This entertainment industry is a bit strange

Chapter 57 Killing chickens to scare monkeys?Who is the chicken?
After arriving in the mountain city, after only one day of rest, the crew began to work.

Originally, it was just a small crew with little attention, and there was no need for such things as the launch conference.

A simple opening ceremony was held, and after offering incense to a table of offerings, the filming officially started.

Yang Rui firmly remembered Ding Lan's instructions, and has been by Zhao Honglei's side since the production crew met, shouting Mr. Zhao very enthusiastically.

Old Zhao was a bit put on airs at first, but under Yang Rui's compliments, he quickly accepted this "registered disciple".

After the filming started, Yang Rui followed Lao Zhao closely with a notebook in one hand and a recorder in the other. For those who didn't know it, he thought it was some accompanying entertainment reporter who was interviewing the director.

At 10:2 am on October 10, the sky was clear.

Downstairs of a dilapidated residential building, the site has been cleared and the seats are ready.

There was silence within the radius, and almost everyone held their breath, as if time and space had frozen.

"Irrelevant personnel leave the stage, the actors please take their seats, the first shot of the first scene of "Crazy Stone", ACTION!"

Snapped!
The loud sound of hitting the board was like breaking a spell, and the whole set instantly came back to life.

however……

"Crack!"

In less than five seconds, executive director Kang Jian immediately called a stop.

"Then who, why are you in a daze, it's already turned on, hurry up and enter the state!"

On the set, Zhao Ming, who played the role of "Little Army" in the thieves trio, blushed and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll pay more attention next time."

The second time the shooting started, Kang Jian stopped again within ten seconds.

"Brother, where are your eyes looking? Why are you staring at the camera when you are asked to film? Do it all over again!"

"I'm sorry director, I'll pay attention next time..."

"Crack!"

"Move! What did I tell you just now? You're almost out of camera, you know? Do it all over again!"

"I'm sorry director..."

"Crack!"

With ten lightning bolts NG in succession, the atmosphere in the crew changed quietly. Many people covered their mouths and started whispering, with snickering in their eyes.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Honglei chuckled, "This kid is a bit crazy, he doesn't hide his thoughts at all."

Yang Rui was taken aback, "You mean... he did it on purpose?"

Zhao Honglei glanced at him, and said with a smile: "According to the industry, this is called grinding the lens, and it is used to improve the tacit understanding of the crew to find the feeling."

"Theoretically, every crew will have such a process, but generally they don't go too far. After all, they have to take care of the actors' self-confidence and emotions. Too much is not enough."

"But this Xiaokang... think about it carefully, this is obviously not the first scene in the script, why did he arrange to shoot this scene in the first place?"

"From the beginning to now, he has been NG ten times. He has been staring at the same person to find fault. Do you think it is a coincidence?"

Yang Rui was silent, he understood.

Xiangzhuang's sword dance is intended for Peigong.

This health is declaring sovereignty by killing chickens and monkeys!
What he really wants to challenge is the director Zhengyin's seat!

"You can handle this matter yourself." Zhao Honglei patted Yang Rui on the shoulder, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, "I'm only in charge of filming, I don't care about the rest."

Yang Rui nodded, got up and walked towards Zhao Ming who was resting.

"Little master... no, Director Yang, I'm sorry." Zhao Ming said with a face of shame: "The first shot failed so many times, and you will be ashamed as well."

"From now on, I'll be called Junior Brother." Yang Rui shook his head and said, "Director Yang and others are called by outsiders."

Zhao Ming was stunned for a moment, "But..."

Yang Rui laughed and interrupted: "You go down and rest first, I'll take care of it here."

After Zhao Ming went down, Yang Rui shouted in front of everyone: "Xu Fang!"

A young woman in her 30s immediately got up and ran over. She was the work assistant arranged by the company for Yang Rui.

"Teacher Yang, what are your orders?"

Yang Rui pointed directly at Kang Jian, and said coldly with deep eyebrows: "Help him settle the payment, book him another ticket, and let him go!"

As soon as the voice fell, the audience was dead silent.

Everyone looked at Yang Rui in a daze, with disbelief on their faces.

What's happening here?
Kicking off the executive director on the first day of starting up?

He's crazy? !

Xu Fang was also quite frightened, "Director Yang, calm down..."

"No need." Yang Rui shook his head directly, "You tell Boss Ding, just say that's what I mean, if you have any questions, let her come to me directly."

Xu Fang breathed a sigh of relief quietly, it would be fine if she didn't have to take the blame.

Kang Jian over there, came back to his senses and was so angry that the top of his head was smoking, "Why? For no reason, why did you kick me?!"

"Just because I saved this crew, just because I have the final say here!" Yang Rui sneered and said, "What are you, you want to show me off without saying a word? Are you giving yourself face?"

Yang Rui scolded heartily, beside the director's seat, Su Ming whispered while helping Zhao Honglei, "Mr. Zhao, is he going too far?"

"The method is a little rough, but it's not a big problem." Zhao Honglei said with a smile: "The Chinese film industry is a director-centered system, but there is no director who is ambitious, and there is no one who is not a tyrant on the set."

"If you don't have a temper and like to be a good old man... Hehe, my present is his future."

"If he swallowed this breath today, his future achievements may be like that."

"Man, you have to be a bit sharp to be worth a second look..."

While the two were talking, Kang Jian on the other side had been scolded so badly that he almost vomited blood.

He never expected that the nominal director's temper would be so irritable, it was like gunpowder, and it would explode at any moment.

Didn't I just test it a little bit, do I need to be so serious?

Seeing that Xu Fang had really started calling to report the situation, he realized that things were a bit serious.

He wanted to be soft, but Yang Rui didn't intend to give him a chance at all.

If you tell you to go, go!

Ding Lan's reply was also simple - Yang Rui had the final say.

If you are healthy and want to make a claim, yes, see you in court.

Kang Jian's last glimmer of hope was shattered, and he could only leave the set in despair with his assistant.

With his departure, the entire crew became terrified.

When everyone looked at Yang Rui again, there seemed to be a little more fear and respect in their eyes.

Kang Jian wanted to make an example of the chickens, but in the end he became a "chicken"... Isn't this a warning to them?

In this crew, Yang Rui's authority cannot be challenged!
Dissatisfied... Get out!

After kicking Kang Jian away, Yang Rui came to Zhao Honglei.

Before he could speak, Zhao Honglei preemptively said: "Don't look for me, my set is not suitable for this script at all, and the filming will only be nondescript."

Yang Rui scratched his head, "Then we can only let Boss Ding find another assistant."

"Actually...you can do it yourself." Zhao Honglei squinted his eyes and said, "Your storyboard is very complete, which proves that you already have a complete idea of ​​the film in your head, and all you need is the interpretation of the camera."

"A good photographer can basically help you with this part of the work, and I can help you think of a way to solve the rest of the work."

Hearing this, Yang Rui's heart skipped a beat.

It seems... makes sense!
"You wrote the script yourself. No one knows better than you what kind of texture the film needs, right?" Lao Zhao continued to bewitch.

After hesitating for a moment, Yang Rui gritted his teeth hard and his gaze was firm.

"Okay, then I will do it myself!"

In the corner of the studio, Su Ming poked Zhao Ming's arm, "Have you noticed that the younger brother seems to have changed?"

"Yes." Zhao Ming nodded and said, "I used to feel that he was very thoughtful and didn't look like a child, but now he seems to be a lot more reckless, a bit sharp-edged."

"Yo, have you learned how to use idioms?" Su Ming teased, then sighed: "Being changed roles before the battle must have dealt a big blow to him. I guess he is holding his breath in his heart, just waiting for this film to be proud .”

"So we can't hold back." Zhao Ming wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said firmly, "Even if we can't help him, at least we can't be a drag bottle!"
