Rebirth of the rich and famous

Chapter 43
"Add more powder, I want her skin to look more yellow..." The director with a big beard looked up, then lowered his head again, and he didn't know what he was looking at.

Song Xiaoye moved her toes and looked to the side with some embarrassment.

This shooting scene was completely different from what she had imagined. There was no set up scene, just a room surrounded by blue curtains.

Song Xiaoye knew what it was, shooting with blue screen, adding background and special effects in post-production.This kind of shooting technique is not uncommon after a few years.It is even heard that most of the film and television dramas in the United States adopt this method. Instead of spending hundreds of millions of dollars to build a "big ship" like shooting movies in the past, the funds are spent on post-production computer special effects.

However, for a complete novice, standing in front of the blue screen and performing like this is very unimaginative, okay?Looking at the blue cloth around her, and looking at the A4 paper in her hand that was said to be her script, Song Xiaoye really wanted to cry.

Ancient Chinese temples, mysterious and tall places?

Where is the feeling of an ancient temple here?She really can't find half a point at all, doesn't it feel good?
"Hey, girl, can you concentrate on it?" The martial arts instructor who had just instructed her and James to dismantle moves frowned and scolded her.

Director Wu, who was called Su, came from Hong Kong just like her.I heard that he was quite well-known in the Hong Kong entertainment circle back then.Hong Kong movies did not lag behind, and went directly to Hollywood.However, with a passion, but like now, he can only live without worrying about food and clothing.

"I can't help it, I'm not Master Yuan, I don't have that ability!" Joking, self-deprecating, and being in a bad mood were all there, but once he got to work, Su's seriousness convinced everyone in the crew.Even the bearded director respected Su's opinion when shooting the fighting scenes.

Originally Song Xiaoye wanted to use her own sword, but was taught a lesson by Su Hao.

"With a real sword, do you want to murder or sue?!"

Looking at the prop sword in his hand, Song Xiaoye muttered in his heart.Holding this plastic sword, I really don't feel it.However, if she really wants to be an actress, she has to get used to these props.

"OK..." Finally, I felt that Song Xiaoye's complexion was yellow enough to resemble the imagined Chinese.When the bearded director gave an order, everyone became nervous.

After rehearsing more than a dozen times, Song Xiaoye has long been familiar with the routines used in filming.Although she has only learned Kung Fu for a month, it's just a show, but fortunately, the filming is just like a senior brother's tricks. It's just a routine, and it's not too difficult.

It's just that this is Song Xiaoye's first filming. As soon as she stood in front of the camera, her eyes didn't know what was going on, so she aimed at the camera, unconsciously wanting to find the camera.

Because of this, the bearded director cursed directly.She scolded fiercely, but she was also helpless, "An outsider is an outsider——Shanni, next time you find such an extra, don't do it!"

After being scolded until his face turned blue, Song Xiaoye's movements became even more stiff.Fortunately, his partner James is not such a grumpy person.

"Song, don't look at the camera, just pretend you don't have that thing... Believe me, I'm standing where the camera can shoot. You just need to focus on me - look at me..."

Unknowingly, her eyes were fixed on James, and Song Xiaoye blinked. Although she knew what James meant, she didn't think it would have any effect.

It seemed only in the blink of an eye that James' expression changed.One second, or two seconds, that good-natured Mr. Nice, who is not scary even in vampire makeup, suddenly turned into that murderous, cold-blooded and cruel Spike.

Song Xiaoye was a little frightened. Although it was a performance, the feeling of one person suddenly becoming another person within two seconds was really confusing.

However, she was only dazed for two or three seconds before she came back to her senses.For some reason, under James' palpitating and panic-making power, she seemed to find the feeling all at once.

There was still a blue curtain behind her, and there were still those staff around her, but suddenly she felt that she was really in an ancient and dilapidated temple. half day sky.

That was the Boxers fighting with officers and soldiers in the city. The ruthless killing turned this originally peaceful city into a hell.What's even more frightening is that there are night creatures taking advantage of the darkness to harvest human life and suck human blood.

And standing in front of her was that ruthless and cruel demon.Even if she is a hunter favored by the heavens, facing such a cold-blooded monster, she will still panic and feel alone and helpless...

The heartbeat speeded up unknowingly, and even the breathing became rapid.Song Xiaoye became excited all over.She couldn't tell what it was like.

Because of James' transformation, the content on the A4 paper she had read suddenly jumped into her mind so vividly.It turned into a vivid picture after another, making her into the girl who chased and hunted demons within two seconds.

At this time, Song Xiaoye couldn't remember to look at the camera at all. She held the sword in her hand, her eyes were sharp, and she stared at James firmly, vigilant and careful. It was so fast, with an unspeakable fear...

She has been a hunter for several years, and such years of hunting has made her feel unbearably tired and powerless...

The long sword pierced out, approaching the devil's face, she raised her eyes, looked coldly at the devil who was teasing her with a playful smile, and said in a deep voice, "Killing you is my mission..."

Whether it is such exhausting killing, or just dying in the hands of the devil, it is her fate.

The sword light pierced through the darkness, attacking the jumping and dodging demon like a dragon, and the demon hunter who was proficient in martial arts quickly gained the upper hand.However, just as she was about to strike the demon with the sword in her hand, there was a loud "boom" in the distance.

That's the sound of guns...

It was just that the movement froze for a moment, and the demon who had fallen on the ground jumped up, grabbed her arm, and pierced her neck with sharp teeth...

Everything was as accurate and seamless as the previous rehearsal, without any mistakes.

Song Xiaoye's mind was in a trance, knowing that she was filming, but she had the illusion that she was no longer herself.

Her eyes flickered, and she murmured in a low voice: "Tell my mother, I can't go home..."

"OK..."

Someone was yelling loudly, the arm around her loosened slightly, and then someone was patting her on the shoulder.

Song Xiaoye's heart was shocked, and she finally came back to her senses.Looking at James' smiling face, he couldn't help but blinked.Just now she felt fierce and evil, but now she suddenly has such a gentle smile, she really doesn't feel used to it.

On the other side, the bearded director was looking at the monitor, "Yeah, not bad, James, the acting was good..." Suddenly he wrenched his fingers, and the bearded director suddenly asked: "Su, what did she just say? Yes' Tell my mom I love her'? Why doesn't it feel right to me?"

Upon hearing this, Song Xiaoye immediately turned around.

Oops!She said the wrong line just now!
Taking a deep breath, she didn't pay attention to Su's answer, and walked over to say hello on her own initiative. Although the director couldn't understand Chinese, she had to admit her mistake!

Obviously, he knew from Su that Song Xiaoye had spoken the wrong lines, and the director stared at her as if he wanted to punch her to death.

"How many times is this? How many times? After all, James took you through this paragraph, why do you still say the wrong lines?!"

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the clip repeatedly played on the monitor, and Song Xiaoye was in a trance for a moment.It turned out that she acted like that, she really didn't look like her...

"Ah, director." Licking her lips, Song Xiaoye immediately apologized first, "I'm sorry, I was wrong! But," after a moment of hesitation, she insisted on her own opinion: "This line is not a mistake, but my fault. feel……"

Glancing at the bearded director who didn't speak, she became more courageous: "Chinese people are different from Westerners. Chinese people's feelings are not so open. Many people will say 'I love you' to their parents or children. ’ line. So, I think I said, ‘I can’t go home.’ It’s more about the character dying…”

The corner of her eye glanced at Su who was gesticulating with her, Song Xiaoye blinked, but kept silent.

A small utility, or a small utility with only two or three shots, running here to argue with the director, is courting death!

Lowering her eyes, she raised her head and peeked out of the corner of her eyes at the silent director who was just rubbing his beard. Although she couldn't hear what he was muttering by himself, it sounded vaguely like he was muttering those two lines repeatedly: "I Love you, I can't go home - Sunny!"

With a sudden roar, the bearded director wiped his nose and shouted, "Where are the actors in the next scene? Haven't seen ghosts yet?"

After exhaling, Song Xiaoye relaxed. Seeing Su's gesticulations, she hurriedly followed and turned around, "Is this considered over?"

Su Bai glanced at her, and before she could say anything, he heard the director behind him call out, "That, little girl..."

When Song Xiaoye heard the sound and turned her head, the bearded man didn't speak, but just raised his thumb, then turned to look elsewhere.

Song Xiaoye was stunned for a while, then suddenly called out: "Did you see it? Did you see it? Su, is he praising me? I, I did a good job, right?"

Rolling his eyes, Su didn't bother to pay attention to her at all, "Maybe no one will take you to the airport, you can..." Seeing Song Xiaoye who was looking around, as if looking for someone, Su shook his head and patted On her shoulder, she turned her head in response, and left first.

When Song Xiaoye turned around, Su was nowhere to be found, not only Su, but even James, whom she wanted to thank, was nowhere to be found.

"Really, I want to thank you very much!"

Song Xiaoye is very self-aware, if James hadn't brought her along, she doesn't know how long it would take to shoot this scene.

It doesn't matter if she wastes her own time, she is really a sinner if she delays the progress of the crew.

"Zhan..." Finally saw the person he was looking for, but he only called out once, and Song Xiaoye subconsciously stopped talking.For some reason, it even flashed to the side.

In the crowd not far away, James was talking to someone, smiling slightly, with gentle eyes and burning enthusiasm, it looked like—Spike talking to Buffy!

Looking at the blonde beauty opposite James, Song Xiaoye's eyes lit up unconsciously.

Michelle! ?She is prettier and sexier than she looks on TV!
