well as the spirit babies and magic babies in the movie "Mr. New Zombie" at the beginning of the movie.

Because Aunt Zhe had to leave for a period of time because she had something to do, she couldn't take care of her dojo.

Therefore, it is natural to temporarily deposit these very important things in the hands of the most trusted brother, Uncle Jiu.

At the same time, this is also an opportunity to get close to Uncle Jiu.

The logic is very reasonable and very plausible.

This can also explain why there are no small zombies in the first part of "Mr. Zombie".

As for the actor of Aunt Zhe, Lin Zheng planned to hand it over to Zhou Xinyi.

Zhou Xinyi naturally had no objections.

After all, Lin Zheng hasn't written the script of "Mr. New Zombie" yet.

She also didn't know what fate would be like after her role.

Of course, it was impossible for Lin Zheng, he was really too spoofing Zhou Xinyi.

After all, Zhou Xinyi is not Lin Junru, but a beautiful woman.

Therefore, when the script comes out, the spoof part will definitely be limited.

In order to make up for it, some ambiguous parts should be added.

Although Lin Zheng was not very willing in his heart, but for the film's box office results, for the audience's experience, and for the art, he could only dedicate himself.

At the same time, there are many similar changes.

For example, in "Exorcism Daoist", Uncle Jiu's apprentices are not Wencai and Qiusheng.

Instead, he became Chang Wei and a girl.

Of course Lin Zheng wanted to rectify Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai's names.

For example, at the end of "The Exorcist", when dealing with zombie + vampire hybrids.

It is the divine magic of the priest of the church, which works together with the Taoism of Uncle Jiu.

But in Blue Star, those things in the church are useless at all.

So in the end, I can only rely on Uncle Jiu to solve all problems.

At the same time, Blue Star doesn't have any vampires.

Therefore, the Western Zombie inside is just a zombie, but he has a "bat demon" who has cultivated into a demon as a friend.

Both the building officials and Lin Zheng wanted to make the Zombie Universe series movies popular and well-received, and at the same time, they had to function as "strange textbooks".

Therefore, any changes that should be made must be changed.

But Lin Zheng also tried his best to preserve the essence of the original movie.

And strive to make the whole viewing experience even better.

After checking, Lin Zheng was quite satisfied with this morning's material.

Then, everyone started shooting in the afternoon.

……

By the evening, the shooting had come to an end.

Next, I had dinner and took a rest, and then rushed to another studio to shoot another movie.

Lin Zheng was sitting in the director's seat, while checking the material shot this afternoon, while eating the food in his hand.

Although it is a box lunch, the combination of meat and vegetables is very well-organized, and the color, fragrance and taste are also complete.

Compared to before when Lin Zheng was a mediocre director, he didn't know how much better it was.

But at this moment, Lin Zheng's food was a bit dull.

Because he was thinking about a very important question.

That's the question about the movie "The Grudge"!

That's right, the mysterious movie that Mr. Chen and Liang Chi were very interested in.

Of course it is "The Grudge".

This movie is just too scary, the scenes where it was shot and the whole vibe are pretty grim.

As for those in the movie, the extras who were killed by Kayako and her children.

Since we have to face the weirdness directly, of course we can't find ordinary people to act.

This heavy responsibility can only fall on the shoulders of Li Changsheng and the others.

Therefore, this movie is so mysterious.

After all, ordinary people are likely to be scared when they see it.

But Lin Zheng's current problem does not lie in the filming of this movie.

After all, he has two real ghosts as actors.

The effect of shooting will definitely be more exciting and scary than the original version.

Yang Xiaohua and No. 007 are weird about things that couldn't be done with the special effects back then, so they can make them casually.

And after all, there is a specialization in the art industry, and ghosts are specialized in scaring people.

In this regard, these two red clothes will surely provide Lin Zheng with a lot of constructive suggestions.

It is absolutely impossible for Lin Zheng's version of "The Grudge" to be bad, and there will be absolutely no difficulties in filming.

But after the filming is completed, the distribution of the film is a big problem.

Just like the discussion between Teacher Chen and Liang Chi before Lin Zheng came over at noon.

If the movie "The Grudge" is really released, it will definitely have a great impact.

First of all, the box office of the movie will definitely not be good.

Word of mouth will definitely be very bad.

After all, this is Blue Star, and the garbage ghost movie of Eternal Pictures has been scolded like that.

Not to mention ghost movies of the level of "The Grudge".

Once it is released, even if it can achieve the effect that Lin Zheng expected, it will successfully retaliate to the island country.

But that comes with side effects.

For example, Lin Zheng's reputation as a director and the love of the audience.

As well as the impact on the box office and word-of-mouth of the follow-up movies of the zombie series.

They all existed, and Lin Zheng didn't want to bear them.

Teacher Chen and Liang Chi could think of these questions, and Lin Zheng could naturally think of them too.

And the only way to reduce these side effects.

That is... to prevent those who support Lin Zheng in Daxia from seeing this movie.

Let people from abroad, preferably islanders, watch it!

After all, Lin is shooting this movie, and Lin is doing it for revenge on the island nation, not for revenge on Daxia's audience.

Since there is a target for revenge, it is naturally best to do it in one step.

Therefore, the best way to deal with it is naturally to distribute it abroad, or even distribute it to island countries at designated locations.

Don't go online in the country, and stabilize Lin Zhengxia's domestic basic market.

After learning about Lin Zheng's filming plan for this movie, Daxia officials also had the same meaning.

But the problem is that the current international distribution is completely controlled by Eternal Business.

Even if Daxia officials tried their best, they were still being hanged and beaten by the other party.

There is no way to distribute it at all.

So, even if the filming of "The Grudge" went smoothly.

But these problems in the release still gave Lin Zheng a headache!
　5000 two hundred words!

　　I played pretty well today, I still have four chapters in arrears, wait for me to pay back slowly!
