After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?
Chapter 73: Tribute to "The Man from Nowhere"
Chapter 73: Tribute to "The Man from Nowhere" (Fourth update, please read later)
Hey...when will I be able to make something out of this?
Boss, will you fulfill your promise of a salary of 200,000 yuan a year?
Alas, I didn’t get to act in The Loser 2, what a huge loss, do I still have a chance in 3?
Zhong Xiaoyu was feeling sorry for herself on the side. She turned around and saw her boss flirting with Liu Yifei, and rolled her eyes silently.
The filming in the next few days went on in an orderly manner. After the crew behind the scenes gradually adapted to the filming work, Zhang Xiaofei and Tan Songyun returned to the crew.
Li Mingyang immediately started shooting at full speed and began to catch up with the progress.
Normally, filming is not done in the order of the script, but rather according to the scenes.
All scripts are numbered by scenes, and then a plan is made to decide which scenes to shoot each day.
The scenes of the same scene will be filmed together.
But the bouquet of flowers doesn’t work. Li Mingyang’s experiential acting method requires a step-by-step approach and shooting according to the order of the script.
The advantage of doing this is that it is easy for the actors to shoot, but there are many disadvantages. It is difficult for the crew to change scenes, and they have to run back and forth, which wastes time and money.
Almost no producer would agree to this way of shooting.
But the producer, director and leading actor are all Li Mingyang himself, and he can shoot the film however he wants.
It’s a bit expensive, but the most important thing about a romance film is the state of the actors, and Li Mingyang understands this very clearly.
So he was generous for a rare moment and rented a big bus to save time on the journey.
After all, the crew has to run back and forth between the staff dormitory compound and various filming locations.
Dapeng is responsible for the scene arrangement in the studio in the dormitory compound.
Xiao Yang and Wu Zhikui were responsible for the planning of the location.
Li Mingyang was only responsible for filming and overall planning. As Liu Yifei's condition got better and better, Liu Xiaoli's bottom line became lower and lower.
The crew's progress was extremely fast. It took only five days to reach the most important turning point of the entire film.
The hero shaves his head and prepares to enter society.
Everyone thought this scene would be over soon.
Unexpectedly, this scene was shot very slowly. Li Mingyang was uncharacteristically strict with the lighting and props, and the layout was incredibly strict.
"Oh my microphone! When are you going to start shooting? I've slept for more than an hour." Liu Yifei said while stretching, wearing a military coat.
"It's almost time. If you feel bored, just sleep a little longer." Li Mingyang framed the picture with his hands, comparing the perspectives, with an unprecedented focused expression.
Seeing this, Liu Yifei didn't know what to say. She found a stool and sat down, holding her face with her hands, and watched with boredom as Li Mingyang tirelessly fiddled with props, adjusted the lights, and communicated with Wu Zhikui about shooting techniques.
More than ten minutes later, Li Mingyang finally started shooting.
When Li Mingyang took off his coat, revealing his strong upper body, and picked up the blade, Liu Yifei blinked. What was he doing?
Shave your head and take off your clothes!
With a sizzling sound, Li Mingyang cut off the curls at his temples, and strands of hair fell to the ground. Then he grabbed his hair with one hand and started to trim his hair with an electric trimmer with the other.
Along with the sound of the hair shaver, large chunks of hair fell off. When the long curly hair turned into short hair, Li Mingyang held the hair shaver with one hand and started shaving it close to the scalp.
The main camera zoomed in, moving upward from the chest and finally stopping at the face, while the sub-camera moved around Li Mingyang and finally stopped behind him, diagonally facing Li Mingyang in the mirror.
Long curly hair becomes a buzz cut.
Li Mingyang started from his forehead and slowly wiped it backwards, staring at himself in the mirror calmly. Then the camera turned and Li Mingyang put on a shirt and a black suit.
"Crack!"
Li Mingyang snapped his fingers, and this time-consuming and important event finally came to an end.
Liu Yifei trotted over, stared at Li Mingyang's new look for a while, and said with a smile: "You look good with a flat head. It's more handsome than long hair, and very manly." "You also understand masculinity?" Li Mingyang joked.
"Humph!"
Tianxian got angry, turned around proudly, and ran to find her mother.
This scene pays tribute to the uncle Won Bin in Lone Hero.
Li Mingyang liked Yuan Bin's performance very much. He often used this performance when filming short dramas. He was very familiar with it and shot it smoothly in one take.
The shooting was over and the crew started to clean up. Li Mingyang returned to his chair, drank some water and took a rest.
I didn't drink two sips of water.
Tan Songyun ran over and squatted in front of Li Mingyang, "Mingyang, the crew just called me and said they don't want me anymore. The role I fought so hard to get is gone again."
Li Mingyang asked guiltily: "Why is it gone again?"
"It's all because of you. Why did you have to mess with Director Feng? It's so hard for Xiao Fei and I to get auditions now. As soon as they asked me if I knew you, I knew there was no role... This play was recommended by my friend. It was agreed upon, but they didn't want to use me after a few days."
At this time, Zhang Xiaofei also came over and squatted silently beside Tan Songyun. Although he didn't say anything, his meaning was very clear.
我们 该 怎么 办?
"Huayi has no martial ethics!" Li Mingyang sighed in a pretentious manner.
"Stop acting, you must have expected it." Tan Songyun said aggrievedly: "We don't want to play a marginal role, that road is not easy to walk, we want to play a normal one."
"Wait until I finish filming the movie."
The two girls rolled their eyes at the same time. They had heard this sentence dozens of times on the set.
Whenever someone came to Li Mingyang to complain, he would use this sentence to answer them perfunctorily. It had almost become his catchphrase.
Zhang Xiaofei sighed and walked away silently.
When Tan Songyun saw Xiao Fei leave, he put his hands on Li Mingyang's legs, leaned forward, leaned on Li Mingyang's knees, and said while shaking, "I don't want to hear empty words, please comfort me, please comfort me."
This is not asking for comfort! It's clearly asking for sex!
……
On New Year’s Eve, January 1, the crew had a day off and set up three tables in the yard to celebrate the Spring Festival together.
People working in the film and television industry rarely get to spend the New Year at home, and it is common for them to spend the New Year on the set.
The only two people who didn't come were Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli from the crew, as they had a dinner party at the China World Trade Center.
Dayun was not there either, but his father was also in Hengdian. Li Mingyang asked him to go for the reunion dinner and ask about his father and stepmother's attitude towards Huayi.
Zhang Ruoyun's father is back with Liu Pei. They spent the Spring Festival together this year. Judging from the time, they will soon remarry.
His father has his own circle and has a good relationship with Lao Zhang.
His stepmother Liu Pei is even more powerful. Her network of contacts is even better than his father's. She is very familiar with Feng Kuazi and Xu Fan.
Zhang Ruoyun was very unhappy with this arrangement, but she went anyway.
It was around eight o'clock in the evening when Zhang Ruoyun came back. He looked very bad, as if he had eaten a fly.
"Dayun, did you ask anything useful?" Li Mingyang said as he handed Zhang Ruoyun a bottle of beer.
Zhang Ruoyun took the beer and gestured to talk inside.
The two came into the house. Zhang Ruoyun took a sip of beer and said, "My dad said that If You Are the One was a huge success and Huayi no longer has any worries. They will definitely mess with you. Don't be optimistic. My dad's woman said that you'd better ask Wang Jinghua for help. She and Huayi don't get along."
