Although the feature film of "Thunder Gun Saint" has not yet been released, the movie poster has far exceeded the expectations of netizens. However, the production cycle of science fiction movies is long, and everyone thinks that they will not see the film online for at least a year, and they feel even more nervous, and they can't wait to see the film tomorrow.
Because the crew needed to set up a lot of scenes and shoot action scenes under the green screen, Chu Xiaxing began to work in the crew for a long time, which is estimated to be her normal state for the next year.
The crew of "The Gunslinger" also went to the familiar Luokang Film and Television Base. Chu Xiaxing met with Anderson, the head of the base, again. This time, more scenes from the Luokang base were used. She is busy working in overseas film and television bases, and naturally stays away from domestic news, and even misses receiving her own awards.
During the half year that Chu Xiaxing was filming outside, Cao Yanggang won the Best Supporting Actor. He relied on his own efforts to gain a firm foothold in the main drama, and now he often plays a supporting role in the main drama, which can be regarded as stable and improved his acting skills; Zhou Xuelu is a big idol Now her popularity is soaring, and only the projects she is in contact with can revitalize the artist agent of Fanke Films; Hou Shenyue regretfully missed the best actor, the award-winning actor is a senior, but he also relies on "Wu Dao" The performance in "Washed his reputation, and many viewers took grievances for him, thinking that his performance was better than his predecessors.
The movie "No Way" finally won the Best Screenplay Award, the Best Director Award and the Best Supporting Actor Award, which is a good harvest. Chu Xia Xingyuan was unable to go to the scene overseas, so she asked Wang Toyota to accept the award on her behalf. She did not attend the award ceremony.
After Xie Zhaoyan and Hou Shenyue finished filming their scenes in "Gun Saint", they returned to China for activities. Chu Xiaxing and others are not easy to get away from overseas. She can only communicate with the "Wu Dao" crew via video, and share the joy of winning remotely.
In the video, Zhou Xuelu complained, "Director Chu, you haven't seen me for a long time..."
Cao Yangang: "Boss, me too, me too!"
Hou Shen is still participating in "Thunder Gun Saint" anyway. Zhou Xuelu and Cao Yangang are in the rising stage of their careers and are gradually breaking away from Chu Xiaxing's wings. They really have less time to communicate with her.
Chu Xiaxing teased: "One of you is popular, and the other just won an award. Isn't that afraid of me climbing high?"
Zhou Xuelu and Cao Yangang wailed suddenly. They seemed to be brooding about not being scolded for a long time, venting their thoughts.
Wang Toyota smiled and said, "I'll give your trophy to Xiao Xia. You can just ask him to get it when you come back."
Hou Shenyue: "Director Chu, is the crew still busy?"
Hou Shenyue is a supporting role in "Thunder Gun Saint". He does not have as many shooting tasks as Qiao Zhansi, let alone staring at special effects production like Director Chu. Naturally, he did not stay at the Luokang Film and Television Base for too long.
"It's still the same." When Chu Xiaxing heard that Hou Shenyue missed the award, she rarely encouraged her kindly, "It doesn't matter if you have any regrets this time, you are this year's best actor in my heart."
Hou Shenyue's loss was related to his original traffic status. In addition, another senior was an old acquaintance of the review team. Naturally, he had to consider various interests. It was impossible for "Wu Dao" to win all the awards. Chu Xiaxing said at the beginning that "the actor can do it if he has the hand", but she really couldn't bear to see Hou Shenyue's defeat.
Hou Shenyue had actually adjusted his mood, but he rarely heard Director Chu's praise, and he was immediately flattered: "I think it's more worthwhile for Director Chu to say this than winning..."
Hou Shen understands the judging team's mentality of dividing pork. After shooting the police and bandit movie "24 Frames of Light and Shadow", he has figured out a lot of things. He will no longer easily judge himself by external voices, but learn to think independently and move forward. He may regret missing an award in a certain year, but he believes that perseverance will always pay off, and his mind will become much calmer.
Now that Director Chu can say this, Hou Shenyue feels that it is more valuable than winning the award. After all, the award must consider interests, but what Chu Xiaxing has to say is naturally much more convincing!
Chu Xiaxing was quite amused: "Since you think it is more worthwhile, you can get the best actor in the future and exchange it with me for the trophy. If you hand over the trophy, I will praise you."
Hou Shenyue: "When will I be able to cooperate with Director Chu? How soon can I get the trophy?"
Zhou Xuelu: "This is the beginning of the appointment? You are too cunning!"
Everyone jokingly chatted for a while, then reluctantly hung up the phone and made an appointment to return to China to meet with Chu Xiaxing.
The work of the "Thunder Gun Saint" is routine and repetitive. Chu Xiaxing instructed the actors to perform in front of the green screen during the filming. Spring time.
Duan Chengyan and others have already flown back to China ahead of time. As the eldest young master, he must appear in the family reunion, otherwise it is not good to continue to play coquettishly in front of the elders to seek resources. Chu Xiaxing did not go home for the New Year. She made a video call to Han Chuning and Chu Qiuyi to say hello, and she was still stationed in the film and television base to work.
After Anderson heard the news, he was in awe, thinking that Chu Xia Xingyuan was very human. His Chinese has improved recently, and he is barely able to communicate with Chu Xiaxing. If he can't, he mixes Chinese and English, and they can still understand each other's meaning: "I thought the Spring Festival was an important day for you, but why don't you go home?"
Chu Xiaxing: "The family is used to it."
Chu Xiaxing often didn't go home during festivals. On the one hand, it was determined by the nature of his work. On the other hand, there were few family members who went back to visit. Her relatives are quite limited, and they all have their own lives, not always tied together.
Anderson was afraid that Chu Xiaxing would be alone, and suggested: "There is a Spring Festival event in Chinatown now. You can go and have a look. It should be very lively."
Chu Xiaxing declined Anderson's proposal. She lacked interest in it. Instead of wasting time outside, it was better to rush out the first trailer.
Anderson said with emotion: "It's a workaholic like Song. I can't imagine not going home for Christmas."
Chu Xiaxing: "It's just my personality."
Some people in the crew asked for leave to go home like Duan Chengyan, and some people continued to stay at the base like Chu Xiaxing. On the day of the Spring Festival, Chu Xiaxing did not detain the remaining staff, and let them go shopping in Chinatown. Anyway, she took a day off, and she continued to watch the material.
Surprisingly, Song Wenye actually appeared in the crew and did not go home for the New Year like Duan Chengyan.
When Chu Xiaxing saw Mr. Song who was visiting the crew, she was extremely surprised, and said strangely: "Don't Mr. Song go home for the New Year?"
"There was a problem with the flight, and I couldn't make it back in time for the New Year's Eve dinner, so I said come over and have a look." Song Wenye greeted the remaining staff and suggested, "Let's get together?"
Chu Xiaxing: "As expected of you, here to treat again."
Song Wenye took the initiative to invite the cast members in a foreign country to have a New Year's Eve dinner, which also cheered the production team up and relieved the loneliness of everyone being unable to go home. After the simple hilarity, Chu Xiaxing asked curiously, "You won't go back if you don't make time for the New Year's Eve dinner? Duan Chengyan has already gone home."
Song Wenye said peacefully, "Didn't Director Chu also go back?"
"I have nothing to see when I go back..."
Chu Qiuyi's family also had their own Spring Festival plans, and Chu Xiaxing felt that it was a little strange to integrate into it. She suddenly reacted and asked suspiciously, "Are you here to care for the empty-nesters?"
Chu Xiaxin had no relatives alive, and Song Wenye had received help from his father. He knew about this, and he might have come here on purpose.
Song Wenye blinked solemnly: "I'm also an empty-nest old man, and at most I count as an old man hugging together to keep warm."
Chu Xiaxing was amused by the other party and joked: "How can you be considered an empty nester? Duan Dong must be looking forward to your return."
"No, I don't often go home for the New Year." Seeing her suspicious face, Song Wenye simply explained, "It's true, it was my father's work relationship when I was a child, but later I was busy with work and my family was afraid of disturbing her, so I didn't. Force me to go back."
Chu Xiaxing showed a thoughtful look. Duan Hui and others often needed to stay at work during the holidays, so Song Wenye did go home less often for Chinese New Year. She nodded and said, "Okay, it's true that two career-oriented empty-nest seniors report to a group to keep warm and celebrate the New Year in a foreign country."
Song Wenye: "What did Director Chu do during the Chinese New Year?"
Chu Xiaxing was stunned when she heard the words. She really didn't have much impression of the previous New Years, so she subconsciously replied, "Give red envelopes to children?"
Chu Xiaxing often doesn't go home for the Chinese New Year, but she will give Han Chuning a red envelope. Even if she doesn't meet during the Spring Festival, she will make up for it later.
Chu Xia Xing thought that there was a small section in front of her, and she probed again: "Do you need me to send you one?"
Chu Xiaxing: After all, it's the kid who was cheated in the canteen back then, so it seems like I should be careful.
Song Wenye: "?" Is this a sudden advantage
Seeing that he didn't answer, Chu Xiaxing showed her true nature of cheating money again, and said brazenly, "Then Mr. Song will send me one?"
Song Wenye: "..."
Song Wenye's Spring Festival greetings came to an end after losing a red envelope. Chu Xiaxing also took him to watch the upcoming trailer of "Thunder Gun Saint". The two workaholics had no other topics during the Spring Festival, so they simply talked about work.
Because the world view of the original game is so huge, how to extract the story is very important. The first trailer is very short, without too many plot lines, more like fragmented splicing. The short film shows a futuristic setting, extremely cool special effects, and accurately outlines the game world view, which is very blockbuster.
Even the well-informed Song Wenye was deeply shocked after reading it, and confessed: "I have to start working with Director Chu for a few more years."
Chu Xiaxing: "What?"
Song Wenye: "I'm afraid the money will go up again after the movie is released, so hurry up and save the budget."
Chu Xiaxing: "Mr. Song is really shrewd. He even cares about raising money. You were not like this before. You have always been very decisive in making money."
Song Wenye: "It's not that the red envelopes have just been distributed, so naturally we have to care about it."
Chu Xiaxing: "?"
After the Spring Festival, the trailer of "Thunder Gun Saint" was finally released. The exquisite and smooth special effects actions and the highly restored scene construction have amazed the public. For the first time, the audience saw a sci-fi movie comparable to a foreign blockbuster. The trailer instantly exploded the topic of domestic Internet, and even rushed to the hot search.
At the same time, Fanke Films began to arrange overseas distribution and promotion. If you want "Gun Saint" to win the overseas market, overseas warm-up is also indispensable.
On the bustling street in a foreign country, the trailer of "The Thunder Gun Saint" was played on the huge screen. After the vigorous thunder, Qiao Zhansi's mixed-race face appeared on the screen. His face was covered with a little dust, but his eyes were bright and straight. straight ahead.
The close-up shot fully showed Gun Sheng's handsome features, which attracted passers-by on the streets of foreign countries to stop. They all watched the trailer with novelty, and then left one after another.
On the corner of the street, the man with an oriental face was staring at the screen. He looked old, but he was staring at Qiao Zhansi in the picture, seemingly dazed.
The man waited until the title at the end of the trailer flashed, and then remembered the names of the film's director and starring actors, and then walked away silently.
