I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 372 [Confrontation]

Li Tianran's experience can scare others to death.

They had no idea that it was makeup, that it was props, that it was acting, they just thought it was a real murder scene.

In order to film the movie, the director really brought up an unlucky guy from nowhere, and in front of everyone, he vividly acted out how a person died because of a hole in the back of his head.

"How about this? Can it be edited? Still need to reshoot."

In the monitoring room, in addition to Lu Zhengyi, Xu Feng, the leader of the post-production team, was also there.

There were two monitors in front of him, and one screen showed the content captured by Victor.

The other one belongs to Li Tianran.

“There’s no need for reshoots…”

Xu Feng looked at the bloody scene on the screen and said, "Don't scare the others to death."

And myself...

But Bai Wei, he will not be as good as himself going forward.

"Just in time, Xiaowei, you're here."

In the beginning, he was a field recorder, but in the end he was just a handyman and had to help with every job.

As a long-form video blogger, I entered the crew with my skills.

Bai Wei is no longer the stupid young man he used to be. He has to ask for instructions from this and that before doing anything. From becoming an apprentice to Zhang Yu, to being promoted to assistant director, and then directing on-site shootings again and again...

"To avoid having to reshoot later."

Now, this man in his thirties has the courage to stand alone.

When processing Fu Jiang's material, their post-production team put in a lot of effort so that Li Tianran could better replace Zhou Jie in the feature film.

He didn't want the feature film to have quality problems due to insufficient material.

"Forehead……"

Xu Feng hesitated for a moment, but did not refuse again.

Whether it's mentality, social status, or some other content, they are moving forward.

Lu Zhengyi frowned slightly, "Then let's shoot it again and get more material to avoid having to reshoot again later."

From the bottom of his heart, he didn't feel that the two of them were on the same track.

Xu Feng could clearly see the changes in Bai Wei's body. To be honest, he was a little envious.

When it comes to the later stages of processing and there is not enough material, I will be the one who suffers and gets scolded.

With that said, he turned around and headed back to the set.

They had just said a few words when Bai Wei, who was still at the shooting scene just now, came over. Lu Zhengyi said directly, "The shooting was good, but because what we need now is Victor's frontal shooting, but in the action scenes, it is still It is supplemented by some of Li Tianran’s stand-in perspectives, so the amount of material required is quite large.”

His time now is quite precious.

Or maybe, even if they became assistant directors, they wouldn't be as good as Bai Wei.

People's personalities change all the time with age.

"Yes, I should be able to cut it."

They were considered peers, but unconsciously, whether it was his old classmates or Bai Wei, everyone was ahead of him.

"It shouldn't be difficult to match the two video tracks and cut this section smoothly."

"should?"

Perhaps, if they had been selected, trained, and became assistant directors, there might have been such changes.

In comparison, other people older than him, such as Wei Kang, Ajie, Zhou Ziyun... were far behind.

Even a little jealous.

"Xiaowei, I feel a little different from before."

Lu Zhengyi's attitude is so serious now. If he wants to stop it now in order to prevent others from having too much trouble.

Every time a stand-in comes on stage, in addition to the performance itself, it also requires subsequent efforts.

"In this way, you arrange to shoot again, and we will see the effect."

The old classmate is not an ordinary person. With his current achievements, Xu Feng doesn't think there is anything to be jealous of.

Then, he nodded, "Okay, then I'll ask them not to clean up the scene yet."

Of course, luck is also part of success.

Bai Wei was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

He was first taught some assistant directors' job abilities by Zhang Yu, and then practiced them on Lu Zhengyi's crew.

I don’t even want to have to come back to film again because of quality issues.

Compared to Xu Feng, Bai Wei is now much more receptive, at least when it comes to filming.

After all, before editing, no one can directly judge from the shooting content whether the two different materials can be perfectly connected into one video track.

But now that he is the assistant director, I occasionally have to listen to his arrangements, especially for this recent drama. Because his old classmate is quite busy, he even took over the casting job. He stood there in high spirits and asked who he cast. , whoever can get the role.

Although, in the crew, people still politely call me Brother Feng, but the way he stands there and directs the overall situation like Lu Zhengyi is really enviable.

"Wei Kang and the others strictly followed the predetermined route when moving the footage for these two materials. The shooting effect was acceptable, but Li Tianran's performance was not very good. In this place, he should have only exposed his back. But now his profile is revealed..."

Lu Zhengyi, who was staring at the monitor with calm eyes, was talking about the material.

In fact, he had already noticed in his heart the changes in the mood of the people around him.

But he didn't say much. This was not the first time that something like this had happened in the crew. Where there are people, there is competition.

Although it may be due to their own reasons, everyone is not so obsessed with money.

The main reason is that each of them has earned a lot in the past ten years. They can definitely afford one or two houses and several cars, so they don't have much desire.

But they still have some small disputes about power.

Especially for Bai Wei, he was just a small-time reporter. In the crew, he had to be called brother here and sister there.

But no matter what, his job scope is that of a handyman. He knows a little bit about any job in the crew. Although he is not proficient, he is so versatile that when Zhang Yu fell ill, he chose him to take on part of the work.

At that time, Bai Wei was working as an assistant director under the title of scriptwriter, carefully handing over work to other people in the crew.

There is no way for him to be like Zhang Yu, who has a decent name and enough seniority to be able to command others as a matter of course.

Sometimes when I need help from someone, I have to nod and bow down, and occasionally I have to buy some snacks out of my own pocket.

Bai Wei adapted to this, grew up, and became the current assistant director Bai.

But it's strange, they all see it.

But there are still some people who selectively ignore his efforts because of his success.

Of course, everyone behaved harmoniously in front of him, which was enough for Lu Zhengyi.

……

"call--"

"call--"

Heavy breathing sounded in the cabin.

Under the dim light, Jesse came to the kitchen in a panic, grabbed a long knife for cutting meat, and then squatted aside, hiding herself in the shadows under the cover of the long table in the restaurant.

Although she had a weapon in her hand, the person chasing her behind her had a gun in her hand!

And it’s a shotgun!
"pat, pat..."

Dull footsteps sounded from beside me. From the photographer's perspective, through the crack in the door, I could see a man covering his face with a gray burlap bag, with only his eyes exposed, holding a gun and looking for something.

But fortunately, he did not enter the kitchen, but carefully walked along the aisle of the cabin to the other side.

Hearing the footsteps slowly fading away, Jesse quickly stood up, walked out the door, and walked back the way she came.

"Crack, snap, snap, snap!"

As she tiptoed toward the deck, rapid footsteps sounded from behind, and people were running in the direction she had just left.

"Crew's access, leading to lifeboat deck."

"Upper deck, door four."

"This staircase leads to the lifeboat station."

……

The camera follows Jesse.

Along the way, she turned back from time to time, giving the audience panicked looks. At the same time, the camera also recorded the road signs marking the locations of the places she passed.

Everything was just right, like a well-arranged drama.

"Bang bang bang bang-"

On the deck above, there were rapid footsteps, which attracted Jesse's attention.

She stopped unconsciously, thinking that the masked man was upstairs.

But the next moment, from the camera's perspective, a figure suddenly appeared behind her, and the gun butt swung toward her.

"boom!"

With a dull sound, Jesse fell to the ground.

But before she could recover, a cold gun barrel had been stretched out and placed in front of her.

It was obvious that the footsteps on the deck upstairs were not coming from the masked man.

"Don't shoot, please!"

In the face of life and death, Jesse's panic and panic are expressed in a more intuitive way.

She kept moving her body to the side and said in a pleading tone.

"Don't shoot!"

"Please, don't shoot!"

"I have a kid, I have a kid!"

She held out her palms in front of her body, trying to use her identity as a mother to gain sympathy from the other party.

However, this word seemed to touch the masked man's emotions even more.

His finger was on the trigger.

However, it seems that this masked man is not an experienced gun user. Now, the barrel of the gun is only millimeters away from Jesse's hand.

When the other person put his hand on the trigger, she suddenly stretched out her palm, grabbed the barrel of the gun, and moved it aside.

"boom!"

At this time, the masked man fired again, but the direction was no longer Jesse.

One shot missed and the two became entangled.

"boom!"

In the entanglement, another shot was fired, but it was still empty!

If it was a short pistol, Jesse wouldn't have any chance, but it just so happened that the other party was holding a shotgun with a long barrel.

At close range, this gun barrel caused a great obstacle to the opponent.

After two missed shots, Jesse successfully pushed the opponent to the ground, and then rolled over from the side railing to the next deck.

The whole process went smoothly.

This is not the first time she has shown such skills in this film.

However, going down to the next deck did not mean it was safe. The masked man continued to chase behind her, but after several consecutive shots missed, she ran out of bullets.

In the camera, Jesse is running quickly on the deck.

After passing through a cross aisle, she picked up the fire ax hanging on the wall and threw a piece of metal in another direction, trying to interfere with the other party's judgment.

The metal piece fell to the ground, making a 'clack' sound.

However, the masked man was not affected by the sound and continued to look for him in the right direction.

"Ding!"

The sound of metal colliding sounded one after another. Without bullets, it also meant that both sides could only fight with iron tools.

Jesse held a fire ax in his hand, but the other person only had a slender iron bar in his hand.

After a brief clash of iron tools, both sides alternated offensive and defensive positions.

Now lying on the ground, moving his body backwards and waving his hands to beg for mercy, he has become the masked man.

"Who are you? Tell me!"

Jesse yelled and kept forcing the masked man to move towards the deck.

The masked man looked very panicked. His movements and tone of begging for mercy were exactly like Jesse's a few minutes ago.

"This is the only way to go home."

"You have to kill them."

"Kill them, kill them!"

The masked man kept shouting, his voice somewhat muffled by the coarse cloth.

But as he became more and more agitated, Jesse stopped holding back and swung the fire ax in his hand.

However, just before the ax blade approached, the masked man jumped off the cruise ship himself.

The camera suddenly zoomed in, and his figure fell downwards until he fell into the water and splashed.

Everything seemed to be over at this moment.

However, just when Jesse was breathing heavily and finally had a chance to breathe, a sound of music sounded from a nearby room.

A very weird piece of pure music.

She put down the fire ax in a daze and walked towards the house.

The camera followed her point of view. When she entered the room, there were cans, wine bottles, cigarette boxes... various sundries on the table. On a very old-looking gramophone, a record was being played. And it's come to an end.

Jesse walked over in a daze, straightened the needle, and wanted to start listening to the music again.

Music that sounds very old-fashioned comes from the gramophone.

This voice seemed to remind Jesse of something. Her face was full of doubts, and she came to the mirror and looked at herself in the mirror.

At this moment, noisy voices sounded from outside.

Jesse instinctively walked outside, trying to find the source of the sound.

And when she came to the deck and looked into the distance from the railing, she saw a small cruise ship that had turned over and was floating on the sea. There were several people on it, waving to her constantly.

Those people looked familiar, Greg, Victor, Donnie, Sally, and... myself!
Jesse stood by the railing blankly, looking at the familiar faces below.

In addition to those who should have died, there is also myself!
"Help us, please!"

They were just like themselves and others not long ago, standing on the small boat that capsized in a shipwreck, waving their hands towards this side to ask for help.

Jesse backed away with an expression of disbelief and stiff movements.

She retreated into the room and touched the table unconsciously.

"Deng Deng Deng Deng——"

On the table, the music from the gramophone sounded again.

"Crack!"

When Liu Mingzhi knocked down the clapperboard in front of the camera, several actors watching in rapt attention suddenly woke up.

Immediately afterwards, they were a little unbelievable.

They actually watched the filming scene just now as a feature film.

The main reason is that without the interference of others, Yu Wenxiu's acting skills are too smooth.

No, not without interference from others.

It's just that the person opposite her perfectly suited her performance. The two of them worked together so harmoniously that they forgot they were acting the whole time.

"Crash-"

The sound of water splashing onto the deck was heard, and the masked man climbed up from the hull of the ship with his bare hands. Although his body made no sound when he landed, there was no way to avoid the process of water dripping.

At this time, the seawater wetted the masked man's clothes, making him look wet.

"This is probably a process like this, do you see clearly?"

Lu Zhengyi took off the burlap bag from his mask and moved his eyes to Li Tianran next to him.

"I know, I know."

Li Tianran nodded in a daze.
