Chapter 235: Grand Master Li who pretended to be a failure
Jin Province, the set of "Bright Sword".
Zuo Le pulled Zhou Song, who played the role of Monk Wei, to play with him, Li Youbin was dressed in an eight-way military uniform, and he was watching the excitement next to him.
With his acting skills, it is not a major event, basically Zuo Le will probably talk to him, and he will be able to perfectly perform the effect Zuo Le wants.
Very few did not meet Zuo Le's expectations, and the two sides could communicate and pass smoothly quickly.
Therefore, in the crew of "Bright Sword", Li Youbin was rarely pulled by Zuo Le to talk about the play.
Compared with Li Youbin, who saw the emperor twice, Zhou Song was obviously a little worse.........
Zhou Song, a native of Yunnan Province, although he is Wu Yue's junior brother, he is three years older than Wu Yue, because he is a halfway apprentice, and he has graduated from junior high school when he learns martial arts.
Zhou Song, who has been fond of martial arts culture since he was a child, has been looking forward to learning martial arts since he was a child, and after failing the high school entrance examination, his family trust relationship let him worship his teacher.
Of course, it can't be compared with Wu Yue and Wu Jing of Tong Zigong, but compared to ordinary martial arts in the entertainment industry, he can be regarded as a good player.
Speaking of which, Zhou Song's original intention of entering the entertainment industry is similar to Wu Jing's, both of which are to become action superstars like Cheng and Li.
Well, it should be said that anyone who practices martial arts in the entertainment industry, whether it is a martial arts trick or a new star old man, nine times out of ten they have this dream.
However, dreams are not so easy to make.
Wu Jing is okay, although his appearance is not top-notch, he can also be called a handsome character, plus he has a certain talent in acting, and he plays beautifully, even if he doesn't have a lot of resources, but at least there are people who praise him from time to time.
Zhou Song is miserable, he is tall and strong, five big and three thick, his natural image is limited, he has been in the circle for a few years, and he has done the most is a special actor.
For example, murderers, robbers, bandit A, general B, bodyguard C, passers-by and so on.
The income is barely enough to make ends meet, but if you want to get ahead, there is basically no chance.
It wasn't until 2018 that Zuo Le filmed "Seven Swords", and after his senior brother Wu Yue recommended him to play Daben, Zhou Song tasted the taste of popularity.
is also a "descendant of the seven swords", compared with the other six swords, Zhou Song's red is a bit "cold"
Lan Xin (Shui Miao Miao) and Song Shasha (Zhang Jiajia) are popular flowers in the circle and public goddesses.
Doctor Dou (Mao Xiao), Hou Zhen (Fan Min), and Pan Da (Sha Yi) were all promoted to the front line and were well-known in the circle.
Hong Miao (Yuan Ye) is not as high as others because he is concentrating on his drama career, but thanks to the popularity of Hong Miao, the male protagonist of "Seven Swords", coupled with his good looks, he has starred in several other dramas and is stable in the upper reaches of the second line.
And Zhou Song is the worst developed one, barely making it to the third line, from a former special actor, to a supporting role with certain lines.
However, Zhou Song himself is still very satisfied, he has long forgotten the dream of becoming a new generation of action superstar, and now there is no shortage of film contracts, a stable career, and what more bicycles.
However, sometimes the luck road comes, and it can't be stopped.
First, Gao Xinjian and Gao Director contacted him to leave enough time to shoot "Seven Swords 2", and later his nobleman Zuo Le called him to invite him to participate in an important role in the new drama "Bright Sword".
Really, when Zhou Song learned these two news, he wanted to call home and ask his father if the ancestral tomb had been on fire and smoking in the past two days, and why was pie smashed in the sky.
Not to mention the corner of "Seven Swords 2", Zhou Song knows in his heart, as long as the sequel to "Seven Swords" is filmed, it must be the original team.
But the role of Monk Wei in "Bright Sword" really gave him a great surprise.
What does participating in Zuo Le's new drama mean for an actor, Zhou Song understands it better than most people, because he acted in Zuo Le's TV series from a nobody, and then became famous and popular.
And now, compared with that year, Zuo Le's fame and status in the circle have doubled, and the important role of his new drama, to exaggerate, can even make a small actor ascend to the sky in one step.
Although Zhou Song is very satisfied with his current status, he will not be stupid enough to refuse if he can continue to climb up.
"Seven Swords 2" plus "Bright Sword", if the ratings are good, it is enough for Zhou Song to enter the second line, you must know that the difference between the salaries of second-tier artists and third-tier artists is not half a star
Therefore, Zhou Song cherished this opportunity to play Monk Wei very much, and worked hard after coming to the crew.
He followed Zuo Le to shoot "Seven Swords", and knew Zuo Le's temper, if he couldn't play the role of Monk Wei well, Zuo Le would not compromise for fear of delaying time, and Zuo Le would definitely be able to do it.
............
After a while, Zuo Le and Zhou Song finished talking about the scene and beckoned the crew to prepare to start filming.
Monk Wei who escaped from the prisoner camp was rescued by Zhao Gang who came to report to the independent regiment on the way.
Zuo Le sat behind the monitor, looked at the actors who were already in place, and raised the loudspeaker: "Everyone is in place - start." ”
————
In the courtyard of the farmhouse where the regimental headquarters of the independent regiment was located, Monk Wei, dressed in a tattered yellow military uniform, held a stone barbell with both hands.
Li Yunlong walked out of the room and circled around Monk Wei for half a circle: "Monk, show me your hands." ”
Monk Wei put down the barbell, he was born in the Central Army, he was a little disdainful of the Eight Roads except for the life-saving benefactor Zhao Gang, and glanced at Li Yunlong without speaking.
Li Yunlong is a thief, seeing that Monk Wei ignored him, he casually resorted to a radical method.
"I think intellectuals love to brag, and they can say flowers when they have nothing to do, how can it be, four devils, and barehanded. ”
Monk Wei is a kind of temperament, and his personality is reckless, so he immediately fell into the trick and said that I can, but I can't say that he is his life-saving benefactor (Zhao Gang), if Li Yunlong doesn't believe in his ability, you can give it a try.
Li Yunlong was waiting for this sentence, his eyebrows raised, his face was a little embarrassed, and he was just about to brag and say two cruel words, but Monk Wei slapped him and slapped him directly.
This is the first time Li Yunlong pretended to fail in the play, and the second time Master Li bragged in front of the whole group.
"I, Li Yunlong, practiced martial arts at the age of 8, I knew a little about the south boat and the north legs, and when I was 14 years old, the stones on the grain field, I stood up at once, look at this head, is it practiced with stones. ”
As soon as the words fell, he was lifted up and thrown by his subordinate Zhang Dabiao.
Poor, weak, and helpless.........
In fact, this scene doesn't require much acting skills, just now Zuo Le pulled Zhou Song to talk about the play, and he was talking more about the role of Monk Wei itself.
There are many highlights of "Bright Sword", as well as many big scenes of war, and Zuo Le, the director, is very busy and has no time to analyze the roles one-on-one with the actors.
I can only pick some times when I am not busy, and take advantage of the gap between the drama to talk more with the actors.
Especially for actors like Zhou Song, whose acting conditions are not very good, Zuo Le needs to mention it more, so that they can think more and practice more often, and try their roles as thoroughly as possible.
After filming Li Yunlong subdued Monk Wei, today's filming ended early, Zuo Le did not delay much, and took a few assistant directors to a gently sloping open space more than ten miles away.
More than a dozen long trenches have been dug on them, on which sandbags, ammunition boxes, etc., are covered with gray and black cannon marks, bullet holes and blood stains, and there are scattered piles of wood that have not yet been lit.
When it was time for the official shooting, the wooden pile was lit, the black smoke was filled, coupled with the fire of guns and cannons, and the shouts of soldiers, it was a qualified "military battlefield".
Zuo Le chatted with the person who arranged the scene, and then took someone to personally check the explosion point, and explained to the assistant director, wait until the actor arrives at the scene tomorrow, and let people take it a few more times.
Although the power of explosive powder used in film and television is limited, it is not a joke to blow up people.
Every year, there are several cases of filming being killed and injured in the circle, and the outside world doesn't know that it was the crew that suppressed the news, but Zuo Le and other insiders know it.
Therefore, Zuo Le is extremely cautious in this regard, in order to be foolproof, the budget of the "Bright Sword" crew in terms of blasting has increased by 30%, all of which is used to eliminate potential safety hazards and minimize the probability of accidents.
After turning around, after seeing that all aspects were well arranged, Zuo Le returned satisfied, and in the next few days, he was going to shoot the scene of "Independent Regiment vs. Yamazaki Brigade" here, and he had to recuperate.
