Chapter 904: The Trap of the Media
Ye Ming looked at the contract in his hand and said, "There are still two little actors who haven't signed a contract with us, right?" Sister Fang Fang checked it and said: "It's not wrong, because it must be their guardian's consent to sign the contract, otherwise it will be a violation, and their agent has a lion mouth and wants to raise the price." β
Ye Ming said without hesitation: "Don't wait, use spare actors, there are not many others in Huaxia, but there are many people, and the children are not worse than one or two." These actors have to be in our hands, maybe the big stars of the future will be able to come out of here?"
Ye Ming has already said in one sentence that the life trajectories of some recognized people will change somewhat.
A low shantytown in Shanghai, don't think that Shanghai must be high-rise buildings, in fact, there are shantytowns in Shanghai, Ye Ming took the script, looked at the camera in front of the monitor, frowned a little, he was very unhappy and said: "We have been filming for three days, if it is said that the first day is the run-in period, it is forgivable, then in such a situation, today is the third day, if you say that you want any more run-in period, it is a little difficult to say." β
Sister Fang Fang said very helplessly: "There is no way to do this, children, they are not so cooperative with acting, some things are not something that can be controlled by manpower, adults are easy to say, but children, it is not easy to control them." Especially in this hot summer, it is not so easy to shoot children's shots, mistakes are allowed, and you can't be too demanding of anything as a director. β
Ye Ming pondered for a moment and said, "You call Xiaocao and Tiantian over, I have something to say to her." β
Xiaocao is the childhood of the heroine He Jia, and she is also a small actor that Ye Ming first identifies, very talented in acting, but seems to have some stage fright.
And every day is the childhood of the actor Zhao Fan, the second place selected from hundreds of young actors who have applied. Because the requirements for the first place were too high, he was directly denied by Ye Ming. An actor who doesn't listen to the director, no matter how good his performance is, no matter how talented he is, Ye Ming will not use it.
Tian Tian was lucky to become the little protagonist of this movie. It's the first time I've started making movies, and this is somewhat understandable. Xiaocao and Tiantian just said that they were a little nervous and came over and said, "Uncle, you are looking for me." β
If it's an average actor. Standing in front of Ye Ming, especially standing in front of Ye Ming's stern face, it was basically said that he had become trembling.
But Xiaocao is a child in the end, and in such a situation, it simply means that he doesn't feel the scene of the mountain rain coming.
Of course, Ye Ming didn't want to lose his temper in front of the children, because he knew very well that he couldn't blame the children for this matter, these children. You can see that you have worked hard.
Ye Ming asked directly: "The two of you, it's not that you don't work hard, I've seen the lines memorized, it's very hard, and I'm also on the scene when you're playing, when you play against each other, it's a very good performance, but when you officially start recording." Why are there all those nervous and undeserved mistakes?"
It is a basic requirement for an actor to ensure a good condition in front of the camera. Even if you are talking about group performances, you must try your best to ensure that your expression is the best in front of the camera.
Xiaocao can be said to be the first time to contact acting, and plucked up the courage to say: "Actually, I don't know, that is, after shouting to turn on, my whole person is like a brain with a paste and I don't know what to do." β
Tian Tian thought about it and said, "I'm pretty much the same, the more time I start shooting." The more nervous I am, I usually memorize my lines very well, but I always can't forget them at critical moments. β
Ye Ming pondered for a moment at this time, nervous, and forgot his words. This is indeed a table of stage fright, if you can't solve such a problem, then it's still easy to make some mistakes at this time.
On such a thing, Ye Ming's own ideas cannot be imposed on the two children, although he can be angry with the crew and the actors, but with the two children.
Ye Ming knew that he couldn't get angry casually. At this moment, the entertainment empire system has been launched, and it has not been a long time since I have seen the entertainment industry empire system launched.
This also means that Ye Ming has not made any progress for a long time. Although it is said that Ye Ming's grades have reached the peak of Asia, there are still some things that he still needs to learn. For example, what should the director do at this time.
The entertainment empire system shows that Ye Ming comprehends the true meaning of the three-star director and teaches him according to his aptitude. Different guidance methods should be used for different actors,]
Teach according to aptitude, there is no class, this is the most basic Su zhì of a three-star director, the director who can do this part, if it is not because of some unbearable factors, then he will become a big director if he looks for a thing.
At this time, Ye Ming finally understood what it was like to teach students according to their aptitude, that is, what kind of teaching actors to perform one of their roles.
Ye Ming turned on the button of children and entered his own question, at this time, the answer given by the entertainment empire system was [encouragement, inducement, inducement, encouragement. γ
Ye Ming frowned and said, "Can't you preach, if you tell them how they should act, will it make these little actors improve a little." β
The system decisively replied [Impossible, the way children perform is very different from the way ordinary people perform, therefore, at this time, children's talents are the most difficult to imitate and change. γ
If it is said that in such a situation, Ye Ming wants to deal with some problems, it is that he should find the key, the key to children is that you can't treat them in the way of normal actors.
Ye Ming nodded, then readjusted his thoughts and said: "This matter, there are also some factors in me, and your shooting is relatively easy below, I will let you practice more in real scenes, don't turn on the camera, let you practice first, in this way, the chance of success is relatively high." β
This method is indeed a good way, if you don't start shooting directly. This is really a time-saver. Moreover, on such a problem, it is also possible for the two young actors to give full play to their imagination.
This helps them integrate into the movie, don't think that the little actors are just going to join in the fun, and they can't fit into the movie, in fact, this is wrong. On such a problem, if the young actor can be integrated into the movie, then in such a thing, the overall effect of the movie can be improved. And what Ye Ming wanted was also an effect like this.
Ye Ming asked Xiaocao and Tiantian to go back first to prepare for the next shooting, and then found Xu Zheng over. Xu Zheng is as easy as Meng Kunyu, Xiaocao and Tiantian.
He knows best how much the crew spends a day, at such a time, there is basically not much gain in three days, and it is strange if the director can feel better at this time.
Therefore. On such a thing, Xu Zheng also walked over in fear, it was like walking on thin ice. Xu Zheng said cautiously: "Director, what do you want me to order?" β
Ye Ming pondered for a moment, and then said: "The filming of the crew is not very ideal, so at such a time, I decided to change the way of filming and use candid shooting to carry out the next shooting?"
If it was said that Ye Ming lost his temper, then in such a situation. Xu Zheng said that he could accept it, after all, he meant that in such a situation, it meant that Ye Ming still trusted him.
But. Ye Ming's appearance was light, this matter was comparatively made Xu Zheng confused, is the boss angry, or is he not angry, does it mean that the boss has doubts about his ability?
This is quite a big thing for Xu Zheng. Therefore, at this moment, Xu Zheng said very resolutely: "Boss." If you give me another chance, I'll definitely shoot this scene. β
directed the biography of Zhen Huan, such a difficult TV series, everyone worked together to complete it, in the process. Xu Zheng also learned a lot. The director came out step by step, like the national teacher Zhang Yimou, if he hadn't come out of the movie step by step, and the opera had been filmed a lot, and in the end, the Olympics would have directed him?
That is impossible, Zhang Yimou is precisely because of his rich experience in directing films, large-scale productions, operas, etc., so he got the opportunity to direct the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games later.
Xu Zheng can say that most of the movies and TV series can be directed now, and he can be regarded as the director with the most experience in brilliant film and television.
This time as an executive director, I haven't fully exerted my skills until now.
Ye Ming saw Xu Zheng's determination to prove himself, and waved his hand with a smile and said, "Xu Zheng, I'm not saying to question your execution ability, but to say that you are not good at performing children's roles."
This is the most difficult thing for directors to do, there are only a handful of directors in the world who can have this ability, at least now it is difficult for me to fully express this kind of realm, so we have to be opportunistic. It's not that your execution ability is not successful, in fact, it is the same effect if you change other directors to be executive directors. β
Xu Zheng was reluctant to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that he didn't question his ability, and said with some hesitation: "Could it be that it is impossible to say that directors of the level of Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige are here?"
Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "It's hard to say, I don't know what realm they have reached, but, I think, it is also difficult for them to control the situation, why is it difficult for the little ghost to copy, it is because it is so difficult to find a Macaulay King, it is a genius little actor, of course, and Shirley Temple, anyway, not only must there be a good director, but also a good little actor."
Our Huaxia, Shi Xiaolong, Hao Shaowen, are also this kind of genius little actors, maybe Xiaocao will have this ability after a while, but we can't wait, in such a situation, we have to hurry up and catch up with the scene, and the planned filming must be completed?"
Xu Zheng thought about it, thought about the success or failure of the past three days, and then said: "Boss, if it is said, can we succeed by using the method of candid photography at this time?"
At this time, Sister Fang Fang walked in angrily, took a newspaper and said, "Boss, take a look." What is this published on today's [Southern Sunday], it is clearly hacking our crew, saying that we have been on the film for three days, and we haven't even finished filming a minute of the scene, it's a waste of time?"
This [Southern Sunday] has always been black Ye Ming, but fortunately, Ye Ming's appearance has always been very steady, and there are not many things that make people black, even emotionally, because of Chen Xi's existence, it will not have any scandals with other actresses.
Ye Ming, Zhao Wei, and Fan Binbin have a very good relationship, and they have also cooperated with Zhang Ziyi and Zhou Xun separately, but there have been no scandals again, which is also rare.
But [Southern Sunday] seems to mean that they deliberately can't get along with Ye Ming, if it is said that there is a chance for Black Ye Ming, then they are definitely indispensable [Southern Sunday].
After Ye Ming saw these reports, he said with a smile: "Almost, we did shoot relatively little, for three days, not even a five-minute scene was filmed, although they have decreased a little, but there is no difference in nature, let them say it, as long as they don't spread rumors, they love to say how they want." We make movies, they give us publicity, and we're worried about what to do. β
Although there is a slight difference in the number of jΓΉ when reporting on [Southern Sunday], at least there is nothing to spread rumors in essence.
One minute and five minutes are actually very few for Ye Ming, and there is nothing to worry about this.
The key is that Ye Ming doesn't have this mind, if he fights a lawsuit for this kind of report all day long, then Ye Ming doesn't have to do anything else all year round.
Therefore, Ye Ming did not pay any attention to this matter at all. Sister Fang Fang said with some incomprehension: "Is this matter over like this?" I can't swallow this breath, I see." We're still going to sue them, for reporting like this. How much has the reputation of our crew been damaged? Killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, basically did the same thing, right?"
Ye Ming shook his head and said: "This is a trap of [Southern Sunday], they still wish we could sue them immediately, and at that time, everyone will sue them, and they will gather more popularity." This is a hype in disguise, so we don't have to be deceived, and we don't have to cooperate with the [Southern Sunday] hype. (To be continued......)
