Chapter 245 Seeking the truth! A bomb was set in Wan Villa?
A few days later.
The filming of the movie "A Better Tomorrow" is on track.
Although Chen Wen showed great control during the early preparations, when it came to filming, Chen Wen directly gave all the say to the leading actors and director Wu Baige.
Not only did he not get involved in their film production, but he often asked his subordinates to treat everyone to dinner.
Even the locations for several important scenes in the movie were provided by Chen Wen himself.
Just like the explosion scene shot today, it took place in Chen Wen’s single-family villa.
"Card!"
Following Wu Baige's direction, everyone instantly came out of the whole play.
That’s right! Chen Wen came to visit the set at this time.
This is the first time Chen Wen has come to the scene since the filming of this movie began.
I have to say that although it was a temporary team and a temporary venue, it was a real crew.
"I brought something for everyone, take a break first."
Upon arriving at the crew, Chen Wen immediately invited the actors and directors to have dinner.
Take advantage of everyone's break.
Chen Wen was watching the sample film from the director's position.
In just one morning, they had shot nearly 10 videos.
There is no doubt that these are all preliminary materials for shooting, which can be integrated into a movie after certain editing and released in theaters.
It can be said that even Chen Wen was approaching the scene at such a close distance for the first time.
"Brother Fa, Mr. Chen came to the crew at this time, could it be that he doesn't believe in our acting skills?"
Dillon looked at Chen Wen, who was watching the sample film carefully, with a worried look.
There is no doubt that just from his tone, it can be heard that Dillon is still somewhat unconfident at this moment.
Especially about his own acting skills.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chen only looks fierce, but he's a very nice person."
"Besides, Mr. Chen has already said that as long as we try our best, there shouldn't be any problem."
Zhou Runfa directly comforted Dillon who was standing next to him.
But even though he said this, Zhou Runfa was still very unsure in his heart.
Not to mention anything else, the label of "box office poison" that he currently bears is enough for him to bear.
But even so, he was still trying his best to comfort the people around him while filming.
"Mr. Chen, would you like to eat something too?"
Seeing Chen Wen's expression at the moment, Wu Baige also plucked up the courage to hand the lunch box to Chen Wen.
Obviously, Wu Baige, who has been working in the film industry for many years, knows exactly what Chen Wen's expression means.
That's right! He had seen this kind of scene countless times.
Of course, he also understood that Chen Wen was not satisfied with the sample films he had taken.
Even so, Wu Baige still believes that he has done his best in the filming.
However, he didn't know what kind of effect Chen Wen wanted.
That's why he took this opportunity to come forward and talk.
"Director Wu, our movie is really about brotherhood. Why are you making your explosion scene so long and lingering? Is this an art film?"
"It's obviously a good violent aesthetic, but your explosion is not even as good as the popcorn on the street."
“Isn’t it a bit…”
In front of Wu Baige, Chen Wen did not leave any room for the other party, but directly expressed his thoughts on the scene.
There is no doubt that Chen Wen of later generations was very fond of Wu Baige's violent aesthetics.
But no one would have expected that John Woo at that time not only failed to show any ability in violent aesthetics, but instead made some of the most distinctive scenes so unpresentable.
This was indeed somewhat beyond Chen Wen's expectations!
But in fact, the main reason why Wu Baige was still a down-and-out director at that time was that he had not yet found his own shooting style.
In other words, it’s not that Wu Baige can’t take the picture, but that he hasn’t thought about it yet.
"Mr. Chen, I understand what you mean. This scene is indeed the highlight of the entire movie, but the explosion scene can't be real, right?"
Facing Chen Wen's words, Wu Baige looked as if he had tried his best.
He even spoke out his helplessness without hiding anything.
However, his best efforts did not win Chen Wen's approval, but only Chen Wen's question: "What else?"
"Mr. Chen, what you mean is..."
Obviously, Chen Wen's answer was somewhat beyond Wu Baige's expectations.
But even so, Wu Baige did not confirm Chen Wen's thoughts, he just asked subconsciously tentatively.
After all, the villa that Chen Wen lent to Wu Baige and others for filming was worth tens of millions.
In other words, if this scene was really shot with real guns and real bullets, there would definitely be certain losses.
And this loss is definitely not a small amount!
At that time, Wu Baige couldn't even guarantee the box office, so how could he dare to make such a big move?
"I mean, the reason why I want you to shoot in my villa is to have you shoot this important scene here."
"And I'm not asking you to play house here. You can take pictures however you want."
"It's just a few bombs. Do you want me to help you prepare them?"
Chen Wen directly expressed his views on the movie.
Obviously, he didn't agree with what Wu Baige had just said.
That’s right! As Chen Wen said, this whole scene is the essence of this movie.
If other scenes can be watered down, then this highlight will definitely not give in even a little.
That is why Chen Wen spoke so confidently.
"I understand, Mr. Chen, what you want is real effect."
"If that were the case, then there would be so much damage at the scene..."
Wu Baige continued to ask subconsciously.
Hearing this, Chen Wen just smiled slightly: "Since you are shooting a good work, don't haggle with me about the cost. Besides, I am an investor and I am not short of money."
After hearing what Chen Wen said, Brother Wu Bai was completely dumbfounded!
Although he had already received an investment of 1,000 million from Cost in the early stage, he never expected that this 1,000 million investment would be used in this way.
Looking at the appearance of Brother Wu Bai in front of me, and then looking at the hard work of the other actors.
Chen Wen came up and waved his hand.
"You are the director of this play, and they are the actors of this play. You just need to do your part well."
"As for the bomb scenes and the like, I will ask someone to give you guidance."
"However, Director Wu, violence is also an aesthetic. You should think about what kind of effect you want to present."
Chen Wen gave Wu Baige a very straightforward answer.
There is no doubt that he has said this to the point that Chen Wen wants Wu Baige and several others to completely open up new ideas for filming movies.
That is, the final presentation effect takes priority, and cost control does not exist at all.
"Yes, but, Mr. Chen, do you plan to invite a director or actor to continue filming? Should we continue preparing here?"
Wu Baige quickly continued.
However, after hearing what Wu Baige said, Chen Lun just smiled slightly: "Director or actor? I only know a few filmmakers. Where can I find filmmakers for you?"
After saying this, Chen Wen turned around and left.
Only Brother Wu Bai was left standing there!
No filmmakers?
Who else could direct a movie with this scene?
