Chapter 76: Program Recording
Zhang Yang has never been so happy, and seeing everyone again is the same as seeing his family, and he has been greeting for a long time. Many actors are popular because of this drama, and it can be said that even group performances can't find any problems. But any character who can play one or two episodes, from his appearance to death, will lead to a topic, and they have become classic characters. But the most classic is none other than these young people, who achieve each other, so they have such a reputation, of course, the most famous of this drama is the director and Zhang Yang, followed by Zou Kai and others.
The event site is very large, but very concise, it is a special session for the entire crew, according to the arrangement of the TV station staff, both sides are full of actors, and in the middle are several protagonists, directors and producers.
At the beginning of the recording, everyone thanked the audience for their love, Zhang Yang felt that the film and television drama industry is also a service industry, and what is made must resonate with human nature and make people think, no matter what age group it is for, the audience loves it, even if the service is in place, it is considered a success. If it can satisfy the tastes of all the public at the same time, it is art, and there is no need to deliberately cater to it, these are the words that Director Cai often sighs.
If the things filmed are not in line with real human nature at all, Director Cai classifies this kind of work as: obscene works. Although he didn't say it very explicitly, the implication was rubbish. There are masterworks in any industry, and at the same time there are also very garbage works, and the production of such a team is not only garbage in content, garbage in actors, and even more garbage in directors, but also extremely poor in taste, and it is completely a rabble. They are swaggering and deceiving all over the country, boasting about themselves, and making the atmosphere of the entire industry a miasma, so that good people cannot survive, and wicked people do many unrighteous acts. When the director said these words, he did not hide them at all, and kept being sarcastic and sarcastic, although he didn't say much, but the words came from the bottom of his heart, maybe he held back for a long time, even if he said so, there would be bursts of applause at the scene.
Zhang Yang still remembers the first time he met the director in class, when he appeared as an assistant director, he looked very respectful, he really didn't see that he had much ability, his behavior was unconventional, and he seemed to be an honest person. Zhang Yang listened to the director, thinking that people are really unseemly, he not only has his own unique ideas and opinions, but he never deliberately designs and disguises when he speaks, his thinking is very jumpy, and whatever he says comes when he opens his mouth, this is a typical example of scolding people without dirty words, but it can make people think deeply.
Zhang Yang only knows that filming, acting, and the use of equipment and so on that the director said about the storyboard, the use of machinery and equipment, etc., he only knows the feeling of being very powerful.
Director Cai didn't talk a lot about himself, he took care of the producers and others, and constantly introduced them into the main topic, the people from the Ministry of Culture said that the first thing after seeing the script was support, and after the producer saw it, he went all out to promote the shooting, almost the whole process was very smooth, until the shooting was completed, everyone said that they had never seen such a difficult film, and everything was so smooth work team.
When it was Zhang Yang's turn, Zhang Yang thanked the director and the audience for a while, as well as Director Yang, who had worked with him before, he all thanked him from the bottom of his heart. During the interactive session, the program team played a few minutes of twenty-eight episodes, which is the town where Zhang Yang lives, where a massacre occurred, shocking everywhere, corpses are everywhere, rivers of blood flow, and you can also see the heat of blood disappearing in the cold winter, when Zhang Yang and the heroine crawled out of the pile of corpses, it can be said that it is difficult to walk in the sea of corpses, there is not a single line in the whole process, it is extremely shocking, and it is completely the expression of the movie.
When the host of the program group asked Zhang Yang what he was thinking when he was filming this scene, Zhang Yang's answer was very unexpected.
When Zhang Yang saw the picture, what he saw was not himself, but because the plot was so shocked that he cried, when he heard the host's words, he immediately said, "That's not me!" And I almost cried when I said this.
Seeing that the host couldn't answer, Zhang Yang continued, "That's not me!" When I was filming, I didn't live in that body at all, whether it was ideology or living habits, it was completely the person on the screen, when these scenes were filmed, I remember that Liu Xueying and I cried for a long time, and I couldn't return to reality at all, that kind of shock can't be described in words, it can be said that blood is dripping in the bones and soul, I remember that after filming, the director said that it was hell! I still remember that the director said that this picture came from his grandfather! So I used the script to restore the situation in the dream, director! I remember you said that your grandfather was the inspiration for you to write this show, right? ”
When the director heard this, he was even more moved, he and Director Yang did find an extremely savvy and talented actor by mistake, and when he heard Zhang Yang ask, Director Cai nodded and said, "Yes!" When my grandfather was alive, I was in high school, and I listened to him talk about the past every day, how tragic, and this kind of massacre was not uncommon, and these people were just defenseless people, and even the slightest revenge would be slaughtered. Then...... Every year I would go to the martyr's cemetery with my grandfather to sweep the grave, and then my grandfather died in college, I just went to college that year, and I remember going home after attending the funeral, and I had such a nightmare at night, in the dream I was looking for direction in the sea of corpses, extremely terrifying, I couldn't wake up at all, and then I began to try to write a script, and what my grandfather told me, as well as what it sounded and looked, all added to the script, it was not easy in those days! We should really thank the martyrs for their sacrifice in bringing about today's peace. I have the opportunity to be recognized and achieve what I am now, I am really grateful, without my grandfather, I would not be where I am today! ”
After the director finished speaking, he saw him kneeling on the ground solemnly, looking up, and kowtowing three times, and everyone was stunned.
The host reacted quickly and hurriedly arranged for everyone to stand up and bow to express his sincere gratitude to the heroes who sacrificed, which made the scene not embarrassing, and everyone bowed three times.
Zhang Yang looked at Director Cai, thinking that this person was becoming more and more unexpected, only to see him sitting back on the chair, still smiling very happily, listening to him praise himself all the time, and recognized the studio very much, and praised several new actors.
Zhang Yang has always been flattered by the recognition of the Ministry of Culture, and he is very grateful to the government for its support for himself and the studio, but Zhang Yang always feels as if he has known each other for a long time from the leader's concerned words, and he speaks very kindly, treating himself as a nephew, Zhang Yang doesn't know if it's an illusion, it's true that only leaders are like this, after all, he is not an actor who can't act. And the others are still like friends, talking to each other and reciprocating courtesy.
During the recording, every highlight clip and topic caused a very lively discussion, which was not like a crew at all, but like a classroom, with a very academic atmosphere.
At this moment, Zhang Yang saw the old actor with despair in his eyes, as if he saw hope, he was always smiling, he spoke sonorously and powerfully, he also complained about the chaos of this industry, saying that he suffered a lot of injuries, more psychological injuries, but in order to live, he later became numb to the actor industry, and said that it was his honor to know Director Cai, and it was his blessing to have the opportunity to cooperate, and he also thanked Mr. Li Yifu for his meticulous observation of life, which made him deeply taught.
Zhang Yang still remembers that among the dozens of actors present, although some characters only appeared in one or two episodes, they died very miserably, some died in battle, those who died in dissection, those who died of poisoning, those who starved to death, those who were beheaded on the spot, those who were blown up, those who were burned, those who froze to death, and so on, whether it was the family of the first female or the family of the first male, because of the revolution, the family members were cut off by all the brushes, who has to experience such a scene personally, how can they not drip blood from the soul.
I heard a lot of discussions, but Zhang Yang can't get back the feeling of the role at the moment, since the finale, that role has died, and no matter how much performance can only be imitated, Zhang Yang listened to everyone's continuous statement of his filming feelings, and thought to himself No wonder they are so united, it turns out that they are all very grateful people.
The program has been recorded for more than three hours, and there has been no interruption at all, just like a big family meeting, especially warm, and the most surprising thing is that several foreign media have introduced this TV series and signed a cooperation agreement directly on the spot, just wait for the translation to be broadcast directly abroad.
Zhang Yang still remembers that during the interview, some foreign media asked if it would be too bloody and dark, and the director's answer was very direct, if you have experienced this, you feel that these contents are not enough, and what you shoot is just a microcosm of war.
This is a very simple answer, but it makes it impossible to ask anything, even if the war has passed for a hundred years, and perhaps several generations have forgotten it, but this spirit must always be remembered. Throughout history, the outbreak of war has been caused by people's selfish desires, and their own country has been ruined. There is no need for the director to say these words again, if you continue to get to the bottom of it, your IQ will be exposed, which shows that this job is not suitable for this kind of person, and it may be more suitable for people who don't use their brains to be a paparazzi.
After the recording, everyone gathered again for dinner in the hotel, took a group photo, and did publicity. At the dinner, when Zhang Yang and a few people were eating, he was arranged to sit with the leaders of the Ministry of Culture, he took good care of himself, the director was very surprised, and asked if he was a relative of the leader. But Zhang Yang has no one engaged in political work in his family, and he denies it very simply. Sitting with people from government departments, it means that he is the highest status in this group, but in the face of many people, he doesn't dare to ask the leader at will, a few people don't drink, and no one advises him to drink.
After returning to the dormitory, Zhang Yang was puzzled, the leaders of the Ministry of Culture looked familiar and seemed to have seen him somewhere, and indeed seemed to have known him before. was really tired, Zhang Yang thought that it might be the reason for the public's face, and saw Zou Kai go out of the bathroom after washing up, and went into the bathroom by himself.
After Zou Kai came out, he was used to wearing a pair of big pants, and Gan Jun saw the two coming back and chatted with the two all the time.
Although Gan Jun also insists on exercising, his muscle lines are not very obvious, he does not pursue a muscular body, but he also does not want to be very thin, and he also bought nutritional powder to help him gain muscle, so it has a little effect.
"Brother Kai! I really envy your figure! Gan Jun said enviously.
Zou Kai finished emptying the garbage, looked at himself in front of the mirror, and was narcissistic and stinky, "How many times have I said it, as long as you are willing to persevere, anyone will have muscles, there is nothing to envy!" I'm afraid that you can't persevere, you also have a bit of a type, just exercise slowly! ”
After Zou Kai finished speaking, he loaded the trash box on the robot, only to hear Gan Jun continue to ask, "In a month, Brother Yang Yang is going to film again, why don't you take the show?" And still make that much money? ”
"It's boring! I'm definitely going to be a cop! I like to serve the people, but I'm just lucky, I got a good film, and it's like that if I shoot too much, I don't like to be an actor, I like to be myself, don't you know, once this freshness passes, it will be very painful to continue to do the work I don't like, so I have to do what I like! After Zou Kai finished speaking, he took out the book of civil servants, he had already finished reading one, and he could concentrate on reading.
"Yes! I envy you, but sometimes, when I think about filming, I feel that I can't do it, and I feel that it is enough to experience it in the Northeast, I want to be a designer in the future, and when I graduate, I will go to the United States to study, and I have to increase my knowledge! Gan Jun and Zou Kai continued to chat, it was impossible to chat with Zou Kai before, in addition to talking to Zhang Yang, he has always been serious, but after a long time, he played and studied together all day long, and there was no barrier at all, especially after going to his home in Tianjin, he could talk more than before.
Zhang Yang walked out of the bathroom, wrapped in a bath towel, and looked in the mirror, "Shen Xiaojing, what do you think?" ”
Zou Kai looked back at him, very envious of Zhang Yang's body proportions and silhouette, every time he saw Zhang Yang, he sighed to himself.
"Who is Shen Xiaojing!?" Gan Jun asked suspiciously.
"Zou Kai?"
Hearing Zhang Yang's words, Zou Kai came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "He is very smug in his words, he is very meticulous in his work, and he is also very good at taking care of people!" She's twenty-eight, isn't she? ”
"Shen Xiaojing is the accompanying agent of the studio, and she will take the artist out to work and arrange all kinds of things in the future...... Ganjun, do you want to consider learning post-production, how about doing sci-fi blockbusters when the time comes? Zhang Yang suddenly said excitedly.
“…… I don't know, I'll take a closer look when I have time! I'll get the TOEFL score above 90 now! Gan Jun looked at Zhang Yang with envy on his face, in fact, he went to the United States for another purpose, that is, for his beautiful love, and this love is likely to be fulfilled by Brother Yang Yang in front of him.
Since going to the infectious disease hospital, Gan Jun's attitude towards life is very serious, and he is very self-disciplined, especially in his studies, he works very hard, and he also specially enrolled in the TOEFL class, so that he can live a very fulfilling life every day, and these influences mainly come from Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang has such an ability, there is no doubt that everyone likes him, respects him, and will learn from him, and his qualities are uncommon.
After the class performance, there was only the fourth-level exam for English majors, which of course was the same as playing for Zhang Yang. Although Zou Kai's English is not very good, he barely passes, and Gan Jun's grades are very good. After the exam, Zhang Yang found that none of the students in the class failed, but all passed, it seems that everyone is still very dedicated, although they are not very serious about learning foreign languages, but all of them have reached the passing line, and almost all of them have the same scores.
After the exam, followed by the college's performance, which was mainly a report performance by the students of the third-year art department, for the students of the third-year dance class, the performance was already easy to deal with, and there was no pressure at all. Zhang Yang really wants to take this stage opportunity to meet one of Zou Xuan's wishes, her solo dance, Zhang Yang often thinks about it, and Zou Xuan usually practices, which shows that she loves the stage very much, so she specially added her solo dance to contemporary dance, which will not violate the harmony at all. And she only needs to dance the ballet in the middle the whole time, like a princess in a music box, it will be dreamy. This is Zhang Yang's first design idea, and he will put it into action when he thinks of it, and he can always convince everyone.
