The official actors of the whole play of "Yang God" plus crew members, 8, 900 people.

In order not to run too far, Zhang Yang chartered 3 restaurants, and nearly 100 tables were set up on the spot before all of them were seated.

With such a huge and lively scene, Xuanyu's own staff members were all at ease.

The actor who has not been in contact with Zhang Yang is a little surprised.

Many actors have the impression that just filming a TV series, dozens or hundreds of people are already a very large crew, and the scale of Zhang Yang's close to 1,000 people is more than the creative team of many special effects blockbusters, which is simply terrifying.

The two actors on Hong Kong Island, Ren Hua and Zheng Jian, whispered in their hometown dialect.

Ren Hua held a wine glass and exclaimed: "I have heard that the mainland's Zhang Yang director, although he is young, he is very big at everything, and he doesn't care about the cost of filming. ”

"I've heard of it too." Zheng Jian put down his fast son and said in a low voice: "Many friends told me that Director Zhang has a theory of filming, called the blockbuster theory, which is about shooting a drama, everything is done in the best and biggest direction, and the film produced is not much worse."

I used to be a joke, but today I realized that what I said was true. ”

"Blockbuster theory?" Ren Hua took a sip of wine and said, "I've heard that many directors agree with this theory. ”

"Really? But I haven't heard much about it in public, since I agree, why don't I see anyone follow Director Zhang's words? ”

Zheng Jian was puzzled.

"How?"

Putting down the wine glass, Ren Hua shrugged and said: "Our film industry on Hong Kong Island has declined a lot, who dares to make it so big?" Although some people agree with this theory, there are a lot of dragon coins behind it, and it is not so easy to shoot. ”

"According to Director Zhang's method, even if I put all my net worth into filming for decades, I can't make much waves, how many directors in our country dare to follow? How many film and television companies dare to get involved? ”

"Makes sense." Zheng Jian said: "The big companies at the top have the strength to dare to play like this." In this way, Xuanyu seems to be very large-scale? ”

Because of personal reasons, he has rarely filmed in recent years, which is equivalent to a semi-retired state, and he does not have a clear understanding of the film and television industry, especially the film and television industry in the mainland.

That is, after the audition, I only inquired a little about the news of Xuanyu.

"Very big!"

Ren Hua knew much better than him. "Don't look at the short time of establishment, the income is terrifyingly high, the tens of billions of dollars, it is the old level of the film and television industry."

"That's amazing."

Zheng Jian sighed.

When he was young, he was also a very hot existence.

The Crazy Boy series of movies influenced a generation, and later knew that the influence was not good, so he stopped making such movies and began to shoot fantasy-style movies instead.

At that time, some people said that all the best special effects on Hong Kong Island were given to Zheng Jian, which was also a true portrayal of him during that period.

However, he was later hidden by the agency.

After the new era, there is almost no news about him.

Someone once saw him filming a low-budget suspense drama on Hong Kong Island, but there was no news later.

It was precisely because he wanted to fight again that he came to Xuanyu to audition.

As soon as he saw him, Zhang Yang remembered the classic images of Xuantianzong and Hua Yingxing, and because of this, in the end, among several candidates, he decided to let him play the dream god machine.

Zheng Jian's acting skills are at least there.

For a role like Oneiroi, he can handle it well, and it's not a problem at all.

"Who's to say it isn't? Young and promising, powerful, and rich, the pride of the film and television industry! Ren Hua patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't say it, let's go to the bar first, as actors, we always have to have a toast with the director." ”

The two chatted, and out of the corner of Ren Hua's eyes, he saw that an actor had gone over to toast, and the two of them also walked to Zhang Yang with wine glasses.

"Director Zhang, I wish you a glass, I wish "Yang God" Changhong."

Ren Hua came over with a wine glass, and Zheng Jian followed him and said with a smile: "Thank you Director Zhang for giving me this opportunity." ”

Zhang Yang was a little dizzy.

He stood up, raised the wine glass on the table and smiled at Zheng Jian: "Teacher Zheng, I have also watched your play, you rely on your strength, not me to give you a chance." ”

Turning his head and saying to Ren Hua, "Thank you, Mr. Ren, for his good words." ”

At the start-up banquet, even if the employees of Xuanyu did not come to toast him.

Actors and special effects companies will come.

Even if one person took a sip, Zhang Yang poured a lot.

At this time, there was already a drunken look on his face.

"I don't drink too much wine, everyone can just say it, eat and drink well tonight, I'm really a little too strong to drink, forgive me."

With that, he raised his glass and took a sip gently.

"Feel free."

Ren Hua and Zheng Jian also expressed their understanding, but the two took a big sip.

Seeing that the two of them drank the wine in the glass, Zhang Yang said helplessly: "The two of you are too polite, don't say anything superfluous, happy cooperation." ”

"It's a pleasure to work with."

After saying that, the two didn't say anything more, and gave up their place to the other people who came to toast.

There was a large crowd behind them.

Zhang Yang had a headache when he saw it.

Thinking that drinking too much would affect tomorrow's shooting, Zhang Yang simply declined all toasts, picked up the wine glass and walked to the front of the banquet, holding a microphone and saying loudly: "Everyone, let's drink this cup together, and I wish the filming of "Yang God" a smooth one." ”

As the words fell, he drank the rest of the wine from his glass.

Everyone in the audience also toasted together.

"Okay, after drinking this cup, everyone should stop respecting me, there are too many people, I can't drink it."

"Hahaha~"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Waiting for the laughter to stop, Zhang Yang put down the cup and said loudly: "Since we are all standing here, I have a few words I want to say to you."

There are four rules for filming as a person, and no one is allowed to break it.

First, shoot in strict accordance with the script, no one is allowed to steal the scene or change the scene!

Second, some people, especially actresses, don't be delusional about relationships and ambiguity, and the crew will resolutely put an end to it!

Third, during the filming, everyone is prohibited from leaving their posts without permission!

Fourth, I will not tolerate anyone who affects the shooting.

The reason why I set these four rules is to be responsible for the scenes I shoot, and everything is to make better works.

I know some people may not understand, but if you don't understand it, you don't understand it, and these rules must not be broken.

Ugly words are ahead, don't blame me when the time comes. ”

There was silence for a while.

Many actors who worked with Zhang Yang for the first time remembered why the crew of several dramas of Xuanyu was so big, but there was very little negative news.

There are often unspoken rules in the film and television industry, or all kinds of lace news, and gossip that is not good for the show.

What kind of late-night actress stays in the director's room until midnight, and the hero and heroine in the play fall in love because of the play......

Some are deliberately hyped, while others are accidentally exposed.

However, since Zhang Yang's debut, there has been no such news in any drama, and it is precisely because of his strict crew management system.

Seeing that everyone was a little serious, Zhang Yang thought about it and pretended to be relaxed: "Of course, tonight doesn't count, everyone eats and drinks well, but don't affect tomorrow's shooting, start up!" ”

"It's good to go!"

Huang Yuepeng immediately yelled.

Other employees of Xuanyu were also accustomed to the flamboyant shooting rules, and they also yelled.

Seeing this, the others thought that it made sense, so they also yelled loudly.

"It's good to go!"

"It's good to go!"

......

That night, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

The kick-off banquet lasted until 9 p.m.

Following.

Inside the filming location.

The hundreds of people in the crew of "Yang God" all gathered in the 'Wuwenhou' mansion.

Today is the first scene, and it is of great significance.

Even the actors who didn't have a shooting assignment were all present.

Zhang Yang stood in the director's studio, watching the staff in the venue continue to be busy and decorating the venue.

Seeing that he had to arrange it for a while, he called Hong Yi.

"How? Today's first scene, let you take the lead, can you win it? ”

Hong Yi held the script in his hand and looked a little uneasy.

He said in a nervous tone: "Director Zhang, I heard that many crews deliberately pick the simplest scene in the first scene, in order to pass the test once and get off to a good start, if I don't play well later, you won't be angry, right?" ”

Hong Yi was very nervous.

It was the first time to film, and at the start-up banquet last night, Zhang Yang also set such strict rules, which made him a little afraid.

Although he came to act in dramas or perform on stage at school, it was his first time filming.

In order not to make any mistakes.

When he got up in the morning, he was reading the script with him, experiencing the psychology of the characters and reciting the lines.

"What? Do you mean that you are afraid of not playing well? ”

Zhang Yang glanced at him.

"It's not that I'm afraid, it's my first time shooting...... Not very adaptable. ”

Hong Yi whispered.

"What's wrong with it?"

Zhang Yang saw at a glance what he thought, patted him on the shoulder and encouraged: "If you can win the role, it means that your basic skills must be passed, just play normally, and the first scene is not difficult." ”

In order to get off to a good start.

Zhang Yang studied for a while before choosing the easiest section as the opening scene of the shooting.

This paragraph is the first chapter of the original book.

Hong Yi is in the Wuwen Hou Mansion, reading in his room.

There was only Hong Yi and a book in the whole process, a few lines of self-talk, and a little psychological reaction.

And there is no need to show any particularly difficult psychological state, as long as the actor reads a book during filming, and his face shows an expression of understanding, almost a person can perform.

What's more, he had already secretly used the props of 'small improvement in the acting skills of the designated actors' for Hong Yi at the start-up banquet last night.

At this time, Hongyi, in terms of performance, basically crushed the vast majority of the flow of fresh meat.

Those scenes that can be filmed by the traffic fresh meat, it doesn't make sense that Hong Yi can't do it?

Hong Yi is only the first time now, and he is a little nervous.

Zhang Yang affirmed: "Your level is not bad, there is absolutely no problem with playing seriously, even if you don't shoot well, I won't blame you." ”

"You don't blame me."

Hearing him say this, Hong Yi's heart relaxed a lot.

"Although I won't blame you, but you have to work hard yourself, with your own ability, you can definitely finish the filming smoothly, how did you read the script?"

Seeing that he was holding the script in his hand, Zhang Yang asked.

Hong Yi raised the script in Yang's hand and replied: "The lines have almost been memorized, how to act, I also have ideas in my heart." ”

"That's good."

At this time, Huang Yuepeng walked over.

"Director Zhang, the venue will be set up immediately, the shooting equipment is also being prepared, and the actors are going to start styling and makeup, you see?"

"Then take him with you."

Zhang Yang waved his hand.

Huang Yuepeng immediately took Hong Yi to the makeup team and started to do makeup.

Zhang Yang walked to the venue and took a look.

At this point, the room was completely furnished.

Although it is the Hou Mansion, Hong Yi in this scene is still in a low status stage.

So in this room, all kinds of things are not the best, and all the furniture is extremely plain.

There was only a bed, a chair, a table and a desk in front of the windowsill.

There is a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the desk, and a few books and a candlestick stacked next to it.

There was nothing else in the room.

From these arrangements, the audience can see how depressed the actor is at this time.

In addition to the furnishings in the room.

The crew is still preparing filming equipment.

The lights, cameras, and tracks are all in place.

There is also a track outside the window facing the desk in the room.

At that time, there will be another camera from this angle to shoot the facial expression on the face of the male protagonist as he reads the book.

Meanwhile.

Several red machines, resembling enlarged hair dryers, are being carried around the house.

This is a snow gun.

Snow is used in this first scene.

However, although the weather here is cold, there is no snow.

This kind of machine has to be used to make snowflakes.

Snowflakes are also real snowflakes, not foam, plastic.

Otherwise, it is very troublesome to clean up the back.

Zhang Yang made a round.

Soon, all the scenes for the first scene were arranged.

At the same time, Hong Yi also made a good appearance and sat at the desk.

Seeing this, Zhang Yang walked to the director's studio, where a monitor was placed, and there was a special stool behind the monitor.

He sat on a stool and looked around the field.

All staff at the venue are in place.

He looked down at the monitor again.

At this time, the monitor is displaying a high-definition image of the exterior of the house taken by the camera.

"That's it!"

After confirming that all preparations were in place, Zhang Yang raised his head and held the horn to his mouth.

"All departments ready!"

He raised one hand in the air.

"Let's go!"

The palm of the hand fell suddenly!

The first scene officially begins.

......

"The sky sees itself as the people, and the sky listens to the people as ....."

The sound of reading aloud came, the window of the study opened, and the camera advanced towards the window on the track from far and near, photographing the image of Hong Yi played by Hong Yi.

At this time, he was holding a book in his hand, reading constantly, preparing to deal with the scientific examination, figuring out the scriptures, and his face still had a bit of the intoxication of a reader reading books.

"Whether or not you can correct the name of the dead mother depends on the Enke in the spring and the entrance examination in the fall. First in the examination, then in the jinshi, the title of the gold list, and the three generations of ..... imperial court will issue a decree to canonize my mother as a wife. The mother's grave can be brought into the ancestral grave of the Hong family, and the spiritual seat can also be enshrined in the ancestral hall. ”

After reading two more sentences, Hong Yi whispered softly.

"If I am a jinshi, if I am a jinshi, the court will crown my mother as a wife. When the time comes, I don't know what kind of expression Mrs. Zhao has in the main room? ”

"Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao..."

There were a few wisps of hatred in his eyes, and his expression changed from the intoxication he had when he started reading to a hint of hatred.

Thinking of his mother's affairs, he was such a teenager, and he was inevitably resentful.

Hong Yi's performance is in place.

His teeth were slightly gritted and his brow furrowed slightly.

The action was not big, but Zhang Yang could see his hatred.

"Okay, I don't want to do this anymore, it's even more important to read and move."

Shaking his head, Hong Yi continued to pick up another book.

On the cover of the book is written "Notes on the Grass Hall" - Li Yan has a few big characters.

"I'm almost ready for the exam after the beginning of spring, but I still have to figure it out."

"Although this Caotang note is full of gods, monsters, foxes, ghosts, talented and beautiful women, fairies, and female foxes, in fact, each article is a fable, worthy of being the prime minister of the previous dynasty and the founder of the Li school."

"Although Li Yan has become an ancient man now, most of the officials born in the imperial court are his protégés, and the chief examiner who presided over the examination this time must also be a member of his Li school.

If you think about the allegorical ideas expressed by Li Yan with the help of foxes and ghosts, and cater to the tastes of other people, you will definitely be able to go to high school. ”

"Those scholars of the sect, even if they are excellent, only know how to read to death, but they don't know that the practice of human feelings is the article, even if your paper is brilliant, and it is out of tune with the examiner's school, it will definitely brush you down."

Looking at this book and reading a story, Hong Yi's eyes lit up, and his expression changed again.

From resentment to interest.

He said to himself, "There is still such a story?

In order to save her mother-in-law, the daughter-in-law died herself, and the villagers comforted her mother-in-law, saying that her daughter-in-law's filial piety was commendable and she was named the emperor of the city.

After listening to this story, the scholar thought that although the daughter-in-law was filial piety, the words of the gods were the words of the mountain village.

Li Yan thinks that his daughter-in-law is a god, because the sage book has 'Heaven sees itself and the people see it, and God listens to itself and the people listen', that is to say, the people think that the daughter-in-law becomes a god, then the daughter-in-law becomes a god.

Li Yan believes that in fact, the gods in the world are just the embodiment of people's thoughts, and the reason why the gods and Buddhas in the temple can repeatedly appear is because they have received people's incense offerings and beliefs.

Originally, there was no god in this world, but there were many people who believed in it, and people's thoughts gathered, so gods and Buddhas were born. ”

"It's funny." Hong Yi muttered to himself: "A good providence is the will of the people, it turns out that there is such an explanation." ”

"There are no gods and Buddhas, but they are incarnated by people's thoughts and beliefs? What is said in the book, 'Heaven sees itself and the people see, Heaven listens to itself, and Heaven listens to its own people's will', and there is such an explanation? Integrity and wisdom as God? Yin god and yang god? ”
