I became a scandal heroine overnight

Chapter 805 The official start of filming

Two days before the filming started, Jin Zhulin suddenly disappeared.

Brirange and Tim Lange finally officially introduced the new girl to everyone.

"Yoo Hee," Brirange said, "from Korea."

Liu Xi is very thin and tall, she should be the thinnest and tallest among all the actresses.

Brirange said: "Yoo Hee was a model before and has no filming experience, but has learned martial arts."

Together with everyone, Zhou Yun introduced himself to Liu Xi.

Unlike Jin Zhulin, Liu Xi's personality seems to be cooler.

When she smiled, it didn't seem like she was really laughing, there was a very obvious sense of indifference.

After greeting her, Nakajima Ho whispered to her, "I think Liu Xi is more difficult to get in touch with."

She felt that Tim Lange deliberately explained to everyone in this scene a little more detail.

Tim Lange directly started to tell them about the movement of the camera later, telling everyone how the camera will cut in, when is the time for each actor to show his face, and he hopes to be the main camera on a certain actor What kind of things does the actor want to give when it comes to filming?Besides this, there are several other cameras filming from different angles.

Tim Lange nodded, his eyes sparkling.

Zhou Yun even saw him pondering what angle to hold his fist.

She thought Tim Lange had already seen the movie.

Hugh Redman asked, "Shall we have a drink?"

Studio shot, green screen.

It is absolutely impossible to save on this.

Of course, after watching "One Mountain, Two Tigers" and "Four Killers", many viewers will not be particularly impressed with Zhou Yun. To be honest, she is not an absolute leading role in these two films.

Her posture seemed a little nervous and uneasy, and there was guard in her eyes.

She said: "I don't have any share in "Killing Song", and it doesn't make sense for me to stay here."

Zhou Yun went upstairs, took a shower, dried his hair, and got ready for bed.

With so many actors on and off the whole crew, a lot of money will be spent on costumes.

When she was filming "The Female Killer", she only had a very small number of green screen scenes, and most of them were shot on location.

Zhou Lan: Oh, okay, since you said that, let's be kind.

Including the domestic box office, the global box office of these two films has exceeded [-] million US dollars.

"You're right," said Tim Lange. "That's great! I like how you understand it! You understand it almost exactly as I do!"

Zhou Yun watched Jin Zhulin and the others leave and walked out of the hotel gate, feeling a little helpless and sad in his heart.

In this scene, Zhou Yun was accidentally involved in this battle royale game. He met other players in this game hall, choking with each other, and undercurrents surged.

"Wait a moment where each of us is standing, you can show everyone." Tim Lange said to his assistant director.

In the past, Zhou Yun's name was always preceded by works such as "Days", "Behind the Scenes" and "Deep Sea". This is also Zhou Yun's most famous film in overseas film circles, and now she also has representative works in the hearts of mainstream audiences.

Tim Lange said, "So what do you think about your alliance with Hugh Redman in this movie?"

But it's also a necessary expense.

She spent so much hard work, persistence, and recovery, but in the end she still didn't persevere, and she couldn't act in this movie in the end.

If Xindun wants to develop the global box office market, it is not enough to rely on movies, and it also needs movie stars.

Zhou Yun said: "No, he and I in the movie are a process of constantly testing each other, guarding against each other and acting. I think it is very helpful for us to keep acting in this state without communicating with him first."

After all, "Killing Song" is an action movie, and her previous serious modern action movie is "One Mountain Two Tigers".

This is Zhou Yun's first time working in such a large studio.

"Hmm." Zhou Yun asked, "Why did you go there?"

Tim Lange said immediately: "Before Zhou Yun came in, each of you had your own things to do, so the speed of reaction cannot be so uniform."

Zhou Yun was very surprised, and asked: How did you ask someone from the distribution company to meet?
This has nothing to do with Zhou Lan's work.

"Yes, I don't think a person can't want to kill someone while liking her at the same time." Zhou Yun said, "Hugh Redman wants to form an alliance with me. On the one hand, he likes me. On the other hand, I am A girl, if I form an alliance with him, I can suppress others in the early stage. After killing everyone else, he is 1V1 with me. In his eyes, he has a greater chance of winning, and the other has a strong fighting power The decisive battle between boys should be big. This is how I understand it. All the tenderness and protection he showed me in the front were to soften my guard against him. The moment I fell in love with him, he would kill me if he wanted to kill me. It’s effortless.”

Jin Zhulin nodded, she still had a brace on her leg and was on crutches.

Zhou Yun: It's not good to fool people, it's not kind.

For some actors, it doesn't matter what the opponent's performance is, and it doesn't affect his own performance.

Start playing.

And, there's such a big green screen.

Zhou Yun followed.

At present, the domestic distribution in Asian countries is doing well, but the European and American countries are lacking a little. This is also related to their already agreed concept that Chinese movies, except for action movies and martial arts movies, cannot sell well at the box office.But no matter what, first of all, Chinese-language movies must always be shown outside, so as to change from quantitative to qualitative, instead of being shown half-deadly in double-digit theaters and showing international releases under a guise.

Jin Zhulin smiled and nodded.

Zhou Yun replied: Then respect Liu Qidong's opinion, and please appease Lu Zhongting.

Some micro-expressions.

"Hi, Xiaoyun." Hugh Redman came over and greeted her with a smile on his face. "How are you feeling today? Our scene will start shooting soon."

"Huh? Is that Jin Zhulin?" Suddenly, Hugh Redman appeared beside her.

Zhou Yun likes the texture of these details very much.

Jin Zhulin's expression was very disappointed, and her mood was also low.

The first scene was a large group scene with more than a dozen actors present, and the challenge was big enough.

The biggest problem with shooting large groups is scheduling.

Zhou Yun didn't think much about it.At this time, Jin Zhulin must be very uncomfortable.No matter what she is, Zhou Yun can accept it.

Zhou Yun took a deep breath, walked over, with a smile on his face, and asked, "Are you going back now?"

"Have you spoken to Hugh Redman?" Tim Langley asked.

Zhou Lan: Besides, it is always a good thing that we know more people. Who knows when we will need help from others in the future.

This is just her costume as an actor.

Tim Lange told Zhou Yun that she would spend almost [-] US dollars for a complete set of clothes, and the clothing team needed to prepare at least five sets of bases for her to wear and replace.In addition to these five sets of fine workmanship, we also need to prepare relatively less fine sets, which are also many sets.

She was a little moved.

Zhou Yun: Liu Qidong is a new director, and he doesn't understand many things. Please help me a little bit. If there is anything that needs a contact person and I need to help, just tell me.

But for some actors, the performance of the opponent actor largely determines his own performance status.

I don't know if she didn't look at her phone or didn't want to reply.

"I've been filming for so long, and you're the first actor to say these things to me before filming."

Tim Lange said that because the background of "Killing Song" is not in modern times, it is difficult to shoot in real scene, so he can only set up a real scene in front of a green screen, and shoot in a combination of the two.

Zhou Yun wondered if he should contact Jin Zhulin.

"It's kind of gray." Zhou Yun said, "I thought it was just for you, didn't I?"

Zhou Yun said: "It doesn't matter, we all film together and cooperate well."

But anyway, both films have topped $4000 million overseas, which is a pretty impressive figure.

Zhou Yun: "It's a pity."

This makes everyone's status more real.

Tim Lange asked her how she understood the role.

Zhou Yun stood where he was and called her.

Jin Zhulin did not reply for a long time.

He is acting in a state of arrogance and indifference.

Many actors have no professional acting experience, but they can contribute very wonderful performances.

It's just a very small role that doesn't even have any lines, but he treats it with care.

Domestic films need to go out and be recognized internationally, and channels are too much needed.

A script story is actually just a story.What is the character of each character and what purpose does each action have? Different people have different understandings.On the premise of not affecting the entire plot and the logic of the characters, how to deal with a character at a higher level is a test for both the director and the actors.

Tim Lange came over and told Zhou Yun what to shoot later.

For her, good rival actors will stimulate her creative desire, but if the rival actors are not very good, she also knows how to create her own characters.

The profession of actors is so cruel, no matter who they are, they can actually be replaced.

Zhou Yun came to the hall.

On the day that "Killing Song" officially started filming, the first scene was the scene where everyone met for the first time in the movie.

"He likes me." Zhou Yun said very confidently, "It must be because he likes me that he wants to form an alliance with me."

"Calm, restrained, smart, decisive." Tim Lange said, "This is what I like most about your character."

Zhou Yun: "A little excited."

When you are at the top, there are people everywhere trying to replace you.

Zhou Lan: I'm afraid that if they know that you are not the starring role, but only a producer, they won't want to come so much.

"I'm really sorry, thank you." She said suddenly.

"Okay, see you then," she said.

The main camera follows Zhou Yun's perspective.

"Ah."

In the past few days after starting training, Zhou Yun went to bed early every night.The main reason is that the training is too tiring, Zhou Yun basically feels very sleepy after taking a bath.

When he came back after confirming, the assistant director also explained everything to them.

……

They do not have stable international channels, so they can only rely on themselves to develop one place at a time.

"I'm tired." Zhou Yun smiled at the person, "Next time."

Zhou Yun didn't expect Zhou Lan to think of something so far away.

Zhou Yun said: "I hope we can create a good movie."

Hugh Redman picked up the phone and took a picture of himself, "Oh, no, I don't know how it got there, I have to find someone to deal with it."

Hugh Redman nodded and said, "We will definitely be able to make this movie well."

This scene is to follow Zhou Yun into this hall, and then observe everyone from Zhou Yun's perspective.

There are only a few steps, and there is still a scene passing through the corridor ahead. Tim Lange didn't plan to shoot it now, so it was omitted.

And when shooting the fighting scenes later, the costume team also prepared a lot of costumes for her that were not so finely crafted and could only be used for medium and long-range shots.If all of them use the best workmanship, the cost will rise gradually, and it is not enough for Zhou Yunhuohuo, and fighting is the most expensive thing to wear.

He and Zhou Yun came to the hall entrance together.

Tim Lange broke the speech, and after speaking for about 10 minutes, he said: "Then let's go for a walk first."

Xindun put a lot of effort into the global distribution of "Four Killers" and "One Mountain, Two Tigers". Of course, this is also related to the subject matter of the film.There is still a specific market for Chinese-language action movies and martial arts movies.

I got along with each other for a few days before, got to know each other, and added each other as friends on social platforms.

As a result, at the hotel entrance, I saw Jin Zhulin and her assistant carrying luggage and preparing to leave.

How to make a movie actually depends not only on the ideas of the main creators, but also on the constraints of the real environment and conditions.

Tim Lange came to discuss the role she was going to play with Zhou Yun.

Zhou Yun is the most recognized movie star in this period.

"No, I just came back from the training ground, I went up first." Zhou Yun said.

The others turned their heads to look at her at the same time.

"Well, I believe it." Zhou Yun asked, "What is that thing on your forehead?"

He left in a hurry.

Tim Lange arranged for everyone what to do at the moment.

Zhou Yun sat on the bed, holding his mobile phone to reply some messages that had not been replied yet.

For a scene without a fighting scene like today, the costume designer brought her a very delicate set.

Zhou Yun nodded and said: "I really understand that, but in fact, when Hugh Redman approached me with such a purpose, I also understood his purpose from the very beginning, and began to prepare to fight back at the last moment. "

Hugh Redman said, "What?"

Zhou Yun said: "Tim, if you have any innovative ideas, you can tell me directly. Don't worry that I have opinions or can't realize it. I will fully cooperate with you. If you really can't do it, I will directly Let me tell you, I am afraid that the director will not tell me the truth because of various scruples, I am an actor who wants to hear the truth, do you understand?"

In the movie, this scene is also the first appearance of many actors.

The production cost of "Killing Song" is only so much money, and it is impossible to realize all the ideas.

Zhou Lan: Okay, I know. You are filming well over there. I will go there next week and see you again. I have arranged an appointment with people from two distribution companies over there.

His whole body entered the performance situation, turned his head and glanced at her, and then walked straight forward.

Zhou Yun's costumes in the movie have been revised many rounds.Because it is necessary to combine beauty and ease of movement.Zhou Yun was going to fight many people in the movie wearing this suit.

Everyone took the trouble to cooperate with everyone to come over and over again.

She looked up and saw Zhou Yun, and was taken aback for a moment.

The assistant director arranged for the actors to stand in their positions, and then began to tell them about the movement of the characters.

Of course, this is not a problem at all for an experienced and senior director like Tim Lange.

This scene took almost an hour just to rehearse.

that is the truth.

Zhou Yun: "There will be good opportunities in the future, let's cooperate again."

Jin Zhulin hummed.

Tim Lange laughed.

Zhou Yun used to rely a lot on the performances of his rival actors, but now he doesn't rely so much.

Zhou Yun said: "She is not a girl who actively wanted to enter this game, but because of an accident, she had to be involved in this battle royale, and she could only try to keep herself alive, so in the entire first half, she She didn't take the initiative to hurt others, but passively defended herself when she was actively attacked by others. Later, she realized that everyone in this game was trying their best to kill her. If she didn't take the initiative to attack, She couldn't survive by herself. At this time, in order to protect herself, she finally started to attack others. For her, many actions in this game were forced by the environment and the situation, not by herself. character, so she has a lot of inner struggles, and when her emotions are getting more and more out of control."

She was amazed.

Zhou Yun thought for a while, and then sent a message to Jin Zhulin: Hey, Zhulin, I am very sorry that we did not succeed in cooperating with you this time. I hope we will have another opportunity to cooperate together next time.

Of course Zhou Yun respected their opinions on filming.

And as the overseas performance is getting better and better, Zhou Yun's name has also appeared in more and more media reports in other countries.

What Zhou Yun regrets is Jin Zhulin.

"But this game is doomed, and only one person can survive in the end." Tim Lange said, "Do you think he would like someone in this situation?"

This is also the reason why Yao Yuanfeng is becoming more and more polite to Zhou Yun and paying more and more attention to him.

When the overseas box office of the two films exceeded tens of millions of dollars, a round of publicity reports had already been made in China.

"I swam in the hotel's swimming pool just now." Hugh Redman replied, "Have you been there? The swimming pool here is not bad."

"Ok."

Zhou Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Nakajima Ho, for example, was cleaning her dagger.

Zhou Lan: Well, for the actors, I have already sent the contracts to their companies, and they are in the process. It should not be a big problem. On the other hand, the news of this movie has spread, and many people have contacted them, expressing their interest. To get involved, you say, shall I tell them you won't be starring in this movie?
Zhou Yun: Tell them, if there is a suitable actor, Liu Qidong is also willing, they are willing to act, why not agree, as long as it does not exceed the budget.

Zhou Lan told her that "Son of Prophecy" had already started, Liu Qidong met Huang Zicheng and Lu Zhongting, and preferred Huang Zicheng.

Tim Lange's eyes lit up, and he said, "Wow, Xiaoyun, you actually understand the role of Hugh Redman so well."

"I understand, I hope that after you get to know me, I won't leave you with such an impression." Zhou Yun smiled, "But I'm really a bit of a person, if I can't understand something, I may not be able to communicate with you immediately. Depending on your thinking and rhythm, in that case, it is difficult for me to give you the desired effect, I need you to give me more explanations, more guidance, please believe me, I will never deliberately embarrass you , or do not cooperate with you, if there is friction, it is really that I cannot understand you, and it requires us to spend more time to overcome it together."

Zhou Yun noticed that he had been adjusting his expression on the phone.

"Of course, I already feel it." Tim Lange said, "You really gave me a lot of surprises. I didn't work with actors from other countries before, because people in each country have different habits. , I have worked with one of your Chinese actors before. To be honest, I didn’t cooperate very well. I don’t understand why the producer chose such an actor. They told me later that it was because this actor is very popular in your China. I was in Before I met you, I knew that you were different from that actor. I had seen your works and you are a very capable actor, but when they told me that you were the top female star in China, I was worried. Woke up, afraid that you would be arrogant and difficult to cooperate with, I'm telling the truth, before I met you, I was really worried about you."

Now that Jin Zhulin has just left the crew, she can't act as if nothing happened, right?

These things cannot be presented in the script, and can only be adjusted by the director on the spot.

After chatting with Tim Lange, Zhou Yun returned to the hotel.

Zhou Lan said: To prepare for the future, literary and artistic films must have an international market, otherwise if they are placed in the domestic market, there is a high probability of losing money. Don’t you want to invest in some literary and artistic films in the future?Although your goal is not to make money, if you don't lose money, you don't lose money.

You are always in danger.

Zhou Yun put on her tights and came to the set.

Tim Lange suddenly went to watch "One Mountain, Two Tigers", and when he came back, he said to Zhou Yun: "You are so attractive in this movie, you are sexy and you can fight."

In the movie, the actor who plays the staff who leads Zhou Yun into this hall is an unknown young actor.He was tall and straight, in uniform, but actually handsome.

Liu Xi has never acted before, which is not unusual in the film industry.

Tim Lange went to confirm things on the photography side.

When he talks to actors, he not only talks about the present, but also the character, past, and more detailed information of the character.

In this process, the actors' understanding of their characters will be corrected by the director's ideas.

This is a very smart approach.

Sharpening knives does not miss woodcutters.
