Chapter 35: Boot Up! Act I!
The next day, at the start-up ceremony of the crew of "Li Bai", many media rushed over.
Basically all the crews will hold a start-up ceremony, the crew will cover the camera with a red cloth, the table used for worship is covered with a red velvet cloth, the table is dedicated to Emperor Guan, on both sides are the incense burner and the roast suckling pig and fresh fruits offered, and then the main creator of the crew will worship God in turn, and finally the director will uncover the red cloth of the machine and announce the start-up.
The opening ceremony, on the one hand, is to attract the attention of the audience, and on the other hand, to seek peace.
"Teacher Hong Chen, meet again. At the end of the boot-up ceremony, Yan Yileng stepped forward and said with a smile to Hong Chen, "I heard that your acting skills have conquered Director Zhang, please give me more advice in the future." ”
Yan Yileng is wearing a tight-fitting casual clothes, with a bumpy figure and a refreshing hairstyle, which has a unique charm.
In her opinion, Hong Chen's ability to suppress Ning Hang, Ren Tianzhi and other small fresh meat to win the starring role of Li Bai is definitely a powerful figure.
For this kind of character, a good relationship will be of great benefit to one's own development.
As for the title of "teacher", although it is just a joke, the crew generally calls the actors "teachers", even if they are third-tier actors, the crew will call them "teachers".
Similar to "Teacher Hong Chen, the next scene is your play" and "Teacher Yan Yileng, you need to make up for it", the crew called it that, and it is also a convention.
"You are a senior, how dare I advise. Hong Chen joked.
Hearing this, Yan Yi smiled coldly, but asked mischievously: "Then I'll teach you?"
"I can't ask for it. ”
Both of them laughed, and at this moment, director Zhang Hai called for people to go over and take pictures, and they rushed over and took a photo with everyone to turn on the camera.
In the evening, it was naturally another dinner for the crew, and several leading actors and directors and screenwriters ate and drank together.
Zhang Hai belongs to the bold type at the wine table, Wang Luyi who plays the emperor, Tian Yuan who plays Gao Lishi, and the two screenwriters are also in this style.
"Come on, drink, if you don't drink this cup, you won't give me face!"
"Director Zhang, I have to toast you with this cup, I'll do it, you feel free!"
"Let me mention one, I wish the filming of "Li Bai" a smooth and box office hit, everyone will do it together!"
Compared with them, Hong Chen is much more elegant, but he never shirks the wine that should be drunk, and he drinks it all.
Yan Yileng and another actress who played Li Bai's wife were also at the wine table, but Yan Yileng only drank drinks, the reason was that he couldn't drink, and the other actress was a lot more casual and finished a cup without a bad drink.
The scene was very lively, Hong Chen could see that Yan Yileng didn't like this kind of scene, he didn't care, it was okay.
The two looked at each other, Hong Chen blinked, revealing a helpless expression, which made Yan Yi sneer.
At the end of the banquet, after the actress finished drinking, she was hugged by a screenwriter and went back together. Yan Yileng returned to the hotel accompanied by his agent.
Hong Chen heard that some crews were more chaotic in this regard, probably because of the end of this kind of start-up banquet, the actors, directors and screenwriters hugged each other and left.
The crew is much more complicated than expected.
However, Zhang Hai's crew is okay, after all, he is an international director, a tyrant on the set, and he is very demanding, so there is a lot less mess.
That night, Hong Chen got the script of "Li Bai", and he carefully read the story that the script was going to tell.
This story is the background of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, telling the story of Li Bai after he entered Beijing.
From the heroism of the initial "Dapeng rises with the wind one day", to the indignation of discovering that the person in power is mediocre and letting him enter Beijing just to write poems for Yang Guifei, to the story of the Anshi Rebellion that took the initiative to leave Beijing.
According to history, Li Bai spent his youth touring the mountains and rivers, and it was already a middle-aged thing when he entered Beijing. But because this is just a movie, Zhang Hai still chose a young man to play Li Bai.
A young poet in white can attract the audience's attention even more.
Of course, when the time comes to wear the wig of ancient times, the age will not be too obvious.
Hong Chen used the skill "Script Understanding" to search for the adapted script of Li Bai's life in parallel time and space, but the system told him that there was no movie of Li Bai in the parallel world.
"There are no related films, but it doesn't affect either. Hong Chen thought secretly in his heart.
The next day, the film was turned on, and the first act was his role.
filmed the scene where Li Bai entered Beijing to meet the emperor.
The crew of the crew arranged it for a long time, because this shot is crucial.
Everyone was a little nervous, and their eyes looked at Zhang Hai in unison. Zhang Hai nodded, and a field attendant held a filming board and shouted: "Attention to each group!"
For a while, all the staff of the crew entered the state. The photographer adjusts the camera, the lighting team controls the lighting, and the prop team controls the crane camera to look down in the air.
"Li Bai, the first paragraph, the first scene, action!"
The filming board is closed, and the filming officially begins.
The picture appears to be the red palace wall of the Tang Imperial Palace.
I saw two eunuchs walking respectfully in front, behind was a civil official, responsible for leading the way, and then behind was Hong Chen, who played Li Bai!
Li Bai entered the capital to face the saint!
I saw him wearing a white shirt, smiling, and calm. Although there are no words, it gives people a feeling of floating fairy.
is worthy of being a carefully selected actor, and the temperament of this literati and ink artist makes the crew secretly praise.
"Oh my God, this temperament is so good. ”
"It's really a bit of an immortal. ”
"Is it the blessing of appearance? No, I've seen other little fresh meat play ancient costumes, but I don't feel this way at all. ”
"It's really handsome. ”
Zhang Hai is behind the camera, his eyes glued to the camera.
This picture is beautiful.
The Tang Imperial Palace is already majestic, the doors and pillars are a deep crimson color, and a variety of decorations can be seen in the picture, such as stone lions, stone platforms, and the eaves and tiles are brand new and spotless.
And in such a background, Hong Chen, who is dressed in white, stands out.
Yan Yileng is also in the crew, she has a scene today, so let's take a look in advance.
After seeing Hong Chen's performance, her eyes also lit up.
In this way, several groups of scenes were filmed in Beijing, from outside the palace to the imperial study.
Then, Hong Chen faced the saint, Tang Xuanzong descended to greet him personally, followed by the scene of a long conversation between the two, Tang Xuanzong personally picked the soup for him and asked him about the world.
But seeing that Li Bai was confident, his answers were like a stream, and even in the face of the current emperor, there was not the slightest cowardice in his expression. In this regard, Tang Xuanzong praised it and ordered him to worship Hanlin.
The so-called worship of Hanlin is just a civil official who writes poems and entertains the emperor. At this time, it can be seen that there is obviously a bit of astonishment and loss in Li Bai's eyes.
He has the talent of the heavens and the earth, but the emperor only likes his poems!
What he wants is to govern the country and secure the country, and to strategize, but he doesn't have any real power at all!
Leaving the palace, Hong Chen returned to the courtyard, lay on a rocking chair, and was very drunk.
Then he started laughing.
The heroism of drunkenness, the contempt for those in power, the indignation that ambitions cannot be fulfilled, are all in this laughter!
There are no lines, but the people in the crew can clearly feel the emotions contained in the laughter, and feel the loss of the eternal poet who has never met with talent.
Hong Chen once again conquered the entire crew with his acting skills.
