Chapter 29: Filming Begins

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, many people are still in the joyful atmosphere of the New Year.

Go to relatives, pay New Year's greetings, collect New Year's money, eat, and get fat......

The Spring Festival Gala was also replayed on TV.

In the sketch "Talking Things", the black soil keeps demolishing the white clouds......

The honest man played by Guo Dongling in "Honest Man" ate and took it at the house of his colleague's big brother, and finally took his colleague's wife to the concert......

Statham in "The Biography of Sister Ma" ...... No, Guo Da pretended to be a parrot and tossed Sister Ma played by Cai Ming back and forth......

"Auspicious Three Treasures" is also this year's program.

Catchy melodies echo in many people's childhood...... There may also be a reason for seaweed advertising.

In this atmosphere, Qin Muchu's movie quietly started filming.

There were no press conferences, no interviews with reporters, not even paparazzi stalking.

The biggest name in the crew is Chen Daomin, followed by Jiang Wu, there is no popular star, and the paparazzi are not stupid.

"Haha, your crew is really ignoring it!"

Jiang Wen smiled and patted Qin Muchu's shoulder, his words full of ridicule.

Qin Muchu shrugged and did not speak.

He didn't care that no one paid attention to the movie, on the contrary, he was happy.

This way he can concentrate on making movies.

The surrounding crew members quietly looked at the two of them, or looked at Jiang Wen with reverence.

Although I had heard it beforehand, this movie has Jiang Wen's background.

But seeing with your own eyes and hearing it is different.

Originally, they saw that the director was a child, and they were still playing drums in their hearts.

thought that this movie was just a second-generation joke, and I couldn't help but have a little perfunctory thoughts.

For this director Qin Muchu, he naturally has some contempt.

But seeing that Jiang Wen and this director have a close relationship, this contempt has dissipated a little.

Don't care if people have the ability or not, they have a relationship!

Angered people, one sentence can really make you get out of this industry!

Thinking of this, the members of the crew looked at Qin Muchu with a little more respect.

This is also the reason why Jiang Wen came to the crew with Qin Muchu today.

Jiang Wen has been filming for many years, so he naturally knows what kind of virtue these old fritters of the mixed crew are.

He didn't come to help Qin Muchu calm the scene, and the filming later in the movie was indispensable for some bullshit trouble.

"Leaving tomorrow?" Qin Muchu asked.

Jiang Wen lit a cigarette and swallowed the clouds and exhaled the fog.

"Let's leave tonight, hurry up and finish filming this movie now, make it well, and shoot the one you wrote as soon as possible!"

Speaking of this, a flash of fire flashed in Jiang Wen's eyes.

He loved the "Let the Bullets Fly for a While" and couldn't wait to shoot it and put it on the big screen.

Of course, this does not mean that he will lower the quality of the current "The Sun Rises" in order to shoot "Let the Bullets Fly for a While" earlier.

He also likes "The Sun Rises", and if he doesn't like it, he won't shoot it.

But men always like the new and hate the old......

"Brother, young master, Teacher Chen is here, the car is almost here......"

Jiang Wu walked over and interrupted the conversation between father and son.

"Let's go, let's go!"

Jiang Wen stepped on the cigarette and pulled Qin Muchu out.

No matter what the reason, Chen Daomin is such a big man who is willing to act in a movie like you, a nobody, this is all human affection, you have to remember.

Besides, people know that the crew's funds are not abundant, so they lowered their salaries as long as 100,000.

This price is equivalent to saying that it is given away for nothing.

A black van came to a slow stop.

Chen Daomin got out of the car, and he was alone.

The car turned around and drove away as soon as he got out of the car.

"Teacher Chen, there is a loss of welcome, there is a loss of welcome!"

Jiang Wen laughed and hugged his fists to meet him.

The tone was teasing, like joking with friends.

"You!"

Chen Daomin smiled and pointed at Jiang Wen with his finger.

The two seem to be really on good terms.

Qin Muchu also greeted Chen Daomin, and several people walked back all the way.

Qin Muchu looked at Jiang Wen and Chen Daomin, who were very chatty, and his eyes were a little strange.

In the past two days, he has found some things that he didn't know before.

Jiang Wen and Chen Daomin had some grievances.

In the movie "The Last Emperor", Pu Yi's role was originally set as Jiang Wen.

But later when the director saw Chen Daomin, he felt that his image was more suitable, so he replaced him with Chen Daomin.

When filming "BJ in New York", Jiang Wen played the male lead, the female protagonist was played by Chen Daomin's wife, and Chen Daomin played the role of the Chinese David who was completely Xihua.

At that time, Chen Daomin filmed a few episodes.

But Jiang Wen thought about it, since it was a collision of Eastern and Western cultures, it was better to directly replace the role of David with a purely foreigner.

As a result, Chen Daoming was replaced, and both of them terminated their contracts with the crew.

It stands to reason that with these grievances, the two should be mortal enemies.

But no.

They are the kind of people who are obsessed with art, and they are not right about things.

And the characters are all direct, what to say.

I can't get used to the things in the circle.

It's okay if you can't see it, but if you see it, you have to take care of it, and you have to scold!

Therefore, they became friends.

……

"Your place is close to BJ, how did you find it?"

Chen Daomin was walking around the set and asked Qin Muchu on the side.

Qin Muchu didn't know all this, he could only say that he was looking for it by his second uncle Jiang Wu.

The so-called set is actually an abandoned factory on the outskirts of BJ.

It's about two hours by car from BJ and half an hour from the nearest town.

Because of the poor management of the factory, the boss ran away with his sister-in-law with money, and heard that he went to Wenzhou and prepared to make a comeback.

The place was left vacant.

Jiang Wu didn't know where to go, and when he knew the news, he decided to shoot here.

Of course, it was smooth to say hello to the relevant departments.

After all, this place is surrounded by wasteland, and birds don't.

The scene of Qin Muchu's movie is very simple.

The main scene is a prison room seven, and there is a square outside the prison for prisoners.

Jiang Wu followed the scene map drawn by Qin Muchu, and within two days of looking for someone, he changed the factory to the appearance that Qin Muchu wanted.

The director's office of the original factory has now been temporarily converted into a crew meeting room.

The conference room is quite large, accommodating more than 20 people.

Nima, no wonder the factory went out of business.

Qin Muchu secretly complained.

A long conference table was set up in the middle of the room.

Qin Muchu sat in the middle, and the actors on the left were all sitting.

The first one is Jiang Wu.

Originally, Jiang Wu wanted Chen Daomin to sit first on the left, but Chen Daomin resolutely refused.

said that his role is only a supporting role, and the male protagonist should sit first.

Jiang Wu had no choice but to sit in the first place according to Chen Daomin's wishes.

Qin Muchu saw it in his eyes, and he also admired the artistic virtues of the older generation of artists more and more.

However, if Chen Daomin doesn't sit in the first place, forget it, the second place will definitely be sitting.

can't really sit in a row according to the role, in that case, you have to go to the door for Chen Daomin.

Besides, if Chen Daomin doesn't sit, that is, the heroine sits.

How dare Yang Mi sit in front of Chen Daomin.

If she really did this, even if Chen Daomin let it, it would be a huge blow to her reputation.

It will leave an impression of arrogance on people in the circle.

A little-known little actor sits on top of the old-timers, which is too unusual.

Yang Mi is not a fool, she is very shrewd.

As soon as I arrived at the crew, when I saw Chen Daomin, I took a bite of Mr. Chen, and asked for an autograph and a group photo.

Proper fans see idols.

Under the persuasion of Qin Muchu and the crew, Chen Daomin finally sat in the second position.

Because in addition to the male and female protagonists, the importance of other roles is almost the same, and there is no distinction between two men and three men.

Yang Mi sat behind Chen Daomin, but she still held a little girl in her arms.

Strictly speaking, the real heroine of the movie - Sun Bijuan.

Comfortable little cousin.

The little girl is very beautiful, with three-dimensional facial features, and looks a bit like Zhang Baizhi on Hong Kong Island, and she is a beautiful embryo.

Qin Muchu looked at this girl and felt a little familiar, but he thought it was because the little girl looked like Zhang Baizhi, so he didn't think much about it.

Yang Mi is followed by Zhang Shi, a Wanwan actor who plays the boss of the prison's "Room No. 7".

I heard that after taking this role, I didn't return to Wanwan during the Chinese New Year, and stayed in BJ to figure out the role.

This also made Qin Muchu once again moved by the dedication of a real actor.

Behind Zhang Shi, there are the remaining four prisoners in Room 7......

On the left sits the actors, and on the right sit the investors and some managers of the crew.

There are only two investors.

The producer is Jiang Wen, but he has a name.

The actual person in charge was another person, surnamed Wang, who was in his forties.

He served as the executive producer, and Jiang Wen had worked with him before and knew the roots.

Originally, Jiang Wen planned to let his younger brother Jiang Wu be the producer, but Jiang Wu played the male lead, so there was no way.

Jiang Wen's words to Wang for the producer were to fully cooperate with Qin Muchu in filming.

Therefore, the producer's rights have been greatly weakened, that is, to help Qin Muchu deal with other chores other than the filming of the crew.

The rest are the assistant director, camera team leader, lighting team leader, and props team leader.

Qin Muchu is a director for the first time, and it is impossible not to be excited.

He pressed the waves in his heart, cleared his throat and said:

"Today is the first meeting of our crew, mainly because everyone knows each other and is familiar with the set."

Qin Muchu turned his head and looked at a middle-aged man on the right:

"Has the crew been arranged to rest in place?"

The man was in charge of the logistics of the crew, and immediately stood up after hearing Qin Muchu's question:

"Director Qin, it's already arranged.

It's in the town next to it, and there aren't many of us in the crew, so I chartered a hotel, where we eat, drink and live. ”

Qin Muchu nodded, beckoning the man to sit down.

"The plan is to read the script around the script in the next two days and talk about their understanding of the role.

The camera and lighting side also arranged things according to the shooting plan in the past two days, no problem. ”

Everyone replied in unison, "No! ”

"Okay, then I announce that "The Gift of Room No. 7" is officially starting filming!"
