Xu Ke's idea of filming is to make it easy first and then difficult, and try to shoot as smoothly as possible. The shooting along here is not the kind of shooting along the way presented in the movie, but a process of foreshadowing and fully accumulating the emotions of the actors in a scene according to the plot.

Filming a group scene is a very troublesome thing, not only to take care of the panorama but also the shots of a single or several actors, and it is not just about the excellent performance of the actors, but also to take into account the balance of the whole scene.

Group scenes are sometimes more like a group creation process, and during filming, it is often found that this or that is wrong, and then stop and discuss with everyone.

Filming is like this, the script is a one-time creation, the director is a secondary creation, and the actors have a high coffee position, and they can often put forward different opinions. In many cases, the screenwriter is with the group, and the director puts forward various modifications according to the actual situation, and then the screenwriter makes on-site revisions. As a result, some thick-skinned directors will also sign their names in the screenwriter column.

Old Monster Xu doesn't have this problem, although he often has wild ideas, and often discusses with He Xin and Lao Gaoxian. It will not be said that he is now both a producer and a director, and he has to force his signature in the screenwriter column.

The actors Zhongyingda, Wang Zhiwen, and Hu Jun are all big names in the industry, and they often have their own ideas during the filming process, especially in group scenes.

Although they specialize in the art industry, and an excellent actor is not as good as a third-rate screenwriter, they have a lot of experience, and sometimes their opinions are very constructive. Fortunately, the director Lao Gao is the screenwriter, and with He Xin, the nominal screenwriter, we can discuss it together on the spot.

As a result, the progress is slow, and a group scene that may end up presenting to the audience for a few minutes often takes several days to shoot. Fortunately, it is an in-studio drama, which was originally closed on all sides, and whether it is a day scene or a night scene, it needs to be shown with lights, and it can be filmed uninterruptedly, but the shooting intensity has increased a lot.

Fortunately, the actors are very dedicated, even if it is not their turn to take the camera, they still put on makeup and play next to them. In addition, Lao Gao's requirements are very high, he may have learned a hand from Xu Ke and added a lot of background scenes. For example, when filming the scene of Yingda, Wang Kai and Hu Jun sitting on the sofa chatting, the background may be Li Bingbing and Cheng Hao sitting at the dining table busy deciphering the code.

is not like those bad dramas in later generations, maybe when the actors are acting, they can't even see the actors in the opposite scenes, all kinds of stand-ins, all kinds of virtual scenes, plus all kinds of switching shots, and there is not even a panoramic shot, it can be edited into a group scene.

"Oops, I'm tired!"

As soon as he returned to the hotel room, Cheng Hao threw himself on the bed like a boneless mollusk.

"Hey, you took off your coat!" He Xin couldn't see this the most.

"I'm wearing my own clothes, and I don't have costumes. ”

"The clothes you wear outside aren't dirty, you want to sleep, take a shower and sleep again!"

"Don't wash it!

It is said that since his girlfriend got the Tokyo movie queen, it may be that her wish has finally come true, and she has no regrets in this life, and she has let go of herself more and more, and the number of spoiling has increased geometrically. At first, He Xin was quite surprised, cheap bones, but after many times, he was full of exhaustion and couldn't afford to hurt!

He could only walk over helplessly to help her take off her coat and take off her jeans, and finally couldn't help but slap her little ass: "I don't even wear a pair of autumn pants, isn't it cold?"

"It's a hassle to change costumes!"

Filming is indeed a very hard thing, it is November now, the filming period is three months, the colder the weather will be, there is no heating on the set, she and Li Bingbing are both looking at cheongsams with exposed arms and legs, which is harder than that of male actors.

He Xin helped her undress, squeezed a hot towel, helped her wipe her face and hands, and said, "Go back and let Xiaohong prepare more warm baby, be careful not to catch a cold." ”

"Yes, be ready!"

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening after finishing work today, and he didn't have time to go to the gym downstairs to exercise, so he did thirty push-ups in his room, practiced dumbbells for a while, and then took a hot shower and went to bed.

As soon as he lay down, the mollusk next to him stuck to it like an octopus.

"What, I didn't even take a shower, it stinks. ”

"Ahh

"Okay, go to sleep, we have to wake up early tomorrow. ”

"No, I can't sleep!"

"After a day of filming, I was yelling to sleep just now, why can't I sleep now?"

"Well, my body is tired, but my brain always refuses to rest, I just can't sleep. ”

"Alas!"

With a light sigh, Mr. He, the tool man, went online......

Fifteen minutes later, Mr. He had to get up and go to the bathroom to flush again. No way, Mr. He is a particular person.

Wipe your body with a bath towel and walk to the bed.

"Aren't you going to wash?"

"Don't wash!"

“......”

"Why are you stunned, come up! Don't worry, I won't bother you. ”

Teacher He timidly got into the quilt.

The octopus was pasted up again, but fortunately, there was no further action, and Mr. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, do you think Gu Xiaomeng really has that kind of emotion with Li Ningyu? Why do I think Gu Xiaomeng has been using Li Ningyu?"

"Why do you say that?"

"Originally, you think, Gu Xiaomeng is an underground party, Li Ningyu is a traitor, and they are not the same kind of people at all. Gu Xiaomeng must have intended to have a good relationship with her in order to get information. You said that there would be super friendship between the two, and the more I thought about it, the more unreliable I felt. ”

"Uh...... You can think of it this way, when Gu Xiaomeng learned that the telegram was a trap, she knew that she would not be able to get out of Qiu Zhuang again, and it could be seen from her last words that she had sewn Morse code on Li Ningyu's cheongsam early on, she had already put life and death aside. At the same time, it also shows that she still trusts Li Ningyu more, at least she is an object that can be fought for.

As for whether you said that there will be super-friendship emotions, if you think about it, when people reach a life-and-death situation, their emotions can easily get out of control. In addition, Li Ningyu suffered so much insult that she was on the verge of emotional collapse. Through what happened to Jin Shenghuo and Bai Xiaonian, she could roughly guess that her boyfriend Liu Linzong would not come out alive, so she didn't want to lose her last friend, and under this kind of intense emotional conflict, something could easily happen. It may be a knee-jerk action in an impulse, or it may be a subconscious hidden thing that is stimulated......"

Emotions are very subtle, this thing he has discussed with Xu Laowei, the two women hug each other in a desperate situation to keep warm, and it is easy to have a lily relationship. Just like the female devil played by Charlize Theron in the middle, this is the case with another man with a strange temperament.

......

In the empty Qiuzhuang hall, several orange lights shine on the dining table from top to bottom, the light gathers, several people sitting around the table are clear in the light, and the surrounding area is dark and dull, occasionally there is a thin layer of cold light, and the Japanese soldiers holding bayonets stand in the shadows, the darkness is clear, creating a gloomy atmosphere.

After taking a few panoramic shots and close-up shots, Lao Gao was ready to use a medium-shot long shot in one go.

It has been rehearsed many times before.

"Okay, get ready!"

“Action！”

Because this is the first group scene after the five people entered Qiu Zhuang, Cai Chonghui specially used the handheld lens this time, and the slightly shaky picture can increase the anxiety of the characters.

"This is a code intercepted by the Imperial Army this afternoon, and at first glance it looks like a lottery advertisement, but it is actually an underground terrorist organization that is delivering information related to their new wave of assassinations. Please come, just to crack this secret message and prevent it from happening. ”

Wang Zhiwen was holding a cigarette, smiling without smiling, and his lines with a strong sense of rhythm and rhythm, with just the right expressions and body movements, told the five people present the purpose of inviting them here.

While he was talking, the camera swept over the five people one by one, Yingda was holding a lottery ticket advertisement with a puzzled face; Wang Kai raised his eyebrows and had nothing to do with himself; Hu Jun lit a cigarette and consciously turned his back, looking unwilling to listen; Li Bingbing listened very carefully; as for Cheng Hao, he drooped his head, drank too much, and had a headache.

"It's funny, except for Team Leader Li, none of the people present are professional translators, what are you doing?

Wang Kai, who was grinding his nails in a girlish manner, took the lead in making trouble, as the commander's secretary, he was also arrogant.

Wang Zhiwen explained with a smile: "Adjutant Bai, the order is directly issued by the Japanese Garrison Command, and I hope you can fully cooperate." ”

Although the tone was polite, there was a taste of fox and tiger in the words.

Hu Jun was the first to hear it, so he turned sideways and asked Wang Kai: "Do our military departments know about this matter?"

"I don't know! The commander went on a business trip to Nanjing, and he won't be back until the day after tomorrow. ”

Although the camera was facing Wang Kai, when Hu Jun heard these three words in the virtual mirror, he immediately turned around and glared angrily at Wang Zhiwen.

Wang Zhiwen retracted his eyes in the eye with Hu Jun, his face was full of unhappiness, and he glanced at Cheng Hao, who was already sitting up straight at this time, pouting and impatient, and hurriedly showed a smile again, and nodded flatteringly.

Cheng Hao glanced at him coldly, holding his head high, as high as a princess.

Wang Zhiwen just ate this set, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

The highlight of group scenes is the appearance of all beings, and the medium shot will get different feedback when you sweep to everyone.

"It's all numbers, ah, ah?"

Ying Da is the oldest, pushing up the small glasses on the bridge of his nose, but he has been studying the lottery advertisement in his hand, very dazed.

"Don't look at me, I don't understand the code. Wang Kai leisurely continued to grind his nails.

Yingda looked at Hu Jun again: "What do you say?"

"Cut!"

Hu Jun snorted with a smile, snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, and said with a smile: "I'm not interested in this matter, if you want to talk about 28 bars and push pai gow, then I'm an expert." ”

Xiao Li ...... Xiao Li!"

Yingda asked Li Bingbing, who was in a daze with a cigarette, again.

It took two shouts in a row before Li Bingbing raised his head.

The beauty of a medium-shot shot is that it stays on one person, and the people next to it are all in the shot. Cheng Haozheng was bored with a pencil and scratched around on the paper, and when he heard Yingda's shout, he turned his eyes to Li Bailian beside him.

"It's useless, it can't be solved. This look is a encrypted code, with a total length of eighteen characters......"

Hearing this, Wang Zhiwen, who was pretending to read the newspaper, looked at Li Bingbing with a blank look, raised his eyelids and looked at Li Bingbing, and the meaning of scrutiny was obvious.

"If you want to decipher it, you have to find the mother copy! Otherwise, you can't think of it even if you sit here and want to die." Li Bingbing was holding a cigarette, intellectual and cold.

Hu Jun was stunned when he heard this, and turned his eyes to Wang Zhiwen, seeing that this thing was actually looking at the newspaper with Erlang's legs crossed. With an angry expression, he leaned up, took off the newspaper in his hand, faced the gloomy face, and said disdainfully: "Did you hear it, tell the Japanese." How can this be a result?"

In the background shadow, He Xin, dressed in military uniform, had quietly walked in.

"I'm going home!" Cheng Hao shouted with his hands raised.

Hu Jun also complained: "The day after tomorrow, Lao Tzu is going to suppress bandits, and I don't have time to spend here." ”

At this time, the camera focused on Hu Jun and Wang Zhiwen's vacancy, triangular layout, bright close-up, Wang Zhiwen pouted and listened to everyone's complaints, Hu Jun stood up with a dissatisfied face, and in the dark place of Zhongying, He Xin was walking over.

From darkness to light, at the junction of light and dark, I saw him shake his hand and throw the bloodstained script in his hand.

According to the design, he wants to throw this script directly on the dining table, alarm the people present, and then the big boss will make a grand appearance.

As a result, uh, the script fell half a meter away from the dining table, and "popped" and fell to the ground.

Careless......

"Cards!"

Lao Gao shouted in time to stop.

A medium-shot long shot at the end of the day, everything is perfect, seeing that the climax is about to end, there is a mistake at this time, and it is inevitable that I will be depressed.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I didn't throw this thing right. He Xin hurriedly raised his hand to greet with an apologetic face.

"Ah Xin, your goal is too inaccurate. ”

After all, it was his own little brother, Hu Jun hurriedly joked and helped ease the atmosphere.

"Ah Xin, throw it on time next time. ”

Lao Gao shouted dissatisfiedly, and then waved his hand: "Come again!"

Because this is a one-shot shot, you have to start all over again.

Fortunately, the actors are very powerful, they didn't drop the chain, and there was no pause in the middle.

"Smack!"

This time, He Xin finally threw it accurately, and the bloody script was thrown on the dining table accurately, and suddenly a shoal of gulls and herons was startled, oh no, the people sitting around the dining table were alarmed.

Wang Zhiwen looked back and quickly got up from the chair.

The others were squinting into the darkness, and the light was a little hard to see.

As soon as the camera turned, he focused on He Xin in the shadows, and saw him walking slowly step by step, and the big boss appeared!

"Takeda-cho!"

Wang Kai was the first to exclaim. Quickly stood up, swept away the usual sissy, stood up and saluted, and the movements were very standard.

Drama, there is a way to learn, this is the basic skill.

The others followed suit and stood up, even the most unruly Hu Jun, even if he was reluctant, he had to stand up, and he had to bow his head under the eaves.

"Who?"

Cheng Hao was still pretending to be crazy and stupid there, pointing at He Xin and asking.

"The head of the Imperial Army's secret service. ”

Li Bailian explained to her in a low voice, and quickly took her hand and stood up.

Cheng Hao's face was full of reluctance, looking at the disgust on the face of the person who came over, just like the expression on weekdays when he caught He Xin farting in the bed.

He Xin doesn't have the evil smile of the domineering president of the original Brother Xiao Ming. He carried the pride of the occupying army and the conqueror, and the others didn't even glance at it, and they didn't care about Cheng Hao's pretentious posture at all.

It was only when his eyes fell on Li Bailian that he eased up slightly, and bowed his head to her: "Jiu Yang, worthy of being professional!"

Then his tone changed, and he said in a blunt commanding tone: "This is the mother book, you can start!"

As he spoke, he looked at the others one by one with a sharp gaze......

"Okay, it's over!"

Lao Gao shouted without any hesitation.
