Chapter 225: Unexpected Joy
The crew transferred to France in late May to shoot, which does not mean that all the storylines that take place in France must be filmed in France. Most of the indoor scenes are still filmed in China.
The crew rented two bungalows on Duolun Road, the small red round western-style building as Pan Yuliang's residence in Shanghai, and the other large western-style building with a construction area of more than 1,000 square meters, which brought together scenes such as Pan Zanhua's office as the governor of customs, Pan Zanhua's apartment in Shanghai, and Pan Yuliang's residence and studio in France.
When He Xin arrived on the set after dinner, he was also filming a scene in the French apartment between Pan Zanhua played by Hu Jun and Pan Yuliang played by Li Jiaxin.
I saw Hu Jun wearing a white shirt, a mustache sticking to his upper lip, and his hair was not as oily and shiny as in the previous play, combing and shooting beautiful parted hair, which was his usual appearance, dry and fluttering with a little natural curl, looking at home.
And Li Jiaxin is still wearing delicate makeup, meticulous hair buns, red makeup and light eyebrows. Wearing a red sweater and a long skirt of Garcinia cambogia that reached the length of the foot.
The two sat side by side in a studio surrounded by oil paintings.
“Cut!”
But before the two of them could say a few words, they heard Guan Jinpeng shouting, poked his head out from behind the surveillance, and shouted at Li Jiaxin: "Michelle, emotions, pay attention to your emotions, don't be too rigid in your expression." ”
"Got it, director, give me five minutes and let me adjust. ”
Although Li Meiren looked very tired, her attitude was still very good, and her tone of voice was also very sincere.
"Good!"
After the director agreed, Li Jiaxin did not ask her Mandarin teacher to come over to review the pronunciation of the lines in Mandarin as usual, as usual, but walked to the balcony alone to breathe, and at the same time brewed the emotions of the characters in the play.
Instead, Hu Jun ran out in a daze, dragged He Xin and asked, "Let's go, go out and smoke a cigarette." ”
Walking into the corridor outside, he couldn't wait to spread out his hand, and when he saw He Xin's slow swallowing of the cigarette, he urged in his mouth: "Hurry up!"
I just saw the red double happiness cigarette box that He Xin took out, and at the same time pouted when he grabbed it: "I said you kid, when will the grade go up a little!"
He Xin also lit one and said leisurely: "I think this cigarette is very good to smoke." ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but ask, "How long do you shoot?"
"Don't mention it!"
Hu Jun smashed his mouth and said with a depressed face: "This lens alone has already been NG more than a dozen, the key is, the key is...... Tsk, you should know it in your heart anyway. ”
The problem must be Li Jiaxin, but if you are not serious, everyone may still complain about it, but this sister is very serious, and there are many scenes, there is almost no time to rest, so I can't say this.
In the final analysis, Li Meiren still lacks talent, and there are too many scenes, so it is easy to lose sight of one or the other.
Hu Jun hurriedly finished smoking a cigarette and went in to continue filming, while He Xin squatted next to Guan Jinpeng and looked at the picture in the monitor.
“Cut!”
......
“Cut!”
......
“Cut!”
I haven't had a few in a row, and Li Meiren, who was still calm, couldn't help but get anxious, and when filming restarted again, in a hurry, the accustomed Gangpu suddenly came out and said that "painting" became "painting flowers".
I don't know which staff member at the scene couldn't help but laugh out loud, which then caused the audience to laugh.
Filming is sometimes like this, once everyone's string is tighter and tighter, there is always a place to vent. Li Meiren's unintentional sentence of "painting flowers" undoubtedly detonated the critical point of venting in all the hearts of the scene, and Hu Jun, who was still depressed before, laughed so much that even the mustache stuck to his upper lip fell off half, just drooping on his lips, and once again successfully caused a laugh.
Li Meiren was stunned at first, then embarrassed, until she couldn't help covering her mouth and giggling when she saw Hu Jun's honor.
Guan Jinpeng, who was speechless, glanced at He Xin beside him, and had to say helplessly: "Don't shoot, let's eat first." ”
Hearing his words, the scene burst into cheers. At this time, it was almost eight o'clock, and dinner had already been delivered, and it was because of repeated NG that it was delayed until now.
The conditions on the scene were relatively simple, except for the biggest Li Meiren, who went downstairs to eat in the dressing room accompanied by the assistant, everyone else was solved on the spot.
Guan Jinpeng sat in front of the monitor while picking up his meal, and said to He Xin: "By the way, is there a production company for your "Incense"?"
"Production company?"
He Xin was stunned for a moment and said, "No, I just shot it myself." ”
Guan Jinpeng frowned and said: "This is not good, your film always has to be sold when it is filmed, there is no production company, how can people sign a contract with you?"
When He Xin heard Guan Jinpeng's words, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Director, so there are eyebrows on the three continents of Nantes?"
"It's not France, I got in touch with Marco Müller this morning, and by the way, I mentioned your "Incense", and I can take it to him along with "The Landscape of Love" when the time comes. ”
He Xin listened to the clouds and couldn't help asking: "Director, who is Marco Muller?"
This time, Guan Jinpeng was stunned, and then smiled: "You decrepit boy, you don't even know Marco Muller, what other movies do you invest in......"
At this time, Hu Jun came over with a lunch box, and when he heard a little bit, he couldn't help but be curious: "Ah Xin, have you invested in movies?"
"A friend of mine made a DV movie, and I played a monk as I told you last time, and we didn't have much money, so we just got together and got it. He Xin said modestly.
At the beginning, in order to let Guan Jinpeng help, he specifically said that this "Incense" was made by him and Ning Hao together. In fact, this is not nonsense, Ning Hao originally promised him half of the proceeds of this film.
Now he has paid another 100,000 yuan to Ning Hao to let him transfer the film to glue, and then do the post-production such as color grading and sound effects again.
"Their film is very good, and it just won the gold medal in the Asian DV Film Competition at the Hong Kong International Film Festival. I just told him that I would show it to Marco Muller, and this decrepit boy doesn't know who Marco Muller is.
It's just that Hu Jun's eyes were already wide, and he slapped him on the shoulder heavily, and said excitedly: "You kid can, Renmar Müller is the filmmaker of the Venice Film Festival in Asia!
"Venice Film Festival?"
He Xin's mind was a little confused for a while, because Lao Guan also told him that the three major European film festivals were fiercely competitive, and he was ready to recommend "Incense" to try his luck at the Nantes Three Continents International Film Festival, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity to participate in the Venice Film Festival in a blink of an eye?
Hu Jun then said: "Marco Muller is a China expert, he studied in China and stayed for several years, when Zhang Yimou, Tianzhuang Zhuang, as well as Zhang Yuan and Lu Yue first went to Europe to participate in their films, he recommended them. ”
"So awesome?" He Xin said subconsciously.
"Of course, what do you say?" Hu Jun suddenly glared.
Then he pointed to Guan Jinpeng, who took the time to bury his head in cooking, and said: "You kid has such a good opportunity, don't thank you director!"
"Uh......"
Just as He Xin was about to thank him, Guan Jinpeng waved the chopsticks in his hand and said with a smile: "I'm just helping to recommend it, it just so happens that Miaoxue's "Scenery of Love" is also preparing to sign up for the Venice Film Festival." However, whether it can be shortlisted or not can only be determined after people have seen it. ”
Then he added: "But even if you can't be shortlisted, it doesn't matter, at least you can take it to the film festival and screen a few shows to find a buyer, so I told you to have a production company, otherwise how can people sign a contract with you!"
"Company, can we register a film company in China?" He Xin looked at Hu Jun and asked with a confused expression.
As a reborn person, he was really too low-minded in his previous life, and he didn't know anything about this kind of thing.
"It seems that it is quite troublesome to register a film company privately, right?" Hu Jun was also a little unsure, but immediately said: "Then you might as well register one directly in Hong Kong!"
"Can Hong Kong?"
"Of course!"
Now Hu Jun has been in Hong Kong for more than a year, and then he began to popularize science with He Xin.
It turns out that it is very convenient to register a film company in Hong Kong, but in fact, it is not only a film company, but any company is very convenient, and you only need to pay a registration fee of more than 1,000 Hong Kong dollars.
