Chapter 19 The crew wrapped up filming
In the evening, after Gu Wei and Zhang Tianai had dinner together, they returned to their hotel room.
The night is short. After a hard day, you should reward yourself and relax at night.
And with the beauty beside him, Gu Wei naturally didn't want to do anything.
Zhang Tianai was born in 1988 and is 24 years old this year. She is in the best stage of her life. Although she is not famous yet, she is still a little girlish at her age. She is still a little immature, but her royal sister temperament is gradually developing. Her skin is white and rosy, and she is in excellent condition, which makes Gu Wei love her.
Zhang Tianai could naturally feel Gu Wei's love for her. Although she was very tired, she was willing to cooperate.
After all, if a handsome guy who is far superior to you in every aspect shows that he likes you fanatically, anyone would be extremely happy.
Even if we put aside his status, the fact that Gu Weichang is so handsome and has such a good figure, a standard male god, is very attractive to her.
Moreover, Gu Wei was 20 years old, which was the most energetic stage for young people. Being together with her gave her a very different experience.
She never thought it would be so comfortable, but the next day she felt like she was falling apart and had to stay in bed for half a day.
In general, Zhang Tianai was extremely satisfied with Gu Wei's various hardware and software conditions. He even felt a little inferior deep down in his heart. He felt that his current life was rather unreal, and he was afraid that one day he would wake up and find that everything was just a dream.
So she obeyed Gu Wei's every command, and soon unlocked all kinds of knowledge that she had never heard of at Gu Wei's request.
Gu Wei was also very pleased with Zhang Tianai's obedience. In his spare time, he bought a set of costumes to enhance the fun.
"Honey, try this dress on."
As he spoke, Gu Wei handed over a set of clothes. The colors were bright and as light as gauze. It looked like an ancient costume.
Zhang Tianai was not confused. After all, this was a film and television base, and it was quite easy to get a set of costumes.
She took the clothes and Gu Wei whispered something in her ear.
After hearing this, her face turned red with shame
"Hate it, you're the only one who can do something weird, why do you come up with so many tricks?"
Although she said that, she still cooperated and changed her clothes.
The size of the clothes fit perfectly, and Gu Wei was aware of this.
After putting on his clothes, Zhang Tianai stood up and turned around.
The whole dress is bright red, with only white flowers decorating the chest. With hands raised, the wide cuffs are connected to the skirt, giving people a sense of grandeur and beauty.
This is a feeling of being a bright and beautiful beauty, different from a petite beauty.
"How is it? Does it look good?"
"My dear, it's beautiful."
Gu Wei was deeply impressed. The current look already had 90% of the charm of the "Crown Princess" in his mind. The only difference was that there was no professional stylist to do the hair.
"You have to trust my judgment. I think you can develop into a costume drama in the future. You will definitely become popular."
As he said that, Gu Wei reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Another fierce confrontation ensued. Though the enemy was well-equipped, the "Shen Lian" Hero Shen's "Embroidered Spring Blade" was no pushover. The long and mighty "Embroidered Spring Blade" wielded with it was a force to be reckoned with. With his superior martial arts and profound internal strength, Hero Shen ultimately triumphed over his foe, leaving her completely utterly defeated and her equipment scattered across the floor.
——
In mid-August, the crew finally finished filming the last scene and wrapped up the production.
This is the first movie Gu Wei has filmed since entering the industry. He never thought that he would be able to play the leading role in his first movie.
When he first entered school last year, he planned to play some supporting roles to gain experience before challenging himself to the leading role.
But when the opportunity comes, he must seize it.
Overall, Gu Wei is quite satisfied with his portrayal of the character in this film. He portrays Chen Lian with a more handsome and austere air. He may not have the depth of Zhang Zhen's original portrayal, but he also doesn't have the same bitterness and deep hatred as the original. The martial arts moves are also more exhilarating.
He felt that his version would be more popular after the movie was released.
After all, most audiences always put themselves into the characters when watching movies. If your protagonist is always depressed and abused, how can the audience like it?
So pretending to be cool and then getting slapped in the face will never go out of style. As long as the method is not old-fashioned, most of the audience will still enjoy watching it.
The original version of "The Blade of the Assassin" was filmed in June 2013. Due to funding constraints, it was completed in just 60 days. It was not because they did not want to continue filming, but because the crew ran out of money.
The film was released a year earlier than the original, with the same investment. Prices and labor costs were not that high, and Gu Wei only asked for 50,000 yuan in salary, which saved some money on the actors' salaries.
It doesn’t really matter whether he gets paid for making this movie or not, after all, it’s a movie he invested in himself.
Moreover, he is a pure newcomer now, without any fame, and he had to spend his own money to get the leading role, not to mention how much pay he would ask for.
As for converting his film remuneration into investment, it is unrealistic. Given his current fame, China Film Group will not agree.
I just took the 50,000 yuan as a gesture. The extra money I saved can be invested in the movie, making the film better.
The entire film took 78 days from start to wrap, 18 days longer than the original. This allowed for even greater attention to detail, leaving very few areas to fault.
Because the shooting time is long, more shots are taken, and the materials are richer, the effect of post-editing will be better.
The crew’s wrap-up party in the evening.
Gu Wei, the protagonist and investor, sat at the main table with Zhang Tianai beside him.
As a minor supporting role, it was impossible for her to sit at the main table. Normally speaking, she should have finished filming and left the crew long ago, and would not have had the opportunity to participate in the wrap-up party.
But the reason she was able to sit here was because she was Gu Wei's girlfriend, and everyone at the table knew this.
"Thanks to everyone's help, thanks to everyone's efforts, after more than 70 days of intense shooting, our film is finally completed.
Here, I would like to thank every member of the "Assassin's Blade" crew for their contributions. Without you, this excellent work would not have been created.
Thank you all! I toast to you all! "
Director Lu Yang was very excited. He stood up, raised his glass, and toasted everyone in the audience.
Everyone was also very excited and responded to the director.
Afterwards, people came and went at the table, and the atmosphere gradually became lively with glasses clinking.
"Gu Wei, I offer you a toast. I really want to thank you. Without you, there would be no such show as ours, and I don't know when my dream will be fulfilled.
Thank you for your trust and support. We are all family. If you have any problems in the future, just ask me. I will do it if I can, and I will find a way to do it if I can’t.”
After saying that, he raised his glass and drank it all.
"Brother, you are too polite. I also recognize your ability and talent. We are family, so let's not talk behind each other's backs. If you have any ideas in the future, please tell me, and I will definitely support you." He drank the wine.
"Come to think of it, I might actually need your help in the future."
"If you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to be polite between us."
"Brother, you know I've been learning how to make movies. If I ever have an idea to organize a group or make a movie, you have to come and help me out."
Lu Yang listened and said nonchalantly
"No problem, these are all trivial matters. When to shoot, what to shoot, just say the word, and I will definitely be there. Then give me the title of assistant director and I will teach you step by step."
"Thank you in advance, Senior Brother. I'll toast you one more."
Gu Wei was very happy to have gained an excellent tool.
Please recommend and collect, the author is still writing.
