Chapter 288: Something Happened
The crew that claims to invest 200 million yuan is really huge, and He Xin, who has been tossing in low-cost literary films, is really eye-opening.
For example, in the shooting scenes, Director Chen followed his usual generosity, such as spending a lot of money in Hengdian to build the main scene in the film, Wangcheng, and the scenes of Beijing Film Studio, Shangri-La and other places were built at the same time.
Originally, it was planned to officially start shooting in Hengdian on March 1, but due to the delay in the construction period of Hengdian Wangcheng, Chen Dadao had to announce that the start would be delayed for half a month after losing his temper, and at the same time, after starting the film, he would shoot the scenes in the studio of Beijing Film Studio.
This sudden change is a problem for He Xin. As the big match in this film, most of his scenes are concentrated in the studio of Beijing Film Studio and Shangri-La, and there are not many scenes in Hengdian Wangcheng.
As a result, the postponement to March 15 made his shooting task very heavy. Because the snow country scenes built in the studio of Beijing Film Studio are mainly his rivalry with Xie Qiwang and Zhang Dongjian.
And more importantly, the one starring him and Shu Qi will be released on March 24. According to the original plan, during the more than a month of filming in Hengdian Wangcheng, his shooting task was very easy and did not affect the publicity of the release, but now there is a serious conflict between the two.
According to the publicity process previously drawn up with PropNex, He Xin will be responsible for the publicity tasks of the big box offices in Beijing, Shanghai and Xi'an, and will also have to attend the local premiere. In the south, such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen, Shu Qi is in charge of publicity.
But now the problem comes, as for how to coordinate, there is naturally his agent Sister Hong and the crew to coordinate, as for Director Chen's main focus on the filming and artistic creation of the film, this kind of cumbersome affairs are all handed over to Mrs. Chen.
At the same time, as an Asian blockbuster, this time it also borrowed from the consistent practices of European and American commercial films in terms of commercial operations, such as shooting documentaries of the same period.
Although the film has not yet started, the preparatory work has already begun to incorporate footage from the documentary of the same period.
Today, when He Xin and Director Chen were discussing the script and characters, there were staff members carrying machines to shoot on the side.
“...... The character of the ghost wolf is distinct, and the heart is complex, the reason why we want to design such an exaggerated and very stage drama appearance is to form a strong contrast with his character, and to give this character a special temperament!"
Chen Dadao's tone of speech is subdued and frustrated, often accompanied by rich body movements, and when it comes to the end of the fun, he is often like a great man, stretching out his big hand as if smoothing a wave of wrinkled water, and waving slowly and forcefully in front of him, which is very stylish!
"You may think that the ghost wolf is a tragic character, but I say that he is not, although he has the dramatic elements of a tragic character, but on a deeper level, he is a comedic ending. He truly transcended his one-sided outlook on life, timidity and cowardice, and obtained inner compensation and happiness, and when he took off the prison clothes that kept him alive but imprisoned his soul and freedom, he instantly became a dazzling fluorescent and sparkling! Although his body left the world, he kept the most timely regret, and he finally realized that something was far more important than the life that simply lost himself! So, while I was saddened by his departure, I also watched with a relieved smile as his soul flew into the beautiful heaven......"
Director Chen's words have always been very literary, and it seems that his profound literary skills are demonstrated all the time. These are really obscure for a scumbag with a very poor foundation many times.
Especially when he saw that after he finished his tirade, his burly body leaned back on the sofa, put his hands on the armrests, and looked at himself with an expression of "I am very optimistic about you" and "I think you should be honored to play this role", He Xin was really speechless.
He admits that the other party has a deep literary foundation, and he also has a unique and personal style of view in aesthetics, but after getting the script, he has already read it several times, although the character of the ghost wolf is compared with several main characters, the focus is on the inner drama is very rich, and there is a lot of room for performance.
However, in his opinion, compared with the fierce contradictions and conflicts between Lan Yu and Zhong Situ, the tense character image is still slightly inferior, and he even feels that he doesn't even need to sacrifice the killer feature of "no eating and no sleeping", and he is sure to play this role well.
It's just that there is a machine filming at the scene, and he can only pretend to be humble and thoughtful. In fact, it is said to be a documentary of the same period, and most of the time this is also a kind of performance, after all, this is for the promotion of future films, and there can be no negative things.
He Xin was humbly asking for advice at this time, but the mobile phone vibrated in his trouser pocket, and he was not easy to answer the phone because of what Director Chen said before.
After a few contacts, he also saw that this grandfather always looked like a corporal of Lixian, but in fact, he was very arrogant in his heart. It's probably the kind of person who calls him a master, and then he thinks of himself as a master.
However, maybe it is the relationship between family and education or his own cultivation, what he shows is not like the nouveau riche style of a certain two-person actor in the Northeast in later generations, on the contrary, he is always polite, it cannot be said to be hypocritical, at least his eyes always reveal a trace of sincerity, but this sincerity is a kind of condescending sincerity, a kind of sincerity that needs to be looked up, which makes people's hearts feel a little bit.
At first, when the phone started vibrating, he didn't take it seriously. Usually when filming, he usually adjusts the vibration or mute of his mobile phone, and waits for a glance between filming to dial it back.
And his phone number is not widely spread, that is, a few friends and some collaborators at work, everyone also knows his habit, generally no one answers to know that he is working at this time, so he will no longer bother, and wait until he is busy and then call.
But today is different, the mobile phone vibrates one after another, he estimated that there must be something urgent, and finally waited until the end of this tirade, while the master bowed his head to drink tea, he hurriedly said: "Director, I'll answer the phone first?"
"Oh, it's okay, you're busy!" said the master, putting down his teacup, and raising his buttocks, as politely as usual.
He Xin smiled at him apologetically, and at the same time said hello to several buddies who were filming documentaries, and hurriedly walked to the door, just as he took out his mobile phone and was about to watch it, he happened to meet Chen Hong who came over and was about to enter the door.
"Sister Hong!" He Xin greeted her as usual.
Chen Hong stared at him uncharacteristically for a while before pursing his lips and smiling: "Xiaohe, you have a good eye!"
What's a good eye?
He Xin was a little inexplicable, but out of politeness, he still smirked at her twice. After watching people pass by with a weird smile, he looked down at his phone.
There were five missed calls in a row, except for one Sun Li's, the other four were actually Chang Jihong, and then there were two text messages, one was actually Zhouxun, take a look.
"You broke up too???"
What the hell is this, did it go wrong?
He muttered in his heart, and continued to look through the next one, but it was still his agent Chang Ji's red-haired: "Something is wrong, hurry up and call back!"
No wonder he made four calls in a row, and his heart suddenly tightened, and he quickly dialed the phone.
There was a ring, and the phone was connected.
"Sister Hong, what's ...... up?"
Before he could finish speaking, he listened to Sister Hong on the other end of the phone and asked, "Where did you sleep last night?"
"Sleep at home!" he subconsciously said.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, where can I sleep if I don't sleep in my own house?" No, Sister Hong, you said something big, what happened?" he quickly asked.
"You ask me, what else do I want to ask you? Yesterday you went to visit with Sun Li, what did you both do?" Obviously, Sister Hong on the other end of the phone was very angry.
Yesterday, I went to the place where they were filming, said hello to Director Teng and Brother Yi Ming, and went to a café with Sun Li to sit for a while, and then sent her home. He Xin was confused.
"And after that?"
"After that, I went home, and I didn't dare to go back too late, and the skewers were still at home. What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? The photo of you and Sun Li together last night was secretly taken, and now the Internet is full of scandals between you and Sun Li!"
"How so, isn't it?"
He Xin thought about it, he and Sun Li didn't have anything out of the ordinary yesterday, even if it was taken secretly, the photo should be nothing. Besides, it is not that similar things have happened before, for example, last time he and Li Xiaoran were also secretly photographed, and the scandal between them was fabricated on the Internet, he didn't bother to respond, it was fake at first glance.
"Why not? You find a computer for yourself and take a good look at it, I told you not to make any trouble, but you ...... Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you, you'll know when you see it. Hurry up, hurry up and come over when you're done. ”
Listening to Sister Hong's tone on the phone, it seemed to be quite serious, and after He Xin hung up the phone, he carefully recalled the situation with Sun Li yesterday, and really couldn't think of anything wrong, let alone a polite hug, not even holding hands.
Thinking about the time when they were filmed, the two sometimes went out for a stroll in Yunnan occasionally, but Sun Li liked to hold his arm from time to time. At first, he didn't think in any other direction, he just regarded her as a little sister. It wasn't until later that he realized that something was wrong, and he avoided this slightly intimate action, so as not to cause the other party to cause an illusion and misunderstanding.
But he didn't bother to think about it, and hurried to find the computer.
Pushing open the door of an office next to him, there was a girl with glasses sitting inside, and when she saw him enter the door, her eyes lit up instantly, and she hurriedly asked, "Brother Xin, is there something wrong?"
He Xin has been in and out of Director Chen's studio frequently during this time, and the staff of the studio are quite familiar with him.
"Does your computer here have Internet access?" He Xin asked, pointing to the computer on his desk.
"Yes. ”
The girl gave an affirmative answer, and then asked, "New brother, do you want to use a computer?"
"Sorry to interrupt your work, I'll be soon. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, new brother, you can use it. ”
The girl said, using the mouse to operate on the computer a few times, then gave up her seat and deliberately walked to the back of the monitor.
He Xin smiled at her and thanked her, and quickly sat down to check the news on the Internet.
Director Chen's studio is connected to broadband, and the speed is fast, so he found a commonly used portal and clicked on the entertainment channel.
As soon as the webpage was displayed, I saw several large pictures on the front page of the headline pop up at once, and there was a line of eye-catching headlines at the bottom: He Xin Sun Li Cafe has a sweet date, it is suspected that he has lived together, and his relationship with Cheng Hao may have already changed!
"it!"
Seeing this title, he was full of excitement, and subconsciously burst into a foul mouth. I didn't care about the glasses girl standing opposite with a very surprised and gossipy gaze, and hurriedly looked at a few pictures.
The top one, as soon as you look at the background, you know that it was secretly photographed in a café, but the strange thing is that the two people in the picture are obviously intertwined with their hands on the table, and more importantly, one is full of smiles, and the other clear-eyed person knows that he is coquettish at a glance.
"Phew!"
He suddenly felt a cool air rush up his spine from his tail vertebrae. He remembered that this was the time when they were rushing to pay, and Sun Li pressed his hand and wallet on the table. But because the lights in the café are dim, and the flash is obviously not turned on when taking such a photo, the picture looks hazy, and his black wallet and black desktop are completely integrated because of this haze, and it looks as if the hands of the two are intimately pinched together.
The last few photos are clearer, the two of them talked and laughed and went out and got into the car together, and the last one was a photo of him saying goodbye downstairs in Sun Li's rented apartment, but because of the angle, it looked like the two of them entered the door together.
He Xin realized that the two of them had been followed by reporters from beginning to end yesterday, and at the same time, an inexplicable anger surged up all of a sudden.
Since it was a stalk, the person who took the photo must have seen him turn around and get into the car after sending Sun Li to the door, and then drive away.
Obviously, this is purely fake news concocted to attract attention and achieve a shocking effect.
He didn't think much about it at this time, and he even forgot to thank the glasses girl, and after closing the web page, he hurriedly ran out.
"Director, I'm really sorry, I'm in a bit of a hurry, I have to go back quickly. ”
The buddies who filmed the documentary of the same period in the conference room have withdrawn, leaving only Chen Dadao and his wife.
"Oh, it's okay, you're busy!"
The husband and wife stood up together, and Director Chen was even more likely to move to see each other off.
"Director, stay!"
He Xinyi waved his hand, and he didn't care about being polite to Chen Dadao, so he left without waiting for a response.
In the conference room, the couple smiled and looked at each other.
"I didn't expect this kid to look quite honest, and he actually has this hand. ”
may only be when the husband and wife are alone, Chen Dadao will show his true temperament.
Mrs. Chen glanced at him and said, "It's not like you, it's all eating from the bowl and looking at the pot!"
"Tsk, why did it happen to me again!" Director Chen was embarrassed and inevitably a little unhappy.
Fortunately, Mrs. Chen's point-and-click method is very skillful, and she did not hold on to it, but took the initiative to divert the topic and said: "Anyway, the news he broke out now is also a good thing for our play." ”
