Chief Player of Film and Television World

"OK, today's shooting ended successfully! Thank you for your hard work, everyone!"

As the director called to stop, everyone on the shooting scene breathed a sigh of relief and cheered to celebrate!

"Good job director!"

"Teacher Charlotte, you are the one who worked hard. You were running during the whole filming. I felt very tired just watching it on the monitor."

"Hey, it's nothing, it's all work, and I'm having fun too."

"Then you have a good rest. Tomorrow we will move to a new filming location to continue filming the next episode."

"Don't worry, director, I will get up on time. If I can't get up, my assistant will carry me on the plane. I will definitely not delay everyone's schedule."

"Haha, Teacher Charlotte is so funny!"

After exchanging a few casual greetings with the director, Charlotte wiped the sweat from her head with a towel and turned her head to look around.

"What are you looking at, brother? I brought you a water cup. It's still warm." Zhang Yang smiled and handed over a thermos cup.

Charlotte took the water glass and asked while drinking: "Have you seen Ma Dongmei? She was chasing me in a big circle just now, but why did she disappear in the blink of an eye?"

"Oh, I just saw Dongmei and Brother Hu walking over there talking and laughing." Zhang Yang thought for a while and replied.

Charlotte was stunned for a moment: "She and Brother Hu just met today. Are they so familiar? Are they still talking and laughing?"

"I know about this. When I chatted with Brother Hu's assistant before, I learned that he likes sports and occasionally plays tennis. I guess he was talking to Dongmei about this matter." Zhang Yang took out an orange from his backpack.

Handed it over, "Brother, eat an orange to replenish vitamin C."

Charlotte thought to herself, wouldn't it be possible to talk about feelings on the pretext of playing basketball to get to know each other better? This guy has quite a way. No, I have to go and take a look.

"Brother, eat an orange!" Zhang Yang asked again when he saw that he didn't respond.

Charlotte took the orange in his hand casually, weighed it and tossed it in his hand, then put it in his mouth and took a bite.

嗗——

The light yellow juice suddenly splashed all over his face and chest!

"..." Charlotte was confused, what happened?

"..." Zhang Yang was confused. Is there anyone who eats oranges without peeling them?

On the other side, Ma Dongmei and Hu Ge are taking promotional photos.

Charlotte and Zhang Yang walked over from the side.

"Hey, are you taking pictures? Why are you taking pictures of the two of them alone?"

"Teacher Charlotte." The photographer greeted him and said, "It's like this. The director wants to take a group photo of everyone. You came just in time, and the next one will be your turn with Teacher Ma Dongmei."

"Oh!" Charlotte suddenly understood.

He watched for a while and found that Ma Dongmei and Brother Hu were indeed taking a photo together, and there was nothing particularly egregious behavior.

After a while, several other program guests came to the photography area one after another.

What they were filming this time was a variety show. It was Zhang Jin who first proposed the idea, which inspired Xia Luo's creative inspiration, and thus the country's first celebrity reality show - Run, Brother.

Charlotte insisted on choosing this name, saying it was more down-to-earth.

Zhang Jin didn't force it. Anyway, for him, the content of the program was greater than the name of the program. There was no difference whether it was Running Man or Fast Brother.

Just gather the stars, start the game, and let the audience experience happiness that is different from other variety shows.

The reason why Zhang Jin did this show was to create opportunities for Ma Dongmei to get in touch with Xia Luo. As regular guests, each episode of the show has different ways of contacting each other, either through cooperation or confrontation.

Apart from this main purpose, other things like making money, attracting traffic, advertising, and promoting new people are just incidental.

Although Charlotte has watched Running Man, he doesn’t remember the content clearly, so Zhang Jin handled all the game planning for the show by himself. With the help of the Memory Palace, he copied the entire process of the first season of Running Man.

Come down.

The Legend of the White Snake, looking for lovers in the past life, people in the awkward port, escaping from Xiushan Island, love across the centuries, the Dunhuang Robbery, the Battle for the Desert Princess, the Chu-Han War, the Three Schools Competition, New Year

Sports games, looking for a mysterious person, a secret partner, a super power battle, and a New Year special.

In order to make Ma Dongmei and Xia Luo become regular hosts, Zhang Jin deliberately chose to start recording the program at the end of September, so that Ma Dongmei could join the program crew after taking a short break after completing the Perfect Net Grand Slam.

In addition to the two of them, several other regular hosts with a sense of variety show were also invited from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the guests invited in each episode are different.

This episode of "Love Across the Century" invited Hu Ge, Liu Yifei and several other star actors. They were invited mainly to promote the movie Sword and Fairy.

The TV series Fairy Sword premiered in 2004 and became a hit, with good ratings and good reputation. The two leading actors received many filming invitations. In the next one or two years, they starred in "Dragon" and "Flying Fairies" respectively.

, "Young General Yang" and so on.

At the end of 2006, after two years of careful preparation, Zhang Jin's "Sword and Sword" movie entered the official shooting stage.

All actors from the TV series Fairy Sword return to star in the film, and the director is Mr. Xu. After filming "The Legend of Shushan" in 2001, Director Xu felt that there was still more to come. Although the special effects and pictures of the movie have made great progress, they are limited by

The length of the film led to various tearings in the plot, and the content of the story was unclear. It is not a good film, and can only be said to be passable at best.

This has also become a regret for him, as he is still a little immature when it comes to the distribution of special effects and plot.

In other words, according to the plot arrangement of The Legend of Shushan, if literary drama, martial arts, and special effects are all taken into account, it will not be possible for a simple movie to tell it clearly.

Therefore, when Zhang Jin approached Mr. Xu and expressed that he wanted him to direct the movie Sword and Sword, Mr. Xu was immediately attracted by his idea of ​​filming.

Movie series are nothing new. After all, making sequels is a recognized way to make money in the film industry.

The Fairy Sword movie will be divided into three parts: upper, middle and lower. The first part of the movie starts from the past of Nanzhao Kingdom and involves the Sword Master, the Witch Queen, the Witch King, the Moon Worshiping Leader, the Jiujianxian, Li Sansi and his wife, Lin Tiannan

, Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Ling'er, the story of grandma ends when Li Xiaoyao first goes to Fairy Island and meets Zhao Ling'er ten years later.

The second part of the movie follows the end of the first part. The plot begins with Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er leaving Xianling Island for Nanzhao Kingdom. It mainly tells the adventures of the two people along the way.

The third part of the movie is a high-C story about the final decisive battle with the Moon Worshiping Cult. The whole story revolves around the decisive battle in Nanzhao Kingdom. The ending this time will be different from that of the Fairy Sword TV series. It will feature Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er retreating to the immortal world after the decisive battle.

The HE ending of Spirit Island.

At that time, Mr. Xu had just finished filming the movie "Seven Swords". It took three years from preparation to shooting to editing. In the past three years, he had focused all his energy on this, and he planned to take a good rest after filming.

Year.

As a result, Zhang Jin came to the door to describe, especially the top-notch special effects team he promised, with an investment of more than 200 million, Old Monster Xu was immediately shaken.

After repeated lobbying, Mr. Xu was finally persuaded by Zhang Jin and agreed to take over the filming of the Sword and Sword movie.

In order to better study the art style, plot, and character-related information of the Fairy Sword series, Mr. Xu not only played the game and watched the Fairy Sword TV series, but also found the main creator Yao Xian through his connections for in-depth understanding and discussion.

In addition, he also learned about the appearance, acting skills, lines, etc. of each leading actor, and established a top martial arts team to provide special training to the leading actors.

Zhang Jin handed over the Sword and Sword movie to Mr. Xu, a choice he made after careful consideration. In his impression, apart from Mr. Xu, a master of martial arts movies, he really couldn’t find anyone else.

A director who is more suitable for making Xianxia movies.

Old Monster Xu has his own unique martial arts aesthetic, just like Wong Kar-wai has his own unique style of script lines, and Old Monster Xu’s use of special effects is better than most directors. It is not difficult to see from the Legend of Shushan that he has a strong interest in this genre.

The movie scenes are rich in imagination.

If Mr. Xu can’t even make a movie about Sword and Sword, then Zhang Jin feels that leaving it to someone else will only make it worse.

After more than a year of filming and post-production editing, the first part of the Sword and Sword movie will be released during the Spring Festival of 2008.

At this time, there was no such thing as a Spring Festival stall in the film industry, but more of a Lunar New Year stall with a lot of Lunar New Year films.

Therefore, Zhang Jin decided to create an industry milestone and contribute to his ultimate challenge.

Here, after taking a group photo, Charlotte looked at Ma Dongmei who was chatting about tennis with Brother Hu, and then found Liu Yifei who was about to call it a day and leave.

"I heard that you recently released an album of hair songs? I didn't expect you to be so versatile, both in acting and singing. You are truly a genius!"

Hearing his praise, Liu Yifei smiled modestly: "I just tried everything I wanted to do while I was young, and my singing skills were just average. I didn't sing as well as Teacher Xia, let alone your creative talent. In fact, I did too."

Your fans!”

"Really? Then we are each other's fans. It's so destined. Otherwise, let's sign each other's autographs."

"Okay, where is the signature?"

"I remember that the program crew has a Polaroid camera. Zhang Yang, go and pick up a Polaroid camera from the program crew. I'll take a photo with Tianxian, and I'll bring you a signature pen as well." Charlotte turned around and ordered.

"Okay, brother!" Zhang Yang turned around and went to find the program team.

Taking advantage of Zhang Yang's opportunity to borrow a Polaroid camera from the program crew, Xia Luo deliberately introduced the topic: "The Fairy Sword TV series you and Hu Ge starred in was very good. When it was on the air, I couldn't watch the whole thing due to work reasons.

Later, I asked the production company to provide video resources to complete it."

"Really! Teacher Xia also knows people from the product company?" Liu Yifei was a little surprised.

"Hi, Zhang Jin, the boss of the production company, is my classmate in high school. Well, Ma Dongmei, me, and Zhang Jin over there both came from the same high school, so we have a good relationship." Charlotte looked at Ma Dongmei and Brother Hu and asked inquiringly.

, "Hey, why don't you call them over and take a group photo together? I also want an autograph from Brother Hu."

"Okay!" Liu Yifei had no objection to this.

Xia Luo immediately called the two of them to come over and take a photo together, and Ma Dongmei and Brother Hu also came over.

When it came to asking for an autograph, Brother Hu smiled brightly and said: "Originally, I was thinking about how to ask for Teacher Xia's autograph and asked Sister Dongmei to help me. I didn't expect my wish to come true so quickly."

Ma Dongmei said to Charlotte: "Brother Hu is your fan, don't you feel very proud now?"

"Talented people will always appreciate each other. He is my fan, and I am also his fan. We are fans of each other and protect each other." Charlotte joked.

At this time, Zhang Yang, who had gone to borrow a Polaroid from the program crew, trotted back: "Brother, I borrowed the Polaroid and brought the signature pen."

"That's great. Come on, hurry up and take pictures. Don't keep the two big movie stars waiting." Charlotte greeted.

After a while, Zhang Yang took a lot of photos of the four of them with his Polaroid.

The four of them signed their names and blessings on the back of the photo with a signature pen, and exchanged mobile phone numbers with each other before saying goodbye.

After the Fairy Sword duo left, Charlotte stopped smiling, looked at Ma Dongmei who was holding a group photo with a smile on her face, and said: "Look at you looking like this, looking silly at a photo, when did you become a nymphomaniac?

Already?"

Ma Dongmei raised the autographed photo in her hand: "What, are you not happy to get their autographed photo?"

"I'm happy, but I won't show you such a crazy smile. People who don't know would think you have a crush on Brother Hu!"

"I have a crush on him?" Ma Dongmei was about to explain, but she suddenly realized, "Aren't you jealous?"

Charlotte retorted: "Why should I be jealous if there are no dumplings? Hahaha. Boring!"

"But your laughter sounds so embarrassing." Ma Dongmei curled up the corner of her mouth and snickered unabashedly.

"Are you embarrassed? What's wrong with my smile? Let me tell you Ma Dongmei, what's in a person's heart is what's in their eyes. If you think I'm embarrassed, that's because you feel embarrassed yourself." Charlotte finished speaking forcefully.

, turned around and left.

"Brother, wait for me!" Zhang Yang secretly gave Ma Dongmei a thumbs up, then shouted and chased after her.

Ma Dongmei looked at the two people leaving, the smile on her face and the smile in her heart getting stronger. She was right to listen to Zhang Jin and participate in this variety show this time!

She stepped forward and chased after him: "Hey, wait for me, I'll go back and take the program bus!"

After hearing the words behind him, Charlotte obviously speeded up her pace.

Three days later, in Dunhuang, northwest China, the recording of the eighth program of Run Brothers began. The theme of this program is "The Great Robbery of Dunhuang".

"The rules of this game are that everyone will play three different roles in the Dunhuang Robbery, namely the merchant team, the robber team and the special team. Everyone needs to complete the toe-board jump rope, retrieve small animals, and rescue visas.

The official has to wait for the mission before he can leave the city. Xiao Zuo will mix with the merchant team and help the robber team defeat the merchant team."

After the director announced the rules of the game, everyone began to draw their own identities. The guests belonged to the fixed robber team, and the resident host belonged to the fixed caravan team, and two members were selected as agents.

"Who, who is the trickster? Please take the initiative to stand up. Don't let me find out by then. You will be responsible for the consequences!" After drawing out his identity, Charlotte loudly and righteously expressed his position on the spot.

Ma Dongmei immediately broke up the trouble and said: "I think it's you, Charlotte. Your attitude and actions show that you have a guilty conscience, and you want to preempt others and divert our attention. And look at your face, do you look like a good person? You are absolutely

It’s meticulous work!”

This conversation immediately caused a burst of laughter in the audience.

After several episodes of the show, the two have developed some tacit understanding in variety shows.
