Chapter 242: First Arrival in the Painted Skin crew
In mid-October, the northwest has gradually begun to chill, and winter is coming.
It has been two and a half months since I returned to the crew of "Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" from the capital, during which Liu Dong's role has been completed for most of the time, and it will only be completed in half a month at most.
At this time, he came to a small county town located at the junction of Ningxia and Susu, where the crew of "Painted Skin" filmed.
The movie has an investment from Ningxia Film Studio, and it is also convenient to come here to shoot and someone to take care of it.
This is also the benefit of several investors, in addition to diversifying risks, they can be useful for the preparation, shooting and subsequent promotion of the film.
is not like "Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor", it doesn't matter if you are in Su, there are so many things to do if you blow up a mountain.
The start-up ceremony was held in the capital before the start-up ceremony, and Liu Dong hurried back to the crew of "Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor", and did not attend the premiere for the first time.
When they came to the crew, everyone had not yet set off, so Liu Dong went to Chen Jiashang to report first.
"Knock knock!"
Gently knocked on the door and entered, Chen Jiashang was reading the storyboard script, there was a bowl of beef noodles next to the table, flipping through the script with his left hand, and hanging in the air with chopsticks in his right hand.
"Liu Dong is here. Chen Jiashang put down the script and nodded at him.
"Director Chen, I'm here to report!"
"Have you eaten, I'll have someone bring you a bowl, do you want noodles or steamed buns?" Chen Jia, who was facing the elegant Chen Jia, picked up a chopstick noodle and sucked it into his mouth.
"No need Director Chen, I've already eaten it!" Liu Dong waved his hand.
"That's okay, you sit down first, wait for me to finish!" Chen Jiashang finished eating a large bowl of noodles in three or two clicks, pushed the bowl aside, and turned the chair to face Liu Dong.
"When I signed the contract, I was busy preparing for the crew and didn't talk to you much, originally I was going to invite Donnie Yen to play this role, but you know why I chose you later!" Chen Jiashang wiped his mouth and said.
If you want to say that the original actor was made stinky, how much Chen Jiashang hates Liu Dong, it is not enough, after all, his relationship with Donnie Yen is not very good, he is just a nodding friend, and he is only invited because he is more suitable in all aspects.
With the situation at that time, no matter how it was, it was impossible to insist on using Donnie Yen, even if he wanted to, the investors behind him would not agree.
Among the remaining candidates, only Liu Dong is more in line with the requirements, although he is a little younger.
"Thank you Director Chen for giving me this opportunity, I'm also sorry for causing you trouble!" Liu Dong hurriedly thanked Chen Jiashang.
As for apologies?
Anyway, "I'm sorry" doesn't want money, the characters are all gone, and there is nothing to lose by saying two innocuous sorrys.
"You don't have to thank me, you don't have to apologize, based on all the conditions, you are the most compliant among all the auditions, and you are also the most thorough analysis of Pang Yong's task, just by virtue of this, you can take this role!"
During a period of time, the role can be thoroughly understood through the script alone, which is enough to prove that Liu Dong has worked hard, which is also the biggest reason why Chen Jiashang chose him.
"Director Chen, you praise you too much, analyzing the script is the basic skill of every actor, if you don't understand the character you want to play, how can you play this role well!" Liu Dong said modestly.
Next, the two exchanged their views on Pang Yong, and Liu Dong reorganized the language of the plot in the original version, combined with some film reviews that still had impressions, but it was basically the same as what he thought before.
Chen Jiashang kept nodding his head when he listened, obviously very satisfied with Liu Dong.
Originally, he had some doubts when he learned that Liu Dong was going to make three movies at the same time, but now he is not worried at all.
can tell a character more thoroughly than the director and screenwriter, will such an actor slack off!
Chen Jiashang looked at the watch in his hand, got up and picked up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, "It's not too early, it's time to start, do you want to go together or rest in the hotel?"
"I'll go along too, see if I can help, and integrate into the crew as soon as possible!" Liu Dong said immediately.
"That's fine!"
When I came to the hotel lobby, all departments of the crew were already preparing, and they only glanced at Liu Dong who was following Chen Jia curiously, and then went on to do their own thing.
From their occasional conversations, Liu Dong also learned that the crew has been filming night scenes in the past two days, and it is no wonder that it is almost 8 o'clock Chen Jiashang still eats breakfast.
Not long after, the three leading actors, as well as the female No. 3 Sun Li, also came down from upstairs, and seeing that everyone had arrived, Chen Jiashang clapped his hands and introduced Liu Dong to everyone.
"This is Liu Dong, the actor of Pang Yong, officially joined the group today, everyone knows each other!"
Liu Dongchong nodded at the three leading actors, followed by a brief self-introduction, in exchange for a burst of sparse applause.
It's not that they don't welcome Liu Dong, it's just... I was so tired that I didn't have the strength to applaud.
"Okay, get ready, let's go!"
There was no motivational speech, they were all old fritters, and they set off directly to the filming location, a desolate desert on the outskirts of the county.
Liu Dong also took Xiao He and them into the car, a single van, second-hand Pochanghe.
The filming location is not far from the hotel, and there is no traffic jam in the small county town, so it takes less than half an hour to arrive.
arrived at the destination, and without waiting for Chen Jiashang to speak, everyone in the crew consciously began to prepare.
The temporary dressing room was set up, Chen Kun and a few actors went in to put on makeup, and the other group performers casually put on armor and head coverings outside.
The armor they used for filming looks like it's all made of fine iron, which is much heavier than the leather armor in "Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading".
Fortunately, the weather is not hot now, otherwise it would be uncomfortable.
Not only Liu Dong was idle, but the two heroines Zhao Wei and Zhou Xun also moved a chair to sit on the side, and a small table was set up next to it, on which they ate and drank.
But the distance between the two of them is far enough!
If it weren't for the fact that the sun wasn't too big now, I guess I would have to get a big parasol.
The pomp is big enough, but who makes the family the four big flowers, a huge Chinese entertainment circle, and they are the top among all the actresses.
Besides, women, do you expect them to stand here for a day?
On the other side, Sun Li moved a small horse to sit down, turning her head from time to time and talking to the assistant, talking and laughing.
Seeing that the filming hadn't started yet, Liu Dong stepped forward and said hello to Sun Li, "Hello Sister Li, I'm Liu Dong!"
"Ahh Hello!" Sun Li was obviously a little overwhelmed by Liu Dong's greeting to her first, and Liu Dong had a lot more scenes than him.
"Sister Li, we still have a lot of rival scenes, and I have to trouble you to match the lines when I have time!"
Now Sun Li is even more confused, Liu Dong and Zhao Wei have a lot of rivalry scenes, why do you want to find yourself, is it difficult to ......
"Speaking of which, Brother Chao and I are still alumni, but he is a few years earlier than me, and I often hear teachers talk about him at school!"
"Ahh Are you classmates with Deng Chao?" Sun Li said with some uncertainty.
"That's right, Yuzhang Yuying School, didn't Brother Chao go to junior high school there!" Liu Dong said with a smile.
Hi... It turns out that this is the case, the two of them are fellow countrymen and alumni, and Sun Li, who lost money, still thinks that Liu Dong has something to think of her!
