Chapter 294 New Boat Scene ([-]-in-[-])

The memories that Lu Heng had seen and then forgotten in his previous life became very clear after his rebirth. Especially when he thought of something, the related memories seemed to be recalled automatically.

Just like when Lu Heng thought of that actress, he remembered an interview about her - even her rich husband bluntly said that she was uneducated and uninformed when she was on the show.

And... these words were said in front of her during an interview with Li Xiang.

Li Xiang even watched the excitement and fired at the actress without taking it too seriously: Aren't you angry when your husband says that?The actress could only smile awkwardly.

This detail reflected her status in the family, and also allowed Lu Heng to roughly understand the reason for her contrast - the dignity she had lost by swallowing her humiliation at home had to come back even more arrogant outside.

It was one thing to analyze the reason for her such contrast, but Lu Heng couldn't accept it, just like that sentence: You will end up living a life you hate.

For Lu Heng, except for those who are not nice people or those who deliberately stir up trouble, he will not look down on anyone. It is not that Lu Heng is highly educated, but that he feels that looking down on others is a way to feel superior. This approach is too low and childish.

Doesn’t the happiness of life lie in climbing and surpassing one goal after another?

If you look down all day long, can your field of vision not be narrow?Not to mention looking up, if you keep your eyes level, you can see further.

Whether it's Gong Li or Lu Heng, with their current acting skills, they can't be too bad in anything. Coupled with their status, the director won't or even dare not ask for too much, but they still experience life honestly.

Not only the preparations before shooting, including watching the playback during shooting, the director and people around them felt that it was pretty good. Gong Li or Lu Heng also felt even better.

A point of view that many people take for granted is that if she makes such a high income for a film, I would work hard.

But in fact, most people will drift away to some extent after they become famous. Aren't those young artists who will overturn in the future an example?The rest...it's not that they didn't do that, they just weren't exposed.

So, if it were to happen to you, you would still have to float.

For Gong Li, it's not that she works harder after becoming famous, but that she gains everything after working hard.

The summer in Yunnan Province is not too hot, especially in places where the sun does not shine, but it is in a quiet state. If you keep practicing these, you will inevitably sweat.

Despite this, when I took the final shot of Gong Li carrying the porcelain bowl on wooden sticks, I was not satisfied with the several shots she took - either the porcelain bowl would break due to the shaking, or she was being cautious like a novice.

When Sun Zhou was thinking about what to say, Gong Li smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"Forget it, let's think of a different method, it doesn't look good."

Everyone brainstormed and finally came up with the method of drilling holes in the bottom of the bowl, driving long nails under the board, and fixing the bowl to the nails.

Once you do this, let alone walking, even if you hold it and wave it, the bowl will not fall.

As a result, the scene was filmed quickly and smoothly. Gong Li's manager Tai Zuhui said casually: "I practiced for two days before, but all my practice was in vain."

Gong Li shook her head: "Although the previous practice has not been used, it is not completely useless. At least when performing, my body movements will follow the previous feelings and will not become a confident sensory misalignment."

"That's true." Tai Zuhui nodded.

Lu Heng gave a thumbs up: "What is professional? This is professional."

Gong Li reached out and patted Lu Heng: "You are the only one who is poor!"

……

To the south of Kuncheng is the Red River. There is a county called Jianshui below this city, which is more than 200 kilometers away from Kuncheng.

At this time, the roads were all in the stage of being repaired or newly built, so even though we set off very early, we didn't arrive until almost noon, so we stopped briefly in Jianshui and had lunch.

Of course, the food here ranks first in rice noodles, but it’s a bit sparse for lunch. They also ordered steam pot chicken.

Lu Heng discovered that this place was a different experience from Kuncheng. It was still the beginning of the century, and there were not as many tall buildings in Jianshui as there would be in the future. The streets were filled with houses with eaves, brackets, carved beams, and paintings. Even the restaurant where Lu Heng and the others ate. It is also an old building.

Not only the houses, but also most of the roads in the county are made of stone. Although it is a bit shaky when driving, you can feel a return to history as you walk along.

When ordering, the boss introduced local specialties to them. Lu Heng didn't pay attention at first, but later he heard that Jianshui's purple pottery was among the four famous pottery in China. Only then did Lu Heng understand. No wonder Sun Zhou chose this one. place.

Because before this, Lu Heng had always been surprised that the countryside was everywhere, why did he have to travel so far, let alone filming a scene opposite him and Gong Li - even if the scene is simple, with Lu Heng and his acting skills, they can do it without any physical performance It gives you a sense of realism in the performance, so the scenes are the icing on the cake for their play, but they are certainly not the main part.

"We in Jianshui have a history of making pottery two to three thousand years ago. Hey - don't laugh. There are unearthed cultural relics to prove this. If you don't believe it, just go to our scenic spot called Swallow Cave and you will know." The hotel owner said cheerfully that he was still full of pride when talking about local history.

"As for our purple pottery, it is thanks to Master Xiang that it ranks among the four famous pottery. I wonder if you have heard of his name. His name is Xiang Fengchun. He is a powerful person."

The boss clicked his tongue and said: "He was originally just a potter, but in the end he was able to do modeling, calligraphy, painting and polishing to become the 'Three Skills of the Xiang Family'. He became a famous person in the country, so he has to be called this!"

The boss said, giving a thumbs up.

Lu Heng and the others looked at each other and smiled. If it was a simple introduction, it would usually not be so much, but could say so much. Obviously, he was recommending them to visit somewhere.

There is always no shortage of tourists in ancient cities, and Jianshui is no exception. Especially in recent years, with the promotion, more and more people have come. If tourists are recommended to buy something, they can get commissions, and they can get a commission. Same as taxi drivers.

It's not a lie, it's a sales pitch at most, even if it's a later generation, if you don't listen or be interested, they won't do anything, unless you are a low-priced group, then it's another matter.

"Thank you for your kindness. We are here this time to go to the painted pottery factory."

Sun Zhou smiled, and when the boss showed surprise, Sun Zhou poured cold water on it:
"And we made contact before we came."

"Uh... That's it." The boss looked a little embarrassed, and then smiled and said: "It seems that you are experts, so I won't bother you."

After contacting him in advance, even if he brought someone with him, it would definitely not be his fault, so he didn't say anything more.

When he came out after eating, Sun Zhou said with a smile: "Although this boss is very good at business, this dish tastes really good."

"Indeed, if local tourism gets better and better in the future, his business will definitely get better and better. By then, he probably won't have time to do these introduction jobs." "There will definitely be others, but I guess he won't be the boss. But the waiter.”

"Haha, that makes sense."

After sitting in the car again, the group continued to move forward while chatting casually.

When I arrived at the painted pottery factory, the head of the propaganda department I had contacted before was already waiting there.

At the county level, when it comes to making movies, not only are they produced by the Beijing Film Studio, but they are also movies involving big names like Gong Li and Lu Heng. Not to mention the county's publicity, the city pays attention to them.

Thinking back to the time when he, Zhang Jizhong and Ma Yun went to the tourism bureau and got into trouble, Lu Heng sighed. This was probably because the right time, right place and right people were indispensable. In terms of background, they were carrying the banner of CCTV and were better than Beijing Film and Television. The factory is not inferior in any way, and Zhang Jizhong has also produced major dramas such as "Water Margin", and there is also Lu Heng, a popular singer. Although Lu Heng was not as big as he is now, his reputation is not low.

The difference from now is time. As tourism income becomes higher and higher, local governments pay more and more attention to it, including publicity.

The painted pottery factory was in the suburbs in the north of the county. Lu Heng and the others left after filming here for two days, and the scenes were mainly Gong Li's.

When Lu Heng left, he had already selected some high-quality products through the old masters in the factory, packaged them, and sent them to some friends, partners, and elders.

Of course, he also bought two sets of tea sets, one set was sent to the capital for his own use, and the other set was sent home.

Then, they arrived at a place called Yuejin Reservoir, 30 kilometers north of Jianshui County. A small village next to it was where Lu Heng and Gong Li played against each other.

There is an old house next to the reservoir.

Although the house is old, its style is not old, and it looks like a combination of Chinese and Western styles. When Lu Heng asked, he found out that it was built by the son of a landowner in the village who studied and worked outside and later returned to his hometown to recuperate.

It's indeed quite appropriate, and it fits a certain definition of Zhang Qiang's character - he wants to be romantic but is realistic, which is a kind of hybrid mixture.

When they were filming at the Painted Pottery Factory, the house was also renovated and some stylish decorations were installed. It looked very warm.

The big bed in the middle, simple and elegant, is the new battlefield.

However, Lu Heng's boat scene was with Zhou Xianxin, Gong Li's stand-in, but the initial hug and kiss was still shot with Gong Li.

"I'm taking advantage of you, kid." Gong Li looked at Lu Heng with a half-smile.

This is because she is familiar with Lu Heng, and Lu Heng in her previous life had seen the later interview. When she was filming this movie with Tony Leung Ka Fai and Sun Honglei, she was serious about filming this aspect with them, and they only discussed the performance outside the film. , not joking about these.

For professional actors, everything serves the role, and everything else is just a cloud.

Otherwise...according to the traditional Chinese concept, you would lie in a coffin with paper money burned in front of you and be worshiped by others, or you could have your photo turned into a posthumous photo and put it on the table, or even put your photo on the tombstone - these curses This behavior is psychologically unacceptable to most people.

But many movies and TV shows have this scene, and generally this kind of role is dominated by older actors, but unfortunately, the older you get, the more conservative you are, and this kind of thing is even more taboo.

To be able to achieve this step, in Lu Heng's opinion, according to the taboos of Chinese people, is actually far greater sacrifice than the boat scene, but during the filming process, there was not much extra reward in this aspect.

Like when Lu Heng went to Beidiao, he couldn't accept it at first.

It's okay for him to act as a corpse, even being stepped on a few times, but it's too shocking to put his photo on the altar table and tombstone.

It wasn't until he had been in the industry for a long time, seen too much, and was influenced by it that he slowly stopped caring.

But at that time, Lao Lu was long gone. But now, if Lu Heng dares to act in such a scene, as long as Lao Lu sees it, he will definitely beat the shit out of Lu Heng. Even if he is not at home, he can still call him The scolding is so bloody - even though Lao Lu himself is an actor.

Of course, Lao Lu has always been a stage performer and has never filmed a film or television drama, and most of them are "serious dramas" that were once biased towards promotion. Just like many people in the entertainment industry, they don't want their children to come in - although these are two different things. But there is a similar rationale.

As for the boat scene, generally male actors will not suffer much, and the main ones are actresses. Except for those who are determined to become famous, other actors still need courage to break through this inner defense. It is not just a simple sentence of dedicating yourself to art that can make you feel at ease. .

Zhou Xianxin was different from Tang Wei. She didn't want to come at first, but Chang Li persuaded her to come.She is the class teacher of Zhang Ziyi and Hu Jing, and she also serves as the tutor of the graduate class.

After all, Zhou Xianxin is also a school girl of Gong Li, but she became a monk halfway. When she was studying at West China University of Medical Sciences, she participated in the beauty contest held by Neon Fuji TV in Guangdong City and won the championship. Then she turned to acting. After developing in the industry, they were also admitted to the 00-level postgraduate program of the Department of Chinese Opera Performance. Tang Wei was also from their class, but Tang Wei was in the directing department.

It happened that this movie was about to be replaced by Guo. Many people said that Zhou Xianxin looked like Gong Li, so Chang Li naturally recommended her:
"It will be good for you to experience the atmosphere of a movie crew. Besides, with Gong Li here, you won't suffer any loss."

Before this scene, Gong Li was planning to explain the scene to Lu Heng and Zhou Xianxin to resolve their psychological discomfort, but later she discovered that Lu Heng... seemed to know better than herself.

Thinking about it again, why the hell did this kid film "A Dream in the Garden" with Wang Zuxian before? The scale... he's so stupid, let's just have fun!

So, she taught Zhou Xianxin alone.

Although Zhou Xianxin was explained and rehearsed in advance, it took seven or eight takes to complete this section.

……

In the end, not to mention Zhou Xianxin, even Lu Heng himself was sweating, and Gong Li made fun of him again: That's it?

Now it was Lu Heng's turn to roll his eyes at her.

However, besides being hot, Lu Heng's other feeling is that... he is indeed quite realistic. Not only does he have a similar face, but he also has a similar figure, so sexy.

While eating after the meal, Lu Heng heard what Zhou Xianxin was talking to the producer and looked a little anxious. When Lu Heng was about to go take a look, Gong Li had already passed by.

Later, Lu Heng learned from Gong Li that school was about to start, and Zhou Xianxin hoped that the remaining scenes could be filmed before school started.

The producer was a little hesitant at first, but after Gong Li passed, it was no longer a problem.

Zhou Xianxin was naturally very grateful to Gong Li, and Gong Li waved her hand: "Senior, I'm here. If you have anything, just tell me."

　thanks for your support.
