Chapter 129 Shooting
in the afternoon.

Bill Hackham Bridge.

"All departments pay attention, irrelevant personnel leave the stage, and actors are in place."

"The number one machine is normal."

"The second machine is normal."

"The voice is normal."

At this time, the recorder stepped forward to play the board.

Li Mu picked up the loudspeaker in his hand:

"action!"

Tom Hanks looked at Liu Yifei with amazed eyes and said, "Admiration!"

Liu Yifei walked in front of Hanks, and Hanks inadvertently looked at the surrounding environment. At this moment, his expression suddenly changed, first he was surprised, then his face was serious, and finally the seriousness began to be mixed with annoyance.

"I know this bridge, is this a real place?"

Liu Yifei, on the other hand, looked disapproving, and continued walking forward without turning her head:

"Yes, I go to school across the bridge every day."

"You must never reconstruct a scene from your memory, something new must be created."

"You have to borrow something familiar, don't you?"

"It can only borrow details, such as street lights, telephone booths, but it does not include copying the entire place."

"why?"

"Because borrowing scenes from your memory to create a dream can easily make you lost what is a dream and what is reality."

"Have you ever had this kind of experience?" Liu Yifei's expression of indifference and indifference is almost unbearable.

"Listen..." Tom Hanks stepped forward and grabbed Liu Yifei's arm, "This has nothing to do with me, understand?"

"So you want me to help you dream?"

The assistant director hurriedly directed the group performers to pull Liu Yifei. Tom Hanks pushed the group performers away. Three group performers, two men and one woman, held Tom Hanks tightly. Hanks shouted: " Don't touch her, Mo'er!"

Two group performers, one male and one female, controlled Liu Yifei tightly. At this time, the group of group performers automatically separated to the two sides, and a woman holding a knife walked through the crowd and appeared in Liu Yifei's sight.

"Mo'er!"

"Wake me up, wake me up!"

"Wake me up!"

"Mo'er!"

Holding the prop knife, Marion Cotillard strode up to Liu Yifei, and then made a sudden stabbing motion.

"Crack!"

Liu Yifei, Tom Hanks, and Marion Cotillard came to the monitor, and Li Mu played the replay of the previous one for them.

Tom Hanks and Marion Cotillard played very well. Only the first filming, the effect is not inferior to the original movie in the original world.

Li Mu compared the two versions frame by frame in his mind, and finally realized that the only weakness of his version might be Liu Yifei's performance.

There is no doubt that Ellen Paige's acting skills are better than Liu Yifei's, and Li Mu knew it well as early as the beginning of the film project.

But is it because Liu Yifei's performance is completely unwatchable?

Actually not!
It can only be said that everything is afraid of comparison. Playing with Tom Hanks and Marion Cotillard, Liu Yifei's shortcomings are more obvious.

"Okay, everyone get ready, let's do it again."

A few minutes later, all departments were ready again, and with Li Mu's order, the filming started again.

"Mo'er!"

"Wake me up, wake me up!"

"Wake me up!"

"Mo'er!"

As Marion Cotillard stabbed out, Li Mu yelled Ka again.

The three actors also came to Li Mu's side again. Li Mu pointed to the frozen picture on the monitor, drew a circle in front of the monitor with his fingers to circle Liu Yifei's expression, and said, "Look, this time is better than last time." Much better, that feeling of dread has started to set in—okay, that's it, this one's over."

Upon hearing this, the on-site assistant director immediately went to arrange preparations for the next scene.The on-site staff such as the scene reporter, the assistant director, the producer, and Mr. Gan also smiled.

So far, today's shooting seems to be going well.

"Director, why don't we do it again, I think I can play better."

Just when everyone turned and left to prepare for the next one, Liu Yifei suddenly said this to Li Mu.

Li Mu also looked at Liu Yifei in surprise.

At this moment, Liu Yifei's eyes are full of seriousness, perhaps there is still a trace of stubbornness hidden.

Li Mu nodded when he saw this, and he greeted the assistant director Zhou Xiaowen and said, "Director Zhou, let's do that one again just now."

……

In the end, this scene was filmed six times, the last four times sometimes the effect was not as good as the first two times, sometimes the effect was unexpectedly good, especially the last time, the effect was actually very close to the original version of the previous life, it was a great surprise for Li Mu. Little surprise.

In the next filming, Li Mu unconsciously increased the requirements for Liu Yifei. It can be said that he should praise, scold, and guide. Sometimes it takes dozens of shots for a scene to give it, and he has watched a lot. The crew members were a little impatient.

"I heard that she slept in the director's room last night? Is it true?"

"It's absolutely true! It is said that all the main crew members were in the living room of the director's suite at that time, and her assistant directly brought food into the bedroom, and the director himself admitted that it was breakfast for her!"

"Really so ruthless? He kept yelling and giving instructions, and he didn't seem to show mercy at all when he spoke. It was as good as Zhou Xing, the tyrant on the set!"

"Why don't people become famous? After all, a man loves another woman, and can he still love his career? To put it bluntly, as long as the career is done well, there are still beauties everywhere?"

After a day of filming, Liu Yifei didn't say a word on the way back to the hotel, and her assistant Zhao Xiaoqian looked helpless.

I want to persuade you a few words, but I really can't speak.

Sister Yifei is angry, the person who made her angry is her boss, how can you persuade her with a little assistant?
But what surprised Zhao Xiaoqian was that Liu Yifei didn't go back to her room, but directly plunged into Li Mu's suite.

"Okay, you go back and rest too."

After dismissing Zhao Xiaoqian, Li Mu turned and entered the suite.

When he came to the bedroom, he saw Liu Yifei lying on the bed and sulking.

Li Mu stretched out his hand to rub her waist, and after a while helped her pinch her shoulders.

"Angry?" Li Mu asked.

Liu Yifei changed his posture and did not speak.

After a while, Li Mu said again: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, at worst, I'll put some water for you tomorrow, okay? In fact, I wanted to put some water for you today, if you didn't take the initiative—"

Li Mu's words were interrupted by Liu Yifei's sudden turning over, she stared at Li Mu angrily, and spoke after a while.

"What makes me most angry is that you let me down. For the first scene filmed today, everyone could see that my acting was not good enough, but you just said that you let that pass. Li Mu, you said, you were What do you think?"

"I...I..." Li Mu was at a loss for words when he heard the words.

Just listen to Liu Yifei continuing: ""Inception" is an investment of 1.2 million U.S. dollars, Oscar winners and queens joined, a bunch of big Hollywood stars, countless pairs of eyes all over the country are staring at it, such big leaders are all interested in this movie I have high hopes. China Film, Xiying, Bernard, Huayi, Guangxian, Disney, so many big companies have all invested money. If this movie wins, you will be a top international director. You have the copyright of novels that have not yet been developed. The value doubled in an instant, but today you gave me water."

Tears welled up in the corners of Liu Yifei's eyes at this moment: "If your movie fails because of me—do you want me to feel guilty for the rest of your life? On my head? I don't need you to let the water go, I'd rather be scolded by you on the set than have to remember that I messed up such an important project of yours all the time in my later life."
