Chapter 750: Wang Fried Combo [Asking for a Monthly Pass]

These things written by Zhang Chu have been adapted into film and television works one after another, and at the same time, the first TV series of "Sou Shen Ji" is also being planned.

It's just that the screenwriter hasn't changed the script yet, so filming can't start for the time being.

The anime of "Those Things About the Rabbit That Year" has also been recognized, and this stick figure comic that is sought after by all animation companies is not handed over to the rest, but is funded and produced by Hanlin Culture Media Co., Ltd. itself.

The animation has not yet started production, but it has recovered a lot of costs, iQiyi defeated Tencent Video and bought the animation copyright of the first season of "That Rabbit" at a sky-high price.

And according to the level of 2 million yuan per episode, many people are now waiting for its debut!

The Mei Lanfang Memorial Hall, located near Baoguo Temple, is a typical Yanjing courtyard.

Covering an area of almost 1,000 square meters, Mr. Mei Lanfang used to be in this quiet and quiet courtyard before his death.

This used to be part of the palace of Prince Yi in the late Qing Dynasty, so it looks pretty good.

There are a large number of precious cultural relics and documents in the exhibition room, and the exhibition room contains the main artistic activities of Mr. Mei Lanfang's life, as well as some costumes and props used, as well as calligraphy, paintings or other souvenirs given to him by friends at home and abroad.

Although "Farewell My Concubine" does not tell the story of Mr. Mei, it is also related to Peking Opera, so filming here has a different feeling.

"Guess which scene was filmed here?" Xu Ji was old and strong, and he started a dumb riddle.

Zhang Chu looked around and found no trace of the clapperboard, which was very difficult to guess.

Regardless of the fact that the whole book was knocked out from under his hands, as long as you recall the plot inside, you will know the general content.

First of all, this is a courtyard house, it can't be a theater, it should be a place to live.

When Cheng Dieyi was still called Xiaodouzi, he followed his master and senior brothers to practice in the courtyard, but the conditions were not good at that time, and he couldn't afford to live in such a good place.

Then there is only one answer!

Zhang Chu, who incarnated as Detective Conan, gave a reasoning answer very confidently: "I guess this should be Cheng Dieyi's home after he became famous, right? ”

Xu Ji clapped his hands, gave a thumbs up and said, "It's worthy of writing reasoning, and I guessed it right at once." This is Cheng Dieyi's home, we filmed several scenes here, Duan Xiaolou was beaten, Dieyi beat Xiaosi, and now what we want to shoot is the last scene, Dieyi burns costumes. ”

The shooting of the film does not mean that it is strictly in chronological order, but depends on the director's shooting plan.

In it, the plot of burning costumes is very important, successfully shaping the paranoid side of Cheng Dieyi's character, and paving the way for the tragic ending of the story.

He didn't want to donate his costumes to some people who didn't understand and didn't cherish the play, so he would rather burn these precious costumes.

And in the script adapted by Mr. Xu Ji, quite wonderful changes have been made in it, Dieyi thinks that the senior brother Duan Xiaolou knows that Xiaosi wants to replace him to play Yu Ji, but he does not object, but hides it from everyone together.

Thinking that he had suffered a betrayal, Dieyi burned these costumes in a heartbroken state, because he could no longer sing on the same stage with Duan Xiaolou!

"Director Xu, the makeup has been repaired, and it's time to start filming. A staff member wearing a down vest ran to Xu Ji and whispered, he glanced at Zhang Chu curiously, and thought it was a relative child of Xu Ji's family.

Xu Ji said to Zhang Chu: "You came at the right time, let you see that the actor I chose will never be wrong." This is Zhang Guorong's one-man show, he really ate this role thoroughly!"

"Then I'll see. ”

Zhang Chu looked at the person next to the heater not far away, and felt a little emotion in his heart.

In my previous life, I could only see images in various movie works, but in this life, I finally saw real people, but I didn't dare to go over to say hello, for fear of destroying the impression in my mind.

Rows of hangers hung beautifully made costumes, and the leading actor Zhang Guorong handed over the black down jacket draped over his shoulders to his assistant to take, and he stood in front of the camera in a thin white gown.

At this time, Xu Ji sat next to the monitor, took the walkie-talkie and said, "Each unit checks the equipment, and we will start shooting immediately." ”

Zhang Chu sat on the chair in a regular manner, watching the operation of the crew.

This is just a small crew filming literary films, but the staff is already dozens of people, if it is a large-scale shooting, then the number of people, including actors, is estimated to be hundreds or thousands!

Therefore, there are too few people in China who can shoot big scenes, and they need extremely high scheduling ability, and Lao Mouzi does have a complete set, even if he is criticized as a radio gymnastics expert.

With the various staff in place, Zhang Guorong's emotional brewing has also reached its peak!

When he performed, he couldn't see any traces at all, and interpreted Cheng Dieyi's calm surface and inner heart like ashes.

These costumes are all the characters he has played, and now burning the costumes represents his farewell to these characters in his heart.

A calm face and an expressionless face are two different things, and there is a huge difference between the gestures and the gaze!

There are no lines in this scene, only Zhang Guorong's performance, and the fire is really burning.

The costumes hanging on the shelves were rising with flames, but the beating flames could not warm Cheng Dieyi's heart.

Zhang Chu couldn't help but shout in his heart, this actor really didn't choose the wrong one, he has become one with Cheng Dieyi!

It's fun to watch it live in front of the computer, even if it's just a clip.

"Ka, let's do it all over again. Camera No. 3 pays attention to close-ups, and camera No. 1 moves accurately. The heater over there is turned off, and there is an orange light in the background!"

Xu Ji can be said to be strict, insisting on shooting in natural light and insisting on live sound reception, so the requirements for actors and cameras are particularly high.

Zhang Chu thought that this was good enough, but he didn't expect that Mr. Xu was trying to improve to the point of nitpicking, so it seems that there is no need to worry about the quality of the film!

"It's not easy to be an actor. ”

It was such a cold day, but Zhang Guorong nodded after hearing the sound card, and returned to the original place to stand, as if he couldn't feel the cold wind at all.

A thin white gown barely keeps warm!

The props crew quickly stepped forward to extinguish the burning costumes with fire extinguishers, then swept the ashes from the ground and hung up the identical costumes.

The whole operation was orderly, as if it had been done many times.

Xu Ji looked at Zhang Chu, and a smile appeared on his old face: "Filming is actually a very boring thing, if you feel bored, play with your mobile phone, but be careful not to make a sound." ”

"Why, I think it's funny. ”

"It's not a good habit to be duplicitous at a young age. ”

I don't know how many times this has been filmed, anyway, Zhang Chu feels that the flawless performance will always be faulted by Xu Ji, and Zhang Guorong sometimes nods and agrees, and sometimes he wears a down jacket to argue.

It's just one scene, but it's not all shot after two hours!

You can imagine how demanding it is.

Zhang Guorong was drinking hot water with a thermos cup, and his assistant had already put on the down jacket, and the whole person seemed to be too cold.

It's not easy to shoot such a dazzling picture when you're frozen.

In the corner, the staff members who were temporarily idle gathered to chat.

At this time, a middle-aged man from the set group lit a cigarette and asked, "Who is the young man talking to Director Xu?" It seems that he is quite close to Director Xu, why didn't he see him in the movie?"

"I guess it's the child of a relative or friend, and it seems to be quite suitable for filmmaking. ”

"It's a pity that Mr. Xu is about to retire, otherwise he can find a supporting role in the old man's movie. This is a relational household, and it is much easier to become famous. ”

Lin Feng, who was in charge of logistics, glanced around, and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, people are not actors." He is the original author of this movie!"

"Is it him? The writer who makes more than 300 million a year?"

"Damn, isn't it......"

"You look more handsome than me, and you are more talented and rich than me, do you want someone to live!"

"He is Zhang Chu? No wonder Old Man Xu has such a good attitude towards him, it turns out that he is a person who has cooperated twice. ”

"I can make so much money, what kind of drama do I play, and I feel so comfortable writing books. Carrying a laptop to travel around the world in style, I feel envious when I think about it. ”

This group of people also misunderstood Zhang Chu's identity at the beginning, but fortunately, there are people who know the inside story, otherwise more speculations will come out!

Of course, this is also inevitable, his name is far more well-known than his appearance.

Most people don't think of a handsome young guy as a writer, even if Zhang Chu has a lot of news, even if he has been on the cover of several magazines.

Zhang Chuke didn't have the wind to hear the content of other people's chats, and he was glad that he didn't become a director.

Even if the director can increase or remove clothes at any time, he still needs to work outdoors, whether it is cold or hot, and sometimes even to the desert or plateau with difficult conditions.

Compared to this, it is indeed comfortable to be a writer!

Sitting on a chair and typing on the keyboard, no matter the scorching sun and cold wind, it can't be affected.

Finally, another hour passed, and after Xu Ji watched the playbacks of the various cameras in the monitor, his stiff face relaxed: "This one has passed!"

With his words, the props team was prepared for a long time, and directly put the simple salute into the sky, which lasted 4 months of shooting, and "Farewell My Concubine" was finally completed!

"Bang bang" twice, colorful confetti is all over the sky.

The staff cheered, the production director handed out red envelopes one by one, and the people carrying cameras were filming behind-the-scenes footage, which could be put in a dish or used for pre-promotion.

"Happy finishing, happy finishing!"

The director of production patted Zhang Chu on the shoulder, handed him a red envelope, and then turned to the rest of the people.

Zhang Chu didn't expect that he also got a finale red envelope, and he didn't care how much money was in it, he felt that it was a commemorative thing.

The wrinkles on Old Man Xu's face seemed to fade, and he said with emotion: "After filming for so long, the last movie is finally finished." ”

Flag again!

, The characters in movies and TV series generally say that this sentence means that the essentials are bento, but Xu Ji is very arrogant, he really wants to retire and then retire.

"Old Xu, you rest for a few months, and when I write a good one, I will still ask you to shoot it when the time comes. Otherwise, those fingers may be ruined in some way. ”

Xu Ji waved his hand, and he said in a low voice: "I know that bastard went to ask you for a script to empty gloves white wolf, and he really put his mind on crooked ways." ”

Zhang Chu didn't sue, and he really didn't know why Xu Ji knew that "Norwegian Wood" was remembered.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this and this, let's take a group photo, anyway, I'll come to visit the class, I have to leave something." ”

Zhang Guorong, who was dressed thickly, did not remove his makeup, he said with a smile: "Great writer, this script has been written in my heart, and it is so well written! Can I take a photo with you?"

"Couldn't be more welcome!"

Originally, Zhang Chu planned to go to Zhang Guorong to take pictures later, but he didn't expect the other party to come over by himself, how could he refuse this request!

Zhou Kang became a cameraman at this time, picked up Zhang Chu's mobile phone to take pictures of the three of them, and said with a little regret: "It's a pity that the time to visit the class was chosen too late, if it was before, the main actors would still be there." ”

"I just happened to meet the finale, and there was nothing wrong with it. Zhang Chu smiled brightly, there would be no chance to take a photo with them when he was on the earth.

After taking the photo, Xu Ji said: "My old bones can finally rest for a few days, I hope to edit the first version before the Spring Festival." ”

"Old Xu, don't be in such a hurry. We won't release it until next summer, and it's still early. ”

Zhang Guorong said approvingly: "I estimate that I will give myself a long vacation, and I may only participate in one or two propaganda missions at that time." ”

Xu Ji waved his hand indifferently, "Don't worry, I can only participate in one or two." We didn't have much preparation in total, and it was too tiring to run roadshows or something all over the world, so let's just take it easy. ”

No one is optimistic about the box office of "Farewell My Concubine", and this artistic film is lucky to be able to return to its original cost at the box office.

There was no finale banquet, and after the staff celebrated, they packed up the scene and prepared to classify the equipment, props, and sets.

Zhang Guorong and the others left in their nanny car, and Zhang Chu obviously couldn't stay where he was to clean up, so he and Zhou Kang walked towards the outside of the alley.

"That's how the movie is done?"

After watching this shot, Zhang Chu was still a little unsatisfied, and he wondered if he should go to find more materials to see.

"It's been more than four months, and it's very efficient. Zhou Kang reminded as he walked, "You remember to post this photo of the Wang Bang combination on the Internet, which can be regarded as a little news to the readers." ”

"Wang fried combination, this name sounds very good!"
