Become famous another day.

Although Huang Tianlin had doubts in his heart, he still cooperated with Lu Yanhe and performed such a scene in front of Huang Feng.

"Can we act?" Lu Yanhe said to Huang Tianlin impatiently, "Director, I'm very busy, okay? I can't even rehearse, how are we going to shoot later?"

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Yanhe said this, Huang Feng, who was pestering his mother for ice cream, immediately turned around and looked at them.

Qin Shulan was right, Huang Feng was indeed a very smart and perceptive child.

Huang Tianlin cooperated well and pretended not to notice that Huang Feng had already looked at him, and said: "He is still a child, you should be more patient."

"There are only actors here, no children." Lu Yanhe said irritably, "If you guys do this, I really can't continue filming."

After saying that, Lu Yanhe turned and left.

Huang Tianlin sighed.

Glancing out of the corner of his eye, Huang Feng's expression of "I want to play! I'm not serious!" had completely disappeared.

Ten minutes later, Lu Yanhe was invited out again.

He looked at Huang Feng: "Can we perform now?"

Huang Feng pursed his lips, his eyes became a little timid, "I can act."

As soon as the scene started, Lu Yanhe was shocked by Huang Feng's serious devotion.

When Huang Feng acted like the younger brother in the script, he acted like a rogue to him, and after being scolded by him, he started to fight with him. The older brother played by Lu Yanhe couldn't stand it and elbowed him back, and Huang Feng burst into tears.

This was just a rehearsal, but Huang Feng started crying as soon as he said he would.

My eyes turned red in an instant and tears welled up.

"..."

This kid is really wronged.

Lu Yanhe sighed in his heart.

He had to pat his head to comfort him.
-
So, after two hours on the set, they finally entered the formal shooting stage.

Lu Yanhe finally realized how picky Huang Tianlin was about the camera.

Huang Tianlin will never call a halt before you finish the scene.

Even if your performance is not to his liking, he will not stop you but wait until you finish and then tell you where you can make adjustments.

Each one comes complete.

But acting like this is quite energy-consuming.

Therefore, after finishing each performance, Huang Tianlin would let them rest for ten to twenty minutes.

After the fifth take, Huang Tianlin was still not satisfied. This time he was dissatisfied because he felt that the angle was wrong when Lu Yanhe looked up in disbelief after being slapped by Qin Shulan.

Everyone in Lu Yanhe was stunned.

What the hell?
Wrong angle?

Huang Tianlin immediately demonstrated to him how he wanted Lu Yanhe to raise his head.

Basically, the neck is just raised an inch, the key is the eyes.

What Huang Tianlin wanted was a pair of angry eyes that looked up from the bottom.

Lu Yanhe nodded, indicating that he understood.

For this scene, Huang Tianlin did not start over from the beginning, but directly asked Qin Shulan and Lu Yanhe to start with slapping each other.

There were two cameras, one for Qin Shulan and one for Lu Yanhe.

Huang Tianlin said: "Sister Lan, for this slap, I want it to feel very crisp, clean, loud but not heavy."

Qin Shulan: “…”

However, it is obvious that Qin Shulan has already adapted to Huang Tianlin's style.

She nodded and said to Lu Yanhe, "Yanhe, cover your face with your hands first, let me try."

Lu Yanhe said: "It's okay, just come directly."

"Don't come directly." Qin Shulan said to Lu Yanhe, "Trust me."

Lu Yanhe felt that Qin Shulan's words seemed to have hidden meanings, but since Qin Shulan said so, of course he was willing.

Between actors, especially mature actors, sometimes the simplest and most convenient way is to just do it directly, and it can be done in one or two times.

Then, Lu Yanhe understood why Qin Shulan said, "Don't come directly."

Qin Shulan tried to hit the back of his hand several times, but Huang Tianlin was not satisfied.

Either it feels slow or it feels heavy...

Huang Tianlin said: "This slap is her anger towards her brother. This anger is not to blame her brother for bullying his younger brother, but why he couldn't help her share the burden when she was so hard, but instead made trouble for her. Sister Lan, your slap is not to show the feeling of "why are you bullying your brother", but to show the feeling of "can you be more sensible and save me some trouble"."

Lu Yanhe felt a headache for Qin Shulan.

The more mysterious the feeling is, the harder it is for the actors to perform what the director wants.

There is no way to quantify feelings. They can only be understood, not expressed in words.

Qin Shulan walked aside, found a corner, and thought alone.

Huang Tianlin didn't urge him either.

The scene rested again.

Lu Yanhe sat on the sofa and wanted to drink some water, but Huang Tianlin stopped him.

"You won't even let me drink water?"

"It's better to have a little anxiety in the mouth." Huang Tianlin said.

Lu Yanhe: "...Then I can drink it with a straw, right?"

Huang Tianlin: "Okay, then don't drink too much."

"..." Lu Yanhe really wanted to complain in his heart, "There are so many things to do."

Lu Yanhe was also silently thinking about the "angry look" that Huang Tianlin wanted.

There has to be a little bit of grievance in anger, but not too much. If there is too much, the character will be wrong.

——You beat me without knowing the reason. Why don't you ask whether I bullied him or he was the one who started it? He is your son, so I am not your son anymore? !

Lu Yanhe gave himself such a psychological driving line to mobilize his emotions.
-
Today is Lu Yanhe's first day of filming, so Yuan Hai has been staying on the set, just in case something unexpected happens so he can solve it as soon as possible.

Yuan Hai noticed that Lu Yanhe basically stayed alone on the set. Although Zou Dong and Wang Biao were also there, neither of them stayed close to Lu Yanhe, which surprised him.

Basically, any celebrity will be surrounded by assistants when there is no camera filming.

Although Wang Biao is Lu Yanhe's executive agent, he was actually Lu Yanhe's assistant and still shoulders this responsibility.

But most of the time, Wang Biao either chats with the people next to him or lowers his head to process some messages on his tablet.

Yuan Hai thought about it and asked Wang Biao whether it was necessary to arrange an assistant for Lu Yanhe during this period.

He thought that after Wang Biao became an executive agent, he was no longer willing to do small jobs like assistant.

Wang Biao was stunned by Yuan Hai's enthusiastic proposal.

What the hell, arranging someone to take his job right in front of him?
"No, thank you, Mr. Yuan." Wang Biao said, "We already have enough manpower now. Brother Lu is not the kind of star who needs seven or eight people to follow him when he goes out - uh, I mean the assistant team, not the bodyguards. This place is not in the city, it's quite remote, so we still brought some bodyguards, just in case."

Yuan Hai nodded to show his understanding.

"Actually, I should have thought of hiring bodyguards here in advance."

Wang Biao smiled and said it was okay.

He thought, even if you hired someone, we wouldn't dare to use him. Who knows who you hired?

When it comes to things like this that involve life and property, Wang Biao and Chen Ziyan have the same idea: they would rather spend more money to buy security to avoid any accidents.

Yuan Hai asked: "I see Yan He is always alone, doesn't he need an assistant to follow him?"

"I'm following you." Wang Biao said immediately, and then realized why Yuan Hai asked that. He smiled and explained, "On the set, unless Brother Lu wants to find us, we won't stay with him, otherwise he will blame us for disturbing him from staying in character."

Yuan Hai came to his senses and realized that he had misunderstood.

"So that's it."

"Mr. Yuan, do you have any plans after filming "Tropical Rainy Season"? " Wang Biao asked.

Yuan Hai said: "I plan to screen it at several international film festivals first, hoping to be shortlisted for the main competition unit of one of the four major international film festivals. If I can be shortlisted, it will be more beneficial for the subsequent promotion of the film."

Wang Biao nodded and asked, "Have you decided on a distribution company for this movie?"

"Several companies have contacted us and the negotiations are still ongoing," Yuan Hai said.

"Have any Chinese film companies contacted us?" Wang Biao asked.

"Yes, of course. In fact, China is the country most interested in this film. Several companies have inquired about it and offered very high prices," Yuan Hai said. "But I don't know much about Chinese film companies. I would like to ask for your opinions."

Wang Biao was a little surprised: "Are there any film companies offering high prices now?"

Yuan Hai: "It may not be considered a high price for Yan He's past works, but for our film, it is a very high price."

Wang Biao thought that "Tropical Rain Season" was an art film. Based on the box office performance of art films starring Lu Yanhe in the past, everyone would do the math. The average domestic film company would only offer a price between 200 and 300 million US dollars at most.

This number is indeed very high for "Tropical Rain Season".

Wang Biao said, "Mr. Yuan, we did not participate in the production of the movie "Tropical Rain Season" in any other capacity. I will report to Sister Zi Yan later. Regarding the distribution of this movie in China, perhaps she can give you more accurate suggestions."

Yuan Hai nodded.

Wang Biao smiled and asked, "Mr. Yuan, I noticed that in addition to being the producer for Director Huang Tianlin, you also produced several other films. Some media said that you are a mentor to young new directors in Malaysia. Do you pay special attention to young directors?"

Yuan Hai nodded. "The film market in Malaysia is not big, and the film industry is not complete. It is actually very difficult for filmmakers to stand out. I want to push our Malaysian filmmakers to a bigger stage and let more people around the world know them, but I often feel powerless. Vietnam has only produced one director, Song Muching, over the years, and no one else. Of course, at least they are doing better than us, and they still have Song Muching."

Wang Biao nodded.

He actually had some feelings about what Yuan Hai said.

He and Lu Yanhe have participated in many international film festivals. In addition to those film crews with big directors, big stars and big studios behind them, there are actually many small crews without stars and not noticed by the media.

Wang Biao's most profound impression was that he and Lu Yanhe went to see a Polish film at the Sitour Film Festival. The film was not shortlisted for the main competition unit, but for another unit. The screening time was not very good, the director was not famous, and the actors were all Polish actors, who were not famous either. Of course, because of the film festival, there were still many audiences in the cinema - this is why many people say that the atmosphere of the film festival will make people who really love movies happy.

What did the film production company do? It was very considerate and placed a leaflet-like booklet on each person's seat, which introduced the theme, content and director's idea of ​​the film in English and with pictures, and also gave a brief introduction to the main creative staff of the film.

Later, Wang Biao saw a report in which the producer of the film was interviewed. When asked why he prepared such a small booklet, the producer said, "Because the budget for our film is very limited, even if everyone wants to come to West Tull to meet everyone, we cannot afford the air tickets and accommodation for so many people. We also don't have enough budget to hire the media to promote our film. We can only use the little money we have to make these booklets and bring them to West Tull so that the audience who sees the film can learn more about our film."

Wang Biao felt particularly sad when he heard this.

Small country, small crew, tight budget, but still hope to be seen.

Film has never been just an art.

The last words the producer said in the interview were: "I hope everyone can see that we in Poland are still making movies. We have our own Polish filmmakers and our own film culture."

In fact, filmmakers from any country may have such thoughts in their minds.

It all starts with oneself, and then inevitably one looks back on the past in one's life, the times and history.

Where people come from, there their souls return.

Wang Biao smiled and said to Yuan Hai, "I believe that you, Mr. Yuan, will definitely be able to take your Malaysian films to the world. In fact, you have come a long way, haven't you? Several of the films you have produced before have actually been shortlisted for influential international film festivals."

Yuan Hai shook his head and smiled.

"It's not that being shortlisted for an international film festival means you've made it to the world. In the film industry, winning awards is important, but what's more important is whether you have weight in the eyes of your peers and the audience." Yuan Hai said, "So, I really feel like it's a blessing that Yan He was able to come and film "Tropical Rain Season" this time."

Wang Biao glanced at Huang Tianlin thoughtfully and said, "But it seems that Director Huang doesn't really want to cooperate with Brother Xiao Lu. The last time he came, he said some unpleasant things to Brother Xiao Lu, and he wasn't very enthusiastic this time either."

Yuan Hai said: "I want to apologize on behalf of Tianlin, he actually——"

Yuan Hai hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, there's no point in me saying this. If you spend more time with him, you'll know what kind of person he is. Give him some time."

Wang Biao actually wanted to ask Yuan Hai why, when he had collaborated with many young creators, he would collaborate for the second time with Huang Tianlin, a man with a bad temper and quite arrogant?
Wang Biao could see that Huang Tianlin was not only not very enthusiastic towards Lu Yanhe, but also not very polite towards the producer Yuan Hai.

Simply put, in Wang Biao's eyes, director Huang Tianlin has character flaws.

Even though Lu Yanhe told him so much, Wang Biao still felt it was not worth it for Lu Yanhe.

With Xiao Lu's current fame and status, there are plenty of young and talented directors out there who he wants to work with, and there are so many who appear at film festivals every year. Why does he specifically choose Huang Tianlin to work with?
-
In the evening, Wang Biao went out to make coffee for Lu Yanhe.

There is another scene to be filmed tonight and I don’t know when it will be finished.

There was no coffee machine on site, so Wang Biao brought some instant coffee liquid and mixed it with the iced orange juice in Lu Yanhe's thermos.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Lu Yanhe doesn't like drinking plain American coffee because it's too bitter, so he always has to add something else.

"What is this?" Huang Feng suddenly ran over, raised his head, and looked at him with confusion and curiosity.

Wang Biao actually likes this kid very much.

Although he is talkative and active, he is very smart and likable.

"Coffee." said Wang Biao.

"It's already evening and you're still drinking coffee?" Huang Feng asked in shock.

“Have you ever had coffee?”

"No, my mother won't let me drink it."

"Then how do you know that you can't drink coffee at night?"

"My mother said that after drinking this, I can't sleep." Huang Feng said, "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to sleep at night?"

"I'm not drinking this. It's for your brother Lu Yanhe. He's going to film with you tonight, so he needs this to stay energetic."

Huang Feng immediately exclaimed.

He pursed his lips.

"He's so annoying, why do you want to be his assistant?" Huang Feng asked.

Wang Biao smiled and asked, "Why do you think he is annoying?"

"I asked him if he could buy me a popsicle, but he didn't want to, and he insisted that I could have one only if my parents agreed. Doesn't that mean he didn't want to buy me one?" Huang Feng pouted. "Besides, when he gets angry, he's like a monster."

Wang Biao: "Actually, he is a very nice person."

"you are lying."

"Really." Wang Biao said, "Look, you made so many mistakes this afternoon. Did he blame you?"

"He got mad at my uncle."

"That's because you didn't want to rehearse seriously." Wang Biao said, "You deliberately didn't cooperate, so of course he got angry, but as long as you acted seriously afterwards, even if something went wrong, did he get angry?"

"…But he can't be mad at me all the time, right? I'm still a child."

"You are twelve years old, old enough to go to junior high school, and you are still a child." Wang Biao complained mercilessly.

Huang Feng: "...I haven't started yet. It will take more than two months before I go to junior high school. I'm still a primary school student now!"

"It's already June, and you haven't graduated from elementary school yet?"

"..." Huang Feng mumbled, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't find the words. Finally, he smacked his lips in frustration and said, "I won't talk to you anymore."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and ran away.

Wang Biao smiled.

Then, Huang Feng crashed into the oncoming Huang Tianlin like a cannonball.

Huang Tianlin was hit hard and lost his balance, stumbling backwards.

Huang Feng yelled.

Huang Tianlin was staggering, and his first reaction was to raise his hand to pull Huang Feng, who had also lost his balance and was falling to the ground.

Huang Feng fell directly on him.

"Hiss——" Huang Tianlin took a breath.

Wang Biao quickly screwed on the thermos, put it in the car, and went over.

"Director Huang, are you okay?"

Wang Biao noticed that Huang Tianlin was supporting himself on the ground with his elbows, with his palms held motionless in a somewhat strange posture.

Huang Tianlin frowned, with a look of pain on his face, "Huang Feng, are you going to murder me?"

Huang Feng got up and said, "I'm sorry, I was wrong."

Apologize honestly and don't be naughty at all.

Wang Biao helped Huang Tianlin up.

Huang Tianlin grabbed his left arm with his right hand and looked at his left wrist.

"Did you twist your body when you were supporting yourself on the ground just now?" Wang Biao asked.

Huang Tianlin: "I don't know, I hope it's okay, I'll go find some medicine to spray it."

He glared at Huang Feng and said, "If you run around again, I'll beat you up!"

Huang Feng pursed his lips.

Wang Biao touched Huang Feng's head and said, "There are so many people coming and going in this crew, and you are running around. You will definitely bump into people. Look, now you have bumped into a real monster."

Huang Feng: "...My uncle is not a monster."

"He got angry with you just now, but he's not a monster. But when your brother Lu Yanhe gets angry with you, he becomes a monster? How can you be so hypocritical at such a young age?" Wang Biao asked with a smile.

Huang Feng: "My uncle just has a bad temper."

"...You know this now?"

"Of course I know." Huang Feng said firmly, "When I was a child, whenever someone bullied me, it was my uncle who helped me!"

"Bully you? You don't look like someone who would be bullied. It's good enough that you don't bully others."

"They all have fathers, but I don't have one." Huang Feng lowered his head and said with a pursed mouth.

Wang Biao was stunned.

"what?"

"When I was little, my mother had to go out to work and earn money, so my uncle was the one who took care of me. Some of my classmates laughed at me for not having a father and said I was an orphan. My uncle would scold them and tell them that if they said such things again, he would make them orphans." Huang Feng said, "Although many people at that time said that he had no job and relied on my mother to support him, and he had no future."

Wang Biao scratched his head.

"So he's a film director now, what a promising career."

Huang Feng: "Of course, my uncle is very good. He has been good at writing since he was young."

"How do you know he has been good at writing since he was young? How old are you?"

"Because there are many articles he wrote in the past pasted on the walls of my house. They were all posted by my mother." Huang Feng looked proud.

Wang Biao: "I didn't expect you to be an uncle-con."

"What does 'uncle control' mean?" Huang Feng didn't understand.

"It's nothing, you don't need to understand." Wang Biao smiled.
-
The scene to be filmed at night was about the older brother who was slapped by his mother in the movie. He came back late at night, went to his room, and went to bed. Suddenly, his younger brother got down from his bed and wanted to sleep in his bed with him.

His brother pushed him away.

My brother just sat on the edge of the bed, pursing his lips.

After a while, his brother looked at his pitiful appearance and let him come up.

A very simple play.

If it were in another crew, Lu Yanhe felt that it would probably only take two or three takes to pass.

However, after seeing how meticulous Huang Tianlin was about details during the day, Lu Yanhe had no idea when he would be able to finish filming this scene.

Fortunately, Lu Yanhe is not the kind of actor who would think, “I will be very anxious if I can’t shoot today’s scene.”

He is an actor who can really make himself clear on the set - these things are the director's concern, he is just an actor, he is only responsible for his role and performance. If the director is unwilling to go through it and wants to polish it over and over again, then polish it.

Lu Yanhe is willing to perform more times. He is not the kind of person who is overconfident and thinks that performing more times is a waste of time. Instead, he likes to adjust himself again and again, and find a scene that can make him show a sense of quality.

As expected, the scene that night did not go so smoothly.

It’s just that what wasn’t going well was not the actors, but the lighting.

Huang Tianlin was very dissatisfied with the lighting effects of the film, complaining that it was too bright. After the lighting technician dimmed the light, he complained that the picture was not good-looking.

The lighting crew was tormented by him for almost an hour and they were sweating a lot.

Lu Yanhe just lay on the bed.

After waiting for another hour, Huang Tianlin finally found a shooting effect that satisfied him with the photographer and lighting technician.

Huang Tianlin decided to put this scene in one long shot.

The camera is facing diagonally towards the door, so that when the brother played by Lu Yanhe enters the room, the door opens and light from outside leaks in. At the same time, a beam of light is shone outside their bedroom window to simulate the effect of moonlight.

The room can present an effect of being quiet at night but with clear vision.

But this will cause a problem.

In this scene, the actors' performances cannot be presented well.

You know, Lu Yanhe didn't have many scenes in this movie. With this treatment, this scene could have been a very good scene that could have showcased Lu Yanhe's acting ability. His change in attitude towards his brother was used to show a change in emotions and a change in the relationship. Now it has to be presented through camera shots rather than a performance.

After this happened, even Huang Tianlin felt a little guilty.

He gritted his teeth and explained to Lu Yanhe why he shot it that way.

"I wanted this scene to form a very sharp contrast with the close, tense quarrels during the day. No matter how fierce the quarrels were during the day, at night, everything settled down and became quiet. The relationship between the family members could be transitioned to a certain level without much words, just a few small movements and a little tension and relaxation," said Huang Tianlin. "Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Lu Yanhe smiled and nodded: "I understand. Just shoot it as you want. If you feel bad for me, you can shoot another version focusing on the actors' performances. You can choose which one you want to use in the end."

Huang Tianlin was surprised by his generosity.

Huang Tianlin had the guts to confidently raise various issues with Lu Yanhe regarding the angle of his head raising and the content of his eyes during the day because he believed that what he raised would make Lu Yanhe's performance better, more accurate, and more charming and rich in character, so he was so confident.

But now he doesn't have the confidence - because this means sacrificing the actors' performance space to achieve a certain film rhythm and beauty in the shot.

As a result, Lu Yanhe agreed without hesitation.

Seeing Huang Tianlin's shock, Lu Yanhe said, "We Chinese all have a kind of freehand beauty. I know what kind of effect you want to shoot this scene. I understand it after you say it."

As the saying goes, still waters run deep.

Huang Tianlin's eyes changed slightly.
