I'm a movie star on earth

Chapter 40 "The Legend of Chu and Han" starts

The crew of "Legend of Chu and Han" stayed in the Marriott Hotel in a mighty manner. Of course, more than 1000 people couldn't all come to Hengdian. Gao Xixi divided the crew into three, and he led the A group, and the two assistant directors led the BC group to shoot separately.

At the Marriott Hotel, Li He met Gao Xixi, and Gao Xixi looked haggard compared to the first time they met.

"Director Gao, haven't you rested recently?" Li He asked with concern.

Gao Xixi spread her hands and said, "There is no way, the project preparation is complicated, and I, the director, have to check it out, so I can't rest in peace."

"I thought I was already dedicated enough, but after seeing you, Director Gao, I realized that I was far behind." Li He admired.

"No, I'm just doing my job." Gao Xixi smiled and said, "The actors are all here, let's go to a meeting together!"

"OK, let's go..."

In a meeting room on the third floor of the Marriott Hotel, several star actors who had already arrived were whispering to each other. When they saw Gao Xixi leading a young man in, they quickly stood up and said hello.

Gao Xixi signaled everyone to sit down, and then introduced Li He: "This is Li He, the actor who plays Hu Hai."

Li He bowed and said: "Hello, teachers, my name is Li He, and I play the role of Hu Hai in the play."

Although Li He was young, the people present did not despise him because of his age.Being able to play an important role in this big project is either due to background or strong ability.Those who can reach this position are all human beings, and no one is so stupid as to offend others for no reason.

So everyone greeted Li Hyuk with a smile, and then sat next to him under the greeting of actor Xu Guangwen who played Yuan Shao in "New Three Kingdoms".

"We all know each other, let's get acquainted as soon as possible, Hai Lin, I leave this to you." Gao Xixi said to the long-haired, slightly fat Wang Hailin.

Wang Hailin nodded and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me."

Gao Xixi turned around and went to work on other things, leaving screenwriter Wang Hailin and the leading actors to read the script together.

Script reading is a process for actors to get familiar with the script. In the past, many crews would hold such activities to deepen the running-in between actors and crew.At that time, there were many good actors, and they were willing to cooperate with the work of the crew.

But now the entertainment industry is becoming more and more impetuous, and there are very few crews who stick to this tradition.

After reading the script for a few days, Li Hyuk's first impression of the script was that it had too many flaws.Several times I wanted to open my mouth to make suggestions, but seeing that the male lead Chen Daoming and the other actors had no objections, Li He held back thinking about his status.

He's not a stunned young man who just popped out for no reason, that's called a fool.

Finally one day, Li He couldn't bear it any longer, he approached the screenwriter Wang Hailin in private, and said cryptically, "Wang Editor, I have a few questions to ask you."

Wang Hailin was about to go back to rest, when he heard this, he stopped in his tracks: "You said..."

Li He chose his words carefully, and asked Wang Hailin, "I want to ask, what do you usually do when writing scripts?"

Wang Hailin smiled and said, "What? Are you interested in script writing?"

"No, no, I'm just curious, ask." Li He waved his hand.

"Okay, I'll just tell you briefly, let's go over there and do it." Wang Hailin was optimistic about Li He, who was eager to learn, and suddenly had an urge to be a teacher.

The two sat down at the tea bar, ordered two cups of tea, and continued to chat.

"Generally speaking, any text creation is divided into three stages, the beginning, the middle and the end, which is commonly known as the three-act paradigm, which was first proposed by the ancient Greek playwright Aristotle..." Wang Hailin said Come on.

He spoke vividly and interestingly, and Li Hyuk listened with great interest.After a brief understanding of script creation, Li He judged that this Wang Hailin is a very high-level screenwriter.It's just that such a screenwriter, why would he write "Legend of Chu and Han" whose quality can only be said to be average!

When Li He cryptically raised this question, Wang Hailin's expression became a little complicated.

"This matter is complicated to say. In fact, I created this script a long time ago. It was not called this name at that time. It was called "Liu Bang Biography"." Wang Hailin said.

"And then?" Li He asked curiously.

"Later, Director Gao wanted to shoot the theme of Chu and Han. He bought a script himself, but Chen Daoming was not satisfied after reading it, so he recommended my version to Director Gao. The script was renamed "Legend of Chu and Han."

"Did the high-level guide not use your version?"

"used……"

"Uh..." Li He's tone faltered: "Then what?"

"How can it be written like this?" Wang Hailin smiled helplessly: "Because the two editions of the high-level guide are used together, whichever segment takes the longest time can be used."

Li Heren is stupid, there is such an operation?The two scripts are written differently. The first scene is filmed this way, and the latter scene is filmed this way, so the plot is not divided?

A famous director like Gao Dao would also make this kind of mistake?

After listening to Wang Hailin's explanation, Li He only felt that he had fallen into a trap.It's a pity that we can't go back. Whether we like it or not, the crew of "Legend of Chu and Han" finally started as scheduled in the cold spring of March.

It was the first time for Li Hyuk to experience the opening ceremony. When he joined "The Palace" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan", they had already been filming for a long time.

Strange is very strange, but what puzzled Li He was why he had to worship God when turning on the machine, and he was worshiping Guan Gong.

Guan Gong and Li He knew that during the Three Kingdoms period, the general of the Shu Han Dynasty was gradually deified, and it was most popular among the southeast coast generation, especially the black forces on Hong Kong Island, to worship Guan Gong.

Later, the black forces in Hong Kong Island fully entered the Hong Kong Island film circle, and the ceremony of worshiping Guan Gong became popular among Hong Kong Island film crews.Over the years, as directors from Hong Kong have been going north, and there has been cooperation between the mainland and Hong Kong, worshiping God and Guan Gong has gradually become popular in mainland film crews.

After the opening ceremony, the crew just took a simple shot and announced that "Legend of Chu and Han" has officially entered the shooting stage.

The first day was easy. After work was over, everyone went straight to the hotel they had booked for a kick-off banquet.Because I have to get up early for work the next day, I stopped drinking. Everyone just ate and chatted, and they didn't leave until very late.

The crew arranged an assistant for Li He, but Li He refused, and his own small team was still in charge.

Back in the hotel room, Qian Duoduo had already listed Li Hyuk's filming plans for the next week.

"This is the result of the communication between the production team and the director team. Director Gao decided to give priority to shooting your scenes." Qian Duoduo handed the production schedule to Li He.

Li He has seen it before, and he can roughly understand it. It says that he has two literary and opera performances tomorrow, and he will be filming in Group A. The time will be about one and a half hours, provided everything goes well.

Each scene strictly stipulates the shooting time, shooting scale, and who will participate, etc. It can be said that it is a fairly precise schedule.

However, artistic creation is often not all about precision, and often requires the director and actors to perform on the spot.What is photographed one by one is called a journal, not artistic creation.

Therefore, filming is a rigorous and complex project, and it is also a whimsical creative journey.

　I was so exhausted today, I really wanted to rush out and sing "Happy Breakup" to the sweet couple, but thinking about it, I still need the job of pastry chef, so I can only endure it.

　　I wonder if everyone is like me, Valentine's Day is spent at work...
