Chapter 381: It's hard for a man to be without money

Laugh if you want to, don't hold back. He Xin glanced at the woman next to him who was covering her mouth, and said helplessly.

"Poof!"

Gao Yuanyuan finally laughed unscrupulously, and then forcibly waved her hand and said, "Xiaohe, I'm not laughing at your bad dancing, but your appearance is too funny." You don't know, Wang Yangyang and I were both stupid at that time, and we didn't know how to act. ”

"It's all about results. He Xin said slightly.

As he spoke, he glanced at the other party again, and said, "But fortunately, you didn't laugh at the time, otherwise it might not be so natural." ”

In fact, there is no description of this disco in the script, but it is written that Li Jun saw Xiao Zhen and invited her to dance, Xiao Zhen was shy at first and twisted and pinched, but Li Jun forced her to dance together, Xiao Zhen couldn't dance, so she could only follow him very clumsily......

When he first saw this paragraph, He Xin felt that it was too conventional and there were no highlights. In the original unrevised script, Li Jun made a cameo appearance in about a dozen scenes, and this scene may be the most brilliant one, and he was a little unwilling.

At that time, he had just seen Quentin's "Vulgar" and was particularly impressed by the scuffling dance between John Travolta and Uma Thurman, so he suggested that the director could change it.

This suggestion is in line with Wang Xiaoshuai. "Me 19" is a project that was rushed into action after "Me 11" couldn't be filmed, and Wang Xiaoshuai originally revised it while filming.

Of course, the twisting dance in "Vulgar" was not suitable for that era, so it was changed to the latest disco of the time.

He Xin's understanding of this scene is a kind of show-off by a boy in order to win the favor of a beautiful girl. But in Wang Xiaoshuai's particularly cultured words, this is a natural reaction of a male courting a female, like a peacock opening the screen, so it must be beautiful and exaggerated, so the funny and riotous disco shown by He Xin during this night's shooting was born.

may be because he often discussed "Stone" with Ning Hao some time ago, and when he designed this dance, he specially mixed some black humor ingredients.

To say more, he was also influenced by Ning Hao when he watched "Vulgar" before, this guy especially likes those black humor movies abroad, especially admires Guy Ritchie's "Two Big Smoking Guns".

He also watched this movie under Ning Hao's introduction, and when he first watched it, he felt that it was very familiar from the storyline to the shooting techniques, and when he saw it halfway, he finally understood that "Stone" directed by Ning Hao in the original time and space was clearly the same way as this movie.

Of course, this cannot be said to be plagiarism, but can only be said to be borrowed and tributed. For example, after he watched "Vulgar", he found that the "Changing Star" played by Xing Ye before had a scene where Xing Ye danced with a woman, from the plot to the lines, it was almost exactly the same as the scene in "Vulgar" where John Travolta and Uma Thurman danced Niu Niu.

Do we also want to say that this is not plagiarism from Xingye?

Of course, this is Xing Ye's second tribute to "Vulgar".

It's like the best-selling "How Much Do You Know About the Flowers in Your Dreams" pays tribute to "Inside and Outside the Circle", and the TV series "Palace Lock City" borrows from Grandma Qiong Yao's "Plum Blossom Branding" in the same way.

"Thank you!"

After laughing, Gao Yuanyuan thanked him a little shyly.

"Huh?"

He Xin was stunned at first, then reacted, waved his hand hurriedly, and said modestly and a little against his will: "This is a trick, the main thing is that you act well." ”

"Come on, I have a few pounds and taels myself, and I still have self-knowledge. Gao Yuanyuan snorted, and then said: "Okay, I'll go back to the capital tomorrow, oh shouldn't it be this morning, I'll be back in two days, what do you have to bring, just speak." ”

"Hey, you're still playing?"

"No, how dare I shoot a play directed by Xiao Shuai? It's a temporary event, and there will be no drama for the next two days. ”

"That's a good dare, then when you come back, help me bring two double happiness. He hurriedly said, and at the same time took out the cigarette case in his pocket and showed it to Gao Yuanyuan.

The director added drama to him, the schedule was extended by nearly a month, the rations were not much, and there was a danger of running out of food at any time, and his taste has always been more specific.

......

Sister Yuanyuan went and returned, although she helped him bring two double happiness back, she also disliked him for slamming the door, and specially helped him bring two more Great China, which was regarded as thanking him for his previous guidance.

In the past two days, he has been filming Li Bing's play, and he has watched a few scenes, just as Wang Xiaoshuai is not satisfied, Li Bing, as a young man in Beijing, plays a temporary worker from a peasant family in the play, which is indeed a bit dramatic.

However, he was also fortunate to watch a "large-scale" scene, the scene where Yao Anlian and Li Bing had a conversation in the factory bathroom. It stands to reason that Li Bing has a lot of room to play in this scene, but his acting skills are limited, and under Lao Yao's full firepower, Li Bing is simply powerless.

This scene was filmed all day, in Lao Yao's words, the two of them were about to peel off their skins, and in desperation, the original scene of the two people finally became Lao Yao's one-man show, and Li Bing was reduced to more of a human background.

It can be seen that He Xin is a straight tooth flower.

At the end of the day, opportunity still lands in the prepared mind. Otherwise, it can only be Adou who can't be helped. Originally, he also wanted to invite Li Bing to play a cameo role in "Wulin Gaiden", but after watching this scene, he suddenly stopped thinking about it.

After filming the scene of the underground dance party, He Xin's scenes were relatively fragmented, and he mixed in the crew every day, which gave him time to observe how director Wang Xiaoshuai controlled the direction and tone of the play during the filming.

Since he entered the industry, he has seen a lot of works that he has never heard of in his previous life, such as Section Chief Jia, Zhang Yuan, Lou Ye, Wang Chao, etc., who have just been whitewashed, or still have not been whitewashed.

In all these works, he found that there are many things in common, such as the long shot of madness, such as the indifference of the lens language, the lack of technique, and so on.

The same is true of "Me 19". Compared with Gu Changwei's "Peacock" in which He Xin made a cameo before, it should be said that there are many similarities in terms of subject matter and era background, but in addition to Gu Changwei's more delicate lens language, the biggest difference is that in this linear story, the camera acts as an indifferent bystander, without any sympathy, and Wang Xiaoshuai's own cruel youth when filming.

......

"What, didn't you say that you would come back on New Year's Day, why did it become that you won't be back until late January?" Cheng Hao said in an unkind tone on the phone.

Before, because he was afraid of affecting his girlfriend's preparation for the exam, except for calling to greet him every day, He Xin didn't dare to mention his own affairs. Today is the day when his girlfriend finishes the exam, so he reported his itinerary to the other party.

"The director temporarily changed the script and added more than a dozen scenes to me, and now I am the number three male and have to follow the group. ”

"No, I used to make a cameo, how do I get paid?" asked my girlfriend very keenly.

Because the cameo was said to be free before.

"The director didn't mention it, and of course I didn't want to ask. But I guess it's enough, the crew is now short of funds, and the director is still worried about money while filming. Okay, don't talk about me, how do you feel about the exam in the past two days?"

"Anyway, everything that has been done has been done, and there is no way to do it if it can't be done, and now I can only resign myself to fate. Hey, by the way, let me tell you, I'm going to join the group the day after tomorrow, the set is on the Pinggu side, it's quite far from the city, I won't live at home during this time, and I'll also bring the strings over with me?"

As one of the bosses of the studio, Ning Hao also attended the start-up ceremony, in his words, he had a good conversation with the God of Wealth and Director Shang;

He Xin agrees with Xiaodouding's point of view in this regard, doing business, not looking for a partner, character is worth a few dollars, the key is to be profitable, try to achieve a win-win situation.

Because of the shortage of funds, the crew finally did not adopt the plan of filming in the studio of Beijing Film Studio at the beginning, and then found a place called Feilong Valley in Pinggu, where there happened to be a newly developed small film and television city in the village.

The advantage is to save money, the disadvantage is that it is far away from the city, and the traffic is not very convenient, the car can only drive to the foot of the mountain, and you have to walk up the mountain.

"Cheng, if I can come back early, try to come back early. ”

It may be that my girlfriend just finished the exam today, and I have a feeling that I am finally liberated, my girlfriend has a lot of words today, and most of them are complaining about how hard the review during this period of time is, He Xin can only coax on the phone.

The phone call lasted more than an hour.

When talking to his girlfriend on the phone, Lu Xiao took the initiative to avoid going out for supper with a few new friends from the crew under the pretext of going out for supper. He also said that he would bring him something to eat when he came back.

It's just that he didn't see the goods come back at this time, He Xin lay on the bed and flipped through the script for a while and fell asleep in a daze.

I don't know how long I slept, and I faintly heard a noise, from far to near, from vague to clear.

He opened his eyes, rubbed his face, made a face, and heard a voice coming from the hallway. Looking at the sky outside, it's still dark, what time is it?

"This place!"

He muttered a spit and looked up at the time, where the glow-in-the-dark hands showed that it was only one o'clock in the morning.

"Smack!"

turned on the wall lamp at the head of the bed, but found that Xiao Luzi hadn't come back yet.

"This thing isn't going to do anything bad, is it?" he couldn't help but scold.

The sound in the corridor continued, and it sounded very familiar, He Xin hesitated for a moment, but still got up and got dressed, and pulled his slippers out of the door.

At the end of the narrow corridor, under the dim light, I saw Wang Xiaoshuai talking on the phone with an anxious face, and the executive director Niu Le, including the assistant director of the crew, and the producers sent to the crew by the investor were all around.

"It's okay, it's just a broken arm, nothing else, it's just that the car is scrapped......"

Wang Xiaoshuai was a little relieved after hanging up the phone, but he still frowned and still didn't show up to inform a few people around him of the situation.

"As long as people are okay, it really scared me to death just now. Niu Le said with a palpitating face.

Then I saw Wang Xiaoshuai say to the producer: "Lao Wang, can you tell Mr. Qin to reflect the situation on our side and strive to allocate some more money, otherwise it will really not be able to sustain it." Look at it, if it weren't for Hua Tong trying to save money today, there wouldn't be such a big deal?"

The producer of the dragon set also said with a bitter face: "Director Wang, I have already reacted to Mr. Qin about the situation here, but we have overspended, Mr. Qin is not easy to talk over there, otherwise you will call?"

"Me?"

Wang Xiaoshuai pointed to his nose, first with an incredulous expression, and then with a bitter look on his face, he said with difficulty for a while: "Okay, I'll discuss it with Mr. Qin again......

As he was talking, he looked up and saw He Xin.

"What's wrong?" He Xin asked confusedly.

"Hua Tong was in a car accident. ”

"What?"

He Xin looked surprised, and hurriedly said: "I'm still here in the evening, how could there be a car accident?

“......”

Wang Xiaoshuai looked stunned and was embarrassed to say.

"It's not because of no money!" Niu Le on the side said helplessly.

It turned out that the crew would use two old cars for a scene tomorrow, this kind of car is very rare on the market, and the rental price for filming is very expensive, and in the evening, Li Huatong found out that there are two such cars in the neighboring city, and the rent is 3,000 yuan cheaper than the one that was contacted before. In order to save this money, he and the driver of the crew went to the neighboring city to pick up the car overnight, and they didn't want to have an accident in the car driven by Li Huatong on the road.

The car was scrapped and took one of Li Huatong's arms.

"Oh yes, when the accident happened, it happened that your assistant Xiao Lu and a few people in the group came back from outside, I asked them to rush to the neighboring city to deal with it, and Xiao Lu also followed. Wang Xiaoshuai added.

"It's fine. He Xin hurriedly responded.

It's just that he is still a little stunned now, although he also knew early on that because Wang Xiaoshuai was too far, the crew's funds were tight, but he didn't expect to be nervous to this extent, just for a mere 3,000 yuan, the production director of the crew would personally rush to a neighboring city dozens of kilometers overnight to pick up two classic cars.

He still couldn't help but say, "This ...... Isn't it going to be so short of money?"

"No, huh!"

Niu Le glanced at the producer of the trick dissatisfiedly, and said aggrievedly: "If the director hadn't paid for it out of his own pocket during this time, he would have run out of food a long time ago." ”

"Uh......"

He Xinchao looked at Wang Xiaoshuai.

Wang Xiaoshuai was depressed and embarrassed at this time, and said: "In the end, it's all my fault, otherwise Hua Tong wouldn't be so anxious, but ......."

Halfway through speaking, I couldn't go on with grievances.

He Xin understood in an instant......

It is estimated that Lao Wang is about to run out for this drama, and the investor is estimated to be acting in strict accordance with the contract and is unwilling to make additional investment.

Seeing Lao Wang's troubled look, he felt uncomfortable, thought about it, turned back to the house, took out a bank card, and invested all the money in his hand into the play "Wulin Gaiden", and even mortgaged the house. Now I have more than 100,000 yuan in hand, and I still wanted to buy a car for my girlfriend, but my girlfriend bought the car, and this money is saved.

Wang Xiaoshuai didn't think much about it, and now the hundreds of thousands of dollars could solve his immediate needs, and he couldn't care about his face and quickly accepted it.

He knew He Xin's current situation, so he was even more moved, how to say it, he could only keep it in his heart first.
