Chapter Eighty-Seven: Makeup
013-10-12
Sister I, don't say it, I've memorized it. Lin Xiao sat helplessly in the waiting hall, sighed and chattered next to him.
"I'm not at ease! I glanced at him, "You must know that Hong Kong and Taiwan artists can't afford the domestic entertainment industry in the end, in fact, it's also because domestic films are not as well-known as Hong Kong and Taiwan." β
Lin Xiao sneered, "If you look down on them, you have to shoot, in recent years, the Hong Kong film industry has been low, and Taiwan's film and television have tended to be saturated, and they don't go north to pan for gold, they plan to go to RΓ¬ Korea to pan for gold?" β
"Look! What did I just say to you?! i was furious, "No matter what you think, co-production with Hong Kong and Taiwan artists, it is strictly forbidden to have regional differences!" Once this kind of thing is poked out, it is a big deal! How many years has it been since Hong Kong's return to the motherland? Do you remember how Ah Mei was banned? That's a regulation issued by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television himself! Do you still want to be blocked by the three major theaters in Hong Kong at the same time?! β
Lin Xiao sighed bitterly, "Here we go again...... I know, absolutely not, I promise. β
However, it was not until he got on the plane that I told him several times that he watched him enter the boarding gate with trepidation.
"What a nuisance." She looked at the back of the boarding gate, suddenly laughed, and dialed her mobile phone, "Uncle He, yes, I'm Lingzi, how did you think about the last time...... All right...... I'll get back to you when he comes back. β
The plane lifted white clouds across the blue sky and finally landed at Hong Kong Airport.
After getting off the plane, Lin Xiao pushed his sunglasses, although it was already October, the weather here was still windy and beautiful, which was completely different from the smell of winter in bΔijΔ«ng.
"Brother Lin." As soon as he got off the plane, he saw a black sedan parked at the airport. As soon as he saw him come out, Huang Bo got out of the car with a smile on his face, came up and patted him on the shoulder.
"That's all?"
"Brother Huang, the god jΔ«ng is getting better and better recently." Lin Xiao smiled and said, "It's just to set the makeup, go back and forth for a day or two at most, and bring a set of changes is enough." β
"This is thanks to Brother Lin's phone call at the beginning. Otherwise, I wouldn't have imagined myself stepping on the land of Oriental Hollywood so soon. Huang Bo smiled modestly, "I thought that I could only be in the mainland for the rest of my life, but I didn't expect ......"
"However, Brother Lin is still developing well, I heard that you recently voted for the crew that will never give up?"
"It's been a few days, and there has been no news." Lin Xiao smiled and shook his head, "I'm afraid it's no fun." β
The two chatted and got into the car, Hong Kong reporters are far crazier than the mainland, if there is a paparazzi blocking the two at the door, I am afraid it will be difficult to arrive on time.
The car quickly drove out of the airport and ran for more than an hour before it came to the edge of Kwun Tong District.
This time, I rented a large makeup company in Kwun Tong District, and I also had a complete set of props. When they arrived, several cars were already parked in front of the door.
As soon as they arrived at the door, there was a parking boy service, and after stopping, the two directly entered the company called "Golden Shadow Art". And inside, there are already quite a few people sitting.
"How can there be so many people?" Huang Bo was also taken aback, and looked at his watch suspiciously, "There were only a few when I went out first, and there weren't so many people in the crew?" Didn't you say that the company had already been rented? β
Lin Xiao smiled, "Brother Huang, you don't know this." The movie pays attention to the lens language, a scene is much longer than TV, there is no time to touch up makeup, it is likely that TV shoots more than ten minutes of footage, and the movie needs to shoot dozens of minutes, and then edit. Although it was only ten minutes at the end, the effect was completely different. β
Seeing that Huang Bo was stunned, he remembered that the other party was on the big screen for the first time, and he couldn't help but ask with concern, "Brother Huang...... You...... Is this the first time you've made a movie? β
Huang Bo nodded and asked modestly, "You are quite experienced?" β
"I don't have experience, I know a little." Lin Xiao decided to be more detailed, "For such a long time, actors are likely to sweat, so the makeup of the movie is absolutely waterproof no matter what brand it is." To determine what kind of brand to use, the minds of the lighting team, makeup team, and props team need to discuss together. These people you see should be. β
Huang Bo nodded thoughtfully.
Lin Xiao pointed to the people in the hall and said, "Not only that, but makeup hurts the skin very much. Brother Huang, you also know that the face is the second most important thing for an artist, and repeatedly determining the makeup during the makeup setting process is very harmful in the long run. β
After speaking, he added with a smile, "If we become a star after rΓ¬, we must all have our own exclusive makeup artist, as well as a maintenance artist, which is indispensable." β
"Come on, I don't know how long that day will be." Huang Bo also smiled.
At this moment, Zhou Xingchi walked out of it, clapped his hands, and said with a smile, "Welcome to Hong Kong, since we are all members of the crew now, I won't say polite words like thanking everyone for their hard work." β
As soon as he spoke, the hall was silent for almost thirty people.
Zhou Xingchi looked at his watch and said, "I am a pragmatic person, whether it is acting or directing, I don't like politeness, and I don't want to delay the crew process because of politeness." Everyone knows what this drama means to me, so I won't waste time, I will start applying makeup right now, and strive to get the makeup result out within today, ok, let's go! β
Everyone is working with Zhou Xingchi for the first time, and now his position is different, not an actor, but a director who controls the life and death of a play, and in the crew, his words are holy decrees.
As soon as this sentence ended, everyone moved. And Zhou Xingchi beckoned, and several makeup artists walked up to him and began to listen to him assign one-on-one tasks.
Lin Xiao and Huang Bo sat next to them and chatted, watching Zhou Xingchi explain their requirements to the makeup artists. Just then, a voice sounded behind him.
"Is this the setting point of Shaolin football?"
"Yes." Lin Xiao replied casually, turned his head and was about to see who was speaking, when he was suddenly stunned.
With a slightly pointed monkey gill, small eyes, and a bald head, there are almost no Chinese audiences and even artists who don't know this appearance. It was in 93 that he became famous with the play "Alive", and has won the Best Actor three times so far.
"Teacher Ge!" After reacting, he hurriedly shouted.
As soon as this voice was shouted, the surroundings fell silent.
Many people's eyes were cast, and almost all of them were taken aback when they saw the bald head with the sign xìng.
"Ge Wei? It's really the actor Ge Wei! "How did he come to the Shaolin football set?" "Could it be an undisclosed actor? No way? β
The sound of discussion became louder in this corner, and it seemed unusually abrupt in the quiet hall.
Zhou Xingchi frowned, looked up to see what was disturbing him, and happened to see Ge Wei in a black suit.
"Mr. Ge." The trace of anger that had just risen immediately disappeared without a trace, and he changed his smile and walked over, "Why don't you notify me in advance, no one is going to greet Mr. Ge, it's really rude." β
"I can do it myself, Director Zhou doesn't have to be so troublesome." Ge Wei smiled and still looked like "jiΔn", and shook hands with Zhou Xingchi.
The people around were even more surprised, they really had an appointment early, what the hell is going on?
"It's a pity that Mr. Ge turned down my invitation three times, otherwise, we would have been able to compose a comedy classic together today." Zhou Xingchi sighed and said, "It is my dereliction of duty not to invite such an excellent actor." β
"Where, Director Zhou's sincerity is enough, it's just that I really can't spare the schedule." The two exchanged a few polite words, but they had already caused an uproar around.
"Zhou Xingchi has asked Ge Wei to shoot Shaolin football? And three invitations? Huang Bo looked at the two people who had become the center of the crowd in disbelief and said in shock.
"Ge Wei hasn't agreed yet?" He frowned slightly, "This is a good opportunity to further expand the Hong Kong and Taiwan markets, why give up?" β
"I think it's inevitable that he will give up." Lin Xiao said lightly, "Brother Huang, think about it, Ge Wei has already won the best actor three times, and the big-screen actor deserves his name, this kind of famous person cherishes his feathers very much, he will not take this kind of risk." Moreover, his style is indeed very different from Zhou Xingchi. β
The sound of "card" was particularly clear in everyone's ears.
Without it, it's too sensitive to this sound.
"Who?!" Zhou Xingchi, who was talking to Ge Wei, suddenly sank his face and immediately asked.
The atmosphere immediately cooled down, and everyone looked at each other.
Zhou Xingchi apologized to Ge Wei, and when he turned his head, his face was already cold.
"Who? Stand up. β
Still no one answered.
"I don't know who it is, right?" He snorted, "How many times have I said that makeup photos don't come out for a moment, and photos are not allowed for a moment!" Who broke the rules just now? β
"Come out now, just delete the photos. If you want me to find out, then go out of the crew by myself. β
Lin Xiao saw that Ge Wei behind Zhou Xingchi gently picked the corner of his eyes, but he didn't say anything.
Even he didn't expect that Zhou Xingchi and the Golden Horse Awards at the scene, Zhou Xingchi at the audition, almost became two people.
I'm afraid Ge Wei thinks the same way now.
He of the Golden Horse Award is the mentor of Gao Lan ChΕ«n who generally promotes the younger generations, and now he is a tyrannical king, but this king is right, but the punishment is too harsh.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly dropped to freezing, and in this embarrassing atmosphere, a timid voice finally sounded, "Zhou...... Director Zhou...... It's me, I just want to pat Mr. Ge. I...... I also saw a real person ...... for the first time."
"No need to explain!" Zhou Xingchi interrupted the other party's words, "Don't listen to the director's words? What else do you want to do? Mobile phone to me. β
"Director Zhou......"
"Bring it!"
"This is the makeup artist I brought in." At this moment, a female voice that was colder than Zhou Xingchi sounded, "What's wrong with taking a photo?" β
Who dares to touch Zhou Xingchi's moldy head at such a time? Everyone was stunned, and their eyes looked at the person who made the sound.
"You brought it here?" Seeing the person who spoke clearly, Zhou Xingchi's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity.
