Chapter 153: Toss

The atmosphere at the shooting scene was very solemn, and everyone's eyes were focused on Zhang Ran's face, waiting for him to give an answer. Almost everyone thinks Zhang Ran is crazy, and more than 30 shots were taken in one shot, which is still Chen Daoming's shot.

It's not a movie, it's just a TV series, and it's so tormenting Chen Daoming, isn't this crazy?

Zhang Ran stared at the picture with both eyes, carefully watching the playback of the monitor. Chen Daoming's performance is actually enough, and it's no problem to pass, but he doesn't want Chen Daoming to pass it so easily. Of course, he didn't do this for personal revenge, but he felt that with Chen Daoming's strength, he could do better, and he could dig a little more.

"Zhang Ran, how is it?" Zhang Jiandong, who was sitting next to him, saw Zhang Ran's brows frowning slightly, and sighed in his heart, this kid won't want to reshoot, right? He looked up at Chen Daoming, Chen Daoming looked very calm, and there was no sign of madness, but no one dared to guarantee that Chen Daoming would not be angry if he continued to shoot again.

Zhang Ran shook his head gently: "It's still not good enough, it has to be remade." ”

"It's been more than thirty times, it's almost enough!" Zhang Jiandong wiped the sweat from his forehead. He felt that this shot was completely passable, and Zhang Ran even had to reshoot it, it was too messy!

If it is a director at the level of Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang, it is not a problem to let Chen Daoming shoot more than a dozen, but Zhang Ran is just a rookie director, and he is still shooting a TV series.

In the middle and late stages of filming, no one in the crew dared to offend the main actors, in case they were offended, it would be a big deal as soon as the show was dismissed. The temporary change of generals will lead to the re-shooting of all the scenes of the character filmed before, and the loss of time and money is incalculable!

It's really messed up!

"Brother Zhang, it's okay. Teacher Daoming is not a stingy person!" Zhang Ran smiled and said.

is also a drama bully, if it is a ginger pattern. Zhang Ran definitely didn't dare to do this. Because ginger may pick and choose, it may be passive and slacking off. But Chen Daoming won't, he will definitely continue to act seriously. Chen Daoming is the kind of person who is strict with others and even stricter with himself.

Zhang Ran stood up from behind the monitor and came to Chen Daoming's face, with a smile on his face: "Teacher Daoming, you have to come again, the feeling of that lens is still not good enough, it's still a little tight, you relax a little more." ”

"Still can't do it?" Chen Daoming shook his head helplessly. He has been filming TV series for so many years. It's the first time I've encountered this situation.

Zhang Ran was still smiling: "If it were someone else, it might be okay, but you are Chen Daoming, I know that with your level, you should act better!"

Chen Daoming's assistant was really a little angry, walked over, and asked with a straight face: "Director, what do you mean by this? Everyone else can get by, but Mr. Chen can't, is there anything like you?"

The assistant of the star. It sounds good, but in fact, the assistant's job is to take everything for the actors, and help the stars get folding chairs, teacups, scripts, clothes, bags and other things needed to participate in the filming that day. Wake up and eat on time, the owner is lonely and depressed to chat with him and go shopping to relieve boredom, sometimes. To prevent fans, journalists, and ill-intentioned people from harassing them, assistants also need to step in.

However, the Prime Minister's concierge is a seven-rank official. The master's wrist is big, and the assistant often follows the cow. For example, when Li Jiaxin was filming "Painting Soul", she went to France to shoot. She insisted that she should take first class as a superstar, and in France, she asked to live in a five-star hotel, but her assistant also followed suit, lived in a five-star hotel, and opened a single room, and the treatment was better than Hu Jun and them.

Without waiting for Zhang Ran to speak, Chen Daoming preemptively said to his assistant: "Okay, you go to the side to rest, there is no place for you to speak here!"

Chen Daoming's assistant glared at Zhang Ran fiercely, then stepped aside and sulked. Chen Daoming had spoken, so she naturally couldn't say anything.

Filming resumed, but this time it didn't happen. So, another remake.

It was filmed until the forty-eighth time.

"Okay, this shot is over!"

Zhang Ran shouted behind the monitor and shook the entire shooting scene. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and clapped their hands cracklingly, forty-eight times, and now it's finally over!

At this moment, almost everyone looked at Zhang Ran's gaze and was full of awe. They have a strong sense of anticipation for this play, and with such a director, they believe that this play will be very exciting.

During the filming break, Chen Baoguo came over, patted Zhang Ran on the shoulder, and grinned: "Zhang Ran, I am impressed with your kid now, it's amazing, it's amazing!"

Zhang Ran knew that he was watching Chen Daoming's jokes, these two had cooperated in a lot of dramas, lived in a community, and had a good relationship with each other, but they were both first-line celebrities, and they were a bit secretly competing. He smiled and said, "Teacher Baoguo, don't praise me!"

Chen Baoguo laughed and said: "You have to boast, you dare to let Chen Daoming come again and again! Who dares to change other directors? Even Feng Xiaogang may not dare to let him shoot like you over and over again! Forty-eight times, it is estimated that Chen Daoming's NG record has been broken! Aren't you a little worried?"

Zhang Ran said with a smile: "I'm here for the show, he must let him come over if he doesn't meet the requirements, and I have no selfishness, what is there to be afraid of! Besides, he is not the kind of person who loses his temper and messes around!"

"You're really not worried at all?"

"I'm really not worried, Teacher Chen Daoming is not that kind of stingy person, it's okay! Of course, if you don't act well, I definitely don't dare to give you forty-eight!"

Chen Baoguo's face was flat, and his aura was full of aura, which startled the two assistant directors next to him: "What do you mean kid, you mean I'm stingy, I think you owe a beating!"

After dinner, Zhang Ran sat on a stool to rest, waiting to shoot the night scene.

Chen Daoming moved a chair to sit next to Zhang Ran, opened the script and prepared to discuss the night's scene with him: "Xiao Zhang, do you know that forty-eight scenes were filmed today, creating a record since I started filming!"

Zhang Ran smiled: "It's really fake, then wouldn't I have a lot of face?"

Chen Daoming didn't expect Zhang Ran to react like this, and he almost wanted to slap him, but he was too bad: "You are bold enough, remake it over and over again, aren't you afraid that I will turn my face and not shoot?"

Zhang Ran looked at Chen Daoming and said seriously: "Don't be afraid." I know you won't, you're a very professional actor!" Zhang Ran pointed to the script in his hand and said, "An actor who marked the script like this." They'll just think they're shooting too little, not too much!"

This sycophant shot Chen Daoming very comfortably: "I also watched that scene at the end." There is no difference in performance from the beginning of filming. What exactly do you want?"

Zhang Ran explained: "The imperial flavor on your body is too strong, and the momentum is too strong. This is not something that Liu Xinjie should have, a lazy and casual feeling. In fact, senior actors like you often have a problem when acting, which is particularly easy to be ingenious. It is always easy for you to show your very complex emotions and to show your multi-layered state of mind. It is often very difficult to get you to act in something simple, moving. Because when you're able to navigate complexity, you're losing simplicity. In front of Liu Xinjie in this scene is a character wearing a mask. The heart is hidden, and it is easy for you, but later on, the inner emotions will be exposed, and there are many places where the true feelings are revealed, and it is difficult to act, so I have to grind off the imperial flavor on your body, so that when the true feelings are revealed in the end, you can really move people!"

Actors don't know skills at first, they only know real feelings, such as crying scenes. It is difficult for some new actors to really cry, and once they cry, it is difficult to withdraw from it, and they have to wait two hours to calm down. If you have enough skills to act, you will not be tempted to act. From No. 1 to No. 10, there are emoji patterns for you, and what you want is given to you, but this performance is too symbolic.

Chen Daoming nodded and said, "You're right. There are many actors who perform the same play, and it is easy to be patterned. In the past two years, I have taken on a lot of imperial dramas. That's why I took "Black Hole" to play the villain, and then I took on your play. I just want to make a change!"

"I think this TV series can bring you different things, the characters are very different from the front in the back, and there are a lot of emotional outflows. I need to see the real emotion, and there is a real investment in the emotion, so that the later drama can come out. I think as long as the later scenes are filmed, it will also be a breakthrough for you!"

When Wong Kar-wai was filming "East Evil and West Poison", Lin Qingxia tried a few shots, Wong Kar-wai said no, you are still playing the undefeated East. In the end, he finally polished off the undefeated brand of the East on Lin Qingxia's body, and really performed Murong Yanlai. Zhang Ran hopes to polish off Chen Daoming's imperial spirit and perform a living Liu Xinming.

Chen Daoming smiled: "It seems that I came to the right place this time." ”

After a conversation with Zhang Ran, Chen Daoming solved the doubts in his heart. When he understood that what Zhang Ran wanted was actually the same thing as what he was pursuing, he began to adjust his state, and the whole shooting soon became easier.

Zhang Ran was very strict during filming, but he was quite good to the crew during the break. will pay for food and water for everyone, and at the same time, he will personally inquire about the crew's working meals to ensure the quality of everyone's diet.

In short, whether it is a big name like Chen Daoming or an ordinary extra, they all like him very much.

At noon, Chen Baoguo came over with a plate: "Zhang Ran, you're wrong."

Zhang Ran felt inexplicable: "Teacher Baoguo, what's wrong with me?"

Chen Baoguo glared at Zhang Ran and said, "What you said to Chen Daoming is very reasonable, actors are very easy to be ingenious and easy to be patterned when they act a lot." You can't just help him, I also want to make a little change, and you can give me a few more when I shoot my scene later!"

Zhang Ran couldn't cry or laugh: "This is a role need, the Taoist teacher has a strong aura, and Liu Xinjie is a more easy-going person and a very life-oriented person, so I have to let the Taoist teacher change." You are playing Tan Zhongshu, you need a strong aura, you don't need this!"

Chen Baoguo heard Zhang Ran say this, did not embarrass him, and reminded: "Then forget it this time, next time there is a character similar to Liu Xinjie, you will find me!"

Zhang Ran nodded again and again: "I must be looking for you, I have absolute trust in Teacher Baoguo's acting skills!"

The four days passed quickly, and Zhang Ran successfully completed the shooting. Immediately afterwards, he plunged headlong into the editing, completed the editing in one day, and cut out two episodes with the same content but different performances.

On the day of the survey, the conference room of the hotel was full.

The first few rows are extras from Hengdian brought by the crew of "Before Dawn". Watching two episodes of TV series and doing a questionnaire, there are 30 yuan, it is rare for them to have such an easy job, and they are all very easy.

The crew sat in the back, and everyone was curious about the results of this questionnaire and talked about it quietly. (To be continued......)
