Chapter 100: Filming in progress
"Attention, everyone, get ready to turn on!"
Ye Tian gave an order, and "Get Done with My Father-in-law" was officially launched, and Wang Jing next to him was stunned, it seemed that he should have said it.
In the first scene of filming the first scene at the villa, there were a lot of people on the scene, but in fact, only Ye Tian and Anita Mui appeared, because they were both newcomers, Wang Jin told the two of them at a glance, and Liu Dehua, Liang Chaowei, Liang Jiahui, Weng Meiling and others on the periphery listened very carefully.
"Wait a minute, you get out of the car, don't look at the camera, Ye Tian looked at the villa and marveled, that Miss Mei, you don't have to marvel, this is your own home, behave naturally, and say the lines one by one, OK?"
Ye Tian thought about the process and nodded, "No problem." β
Mei Yanfang said: "I'm okay with it." β
"Okay, all in place, action!"
Ye Tian drove the car and parked in front of the villa, opened the car door and got out of the car, standing in front of the villa in a daze, the camera was very close to him.
Fan Jianqiang: "Wow! β
Susie: "What's the point!" β
Fan Jianqiang: "You never told me!" β
Susie: "This is my parents' house, not mine." β
Fan Jianqiang: "I think it's your family's money that will be with you, especially Wu Fendan!" β
Susie: "As long as you like me, I like you, why care what others think." β
Susie: "It's okay, don't be nervous to come with me." β
Fan Jianqiang: "I'm not nervous. β
Hearing Ye Tian say the name Wu Fendan, Liang Jiahui couldn't help but smile, he played Wu Fendan, although there were only a few lines, but he was still very excited, in the dead of night, he figured out the characteristics of the character, and now he has more than a dozen appearance styles in his heart.
Strange, why don't you shout cut?
After a shot was taken, Ye Tian couldn't help but look at Wang Jing.
"Ah Jing, what's wrong?"
"Huh?"
Wang Jing looked at Ye Tian with a very embarrassed face, he thought that Anita Mui would NG, in order to show that he was prescient, the camera was not turned on at all, who knew that the first shot would pass so naturally.
"Tianzai, let's do it again."
Anita Mui bit her lip and blamed herself: "Did I do something wrong?" β
Ye Tian recalled the process, his acting skills had not yet reached the point of being superb, he only cared about himself, he remembered the lines that Anita Mui said, but he was not clear about his demeanor and movements, and he guessed in his heart whether the movements and demeanor were not in place.
"It's okay! It's okay! Do it again! Wang Jing waved his hand again and again, and he was embarrassed to admit his mistakes, especially in front of the two newcomers.
Ye Tian and Anita Mui returned to the car, Wang Jing hurriedly instructed the photographer to turn on the machine, follow the shooting, and clean up the people around to watch the excitement, Liu Dehua, Weng Meiling and others stood so close that they would be goofy if they were not careful.

This time, Ye Tian and Anita Mui performed more carefully and completely integrated into the role, when Wang Jing shouted cut, the two did not react for a while, looked at each other in a daze, and gradually cleared up in their minds, and couldn't help but smile at each other.
Ye Tian came to Wang Jing's side and asked, "How was the shooting?" β
Wang Jing smiled: "It went smoother than I imagined." β
Anita Mui quietly breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't feel anything during the performance, and she felt so stressed afterwards.
After a five-minute break, the crew started running again, continuing to shoot Ye Tian and Anita Mui's rival scenes, without mobile phones, some plots could only be replaced by pagers, and most of the scenes that could not be replaced by pagers were deleted by Ye Tian and new bridges were added.

Wang Jing propped up his fat body and said with a smile: "I'll shoot here at noon, and continue to work after eating!" β
"Director, what are you going to eat at noon today?"
"Seafood crab, abalone shark fin, steak Western food, coffee and cola......"
"Isn't it, so generous?"
"None of that!"
"Cut!"
"Do you want duck leg rice and chicken leg rice!"
"It's pretty much the same as usual!"
"If you don't eat this, there are flatbreads, green onions, ......"
"Let's still have chicken thigh rice!"
Wang Jing sent away a group of old fritters from the crew, photographers, field staff, lighting engineers, prop masters, etc., some of these people were introduced by his father, and some of them were recruited by him at his expense.
"Tianzai, come with me."
"Hmm"
Ye Tian followed Wang Jing to the balcony, in fact, this villa is very good, elegant in appearance, because it is located on the mountainside, within a radius of three miles, only this one house, flowers and trees, green trees, neatly trimmed, and has great appreciation potential.
"What's the matter?"
Wang Jing said seriously: "Have you noticed that the script is very wrong?" β
"What do you mean?"
"If you shoot according to the script, you can finish it in a week, but what about the film? It's simply not enough to make a 90-minute movie! β
"You mean the story is too short?"
"That's what I mean!"
Well, this problem is quite serious!
Ye Tian realized that he had encountered a big problem, not only "Getting Father-in-law" had such a problem, all the scripts he wrote had such flaws, he watched the whole movie, this is an advantage and a disadvantage, just like now, if you really shoot according to the script, after the finalization, the editor can't cut out a single picture, otherwise it won't be enough weight, so what else do the editor do, if a movie is not edited in post, how can it be released.
Wang Jing said tentatively: "Tianzai, let's add some stories to the script." β
Ye Tiandao: "What plot do you want to add?" β
Wang Jing's brain opened up instantly: "Pick up the girl, first add a love rival to the male protagonist, cause a misunderstanding, when the misunderstanding is about to be resolved, and then create some trouble for the heroine, a competitor suddenly emerges, which can be set as the protagonist's first love, and finally the four work together to deal with the villain, these audiences like to watch it the most!" β
"No way!" Ye Tian vetoed it, these are all with what, a good warm comedy, what to add to the plot, and it is not to shoot "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love", "Get My Father-in-law" is a comedy, the most important thing is to make the audience laugh, increase irrelevant plots, and affect the essence of the story.
Wang Jing hesitated: "Then what do you say to do?" β
Ye Tian groaned secretly, filtered the story, and finally analyzed: "Add some jokes that Hong Kong people like, many plots of the script are written by me based on life experience, which may not be suitable for the taste of Hong Kong people. β
"No wonder I think those jokes are a bit far-fetched." Wang Jing immediately took out a pen and paper, opened the script and marked it in an inappropriate place, as a top student in the Department of Literature of the University of Hong Kong, making up stories is his strength.
Ye Tian touched his chin and said to himself: "You can increase the drama of Zhao Yuzhi and Chen Yulian." β
Wang Jing praised: "This is a good idea, Miss Zhao has become more and more famous in recent years, there are fans of her everywhere in Southeast Asia, and Miss Chen, breakup scandals are flying all over the sky, quack, "Get the Father-in-law" is a big hit in other cities, I won't be surprised at all." β
Ye Tian was slightly ashamed, Zhao Yuzhi and Chen Yulian both encountered the most difficult difficulties in their lives, Zhao Yuzhi's divorce turmoil is getting more and more intense, and now it has entered the last moment, if the man does not agree, he is bound to go through the court, now Hong Kong is not as enlightened as the later generations, it is natural for a man to file for divorce, but the woman can't, Zhao Yuzhi bears most of the accusations of public opinion, Chen Yulian is not easy, compared to the high-profile Zhou Runfa, she has a calm personality and rarely lets reporters interview, she can't find her scandal before, and now reporters from all sides are like eating excited. The agent is general, chasing her, the scandal is better than one day, and now in the whole of Hong Kong, these two women are the hottest.
Wang Jing said thoughtfully: "I believe it a little now, "Get My Father-in-law" has the potential to be a big hit!" β
"Okay, let's make up your story, the more you sell, the higher your dividends!" Ye Tian patted Wang Jing on the shoulder, signaling not to be passive and slacking off, he didn't want Wang Jing to cheat and play tricks because of jealousy and envy.
"By the way, what are you going to shoot tomorrow?"
"In a hurry, continue to shoot the villa scene, and stay and shoot the outdoor scene together."
"That's ...... You're okay, right? β
"You still don't believe in my skills, don't say stagger shooting, even if you shoot upside down, it's no problem for me, do you want to try it!"
"Forget it! You can try it later if you have the chance. β
Ye Tian stopped the topic, he didn't want to work hard for several months and raise the funds for Wang Jing as a test subject.
PS: Thank you Xuanyuan Wu, the reward of loneliness is like a firework, alas!! Sanjiang pounced, feeling so uncomfortable, the only consolation is that up to now, the results of this book are better than the dream of Hong Kong.
