Chapter 243: Good as Water

The hardest thing about acting is the sense of proportion!

Especially acting in life!

Is it the role that you play?

Or yourself?

The next day, I came to the office and saw the legendary Sammo Hung and Tsui Hark, as well as Bona Yu Fat.

is worthy of Liu Tianwang, the two of them will make a cameo with a phone call, the identity of the protagonist is a well-known producer, solving various problems, this scene is to show the plot of usual work.

"The budget is over, you say you want to do this!"

"What else can I do? What can I do?"

"I said a long time ago that I wouldn't let you use so many shots and stunts, and now the audience is tired of watching it, what's the use......"

"I'm the director, are you the director?"

Ding Cheng saw that the two bigwigs wanted to scold the street, so he hurriedly played a round in the middle, and all kinds of reasoning and truth were finally done, and he was tired and sweaty.

Finally, he pulled Yu Fatzi to the side and said in a low voice: "Do you think you want to invest more?"

As soon as the camera turned, at the dinner table, he talked about wine with the two big guys who were still blushing and thick-necked just now, raised his wine glass and saluted Sammo Hung and said, "Your play is getting better and better." ”

"No, no, it's still the truth of Old Monster Xu's acting. ”

"Hey, it's not easy to be a director!"

Xu Laowei took the opportunity to complain: "Making a movie is the same as having a child, there is no money, no strength, and what is born is a cyborg person." ”

Ding Cheng patted the other party on the shoulder and explained: "We all understand, in short, is it good to live within your means?"

"Come, drink!"

After a scene, leave the contact information of the two bigwigs and look for opportunities to cooperate.

The next plot is that Sister Tao suddenly fainted, and when she was sent to the hospital, she found out that she had Alzheimer's disease, which was no longer suitable for living alone for a long time, and she had to be accompanied by someone.

"Well, there are many people in the nursing home to play with me......"

"You can go to see me often......"

"A cat also brought over, rest assured!"

Sister Tao held her hand, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, her eyes seemed calm, but in fact, there was helplessness behind it, and even some self-blame.

took care of the young master's family for sixty years,

Now I finally can't do it,

Actually let the family take care of themselves?

Then I ran all over the nursing home, more than 10,000 yuan expensive, and four or five thousand cheap, money is not a problem, the main thing is to be close to home.

The scene selection directly requisitioned the home of the prototype character, the room where Sister Tao lived in reality, the wooden box used, the vegetable field she walked through, and the sofa and dining table where she often sit......

There was almost half a month of filming in the old people's home, which was basically hidden cameras, and many elderly people did not know that there was a crew there to shoot a movie, and tried their best to disturb the lives of the old people as little as possible.

"This is the most leisurely group I've ever seen!" At lunchtime, Ding Cheng smiled and said to Xu Anhua: "Filming starts at 9 o'clock in the morning and finishes at 17 o'clock in the evening, all the people shoot together, and there are only two machines ...... before and after."

Xu Anhua said helplessly: "It's also disturbing to communicate and tell them how to act, and I'm also very embarrassed." ”

Everyone laughed, there was a scene to be filmed the day before yesterday, and volunteers brought pet dogs to visit the elderly, even if it was a scene that required more extras.

Most of them are acting in their true colors, and there are eight people who are specially from the old people's troupe, bringing their dogs to play, and the vast majority of the old people really visit as a normal festival.

All films, whether commercial or artistic, like to exaggerate, exalt, distort, and deform, with the aim of shocking the audience.

And Xu Anhua is always doing subtraction, and one of the details that impressed Ding Cheng the most: some waiters helped the elderly take a bath, and one old man couldn't stand up to wash and had to sit......

There are no muscles at all, the skin of the calf wraps around the calf bone, and others help him to rub alcohol......

Stirring!

"You have to be a little more relaxed......"

"Yes, it's this feeling that makes the character's human nature fully exposed and full of human flavor......"

"What does it feel like to come home, isn't it just to relax, take off your mask, and be free......"

Ding Cheng constantly softens himself, is a powerful producer outside, and talks and laughs in front of the media.

When I got home, I was exhausted, and I could only show my true self in front of Sister Tao.

There is no need to be nervous, you can reach out with tea, open your mouth with rice, you can think about your heart, you can shout that you want to eat beef tongue, you can be at a loss......

Experience the ordinary life of the breeze and the water waves, like the breeze blowing in the life performance, feel the feelings of the years, how the years pass, how the wind blows......

For example, in the play of beef tongue, I found it in the refrigerator after many days, and Sister Tao, who was hard-mouthed and didn't let herself eat beef tongue, had actually been quietly marinated in a pot, and it was discovered by the fox group and the dog party......

Huang Qiusheng is not only the owner of the old people's home, but also the helper of the old house, and the free interaction and friendship of old friends are just like the usual idle life......

When Sister Tao was afraid of dragging herself down, she took the initiative to say that she wanted to live in a nursing home......

When Sister Tao turned out the things she kept for a lifetime and chattered about it......

When he was walking on the road with Sister Tao in his hands......

When Sister Tao felt that dentures were expensive and was angry and didn't want to spend them herself......

calmly shows a very ordinary thing through the lens without overly embellishment, just like expressing something that has nothing to do with her, but poking at the bottom of people's hearts in small details.

When Sister Tao went home for the first time after being hospitalized, she was reluctant to leave......

When Sister Tao knew that Qin Pei was looking for a shampoo girl and said that she would go, she would go, and how long could she go to give him money......

When Sister Tao knew that time was running out, she still smiled and amused herself......

When she pushed Sister Tao to sweat profusely, she shook half of her body and said that it was hot, and I want to eat cold powder......

All the small scenes are what happened to ordinary people, and the empathy and gestures are so intimate and familiar.

Sister Tao's figure all evokes the audience's memories of the elderly, afraid of troublesome children, endlessly good to children and grandchildren, and takes care of the children meticulously......

And what about themselves?

When I was young, we held hands together and walked after dinner in the summer, and always secretly gave her some precious things to keep ......

When they sleep together in winter, they always put their cold feet on their legs, and they are reluctant to take their feet off when they hiss......

I am afraid that my children will be impatient, and I never say anything when I am sick, and I will never ask for ......

Suddenly, one day I found that they had always walked vigorously, and they didn't know when they were barely walking with crutches!
