In the conference room, listening to Tan Yue explaining the script, all the screenwriters were taking notes carefully.
At the same time, I kept flipping through the script in my hand.
"If you have any opinions on this plot, you can tell me." Tan Yue picked up the cup and drank water, listening to other people's suggestions.
The screenwriters here are all experienced. Tan Yue's many revisions of the script were made by these people, so they naturally know what to do.
If there were any questions at the moment, I asked them directly.
"Mr. Tan, I think this place is..."
Tan Yue looked at everyone: "What are other people's opinions?"
"agree."
Tan Yue thought carefully for a moment and then approved the plan.
Tan Yue will agree to some reasonable points and reasonable suggestions as long as they don't have a particularly big impact on the movie.
"Then let's move on to the next episode."
Tan Yue continued to read the script, often stopping to listen to everyone's suggestions.
Another two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
"If there is no suggestion, we will shoot according to this." Seeing them nodding, Tan Yue said: "Okay, everyone, please go back first. Zhou Can, please stay here."
"Xiaoye, take these materials to my office."
"Okay, Mr. Tan."
The others left one by one, leaving only Tan Yue and Zhou Can in the conference room.
"Let me take a look at the records you made."
During this meeting, Zhou Can wrote densely for more than ten pages.
Tan Yue looked at Zhou Can's notes and asked, "What's your different understanding of the character?"
Zhou Can has also been studying the script these days, analyzing the deeper things in the character every day.
After this discussion, I gained a deeper understanding of the role.
"My previous understanding of Ah Xing's inner world was still a bit one-sided."
The two people chatted for a long time in the conference room.
The next day.
Bright Entertainment Company, President's Office.
Chen Ye walked out of the office with the documents in hand.
Tan Yue took out his cell phone, preparing to contact some people to cast for his role in the play. He first found Zhang Shengli's phone number.
"Mr. Tan." Zhang Shengli quickly answered the phone.
"Have you finished filming your latest movie?"
Although there are no Tan Yue movies, Zhang Shengli has accumulated a lot of fame through "Wolf Warrior 2".
The film department of Bright Entertainment Company has produced several films tailored for him.
"The filming just wrapped up a few days ago, what plans does Mr. Tan have?"
"I have a movie here that will be released in a while, and I have a character asking you if you want to appear in it."
"That's great."
"It's just a supporting role."
"no problem."
Zhang Shengli still didn't have any hesitation. No matter what the role was, as long as it was Mr. Tan's script, he would agree.
"Okay then, the script related to the role will be sent to you shortly."
After hanging up the phone, Tan Yue continued to find someone to contact, this time he called Liu Qian.
Tan Yue asked: "How was your rest?"
After "The King of Comedy" was completed, in order to have a better rest, Liu Qian took some time off from the company and traveled around the world.
"Get ready to return in two days."
"The script for the next movie has been released. Is the heroine interested?"
Liu Qian had never been in the company and didn't know about Tan Yue's new movie. When she heard that the script came out so soon, she didn't react for a while.
After a slight pause for a few seconds, he quickly said: "Mr. Tan, I'm going back to the company now."
Tan Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "There will still be some time before the filming of the movie starts. You should finish your plan first and read the script first."
"I've been out for so long, it's time to go back."
After a brief chat, we hung up the phone.
Tan Yue continued to search for his mobile phone number and contacted Zhou Yue and other artists who played important roles.
After some contact, I put down my phone. Several people had schedules, but they were all excited when they heard that Tan Yue had a role in the new movie.
Tan Yue's status in the entertainment director world can be said to have reached its peak.
Even if the older generation of well-known directors and Tan Yue send invitations at the same time.
They will still choose Tan Yue.
They have great confidence in Tan Yue's film.
Not long after, there was a knock on the office door.
"Please come in."
"Mr. Tan."
The person who came in was Zheng Tong, director of the film department.
When making the last call, Tan Yue informed Chen Ye to call him over.
Tan Yue personally selected the actors for the more important role in the movie, while other roles were always left to Zheng Tong.
This time Tan Yue plans to let Zheng Tong arrange other roles in the play.
This time was also Zheng Tong's happiest moment.
"sit."
Tan Yue went straight to the point: "Director Zheng, I have a task for you. It's about casting for a new movie."
Zheng Tong nodded seriously and took the script from Tan Yue.
"This movie is a martial arts action movie, and the requirements for actors are relatively high. You should take a good look at it when you go back. If you are not sure, please discuss it with me."
Basically, the characters appearing in the play will have some action scenes in them. Tan Yue first told Zheng Tong his request.
As for the type of movie, Zheng Tong will not be surprised now.
Even a nonsensical movie like "The King of Comedy" can achieve such high box office results when it appears in the public eye for the first time.
"OK."
"This is a story about Ah Xing." Tan Yue briefly introduced the plot to Zheng Tong.
"This document contains the role requirements. You should screen them carefully."
Hearing Tan Yue's reminder again, Zheng Tong knew the importance and nodded: "No problem, I guarantee to choose the most suitable actor."
Zheng Tong hurriedly came out of Tan Yue's office, returned to the film department, and asked his secretary to notify his subordinates who used to be responsible for finding actors to come to his office for a meeting.
Zheng Tong carefully read the biographies of each character.
Whether it is the protagonist, supporting role or other small roles, Tan Yue wrote a biography for them all.
At the same time, the six subordinates he called came to the office.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zheng Tongtong said: "Mr. Tan will start shooting a new movie. This time, your task is to choose supporting roles. The requirements for actors are high, so they must be screened carefully."
"What's the request?" a person asked.
"This movie is a martial arts action film, but for any role that has action scenes, you must find someone with good skills."
"The needs of each character will be given to you later. Just follow the selection above. Do you understand?"
"clear."
"If there is no problem, let's start now." Zheng Tong was ready to select a suitable candidate himself.
"I have something wrong." A thin, dark young man in his thirties suddenly said.
Zheng Tong raised his head and asked, "What's the problem? Cheng Tian."
"There are very few martial arts action movies in the entertainment industry now. It can be said that the martial arts market in recent years has been extremely small. Mr. Tan's new movie is a bit too big."
Cheng Tian had just moved over from another entertainment company, and he really didn't understand why Tan Yue wanted to make a martial arts action movie.
Several other people smiled.
If it were before, their thoughts would be the same as Cheng Tian's, but now they have full confidence in Tan Yue.
Zheng Tongdao: "You don't have to worry about this issue."
Cheng Tian nodded and was the last one to walk out of the office, but he still didn't quite understand why they had so much confidence in Tan Yue.
on Weibo.
Netizens still don’t know about Tan Yue’s new movie, and many fans left messages on Weibo asking about it.
"Teacher Tan, when will the filming of the next movie start?"
"I've spent all my time waiting. I hope Mr. Tan Yue can produce another movie with the same style as "The King of Comedy". This kind of movie is really more interesting the more you watch it."
"I come here every day to urge movies. No matter what type your next movie is, I will support it. Military, nonsensical, and other movies are also acceptable. I have to go to the cinema to support it."
"When will Teacher Tan Yue start filming a new movie? Can you reveal some news about the new movie then? The genre, launch time, and casting are all fine, but can't you reveal any news at all?"
"Don't rush, everyone. "The King of Comedy" has just been taken off the shelves. How can a new movie be launched so soon? Just wait."
With news like this, thousands of messages appear in Tan Yue's Weibo comment area every day.
Bright Entertainment Company.
When Tan Yue was free, he browsed Weibo on his computer.
Seeing so many fans leaving messages below, I decided to reply and also disclose it to the outside world.
Now that the filming of the "Kung Fu" movie is a certainty, there is no need to keep it secret.
"I have kept you waiting for a long time, because for some reasons, the direction of the new movie has not been determined.
After this period of preparation and careful consideration, the next part is a martial arts action movie.
Everyone has a martial arts dream in their hearts, and I am the same.
This time I hope to relive the feeling of watching movies with everyone.
The film will start shooting in the near future.
We will also speed up the filming progress while ensuring quality, and strive to meet fans as soon as possible. "
After sending this message, Tan Yue lay on the chair and looked out the window. He knew that this message would cause a big shock again.
Just as Tan Yue predicted, in less than a minute, there were already tens of thousands of comments in the message area.
"Holy shit, brothers and sisters, did I read that correctly? This is Teacher Tan Yue's officially certified Weibo? He has a new movie that will be released soon!"
"Surprises always come so suddenly. I saw this news before I was ready. I am not only excited but excited now."
"Hey, Mr. Tan's new movie will be about martial arts. I haven't seen this kind of movie in many years. I hope it won't overturn."
"Two words - looking forward to it. The action scenes in "Wolf Warrior 2" are good, and this martial arts action movie will definitely not be bad either. Come on, Mr. Tan, I will always support you."
"Are you going to transform again? To be honest, I'm not very optimistic about this type of movie. It's hard for today's directors to make the feel of martial arts action movies back then. Tan Yue's step is still too aggressive."
The discussion in Tan Yue's message area continues, and major media are also reporting on this matter.
""Southern Entertainment": Martial arts action movies have been on the decline, and now they have almost completely disappeared from the public eye. Tan Yue has a very high level of filmmaking. I wonder if he can bring martial arts action movies back to life?"
"Entertainment Express": According to recent news, Tan Yue's next film will be in the martial arts action genre. Martial arts action films are on the decline, and the market is very narrow. Judging from the current situation, it may be difficult for this film to continue to describe Tan Yue's film career. of brilliance.”
"Beijing Entertainment": Tan Yue has always been a miraculous existence. Many people thought that "Wolf Warrior 2" would not be successful, but the result was a box office hit! I wonder if Tan Yue can continue to create miracles this time! "
""Xinxing Entertainment": Tan Yue announced that the new film is a martial arts action movie and will be launched in the near future. Netizens: Martial arts is dead and it is difficult for the market to accept it."
Another week has passed in the blink of an eye.
Bright Entertainment Company, in Tan Yue's office.
Zheng Tong handed the list of supporting actors to Tan Yue: "Mr. Tan, this is the list. Please take a look."
This list took a lot of effort. The actors must have acting skills as well as certain martial arts skills.
However, because it was an invitation from Bright Entertainment, many people were very positive after hearing it.
In the past few years, Tan Yue has also gotten to know many real actors in the acting circle.
Tan Yue was also impressed by many of the names.
Zheng Tong, who seemed calm on the surface, was still a little nervous in his heart.
After all, the requirements for group performances this time are different from those in the past.
"No problem, just follow the list."
After hearing Tan Yue's words, Zheng Tong breathed a sigh of relief.
A few minutes later, Zheng Tong came out of the office in a happy mood and met Chen Ye. After the two nodded, Chen Ye came to Tan Yue's office.
"Mr. Tan, the hotel has been booked. It's at the mansion gate."
"good."
Before the filming of "Kung Fu" begins, Tan Yue prepares for everyone to have a meal together.
Every time before the filming of a new movie or TV series begins, Tan Yue will arrange for everyone to have a meal.
This dinner party was no exception.
This film uses a lot of new people, and it is essential for the actors to be familiar with each other.
Only when you are familiar with each other can you play the opposite role well and make the movie more comfortable to watch.
And dinner can speed up understanding between actors.
"You just happened to be here. These are the list of other actors. I will notify you when the time comes. Those who can come will try to come."
Tan Yue handed the list to Chen Ye.
"I'll make arrangements now."
Chen Ye took the list and left, and Tan Yue breathed a sigh of relief. The preparations before the filming of the movie were completed.
Two days later.
Dazhaimen Hotel.
There is a very large box on the third floor that can accommodate seventy or eighty people.
At this time, Tan Yue, Zhou Can and other main creative staff of "Kung Fu" were gathering here for dinner.
Almost all the actors were present, but a few couldn't spare the time.
"This movie requires everyone's joint efforts. Only in this way can we make a good movie." The box was relatively large, and Tan Yue couldn't help but raise his voice when he spoke: "It will be harder for everyone to shoot this kind of movie, and there will be more dangerous actions. Please pay attention to safety during filming.”
It was the first time for many people to see Tan Yue in person, and they were a little excited.
After drinking a glass of wine together, people gradually gathered in front of Tan Yue.
There are not many opportunities like this, even if it is a drink, I will go over and have a drink with Tan Yue.
This time it was a dinner party before the filming started. Everyone knew the purpose and were controlling their drinking.
After more than two hours, the dinner party ended.
After Tan Yue came out, he saw Chen Ziyu waiting at the door. She was more beautiful than the moon.
