"The Pianist of the Sea" touched countless Asian female surnames, and it did not have much box office, but the sales of DVDs should not be underestimated.

For women who like this film, the hero's pure childlike eyes are a big killer, and he will be captured when he stares at him.

In other words, the film is supported by actors a lot of the time, and its storyline is not surprising.

This requires the acting skills of the actors!

Since Wang Zijun said this, he often practiced his eyes in the mirror after getting off work, and he was confident that he still had a little talent and strength in pretending to be innocent and pure.

In the studio, a circle of staff surrounded Wang Zijun, and there were three cameras alone, recording his performance from different angles.

A camera was mounted on a rail car, and the machine, along with the cameraman, was pushed by the staff in an arc past Wang Zijun's side eye, and then slowly advanced.

Wang Zijun stood there, his eyes looking straight ahead, as if his lover was drifting away in the distance, and his eyes revealed endless loneliness and helplessness.

In fact, Wang Zijun is just a wall opposite, with spotlights, reflectors and cameras on the sides and behind, and there are no lovers at all.

The camera in front of him gradually advanced, and finally the camera was only half a meter away from Wang Zijun's face, and the wall in Wang Zijun's line of sight also became a camera lens, but his deep eyes never changed.

"Click!" The assistant director finally shouted and laughed, "Wang, your eyes are amazing!" I'm almost fascinated by you. ”

"Thank you." Wang Zijun couldn't help but rub his eyes gently, he had a pair of blue contact lenses stuffed in his eyes, plus he used his eyes to express emotions for a long time, and now the whole eye area is swollen, and there is always a feeling of dregs inside.

Returning to the chair in the rest area and lying down, Wang Zijun couldn't wait to get the contact lenses out, tears flowed profusely, and soon the circles under his eyes turned red. When I wipe it with my hands, my eyes seem to be irritated, and my tears flow more and more.

In the sum of the two lifetimes, Wang Zijun has worn contact lenses for the first time, and now he only sighs at Zhao Yazhi's greatness - Ah Zhi has been wearing contact lenses since she was in school, and she has really suffered for so many years.

"Close your eyes and don't move." Judy. Foster walked over and said, holding a cotton wool in his hand and gently wiping it around Wang Zijun's eye sockets.

"Thank you." Wang Zijun closed his eyes, feeling that he didn't add up to as many tears as he had shed these days. Although he has been filming for a month or two, he still can't get used to having a foreign body in his eyes. As long as the contact lenses are worn for too long, there will be a tearful collapse.

From a medical point of view, Wang Zijun has a slight allergy to that thing.

A few years ago, when filming "People and Ghosts", Wang Zijun also played a mixed-race, but the eye color at that time was made later. This time, in order to make the eyes more expressive, I can only bring my contact lenses to battle.

"Are you feeling better?" Two minutes later, Judy. Foster asked.

"Much better." Wang Zijun slowly opened his eyes and took Judy. Foster handed him the tea and drank it.

Judy. Foster had very few scenes (the director's version seemed to have more than the theatrical version), and with the addition of filming at the beach, it only took two days to get it all done.

After the filming, Judy. Foster was also in no hurry to leave the crew. Anyway, when I go back to Yale University, I am always pointed at, so it is better to stay in the crew and give myself a vacation.

"Wang, I suddenly want to be a director." Judy. Foster said.

Wang Zijun smiled and asked, "Why do you have such an idea?" ”

Judy. Foster said: "That could be a very interesting thing. ”

"Then you will be my assistant in the future." Wang Zijun said.

The film continues to be filmed, and Judy, who has an IQ of up to 140. After Foster became Wang Zijun's assistant, she made a lot of jokes, but she also learned quickly. Outside the studio, "The Pianist at Sea", which originally disappeared from the media because of the presidential assassination, re-entered the public eye.

A news article titled "Genius Girl Goes to California to Film, Chinese Director Hasn't Changed Heroine" appeared on the masthead, which claimed: "Because of his inappropriate words and deeds, an ordinary young man assassinated the president's Judy." Instead of reflecting on his mistakes at home, Foster participated in the filming of the new film by the Chinese director with a happy mood......"

The newspaper stands on the moral high ground against Judy. Foster's behavior was criticized, and even alluded to Wang Zijun, a playboy and Judy. Foster had an affair.

D&T's general manager, Frank, was overjoyed when he saw the report and immediately ordered the company's publicity department to fight back.

Unconsciously, the public's attention shifted from the quarrel between several newspapers to Wang Zijun's new film.

Inside the studio, Clarence. The founder of jazz, played by Williams III, walked up to the piano and, with great confidence, turned around and smiled defiantly at the male protagonist 1900, played by Wang Zijun, before placing the lit cigarette on the piano.

And then there's Clarence. Williams III's piano performance played Wang Zijun's "original" "the_big_hum" again and again.

The assistant director arranged the expressions of the actors in the audience, and Wang Zijun also acted while directing.

It's not the actors who often go wrong with this shoot, it's the cigarette prop used to show off the virtuosity of the piano.

According to the script, the flame is played just after the piano body is burned, and the soot burns a long section to show its subtle control over the music.

But that's not possible at all.

Because of actor Clarence. As Williams III kept playing, the vibration of the keys reached the body, and it didn't take long for the ashes from the cigarette to break off and fall to the ground.

So much so that the crew had to prepare dozens of cigarettes to light at the same time. Then it was put on the piano again and again, the soot broke or fell, and the cigarette footage added up to only two or three seconds before and after, and it took more than two hours to shoot. And Clarence, who was in charge of playing the piano. Williams III was also tired and sweating profusely from playing again and again.

Where the "gaochao" of the whole film is located, it took Wang Zijun two weeks to finish filming.

Contact lens allergies are not without benefits, and in the second paragraph of the piano fight, the protagonist 1900 was moved to tears by the sound of the piano. When Wang Zijun was acting in this paragraph, he didn't need to brew feelings at all, and said "I was moved", and tears came out of his eyes.

In the final stage of the piano fight, Wang Zijun pretended to play the four-hand version of "Wild Bee Flying", which was really uncomfortable. With Wang Zijun's piano level, he can't play this piece well at all, but many shots have to be frontal, and it is not good to hire a professional pianist as a stand-in.

It was not until mid-June that "The Pianist at Sea" was finally completed.

The soundtrack is naturally written by Wang Zijun himself, but no one doubts his composing ability. Throughout the movie, Wang Zijun has come up with several "original" piano songs.

Wang Zijun also has an important job, which is to ask a pianist to re-record the pieces played in the movie, after all, Wang Zijun and Clarence. Williams III did not reach the level of performance.

The final candidate was Bishop. Kovasevich and Fan. Cliburn. Both are top pianists in the United States, but the former went to London to settle down, and the latter has not broken through for nearly a decade and has retired from music three years ago.

When Wang Zijun had not finished the play, he sent the piano music to the two masters, and at the same time sent the script of "The Pianist at Sea", and promised to give a sky-high recording fee.

Money is sometimes very useful, and besides, this is a movie that shows a pianist, and Wang Zijun's fame is enough, so it didn't take long for the two masters to agree.

Bishop. Kovacevic was in charge of playing the repertoire of the protagonist recorded in 1900, Fan. Cliburn was in charge of playing the recorded tracks. However, the last four-hand ensemble, "Wild Bee Dance", was played by them sitting together.

In order to keep improving, the entire recording process was not carried out in the studio of Dragon Tiger Film Company, but spent money to record it with the top professional music recording company Terrac.

After paying hundreds of thousands of yuan, the copyright of the piano music recorded by the two masters belongs to Dragon Tiger Film Company, and the future movie soundtrack records only belong to Dragon Tiger Film Company.

In July, it took Wang Zijun nearly four months to finally complete the production of "The Pianist at Sea".

At the same time, Madonna's first record was finally released, and the album title of the record was her name - "Madonna".

In just half a month, "Madonna" sold hundreds of thousands of copies in the United States, which not only shocked the entire record market, but even Ron himself, who served as a record producer, was shocked.

Now there is a saying in the United States to describe Madonna: Madonna's live MTV performance made half of the people in the United States hate her, and the other half of the people love her to the point of madness.

"Do you hear, king? 410,000 copies, 410,000 bought in just two weeks! It's crazy......" Ron's voice echoed over the phone, like a fox ready to steal a hen and trick the whole litter home.

Yes, crazy indeed.

A newcomer who has just debuted, and his hastily completed record sold 410,000 copies in just two weeks. Other American musicians who had just heard the news also thought that the person who spread the news was a madman.

However, Madonna's beautiful face, bewitching figure, avant-garde defeat, and rebellious surname ...... has made countless young Americans madly obsessed with this "bad woman". Overnight, in the bedrooms of countless American teenagers, the stickers of other stars were torn off and replaced with a glamorous Madonna.
