Stop it, boss, I’ve never seen a movie made like this.

Chapter 245 245. Ready

"Oh my god, are you reading that right? The music king Feng Yao is going to cross over?"

"I'll go, no, why is the boss not doing his job properly? Can we write songs and make movies?"

"Old Feng, what are you thinking about? We are good at writing songs, but we are not necessarily good at filming."

"Hehehe, I like both of them. This time we join forces, the movie will be even more interesting in the future."

"Double chef ecstasy! Hahaha. It's so fun."

"It seems that Chen Li is so awesome that he can even recruit Feng Yao, haha. Could it be that he has some leverage?"

"Rumors say that Lao Feng joined Chenli Company in order to be in a movie. He really has a movie dream."

"."

Discussions continued on the Internet, and several photos of Feng Yao negotiating at Chenli Company leaked out, surprising many people.

Because of Feng Yao's popularity, this matter directly hit the hot search list on the Internet.

Especially in the Hollywood film industry, many top directors and producers who had rejected him before were stunned. They originally thought that this guy had given up, but he didn't expect that he was still working hard to get closer to the film industry?

Everyone couldn't laugh or cry, but they were still curious about how Chen Li would appear in the end.

On the other side, with the assistance of the Film Association, Chen Li was preparing to start setting up the scene. Since most of the scenes and shots in the movie involve post-production CG, they could only shoot in a studio.

To this end, Chen Li directly used more than 100 top studios with a total area of ​​ million square meters, equivalent to more than football fields.

After that, the huge props group and art group entered the scene, and began to build the scene day and night, which mainly included a complex and life-like underground city, surrounding a fallen tree, with a bookstore, snack bar, dragon dance, colorful Lights and other scenes.

There are also high-tech space stations full of precision instruments and equipment, as well as heavy industrial-style internal structures of fusion engines, etc.

At the same time, more than 3 engraving machines, D printers and other equipment are used to work hard to build important scenes as soon as possible so that the actors can be better immersed in them.

Taking advantage of the early preparation stage, Chen Li also started a few days of auditions.

Because the company's artists all have movie projects in progress, they can only star in staggered times. In addition to Cao Hong playing Liu Peiqiang, Mr. Han Ziang was invited by Chen Li and was played by Zhang An. Even though Mr. Zhang An is a director, he was also a young man. Of course, it goes without saying that a person who has won the Cannes Best Actor Award has great acting skills.

In order to show his support for Chen Li, he agreed without reservation.

In addition, Liu Qi, Han Duoduo, Li Yiyi and other new-generation actors were all used in the first film. This was also led by director Zhang An, and an initial cooperation was reached with the Beijing Film Academy to recruit thousands of qualified students across the school. After auditions and screening, three senior acting students were finally selected.

Then came the role in the second film. Originally, Chen Li planned to shoot the two films separately, but then he thought about it and realized that the scenes were all set up, so he might as well shoot it all in one go. Anyway, he had no shortage of investment and time!

Therefore, the role in the second movie has become the target of competition for all actors in the entertainment industry.

In the second part, Han Duoduo is played by Liu Wanxin, Hao Xiaoxi is guest-starred by Ning Chuqing, Tu Hengyu is played by Bay Island actor Xu Yang, who has won the Pegasus Award for Best Actor, and Zhou Zhezhi is played by Wei Hantian.

As for the music king Feng Yao, considering that the other party wanted to create two movie soundtracks, Chen Li arranged for him to play the supporting role of He Lianke. On the other hand, he also served as the voice of the artificial intelligence Moss.

After the actors were finalized, Chen Li held his first script reading meeting.

After all, this is a hard science fiction movie, and Chen Li was worried that these guys wouldn't understand it.

When all the important actors arrived in the conference room, it was almost full. Actors who had worked with him several times greeted each other, while actors who were participating in Chen Li's film for the first time seemed very excited, and their faces turned red with excitement.

"You must have read the script, right?" Chen Li walked to the front of the conference room and said with a smile.

Everyone below laughed. “I’ve read it, Director Chen, it’s so well written.”

"Yeah, it's wonderful."

"A script of 100,000 words is the most I have ever seen in this industry."

Chen Li smiled: "That's just a script, which actors must study. Of course, I also hope that everyone can understand the worldview behind the movie, which will help you understand the motivations of the characters and the reasons for the plot twists."

Everyone raised their heads curiously. This 100,000-word script is already detailed enough. Does it need other worldviews to supplement it?

At this time, Xu Wei stepped forward, holding a thick book in her arms, and placed it directly on the table. The thickness shocked everyone.

Both scripts combined are not that thick.

"These 300,000 words are the world view and detailed settings jointly written by the National Academy of Sciences and more than 40 experts in various fields. You can take a look."

Everyone gasped and were stunned.

A script of 100,000 words and a set of 300,000 words? ?

This damn thing is too hardcore! ?

This gives people the illusion that they are not just acting, but are actually implementing the Wandering Earth Plan.

Because of the huge amount of information, the study session lasted for a week before it was completed, but all the actors were tortured.

At this point, one-third of the preparatory work for the entire crew has been completed, and the Film Association, with the authorization of Chen Li, has also begun to invite the media to prepare for the film conference of "The Wandering Earth".

It was already mid-August, and the popularity of "The Night the Comet Came" had already subsided. Rumors about Chen Lixin's hard-core science fiction movie were circulating on the Internet, but due to confidentiality regulations, everyone could only speculate.

But there is no doubt that everyone knows that this will be an expensive attempt.

On August 8, Chen Li held a film press conference in the hotel auditorium.

There were nearly a hundred invited reporters and media units. As soon as they entered the door, they could see a huge banner with the four characters "The Wandering Earth" hanging on the stage, which was extremely mysterious.

Moreover, the names of several heavyweights from the National Academy of Sciences were written on the seats on the stage, adding a touch of rigor to the press conference.

The reporters quickly set up cameras at the scene and started the live broadcast, while curious netizens had been waiting for a long time.

Especially when the press conference started, Chen Li led a group of people onto the stage from the side door. The flash lights on the scene became a blur, and the entire live broadcast room was boiling.

"Director Chen is here, stand up quickly!!"

"Let me go, what's going on? Except for Chen Li who is full of energy, why are all the leading actors in the back so weak?"

"Hahaha, it looks like you have been tortured for several days. What happened?"

"Don't think about it, this movie must be extremely difficult. Otherwise, all the people present are veteran actors. I have never seen any scenes before. How could it be like this?"
