The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 84
At seven o'clock in the evening on April 2001, 4, the temperature in Harbin was minus two degrees, and the cold wind howled.

However, in the central street in the city center, there are still people coming and going at this time, very bustling.

This is a street built in 1900. There are many European-style buildings. It is the largest and longest pedestrian street in Asia. It has long been a key protected street in Harbin.

In a place at the end of the street, the big trees on both sides of the road are hung with colored lights. The big trees are accompanied by colored lights, changing colors from time to time, which is very beautiful.

This is not to celebrate April Fool's Day, but the crew of "Winter Sonata" is filming here.

Those lanterns were put up by the prop group.

With the help of Blackwater Satellite TV, the crew successfully applied for the shooting permit on Central Street in Harbin.

At this time, there were not only many passers-by watching, but also many policemen helping to maintain order.

In order not to cause confusion, this section of the plot in the block should be filmed as soon as possible.

Li Shengyao and the others have actually rehearsed many times on the set in the suburbs.

So the field workers were quickly ready.

"The first shot of the first scene, let's start."

This is the plot of the first episode. The heroine is on the phone with her fiancé and rushing to the engagement scene. At this moment, she sees the person who should have died in the bustling street that she has loved deeply for ten years.

She was so shocked at first that the phone dropped to the ground.

When she came to her senses, the man had disappeared.

She didn't bother to look for her mobile phone, and ran on the street looking for it.

This is such a plot that reflects the heroine's affection and helplessness.

Yan Danchen has now found the state that Li Shengyao wants. During the group performance, she is holding a mobile phone to make a call.

She was wearing an off-white coat on the outside, a dark blue turtleneck sweater on the inside, matched with a dark blue knee-length skirt, and black stockings with small high heels.

From coats to short skirts to stockings, the color gradually deepens, and the overall look is layered and very beautiful.

The snow machine started to work, and the snowflakes fell and swirled one after another.

The hostess couldn't help looking up at Xuehua. Although she was talking to her fiancé and chatting about the engagement banquet, there was sadness and helplessness hidden in her eyes.

Her gaze slowly moved down along the snowflakes in front of her, and her eyes widened instantly.

Less than 20 meters in front of her, a man who looked exactly like her first love appeared.

The man wears a woolen coat with jeans, wears glasses, and has brown hair.

Snowflakes fell into his palm, and the man grinned lightly.

The hostess was stunned...

Li Shengyao sat behind the director's monitor, frowning slightly. He felt that whether it was Yan Danchen or Zhao Yang, the performance was a little stiff.

Probably because there are too many people watching from a distance.

He clapped his hands, "Very well, relax, let's take the second shot."

After Yan Danchen and Zhao Yang finished retouching their makeup, they came to Li Shengyao and asked about the shooting situation just now.

"You were a little nervous just now, relax, don't be surprised by so many people watching, take it as an exam, and exercise your mind."

Not long after, they started shooting for the second time. Zhao Yang's performance was obviously much better this time, but Yan Danchen seemed to be nervous, and some expressions were not in place.

"Retouch, set."

"Others take a break."

Han Yue was touching up Yan Danchen's makeup, when Yan Danchen saw Li Shengyao, he averted his eyes with guilt.

Li Shengyao laughed softly, "You can behave well without looking at me."

"I'll be sure to act well later."

Li Shengyao shook his head, "You are too nervous, don't put pressure on yourself, it doesn't matter if you act slowly, but you must complete the performance."

"it is good."

Li Shengyao glanced at the dark night sky, "I'll give you 15 minutes, please memorize the steps of this plot."

After the words fell, he left.

At this time, there were more onlookers outside, and many people recognized Yan Danchen and Zhao Yang, and shouted one after another.

Li Shengyao did not stop.

Their scene was not broadcast live, and they had no right to stop passers-by watching.

In his opinion, a professional actor should have the ability to perform with one heart and one mind.

People are separated by dozens of meters, so they will be affected, so it can only be said that they are not suitable for being an actor.

Fifteen minutes passed in a flash, and the third shooting started soon.

This time Yan Danchen's performance was obviously much more complete than last time.

Li Shengyao clapped his hands and applauded, "Very good, much improved than before, take a break and do it again."

After another 15 minutes, the fourth shooting started. There were still some shouts outside, but this time Yan Danchen and Zhao Yang played better.

The two acted out the scenes imagined by Li Shengyao, looking at the handsome men and beautiful women in the director's monitor, and the snowflakes falling one after another.

Li Shengyao was very happy, "Okay, it's over, let's call it a day."

The actors and field workers cheered after hearing this.

We are not monkeys, and no one wants to be stared at by others.

Li Shengyao waited for all the actors and crew to tune in, and then he left.

The street scene in Harbin is very beautiful. There is an exotic style that is not found in other cities in China. Under the dim light, everything looks mysterious and beautiful.

He sat on the bus contracted by the crew, quietly watching the night scene outside.

At this moment, the cell phone rang, and it was Jiang Chunming from Jinling calling.

"Director Li, are you resting?"

Li Shengyao smiled and chatted with Jiang Chunming. After a while, he put down the phone, but Jiang Chunming got a good news in advance.

Since he filmed "Funny Family" last year, he helped promote Jinling.

Jinling City intends to award him "Jinling Honorary Citizen", and the awarding date is NO.18 of this month.

Li Shengyao did not refuse, saying that he would definitely be there when the time came.

Although "Jinling honorary citizen" is not an authoritative award, it is more or less an honor.

In this world, no matter what era it is, the more honors you have, the more convenient it is to do things.

Li Shengyao put down his phone, and just when he was about to close his eyes and rest his mind, Chunming called again.

"Director Li, there is another piece of good news."

Jiang Chunming then told what he had just heard, but it was that Shanghai City had submitted "Love Hotel" to the Feitian Award for review, and it was said that the effect was good, and he should be rewarded by then.

The Feitian Award is a national reward for mainland TV dramas, and it can be regarded as the official recognition of the production of film and television dramas.

"Love Hotel" was sold in Wanwan, Xinmatai, Peninsula and Island countries. This is a highlight moment that domestic modern dramas did not have before.

It can be regarded as creating a new way of modern TV dramas in the mainland, and it is reasonable to give rewards.

However, "Love Hotel" is a romantic drama after all, so it shouldn't be able to win the first prize. It may be the second or third prize.

No matter how many awards, it is a kind of recognition.

"Okay, I see. Thank you for the news. When I go to Jinling, we will get together."

After hanging up the phone, Li Shengyao smiled lightly.

The bus just entered the most prosperous main road in Harbin. There are tall buildings and buildings on both sides of the street. The lights are brilliant, and the bright colored light falls down. The pedestrians on the street and the road are covered with a layer of colored light.

Inside the bus, actors and field workers were also joking.

Li Shengyao was in a good mood, "Tonight's supper will add two chicken legs and a bottle of beer."
