Chapter 233: The Finalization of "Myth" and Harassment of the Underworld

As a result, before Sunday was waiting, the crew of "Myth" sent back news to Fan Wubing, saying that "Myth" was about to be completed, which was about one week.

When Fan Wubing heard this, he thought of taking Tong Xiaoyun over to see the fun. Otherwise, once the film was finished, he would not be able to see anything. Only after the movie was processed later can the effect be seen.

The word "finishing" originated from the pre-Qin era. At that time, there was no paper, and people engraved words on bamboo slips. However, the surface of the bamboo slips was oily, not easy to engrave, and were easily eaten by insects. So I came up with a solution, which was to put the bamboo slips on the fire and roast them. This process is called "finishing" or history.

Later in the Qin Dynasty, people used brushes to write on bamboo green, so the process of carving was eliminated. Therefore, when finalizing the draft, they only needed to cut off the bamboo green and write on bamboo white. This procedure is also called finishing.

Finishing the film means finalization. Nowadays, people often use finishing to refer to the filming of a movie, but they don’t know who proposed it first.

Although Jackie Chan and Leung Ka Fai and others were already well-known in Hong Kong, Taiwan and mainland China, they were still a little short of the realm of being popular later. After all, the conditions were limited at this time, and the environment for mainland fans to chase stars was not mature, so there were few things like Yang Nu, a super fan of Liu Tianwang.

What everyone is concerned about is more about the film and television works themselves, rather than the actors themselves.

However, even so, being able to get close to the superstars on the screen, chat and take a photo, is still very happy to accept this practice for young people.

Therefore, when Tong Xiaoyun saw Jackie Chan, Tony Leung, Sun Zhou, Chen Bisong and others, she was very excited, and she was completely in the shape of a child.

"Why didn't you bring me here to play earlier?" Tong Xiaoyun asked for autograph photos with the superstars, took photos with them, and complained about Fan Wubing.

There were a lot of props on the scene, such as the complete set of armor used for cavalry and the decoration of palace maids. Tong Xiaoyun put the armor neatly on her, and with the support of the staff, she rode a few shapes on her horse and took a lot of photos.

Because Fan Wubing wanted to see the problems during the shooting, he asked two staff members of Hengdian Film and Television City to take Tong Xiaoyun to take a look first, and then he found the director and Xia Donghai who was staying here.

"Mr. Fan is here!" Xia Donghai was a little surprised when he saw Fan Wubing.

"Isn't this about to be finished? I have to come over to see the situation and prepare to comfort you." Fan Wubing said with a smile.

This film took quite a while and everyone was a little tired. After the filming, the crew would be disbanded. After a break, they would have to work hard for several other tasks this year.

The director replied with a laugh, "Actually, the filming has been completed today. Now they are just shooting some trailers. This thing can be used when promoting it."

Oh, that's a good idea.

Fan Wubing nodded and expressed his great appreciation for the director's work. At first, he was already arranging a promotional event case. This time, with the director's active cooperation, the effect would be very good. In post-production, we have to rely on the Hollywood special effects production team. There is a company specializing in this, and Fan Wubing can provide the most convenient conditions, so there is no need to worry about the fake scenes in the film.

Afterwards, Fan Wubing sat in the screening room and watched the footage. The director handled some of the classic shots very well, especially the visual effect of the general's head being cut off in the air, which was very touching.

Chen Bisong and Feng Ping's performance in the play is also excellent, but this play is generally a heroic drama, and the beauty is just a decoration. Despite this, the two women can leave a very deep impression on the audience in the film, which is very helpful for their future development.

"Mr. Fan, what are you busy with these days?" Xia Donghai's hair and beard grew longer, and he had never had time to clean up. It looked very classical.

"Busy to deal with others." Fan Wubing said with a smile.

Xia Donghai asked the reason in surprise, and Fan Wubing told the story of the Cultural Bureau that had been framed in the past few days. Xia Donghai was stunned and didn't know what to say. Finally, he shook his head and said, "Fortunately, Mr. Fan, you are here, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

Xia Donghai asked himself that he could not do such a thing except for freaks like Fan Wubing, not many people dared to do it, and they even made the other party bow their heads.

But in this way, the benefits are obvious. At least within the entire officialdom of Shanghai, everyone is a little worried about the New Silk Road Entertainment Company. Whatever things to do in the future will be less concerned about the difficulties. The Cultural Bureau has set an example for everyone to kill the chicken and warn the monkey.

At noon, Fan Wubing invited a banquet for a meal for the crew members to express his gratitude to everyone for their hard work in the film.

Tong Xiaoyun also watched Chen Bisong's concert, so the three women sat together, while the men got together. Fan Wubing held a wine glass toast them one by one, especially appreciating Jackie Chan's performance in the film.

Jackie Chan was in his prime at this time and his skills were much more flexible than in more than ten years later. Therefore, many difficult action scenes were added to the film, which was more enjoyable. All day long, the starring actors were more youthful, unlike the ones that were filmed later. Many actors were already like middle-aged uncles.

"Thank you, Boss Fan, for taking care of the business. I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future." Jackie Chan, Tony Leung and others have great confidence in the success of this film, especially since I heard that there will be some blockbusters to start filming in the future, so I am very polite to Fan Wubing.

After all, everyone makes a living by this. Having a good movie is like having a good job opportunity, so they naturally have to recommend themselves.

"There will be a chance, as long as you have a schedule at that time." Fan Wubing nodded and smiled.

Jackie Chan's position in the Chinese entertainment industry cannot be underestimated, especially in the Japanese market, so Fan Wubing also wants to use his influence to open up his company's market, which can be said to be a win-win opportunity.

When I was half drunk, I suddenly became noisy outside and a little messy.

Xia Donghai asked, "What's going on? I can't feel at ease when I have a meal?"

So the two crew members ran out and soon rushed back, "Not good, someone was making trouble on the ground!"

Everyone put down their chopsticks and ran out. They saw dozens of people on the set holding big sticks and smashing them in a row. Fan Wubing saw two bald guys standing aside, just like supervisors.

"Where are these people coming from?" Fan Wubing asked a staff member in Hengdian.

"It was said that it was a tourist from Hong Kong. Who knew that as soon as they came, they deliberately asked for trouble and said they had been cheated and smashed it around the set. We didn't know what to do, so we had to watch here." The staff said with a depressed look on their faces.

Tourist?! Fan Wubing shook his head and thought to himself that the tourist is not as powerful as Kong Wu! Could it be that the hall in Hong Kong came to the mainland for experience exchange? By the way, show the military value?

However, a person next to Jackie Chan said, "What tourists are the people in the hall, they seem to be the 17-k brothers in the hall in the Hunzhonghuan area. The two bald heads are not unfair and often help their brother's film companies to smash the venue. However, it is very strange that they can actually go to the mainland to smash the venue. Isn't this a cross-border?"

"Can you be sure?" Fan Wubing asked the man.

"There is absolutely no mistake. I have seen those two bald men many times." The man replied very surely.

Fan Wubing nodded and asked Xia Donghai, "Is the horse team still there?"

"I haven't left yet, but my luggage is packed and I'm about to leave." Xia Donghai said.

"Let me find someone and say that I have the strength to work here. Each person costs 200 yuan. Just beat me up with these idiots honestly." Fan Wubing said, "But be careful not to get serious injuries, just break your arms and legs."

"Not good? These are Hong Kong people." Xia Donghai hesitated a little.

"Americans can still be beaten!" Fan Wubing snorted.

The horse team was very quick and in less than three minutes, they rode their horses and swung their big sticks.

The Hong Kong underworld had no idea what happened, and was scolded by a group of horse teams wearing ancient clothes with big sticks. Dozens of people, including the two bald heads, were smashed to the ground. Some people wanted to run, but they definitely couldn't run away. They smashed them back, squatting on the ground with their heads in their arms and trembling. In the blink of an eye, there was no one standing there.

Xia Donghai thought a little far away and said with regret, "Oh, I beat them. I guess it would be a bit troublesome to release our movie in Hong Kong. If they harass them, it would probably affect the box office."

The domestic price level is relatively low. Now a movie is only a few dollars. If the domestic box office revenue can exceed 100 million, it will be quite amazing. In contrast, although the Hong Kong market is not large and the population base is small, the consumption is high, and the box office of 40 to 50 million is still a lot. If the Hong Kong market is lost, it will have a great impact.

Jackie Chan smiled, "Don't be afraid of this. We still have some forces in Hong Kong, and I believe they don't have the courage to make trouble."
