Chapter 43
When Jiang Liu blocked the end of the alley with bricks and stones, the start date of "Wulin Gaiden" arrived.

10 month 1 number.

Jiang Liu got up early. Before dawn, he jumped over Gao Da Mao and urged the crew's logistics staff to get up and set up the square table.

Dawn rises in the east, and the river flows again, calling people to the restaurant to pick up meals.

When daylight came, Jiang Liu knocked on the door one by one, making everyone in the crew, especially the girl, unable to sleep and forced to get up.

"Yeah" Yan Ni stretched his body with disheveled hair.

"There's something wrong."

Gao Yuanyuan grumbled and pulled the quilt over his head. Only his exposed toes were struggling against the will to get up.

"Get up." Liu Tao responded.

At the same time, Jiang Chao turned over and said to Sha Yi, who was in the same room: "Director Jiang seems a little excited."

"It's a bit." Sha Yi rubbed his eyes and agreed with Jiang Chao's point of view.

Jiang Liu was indeed a little uncontrollably excited.

Because "Wulin Gaiden" is the first film in the true sense that he has directed in his two lifetimes.

In his personal mind, "Along the Railway" is a documentary, not a drama, and the shooting period only lasted a few days.

"Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger" is a play and a big movie.

But the filming of "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger" was painful for him.

The filming of "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger" was like playing hide-and-seek with others. He was always nervous and frightened, and he did not enjoy the fun of being a director or filming at all.

"Wulin Gaiden" is completely different.

"Wulin Gaiden" has sufficient filming funds, a complete script, behind-the-scenes, and more actors.

The most important thing is that he can let go of his arms and shoot openly.

"Director, the food picker is back." Someone shouted.

"Serve the table." Jiang Liu shouted at the entrance of the alley, locked the house, and walked towards the front door of 'Tongfu Inn' with a piece of Chinese food between his legs.

After trotting to the front door, all the crew members were already gathered at the entrance of Tongfu Inn, and the scene was filled with laughter and laughter.

Jiang Liu couldn't help but feel happy when he saw this scene.

As a crew director, he is happy to see actors mingle with actors and actors behind the scenes.

Filming is a team effort and requires a certain amount of tacit understanding.

In addition, everyone in the crew can chat together, which shows that there are few gaps in the crew.

Without barriers, there would be less overt and covert fights in the crew. For Jiang Liu, harmony among the crew is extremely important.

Every director wants a stable and efficient team.

"Let's stop talking now. Everyone go to the front to get some incense. Each person pinches three sticks."

Jiang Liu roared loudly, the timid one hugged his head, and the bold one dragged his feet.

Especially the leading actors.

Yan Ni, Sha Yi, Jiang Chao, Gao Yuanyuan and other leading actors have been staying at the film and television base for nearly a week.

The few of them usually exchange words, visit each other, chat and have become familiar with each other. They often hug together to keep warm when facing director Jiang Liu.

It's not that they were hostile to Jiang Liu.

He just regarded Jiang Liu as his peer.

The interaction between peers is nothing more than laughing and scolding.

"Wulin Gaiden" itself is a comedy, with many hilarious lines, and it was fun to tease the director during the dialogue.

Jiang Liu also had a good personality. Not only did he not scold them loudly, but he would occasionally make jokes together.

As a result, several people became more and more unscrupulous.But they didn't know that every time this happens, Jiang Liu would always sneer in his heart, "When the filming officially starts, I will let you all know why the flowers are so red!"

"Come on. Make way, make way, don't touch me."

Tall Mao came in a hurry with a roasted suckling pig. Everyone dodged and stared at this scene curiously.

The average age of the cast of "Wulin Gaiden" is less than 26 years old, and the several leading actors are no different from newcomers.

Even if they have acted in one or two dramas, they are all mainland film and television dramas. It was the first time for most of the people present to participate in the worship ceremony.

"I heard that Liu'er's five elements are short of water, so he especially believes in the things of gods and gods."

Yan Ni whispered to Gao Yuanyuan next to her.

"No wonder there is so much water in the name." Gao Yuanyuan suddenly realized: "How did Sister Ni know?"

"Sha Yi said that a classmate of Liu'er told the story on the crew of "Getting on the Wrong Sedan and Marrying the Right Man."

"Then let's be serious and don't violate the director's taboo."

"Everyone be silent, everyone, listen up. The crew will worship God immediately. Anyone who is in conflict with their personal beliefs does not need to participate."

"Everyone who participates should silently recite two words of good luck when putting incense in the incense burner. May you be safe!"

"Now, everyone, led by Director Jiang and Producer Xing, lined up in two teams...fired cannons, and the worship ceremony of the crew of "Wulin Gaiden" officially began."

The sound of firecrackers spread in all directions, with Jiang Liu taking the lead to step forward, bending down, praying, and placing incense, followed by producer Xing Aina.

Assistant Director Ning Hao

severe photography director
Starring Sha Yi, Yan Ni, Gao Yuanyuan, Jiang Chao, Yu Entai, Fan Ming and Xiao Jian.

and Liu Tao, who plays Zhu Wushuang.

Wang Baoqiang who guest-starred as Ji Wuming, style and makeup artist Han Li, lighting artist, etc.

After the worship ceremony ended, the logistics staff handled the food on the Sifang table, and Jiang Liu and other front and backstage staff entered the 'Tongfu Inn'.

"We are now ready to officially start shooting. Before we start shooting, I will say a few things. It is a courtesy first and then a move."

"First, since the script of "Wulin Gaiden" has 76 episodes, the total filming time is expected to be four to five months, which may delay everyone's reunion with their families during the Spring Festival. I would like to apologize in advance."

"But don't worry too much. Maybe no one likes or watches the 20 episodes of "Wulin Gaiden", so we don't have to film the follow-up. You can also go home on time to reunite with your family. The only pity is that you are paid less for the film. ”

"Take Shai as an example. For the complete 76 episodes of "Wulin Gaiden", his scenes should be able to be edited into more than 20 episodes, with a total salary of 6 to 20 yuan. If only [-] episodes are filmed, his salary will be reduced by more than half."

After briefly talking about the difference in benefits for the protagonists between the 20th and 76th episodes of "Wulin Gaiden", Jiang Liu's face turned cold: "Secondly, let's talk about the set rules, or my set rules."

"I have two rules on the set. First, I don't want an actor to tell me that I haven't memorized the lines just before filming starts. As for the lines, I don't require you to recite the entire script, but you must have a deep impression."

"Two, mobile phones are not allowed on the set. Except for plots, work, and special circumstances, private chairs and stools are not allowed on the set. If you can stand and dialogue, don't sit down, unless you consider yourself to be a senior and want special treatment from me. "

"Third, the crew works ten hours a day, regardless of day or night."

"That's all. I hope everyone here will abide by the regulations. In a few months, we will all leave Feilong Film and Television Base together, one by one."

"Liu...Director Jiang, this isn't right. The script says it's a seated scene, so we can't sit down and read our lines?"

Under the look of Yan Ni and others, Sha Yi, who thought he was most familiar with Jiang Liu, asked with an awkward smile.

Jiang Liu said without hesitation: "It's not allowed. The actors on the set will not have rest time, otherwise we will not send you an announcement."

Everyone at the scene looked at each other in blank dismay.

No matter how they had never filmed a movie, they realized that the crew of "Wulin Gaiden" was different from other crews.

First of all, which crew shoots ten hours a day?
Furthermore, which production crew would be so strict that they wouldn’t even allow anyone to sit down during breaks.

At this point, the cast, crew, and people behind the scenes began to realize that something was wrong.

But it was too late.
