This actor wants to pay more

Chapter 398 Ding Xiu plays himself

Before a movie is released, no one knows whether it can make money or not. The star bonus can only be the early drainage. If the box office depends solely on the stars, Zhou Runfa will not be called a box office poison.

On the set, Ding Xiu gave red envelopes to the actors one by one.

Those who received the red envelopes smiled and expressed their thanks.

"Thank you Brother Xiu."

"Thank you Director Ding."

"Thank you Director Ding."

"Director Ding, where's my red envelope?"

At the end of the distribution, Gao Yuanyuan mischievously reached out to ask Ding Xiu for a red envelope.

She was filming here in Hengdian, and when Ding Xiu and his crew came over, she joined in the fun.

Ding Xiu gave her a slap on the palm of his hand, and said angrily, "No."

Gao Yuanyuan was upset: "Why do they have it, but I don't."

"Because you are not an actor in my crew."

"I can be too."

Ding Xiu rolled his eyes: "Don't make trouble, I don't have a role for you."

Xiuchundao is a play of the hero, and 80.00% of the scenes are played by Shen Lian, Lu Jianxing, and Jin Yichuan.

Even the heroine Zhou Miaotong didn't have many scenes.

What can Gao Yuanyuan do when she comes here?
Acting as a little maid, maid?
Not realistic.

"Just arrange a trick for me." Gao Yuanyuan thought for a while and said, "It's best to have a martial arts scene, one that goes offline after one scene."

Her schedule was tight, Ding Xiu wanted to give her an important role and she didn't have time to act.

It's hard for her man to become a director, and she can't justify not supporting anything, and she supports it by coming here to play a cameo.

Ding Xiu was a little embarrassed, touched his chin and said, "There is a fighting scene that can be adjusted at the Siege of Wei Zhongxian. Then I will get you a role of a woman disguised as a man. Do you know swordsmanship?"

"Yes, you forgot, I filmed Yi Tian Tu Long Ji."

Gao Yuanyuan has made many costume dramas, Yitian Tulongji, No. [-] in the world, and she shoots martial arts scenes herself. One of the two characters uses a sword and the other uses a knife.

So she can play with swords.

"Okay, I'll ask the screenwriter to get you a role, and you can arrange the schedule."

It's just an ordinary trick, it doesn't affect the overall plot, it's harmless, Ding Xiu agreed.

Gao Yuanyuan didn't let the production crew make do with her, and said, "No, after you guys finish the work, set a time, and I'll just come over when the time comes."

There are not many such people who come here to play guest roles and still have to spend time with the crew. Ding Xiu was so moved that he immediately stuffed Gao Yuanyuan with a red envelope.

Opening the red envelope, Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes when she saw that it was 12 yuan: "Your crew is really picky."

Ding Xiu laughed and said, "The ones for the actors are shining, this is for ordinary special appointments."

"If you're not in charge, you don't know that rice is expensive. The crew spends money everywhere, so save as much as you can."

Once the machine is turned on, it costs money like running water, more expensive than the ICU ventilator. Looking at the daily expenses on the financial report, Ding Xiu's heart twitched a few times.

Gao Yuanyuan put the money away in her pocket, and gave the empty red envelope to Ding Xiu: "I'll accept the red envelope. If you don't have enough funds, you can find me. I have money in my card. If it doesn't work, I'll sell the courtyard house."

"Thank you, it's all my money." Ding Xiu almost cried.

His cards are kept by Gao Yuanyuan, and the courtyard house is also his.

Feelings are left handed and right handed.

Standing on tiptoe and patting Ding Xiu's shoulder, Gao Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Isn't your money my money? Why are we so clear about it? Remember, if you don't have enough money, ask me for it."

"I still have a play over there, let's go first, and you will have dinner together after work in the evening."

……

"All departments prepare!"

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

"start!"

In addition to directing, Ding Xiu also plays the leading role part-time. He can't direct when filming. This will be directed by the assistant director Lu Yang.

In the dark night, the two watchmen were chatting, talking about Wei Zhongxian who had just fallen. When they walked to an alley, they heard a strange noise and leaned over.

"Who, come out!"

The lantern in his hand approached, and in the darkness, an indifferent face was reflected, with thick eyebrows, high nose bridge, thin lips, slightly weathered skin, and sparse beard on the lips.

The light went down, and when he saw the other party wearing a flying fish suit with an embroidered spring knife straddling his waist, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

"Jin, Jin, Jin."

"Jin Yiwei handles the case, get out!"

Shen Lian, who was dressed in a black flying fish suit, opened his mouth, and immediately walked out of the alley, followed by a team of Jinyi guards, all in flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives, each with a murderous look on their faces.

After walking a few steps, he came to the gate of Chen Mansion.

With the help of two subordinates, Shen Lian easily climbed up the wall by stepping on their thighs, and jumped in as light as a swallow.

In front of the monitor, Lu Yang yelled, and then put down his earphones.

"Brother Xiu can only shoot this scene."

"Fuck the four-meter-high fence, I just jumped into it like that, it's not a rehearsal at all."

Four meters is indeed not a high height, but for an untrained person, the feet would feel numb for a while after jumping down, and the jumping up is so smooth while stepping on the thigh, Lu Yang felt that even a trained person might not be able to do this. Effect.

If it was another crew, this scene must have used martial arts or parkour people as stand-ins.

"continue!"

Ding Xiu straightened his collar, turned his head and said.

The camera followed him all the way to a certain room in Chen's mansion, and after a while, two disheveled women were pulled out, leading Shen Lian to Master Chen's study.

At this moment, Mr. Chen is arranging something for his younger brother, asking him to take the wanted criminal Xu Xianchun to Xizhimen to escape.

"Sister-in-law, what's the matter?" Master Chen's younger brother asked at a loss.

The two women looked like concubines and dared not speak.

Until Shen Lian's figure came out from behind the two of them: "Master Chen, Shen Lian is in charge of Xiabei Town."

"Master Shen, even Jin Yiwei should have an explanation for breaking into my mansion in the middle of the night."

"Why am I here, my lord knows in his heart."

"boom!"

After the literary drama, a martial arts drama unfolded. Master Chen's younger brother immediately attacked Shen Lian, he drew his sword and slashed. Unfortunately, he was crushed by Shen Lian with one hand, his entire arm was pierced, and he was nailed to the table with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

In this scene, the actor playing Mr. Chen's younger brother is a martial artist. He has practiced martial arts for more than ten years, and he is extremely proficient in action scenes. It is considered a co-production with Ding Xiu, and there is no mistake.

It's just that this martial arts took three shots, and finally Ding Xiu kept the last one with the effect.

Coming to Mr. Chen's side, Shen Lian directly threatened him with Mr. Chen's daughter and wife, as if he would come to a father's present every minute if he didn't say anything.

"Don't touch my daughter, she's only 14 years old, I said, I said."

"Crack, pass!"

"I lost it!"

Lu Yang put down his earphones, and said to Ding Xiu who came over to watch the replay: "Who is the scriptwriter of this scene? Jin Yiwei has been hacked so badly. How is this Jin Yiwei? It's worse than the underworld."

After filming the first scene tonight, Jin Yiwei is completely the villain, and Shen Lian is a martial arts expert, but despicable, indifferent, and cold-blooded general flag.

This is different from the image of Jin Yiwei in the past. In previous film and television dramas, the camps where the protagonists belonged to were generally just and mostly good people. Even the notorious Jin Yiwei would become upright, punishing rape and eliminating evil.

Ding Xiu was fine, as long as he was the starring role, wherever he went, there would be a villain's den.

"I made up this scene." Ding Xiu said lightly, "I'm being merciful. The real Jin Yiwei is much darker than this one. I didn't restore the real scene mainly because I was afraid that I wouldn't pass the trial."

That's Jin Yiwei. How many people were killed in the three major crimes of the Ming Dynasty? Even Jin Yiwei in the later period is frightening.

What scares people is not their notoriety, but their methods of doing things, all kinds of torture, coercion and temptation.

For example, in today's scene, if Mr. Chen really did not reveal Xu Xianchun's whereabouts, the Jinyi Guards would take turns taking care of his family every minute.

The hotness of the plot is no worse than that of Sakura Country's movies.

Afterwards, his family members will be sent to Jiaofang Division.

Lu Yang sneered: "If you restore it, everyone in the crew will have to go in."

"Don't be poor, just watch the replay." Ding Xiu skillfully sat in front of the monitor and watched the replay just now.

Mainly watching the literary part.

Fortunately, it was only the first scene, and there were not a few lines in total, so there was nothing wrong with it.

Five minutes later, the second scene began to be arranged.

According to Ding Xiu's order, a lot of mud and some rotten vegetable leaves were sprinkled on the street, and the two sides of the street were arranged to look like people lived there.

The Ming Dynasty in his memory was almost like this.

In terms of details, Ding Xiu is the most detailed director Lu Yang has ever seen.

Take the house as an example, according to the general director's routine, it is almost enough, anyway, I don't shoot the inside, it's just street scenes.

Dan Dingxiu was different. He asked people to arrange beds in the house, test the quality of the windows, design the chimney, and make it look like people live in it.

The second scene was a chase scene. Jin Yichuan chased and killed Xu Xianchun, and wiped the neck of the opponent's men with two neat knives.

Combined with Shen Lian's previous actions, their team of Jinyiwei is a proper villain.

Xu Xiancun ran out of the alley and stopped, because right in front of him, Lu Jianxing was waiting for him with a long sword in his arms and a dozen Jinyiwei holding bows and crossbows.

After arresting the man, the three brothers will reconcile, and they will not be as happy as they imagined. Lu Jianxing, the eldest brother, sighed, saying that the eunuch party has fallen, and all the tasks assigned to them by the superiors are to offend others.

Jin Yichuan, the third child, wanted to borrow money, and Shen Lian, the second child, gave him two taels of silver and told him that it was not the way.

Jin Yichuan seemed to have something difficult to say in his words.

The start time of the crew was eight o'clock in the evening, and it was already twelve o'clock after filming these two scenes, and the crew called it a day.

When the other actors went back to the hotel, Ding Xiu continued to watch the replay. It wasn't until Gao Yuanyuan called that he remembered that he had an appointment with her, and then went to eat.

Filming continued the next day.

The crew is divided into two groups.

One shoots Shen Lian and Zhou Miaotong, and the other shoots Ding Xiu and Jin Yichuan.

In the Warm Fragrance Pavilion, Liu Sisi was wearing tulle and lying on her side on the bed, the firewood in the brazier next to her was crackling.

Shen Lian was adding firewood to it.

"Come up and sleep." Zhou Miaotong who woke up was not curious, did not yell, but said calmly.

"No, I'm fine here." Shen Lian got up, sat on the chair, did not look at Zhou Miaotong's figure, but stared straight ahead.

Zhou Miaotong said: "Come to Nuanxiang Pavilion, spend money not to go to bed, you are the only one."

Shen Lian lowered his head, his throat rolled, but he still said calmly: "When I have saved enough money, I will redeem you out."

Outside, there was a client who wanted to find Zhou Miaotong, who was yelling loudly, clamoring for Zhou Miaotong to wash up and accompany him.

The two people in the room heard such a loud voice, but they pretended not to hear it, as if they were used to it.

Zhou Miaotong's calm face was filled with a bit of sneer: "My lord, the general banner, can you redeem me for that little salary of yours?"

"Besides, this is Jiaofangsi's brothel, and no one can get out without a document from the Ministry of Punishment."

After the words fell, Zhou Miaotong's face became calm again, her tone was very low, and she had already resigned to her fate.

"Crack!"

"Sisi's expression should not be so obvious, but use tone to express your emotions."

Lu Yang stopped and corrected Liu Sisi's performance flaws.

Ding Xiu also nodded, expressing his agreement, and told her a play: "It can be said that Zhou Miaotong's success today is due to Shen Lian. Her whole family was killed. This is a blood feud. She, a weak woman, can't kill Shen Lian, and she has been here for a long time. Being ruined by a man, she has accepted her fate."

"That's why she doesn't appreciate Shen Lian. Beneath her calm face is a torrent of inner struggle. Be more ruthless when she mocks."

Liu Sisi scratched her head, puzzled: "Brother Xiu, what is a calm face and a struggling heart?"

Ding Xiu got up, let me act for you, and you play Shen Lian, cooperate with me.

Facts have proved that Ding Xiu still has two talents. Not only can he perform martial arts, but he is no weaker than Liu Sisi in female dramas.

For some reason, Liu Sisi suddenly had an idea that if a man gets flirty, it really doesn't matter to a woman.

How Ding Xiu demonstrated, Liu Sisi followed suit, without difficulty at all.

This scene passed without any risk.

Next door, Zhou Yiwei and Song Yang's scenes were NG several times, but they still couldn't meet the standard, and the assistant director looked sad.

Zhou Yiwei acted very well, without faults, and Song Yang was also good, but I don’t know why, it almost seemed to mean it, that’s what it meant, and kept recurring.

Zhou Yiwei collapsed: "Director, why don't you give me a standard, and I will act according to it."

He changed four or five ways of acting, because Ding Xiu's role was to eat steamed buns, and he would eat more than a dozen of them, and his stomach was terribly full.

I want to vomit when I see steamed buns.

"Brother Xiu, you came just in time." The assistant director saw Ding Xiu's figure, stood up and waved: "Can you use your understanding to play Ding Xiu's appearance."

"Why, didn't you take a picture?"

"It's almost meaningless. It's different from when you were reading the script before. How about you explain the play to the two of them."

"I'll watch the replay first."

Sitting in front of the monitor, Ding Xiu quickly watched Zhou Yiwei and Song Yang's performance, and immediately got up and came to the stage and said to Song Yang: "Let's do it again, I will play Ding Xiu, you look the same."

This scene is Ding Xiu's home game, and the main focus is on Zhou Yiwei.

He had to play "himself" for the other party to see.

Play yourself, don't say it, it's weird.

Asking Zhou Yiwei to give him the seedling knife, Ding Xiu took a few steps back and came out from the dark, holding the knife and munching on steamed buns.

"Brother." Song Yang said.

He didn't come to talk immediately, Ding Xiu walked over while eating, bent over, lowered his head, looked up, and said generously, "What are you looking at?"

He hadn't eaten steamed buns for many years, and he was a little choked up, and Ding Xiu swallowed.

"I'm afraid that your friends who are on the job will see me, don't worry, they have already gone a long way."

"Brother, take the silver, let's go." Song Yang took out two taels of silver.

Seeing that the money is open, Ding Xiu threw away the remaining half of the steamed buns, wiped his hands on the clothes on his chest, this is respect for the money, and then sighed:
"No matter how small a fly is, it's still meat."
