Chapter 39: Difficulties encountered by the crew

I am an old drama star. This costume is full of drama. I can handle the role of Grandma Rong with ease.

After taking two steps, a ferocious face was revealed, as if she were an old witch in the deep palace. No matter how she looked at her, she gave people a feeling of hatred and panic from the bottom of her heart.

The director was very satisfied with Mr. Li Mingqi's performance and said he wanted to film it directly.

Professional actors are professional actors, that is to say, after reading the script for more than an hour, Teacher Li Mingqi actually fell into the play directly.

During the filming, although Lin Xinru said that she knew it was all fake, she was still a little frightened when she saw Grandma Rong's sinister look, and she couldn't help but become scared.

Lin Xinru was a little nervous, having never experienced the first two.

The director could only stand up and say: "Mr. Li, please restrain yourself a little. If you keep suppressing her, there will be no way to film the scene."

Lin Xinru's acting skills are still not as good as Li Mingqi's. She has been suppressed like this, so when speaking her lines, she is a little unable to do what she wants.

Li Mingqi laughed heartily and said: "Don't worry, director, I will tighten it a little next time. I guarantee there will be no problem."

Why have those veteran actors been active in the film and television circles for decades? Although they have not been recognized by any actor or actress, their acting skills allow them to master various roles with ease.

The third time, Li Mingqi really restrained his acting skills. At this time, Lin Xinru was able to cope with it freely and was able to film her lines smoothly.

When the seventh shot was shot, the director finally nodded with satisfaction and called it a day.

It was rare to have a little break in filming. There was no scene for Ye Ming this afternoon, so he specifically asked for leave from the crew.

Just when Ye Ming wanted to sneak away, suddenly, a clear voice said loudly from behind: "I caught you, you want to sneak away, don't you?"

There is no need to look back, Ye Ming can also know that it is the little girl Fan Binbin who did such a thing.

Just in time, there is no role for her today.

Turning around, Ye Ming said angrily: "What did you catch me? I asked for leave. I wanted to go out for something. When did I sneak away secretly?"

When she heard that Ye Ming was going out, Fan Binbin suddenly became excited. The intensive shooting in the past two days had left her almost exhausted. At such a time, Fan Binbin was eager to go out.

Pretending to be pitiful, Fan Binbin looked at Ye Ming very cutely and said, "Brother Ming, I haven't been out for a while. How about you take me with you and I can relax too?"

Ye Ming immediately became more vigilant and looked at Fan Binbin, seeming to have doubts about her words.

After being stunned for a moment, Ye Mingcai said: "There is no show for you today. You asked for leave."

Who doesn't say that if there is no play for you, you don't have to be present? This is the right of big names. If there is no play for you, you don't have to be there.

As for newcomers, at a time like this, whether there is a play or not, they have to report to the crew.

Even if it is announced that your scene will not be available, what if the director remembers to reshoot a scene? Who can guarantee this?

Therefore, newcomers generally have to be present even if there is a scene without you.

For example, Ye Ming obviously didn't have any scenes for him today, but if he wanted to go out, he still had to ask for leave from the crew. This was an unspoken rule.

It's really hard to say whether Fan Binbin asked for leave.

Fan Binbin said unceremoniously: "Brother Ming, don't worry. I watched the scene with Sister Weiwei and the others. It was absolutely impossible to shoot in the whole morning. It's even hard to say whether it can be completed by the afternoon. We can go out with confidence.”

Ye Ming was naturally not at ease. It was absolutely possible for Fan Binbin to lie in order to get out. He dragged him to ask Chao Guoli for leave, and even made Fan Binbin's angry mouth curl up, as if he could hang three pounds of pork at a time.

Sure enough, Fan Binbin didn't ask for leave. This girl has always been a weak point when it comes to food and road addiction.

However, in the end, Ye Ming still took her out with compassion.

However, Ye Ming also warned her in advance that he was not going to have fun, but that he had something to do at the patent office.

Although Fan Binbin was also very curious as to why Ye Ming went to the patent office and chased him repeatedly, his curiosity was like killing the cat.

However, Ye Ming is like a rock that has not moved for thousands of years. He is completely tight-lipped. He only talks about some things and does not say anything at all.

Before going out, I met Zhang Tielin and Hai Bo, two old drama stars, who were teasing Sister Hua.

Looking at the retreating figures of Ye Ming and Fan Binbin, Hai Bo also sighed: "Young people nowadays are really full of energy. People like us can't compare. If we have some time, we just run out to play. Not tired at all.”

Zhang Tielin teased Sister Hua while saying: "If that girl Binbin is out, she will definitely go out to look for food. Afraid of not being able to find her way back, this little confused kid hired Ye Ming to serve as a guide. As for Ye Ming , this kid is very scheming, he will never settle for just being an actor, I saw him hanging around the camera crew the past two days, God knows what this kid is thinking."

Ye Ming was true to his word. He went to the Patent Office and came out after receiving a document. Fan Binbin repeatedly asked what was in the document bag, but Ye Ming refused to tell him.

However, when he arrived at the nearby snack street, Fan Binbin saw the mountains and seas of delicious food and had long forgotten about the document bag in Ye Ming's hand.

When the crew finished shooting a scene, Chao Guoli suddenly came over with a hesitant look on his face and said: "Director, let me tell you some bad news. The film studio has said that it does not agree to renew the contract. The time we set is two weeks. We must If the place is vacated within two weeks, other crews will take over the place in the future and will not give us any extra time at all."

Originally, it was scheduled to be a two-week drama, but at this time, it was obviously impossible. Another actor was changed, and although the cooperation between newcomers Ye Ming, Zhao Wei and Lin Xinru was becoming more and more skilled, However, it is impossible to complete the filming of two interests.

Sun Shupei frowned and said a little at a loss: "What does Manager He say? Isn't it okay to ask her to negotiate?"

Chao Guoli reluctantly let go of her hand and said: "This is the result of Manager He's negotiation. If Manager He hadn't come forward, we might have been kicked out in advance."

After all, the influence of Qiong Yao's crew is the same. Although this crew looks a little shabby, the film industry does not dare to go too far. They do not have the courage to let the cast of Huanzhugege leave in advance.

But if we meet a small crew, it's really hard to say whether we can keep these two weeks.

The entertainment industry has always been like this, the jungle prevails, no one can blame others.

Sun Shupei hesitated and said, "There are still a few scenes to be shot today. Can they be completed on time?"

Chao Guoli checked the records, smiled bitterly and said: "It's not easy. According to the progress of the past two days, it is already very rare that two of the remaining four scenes today can be completed on time. Moreover, there are also There is an important scene where Gege goes to the execution ground. The requirements for this scene are very high and it is the focus of the entire TV series. Aunt Qiong Yao asked us to complete this scene according to the shooting quality of the movie."

During the filming break, in a temporary office, Sun Shupei summoned everyone with a serious face and said: "I came to you today to let you know in advance that the scene this afternoon is one of the most grand scenes in the entire TV series. It is also the most complicated play that uses the most extras. Moreover, Aunt Qiongyao asked us to use movie shooting techniques to make this play a highlight of the whole play. This is not easy. "

Chao Guoli took over and said: "There are two difficulties in shooting to meet Auntie's requirements, one is the camera and the other is the group performance.

The lens we use is Sony, but it is okay to shoot TV series with Sony lenses, but our Sony lens is a bit disadvantaged when used to shoot movies. Especially when the rail car is moving at high speed, if there is shaking, the scene will have to happen again, and Sony's lens simply cannot meet the requirements. "

This is a difficult problem, and this problem must be solved by He Xiuqiong.

At that moment, He Xiuqiong asked: "If we change the lens, is it too late?"

Sun Shupei said very helplessly: "This is almost impossible. If we want to meet the shooting requirements, we must replace it with an Angenieux lens. The price is as high as more than 70,000 US dollars. We simply cannot afford to replace it, even a second-hand one." , which is also around US$30,000. In fact, there are no more than ten film crews in China that have this kind of lens.”

In fact, what Sun Shupei said was very clear, and He Xiuqiong also knew very well that without money, the crew would not have the money to exchange for even a second-hand Angenieux lens.

Only then did He Xiuqiong realize that things were not that easy to handle.

Suddenly, she also fell into silence. More than 200,000 yuan was a very large expense and it was impossible to do it.

At this time, Sun Shupei looked at the actors and said, "Today we have called everyone together to ask everyone to cheer up and try to get through. This is the best way. As for the camera, Manager He and I will think of a solution."

At this time, Ye Ming suddenly raised his hand and said: "Director, did you say that the problem of shaking of the rail car during high-speed operation has been solved, which can solve the problem of the lens."

Sun Shupei nodded and said with certainty: "There are two ways to solve the problem with this lens. One is to replace the lens, which is obviously impossible. We can't afford to replace the second-hand Angenieux lens, and we don't have enough time. Another thing is to solve the problem of shaking caused by the high-speed operation of the rail car. After solving this problem, I am confident that even with a Sony lens, I can shoot as required."

Chao Guoli added: "The latter one is almost impossible. No one can solve such a problem until now." (To be continued)
