I'm the director, I'm not bad

Chapter 76 074. There is a big big wave

The crew of "Golden Armor" is a big and serious crew, with Zhang Yimou and Cheng Xiaodong in charge. The producer and Zhang Weiping, Zhang Yimou's long-time partner of the New Picture Film Company, is also here, but he is in charge of the administration. , Zhang Yimou was responsible for the shooting.

At this moment, except for Zhang Yimou, several people were sitting in the conference room, waiting for the actors to take the stage.

Try on clothes in the morning, and go to the palace to shoot posters in the afternoon.

Zhang Yimou, who is "double open", is obviously the busiest person.

Even when he walked in, it was dusty.

Xu Xin didn't know why Director Zhang was there, but he just looked at the frowning look on the other side, and couldn't guess whether he was busy or thinking.

And after he came, everyone in the conference room visibly cheered up.

Watch him sit in the middle of both the Olympic team and the production team.

Then, two people with cameras walked in at the door.

It seems that it is specially used for taking pictures.

After settling down, Cheng Xiaodong turned to Zhang Yimou and asked:
"Yimou, let's start?"

"Well, start."

Zhang Yimou still frowned and responded.

Then, following his orders, Xu Xin saw someone walking outside.Not long after, there were some footsteps in the corridor.

He was also a little curious. After all, this kind of court costume drama, let alone filming, was the first time that it was connected.

Stretching his head, he looked towards the door, wanting to see what kind of shape it was.

then……

When he saw the row of girls walking in, a sentence suddenly appeared in Xu Xin's mind...

"There's a huge wave of zombies..."

White.

Big.

deep.

For no reason, the big waves in light gauze quietly jumped into Xu Xin's mind among the dizzy Yingying Yanyan.

Dreams and reality entangled.

Antique and charming intertwined.

He subconsciously sat up straight, then took out a cigarette from his pocket, and lit one for himself.

"Whoo~~~~"

I didn't go to observe the style of the dynasty's clothes.

I didn't go to see how these actors look like, and I can't even figure out what these girls... are doing.

He felt dizzy.

Very dizzy.

feeling bad.

But the eyes still can't move.

I really can't move...

Then he suddenly remembered that he was watching a video on Tudou a few days ago, and saw a foreign news uploaded by a person.

It seems to be talking about a group of Korean female artists going to perform in the army, and then the group of buddies below are crying and howling in excitement following the song...

At that time, he didn't quite understand what these people were doing, as if he had never seen a woman before.

Is it a small country with few people...

But now, this news suddenly popped into his mind.

He even faintly felt that he was not much different from others.

A bunch of raccoon dogs.

It's so white...

grandma's...

Who designed this dress?
Or want to be emperor...

Seeing the blood all over his body rushing straight to the top of the sky.

Not only him, but to be honest, everyone in the Olympic team was obviously a little shocked...

As for why it was shocking, no one will surely describe it.

Just... shocking.

Some people have even begun to worry about scale for Zhang Yimou.

But no one said a word.

It's not my job, so I can't open my mouth at this time.

Unless someone asks.

And the clothes of the maids in this row are mainly gold. This large group of people stood on the podium in the conference room. Not to mention all the girls are good-looking. The most important thing is that this large group of people has nothing on their faces. Because of the clothes on his body, he looks shy or afraid to look up.

This large group of people, when facing the crew members in this room, each held their heads high...

It's like those models who run for the catwalk.

He raised his head like a wave of white swans.

Proud and confident.

Just to leave the deepest impression on those people in the audience.

And has this big wave of people succeeded?
Xu Xin didn't know what happened to the others.

He is so knowledgeable...

After Zhang Yimou finished reading it, he lowered his head and communicated with Cheng Xiaodong.

Because he was sitting far away, Xu Xin didn't hear clearly.

I just saw Cheng Xiaodong point his hand, as if he was looking for someone.

After finding it, he observed it for a while and nodded.

"Change batch~"

"..."

"..."

"..."

As soon as these words were uttered, the expressions of some people, including Xu Xin, suddenly became a little weird.

These words...why do they sound so familiar?
Xu Daqiang often said, and Xu Xin used to say...

Well, sure enough, Mr. Lu Xun was right.

Art is universal.

Immediately afterwards, these actors bowed politely and retreated, while a large group of people in blue palace attire who had been waiting at the door walked in...

……

There are three waves of people in palace costumes.

They are yellow, blue and orange respectively.

After these people left, when the dozen or so people in silver armor walked in, Xu Xin subconsciously showed disgust.

Then there is nothing to say.

Silver armor, golden armor, he lacks interest in looking at it...

This morning's Olympic team is equivalent to a spectator, watching the excitement.If you want to say that you expect them to provide any opinions, it is purely overthinking.

According to Xu Xin's understanding, this drama has already spent more than [-] million yuan.

And the price is obvious.

When auditioning for the gold and silver armor just now, Xu Xin heard Zhang Yimou say something to Cheng Xiaodong in front of those exquisitely shaped and not cheap gold armors:
"Is the three thousand sets ready?"

And Cheng Xiaodong nodded:

"It's all ready, it's in the warehouse."

Just talking to the two of them, you can probably know where the money is spent.

Not to mention the armor, let's calculate it based on the basically impossible "1000 yuan" set, and 300 sets are also [-] million.

The question is, is it possible for a set of 1000 yuan?

Obviously it is impossible.

So Xu Xin estimated that the production cost of these armors would be around tens of millions.

As for the clothes of the maids, let alone those clothes.

And these two billion yuan is a lot of money, and according to Xu Xin's understanding, this money seems to be solely owned by Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping's new picture business.

With more than two hundred million dollars spent, calling the big guy to come at this time is definitely not for people to come over to give opinions.

Others have spent so much money, you come here to make an opinion, do you think they will accept it?
Accepted, the previous preparations may be wasted.

That's a lot of money.

Not to mention that the change does not cost money?

And if you don't accept it, who can guarantee that the people who listen to it won't feel uncomfortable?

Is it worth it if you end up with a grudge or bear a grudge because of this matter?
Therefore, regardless of what they think in their hearts, the members of the Olympic team did not bring their mouths.

What's more... what level of director is Zhang Yimou?
People who dare to come here must have their own ideas.

Therefore, everyone is silent.

It's time to smoke, it's time to drink water.

Just look around.

Xu Xin also held this idea.

On the one hand, he knows his level, and on the other hand...he also understands this truth.

So obviously he thinks that if this look is released, Director Zhang will definitely be criticized by the art world. Although some people are suspected of picking up a bowl to eat and scolding their mothers after watching it... But the reputation will definitely not be good.

But he didn't say anything.

learn chant.

As the girl said, keep a humble heart and learn.

Learn what you want to learn, and actively abandon the dross.

Respect the choices of others and stick to your own.

As for what this behavior is called...

It's called Shen Jiang... Oh no, "Emotional Quotient".

And just when Xu Xin finally lost sight of the large group of people, and Xu Xin's mood returned to calm, suddenly, the door of the conference room was pushed open again.

Accompanied by five or six staff who opened the way in front, supported them, and bent over and held them up behind, a very familiar face appeared in front of everyone.

Brother Fa.

Fa Ge, who was shining golden, smiled and walked up to the podium.

At this moment, Xu Xin heard Wei Lanfang approach him and whispered:
"Xiao Xu, have you seen the clothes on Brother Fa?"

"Uh-huh."

Xu Xin nodded in a low voice:
"what happened?"

"It's all real gold. 18K gold, more than 100 million yuan for a piece of clothing. Director Zhang told me that a piece of clothing is nearly 80 catties."

"..."

Hearing Wei Lanfang's words, the corner of Xu Xin's mouth twitched...

Then he heard Brother Fa on the podium standing up straight with the help of everyone, combing his robes and skirts into a natural posture, and said to Zhang Yimou with a smile:
"The clothes are too heavy, so I'll come out first. Let everyone read it, and change quickly."

Zhang Yimou nodded, then suddenly turned around and said:
"What do you think?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

Everyone looked at each other and nodded in unison.

Indeed, if the big wave of people before made them "shocked", then the so-called experts will know if there is one as soon as they make a move.

As a well-known actor, when Fa Ge walked on stage, he could still see that he was overwhelmed.But now there is no need for anyone to support him, and instead of holding on to the clothes, he is full of vigor and energy.Obviously he didn't have the smile just now, but the majesty that belonged to the emperor on his body was just right.

For a second, be kind.

In the next second, the majesty belonging to the emperor suddenly emerged.

Xu Xin's eyes straightened immediately.

The contrast between the front and the back, and the transformation process of switching characters in an instant, amazed him all at once.

His previous knowledge of Fa Ge was "God of Gamblers" and "Prison Storm"... And if there is a specific impression, he thinks Fa Ge's smile is very interesting.

He can show the particularly natural and silly smile of "God of Gamblers", and he can also show the unruly smile of "The True Colors of Heroes", feeling that the other party's smile is very vivid.But now he finds out... In fact, Brother Fa is more manageable when he is serious than when he is smiling.

Obviously in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Xu Xin still felt that Fa Ge's bitter and vengeful appearance didn't go well with his chic...

Or if he doesn't smile, he always feels a little awkward.

But now... the precipitation of the years and the introverted self-prestige made Xu Xin completely see another him.

Not amazing.

Moreover, he couldn't see any appearance of carrying a weight of 80 jins on his body, and he was able to hold his breath all the time, and he could hold it well, showing the majesty of an emperor to the fullest!
Until Zhang Yimou nodded:

"Ok, Ok."

It was rare for him to use two overlapping words to express his approval.

And the moment he heard these words, the majesty of the emperor was gone.

Several assistants quickly stepped forward to support him.

Panting a few times with difficulty, Brother Fa asked in that Hong Kong-Taiwan accent:

"I'm sure I don't wear this dress many times, director. Wow, Hou Xiaoli~ Standing for a long time will break the sun~"

Zhang Yimou nodded:

"Don't worry, the time will definitely be arranged reasonably."

Everyone helped him to change clothes.

Then, a golden, noble and elegant figure with a trace of turbulence came into view.

Xu Xin really didn't expect Zhang Yimou to choose the same style of Queen's clothing as the big group of people just now for Gong Li.

This is the first time he saw the real person of Gong Li, the "Muse of Zhang Yimou" in the western population.

A big gold, graceful and elegant.

She seems to have entered the shooting state since she appeared on the stage, her face is full of majesty and nobility that belongs to the queen.

It is very eye-catching.

But at the same time, Xu Xin was puzzled...

He thought it was his own illusion.

Because... Gong Li's face was very cold.

It's not the kind of "coldness" that belongs to the queen, but a kind of pure "unhappy".

Xu Xin looked puzzled.

Why does this emotion arise?
In fact, to be honest, he really didn't think Gong Li was very beautiful.

Maybe it's because of stereotypes.

Or is it an aesthetic issue?
He really didn't have any special feelings for this sister.

Of course I have to admit that I have good acting skills... But since I was a child, I saw the first Gong Li's work in the video hall in the county town, that "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit" with a strong flavor of northern Shaanxi, and watched her wearing a headscarf , after wearing a floral padded jacket that is almost exactly the same as my second aunt's style.

Although he remembered the other party, from then on, Xu Xin had no chance to be beautiful with Gong Li.

Of course, this is just his personal feeling.

But subjectively, after seeing the other person's outfit...

The word "kitsch" inevitably comes to mind.

Unlike the big group of girls just now, those girls didn't give Xu Xin this feeling.But Gong Li is the actress!Regardless of whether Xu Xin thinks she is beautiful or not, or whether unqualified people think she is good-looking or not, but her contribution to the film and the recognition of fans have made Gong Li's status and acting skills recognized worldwide .

A proper member of the "Old Artists".

Even Xu Xin himself felt that the other party was not beautiful, but he still had a respect.

But this respect should be the grace of the years after the artist has achieved fame.

Instead of the...unhappy expression in front of you, and the "big" that this suit shows...

He couldn't accept it a little bit.

To put it a bit ashamed, I feel that my elders, such as aunts and aunts, are usually respected by the younger generations and behave dignifiedly and generously, but one day they suddenly appeared in sexy lingerie In everyone's eyes the same...

The shame of "how could you do such a thing as an elder" made him clenched his toes a little bit now.

so awkward.

Very awkward.

Although the other party appeared, entered the arena, and went on stage, the elegance and dignity of the mother of a country are understandable.

But as long as the eyes fall on the chest...

Xu Xin was awkward.

Too awkward.

The style of this show...doesn't fit the dynasty.

Why is this large group of people the same as European women in the Middle Ages?
Our country...Even if Director Zhang changed "Thunderstorm" to look like the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period...But, our cultural background is also doomed that it is impossible for someone to wear it like this in ancient times, right?
So far, he has been greatly shaken by Director Zhang's movie, which is estimated to cost over [-] million yuan.

He doesn't know whether to rush to the street or not to rush to the street.

But "being scolded" should be inevitable.

Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to Zhang Yimou.

He more or less understood Director Zhang's feelings.So inevitably, a ridiculous idea appeared in my mind.

Is this... ex-boyfriend's revenge on ex-girlfriend?
And that tinge of displeasure, was the ex-girlfriend paying back to the ex-boyfriend?
Shouldn't it be?

……

Finally, Xu Xin saw Jay Chou.

And to be honest, it was the same as when the fitting started.After watching the big wave of girls, the gold and silver armor could no longer interest him.

The same is true for Jay Chou.

Because Xu Xin could clearly observe that although the other party was no longer a movie beginner, he still seemed a little uneasy when he appeared in front of everyone wearing golden armor.

But...he looks pretty strong.

Why didn't you find it this morning?
Is it the type that looks thin when dressed, but fleshy when undressed?
Or is this armor set off?
……

In short, the audition passed the whole morning like this.

Xu Xin originally thought that the atmosphere of director Zhang's crew would be the same as that of the Olympic team. Although shrouded in high pressure, at least everyone can speak freely.

But it's not.

All morning, Zhang Yimou didn't say much.

I saw Fa Ge's three sets of clothes, Gong Li's four sets, Zhou Jielun's six sets, and Liu Ye's several sets Xu Xin can't remember.

Because after seeing it, he has already developed a kind of visual fatigue.

The tone of the whole "Golden Armor" is also clear.

gold.

Or gold.

Everyone's costumes, except for the blue and silver that are not wrapped, are all made of gold as the base, which really dazzled him a little.

During this period, Zhang Yimou said very little.

Frowning all the time.

Wait until Liu Ye's last set of clothes is changed and the fitting is over.

Collaborator Zhang Weiping asked:
"Yimou, how's it going? Which set will you choose for the poster this afternoon?"

"...Same as before. Dragon Robe, Fengxia, Jay Chou needs two sets of clothes, one set of golden armor and one set of silver armor."

After hearing Zhang Yimou's answer, the assistant quickly recorded these.

Zhang Weiping also nodded. Just as he was about to say something, Zhang Yimou suddenly turned his head and looked at the Olympic team who had been eating melons all morning:
"Let's have dinner together later and have a meeting. I just thought of an idea. Let's knock."

Zhang Wu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded:
"no problem."

"Well, let's go, Xiaodong, Guo Nan, you are in charge of coordinating. We will set off at about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and wait for the filming at dusk. If we are a little late for the meeting, you should leave first, and I will be sure later. I can make it."

He gave orders to Cheng Xiaodong and the assistant director Liu Guonan who was the director's first assistant.

The two also agreed.

Zhang Yimou waved his hand:

"Then let's go."

This is for the Olympic team.

Including Xu Xin, everyone stood up and followed him out.

Xu Xin followed at the end. When he left, he subconsciously glanced at the director team of "Golden Armor".

Everyone was packing up their things and preparing to leave.

At this time, he saw Zhang Weiping's frowning, which seemed to be very dissatisfied.

Take a step.

Then it went back to normal.

The people in this crew all seem to have a story to tell.

All the way out, I saw those Jay Chou's security team again.

When passing by them, Xu Xin squinted at them a few times.

……

At noon, everyone gathered in the box of the restaurant.

Including Cheng Xiaodong, who can barely be regarded as one of the action directors of the Olympic Games, the "Golden Armor" crew, no one is sitting in this room.

Just fourteen people, eating and chatting.

"What do you think of the 2.9-kilometer Palace Lantern? Isn't the time for the Olympic Games already set? The opening ceremony is at 8:08. The lights dim first. No one can see what it is, and then aerial photography, or find the angle in advance, and set up one angle after another. At the beginning... Shua! The palace lanterns are all on! The 2.9-kilometer palace lantern symbolizes the 29th session The Olympics! When the time comes, it will be projected onto the big screen in real time!"

This is Zhang Yimou's idea.

In the morning, I don't know what I saw to associate it with.

But this time everyone thinks the idea is good.

After all, every Olympic Games actually has a scene of paying tribute to the front.

And the broad mind of the Celestial Dynasty...

When Xu Xin thought of this, his eating movements froze suddenly.

He didn't know what happened to him either.

During this meal, there are always some words in my mind, such as being tolerant to all rivers, being broad-minded, and turbulent waves.

It made him very awkward.

It seems that there are no other words to describe it.

But Zhang Yimou's main idea is clear to him.

A tribute to the human Olympic process.

The 2.9-kilometer palace lantern is always bright, connecting the past and opening up the future.

In all honesty, it's a good suggestion...

But... a little small.

It doesn't seem to be able to reflect that kind of broad mind... Ah bah!
What the hell is wrong with me?
He couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and rolled his eyes to himself.

After Zhang Yimou noticed his actions, he suddenly said:

"Xiao Xu, what's the matter? What do you think?"

"...huh?...uh."

Xu Xin, who came back to his senses, saw that everyone at the table was looking at him, thought for a while, and said:

"Director Zhang, I think it's a little small."

After saying this, his expression became strange again.

"Small?"

Zhang Yimou frowned:

"why?"

"It feels like the number 2.9 kilometers has nothing to do with palace lanterns."

Forcibly suppressing the absurdity of the huge wave of zombies in the city, Xu Xin forced himself to return to that calm line of thinking.

"Think about it, 2.9 kilometers, besides palace lanterns, there are other things that can pay tribute. For example, ribbons, garlands, bouquets, and even a little exaggeration, you can learn the red makeup of the ancients, right?

...So I think we should put the 29th Olympic Games first, think about how we want to pay tribute, and then discuss palace lanterns or something else... Would it be appropriate?Although I don't know if you want to add elements of the Celestial Dynasty, but if you really want to add...then I think, instead of using palace lanterns, it is better to choose 29 historical buildings in Yanjing and light them up at the same time.

After all, the palace lantern is too small.For example, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the White Pagoda, the temples on the SJS side, the Taimiao, etc., one after another ancient buildings were lit up, and when the pictures were transmitted to the Bird’s Nest, the scene was completely dark.Then one lamp, two lamps, three lamps... After the last 29 lamps were turned on, the whole bird's nest was brightly lit...

Is that more shocking than palace lanterns?But there is also a problem, that is, these are ancient buildings, it is static, and it is not close to the movement of the Olympic Games... I have to think again.But I think if you follow your thinking, it is better to be a beautiful thing, moving between dynamic and static, to achieve the effect of the 29th Olympic Games, isn't it better? "

Calm thoughts returned to his mind, after Xu Xin finished speaking, he pondered for a while.

Well, it's ok.

The word "big" isn't used much except for "brilliantly shining".

"Between dynamic and static..."

Zhang Yimou repeated these words, and while he was still thinking, there was a knock on the door.

Someone opened the door and walked in.

It was Zhang Yimou's assistant named Shen.

"Hello teachers.

Assistant Shen first said hello, then walked quickly to Zhang Yimou, and after whispering a few words, Zhang Yimou frowned suddenly.

After thinking about it, he got up and said:

"You guys eat first, I'll go out for a while."

After speaking, he quickly got up and walked out with his assistant.

No one knew what happened.

but it does not matter.

The director is gone, but the idea remains.

"Xiao Xu's idea is not bad. Dynamic and static balance...It is also equivalent to our idea of ​​pursuing harmonious coexistence...Then what do you think now?"

"...Not yet."

"Let's talk about it... What if we zoomed in a bit, for example... 29 cities? Hey, 29 cities, starting from the first Olympic Games, how about it? For example, Greece, the Olympus St. Turn on the lights in the temple, and then go down to the next city... Every city has landmark buildings, right? The landmarks light up, and then pass down..."

Zhang Wu extended Xu Xin's thinking, but was immediately rejected by Ma Wen:

"There's a time difference, Director Zhang."

"Then what about recording and broadcasting? How about recording and broadcasting? Record the scenes in advance... You know, the audience in the Bird's Nest can't actually see these scenes. We broadcast them directly through the big screen above. The audience is the same, so it must be recorded in advance."

Fan Yue said.

Then everyone seemed to really think that this idea was feasible, and the discussion suddenly became heated.

Xu Xin naturally joined in.

No one asked Director Zhang why he went.

Instead, he started his own job.

Then, after discussing for about half an hour, Zhang Yimou came back.

It's just that his face is a little ugly...

The discussion fell silent...

But after he sat down again, it seemed nothing happened to him. He broke off a piece of steamed bun and put it in his mouth while saying:
"What are you talking about? Tell me."

In fact, everyone can see that after he went out, something definitely happened, which made him feel a little bad.

But if he doesn't tell, no one can ask him.

Including Zhang Wu.

So after hearing this sentence, I can only repeat everyone's ideas just now.

After almost sorting out the thoughts of everyone's discussion, he soon fell into deep thought.

The iconic brow furrowed again.

he was thinking.

Some of the people were thinking, and some were chatting.

Xu Xin is one of the "thinking" team.

Because...Although he also likes Director Zhang Wu's idea of ​​lighting up the landmark buildings of the 29th Olympic Games in the form of recording and broadcasting to represent the concept of inheritance.

But it still feels a little uncoordinated.

It's a bit too prominent for others and weakens Yanjing.

At the same time, what he was actually more curious about was...why did Mr. Zhang go out?

Why does the "Golden Armor" crew feel...the people in it are all complicated?

　As usual, ask for a monthly ticket at [-]! ! ! !
