When these haode comments reached the ears of Han Sanpin of China Film Group, Han Sanpin was very worried, and called Li Xiaole to persuade him to participate in less pre-publicity activities, Han Sanpin's words were very meaningful.

"Xiaole, you still have to keep a low profile, we Chinese have always appreciated doing things quietly, humble people, when humble people succeed, everyone will give warm applause for their duck-like efforts, even if they fail, they can't laugh at them."

You're a little too high-profile right now, and if you talk about your goals publicly, there's a big hidden danger, and when you fail, everyone knows that you've failed, and even if you succeed, many people won't praise you for finally achieving your goals, and they may only remember your pride. ”

Li Xiaole listened to this, just smiled, didn't explain much, he understood that Han Sanpin was for his good, but Mr. Han didn't believe that he could get a box office of 200 million, this was to give himself a preventive shot in advance.

After all, everyone has a different style of handling things, as long as his own movies can be good, he Li Xiaole doesn't care about throwing himself out, anyway, he has a clear set of things in the entertainment industry, and he can grasp the proportions well.

In the midst of controversy, the time soon came to late October, and Li Xiaole arranged everything in an orderly manner, determining the costume styles of several leading actors, renting shooting venues, setting up indoor sets, and producing 21 thick and exquisite storyboard scripts.

A director once said that the movie is a combination of the director's personal joy, this sentence is very reasonable, although it is also a "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", but Feng Xiaogang and Li Xiaole filmed, the style is completely different.

The intuitive difference here is the color of the lens, Feng Xiaogang's film feels very simple, lively but very nostalgic, making the viewer feel like entering a warm and nostalgic cabin, warm and calm.

And Li Xiaole's movie picture does feel a distinct sense of vigor and vitality, as if it can be brought into a green wilderness, and the spring breeze feels blowing, which makes people feel intoxicated.

All of this is thanks to the credit of the behind-the-scenes art team, Li Xiaole only needs to put forward the idea, and the art director Xu Zhen can present the picture in his mind in various ways.

After everything was arranged, the crew of "If You Are the Truth, Do Not Disturb" arrived except for the cameo actors and held a start-up ceremony.

After the start-up, Li Xiaole did not rush to let everyone start filming, but began to rehearse the work according to the convention, unlike before, this time the story is mainly based on emotional exchanges, and the delicate degree of interaction between the characters is far more than the previous "Crazy Stone", so the rehearsal process is much more detailed, and the entire script has to go through 7 times.

During the rehearsal, all the actors have to get together to play against each other, read the monologue aloud, and smooth the whole plot several times, which is the rule of mainland film shooting.

However, everyone is strange that there is an actor who makes an exception, that is, the leading actor Ge You, he did not participate in the rehearsal for a whole week, but has been lying on a comfortable recliner, resting leisurely with his eyes closed, no matter who in the crew talks to him, he doesn't care.

People who are engaged in film and television know that the nickname "Uncle Ge" has a double meaning in the circle, one is that Ge is especially kind, and treats ordinary audiences like an uncle, and his popularity is excellent.

But there is another meaning, which few people are willing to mention, that is, after Ge You became famous, when filming in any crew, he had an "uncle" style, he didn't care about people very much, as long as he didn't work, he would lie on a recliner and rest and communicate with many others.

This made the other actors who worked hard to participate in the rehearsal a little unhappy, but Director Li Xiaole gave Uncle Ge the privilege, and specially transferred Xiaohu from the props team to Ge You, who had only one assistant, as a personal assistant, and served him tea and water.

This Xiaohu, who has been in the Beijing Film Studio for more than 10 years, scolded while serving this Uncle Ge: "Damn...... The big-name actor is amazing, when he played "The Great Saman", you didn't deserve to lift your shoes. ”

Lao Jiangtou also saw this situation in his eyes, so he pulled Li Xiaole aside after finishing work one day, and kindly suggested: "Director Li, you can't be too used to being an actor, when you really go to the play, you won't be able to command." ”

Li Xiaole frowned, first walked over and looked at the sofa chair where Ge You was sitting, and noticed the concave shape on it and immediately understood, Uncle Ge is different from Jiang Wen, although he is a big name, he is very good at talking, he did it for his reasons, came back and patted Lao Jiangtou's shoulder with a smile:

"It's okay, Uncle Ge is in a special situation, I'm measured."

Lao Jiangtou's kindness was not reciprocated, and he stopped talking angrily, Li Xiaole didn't worry about this problem, but walked over and lowered his head to the ear of Ge You, who was lying on the chair with his eyes closed, and asked softly: "Uncle Ge, do you think these actors are okay?" ”

"Quite good, quite good...... Ge You, who had been resting, opened his eyes and smiled weakly: "I think, you can build a character tonight." ”

"Okay, let's try it." Li Xiaole also saw that Ge You's state was almost adjusted, and agreed with a smile.

If you want to make the actors in an aiqing movie have a chemical reaction, you must first become familiar with each other, so in the evening after the rehearsal, Li Xiaole called the three main actors, including Sun Li, Leslie Cheung, and Ge You, to his room and began to "establish roles".

The so-called "building roles", that is, several main actors also chat together, but they have to chat in the way of the characters in the play, such as Ge You is Qin Fen, Sun Li is Liang Xiaoxiao, and Zhang Guorong is Li Xiangshan, and then answer what they are actually thinking when they say certain lines to the other party, what emotions they have, and what they really express.

In this way, several "characters" can understand each other, and there will be a tacit understanding when filming, which is far better than the feeling of starting to play opposite scenes directly after reading the script.

"First each of you reads the script separately, you will ask questions at any time, and you have to answer my questions with the state of the characters, understand?" Li Xiaole explained to the three leading actors.

"Understood." The three actors all nodded, but whether it was Zhang Guorong or Sun Li, they all had some doubts about whether Ge You, who had been a big name for a few days, could read his script well.

But when Ge You picked up the script, casually read out the lines in it and began to "build a role", everyone was surprised to find a phenomenon.

Although he didn't participate in the rehearsal at all, when Ge You used Qin Fen to speak, the other three could easily hear what he wanted to express in every sentence he said, and it was very clear.

But when it's Zhang Guorong's turn, everyone will misunderstand his meaning in one of the three sentences, and Sun Li is even worse, basically speaking, giving people a very vague feeling, such as Sun Li simply using Liang Xiaoxiao to laugh at the role: "I'm not available now." ”

After hearing this, Ge You thought for a moment and thought that she was saying, "She has time, but she hates me and doesn't want to see me." ”

Zhang Guorong felt that it was: "Xiaoxiao definitely wants to be asked out, but because it is a girl who wants to save face and asks the other party to beg her, she will agree." ”

But Li Xiaole himself simply felt that Liang Xiaoxiao meant: "She just has no time." ”

This gave Li Xiaole a headache, this is a typical "vague expression", looked at Sun Li and asked: "Sun Li, what does Liang Xiaoxiao think at this time?" ”

Liang Xiaoxiao has a very closed personality, afraid of getting hurt, and worried about what trouble she will encounter when she wants to come out, so she is a little hesitant, just looking for an excuse to give herself time. Think about it. Sun Li stared at Li Xiaole pitifully with innocent eyes, and said a little apologetically: "Director Li, did I understand the role wrong?" ”

"No, your character's response is very accurate......" Under the puzzled gaze of everyone, Li Xiaole waved his hand, touched his chin with his hand and pondered, and quickly figured out what was going on.

Sun Li has no problem figuring out the role, but she can't express it clearly, the reason is actually that the character of this character is much more complex than the role he played before, which exceeds the limit of Sun Li's acting skills at this stage.

As for Zhang Guorong...... This actor also has acting problems, his problem is in his Chinese mouth, Chinese is not refined and his weak voice seriously affects their expression of emotions and understanding of the meaning of the other party's lines.

Zhang Guorong himself is actually very dissatisfied with himself, he has been thinking with an unbelievable expression, always feeling that his lines are incredible, others can't hear the meaning, how can he be so much worse than Ge You's expressiveness, he has no such problem in Wang Jiawei and Chen Kaige's movies, how can he have it as soon as he arrives at Li Xiaole?

This makes him have to wonder if it is the director's own ability?

Li Xiaole also noticed Zhang Guorong's thoughts, and he was not surprised, in fact, this is not surprising, the "Farewell My Concubine" that these two actors collaborated on before was Zhang Guorong taking the lead, and Ge You cooperated as a green leaf, while this "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" is the opposite, with Ge You as the main character and Zhang Guorong as the supporting role, and the role has been completely reversed.

When Ge You became the leader, the real gap between Zhang Guorong and the multifaceted flaws of his acting skills was clearly revealed.

Ge You's acting skills are too strong, it is easy for the actors in the rival scenes to be suppressed, Zhang Guorong needs someone to mention it at this time and improve his shortcomings.

Li Xiaole would not be stupid enough to say that he wanted to teach Zhang Guorong acting skills, he just called Sun Li over and said in a calm tone: "Sun Li, let's do it, I'll tell you about your problem, you ponder ......."
