The Han River can be described as the mother river of South Korea, and the Korean people have the same feelings for it as the Chinese do for the Yangtze River.

A sparkling river, across the two banks, steamers come and go in the water, and the shore is full of tourists.

The rest area of the Han River is the most inconspicuous of the countless rest areas on both sides of the river, but this rest area is opposite Seouldi

The 63 Building, a high-rise building, is not far from the Korean Convention Hall, which is equivalent to the Great Hall of the People, and the Wonhyo Bridge across Yongsan-gu and Wondeungpo-gu stands like a giant in the middle of the river, looking around the entire Han River.

And today, this little-known rest area will be famous because of this day, and the second blockbuster in Korean history after the Taiji flag is flying will kick off in this rest area.

Nearly 100 crew members have prepared everything in place, including the truck hotel, makeup team, props team, lighting team, and camera crew...... The group was already engrossed, like an army about to depart, looking at Bong Joon-ho at the front.

In front of Bong Joon-ho, there was a round table one meter square, and on the table, there was a large pig's head that was brined with gold.

Unlike the Chinese boot-up ceremony, there is nothing else except a pig's head.

Lin Xiao watched all this with interest, and a childish voice suddenly sounded beside him: "Brother, are you wondering why there is only one pig's head?" ”

He turned around and laughed, talking to him was the crew's "cute," Gao Yaxing, who played his daughter in the play, who is only thirteen years old this year.

The childish Gao Yaxing, who has a cute mushroom head, eats a piece of candy, flashes his big eyes and says, "That's because pig's head represents good luck in Korea...... Therefore, the large-scale crew will worship the pig's head when they start filming...... I can't see my brother, can you pick me up? ”

"Okay." Lin Xiao hugged the other party with a smile and asked, "How do you know so much?" ”

"That's because Sister Yaxing has been acting since she was a child, and she has watched too much."

The two chatted with each other, they were in the first row, and in the same row were the veteran artist Bian Xifeng, the new artist Park Hae-il, and Zheng Duobin, who was silent and couldn't see his expression at all.

These five people, one family, three generations of grandchildren, formed the starring role of the monster of the Han River.

Behind them, there are a number of minor actors, standing with the crew, and on the periphery, hundreds of ensembles.

Bong Joon-ho solemnly bowed to the pig's head several times before turning his head and picking up the horn.

At this moment, all the calculations on his body disappeared, Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows, and for the first time, he saw the aura that belonged to the director appear on Bong Junhao, and he was no longer the scheming high-level of the film and drama club.

"Everyone." He shouted, "I don't need to say much about what everyone is gathered here for. This is Seoul, the capital of South Korea! Your every move is being seen by the top peers in the country! I named this film Monster, not only to become a monster of the Han River, but also to become a monster of Korea! Become the box office monster in all of Asia! ”

He looked around the scene, "Everybody's the top guys in this industry, the special effects team isn't here, but I'll tell you, they've made The Lord of the Rings!" Made Harry Potter! The team that made King Kong! There are many masters, do you have confidence? ”

"Yes!" Although it is a cutscene, this feeling of a piece of heaven and a hell is known to everyone who does film and television, and suddenly, there was a shout like a landslide and tsunami below.

"Very good. This Christmas, the monster will scare everyone's heart! Bong Joon-ho looked around the scene with satisfaction, and immediately began to divide labor non-stop, "Each team will start work and report in half an hour!" Now, get started! ”

With his order, the whole set became a sensation.

No reporters came in, and this time the boot was completely isolated, but outside the isolation zone, groups of reporters desperately took pictures.

Almost a kilometer of land was encircled, and several large groups, all of them were busy in this circle.

"Mr. Lin, what I'm going to shoot today is the seventh scene, and I can finish it the most." Just as Lin Xiao entered the dressing room, the staff came in with a notebook.

"Mr. Lin, if it's not too troublesome, how about I talk about acting while putting on makeup?"

Lin Xiao closed his eyes, held bottles and cans in front of him, and nodded slightly.

"I'm sorry, let me explain first, there is a reason for filming this scene, this scene is a big riot in the whole rest area after the monster appeared, we have hired a total of 300 group performers, and a day of delay is the price of an extra day, so we must shoot first." The deputy director haha, "This scene, it's a monster that appears, tracking passers-by, and all pedestrians in the rest area spread outside, but I believe this can be done in a few times, and the trouble is ......."

He quietly glanced at Lin Xiao, who had closed his eyes, and continued to haha, "The trouble is that Mr. Lin has an emotional long mirror. ”

Lin Xiao's eyes moved when he closed his eyes, and the stylist just wanted to have a seizure, so he swallowed it again.

Emotional long shot, if he remembers correctly, he must be talking about the protagonist Park Kangdou pulling his daughter to avoid the monster, pulling the wrong person, and finally watching his daughter being swept away by the monster for about a minute.

The so-called long shots only refer to the length of this paragraph, often a movie is divided into one or two hundred scenes, but these scenes are too finely divided, which will cause the incoherence of the picture, or the conversion. The appearance of long shots is often that the director needs a set of completely perfect, without any segmentation to express a thing, and in his memory, the most famous is that the seven-minute long shot at the beginning of Johnny To's major event won the Golden Horse Award.

The long shot, the most test is an actor's fundamental acting skills, it can be said that Lin Xiao is not worth $3.2 million, and the result can be seen in less than a minute after the final editing

And Lin Xiao knew that the difficulty of the long shot of the Hanjiang monster was definitely beyond any long shot he had ever shot before!

It's not that he hasn't filmed, and when he painted the skin, he himself used long shots, but the Hanjiang monster is a mime here!

There is not a single line, there is not a single sound, only pure pictures!

The most important thing is that these tens of seconds are almost all close-ups of his face!

He needs to use ten out of ten skills to show Park Kang-doo's feelings at that time, and because there are no lines or voices, if his feelings exceed or are not enough, anyway, it means that it is not "just right," and his reputation will be over.

This is South Korea, under the guidance of the government, the Korean people have a very poor impression of China, he picks this beam, of course, it is the trend of the times, heaven, earth and man are indispensable, but there is definitely criticism in the crew, maybe Bian Xifeng, Park Hae-il and they will look at him.

If he doesn't act well, no one will be convinced, maybe next time the makeup artist dares to fall into the trap, you can also get $3.2 million?

He smiled silently in his heart, Bong Joon-ho picked this shot to make a "good start," not necessarily without other thoughts in it.

The director knows the difficulty of this scene, but if he plays this scene well, he will win half of the Blue Dragon Award, once he doesn't act well, the crew will definitely have criticism, and when the time comes, Bong Junhao will come out as a director to protect it, Lin Xiao is still not grateful to Dade? Even if he doesn't, he also accepted his favor, and when there was no second video network in South Korea, this favor was not worth much? The upcoming Yingxing will be in the confrontation between the government, and he is embarrassed not to contribute?

"I can't help but think too well......" He sneered, it's not that he hasn't seen Song Kanghao's acting skills, they are indeed high, Song Kanghao, Cui Minzhi, Xue Jingqiu, the three of them are close to 1,200, especially Song Kanghao has exceeded 1,200.

It's a pity that he was 1,200 years ago, and the people who are waiting to watch the play are afraid that they won't be able to laugh when the time comes.

Mr. Lin...... Do you understand? ”

"Understood." Lin Xiao felt that there were still brushes moving on his face, and he didn't open his eyes, these blockbusters, he was almost memorized, and it was the same whether he heard it or not.

The staff left respectfully, and as soon as they went out, a man about one meter seventy-five, with a flushed face and two thick eyebrows asked angrily, "What did he say?" ”

"Kim Min-seok assistant director......" The staff was startled and hurriedly saluted, "He didn't say anything." ”

"Didn't say that?"

"Nope."

Kim Min-seok frowned slightly outside the make-up room of the makeshift boardroom, and turned around several times, "I didn't say it...... Didn't say that? ”

"Does he not even know the difficulty of this shot or does he not care?"

The staff swallowed, "I look at the way he looks...... I seem to be quite confident......"

"Confident fart!" Kim Min-seok took out a cigarette, touched his pocket a few times and found that there was no fire, and was about to start to get irritable, the staff quickly handed over a lighter, he took a deep breath, and then spit out the cyan smoke ring, "He is famous in China, but this is South Korea!" I can't figure out why the director doesn't need to use Mr. Song Kang-ho! Is he worth three million dollars? Mr. Song's salary is not as high as his! ”

He is not a core personnel, and he has no idea what is involved in Lin Xiao's takeover of the Hanjiang Monster, which is a major event that can shock the whole of South Korea after three and a half years!

"I don't feel at ease when I think Director Feng, otherwise this kind of shot is really confident, why put it in the first scene, it's all the same scene, and it will go down one by one."

The staff did not dare to open their mouths and quietly listened to Kim Min-seok's complaints.

"Alright, let's go." Kim Min-seok waved his hand with a headache, "Dog's ...... Any one is three million dollars, is it really a foreign monk who is good at chanting? ”

Thirty minutes later, everyone finished their makeup and came to the edge of the Han River.

cute and beautiful elegant stars, as well as Lin Xiao in casual clothes, and hundreds of group performers.

Kim Min-seok put away all his thoughts and told the two of them again, especially Lin Xiao, who spoke more carefully than Gao Yaxing.

This is invisible contempt, maybe he didn't realize that telling a play to an international artist in his twenties was more detailed than a thirteen-year-old girl?

And on the periphery, there are already a lot of people around.

Byun Hee-bong, Lee Tae-in, Jung Do-bin, Park Hae-il, everyone stood on the sidelines with different thoughts.
