The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 180 "Startup of Dashang Palace"

On the last day of April, God was as generous as ever, and another sunny day came.

In an antique courtyard next to Hengdian Film and Television City, a group of people gathered together, accompanied by the sound of firecrackers, the crowd cheered.

Li Shengyao stood in the middle of the crowd, announcing that "Da Shang Palace" was officially launched.

He then distributed red envelopes to everyone, and then asked the assistant director to prepare for the filming.

The field workers have already prepared, the actors have also changed into costumes, and can shoot after putting on makeup.

Among them was a young actor who was cute and cute.

This is a little girl who looks about ten years old. Her name is Tan Songhong. She is from Sichuan Province. She is 12 years old. She is short and has a small face. She looks younger than her actual age.

She is the actress chosen by the crew to play the role when she was a child.

The heroine of the Korean version is Xu Changjin, who directly used the name of the legendary female imperial doctor on the peninsula.

Naturally, Li Shengyao couldn't use this name. He chose another name, Su Xinzhao.

"Xinzhao" means fresh and elegant, thriving, and full of quality and blue heart.

The scene to be filmed today is some plots of the heroine's parents, mainly their scenes outside the palace.

Yan Danchen and Guo Xiaodong invited Li Shengyao to play cameos.

Yan Danchen is beautiful and gentle, very suitable to play a kind and restrained mother.

Guo Xiaodong's skin is dark, and he barely has the temperament of a general.

It is easy for two people to play the heroine's parents.

Among them, Guo Xiaodong's role is especially worth mentioning. He plays the role of a general in the palace.

In the Korean version, this character was ordered to kill a queen. Since Lee Shengyao moved the story to the early Ming Dynasty, he could not kill the queen, but only killed a concubine.

The general beheaded and killed the concubine, deeply feeling that he was caught in the vortex of palace struggles, and if he didn't leave, he was afraid that he would die soon.

He left the capital in a hurry.

The following plot is mysterious and mysterious, very Chinese style. If it is said to be a Chinese drama, I am afraid that no one will object.

The general left the capital, disguised himself, and walked among the deep mountains and old forests alone.

He was restless, fell down, and then met a mysterious Taoist priest in a cave at the bottom of the valley. The Taoist said that his future was miserable and his fate was in the hands of three women.

The first woman was killed by him, but not dead.

The second woman was saved by him, but the woman would die for him.

The third woman will kill him, but will save many lives in doing so.

The Taoist also gave him three words, namely "妗", "Shun" and "Good".

The general was shocked, and was about to continue asking, but the Taoist priest suddenly disappeared.

With doubts, he left the bottom of the valley, went to a nearby temple, and found a monk to help him solve the doubts in his heart.

The monk interpreted the characters for him, "Jin", "Shun" and "Good" respectively represent three women, "Jin" is a bad woman, "Shun" and "Hao" are good women.

The audience will have doubts when they see this.

Isn't that concubine dead?Why is it said that he killed but did not die?

As the plot continues, a general will soon meet a court lady, and this court lady is the second woman.

Then their child was born, the child was lovely and kind, and she was the third woman.

Many viewers can guess who the three women correspond to those three words, but they wonder why the heroine is so kind and wants to kill her father?

It can be said that the screenwriter here has set up a suspense and a sense of expectation.

"Dae Jang Geum" can be so successful, the plot structure is naturally very brilliant.

Lee Sung Yew felt that the first episode was particularly exciting.

The content of today's filming is the story of the military general and his wife leading the heroine to live in seclusion in the village.

The family of three lives in poverty, but they love each other and enjoy themselves happily.

The heroine is very smart, can speak and count at a young age, and wants to be able to read and write.

Thinking of her own experience, her mother felt that her daughter did not need to study, so she refused to teach the heroine how to read.

But she soon discovered that when the heroine was picking out the leaves, she actually used some stems and leaves to put out a few words, which made her both distressed and relieved.

She finally relented and agreed to teach her daughter to read and write.

This episode is not difficult. For Yan Danchen and Guo Xiaodong, it is enough to concentrate a little bit.

But for Tan Songhong, who performed for the first time, it was a bit difficult.

Nowadays, children are generally precocious and lack a sense of innocence.

Although Tan Songhong is cute, she knows a lot. She is pretending to be innocent now, and she is far less skilled than ten years later.

Li Shengyao yelled Ka mainly because of Tan Songhong.

But this is the case with young actors, one in a million with good talent.

There is no rush, only slow guidance.

Fortunately, Tan Songhong's appearance is absolutely passable, she just needs to be a little cute, and she looks very innocent and cute.

After several times of NG, Tan Songhong gradually found some feelings, and the subsequent shooting was much smoother.

"Uncle director, do you think my performance just now is okay?"

After successfully passing through a set of shots, Tan Songhong came up to Li Shengyao in small steps, pretending to be cute and asking.

Li Shengyao glanced at Tan Songhong, "It's okay."

When the assistant director handed over the list of actors, Li Shengyao was also very surprised. He didn't expect to see 12-year-old Tan Songhong.

In addition to Tan Songhong, the crew also has a young actor who Li Shengyao also knows. This actor is Jin Chen. She plays the role of "Jinying" in "Dae Jang Geum", who is the heroine's future rival in the palace. .

The Korean version of the little heroine is actually average in length, but her acting skills are good.

As for Tan Songhong and Jin Chen, their acting skills should not be as good as the young actors in the Korean version, but they have good looks. Judging from the effects shown in the shots just now, they will definitely not be worse than the Korean version.

Li Shengyao was quite satisfied with Tan Songhong.

He is looking forward to the reaction of the audience to see the cute little heroine.

Hearing this, Tan Songhong thought she was acting numb, and walked away a little embarrassed.

Hao Lei didn't have a show today, so he came to watch the excitement, and smiled when he saw this: "I think the little girl's acting is pretty good, why don't you praise her?"

"Praise it after the performance is over, it's a little early now."

Hao Lei just wanted to mention that he didn't really want to fight for Tan Songhong. She came to watch the excitement today, and what touched her the most was the creation of the script.

Although I have read the script a long time ago, I know that the first episode is especially brilliant.

At this time, she was watching a movie on the set and saw the scene of the heroine's family getting along. She discovered some shining points that she hadn't noticed before.

She felt that the script written by Li Shengyao was really good.

She always wanted to start her own company in the future, and couldn't help but want to know why Li Shengyao wrote such a wonderful script.

"Director, how did you come up with those plots?"

Li Shengyao glanced at Hao Lei, "I want to learn."

"think."

"If you can't learn, your IQ is not up to the standard, let's talk about it in the next life."

Hao Lei was impatient.

Li Shengyao went on to say: "Don't think about scripts. When you start a company in the future, if you want to make a drama, you have to buy a script. Buy that kind of famous novel. Don't make it up yourself, or you will be ridiculous and stupid."

Hao Lei naturally didn't believe it, she was always strong.

Seeing this, Li Shengyao didn't bother to explain, it's none of his business if she loses money in a few years, let's make "Da Shang Gong" well.
