In the evening, Lin Qirong met with the main person in charge of the crew.

Everyone is an acquaintance, and they all understand Lin Qirong's various requirements for the crew, and there is no big problem.

He Yijun's assistant director is also an experienced director, named Deng Yuanqing, a bearded middle-aged man, who is more like a director than He Yijun.

However, although his image is rough, he is actually a very careful kind of person, and he is also willing to assist He Yijun in completing the filming of this TV series.

In addition, two experienced directors joined the team, and they needed to assist Ho Yijun in completing various tasks to ensure that the filming of the crew went smoothly.

For example, talking to the actors, communicating with the technicians, arranging extras, etc., are all very important roles.

Lin Qirong once again emphasized the discipline of the crew, which has been verified in the previous crews and can have a good effect.

Everyone has also become accustomed to Lin Qirong's request, and there is no big problem.

And although the requirements are high, the dividends and bonuses of the crew are also high, and everyone is happy.

With Lin Qirong in charge, the crew has become more united and the cohesion has been further enhanced, which can ensure that He Yijun can shoot more efficiently when directing.

Sending off the heads of various positions in the crew, Lin Qirong met with several main actors in this play.

This play is completely different from the previous play, and the actors have all been changed, all of them are actors selected according to Lin Qirong's requirements, including actors from Shengshi Entertainment.

Among them, the most distinctive are the two middle-aged men on the left and the right, which are in stark contrast.

One is an old face, with a smile piled under thick folds, but there is a trace of firmness and persistence in his eyes.

Although he looks like a hanger on the surface, I believe that he will not be ambiguous at the critical moment.

The other is made straight, like a pine tree, with a straight temperament.

Several other actors also have their own characteristics, all of which have any image, but none of them are young and handsome or beautiful.

"It seems that Mr. Li and Mr. Tang have thoroughly read the script, and now sitting and lying are all the feelings of this character. Lin Qirong and the two middle-aged men laughed.

The actor known as Mr. Li smiled bitterly, "When I first got the script, I was scared, aren't the protagonists of anti-Japanese dramas all tall?

Originally, I thought that I could play a wise and martial role this time, just like the one opposite, who looked like a soldier. ”

"And what about the end?" said Lin Qirong with a smile.

"After reading the script, I realized that this character is much more difficult to serve than the character opposite, and it is also a big challenge for me.

To be honest, if you don't let me play this role today, I won't be happy, even if I am paid a little less, I will play it, otherwise I will not leave here. ”

This last sentence has the charm of this character, and I hope Mr. Li will continue to maintain it. Lin Qirong said with a smile, "Since you have found Mr. Li, how can you be disappointed? This role must be yours, but the requirements are higher, and you may offend the teacher during filming, I hope you will bear with me when the time comes." ”

Mr. Li said indifferently, "The director has the final say in the crew, if you think the shooting is not good, just tell me, I'll just reshoot, it's not a big deal." ”

"Thank you then. Lin Qirong turned to the man on the left, "Teacher Tang, how do you feel?"

"It felt unique. Mr. Tang sat straight and said, "I am very surprised by the plot you wrote the screenplay, but this is the real history of the Anti-Japanese War, and I like your portrayal of this character."

They are brothers in the family, and it's normal to have trouble fighting for family property, and it's also very interesting for you to beat me up and fight for wits and courage.

But being able to be unanimous with the outside world at a critical moment is very well written, and this army has paid a great price in history. ”

"I know. Lin Qirong nodded and said, "It seems that Mr. Tang also has a deep understanding of this role."

For that period of anti-Japanese war history, we can't judge by the divine drama we usually see, but should carry out artistic processing moderately while respecting history, which is the origin of this script.

Why did I create two very different characters? It's simple, because that's what history was like.

It is not unreasonable for the national army to call us bandits, because most of the soldiers are from poor backgrounds and have low education, even high-ranking generals.

Moreover, the equipment and training are insufficient, so they can only persist with a ruthless force and find a way to win one victory after another.

So the image of Mr. Li will be like this.

In this case, it is even more precious that this spirit is precious.

The national army is different, it has a systematic system, and senior officers are cultivated step by step, especially for the role of you.

If Mr. Tang, the image of the elite of the national army and the backbone of the Anti-Japanese War is portrayed as the image of a bandit, then it is completely inconsistent with the facts.

This is also a true portrayal of the two armies of that period, in the end it was the unequipped but spirited army that won, and the well-equipped but soulless army that lost. ”

"So, is this the spirit you are talking about?" said Mr. Li.

Lin Qirong nodded seriously, "That's right, the biggest highlight of this drama is this spirit, which I call the Bright Sword Spirit." ”

Teacher Li said excitedly, "That's right, what I like most about this drama is the spirit you mentioned, and you can see this spirit in all plots."

Li Yunlong, Chu Yunfei fighting, and fighting with devils, all relied on a spirit of not being afraid of heaven and earth, and they were able to win again and again.

Li Yunlong's lecture to the Independent Regiment and the plot of the cavalry company's charge really made me cry, and it was the first time I had seen such a touching script of the Anti-Japanese War, so I didn't hesitate to go on.

To be able to write such a script, you are really extraordinary. ”

"Thanks, I just wish I could tell that history better.

During that period of the history of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the enemy's equipment was better than ours, not to mention aircraft and artillery, all kinds of mortars, grenadiers, and machine guns that we could not contend with, not to mention logistical support.

The enemy's military quality is also much stronger than ours, the soldiers are all strictly trained, the generals are all graduates of military academies, and they have extremely high military qualities; they are not the slightest blow of the button in the drama, and they are weak and can't help the wind, on the contrary, the enemy is very difficult, cunning, and fierce in combat.

Most of our soldiers were peasants and workers, and the generals had also grown up on the battlefield, and there was nothing to compare with the enemy.

But why were we able to achieve the final victory? In addition to the geographical advantages, people, and other factors, I think the most important thing is a kind of spirit, and if the enemy is ruthless, I must be more ruthless than the enemy, and I will fight to save the capital of one and the spirit of making two earns.

Behind it is the motherland and the people, there is no way to retreat, but to face head-on, to fight against everyone, desperately count one by one, this spirit I call the spirit of the bright sword.

Naturally, I am not worried about the acting skills of several teachers, but I hope that when the teachers are filming, they will think more about how to express this spirit, which is the most important thing. ”

The actors present were all in deep thought, they all got the script called "Bright Sword", they all liked the plot in it, and felt that it was indeed a good script.

But the ethereal spirit that Lin Qirong put forward is really too difficult to figure out, and it is a great test for everyone.

"No matter. Teacher Li patted the table and said, "Let's shoot first, Director Lin asks you to take a good look, if I don't act well, you will stop and criticize me fiercely until I get the effect you want." ”

"As long as Mr. Li doesn't mind, we will definitely do it. Lin Qirong said with a smile, "There are a lot of anti-Japanese war dramas in China now, but there are not many that can enter everyone's eyes, either all kinds of magical operations or the plot is seriously inconsistent with history, in fact, there is a huge market here."

In other words, the market needs to have an anti-Japanese war drama that can truly reflect the years of the Anti-Japanese War and move everyone.

I hope this TV series can be such a work, and I hope everyone will work hard for it. ”

"That's for sure. Teacher Li, Teacher Tang and others have expressed their attitudes, they are also here for this purpose, and everyone's goal is actually the same.

The key depends on the specific shooting situation.

After the actors left, Lin Qirong rubbed his eyebrows a little tiredly.

He Yijun said gratefully, "Thank you." ”

"A brother, what's polite?" Lin Qirong smiled, "It should be smoothed out now, right?"

He Yijun nodded, "No problem, I'm sure." ”

"That's good. Lin Qirong said happily, "I will stay in the crew for a while, but I won't interfere with your shooting, you can shoot according to your ideas, don't care about me."

In this crew, you are the director, you are the biggest, whoever is not convinced will deal with whom, even if it is a few veteran actors, if they dare to jump, we dare to drive him out or even ban him, we don't bully the actors, but we won't follow them in everything.

You can also communicate with them more privately and listen to their opinions on how to perform more effectively, but you must have your own ideas, there is no room for two tigers on the set. ”

He Yijun pondered for a while before nodding slowly, "I know, this is what I will focus on in my next work."

It's not easy to be a director. ”

"That's for sure. Lin Qirong patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "But it is a very rewarding thing to be able to let everyone shoot the content they want according to their own will." ”

"Hmm. ”

He Yijun smiled slightly, he still remembered that when he was in college, the three of them often discussed the script while drinking together, pointing out the country and scolding Fang Xuan, dreaming of making the work he wanted.

Now that he is finally standing at the starting point of his dream, how can he not work hard?
