Chapter 267: Take control of the crew

The filming site of "Source Code".

Chen Xi basically has his own gradually formed routine for the members of the crew, in short, he is relatively good at managing now, and everyone in the crew can do their best as Chen Xi.

One of the biggest differences between the filming of "Source Code" and other previous films is that Chen Xi is not only a director and producer, but he is also the leading actor, and at this point, this time it is obviously an attempt, but at the same time there are many challenges.

This is also the most tired and uncomfortable time for Chen Xi since filming movies, because up to now, Chen Xi can only sleep for no more than four hours every day......

Sometimes he is so sleepy that he wants to lie in bed and never get up anyway, but the reality forces him to do something, after all, if he doesn't do it, it's really not good, because if he doesn't do it, it will be difficult for others to complete it......

And he usually has a lot of things in the crew, not only does he need to control the on-site shooting as he did before, but at the same time, he also has to control everyone's performance, and he also has to take care of his own performance, memorize lines, and do all kinds of things, not only that, but he also needs to communicate with various departments and coordinate many things during the shooting......

After such high-intensity work, Chen Xi has always been quite uncomfortable, I feel that I have never been so tired in my life, and sometimes I even don't want to shoot directly, what do you love, you have the ability to hack me to death! But this kind of gambling thing, of course, Chen Xi also knows that he just needs to think about it, if he really wants to put it into action, it is obviously impossible......

So, Chen Xi can only stay up like this, constantly asking to make the movie better, and he is also trying his best to make every detail of "Source Code" as perfect as possible.

After all, Chen Xi also has high hopes on "Source Code"!

In fact. Influence in North America and even in the world as a whole needs to be accurately calculated, and it is best to be able to surpass it little by little, or at least maintain the level, otherwise this influence is likely to fade gradually...... It's like Zhang Guoshi, his "Hero" and "Ambush on All Sides" have a good box office and reputation, but the subsequent "The City Full of Golden Armor" has shown fatigue, and "Three Guns Shooting Surprise" has pushed many things of Zhang Guoshi into the abyss, and then his films want to make the United States and other markets accept it again is not as simple as before......

So. In this world, many times it is still good things that are king. Only when we can always produce some good things can we bring more people's likes and pursuits, and can we maintain the popularity.

The box office of the two movies "Raid" and "Embroidered Spring Knife" has exceeded 20 million US dollars, which has also allowed Chen Xi to initially gain some popularity, and the popularity brought by these two movies to Chen Xi is not only in the United States but also includes many other overseas regions. Of course, after the accumulation of two movies, Chen Xi's reputation is already quite good, and it is impossible to completely disperse it all at once. But a lot of things are gradually collapsing in subtle places, and it is also very likely that they will gradually collapse, making "Source Code" a waterloo for Chen Xi.

Now Chen Xi carries too many people's attention behind him, and too many people are looking forward to Chen Xi's new work. There are also many Chinese fans who can see Chen Xi's films re-replicate the glory of "The Raid" and "Source Code", so that his films can break into the hearts of foreign fans and get higher box office and praise around the world.

In this case. For Chen Xi, a qiē is naturally even more likely to succeed and not fail!

As a result, under multiple pressures, many things gradually fermented, and even began to become a little emotional...... Anyway, now Chen Xi carries too many things on his body and in his heart, and the director began to gradually lose his temper on the set.

"I've told you so many times! You can't do this show now! Everyone else is a performance, it's too exaggerated! How did you come to you and become a wooden face? ”

Chen Xi said to Liu Yifei, this sentence is very heavy, although Chen Xi's voice is not high, and not many people hear it, but such a direct scolding does have a sense of depression that has to be said for an actor of Liu Yifei's level, and there is also an embarrassment of being uncovered in front of a cloth.

Liu Yifei's upper row of teeth bit her lower lip gently, and it could be seen that she was quite uncomfortable now, and she was scolded like this, and the anger in her heart was naturally indispensable.

However, this anger has gradually turned into obedience, after all, Liu Yifei is still an actor, and actors have to listen to the director many times, especially when performing, which is a matter of course, not to mention that in this situation, Liu Yifei feels that Chen Xi is really angry, and the angry Chen Xi also has an unavoidable sense of depression, which makes people feel that they dare not go against his will......

Chen Xi, although he is usually more hippie and smiling, and he often seems to be in a state of joking with people, but when he is really angry, even if his voice is very low and does not seem to be angry, such a scene still makes people feel a kind of fear that comes out of their bones.

This may be the legendary aura or something, but anyway, this incident made Liu Yifei now feel a little angry and aggrieved in her heart, but she still nodded.

"Isn't it a little too much?"

Seeing Liu Yifei's appearance, such a thought suddenly popped up in Chen Xi's heart...... Although Liu Yifei didn't cry or take any other actions, she didn't seem to want to say anything, but just hid some grievances in her heart, which actually made people feel a little distressed!

"......" Chen Xi shook his head, putting this painful thought into his heart, and then his tone and face lines became cold again, and he said to everyone: "Do it again!" This time, everyone should be careful not to make mistakes! ”

In fact, there is another very important reason why Chen Xi can scold people like this now and be able to calm the scene, that is, the current Chen Xi's appearance in many places is far beyond everyone's expectations: this guy is not only the director's ability to make people speechless, but many other people in many places think that it should be like that, Chen Xi corrects it a little, and everyone will find the gap between the kind of idea they put forward and Chen Xi's idea, and what Chen Xi made is to be much better.

Moreover, now Chen Xi has also burst out in terms of performance, and many people can feel Chen Xi's ability in acting......

His performance was just amazing!

A lot of expressions, including the tone of voice in many places and other things, although there must be some gaps compared to the top actors, but even compared to some actors who are not in the first line of acting skills, Chen Xi's expression and expression in many places are already quite exciting.

Anyway, compared to other directors who are actors, Chen Xi is definitely the first, and thinking of the fact that Chen Xi has not starred in any movie before, at most he is only a cameo, then Chen Xi's ability now is simply revered like a god......

As a result, such a Chen Xi, who convinces everyone in terms of ability, it is obvious that he has similar influence in many places, and he also has the capital to convince everyone no matter where he is...... This is also the reason why everyone now listens to many things of Chen Xi, anyway, all in all, in short, everyone has completely obeyed Chen Xi's leadership, even if Chen Xi scolds people in the crew or something, everyone will accept it humbly.

"Lights! Lamplight! What's going on with you? Take a look at the monitor, take a good look! Is this brightness trying to brighten up a blind dog's eyes? In this shooting, Chen Xi broke out again, he was not a person who never swears, and not swearing is just a disguise in front of the media, fans, etc., but now, his disguise has basically been completely taken off by himself, and now Chen Xi is also full of swear words almost a lot of the time, which is difficult to avoid.

"Record it for Lao Tzu, don't you want to do it? Wear it again! Wear it again! ”

Now it's a recording rod goof, Chen Xi shouted out again, and many people felt frightened after his voice came out, especially the recording engineer on their side, but this is indeed more effective, at least they basically don't make any mistakes in the future.

…… After a day's filming was completed, Chen Xi didn't go to watch the daytime replay today, because now the night scene has been filmed until more than one o'clock in the evening, which is too late, Chen Xi paid out of his own pocket to invite the entire crew to dinner: this is almost tens of thousands of dollars.

This kind of inviting the crew to dinner is actually a small favor, after all, compared to such a big-investment movie, this amount of money is not too much......

But the significance of this is still very great, anyway, the director is stingy and cool, Chen Xi is like this, he often invites everyone to dinner, and occasionally gives some bonuses, and he is indeed able to get the recognition of the crew, Chen Xi is to coerce on the one hand and favor on the other hand to make everyone really obedient to him.
