Chapter 43: The First Day
"The Family of Gold Powder" does not need to hold any start-up press conference, this drama has been set for next year's CCTV.
At nine o'clock in the morning, after breakfast, Chen Dong led his assistant to the shooting site, and then found that the most important things of cars, machines, people, and lights were all in place, and the camera covered with red cloth was very conspicuous in the sun...
Next to the red cloth are the incense burners, sandalwood, and tributes necessary for start-up.
Is this going to be a boot ceremony?
Chen Dong experienced this kind of thing for the first time, and it was very fresh!
The crew depends on the right time and place to eat, there are too many uncontrollable factors, if there is a god to bless, of course, you must worship religiously, if not, ask for a comfort, this thing is probably the reason why every time the drama starts, the start-up ceremony is held...
Looking at the busy staff, Chen Dong suddenly felt that something was missing...
After thinking about it for a while, it dawned on him.
Reporter!
"The Family of Gold Powder", the opening ceremony was not even invited by reporters?
When he told Li Dawei about this question, the latter replied like this: "After a while, CCTV should arrange reporters to interview..."
“…”
Well, you win!
Think about it, too, with the backing of Yang Ma, where do you need any publicity...
In fact, only in Asia, there will be a grand start-up ceremony for film and television dramas, Europe and the United States usually don't do this, they also have a start-up day, but they will never have such a sense of ceremony as here...
At most, they put the main creators together and called a group of media to take pictures and publicize.
The Korean crew's start-up ceremony generally has to toast to the gods of heaven and earth, they are not finished with a bow, the main creator has to kneel to show his piety...
This is also very in line with their character, kneeling at every turn...
Chinese crews, in fact, they don't know who to worship, they worship whoever they have in their hearts, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, all kinds of immortals...
Chen Dong, as the male number one, stood next to the director and reverently lit a stick of incense.
I vaguely remember that the ratings of "The Family of Gold Powder" were good, and Chen Kun was promoted to the most popular student in one fell swoop with this drama...
There is no reason to change him to act, the effect will be poor!
……
In fact, "The Family of Gold Powder" mainly shows the tragic story of the Republic of China, the big family follows the sunset with the loneliness of the big era, and the insurmountable class concept makes a pair of lovers who are miserable not die well...
Jin Yanxi and Leng Qingqiu are of course the heroes and heroines, and the two of them run throughout, but they are also interspersed with the love of Dr. Liu and Xiao Lian, who make any possible attempts, and even elope... The ending is very bleak: Liu Gongzi went crazy, Xiao Pian became a monk, and finally Liu Gongzi was sober when Xiao Pian cut his hair, but he saw a woman who was full of green silk, and she was going to live a hard life from then on, so she became ill with resentment, vomited blood and died...
The three sisters of the Jin family also have some shadows of Sanchun, and a young master of the Jin family is obsessed with a play...
This is also the reason why many people say that Zhang Hatshui's "The Family of Gold Powder" plagiarized "Dream of Red Mansions"...
In fact, during the Republic of China, there was no novel that wrote about big families that was not like "Red Mansions", firstly because of the strong Red Mansion fever during the Republic of China, and secondly, because big families on the verge of the last days were always similar.
"The Family of Gold Powder" also describes the aristocratic family that has changed from prosperity to decline, and also describes the love of youth, and it is not surprising to read a little bit of "Dream of Red Mansions"...
Mr. Ba Jin's "Family Spring and Autumn" even copied the original text of "Dream of Red Mansions", of course, only "quoted" a few sentences, and those who are familiar with "Red" may smile when they read it, but they do not think it is plagiarism, because "Family Spring and Autumn" tells a completely different story...
……
Chen Dong's first scene is going to cooperate with a bunch of old drama bones...
Jin Yanxi went home to see her father, mother, and aunt, and a conversation ensued.
In charge of the camera is director Liu Guoquan...
The three groups of "The Family of Gold Powder" were filmed at the same time, Li Dawei was in charge of Group B, Liu Guoquan was in charge of Group A, and there was also a director Gao Xilu in charge of Group C...
Generally, when it comes to the scenes of old actors, Liu Guoquan is in charge, after all, her qualifications are here, and she can put on the director's face!
You want Li Dawei to direct these old actors, it's difficult!
"Teacher Kou, I'll stilt Erlang's legs later, you stare at it, I'll put it down again, what do you think?"
Chen Dong took the script to Kou Zhenhai for advice, his attitude was quite respectful, the latter glanced at his notebook, pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, if you do it, the whole person will live." As he spoke, he patted him on the shoulder and said approvingly: "Yes, some ideas." ”
“… Everywhere and there, it's all random ideas..."
"That's pretty remarkable, too. ”
The two chatted for a few words, Chen Dong said goodbye and left, he left, Wu Jing walked over, glanced at Chen Dong's back, and suddenly asked, "You like this kid very much?"
“… Very talented actor and hard enough!"
Kou Zhenhai added: "You can go and see his script, it is full of annotations! If you can take the script so seriously, the future can be expected!"
"Really?"
Wu Jing nodded, it seems that he has to face this young man squarely!
In fact, the best way to treat old actors is to communicate with an open mind, you must correct your attitude, and let them know that you respect them from the bottom of your heart!
Old actors, such as Mr. Kou Zhenhai, he has already mixed to the top, it is difficult for the crew to ask him to play the leading role, he is not competing for a coffee position or popularity, but the comfort of being respected.
This kind of person is actually very simple, attentive and thoughtful, so that he has a good face, and his attitude is natural and kind.
……
In the room, Father Jin, Mother Jin and Aunt are sitting on the sofa, and there are a few plates of fruit on the coffee table...
Chen Dong tidied up his cuffs, stepped into the door, saw Father Jin, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and hurriedly walked over, while greeting: "Father, mother, aunt, please say hello to you!" sat on the sofa very casually, crossed his legs: "Father, when did you come back?
Kou Zhenhai squinted at him, Chen Dong quickly put down his legs, but his body was still nested in the sofa, Kou Zhenhai glared at him, and then said: "Why are you asking this?
“… Where?" Chen Dong reached out and took an orange, peeling it, and replied, "I hope you can't come every day!"
Kou Zhenhai was about to say something, but Wu Jing answered: "Okay, I'll show you your face as soon as you come back, do you want the children to be afraid of you?"
After speaking, he looked at Chen Dong and explained: "Your father just came back to take a look, and he has to go back to Xiangshan early tomorrow morning!"
"Why are you tired? Why, being bullied?"
Chen Dong smiled disdainfully: "Who dares to bully me! Let me tell you, the child saw the fairy yesterday!"
"The more you talk about this child, the more outrageous it becomes, how can you meet a fairy?"
Chen Dong replied naturally: "The northern suburbs nunnery!"
Teacher Yang Jing, who played the aunt, was surprised: "The northern suburbs nunnery?"
"Did you really go to the nunnery?"
"What's wrong? Where don't you let people go?"
"The dignified young master of the Jin family, he has nothing to do and goes to the nunnery, if this spreads, how can the face of the Jin family remain?"
The aunt saw that Father Jin seemed to be angry, so she hurriedly gaged: "Why are you running to a nunnery if you have nothing to do? If you want to worship the Buddha, you should go to the temple, the nunnery is where women go." Yes, you didn't know before, but now my aunt tells you, don't go again next time!"
