252 Experience
"When acting, you don't always have to look at the camera, just pass by, what should you do, morning glory, digging the ground, don't be afraid, it's a camera, not a tiger, don't eat people." β
"I've said it all, don't eat people! Why are you staring at it!"
The first big problem I encountered after the film started filming was about the extras that the film needed.
After all, this is not a film and television city that makes people feel like they have traveled through the times in a minute, but a secluded mountain village far away from the bustling world, even if all the actors with lines are recruited from other places and transported up the mountain by car, it does not mean that all the people who appear in the movie can do the same, it is inevitable to find someone to act as a background board group performance in this mountain village, for this reason, before the crew settled in, the village party secretary also held a mobilization meeting for the people in the village.
Of course, this kind of mobilization has aroused the enthusiasm of many people, but it does not make them qualified extras all at once.
Especially the four or five sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls, when they were recruiting, they rushed to the front line, and as soon as the filming started, they all became shrunken wooden people.
Wang Wei, the assistant director in charge of actors' issues, couldn't even take care of his favorite scallion roasted lamb chops and caper sprouts in order to teach them to act.
A few of the girls were cheerful and generous when there was no camera, but once the lights were turned on, the lighting board was set up, the camera started to run, and the director shouted again, they didn't seem to know anything.
"Imagine that today someone in the village suddenly brings a flock of sheep to every family, what is your expression?
A group of happy and happy mountain village girls.
"Good, start shooting!"
A flock of stunned geese.
"Rub!"
Wang Wei didn't let this group of girls overcome their phobia of the camera for four or five days, and when they were in a hurry, the corners of their lips bubbled.
Gong Xingshu asked about his progress, and he could only smile bitterly.
"It's too expensive for people who have seen too little to communicate, but luckily they can understand me, and it took me two whole days for me to figure it out...... Yesterday, the village chief saw them filming, and said that he would call back the little girls who were studying in the town and working in the city, and the people who studied in the town would have to pay three sheep to perform, and if the people working in the city came back, we would have to pay an additional salary of fifty a day, and we would have to pay the road fee. β
"Don't rush, take your time, just use these people now. β
Smacking his lips, Gong Xingshu, who was squatting on the ground, dragged Wang Wei and asked him to squat down and knock the dried sweet potatoes together, the kang head of the villagers is absolutely green and pollution-free.
"Think about it, the condition we set for these group performances is that there will be two sheep after the performance, right, if you come back with those more expensive girls now, what will these girls do now? We don't look up with them on weekdays, and we still use other people's houses to film, not to mention anything else, you also drank goat's milk cooked by others yesterday. β
Yesterday, in order to teach them that they didn't eat hot rice, a group girl brought him a big bowl of hot goat's milk.
Wang Wei sighed himself, he didn't expect what Gong Xingshu said, but this unexpected difficulty and cumbersomeness made him a little frustrated.
"From today onwards, you will be like this, find a camera, and follow you with the machine, telling them that we are filming the whole time, and I guess it will take two days to get used to it. β
"Come on, try it. I'm busy with them every day, and I haven't found the right one for my own play. β
Deputy Director Wang sighed, he obviously loves filming more than teaching a group of laymen how not to become demons and monsters in the camera.
"Lao Wang, you have to enjoy this process, right? Think about it, you just let these little girls who don't have much knowledge reveal such a breath of fresh air in my movie, how awesome it is!"
"Little girl, fresh air...... Hehe. Wang Wei glanced at Gong Xingshu and stuffed a dried sweet potato into his mouth, "We're going to shoot here for half a year, you should also pay attention to some people in the crew, don't go up the mountain and eat some small wild vegetables with your eyes closed after holding back for a long time, if something really happens, can we get out of this mountain." β
What Xiao Yecai refers to, Gong Xingshu understood it as soon as he heard it.
There are many young and strong men in the crew, and more young and middle-aged men in this village have gone out to work, leaving some daughters-in-law and children who take care of the family and some young girls who are very curious about the outside world.
If the two sides were on fire, with the degree of closure of this village, it could instantly turn into a bomb and blow up their entire crew.
The corners of his mouth were full, and the bearded man looked at his old buddy: "The staff in the crew are all familiar with it, and they all know the rules on my side, I will give them a good grip, and the little actors who come and go over there have to keep an eye on me." β
"Cheng, do I need to make a military order for you?"
Gong Xingshu hammered his old brother's shoulder.
Not far away, Chi Chi was practicing the fighting moves to be used during filming with the help of the action director, a navy blue padded jacket, black pants, and long braids turned into a bun on the top of his head.
Even such dirty clothes did not completely cover the girl's good figure, just before Wang Wei came, Gong Xingshu was squatting on this side chewing the original ecological dried sweet potatoes and admiring the original ecological beauties by the way, the more he looked at it, the more comfortable he became, his eyes narrowed, Wang Wei felt a bit like a big cat basking in the sun when he looked at him at first glance.
Now that the conversation was almost over, Gong Xingshu tilted his head to look at Chi Chi again, and looked at him and remembered something else.
"Xing'er is learning to do farm work, Chi Chi also has to find someone to teach, you see if any of your little girls can teach her, be bold and lively. β
Deputy Director Wang glanced back at Chi Chi, who was practicing his movements seriously, and wrote down this matter as a serious matter.
β¦β¦
The teacher who rescued (robbed) back ran away.
The man who went to chase Mr. rescued a girl who had been buried in the snow.
The rescued girl was sent to Mr. Teach's house.
The girl was so good-looking that as soon as she opened her eyes, she read out the words written by Mr. Teach.
Wu Tou'er said that the girl was his daughter-in-law who had never passed through the door.
Wu Tou'er said that his daughter-in-law, who had not passed through the door, would be able to teach the people in the village to read and write in the future!
The people in the stockade, out of their kind and simple nature and trust in Wei Congwu, did not delve into how this woman who was picked up from the vast snowfield became his fiancΓ©e inexplicably, and the above two things, of course Kawasaki Masako, who pretended to have amnesia, did not.
By the way, she's called Apricot now.
This village seemed to be lonely in the world, which made her feel inexplicably uneasy, but outside was the vast snow-capped mountains and the low temperature that could kill people, and she could only follow the people in the village to pretend to be stupid until she figured out how to get to her destination.
A bowl of coarse grain noodles was lying on top of a few pieces of radish and a piece of meat that I don't know what kind of meat lay on it, and the woman who brought this bowl of "sick rice" to Xing'er sat on the kang with her feet very familiar.
"Xing'er, you're almost all right. β
"Who is Apricot called?" The young woman with the bowl of noodles had her hair slightly disheveled, and a frostbite mark was written on her face with a blank look.
The older woman rubbed the tip of the big thick needle on her scalp, and continued to make the pair of straw sandals in the basket on her chest. β
"Oh. β
The young woman bowed her head and ate a few bites of noodles, first drank the soup, then picked up the radish in the bowl and ate it, and then ...... Her hand paused suddenly, picked up the piece of meat, and took a bite.
"It's so fragrant, have you eaten the apricots?"
"Ahh β
The young girl nodded and continued to eat the noodles, and out of sight, the woman showed a relieved expression.
"You say I'm here for him, but what about the others?"
"What's the matter, Xing'er, you only saw me yesterday, and you miss me again today?"
Wei Congwu strode in from outside the house, carrying a hare in his hand.
Faced with such an imposing man, the young woman who was given the name Xing'er shrank her shoulders a little frightened.
"No, I don't want to. β
Wei Congwu's gaze swept over the noodle soup bowl in Xing'er's hand and saw the uneaten half of the meat in the bowl.
"You literate women are really troublesome, think about me, you can run out of your house for me, why did you get into a twist with me when you came to me? Oh, by the way, Xing'er, you hurt your head, and now you can't remember me. β
Speaking of "I don't remember", the man's loss at that moment is so sincere.
Looking at the eyes of "Xing'er", her eyes had a little slight waves.
"Don't be too upset with you. β
She comforted the other party with words, and sure enough, she saw that the other party's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Okay, you have a good rest, let the sister-in-law stew the rabbit for you at night, and then add some good medicine, and your face will get better quickly." β
Wei Congwu leaned down, his hands propped up on the edge of the kang and carefully examined the face of "Xing'er".
"Apricot's" face turned red all of a sudden, and her eyes were lowered, like a shy little flower.
"Rest early after the noodles are finished, I know that you are used to it, you don't have to worry about eating and dressing, if you are bored, I will call a few little cubs to play with you." β
As he spoke, the man's expression became a little absent-minded.
"Hmm. β
"Apricot?"
Wei Congwu suddenly called her softly.
"Huh?"
The girl stared at him with wide eyes, and her watery eyes were full of him.
"For you. β
The man suddenly shoved something into her hand, turned around and strode out.
Outside the gate, Xing Dayan, the best brother by Wei Congwu's side, followed.
"How's that? Can this girl really be trusted?"
"Eat vegetables first, don't like meat, don't have any calluses on your hands, and really look like a pampered eldest lady. β
The corners of Wei Congwu's mouth choked with a smile, and the hand that had just stuffed something into "Xing'er's" hand gently rubbed his fingers.
"I still know how to read and write, and I heard my mother-in-law say that she speaks in a crepe. β
Xing Dayan drooped his shoulders, and he always looked unenergetic when he walked. Following behind the heroic Wei Congwu, he was like a shadow.
"But how did such a little girl get to the snowy mountains?"
"When Lao Cong sends us news next month, let him explore the city to see which family has lost a literate young lady. β
"What, if you find out, you still have to send people back?"
"Send it back?"
Wei Congwu suddenly laughed.
"When the time comes, I'll carry the sheep and the cattle and hire them directly!"
β¦β¦
Lying down on the kang again, Xing'er listened carefully to the surroundings to make sure that there was no one around, before opening her fist and carefully looking at what Wei Congwu stuffed into her hand.
A pair of tiny golden lilacs are so slender that they twist and break when pinched.
The young woman looked at them, the innocence and harmlessness on her face had disappeared at some point, and turned into a contemptuous sneer.
The tiger's mouth has a thick callus, the scar on his neck looks like it has been grazed by a bullet, and the side of his waist is bulging...... All of this shows that "Brother Wu" is not a simple farmer.
In such a strange place surrounded by snow-capped mountains, and with a person as not simple as Brother Wu, Masako Kawasaki's expression became serious.
β¦β¦
At the end of the day's shooting, others were busy packing up their things and preparing to go down the mountain to rest, and Chi Chi, who had taken off his makeup, stood on a ridge in the village and looked up at the snow on the mountain not far away.
At this time, Wang Wei led a girl wearing a big red cotton coat over.
"Chi Chi, this is Ye Ya'er, you just call her Ya'er. Ya'er, this is Chi Chi, the leading actor of our crew. β
Chi Chi had an impression of this girl, and on the day she first came, this girl circled around her for several days and praised her for being beautiful.
"Chi Chi, we all know you, I saw you fighting with a man yesterday, and you had a really good fight. β
Born here and raised here, the bud has a dark complexion, an apple red face, and a mouthful of white teeth, which makes her smile very infectious.
"There is a plot in our movie where Xing'er learns to do farm work, and the old book means that you should learn it firstβ‘β‘ and test it, and the sprouts are what we found to teach you. β
"Hello, Ye Ya'er, I'm Chi Chi, I'm really bothering you. β
Chi Chi said very seriously, through the observation of the past few days, she found that Ye Ya'er and these little girls not only have to learn to be a group performer, occasionally help the crew with chores, but also go back to take on most of the housework and farming at home when they have nothing to do, and they have to take time out to teach themselves in such a hard life, Chi Chi feels that he should express his gratitude and apologies.
"Ahh......h
Chi Chi's bowed head made Ye Ya'er very frightened, she rubbed her hands uneasily, looked at Chi Chi's slender white and slender hands, and then looked at her own black and red thick fingers, she was really embarrassed to reach out to hold the other party's hand.
Ye Ya'er was very frightened, Wang Wei was about to be infected by her.
"Okay, Chi Chi, this girl is handed over to you, you communicate well, I have to arrange to see those actors. β
Wang Wei walked out twenty meters and looked back, Chi Chi had already smiled and took Ye Ya'er's hand and didn't know what he was talking about.
Tsk, this ability, if it's a man, it's a scourge.
A few minutes later, Assistant Director Wang saw Chi Chi again in Gong Xingshu.
"In this way, I have time to exercise and experience life, otherwise you say that you get on and off the bus every day, and the rest don't have much time and experience to really experience something, and the safety factor in this village can also be guaranteed......"
Gong Xingshu stared at Chi Chi for a long time, and was finally persuaded by the girl, but he also put forward his own conditions.
Deputy Director Wang Wei, who was squatting on the sidelines and watching the whole process, could only express his heartfelt admiration in his heart, Chi Chi's ability not only made the girls quickly agree to hold hands, but also treated the men...... In other words, when facing Chi Chi, Lao Shu really compromised very quickly.
On this day, after the entire crew returned safely to the station, the core members of the crew knew a news that they felt unbelievable at first, and then completely understood.
From tomorrow, Chi Chi will live in the village where they are filming.
To be precise, she lives in her own luxury RV, but the RV is parked in a corner of the village, and she can be regarded as living in the village.
In fact, Chi Chi herself wants to live in a real tile house, since she experiences life, then her life must go deep into the details, but the safety and hygiene of those tile houses are worrying, she and Gong Xingshu compromised with each other a little bit, so they got the current result.
There is a nanny room in the RV, Yu Yuan and Du Mao discussed that one person will sleep in the nanny room, and the other person will follow the logistics vehicle up and down every day to bring food and daily necessities to Chi Chi.
In fact, Chi Chi didn't want to stay alone, but one of these two people pinched their waists and made a teapot to indicate that they were doing the work of assistants, if they were not allowed to do their duty, it would be better to open them directly, and the other took his mobile phone and said that he wanted to call her sister Gu to complain.
Yu Yuan's previous trick Chi Chi understood that she was playing with her character, and Du Mao actually thought of suing Gu Xi, which really opened Chi Chi's eyes.
It turns out that Gu Xi can still use it like this?
Girl, your fox and fake tiger skills are full marks.
Do you believe it or not, I pity that I am here, what should I do?
Well, I just thought silently in my heart.
In the face of such a speechless threat, our generation of legendary actresses really admit it.
At half past five in the morning, the chickens and dogs in the village had crowed, and before the sun had risen, Chi Chi had already gotten up and put on her clothes and walked out of her nanny car.
At this time, there was a sound in this village, but it showed an otherworldly silence, the snow-capped mountains were silent, the houses were silent, the sleeping people were silent, even the dewy grass and wheat seedlings on the ground, in the roosters and dogs, were silent.
Sneakers stepped on the village road, and Chi Chi saw a wisp of cooking smoke rising not far away, it should be someone cooking on a fire.
Ye Ya'er walked out of the room with a food bowl, and the girl running in a gray tracksuit appeared in her field of vision.
So early, actually running in the village?
The first thing to do in the morning is to make a fire, the second thing is to make breakfast, the third thing is to feed the chickens, and the fourth thing is to sweep the yard Ye Ya'er can't understand Chi Chi's behavior of running around the field in the morning when he has nothing to do.
Although it was not the first time she had seen this girl, she had been running or watching something every day since she had lived in the village, and occasionally she would even put on a scarf and run to the slope of a snowy mountain to watch the sun rise.
"Ya'er, your chickens have a good appetite today. β
Holding on to the fence wall of Ya'er's house, Chi Chi smiled and took out two pieces of chocolate from his pocket.
"Didn't we bet the day before yesterday that you could spin the mill forty times? β
Ya'er took the chocolate from Chi Chi's hand and said, looked at the package carefully, and then stuffed it into her pocket. The last time I ate chocolate was at her uncle's house in the city, a small black piece was put in her mouth, at first a little bitter, and then it was very sweet, so sweet that people can't forget it.
Now Ye Ya'er, who has two large pieces of chocolate, suddenly feels that the sky is different, the clouds are different, and now the girl in front of her seems to be different from usualβvery special and cute.
"I'll make you vegetable cakes at noon, I see that what others make is dry, I'll make it for you with oil!"
Obviously, he lost the bet, and now he can eat one more wild vegetable cake, Chi Chi smiled and thought that he had earned it.
"Okay, then let's eat together at noon, don't run away again. β
As soon as she heard that they were eating together, Ye Ya'er's face turned red again.
"I have to come back to cook, I can't eat with you. β
Chi Chi was still smiling.
"Then I'll help you cook, just try the tricks I learned from you to cook in a big pot. β
"Well, what's that going to do?"
When Yu Yuan came out of the nanny's car and shouted to Chi Chi Chi for breakfast, he saw Chi Chi and the group performers in the crew who were found from the village laughing across the fence.
By this time, the village had gradually begun to have the sounds of life, such as the symphony of pots and pans, such as the mouths of people calling for their own animals to come and feed them......
The sun rises, the loneliness fades, and a new day belonging to this mountain village begins, and a new day belonging to Chichi, a passer-by in this mountain village, also begins. 166 Reading Network
