Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 286: Breaking into a Higher Level

Chen Linfeng directly asked the crew to prepare and start filming again.

There will be no problem this time.

Based on the experience of filming "My Love from the Star" last time, Liu Xixi knows that as long as she finds the right path, everything will go smoothly afterwards.

This time is the same, he is starting to get better at portraying a character who has a slightly bad temper but is actually a bit of a three-dimensional tsundere.

In addition to the several cameras that are mainly responsible for filming, there is also a staff member on the sidelines who is responsible for shooting behind-the-scenes footage.

For this episode of "Reply 1990", Chen Linfeng plans to post the behind-the-scenes footage of the filming process online as a promotional easter egg and a surprise for fans.

He himself rarely operates, and many fans have expressed dissatisfaction with this.

Doing so can also alleviate the extra emotions of fans to a certain extent.

The daytime shooting was not difficult and the progress was good.

There was a night scene in the evening, so everyone hurriedly finished dinner and started working, hoping to shoot early and finish early.

This scene is about the Chen family having dinner.

The protagonists are Guo Da and Song Dandan.

As soon as Guo Dafu entered the scene, he made a stunning debut.

The funny dance that showed his personality was also performed by Chen Linfeng during the reading.

After careful adaptation, and then performed by Guo Da, it is so funny no matter how you watch it.

But the Chen family has long been accustomed to Chen’s father’s personality and does not give him any face at all.

Guo Da is not embarrassed at all and can continue to be funny in a different way. He is a pure optimist.

Unfortunately, his wife at home likes to have a fierce face. When Shi Xiaolong was trying to be cool during his adolescence, the eldest brother was immersed in things that interested him.

No one was cooperating.

The scene has a sense of dry humor, with stupidity and unhappiness, a timeless classic setting in the comedy world.

Shi Xiaolong's presence in this scene was not very strong and nothing went wrong.

The first night's shooting was finished quickly.

The next night, it was more difficult to shoot the Li family’s dinner scene.

The Li family has two sisters and one younger brother.

The younger brother is okay. He is suppressed by the bloodline of the eldest sister and is very honest.

It’s different with my younger sister and older sister. They quarrel every day and often fight each other.

Liu Qianqian and Shu Chang are both only children and obviously have never experienced such a situation.

Progress is somewhat slow.

Shi Xiaolong watched from the side and felt a little nostalgic.

Although their ways of fighting were different, he and Xiaofeng also fought each other a lot when they were children.

This is something that is almost certain to happen in a family with many brothers and sisters.

Liu Qianqian and Shu Chang have not had such experience, but they have their own methods.

Women only have a few moves in a fight. Excluding some real fighting methods, the rest are nothing more than pulling hair and ears.

Liu Qianqian chose to pull the hair, and after the two demonstrated it several times, the formal shooting was quickly completed.

Everyone started to make arrangements for the next shoot.

Kong Sheng usually directs the scenes in the evening, while Chen Linfeng just watches.

Now the two are still in the running-in period, especially Kong Sheng, who is a new director and needs to establish his authority and get more familiar with his new subordinates.

Chen Linfeng had nothing to do, so he took over the job of the guy who was shooting the behind-the-scenes footage.

He held up the handheld camera and shot everywhere.

After a while, they started clapping at Liu Qianqian and Shu Chang.

Liu Qianqian lowered her head, still thinking about her previous mistake. When she saw Xiaofeng coming to take a picture of her, she just rolled her eyes and ignored him.

Who would have thought that Chen Linfeng would keep taking pictures of people's faces without changing the lens at all.

Liu Qianqian said angrily, "Keep taking pictures, keep taking pictures, be careful or I'll scold you."

Shu Chang couldn't help laughing.

Chen Linfeng also laughed, "I really want to see how the Fairy Sister does 'taunting people'. You just learned a new word and used it. Do you know what it means?"

"What's there to not know about this? It's almost the same as beating you up." Liu Qianqian looked like she could do nothing wrong to me.

"Almost. But strictly speaking, it means a severe reprimand, mainly used by elders to younger people, and superiors to subordinates."

Shu Chang was dumbfounded, "Ah? You don't mean to teach someone a lesson. I have heard this term since I was a child, and I have always misunderstood it."

Liu Qianqian tilted her head and asked, "I have a question I've always wanted to ask. Why is Wenzhu always so fierce as the older sister? I see that in many things, she actually cares about her younger brothers and sisters."

Chen Linfeng, the younger brother, answered, "Perhaps it is to maintain her dignity as a sister. Of course, sometimes her brothers and sisters may be too stupid in her eyes."

"Ahaha~" Shu Chang clapped his hands, "You're exposed, have you always looked at Xiaolong like this? It seems like you treat him as your younger brother."

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm going to sue you for defamation."

How could Chen Linfeng admit it?

Both girls looked at him teasingly.

After a while, the next shot was about to start, and Chen Linfeng stepped back.

This time he was no longer facing the shooting scene, but brought his camera to a room rented by the crew in the hotel.

When there are no scenes, other actors will gather here, some will chat with each other, some will read the script and memorize the lines later.

Chen Linfeng pushed the door open and found Qin Hao, Lei Jiayin, and Shi Xiaolong playing Landlord.

When Qin Hao noticed the director coming in, he reflexively wanted to drop the cards.

Chen Linfeng spoke first, "You guys play your own games, I'll just wander around."

"Then let's continue, a pair of 9s." Shi Xiaolong played his cards.

Chen Linfeng walked closer and pointed the camera at the cards in Xiaolong's hand.

Through the screen, we can see that Shi Xiaolong is still as bad at playing cards as ever and has bad luck.

Three pairs are missing one card, and five pairs are also missing one card.

Now he was scratching his head while tearing and throwing away the cards.

Chen Linfeng shook his head and stopped looking at their card game.

On the other side, Zhang Guoli was sitting with his legs crossed and reading a script.

He is not young, in fact, only one year younger than Li Xuejian. He is now in his fifties and still needs to wear reading glasses.

He lowered his glasses and saw that it was Chen Linfeng. He couldn't help but smile.

"Why is Director Chen still doing photography?"

Chen Linfeng put the camera aside and sat down to chat.

"Hi, nothing much, just some behind the scenes shots."

He talked about whatever came to mind. "Recently, many associations in the film and television industry have invited me to join. I remember that Teacher Zhang seems to be involved in more. Can you talk about this briefly?"

Zhang Guoli's expression changed. "This is good news. Where are they?"

"Not to mention the Cultural Association, there are also several others, such as the China Film Directors Association, the Film Association, the Producers Association, and the Radio and Television Association.

There is also the Television Artists Association. Oh, I know this. It is the China Television Association. I met their leaders before when I was at the Feitian Awards. "

"You misunderstood the last one."

Zhang Guoli corrected, "The China Television Association is the Television Artists Association, which is different from the Television Art Association.

The China Television Association is responsible for the Golden Eagle Awards, which is at the same level as the Film Association. The Film Association is the China Film Association, which is responsible for the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards.

Chen Linfeng shook his head in distress. "There are so many associations, and the names are almost the same. It really gives me a headache."

He blinked and asked, "Teacher Zhang knows a lot. Is there any harm in adding these associations? Can they be added at the same time?"

Zhang Guoli laughed and said, "What harm can there be? It's hard for ordinary people to have such an opportunity. These associations usually invite you only when you participate in their activities more often and show a tendency to get close to them."

At this point, he asked in confusion, "I remember that you didn't participate in many activities. How come these associations suddenly found you?"

"Yeah, I don't understand it either, and I've never been involved in it. It's sudden, so I just want to ask you."

"You really haven't participated in it?" Zhang Guoli was surprised.

He was also convinced that he was really talented and willful.

Since we are in Yanjing, our sensitivity in this regard is naturally higher than in other places.

Most people keep an eye on similar events and will definitely go if they are invited.

He didn't believe that Xiao Chen, with his status, would not receive an invitation.

Chen Linfeng said embarrassedly, “I’m usually a bit busy, and I usually don’t go to places that I’m not familiar with.

I will only go to some activities held by China Central Television and literary circles to join in the fun.

Last year, I was so busy writing scripts and novels that I barely participated in activities outside of my circle.”

Zhang Guoli sighed, "You are right to do this. If you focus on your own field, others will see it. Isn't this an olive branch extended to you by the higher-ups?"

He gave his heartfelt advice, "It's best to invite your association to join. Whether it's easy or not is another matter. But we should not let them down because they are kind-hearted."

Chen Linfeng nodded, that's true.

“Besides, this year’s timing is good.”

Zhang Guoli continued, "For example, the Chinese Television Association and several other associations all had their terms changed last year or the year before. If you join them to gain some experience, you can at least be elected as a director in the next term. It won't delay you at all."

"Okay, I'll listen to Teacher Zhang. I'll join in one by one later."

Chen Linfeng himself also tends to add it in.

He has long been dissatisfied with some domestic award mechanisms, but being outside, he could only complain and was actually powerless to do anything. Only once he got in would he see if he had the opportunity to make some difference.

Over the years, history has changed somewhat because of him.

Chen Linfeng really wants to continue playing the role of a time traveler.

The two were chatting when suddenly a little girl ran in.

As soon as she saw Chen Linfeng, her eyes lit up and she rushed over.

"Brother Jingyu, I'm here to play with you."

"It's Yaya, why did you run out by yourself? Where are your parents?"

This is the sister of the character played by Chen Linfeng in the play. Her surname is also Zhang, and even her name has not changed much.

The little girl in the play is called by her nickname, Zhang Yaya, her real name is Zhang Yaqi, and she is 4 years old.

In order to prevent her from calling him the wrong name during filming, Chen Linfeng directly told her that his name was Zhang Jingyu.

The two of them have become completely familiar with each other over the past few days.

"I came here to play with you!" Zhang Yaqi emphasized again.

Chen Linfeng looked at Zhang Guoli, "Teacher Zhang, I'll take her out to play first and won't disturb you from reading the script."

"Okay, we'll talk again when we have a chance." Zhang Guoli put on his glasses and started reading the script again.
