The anti-fraud bureau needs a promotional video, and you're going to make a "Desperate Gam

Chapter 100: A scene that brought tears to the eyes of all the extras (Bonus chapter, please vote!)

Because the first act of the first scene is Xu Zheng's play.

So all the other lead actors came to the monitor to see the acting level of the top-tier actors.

Song Hao placed great importance on the scene of the first act.

After all, this film can be considered his first commercial film after he became famous.

The crew members were the same people who had worked with him on three promotional videos.

They all hoped the film would have a good start.

"All ready! Begin!"

As the clapperboard was lifted.

The picture begins.

The entire scene was filmed with the "miracle oil".

The entire store was filled with an erotic atmosphere.

Xu Zheng, who plays Cheng Yong, first moved his cigarette to the ashtray, skillfully lit it, flicked off the ash, and then sat in front of the computer, propping his head up with his right hand, looking bored as he played a card game.

At that moment, his clothes were dirty and his hair was greasy; he looked exactly like a lazy, slovenly middle-aged man.

Just then, the old man who ran the Love Inn next door walked in.

Remind Xu Zheng to pay the rent as soon as possible.

But Xu Zheng acted like a rogue: "I can't pay up, I'm out of money, and the products aren't selling well."

After hearing this, the old man turned away with a hint of helplessness.

Xu Zheng asked, "Did you put the batch of oil I gave you last time at your small hotel?"

Upon hearing this, the old man turned around and scoffed, "It's useless. Nobody uses it. Everyone's using Viagra now. Nobody uses this thing. I've used your thing before, and it's useless."

After saying that, he turned and left.

"Crack!"

After this scene ended, everyone laughed.

Even Xu Zheng couldn't help but clap and cheer, "Great! Excellent! You acted so well!"

Song Hao stood up and said to the veteran actor who played the hotel owner, "Uncle, you acted well!"

"It's because I really know that oil is useless. Back then, we were always fooled by this stuff," the old actor chuckled.

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone was even happier.

Looking at this filming atmosphere...

Zhou Yiwei, Zhang Yu, Tan Nao, and others were also very surprised.

Everyone on the film crew seemed very relaxed.

This kind of work environment was something they had never experienced before.

Wang Chuanjun, who was standing nearby, explained: "These crew members are all from the same team that Director Song used when he filmed the first promotional video, which is 'All or Nothing.' They all know each other very well."

"The original cast?" Zhou Yiwei was surprised.

“Yes, Director Song is very sentimental. He knows that the team was very cooperative when filming the first movie, so he always calls them over whenever there is a filming opportunity.” Wang Chuanjun replied, “The crew members are also very cooperative. As long as they don’t have to leave, they will come to Director Song’s place.”

"I really envy the way they get along." Tan Nao was also pleased.

You know, she's been acting for so many years and she's never heard of a director who gets along so well with the crew and actors.

This further strengthened her resolve to make this film a success.

Because the performance in the first act was very good.

The veteran actor's portrayal of emotions and movements was so convincing that not a single part of his body seemed to dislike the magic oil.

So Song Hao announced that they would continue filming the next scene.

Because they are in the same scene.

So in the next scene, the old man from the Love Inn leads a tall, thin man with thinning hair, a somewhat dejected expression, and even wearing three layers of masks into the inn.

"What is it?" Xu Zheng asked impatiently, his mouth still covered in toothpaste foam.

"He wants you to bring him some medicine from India," the old man explained.

Upon hearing this, Xu Zheng scoffed, "Bringing medicine? Smuggling, huh?"

The old man rubbed salt into the wound: "Isn't your 'miracle oil' all smuggled? Then you two can talk amongst yourselves."

Xu Zheng's gaze followed Wang Chuanjun's direction.

The camera pans to Wang Chuanjun.

Wang Chuanjun plays Lü Shouyi, a leukemia patient.

At that moment, his eyes were filled with helplessness and confusion.

After looking at Xu Zheng, he first removed the first layer of mask, then the second, and the third.
"Crack!"

This scene was abruptly ended by Song Hao.

Wang Chuanjun was a little worried. He stood up and asked, "Director Song, what's wrong? Is the filming not good?"

Song Hao shook his head: "On the contrary, it was filmed very well, in one take."

Wang Chuanjun then smiled with relief.

At that moment, he noticed that the crew members around him were all looking at him with pity in their eyes.

Yes.

Wang Chuanjun, who plays Lü Shouyi, just now removed his mask, and his expression made him look like someone who had been ravaged by disease for a long time.

That feeling of being lost and unable to escape a predicament.

It's just a simple two-second shot.

That was enough to move everyone present.

Next, Wang Chuanjun, as a patient, vividly demonstrated his yearning for life.

"Boss, the genuine medicine in China costs 37,000 yuan a bottle, while the pirated version from India costs 2,000 yuan. The effects are exactly the same. If you bring back more of these..."

"A price difference of twenty times?"

As a businessman, Xu Zheng naturally knew the enormous profits that such price differences could generate, but he still kept saying, "Get out! Get out! Get out!"

Today's day is over.

They were almost always filming scenes in the aphrodisiac shop.

Since today is the first day of filming, the workload should not be too heavy.

Song Hao let everyone rest after filming only four scenes.

Just as everyone was gathered around eating, someone suddenly started discussing something.

"Holy crap, an overseas fraud ring has had one of its facilities raided!"

"really?"

"Let me see."

These crew members all participated in the filming of "All or Nothing".

Therefore, I am particularly interested in news about anti-fraud and scam tactics.

"Yes, the people in this park confessed that they have been scamming people out of money for the past two years through online gambling, cryptocurrency trading, online chatting, and so on. They've already scammed them."

"How much did you cheat?"

"They scammed 10 billion yuan." "Wow."

At this moment, Xu Zheng laughed and said, "Director Song, it seems that your film 'All or Nothing' is very educational, letting many people know the tricks of fraud."

"I guess this can be considered a contribution to society," Song Hao explained.

Xu Zheng looked at the young man in front of him and saw his former self reflected in his eyes.

Back then, I had a lot of ambitions; I wanted to make some memorable and meaningful films.

But later, market conditions made him gradually give up the idea.

Later, Xu Zheng focused on comedy.

Until now.

If Song Hao hadn't asked him to film this movie, he really would have continued like this indefinitely.

"Let's make this movie well, and make sure everyone feels that it has meaning!" Xu Zheng encouraged.

"Most definitely!"

"come on!"

The main actors also encouraged each other.

That evening, Song Hao returned to his room.

I noticed that netizens are all discussing it.

Strange to say.

This morning's discussion revolved around shutting down all overseas anti-fraud parks.

In the afternoon, a 28-year-old woman shared her "debt repayment diary".

She became addicted to scratching lottery tickets and racked up a debt of 25 yuan in just two months.

He even claimed to have watched "All for One" three times.

In the comments section, netizens all left messages emphasizing the importance of being down-to-earth and honest, and not having any侥幸 (侥幸 means taking chances or relying on luck) mentality.

Everyone seems to understand the principle that there's no such thing as a free lunch.

Song Hao was also very pleased to see this phenomenon.

At the very least, the movies I made have meaning.

Now, "All or Nothing" can serve as a warning against scams.

"The Flowers of War" has added a lot of historical and cultural elements to Nanjing, allowing more tourists to learn about the War of Resistance against Japan and serve as a constant reminder.

Needless to say, "Operation Mekong" emphasizes everyone's role in preventing and combating drug trafficking.

He is now very confident that his film "Dying to Survive" can bring some tangible benefits to ordinary people.

Early the next morning.

According to the filming schedule.

A large number of extras will be waiting at the entrance of a company.

Banners were hanging all around the tree.

The words written on it, crookedly, read: "Life is precious, but Gleevec is even more valuable!"

They wore protest clothes, masks, and held up protest signs, expressing their dissatisfaction in front of the representatives.

One of the pharmaceutical company representatives tried to calm everyone down, saying, "Everyone, please be quiet."

Finally, left with no other option, I grabbed a megaphone and shouted, "Everyone, please be quiet!"

The extras, all looking at the representatives on stage, shouted, "We're already dead, why would we be afraid to call the police?!"

"Why are you charging such high prices?"

"Why?"

The shouts of the extras were deafening.

But then Song Hao called "Cut!"

The other lead actors didn't quite understand.

This scene should have been performed well, so why did they call "cut" halfway through?

Xu Zheng, standing to the side, watched Song Hao, anticipating his performance.

Prior to this, he had learned from Zhang Hanyu that Song Hao was a very good actor.

Xu Zheng didn't believe it at first.

After all, a young director can only give some pointers at most; he can't really act.

But Zhang Hanyu confidently asserted that Xu Zheng would be captivated by his performance.

Now, he has finally gotten his chance.

He wanted to see how Song Hao taught the extras.

You have to understand that extras are a group of people with little acting experience, and they can't be persuaded with just a few words.

Song Hao picked up a megaphone, stood on the stage, looked at the extras below the stage, and said, "You all did a pretty good job with that part, but I think it could have been even better."

He explained, “You need to express your dissatisfaction with the exorbitant prices of medicine, your sense of injustice in life, and that feeling of anger and helplessness.”

Hearing this, Xu Zheng, who was standing to the side, smiled.

If you could make extras understand just by saying a few words, they could all be movie stars.

"Han Yu really made Song sound like a god."

He admitted that Song Hao is quite capable in writing scripts and directing movies.

But acting is a different matter.

Just when Xu Zheng thought Song Hao was being mythologized by Zhang Hanyu, Song Hao walked into the crowd and said to everyone, "Imagine your child in the movie suffering from leukemia and tormented by the disease, while you work hard from dawn till dusk every day."

"It's not for anything else, it's just to help your child get better. But at this time, the price of medicine skyrockets. Your child's only hope has gone up in price. You feel helpless, angry, and hate your own powerlessness, and you vent your emotions."

"Come on, everyone, shout along with me."

"Exorbitantly priced medicine! On what grounds?!"

"Why?!"

These calls to action drew the extras into the performance.

Several mothers, some of whom were new mothers themselves, exclaimed excitedly, "Why?! Why?!"

His expression and demeanor seemed to say: "Give me back my child's life! My child must live! Boycott exorbitantly priced medicines!"

In an instant, all the extras brought their acting skills to their best.

The thought that my child might get sick, and that I might get sick myself, is very disheartening. After all, everyone goes through birth, aging, illness, and death in this life.

They became emotional, and even cried and shouted.

When Xu Zheng saw this scene, he was surprised but couldn't help but admire it.

This guy actually used the method of emotional resonance.

From that moment on, Xu Zheng dared not underestimate Song Hao's acting skills and directing abilities.
