Chapter 692: Pleasant Shooting
PS: xiexie civet cat, Ehime, Yiruo Xuefei, and Xiaojushi's tips!
Cui Zhengyuan arrived in Yucheng on January 23.
Before the plane landed, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh when he looked through the porthole at the fireworks that came out of the ground from time to time.
I can't remember how many Spring Festivals, and he hasn't spent it with his relatives.
So much so that when I think of this festival now, I don't have any impression in my heart.
This is not a good sign, on the one hand, it means that people have grown up, and on the other hand, it means that people have begun to become apathetic.
Next year's Spring Festival must not be so busy, and we must spend a reunion Spring Festival with our parents and Juli.
Even if the guarantee of this is only one percent, Cui Zhengyuan still swore silently.
Looking at Jung Sung-hye and Park Jung-jae, who were also staring at the ground, Choi Jung-won was full of apologies. "I'm sorry, every year during the Spring Festival, you can't reunite with your family."
Zheng Xinghuai came back to his senses and said with a smile: "What do you say, where is the extravagant hope of festivals in our business." ”
"No matter how difficult the environment is, it's nothing." Park Jung-jae was succinct and to the point.
After getting off the plane, I met Li Anhao, who came to pick him up.
"Crazy Stone" is currently the most important project of the China branch, and he, the host, naturally has to supervise it in Yucheng.
Cui Zhengyuan came in person, and it happened that he, an idler, was in charge of the reception.
got into the car, and on the way to the hotel, Cui Zhengyuan asked about the work of the branch. "What is the current situation of "Wulin Gaiden"?"
Speaking of this TV series, Ang Lee smiled like a flower. "I didn't say it, it's just popular. Yesterday, the ratings have exceeded three percent, and it has become a high-quality drama series of CCTV. ”
"Does Yao Chen have any activities scheduled now?" The TV series is popular, and Cui Zhengyuan is most concerned about the situation of his artists.
Although Yao Chen was not the first artist signed by the Chinese branch, he was the first to become popular.
So Ang Lee is a good person in Yucheng, but he doesn't pay a lot of attention to Yao Chen. "Didn't say that. The fame has completely begun, and now several movies and TV series have sent invitations to her. I've asked her agent to find a new work for her, and try to consolidate her current popularity. ”
"Well, that's good. But you still have to pay more attention, and don't take on bad dramas for some small profits. For Yao Chen at this time, reputation is more important than money. Cui Zhengyuan commanded cautiously.
He was afraid that Li Anhao would be anxious for quick success and quick profit, eager to create performance, and do things to kill chickens and take eggs.
"Don't worry, Izuihou have always been the gatekeeper in this regard. It's not a powerful company, a powerful director. and potential works, I'd rather not take them. "Ang Lee adheres to Cui Zhengyuan's habit in this regard, and attaches great importance to the excellence of his works.
"That's good, I'm relieved that you think so. By the way, how's the shooting going over here? Having said that, Cui Zhengyuan still cares about the crew of "Crazy Stone" that is about to enter.
"Haha, Executive, you haven't seen it yet. This crew is really the most interesting crew I've seen so far. When filming. It's almost from beginning to end, and it doesn't stop at all. Everyone is relaxed and comfortable to shoot. It's so funny just to watch the shooting, and it's estimated that it will wait for the official release. It's sure to attract a lot of viewers. As soon as Ang Lee remembered what he had seen and heard in the crew, he couldn't help laughing.
Hearing him say this, Cui Zhengyuan couldn't help but look forward to it.
Since Cui Zhengyuan is here, then Ning Hao waved his hand. The next main scene is dominated by him.
The first scene is very short, and it is the scene where Feng Dong's assistant Four Eyes goes to Xiangjiang to invite the international thief Mike.
This is the first time Cui Zhengyuan has met the actor Wang Xun of Four Eyes, a very distinctive local actor.
If you just look at the image. is definitely the best choice for the villain of the obscene stream.
"Hello Executive Cui, if there is anything that is not good for a while, you can bear more." Wang Xun is from a local repertory troupe, and it is inevitable that he will be a little nervous when he sees such a big name as Cui Zhengyuan for the first time.
He didn't have many opportunities to come out to film, and he basically mixed up in Sichuan Province.
I heard that many big-name actors have a bad temper, and when they are filming, they start to train people when they don't go well, and even pick and choose.
finally had the opportunity to touch the big screen, Wang Xun cherished this opportunity. So before starting, I carefully greeted Cui Zhengyuan.
looked at Wang Xun, who was nervous, and the translator next to him who was also nervous and excited.
Cui Zhengyuan smiled slightly, and said in Chinese with correct words: "Teacher Wang Xun is polite, you are an excellent entertainer." I should learn more from you. ”
Although the other party is not famous, he has been immersed in art creation for decades.
Whether it is experience or performance in a special environment like Yucheng, it is not comparable to Cui Zhengyuan.
In areas that you are not good at, it is better to follow the guidance of professionals.
Cui Zhengyuan still has this self-knowledge.
"Wow, Executive Cui, your Chinese is really good. If you hadn't known in advance, you wouldn't have thought you were a foreigner. Wang Xun was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.
It's not that he hasn't seen foreigners, and it's not uncommon for foreigners who can speak Chinese.
It is rare to be like Cui Zhengyuan, who can speak Chinese more standard than him.
Wang Xun has been active in Sichuan and Chongqing all year round, and his accent inevitably has a strong Sichuan flavor.
Compared with Cui Zhengyuan's pure standard Mandarin pronunciation, which has not been tainted by any local characteristics, it really hurts self-esteem.
"Haha, I said Lao Wang, now you believe it. I told you a long time ago that our boss's Chinese is this. Huang Bo didn't know that he had come out of that corner, and he showed off his Shandong dialect to Wang Xun.
Seeing that Cui Zhengyuan was easier to communicate, Wang Xun was also a lot easier. "That's great, you don't have to translate if you film for a while."
Glancing at the translator who was following Wang Xun, Huang Bo said with a big grin: "You are redundant, and you have hired a translator at your own expense." ”
"Oh, isn't this Mr. Translator invited by the crew?" Cui Zhengyuan only now knew that in order to communicate with him, Wang Xun actually hired a portable translator at his own expense.
You know, even if this kind of translation is for college students, the price is not low.
Wang Xun is an actor in a repertory troupe. Take a fixed dead wage. It seems that in order to communicate with himself, he really made a bloody investment.
Thinking of this, Cui Zhengyuan instructed Li Anhao: "You settle the remuneration of this translator in a while, Mr. Wang Xun is now a member of our crew, how can he spend money to hire a translator?" ”
"Yes, I'll do it." As he spoke, Li Anhao walked over quickly and pulled the translator to the side to settle the settlement.
Seeing this scene, Wang Xun was very embarrassed. said again and again: "No, no, Executive Cui, this is a private invitation from me, how can I let the crew spend money?" ”
Cui Zhengyuan pulled him aside and said, "Okay, okay, some little things, Mr. Wang don't worry about it." Let's get the script right. Although there are only two sentences, it always has to satisfy Director Ning Hao, right? ”
The translation remuneration of several thousand yuan is nothing to Cui Zhengyuan. It was Wang Xun who saved a sum of money. I am grateful to Choi Jung-won.
With excitement, I was even more attentive to the rehearsal.
The makeup artist came over and began to set Cui Zhengyuan's makeup according to Ning Hao's request.
An international thief must have the demeanor of an international thief, unlike Wang Xun and others who only need to find a suit and a suit. It's full of local flavor.
A slim black leather jacket, short hair that falls neatly to the roots, red studs on the ears, and chewing gum that is always in the mouth.
Cui Zhengyuan's appearance. It aroused everyone's applause.
Ning Hao was also very satisfied, and walked around him twice. "Well, yes, yes. It's really like an international thief with extraordinary strength. ”
"It's this thief who is more unlucky next." Huang Bo joked.
In the whole movie, in addition to the black skin he played, Cui Zhengyuan's international thief was the most unlucky.
The two can be regarded as sympathetic to each other, difficult brothers.
"That's how you can highlight the comedic effect of contrast." Ning Hao said, and also pointed out Cui Zhengyuan's role in the play.
"Yo, it's hidden deep enough, tailor." Wang Xun said with a cheap smile on his face in the richly decorated room.
Of course, this scene will not go to Xiangjiang to shoot, and it is not worth running over deliberately in just a few seconds of footage.
The location they filmed was actually a borrowed venue in a high-end commercial building in Chongqing.
I heard that the international superstar Cui Zhengyuan wanted to use it for filming, and the shopping mall mentioned the venue for free without saying a word.
The only requirement is that the mall logo should be displayed in a flash during the movie.
This kind of deeply hidden product placement, Cui Zhengyuan and Ning Hao are indispensable, so they naturally agreed.
"It's a costume designer." Cui Zhengyuan walked over in a dashing manner, and without looking at the scissors in his hand, he cut off the cigarette in Wang Xun's mouth, and then caught it with an ashtray in his other hand.
The whole process is smooth and done in one go.
In particular, he caught the cigarette butt firmly without looking at the landing point, which is completely the style of the world's top master.
and his similar Hong Kong-style Mandarin, which is also very appropriate.
Everyone believes that even if you find a pure Xiangjiang person, it will be like this.
It seems that although it is only a cameo, Cui Zhengyuan's basic skills are quite in place.
As mentioned earlier, the skills of an actor like Wang Xun are not questioned.
Even the surprise of the moment when the smoking was stopped was well interpreted, and the subsequent adjustments were also brilliant. "Tell me, what's the price?"
Cui Zhengyuan's eyes stared at the jade in the photo, his gaze deep and distant.
His tone was deep and firm, full of unwavering determination and confidence in the completion of the task. "All I need is a ticket."
Seeing his performance, even the crew was fascinated.
However, thinking of the current demeanor and the series of unlucky accidents after that, everyone actually laughed after the director shouted "cut". (To be continued......)
