Chapter 268: A Movie That Was Finished in One Afternoon?
"No, you can't use it for a day?" it costs only a pack of cigarettes?" Liu Mang felt that Fang Bei was being funny, "Old Fang, you can tease me!"
If he were a layman, he would be fooled, but he is also a director, how can this kind of thing be done?
This is making a movie, not a small movie.
Even a small movie can't do it!
In fact, Fang Bei also blew it into the big one, and he also followed his friends to shoot micro-movies in his previous life.
At that time, it took more than five hours to shoot just four shots, and that was still not too demanding.
There is only one way that this whole movie can be made in one day.
No one could go wrong!
From the cast to the crew, you can't go wrong!
But is it possible?
Theoretically possible.
Especially the movie that Fang Bei was going to make.
In fact, he also forgot the specific plot of the movie, after all, the movie was not released in China at all.
Not many people even know about this movie on the Internet.
Danish films, who has seen them?
Even Fang Bei's biggest impression of Denmark is that the blonde girls there have long legs, are tall and beautiful, and many people play badminton well.
How did Fang Bei see this movie?
In his previous life, he chatted with his friends about movies, and then everyone talked about the acting skills of the actors.
Essentially, it's a regular brag session, similar to all sorts of nonsense, and then the subject matter changes all the time.
At that time, I talked about how to decide whether an actor's acting skills are good or not.
Don't remember that at that time, there were UP masters on AB station who did similar videos like "How bad can a person's acting skills be".
Then they just watched and complained.
Later, I talked about the kind of "one-man movie".
It's not that there is only one person in the movie, but that most of the time, or almost all of the time, there is only one protagonist in the movie.
In this kind of situation where no one is playing, there are many actors with good acting skills.
Then they began to compare which of the main characters in similar movies played the best.
For example, "I Am Legend", "Buried Alive" and the like.
Then someone said about the Danish film "The Sinner".
Because this movie was not released in China, it took a lot of time for Fang Bei to find out the sinicization resources of this movie after he went back.
To be honest, he was really impressed at the time.
Now the specific details can only recall a few reversals, but he still remembers the general plot flow.
The movie seems to be about a police operator.
A criminal police officer was demoted to the position of police operator for the accidental killing of a civilian.
However, it seems that he will be able to finish the investigation and return to the criminal police post the next day, and this whole movie is what happened after he received a call to the police on the last night.
That's right, all the pictures are in this small room, and the actor is basically the protagonist, and the others are all soy sauce.
All the plots rely on the dialogue on the phone, as well as the protagonist's brain.
All the scenes in the movie are done by the protagonist wearing a headset on the computer.
Don't remember that it seems to be like that.
Then this is a coincidence, friends, Fang Bei happens to be the director of the Spring Festival Gala, and this happens to be the CCTV studio building!
Is it hard to find a house like this?
As a director, is it difficult to borrow the equipment here?
This is the CCTV Broadcasting Building, is it difficult to find a few words that are round and emotional?
Of course, it's not difficult at all!
Acting?
If the acting skills of this old actor are really as blown by the two kings, there is basically no problem.
So what's so hard about it?
Taking advantage of the fact that the eldest lady went directly to the studio hall, Fang Bei took out the first cigarette of the day and lit it, and then lit up the unopened Furong King in his hand: "Just this pack of cigarettes, today and today, I can get this movie for you!"
Liu Mang questioned: "Lao Fang, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that it's a little child's play." ”
He glanced at the other three and continued, "I'm not talking badly, and what I make up like this is detrimental to your own reputation. ”
Yes, he's speaking from a different point of view.
And this was also said to Fang Mingyuan and the others.
He actually understood why Fang Bei said this!
That is, Fang Don't plan to make this movie at all!
But Fang Bei was embarrassed to refuse directly, so he deliberately said this and then implied that he stood up and became a villain!
Liu Mang understands in seconds.
Anyway, it's not a normal operation to carry the pot for his brother, he Liu Mang carried this pot!
"Forget it, Lao Fang, there's really no need for this, you still have to take care of the Spring Festival Gala, how can you have this time? Don't forget that you also have two or three movies to do after the New Year. ”
He said this as if he didn't want to say it to the other party, but in fact, it was said that the three people listened.
Look, don't be so busy now, there are still movies to be made in the future, and I have no relatives and no reason with you, why should I help you?
Even if you talk about favors, now you Yellen still owe Fang other favors!
"Blue and White Porcelain" is only worth hundreds of thousands?
Don't be afraid of jokes when you say it! That's a friendship price!
The three of them also knew this, so Yellen didn't say anything.
Lin Qingjie, who had been silent, wanted to say something, but Fang Mingyuan stood up first.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Director Fang, I'm really sorry, I was abrupt, I'll invite you to dinner another day to apologize." You're going to be busy with rehearsals later, so I won't bother you yet. ”
With a bow, he was about to leave.
It's polite to eat or something, now he lives in a friend's house, how can he have the money to invite others to dinner.
A few dollars of rice noodles is fine.
"There's no rush to eat, it's okay if I invite you in the evening after the movie is filmed. Fang Bei stopped him with a smile, "If you perform well, you can finish filming this afternoon." ”
Although the time in the original movie is at night, Fang Bei can't remember whether the original movie has an outdoor shot.
Anyway, he doesn't have an outdoor lens here, and when the curtain is drawn, it's over.
Liu Mang was shocked: "Lao Fang! do you really want to shoot?!"
Don't you dare to suggest that I come out to be a bad person?
Fang Mingyuan also stopped and looked at Fang Bei in amazement.
"That's not nonsense. "Don't be happy, "Speaking of which, Brother Fang, you are also my family, and it is nothing for those gangs to help you, and it doesn't take much time." But now there's a problem. ”
Fang Mingyuan directly held his hand and said excitedly: "If there is any problem, you can say it! I can do it!"
Of course, there is still a need to consider the issue of principle.
Like that and that.
That's definitely not going to work!
"It's fine, it's just two things. Fang Bei shook off his hand without a trace, and then raised his fingers, "First, Brother Fang, do you have a contracted company?"
Fang Mingyuan immediately understood: "Not yet, I can sign any company at any time!"
"OK, that's the only question left. Fang Bei stuffed the bag of Hibiscus King into his hand, "Can you smoke?"
"Yes. Fang Mingyuan nodded, "Do you want to smoke one now?"
"No, no, no, it's a prop. Fang Bei patted him on the shoulder, "Keep it for when filming later." ”
Then he turned around and instructed Liu Mang: "Call Nie Fang and them, and then go to the studio to borrow two cameras, as well as radio equipment and lights." Let's get started. ”
Then Fang Bei went out and called a staff member and asked him to help find an office similar to the customer service operator.
After that, he called Liu Mang again and asked him to borrow a few props and costumes, which were police uniforms. Then find a few prop stickers for police logos and props for the small police dispatch console (just props, large dispatch consoles don't have that condition).
Twenty minutes later, a group of people were standing in a room that resembled an office area.
The room is cramped, with each workstation resembling a cubicle, and a computer and a landline phone on the desk.
Nie Fang, who had plugged in the camera cable, looked back at a few people who were adjusting the lighting, and then asked: "Director Fang, are we going to shoot a micro movie or a short Weibo promotional video for the Spring Festival Gala?"
"Didn't Liu Mang tell you?" Fang Bei glared at Liu Mang, and then explained, "Let's make a movie." ”
Liu Mang didn't speak, he was embarrassed to say.
Make a movie...... If it weren't for Fang Bei's serious appearance, Nie Fang would have thought that he was teasing everyone: "Director Fang, are you serious?"
"That must be serious. Fang Bei clapped his hands, "I just came here today to rest, I'm embarrassed to use everyone's rest time, let Liu Mang invite everyone to dinner in the evening!"
Liu Mang: "......"
Why are you making a fuss and why do you want me to treat you?
Dare to love this is not included in the budget?
So why is 25 yuan worth of cigarettes in the budget?
Liu Mang fell into deep thought.
Nie Fang, they were really serious when they saw Fang Bei, so they didn't say anything.
Anyway, you're the boss, you have the final say.
A few minutes later, Fang Mingyuan, dressed as a policeman, walked out.
I have to say that this middle-aged man is still a little handsome, but he wears a heroic feeling.
But that's not what you want.
What he wants is the feeling that Duan Yihong has in "Master of Memory" and "Scorching Sun".
So he made a request: "Brother Fang, the movements and eyes are not right. Don't be so straight, relax a little more naturally. And the eyes, a little softer, you're going to play a very complicated role. It is to have a great sense of justice on the surface, but the feeling that something is hidden in the heart. Yes, yes, that's what it feels like!"
is worthy of being the winner of the Venice actor! Fang Bei said it a little, and he showed that meaning.
Smack——!
Fang Bei snapped his fingers, and after everyone looked at it, he smiled and said: "I'll start talking about the plot now, and then I don't need to say it, everyone is professional, just play freely, let's try to get it done in the afternoon, and we won't delay dinner in the evening." ”
