I heard Luo Hongzhen say that it took five months just to find the filming location, because the film needed a lot of alleys, and at the same time it was necessary to be able to enter the camera car, and finally found this hillside section of Wangyuan Cave.

The surrounding houses and roads are irregular, and the various undulating lanes are indeed a good place to pursue.

Generally, a press conference will be held when movies and TV series start filming, but this time is different, not so much about the start of filming as a test shooting before the start of filming, in order to test whether Zheng Duobin has the potential to play the heroine, this is the first thing that I made an appointment with Zheng Xiuheng, but if it doesn't work, I will change people, and at the same time, I can save Zheng Xiuheng's salary.

When Zheng Duobin can't do it, then the crew can delay it for a few more days and invite the backup heroine, anyway, as long as the movie heroine of this cost is not those first-line actresses, she will basically not refuse, and Luo Hongzhen and others have no idea of finding any popular superstars.

However, before the test shooting began, the crew had already encountered a problem, and this problem did not come from Zheng Duobin.

At this moment, the villa in the middle of Wangyuan Cave, that is, the villa where Chi Yingmin lives in this movie and buries the body, the decoration style in the house is very old, and it is also a little messy at the moment, and the makeup artist and the two protagonists today are sitting in front of the makeup mirror next to the makeup artist to accept the makeup artist's makeup.

Zheng Duobin was okay, wearing silver-white silk pajamas and sitting on the side, his hair was scattered, his face was a little wooden and worried, but it was very close to Luo Hongzhen's mind that the heroine should look.

Although he hasn't started acting yet, he is satisfied with his image alone.

What people didn't expect was that Zheng Xiuheng had a problem here, of course, even Zheng Xiuheng himself didn't expect this kind of problem.

At this moment, his hair had reverted back to a very ordinary side, and his glasses had been removed, making him look much smaller.

But this is not the problem, although it looks a lot immature, Zheng Xiuheng does not smile. It's not too small, and his facial features are already very tough, so he only needs a little effort on makeup, which is not too difficult for a film makeup artist.

However, what makes people speechless and amazed is that Zheng Xiuheng's skin is so good that it is also flawless when you use an instrument to detect his pores.

In the current situation, even if it is powdered, the covered Cheng dù can only be regarded as average, so the shooting effect will naturally be worse.

Zheng Xiuheng himself was also speechless. He really didn't think that his skin was too good to become a problem beyond acting skills.

"Huh!"

"You can still laugh? What exactly did you use, and how did your skin look so good? Luo Hongzhen sat next to him and asked with a sad face, he also felt speechless at the moment, powdering can cover up Zheng Xiuheng's complexion and make the skin rougher, but it is necessary to fake pores and skin on the face...... Do you still need to hire a special effects makeup artist?

Zheng Xiuheng really thinks it's funny, he looks like he should be twenty-seven or eighteen years old now, and he looks very mature and stable. But if you look closer, the skin tone is basically the same, and you can't see anything in the pores.

Looking at the female makeup artist in her thirties next to her, Zheng Xiuheng asked with a smile, "Is there no other way to cover it up?" Don't use Director Luo's standards yet. Is it okay to just make it a 30-year-old with slightly darker skin? ”

Although the female makeup artist was helpless, she was very envious of Zheng Xiuheng's skin, and when she heard him say this, she thought about it and nodded: "That's no problem." However, I do have an idea now, maybe applying a double or triple layer of light to the face to tone the color, which may highlight some of the effects of dry skin. Why don't we try it? ”

"Let's try, anyway, there aren't many good places in the movie, and when you get a wound after being beaten, these should be easy to cover up!" Luo Hongzhen thought about it and could only arrange it like this, since he was scared by Zheng Xiuheng last time, coupled with the script and story he created, he really hasn't slept well for a long time, if he goes home in the middle of the night and walks alone at night, he is also suspicious, and he always reacts aggressively when there is a stir, he himself didn't expect Zheng Xiuheng's appearance that day, coupled with his own crankiness, would have such a powerful effect.

But it is precisely because of this that he is even more determined to use Zheng Xiuheng to play this murderous maniac, and even the two have had two script discussions on the antenna, which is about how to play Ji Yingmin, a murderer.

In fact, as the best template for crime films, "Memories of Murder" is undoubtedly the first in the history of Korean cinema, while "Old Boy" puts aside the same thriller and suspense elements, and is more like a crime movie than a crime.

The script of "The Chaser", in Zheng Xiuheng's undisguised words, is full of loopholes, but because the main purpose of the film is to satirize the helplessness of the police, civil servants and society, this kind of thing is easy to scratch the itch in the hearts of Koreans, and the story itself is not bad, so the loopholes don't matter.

And these loopholes really can't be filled, just like the imbecile of the police and government personnel in the movie, if they are all made high-energy, it won't be called irony, and this story is probably not called "Chaser", but "The Great Korean Police and the Former Police Officer's Current Pimp. The Murder Story.

In the discussion with Zheng Xiuheng, Luo Hongzhen got two enlightenments, one is to be rigorous in some details, such as the mayor was splashed with feces by others, and just when the news of the murderous maniac was arrested, the prosecutor found the police chief and said to release him, because Chi Yingmin was beaten during the arrest, and he was afraid that the people would say that it was to divert the attention of the mayor from being splashed with feces......

This Nima can no longer be considered a BUG, but directly dragged the entire Korean civil servants to the IQ of kindergarten children, just because of this strange reason, he released the murderous maniac who killed 12 people, Luo Hongzhen also felt blushing after careful consideration, although the audience may not feel that there is any problem when filmed, but it will indeed affect the overall evaluation of the movie, since it is his first work, Luo Hongzhen also wants to be perfect.

As I said earlier, this drama is destined to be too high-energy, so after the revision, it became the first thing to shoot the reporters to distort the report, saying that it was an act to divert the attention of the people, and then it was caused by the mayor asking the prosecutor to come forward.

In this way, while satirizing public servants, it can also satirize those unscrupulous media who control public opinion and are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, killing two birds with one stone.

And the second point is that in the character creation of Ji Yingmin, Luo Hongzhen borrowed from Yoo Yong-cheol, but he wanted to pay attention to rationality in the movie, so that he portrayed this character inexplicably.

A murderer who abused and killed a massage girl because of sexual impotence, after being caught by the police, directly admitted that he had killed someone, and in the middle of the criminal psychologist disintegrated the love xù and collapsed, after being released, he killed the heroine by mistake, and went back to the house to lie down for a long time before he was ready to escape, that feeling is that in the whole film, Ji Yingmin is a strange middle school student who plays games in a bunch of elementary school students, and only the protagonist is a normal person.

Compared with Yoo Yong-cheol's madness in reality, and even the situation where he continued to kill people without threatening the police without sentencing him to death, it can be seen from here that Yoo Yong-cheol's spirit has collapsed and has completely detached from society.

But the most terrifying thing about him is that the modus operandi is perfect and his personality is completely detached from the world, and the reason why he was caught can only be said to be the reason why he has been mentally detached, if there is still a little reason, I am afraid that more people will die at his hands, as for whether he wants to die in the end, self-destruction is unknown.

And Zheng Xiuheng's advice is very simple, it is better to portray Ji Yingmin as a villain who is inexplicable and incarnates a murderer because of sexual incompetence, rather than a creepy 'crazy' murderer.

In fact, comparing the two by two, Ji Yingmin's motive for killing is so pale that people can't complain, even Luo Hongzhen actually realized it, so he buried a lot of foreshadowing, such as killing the couple other than the massage girl and when the love affair at the police station collapsed, they all shouted 'Why do you bother me!' This sentence.

In fact, Zheng Xiuheng asked Luo Hongzhen and asked him, 'What kind of foreshadowing is this', but Luo Hongzhen said that there is no reason, it is suspense, this kind of thing can become something that fans discuss after the end, but in fact there is no special reason.

And at the beginning, when I asked the heroine Mi-jin if she had any reason why she had to survive, she paused again when she heard the other party say that she had a seven-year-old daughter, and then decided to kill her.

'Why do you ask this?' Zheng Xiuheng asked Luo Hongzhen, and the answer was, 'No why, I just thought about it at that time!' ’

Well, Zheng Xiuheng was powerless to complain, and in the end, his advice was that since he couldn't change the script, let Ji Yingmin adapt it in some details.

For example, there are four times to add whistling in the film, the first time is when she is tied up in the bathroom after meeting the ownerless actress Mi-jin, and whistles before entering the door.

The second time was when the police station was dismantled and pretended to be angry, and at the end, when the police were happy to induce Ji Youngmin's motive for killing, they suddenly looked at them with a smile, and then whistled pleasantly.

The third time was to whistle outside the door before killing the main female horn in the commissary, of course, you have to listen to the soundtrack to create a terrifying atmosphere, which happens to be the opposite of the first whistle.

The fourth time is the last time in the villa when you stand in front of the mirror and change your clothes.

This is added in order to create a terrifying and weird atmosphere, and the second is to laugh, not laughing all the time, but in a few specific plots, to suddenly show that kind of infiltrating smile, so that the audience can suddenly produce a creepy sense of fear in the tense plot, showing the strangeness and weirdness of Ji Yingmin.

The third is to make this character quieter, and at the same time more like a literary man, so as to form a contrast between the lamb in front of people and the jackal after people to give people a greater sense of impact, other plot things, there is nothing to modify, and the plot is not much to change, after all, the tone of the movie will not be adapted now.

Of course, to do all this, you need one thing, and that is ...... Acting. (To be continued......)
