superstar director

Chapter 496 Adaptation
There is a thin layer of mist on a wide field in the early morning. It is quite far from the residential area. On the ground in the distance, there is an airplane parked there. The film crew of "Thunderbolt Angel" is busy doing pre-starting work inside the airplane. To prepare for the work, the assistant director directed the staff to set up the camera position. Ning Sheng, who was dressed casually, scanned the front with the viewfinder up and down, slowly forming a picture, and said to the assistant director: "Later, we will take a panoramic view first, and then zoom in closer." To middle ground, right here—”

This is the first set of shots of "Thunderbolt Angel". Ning Tong, one of the "Thunderbolt Angels", made up a middle-aged man to meet with the terrorists. After confirming that the terrorists had bombs on their bodies, they jumped out of the plane together with the terrorists. , and then threw the bomb in mid-air to save the people on the plane, and then Shi Shi and Ying Bao parachuted in the air to help Ning Tong and the others fall, and the other drove a speedboat to meet them. The whole story started from their simple and direct The action begins to enter.

Now everything is almost ready. Seeing that the lighting team still needs to be adjusted, Ning Cheng patted the assistant director on the shoulder, and then walked to Ning Tong in front. Her make-up has been completed.

In the original movie, this scene is a black actor replacing Drew Barrymore to connect with terrorists, and then it is shown through post-editing effects that Drew Barrymore played the black man through disguise.

However, Ning Cheng made a little change here. In his opinion, this unrealistic disguise is unnecessary at all, so Ning Tong's appearance this time is mainly through the makeup on his face and the hat on his head to make himself look like A black man.

Of course, if someone knows Ning Tong, he can tell that it is Ning Tong at a glance from the shape of his face, but people who are not familiar with Ning Tong will not be able to realize that this is a girl in her twenties, especially with her black skin. Absolutely no one can tell it's fake.As for the voice, it can be dubbed later, and in the movie, it will be Ning Tong's pronunciation skills similar to ventriloquist.In this way, it will make the audience feel more real!
After all, for the sense of substitution, the more real and the closer to reality, the easier it is!
At this time, except for Ning Tong not wearing a hat, other modeling and make-up has been done. Looking at her black and brown African face, and the clothes underneath are Hindu-like men's robes with dark patterns, Ning Cheng thought it was a bit funny .

"How are you doing over there? Is there anything interesting? I'll go find you as soon as I'm done shooting here!" Ning Tong was holding a mobile phone, and was video chatting with Shi Shi and Ying Bao over there. "Tongtong, you have become an African, wow, your face is so dark, show your teeth and see if it will become whiter——"

Because the opening plot needs to go to sea, Shi Shi and Ying Bao have already gone to the beach to wait. After filming here, go directly to the filming of this small opening plot in one day.Fortunately, they filmed the airplane scene not far from the beach, otherwise one day would be too late.

As for the plane here, it was actually a fan who refitted an old plane and put it on display here. After Ning Cheng and the others rented it directly, they spent a little money to renovate it. The inside feels like a new one.

This is much cheaper than Ning Sheng's plan to directly take an interior space of an airplane at the beginning, or renting a new airplane.

"Are those two girls still playing?" Ning Cheng couldn't help smiling when he saw that his sister didn't look nervous at all, then he went directly to the screen of the phone and played with the two girls in the video who were playing at the beach Said: "We are going to start the machine soon, are you all ready for today's scene?"

Ning Tong didn't worry when she saw her elder brother coming, instead she directly said for the two little sisters over there, "Today's scene is not difficult, so what preparations are there, but Ying Bao learned speedboat very quickly, wait After filming, I also want to learn."

Shishi and Yingbao over there also appeared in front of the screen and said with a smile, "As long as we don't need to jump out of the plane, everything else will be fine. I've already prepared it!"

Ning Cheng looked at them and said, "Don't worry, Shishi doesn't dare to skydive, I've expected it a long time ago, the double will do it for you, even Yingbao, if you can't drive your speedboat well, you can use the double as long as it stops. You can just stand up."

Ying Bao immediately shook his head and said, "My speedboat is driving very well, no need for a substitute!"

Shishi next to him also nodded and said, "It's fun to drive a speedboat. It's much better than skydiving. It's safe and fun!"

Ning Tong nodded repeatedly and said, "When we finish filming, let's go out on a speedboat together! By the way, brother, why don't you also buy a speedboat or a yacht, so that we can go to sea in summer."

Ning Cheng glanced at her and said, "You want to drive out to play!" Ning Tong's thoughts were seen through, but he was not embarrassed at all, and continued to say coquettishly, "It was originally, think about it, but now there are places where you can play on land. There are huge crowds of people out there, and once you’ve been there, you never want to go again. If you have a yacht, we can go out to sea together without being disturbed. You can swim when you want, fish when you want to fish, and bask in the sun quietly. How nice it is !"

Ning Cheng said lightly, "If you want a yacht, yes, as long as the box office of this movie exceeds 30 billion, I will grant your wish!"

For Ning Sheng, it's easy to spend several million or tens of millions to buy a yacht, but this kind of luxury can't be bought casually, it's a waste of money, it's really useless.And it is not a good guide for children's education.

So, from childhood to adulthood, he bought things for Ning Tong, except for birthdays and festivals, as long as Ning Tong had something that Ning Tong wanted in particular, and the cost was relatively high, such as sports cars, Ning Cheng would always give her a hard work. Direction, such as how many points to achieve in the final exam, or how many times I help my parents with housework at home, or how much I can improve my dancing and singing skills.

In short, it's not that you immediately give it unconditionally as soon as the other party asks for it, but let her understand that you need to work hard to get what you want.Of course, for Ning Sheng to do this, the most important thing is to let Ning Tong have a more precious understanding of what he wants every time, instead of playing it for a few days and throwing it aside as a waste product.

Although, Ning Cheng didn't know whether his thoughts would obviously help Ning Tong's growth, but at least it wouldn't let her develop in a bad way!

And the box office of 30 billion is really not high compared to Ning Sheng's previous achievements. Except for "People on the Journey" at the beginning, it can be said to be the lowest result.

But for this "Thunderbolt Angel", although he said in front of the reporter that even 50 billion is nothing, but he really didn't dare to have such a big idea in his heart. If the box office of this movie can exceed 30 billion, it is already a big deal for him. Great success.

However, when Ning Tong heard her brother's words, she was shocked. She knew that the outside media and many people were not optimistic about her brother's drama.

Many people even said on the Internet that Ning Cheng started such a show deliberately to praise his sister, but in the end, everyone agreed that Ning Cheng will usher in the biggest setback and fiasco since his debut!
Ning Tong looked at his elder brother, and wanted to comfort him, but didn't know what to say, so he could only smile and say, "30 billion, don't worry, it's a piece of cake!"

The two chatted and laughed a little more, and then heard the assistant director over there yell "Ready", Ning Cheng gave him an OK gesture, looked at Ning Tong and said, "Okay, let's start!" Shooting, concentrate, now you are a super agent, act well." Ning Tong gave him a big smile, raised her fist and shouted "Come on!"

Ning Cheng returned to his director's seat, then glanced at Ning Tong over there and nodded to indicate that it was time to start, so he picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, "Start!"

Following the lens of the camera, a picture of the cabin unfolded.

The joking passengers, the joking flight attendants, and then the camera slowly came to a bathroom, the door of the bathroom opened, and Ning Tong's black man came out after putting on makeup, but the camera didn't move up immediately to her face, but followed him all the way. Came to the first class and sat down, and only then saw his face through the zoomed-out lens.

Looking at Ning Cheng's familiar face on the monitor, Ning Cheng felt really weird, and prayed silently in his heart, "I hope Ning Tong's fans don't hate me after the movie is released! I did this to make Ning Tong popular!"

"CUT" Ning Cheng watched the camera go by, immediately called a stop, nodded and smiled, "Very good!" As soon as he heard the reconciliation, Ning Tong immediately had a relieved expression on his face, and so did the others.

Ning Cheng smiled, clapped his palms, and shouted: "Get ready for the next set of shots!"

In the second set of shots, Ning Tong, a fake black man with makeup, made sure that the other party's bomb was on him, so he immediately pulled the other party up to the security door, and then the two flew out together.

As Ning Cheng called out again, Ning Tong started a conversation with Gu Tianle, who played the role of a terrorist.

That's right, the actor who played the part-time terrorist is the popular Xiaosheng Gu Tianle Gu Zai. This is also a coincidence. Gu Zai happened to be doing an event nearby, and then he learned that Ning Sheng was filming here, so he came to have a look. Because of eating too much chilli and diarrhea, Gu Zai simply recommended himself.

In fact, Gu Zai saw that everyone was not optimistic about this drama, so he came here to see if there was anything he could do to help. For Ning Sheng, the director who single-handedly promoted him to meet friends, although Gu Zai could not contact him on weekdays. There are many, but I respect them in my heart.

Ning Cheng also understood in his heart, so he didn't refuse. For a friend like Gu Zai, there is no need for those false politeness, just like people rarely contact you on weekdays, but when you have something to do, a phone call, they can help you will definitely help.It's not those wine and meat friends who are constantly on the phone on weekdays and can't get in touch immediately when something happens.

In fact, Gu Zai is not the only one who comes to play tricks in this drama. During this time, I called him and said that he would come to play tricks. Many old friends who celebrated his comeback said that there are many girls like Wan Qiwen, Yuan Jieying, and Li Ruotong. There are Liang Jiahui, brother and other male gods.

Of course, Ning Cheng refused most of them, it was unnecessary, but there was one person who couldn't refuse, and that was Ding Xuan. Brother Xuan had already booked a small supporting role in the movie. With the relationship between the two of them, Ning Cheng didn't need to talk nonsense.

Although there is no formal martial arts action in this short shot, a girl named Ning Tong threatened a man, and then the two of them jumped out of the cabin together. It is not so easy to shoot this shot well. After five or six repetitions , and finally got the picture Ning Cheng wanted.

After finishing the filming here, the crew immediately tuned in, and then immediately drove to the seaside by car to meet up with Shishi, Yingbao and the others who were waiting there to shoot the scenes at sea!
It was already past twelve noon when the crew arrived at the beach, so Ning Sheng asked everyone to eat first, and after dinner, work started on time at two o'clock in the afternoon.

Because there are restaurants and hotels everywhere, so the crew didn't order takeaway, just go to the hotel to eat.

After eating and having a good rest, everyone continued to go to sea to start shooting.Shishi, who fell from the sky, had a stand-in to complete this dangerous shooting. After landing, Shishi stood on the speedboat, took off the helmet with her back on her back, and then her neat short hair fluttered in the wind. Shishi's delicate face, red lips, big eyes The eyes are more attractive in the flying short hair!

This is a different feeling from the intellectual and generous lady charm that Shishi had before. It is a little sexy, a little glamorous, and a little literary and gentle. It can be said that through this lens, the image of Shishi can be given to everyone. A sense of surprise!At the same time, this is also the position Ning Sheng gave the three of them in the movie.

This is also a corresponding change made by Ning Tong based on the different personalities of the three heroines in the original version. It is not possible to completely copy it, because the social environment is different after all.

Shishi corresponds to the original version of Liu Yuling. Compared with Liu Yuling's most obvious action characteristics, Ning Sheng gave Shishi more characteristics, not only the beautiful movements and the ability to fight, but also the artistic sense of Shishi itself, as well as the kind of Both the ruthlessness and the sexuality that I inadvertently radiate will make this character even more plump!
At this time, Ying Bao was wearing a bikini, driving a speedboat, watching everyone giggling, looking like a cute and silly bun, and also did not copy the corresponding character of Cameron Diaz in the original version. On the basis of the original American silly girl, the character has been upgraded to a cute and cute attribute that can better reflect Ying Bao's charm. I believe that compared to the simple image of a stubborn American silly girl, the cute and funny Ying Bao will definitely be more popular.

And Ning Tong, who finally landed on the speedboat, chose to inherit the cleverness and cunning of the original Drew Barrymore's smart and sexy features, and to show her youthful and healthy vitality!

It can be said that in order to make the characters of Ning Tong and the three of them so that people can see the difference at a glance, and to eliminate the things that are not suitable for the three heroines in the original version, Ning Sheng also tried his best, especially so that the audience will not be confused. Feeling disgusted and bored with the characters of the three, and unable to apply the open attitude of the United States to China like the original version, Ning Sheng really put in a lot of effort when adapting it!

Of course, whether the audience is satisfied in the end and whether they buy it, we will have to wait until the movie is released to know!
