"Feng Shao, you wrote the script, and you did the work of the actors' guidance, and I have read the script more than once, Mizugen plays a vital role in the whole play, and he must not be sloppy.

Even if you look for those big-name actors, they may not be able to get into the state in a short time. Speaking of this, Ning Hao paused, took a deep breath, and continued:

"Actually, you forgot one thing, you are also an actor, and your acting skills are no worse than anyone else. You also have a lot of fans, if it is a movie you film, they will definitely come to watch it, and the effect may not be worse than those people.

And your comprehension of the script is far beyond that of us people, so it is perfect to play the character of Mizune.

Of course, there is a more important point, if you play Shuigen, we don't have to pay for it. ”

"I'm going to play Shuigen?" Qin Feng was stunned, he didn't think about acting by himself, he just wanted to use a small-cost drama to coach his hands first.

"Yes, you just finished acting in a play, and you will continue to play another one while the iron is hot, showing a different side to everyone, it will definitely be very popular. "Ning Hao.

Ang Lee said: "Ning Hao is right, with your popularity, it can indeed bring huge attention to this drama, and it will also be of great help to our later sales." ”

"Yes, if you can get some wind out before you start filming, maybe a TV station will come to you before filming starts. Ning Hao continued.

And the reason why Ang Lee followed and persuaded Qin Feng to play the role of Shuigen was actually more from the perspective of the studio.

What Ang Lee saw was Qin Feng's huge popularity, which would bring some unexpected gains to the entire crew.

Similarly, as long as someone buys the film, even if it is at a loss, it is a very important breakthrough for them.

Try to control the cost as much as possible, in Ang Lee's opinion, it is to reduce losses, obviously, Ang Lee feels that Qin Feng does not have much confidence in this drama, and does not think that it will be profitable.

But once Qin Feng participates, the result may change dramatically. More than 10 million albums have been sold, even if only five million, or three million people have watched the show, it has been a success for them.

"Okay, I'll play Mizugen. After thinking about it again, Qin Feng still nodded in agreement.

First of all, there is no doubt that being popular with yourself will definitely help this drama.

Secondly, as an actor director, it will be easier for you to coach other actors if you get involved.

The above two reasons prompted Qin Feng to agree to play the role of Shuigen, which is nothing more than a slower filming schedule and more costs.

But no matter how slow it is, as long as there are no major accidents in between, there is no problem in completing the shooting in three or four months.

However, the fastest production is still in Xiangjiang, which can be said to be fast, with an average of two episodes being filmed as fast as a day, and a 30-episode TV series can basically be completed in a month.

Although Qin Feng can't catch up with this speed in a short period of time, and it is impossible to catch up, the future goal is still to develop in this direction.

After deciding to play the role of Shuigen, Ning Hao told Qin Feng some details.

Now that the venue has been set up and the equipment has been booked, it can be done in one day, and the day after tomorrow is an auspicious day to start the machine.

In addition, Qin Feng also wanted to start filming as soon as possible, so he agreed to Ning Hao's proposal, and everything was done today and tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow was officially launched.

Afterwards, Ning Hao ran to inform the actors and crew, as well as arrange some other things.

Since leaving Qin Feng's office, Ning Hao has not been idle for a moment, first contacting the crew, and then going to notify the actors who were selected by Qin Feng.

Because they are all extras, there is no schedule problem, and they are on call.

After some professionals from the crew came to the studio, Ning Hao took them to the equipment rental company non-stop to select those machines and equipment that were in good condition.

After doing this, Ning Hao went to arrange the things needed for the boot ceremony. However, because it is a low-cost production, Ning Hao does not pay much attention to this aspect, red cloth, firecrackers, banners, live chickens, as for pigs, Ning Hao did not let people prepare.

For a whole day the next day, Qin Feng went to talk to the eleven actors in the conference room.

I didn't talk about it before because I was afraid that they would forget, and the content on the script was basically composed of lines, and during this time, these actors mainly memorized lines, and when they waited until a day or two before filming, Qin Feng went to tell them some key points.

However, Qin Feng didn't say much, but only talked about the content of the first episode, and the actors also took pens to add notes to their scripts, no matter how they wrote, anyway, they just wrote down the meaning they understood, and did as much as possible according to Qin Feng's requirements.

The next afternoon, in the shooting base on the outskirts of Beijing.

The actors and crew came to the scene early, and today is the opening ceremony, and everyone is going to appear here.

Of course, in addition to work, that is, you can also get a boot red envelope.

There is no amount of money in the red envelope, as little as one or two hundred, and as much as one or two thousand. But since there is money to take, no one will not be unhappy to ask for it.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Ning Hao played the role of the host, and asked Qin Feng, an investor, to speak on stage first, and then speak on stage as a director, and then each department sent a representative to speak.

At about six o'clock, the speech process was completed.

Although this step made Qin Feng feel very bored, at least it made him see the enthusiasm of the crew members and the excitement of the actors.

This was followed by the killing of chickens and the removal of red cloths, and then each department was in place and performed its own duties.

In the first scene of "Underground Transportation Station", Black Vine buys fruits.

"3, 2, 1" 'Click!' The board playing staff held a board in their hands, and after shouting 321 in front of the camera, they skillfully fired the board.

The head of the intelligence agency of the island country, Kurotto Guisan, walked leisurely on the street, came to a fruit stall, grabbed a handful of jujubes, and opened his mouth to say: "When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky!"

An ancient poem was blurted out by Kuroti Kizo, but there was some unique taste in the tone, but Kuroti Kizo felt good about himself, smiled slightly, and continued: "Is this delicious?"

"Report Taijun, it's not delicious!" replied Lizheng, a fruit vendor improvised by a field attendant.

"Huh?" Kuroto Kizo wondered.

"I mean, this is delicious for us, but it may not be delicious for you. The vendor replied.

"Well, that makes sense!" Hei Teng Guisan looked relieved, as if he had found the truth, and then carefully put the jujube back in its place, poked his head forward, and continued to ask: "Shopkeeper, let me ask you." How do you know I'm here, Taijun?"

"How famous you are, don't say you wear a robe, you just don't wear anything, I know you. "Little vendors.

"Well, how much is this a pound. Kuroto asked, pointing to the apple.

"Ouch, how dare I ask Taijun for money? You take what you eat, take, take away, other Taijun are like this, take away. "Little vendors.

"No!no!I want to give money!" Kurotam Kizo made a gesture to resist, and reached into his arms to take out the money.

"Click!" The first shot was successfully filmed, except for the actors' expressions and movements, which were a little inadequate, and they looked a little awkward, there were no major problems.

Qin Feng shouted loudly, and then continued to shout: "Okay, it's a good shot, that's all for today, all departments will put the equipment away and put it in the warehouse."

In addition, let me tell you, the crew has booked a start-up banquet in the hotel, and after putting away the things, everyone will gather, and those who have a car will go to Ning Hao to report the number first. ”

After eating the banquet, this start-up ceremony can be regarded as the real completion.

As for the shot just shot, it will not be used under normal circumstances, no matter which crew, the shot shot at the start-up ceremony will not be used, this is just an auspicious picture.

The actor has just arrived in the crew and has not yet put into the work, which is the same everywhere.

So there were some things that were not very satisfied, Qin Feng did not shout to stop, but kept communicating with the actors with some facial expressions and so on.

This play is a sitcom, and there are only a few actors going back and forth, which is different from those large-scale outdoor scenes.

Therefore, the characteristics of the character must also be shown, so that people can see at a glance whether the person is a good person or a bad person.

After a dinner party, all but a few others returned to the filming base.

Filming will officially start tomorrow, and all the crew and actors are also living in the filming base.

Although it is only a simple house, it is still clean, and the weather is close to May, and it is not hot.

……

"Click!" Qin Feng shouted loudly, then stood up from the director's machine, walked to the actor's side, and explained, "Zhang Shan, you can laugh and show me now." ”

"Haha!" Zhang Shan, who played Feng Shichang, laughed.

"It's too fake, smile a little more naturally. Qin Feng corrected.

"Haha!" Zhang Shan adjusted and continued to laugh.

"This time the laughter is quite natural, but the sound and movement are not enough, so you can increase the sound a little bit according to the amplitude of your usual laughter, and the movements are more casual, not too exaggerated. Qin Feng continued.

"Haha!" Zhang Shan continued to laugh after adjusting again.

'Papapa~~~' Qin Feng applauded, he was finally satisfied with Qiao Shan's smile, this is the first shot, it has been an hour since it was filmed, and the worst thing is that the first shot has not been completed yet.

The actors are either this or that, and there are not even extras played by the crew to get started quickly.

But there is no way, the actors are personally selected. Although the skills are a lot worse, I have to say that it is really good in terms of image.

"Okay, each department is in place, let's do it again. Seeing Qin Feng return to the position of the director, Ning Hao, the assistant director who was following on the side, immediately commanded.

The shooting task continued, and with Qin Feng's personal guidance and training, Zhang Shan's acting skills have been greatly improved, except for a few mistakes and reshoots a few times, the first shot was finally successfully completed.

It's normal to make a mistake in shooting, and no one loses their temper because of it.

Of course, if you miss a shot seven or eight times or even a dozen times and don't finish it, then maybe someone will really lose your temper with you.

With the shooting experience of the first day, the frequency of Qin Feng's shouting on the second day has obviously increased a lot, but by the time the second day is over, the number of films that Qin Feng is satisfied with has reached five.

Although the filming progress is still as slow as a turtle, it is still much faster than the previous day.

But Qin Feng was obviously still not satisfied with this situation, and after finishing work in the evening, he continued to gather all the actors together and kept talking about the problems that occurred during the filming that day.

In the end, Qin Feng had to take this opportunity to tell everyone the trick again, after all, it was the first play he directed, even if the results were not good, but at least he had to pass above the passing line in all aspects.

The progress of filming has increased every day, and it is already the fifth day after the official filming of the first episode is completed.

It took five days to shoot a TV episode, which is slow enough even compared to the supposedly well-made Korean dramas.

Korean dramas basically release one or two episodes a week, but in terms of filming, an episode is only two to three days at most, and most of the time is spent on post-editing.

And Qin Feng here, five days has only just finished filming an episode.

It is not easy to sell a TV series without a finished product, and if it is a big-name director, it is needless to say that the TV station will come to the door to buy the premiere rights.

But for other small directors and small companies, all they can do is shoot a few episodes first, and then send them to the TV station's review office for review to see if they have bought the premiere rights.

If there is, the price is negotiated, and the TV series continues to be filmed. If not, then the drama may not continue to be filmed, although this rarely happens, but it does not happen.

So, with a wave of his hand, Qin Feng directly moved the office location of post-editing production to the shooting base, filming during the day and post-production at night, so as to have more time to operate.

On this day, Liu Yang also came to visit the class, and then said to Qin Feng: "I have good news for you. ”

If Liu Yang can say this, it will definitely not be insignificant.

"I just had a meal with my colleagues in Taili and got a very important piece of news. Liu Yang sold Guan Zidao.

"What's the news?" Qin Feng said suspiciously, Liu Yang, as the deputy director of Beijing Satellite TV's "I Am a Singer" program group, don't look at his position, but he wears many hats, and he also belongs to the words in Beijing Satellite TV, which is why Hong Yi sold Liu Yang's face and asked Qin Feng to interview.

No, Qin Feng asked Liu Yang to recommend an assistant director before, Liu Yang recommended Ning Hao to him, and he was also very interested in the drama directed by Qin Feng, and after hearing the news today, he came over to tell Qin Feng.

"No, it's not far from the National Day, and a document has been issued on it, so that all TV stations should broadcast more main theme programs one or two months before the National Day, about the Anti-Japanese War and the like.

Although there are many anti-Japanese war films now, most of them have been played many times, and there are almost no new films.

As far as I know, including yours, there are not many anti-Japanese war films currently being made. Liu Yang said.

Qin Feng asked: "This is good news, in this way, I don't have to worry about not being able to sell this sitcom." ”

"Therefore, this drama must not only be filmed, but also filmed to the best. Liu Yang said, and then a few people gathered for a simple meal, and Liu Yang went back.

Liu Yang's arrival did not affect the filming progress of the recording crew, and with the filming day by day, it was time for the filming of the last scene in a blink of an eye.

The crew members were already familiar with it, and everyone quickly got into the mood and started filming...

"Oh, by the way, there's one thing I want to warn you, this big guy Shuigen, you have to watch out. Wang Dazhi, the fat man who played the white translator, suddenly remembered something, turned around and told Captain Shi. Then he continued: "He's a dangerous person. ”

"Well, we've known this for a long time. Captain Shi smiled.

"Huh?" Bai was a little dazed.

"I mean, we've been on guard for a long time. Captain Shi immediately changed his tune.

At this time, Qin Feng, who played Cai Shuigen, pushed open the curtain and entered the house directly, and when he saw Bai Yi getting up to leave, he hurriedly sent him off.

Bai Yiyi, who had been rebelled against a long time ago, didn't know Cai Shuigen's true identity at this time, and the underground transportation station also successfully completed the task arranged by his superiors.

However, in the eyes of Bai Translator, Cai Shuigen is a complete 'big traitor', also known as Adjutant Cai.

"Okay, I'm leaving, be careful. Translator Bai seemed to be explaining something to Shuigen, but in fact he was reminding Captain Shi.

After Translator Bai left, Qin Feng took two steps forward with a smile and said, "Captain Shi, do you think there is anything else that needs to be improved in our underground transportation station?"

At this time, small stones entered the house. After some conversation, the three of them raised their glasses and drank together.

"Click!" Ning Hao shouted loudly.

The script is no longer here, and Ning Hao has suggested to Qin Feng more than once, hoping to add an ending later, such as after the victory or something.

But Qin Feng shook his head and rejected Ning Hao's proposal, but Ning Hao could be regarded as understanding, maybe he was thinking about a sequel.

After Ning Hao shouted, Qin Feng immediately returned to the monitor to take a second look, and then nodded through.

With the completion of this last shot, the underground transportation station was officially completed.

There are almost no shots that need to be reshot, and even if there are, it is the new shots taken today that need to be reshot.

The previously filmed footage has long been made into a finished product, and twenty-six episodes have been produced so far, leaving only the last two episodes filmed yesterday and today that have not yet had time to be produced.

With Qin Feng's finish, the entire crew suddenly became jubilant. Of course, the most excited are undoubtedly the leading actors that Qin Feng is looking for, although the crew members are also happy, but they have been through this kind of scene many times, and they are not as impulsive as those actors who appear on the scene for the first time.

But with my own participation, I completed another work, and I added another stroke to my resume, more or less, and I was still very happy in my heart.

And Qin Feng has also completed his first directorial work, and the next step is to negotiate the broadcast platform...
