A great director who grew up happily

Chapter 432 My Sister is Cost-Effective

During the filming process, Ning Hao involved a large number of special effects shots, so he could only let Shen Teng and Huang Bo perform to the air, and then do post-production synthesis.

But comedy is different from drama. Special attention must be paid to the rhythm of language and facial expressions. It is indeed quite challenging to make the jokes come true when there are fewer people.

If it was a little difficult for Huang Bo, it was a disaster for Shen Teng.

It’s not that Shen Teng’s acting is worse than Huang Bo’s.

It’s simply that Shen Teng can’t remember the lyrics.

He couldn't even remember his lines correctly on the Spring Festival Gala stage. Asking him to perform into the air with no feedback would make him want to die. Reciting a scene dozens of times is considered normal, and performing exceptionally well can involve reciting it dozens of times.

Even Huang Bo, who was acting with Shen Teng, looked visibly haggard.

After learning about the situation, Chen Jinnian said with a gloating look, "So there are still things that Brother Hao can't handle. I thought you sat in the director's chair every day and had everything planned out."

"I have a lot of headaches." Ning Hao said unhappily. He wanted to challenge himself in a special effects movie, but he didn't expect to get into trouble after starting work.

Ning Hao was very glad that he did not prepare the Little Broken Ball project, but transferred the copyright to China Film Group, otherwise he would be killed. Looking across the country, there are no more than a handful of directors who can make science fiction movies or visual effects blockbusters.

"Isn't your movie about to be released? I see you're not nervous at all."

"My movie? I'm just a cameo guest. What do you mean by my movie?" Chen Jinnian ate the steak in big mouthfuls, as if the lunch box he had just eaten was not his.

"Co-directed, but it's not your movie." Ning Hao was immediately happy.

"That was just Brother Jing taking advantage of the publicity. When he saw that my movie had received a key extension, he mentioned my name during the publicity." Chen Jinnian explained.

Since Bad Genius had low reputation and long-tail box office, Chen Jinnian asked the company to submit an application. Currently, the film can be released until August 8. As for whether it can be postponed for the second time, it depends on whether subsequent theaters need to continue showing it.

"There are a few directors whose works can be postponed, so just be happy."

"Master Xing, they extended the key for three months at a time, which is unique in the inland area."

Ning Hao was speechless. There was indeed no comparison. With the influence and reputation accumulated from the DVD era, even if a lump was served, he could still get the key extension.

"Then let's talk about the guest appearance." Ning Hao tried to change the subject.

"No problem. By the way, arrange a small role for my sister. Also, if your company has a movie to shoot, please consider my sister. She has good acting skills and low pay, so she's a great value for money."

Chen Jinnian immediately took over the conversation and began to recommend Zhao Jinmai with all his might.

Zhao Jinmai is young and her appearance is not particularly stunning, so the movie roles that suit her are very limited, and it is not easy for Chen Jinnian to find roles for her.

Now that Ning Hao is sitting here, he has to be introduced properly. He has many projects in preparation, so there must be a suitable role.

"Value for money?" Ning Hao looked at Zhao Jinmai with a dull look, scaring Zhao Jinmai so much that she quickly stood up.

"It's okay, just sit down and eat." He tried to wave his hand downwards in a gentle tone. Ning Hao was just surprised that someone would recommend an actor in this way.

"Of course it's the price/performance ratio. You only need to spend one cent to get seven points of acting skills. Isn't that better than spending twenty cents to get eight points of acting skills?"

"Of course, my sister doesn't accept every role. If you're looking for revealing scenes, intimate scenes, or scenes with too much physical contact, stay away."

Chen Jinnian did not forget to add one last sentence, mainly because he was really worried about some art film directors. They didn't think between their legs and spent every day studying how to shoot erotic scenes, and their good daughters were ruined by them.

"I am a formal company." Ning Hao hurriedly emphasized that he had deliberately removed those things to make a film suitable for all ages to watch.

After all, the hottest season right now is the spring season. If the whole family, young and old, goes to the cinema on New Year's Day and they show clips that are not suitable for children, they will be complained to death.

"You'd better be a legitimate company. Signing so many directors at once, if one of them messes up and ruins the company's reputation, your company's reputation will be tarnished. The public won't care about unknown new directors, and you'll be the one who gets criticized."

Compared with actors, directors are less well-known and their private lives are less likely to attract attention, but the prerequisite is that the director's values ​​are correct and he can keep his damn mouth shut.

Otherwise, no matter whether you are a 2 billion or 3 billion director, once you make people annoying, no matter how strong the cast is, it will not be able to support the box office.

"Well, I can guarantee that their negative information won't be exposed." Ning Hao said somewhat unconfidently.

The reason why they in the Northwest circle don't use outsiders is to reduce risks, because the production cost and cycle of movies are too long, and they cannot be released at the same speed as TV series.

If the leading actor is exposed for his misconduct during the waiting period, all the early investment in the film will be wasted. Under China's moral concepts, even if there is no official ban on low-quality artists, they will still be spontaneously boycotted. The history books cannot be completely whitewashed by relying on Internet trolls, even if it is a false accusation.

Ning Hao knew all these things very well, so he was a little restless. Now that the filming in the front was not going well, there couldn't be any more trouble in the rear, so he didn't bother to chat with Chen Jinnian.

"I have something else to do. Take your time eating. When you see those two guys at the door, tell them to come back quickly."

Zhao Jinmai waited until Ning Hao left before she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The aura of the big director was still too suffocating for her, a high school student.

"Brother, what is Director Ning Hao in such a hurry to do?"

"What can I do? Just clean up the mess." Chen Jinnian said with a smile. The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, not to mention a lumberjack like Ning Hao who is in charge of thirteen forests at the same time.

It would be strange if nothing happened in the woods.

"You should be more careful in the future, especially when you're in a relationship. You don't have to tell your uncle and aunt, but you must inform me in advance so I can make a plan."

"How could I?" Zhao Jinmai blushed.

For young actresses born after 1995 and 2000, love life issues are of top priority and directly affect the popularity and traffic.

For example, Wang Yidi, because her relationship with him was made public too early, her commercial value and salary offer were greatly reduced. She is a young actress who cannot be used to hype up a CP and has no use value in the current film and television industry.

If fans don’t ship sugar, there will be no topic, without topic it won’t be on the hot searches, without hot searches it won’t drive the traffic of the drama, and without traffic there will be no box office revenue.

The reason why the beginning of the year was so popular was not only because of its acceptable quality, but also because of the fans' love for the film. For example, when "Bad Genius" was released, some fans were still upset about the ending, thinking that the two of them could have turned evil together, which was better than the current ending.

However, Chen Jinnian wanted to say that he actually had another ending, which he had filmed, but he did not dare to submit it for review. He planned to sell the online broadcasting rights and consider releasing it when it was released in other countries.
