Chapter 304: Your Name Is Charlotte (Two in One)
Quancheng, an old alley corner
The alleyway street dozens of meters away from the dead end was jammed with nearby residents, sticking their heads out to cast curious and excited glances at the dead corner.
Several staff members wearing vests and baseball caps and several policemen sweating profusely blocked the entrance of the alley, struggling to maintain order.
The cold wind in October blew whirring, but it did not dampen everyone's enthusiasm, and they waited for this day for a long time.
About the day before yesterday, nearby residents found that a group of strangers had taken the dead corner of this old alley, knocking and beating in it, moving old things and moving new things, and the work was in full swing.
Someone was curious and asked in the past, but the other party didn't hide it, saying that it was the crew filming and using this alley corner set to greet the relevant units and obtain permission to shoot.
Everyone is not interested in whether the crew is filming legally or not, anyway, it is a dead end, and no one usually comes, so it has nothing to do with everyone's interests.
What everyone really cares about is what the crew is filming, and whether they can see the stars.
It's a pity that the crew is very strict, and in the face of inquiries from nearby residents and good deeds, they have not let go.
Until this afternoon, several business and vans were parked at the entrance of the alley.
First, a group of people set up the camera and related shooting equipment, and when the equipment was almost the same, a few people who were very familiar appeared.
The appearance of these people also immediately detonated the psychology of onlookers.
Soon, several photos were posted to the circle of friends, and a message spread quickly near the alley.
[Zuo Lelai is filming, as well as Yan Ni and Li Fanda, come if you want to see a star]
.........
As an entertainment boss in Dongshan, in the base camp of mountains and rivers in Quancheng, anyone who understands entertainment gossip will not know who Zuo Le is.
Even some people who don't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, there are many people who know Zuo Le.
It is no exaggeration to say that Zuo Le's influence in Dongshan Province, especially in Quancheng, is no less than that of a top director like Zhang Kaigang who has presided over major national projects.
In addition, Zuo Le himself is a child of Dongshan, and there are a series of popular drama roles, as well as his close relationship with Dongshantai, which makes the people of Dongshan have a good impression of him.
I can't talk about my hometown idol, but I'm also a local celebrity with excellent reviews.
So, the rest is pretty straightforward.
Watching live filming and seeing stars with your own eyes is still very tempting for most people, not to mention Zuo Le, who is very popular in Dongshan.
After the news came out, countless people who ate melons immediately came over to watch the excitement in the cold wind.
Zuo Le, who was filming, immediately made a decision, sent some people over to stop him, and contacted the nearby police station to come over to help prevent accidents.
This is the experience accumulated in the previous filming of "Magic Mobile", and the last time it was a little rushed, this time it is much more calm.
Then, he personally came forward to explain, persuaded everyone not to delay the shooting, and promised that after the shooting, he, Shen Teng, and Yan Ni would take half an hour to take a photo and sign autographs with everyone.
The onlookers also gave face to the "Dongshan Zuo Boss", and they all honestly watched the excitement, and no one made trouble.
The crew of "Charlotte's Troubles" was also able to shoot smoothly.
.........
Today's scene is the plot of Xia Luo being beaten by the gangsters invited by Yuan Hua, and it is also one of the famous scenes in the movie.
For this scene, Zuo Le also took a little effort, mainly the gangster leader Chen Kai, the appearance of the original Chen Kai's role can be called "amazing", and Zuo Le also wants to copy it.
So I searched very carefully, but I didn't find a suitable one, and in the end, Shen Teng recommended one to him.
was originally a sad tofu brain actor, surnamed Liu Mingqian, a bald fat man, and his appearance was described in four words - hideous and ugly.
However, I still felt that the deterrent effect was not enough, so I made makeup for Liu Qian according to the original movie.
The eyebrows are chopped, leaving two high raised eyebrow mounds, a long oval oblique scar on the forehead, which is densely covered with thread marks left after the stitches are removed, the nose and upper lip are a fleshy hole, countless freckles on the face, yellow and black teeth are interlaced, and he is wearing an earthy red suit, which is half cut in the shirt, revealing a fat round belly.
With this image, children under the age of 12 can be directly scared to cry, and fools can see that they are not good people, and if they clean up a little, they can directly play aliens or zombies.
Zuo Le looked at Liu Gan, who had finished putting on makeup, nodded with satisfaction, and then suddenly felt that this image was a little familiar.
Isn't this the perverted salty and wet idiot of Dongying H Man......
Belch~
Zuo Le suddenly began to doubt the original intention of the original screenwriter and director, and he was also a little hesitant.
If he is recognized by some sharp-eyed people, will it damage his image of integrity and purity?
Zuo Le was still thinking, and Liu Gan over there looked in the mirror and saw his new image, not only did he not have the slightest disgust and resistance, but he was excited.
For actors, especially those who are not well-known, the crew is very far away from them, and most of the roles they can play are supporting roles.
But the supporting roles are also good and bad.
This good or bad does not mean that the character is a decent villain, but whether the character attributes are distinctive.
Some supporting roles are not weaker than ordinary leading actors, but due to the mediocre positioning of the role roles, most of them are tool people and background boards, the actors have limited play, and the fame bonus brought by the fact is also very low.
And some supporting roles, even if they only have a few scenes, are very easy to shine because of their distinctive characteristics, and sometimes they can even steal the limelight from the protagonist.
For most actors who want to be on top, they prefer to choose the latter.
Such a role will make others remember them as much as possible, and if people remember, it means that the day of emergence is not far away.
Although Liu Gan is not very happy, he is also an old actor in the circle, and he still has vision.
As soon as he saw the image of "Chen Kai" he played, he knew the value of this role.
Liu Qian even felt that he had been opened up by Zuo Le, and he originally relied on harlequin villains to make a living.
But it's not easy either, and it's highly competitive.
Liu Gan has never made any names, and now it seems that his own imagination is not rich enough, so he has no cruelty to spoil himself.
Now looking in the mirror and reading the new image designed for him by Zuo Le, the more Liu Qian looks at himself, the more he feels that the future is bright.
What is the evil in the south and the evil in the north, ugly in the east and strange in the west, the four villains in Hengdian, and the eight villains in Xiangshan, they all have to be my younger brother Liu Gan in the future.........
.........
Before Liu Gan's dream of the villain king was finished, he was awakened by Shen Teng's kick.
"What are you doing in a daze, have you memorized all the words? Don't drop the chain for me while filming. β
As an all-round talent of "director, writer and actor", Shen Teng has always been accustomed to taking behind-the-scenes positions when filming in the mountains and rivers crew, most of them are assistant directors, and this time "Charlotte's Troubles" is no exception.
However, because he is the first male lead and the shooting task is heavy, this assistant director is relatively more like a nominal name and rarely interferes in the crew arrangement.
However, because today it was a small drama, there were not many crew members here, and some people had to be assigned to maintain order outside, so Deputy Director Shen re-took office to help Zuo Le deal with some chores.
He was busy working, when he saw Liu Gan smirking here, and hurriedly came over to remind him.
Liu Qian was recommended to Zuo Le by him, and if something went wrong, he would have no face to follow.
"Don't worry, Brother Teng, I have memorized the lines for a long time, and if something goes wrong, you can pick my skin. β
Liu Qian was very grateful to Shen Teng and knew that the other party was pulling him, so he was not lying.
Whether it is for his own future or for Shen Teng's favor, he has to go all out.
Shen Teng saw the solemnity on Liu Gan's face, nodded with satisfaction, patted his fat shoulder, and encouraged,
"Do a good job, this opportunity is rare, if it is remembered by our chairman, you kid will send it." β
"Uh-huh. β
Liu Gan's eyes lit up and he nodded fiercely.
The two didn't say much for long, the filming preparations here had been arranged, and a few actors were allowed to go down, and after the right words, they were ready to officially start filming.
ββββ
Shen Teng's Xia Luo was lying on the ground in a school uniform, the camera slowly moved up, five or six had strange hairstyles, and the little gangsters wearing strange shapes were in a semicircle to surround him in the corner.
Chen Kai, played by Liu Gan, shrugged his shoulders and stood in the middle of the gangsters with a cruel smile, his voice trembling slightly with arrogance.
"Your name is Charlotte. β
Xia Luo staggered to his feet, Chen Kai took a step forward, and pushed Xia Luo again, forcing him to the foot of the wall.
"You're pretty crazy, huh?"
Charlotte shrunk her shoulders, her face was a little cowardly, and she looked at the few thugs around her, stiff and stubborn.
"I'll tell you, don't bully me, I'll jump over the building, my head won't be good. β
Chen Kai glared at Xia Luo, stretched out his head, and slapped his bald head twice, with a look of disdain.
"Who are you scaring TM, it's like TM is heading. β
The little gangster next to him followed up with a line, pointed at Xia Luo and threatened: "Don't be crazy, boy, you don't inquire about this piece, who doesn't know my eldest brother Chen Kai." β
It may be that Chen Kai's appearance is too shocking, and Xia Luo's body is leaning against the wall and shrinking into a ball, and he greets cautiously.
"Chen... Brother Chen Kai. β
Uh, is the original screenwriter here alluding to a certain great director......
The more instigated Xia Luo became, the more arrogant Chen Kai became, stepped forward to threaten Xia Luo to stay away from Qiu Ya, said it up, stepped forward and kicked it hard, then took off his shoes, and beat Xia Luo with the soles of his shoes.
Liu Gan and Shen Teng are old acquaintances, and they have been set before, in order to be as realistic as possible, when Liu Gan started it, he used a little bit of real power, and the effect was quite good.
Zuo Le looked very satisfied, Liu Gan not only has a good image, but his acting skills are also above the level.
In addition, he and Shen Teng are old friends, and the two have a certain tacit understanding, and they know each other's proportions in playing, which looks comfortable and smooth.
Zuo Le felt that the one just now could be passed over again, but for the sake of insurance, he added another one.
The two still didn't show any ng, and they took it off smoothly for the second time.
Then Ma Dongmei, played by Yan Ni, appeared and came to the rescue of Charlotte with a javelin.
Xia Luo was startled, and kept praising her, but she was actually afraid of affecting Ma Dongmei, but the young and innocent Ma Dongmei didn't understand Xia Luo's intentions and didn't leave.
So, what Xia Luo was worried about happened, Chen Kai fell in love with Ma Dongmei, flirted with his eyes, and partnered with the gangsters with bad intentions.
In order to protect Ma Dongmei, Xia Luo no longer made a false mistake, stepped forward, gave Chen Kai a brick, and then was blocked and beaten by the gangsters.
In fact, the biggest role of this scene is to pave the relationship between Xia and Ma.
Ma Dongmei came to the rescue alone in the tiger's den for Xia Luo, although Xia Luo hated it, but she still thought about Ma Dongmei in her heart, and at the critical moment, she could leave behind the cowardice in her heart to save people.
In addition, there are two key points, one is to use Chen Kai's gang to lead to the plot of Ma Dongmei saving Xia Luo later, and the second is to "whitewash" Teacher Wang played by Zuo Le.
.........
The movie "Charlotte's Troubles", regardless of the quality, but the plot is quite complete.
At the same time, as a comedy movie, the burden is particularly dense, there must be a joke or stalk in two or three minutes on average, and the plot characters are also very distinctive.
Among them, Mr. Wang, played by Zuo Le, is a more outstanding role.
This teacher Wang is not a good teacher in the general sense, and he has a lot of shortcomings.
Greedy for money, he likes to receive things from his classmates, and from time to time he likes to find something to knock on something.
Speaking harshly, often stabbing classmates in the heart, many times, almost directly damaging the dignity of students.
Praise the high and step on the low, the spring breeze for good students or big gifts, and the various unhappiness for bad students or not giving him gifts.
Loving vanity, after Charlotte became famous, she boasted about herself and took the credit for her success on herself.
is such a teacher, and he is not without a bottom line, judging from the many details of the movie, he still pays attention to students' learning.
And, save Charlotte, who has a grudge against herself, from the gangsters, and have the kung fu not to beat the students......
For this plot, Zuo Le learned in the original barrage that this was done to pass the trial.
But he thinks it's good to change it this way, and the role of Mr. Wang has become much plump and three-dimensional from the villain harlequin in the early stage.
In fact, to put it bluntly, Mr. Wang is a very down-to-earth citizen, usually slippery accidents, and there is no ambiguity at critical moments, which is also what most ordinary people look like.
With this change, this character has a pyrotechnic atmosphere.
Zuo Le likes Teacher Wang very much, so he arranged this role for himself, which can be regarded as a fake public help.
Mr. Wang's section is mainly divided into two parts, the first part is riding a bicycle past the alley, trying to stop and block, being scolded by the gangsters, and then dragonflies and water, silky bicycle left.
Here is the desire to promote and suppress, the audience was happy when they saw this, and then they were full of disdain for Teacher Wang.
As a result, Mr. Wang immediately returned heroically, clicked a handsome Wing Chun, knocked down all the gangsters, and successfully "whitewashed".
Zuo Le also got a fight scene because of this, and specially learned the routines of Wing Chun with Wu Jing.
Thanks to the blessing of that Zhen bullet, the most familiar boxing method for Chinese audiences now, except for Tai Chi, belongs to this set of Wing Chun, and everyone immediately understands it as soon as it shines on the moves.
Zuo Le's practice is good, and this fight scene is relatively not too difficult, and it took more than half an hour to shoot.
Then in the face of Xia Luo Why did the two fight at the beginning, why didn't Mr. Wang use kung fu to fight back, Zuo Le's face was righteous and awe-inspiring, and he was loud
β I am teacherγ β
What is a People's Teacher (Tactical Backwards)
With Zuo Le riding a girder bicycle, tripping over a brick, his butt was bumped, and the shot was gradually moving away, today's shooting task is basically completed.
The general shots have been filmed, and I will come over tomorrow to make up some fragments, and then I can transfer to shoot other plots.
Zuo Le was in a good mood, he thought that he would have to delay for two or three days, but the progress was so smooth that he saved a lot of time.
Director Zuo was in a good mood, and everyone also enjoyed the happiness, and the half-hour signing time that was originally promised to the onlookers became an hour, and the alley was suddenly full of joy.
