China Entertainment Times 1999

Chapter 231 Lin Xuan: You can’t get married with someone named Ma! (Please subscribe!)

After the filming of "Xiu Chun Knife" was completed, Lin Xuan and the cast and crew spent two days playing in the grassland.

Riding horses and grazing every day, I felt free and relaxed physically and mentally.

Two days later, the crew returned to Beijing by plane.

The next morning, Lin Xuan came to the studio with the film.

After several rounds of expansion, the studio's business has become wider and wider, and it has also recruited many talents in the industry.

In addition to artist management, formal film and television companies should have business, and Lin Xuan Studio now has it, including post-production.

When arriving at the company, Lin Xuan first listened to the work reports of various departments.

He often goes out for filming and rarely comes to the company. Everyone in the company interacts with his work assistant Qian Ze.

After the report, Lin Xuan called the post-production team to the editing room.

"Your next job is to do the post-production of the film."

The curtains were closed, and the projector was playing a rough cut of "Xiu Chun Dao".

Several people later watched it with gusto, whispering from time to time.

"Wow, this martial arts action is so cool."

"The actors are all very good at acting."

"The actress is so beautiful."

"The role played by the boss is so cool."

Several people were completely attracted by the plot of the movie. Lin Xuan was very happy, but he still knocked on the table to interrupt them.

“Hey, hey, I didn’t invite you to watch a movie.

I heard that the movie has been rough cut, and your task is as follows..."

He told the team about his later ideas for the film.

The overall tone of "Xiu Chun Knife" is dark, which I already noticed when filming.

In terms of martial arts, it belongs to the fast-cut style. Except for a few slow movements, the whole style is required to be clean and neat.

Even though he just said it was useless, Lin Xuan actually cut a piece of it himself and gave it to them as a sample.

"You see, I want this effect."

Several post-stage workers nodded silently and then looked at each other.

Lin Xuan has the reputation of "all-round genius" in the circle.

From directing, screenwriting, acting, martial arts, art, modeling, to all aspects of film and television production, he knows a little bit of "100 million".

They didn't expect that Lin Xuan could even do post-production. Seeing how skillfully he operated, it was obvious that he was proficient in this.

One of the later stages scratched his head and asked curiously: "Boss, since you know everything, why do you still want to recruit us?"

Lin Xuan operated skillfully and said with a smile: "Just because you know everything doesn't mean you have to do everything yourself.

The birth of a movie requires a team of at least hundreds of people. If you leave all this work to me, you want to exhaust me to death. "

"So that's it, I understand."

Post-production is very boring and time-consuming.

Looking at a screen all day long is very harmful to your eyes.

Lin Xuan doesn't have masochism. He has the time to drink tea at home and flirt with girls.

Just tell them your ideas and wait for final acceptance.

Moreover, "Xiu Chun Knife" was all shot in real life, and it is not a special effects blockbuster. It is quite easy to do post-production.

…………

After leaving the company building, Lin Xuan got into the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz and went straight to a recording studio in the city center.

"Golden Pink Family" has entered the post-production stage.

The opening and ending songs have been prepared, composed by musician Sambo.

His songs are atmospheric, deep and beautiful, which are very suitable for this kind of tragic drama.

The theme song "Secret Fragrance" was sung by Lin Xuan and the ending song "Let Her Land". The crew originally wanted to save money and find a cost-effective singer.

The original singer is named He Lu. She graduated from the Vocal Music Department of the Conservatory of Music and won the silver medal in the amateur group of the Young Singer Competition.

But this proposal was rejected by Lin Xuan.

The crew still has a lot of budget left, so instead of returning the money to the investors, it is better to hire a popular singer, and we are not short of that.

After listening to the demos of the two songs, Lin Xuan asked the studio to contact Wang Fei and invite her to come and record the song.

This kind of ethereal, graceful and somewhat sad song is perfect for her to perform.

After listening to the demo, the princess liked the song very much, so she readily agreed.

After negotiating the price, she took the time to go to the recording studio and recorded the song in only half a day.

Unfortunately, Lin Xuan was filming in Hengdian at that time and did not see the music queen.

It's a pity, he really wanted to have some contact with her.

Open your voice, audition, adjust...

After two hours of preparation in the recording studio, Lin Xuan finally started recording songs.

"When the petals leave the flower...the subtle fragrance remains..."

"The fragrance disappears after the wind and rain... no one comes to smell it..."

"If love tells me to go on...I will fight until the end of love..."

"If the heart dies in splendor...love will be reborn from the ashes..."

"I will never forget the lingering whispers... use your smile to commemorate me..."

The song is sometimes low and whispering, sometimes high-pitched and roaring.

With his melancholic and unique voice, Lin Xuan vividly interprets the classical charm immersed in the music and conveys the emotional charm in the work very well.

After recording the song, several producers stood up and applauded.

They receive more than a dozen singers or musicians every day.

These people know the quality of a song.

There is no doubt that "Secret Fragrance" is an excellent song, and Lin Xuan's performance is also perfect.

Original Time and Space, this song also won the 4th Chinese Music Media Award and the Top Ten Chinese Songs Award.

After recording the song, Lin Xuan treated them to a meal and returned to the courtyard in the evening.

…………

In the next few days, he basically stayed at home to rest.

It's too energy-consuming to join the team for filming, not to mention that he is also the director this time, so he must take a few days off to rest.

Wang Jinhua had no choice but to grant him a week's leave.

During this rare vacation, Lin Xuan did not go out for travel. He just stayed in the courtyard, reading, drinking tea, and catching up with old friends.

That afternoon, he sat in the yard chatting with Wang Baoqiang.

"Why do you have time to come to my place? Have you finished filming "The Blind Shaft"?"

Lin Xuan was lying on a wicker chair, eating watermelon and drinking cold drinks, feeling very uncomfortable.

"Not yet. Director Li Yang is very strict and the filming progress is not very fast.

It’s just that I didn’t have many scenes, and I came back right after filming. "

Literary films are different from commercial films. The shooting speed of literary films is much slower.

Some directors can work on a ninety-minute movie for several months, or even half a year.

Don't mention the King of Sunglasses, this guy has jumped out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements.

When he makes movies, the time unit is years.

"Slow down, just slow down. I asked the finance department and the budget is sufficient."

There are two versions of "The Blind Shaft" to be shot, and the details of each version are different, which will definitely take time.

"What insights have you gained during this period? Do you feel that making movies is different from making TV series?"

Wang Baoqiang nodded seriously: "Brother Xuan, it's really different. Making a movie is so torturous.

When filming a TV series, we can just shoot a few scenes, but Director Li Yang has to shoot them over and over again, which drives us crazy.

In order to capture the dirty feeling of the miners, the director asked all the actors not to wash their hair or take a shower. Their bodies were smelly and sticky every day during filming. "

"Haha..." Lin Xuan smiled: "Is there more?"

"Yes! It's really dangerous for us to film this scene.

Once, when filming a scene about going down a well, the coal cave collapsed as soon as the crew came up from filming, which shocked everyone. "

Lin Xuan has also heard people report this matter.

The crew filmed the scene going down the mine in a small coal mine, and the conditions were very difficult and dangerous.

The small coal tunnel underground did not have any pillars. Within two hours of taking the photo, the coal tunnel collapsed.

If they had been any more lazy while filming, this group of people would have been dead.

This incident caused several staff members to run away in fear.

For this reason, the crew stopped working for a week to do psychological training for the remaining people, and only restarted when the staff was fully staffed.

"Hey, I read Director Li's original script, and you still have a scene with all the consequences."

Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows at him, with a strange smile on his face.

"Brother... all I shoot are serious scenes."

Wang Baoqiang was a little embarrassed and his face turned red. "I know it's a serious drama. Tell me, what's it like to film a fruit drama? I've never experienced it."

"..." Wang Baoqiang struggled for a long time and said, "It's uncomfortable!"

"It's uncomfortable! Why should you feel uncomfortable after such a good thing?" Lin Xuan looked puzzled.

"It's so uncomfortable to hold back..."

"Hahahahaha..."

Lin Xuan laughed so hard that he slapped his thigh. This answer was so insightful!

He had seen the uncut version of "The Blind Shaft". The actress was pretty, had a decent figure, and her skin was white and pink.

Wang Baoqiang is also a young man. It is normal for him to be unable to control himself when meeting such a woman.

"Brother, stop laughing."

Wang Baoqiang's face turned red to his neck after being laughed at by him.

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. But you're not young anymore, it's time to find a girlfriend.

You have filmed a lot of movies in the past few years. Do you have a favorite actress? "

Upon hearing this, Wang Baoqiang's expression froze and he lowered his head and said nothing.

There are so many beautiful actresses in the industry, of course he likes some of them.

But when they choose a boyfriend, they either choose someone handsome or handsome, or someone with background and money.

Wang Baoqiang doesn't want either, so only a fool would be willing to follow him.

Looking at him like this, he must have been emotionally hurt.

Lin Xuan patted his shoulder and comforted:

"Don't worry! You will definitely become famous after this movie is aired. Then there will be actresses who will take the initiative to pursue you."

"really?"

Wang Baoqiang raised his head and looked at him expectantly.

"When have I ever lied to you?"

"Thank you, Brother Xuan."

Wang Baoqiang smiled and showed his white teeth, and he was already imagining the scene after turning red in his mind.

"But actresses in the industry are more realistic, so it doesn't matter if you just fall in love casually.

If you want to settle down, get married and have children, it is more reliable to find someone outside the circle.

The most important thing is that no matter who you look for, don't look for someone named Ma. "

"Why can't we find someone named Ma?"

why?

I'm afraid you have green grassland on your head.

"I calculated your marriage fate, and you are not in harmony with the man named Ma."

There was no way to explain this kind of opening of the clairvoyance, so he could only look to metaphysics.

"Brother Xuan, can you tell fortunes?"

Wang Baoqiang was shocked!

"Of course I will, otherwise how could I make one movie and become famous."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Baoqiang looked at him differently.

People in the entertainment industry originally believed this, and the incense money they donated to the temple every year amounted to millions.

What's more, at the beginning of the millennium, the level of education among the people was low, and many people believed in metaphysics.

This has led to various scams and qigong masters emerging one after another to make money crazily.

What's even more hateful is that there are still people taking advantage of Lin Xuan's traffic.

He told his fortune from the air, telling him how good his face was and how his birth date was so good that he could be popular.

Many people believe such nonsense.

"Brother Xuan, you are so awesome!"

Wang Baoqiang gave a thumbs up in admiration.

"Then when I find a girlfriend, I will bring her over to show you. If you say it's inappropriate, I will break up with her immediately."

"That's a good idea, let's do it."

After chatting for a while, the two strolled in the yard again.

The three courtyards combined cover an area of ​​nearly 3,000 square meters, and it took half an hour to wander around.

"Brother Xuan, your courtyard is so beautifully built, it looks like a palace."

"It's not such an exaggeration. If you like it, you can buy one yourself when you make money."

"I don't want to be so old. When I make money later, I will first build a house for my parents in my hometown."

"Yes, yes, filial piety."

In the evening, Lin Xuan stayed with him for dinner.

Suddenly I heard the sound of a car engine coming from outside.

"Brother, who is here?"

"you guess?"

"I guess it's Sister Fan."

"I guess it's Yuanyuan."

With the sound of high heels clicking, a figure appeared around the corner.

Fan Xiaopang walked into the courtyard carrying a satchel and wearing a skirt.

"I got it right!"

"Oh, I guess you were fooled."

Lin Xuan took out his cell phone and secretly sent a text message.

"Keep strong!"

Fan Xiaopang looked surprised when he saw him.

"Hello, Sister Fan."

Wang Baoqiang stood up to say hello.

"Long time no see. What have you been busy with lately?"

"I just came back from filming a movie."

"It's amazing, it's even been made into a movie."

"I have no ability, Brother Xuan takes care of me."

Fan Xiaopang smiled and turned to glare at Lin Xuan.

When you have good things, you only think about your brothers, not me!

"Don't glare at me. It's an art film, and there's no role suitable for you."

Fan Xiaopang snorted, noncommittal.

The three of them came to the restaurant and sat down, and the chef started serving food.

Lin Xuan opened a bottle of liquor, and Fan Xiaopang also poured a glass.

"Bao Qiang has matured a lot. When he was on the set of "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", he looked almost like a junior high school student."

"He is young and has a tender face. He really acts like a junior high school student now."

"Indeed, you are two years older than him, and you look much more mature."

"You mean I look old?"

"Hehe, you said this yourself, it has nothing to do with me."

"I remember when we first met, someone didn't act well and he was so anxious that he almost cried."

"You must have remembered it wrong!"

"Well, I still remember someone slipped a small note to me and asked me to call her. I must have remembered this correctly. I still have the evidence."

"Eat yours!"

Fan Xiaopang blushed with embarrassment, picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

Lin Xuan sighed while chewing: "Baoqiang, when we slept in the basement together, could you have imagined that I would be where I am today?"

Wang Baoqiang nodded: "I can imagine it."

"Liar."

"I'm not lying. Brother Xuan is handsome and has good acting skills. I had already guessed that you would be famous, but I didn't expect that you would be so popular."

Lin Xuan smiled and looked at Fan Xiaopang again: "What about you? Tell the truth."

The little fat man smiled guiltily, shook his head and said, "I can't even think of it."

"Then your vision is really bad, you might as well stay strong."

"There are so many handsome guys in the industry. Whether you are popular or not doesn't depend on your face, it depends on your fate."

Fan Xiaopang explained: "And the first time we met, I left you my contact information to prove that my vision is not bad at all."

Lin Xuan was happy: "Look, she admitted to passing the little note to me."

Fan Xiaopang became angry: "Ah! Go to hell!"

After dinner, the three of them went to the living room to chat for a while.

When the sky turned completely dark, Wang Baoqiang stood up to say goodbye, and Lin Xuan asked the driver to send him back.
