Chapter 409 Prenatal Depression

"A Lang's Story" was filmed backwards, that is, the first scene after the filming started, and the finale was filmed. This is very different from Wang Xiaohu's habit of insisting on filming the beginning of the film before the filming.

In fact, the reason why Wang Xiaohu was like this before was very simple. At that time, he was very unfamiliar in the director industry after his rebirth. In order to keep those classic movies with the characteristics and classic features in his memory, he would shoot according to the beginning of the story. Being able to let myself quickly find the feeling of being a director.

A few years later, Wang Xiaohu has directed many classic productions in his memory, and has accumulated quite a lot of directing experience. For him, as long as the script is written, he will arrange the shots according to the sub-scripts, and also according to the set. to flexibly control the progress of shooting.

No director would shoot the finale as soon as he came up, but Wang Xiaohu would do such an outrageous thing, mainly because he felt that the ending part was too sensational and too pessimistic.

I don’t deny that the tragic plot tends to make Wang Xiaohu more heartbroken, but the ending of this drama, apart from the accidental death of A Lang, makes people cry, and the sometimes humorous, sometimes innocent and touching father-son relationship in the film is really sad. sad.He wanted to finish filming this depressing scene as soon as possible, and go directly to the light-hearted comedy segment.

Following Wang Xiaohu's order, the staff of the film crew invited the media reporters and other people who participated in the opening ceremony out of the set. The main actors also began to change their costumes. The prop master nervously adjusted various props. With the help of Wang Xiaohu, track cars were arranged around the track according to Wang Xiaohu's request.

If he calculates it carefully, Wang Xiaohu hasn't directed a movie himself for almost a year. Picking up that loudspeaker makes him feel a little nostalgic.Not far away, Chow Yun-fat, who had already changed into his clothes, was talking with Wu Mengda, Stephen Chow, and Zhang Aijia. During this period, his hands kept gesticulating, and the expression on his face was also very serious. The three nodded frequently as they listened.

In the whole film, the most difficult thing to shoot is the ending. In addition to the tear-jerking plot, shooting racing cars was also considered a major difficulty in the Hong Kong film industry at that time.

So when seven or eight people including Chow Yun-fat, Wan Hanfei, and Jackie Chan parked their motorcycles on the starting line, Wang Xiaohu couldn't help reminding everyone to pay attention to safety.

"Remember, we are filming today, not risking our lives!" When Wang Xiaohu said this, he glanced at Jackie Chan. This sentence was mainly for Jackie Chan. He was very dissatisfied with Jackie Chan's desperate moves in the final sprint. . "After you start the car, you don't have to drive as fast as before, otherwise the camera won't be able to keep up with your speed, and NG will make everyone lose their patience."

Everyone nodded. In fact, there is a big difference between shooting a racing car and a real racing car. A real racing car will make people feel excited and excited, while shooting a racing car will make the driver feel extremely depressed, because what Wang Xiaohu said just now is very clear : You have to let the camera keep up with the speed of the motorcycle.

In other words, maybe you have to repeat several times for an action starting from the starting point to satisfy the director, and for a turning technique, you may have to stop as soon as you drive out of the camera, and then repeat it several times. On the one hand, more pictures can be shot for the director to go back to choose and edit, to find the most suitable film style for the film, and on the other hand, it can also avoid dangerous accidents.

From here you can see how noble Wang Xiaohu is in everyone's hearts. Everyone on the set will absolutely obey Wang Xiaohu's orders. He shouted "action!" , Once Wang Xiaohu shouted "CUT!" They had to stop and go back to the starting point. After a whole morning of tossing, they only completed a few scenes. The progress can be described as very fast!
Wang Xiaohu, on the other hand, seemed not to be in a hurry. He worked slowly and meticulously. Xiehe only made high-quality films. This is what Xiehe has implemented since its establishment.

At noon, Uncle Qin showed up on the set on time again in his box lunch car. Lao Qin saw Wang Xiaohu's extraordinarily kind, and still gave him a box lunch with a large piece of beef gravy, which tasted sweet and delicious.

"It's been two years since I've eaten Uncle Qin's boxed lunch. I really miss the days when I had lunch with everyone." Wang Xiaohu took the boxed lunch with Chow Yun-fat, Wu Mengda, Zhang Aijia, Zhou Xingchi, Jackie Chan and others sitting beside him, eating With emotion at the same time.

Among all the people present, the most stressed ones were not Chow Yun-fat and Zhang Aijia, nor the reformed Wu Mengda, but Zhou Xingchi who lowered his head and tried his best to eat food in his mouth.He wants to play the role of the precocious, sensible, innocent and mischievous son in the play just right, and it is impossible to understand the script thoroughly without putting in a lot of effort. In addition, he is still taking care of the part of "Seven Little Fortunes", fortunately, his part is also coming soon. The filming is over, otherwise Wang Xiaohu will not start the opening ceremony of "A Lang's Story".

"Xingzi, eat slowly, if it's not enough, I'll have some more here!" Wang Xiaohu picked up the large piece of beef in the box, raised his hand to pat Zhou Xingchi's head and said, "Isn't it hard work?"

"It's okay, with Fa Ge accompanying me to brew the relationship, I will be able to enter the play soon." Zhou Xingchi said with rice in his mouth.

In the afternoon, the scene of A Lang’s accident was going to be filmed. Before the filming started, Wang Xiaohu said to Chow Yun-fat: “I want to know that A Lang finally crashed and fell on the side of the guardrail. I saw Bo Bo and Bo Zai hurriedly dodging the racing car and approaching me on the track. What was he thinking at the time?"

Chow Yun-fat frowned and thought for a while, and then tried to say: "Worried about the safety of their mother and son, I feel happy in my heart because Bobo is back. Regret for the past, young and frivolous people always make some mistakes. Only time will tell." The mistake that proved to be wrong is also an irreparable mistake. The nostalgia for life, I have lived hard with Bozai for ten years, and finally hoped that Bobo will come back, but I still feel comforted, I won the victory, You can get a bonus, and Bobo is back, and you can take care of Bozai, which is also a kind of apology.”

Chow Yun-fat repeated it several times, but he couldn't express it clearly in words. In the end, he acted directly in a hurry. A complex look of worry, nostalgia, relief, and joy flowed out of Chow Yun-fat's eyes, accompanied by a slightly tired expression. , with the corners of his mouth upturned, interpreting Alang before he died in a penetrating manner.

"OK, that's it!" Wang Xiaohu clapped his hands and said, "Remember the emotions you are brewing at this moment, and get ready to go."

The god of acting is the god of acting, Wang Xiaohu can't help admiring him with just one look and one movement. This is the biggest difference between innate acting skills and acquired acting skills.

After a busy day, Wang Xiaohu took a taxi home with his tired body. As soon as he entered the house, he could smell the aroma from the kitchen. Wang Xiaohu knew that his mother-in-law had come to take care of his wife again.

Sure enough, Zhao's mother in an apron came out of the kitchen cautiously with a bowl of soup that she didn't know what it was made of. Seeing Wang Xiaohu, she said with a smile on her face, "Xiaohu is back?"

"Yeah." Wang Xiaohu handed the clothes to Aunt Xiang, and then went up to take the soup from Zhao's mother, "Mom, let me do these things, it's very wrong to bother you."

"Oh, why are you being polite to the whole family? You just came back from get off work, so sit on the sofa and rest first."

Now Wang Xiaohu is also worth hundreds of millions of people. He is busy with his career outside every day, and he will definitely be a little powerless in terms of family. Zhao's mother is also a sensible person. , she came here every day to cook, and every day she would cook baby soup for her daughter unshakably.

Hearing the voice, Zhao Yazhi came out lazily from the bedroom. After she was pregnant, she was very lethargic. She always felt that she didn't get enough sleep, and her appetite increased surprisingly. After drinking half a bowl, he finally pushed the soup in front of Wang Xiaohu and said, "I can't drink any more, you can deal with it."

"Hehe, how can that be? For the sake of the baby in your belly, you have to bear it no matter how bad it tastes." Wang Xiaohu shook his head with a smile, picked up the soup bowl, and fed Zhao Yazhi small spoonfuls. , Zhao Yazhi occasionally plays a little temper. According to Zhao's mother's experience, every pregnant woman will go through this process, and it will be fine after a while.

However, Wang Xiaohu knows that there is another term that can explain his wife's current situation: prenatal depression. Speaking of which, he has been worrying about entering the mainland for the past six months. responsible.

So every time Zhao Yazhi was a little irritable, or petty and coquettish, Wang Xiaohu would guide her very gently so that she could maintain a good mood.

"Azhi, let me accompany you to the hospital for an examination tomorrow." After feeding the baby soup, Wang Xiaohu suggested with a smile.

"Aren't you going to film tomorrow?" Zhao Yazhi asked while leaning lazily on the sofa, blinking her eyes.

"The film needs to be filmed, but it's not as important as the wife and son!"

"Hehe, how do you know it's my son!" Wang Xiaohu's words made Zhao Yazhi feel very good, and suddenly became energetic, she took Wang Xiaohu's hand and said, "Maybe it's a daughter!"

"According to my feeling, it should be a son!" Wang Xiaohu said with certainty.

"why?"

"Men left and women right!" Wang Xiaohu laughed and whispered a few words in Zhao Yazhi's ear. Zhao Yazhi's face turned red, and she raised her fist to beat his chest and said, "Mom is here. You are not ashamed."
