Chapter Ninety-Nine: Big Coffee Helps

"The Great Detective" started so quietly. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info did not hold any start-up press conferences, nor did they have any start-up ceremonies, let alone invite the media to report on them. Huairou Film and Television City is so big, and it is not uncommon to have an extra crew. Just filming quietly, without media reporters or anything to disturb, Gu Wenwu thinks it's good.

"Okay, pass, Yang Peng, let's eat." Another scene was completed, and Gu Wenwu waved his hand to end a morning's shooting.

Why does everyone like to find good actors? Because a good actor can really save a lot of things. You don't have to spend a lot of time telling them about the play, instructing them how to act, and you won't repeat the filming one by one but still can't pass. Gu Wenwu was lucky that he met two good actors.

To be honest, it's cool to watch the best actors compete with each other, especially as a director, and you find that the actors' performances coincide with your ideas. This is also one of the joys of making movies.

This is the third day of filming of "The Great Detective". Everything has been on the right track, and the crew has become smoother after two days of running-in. Gu Wenwu's instructions can always be completed in time, and the crew's food, clothing, housing and transportation are also arranged in an orderly manner. In short, in the past two days, the shooting went smoothly, and nothing went wrong in other aspects. Gu Wenwu wanted to maintain this state, but he didn't know if he could do it.

Halfway through the meal, Gu Wenwu felt the vibration of the mobile phone in his pocket, took it out and looked at the caller ID, he didn't care about eating, and connected the phone.

"Hello Director Gu, I'm Xia Qing." A nice female voice came.

"I know, Assistant Xia, have you arrived in Huairou?" Gu Wenwu said.

"Yes, we just entered Huairou Film and Television City, Sister Gao Wa said that you should tell me the address, and then we will go directly." Xia Qing said.

"No problem." Then Gu Wenwu said the address in detail several times, and after making sure that the other party remembered it, he hung up the phone.

At last year's Bazaar Charity Night, Siqin Gaowa agreed to play a cameo role in "The Great Detective", and Gu Wenwu naturally remembered it. When the movie started, he called to ask Siqin Gaowa about the schedule to see when she would have time to come to the crew. Siqin Gaowa obviously didn't forget about it, and gave the time very happily. That's when her assistant called to ask about the filming location.

Since it is a cameo, there are naturally not many scenes. Because of this kind of friendly cameo, there is generally no need to pay for it. However, a coffee of Siqin Gaowa's level naturally can't be too hasty in the role given. Therefore, Gu Wenwu gave her the role of Fu Mo and Watson's landlord - Sister Gao.

There are only a few scenes in the whole movie, all of which happened in Building B 221. According to Gu Wenwu's prediction, if it goes well, one afternoon will be more than enough. After all, everyone is such a good actor, and these scenes are not difficult scenes.

"Xiang Kai, tell someone to guard outside, and once Teacher Siqin Gaowa comes, bring her in." Gu Wenwu said to Liu Xiangkai on the side.

"Okay." Liu Xiangkai nodded. He is one of the few people in the crew who knows that Siqin Gaowa is going to make a cameo. Because when discussing the shooting plan with Gu Wenwu yesterday, Gu Wenwu revealed it. After the shock, all he had left was excitement.

His current relationship with "The Great Detective" is both a glory and a loss. If "The Great Detective" can become popular, then his first step into the film industry can be regarded as a solid step. Only when the foundation is laid can the development be smoother. If "The Great Detective" pounces, then the impact on him will also be great, and he will have to bear the title of an assistant director of the street movie in the future, although the movie hit the street may have nothing to do with him, but others don't think so.

Invite a big name to come and make a cameo, although it doesn't seem like much on the surface, after all, it is only a ten-minute scene that lasts to death, and it doesn't have much impact on the movie itself. But when it comes to the later stage of movie promotion, it will play a big role. You don't see that once our Huang Sect Leader made a cameo in a movie, obviously it was a cameo, but the filmmaker forcibly promoted him as the protagonist, and only Huang Sect Leader and the heroine Chen Qiaoen could be seen on the promotional poster. As for the male protagonist himself, whocare?

What level of people can be invited to make a cameo appearance, which also reflects the strength of the crew and the potential of the movie. Seeing that the mountains and rivers are red, do you say Liu Xiangkai can be unhappy?

When Siqin Gaowa arrived, some people hadn't finished eating, while others had already finished eating and were resting. When Siqin Gaowa came in with the drama, the originally noisy filming scene suddenly quieted down. Some people even rubbed their eyes to see if they had recognized the wrong person.

Like Cheng Daoming, in addition to the driver, Siqin Gaowa brought an assistant. But that doesn't affect anything. Because there are many people with them, it does not mean that that person's status is high.

As soon as Siqin Gaowa came in and saw such a scene, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Director Gu, do you have flowers on my face, why do you all have this expression?" ”

"Haha, the main thing is that Teacher Siqin Gaowa, your aura is too strong, and you have calmed us down." Gu Wenwu also smiled when he heard this. After speaking, he walked to Siqin Gaowa's side, clapped his hands to gather everyone's attention, and said, "Let me tell you, Teacher Siqin Gaowa is here as a guest this time, and everyone welcomes the arrival of Teacher Siqin Gaowa." After speaking, he was the first to applaud. There was a burst of applause.

"Teacher, did you have lunch?" Gu Wenwu asked.

"Eat." Siqin Gaowa said.

"That's okay, then teacher, you take a rest first, Xiang Kai, go and bring the teacher's lines, Zhang Li, move a chair for the teacher." Gu Wenwu said.

After a while, Siqin Gaowa sat next to Cheng Daoming with the lines. Cheng Daoming was also looking at the lines at this time. As the absolute protagonist, he has the most lines, so naturally it is impossible to memorize them all, so he has to be familiar with them first, and then memorize which paragraph to shoot. Many eyes converged on the two, but the two of them took it calmly. They're used to it for a long time.

"How did you feel after two days of filming?" Siqin Gaowa doesn't have many lines, so she doesn't have much pressure, and she has time to chat with Cheng Daoming in addition to reciting.

"How do you feel?" Cheng Daoming asked rhetorically.

Siqin Gaowa didn't care about Cheng Daoming's rhetorical question, she thought for a while, and said: "I don't feel much, I just think that this Gu Wenwu is young, and his prestige in the crew is quite heavy." ”

This is the most intuitive feeling after Siqin Gaowa came. Whether it is from the fact that as soon as Gu Wenwu clapped his hands, everyone turned their eyes to him, or from the fact that his orders were immediately implemented, Siqin Gaowa understood that this director in his twenties was in this crew, and he was probably a man of his word. It's not easy.

"He is a director, screenwriter and investor, and his prestige is normal, but my biggest feeling in the past two days is not that he has prestige, but that he is very special." Cheng Daoming said slowly.
