Huayu: Starting from intercepting Duan Yu

Chapter 131: Little Days Country Explodes, Daily Life of the Crew

Chapter 131: Little Days Country Explodes, Daily Life of the Crew (100 Monthly Tickets for Extra Updates!)
Ever since Xu Yi won three major awards at Cannes, he has gained a certain degree of fame in his country.

This country is like this, it worships the strong to the extreme.

As long as you really have the ability, they will recognize you.

However, this may also be because their American father forced them to be like this.

Knowing that I couldn't resist my father, I found a reason for myself.

Because Dad is so strong, it is reasonable for them not to resist.

And no matter what, Huaguo was once their father.

Xiaoziziguo is not opposed to Chinese culture.

This is worthy of praise.

Unlike South Korea, which yearns for its former father’s culture but dares not admit it.

So they had no choice but to steal in secret and do some shameful things.

Afterwards, Xu Yi's movie "Love" was released in the United States.

Because it is extremely consistent with the current situation of the country of easy living and is also the country's favorite style, the box office is a huge hit.

This caused Xu Yi's popularity to rise significantly again.

Later, NHK, the largest TV station in the United States, bought out all the copyrights of "Chinese Paladin" in the United States.

And after it was broadcast in China, it became a big hit again.

At the same time, Xu Yi also played the leading male role this time.

As a result, his popularity and fame in the country of Xiaorizi reached its peak!

So this time Xu Yi’s album will also be released in Xiao Ri Zi Country.

It was only released a few days later than in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan because it had to be played on demand and ranked on the show first.

This is not Xu Yi's deliberate attempt to please Xiaozizi Country.

They really gave too much!

You should know that Xu Yi's albums are sold at around 30 Chinese yuan in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

But in the country of Xiaorizi, the price of an album is as high as 3000 yen.

According to the current exchange rate, it is equivalent to 220 Chinese yuan!

This is also the album price that can only be achieved by the top singers in the country!

Not only that, with Xu Yi's singing skills, even if you don't understand the lyrics.

However, after the song was played on the Xiao Ri Zi Country program, it immediately caused a huge sensation.

Various professional music critics have given high praise to Xu Yi's album and singing skills.

So much so that sales reached 10 copies on the first day of release!

Sales exceeded 20 copies in three days!

Then when this news was exposed by the domestic media.

Countless domestic netizens were also dumbfounded.

"What's going on? Is Xu Yi so popular in Xiaori Country?"

"The key is that he's popular, but this guy released a Chinese album. Can people in China really understand it?"

"And a single album from Xiao Rizi in China can actually sell for over 200 Chinese yuan. It's simply a steal!"

"Xu Yi is making a fortune again!"

"And those guys from Hong Kong and Taiwan, in Xu Yi's words, they must have been completely defeated now!"

"Of course. Our sales in China are greater than those in Hong Kong and Taiwan combined, and the price is several times higher. Even if we completely lose the Hong Kong and Taiwan market, Xu Yi probably won't care at all!"

"The Hong Kong and Taiwan markets are nothing in Xu Yi's eyes!"

……

“Congratulations, Director!”

“The director is awesome!”

"Director, can we have chicken legs for lunch?"

The crew of "Chinese Paladin 3".

Early in the morning, Xu Yigang arrived at the crew.

Immediately, congratulations were heard.

Xu Yi also smiled and nodded in response.

And at this moment, the actors in the crew looked at Xu Yi with eyes.

In addition to envy, there is also a hint of admiration.

In fact, many people still have doubts about Xu Yi's directing skills.

The same goes for some actors in the crew who have never seen Xu Yi filming.

Because Xu Yi is too young.

Other abilities may be explained by talent and gifts.

However, a director’s level cannot be improved without a certain amount of accumulation.

Besides, Xu Yi graduated from the acting department, not the directing department.

But now, in just a few days, everyone in the crew has become completely convinced of Xu Yi's abilities!

Under Xu Yi's command, the operation of the entire crew has not encountered any mistakes so far.

The shooting progress is also progressing steadily according to the original plan without any delay.

Also, every time Xu Yi explains the play to the actors, he can easily make them understand.

Or if that doesn't work, he can demonstrate it himself.

So much so that every time this happens, it gives people a feeling.

That is, if he is not afraid of trouble, he can play all the roles by himself!

As for assistant director Zhou Xiaowen, who was initially believed to be the real director...

He is just a pure tool!

In addition to being responsible for executing the orders of director Xu Yi.

The only job was to sit behind the camera and watch Xu Yi act...

Then, after the scene was ready, Xu Yi once again confirmed today's shooting tasks with Zhou Xiaowen and the stage manager.

As a director, I have to arrange the day's shooting tasks and explain the scenes to the actors before filming begins every day.

However, due to the tight filming schedule, most of these things will be done after work in the evening.

In order to meet deadlines, many crews shoot from dawn to early morning.

Some crews even go so far as to calculate the sunrise time every day.

Make sure you make the most of every day!
However, Xu Yi's crew was not that excessive.

Basically, the shooting time is maintained from 9 am to 9 pm.

After finishing work, I spend another hour or two arranging tasks for the next day and explaining the scenes to the actors who have scenes for the next day.

And when it comes to filming, if the actor is not in good condition, adjustments can be made slowly.

He invested in this play himself, so he doesn't care whether the cost is higher or lower.

Including the crew's accommodation and food conditions, as well as the meals for extras, they are definitely the best among all the nearby crews.

Because only when the shooting effect is better can the selling price be higher.

The points can also be more.

With his current popularity, even if the photos he takes are average, he won’t have to worry about not being able to sell them at a high price.

But he didn't want to ruin his reputation.

What's more, with his strong coordination ability, as long as there are no major problems in the crew.

A small problem in shooting will not waste much time.

Generally speaking, there are two types of directors.

One is a coordinating director, and the other is a technical director.

The director of the overall planning type is responsible for coordinating the operation of the entire crew, ensuring that the filming of the play can be completed smoothly and there will be no major mistakes in any aspect.

But what kind of artistic quality do you want in the movies he makes?

Or something that catches the eye.

That's a bit difficult.

For example, Zhang Yimou is a typical coordinating director.

Let him organize a big party, no problem.

It’s okay to let him shoot a big scene.

Or give him a good script and he can make a good movie.

This is already a very good director.

But his artistry comes almost entirely from the script.

Or the actors' own performances.

It has little to do with his shooting techniques and expression methods.

Of course, if photography can be considered a skill.

Then he can also be considered a pretty good photographer.

It’s just that aesthetics needs to keep up with the times.

Technical directors are typically Quentin or Lanno.

There will always be something different for you.

However, it might not be appropriate to let them shoot big scenes.

As for Xu Yi, he is naturally an all-round director!

There are also two ways to shoot movies and TV series.

One is the forward beat and the other is the skip beat.

As the name suggests, chronological shooting means shooting in the order of the plot.

The advantage is that it places low demands on the director.

Moreover, it is easier for the actors to get into the mood, and the filming results are better.

The downside is that it's an extreme waste of time and money.

Skip shooting means shooting all the scenes in one scene and then moving on to another scene.

The advantage is that it saves time and money.

The downside is that it places high demands on the actors.

It also requires sufficient preparation in advance to ensure that there is no need for rework or reshoots.

Xu Yi naturally chose the skip-shot method.

With his current directing level and memory.

All the plots and scenes had already appeared in his mind.

If it weren't for the other actors, they would still have to follow the script.

He didn't even have to write a script.

As for accommodation and food, there is no need to mention it.

He can't just stay in a five-star hotel and eat big meals every day.

But let the crew stay in ordinary hotels or small inns and eat ordinary boxed lunches?

He would neither do such a thing nor would he treat himself badly.

Moreover, if you have good accommodation and good food, the photos may not necessarily turn out better.

But if you don’t live well and eat well, the photos you take will definitely not be good.

Finally, some dramas will have several directors, divided into several groups to start filming at the same time.

This situation is most common in TV dramas.

For example, the martial arts drama starring Zhang Da Hu Zi.

And when Xu Yi was filming "Chinese Paladin" before.

However, the effect of shooting in this way is definitely not as good as that shot by a single director and a single camera.

However, when filming "Chinese Paladin", the director of the other group was Ning Hao, who was quite capable.

So it’s not a big problem.

But this time, "Chinese Paladin 3" was basically directed and filmed entirely by Xu Yi himself.

……

"Hiss...it's still more comfortable in the car. If I had known it would be so hard, I wouldn't have chosen to be the protagonist..."

As soon as the morning scenes were finished, Yang Mi immediately ran into Jing Tian's RV.

Then he complained while feeling the cool temperature in the RV.

It is July now, the hottest time of the year.

Even if there are fans on the set, they only blow out hot air.

What's more, she was wearing makeup and a costume.

air conditioner?

Which film crew has air conditioning in this era?
Besides, even if there is one, it can’t be used outdoors!
"If you don't want to act, just say so earlier. There are plenty of people who want to act!"

Jing Tian also got into the RV.

He was holding two lunch boxes in his hands.

She has nowhere to go during her holidays.

I don't want to go anywhere else.

I followed Xu Yi to the crew.

Anyway, I have a motorhome and can rest anytime.

"Tsk, if I didn't owe that guy 600 million, I wouldn't be acting!"

Yang Mi snorted with disdain.

To her, these 600 million are like the Five Elements Mountain pressing down on Monkey King.

Only when she has paid off all the debts will she be completely free!

But then she looked at Jing Tian cautiously again.

"You can't say that to that guy..."
