Chapter 108: "The Wrong Car" is being filmed

(Ask for tickets on Monday!ask for tickets!ask for tickets!ask for tickets!Important things to say.) )

The comfortable days of the sonorous threesome came to an end after Wu Cheng entered the crew, Deng Lijun resumed work from rest, and Lin's mother followed Lin Qingxia to the crew.

The crew is located in the military village on Xinyi Road in Taipei, and some places have been re-set by Longxiang Film Company, so it took a lot of effort to transform this military village.

The military village, on the island side, refers to the residence set up by the government that retreated south to the island after the civil war between the two parties in order to accommodate the defeated army and the families who came with them.

But most of them have now migrated.

The entire crew, except for Wu Cheng himself, as well as Leslie Cheung, Huang Baiwu, and Da Renhua, the other staff members are basically from the treasure island.

The leading actor is still Sun Yue, Sun Yue, Wu Cheng doesn't know much about this person, but only because after watching this drama, he knew about this person, and it was with this "The Wrong Car" that he won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor that year. is forty-six years old this year, and his acting skills are absolutely fine.

The heroine has become Lin Qingxia, Lin Qingxia has only debuted for three years, and she is only twenty-one years old this year.

Wu Chengcheng's heart is Li Liqun, he is only twenty-four years old this year, and he has no acting experience, one person has to play two characters, one is an adult Uncle Man, and the other is Uncle Man's son Ah Ming, and these two people have a lot of roles, which tests his acting skills very much. Originally, Wu Cheng wanted to change someone else to act, but thinking that this guy would still be a little famous in the later life, he came to him and signed him by the way.

Wu Cheng was going to tweak/teach him by hand, and then call him to Xiangjiang for training.

For example, today, the brokerage company is thinking about setting up its own artist training class next year, and grab a new artist with wireless, so as not to be constrained by wireless in the future, and then let him go to training.

In addition, the supporting actress of this film, Sister-in-law, actor Jiang Xuan is also a problem, she is only twenty-seven years old now, and the roles he plays in the film are from young to middle-aged, and then to old age, which is a very test of acting skills. Of course, it also tests the masquerade's makeup skills.

As for the musician Shi Junmai played by Leslie Cheung, and the sissy agent played by Ren Dahua, Wu Cheng is not too worried. Because Wu Cheng is very familiar with these two, he has a lot of movies they have acted in in his mind, but he really can't do it, so he tunes/teaches them according to those pictures.

……

"Director Wu, these four are the composers Luo Dayou, Hou Dejian, Chen Ziyuan and Li Shouquan that you want me to find. Yu Kanping said, and said to the four: "This is Mr. Wu Chengwu, the director and investor of this play." Don't look at Mr. Wu as young, he is in Hong Kong, but he is a very famous director and filmmaker, novelist, musician......"

Hearing Yu Kanping praising Wu Cheng there, Luo Dayou smiled and said: "I don't know the rest, but at Miss Deng Lijun's solo concert broadcast by Xiangjiang TVB, I have learned Mr. Wu's piano techniques, and I also like the songs that Mr. Wu wrote for Miss Deng." ”

The other three also nodded in agreement, Wu Cheng's ability in movies, they are not very clear, but they have heard of his talent in music.

Wu Cheng looked at the four people in front of him who were not too old, the eldest was Hou Dejian, and the youngest Li Shouquan was still a twenty-one-year-old hairy boy, but his talent could not be denied.

In fact, for these four people, except for Luo Dayou, the other three Wu Cheng don't know much, and he knows that the existence of these three people is because he has watched "The Wrong Car" and found it from the cast.

Among the four, the one he values the most is Luo Dayou, this guy is a very prolific musician, and not only high-volume, but also high-quality.

The most familiar "Childhood", Wu Cheng has been listening to the school's radio since he was a child, as well as "Love Song 1980/1990", "Your Look", "Queen's Road East" and other songs that Wu Cheng once liked very much.

Therefore, it is the wisest choice to sign Luo Dayou to his own company.

If the first three are still more awesome behind the scenes, then Luo Dayou is a powerful figure in front of and behind the scenes. Such a character, how could Wu Cheng be willing to give up lightly.

At this time, Luo Dayou has just begun to show his talent, and if he waits a few more years, if he wants to sign him, it is estimated that the price he needs to pay will be higher.

Facing the recognition of his musical talent by the four people, Wu Cheng was somewhat embarrassed, but this embarrassment only disappeared in a flash, and then he smiled: "In this film, I wrote two songs, but the work of arranging, as well as other songs, needs the help of four people." ”

Written by Wu Cheng...... It should be said that he copied two songs, one is "If the Wine Sells Nothing" and "Please Follow Me", but he just wrote a brief score and arranged the music, and he needed their help.

Hou Dejian smiled and said: "Please rest assured Director Wu, we will work hard, and it is our honor to be able to work and communicate with talented people like you!"

"With the help of such talented people as the four of you, I'm not worried at all. Wu Cheng looked at them with a smile and said, "You can adapt it slowly, this play will take at least two months to complete, and the post-production is estimated to take another month, so don't worry!"

After a pause, Wu Cheng said again: "Let's get together in the evening! ”

"Yes, it's our pleasure!"

The four of them nodded in agreement, especially the youngest Li Shouquan, who looked excited.

……

"Take the wrong car, the first scene, the first shot, start shooting!"

Huang Boming was pulled by Wu Cheng to record the drama on the spot, of course, these two positions, for many people, are small roles. But don't underestimate the seemingly inconspicuous positions of scene notes and drama management, their understanding of the crew is stronger than average.

For example, when filming starts, if you don't understand the script and which scene the director is going to shoot, then this scene is not a qualified scene record. If you want to be a good scene reporter, you need to understand the script and keep up with the director's train of thought, because sometimes there will be emergencies, and the director may shoot another scene at any time.

And the drama affairs, although the affairs are very cumbersome, are equivalent to participating in the planning of the whole film, which is definitely considered training for a newcomer.

Although these two positions are somewhat thankless positions, Huang Baiming can feel that Wu Cheng is cultivating him. Otherwise, why call him a screenwriter to do this?

In the first scene of the film, the dumb uncle and his wife are warm in their cottage decorated with wine bottles, which is a very warm scene. Although they are poor, their lives are very steady.

This kind of scene is not difficult for Sun Yue, and the whole picture is shot to the end, and there is no misery. Wu Cheng didn't let them do it all over again, because he rented four cameras and shot from four different angles, not afraid of running out of material.

Although he likes to compare the original work, this kind of scene does not have to be the same as the original, as long as the meaning expressed is similar, then it is fine.

Wu Cheng will no longer make the low-level mistake of 'it must be the same as the original'.

Moreover, it is basically impossible for a set as large as the entire military village to be exactly the same as the original. As long as it looks and feels right, it's done!

Indoor shooting can be covered with a black cloth to match the lighting, but for outdoor shooting, the next scene needs to be shot again in a good light in the morning. Of course, it is also possible to have lighting at night. However, Wu Cheng thought that it was better to try the real light in the morning before making a decision, and to make the most perfect and real thing if he wanted to do it.

Yes, next, Wu Cheng directly let the baby appear, and when the dumb uncle picked up the baby and went home, the happy energy, as well as the annoyance of the dumb uncle's wife Liu Zhilan, were all vividly played by the two of them, worthy of being an old drama bone.

When the neighbors came to watch and help the dumb uncle carry the child on his back, the dumb uncle's wife Liu Zhilan sat aside and smoked a cigarette, and Li Liqun's Uncle Man appeared on the stage and played against Jiang Xian, who played the sister-in-law, Wu Cheng directly shouted 'card'. "Ah Qun, let go a little, be natural, don't be nervous, when you play against Sister Jiang Xuan, you want to do something wrong to a man, but when you face it, you look at it left and right...... Makeup artist, paint the makeup on Ah Qun's face a little darker, add a little bit of beard, yes, what I want is that sense of vicissitudes, understand?"

"I hate it, don't call someone else's masquerade, call someone a Kan!"

A big man actually pinched his orchid fingers and stomped his feet to be coquettish there, Wu Cheng covered his forehead helplessly, and finally looked at Ren Dahua not far away, and shouted: "Ah Hua, if you don't know how to act when you go back, just follow our makeup artist...... Oh no, it's Can, you know?"

Ren Dahua smiled and agreed, and then the entire crew couldn't help laughing.

The makeup artist Ah Can saw that everyone laughed at him, but he didn't think he was angry, he still pinched his orchid fingers, twisted his 'little waist', and put makeup on Li Liqun.

In fact, this makeup artist, Ah Can, is the one who can best understand the makeup effect that Wu Cheng wants among all the makeup artists. Except for some sissies, Wu Cheng felt very good.

Wu Cheng, who was waiting for Li Liqun to put on makeup, suddenly saw that two women, one big and one small, walked into the studio under the leadership of the staff, Yu Kanping saw them, and said to Wu Cheng: "Director Wu, that little girl is our little actor Wang Guxian, and the one next to her is her mother......"

Wu Cheng nodded and said, "I'll go talk to them, and when the drama starts, you will be in charge of the camera, and I'll look at the effect when I look back, if it's okay, I'll hand over the exterior scenes to you to be responsible for filming in the future." ”

"Director Wu, this ......" Yu Kanping was a little apprehensive and a little moved.

Originally, he thought that he was giving Wu Cheng the assistant director, but it was just a blow to Wu Cheng, a young man, after all, he was young and vigorous, where would he hand over power lightly.

But where did he think that Wu Cheng actually valued him so much, which made him a little stunned for a while, but he was also a little moved in his heart, and he felt a sense of joy to be recognized and valued.

"Don't be mother-in-law, it's okay or not, it depends on your results this time!"

"Please rest assured, director, I will work hard!"
