The superstar starts from the creation camp

Chapter 118 Power On!
"Pay attention to your belongings, follow me closely, and don't get lost." Li Mu led the way just like a tour guide, barely raising a small flag.

A crowded place like a train station is also the place where accidents are most likely to happen. Liang Hongfei is behind, and Xia Yu walks on the outermost side of the team, escorting them.

"Come on, put all the big luggage below, take your valuables with you, don't lose them." Li Mu greeted everyone to get on a bus parked outside the train station.

The car is booked in advance, 1000 yuan a day, in fact, it is to pick up everyone and send it to the hotel. Originally divided into two minibuses to save some money, but considering that the bus is more convenient, I don’t care about the two 300 yuan .

Because there were a lot of people staying, and considering that there might be new actors who would join the group later, Xia Yu directly contacted a hotel, and booked a total of 45 rooms, which almost covered this one.

The hotel is not good, but it is not bad. The decoration should not have been a few years ago, and the facilities are not bad, but the location is a bit out of the way, but the price is cheap. A standard room is only [-] yuan a month.

"Come on, let's share a room for the two of you, and then decide after you have chosen, otherwise, if someone else snores at night, why not ask me to change rooms!" Li Mu teased.

"Come on, does anyone snore at night? Let's go together, men's doubles!"

"Haha~~~"

Xia Yu hurried up and down to follow the allocation of rooms. Li Mu, Guo Tao, Liu Hua, Liang Hongfei, and Xia Yu all had single rooms.

This is also a commonly known unspoken rule. The main creators of the crew should be treated differently from ordinary actors. Otherwise, they will not be able to restrain people on the set. After all, they eat and sleep together every day. When the time comes, you turn your face and scold him.
A little gap also allows the actors to understand their status in the crew. Don't give birth to some thoughts that shouldn't be there, but it will help the harmony of the crew!

The unspoken rules formed by a circle are not necessarily all bad things, existence is reasonable, the key depends on how to use it.

Of course, as the main creators, they are definitely not as free as ordinary actors. They can all stay in the room to catch up on sleep, while Li Mu and Liang Hongfei will go to inspect the shooting scene.

The scene of "Crazy Stone" is not complicated, and it was mainly shot around the Luohan Temple and the Yangtze River cableway on Xinhua Road.

Originally, Liang Hongfei checked the script when he was revising the script, and now he went through it again, and it was almost finalized.

Because Luohan Temple is a key cultural relics protection unit, the procedures for applying for filming are a bit troublesome. It took more than a month to apply with the local cultural relics protection department before it was approved.

This is actually not the first time for Li Mu to come here. After Crazy Stone became popular, the Arhat Temple in the mountain city became a relatively famous scenic spot in the local area. For a while, a travel agency even specially planned a "Crazy Stone" shooting tour route. In fact, it is very deceitful, that is, taking pictures, there is nothing to look at.

Naturally, the Arhat Temple in this time and space is not that famous, only the locals know about it, and there are not many people who come to offer incense. It looks a little depressed, that is, it will be more lively when the celebration is held on the [-]th of every month.

"This place is not bad, it has a historical charm, and it is also in line with the expressiveness of the conflict between new and old ideas in the plot." Xia Yu said with emotion.

Li Mu nodded. Some people may think that "Crazy Stone" is a pure comedy, but it is not. After entering the new century, society has undergone earth-shaking changes. There are two kinds of thinking: whether to keep the old or innovate The collision has never stopped.

Among them, Feng Dong’s real estate company is a typical "innovative school", while Bao Shihong's handicraft factory is a typical "old school". Workers cannot be paid wages, and even medical expenses cannot be reported.

The "innovative faction" represented by Feng Dong made a lot of money by purchasing land, but he did everything he could to make money, and eventually even lost it himself.

Li Mu asked: "When will the shooting equipment arrive?"

The shooting equipment this time was purchased by Li Mu outside the budget, and the total cost was higher than the overall budget of "Crazy Stone".

After all, the most important business of the studio in the future is to shoot film and television dramas, and buying is definitely more cost-effective than renting.

"It will arrive the day after tomorrow, because the shooting equipment is relatively expensive, and the manufacturer needs to strengthen the outer packaging for delivery, so the time will be slower." Xia Yu said here with a little joy.

He had talked with Li Mu about this issue before, and thought that Li Mu would be inclined to lease, but he didn't expect Li Mu to order a new set directly with a wave of his hand.

This also shows Li Mu's attitude from another direction. If it's just a big fight, why buy a brand new one?

Xia Yu is full of ambition now, vowing to make a career in "Muzi Studio".

Liang Hongfei seemed to be calm on the surface, but he was actually pretending. He couldn't sit still when he was in Shanghai, and he couldn't wait to start filming immediately.

Afterwards, Li Mu took the cableway with them again, but it was very cold after getting down. Although the temperature in the mountain city in December was around 10 degrees Celsius, it couldn't stand the strong wind in the river.

"Pay attention to this point. When filming, you should prepare warm clothes, otherwise the actors will freeze when they get off the cable car, and the temperature will get lower and lower in the future." Li Mu shrank his neck.

Xia Yu nodded and picked up his notebook to write down. In fact, this kind of thing is usually left to the life producer, but the studio did not set up a life production post at the beginning of the studio, so Xia Yu could only take care of it.

The next day, Li Mu and the others were not idle either, they had to do a lot of chores like reporting the shooting time with the relevant departments.

On the third day after arriving in the mountain city, the photographic equipment finally arrived. For this reason, Xia Yu rented two private houses next to the hotel as warehouses. One was used to store photographic equipment, and the other was used to store props and clothing.

Of course, the actors are not idle these days, they are all busy taking makeup photos, Li Mu probably looked through it, and they are generally quite satisfied. The most interesting thing is Liu Ying, this girl has the baby fat of a young girl , but Bao Shihong seems to be at least 30 years old, his girlfriend can't be so tender, right?So when Liu Ying puts on makeup, she inevitably looks a little "old".

In short, it's quite interesting. If this girl becomes famous in the future, this drama will definitely become her dark history.

It took about five days of back and forth to prepare, and after everything was ready, the crew held a simple start-up ceremony.

The relevant departments of the mountain city also sent people over, but none of them were important leaders. It can be seen that they don't value this drama very much. In fact, it is natural. Liang Hongfei is still a stunned young man as a director, "old boy" It can only be regarded as a micro movie, and it may still be well-known on the Internet. For these relevant departments, it is a little transparent.

Moreover, the cast of this drama is also worrying. Considering that it is not the best time for exposure, Li Mu has not announced the news that he will play an international thief. The media only thinks that he joined the team as an investor.

In all aspects, in short, this is a crew that seems to be joking, and no one thinks that this drama can be popular.

Liang Hongfei burned his head incense, followed by Li Mu.Respectfully, he burned incense to Guan Erye.

In fact, sometimes it’s quite interesting to think about it. Now all walks of life seem to be able to worship Guan Erye, and I don’t know if Guan Erye is busy or not!

"Crazy Stone Crew, officially start!!!" Li Mu held the "Salute" in his hand, and a group of colorful ribbons exploded from it with a "bang".

"It's finally turned on!" Liang Hongfei clenched his fists. He had been waiting for this day for too long!
As Guo Tao applauded, his eyes gradually turned red. This was his first movie in which he played the leading role.

Liu Hua on the side patted him on the shoulder, and felt a little emotional for a while. In the profession of an actor, innate qualifications are too important. Your appearance basically determines your future career path. He and Guo Tao have been supporting roles for more than ten years. It seems to be almost numb, but in fact, who is willing to be a green leaf for a lifetime?
Who doesn't want to stand in the center of the stage to enjoy flowers and applause?To put it more practically, when the protagonist earns millions or even tens of millions for a film, and no matter how good Luye is, can he have such a price?
Of course, people know that this situation cannot be changed, and the earth does not revolve around anyone, so they cherish this opportunity to be a red flower even more!

The shooting plan for the first day was relatively simple. We shot the first scene of the movie, which was the scene where Bao Shihong went to see a doctor.

Li Mu was also sitting next to Liang Hongfei staring at the monitor. To be honest, Li Mu was quite nervous about playing the role of Mike this time. At this time, he also hurriedly watched the performance of the old man, hoping to learn something from it.

This shot shows a close-up shot of the faucet not being tightened tightly and dripping a little bit. Then Bao Shihong looked at the faucet blankly. The doctor noticed that he was not concentrating and turned off the faucet.

The plot is very simple, which is why Liang Hongfei chose this scene as the first shot.

The doctor is an actor recruited locally, and sat down with Guo Tao face to face.

Water dripped from the faucet, and then the camera switched, and Li Mu froze immediately in front of the monitor.

"Pay attention to the close-up on the second seat!" Liang Hongfei shouted into the walkie-talkie.

In the camera, Guo Tao's facial expression showed a sluggish state, as if all his attention was attracted by the faucet, as if possessed by a demon, the muscles on his face twitched, and the corners of his mouth pulled.

He didn't say a word the whole time, but it gave people a feeling that he was very uncomfortable!

Li Mu couldn't help sighing in his heart, as expected of an old drama player, this subtle expression change made those little fresh meats unable to learn it.

In fact, this seemingly simple scene has a deep meaning, because Bao Shihong himself has a urinary disease, and the dripping water from the tap indicates his illness, and at the same time, it indicates the depression of a middle-aged man.

Disappointment at work and physical illness, these are not only Bao Shihong's character design, but also the basis for promoting the direction of the plot.

After that, his car hit the four-eyed "Don't Touch Me", but he couldn't even afford the maintenance fee of 8000 yuan. It was not enough to collect money from his girlfriend, and the image of a poor middle-aged man was very clear!
　Thank you for your support!
　　How should I put it, everyone knows the recent situation, and many things cannot be written.

　　Duck Dan is also trembling, for fear that one day he will be caught by the crab. A few days ago, Lao Shu just entered, trembling.

　　Let’s talk about the plot again. In fact, it’s very uncomfortable for the card to be put on the shelves with this excessive plot. Fortunately, the friends are very supportive, thank you again!
　　The singer's plot is over, and it is easy to get tired if you always write and sing. The follow-up "Crazy Stone" can be regarded as a turning point for the protagonist from behind-the-scenes to singer and then to actor.

　　It is also more important, the road to superstar has just begun, and I hope everyone can give Duck a little patience.

　　Regarding the update, it is still at [-]:[-] am and [-]:[-] pm, but note that the duck egg is now a chapter of [-] words (see who else said that the duck egg is short and weak?)

　　The recent plot is really slow, and when the follow-up duck egg is written smoothly, it will speed up, please rest assured.

　　I wish you a nice weekend!
