Chapter 165: A Kiss Across the Centuries
Two failed men and women, because they met online to find a partner on Chinese New Year's Eve, in a day to night, they from mutual defense and mutual appreciation, and finally in the countdown to Chinese New Year's Eve, they kissed, and the next day, they each returned to their lives, but quietly changed.
If you follow the narrative mode of domestic TV dramas, it will probably involve all kinds of bloody things, and then they fall in love with each other, maybe they get married, but the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will become an eternal theme, maybe it will also involve children going to school, buying a house and various plots, although it is long, but it can definitely make people watch it with relish.
When "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss" came the next day, the story came to an abrupt end, leaving an aftertaste, and what it expressed was simple, the occurrence of a relationship, the story of love and romance, nothing more.
In the final analysis, this movie is a pure dialogue movie, everything is advancing in the chatter, and it is obviously impossible to deal with it with complex and cumbersome film techniques in terms of processing techniques, on the contrary, Zhou Bai and Yu Feihong have set the style before, that is, it is simple to the extreme.
Don't show off your skills, return to the core of the story, and everything is centered on the brewing of emotions, so as to resonate with the audience, this is Zhou Bai's strategy.
In the original version, there are countless words of fucking in the dialogue, and it will definitely not be able to be used after changing to the Chinese version of the story, and the actor is the place where he is complained about the most, not to mention the ugliness, the performance is poor, and even the movie picture is unusually rough, if it is not a good story, this is a proper bad movie.
Now there are no such shortcomings, the picture is shot on 35mm film, the texture is much better than the original, the actors are professional, whether it is Zhou Gongzi or Zhang Jingchu, it is much better than the original two actresses, Zhou Bai and Huang Xiaoming will not talk about it, they are properly handsome.
filmed the scene of Mao Weiwei and Li Mingyuan wandering on the street, and the crew encountered more difficulties, they had to pay attention to goofs at all times, and even sometimes had to wait for the opportunity, and during this time, the whole crew was far busier than other times, filming street scenes during the day, and filming theater scenes and subway scenes at night, so busy that their feet did not touch the ground.
This time, Zhou Bai is not only the leading actor, but also an investor and producer, and at the same time he has become the busiest person in the crew.
After Zhang Jingchu's filming ended, she did not leave, but stayed to help, Zhou Bai did not refuse, she was employing people at this time, she had this heart, Zhou Bai secretly remembered.
Mei Ting, Chen Minghao, and Hao Rong all took less than a day to complete the cameo scenes, and Zhou Bai invited them to dinner after the filming of the day, and by the way, he helped Zhou Gongzi celebrate the success of apprenticeship.
Now the remaining cameo scenes are only the kissing scenes of the couple and the scenes with Chang's mother, because she has to teach everyone, so she needs to make an appointment to make up the shot.
In general, the process of filming this movie was happy, although Yu Feihong's tone became stern because of some mistakes and omissions in the work, but the overall atmosphere was relaxed, and in the process, Zhou Bai also learned a lot of things.
To put it bluntly, this crew is a group of experienced staff with a few novice creators in the filming, so it is necessary to maintain a good atmosphere, people in this era are very dedicated, and there are not so many foreign workers, there are not many movies that have been shot in this year, and it is a happy thing to be able to have a job and a salary.
The staff is experienced, so Zhou Bai and these creators must respect them, people who have the ability have tempers, now is not the time to play prestige, when the status in the industry has been laid, it is not too late to let go of your temper.
Giving respect to the staff does not mean letting them go, criticizing and criticizing, and still saying that they are not doing well, but they should pay attention to the method and beat them without hurting the other party's self-esteem.
Now Zhou Bai definitely holds the power of life and death of the crew, the investor is him, the producer is also him, and the actor is still him, the importance of these three identities goes without saying, which one who does not open his eyes and does not listen to repeated persuasions, just kick him out of the crew directly, so a good temper is Zhou Bai's upbringing, who dares to give a face and shameless Zhou Bai can clean him up in minutes.
However, for most of the filming, there was no stupid guy who came out to give Zhou Bai the opportunity to use his rights, and Zhou Bai was also happy, after all, this was the team introduced by Lou Ye, and he had to take Lou Ye's face into account when using thunder methods.
In fact, the crew is not stupid, they also know Zhou Bai's identity and background, when filming "Suzhou River", Zhou Bai was one of the golden fathers, and now filming "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss" Zhou Bai invited them again, but also to give them the opportunity to make money, after all, the treatment of the crew is better than "Suzhou River".
Zhou Gongzi is even more that no one will embarrass her, whether it is photography, lighting or props, these people are acquaintances who have already worked together once, and the agency behind Zhou Gongzi is not a vegetarian, and now other agents are basically following the crew every day, who dares to embarrass her without opening their eyes.
Unknowingly, the movie has been filmed for more than a month, and the run-in between Zhou Gongzi and Zhou Bai is getting better and better, and the movie is gradually approaching completion, with only a few major scenes left to finish.
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, in addition to the photography team to shoot some Chinese New Year's Eve materials, Yu Feihong also gave the crew a holiday, those who want to go home can go home, and those who don't go home celebrate with the crew, after all, the last night of the 20th century is very commemorative.
In addition to some staff who live in the capital or have families, there are also many staff members who stay in the crew, and Yuan Yang also gave a budget to ensure that everyone can eat and drink well.
Zhou Bai and Yuan Yang did not stay in the crew, they added meals to the staff who stayed, and after sending a meaningful red envelope, the two of them returned to the Chinese opera, and Liu Ye and they were all waiting for Zhou Bai and Yuan Yang to return to school to celebrate together.
The celebration of Chinese New Year's Eve at the end of the century in Beijing is also very grand, and the whole capital is filled with a joyful smell, and the lights are displayed everywhere, even more grand than the celebration of the Spring Festival, which is dazzling to see.
The countdown on Chinese New Year's Eve is an essential activity, and this time all the students of the 96 acting class gathered together to participate in the countdown to the New Year at Taimiao, and even Chang's mother also participated in this event.
The celebration of the temple is very rich, in addition to the celebration of the return of 97 Xiangjiang, this time the grand occasion is also one of the best, when the last seconds of the 20th century are over, everyone is thundering, the 21st century is coming.
Infected by the crazy atmosphere, Zhou Bai and Yuan Yu also kissed together, not caring about the flashing lights flashing next to him, being with the person he loved, spanning a century, this meaning is greater than anything.
