……
After the launch conference, the crew held a brief worship ceremony.
In the China Entertainment film and television industry, whenever a new film or drama starts filming, there must be a start-up ceremony - that is, choose a good day and an auspicious day to worship God.
Generally speaking, at the opening ceremony, the table used for worship is covered with red velvet cloth, and the table is dedicated to Emperor Guan, and on both sides are incense burners and roast suckling pig and fruits.
In other words, Second Brother Guan is quite busy with business, so he will ask him for a visit to him for anything.
This ritual originated in Hong Kong and first came from the fear of "slicing". Because film is very expensive, once the camera is diced, it will cause immeasurable losses to the crew, and the machine dicing is incalculable.
Therefore, the camera should be covered with a red cloth to suppress evil spirits.
After the decline of Hong Kong films in 2000, HK filmmakers went north and brought the custom of starting filming to the mainland.
Today's start-up worship, the "mystery" is not so strong, most of it is more like a crew mobilization meeting, one is to celebrate auspiciousness and boost morale, and the other is to attract media audiences and increase the exposure of the crew.
Generally speaking, you must first ask a teacher who is familiar with feng shui to determine the start-up time, accurate to what time it is, and then determine the direction of the incense to worship the gods.
When the time came, the main creators of the crew went to worship God in turn, and Li Zhe, as the director, took three sticks of incense and first bowed to Second Brother Guan.
After everyone took turns to worship, Ying Bao cut the pig's head, picked up the big knife, she cut the big pig's head at the table, and then ripped off the red cloth on the camera, and shouted with a smile: "I announce that "Love Piggy Bank" is officially launched!"
As soon as her words fell, the surrounding crowd burst into applause and cheers, and the long guns and short cannons were even more "click, click", flashing continuously, recording this moment.
After the ceremony, Li Zhe ordered the venue to be cleared, and fans and the media were persuaded to leave, and the shooting of the first shot of the day began.
……
The house tower house is the Korean name for the attic, that is, it refers to the highest floor of the house, and on the roof, it is a simple attic, and the attic is cold in winter and hot in summer, and the floor height is relatively short.
Because it is a surplus part built later, there is no water supply system, and there is no gas toilet or anything, so in Korea, the house tower house is also regarded as synonymous with the poor.
Like kimchi and miso soup, the house tower house has a high appearance rate in Korean dramas, such as the anti-time drama "House Tower House Wang Shizi", the main storyline takes place in the house tower house.
The story of the movie "Love Piggy Bank" also takes place in the house tower house.
Li Zhixiong, after graduation, hit a wall everywhere in society, not only did he not find a job, but he also had to "gnaw the old" for a living, and even couldn't fall in love because he couldn't pay 3 cents.
To add insult to injury, he couldn't even afford to rent an attic, and faced the dilemma of living on the streets, a complete poor ghost.
Zhao Xiyuan, who believes that "there is no free lunch in the world", in order to gather wealth and even not fall in love, he does his best to save money, a national treasure-level miser.
One day, such a man and woman met .......
Li Zhe (Li Zhixiong) was woken up, and last night because he couldn't find a job, he was irritable and drank alcohol, bottle after bottle, and fell asleep outside the house when he was drunk.
"Excuse me?"
Woken up, he rolled over and sat up, looking embarrassed, he rubbed his head that hurt a little after a hangover, and looked at the girl on the opposite rooftop who seemed to be calling him.
Blocking the glare of the sunlight with his hand, he heard the girl on the other side say, "Excuse me, can you give me those?"
"What?" Li Zhe didn't know.
"I mean the empty bottles. ”
"Oh....... Li Zhe didn't care too much and picked up the empty beer bottle next to him.
"This?"
"Yes. ”
"Take it if you want, right?"
"Wait a minute, please. ”
The girl has short hair in a shawl, a green coat, a pull-up of jeans, canvas shoes, plain, clean and neat clothes, her eyes are full of agility, and her stubbornness reveals cuteness.
She drank the raw egg in her hand, threw the eggshell into the flower pot, took a few steps back, and with a whoosh, crossed the distance between the two rooms and jumped from the opposite rooftop.
Li Zhe: "......!"
He was directly stunned.
The girl picked up the beer bottles scattered on the ground one by one and put them in the green satchel, and snatched the last empty bottle from Li Zhe's hand with a confused expression with a smile.
"Thank you!" the girl smiled and said thank you, and was about to turn away.
"Excuse me. ”
"What?"
Li Zhe couldn't help but ask, "What do you want them for?"
"What else can you do, of course, you can sell it for money. The girl took it for granted.
"Huh!"
Li Zhe couldn't help but chuckle out loud, speechless. "How much can it be sold for, really. ”
But he didn't want the girl to come to him with the bottle in a swish, and the frightened Li Zhe's body moved back instantly.
The girl asked, "Do you know how much a beer bottle can buy?" 2 cents, three is 6 cents, 6 cents a day, how much do you say you can save in 365 days?"
"6 times 365 ....... While Li Zhe was still calculating, the girl had already said the answer.
"Two hundred and ten....... ”
Ying Bao opened her mouth, scratched her head, and said, "Is it more than two hundred and ten years?" ”
has a cute face, and there is no momentum in an instant.
Li Zhe couldn't help but smile. "Click, okay, stop. ”
"It's $219. ”
He walked over to the monitor and clicked on the replay, comparing it with the memory in his head to make sure there was nothing wrong.
"The previous shot passed, and then the scene from the previous shot was taken. ”
A 120-minute film may take thousands of minutes or more, most of which is useless content that needs to be cut out in the post-production stage.
Li Zhe's biggest advantage is that he has watched the original movie, and this movie is also the one he has watched more times, so he knows which shots to shoot and what kind of effect to shoot.
Therefore, he only needs to follow the development of the plot and shoot down scene by scene, and for a 120-minute movie, he only needs to shoot 120 minutes of effective content, and he doesn't need to shoot another minute.
Moreover, the movie itself does not have any shooting difficulties, no special effects, no martial arts shots, and even no big scenes, the plot all revolves around the hero and heroine.
Three months of filming time, but the workload is only a fraction of that of others, and the shooting work can be described as quite easy.
Shooting.
Ying Bao: "It's 219 yuan." ”
Li Zhe had to nod awkwardly.
"With that money, it should be enough to pay your water bill for a year," Ying Bao finished speaking, glanced at Li Zhe and left.
……
"Okay, click! ”
The staff immediately got busy, moved the equipment, packed up the props, and prepared to transfer, Li Zhe stood up and came to Yingbao's side, pretending to be serious. "Liying, good performance. ”
He thinks the director feels pretty good, well, the rightful little girlfriend.
Ying Bao glanced at him with a smile, turned her back arrogantly, and rewarded someone with the back of the head.
"Humph!"
