Chapter 253: It's important to put yourself in the right position
As the saying goes: beauty is in the bones, not in the skin.
Some women look at it and think it is very beautiful, and even makes people feel "how can there be such a beautiful woman", but after looking at it for a long time, they find that it is nothing more than that, such as Qing Gege's.
There are also women who don't seem to be very good-looking at first, but the more they look at it, the more they taste, and even as they get older, they exude that charming style more and more, and Shu Qi probably belongs to the latter.
Speaking of which, it was the first time He Xin and Shu Qi sat at the same table for breakfast today, and Shu Qi promised to invite He Xin to dinner, because there were always paparazzi around, and it has not been fulfilled.
Just seeing that there was only a little vegetable salad on the plate in front of Shu Qi, a boiled egg and a small slice of bread, He Xin couldn't help but sigh "The actress is really hard these days!".
He has also worked with many well-known actresses before, such as Zhang Ziyi and Li Bingbing, who look okay on the screen, but in real life, they are all as thin as chickens, and they usually eat very little.
Shu Qi is obviously the same, but her skeleton is larger than the first two, which makes it look a little more normal.
Probably the only exception is Zhou Xun, I have to reiterate again that Brother Xun was born with this bowl of rice, not only is he very talented in acting, but also very delicious, and he is not fat. It's really jealous of all actresses in the world!
But today He Xin still reminded: "You eat more, today is all heavy physical work." ”
According to the proposed filming schedule, today is mainly to shoot scenes of the intellectuals working, such as Shu Qi's Fifth Regiment and Second Company cutting trees in the rainforest, and He Xin's Seventh Regiment and Fifth Company are responsible for road repairs and so on.
Especially in this 378-degree weather, even if you are just pretending, you will be tired and prostrate every time, not to mention that Lu Yue is a director who pays great attention to details, requiring actors to be as realistic as possible, such as logging, which really requires you to pick up an axe and chop wood one by one.
Thinking of the experience of the previous cameo, probably detail control is a common problem for all directors who are photographers.
Shu Qi looked enviously at the oily fried noodles, poached eggs, and two pieces of fried golden salt-fried pork on He Xin's plate, and sighed: "I want to eat it too, but I'm fat as soon as I eat it." No way, as an actress, if you really get fat, it feels like a crime. ”
It was the first time He Xin heard this kind of statement, picked up the fried noodles on the plate, and said with a smile: "Hearing you say this, I don't dare to eat it, for fear that I will also commit a crime." ”
"Ah, it's not that serious! I'm just making an analogy, in fact, you are in very good shape now, including Xiangwu Bing and Chengchuang, you professionally trained actors are different in the end, you can see that you have all made full preparations before, I can't, and I can't even memorize the lines now. Shu Qi said.
"But we all think you're doing a very good job! Yesterday they told me privately that they didn't expect you, a big star in Hong Kong, to play the Educated Youth Club so well, which made them a little unimaginable!"
"Thank you for your encouragement!" Shu Qi smiled happily.
When she was smiling, He Xin suddenly found an interesting phenomenon, that is, whenever Shu Qi pursed her lips and smiled, she was often polite or smirked, but when she really smiled, her lower lip would grin wide, showing the lower row of teeth and even the gums could be clearly seen. Although this kind of laughter infinitely magnifies the characteristics or shortcomings of her big mouth, it also adds a bit of truth and playfulness to her.
The two were talking and laughing while eating breakfast, when they saw Shu Qi's assistant coming over with a big bag like a noodle bag, this Bao Hexin had seen before, which was divided into several grids, like a treasure chest, almost everything.
After Shu Qi's agent James settled Shu Qi's life and some work matters here, he had left the crew two days ago, and the assistant played the role of a nanny on the set many times.
Just like Shu Qi now, she doesn't even have to go upstairs to clean up after breakfast, all of them are taken care of by an assistant, and you can get in the car and go to the set directly after a while.
Her assistant said hello to the two of them, quickly went to get some food and sat down, and while eating, she was still communicating with Shu Qi in Cantonese.
has cooperated a lot with Hong Kong actors, and at first He Xin was a little disgusted with this kind of sitting next to him but saying things he didn't understand. Thinking about when I was filming, I often got together with Sun Li and spoke Shanghainese that others couldn't understand, so it's no wonder that others would spread the small words of the two in private.
Shu Qi looked obviously surprised after hearing what the little assistant Balabala said, looked up at He Xin's confused look, and deliberately lowered his voice in Mandarin: "Xiao Tong said that the agent of the house soldier is arguing with the producer Mr. Liu upstairs." ”
"Really?"
He Xin was a little surprised, although he didn't like Du Peihong very much, but as an actor's agent, how could he quarrel with the producer?
You must know that this crew is different from all the crews he has been in before, because Lu Yue is not like Wang Xiaoshuai, who is both a director, screenwriter, and boss in the crew, and he is a man of his word in the crew;
Lu Yue is a pure director, he is not a producer, nor a screenwriter, but a hired director, in addition to filming, the producer Liu Jing is responsible for the affairs of the crew, in a sense, Liu Jing is the real boss of their current crew.
He subconsciously raised his head and swept around the restaurant with his eyes, but unexpectedly did not find the figure of the house soldier, and at this time, he saw one of Liu Jing's subordinates hurriedly running in from the outside, whispering a few words in the ear of director Lu Yue, and seeing that Lu Yue was stunned for a while after hearing it, and then whispered to Shi Yanjiu, who was sitting opposite him.
There are two or three hundred people in a crew, and everyone gets together, whether it is in work or life, there will inevitably be some bumps, but first quarreling with the producer, and then alarming the director, it is obviously not an ordinary quarrel, which affects the work.
Although He Xin cooperated with the house soldier again this time, the relationship became inexplicably more distant than when he was in the crew before, but the house soldier left a good impression on him overall, and there should be nothing out of the ordinary.
It's just that soon Shi Yanjiu came over with a new notice and said, "Today's shooting plan has been changed, let's shoot the scene of the two of you in the tree house first." ”
He Xin doesn't care about this, he can be said to be extremely well prepared this time, and he can handle any scene. But Shu Qi exclaimed, "Ah, I haven't memorized my lines!"
Speaking of which, this is probably Shu Qi's only shortcoming, usually on the set, she is often seen holding the script and reciting lines, but during the filming process, she often forgets the words and NG, which is very strange, the movie is originally different from the TV series, there are generally not many lines, how can you forget it before and behind it?
Shi Yanjiu could only say helplessly: "You hurry up and prepare first, if you really can't do it, just like last time, I'll ask the field staff to help you prepare a teleprompter." ”
Shu Qi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "This is good!"
In the original filming plan, there were several scenes of house soldiers and Shu Qi's rivalry, but now after changing it, I found that he and Shu Qi were left to play the three of He Qichao's children.
He Xin was still a little curious and asked Shi Yanjiu: "How can the shooting plan be changed, what about the house soldiers?"
Shi Yanjiu's words were vague, but his tone was obviously unhappy: "His agent said he was sick, who knows!"
He Xin also expressed doubts, because last night he still saw House Bing and Du Peihong walking out of the hotel together in the window, talking and laughing, and it seemed that they were either going to have fun or have supper. Besides, in terms of the body of the house soldier, in the more than two months that the crew has worked together, I have never heard of him having any headaches and brain fever.
Changing the shooting plan does not mean that it is easy to change, it involves various departments of the crew, and it is necessary to coordinate and do all kinds of preparations.
He Xin originally wanted to go to see the house soldier and ask about the situation, but when he thought of his agent Du Peihong's face, and the house soldier's strange state recently, he thought about it or forget it, he played his own play well, why did he care about so many others!
It's just that there is no impermeable wall in the world, and by the time He Xin arrived on the set to change clothes and put on makeup, he already understood the general situation of the matter, and the cause of this incident really made him cry and laugh.
said that Du Peihong had approached Liu Jing several times before and asked for a separate car for the house soldiers, and staying in a suite, etc., which were the same treatment as He Xin and Shu Qi.
Of course Liu Jing will not agree, because the treatment of He Xin and Shu Qi is written in the contract, why are you a house soldier? Besides, Liu Jing is very annoyed by Du Peihong, and often puts on the face of the actor's agent to pick this and that.
Besides, although the role of Yuan Dingguo played by House Bing has more scenes, the theme of the movie has always revolved around the love story of He Xin and Shu Qi.
To use a simple analogy, for example, a movie has 100 scenes, and you may be in 70 scenes, but the theme of the movie does not revolve around you, but reflects another theme through you. At the end of the day, you seem to be the main character, but you're really just a big match.
Obviously, Du Peihong didn't put the position of the house soldiers right, and he actually made inches again and again, and finally provoked Liu Jing, and quarreled this morning.
But the quarrel is noisy, and it can't affect the work, and Du Peihong turned around and told Liu Jing that the house soldiers were sick and couldn't shoot. What is this? It's clearly a blackmail to the crew!
Only then did He Xin realize why the house soldiers deliberately kept their distance from him this time, and there were all kinds of strange things, it turned out that the root was here!
At the same time, He Xin couldn't understand how the house soldiers could find such a strange agent and still obey him?
Alas, it's important to put yourself in the right position!
He Xin could only express his deep regret for this Senior Brother Fang at this time.
