King of soft rice

Chapter 55 – Little life is worthless
Just as Zhai Nan expected, when Mr. Zhang and Mr. Wei arrived on the stage, their hands, eyes and figures drove Zhai Nan and Zhao Qianqian away for several blocks in an instant.

The confidence that was lost in the background just now was regained at this moment.

And Zhai Nan also had a feeling of being led to act.It was Teacher Zhang and Teacher Wei who brought him and Zhao Qianqian to perform on this stage.

Seeing Zhao Qianqian and Mr. Zhang stepping up to the stage slowly, Zhao Qianqian sang: "Leaving Emei and going to the south of the Yangtze River, there are such beautiful lakes and mountains in the world! The Baochu Pagoda on this side is reflected in the waves, and the good buildings on the other side are close by. Three pools. The willow silk on the Su Causeway pulls the boat lightly, and the peach and plum blossoms in the trembling wind seem to be shy of the spring cold."

"Although it is called Broken Bridge, the bridge has never been broken. There are tourists in twos and threes on the bridge pavilion. It seems that such a beautiful lake and mountain are full of frowns, and it is not in vain to go down to Emei. The weather changes suddenly, the wind is violent, the clouds are dark, It's like Luoyang Dao met Pan An by chance."

Zhai Nan came on stage, and immediately sang: "Just now the tomb-sweeping spirit disappeared, but when he came back, the wind and rain suddenly blurred. The wind blows the willow leaves, and the rain beats the peach blossoms. How can there be leisure in the busy schedule? How can it be appropriate to shelter from the rain under the willows?"

Teacher Wei played the role of the boatman, and then sang: "The oar cuts through the pile of white duckweed, and sees off the plum blossoms in Gushan. I bought a pot of wine by the lake, and I was intoxicated by the wind and rain. I love the West Lake in February, with slanting wind and drizzle. Sending off the cruise ship. The tenth Xiu came to cross the boat, and the hundredth Xiu came to sleep together."

……

After these people sang in turn, the actors off the stage also applauded one after another.

Director Sun watched the performance of several people through the monitor and was very satisfied.Especially Zhai Nan's big voice, Xu Xian, although he still doesn't approve of it, but he has to admit that Zhai Nan's singing is really good.

Judging from the reactions of these extras, they were all sincerely applauding, not just responding to the director's random shouting.

While watching the performance on stage, Director Sun had a new idea in his heart.Originally, this scene was at the beginning of the film.When Zhao Qianqian was performing, he was robbed by bandits. How did he fight in the bandits' cottage?

In the end, he assisted the knights of the rivers and lakes, cooperated with the inside and the outside, and completely defeated the story of this copycat.And the core of the story is the character of Zhao Qianqian.It is about the sufferings of being an actor in the feudal society.

When Director Sun changed the play, he wanted to add a scene in which Zhai Nan, a famous actor, bullied Zhao Qianqian, a newcomer to the troupe.But because Mr. Zhang and Mr. Wei are not very good at film and television shooting, this one has never been passed.

But looking at the four people performing on stage, Director Sun had a new idea.

He felt that since Zhai Nan's singing method would cause controversy, it would be better to put their performance in the opening credits.The singing by four people is brought into the plot.

Sometimes the expressive power of sound is indeed easier to bring people into it than the picture.

Director Sun thought more and more smoothly, and even forgot to call 'ka'. He didn't come back to his senses until the assistant director pushed him twice, and quickly shouted "ka!"

At this time, Zhai Nan, Teacher Wei, and Teacher Zhang hurried over.

Teacher Wei asked with some concern: "Director, how was the performance just now? Is there any problem?"

Director Sun waved his hand and said, "No problem, it's really exciting, I was so fascinated by watching it."

Teacher Wei breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and said with a smile, "That's good, that's good."

But just after Mr. Wei finished speaking, Director Sun continued: "It's just..."

Teacher Zhang quickly asked, "But what?"

Director Sun said with a smile: "But it's not enjoyable to watch. I hope I can sing more, so that the robbers come out later."

Hearing this, several people breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhai Nan smiled and said, "Okay, Director Sun, if you are willing to listen, then sing a few more lines."

Director Sun nodded, "Okay, I'll go and make arrangements. You guys rest for a while." After speaking, he hurriedly found the assistant director, and other people discussed the changed plot.

After seeing everyone in the film crew busy inside and out, Director Sun walked over and recounted the scene.

In fact, the change of this scene is not very troublesome for the few of them.Just changed the original 3 minutes to 5 minutes.It's just that after the filming of this scene, the recording may have to be re-recorded, but this will require another appointment.

After the agreement was over, several people came to the stage again and started the performance.

And this time the shooting was obviously a little more complicated than the previous one. The big rocker switched between long and close shots a few times. It seemed that Director Sun wanted to make this scene bigger.

Zhai Nan and the others didn't pay attention to these, and continued to act step by step.

After singing for almost 5 minutes, the robbers rushed in.When the bandit leader came up, he killed the old man of the family with a single knife.

It is also pity for this old man, he is quite old, and he was killed twice today.

On the other hand, Zhai Nan was extremely flustered. Seeing the bandits coming in, he immediately scrambled and fled off the stage.Teacher Wei and Teacher Zhang, although they are not used to this kind of performance, but this paragraph is just for them to escape, it is not too troublesome, just escape to the backstage.

At this point in the performance, the roles of Zhai Nan and the others are almost over.After a while, I will add a few shots of fleeing in a hurry, and then I can call it a day and go home.

The rest is about Zhao Qianqian and the robbers, all he needs to do is perform in front of the stage.

At this time, Director Sun yelled "Cut!", and the scene was successfully over.

Afterwards, it was backstage, and began to film the scenes of the troupe fleeing in a panic and the robbers slashing and killing wantonly.

Originally in this scene, Zhai Nan's character should be able to escape.Because Director Sun also wanted to show Zhai Nan a few more shots, and arranged for him to report to the government.

But Zhai Nan offered to play this role to death.

It's not that Zhai Nan doesn't want to increase his exposure, but that he doesn't want to keep getting entangled with Zhao Qianqian.Leaving aside Zhao Qianqian's crazy male fans, Han Xia's chasing soul and choking his life alone already made Zhai Nan shudder.

And playing the dead, there are red envelopes.Zhai Nan would naturally not let go of this opportunity if he could get that extra money.Strongly urge Director Sun to let the robbers kill him with a knife in the background.

Director Sun also felt angry and funny, and originally wanted to add more drama to Zhai Nan, but Zhai Nan "court death" himself.

In fact, it was a little troublesome for Director Sun to add a scene to Zhai Nan, because the scene of reporting to the official had already been filmed by other actors.

And Director Sun wanted Zhai Nan to escape and report to the police, because he also wanted to make this character more plump.But now that Zhai Nan is looking for a dead end, Director Sun also saves so much trouble, and directly agrees to Zhai Nan's request.

Originally, the crew was in the mountains for the first few months, because the robbers' cottage was the main place for filming.

It wasn't until these two days that I returned to the capital, looking for a place to shoot this scene in the compound in the film and television city.When the remaining shots are all shot, the film can basically go into post-production and start editing.

Therefore, Zhai Nan's character is not dead, and it does not have a great impact on the whole film.So Zhai Nan offered to ask for death, and Director Sun agreed.

However, Director Sun was quite interesting. After Zhai Nan was stabbed, he also gave a close-up to deepen the image of this character.

When Zhai Nan wiped off the syrup and blood stains on his body and took the red envelope sent by the assistant director, Zhai Nan's tears almost didn't fall down.

It's only 100 yuan, and my little life is too worthless.

This business lost a lot!
