Chapter 244: Crying
A few days after Li Pingbin's return, maybe everything went smoothly, maybe Xin Baiqing and Hu Jingfan gradually entered the state. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info or maybe Grange Zhuang himself wanted to open it, anyway, Fei Mu's version of "Spring in a Small Town" has long been set as a classic, and his remake of "Spring in a Small Town" itself is a copy, and copying is a fake. So from the beginning he lost, but there was no burden.
In short, since then, the filming progress has started to speed up, and in less than half a month, Huihetang's scene will be almost the same, if it hadn't rained for two consecutive days, I'm afraid the crew would have already transferred to shoot the exterior of the ancient city wall.
"Where did you die, you made so many calls and didn't answer?"
As soon as the phone was connected, there was a roar from my girlfriend on the other end. Wang Dalun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "I was dragged out by Uncle Cheng to drink, and I forgot to bring my mobile phone, you have nothing to do in Guangzhou, right?" β
Today he was dragged by Ah Cheng to drink again, but he forgot to bring his mobile phone, and when he returned to the hotel, he saw that there were seven or eight missed calls on it, all of which were from his girlfriend, which startled him, and thought that something had happened to his girlfriend, so he quickly dialed it. But hearing that she is so angry, it is estimated that there should be nothing wrong.
Really.
"I can't call you if it's okay!"
Wang Dalun finally breathed a sigh of relief. What do you say about his girlfriend? Although Fan Ziyi is a southerner, she has the atmosphere of a northern woman, and she is very arrogant. But occasionally the nerve tie will become very "made", such as sometimes insisting on pulling him shopping, insisting that he sit by his side when watching TV, or refusing to hang up when he is on the phone, until the phone is out of battery, etc.
But fortunately, he has long been used to it, if his girlfriend is not so noisy every once in a while, he will feel abnormal. So he hurriedly admitted his mistake, this is his experience with his girlfriend in the past few years, whether she is unreasonable or not, you just admit your mistake, otherwise the more things are going on, the more unclear it becomes, and in the end he has to bow his head.
A series of cold and warm questions, such as whether Guangzhou is hot or not? Did the commercial show go well? When will you be back?
"I thought, I'm going to buy a car."
As soon as he calmed down his girlfriend's babbling arrogance, he heard his girlfriend on the phone in a very firm tone once again bring up the topic of buying a car.
Obviously, he didn't buy it for him this time, he just bought a second-hand Pajero from He Cong. My girlfriend just passed the road test before going to Guangzhou, and it is estimated that she will be able to get her driver's license in half a month. Having learned to drive, the idea of owning a car for themselves is also normal, and at the moment they are not bad for money at all.
But Wang Dalun still hesitated slightly, and said cautiously: "Do you think that if this is not the case, I will drive Pajero back and use it for you when the time comes, okay?" β
The condition of his Pajero is still quite good, even if it is driven on the streets of the capital, it is somewhat stylish.
"I don't want second-hand ones."
The girlfriend was really arrogant, and she also said with a heartfelt voice: "Your car is a Zhejiang license plate, drive to the capital, what should I do if I inspect the car every year in the future?" More than 1,000 kilometers of road, once a year, back and forth, you are full! β
"Is it okay to change it to a license plate in the capital?"
This Pajero drove for a while, he really liked it, and he did want to drive the car back to the capital to use, as for the original little Xiali, either sold as a second-hand car, or drove back to his hometown, usually the farmhouse to buy vegetables or something. As for the license plate and car inspection, he really hadn't thought of it before, and he didn't know much about it.
"I don't know! Anyway, I figured it out, I'm going to buy a new car. β
"That's it!"
Hearing his girlfriend's resolute attitude, and that she was still buying her own car, Wang Dalun finally agreed.
After all, it is not as good as at the beginning of the year, the salary of "Spring in a Small Town" is twenty-five, and 100,000 yuan was paid in advance, and all of them will be in place after the completion, and next month there will be 500,000 endorsement fees from He Cong's company, and Boss Yao's cabinet endorsement contract has also been renewed this month, and the endorsement fee has risen to 450,000 yuan per year, and it will also be in place at the end of the month, which is 1.2 million. After deducting commissions, it will also cost more than one million to get it.
As for "Manhole Gaier", which has signed a contract, because it is a small-cost production, Chen Daming has a tight hand, and the combined salary of him and Zhao Baogang is only 300,000, Brother Bao is 100,000, and he is 200,000, which is a friendship price.
When all the money is in place, he can completely clear the suspicion of eating soft rice. And he suddenly thought that his girlfriend's twentieth birthday was coming next month, which was a big birthday. When my girlfriend was eighteenth birthday, they had no money at that time, and their birthdays were very shabby.
"Really? Why, what ......."
Don't look at Fan Ziyi's tough tone on the phone, but when she heard that Wang Dalun agreed, she immediately happily kissed him several times on the phone.
To be honest, Wang Dalun was very emotional when he heard that his girlfriend was so happy. The girlfriend wants to have a family background, to have good looks, to be famous, and to earn more than him, it is really not easy to be with him for so many years as a poor boy.
"And what car do you like? Well...... How about Hiromoto? He continued.
In these years, the choice of buying a car is not too wide, and luxury cars like Mercedes-Benz and BMW can easily cost seven or eight hundred thousand millions, and they don't have to think about it, their economic strength is not affordable for the time being. Other cars, imported ones are not very affordable. As for the domestic ones, the mainstream models are roughly FAW's Audi, Shanghai Volkswagen's Passat, Dongfeng Nissan's Fengshen Bluebird and Guangzhou Honda's Accord. He calculated that whether it was price or style, the Guangzhou Honda Accord, commonly known as "Guangben", was relatively suitable for his girlfriend.
"Hmm...... Actually, I've already taken a fancy to a car, it's a BMW's ......"
"BMW?"
Wang Dalun was taken aback, this was beyond his expectations and what he could bear.
"But don't worry, the price is not very expensive, I asked about the early 400,000s." Fan Ziyi knew that the name BMW was indeed a bit shocking, and quickly explained.
Although the early 400,000s are a lot more expensive than Guangben, they are acceptable. But he thought about it carefully, it seems that even the lowest-end BMW 520 on the market is about six or seven hundred thousand, and what kind of cars are in the early 400,000s?
"The BMW MINI is the kind of boxy, a bit like a jeep, the color is purple red, the roof is white, and it looks very beautiful. I went to Guangzhou for a commercial performance this time, and the senior executive of the female company who was responsible for the reception here drove this kind of car, which is especially suitable for girls. β
Wang Dalun understood that what Fan Ziyi said turned out to be MINI Coolpad, in fact, this kind of car is not called BMW MINI, it is a British brand car, but it was acquired by BMW. The name of BMW in China is very well-known, in order to raise the price, it is called BMW MINI.
"Can you buy such a car in the capital?" He didn't seem to have seen this kind of car in his life, and he was a little uncertain.
"Yes, I asked, and there are BMW stores in the capital." Fan Ziyi was sure. She also heard it, her boyfriend didn't object, and her tone was very excited.
"Okay! When I get back, we'll pick it together! Wang Dalun said very cheerfully.
"And when will you be back? I ......" Fan Ziyi originally wanted to say if her boyfriend could come back on her birthday, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't say it.
"Come on, I guess if everything goes well, it'll be a week."
He has the last scene left here, and he transferred to the ancient city wall to shoot exterior scenes, and he doesn't have many scenes, at most three or four days of scenes.
"Really?" Fan Ziyi was very pleasantly surprised.
"Of course it's true, I'll be back before your birthday anyway. This car will be my twentieth birthday present to you. He laughed.
Speaking of which, he really has to thank Grange Zhuangzhuang, his brain was enlightened all of a sudden, and the progress of filming is swishing, otherwise if it follows the kind of progress at the beginning, I am afraid that it will not be completed until the end of October.
"Ahh β
ββ¦β¦β
Wang Dalun was speechless, if he pretended not to agree, he would definitely have to quarrel again. What's more, the money is in the palm of her hand, and he can't do it even if he wants to surprise her!
"Oh, Sister Hua helped me take another play this time." After a burst of numb Qingqing, Fan Ziyi said again.
"Didn't you just pick up a copy of "The Dust Settles"."
""The Dust Settles" won't start until March next year, and there is still half a year, so I can't be idle!"
"What kind of play?"
"It's an urban love drama called "Give Me a Mother". Hey, guess what I'm playing? β
"I won't let you play my mother."
"You guessed it, I'm just playing the kid. Mom, and a mother of two. Hahaha...... "This girl giggles heartlessly on the other end of the phone.
Wang Dalun said bitterly: "You are only twenty years old, are you sure that you are suitable to play your mother?" β
"It's not the first time I've acted, and even if I count this time I'm already a mother for the third time, at most, my makeup is a little more mature."
The first two times were costume dramas, and this costume drama was already old, and it was normal for the ancients to be mothers in their teens. But this is an urban fashion show, and she is also the mother of two children, can this be the same?
Wang Dalun secretly slandered himself, let out a perfunctory sound, and said, "Who are you cooperating with this time?" β
"Jiang Wen's younger brother, Jiang Wu!"
It is said that it is really annoying to have a famous brother, Jiang Wu is also Wang Dalun's elder brother, graduated from the 90th grade of the film school. In 99, he won the title of Best Actor at the Hawaii International Film Festival with "Brave New World", and then became even more famous with his flamboyant "Bath", known as "China's Forrest Gump".
In terms of popularity, Jiang Wu far surpasses Wang Dalun, and has already ranked among the ranks of quasi-first-line stars in the mainland, but because he has a more famous brother, everyone is still used to calling him "Jiang Wen's younger brother - Jiang Wu".
Wang Dalun listened to his girlfriend talk about the content synopsis of "Give Me a Mother" on the phone, which is actually a very bloody story, Fan Ziyi plays a rich lady in Hong Kong, and Jiang Wu plays a wife who ran away and took two children to work hard. Then the rich lady lost her memory, mistook the contractor for her husband, and regarded the two children as her own children, so everyone lived happily together. Until the rich lady regains her memory, and the wife who ran away suddenly comes back, and then all kinds of tears. Force.
Anyway, it's a hodgepodge, with both wealthy grievances and love-hate hatreds, and at the same time mixed with the story of Notting Hill. The producer invited the popular actor Jiang Wu and the new Xiaohuadan Fan Ziyi to play the starring roles, just to make money.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The evening passed slowly, and before I knew it, the sky was dark.
Tonight's scene is the last scene of Huihetang, and the staff are all nervously busy. The theme of this film is gray tones, and the lighting of the night scene certainly can't be too bright. The gaffer commanded several of his men to climb up to the roof and adjust the brightness of the cold lights.
"Director Tian, you see if this will work, when Da Lun comes out, the camera moves slowly, and then stops in this position. I'm going to use a panoramic mirror for the whole shot. β
Li Pingbin discussed with Grange how to shoot later, and after nearly a month of cooperation, he gradually got used to the style of Grange, panorama, super long lens, and extremely calm spectators.
Grange Zhuang groaned slightly, nodded and said, "I think it's okay." β
Today's scene is Dai Liyan's inner monologue play, Zhang Zhichen's arrival made him see hope after a long illness, and he even told Yuwen that he wanted to take care of his body and live a hopeful life with Yuwen. But the scene at the little sister's birthday banquet completely disappointed him, he was very painful and weak, he knew the sacrifices that Yuwen had made for him over the years, he felt guilty about his wife, and even sincerely imagined: How good it would be if Yuwen married Zhichen!
But at the same time, he also longs for love, he can't do without the jade pattern, and he doesn't have the courage to give up the jade pattern, so he will face his own choice.
Tianzhuang Zhuang attaches great importance to this scene, and from his personal point of view, he is very sympathetic to Dai Liyan, a man who is actually powerless, so he will abandon the monologue of the jade pattern in the original version and use more brushstrokes to depict the character of Dai Liyan.
He put this scene to the end, just to let Wang Dalun enter the role of Dao Dai Liyan as much as possible during the filming process, and understand his pain, his helplessness, and his selfishness.
"Da Lun, are you ready?"
When everything was ready, Grange personally pushed the door in.
After Wang Dalun put on makeup, he didn't even eat dinner, and kept sitting in Dai Liyan's bedroom to brew emotions. Dai Liyan is a patient who has lost some kind of physiological function, he and Yuwen have been sleeping in separate rooms for many years, his bedroom is on the first floor, and Yuwen's room is on the second floor. He imagined that the birthday party in the hall was still lively in the plot, and even the laughter of Zhichen and Yuwen could be heard in his ears, and this laughter had been stimulating him.
Speaking of Wang Dalun who has been filming for so many years, he has been playing alternative emotions since he encountered a bottleneck in that trick, and now he can be said to be perfect. This time the substitution emotion is very simple, he just treats Fan Ziyi as a jade pattern, he puts himself in his shoes and imagines, one day a man who is better than him will appear next to his girlfriend, and his girlfriend is also in love with this man, but he can't bear to give up on him after taking into account the feelings he has been with for so many years, so what should he do?
To be honest, the pain was really indescribable, and he couldn't even imagine what he would do after he lost his girlfriend. People are selfish, and it takes a lot of courage to give up, and when he asks himself, the answer seems to be the same as Dai Liyan, he doesn't have this courage.
ββ¦β¦β
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he silently glanced at the bearded director standing at the door, stood up, and walked out with him. This seemingly impolite behavior made Tianzhuang Zhuang's eyes light up, he didn't say anything more, walked directly to the monitor, put on headphones, picked up the speaker and shouted: "All units prepare!" β
"Photography OK!"
"It's okay to get on the radio!"
βactionοΌβ
Wang Dalun didn't even adjust, he staggered slowly along the blue brick road in the back garden, he walked extremely slowly, his legs slightly apart, and his hands hung weakly at his sides.
The light from the cold lights on the roof spreads evenly into the garden, like bright moonlight. The garden is dotted with several centuries-old osmanthus trees, and on the opposite side is a high wall that was once white but has long been blackened and darkened by time.
Wang Dalun staggered to the wall and looked up at the wall, which was like a wall between him and Fan Ziyi. He finally hung his head weakly, and there was nothing he could do about what was happening.
At this moment, he seemed to be unable to distinguish between himself and Dai Liyan.
He turned around slowly, walking back like a walking corpse, one step, two steps, three steps...... His steps deviated from the blue-brick path from which he came, and the thick trunk of the osmanthus tree blocked his way.
He raised his hand and gently touched the trunk of the tree, his face slowly leaning up, and his face twitched for a while.
Pain, soreness, loss of ...... Once you lose your girlfriend, is it still interesting in your life? When he remembered that his girlfriend was snuggled up to another man like he had snuggled up to him, the smile on his face was still so happy, his heart was very sad, his heart was beating violently, and a hot thing instantly surged up his throat.
"Woo, woo......"
He finally couldn't restrain himself, hugged the trunk and whimpered, tears pouring down like a wellspring. He tried to keep his cries to a minimum, but his whole body was shaking, and the irrepressible energy in his body was hitting his vocal cords again and again.
He suppressed it vigorously, the sound of the deformation sounding extremely penetrating, and he even felt a throbbing pain in his diaphragm, and he involuntarily slid down holding the trunk, completely powerless, holding the trunk and barely squatting.
It wasn't until this moment that he really cried.
Behind the monitor, Grange Zhuang, who was wearing headphones, covered his mouth tightly and was already in tears. He has always sympathized with Dai Liyan, sympathized with his weakness, his powerlessness, at this moment he seemed to really look at Dai Liyan and touched his heart solidly.
Not only him, but also many people at the scene, photographer Li Pingbin's eyes were red, and he pursed his lips vigorously to stabilize the camera.
The old man Ah Cheng turned his head to wipe his tears with a pipe in his mouth, art stylist Ye Jintian, producer Li Xiaowan, Xin Baiqing, as well as lighting engineers, sound engineers, props, and scene notes, almost everyone looked at Wang Dalun with tears in their eyes.
The sensual Hu Jingfan covered her mouth even more, twisted her face, tears fell down like beads, and even leaned against the door frame and slid on the threshold.
"Click...... Pass! β
The grange trembled and picked up the horn and shouted reluctantly.
But Wang Dalun didn't seem to hear it at all, he was still squatting there crying, and when Xin Baiqing ran over to help him, his hand loosened, and he almost didn't sit on the ground.
