Chapter 119: You Want to Learn to Cook Too?
Guan Hu said that the next day was just to test Ji Yun's mental state.
Not to mention the next day, but if it can be filmed this week, it will burn high incense.
This mountain road is two people wide, and it is also full of potholes, and the sophisticated equipment can only be moved by manpower.
Fortunately, the altitude is only more than 1,900 meters, otherwise the altitude sickness will come up, and the machine will not be able to turn on for a month.
Guan Hu has a flexible brain, and his crew is not manpowered, so he invited some villagers.
In addition to group performances, you can also help move some equipment, killing two birds with one stone.
After three days of busy work, the entire crew was finally assembled.
Guan Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the actors full of pits, he said aloud: "Turn on!" β
......
The box office of this film will not be too good, this is a fact that Ji Yun already knew before the start.
The story is adapted from "Child's Play and Killing", which tells the story of a village called Changshou Town in the mountains, since the Qing Dynasty, there are more than 18 elderly people over 100 years old in Changshou Town.
If there were no cattle to bear fruit, there would probably continue to be a 19th, 20th long-lived old man in this stockade.
But the protagonist Niu is sturdy, and it is the unstable factor in the village that makes this peaceful-looking village full of waves.
Under their totality, the ox finally died.
This story is not warm, and even a little depressing, a protagonist with flaws, and a group of villagers who open their mouths and close their mouths to be polite, all of which make the film present a gray atmosphere.
Guan Hu was attracted to the story, not for the box office.
Although there will be compromises to the market in terms of presentation, this is an out-and-out authorial film.
For more than a decade after that, the directing industry has been shrouded in a chain of contempt.
Those who make movies look down on those who make TV series, those who make TV series look down on those who make online dramas, and those who make online dramas look down on those who make variety shows.
There is also a chain of contempt in the film industry.
Those who make auteur films look down on professional directors, and those who make literary films look down on those who make commercial films.
But the truth is that professional directors who direct commercial films always make a lot of money.
Yu Nan is an actor whose strength is greater than his fame.
It was with the author's movie "Fury" that she rose to prominence.
In this film, she appeared completely naked, so when she heard that there was a bed scene in killing, she didn't have any psychological burden.
Guan Hu didn't.
Ji Yun has...
To be honest, if the person under him was Yu Nan, he wouldn't be so awkward, but under him was a camera brother with a beard.
"Come on! Don't pity me! β
The cameraman grinned, revealing his mouth full of yellow teeth, and sent a fencing application to Ji Yun.
Ji Yun didn't look at it, turned around and asked Guan Hu, but met his encouraging eyes.
Yes, what kind of director there is, what kind of cinematographer there is.
"Good! actionοΌ β
Ji Yun grimaced, and rudely raised his hands with the camera brother.
This plot is about the death of an old man in Changshou Village, and the villagers buried him in the water, and let the widow Ma played by Yu Nan accompany the burial, but in the process of the water burial, Niu Jieshi suddenly appeared, rescued her from the river, and carried her to her home.
Niu Jiezhuang was not a good man, and he saved the horse widow only to covet her beauty.
Therefore, Ji Yun's interpretation in this paragraph is not gentle.
"Cards!"
Guan Hu was a little dissatisfied, "Can you be happier!" β
The camera brother under him was not idle, "Yes, you are happier." β
Ji Yun's face fell, as uncomfortable as eating a fly.
There was a little more prodigal in the performance again, and this scene really added a lot of color.
Stumbling, this period is finally over.
Afterwards, a cigarette, Ji Yun sighed a little.
It's still good to be sexual, everyone is a real knife and a real gun, and it's become a hard hit for me...
The cameraman was blessed, and it was Yu Nan's turn to shoot this scene.
Ji Yun was not idle, and the scene of being slapped had to let him come.
"Smack!"
With a slap on the face, there was an extra red mark on Ji Yun's face.
"Cards!"
Guan Hu stopped in time, "Yu Nan, your expression is wrong, you have to be more shocked and afraid." β
"Okay." Yu Nan nodded.
"Smack!"
"Cards! Closing the action! β
"Smack!"
"Don't get stuck, I think she wants revenge!"
......
The first day of filming was not very smooth, but it was also within Guan Hu's acceptance.
The drama between the two was completed on time after stumbling, but when it came to the group drama stage, it was stuck.
These villagers are all extras, and they don't have any background in acting.
As soon as the camera was on, the movements of the whole person began to stiffen, making the picture very discordant.
Guan Hu divided the villagers into several groups, and then used the group performance he brought to serve as the squad leader, and the big and small ones completed today's shooting task before dark.
Stirring the noodle soup, Yu Nan felt a little tasteless.
The first day of filming allowed her to see some clues, and this film is estimated to have no box office.
Guan Hu did not portray the village as a contradictory utopia, but put the cold-blooded and sturdy ruthlessness of the villagers in front of the audience.
She has made more than ten movies since her debut, and she thinks she has some ability, so she took on this role that others don't want to play.
But after watching it today, the scale of this film is too large, and it really does not meet the public's taste.
After entering this industry, how can anyone not want to be popular.
There may be a weak temperament, but once the opportunity is in front of them, who will abandon them?
Seeing that those actors whose acting skills are not as good as her are becoming popular, she is also anxious!
"What's wrong? Can't swallow it? β
Ma Jingwu, who plays the village head, said with a smile.
Ma Jingwu is a professor in Nortel's acting department, and even Zhang Jiayi and Zhang Zijian are his students, and he always cares about the actors who come out of his school.
Yu Nan didn't dare to express the concerns in his heart, so he could only nod awkwardly.
Pinching the cake in his hand, "It's a little light." β
Ma Jingwu smiled and pointed to Ji Yun beside him, "Don't you see that his food is quite fragrant?" β
Yu Nan raised his eyes and saw that Ji Yun seemed to be a starving ghost, chewing on the dough cake in a big gulp.
Ma Jingwu sighed, he is old and refined, how can he not know what Yu Nan thinks in his heart.
Today's performance is a little out of shape, which is obvious to everyone.
Maybe she was a little vindictive, but Ma Jingwu could see that she had a hidden strength in her heart.
The strength of aggrieved.
"Girl, do you know the story of King Chuzhuang?"
Yu Nan put down the bowl and was stunned for a moment, "I don't know." β
"Say, this King of Chuzhuang has just taken office and is addicted to wine, and he doesn't care about state affairs. But in the end, he became one of the Spring and Autumn Five Tyrants, do you know why? β
He opened his mouth like this, and the actors of the entire crew stopped moving.
Teacher Ma specified that he was opening a small stove.
"Look at this noodle soup, it is boiled out little by little, and when the fire is big, it will be mushy."
Yu Nan suddenly understood, nodded at Ma Jingwu, and said ashamedly: "I understand." β
And the crowd understood.
It can be made into soup only by warm fire, and it is easy to paste when it is high heat.
No hint at anyone, that's it......
"Teacher Ma, you can also point me out." Ji Yun quietly came over.
Ma Jingwu's eyelids rolled, "You also want to learn to cook?" β
