Chapter 778: High-level scene-stealing
"It's okay to go back, I only have one request."
"You say."
"Stay away from that idol!" Gu Shengze was solemn.
"No problem." He Chenxi happily agreed.
then asked the crew for half a day off and packed the man on the plane.
Sending Gu Shengze away, He Chenxi rushed to the crew non-stop, she is not a big name in Hollywood, but there are no big names to play, and there are many people with higher qualifications than her in the crew, and she is also afraid of bringing any bad influence to Director Liu, so she has always been conscientious.
"He Chenxi, it's good to be back, the next scene is yours, you get the script right first." The assistant director's eyes were the sharpest, and he saw her as soon as he entered the door, and hurriedly transferred the stylist and makeup artist over, and asked them to quickly put on He Chenxi's good outfit.
"Okay."
He Chenxi took advantage of the fact that he hadn't put on his makeup yet, so he quickly took a big sip of water, took the script, and read it at a glance.
"Let's go together!"
The staff put their hands up and down, gave him her clothes, and the sound of reading lines came from the filming location, He Chenxi turned his eyes and saw that it was the female No. 2 Austin, and this scene was her rivalry with the male third.
Austin is a Chinese-American, and although he has a completely Asian face, he actually grew up in the United States ABC, and his style is all Western.
But unfortunately, although this film was shot in Hollywood and has many Hollywood stars involved, its largest market is actually for the mainland, a country with a population of more than one billion.
So the way it is interpreted is a bit exaggerated, and the assistant director and director have said this problem more than three or four times, but this innate habit can't be changed for a while, so Austin's plays often have to be ng many times to meet one of them.
But He Chenxi is different, she and the director, assistant director and producer, the core of the vote, are all from the same place, and the acting skills are not bad, relatively speaking, it is enough to make up for two occasional mistakes.
Therefore, Austin is of course very dissatisfied in her heart, she doesn't think that what she has done is not good enough, and she will not be as good as He Chenxi.
"Okay, the props team will remove all the sets, and hurry up to make up for the next scene, here He Chenxi is ready for the next scene."
"Okay."
He Chenxi heard the assistant director call her name and responded loudly.
In this scene, He Chenxi was wearing a suit of plate armor and led a horse to meet the second male in the desert, at this time the second male was unconscious, and she wanted to find a doctor for treatment with him and the pack.
Because the second male has been in a coma in this scene, Gu Shengze doesn't have many lines, just a few words of self-talk, and He Chenxi has already memorized them all when he is putting on makeup.
"Doctor, how is this person's injuries? Can it still be saved? ”
Because the background is in ancient times, so the speech is in the way of classical Chinese or semi-vernacular, because of this, Austin, a Chinese who grew up abroad, has suffered a lot, obviously she knows every word, but her tongue can't be straightened, seeing He Chenxi's calm expression, easily speaking, lines, her heart is unbalanced.
Austin deliberately walked up to the staff at the scene and suddenly let out a scream.
"What's going on?"
The staff who were holding the microphone to collect the sound were not frightened, but the director and the assistant director, who were attentively observing the picture on the screen, were taken aback.
"I'm sorry, something ran past my feet just now, I thought it was a mouse, and then I realized that I was wrong."
Austin looked apologetic.
"What a fuss."
Liu Dadao muttered and turned his attention back to the screen.
"One more remake!"
This film is going to be exhibited, so there can be no dubbing, live radio is very important, Austin's high-decibel scream just now, He Chenxi's lines were overshadowed, so it had to be reshot.
"Doctor, did he wake up just now? I see what he seems to have said? ”
"It's just a dream talk when you're unconscious."
The person who plays the doctor is also an old drama bone, touching his beard, his eyes are half-squinted, and he plays a barefoot doctor who walks the rivers and lakes with a chattering spirit, which is very vivid.
"Click!"
The good lines that the two of them competed for, and there was no trace of error, and Director Liu suddenly shouted a pause, making everyone look confused.
"What's going on with that dark shadow on the screen?"
As soon as he said this, the staff found that there were two black shadows that did not know what was on the well.
"What about the gaffer? Is the gaffer dead? What the hell is that? How is it lighted? ”
The second shooting didn't go well, and Director Liu's temper came up and shouted at the lighting master upstairs.
"I don't know what's going on, the bracket suddenly broke one."
The lighting master on the second floor was also very aggrieved, and after checking for a long time, he found that he didn't know when the lamp bracket fell, so the shadow on the set was formed, but before the start of construction, he obviously checked it up and down, and the screws were screwed well, so why did it suddenly loosen at this time.
"Grandma's, I don't believe in evil, keep going, everyone is in place."
"He Chenxi, you go on." Liu Dadao took the loudspeaker and started to shout, but he simply didn't look at the small screen, walked back and forth with his waist crossed, and his eyes stared at the boss to patrol all corners.
"Then I'll trouble you, doctor."
Perfect call-up.
After He Chenxi finished the last line, this scene passed, and Director Liu nodded with satisfaction.
The crew began to nervously start setting up the scene for the next scene again, and no one noticed that Austin slipped quietly into the set from backstage, and no one noticed when she was leaving.
But He Chenxi knew very well that the place where he was standing just now was the brightest place in the audience, and the angle was just right to see Austin go up to the second floor, and then Liu Dadao shouted a pause, and when she saw the two shadows on the set, she naturally knew everything.
"Am I being targeted? He even gave me a little stumbling block. ”
Back in the dressing room, He Chenxi took off the heavy makeup on her face, took out the cosmetics in her bag, and put on light makeup.
But who is the ghost, she came to the set again, or the role of the female No. 2 Austin, she hid in the corner and watched when the other party was loudly reprimanded by Liu Dadao for reciting the wrong lines or stumbling over them, the anger flashed in her eyes, and she suddenly understood why the other party would use such a small means against herself.
"It's a mistake to be too good."
He Chenxi laughed at himself and turned to leave.
As for what Austin did to him today, he believes that there will definitely be a lot more in the future.
When she went to the crew the next day, she thought about it for a night and decided to go to the director to spread out the matter, so as not to go wrong in the future and carry the black pot herself.
"Is Director Liu free today? Please have a meal. ”
"Don't, if there's something, you better just say it."
Liu Qingfeng has long known what kind of character He Chenxi is, and he will go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and he will just invite him to dinner, so there will be something wrong.
"Hey, director, you're really my confidant, I haven't opened my mouth yet, you know."
He Chenxi slapped two sycophants lightly, and then pulled the director to a place where there were few people and said his thoughts one by one.
"You're saying Austin deliberately targeted you? Can't it, she's just a female He Chenxi, can you still be bullied by her as a female number one? Liu Dada's eyes flashed, and he didn't answer positively.
He Chenxi looked at his face suspiciously: "I said director, you won't know it a long time ago, right?" ”
"Ahem, cough, cough......" Liu Dadao suddenly coughed violently, as if he was choked by his own saliva, and his face was flushed.
"Knowing is knowing......" originally wanted to deny it, but as soon as he saw He Chenxi's posture of asking the guilt and breaking the casserole to the end, he knew that it was not so easy to get by, so he had to compromise.
"Yes, I know, but I can't help it, you know, although I am a director, but I have no say in choosing this part except for you, after all, I can only set a heroine, and then because I insist on using Asian faces, Hollywood doesn't agree, so I can't stuff a Chinese-American in."
"Then I'll eat for nothing?" He Chenxi felt unfair for herself: "You also said that he is just a female number two, and my female number one is what is it to be ridden on her head?" Even if you pierce the sky, you can't say this truth. ”
Director Liu was a little helpless: "I know that Austin has a deliberate element in yesterday's incident, but in order for this movie to be filmed smoothly, why don't you just endure this breath first, and when the trial is successfully passed, I will compensate you for the crime?" ”
"Look at what you said, you are Director Liu, how dare I make you make amends." He Chenxi knew that he couldn't please him, so he had no choice but to behave in front of the director, but he still wanted to be in Director Liu's play in the future, at this time, he offended people ruthlessly, and it was not good for her to go in the future.
"Okay, okay, who made America a capitalist society."
He Chenxi probably also understood, Hollywood really can't be blamed for this, it is estimated that Austin is a woman with a lot of background, and she must have something to do with the father of the gold behind her, Director Liu is just a director with limited power, and she is not good at making him in a dilemma.
"I want to go back to China, the United States is not fun at all."
Having said that, but it was difficult to calm down in his heart, He Chenxi still called Gu Shengze to complain when he returned to the hotel at night.
"Is there anything upset?"
Gu Shengze asked on the other end of the phone.
"No, it's just that I'm not used to eating."
He Chenxi told a little lie and didn't tell him the reason why he was unhappy, the entertainment industry is normal like this, there is no need to worry about the other party, Gu Shengze didn't agree with him taking this movie, if he knew that he was wronged here, he might make some trivial trouble.
As Director Liu Da said, in order for this film to be released smoothly, she put up with this breath for the time being.
