Volume 2 The Heart Moves with the Circumstances and Settles Down Chapter 74 It is not easy to perform in a group

The driver that Liu Yuanyuan arranged for Zhang Wei was called Hu Bo, twenty-eight years old, a veteran, and he was a car soldier when he was in the army.

And Zhang Wei's new assistant is called Li Mo, twenty-four years old, with an ordinary appearance, with a pair of black-framed glasses, he looks a little thin, he worked as an assistant to other artists in Hanting after graduating from college, and later after the artist's contract expired, he jumped ship and went to another house, without taking her away, she became an idler, doing logistics or something in the company. This time, because she had experience as an artist assistant, she was selected to be Zhang Wei's assistant. Li Mo's personality is more cheerful, and he greets everyone with a smile, although he looks average, he has strong affinity and coordination skills, and he is also the best candidate for an assistant.

Everyone is meeting for the first time, so naturally they are still relatively unfamiliar, but Zhang Wei's first impression of these two people is good, and I believe that several people will cooperate well in the future.

Two days later, Zhang Wei made rapid progress, and Li Xiaoliang was full of praise, and all this was because Zhang Wei only gave himself four hours of meditation time every day, and the rest of the time, whether it was eating or going to the toilet, either to study "Actor's Self-cultivation", or to read Liu Yuanyuan's "Experience" to study.

On this day, the make-up shot of "A Line of Love, Three Lives" officially began, and the first day's work was a closed green screen to make up for the expression, which is no problem at all now Zhang Wei, although it is just some simple expressions, but Zhang Wei still shows through these subtle expressions to the greatest extent, highlighting the charm of the ancient god of "Di Yuan", a self-sacrificing person.

The next day's work is live shooting, which is after using the first version of the script, plus the drama, a total of six long shots, more than 30 groups of short shots, is expected to be filmed in two days, there is plenty of time, mainly considering Zhang Wei's performance in the audition, Li Xiaoliang had to reserve a little more time.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Wei gave Director Li a surprise, and all the filming was completed in one day. Regarding the efficiency of shooting, some crews can shoot hundreds of short shots a day (it is inconvenient to disclose), and some crews took two or three days to shoot a picture of vomiting blood (Tang Bohu ordered autumn fragrance). This is a helpless thing, and the standards of each director are different.

After filming all the shots of Zhang Wei, Li Xiaoliang was very excited to praise Zhang Wei in front of the whole crew, saying that Zhang Wei is the fastest improved actor since he engaged in film and television work.

For Director Li's praise, Zhang Wei felt that he was ashamed, it was precisely because he had a little understanding of the performance that he clearly realized how much Director Li helped him in just a few days, and at the same time, he also deeply realized how difficult it is for a real actor, especially those unknown group actors.

Celebrities work hard, at least they can gain fame and fortune, but those drifting group performers are gritting their teeth and struggling for an illusory dream, taking the meager income, and living the most undignified. During the filming process in the past few days, Zhang Wei saw with his own eyes a group actor who was scolded by the assistant director for making a small mistake, and the group actor couldn't stop apologizing, you know, the group actor who accompanied the crew to play passerby A for a day can earn fifty yuan. Zhang Wei also saw that for one reason or another, a scene was NG more than a dozen times, a female group actor who played a fallen passerby, Shengsheng knocked her knees blue, and her remuneration was only fifty yuan, and later, under Zhang Wei's questioning, the crew gave her an additional subsidy of thirty yuan, just like this, an assistant director of the crew still said behind his back that Zhang Wei was salty and ate radishes and didn't worry about it, if it weren't for Zhang Wei's deep background, the assistant director dared to scold him directly in the face.

When the crew was chatting, Zhang Wei heard a "big special (the highest-level special actor)" say that being scolded or something is commonplace for the group performances that drift horizontally, and small injuries are commonplace, which is a normal thing. He said that the most bitter time he was playing the "dead corpse", Zhang Wei still felt strange, because the "dead corpse" was almost the easiest one in filming, but when the "big special" explained the situation, he felt more and more that it was not easy for these drifting group performances.

In the winter of the octave Celsius, this "big special" and more than 20 group actors wanted to play the "dead corpse" floating on the river, because of the mistake of the leading actor, this long shot of more than 30 seconds of movement NG 56 times, the director angrily dropped the thermos cup, and the whole crew finally deleted this long shot in desperation, but they jumped into the icy river water again and again to play the "dead corpse" , jumped fifty-six times, each of the more than 20 group performers was numb from the cold, and more than a dozen group performers all had a high fever afterwards, and several of them had slight frostbite, and afterwards, everyone received only a subsidy of 300 yuan. There are countless things like this in Hengden, and it is not a matter of wearing a padded jacket in summer and a vest in winter.

In fact, Zhang Wei also enjoyed this kind of treatment, when filming the location, Zhang Wei wore a dark robe, and only one set of thermal underwear was allowed to be worn inside, otherwise it would look bloated, and it was also thanks to Zhang Wei's strong physique and cold-resistant ability far beyond ordinary people.

After filming all the scenes today, Zhang Wei was also very happy, in order to express his gratitude, Zhang Wei paid for a banquet for all the staff, actors and more than 40 group performers in the crew in the evening, which was a celebration banquet. Zhang Wei asked Li Mo to charter a good restaurant, and there were a lot of big fish and meat, mainly to let those group performers have a good meal, and he now has this ability, if you want to completely improve the situation of group performances, don't say that he can't do it, I'm afraid no one can do it, this is determined by the characteristics of the industry.

It was already more than nine o'clock in the evening after eating, everyone dispersed, Zhang Wei completed a play he participated in for the first time in his life today, and he was a little excited, wandering around alone.

I don't know how long I walked, but I happened to see a place not far ahead, brightly lit, mixed with the roar of a person. Take a closer look, it turns out that a crew is filming a night show, probably due to a mistake by an actor, and the director is angry and scolding. Not far further on, Zhang Wei came to the edge of the crew and saw everything that happened inside.

This crew is filming a costume drama, and now this shot should be filming two soldiers being killed by a hero with a flying knife, but the death of one of the group actors was a bit of a drama for himself, and he was directly expelled from the crew by the director.

While cursing, a person grabbed the collar of the group actor to the periphery of the crew, pushed it hard, pushed the group actor to the ground, and then spat at the mouth, scolding: "Malgobi, Lao Tzu has been the head of the group for three or four years, I haven't seen you such a shabi thing, I don't understand the rules at all, what kind of thing are you, and you dare to add drama to yourself, so that Lao Tzu will be scolded with you, die, don't look for Lao Tzu in the future, or kill you, get out of here!"

This scene happened less than ten meters in front of Zhang Wei's eyes, if this group leader dared to change places, let him scold anyone who was a little bloody like this, it is estimated that this group leader will be beaten even if he is not hospitalized tonight. But here, a group leader is the day of many group performances, few people dare to challenge the majesty of the group leader, if a group performance dares to fight back against the group leader, then he is breaking the rules, and there is only one way waiting for him, that is, to roll up and leave or change careers, because he is a person who breaks the rules, in the eyes of the group leader and the selection director, he is a thorn in the head, and no one will use him anymore. Unless...... There is a heavyweight insider to give him a boost, but this is not easy to say, there are too many group performances of Hengden, and heavyweights often do not have any intersection with this group, and even group photos and autographs are not allowed.

The ensemble actor was dressed thickly, and although he was a little dirty, he didn't fall, and quickly stood up, standing in place for ten seconds, dragging heavy steps away.

When this group performance passed by Zhang Wei, Zhang Wei immediately recognized this group performance, this person was the strange Fang Pengxing that Zhang Wei met on the first day of Hengdian.

Fang Pengxing didn't see Zhang Wei, his eyes were a little hollow.

"Fang Pengxing?" Zhang Wei shouted at him, but Fang Pengxing didn't hear it and continued to walk heavily.

Zhang Wei had to take two steps to follow, patted him on the shoulder, and raised his voice, "Fang Pengxing?"

Fang Pengxing was shocked to find that someone called him, and when he turned around, and then the dim lights on the side of the road, Zhang Wei saw his face full of hope, and asked excitedly: "Did the director call me back again?"

"It's me, Zhang Wei, remember me?" Zhang Wei saw that Fang Pengxing didn't recognize himself, and reported to his home.

Fang Pengxing's flickering eyes dimmed, and the whole person became weak again, but he still said, "Oh, hello." ”

Looking at Fang Pengxing's listless appearance, which was completely different from the radiant look when he first met, Zhang Wei couldn't help but say: "Isn't it just being scolded? ”

"What do you know! What do you know! Do you know when I'm done? Wait until tomorrow, the news that the group leader added me to the drama will spread, and no crew will dare to use me again, do you know?" Fang Pengxing suddenly broke out, shouting at Zhang Weiwei, his voice was almost roaring, and when the word was finished, the strength of the whole person seemed to be drained, and he sat on the ground and muttered: " I obviously didn't add drama, I acted according to the action of normal people's death, this is a very normal reaction, I just want to show the despair and attachment to the world when a person dies, what is wrong with me? What is wrong with me...... Woowoowoo......"

At the end, Fang Pengxing actually cried in a low voice, and the crying became louder and louder, and the whole person seemed to have suffered a great grievance.

"it! Who is there in the middle of the night! You are all dead, go and see, let them get away!" A horn shouted from the filming scene, and then Zhang Wei saw a group of people coming over menacingly, led by the group leader who had scolded Fang Pengxing just now.
