Huayu: Start by asking ex-girlfriends for alms

Chapter 157

"Fuck, isn't this just taking off your pants to fart? It's unnecessary."

Zhen Jiecheng couldn't help but complain when he saw Jiang Wen savoring the moment after filming.
"Look, he's wearing a condom while worshipping Buddha—he's concentrating!"

"Won't we still have to play it out frame by frame during post-production?"

"That being said, we still have to save face!" Producer Ma Ke whispered, "Jiecheng, keep your voice down so no one can hear you."

Looking at Ma Ke who was fully thinking about Jiang Wen, Zhen Jiecheng stared for a long time and couldn't help laughing out loud.

When Jiang Wen firmly rejected the high-priced advertising patch from the winery that Ma Ke had worked so hard to get, this guy probably wanted to kill Jiang Wen. After all, that was an eight-digit sum!

In the previous life, the two of them had been in a cold war for more than a month. After Zhou Yun's mediation, Jiang Wen finally apologized politely. But he secretly did something bad: he forced him to the set to play the guest role of the "eight-year-old" son.

Typical petty-minded person!
Oh yes, there are also these two sex scenes with Liu Jialin.

Jiang Wen went to great lengths to clear the scene and create a carved wooden bed, wasting a lot of film footage, but when the film was released, only a few insignificant scenes were left.

I don’t know what Ma Ke will think at that time, and whether he can keep his original intention and continue to consider Jiang Wen firmly.

As he thought about it, the smile on Zhen Jiecheng's lips became more and more intense, making Ma Ke feel more and more uncomfortable.

Just as Ma Ke was about to ask, he suddenly saw Zhen Jiecheng's expression change instantly.

The smile is gone and the corners of the mouth are pursed.

His brows were furrowed and his muscles were trembling slightly.

屮!
I am also a producer!

Zhen Jiecheng gritted his teeth, turned his head and looked in the direction of the monitor, his eyes becoming increasingly unfriendly.

Damn Jiang Wen!
All the film used to erase the grooves was paid for by me.

Zhen's money!
Because Liu Jialin didn't have many scenes, the only scene left was of entering the city.

For this purpose, the crew went directly to Gangning Town, Taishan, to officially "take office in Goose City" and finish filming for Liu Jialin as soon as possible.

The Japanese taiko drums are already in place at the city gate, and a dozen authentic purebred Japanese old lady actors are also ready.

Fan Bingbing was wearing neon geisha makeup, and Zhen Jiecheng wasn't interested at all.

He frowned and looked at Jiang Wen:
"Does it have to be like this?"

"Yes!" Jiang Wen nodded. "Through these, the background is hinted, and it also explains that Huang Silang has a relationship with Neon."

Hearing this, Zhen Jiecheng changed the subject.
"My eldest niece is named Jiang Yilang. What's going on? Sister Yun will name her baby Taro Jiro in the future?"

"Hey, how do you know?" Jiang Wen was stunned.

"I guessed it. Is that difficult?" Zhen Jiecheng curled his lips. "In my opinion, don't just say "Ji Lang Ji Lang". Why not just say "Da Lang Er Di Di"? Not only is it catchy, but it is also related to the four great classics. It has a deep cultural heritage!"

Jiang Wen was stunned when he heard Zhen Jiecheng's sarcastic tone.
"Hey, you don't think I've got a crooked butt and sat over there with Guizi, do you?"

"I didn't say that. I didn't. Don't talk nonsense." Zhen Jiecheng waved his hand.

"Nonsense! In my movies, which of the spooks isn't a dwarf?"

"Also, I have said this in public: Why do foreigners unanimously believe that Nacui is a war criminal? Artists have made great contributions in this regard. So we Chinese filmmakers have to do the same!"

Jiang Wen's face turned red and his neck became thick.
"Finally, you are a talented person from Beijing Film Academy after all. Where is your cultural accomplishment?"

"Dai Lang is Guizi's name?"

"Lang is a commendatory word left by our ancestors, referring to young men and women!"

"We have been together for twelve years, but I didn't know Mulan was a girl. When used to describe a girl, it means heroic!"

"People say it's Zhou Lang's Red Cliff in the Three Kingdoms period. When used on a boy, it means he is talented!"

"The damn little cunning fellow learned the 'Lang' from us, including the 'Tai' and 'Ci', all of them."

"Besides, even if the misunderstanding is extended to Guizi, doesn't it just show that I am the father of the Japanese?"

Yan Jiecheng:
In a moment of urgency, he asked back:

"Why are you explaining so much? Did I ask?"

Jiang Wen: 0D0
"I didn't ask anything, why are you so anxious?"

Jiang Wen: (▼へ▼)
"You even specifically mentioned the nickname I left at Beijing Film Academy. Are you jealous because you're not called a talent at the Central Academy of Drama?"

"So you're taking advantage of this issue to try to save face?"

Jiang Wen: (｀⌒メ)
"If you want to be called a talented scholar at the National Academy of Chinese Drama, just say so. Don't be shy. A talented man in his forties is still a talented man." Zhen Jiecheng patted Jiang Wen on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. I will help you promote it and make sure you get what you want!"

After saying this, he strode away whistling.

Jiang Wen: (｀Д*)
After thinking about it, he took out his cell phone.

"Hello? Xu Qing, I have something to tell you!"

"I can't give you the guest role I asked you to play. I have to find someone else!"

"I'll talk to you about the specific reasons later. Remember, if Jie Cheng calls you in the future, you must tell him that it's because you're busy and don't have time. Do you understand?"

"Okay, thanks! I'll treat you to a meal after we finish filming the movie and thank you in person!"

Hang up the phone and continue to dial.
"Hey! Please help me contact Jie Cheng's ex-girlfriend who he dated at Beijing Film Academy. Ask her if she has time to play a cameo role in Let the Bullets Fly."

"Tell her that even though she doesn't have many scenes, she's acting opposite me and Ge Yu!"

"And Jie Cheng treats her as a son!"

"I still don't believe it. Jie Cheng must have asked her to call him dad many times. Doesn't she want to be Jie Cheng's mother for once?"

"Well, let's put it this way! Keep it secret and don't let Jiecheng find out about it."

Jiang Wen gritted his teeth, his face filled with an unbridled, even distorted and slightly hideous smile.

"Damn it Zhen Jiecheng, increase the amount of North American ...

"I'm going to let you know this time, what the fuck is, what the fuck is, surprise!"

"All units, prepare, action!"

Shooting begins!
Zhen Jiecheng was itching to try his hand at it, so he took advantage of his photography background to snatch Li Pingbin's job and tried the handheld game console himself.

Let’s first take a close-up of the words “Echeng”.

The drums come in first,

The two forces are quickly connected and progressed through subjective lenses.

Low and high camera positions cooperate to provide a panoramic view of the environment.

Zhen Jiecheng is busy but not chaotic.
The film continues to be connected in an orderly manner with subjective lenses, explaining the perspectives of several bandits.

Some were focusing on "how white the women in the city are", some were marveling at the pomp, but only Xiao Liuzi, played by Deng Chao, was the first to notice the wanted poster on the city wall.

The painting style is abstract, which is in contrast to the Qing court's vilification of Zhu Yuanzhang. Even if his face is covered with pockmarks, they cannot steal the limelight from his protruding chin.

While Jiang Wen was speaking his lines to Deng Chao, Zhen Jiecheng's camera only paused for a moment before turning to his drumming.

From mid shot to close shot, to close-up.

The drums cut quickly! It shows an extremely strong sense of formal beauty.

According to the pre-arrangement, the relationship between Zhang Mazi and Hua Jie was established through the camera.

This kind of camera language is used to imply that this woman is not simple and to pave the way for the subsequent plot.

"Mr. Huang has arrived!"

"Good luck to Mr. Huang!"

The classic egg-picking move is here.

For the audience, this scene was very funny. But for Zhen Jiecheng, a temporary photographer, it was too easy to shoot and he was not interested at all.

It was not until we entered the city and borrowed Mr. Huang's telescope to gain a subjective perspective that we felt a little motivated.

“Drawing on the simple and clear style of western movies!”

This was Zhen Jiecheng's proposal in advance, and was quickly approved by Jiang Wen with an extremely "conflicted" expression.

“Looking down from above! Using the language of the camera to show Huang Silang’s strength!”

"When I was shooting the train robbery before, I used the method of using fast horizontal movement across the foreground to create speed lines, thereby driving the rhythm. I also want to use this method here."

"Brother, what do you think?"

"Me?" Jiang Wenyu's forehead was wrinkled more and more. He was feeling aggrieved and nodded in a muffled voice, "Yeah, I think so too!"

"Then it's settled!"

In order to avoid making mistakes during filming and being criticized by Jiang Wen, Zhen Jiecheng even practiced in advance.

Jiang Wen is allowed to use the film to wipe his butt, but I am not allowed to light a cigarette?
Zhen's money!
So under Ma Ke's angry but silent gaze, Zhen Jiecheng took action capriciously.

As expected, today's handheld game consoles seem exceptionally smooth and silky!

"stop!"

Jiang Wen's voice suddenly rang in my ears.

Looking up, I saw Jiang Wen running hurriedly to the monitor.

Five minutes passed, no movement. Ten minutes passed, still silence.

twenty minutes,

"Does it take so long to watch such a simple scene?"

Zhen Jiecheng couldn't help it.
"If you want to find fault, just say it directly. Stop dilly-dallying!"

"What are you looking for? Haven't I always been so serious?" Jiang Wen finally raised his head. "Besides, how can this be easy?"

"Go pick someone from the class you're substituting for. If anyone can take a photo of him, I'll recognize him as my dad on the spot!"

"Uncle! Listen! This is your good son, and he wants to recognize someone else as his father!" Upon hearing this, Zhen Jiecheng looked directly at Jiang Wen's biological father, who played the role of the country squire!
"Jiang Wu, look at this, your brother not only recognized the thief as his father, but he also implicated you!"

Father Jiang:
Jiang Wu:.
As for Jiang Wen, the corners of his mouth twitched.

To change the subject, he picked up the loud speaker.

"Pass!"

thumbs up,
"Jiahui, you acted well!"

"Thank you all for your hard work!"

He walked past Zhen Jiecheng, but looked at Li Pingbin and Zhao Fei.

"Lao Li, Lao Zhao, the previous photos were all very good! I'm sorry to trouble you two to take care of the next one."

"Come on, everyone, take a break and we'll shoot the next scene later!"

Zhen Jiecheng: 0.0
Too lazy to argue with Jiang Wen, Zhen Jiecheng simply quit his job and continued to be a hands-off boss.

But before he could even sit down, his brows began to frown.

I have to say that Cheng Kun’s performance is indeed very professional.

He completely disregarded the image of an idol and worked hard to portray himself as a treacherous villain.

But, it's just professionalism!
Too much force!

Routine and formulaic.

This is especially true of Jiang Wu, who plays the role of a wise but simple-minded martial arts scholar who is good at judging the situation.

Cheng Kun's performance was clearly up a level!
It just so happens that the character of Hu Wan is still connected with the Wu Juren, and in the early and middle parts of the movie, they are in cahoots with each other.

So the original "barely good" directly becomes "average" or even "failing"!
"There's no need to relax the requirements just because there's no pay or because he's my schoolmate and he's doing it for my sake."

Zhen Jiecheng glanced at Jiang Wen.

"One is one, two is two, whatever you say, it doesn't matter who comes!"

As he spoke, he pointed at the monitor.
"Cheng Kun's performance is not good! What do you think?"

"Emm, I think so too!" Jiang Wen suddenly raised his head, "Jiecheng, can we discuss something?"

"What's going on? Tell me!"

"Next time, can you please not ask me a question after you finish talking for a long time: What do you think?"

"Or. No! It's better! It's better for me to say it first, okay?"

"Wait until I ask you, then you can tell me, okay?"

OK? Of course not!

No matter how awesome the director is, can he really enforce the order in which the characters speak?

nonexistent!

Zhen Jiecheng ignored Jiang Wen and waved to Cheng Kun, saying with a smile,
"It's good to destroy one's own image in order to expand one's acting career!"

"Not every famous actor has such courage. Most people are only willing to stay in their comfort zone."

He restrained his smile and looked serious.
"But the result is very realistic. I won't give you any sympathy points for your sacrifice, and I won't accompany you to move myself."

"Cheng Kun, do you want to hear something more tactful? Or more direct?"

Hearing this, Jiang Wen was dumbfounded.

Isn't that quite direct? Could it be that the above is not even euphemistic?

"Just be direct!" Cheng Kun took a deep breath, "Director Zhen, don't worry, my psychological endurance is not that bad."

"it is good!"

Zhen Jiecheng raised his head and saw from the corner of his eye that Liang Jiahui had already pulled the other actors and staff away, leaving enough space for Zhen Jiecheng, Jiang Wen, and Cheng Kun.

Cheng Kun also noticed it and gave Liang Jiahui a grateful look.

"Congratulations, Cheng Kun. I can now confirm that your acting skills are better than Liu Yifei's. You are now an enhanced version of Liu Yifei!"

It was a critical hit as soon as he opened his mouth.

Cheng Kun's face darkened, but he was also quite dissatisfied.

"As for the lines, Liu Yifei can recite them and speak them, but she's just awkward. You're better than her. You can already deliberately incorporate the emotions!"

"As for expressions, Liu Yifei can smile, but she doesn't dare to smile with her teeth bared. You are better than her. Your smile is much more exaggerated!"

"There are also aspects of body language and positioning." Zhen Jiecheng spread his hands and pointed at the monitor.

"Look, it's a standard routine and formula!"

“One of the most basic contents taught in the acting class at Beijing Film Academy.”

"Liu Yifei is still stumbling on this road, and you have come a long way, but in the end, we are still at the same level. So is there a problem with calling you the enhanced version of Liu Yifei?"

"I" Cheng Kun lowered his head, "No problem!"

"It is said that our Beijing Film Academy's 96 star class is benchmarked against the 96 class of the Central Academy of Drama. I think it makes sense!"

"They've named her as a celebrity, what's there to argue about? It's nothing more than a competition of fame! No matter how awesome Zhang Ziyi is, her popularity due to her TV dramas isn't much different!"

"Zhao Yanzi's Qiong Yao drama, your "A Noble Family" and "Like Fog, Like Rain, Like Wind", Yan Danchen's "The Lotus Lantern", Xiao Ming's... Sorry! I was wrong, Xiao Ming doesn't count!"

Zhen Jiecheng paused and raised his voice.
"Although Xiao Ming's previous image was more of an idol than yours, Xiao Ming, like you, also has the courage and execution to destroy his own image."

"The most important thing is that Xiao Ming can really show his strength and act vividly and lively, instead of just being superficial! What do you think?"

"I dare to say publicly now: Xiao Ming is the most talented actor in the 96 class of Beijing Film Academy, even though he has both good and bad reputations. What do you think?"

"Others can say he's a loser, and he can pretend to be a loser for social reasons, but he's not really a loser. He can show his real skills at critical moments! What do you think?"

"I" Cheng Kun raised his head, his expression clearly showing a stubborn "unwilling to admit defeat", but he was not "unconvinced", "Director Zhen, you are right!"

"I won't say anything harsh, just keep it in mind!"

Seeing this, Zhen Jiecheng nodded.
"Teacher Li Xuejian can play Song Jiang in a way that makes people hate him."

"Teacher Ding Yongdai's Bai Baoshan stopped the baby from crying."

"These two are far away, but isn't Brother Jiahui right in front of us?"

"Look at how he plays the two roles of Huang Silang and his double!"

"Exaggeration is not a derogatory term in performance. If you exaggerate too much, it will lose its tension and become like a rootless duckweed! Exaggerated floating, do you understand what I mean?"

"understand!"

Looking at Cheng Kun walking towards Liang Jiahui, Jiang Wen was amazed.

"Shit! It's you who can be so mean without even using a single curse word!"

"First it was Liu Yifei who was scolded by Cheng Kun, and then it was Cheng Kun's classmate Huang Xiaoming."

"By the way, I remember that they both had a crush on Zhao Yanzi at the same time, right?"

"This is even more murderous and heartbreaking. You are directly stabbing his lungs!"

"Is there?" Zhen Jiecheng curled his lips, "No."

Looking at Cheng Kun,

At this moment, Cheng Kun was already sitting with Liang Jiahui, asking for advice with a serious attitude.

Liang Jiahui did not hide anything and shared all his feelings and understanding, and provided hands-on guidance on the spot.

Cheng Kun performed it once, and Liang Jiahui commented on it again.

It was just like the acting class at Beijing Film Academy.

However, in the middle of the review, after Liang Jiahui stated his suggestions, Cheng Kun took out his mp3 and put on headphones while thinking.

Liang Jiahui asked in confusion:

"Cheng Kun, what are you doing?"

I subconsciously leaned in to listen, and a familiar voice jumped into my ears:

"What the hell are you talking about academics! The old lady selling popsicles at the door is better than you!"

"He~tui! Stop embarrassing yourself, it's disgusting!"

　Regarding Jiang Wen's stance, I just copied his original words without any bias.
