Chapter 180 Entering the Drama and Becoming Enchanted

Since the filming of "Rouge Buckle" started, the smile on Lu Yan's face seems to have become less and less. Even outside the set, Lu Yan frowned and pondered more often.

Since Wang Zuxian is also busy shooting at both ends, there are not many opportunities for the two to meet, and now there are even fewer. And Lu Yan is... The front line, home, company and filming location.

Moreover, many times he has the script of "Rouge Buckle" in his hand. In his spare time, he occasionally changes the adapted script for other shots.

In fact, in the adaptation of the script of "Rouge Buckle", Lu Yan and Li Bihua often had conflicts. Although the other party is the original author of "Rouge Buckle", after all, it is a remake of the movie. In this regard, Lu Yan is undoubtedly the representative of authority. What's more, the previous "True Colors of Heroes" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" were both great successes, so Li Bihua still made a lot of concessions.

She herself knows that directors like to improvise more often than not. No matter how perfect your screenwriting is, maybe that scene will be deleted for you during filming.

However, Lu Yan obviously won't do this, he doesn't want to cause the dissatisfaction of this talented woman Li after the release of "Rouge Buckle" and write a special feature to criticize herself

According to Lu Yan's opinion, the two characters such as Hua and Twelve Shao are already distinct in the original work. The life encounters are sighing, but they are not cute characters: twelve young people, handsome, elegant, personable, can also be said to have done their best in emotional investment, but the family has always had the limitations of the family, and finally drifted away from Ruhua under the pressure of many parties;

Ruhua is the usual female image in Li Bihua's novels: infatuated and selfish, intelligent and vicious, in order to get the beloved, you can do whatever it takes, Ju Xian, Green Snake, Kawashima Yoshiko, Duan Huanting...... Nothing less. But scheming women such as Duan Huanting are just informants to their opponents, and they do not hesitate to harm their lover to be blind, but they also want to stay by their side for a long time; If you are like a flower, you will simply take the life of your lover, since I can't get you, so that everyone can't get you, and you can't get anything. In the book, another protagonist, Yuan Yongding, commented: "...... This kind of woman is terrible. It's okay if she doesn't love you, but unfortunately she falls in love with you, and you don't want to escape. Transformed into a fly, she also transforms into a flytrap to serve you. Even if she is a new person, her ghost refuses to let go. ”

At the end of the story, the song "Carmen" is deliberately mentioned: "...... If you fall in love with me, you will find bad luck for yourself, and if I fall in love with you, you will die at my hands."

But because of this, Lu Yan's adaptation highlights his concept. And this point is also where Li Bihua is controversial. In her opinion, the adapted script obviously has deep sympathy and preference for the woman Ruhua, and every imaginable scene and dialogue has portrayed her as a pitiful and lovable weakling. The deep side of the scheming described in the original work has not been fully laid out, but the section on poisoning and murdering the twelve young people has been copied from the original book, and it is suddenly ruthless and suddenly brushed aside. not only makes the sharp human conflict in the original work completely lost, but also makes Ruhua's character ambiguous and inexplicable.

But although he disagreed, Li Bihua, who occasionally went to visit the class, had to deny that Lu Yan's arrangement was indeed quite good. Even, she has some illusions that Lu Yan is not like a director who has filmed a tough guy brotherhood movie like "The True Color of Heroes".

Because in the filming of "Rouge Buckle", she obviously felt that Lu Yan seemed to be a little more feminine than many female directors.

This young director deserves to be named a 'ghost director'

And Lu Yan, who was already a little flawless because of the filming of "Rouge Buckle", had to start his run. It is only now that he can understand how painful it is to be an actor.

At the beginning, he arranged to play the role of Long Wuyi in "God of Gamblers" on a whim, and now he can be said to have completely put himself in. Fortunately, the filming of "Rouge Buckle" was not in a hurry, so he was able to cope with it.

"Yan Zai, Yan Zai ......"

Lu Yan, who came to the set of "God of Gamblers" not long ago, was confused again: "Ah, is it my play?" ”

Looking at Lu Yan's trance-like appearance, Bao Hanlin couldn't help frowning.

Of course, Lu Yan caught the other party's expression, and said awkwardly: "Uncle Bao, I'm distracted." ”

As the oldest and oldest actor Bao Hanlin in "God of Gamblers", everyone's impression of him may be Chen Jincheng who plays opposite Chow Yun-fat

Although she knew that the director was in full swing now, Bao Hanlin couldn't help but speak: "Yan Zai, the most taboo thing for actors is distraction. Otherwise, some actors have to go back and forth to several sets a day to play different roles...... You're like this, the most important thing."

"Yes" Although he is the producer of "God of Gamblers", in the real sense, Lu Yan positions himself as an actor in this movie. And Bao Hanlin's words are not wrong, the role of Long Wu is not light, although more often it is playing a cool feeling, but since he has played it, he must play him well.

And Lu Yan himself can't deny that Lu Yan hasn't put much effort into how to play the role of Long Wu and how to figure out his psychology

"Uncle Bao, bury your position"

Before Bao Hanlin could say a few more words to Lu Yan, Wang Jing over there had already shouted.

Before burying the position, Bao Hanlin smiled and said, "Think about it yourself."

Seeing Bao Hanlin go to bury his position, Cheng Xiaodong, who was not far away, came over and said: "Yan Zai, I wonder if I was 'criticized' by Uncle Bao, whether it is the company or the set, I have a tight face when I see you recently." Is there something wrong with the filming of "Rouge Buckle"? ”

"No, I just feel that it's so depressing to shoot......"

Lu Yan's demeanor made Cheng Xiaodong feel a little distressed: "You just work too hard, I don't think you have had a chance to relax recently." Take a look at "God of Gamblers", we all have a lot of fun with Lawang Fat Man and Fa Ge, they all play often. It's good that you're going to make a literary film...... Now no one who sees you will dare to say a few more words to you. ”

"Am I that scary?" Lu Yan, who heard this, was dumbfounded.

"What do you think?" Cheng Xiaodong couldn't help but roll his eyes, and wondered: "I see if you are filming "Rouge Buckle", we have all said that such a story is too yin. ”

"What are you talking about" Lu Yan shook his head again and again, but he didn't deny it completely: "I seem to be a little demonic, and my mind has been full of "Rouge Buckle" recently. It's not filming, it's not actors' performances...... It's that story, like I'm too into the play? ”

In fact, the director is too involved in the play, and Lu Yan is not the first case. It's just that in most cases, it's the actors who can't extricate themselves. Cheng Xiaodong is inevitably a little depressed, it stands to reason that Lu Yan is a very cheerful person. In his opinion, many things are so light and light. just bumped into "Rouge Buckle" this time, and fell into it.

After thinking about it, Cheng Xiaodong suggested: "Anyway, "Rouge Buckle" is not in a hurry, just shoot it slowly." I see that you can relax after shooting every day. Don't get into this movie all day...... I heard Joey say that the scene on Brother Sanmao's side is about to be completed. When the time comes, let her accompany you more."

Hearing this, Lu Yan was surprised: ""Thunderbolt Trumpet" is about to be completed? ”

"What do you think?"

"Hmm" Lu Yan During this time, he did get together less with Wang Zuxian and leave more. In retrospect, it seems that I cared too little about my girlfriend. It's like the filming of "Rouge Buckle", the reason why I put too much pressure on myself.

Looking back, Lu Yan really understood a lot of things.

No wonder on the set of "Rouge Buckle", whether it was Lu Yan, Leslie Cheung or other staff, they did not have the free time to talk and laugh as before. Although the shooting is not tiring, the atmosphere is unusually depressing.

There is no doubt that most of the reasons for these are due to Lu Yan.

The director, as the soul of a crew. The attitude shown by Lu Yan naturally affected the minds of other staff members.

Obviously, "Rouge Buckle" was shot perfectly in every shot. But everyone's work doesn't seem to be particularly enjoyable

Cheng Xiaodong, who was beside him, watched Lu Yan's expression change closely. When Lu Yan's expression changed from solemn to relaxed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone sees Lu Yan's situation, but many words are obviously not suitable for anyone to say. And after you say it, the other party can untie the knot is also a big reason. In everyone's opinion, Lu Yan is undoubtedly a person with very strong self-regulation ability. But on the issue of "Rouge Buckle", he really went crazy.

I have to say that the first time I shot a literary film really made Lu Yan a magic barrier

This will Lu Yan gradually recover, whether it is for the crew of "Rouge Buckle" or "God of Gamblers", it is a very fortunate thing. Especially "God of Gamblers", which is almost near the end of filming. It's just that there are still a lot of scenes in Long Wu, but Lu Yan is like this. Wang Jing controlled and postponed his role all the time, just because he didn't want to put too much pressure on the other party.

"Figured it out?"

"Brother Xiaodong, you are here to dial me today" Lu Yan smiled sassily, regained his previous breath and said: "No wonder you came here so early today, there will be no fighting scenes." ”

"Do you think that the fat man is going to be in a hurry, and "God of Gamblers" has accumulated the most scenes since it was filmed. It's just that you picked the role of Long Wu, then it's also the second male partner......" Cheng Xiaodong smiled bitterly, if he had known that Lu Yan was going to make a literary film, he would never have approved of him to make a cameo performance. This cameo is no different from one of the leading actors

"Fifth brother, are you ready?"

Suddenly, Chow Yun-fat, who had just finished a scene, yelled at Lu Yan.

In fact, everyone saw Lu Yan's state during this time, but Chow Yun-fat was the only one who liked to communicate with Lu Yan in this way. Because in his opinion, Lu Yan's soul should be summoned back in this way.

Hearing this, Lu Yan nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, but let me read the script again, Director Wang, no problem, right?" ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately laughed.

While saying 'OK', he even asked for time to read the script. People with such privileges are afraid that Lu Yan will be gone.

Wang Jing was not angry at all, because from now on, Lu Yan finally came back to his senses. "Look, but try to get into the state as quickly as possible, there are more fight scenes today"

But most of the scenes of the role of 'Dragon Five' are fight scenes. And it's not just the action, it's mainly a bit of gunplay

For this reason, Lu Yan also put a lot of effort into learning firearms. Although I was confused some time ago, the coach taught him by hand

The current person in charge of firearms chattered at Lu Yan again. From the simplest way to hold and the posture of shooting, I told you again.

"Yan Zai, today you have to hang coercion and prepare psychologically......"

In fact, Cheng Xiaodong had already said this to Lu Yan the day before, but Lu Yan obviously didn't care. Hearing this again, Lu Yan suddenly said helplessly: "It's not high, right?" ”

"If it's not high, don't worry, I'm here for the security measures" Cheng Xiaodong patted his chest and smiled.

In fact, not to mention Lu Yan for fear of coercion, even many experienced martial artists would be a little worried. The current steel wire is not as thick as it will be in the future, and it will even "crunch" and "crunch" when it is hoisted, which is very infiltrating

In addition, when filming "A Chinese Ghost Story" before, there was an accident like Wang Zuxian, Lu Yan inevitably had palpitations, but this is all good, if he starred in Jackie Chan's movie, then he would know what 'action' is. If you don't do it well, it's jumping off a building or something like that, Jackie Chan and they make movies, and almost every fight scene will have a professional dragon and tiger martial artist injured

And this time, Director Lu personally went into battle.

If the scholar at the beginning of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is only a cameo, then Long Wu of "God of Gamblers" is definitely Lu Yan's first official role in the film.

Long Wu is not so easy to act. It's not that simple
