Superstars In Parallel Time and Space
Chapter 821: A long way to go
Chapter 821
"President Chen, what a genius!"
After listening to Chen Mubai's analysis, Thomas was dumbfounded and full of praise.
This is the truth, not the kind of compliment that is said because of their different status.
For stars and directors of the same level or higher, people in this circle will compliment, which is commonly known as flattering.
This is the norm in the circle, and there is no shame. Everyone is accustomed to this way, but many people say things that are not right. On the surface, they admire, admire and even say that they are too small. They may be scolding or despising each other. normal.
It’s like someone sees a traffic star in a big fire. Although it’s very hot, it will be fake when you meet it on the occasion, but if you say you can look at the other party, it’s really not.
In the ranks of celebrities, although traffic celebrities look glamorous on the surface, they are actually looked down upon by the most people, because they have no strength and are the ones who have launched capital. Anyone can become this person, and they are not irreplaceable.
just mix in the same circle to give face.
look down on you, but knowing the capital behind it, everyone will maintain a superficial friendship.
This is like many superficial brothers, and plastic sisters have the same.
It looks like hello and I’m good in front of people, and there are all kinds of praises, but there is something to be done, the first one to fall into trouble is each other.
Toms usually praised others a lot, but this time he admired Chen Mubai is true.
His previous compliments to Chen Mubai were largely due to his status and honors.
But I really want to say that I admire the other party more, really not, even as an actor, he does not think that his acting skills are worse than the other party.
Sometimes, a drama is popular, in addition to the interpretation of the actors, it is also related to the quality of the work itself.
The more popular the actor of the drama, the easier it is to become famous. It is not how good his performance is, but because the drama has a big impact and many people watch it, so there are more fans, and the role will arouse more discussion and love.
The acting skills of the actors in the literary works are not bad, and they are not as popular as the characters in commercial movies. This is not a problem of actors' acting skills, but the reason is the problem of influence.
The audience of literary and artistic movies is too small, and the influence is small, so the out-of-circle role is naturally not as good as commercial works.
In Thomas’ eyes, he is very proud. He feels that his acting skills are not worse than others, but he lacks an opportunity.
So, when he first approached Chen Mubai, he had a very clear attitude, giving me the protagonist and I would act, if not, I would not act.
He just wants to play a protagonist to prove himself, and Chen Mubai also needs actors to interpret new works to further expand the American market. The two people can say that the interests are the same.
Chen Mubai inspected the set today. He is not only an investor, a producer, or a producer of the show, Thomas saw him inevitably to praise him.
But what the true attitude is, only he himself knows.
Just after the performance of a play, the problems pointed out by Chen Mubai really made his eyes shine. This is where he didn't think about it well. If he performs it in that way, the effect will be better.
At least, I have a stronger impression of Chen Mubai in my heart and affirm his level.
Then Chen Mubai and Rondo said, after analyzing many details of the show, Thomas really convinced.
Unexpectedly, in the setting of the plot, Chen Mubai did such a meticulous plan, and then think of the popularity of "Prison Break", this is not a matter of luck but quality.
From "The Walking Dead", we can see Chen Mubai's control over the setting, so the details in "Prison Break" are naturally the same. No wonder the score will be so high and it will be loved by the audience.
"It did make me feel like a rush." Rondo replied with a smile, his words also full of admiration.
"Today Mr. Chen's remarks made me more confident in the control of the plot, and I will do better in the follow-up actions against zombies."
Chen Mubai smiled: "How can you say that is so exaggerated, even if I don't say it today, you will be aware of it after taking a long time."
Thomas shook his head: "There is a difference, even if you wake up later, the previous scenes will be filmed. These mistakes can't be made up."
After all, is a work that was released while filming. Even if there are some insights in the later stage, but the previously deduced works have already been released, naturally, the established facts cannot be changed.
"It just so happened that President Chen woke me up, let's hurry up and continue to take one?" Thomas looked at Director Rondo and said with a smile.
"Come."
"action!"
Soon, the actors are in their positions, and the scene of the scene just comes on again.
It’s just that I haven’t done one. It took a few shots to complete, but the effect is indeed better than before. This is the ending that everyone can see at a glance.
Though Thomas understands this multi-emotional way of acting, it is still difficult to perform.
It is very simple to show an emotion, and it is very easy to express the emotions of happiness and loss.
But it’s not that simple to perform multiple emotions. For example, a smile is sometimes not a happy smile but a bitter smile. The expression of these two emotions is much more difficult.
This is the situation faced by Thomas. His eyes have to show joy and let everyone see the look of guard, which is extremely difficult to perform.
So it clicked several times in a row, but the actors from the American Screen Actors Guild were not bad in acting. After all, this represents their own ability. They also rely on this rice bowl to eat. After a few shots, they passed.
Chen Mubai left after staying in the crew for a while, without intervening in Rondo's filming.
Although he is a producer and has the obligation to supervise the filming, he has his own works behind him. It is impossible to be too distracted by this drama. The main thing is to rely on Rondo to shoot himself.
Another purpose of the production of this drama is to promote "The Walking Dead".
The fire of "Prison Break" made American audiences believe in Chen Mubai's ability, so his famous works will be considered by everyone to be of good quality and have a publicity effect.
The reason why Chen Mubai came to inspect the set was to let Rondo know that he valued this drama very much and asked him to film it with heart.
Whether it is the name of the producer or the purpose of the appearance, including the answer to the script and the interpretation of the telling Thomas, it is another aspect that reminds them that they must be produced with care. This drama is related to the newly emerging reputation and should not be lost.
Only if he has done all aspects, they will pay more attention to this drama.
Although Rondo has done well enough, he can see that he is very diligent from the construction of the entire scene and the costumes of the group performance, but Chen Mubai needs to strive for perfection and also puts pressure on him.
Rondo is not a fool. He naturally knows the intention of Chen Mubai's appearance, and he also said that the budget is not a problem, as long as the knife is used to improve the quality of the work, these are all hints.
Rondo received the message, and Thomas also understood Chen Mubai’s intentions. They will put more energy into the subsequent shooting.
After this period, the two have more confidence in the prospects of the work.
The reason why many works are poor is that the script is not good, or the budget is not enough.
Insufficient budget is the most deadly place. For example, special effects need to spend money, because budget problems can only become 50 cents special effects, and even actors, makeup, etc. will have problems.
Any point of the problem will reduce the quality of the work, because there may be too many slots and bugs.
These two points, "The Walking Dead" is completely okay, so the quality of the work will inevitably rise sharply, and the quality will be high.
Quality is guaranteed, then the chances of a big fire in the work will be much higher, and the probability of Thomas becoming popular will also be greater, which is an motivating goal for everyone.
The other starring actors in the "The Walking Dead" crew are also very excited, because everyone may be hot!
With this kind of excitement, everyone put more energy into the shooting process.
Chen Mubai simply appeared on the crew. It was a stimulant for the crew of The Walking Dead, which made the atmosphere of the whole crew different, and everyone's emotions became a little fanatical.
"Reaper is Coming" and "Saw Horror" are also in production.
Chen Yunteng and Ji Yuxuan are responsible for two works respectively.
Here, Chen Mubai has adapted both scripts. The background is not set abroad, but at home.
This saves them from going to foreign countries to shoot, just in China.
The problem with actors is the combination of Chinese and Western. There are Chinese and foreigners in the lead role.
After all, is a cultural work exported to the outside world. It is normal that there are many American actors in the initial works, after all, they want to occupy the American market.
If there are no Americans, all of them are Chinese, and American audiences will not be interested.
Many people look at the work on the premise that the actors who watch the work, if they are foreigners, they don’t.
Chen Mubai is a bit influential, but it hasn’t been so influential that it makes others abandon nationality and language.
He can only make progress slowly and gradually, first using more foreign actors, and then adding Huaxiaren little by little, so that foreign audiences can watch the work.
When his word-of-mouth becomes more and more influential, he can gradually reduce foreign actors, increase Chinese actors, let the other party adapt, and export culture invisibly.
Many American works also have Asian faces, so Chen Mubai has Chinese people in his works, and it will not appear abrupt, which is acceptable to the audience.
The works he produces now not only have to consider Chinese audiences, but also face foreign audiences, and are no longer a single group.
Fortunately at home, everyone knows that Chen Mubai is going abroad and wants to export Chinese culture, and everyone will support him.
The foreign side is the target of the key strategy. Even if the work tells a little bit of Westernization, but the storyteller and the script are Chen Mubai, then the cultural belonging of the work is naturally Chinese.
Chen Mubai’s external culture can be regarded as achieving it. "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World" has aroused heated discussions among some international audiences, and many people are curious about the Chinese mythology system.
It’s just that this is an anime movie, and foreigners don’t feel much resistance. If it’s a Chinese actor, I’m afraid there will be fewer people watching it.
At present, Chen Mubai has opened a gap and needs to continue to spread its influence. This needs to rely on subsequent works to expand its influence, so that foreign audiences will gradually accept Huaxia's actors and then accept film and television culture.
Only in this way can more foreigners be interested in Chinese culture.
A long way to go!
