Chapter 503: If God Helps [Three Watches]
(100 monthly passes plus more, and there will be more updates later, exploding!)
After Zhou Kai saw Lin Han's Weibo, he couldn't help but wail on the bed in the dormitory, "Why do you want me to know this news! I have to wait for the winter vacation to see Mr. Lin's new book, and it's a short story!"
In order to warm up his movie during the Spring Festival, Lin Han must have released the novel at that time, but he never thought that his die-hard fans would complain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I said Kaizi, what kind of wind are you making again, come down and open the black, we still have a jungler. Li Wei, his roommate who was playing a game at the computer table below, raised his head and shouted.
Zhou Kai rolled over and climbed down from the bed, he sighed and said: "It's that Mr. Lin's "Immortality" is actually adapted from his own short story, but he has never shown it to us, I don't know why it is scheduled in February." ”
Li Wei said without replying: "Hahaha, let you read quickly, now there are no books to read." I'm slow to read, and there are still several books waiting for me!"
In college, Lin Han's science fiction novels have become the most popular after-school reading, and many people like to buy a copy of his novel and read it slowly in the library or café.
Unconsciously, many sister papers have also become Lin Han's readers, and in order to chase sister papers, another group of men have joined in, and after word of mouth, almost every reader spontaneously spread it to friends around him!
In the face of Lin Han's Weibo, Zhou Kai had no choice but to sigh, who asked him to chase Lin Han's book from the beginning, and read chapter after chapter, and now he is directly short of books.
Lin Han's screenwriting skills, coupled with his science fiction novels as the original book, many readers who were originally worried about "Immortality" can be regarded as relieved, and under this double insurance, the quality should not be a problem!
Zhou Kai, who turned on the computer, did not play the game, but logged in to the forum of the Hanlin Academy, and he wanted to know if there was a great god in the forum who could reveal the specific content of this novel.
"Science fiction about immortality? I read a revelation on Weibo that it was related to biology, could it be true?"
"Hurry up and ask that blogger, maybe there will be big news!"
"Eh, does Mr. Lin have to take a vacation after writing "Red Roses and White Roses", and he won't write a short story until February, and he won't write anything for a long time in between?"
"It's good to let Mr. Lin rest, he writes six or seven books a year, which writer is as diligent as him. I'm going to take a look at all the books that Mr. Lin has written before, and maybe I'll have some new feelings. ”
"Alas, in the days when there are no new books to accompany me, I am like a walking dead without a soul!"
"Have you ever wondered how a workaholic like Mr. Lin could rest for so long. I think he's either making "Immortality" on his own or writing a new book, which do you think is more likely?"
Although Lin Han is not interviewed often, readers are familiar with his character, and it is impossible to take a vacation and rest for such a long time between now and February.
As soon as this point of view was put forward, it was recognized by the majority of book friends!
"I think it's definitely going to be "Immortal", he was a film director before, and now it makes sense to go back and toss the movie. ”
"I'm more worried about whether the script will be too thin, after all, it's just an adaptation of a short story?"
"If it's director Lin Han, I will definitely support it, it's no problem to brush two or three times!"
"Same as above, maybe Mr. Lin is playing with tickets, and after playing the movie, he will come back to write a novel. ”
"There are too few clues on the Internet, Zhuo Wei's goods have a set of exposing other people's cheating, and exposing these serious contents will wither!"
"There are just no domestic sci-fi films to watch, if it is filmed, I must go to the cinema to support it!"
"That's it, now all science fiction films are Hollywood, and Mr. Lin has come up with it, and he has to make money just for his feelings. ”
These readers don't have much disgust, first of all, Lin Han did not officially announce himself as the director, on the other hand, the lack of domestic science fiction films is very serious, and they desperately hope that someone can come in to fill this gap!
……
The readers' buzz did not completely subside after a few days, but the reporters who wanted to wait for the rabbit had to give up.
Although Lin Han is indeed a hot person, he can't be interviewed if he doesn't show up, so it's better to squat at the rest!
At this time, Lin Han drove out, and he took the script back to the apartment where he lived before, where he was going to shoot the movie.
The advantage of using your own house for filming is that there is no cost, and you can arrange it as you like, anyway, you have less time to come and live, just find a housekeeping company to deal with it if you mess it up.
The house that has not been lived in for a long time still looks clean, and people come here every week to clean it, and everything is the same as before, which is much more homely than a makeshift studio!
The knock on the door made Lin Han come back to his senses, and when he opened the door, he saw that Wang Hao, who was pushing a suitcase, was followed by an unfamiliar face.
"This is what I call my good buddy Zhang Chengzheng, who has been a gaffer for more than ten years and has a lot of experience. Wang Hao said that they were the people from the production team behind the scenes, and they came to the shooting location first to see how the lights were played and how the cameras were filmed, which were all things to be done before shooting.
Lin Han stretched out his hand and shook hands with Zhang Chengzheng, he said with a smile: "Hello, I'm Lin Han, come in and talk." ”
"I hear your name a lot, and it's certainly a lot of fun to work with. Zhang Chengzheng is not a shy person, he quickly became familiar with Lin Han.
"I hope you don't change your mind in the future, I'm known as a tyrant on the set. ”
Lin Han pointed to the sofa over there, "Most of the scenes in the movie are carried out in this living room, we don't have a set set, do you think this pattern needs to change?"
While he was talking, Wang Hao had already set up the camera he had brought, and was adjusting the position at this time, while Zhang Chengzheng spread his hands: "The lamps I rented have not yet arrived, and it is estimated that there will be half an hour." ”
This money must have come from Lin Han, but they chose to rent the model.
The gaffer is also an indispensable role in film production, generally composed of a group of people, the gaffer arranges the lighting according to the requirements of the director and cameraman, and the assistant is the role of work.
In the industry, the gaffer is often called the "lamp master", whether an actor looks good on camera or not, the first thing to look at is the gaffer, not the photographer. Knowledgeable actors will have a good relationship with the gaffer, otherwise the characters filmed may be sallow or black.
Before filming, Lin Han, the director, took the storyboard script and began to discuss with the two of them, how each scene should be filmed, what the lighting requirements should be, at least the faces of each character should be clearly visible, and no one should show half of their faces.
After a few people discussed for a while, the rented lamps and lanterns were finally delivered, the rent of these tools is not cheap, the lamps are 500 yuan per day, the two cameras are 700 yuan per day, and the price of the on-site tape recorder is also very expensive, so Lin Han hopes to complete the shooting as soon as possible, otherwise the investment of 100,000 yuan is really not enough!
There were no actors, but several of them had a very heated discussion, Wang Hao's photography skills were unexpected, and they were no worse than professionals. And Zhang Chengzheng is also very experienced, when Lin Han, a novice director, was negligent, he corrected some unsightly shadows, underexposed or overexposed, insufficient lighting and other shortcomings.
In the midst of such preparations, the time came to November 21, which is the scheduled start shooting time for "Immortality"!
Of course, Lin Han didn't make a big splash about a boot ceremony or anything, he wasn't so high-profile.
was originally scheduled to start filming at 9 o'clock, but it was only around 8 o'clock, Xu Jiayan came to the scene early with the script and his makeup artist, and those Peking University professors seemed to have made an appointment and arrived a lot earlier.
"Professor Kong, Professor Deng, you are early! This is the leading actor of the movie, Xu Jiayan, who is going to play against you later, you can rehearse the lines now, and fight for it later!"
Lin Han's house became lively, the Peking University professors looked at the script one by one, and the make-up artist who was temporarily invited quickly applied makeup to them, and the small room was full of busy figures.
The story of this movie is very unique, but the shooting is not complicated, so Xu Jiayan is brewing emotions at this moment, other professors are all acting in their true colors, he must show his acting skills!
"Xiao Lin, do you have to say these lines as they are?" Kong Daochun found Lin Han with the script, his reading glasses were on the bridge of his nose, looking a little anxious.
Of course, Lin Han didn't expect these experts to memorize it word for word, he said: "Of course not, you can make appropriate changes, but the scope can't exceed the lines of the script, as long as the meaning is the same." ”
Kong Daochun breathed a sigh of relief, "That's okay, people are old, and their memory is not as good as you young people." ”
As for Xu Jiayan, he didn't have the ability to improvise his lines in the field of science, so he could only recite them in full, and at this moment he was pulled to the edge of the balcony by Lin Han, "Old Xu, when you shoot later, the rhythm will be controlled by you, and you will take them." ”
"Don't worry, I'll leave it to me!" Xu Jiayan still has this confidence, people with strong acting skills can infect the people around them, and then take them into the play together.
Now among these actors, the ones who really have acting experience are Xu Jiayan and two other women, one is a girl from the acting department of Huaxia Drama Academy, to play the role of a student, basically there are no lines, just a background board.
The other is the lover who plays the protagonist, who has always believed in what the protagonist says, she is a rescuer invited by Chen Jiaxuan, and she is not a well-known third-tier TV drama actor in the entertainment industry.
After all the preparations were ready, Lin Han began to command the surrounding idlers and others to exit the range of the camera.
"3, 2, 1, go!"
