Chapter 31: Good things are grinding
Chapter 31: Good things are grinding
The stealing god threw a bunch of belongings into the trash: "Brother is not stealing money, brother is stealing loneliness." Then he turned to the thief: "Sister, don't smoke, it's not good for your health." The thief sighed softly: "Sister is not smoking, sister is lonely." Then, the two looked at each other and sighed in unison: "There is a kind of loneliness called invincible, who can understand our loneliness?" ”
"Perfect!" Liang Xiaolong praised, he thought that Wu Jing's first time acting would be slower, but he didn't expect to finish filming the first exterior scene at four o'clock. However, because of the lighting problem, it must be too late to shoot the second exterior scene, but this does not mean that the crew can rest, and the crew will shoot an interior scene at night, which is the reaction after stealing the probe and the reaction after the probe goes home.
Stealing the spirit and going home happily: "Sister, I found it, I finally found the feeling of blood swelling." The thief was stunned, and the stealing god said: "Today, that feeling of excitement is like the Yellow River bursting its banks, out of control, and like the water of the Yangtze River, endless, exciting, unprecedented excitement!" The thief gave the stealing god a slap: "What do you say?" "I stole a policeman today, but the policeman was so cute that he found out and fought with me." I'm excited, I finally know that I'm not invincible, and I have a goal to work hard again. The thief's eyes lit up: "That's right, not only to steal money, but also to steal people, and we must not let the policeman escape from our palms." At this time, Sweetheart poked her head out of the room: "One person's loneliness, two people's fault, but since they have been mentally ill, their spirits are much better." ”
Then, Sweetheart began to bury her head in her homework again, muttering as she did: "The farthest distance in the world is not life and death, but the exam is coming soon, others are reviewing, but they are previewing." What's even more tragic is that everyone has passed the preview, but they have not reviewed it. The eldest sister is really, I obviously want to be a thief, but she has to go to school and pretend to be a lady. How good it is to be a thief, as soon as you stretch out your hand, other people's money will go into your own pocket. ”
"Sister Big Mouth, Wu Jing, this scene should be exaggerated, and the stage flavor will be stronger." Liang Xiaolong is not rigid in one style, if this kind of dialogue is read out ordinarily, it will definitely not make people laugh, but like Xing Ye, exaggerated and not distorted: "Jessica, although you are a lady in this scene, you have to show the hidden rebellious psychology." ”
"It's a bit of a director." Rachel sat on the side and looked at her little man stupidly, and she was worried that Liang Xiaolong would not be able to convey his intentions to the actors, but let the actors play on their own. Of course, it is also necessary to give the actors room to play themselves, but no matter how the actors play, they must be constrained within the director's intentions, otherwise the whole play will be messed up.
"That feeling of excitement is like the Yellow River bursting its banks, out of control, and ...... Again...... Ha ha. This passage is going to be said in a hurry, and the expression is very exaggerated, Wu Jing is already holding back a smile, but God doesn't pity it, Julia blinked her eyes, and Wu Jing couldn't help it anymore. Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but shake his head, filming this kind of dialogue scene, even if it is a very bland dialogue, he will laugh because of the other party's expression, not to mention this kind of drama with exaggerated expressions and funny dialogues: "Drama, turn on the air conditioner to the maximum, the temperature is colder, they should be able to calm down." ”
This is also a common method, with the right low temperature, humans will be correspondingly calmer, and the actor can better contain the excitement in his heart. Of course, this is just an auxiliary means, the key is for the actors to self-regulate, otherwise it will be useless to send them to the North and South Poles. But even so, Wu Jing and Julia laughed again and again, and Liang Xiaolong had to divide the scene into several scenes at Julia's suggestion, and then edit them together in later stage.
Julia and Wu Jing's dialogue is finished, followed by Jessica's monologue. During the filming, Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but think of the information about Jessica in his previous life, as well as the evaluation of her on the Internet. The TV series "Doomsday**" filmed in 2000 made her shine brighter than Ruth in "Titanic" and became the sweetheart baby of all Americans, but sometimes it is a mistake for people to be too beautiful, Jessica Beauty actually covered up her acting skills and became the biggest vase superstar in Hollywood. Liang Xiaolong is also very fascinated by Jessica's beauty, but he also has to admit that the 15-year-old Jessica's acting skills are still a little immature: "Jessica, the performance is good, but you have to be more open, and you have to show the wild surname that hides the sweetheart in your bones." ”
"Don't turn it on yet, I'll try again myself." Jessica tried to do it again, but had to admit that she was too well-behaved and not rebellious enough to grow up in a military family. And in order to stimulate her rebellious factor, Liang Xiaolong asked the drama manager to bring two cups: "Jessica, you are a bad girl, a bad girl, drop these two cups, you have to fall more chic." Jessica took the cup and asked weakly, "Will this work?" Liang Xiaolong encouraged: "Fall hard, and you can find that feeling when you fall." ”
Jessica took a deep breath and suddenly raised her hand, and with a bang, shards of glass scattered in all directions. Liang Xiaolong smiled and asked, "How do you feel?" Jessica said, "That seems good." Liang Xiaolong said again: "Then continue to fall, harder." With another bang, Liang Xiaolong asked, "How do you feel?" Jessica said, "Very good, very relieved." Liang Xiaolong asked again, "Do you want me to bring a few more cups?" ”
"Thank you, Xiaolong, I think I've found that feeling." Jessica smiled confidently, and when she turned on the machine again, she stretched her waist and sighed with a little yearning: "One person's loneliness, two people's fault, but since they have mental illness, their spirits are much better." Then when he buried himself in his homework and complained in a low voice, there was a flying look between his eyebrows: "The farthest distance in the world is not life and death, but the exam is coming soon, others are reviewing, but you are preparing." What's even more tragic is that everyone has passed the preview, but they have not reviewed it. The eldest sister is really, I obviously want to be a thief, but she has to go to school and pretend to be a lady. How good it is to be a thief, as soon as you stretch out your hand, other people's money will go into your own pocket. ”
"Jessica, you're acting so perfectly, you'll be able to play with Big Mouth." Liang Xiaolong praised, and Jessica smiled sweetly: "I didn't expect to be able to do it in one go, but this feeling is really good." And after filming this scene, today's work is over, Liang Xiaolong was about to order everyone to disperse, Mark suddenly called: "Xiaolong, "Tomb Robbery" will start a new round of propaganda offensive the day after tomorrow, you have to be prepared." ”
"What? So fast? Liang Xiaolong was stunned, and a bad premonition rose in his heart, such as the tomb robbery maze, the publicity offensive of a big-investment film like the tomb robbery maze must be wave after wave, which means that Rachel and Brandon will often leave the crew to go to other places to promote. If Liang Xiaolong still follows the original shooting plan, he will inevitably waste a lot of time. But Liang Xiaolong must race against time now, because after the release of Tomb Robbery, the media will definitely fire Rachel and Brandon, and they are the starring actors of "Cops and Thieves", and letting the film be released when their popularity is at its peak will definitely have the best publicity effect.
So now Liang Xiaolong has only one way, reschedule the filming time, wait for Rachel and Brandon to shoot their scenes when they are there, and shoot other people's scenes when they are no longer there. And doing so meant that many venues had to be rented repeatedly, the backdrops had to be set up repeatedly, and the cast had to be hired repeatedly, which undoubtedly raised the budget: "Mark, send me a list of their schedules, otherwise I won't be able to arrange it." Mark said: "Xiaolong, you don't have to worry too much, domestic propaganda can't waste much time, and I will try to compress the time abroad, and strive to let them go today and come back the next day." ”
"Looks like I'm going to have to stay up late at night." Liang Xiaolong sighed lightly and called Rachel: "Did Mark inform you?" Rachel worried: "It won't bother the crew, will it?" Liang Xiaolong comforted: "There must be trouble, but it's not that you can't deal with it, on the contrary, you have to film and do publicity everywhere, so you may be tired." Rachel smiled, "It's okay, you can just stew chicken soup for me every day from now on." Liang Xiaolong's face was bitter: "Beauty, I'm not a nanny." Kayla didn't know where it came from: "The nanny has Uncle Xiaolong's skills, and I also want to drink chicken soup." ”
Liang Xiaolong rolled his eyes and decided to ignore the two beauties, otherwise he would definitely have to be called by them as slaves: "Do British women have the talent to exploit people?" Evil capitalism! As soon as he got home, Liang Xiaolong began to look through the filming schedule, as well as Rachel and Brandon's schedule, and then staggered their scenes, and the biggest problem was not time: "Originally, it took about 300 to invite Jackie Chan, but it turned out that Wu Jing was invited, saving 2.5 million, and Rachel and Sister Big Mouth replaced the two actors for free, saving nearly one million, which will have to be all taken in again." ”
Knowing that Liang Xiaolong was going to stay up late, Rachel specially made a pot of tea: "Are you still worried about filming?" In fact, you don't have to worry too much, even if the progress is slow, you will definitely be able to complete the shooting in two months, and no matter how slow the post-production is, one month is enough. In other words, it will be completed by the end of November, and the film will be released in December. Liang Xiaolong wrapped his arms around her and let her sit on his lap, and his hands roamed over her dishonestly: "It's not that I'm worried, it's just that it's troublesome to rearrange the process, if it's not appropriate, it may cost millions more budget, you don't want your future husband to be a poor egg, right?" ”
"Hooligans!" Rachel was tossed by him, "Kayla just lay down, not asleep, don't mess around in the living room." Liang Xiaolong smiled: "It's okay if you want me to stop, but you have to answer me a question, my dear wife, why are your pectoralis major muscles developed so well?" Artificial or natural? Rachel gave him a blank look: "If I had known you were such a scoundrel, I should have stayed away from you at that time." Liang Xiaolong smiled: "Men are not bad and women are not loved, this is summed up by thousands of men in China, so I have to be worse to be able to fascinate you to death." Hurry up and answer my question, or I'll fix you on the spot." ”
"We have good genes, pure natural, are you satisfied?" Glancing at him hatefully, Rachel quickly diverted the topic, otherwise she would be irritated by the enemy, and she would have to toss her all night: "At the press conference the day after tomorrow, there will definitely be reporters who ask me and Brandon about "The Police and the Thief", how should I answer it then?" Silent or aggressive? ”
ps: If you have something to go out at noon, you will update it in advance, and there will be a change in the evening!
