When Guo Fan heard what Jiang Chen said, he smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, it's not that we don't want to shoot, the main reason is that we haven't finalized the script yet. In terms of funding..."
Yan Zhengqian has long been accustomed to Guo Fan's financial concerns.
He can understand.
It definitely costs a lot to make a film that is loved by people across the country.
"Don't worry, Director Guo, since the country allows you to make a promotional video, it will definitely support you financially."
Jiang Chen heard Guo Fan struggle softly: "It's a movie."
"Okay, our promotional video this time must expand its influence!"
"Director Guo and Academician Jiang, we have been given requirements from above. This film still needs to highlight the actions of human beings in times of crisis. We cannot take the route of personal heroism!"
"Of course, when developing new "props", I hope Academician Jiang will let go and do it. The country will be your backing!"
Guo Fan and Jiang Chen nodded repeatedly.
Yan Zhengqian smiled slightly and continued: "In order for the second film to continue the effect of the first film, Wu Gen is required to continue to star."
Wu Dan felt that the second part had nothing to do with him, so he just listened on the sidelines. He did not expect that Yan Zhengqian said that he must star in the second part.
"Sir Yan, my role has been sacrificed. It would not be good to come back from the dead."
Wu Pan thought that the other party had forgotten the story of his character, so he reminded him.
"I know, but Comrade Wu Gao, your performance has been well received and the Chinese people like you very much. For the sake of the publicity effect of the entire film, you will participate in everything."
Wu Pan never thought that his character could come back from the dead. His eyes widened wider and wider, and finally he asked Guo Fan: "Director Guo, my character has been wiped out. Is it possible that he will appear in the second part?"
When Guo Fan heard that Wu Quan had to participate in the second part, he was very happy.
"Of course you can, brother, you have to believe me! The higher-ups ask you to act, and I can add you in at any level."
With Guo Fan's sworn guarantee, Wu Gan couldn't say anything more.
"By the way, Director Guo, if you want to work with an actor in the second part, we can talk about it here."
Guo Fan's eyes lit up when he heard Yan Zhengqian say this.
"Sir Yan, do you mean we can choose actors?" When filming the first part of The Wandering Planet, let alone choosing actors, Guo Fan felt good if there were actors present.
When we were negotiating for actors, they either disliked the low pay or felt that there was no future in making science fiction movies.
Unexpectedly, now I can actively choose actors!
Guo Fan immediately forgot his worries and said, "Okay, let's think about it here!"
Yan Zhengqian was extremely satisfied, nodded and said: "There is only one requirement above, and that is to surpass the first one!"
Under Yan Zhengqian's earnest gaze, Guo Fan could only bite the bullet and agreed.
Considering that everyone had not had a good rest in the past few days, Yan Zhengqian took the crew to the most luxurious hotel in the capital and booked two floors.
When allocating rooms, Yan Zhengqian specially arranged Jiang Chen into the presidential luxury suite.
Jiang Chen had never stayed in a luxury suite in a hotel. When he heard that he had been arranged to move in, he felt a little happy, but after thinking about it, he calmed down.
The success of making a movie is not only due to one's own merits, but also due to the busy work of Guo Fan and Wu Gan.
In other words, without Guo Fan and Wu Gan, Wandering Planet might not have been able to be filmed on its own.
Although the room was arranged by Yan Zhengqian, he couldn't really go in and live there alone.
It's not that he's afraid of what others will say, but he really feels that it's not easy for Guo Fan and Wu Gan.
At that moment, Jiang Chen pulled Guo Fan and Wu Gan to live in the suite with him on the grounds that it would be too wasteful to live in the suite alone.
There were only two King-size beds in the suite. Although one bed was enough to sleep the three of them, in order to avoid embarrassment, Yan Zhengqian asked the hotel to add an extra bed to the suite.
After Yan Zhengqian left, the three of them finally put on comfortable and loose clothes and sat together.
As soon as he sat down, Guo Fan was not idle.
"Brother Jiang, Academician, now comes a difficult problem. The second part can be better than the first one. This is not easy."
"Originally, the content of the movie was recreated based on the original work. Now if we want to make a second part, we will undoubtedly need to rewrite a new story."
Jiang Chen recalled the second part of The Wandering Planet that he had watched, and it really didn’t have much to do with the original work.
He said: "It is indeed the case. Brother Men's character will return, so the timeline of the story may have to be pushed forward to realize it."
"Push forward? This is a good idea. Let me write this idea down first." Guo Fan's eyes lit up, thinking that they had found a reasonable entry point.
"Pushing the timeline forward? That wouldn't be appropriate. Look at my face. There are so many wrinkles on my face. How can I play a young man?"
"You won't let me get Botox, right? I won't touch that thing!" Wu Gan had a worried look on his face.
Guo Fan smiled and said: "Brother, are you kidding me? Why would you let me fight that thing?"
"We can try all five or six face-changing methods commonly used in the world. You don't have to worry about this."
"Mainly in terms of the script, we now need to set a general direction."
Jiang Chen thought to himself that he did remember part of the script, but writing it by himself would definitely arouse suspicion. He felt that the best way to deal with it was to bring up some ideas to remind everyone when they were discussing the script.
So he didn't say anything for a while.
"I don't think it's appropriate for us to discuss it here. We should invite the two screenwriters, Teacher Gong and Teacher Yan, to discuss it." Wu Gan leaned back on the sofa and said.
"Indeed, they probably haven't slept yet. I called them to get online and we started a video conference."
Jiang Chen looked at the time on the wall.
eight pm.
The two screenwriting teachers must not have fallen asleep yet.
But who knows.
Under the bombardment of Guo Fan's phone calls, two screenwriting teachers went online with strange hairstyles.
"Director Guo, what happened?" Gong Geer looked panicked.
"It's okay, it's okay. The movie is showing well now, what can happen?" Guo Fan quickly clarified.
Gonggel and Yandong were obviously relieved after hearing this.
"Then why are you looking for us in the middle of the night?" Gong Geer and Guo Fan are old friends, and their tone is naturally familiar.
"What in the middle of the night? It's only after eight o'clock. Don't tell me that you went to bed so early?" Guo Fan sounded surprised, thinking how could he sleep at this time?
"Director Guo, we used to stay up all night on the set. Look, the hair on our heads is a lot less."
"I'm almost bald and still haven't slept. Tell me, Director Guo, what's the matter?" Gonggel said with a yawn.
"There are new instructions from above, let's hurry up and shoot the second part." Guo Fan observed their status and decided to get to the point directly.
Gong Geer and Yan Dong's eyes opened wider and wider, and they were so frightened by Guo Fan's words that they lost all sleep.
Some people died, but not completely...
