Chapter 31: Pride and Prejudice
As soon as the plane landed, Twilight's head was dizzy, and even during the taxiing of the plane, Twilight was constantly pressing on her temples.
"You don't need to go to West Lake to take a bath and sober up. Haruhai unbuckled his seatbelt and elbowed Twilight.
"Hehe, no. Twilight then cast a mournful gaze.
"When you arrive at Hengdian Film and Television City, you will be sober. Chunhai's eyes looked at Twilight with a slanted smile, and even through the eye piece, his pupils were still dazzling.
"Go to Hengdian, this movie is not a campus ......" Twilight was obviously a little surprised.
"I didn't say that I was going to Hengdian to shoot, besides, since we came to Zhejiang as a film and television industry, we can't pay homage to China's largest film and television capital. The corners of Chunhai's mouth curved into a beautiful arc, revealing cute little tiger teeth.
"Hurry up and read the script again, don't ask questions from Director Jia then, you don't know if you ask. Sitting in the car, Chunhai urged, "Also, have you thought about the opening remarks of meeting other star actors." β
"Do you still need to prepare?" "Twilight has the spirit of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.
"In the twilight of winter, all the directors and stars you come into contact with next will become your future network resources. Chunhai hated iron and looked at Twilight, "So from today onwards, you have to change some of your personality inconsistencies, you are not only a writer who only needs to write at your desk, you are an artist who is often exposed to the camera." β
"Okay, I see. Twilight had no intention of arguing with Chunhai anymore, so he took the initiative to take out the script and film materials from Chunhai's bag, opened it and pretended to look at it.
Over the years, Twilight has learned to be tactful, though it's the thing he hates the most. He is a conviction that writers are a group of arrogant hermits, who do not want to face the camera or act on the spot. And when reality broke its own bloody dog, all the perseverance in my heart was wiped out with the momentum of destroying the ancient era.
"Can you accept not staying in a hotel while filming? Chunhai stared out the window without turning his head and said.
"Yes. "Twilight feels like the sea of spring is teasing itself.
"That's good. Chunhai nodded and smiled lightly.
Twilight couldn't sit still, "I really can't stay in a hotel this time." β
Chunhai turned his head, the corners of his mouth were obviously smiling, "Didn't you say it was acceptable." β
"It's acceptable, but this is the first time filming, and it's still on campus, so it's a bit of a gap if you don't live in a hotel. In fact, Twilight had long known Harumi's intention to ask this question, and when he was a writer, he had read a report. The report was to the effect that a popular male star required that there must be a five-star hotel within a radius of one kilometer from the filming site, because of this hypocritical request, the male star was directly stamped by the media and netizens as a "big name", and since then, his star career has plummeted.
"Don't worry, we still have to stay in the hotel, but we have to go to the set first. Chunhai said with a sly smile.
The Ford nanny car drove into a university, and Twilight looked out the window at the youthful students walking with books in their arms.
A long-haired girl in a plush lady's outfit, a tall boy holding a basketball in a black Nike trench coat, and a hot-blooded coser in an anime costume...... These scenes and shots are so longing for him, as if he rushed out of the car door to merge into the crowd rushing to class, or the varsity team competing for basketball.
People always like to squander their youth, and when they lose their youth, it's too late to regret it.
"Luo Yutong. Twilight looked at a girl with long straight black hair who passed by and said, the girl's back really made him linger.
"What do you say, Twilight. Chunhai stretched out his head and asked Twilight.
"It's nothing, it's just that I miss college life a little bit. Twilight smiled awkwardly, picked up the script, and pretended to read it again.
"Okay, don't grind your guns, you're going to the set, you still think about how to greet the big names after you get out of the car. Chunhai snatched the script from Twilight's hand and put it away.
As a loud noise came from outside the car, Twilight saw a place in front of him with a barrier, and several security guards were guarding there, and after the driver of the car whispered a few words to the security guards, the security personnel pulled the barrier open a slit for the vehicle to pass through. As soon as I walked in the car, the barrier was re-closed.
After about five more minutes of driving, Harumi tilted his head and hooked his mouth, "It's here, brother, get ready." With that, he pushed the door and got out of the car.
The tall and long mechanical rocker arm, the lights surrounding the actors, the long and slender recording lever, the slide rail with a large video recorder more than ten meters long, and nearly 100 on-site staff. Such a huge scene makes Twilight, who can only write at the desk, like a child who has just entered the world of flowers, and the novelty is mixed with fear.
βAction!β The loud sound came out through the loudspeaker and became more penetrating.
Harumi reached out to stop Twilight as she was walking her way forward, and he put his index finger to his mouth, making a quiet gesture to Twilight, and then pulled Twilight towards a shed.
The director, dressed in a black down jacket, grabbed the walkie-talkie and stood by the monitor, and he was engrossed in looking at a small monitor of about 15 inches, and all the effects presented by the actors jumped on the screen.
Twilight didn't expect that when Director Jia, who walked the red carpet of the Venice Film Festival and attended the annual conferences of major films, when he was next to you, he was actually similar to an ordinary teacher, but this teacher taught film art.
βOK,CUT!β As soon as Director Jia shouted, Chunhai pushed Dusk Dong, "Director Jia, how did the second scene and the first second shot go." β
Director Jia turned around, then stood up, and stepped forward to hold Chunhai's hand first, "Brother Ouyang, it's the road." Then he held Twilight's hand: "Welcome Twilight, there is no camera of you today, you can get to know Zhendong and Liying first." β
In fact, when Jia Zhi stretched out his hand to Twilight, Twilight's calf muscles couldn't stop trembling, and when he learned that he was going to meet the popular traffic male star Liu Zhendong and the little flower girl Fang Liying who had just become popular in the past few years, Twilight suddenly felt that the world was spinning and the stars were moving.
"Junkai, Liying, you two come here, twilight is coming, you all know each other. Jia shouted to the two who were touching up their makeup.
Both of them are popular star artists who often appear in movies and TV series, and they are just newcomers who have just entered the circle, and this kind of timidity like a lion cub entering a group of adult male lions really makes me want to quickly escape the scene to avoid the crowd.
"He Dudong, if you hide today, you will have to hide for the rest of your life. He Dudong clenched his fists, he clenched his teeth tightly, and tried his best to force back the fear and timidity in his heart.
"Hello Ho Dudong. A crisp greeting like a yellow bird drilled into Twilight's cochlea, Twilight greeted it with a smile, holding a hand stretched out, it was a girl's hand, soft and tender, like jade tofu just out of the pot.
"Hello, you are Fang Liying, please take care of your first cooperation. "Twilight can't think of any flowery rhetoric to open with.
"You don't need to be so polite, we don't have much of a big deal. Li Ying's eyes sparkled with starlight when she smiled, and her teeth were neat and beautiful.
"You are my senior in this industry, and I need more advice from you in the future. I don't know if it's because of Liying's kind tone, or because the mental hint worked, that nervous shyness has disappeared, replaced by a pleasant feeling of chatting with the big sister next door.
Twilight has done her homework about Fang Liying, and the fact that this girl who is less than 1.7 meters tall can achieve today's achievement has a lot to do with her hard-working work spirit. It is said that Fang Liying was discovered by a talent scout in a bar, but since she participated in the first urban emotional TV series, she instantly gained a large number of fans because of her cute and hearty image. In the past few years, she has continued to participate in costume dramas, urban dramas, war action dramas, etc., and has won a dazzling array of film and television newcomer awards.
"You're He Dudong, welcome. A bold low male voice penetrated, and a strong man with a height of 1.9 meters stood in front of Li Ying, he stretched out his hand, and barely squeezed out a smile on his cold face.
This is Liu Zhendong, a standard northern man, who held Zhendong's hand in the twilight winter as if holding a sturdy crab claw, and the powerful force ran from the palm to the fingers.
"Hello, Brother Dong, please advise me for the first time. Twilight held Liu Zhendong's "crab claws" with both hands and bowed slightly, he thought that since he was a newcomer, he should be humble.
Without a response, Twilight looked up and saw Zhendong's chin slowly raised, and there was an indescribable hidden arrogance on his face. The next moment, however, "Well said, well said." Zhendong shook Twilight's hand and smiled cheerfully.
Like a volcano about to erupt, it is like being choked by its vent, and the pride and prejudice in the midst of forbearance.
This kind of arrogance, Twilight Winter has no confidence to resist, Liu Zhendong, as a popular male star who has debuted for almost ten years, has participated in countless movies and TV series, and it is an honor to appear on the same screen with him.
"Zhendong, Liying, you guys go and shoot the third scene now. Director Jia came over and said, "Twilight, there is no camera of you tonight, if you want to stay and take a look and study, it's okay, but I suggest you go back and take a good look at the lines and script, your first electrocution, your line skills definitely need to be exercised." β
"It's okay, Director Jia, I'll guide Twilight tomorrow. Li Ying raised her hand lively.
"You and I have six more shots tomorrow, so there's still time. Displeasure was evident on Zhendong's face.
"There's always time to squeeze in, right, director. Li Ying lied to Jia Dao.
"Tomorrow you have a scene with Twilight, it should be four scenes and two shots, then you should just direct Twilight. After Director Jia finished speaking, Zhendong lost his momentum in an instant, and he had to turn around and leave.
In the car back to the hotel, Chunhai looked at Twilight, who was reading the script seriously, "Twilight, what do you think of this girl Liying." β
"Nice, very helpful and lively. Twilight didn't take her eyes off the script.
"Don't answer so officially, I just suggest that you learn more from Fang Liying, she is not a simple girl, as for Liu Zhendong, forget it." Chunhai took off his eyes and wiped them carefully.
"Hey, Chunhai, how long does it take to complete the filming of a movie and officially release it in theaters. Twilight doesn't seem to have the intention of getting Harumi to say this.
"What's the matter, you want to go back before you even want to shoot. Chunhai couldn't cry or laugh.
"No, I just wanted her to see it early. Twilight looked out of the car and at the stars that dotted the night sky.
