Chapter 118: The crew starts up!

With the popularity of Xu Yang's new book, the third issue of "Variety Show" has been a great success, and Shi Fei's martial arts crew has also been formed.

On this day, Xu Yang took Jiang Ying, Su Wan'er, followed by Shi Fei and some staff of Shi Fei Film and Television, and took a plane from Haishi to Nansu City, the capital of Jiangnan Province.

The specific location chosen by Shi Fei is in a place called Dangshan Ancient Town in Wuxi, which has many ancient buildings, small rivers, and mountains not far away, which are very suitable for filming this kind of martial arts drama.

Before turning on the machine, it is definitely necessary to hold a start-up ceremony.

Although Xu Yang himself is not very interested in this, since he is an actor in it, he must respect Shi Fei, the director, and he has done it according to the whole process.

Speaking of which, Shi Fei's start-up ceremony is very traditional, in front of everyone in the crew, a table is placed as an offering, and incense candles, wax tables, tribute fruits, pig heads and other things are placed on the table, and then the producer's speech.

In this drama, the producer and director are Shi Fei, so he stood directly in front of everyone and said loudly: "There are many friends here who have cooperated with me, and there are some new friends who have joined in, here, I don't say much, I just hope that our drama can be filmed well, let's work together!"

After speaking, it came to the incense link, not everyone here went to the incense, but each department chose to go up a representative.

Within the crew, all departments are divided into: director, producer, actors, camera, lighting, field affairs, art, costumes, makeup, recording, props, transportation, editing, and logistics.

Therefore, the incense session will end in just a few minutes.

This is all the boot ceremony, and then, it's time to have a boot meal.

Many crews' start-up meals are separated according to various departments, but Shi Fei doesn't have this rule, you can sit wherever you want, as long as everyone eats happily.

At this time, Xu Yang really saw the approximate list of actors of the crew.

Script: "Xiao Li Flying Knife"

Genre: Martial arts

Director: Shi Fei

Screenwriter: Xu Yang

List of actors

Li Feiting: as (Li Xunhuan)

Zhang Huimin: Played by (Lin Shiyin, Moran)

Zhang Sheng: as (Long Xiaoyun)

Zhang Ting: Played by (Lin Xian'er)

Xu Yang: as (A Fei)

Liu Hao: as (Long Xiaoyun)

Su Wan'er: Played (Sun Xiaohong)

Liu Zhen: as (Old Man Tianji)

......

Since the completion of the recording of the first episode of "Variety Show", Xu Yang has not seen Liu Ruoning, a senior brother and a good friend, and now, when he sees him in the drama he wrote, he is also full of emotion for a while.

Although Li Feiting is the protagonist recommended by himself, he was able to come to the crew through auditions, after all, he has acted in martial arts scenes for so many years, and there are still no TV series that really need to integrate too many emotional factors, and besides, he has shot more movies than TV series.

This time, if it weren't for Xu Yang's recommendation, and Liu Ruoning appeared in the second half of the drama, Li Feiting would not have come.

During the meal, because everyone is an actor, therefore, I don't know whether it is intentional or unintentional, Xu Yang, Su Wan'er, Li Feiting, Zhang Huimin, Zhang Sheng, Zhang Ting These people sat at the same table, at this time, Xu Yang really saw Zhang Huimin and Zhang Ting in person, as expected, the appearance of the two of them is really high, Xu Yang believes that if they wait until they finish filming this drama, then the effect will be better than the one in the earth world.

In addition to them, Xu Yang also focused on observing the actor Zhang Sheng who played Long Xiaoyun, this person is indeed as Shi Fei said, he looks submissive and quiet, giving people a sour feeling of an ancient reader, but he also took a look at Zhang Sheng's audition performance, it is indeed ruthless enough, and his expression is in place, he is worthy of being a senior actor.

During the meal, Xu Yang clinked glasses with Su Wan'er and Li Feiting, and drank some drinks, but the others were not familiar, and he was not so attentive.

Everyone came here today, so Shi Fei didn't let everyone directly enter the filming of the role, but rested for one night in the booked hotel and filmed again tomorrow.

It stands to reason that when the general crew is established, a press conference will be held to increase the momentum of the show, but Shi Fei is different, he will wait until the whole drama is filmed, when the publicity is carried out, he will hold a press conference, and then he will broadcast the new drama he filmed, in this way, firstly, in order to take advantage of the hot news and add a fire to the ratings, and secondly, he does not want to face the interrogation of reporters all day long, saying where the plot is filmed.

In his consciousness, making a good drama is worthy of the audience, rather than increasing the topics of the crew anytime and anywhere, if there are more topics and more heated discussions, when the time comes, it will not be able to reach the level of audience satisfaction, wouldn't it become a deception?

It's also a good thing that the director has such a principle!

In this regard, Xu Yang raised his hands in agreement.

......

The next day, at 8 o'clock in the morning, the crew carried out the filming of the first scene, that is, in the inn, everyone talked about the imminent destruction of the magic knife door where Lin Shiyin was, and the actors in the field, in addition to those tricks, the important roles were the old man Tianji played by Liu Zhen, Li Xunhuan played by Li Feiting and Sun Xiaohong when he was a child.

There are some fights here, most of which are designed by Xu ** According to the memory of the drama Earth World and the martial arts director Liu Xiaofeng of the crew, before, Liu Xiaofeng didn't take Xu Yang's words seriously, after all, Xu Yang is just an actor and screenwriter in his eyes, but not everyone can be a martial arts instructor, and you need to have enough martial arts foundation.

In order to dispel Liu Xiaofeng's concerns, Xu Yang proposed to compete with him, and the result was naturally a big victory for Xu Yang.

Chen Mingdao's martial arts, since last year, Xu Yang has been practicing slowly, at the beginning, it was only to enhance his physical fitness and squatting steps, as time went by, Xu Yang also learned some movements that are not too difficult to learn, coupled with this martial arts master's views on martial arts, it is a simple matter to win Liu Xiaofeng.

In the martial arts world, with the current Xu Yang, he will also rank some places among them.

With that competition, Liu Xiaofeng was also convinced of Xu Yang, and besides, he was still the screenwriter of this drama, so as soon as some of the opinions of the two were synthesized, they designed a lot of moves that could represent Li Xunhuan's mastery and heroic demeanor.

There are not many scenes in this scene, Li Feiting was born as a martial arts actor, and he acted very well, but many of those fighting actions were not done properly, so it took more than ten shots to finally pass.

The first scene was filmed like this.

Subsequently, there was a series of scenes in which the Demon Sword Gate was destroyed.

There are too many scenes here, so Shi Fei was divided into a lot of shots to shoot, and on the first day of shooting, there was no shot that Shi Fei was satisfied with at 9 o'clock in the evening, and he told everyone to go back to rest, and Shi Fei was thinking about how to shoot this scene again.

Because Xu Yang and Su Wan'er appeared relatively late, the most of the previous scenes were the rivalry of Li Feiting, Zhang Huimin, Zhang Ting, and Liu Zhen, so on the second day, Xu Yang took Jiang Ying and Su Wan'er to play in some ancient towns here.

Jiangnan, in ancient times, was a holy place for beautiful women, but over the years, the quality of beauties here has also declined, after all, the former beauties have been married far away in Kyoto, the magic capital, and the outer regions, and the outstanding people left behind have naturally become more and more rare with the passage of time.

Here in Wuxi, by the mountains and rivers, the environment is very good, at a glance, the antique ancient buildings and the temples of the age, the pavilions as many as more than 10.

There was no scene between Xu Yang and Su Wan'er in the past two days, so the two of them walked slowly in the city with Jiang Ying.

Climbing the mountain, a few people are not interested, but when they come here, they always have to take something to commemorate so that they will not regret it.

Therefore, Xu Yang accompanied Su Wan'er to take some photos of her wearing various costumes.

Jiang Ying didn't know if it was because he had traveled too much in the north and south of the river, and he had no interest in these, or because he had lost his vitality because of his age, he was just watching from the side, his expression was very flat.

For her, Xu Yang has never explored everything that has happened to her, but just treats her as an ordinary agent of his.

There's more to playing than just taking some photos.

Next, Su Wan'er, Xu Yang, and Jiang Ying went boating.

After all, both sides of the river here are preserved ancient houses, and the width of the river is only two or three meters, and new hands who are not familiar with rowing skills are likely to collide with the boat.

For Xu Yang, Su Wan'er, and Jiang Ying, the three people who stay at the beach all year round, rowing is just a whim, and after having fun, the three of them went to eat around.

The meals in the scenic spots are much more expensive than those in other places, but Xu Yang and the others are not short of money, so they simply ordered a few dishes and started eating.

After solving the problem of food and clothing, a few people then thought about what to play?

Somehow, we came up with the idea of going to the temple together.

A few people came to worship not the land temple, the Buddha, the goddess of mercy and other immortals, but the Taishang Laojun.

The gods worshiped in this world of Xu Yang are actually the same as the gods in the earth world, the Taishang Laojun of the earth world is also called "Lao Tzu", and the Taishang Laojun in the Xu Yang world often refers to the Fushou Shenjun.

To worship him is to pray for a long life and good health for yourself and your family.

It may be because this is a scenic spot, therefore, there are many people who come to worship, and the whole process of worship, lighting incense, praying, bowing, asking for signs, and finally burning paper, this series of things is completed, and it takes more than half an hour to complete.

Ancient towns, temples, these places are almost the same, so after turning around again, Xu Yang and the three of them went back.

Xu Yang has a foundation in martial arts, and he is very confident in his role, but Su Wan'er is different, she has only learned martial arts movements for a few days, and for such a martial arts drama, the difficulty of filming is a challenge for her.

Therefore, after going back, she followed the martial arts instructor Liu Xiaofeng of the crew to learn some martial arts movements.

And Xu Yang himself was idle for a while.

When he was bored, he ran to the crew to see how Li Feiting and the others were filming.
