Filming regulations

Night, Kyoto, Junhao Hotel. This is one of the closest hotels to the Film City, and also the largest.

Inside one of the hotel's lobbies, countless people gathered together, whispering to each other.

"Has everyone arrived?" Luo Xiao turned his head to look at Wang Bin, who had just walked back.

"Yes, the filming crew and the cast members have all arrived." Wang Bin nodded.

Hearing this, Luo Xiao turned to look at the crowd waiting in the lobby and slowly raised the microphone. "Everyone, please be quiet."

The voice instantly spread throughout the lobby. The people who were whispering inside the lobby quieted down one after another and looked up at Luo Xiao, who was standing at the very front of the lobby.

Seeing that the lobby had gradually become quiet, Luo Xiao continued speaking. "Now that all the members of our 'wandering blue star' crew have arrived, we will hold the opening ceremony tomorrow and then immediately dive into the new film's production."

"However, before the opening ceremony, I need to say a few words."

"First of all, for this filming, we have new members in both the production crew and the acting team, so I need to clarify some things before we start."

"The first thing is time management. Once filming begins, the filming schedule and timing for the next day will be released every night. Each department will have corresponding tasks, and I hope everyone can follow the schedule and work on time."

"Of course, if there are any special circumstances or accidents during the process, please communicate with the person in charge as soon as possible."

"The second point is the change in the filming environment. I believe those who participated in the filming of 'demon subduing record' know that the filming environment for 'demon subduing record' could be said to be relatively good among all film crews."

"However, when General Manager Chen came to inspect last time, he felt that everyone's filming environment was still not very good, and he made some changes accordingly."

"Last time, the 'demon subduing record' crew stayed inside the Film City. However, this time, General Manager Chen has given the order that all crew members will stay at the hotel, which is the very hotel we are standing in right now."

"We have already negotiated the hotel arrangements, so everyone can stay here until the end of this film's production."

"And the daily filming equipment will be transported back and forth by vehicles. For some larger equipment, we will hire laborers to move them. You just need to do your own jobs."

"Finally, there is the issue of filming. The new film has added many new actors. You are all from the Shanghai Theater Academy and have undergone systematic acting training, but you have no filming experience."

"So I will say the ugly things first: it's okay that you don't have filming experience; I allow it here, and I also allow you to make mistakes because you lack filming experience."

"But I have only one requirement here, and that is to be serious. I need you to treat every filming segment seriously and strive for excellence. Some shots might be filmed 10, 20, or even more times because they aren't perfect enough."

"I hope you accept this process. The reason why 'demon subduing record' was so successful has a lot to do with our attitude toward filming."

"…" "Alright, that is all I have to say. I hope everyone can keep it in mind."

After Luo Xiao finished speaking, without waiting for the reaction of the people in the lobby, he turned and left the hotel lobby directly. Having just arrived in Kyoto, he still had many other things to handle.

Wang Bin glanced at the crowd in the lobby and quickly followed him out. Inside the hotel lobby, a wave of discussion instantly erupted, with tones of amazement.

"Sister Xue, are we going to stay in this hotel for our future filming?" Several young men and women looked up at the hotel's layout, a flash of surprise in their eyes.

They hadn't expected that upon joining the crew, the production team would provide such a good hotel to stay in. They had heard from seniors who had previously joined crews that joining a film crew to shoot at the beginning was very tough. Both the accommodation environment and the filming environment were very poor.

After joining the crew, they were already prepared to suffer. After all, if one wants to become famous and become an excellent actor, how could one not endure hardship?

Therefore, even though Jiang Xue and the others had said that the environment and atmosphere of their crew were very good, they hadn't taken it seriously. In their hearts, this "good" was probably just relative. They estimated it was just a bit better than other crews, but now it seemed they had been completely wrong. This "good" was truly good!

Jiang Xue also stood there, stunned, and turned to look at Su Tang, who was standing to the side. At this moment, Su Tang was also looking at her with an expression of shock, her eyes filled with astonishment. The two looked at each other, and couldn't help but feel emotional; the filming treatment had improved again this time.

As expected, General Manager Chen's company is just different. Other companies are trying to figure out how to exploit their employees, while General Manager Chen's company is trying to figure out how to improve employee benefits.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xue turned to look at the group of Shanghai Theater Academy alumni behind her. She was familiar with some of these people, while others were unfamiliar, but as the person in charge on this side, she naturally had to say something.

"Everyone, gather in my Room later; I have some things to say." "Okay!" The group of Shanghai Theater Academy alumni nodded one after another.

Not long after, in a Room. Jiang Xue looked at the alumni who had come and organized her thoughts slightly.

"Gathering everyone here tonight is mainly to talk about some precautions for future filming."

"The first point is what General Manager Luo just mentioned, which is the issue of filming perfection. In our crew, there is no such thing as just getting by. Every scene needs to be perfected. If there are any flaws, it is possible that we will re-film it."

"I hope you have some mental preparation for this. Don't think that just because you have learned some professional acting in school, you will have no problems with acting. When it comes time to film, you will discover that you have many shortcomings."

"Everyone has shortcomings, but I hope that after you realize your own shortcomings, you can correct and improve them as soon as possible. Also, during the process of constant re-filming, I hope everyone will not have impatient emotions."

"The second point is the issue of memorizing the script. I don't need you to memorize all the lines in your script right now. The filming plot for the next day will be released every night. You must at least memorize the lines for the next day's filming plot; do not let the lines affect the filming progress."

"One more thing: if everyone performs well, you can join Lanpian Film and Television, and at that time, you will sign a contract just like mine."

"…" Jiang Xue detailed the filming matters in the Room. The Shanghai Theater Academy students standing in the Room listened with an open mind. They were not fools; they knew that participating in this film shoot was extremely rare.

After all, other students from the Shanghai Theater Academy, even if they could join a crew after graduation, would not have any important roles. But it was different here; every one of these people had a certain amount of screen time. How could they not cherish such a rare opportunity?

Moreover, joining Lanpian Film and Television in the end was also what they needed. After all, with the support of a film company, they wouldn't have to worry too much about not having roles to play in the future. Just like Jiang Xue and the others, after joining Lanpian Film and Television, after finishing one movie, they could film a second one. Furthermore, the last time Jiang Xue appeared, she was a supporting actress with a lot of screen time, and this time she was directly playing the female lead. Such a good thing, they naturally hoped it would fall upon them as well.
