Chapter 300: People are scary, scared to death
In Director Chen's crew, He Xin's biggest feeling is that the living treatment is very good, for example, the protagonist's food includes beef and hard dishes such as white-cut chicken. I heard from the life producer that it can even be ordered, if it is not lobster, geoduck and the like, the crew can arrange it.
In addition, the live is not bad, the crew has chartered the VIP building of the Hengdian International Conference Center, the most luxurious in Hengdian, and each of the protagonists has a suite.
When He Xin arrived at noon, he also walked around there, the whole center covers an area of more than 1,000 acres, there are mountains and rivers, the big trees are lush, the whole is a forest park, the road inside is smooth and undulating, every morning when you get up, it is perfect to run in the morning.
And the traffic is also very convenient, on the side is the most lively Wansheng South Street in Hengdian, and it is only a few minutes away from the Qinhuang Palace.
Generally speaking, actors always have to rest for a day or two before they come to the set and adjust their condition a little before devoting themselves to filming. As soon as He Xin arrived at noon this year, Director Chen arranged a scene for him at night, no matter what the reason, he just regarded it as the director's trust in him.
He didn't go back to the hotel to rest all afternoon, and stayed on the set. In fact, if you want to talk about hard work, today Xie Qiwang is definitely hard, an afternoon is basically his play, even if he shoots the scenes of Bai Juice and Cheng Qian, he still has to sit below as a human flesh set, and there is almost no time to rest, and the scene arranged in the evening is also based on him.
But today, Xie Qiwang seems to be in good shape, and he can't sit still between shooting, jumping around on the set with a bottle of mineral water, sometimes chatting with Zhang Baiju, and occasionally jumping into the tent to laugh with Director Chen and him.
Until the evening, the scene here came to an end, He Xin was very interested, and without waiting for the director to speak, he consciously ran to the makeup studio next door to make up and prepare.
No way, who told him to play the role of the ghost wolf The makeup is the most difficult, and it takes at least two hours to put on makeup once.
Halfway through, Zhang Dongjian came.
The guy looked handsome in a white casual suit and a cap today, and he was always surrounded by three people, a translator, an agent, and an assistant.
Seeing that He Xin was already sitting inside, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he walked a few steps over to greet him: "Mr. He Xin, Ni howl!"
This product has recently improved in Chinese, at least the two characters of He Xin can be said coherently, not as stumbling as before, and there is a pause in the middle.
In fact, he only arrived a few days earlier than He Xin, and he had been promoting his new movie "Tai Chi Flag Flying" in Japan, and after coming over, he heard that he also suffered from a small cold, and he has been resting for the past two days, and this scene tonight is also his first scene after coming to Hengdian.
Previously, the crew had been focusing on filming the scenes of Xie Qiwang, Zhang Baiju and Sanada Hiroyuki.
Speaking of Sanada Hiroyuki, He Xin has never met him so far.
Because after eight days of cooperation, He Xin is the most familiar actor in the crew of Zhang Dongjian, and it can be seen that he is also very happy.
"Mr. Dongjian, I'm sorry!" He Xin pointed to his head, and the makeup artist was helping him with his hair at this time, and put on the wig for a while.
"No!
Zhang Dongjian smiled and waved his hand and sat down on the chair next to him.
"Mr. Dong Jian, I heard that you are not feeling well, are you feeling better?"
If it's a little more complicated, he won't understand it and can only communicate through an interpreter.
"Thank you Mr. He Xin for your concern, my body has been well for a long time, and I still rode a horse today!"
"Horseback riding?"
"That's right, my riding skills are not very good, and the director asked me to practice. Zhang Dongjian looked a little embarrassed.
"Where's the place to ride a horse?"
He Xin's heart moved, he can't ride a horse, but it's very difficult to be an actor who can't ride a horse, just like not being able to drive, maybe any character will ask you to ride a horse or drive, it won't work!
He has long wanted to learn to ride a horse, and there are many horse farms around the capital, he once inquired, what kind of membership system is it, and the price is not expensive, he has not been willing to give up. This time, he didn't have much of a role in Hengdian, but he could take this opportunity to get the horseback riding done.
He didn't need Zhang Dongjian to answer this question, and the translator hurriedly said: "There is a horse farm over there in the Ming and Qing Dynasty palaces, and we rode there today." β
Seeing Zhang Dongjian's confused eyes, He Xin explained with a smile: "I'm sorry, I don't know how to ride a horse, I want to learn!"
After listening to the translation, Zhang Dongjian also smiled: "It is not difficult to ride a horse, it is rare to ride well, and I still need to strengthen training in this regard." β
Think about it, people in ancient times rode horses probably like riding bicycles now, as long as there were horses, most people would ride, but if you want to imagine a cavalry galloping and sprinting, I'm afraid there are still a few people who can do it.
The two chatted with each other while putting on makeup, and their makeup was more cumbersome, compared to He Xin's face with pale oil paint and smoky makeup, and mottled scars on the side.
Zhang Dongjian had to paint not only his face, but also his arms and neck, and his face should be as rough as possible in order to conform to his image as a slave who was exposed to the sun and rain all year round. And his beggar red beggar costume is quite cumbersome to wear, don't look at his beggar costume in tatters, in fact, it is the same as the feather big feather on He Xin's own body, which is custom-made in Japan, and it is said that it costs tens of thousands of yuan a piece.
About 99% is the design fee, and the material processing cost is estimated to be less than 1%.
It wasn't until the two of them were about to finish their work that they saw Xie forcing Wang Shanshan to be late. But he is also simple, Duke Wuhuan of the North was originally a white-faced student, and his clothes were also very simple in a white robe.
However, there is one thing He Xin doesn't understand, "Wuji" is obviously a costume mythological blockbuster, since it is an ancient costume, why is Wuhuan a short hair style?
It's still the signature middle of King Xie Qi, and then a few strands of hair are deliberately curled out in front of it, which looks cool. The only difference was probably a small slender braid behind his left ear.
The evening scene was arranged to be filmed in the side hall next to the Four Seas Return to One Hall.
The side hall was empty, and the golden chair of King Xie was placed in the center during the day, and a raging fire was burning in the big ding next to it.
With Chen Dadao's voice:
βActionοΌβ
I saw He Xin's neck shrinking, his shoulders tucked forward, his back arched, and his head leaned forward slightly, and his height of about 1.83 meters was instantly as tall as Xie Qiwang, who was at least ten centimeters shorter than him.
As the slave of Duke Wuhuan of the North, he bent over forever in front of King Xie Qiu, lowered his head, and had to roll his eyes up vigorously when he looked at the other party.
This scene is about him coming back to ask Wu Huan for his guilt, and he didn't succeed in assassinating the general Guangming, but only stabbed the other party, and at the same time told Wu Huan that King Wuhuan was not killed by Guangming, but a slave under him.
The main task of this scene for him is to play a scene, as long as he finishes his lines, he will act as a human background by Xie Qiwang's side, at most, he will reflect some inner drama through his eyes.
And for Xie Qiwang, tonight's scene is undoubtedly a highlight, not only does he have to take turns to face the rivalry with He Xin and Zhang Dongjian, but he also has to sing a one-man show, and finally kill the six guards around him.
The ghost wolf played by He Xin, the only difficulty is probably that the ghost wolf will always be a facial paralysis in front of Wu Huan, whether it is fear or sadness, all his hearts must be expressed through his eyes, which requires his eyes to have a sense of hierarchy, so that those who watch can read his mood fluctuations at this time through his eyes.
However, the performance in which he reported to King Xie and pleaded guilty was no pressure on him. After all, facial paralysis, the routine operation of the little fresh meat in later generations is at most at the critical moment when the lines are spoken, the eyes are a little flickering, and the meaning of panic is all alive.
After he finished his lines, the camera shifted to King Xie Qi, and saw him sitting on a golden chair, with one foot still on it, pulling out the knife hidden in the armrest, wiping the shining blade with a piece of white silk, looking very hanging, and said, "You mean that the general Guangming gently deceived me with a piece of armor?"
As he spoke, he pretended to look casual and glanced at He Xin, and just as he wanted to open his mouth to continue to say his lines, he heard a voice from the side: "Card!"
"Nicholas, you're not right, do it again!"
Xie Qiwang had a very good attitude, and hurriedly raised his hand and said, "I'm sorry, director!"
At the same time, he smiled at He Xin, who was standing opposite, to apologize.
Resume.
After He Xin finished his lines, King Xie still pretended to be forced in a very conventional way, and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner: "You mean that General Guangming gently deceived me with a piece of armor?"
This time, he didn't look at it, but continued to wipe the knife, and said, "The one who pretended to be him was a slave......
"Cards!"
"Nicholas, don't be too monotonous, add something else. β
"OK, Director!"
"Do it all over again!"
......
"Card, no!"
......
"Cards!"
......
"Card ......"
Yes, after six or seven NGs in a row, Xie Qiwang's performance could not satisfy Director Chen. He Xin can only accompany him over and over again, not including Zhang Dongjian, who is still waiting outside.
Chen Dadao couldn't see it, so he had to say: "Nicholas, come here!"
It can be seen that the continuous NG made Xie Qiwang's mood also very low, he really didn't understand what his problem was, so he walked over slowly, and He Xin naturally followed, after all, this is a play between two people.
"Nicholas, it's right that you don't look at He Xin when you speak. Even though you are angry in your heart, the more you have to show that you don't care, but verbally you don't care, and your inner anger has to be expressed through your eyes and body language, so that the audience can understand, OK......?
Director Chen is worthy of being an American citizen (I don't know if it's true), and when it comes to excitement, he often mixes a few foreign languages.
He Xin, who was standing on the side, saw an interesting scene at this time, and let Director Chen take the script and point at it, foaming at the mouth, accompanied by rich body language. But Xie Qiwang kept his head down, his eyes didn't communicate with the director at all, at most he nodded, until Director Chen finished speaking, he didn't look up at the director's eyes, but said lightly: "I'll try!"
When he was done, he turned and left.
He Xin was stunned for a moment when he saw this scene, and said secretly: Could it be that this product finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to dare to play a big name in front of Director Chen?
However, Director Chen's reaction was also very strange, and he actually looked at the back of King Xie leaving in a daze, looking at a loss.
At first, He Xin thought that Chen Dadao was angry, and was about to step forward to say a reassuring word, when he suddenly saw that he suddenly seemed to shiver, his burly body trembled, and then his eyes looked around in horror.
"Director, what's wrong?"
"Uh, that's weird!"
Director Chen muttered: "When I was filming "Fengyue", Leslie Cheung was like this, no matter what I said, he only said one sentence, I know, and then turned to leave. Nicholas was exactly like him just now, and I suddenly had a very strange feeling......"
He Xin was terrified when he listened to it, his spine was cold, and he hurriedly said: "Director, don't say it!"
People are scary, they will scare people to death!
What time is it today?
It seems that the Qingming Festival has not passed for a few days!
