Chapter 1219 1219: The Devil, Song Mian
This was Lu Jin’s posthumous work. With Lu Jin’s popularity and reputation, he should not have used his final work to sell himself. Why would anyone want to delete the scenes that he had already filmed?
However, since Lu Jin’s agent had already come to her, and this was the last thing that Lu Jin had left for the audience, Yun Xiangxiang naturally could not sit idly by.
“I hope that we can have a private talk. I don’t want to use public opinion to cause the loss of the production team and consume Ah Jin’s image,”Lu Jin’s agent said to Yun Xiangxiang, “The current situation is that because this movie is a military movie, and Ah Jin is the first male lead, the foreign scenes have already been shot. The director, scriptwriters, and producers feel that there is no way to keep the remaining domestic scenes. They would rather delete ah Jin’s scenes and spend more money to reshoot.”
“I will go and find out more about the situation. I will do my best to protect brother Jin’s movie.”Yun Xiangxiang nodded in agreement.
After making an appointment with Lu Jin’s agent, she hung up and called he wei again.
“Xiangxiang, what’s the matter?”
“Brother Wei, I want to know more about the film ‘Special Operations’.”Yun Xiangxiang directly explained the reason.
“This is a very impressive film...”as Yun Xiangxiang’s agent, he Wei definitely had to keep track of the development of the film resources at all times.
The script for “Special Forces”was released. Before the auditions started, he Wei had already noticed it. At that time, it was the end of Yun Xiangxiang’s pregnancy. The film had been prepared for about three years.
He Wei regretted that Yun Xiangxiang missed it. However, after Yun Xiangxiang gave birth, there was another opportunity. Halfway through, an actor had to resign due to serious injuries caused by an accident. The director was the first to think of Yun Xiangxiang.
Firstly, he admired Yun Xiangxiang’s performance in “The Sea of poison.”Secondly, it was naturally convenient to work with Yun Xiangxiang. Thirdly, Yun Xiangxiang was beautiful, but her reputation in the industry was very good. No director said that she could not endure hardship.
At that time, Yun Xiangxiang had already promised Joseph that she would not be able to join “Special Operations.”.
Special Operations was a film about riots in foreign countries and the rescue of foreign citizens by the National Army..
Because Yun Xiangxiang did not join, he Wei did not read the script. He only contacted the film crew to get a general understanding of the situation. However, this was a super-heated film where almost every scene was at its climax.
Lu Jin and Yi Yan were the team that acted in the rescue mission. The foreign scenes had basically been shot, and the rest were domestic scenes. The film was not based on the plot, it was based on the needs of the camera.
This caused the parts that Lu Jin shot to be incoherent. In many places, he was the first male lead.
This was different from the character in “Jiu se”. There were not many scenes, and there was only a little bit of writing left. It could be said that Lu Jin’s scenes were like a rope that cut through countless parts, the completed parts were here and there. Even if they were to find someone to make up for it, they would not be able to make up for it.
“If it’s possible, we don’t want to reshoot,”the director of “Special Forces”said in a regretful tone.
They had spent a lot of money on this movie, especially when Lu Jin had finished shooting scenes that cost money. If they reshot it, they would lose more than 100 million.
No one could predict Lu Jin’s accident, and they could not blame him. They had no choice but to grit their teeth and accept it.
“Can’t we change the script?”Yun Xiangxiang had one last glimmer of hope.
The other party shook his head. “We had an emergency meeting and thought of countless ways, but we were unable to keep Lu Jin’s last scene. In fact, if we could keep the scene, it would be of no harm to us. Lu Jin is a positive actor without any blemishes. His popularity and status determine the sales rate of his film. This is also one of the reasons why we invited him. Now that something like this has happened to him, I think his fans, and even some emotional people, will support this film with the mentality of bidding farewell to him.”
They didn’t even need to use the word ‘posthumous’to promote it. As long as the word ‘Lu Jin’was printed on the film, it would be enough to attract people.
However, the plot of their film was too tight and couldn’t be separated at all. Even the screenwriter was short of this Baldy.
“Where’s the stand-in...”Yun Xiangxiang said hesitantly.
The director’s gaze became sharp. “I can understand your feelings as good friends, but this is my work. I don’t even allow stand-ins when he’s filming. How can I hire a stand-in for most of the later scenes?”
“Director Wang, Brother Jin’s work has been more refined than expensive in recent years. In order to film your film well, he took a year off to train his physical fitness. This also resulted in him not having any other unreleased works other than this film.”Yun Xiangxiang thought about her words carefully, “I know that hiring a double isn’t something worth advocating, but brother Jin’s situation is special, so I think the audience can understand.”
“The audience’s understanding can’t erase the flaws in my film.”Director Wang didn’t accept it. “This is a film that requires a large number of main characters to appear. I Can’t let my film become a shoddy production just because of one person.”
Yun Xiangxiang could understand their insistence. After all, they were willing to suffer hundreds of millions of losses because they respected the film’s work.
From the bottom of her heart, she admired their boldness and their non-perfunctory attitude, but this time, she had no choice but to be selfish. “Director Wang, do you think it can be like this? I’ll get you a ‘face-changing’expert to come back. You can find a substitute to complete the rest of the scenes. I guarantee that his skills will make you gasp in admiration. He’ll be no different from brother Jin himself. It definitely won’t affect the quality of the film.”
After a pause.., yun Xiangxiang said, “We can honestly tell the audience that we’re hiring a substitute to complete the rest of the scenes. We’ll also mark the post-production substitute at the same position as Brother Jin. Of course, we’ll tell him in advance to see if he’s willing...”
This way, they did not need to lose more than 100 million yuan, and they did not need to delay the progress of the film. Similarly, they did not need to delay the other actors. Yun Xiangxiang could also achieve her wish.
Director Wang looked at the Confident Yun Xiangxiang. In his heart, he did not believe that there was such a powerful person. However, he might have to work with Yun Xiangxiang in the future, so it would not be good to have a falling out, hence, he said, “Invite him over. If you can convince the people in charge of the production team, we will discuss it again.”
With this loose sentence, Yun Xiangxiang heaved a sigh of relief and exchanged a smile with He Wei and Lu Jin’s agent.
She immediately went home to contact dark night. The last time she saw this guy’s motion picture, it was flawless and not stiff at all. In fact, it was even more vivid and intelligent than the original picture.
“A film!”Dark night was in a bad mood. “Yun, I will die of exhaustion.”
He would need to process a few hours for a moving picture. How many frames would he need to draw for a film? !
Dark night rejected immediately. Song Mian took the phone and said, “There are two choices. Deal with the film and deal with the corpses.”
Dark night said, “You’re the Devil!”
He was now an intern at the song group. Song Mian could take revenge for his personal vendetta by using the name of practice as a form of training. It would definitely be a thousand times harder for him to deal with the corpses of various diseases than dealing with a film!
