Gu Cheng and the girls carefully figured out the script for two days, and they also got to know each other a lot, as if they had become friends. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Two days later, "The Family of Gold Powder" was launched as scheduled.

Gu Cheng, who was present at the scene, had to admit that the director and producer of CCTV are still very good in terms of atheism: they will not cut off pigs' heads and burn yellow paper like Gangwan Production.

Everything was very bland, there was no sense of ceremony, and then it was the intense shooting.

Gu Cheng was the latest of all the actors to enter the preparation, and Director Li was afraid that there would be problems with his run-in with the supporting roles at first.

However, after only two days of filming and dozens of scenes, Director Li was a little relieved: Gu Cheng entered the state very quickly, and he could at least rank in the top three among all the actors.

In contrast, it is an important supporting role with a complex relationship between several characters, who are not well prepared, and the interpersonal relationships played are very pale. makes Director Li very unhappy.

This day was the third day of filming, and everyone took pictures until 11 o'clock at night.

This was an early finish, so everyone didn't have dinner, so they simply stayed together with supper.

"The Family of Gold Powder" does not have Gu Cheng's investment like "Meteor Garden", and the treatment of the crew is obviously much worse. Everyone is a thief, unpalatable shredded green pepper and pork with dried shrimp and winter melon, plus a box of steamed rice.

In the filming of state-owned dramas in 01, there were a lot of cases of black money in the producer's logistics. Because the salary standard of the central media is much lower than that of its counterparts outside, after a long time, some people naturally feel unfair, forming an unspoken rule that "the reimbursement of 20 yuan bento is actually only 5 yuan".

Of course, this kind of thing will definitely not affect the director and producer, and the logistics minions will prepare some special supplies to cover the eyes and ears of the leaders.

Gu Cheng didn't come to show off, and he didn't can't endure hardship, so he obediently ate unpalatable dishes for two days.

At this moment, he was about to find a place to eat lunch and chat with Cheng Kun and Dong Jie. An assistant came over to inform him and said that Director Li asked them to go to the office and chat while eating.

The three of them got up to leave. Gu Cheng stopped Cheng Kun in vain, took his bento over, and took it back to the logistics office with his own unopened one, and took out two more from a pile of separate bento.

The staff who distributed the bento did not stop Gu Cheng, but showed a look of luck.

Dong Jie wants to lose weight and only eats winter melon and shrimp, so all this is none of her business, and she didn't react to the meaning behind it.

Cheng Kun was very discerning, weighed the changed lunch, and showed a playful smile to Gu Cheng: "I can't see it, you can be a man." ”

Gu Cheng smiled kindly: "The pure person can clean himself." The people here, I don't think they will cooperate for the rest of their lives, so why offend people to change anything. ”

Cheng Kun's expression changed slightly, and the previous depression of dissatisfaction also dissipated a lot.

Gu Cheng's meaning is obvious: Brother doesn't care about anything here, he forced me here from above.

After changing the lunch, the three walked into Director Li's office. Director Li was also eating, motioning for them to sit casually. Everyone is not welcome, sit down and open the lunch box and eat.

Director Li took a bite of the crab roe lion's head and gave the three of them a question: "Xiao Gu, Xiao Cheng, you two are the most skilled in the group." You have also seen everyone's performance in the past two days, do you have any opinions? ”

Gu Cheng and Cheng Kun glanced at each other and said conservatively: "I think it's good, everyone is quite into the play, they enter the role quickly, and the character positioning is good." ”

Director Li looked to the other side: "What about you, Cheng Kun?" ”

Cheng Kun said humbly: "I also think it's very good, the performances are in place, and occasionally there are some slightly exaggerated places, which is also the need for background foreshadowing." ”

Director Li sighed slightly: "Don't you think that everyone is too superficial in figuring out interpersonal relationships?" Each person's image shaping and personality traits are very accurate when taken out individually. But the attitude between people is simply the same. ”

Gu Cheng and the others were slightly stunned when they heard this, looking puzzled.

Director Li had to explain a few words, and everyone suddenly realized that this was indeed the case.

"Xiao Gu, I'll take your role as an example - of course, I'm not saying that your Jin Yanxi is not good at acting, it's just that Jin Yanxi has the most complete rivalry with everyone, so I'll take you as an example. Jin Yanxi is the seventh in the Jin family, and there are three brothers and three sisters above. But should his attitude towards the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother be the same? Is the harmony between him and the fourth sister, the fifth sister and the sixth sister the same scale?

You look at the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions", Jia Baoyu also has four sisters of Yuan Ying's exploration, his slight admiration for Yuan Chun, his respect for Yingchun is not far away, he never gets tired of looking at Tanchun, and he loves the spirit of cherishing spring, how layered? ”

Hearing these lofty words, Gu Cheng and Cheng Kun couldn't help but take a slight breath.

There is a world of difference in the difficulty of playing a role in itself and the interpersonal attitude of a character towards all the other characters involved.

The former tests the skill of a point, and the latter tests the whole face. To achieve this level, the most important thing is the team chemistry between the main characters, not the individual acting skills.

Especially when a drama tries to use a complex wealthy family to depict an entire era, this difficulty rises to the peak.

For example, the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions", which was used as a benchmark by Director Li.

Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li had no acting experience at all before they played Lin Daiyu/Xue Baochai. But the final gestures of those actors have a natural grace, and they are also very good at each other. After the film is completed, who doesn't say that this is a classic that is difficult to surpass for decades?

Director Li's appearance in "The Family of Gold Powder" this time is a rare opportunity. He worked hard to reach the height of the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions". As for whether the strength of himself and his actors is enough, he has no bottom.

Cheng Kun had just unraveled some of the grievances with Gu Cheng, and at this moment, after listening to Director Li's lofty thoughts, he couldn't help Gu Cheng speak: "Mr. Li, I think the question you asked is too difficult. Before the filming of "Dream of Red Mansions" started, it took the actors two full years to live and study together in the "Grand View Garden", asking each other for advice and figuring out, before they reached the later height. We have been getting the script for less than two months today, and it is really difficult to perform such a sense of hierarchy of interpersonal relationships in a wealthy family of a big family. ”

Cheng Kun's words are indeed from the heart. Because he knew that if he still played Jin Yanxi today, he would not be able to meet Director Li's requirements.

"The Family of Gold Powder" in another time and space is the male number one played by Cheng Kun, and after the film was filmed, senior evaluators said, "Jin Yanxi doesn't need to be ranked seventh at all, the third is enough." His three older brothers should be merged, and his three sisters should be merged, because his attitude towards all his brothers and sisters is the same. ”

In fact, don't say that Cheng Kun can't do it, even the actors in the Chinese film industry can't do it.

For example, two or three years later, the masterpiece "Infernal Affairs", known as "the last actor group of Hong Kong films", Andy Lau, Liang Chaowei, Huang Qiusheng, Zeng Zhiwei, and the Golden Horse actors. But no matter how the actors in the play show their acting skills, they can "grasp clearly what kind of character they are, what their attitude is towards the boss, what their attitude is towards their brothers, what is their attitude towards the enemy's undercover, and what is their attitude towards their own women".

It is necessary to subdivide the attitude towards buddies A, B, C and D...... The five strings in his head have to rise to twenty, and even Andy Lau and Liang Chaowei can't do it.

All the modes of industrialized flow filmmaking have not been worked out so finely.

The only way to do this is to go to Hollywood; And you can't find the eight major publishers of the "water-fall" model. You have to find people like Miramax who specialize in high-quality award-winning independent films, and learn from the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" to "grind one piece for three years".

This thing is like winemaking, the work of lewd soaking and fermentation is not in place, and the gods can't handle so many dimensional nodes.

This understanding was thorough, and Director Li was very discouraged: "Alas, the budget is still not enough." If the main station can really support my drama like it did for "Dream of Red Mansions" back then, and give me three years to grind, I will also make a masterpiece! ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Director Li still has the ambition of "making a masterpiece": "Why don't we try it like this - tomorrow we will no longer follow one scene at a time." According to the chronological order of the script, the first two episodes were filmed intensively. Then let the people in the later stage make it whole, and put it for everyone to look at and feel when they finish work, and figure out the interpersonal relationship, what do you think? ”

Gu Cheng has little experience, so he doesn't think there is anything wrong with this.

Normal TV series filming is differentiated according to the scene, for example, after the lighting and set photography of a certain room is arranged, several groups of scenes concentrated in this scene are filmed, and then the place is changed. In this way, everyone has more time to brew emotions, and the director and cinematographer also save time for arrangement.

If it is filmed according to the timeline of the script at one time, it is not nothing, but the cost will increase. The advantage of this is that in some dramas where the relationship between the characters is very complex, most actors can form a unified concept of the interpersonal network, and then subtly follow this setting.

The interpersonal relationships conveyed by the two dramas are far richer than what can be expressed in a dry script. After all, no matter how verbose a script is, it is impossible to write "how is the interpersonal relationship between male X and XXX/YYY/ZZZ" in every detail.

But the difficulty of doing so is also considerable, especially for some characters who have complex interpersonal relationships at the beginning, and need to play against many colleagues in a short period of time, and the gestation time required to enter the character's interpersonal relationships will be greatly compressed.

Dong Jie, who has not spoken, said worriedly after listening to Director Li's thoughts:

In this case, there will be a lot of pressure on Ah Cheng - I don't care, anyway, in the first few episodes, Leng Qingqiu only knew Jin Yanxi, Ouyang Yujian, best friends, classmates, and mother. But everyone from the wealthy family of Jinfu has to figure out the interpersonal relationship with dozens of family members at the same time as soon as they come up, and their brains are not messed up? ”

was reminded by Dong Jie, Gu Chengcai changed color slightly, and thoroughly understood the difficulty.

Director Li also knew that his temporary increase was a bit difficult, so he discussed sincerely: "I don't want to make "Dream of Red Mansions" seriously. Xiao Gu, I just want to see 'Jin Yanxi's disobedience to her father's discipline and her mother's disobedience be different, her personal relationship and dissuasion to each brother are also different, and her intimacy with each sister is also different'. You can figure it out for yourself and divide this level, and as for the specific level, I don't care to you - I just need to see the level. As long as it is separated, other actors in the back will be able to 'choose sides and subdivide the characters' according to these two episodes. ”

"Then I'll give it a try." Gu Cheng quickly went through all the family members who had rivalry in his heart, and gritted his teeth and agreed.

"It's too sloppy!" Dong Jie and Cheng Kun both regretted Gu Cheng's blind confidence.
