C319 Lack of People
And this time, they had come to Tianhai Film Studio City to film, so they had done enough publicity in the media.
The entire production team had just gotten off the plane when countless fans of Han Zhou and Xu Haiyan surrounded them. All sorts of screams and cheers were heard, causing the spectators who did not know the truth to be stunned.
When they arrived at Tianhai Film and Television City, they were even interviewed by over a hundred media outlets. For a moment, their momentum was no different from the low-profile Doomsday Legends cast and crew. It formed a sharp contrast.
Ever since Sky Fortress launched such a large-scale promotional campaign, everyone had almost forgotten that there was another domestic sci-fi movie that had started filming almost at the same time, and then released at the same time.
And this kind of low-profile was also what Lin Fan wanted. After all, filming a movie required time. The plan was to film a complete movie in a year's time, so they could not publicize it every day.
Xu Haiyan had invested a large amount of money into announcing it. This was a way to burn money. How much money could be left for the production of the movie? It was worth thinking about.
Those in the industry who knew about the industry naturally saw through the trick. They also understood that this kind of flashy but not realistic cooking might not be able to produce any good movie. However, this was after all the rules of the industry, so no one came out to expose it.
Although Lin Fan's movie only had a year of filming time, Wang Mo's script had been polished for a full seven years, and only the story had been prepared. It did not take long for the real movie to be filmed, and the production technology in the country was already very mature.
In fact, it had only been filmed in the movie city for about half a year, and the remaining half of the year was used to make special effects.
However, in order to fight Lin Fan in the arena, Xu Haiyan also compressed the filming time of the Sky Fortress movie into a year. Although she had the foundation of the original novel, having a novel did not mean that she could directly film a movie. She also needed an adaptation of the script.
If he didn't carefully analyze the script, then the millions of words in the entire novel would be compressed into a movie that lasted for two hours.
It was not that everyone in Xu Haiyan's crew did not understand these problems. However, with the number one traffic in China and the support of A-list celebrities, they believed that no matter how the movie was filmed, it would be paid by the fans. As long as the box office was guaranteed, it would be fine as long as they could make money. Everything else was secondary.
After Sky Fortress arrived at Tianhai Film Studio City, they held a grand opening ceremony and invited a group of celebrities to help once again.
Even the owner of the Tianhai Film Studio City, Lee Xiaokang, was invited.
"Young Master Lin, this Xu Haiyan actually sent an invitation to me. Do you think I'm going or not?" Lee Xiaokang held the invitation in his hand and did not know whether to laugh or cry.
He estimated that if Xu Haiyan knew that he was on Lin Fan's side, she would not dare to send the invitation. It would be good if she did not run away in fear.
"It's up to you. You decide for yourself." Lin Fan said indifferently.
"Why don't I go and take a look and add some trouble to her?" Lee Xiaokang was still thinking of scamming her again.
"Forget it. I have already scammed twenty million. It would be a bit too much to do it again. No, I can't bear to do it anymore. " Lin Fan held back his laughter.
Speaking of which, Xu Haiyan did not have much enmity with him, and Lin Fan did not plan to do anything to her.
However, Xu Haiyan just could not hold back her anger and insisted on competing with her. This was also something that could not be helped.
"That's fine. I will spare her today. If she still does not have eyes to provoke you, I will teach her a lesson!" Lee Xiaokang said.
"Well, at most she will only cause me some trouble in the movie. She will not cause any big trouble." Lin Fan did not even look directly at Xu Haiyan. She was just a celebrity. When she was supported by others, she was a celebrity. Without fans, she was nothing.
Until now, Xu Haiyan had not touched Lin Fan's bottom line. Otherwise, she would have been like the other celebrities who lost their reputation.
The Apocalypse Legend's side occupied the largest film studio in Tianhai Film Studio City, and they were filming in a low-profile manner.
Because Sky Fortress Crew had arrived late, they could only use the second film studio. Xu Haiyan was very dissatisfied with this, but this was Tianhai Film Studio City. Even if she wanted to stir up trouble, she was powerless and could only hold it in.
After all, the filming crew of the two movies were filming in the same film studio city. Both parties lowered their heads and did not see each other. They were also competitors, so it was inevitable that there would be some small friction.
Although Lin Fan did not intend to make a move on her, Xu Haiyan did not think so. These few days, she had been preparing to make things difficult for Lin Fan. She had planned to delay the other party's movie shooting plan. In any case, she did not plan to let Lin Fan have a good time.
During filming, especially for scenes that involved big scenes, a lot of actors were needed.
Skysea Film Studio had a large number of actors and actresses waiting at the entrance every day for the production crew to recruit workers. Although there seemed to be a lot of actors and actresses, there seemed to be a lot of filming crew members recently, which resulted in a shortage of actors and actresses.
"Why are there so few people? Where's the field work? What's going on?" Early in the morning, after Wang Mo brought the crew to work, he discovered that the number of filming crew members he had requested was a hundred. In the end, there were only fifty of them.
"Director Wang, I went to recruit people before dawn. I don't know why, but there are very few people today. Up until now, I've only found fifty people."
The crowd was so anxious that they ran over with sweat all over their bodies.
Wang Mo saw that half of the people were gone and frowned.
There was no way he could film such a small number of people, especially the scenes that were going to be filmed. It was a scene of the entire city being attacked for the first time and people escaping in panic.
A hundred group performances was the minimum requirement. The other people in the movie were using special effects. If fifty people added special effects, the scene would be very stiff.
"Contact them again and see if there are any more jobs outside."
"Okay, I'll go right now."
After a while, the field officer ran back to report: "Director Wang, there is no more. I've also contacted the agent. He said that the manpower has been tight recently. Recently, the group performances have all been booked by the Sky Fortress Crew."
"What? F * ck!" Wang Mo cursed.
It was the Sky Fortress Crew who did all this. This was an f * cking dirty trick!
Wang Mo finally understood. It was not Xu Haiyan who used so many group performances normally. She must have seen that he was going to have a large number of people in the group. That was why she did this.
However, it was just as Wang Mo had thought. This was Xu Haiyan's doing. She could not think of anything else for the time being, but it was very easy for her to perform in a group.
