Chapter 96: Prop Workshop, Feel Free to Use It
There are still two days left before the time given by Director Wang Yang, and Tang Qin has already moved back to the Beiying Studio Guest House from No. 16 Qianliang Hutong.
This is the closest to Rongguo Mansion, and there is also Sister Bao's sister Lin by his side, he has no other thoughts, he has lived in Qianliang Hutong for a long time, and he always feels that Jia Baoyu's aura on his body will be disconnected.
There was a knock on the door......
He thought it was Tao Huimin and He Qing who were here again, but when he looked back, Director Xie Tieli was standing at the door.
"Whoa—"
There was a sound of chairs moving, and Tang Qin quickly stood up from the desk.
Director Xie sighed in his heart, this look, but he can't play Baoyu Lixue. Jia Baoyu walks briskly, but after all, he is also the son of everyone, and his every move, word and deed must have a background, and the bookish spirit is in this background.
Director Xie didn't say anything else, so he assigned Tang Qin a homework: practicing Chinese painting and calligraphy.
Tang Qin has a foundation, and Director Xie is just to let him find this feeling of immersion in the aroma of books......
"How? Is it done? Director Xie Tieli made a small move, and came to the main building of Beiying, Director Wang Yang happened to come down from the upper floor, and two lonely shadows were reflected on the cement floor.
"It's hard to say." Director Xie Tieli only replied with two words.
To tell the truth, Baoyu Lixue's scene is not something that can be filmed or not, filmed is to portray a Jia Baoyu in a three-dimensional way, and filming is also filming the change of his thinking, and filming is also to shoot poetry and painting.
Well, Director Wang Yang was a little anxious, he was thinking that the first part would be edited and released as soon as possible, he really didn't want to delay, he couldn't afford to delay for a day.
"I'm in Beiying, I have to see our Dream of Red Mansions on the big screen, next year, after the Spring Festival, if this scene is really not good......"
The two have been working together for many years, and he knows that this old man's requirements for art must not be sloppy in every detail.
Director Wang Yang looked at Director Xie Tieli very seriously, he actually took a fancy to an actor from Xiaoxiang Film Production and Acquisition Factory, who is very good at acting as a reader, if he really can't do it, let him shoot a few shots.

"That's unfair to Xiao Tang, and it also hits his confidence, he won't be able to raise his head in the crew, and it won't be conducive to future performances......" Director Xie Tieli didn't know about Tang Qin's arrival in Renyi, "Well, let's take a look, let him find his feelings again, isn't there still two days......"
He looked at the cloudy sky outside, "You say, will it snow this day?" ”
……
The sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and there was no snow on the day of official shooting.
If there are no snowflakes, the props staff will have to hurry up to make snowflakes.
Unlike later generations, snowflakes were made with snow machines, or powder made of sodium polyacrylate.
This powder is not added with water, and when the water is absorbed, it is the snow scene we see.
Sodium polyacrylate after adding water not only looks like snow, but it is also cold to the touch.
It's just that this snow is not the other snow, real snow will melt, but sodium polyacrylate will not.
Tang Qin was dressed in a costume and stood in the center of the courtyard, and "snowflakes" fell from the sky one after another.
"Stop ......"
For some reason, Director Xie stopped again, "Old Zhou, these snowflakes are not good." ”
Isn't this year's snowflakes good? Tang Qin wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh out loud, Director Xie's opposition made him feel the excellence of the older generation of filmmakers.
Director Xie's reason for stopping was that the snowflakes were too thick and did not have the lightness and realism of the snowflakes falling in the sky.
"Director, snowflakes are all made of paper, we have cut the paper to the smallest, it can't be smaller......" Lao Zhou is also an old prop, and it has been more than 20 years since he entered the factory, what kind of props have not been made? Snowflakes are very ordinary to him.
However, it was such an ordinary snowflake that made the director stop the scene.
He also knows that the whole factory knows that now Director Wang Yang is in a hurry, just wait for this scene to be filmed, and the post-production of the film will be released.
Looking for it, it's not that I scolded you and trained you, but everyone in Beiying knows that the old factory director looks at you silently like this, which is more uncomfortable than training and scolding.
"Hurry up ......"
Lao Zhou almost ran back to the props workshop, and quickly mobilized all the colleagues in the workshop to create some snowflakes.
"No...... It's the same as before. ”
Director Xie Tieli was still not satisfied, "Lao Zhou, come and take a look, as soon as the north wind blows, your snowflakes will be blown away, and there will be no one left on Baoyu's face, this will not work......"
Lao Zhou blinked, he looked at Xie Tieli like this, if it was a young director, he could point at his nose on the spot and scold, okay, if you want the snowflakes to have a gentle feeling, then it will be smaller, but the snowflakes have become smaller, and you will blow away if you think a gust of wind......
Aren't you embarrassed?
"Director Xie ......" Lao Zhou's nose and mouth were twisted together, how awkward it was, "I really can't help it......"
"There's no way to think of a way, there are always more ways than difficulties......" Xie Tieli is like this, he doesn't get angry at any time, he looks at you quietly like this, and he sees that your heart is furious, and you have to prepare quickly.
"We have no choice in the props workshop," Lao Zhou began to beg his grandfather to tell his grandmother, there are many actors in the crew, and there are many scenes filmed, perhaps, they know how to make such snowflakes, begging and begging, he begged Lin Moyu in front of the old lady, "Old lady, you have crossed more bridges than I have walked......"
"I don't have anything to do...... the old lady thought of her precious grandson, the Journey to the West crew also has actors from Bayi Factory, and when she came back, she said that there was a capable person in this crew, and when she arrived at the Dream of Red Mansions crew, she finally got the right number, "Qin Zi, tell me." ”
"Well, it's not that hard ......"
The whole crew was looking at him, Director Zhao Yuan frowned, in her impression, the young man was diligent and studious, and he was also steady, but Lao Zhou, this old prop can't solve the problem, you are a young actor who has a way better than him?
If there is a way, how many scenes Director Xie has filmed, he would have already figured out a way for Lao Zhou.
Sure enough, Lao Zhou's face was not half happy, "Xiao Tang, this is not something that is said casually. ”
He came to the Dream of Red Mansions crew, representing the entire props workshop of Beiying, he just asked these old comrades, that is, the old comrades have a way, and the props workshop is not ashamed, but it is not difficult for a young man to say two words, can he and the props workshop still hang on their faces?
"You look like this," Lao Zhou was very unhappy, didn't this show that he was not a prop master, "There is really no bookish spirit." ”
Director Zhao Yuan walked in front of Tang Qin at some point, and she motioned to Tang Qin with her eyes, don't say anything more.
Lao Zhou is also an old man in Beijing Film Studio, if Tang Qin doesn't perform well in the next scene, these old people won't be able to say good things in their mouths......
The strong dragon still doesn't suppress the head snake, she doesn't want Tang Qin to come out and offend the people in a workshop in Beiying.
In the north wind, Tao Huimin stood quietly beside Tang Qin, the young man who painted the sub-shots all night, the person who said that acting is going to enter other people's souls, in his eyes, the drama is bigger than the sky, and he will not joke about filming.
Tang Qin looked at Tao Huimin, who was meeting her two watery gazes, and then looked at Lao Zhou, who was burning his eyebrows, he didn't have to say anything, "The paper roll is flattened, and the water spray stretches ......"
This......?
Lao Zhou suddenly gasped, he stopped talking, and just tilted his head to look at this Jia Baoyu.
This...... It could really be done!
After the paper is stretched, it will become thinner, and after spraying water, it will be semi-wet and not wet, and it will have the fluttering and shaky realism of snowflakes, and it will float down and fall on the head, neck and shoulders, and it is not easy for the wind to blow away......
"Yesterday, Director Xie, I found a way, I'm going to prepare for ......" Lao Zhou shouted, "Director, I have to ask Xiao Tang to go to the props workshop with me......"
"He's an actor, not a prop master," Director Xie was still calm, "It's the protagonist, and there's still a scene to shoot today......"
"Yes, I know, Xiao Tang is the protagonist," Lao Zhou almost came to Tang Qin, "Comrade, you have done us a great favor in the props workshop, and we will ...... in the future."
The north wind blew, no one heard what Lao Zhou said, and Tao Huimin, who was standing beside Tang Qin, vaguely heard a few words, "...... Prop Workshop ...... You can use whatever you want......"
"Everyone go over and help......" Director Xie spoke again, oh, everyone looked at Tang Qin with all kinds of eyes, daring to love this scene, this crew is Tang Qin as a protagonist, the director is willing to do it, but he is not willing to give up Tang Qin.
"Xiao Tang, we make the best snowflakes and let you perform the best Baoyu Lixue." Before leaving, He Qing said something unknowingly.
However, Director Xie immediately answered, "Xiao Tang, you just think about props like this, how can you still have a little bookishness, this scene is not good to act like this...... Well, you go to the dressing room and think about it by yourself......"
