Actors have no vacation

Chapter 53 The Crew

After the Spring Festival, "Police Story" will almost start filming.

Everyone in the crew had some signs of the Chinese New Year on their faces, and they gained a few pounds.Fortunately, the actors have all been told to maintain their shape and not relax too much at home, so they don't need to spend any more time losing weight.

Dozens of people held incense and held the opening ceremony.

Looking at these people next to him, Director Chen knew that they would live together for nearly two months and create a work together.

Because of Zhang Jingsheng's fame, many reporters came to the opening ceremony.

During the interview, among the cast of famous actors, the little-known Huang Lun stood out passively.

In fact, lack of fame is not a problem at all. There have been many cases where amateurs directly acted as the protagonists in a movie and finally won an award.But there is such a rumor circulating in the circle that the "Police Story" crew invited dozens of people to participate in the audition, and finally chose Huang Lun who was appointed by default, which is equivalent to calling people over and sneaking around.

Everyone is not a fresh graduate, so you can guess how Huang Lun got in.However, most of the reporters who came today usually have a good relationship with the producers, and the style of writing is relatively mild, and there will be no provocative and sharp problems, which will make today's start-up fade away.

After Zhang Jingsheng finished talking about his own questions, he was asked about his impression of Huang Lun. He talked about the trivial things about the previous martial arts training, saying that Huang Lun learned things quickly and was very serious. After the training, everyone left, only he was still there. Keep practicing there.

The other actors talked about their confidence in the movie. When the reporter mentioned Huang Lun, they all said good things and told a few short stories together.

Huang Lun knew very well when to keep a low profile, so he followed the prepared answer.Not too good to say, but not wrong either.

"We chose him because he has certain qualities that overlap with the role." Director Chen used this sentence as a response to the rumored rumors.

As for the truth, only the high-level inside them know.

Before getting to know President Tang, Huang Lun had the experience of making literary films, participated in film festivals with little reputation, but failed to go to the cinema.Director Chen found the source of the film and saw that Huang Lun in it was crying and running, looking at Baiyun and pretending to be melancholy. In the unintelligible plot, from beginning to end, he had a sad expression that could not find the meaning of survival.According to the producer's judgment, Huang Lun may have a slight advantage in the confusion and struggle of [Wu Ze in the daytime version].And what can Director Chen say about this, he can't say that he is dazed, probably because Huang Lun doesn't know what he is doing; the pain and struggle that Huang Lun endures are not as good as Huang Lun being led by the visiting class's President Tang The hand came deeply and painfully.

However, after more than ten years of practice, Chen Daotong is no longer a child.

They are engaged in art, and many people are too embarrassed to make money, so they can't make money.Interestingly, many people attribute their inability to make money entirely to their lack of face.Actually it's an illusion.I mistakenly think that just kneeling can make money, but kneeling is only the first step to making money, and there is still a long way to go.

Huang Lun's acting skills are not outstanding, but he is not hopelessly bad, and Director Chen doesn't mind his own business and does not criticize others' private affairs at will.He only cares about his work.

Director Chen decided to polish and train Huang Lun during the shooting process, focusing on the big and letting go of the small, focusing on a few highlights and making a few highlights.In this way, he won't drag him too far, and the audience won't unanimously scold him for his poor acting skills after watching the movie.

Ups and downs, no lining can not rise.Sometimes a broken but wonderful piece is better than a complete but mediocre thing.

The producer of the film is a good talker, allowing Director Chen to spend more time elaborating and polishing Huang Lun's acting skills in several major scenes, but correspondingly, other parts must be shot more efficiently.

Director Chen is not worried about this, because he has Zhang Jingsheng.

The time wasted on Huang Lun can be rushed back to Zhang Jingsheng.

Zhang Jingsheng is an old actor. He is very good at both literary and martial arts. The character [Zhang Jiaju] has a lot of ups and downs in the play, and it is difficult to act, but Zhang Jingsheng cannot help it.

When old actors act at this age, they will basically be ingenious when acting.Because of the effective performance experience accumulated over the years, they have been clear about how to get applause and praise, and how to win awards.

But Zhang Jingsheng is different. As a talented player like him, as long as he performs, the people watching can sink into another world, and it will not make people feel that [he is acting], and the strength is just right.

Huang Lun had to play against Zhang Jingsheng in several flashing scenes.Even if Zhang Jingsheng was acting, Director Chen was worried that Huang Lun would be crushed into a puddle of mud.So after training and before the Spring Festival, he has been keeping in touch with Huang Lun, guiding him to practice through video, telling him how to play Wu Ze well and find his own characteristics.

Telling Huang Lun about Guan Chen's understanding of the role is equivalent to harming him.Guan Chen, like Zhang Jingsheng, was born to eat acting, and their experience may not be applicable to ordinary actors.It's like asking an ordinary person to ask a good-looking person how to put on makeup, but essentially asking the wrong person.

When Director Chen was teaching Huang Lun, he would only tell him what to do, how to put his hands, and where to look.

Cinema is the director's art.Let Huang Lun perform in a completely unconscious state, and then capture it on the camera. It is almost enough for Director Chen. There is no need to brutally peel off his psychological layers, break him and tell him how to perform. ——This is what the director of literary films likes to do.

On the first day of the show, in order to gain a lot of luck and increase everyone's confidence, the selection of the scenes to shoot was relatively simple.The filming place is a quiet villa area, where the male protagonist's fiancee lives here, and the villain and the decent have all played roles here.

When the filming began, the producer and producer put on headphones and sat behind Director Chen to watch him direct the play.

Director Chen is also under pressure, wielding an artifact like Zhang Jingsheng is a rare experience for him, not to mention Zhang Jingsheng himself has been a director. If the director cannot convince the actors, the right to speak will be taken away. Not conducive to subsequent work.

Fortunately, Director Chen showed his ability to prove that he would not spoil the script and actors, and the producers did not find the wrong person.The staff dispersed nonchalantly and counted him passing the first test.

Zhang Jingsheng is very efficient. After several adjustments, he probably knows what Director Chen wants and is very smart.

Director Chen was full of praise, but he didn't dare to boast too much.

The heroine and the second male didn't step in, and the team got on the right track while running in.

At the end of the day's shooting, Director Chen was in a good mood as if the chef got a pile of top-quality ingredients and was confident to make a good dish.

Of course, the premise is that Huang Lun's ingredients are also smoothly integrated into the dish.

Huang Lun's play was put on the second day.

At the end of work, Director Chen wanted to chat with Huang Lun about tomorrow's play, but couldn't find anyone else.I asked the drama manager, and they said they were picked up.

Being picked up means being picked up by President Tang.

This happened several times during training in Qiong Province.

Director Chen had no choice but to finish dinner, go back to the hotel room, have a meeting with the camera lights and the others, and plan the storyboards to be used for tomorrow's shooting.

After a few hours, Director Chen rubbed his neck to rest and took out his mobile phone.I found that my Weibo account was circled several times.Click on Weibo and find that some stars have forwarded something, saying or expecting or wishing.

It turned out that the movie "Police Story" was on the hot search.Although the ranking is very low, it is still on the top.

Actually this is what it should be.

Since Zhang Jingsheng became the director, fans have been worried that he will no longer act.Now Zhang Jingsheng is acting again, and it's still a big investment police and bandit action movie. It is normal for everyone to send the news of the startup to the hot search, and it is also normal for the publisher to spend a lot of effort to get it on the hot search.

Chen Dao clicked into the topic, which naturally mentioned Zhang Jingsheng the most times, and the other actors were mentioned in descending order of popularity.

Somewhat strangely, Director Chen found that Huang Lun was mentioned at an unexpectedly high frequency.

Part of it is the content of today's interview, which is not interesting; the other part is a marketing account detailing Huang Lun's acting career and introducing the general background.Then some people who claimed to be Huang Lun's classmates went to the [Vine Group] to reveal Huang Lun's previous appearance and love history.

Actors fall in love, this is not a serious matter.The revelations of those "informers" were not particularly discredited, nor did they mention President Tang, nor did they show other suspicious and vague hints.The classmates who broke the news seemed to be Huang Lun's good friends. In an admirable and friendly tone, they talked about Huang Lun's romantic and considerate details.Then the image of an amorous prodigal son appeared on the paper.

Coupled with Huang Lun's face, he will soon have a group of fans.

Director Chen felt a little puzzled. He wondered if this was the means of Huang Lun's company. The action was quite fast.

Returning to the hot search list, Director Chen suddenly caught a glimpse of a strangely-looking title, called: [It turned out to be Shen He].

　I am dizzy.I thought it was on the shelves at [-]:[-] today, but the editor told me that it was [-]:[-] noon...

　　In addition, I would like to thank the big guy [Qingquan Liuxiang] for his book promotion, his "Master of the Spirits", an awesome Pokémon colleague, if you are interested, you can go and see it.
