World-class director in the entertainment industry

2009 9 Month 11 Day.

Kyoto.

In a luxurious private room of a big hotel

On the dining table, there are several exquisite dishes.

Xu Shan was facing the door, and opposite him were three people, all wearing suits.

"The first scene of [People on the Journey of Spring], the first scene, officially begins."

"a."

Xu Shan was no longer bald, but wearing a wig. He was eating food slowly with a fork, scanning the three people opposite him while eating.

"Knowing you, let me know that everything is arranged by fate."

"Perhaps God has long been doomed to lead us through in the dark."

"Now I want to say yes, what sin did I do in my previous life, the national animation market is so hot, and you guys have come up with such performance to reward me."

Speaking of which, look at the leftmost one of the three people opposite:

"Your IQ is really refreshing."

The person named on the far left smiled awkwardly.

Xu Shan looked at the person in the middle again:

"And you, Xiao Zhang, you still made progress this year."

The young man named Xiao Zhang in the middle smiled happily upon hearing this.

"You were mentally handicapped last year, but you've been promoted to stupid this year."

Xiao Zhang's happy face froze and turned into embarrassment.

...

...

Filming is a fun, but boring thing.

Qin Dong waited until the crew was formed and the actors were recruited before officially starting filming.

Because of the reputation problem now, so low-key, what about the opening ceremony, forget it, and do it in the next movie.

"People on the Journey of Spring" is a movie about Spring Festival travel, so it must be the winter Chinese New Year stage, and it's still early in September, so we can only shoot some indoor scenes first.

After finishing the indoor scenes in Kyoto, the crew borrowed Xu Shan's home in Kyoto, a villa, as Xu Shan's hometown in the movie.

By the way, let Tao Caihong play a guest role, also playing the role of Li Chenggong's wife played by Xu Shan in the movie.

Don't bother the two masters.

...

After filming these, all crew members rushed to Hanwu City, where most of the film's shots were shot.

At this time, a scrapped train car has been rented.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

Qin Dong has blocked everything from the outside world, and everything is waiting for him to return after filming.

This is his own money, so Qin Dong put his heart into it and must make a good start.

The director has worked hard, why should others not work hard.

The atmosphere of the crew is going on in such an environment...

...

A few months passed in a blink of an eye.

Qin Dong held up a loudspeaker and shouted loudly to the crowd:

"Now, I announce that [People are in the Spring of Journey] is officially finished."

"yeah...."

"It's finished..."

"Long live the director."

Qin Dong looked at the happy faces of the crowd, and was also very happy. Holding the trumpet, he coughed, and the crowd immediately fell silent:

"Everyone cleans up the scene. In the evening, we will have a dinner together and count it as a wrap-up banquet. Thank you for your hard work over the past few months."

"yeah..."

Now everyone is happier.

...

In the evening, Qin Dong took over a small two-story hotel in Hanwu City.

"Director Qin, I respect you and thank you for giving me the opportunity."

At Qin Dong's table, apart from a few main actors of the movie, they were all the heads of various departments of the film crew. At this time, Wang Baobao was the first to thank Qin Dong with a glass of wine, and then finished speaking with his head up.

Qin Dong stretched out his hand and pressed down:

"Sit down and talk."

After speaking, he picked up his wine glass and drank it.

Xu Shan was the second to hold up his wine glass with a smile:

"Director Qin, I won't say more about Lao Xu. There is still a long chance for us to cooperate. Let's have a drink."

For Qin Dong, from the initial suspicion to the current admiration, this person's director talent is not fake, and it is definitely not comparable to him, a monk who has become a monk halfway.

What else can Qin Dong say, just keep drinking.

The result was good, this one started, and the others all came to toast after seeing it.

Some of the supporting actors, whom Qin Dong was not very familiar with, were there at this time, and they also joined in the fun to toast. Qin Dong had no choice but to drink one by one. Fortunately, regardless of his previous life, he is still a person with a good drinker.

Both people have dimples on their cheeks, and the dimples represent that this person can drink.

However, Qin Dong was very self-aware and didn't intend to get drunk, so when he felt a little drunk, he immediately stopped this behavior, and no matter how much others made a fuss, he would not drink.

Why?Because there is no woman he likes here.

What if I drink too much and someone picks up the corpse? Wouldn't it be cheaper for other women.

After drinking for three rounds, Qin Dong left the table early, locked the door and went to bed when he returned to the hotel.

The next day, I got up and took a shower and led the crew back to Kyoto again.

At this time, it is already July 2009, 11.

...

The post-production of the movie also takes time, but fortunately, the budget has enough time.

Another month is enough.

All this is because Qin Dong shoots very quickly, he has a clear rhythm, so he won't waste time, just shoot according to the previous life's film.

Therefore, Qin Dong consumes less film, and some useless shots are not shot at all.

Normally, if it is a 90-minute movie, then the director will shoot more than 120 minutes of shots to ensure the selection of materials for post-editing.

Even though some supporting scenes were filmed, they were deleted in the end and did not appear in the feature film at all.

This is waste, which increases the cost of the film and delays the shooting time.

However, this is the mode of a normal director.

Unless it's wall mounted.

After Qin Dong finished the post-production, he edited a few trailers himself.

...

On December 12, [Pandora] officially ushered in the advent of the global 14D movie era.

Facing such a huge movie, Qin Dong automatically avoided it, and didn't even bother to do the publicity for a while.

It's time to publicize after the wind dies down.

Time passed day by day, and Pandora created a whirlwind all over the world.

During this period, Qin Dong chartered a plane, filmed for a day, and flew to Thailand with a few people, Baobao Wang and Xu Shan, stayed there for a day and then flew back to Kyoto.

Went to shoot some scenes, as an Easter egg after the first movie.

...

After that, I took the company's people and my mentor Lao Liu to China Film Group.

The finished film has to be seen by China Film.

"Very good, the movie is very funny, and China Film will invest several million in publicity."

Qin Dong, who walked out of China Film Group two hours later, took the assurance of Gao Liang, Director of China Film Distribution Department, and left with confidence.

Is it more than a few million?Not much, very little, but that's all there is to it. Qin Dong didn't fight for it beyond his means. How much publicity does the San Wu film want.

It was not until January 2010, 1 in the Gregorian calendar that Qin Dong contacted China Film Group and began to promote the film.

The hurricane of "Pandora", which has been released for more than a month, has stopped for a while, and now the time has come.

...

...

"Recently, Daqin Empire Entertainment Company formally sued Apple Daily and more than a dozen media outlets."

"What kind of confidence makes this student who beat a girl dare to act like this?"

"Beating girls from the same school in public, leading to expulsion, is it true or slandered?"

"According to the investigation, Qin Dong has been a student with excellent character and learning since he was a child. Why did he hit a girl in the school when he was about to graduate in his senior year?"

"The rookie director Qin Dong who was expelled from the school has finished filming his first film as a director [People on Journey to Spring]."

China Film Group is not a small company. As soon as it made a move, many entertainment newspapers reported on Qin Dong and his private affairs, which once again stirred up the situation for several months.

The reports on the Internet are even more varied, how to attract people.

"The sows in the pigsty kept screaming in the middle of the night. Why did the 80-year-old grandmother get on the sedan chair?"

"Is this a loss of morality, or a distortion of human nature?"

"Uncover the unknown secrets of director Qin Dong of [People on Journey to Spring]."

"The untold story between Qin Dong of Huaxia Artists Training Academy and the girl who was beaten."

"Qin Dong, a lawless student? Or a fighter who dares to fight against injustice?"

Qin Dong had seen too many of these routines in his previous life, and they became even more craziest later on. At this time, the era was just getting started, and Qin Dong asked his subordinates to secretly fuel the flames, which immediately attracted the attention of the public.

This type of navy appeared very early. Since others can use it, Qin Dong is not polite. If he wants to use it, it is nothing more than throwing money.

Ordinary people only need to read the newspaper or surf the Internet to see the news, remember Qin Dong's name, and also remember the first movie he made [People in the Spring of Journey].

"The trailer can be released."

A few days after the news spread, the first teaser video of "People in the Spring of Journey to Journey" was released.
