Chapter 128 Movie

On January 1, 2017, it snowed heavily in many areas of China. The first hot search of the year was taken by Wen Xia, who had been silent for a long time.

"Wen Xia is finished!"

The web drama "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Ancient City" in which Wen Xia participated was successfully completed after three months of filming. Wen Xia himself also uploaded a photo of the entire crew on Weibo during the filming.

It will probably take some time before the online drama can be released, probably after the Spring Festival at the earliest as a spring show.

Because Luo Quan uninstalled Weibo, he got the news relatively late, but he still immediately posted a post to congratulate Wen Xia. Unfortunately, it was at station B, and he didn't know whether Wen Xia could see it or not.

On the other hand, Junko has been practicing at the Red House Dance Studio in Beijing these days, and her dancing level has improved rapidly. In addition, she also applied for an account on Weibo, and with the help of Wen Xia, she accumulated the first batch of fans.

There are thousands of fans, and there are probably dozens of them alive. Apart from practicing dancing and singing every day, Junzi refreshes Weibo to see how many fans she has gained every day. Sometimes she will feel uncomfortable for a long time if she loses even one follower.

When Luo Quan was hacked on Weibo before, she also spoke up for her friends, but it was a pity that her words were so low-key that it had no effect. Later, when "18" was released, she even supported one and it was played on a loop every night.

It is said that Ghost Blowing the Lantern has just finished filming, and Wen Xia has taken on another new drama, which is a remake of Jin Yong's classic martial arts novel "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Slayer", in which she plays the lead female lead Zhao Min.

It's another big production, with a female lead. It seems that Penguin Interactive Entertainment really values ​​Wen Xia, with two very good resources in succession.

However, Wen Xia was still a little dissatisfied when she mentioned it to Luo Quan. Originally, she didn't plan to accept the drama in the first half of this year, but the company strongly recommended it, so she accepted it.

Penguin will have a big talent show in the first half of this year, with a very large investment. This was also a plan that Wen Xia produced when he was in Tokyo, and was later adopted by Penguin Interactive Entertainment.

"There is something I want to ask you. I wonder if you are willing to agree?" Wen Xia said in a very sincere tone while talking to Luo Quan.

Luo Quan laughed: "Who is the relationship between the two of us? Since you have begged me, I will definitely not agree."

"………………"

"Just kidding, tell me what's wrong with you?"

"I've told you before that I'm going to do a talent show, right?"

"Create a Chinese girl group that can be compared with Korean girl groups?"

"Yes! I want to invite you to be a mentor on this show!"

Luo Quan was stunned for a moment: "But I can't dance."

"No need to dance, you will be the vocal and composition instructor. I wonder if you would like to come?"

"When?" Luo Quan never thought about refusing.

"Probably early March."

"Luckily, I happen to be on spring break, but you took on "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Slayer". Can you finish filming in such a short time?"

"The crew will take a few days off during the Chinese New Year. The filming will definitely be completed in three months. I learned a lot on the Ghost Blowing Lantern crew and I am very good at acting!" Wen Xia seemed to be showing off to Luo Quan.

"Then when the ghost blows out the lantern, I will definitely go and take a look. It will be too embarrassing then, but don't blame me for laughing at you!"

While chatting and laughing, the two of them agreed on their cooperation. Luo Quan never discussed the appearance fee for participating in the show, and Wen Xia later sent a contract via email.

There are a few big words written on it: Creation Camp Mentor Contract!

Luo Quan trembled when he saw this name. Could it be that there was some divine will?

However, in the previous life, it only started next year, but in this world, it was a year ahead of schedule.

But no matter what, this program is the first of its kind in China, and its popularity and reviews are very high. With Wen Xia joining the show, it will definitely receive considerable attention after its debut.

If there are no problems with the professional abilities of the group members, it will not be difficult for them to become popular with Luo Quan writing songs for them, but whether they can compete with Korean girl groups depends on luck.

At the beginning of the new semester, it was still the same classroom, the same classmates, and the same teachers. Luo Quan learned very easily.

The Love Music band had no time to rest at all during this holiday. They had been holding concerts in Europe and making a lot of money. However, after returning to school, everyone looked a little haggard.

"Why are you all like this?" Luo Quan asked.

Akira Kumoi said in a hoarse voice: "European fans are so enthusiastic. They shout for an encore after every song. A concert takes two or three hours. We traveled to five countries in half a month. After holding seven concerts, everyone is almost exhausted!”

Luo Quan said worriedly: "You are the lead singer, so you need to take good care of your voice. Don't use too much force."

"It doesn't matter." Kumoi Akira waved his hand, that's what rock and roll is all about. How can you arouse the emotions of fans if you don't be passionate?

Moreover, I have been learning the scientific way of occurrence recently. As long as you pay attention to rest, there will be no major problems with your throat. "

Having said that, Luo Quan is still worried.

Japanese singers are famous for their dedication. In the past, many diva-level female singers were so dedicated that they wore headphones and worked in the recording studio for long periods of time. As a result, they often became deaf at the end of their careers.

Although Akatsuki Kumoi is unlikely to suffer from deafness, voice loss is extremely fatal for singers. If he doesn't take care of his voice, Akatsuki Kumoi's career as a singer will not last long.

Fortunately, Universal Records is not the kind of shady company that squeezes its artists to death. After the European trip, there was no activity for a long time, and everyone in the Love Music band could take a good rest.

Luo Quan received an unexpected business.

The second day after school started, Luo Quan received a call from South Africa.

Has the loan business now developed to a multinational level? Full of doubts, Luo Quan answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hello, do you mean Luo Quan?"

"Yes, you are?"

"I'm director Wu Jin, have you heard of me?"

"Wu Jin?" Luo Quan searched for the name in his mind, but found nothing. "Sorry, I have been abroad for the past few years and don't know much about domestic directors."

"Wolf Warrior 1 was filmed by me."

"!" Luo Quan was stunned. She didn't expect that the director of this movie would actually come to her.

Although the names are different, since this movie has been filmed, it is probably almost the same. Counting the time, it is now the time when Wolf Warrior 2 is in full swing in South Africa!

"What do you want from me?"

"To be honest, we are filming Wolf Warrior 2 in South Africa. Not long after filming, the lead actress ran away because she thought the pay was too low. We are looking for a new lead actress, and it seems that you are the only one who best meets the requirements. of."

"But I'm a singer and I've never filmed before."

"The heroine in this drama doesn't need much acting skills. She only needs to be beautiful and beautiful."

It turned out to be a vase, Luo Quan understood.

In my impression, the heroine of Wolf Warrior 2 is a mixed race from the Five Kingdoms. This person probably does not exist in this life, otherwise Wu Jin would not have found her.

"So are you going to South Africa for filming? How long will it take?"

"It's in South Africa, and it will take about two months to shoot..." Wu Jin was silent for a moment, "You should be in school now, right?"

"School just started yesterday."

"What a coincidence..." Wu Jin didn't even know what to say.

"But I can coordinate with the school and ask for a long vacation."

"Really!" Wu Jin shouted excitedly, "I didn't expect you to be so generous. In fact, you can think about it more. The conditions of our crew are not very good, and the salary is also..."

Luo Quan smiled and said: "I have watched Wolf Warrior 1. It is a very good movie. We in China need more movies like this!"

"I can't guarantee anything else. Wolf Warrior 2 will definitely be a good movie, at least better than Wolf Warrior 1!"

Nonsense, she just decided to participate in Wolf Warrior 2 because she knew it would make a name for herself in film and television.

"Please send me the address of the crew. I will apply for a visa while I go through the suspension of study procedures."

Wu Jin was overjoyed: "Okay, I'll send you the contract by the way!"

The filming location was Soweto, South Africa, the largest black gathering place in South Africa, with a population of about one million. It is said that the security is not very good.

This is just the first stop for filming. Later, we will go to the Johannesburg Lion Park in South Africa, Kenya, and then return to China.

In short, this filming journey will definitely not be easy, and the price quoted by Director Wu Jin to Luo Quan for the actors is indeed as he said, not very high, only 100,000 US dollars, equivalent to more than 700,000 RMB.

It was also his first time acting. Wen Xia earned more than 10 million yuan in just three months on the Ghost Blowing Lantern crew. The difference was almost double. The appearance fee from the Creation Camp was also tens of millions. It seems that Wolf Warrior 2 The crew's funds are indeed very tight.

If she is really short of money, she can consider investing. Now she has hundreds of millions of yuan in the bank earning current interest. If she takes it out and gives it a try, her bicycle can turn into a motorcycle in an instant!

Of course, we have to wait until South Africa sees the real situation before talking about it. If the family's funds are not particularly tight, it would not be a good idea to mention this.

The first movie in my life, Luo Quan, followed like this. Wolf Warrior 2 became a huge hit after its release, setting the box office record in domestic film history and triggering a nationwide viewing craze. I wonder if the legend can be rewritten in this life.

On the same day after making the call, Luo Quan applied to the school for a long leave. Generally speaking, the University of Tokyo is very cautious about students taking long leave, especially if it is for the reason of making a movie.

However, given that Luo Quan was so sensible in the previous incident with Eiji Iwasaki, Director Kawamura, who was in charge of this matter, gave Luo Quan the green light to complete the procedures. The application was approved the next day and he entered the holiday.

The South African Embassy went relatively smoothly. After all, she had just returned from the United States and was going to South Africa to shoot a movie, so she naturally didn't face too many difficulties.

Less than a week after returning from the United States, Luo Quan boarded a plane to a foreign country again.
