The small night market near the guesthouse, slightly cold.

The street is not wide, and the traffic rushes by, clattering the broken manhole covers in the middle of the road, and on both sides are food stalls, poking at bored stall owners and sparse diners.

Wang Chao found a noodle stall to make a scene, originally wanted to give the boss some money, but people were happy, saying that he could make a movie, what money do you want, look down on it!

The camera was fixed in a plastic shed behind the booth, and there was a lot of work to do, with small carts, gas cans, large buckets of oil and noodles, spicy nuts and rough toilet paper on the square table, and bright light bulbs shaking the tabletop more and more greasy.

The boss was holding a baby, wrapped in a floral quilt, electrocuted for the first time, extremely distracted, trembling and excited.

Three seconds later, Chu Qing was wearing a military coat, entering the mirror from the right, and the black backlight made him unable to see his face at all. He designed the details of walking slightly, and rubbed the ground with the soles of his shoes step by step, which was very sloppy and looked very weak.

"What to eat?"

"A bowl of noodles." He sat down at the table and said.

"Come on, you hold the baby for me first." The owner stuffed the baby over.

"Your child?"

"No, no, I don't know whose family, let me put this." The boss muttered, returned to the table, and began to stretch the noodles.

That's not a dummy, it's a real child, Wang Chao spent money to rent it. was the first to give thirty yuan for a play, but the parents didn't do it, and then talked about fifty, so they reluctantly nodded.

It is said that since the birth of his brother-in-law, Chu Qing has been a bit of a father's love boiling daring, and it is estimated that he has hooked up the addiction, and he wants to be close to him when he sees a minor. Seeing that he was skillful in holding the child, swaying very naturally, made the parents who were guarding him slightly dumbfounded.

"Stop!"

Wang Chao shouted and said, "Qingzi, don't be so old-fashioned, the first time you hold a child, you have to be rusty." ”

"Ahh Sorry director, I didn't pay attention. He scratched his head, he had indeed forgotten about it.

"Do it all over again!"

“Action！”

This time, Chu Qing didn't change his position, he still held his neck with his left hand and his buttocks with his right hand, but he had enough strength, and his arms were obviously tense, for fear that the baby would slide down.

He probably got bored waiting for the noodles, looking up at the street from time to time, or teasing and teasing the children. Inadvertently tucked the quilt. There was a sudden pause in his hand, and a note was pulled out of it.

Unfolded it and looked at it in confusion, then glanced back at the boss, and then secretly hid in, pretending to be calm.

Soon, a bowl of steaming noodles was served on the table, the craftsmanship was good, the taste was fierce, and Chu Qing was also really eating. Snorr quickly got it done, "How much?" ”

"Two pieces."

He got up and took out the money, and asked casually, "Do you want this kid?" ”

"What do I want him to do, it's useless."

"Then I'll do it."

"Here you go. You take it away. "The boss didn't fight, and he was extremely happy to transfer the trouble.

"Over!"

At this time, Wang Chao shouted loudly: "Prepare for the next game!" ”

Pass?

Chu Qing couldn't help blinking, and his mood was a little delicate in an instant.

Just that scene. He felt that the performance was very, very flat, although there was no mistake, everything that should be shown was done. But it's just dull, and the whole body can't lift up.

It can't be said that it's rotten, but it really doesn't have the slightest look, and the level of more than 70 points is not up or down.

As for Wang Chao, after all, he took the path of semi-documentary, just like Jia Zhangke when he was filming "Xiao Wu", he pursued more about the overall atmosphere of the film and whether he clearly expressed the sense of picture in his head. As for the play of individual actors, there is really no concept.

In his opinion, Chu Qing has done a very good job, the love is appropriate, the details are exquisite, and the Henan dialect is enough to deceive people, what is there to dislike.

If this is changed to Lou Ye, it will be a proper NG.

There are three scenes tonight, the scenes are different, and the preparation is more cumbersome. He looked at Wang Chao's clumsy command of the crew, and thought about it, but he didn't take the initiative to reshoot another one.

Because even if it is remade, it is estimated that the effect is similar to this one, and the essential problem has not been solved, so he can only rely on his foundation and skills to support it, and he can't invest in emotions.

……

Da Gang is a laid-off worker who lives in the old dormitory building of the factory, has no savings, and does not even have money to eat bowls of noodles. I can only take the leftover canteen food tickets and exchange some change with my co-workers to save my life.

Then, he picked up a child, like a prop in custody, which simply meant that it could bring in two hundred dollars a month.

Then Da Gang slept with the prostitute and said, "I'll help you take care of the child, and you can do it with me."

Do what?

Meat business, of course.

So, he set up a car repair stall in front of his house, stuffed the children into bamboo baskets, filled a jug of milk every day, and watched prostitutes lead all kinds of men in and out.

Occasionally, when they are free, the two will hold their children, go shopping together, eat stalls, buy clothes, watch the roadside singers, and even take a pseudo family photo.

Men are on the left, women are on the right, children are in the middle, men are restrained, and women are happy.

Chu Qing had a hard time understanding this emotion at first, too, too great, right? Wang Chao shrugged his shoulders and said, "What's so incomprehensible, whoever lives to that level will be so great." ”

It was already midnight, Chu Qing returned to the hotel after work, lying on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, and kept thinking about this sentence: Who lives to that job......

After tossing for a long time, I really figured out some taste. Before, he only felt that he lacked familiarity with the city, but now, he found that what he lacked was even more of a fit for the character.

He sat up jerkily and smashed his thigh with a fist. Thinking about it this way, I can't say that the mouth is suddenly opened, at least there is a clear explanation. Hao Rong mentioned it in class: Isn't it just to experience life!

Actors, wipe yourself clean, change to another identity, throw yourself into a strange city, face strange people, you have to accurately perform the most fitting image in the film.

What to do?

The best prelude is to experience life. Chu Qing knew this, but he hadn't tried it at all, and he was a little bit of a bull for a while.

In fact, it's very strange, counting his individual scenes, it seems that he needs to experience it every time, but he doesn't need it:

For example, Xiao Wu, Jia Zhangke's focus is not on how he steals, but on how he lives. He tried his best to act, to understand, under the pale tone of the whole film. It's quite outstanding.

It's like a motor, it's a mixed dock, but it doesn't talk about how he kills people and shoots guns, it's about special love. It doesn't matter what life you don't live with, love is right, and everything is right.

As for the second neck, an ignorant peasant, Chu Qing has been in the field since he was a child, and he is very familiar with the smell of scum.

and Zhao Zixuan. The salesman who sells printing presses, but he doesn't talk about business at all, but talks about the old days with his old lover.

The rest of Cui Mingming, hey, only this one, it shoots the city, shoots the people, and it really has the meaning of experiencing life. But the problem is that the shooting cycle is long. In the end, not only did he experience it, he was about to become a Fenyang person, can he not act well?

Traditionally, experiencing life is the foundation of an actor's performance. Shelving the sixties. That will be a movie for a year or two, and people will play farmers, and they will really go to the countryside and plant land for three months. I know how to cut the grass and how to plant the seedlings.

Now, how can the filmmaker have so much time for you to squander. I can't wait to finalize it half a month in advance, saying that you will be asked to play this role.

Chu Qing took over "Anyang Baby" in August, and started it in October, for nearly two months, he was completely delayed by messy things, and he didn't spend much time figuring out the characters.

And Da Gang is different from other characters, he is low to the bones, from cold, to warm, to cold, and then to a bang, sparsely broken, and completely dark side of society.

So I was stupid for a few minutes, and then I remembered to hold my feet temporarily.

Even if you can't really go to a prostitute to sleep, to adopt a child to play, at least repair a car, get laid off, love to eat noodles, never have sex and often masturbate...... These externalized elements are done sufficiently, and they can still fit the role to the greatest extent.

Chu Qing continued to lie down for a while, never sleepy, looked at his phone, it was one o'clock in the morning. I simply got up and moved lightly to the corridor, I wanted to go to the balcony to smoke a cigarette and stand idle.

When passing by Wang Chao's room, he saw a ray of light shining through the crack in the door, and he couldn't help but pause.

"Knock knock!" He knocked on the door.

"Who?"

"Me, Brother Chao."

Wang Chao opened the door and said strangely: "You haven't slept so late?" ”

"I can't sleep, what are you doing?"

"I'll put some information together."

"Oh." Chu Qing hesitated for a moment, wanting to take the opportunity to talk to him, but he was afraid that it would affect others.

"If there's something, come in and talk about it." Wang Chao sensed what he meant and said with a smile.

"I won't bother you." He said polite words and went into the house.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry to use it, I just can't sleep to tidy it up." Wang Chao cleaned up the messy papers on the desktop and said: "I used to write novels, and I was inspired in the middle of the night. ”

"It's not a good habit."

Chu Qing smiled, I don't know how to speak, after all, I am not kind, and I was entangled again, Fang said: "Brother Chao, is our film plan a one-month cycle?" ”

"yes, didn't you already know."

"Then can you shoot someone else's scene first and put mine behind." He said embarrassedly.

"Huh? What's wrong, Aoko, what's wrong? Wang Chao said with concern.

"No, no, I just feel that the current state has not come out, and I have to adapt to it for a while......" Chu Qing told him his thoughts and said, "...... Well, if that's the case, I feel, it feels better. ”

Then he added: "If it can't be arranged, forget it, I'm also temporary." ”

Wang Chao was surprised, he really thought that Chu Qing acted very well, who would have thought that he would still be keen to slap himself in the face? can listen to this flicker, I can't help but feel a little more moved.

He lowered his head and thought about it for a while, then suddenly picked up the script on the bed, stroked a few pages with a pen, and pursed his lips: "You estimate, how many days will it take you?" ”

"I'm not sure to say, uh, three days or four ......."

"A week!"

Wang Chao stretched out his hand to interrupt him and said, "Is a week enough?" ”

(The head is dizzy, how does it look like a chapter of gibberish?) Anyway, I can't eat at all now, I keep vomiting and vomiting, and I can't vomit anything decent, how can I break it? orz…… (To be continued......)
