Chapter 147 "Old Boy" MV Completion
In the film and television city.

Hearing He Xiao's words, Huang Jun was taken aback.

He is a director from Ye Luzi, not a major, and he doesn't have the professional knowledge of Fu Jinglong, but fortunately, he has been in the industry for a long time. Over the years, he has learned the basic shooting techniques, otherwise he would not be able to be a deputy director. The position of the director.

However, living under the shadow of Fu Jinglong and being ignored by the company's leaders, he naturally thought about getting ahead.

Now that Fu Jinglong left, he became the only director in the crew.

At this time, hearing He Xiao's words again, his heartbeat accelerated involuntarily.

If he can really shoot a high-quality MV, his reputation in the industry will naturally become like that of Fu Jinglong three years ago, and he will become famous in one battle.

Is this an opportunity?
"Brother Huang, come on, I believe in you!"

He Xiao patted him on the shoulder, and said with a look of entrusting him with a heavy responsibility.

He has watched the MV of "Old Boy" and knows what kind of picture he wants, but he does not have the professional knowledge as a director. He has never learned these things, so he can't shoot it.

It's like cooking. He doesn't know anything about cooking, but he has a cookbook in his hand, and he knows what to do. If he finds another chef to cooperate, then the dish will be ready.

After hearing He Xiao's words, Huang Jun was very moved. No one wants to be an assistant director for the rest of his life. People go to high places and water flows to low places. He also wants to climb up and survive.

However, although Huang Jun was tempted, he still had concerns in his heart. The opportunity to stand out was right in front of him, and he had to have corresponding strength in his hands.

As a cook, he didn't know that He Xiao was holding the recipe in his hand, so he was uncertain at this time. After all, in terms of talent, he was indeed not as good as Fu Jinglong.

Without this diamond, how dare you work with porcelain?
Seeing Huang Jun struggling in his heart, he sighed and said, "Xiao He, I will act as a director for you, but I don't have the knowledge of other director Fu, so I'm afraid I'll blow it up for you."

He Xiao knew Huang Jun's concerns, fearing that he was not as good as Fu Jinglong's random script, so he put his arms around the old man's shoulder and gave him a reassurance.

"Don't worry, Brother Huang, I know how to shoot my works. I have that picture in my heart. Just help me steer the helm. The wind blows to me."

Hearing this, Huang Jun's face softened a little.

Since he won't be allowed to take the blame if the shoot fails, then naturally there will be no worries.

"Success! I will shoot whatever you say, Xiao He!"

Huang Jun gritted his teeth, looking like he was going all out.

After all, this is the first time in my life to shoot an MV, and the company has invested tens of millions of funds as a fee, so it is a bit of a pressure to put it on anyone.

1000 million investment, a full eight figures, he may not be able to earn it in his life.

It is quite difficult to make this determination now, but at the same time there is a little excitement.

It's finally over.

Even if he can only be the chief director for one day, that is enough for him to be comfortable.

A smile bloomed on He Xiao's face, he looked around the film and television base, and said.

"Brother Huang, let everyone pack up, let's change places to shoot."

The style of the Shanghai Film and Television Base is too old, and there are not many people in the city. They are all film crews. It is nonsense to shoot "Old Boy" here.

He is going to the streets and alleys outside, looking for places with the most breath of life, and recording the life pictures of ordinary people.

At noon, the sky was a little overcast.

He Xiao led the entire crew to retreat, and five vans drove out of the film and television city in a mighty manner.

Shi Dachui, who was sleeping at the door listening to the ditty, was awakened by the noisy sound. He squinted his eyes and looked out, and was immediately startled.

"Brother Xiao, why did you finish filming so quickly?"

He wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, got down from the driver's seat, opened the door for He Xiao and asked.

"It hasn't been filmed yet, the director told me to run away, let's change the location to shoot."

He smiled and said, and at the same time stepped aside and invited Huang Jun into the nanny car.

Shi Sledgehammer was stunned.

What the hell?
Drive the director away?

What the hell is going on?

Hearing He Xiaofeng say such a sentence calmly, he was immediately confused.

But he didn't dare to ask any more questions, put away his gossip, quickly started the car and took the five vans to the place He Xiao pointed out.

on the back seat.

He Xiao took out four bottles of soda from the refrigerator in the car, opened them with a bottle opener, and distributed one bottle to each person in the car.

Bao Yuanyuan had stopped crying, but her eyes were still red and swollen. She sat in the back row with her head down and dared not speak.

Fu Jinglong really scared her, because with Fu Jinglong's position in Le Jia, as long as she casually mentioned a few words to the company's leaders, she, a small assistant, could immediately pack her bag and leave.

After finding such a job with great difficulty, Bao Yuanyuan always took it very seriously, and couldn't believe how hard it would be for her to be fired.

He Xiao looked back at her and comforted her, "Don't worry, no one can fire you."

"Yeah, it's not your fault. Director Fu was angry just now, girl, you don't have to be afraid." Huang Jun also answered from the side.

After following Fu Jinglong for so long, he knows exactly what kind of temper the other party has.

Mian Youxinsheng's words were not wrong at all. Fortunately, Fu Jinglong became a director, otherwise he would be a disaster in the society sooner or later.

Maybe one day, you will see the gossip about the arrest of "Brother Long, a criminal gang" on TV.

After touching the Arctic Ocean drink in his hand with Huang Jun, He Xiao bypassed the topic of Fu Jinglong and began to tell him about the scenes he wanted to shoot.

The reason why "Old Boy" became popular is that its original video MV is so down-to-earth, expressing the unattainable dreams of ordinary people to the fullest, and touched millions of netizens.

He Xiao wanted to capture the feeling of the original video, so he explained it to Huang Jun in detail, and the other party gradually understood what He Xiao wanted to express.

To be honest, this is the first time Huang Jun has encountered an actor speaking to a director.

But while feeling absurd, he had to admit that He Xiao's thinking was too advanced.

Most of the MV style shoots pay attention to an artistic sense, and try to highlight the style as much as possible. This is the first time I have seen one like He Xiao who specializes in talking about life in the city.

The convoy eventually stopped in front of an alley.

This is the alley, the ordinary hidden behind the glamorous metropolis of Shanghai.

Some people say that this is a gathering place for the poor. When He Xiao walked in, there were laundry poles dotted in the air in the alley, and the clothes on them fluttered like flags.

A group of people walked down the alley to the depths, and what they saw was the ordinary life of people at the lowest level.

The broken bricks and tiles are trampled underfoot, unfinished operas are heard from the old windows that open outwards, a plain-faced woman is standing in front of the door, shaking the freshly washed clothes in her hands, and her child is squatting in the spittoon at the door Pee on.

Full of human fireworks.

Seeing He Xiao's group of people carrying cameras coming, the neighbors all looked around.

"Hello neighbors, we are part of the film crew, come here to borrow our small alley to shoot a scene, and cause trouble to all neighbors, we will pay everyone as compensation."

He Xiao took a trumpet from Huang Jun and said as he walked.

Hearing the money to get it, there was a patter of yelling in the alley, and the neighbors talked excitedly.

"Is there anyone else coming to our poor place to film?"

"I've seen this guy on TV, he seems to be a singer!"

"Whatever, just give the money anyway."

There was a loud voice in the ear, but no one objected, which made both He Xiao and Huang Jun look happy.

Very smooth framing!

Everyone began to evacuate the neighborhood, busy setting up the scene, and nothing happened during the whole process.

The sky was completely dark, and layers of dark clouds did not know when they gathered above the head.

At four o'clock in the afternoon.

He Xiao is wearing a school uniform, holding a guitar in his hand, and preparing to shoot his first scene.

With one foot on the chair, the sound of the guitar echoed in the alley.

This shot is only five or six seconds in the MV, but He Xiao has to shoot it for a few minutes, and then choose a section to intercept.

"Xiao He, what do you see?"

After filming, Huang Jun handed He Xiao a bottle of water, and the two of them lay down in front of the monitor to watch the replay of the performance just now.

For a few minutes of footage, only five or six seconds of one segment is enough.

But He Xiao frowned, his performance in this part was a little out of place.

At least in terms of expression, there is no desired feeling.

"Let's take another shot."

He Xiao shook his head and denied this.

"This... okay."

Huang Jun hesitated before agreeing.

In his eyes, this episode is actually pretty good. After all, it's just a MV, and it's not a serious movie, so there's no need to compete so much.

But now the real speaker of the crew is He Xiao, and he can only listen to other people's arrangements.

I took three or four photos in a row and was not satisfied.

Although it took only a few 10 minutes for all these shots, if the time for setting up the scene and restarting the shooting was removed, it actually took more than half an hour.

It's just that He Xiao didn't shout, and everyone didn't dare to complain, so they had to start over again and again.

It was getting darker and darker, with dark clouds and thunder.

"Xiao He, let's do this today. It's not a good day. It's going to rain soon."

Seeing that He Xiao was still dissatisfied with the shot he took just now, Huang Jun couldn't help persuading him.

Although it is located in the south, the temperature in winter is also very low, only two or three degrees above zero.

Coupled with the torrential rain today, the temperature is probably even lower when the wind blows.

After He Xiao heard this, he stood in place for a moment, then looked up at the sky, and there were lightning bolts above, brightening most of the sky.

It was too late to say it, and then it was too late, and the big raindrops had already fallen with a thunderbolt.

The little assistant Bao Yuanyuan appeared immediately, held an umbrella for He Xiao, and handed it to Huang Jun by the way.

The machine is covered with a cloth, which does not affect the operation, and it is still running at this time.

Everyone looked at He Xiao, waiting for his order.

After all, it was raining, and it was very likely that the scene would not be able to be filmed.

He Xiao looked up at the sky, looking at the thick lightning bolts, but a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"This rain came just in time!"

He Xiao shouted to everyone with a loudspeaker: "Take the last one, remember to include the sound of thunder and rain in it."

After finishing speaking, he rushed out immediately, and the school uniform on his body was instantly pierced, sticking to his body wetly.

Huang Jun showed surprise for the first time, looking sideways at He Xiao.

In this era when the little fresh meat would post on Weibo for attention if he cut his finger, and would like to get anesthesia if he cut his head, He Xiao didn't need a body double, and he went into the rain by himself. This kind of behavior is really impressive.

You know, this is not artificial rain with sprinklers, but real rain, which is far less clean than the former.

"Attention all departments, the sixth shooting of the first scene of the first act has begun!"

Huang Jun knocked down the black and white slate, which is called "playing the board" in jargon, and notified everyone to take their positions.

Everyone responded, the lighting engineer raised the reflector, and the cameraman moved forward.

He Xiao stood under the heavy rain, his face was full of stubbornness, rubbed his "face" and continued to play the guitar.

This time, with the assistance of the rain, that emotion and feeling was finally created.

The first shot is considered complete.

It took a whole afternoon to shoot!
Everyone didn't complain, took off their raincoats, hid under the eaves of the alley, or sheltered from the rain in the houses, and waited for the sun to start shooting the second scene.

The MV of "Old Boy" is divided into two sections, one is the good memories of the school days, and the other is the cruel life now and the vision for the future.

And He Xiao is not the only protagonist, there are also a lot of shots of ordinary people.

The office worker eating instant noodles, the barbecue stall owner wiping his sweat, the foot-washing girl crying alone...

The life of ordinary people will be shown in this MV.

That night, there was still water left after the rainstorm on the road, He Xiao had already left the alley with the crew, and went out to shoot scenes again.

Under the bustling metropolis, their figures appear in every street, recording every bit of life until dawn.

Without a rest all day and night, Huang Jun couldn't hold it anymore. He glanced at He Xiao, who was sitting in front of the monitor, and fell asleep in the car in a daze.

The director has rested, and the staff naturally started to get off work.

Of course, their off-duty time is exactly the working time of others.

After a week of such days, the shooting of the old boy's MV was finally completed.

Even Huang Jun couldn't help but praise He Xiao. It's really rare to see such a desperate young artist like him.

"Xiao He, your body is important."

Looking at the finished film, Huang Jun advised He Xiao while being proud from the bottom of his heart.

Although it was He Xiao who instructed the whole process, he also contributed a lot. After all, without him as a cook, this dish would not be possible.

With honor!

This was the first MV he directed in his life. Looking at the screen on the computer, he could already imagine what kind of sensation this video would cause after editing and adding the song "Old Boy".

Such a lively MV is definitely the first in the industry.

"Isn't youth just for fighting? Besides, this is only the first song. We have to speed up the progress. There are still twelve more!"

He Xiao stretched his waist and said with a smile.

The crew of the crew ran around with him these days, but they were exhausted.

Obviously it's just a MV, but it's more professional than other people's filmmakers.

Just when the filming of "Old Boy" was over here.

The news of Fu Jinglong being pissed off finally reached Yu Xiao's ears...
