Chapter 265: The crew reports for duty

"Viagra, hello!"

"Yo, Mr. Li Tang, don't be joking. Xiao Zhou, you can call me Xiao Zhou. ”

Li Tang came to report to the crew of "Hero", and the docking was Zhou Wei, the assistant of Director Zhang, who had dealt with him last time.

originally thought that he would go directly to Hengdian to meet the crew, but he was arranged at the Traders Hotel in Jinhua. 4 stars, considered the best hotel in the area. It is said that Hengdian is still making the set, and Li Tang is arranged here for the need for secrecy.

Li Tang originally wanted to meet Liang Chaowei, Zhang Yanyu, including Xiao Zhang, but after they traveled to the Great Northwest, Jiuzhaigou and Guilin, they were finished, and even Li Lian, who played opposite him, could not come to the crew until ten days later.

His task now is to master the tricks and get ready. The crew also rented a venue at the Jinhua Gymnasium, not far from the Traders Hotel, where they usually train.

"I cried when I played the director today."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. Today, Pai Anxin knelt in front of her mother and begged her to take out the money to save Yang Rui, which went very smoothly, and she acted in one breath. After the performance, I didn't hear the director shout to stop or over, I was wondering, and guess what? ”

"What's wrong?"

"As a result, I saw Director Ding come over with tears in his eyes, pat me on the shoulder and say that I acted well!" Chubby said proudly on the phone.

"Well, it's pretty impressive!"

Li Tang lay on the bed and sighed, and then asked, "By the way, how is the acne on your face, has it gone away?" ”

"Tsk, why don't you mention which pot you want, I'm worried. The acne you sent me last time didn't work, so it still works! ”

"Then you usually pay attention to your diet, I guess it may be that you are not accustomed to the soil and water."

"It doesn't make sense, I was fine when I experienced life before, but I can't do it when I film, and I often can't sleep at night now, and my dreams are all about filming during the day, maybe it's too much pressure."

"Didn't you just say that you played the director crying, it should be okay, how can there be pressure?"

"Oh, you don't know, I have to cry all day now, I can't cry if I can't. Last time I filmed the scene at the train station, there were too many people on the scene, and I couldn't get into the mood at all, so I secretly used eye drops, and I was scolded by Director Ding......"

Saying that, Xiaopang said coquettishly on the phone: "Teacher Li, when are you free to come and see me, maybe there is still a disharmony between yin and yang." ”

Xiaopang is really greasy, and this kind of tiger and wolf can be spoken. You are still not in harmony with yin and yang, so I am not in harmony with yin and yang!

"You don't know what I'm doing now, I just reported to the crew today, and I definitely can't leave!"

"Didn't you say there was just one fight?"

"That's right, there is only one fight scene and two lines, but how to shoot it depends on the director, and Director Zhang deliberately took care of me to set aside a one-month schedule, which will definitely not be simple."

"That'...... Then you have time to visit the class in the future, or I will not be able to return to the capital until New Year's Day. ”

The filming cycle of "Jade Guanyin" is as long as half a year, and most of the scenes are filmed in Yunnan, according to the shooting plan, at least until New Year's Day and before the Spring Festival, it can be transferred to the capital.

Listening to the chubby and pitiful voice on the phone, Li Tang could imagine what kind of expression she had at this time, and muttered: "Okay, if the shooting here goes well, I'll come over to visit the class." If it doesn't go well...... When the time comes, if you ask the crew of "Condor Shooting" for leave, you will always be able to squeeze out time. ”

"Really? Teacher Li, you are so good! Uh-huh—"

Chubby was suddenly very excited, and he gave him a heavy kiss on the phone.

Li Tang couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, that's it, you also rest early, you have to film tomorrow." ”

"Well, bye-bye!"

Chubby is in a good mood and is expected to be able to sleep well tonight.

After hanging up the phone, Li Tang didn't feel sleepy because he squinted for a while in the afternoon. I wanted to make a phone call to Jiang Qinqin, but I just took her name out of the address book, so I thought about it.

This woman had been slipping him around like fishing some time ago, and she couldn't see it. He couldn't get too upright, so he simply took advantage of this time to dry for a while, and waited for her to come to visit the class.

Since I can't sleep, I watch TV series, I happened to be broadcasting "Kangxi Dynasty" starring Uncle Daoming recently, and I watched a few episodes intermittently on Peach Blossom Island before, and I feel that it is much worse than the previous "Yongzheng Dynasty".

Recently, because of the popularity of "Kangxi Dynasty", there has been a lot of news boasting about Uncle Daoming's acting skills on the Internet or in the media. However, Li Tang seems that Uncle Daoming's performance of opening and closing is okay to coax the layman, if you carefully scrutinize it from a professional point of view, you will find that in fact, Uncle Daoming's version of Kangxi is too exposed, and Mr. Jiao Huang fully interprets an unfathomable, unangry and self-righteous Kangxi image with introverted and calm acting skills.

Especially the physical movements of the characters, Mr. Jiao Huang threw Uncle Daoming at least three streets.

To put it bluntly, one is Kangxi who plays it, and the other is Kangxi.

And Uncle Daoming's Kangxi is not even as good as Yongzheng, a teacher of Guoqiang. Of course, this is also related to the theme of the two plays, Mr. Guoqiang's Yongzheng is a character who has experienced a lot of ups and downs, even the prince and the emperor have a lot of grievances and helplessness, the inner drama is very full, and the characters are very plump.

Uncle Daoming's Kangxi is more of a praise for a character, domineering, domineering, in short, wise and martial, all the way, lacking the sense of heaviness of the character.

Of course, this is probably the reason why the audience likes it, one word "cool".

It's quite good to pass the time in a TV series like "Kangxi Dynasty", but looking at it, Li Tang couldn't help laughing. It turned out that the second young grandmother of the Bai family, who played the Empress Dowager in the TV series, declared at every turn: How is my filial piety.

You must know that the so-called "filial piety" is the honorific title after death. This is similar to the emperor's temple name, such as Emperor Kangxi, Kangxi is the year name, and the temple name after his death is the Holy Ancestor, because the word "benevolence" is prominently highlighted in the name, and later generations are generally honored as "Holy Zuren Emperor". It's the same as honorifizing the deceased Empress Dowager "Xiaozhuang".

And the Empress Dowager who is actually alive on TV calls herself "Xiaozhuang", there is really no one, even Li Tang, a common sense known to ordinary people who are not specialized in history, haven't so many screenwriters, directors, and actors in this TV series found out?

In the final analysis, it is still the same sentence: no culture, too terrible.

watched the second young grandmother of the Bai family on TV with a "I filial piety", which disgusted Li Tang and simply changed the channel.

swept around with the remote control, and it happened that the Zhejiang Cable TV Drama Channel was rebroadcasting "Snow Without a Trace", which is an anti-corruption drama, which premiered at the beginning of the year, and the replay frequency is still quite high.

Li Tang often watches TV series intermittently, and most of them can't be watched completely, unless it is a business need, so buy a disc and study it carefully from beginning to end.

This TV series is actually average, mainly with acquaintances, the male number one Ren Chengwei is a senior brother of level 89 in the play, and now he is a Mandarin actor, because he has met his ex-girlfriend twice as a colleague, and he is a good person.

The second male is a colleague of the Drama Center, He Zhengjun, and it is rare for Mr. He with thick eyebrows and big eyes to play a villain, which is very fresh.

Li Tang watches TV series in addition to watching the plot, but also pays attention to the acting skills of the actors, which may be an occupational disease as an actor. Compared with Ren Chengwei and He Zhengjun's superb acting skills, Cao Ying, who plays the female number one, seems to have a lack of performance and is not good enough.

Especially under the backdrop of Ren Chengwei and He Zhengjun, Cao Ying's above-mentioned performance shortcomings are even more magnified. But it's understandable, people are not from a professional background after all.

In fact, the profession of an actor is really talented, and God feeds him, such as Zhou Xun, which is really rare. Most actors, like all types of technical work, in addition to having a certain talent, need to go through systematic training, otherwise you can't even pass your lines, your body is very poor, you can't perform crying scenes, and your facial muscles can't be well controlled, so you can't act at all.

From Li Tang's point of view, the biggest difference between the current China and the United States where he lived in his previous life is that most high schools in the United States have drama clubs and professional training teachers, if you are interested in acting, you can train it from middle school, and most universities have acting as a major.

At present, the professional performance majors in China are concentrated in the three professional colleges of Chinese opera, Shanghai opera and Nortel, although there are also performance majors similar to Beiguang, Beijing Normal University, Shandong University of the Arts, etc., but these schools in the circle are not very authentic.

Let's put it this way, the actor training system in the United States is a bit like the popularization of football youth training, because the base is large, there is a lot of room for selection, and the number of successful talents will naturally increase.

In China, because various provinces and cities have training systems such as dance and opera, the proportion of choices is actually very large, and those who can go to Chinese opera, opera and Nortel are actually very good. However, with the decline of dance and opera, more people are selected from fresh high school graduates, and the quality of students can be imagined.

It's no wonder that when Li Tang went back to his alma mater to visit his teacher last time, Mr. Li Zhiyu lamented to him that those students who are now studying acting are really not as good as a year.

……

The Traders Hotel is very close to the Jinhua River that passes through the city, Li Tang got up early in the morning and went to the riverside to run around, returned to the hotel to take a bath, changed into sportswear, and went to the downstairs restaurant to have breakfast leisurely, and then walked to the Jinhua Gymnasium a few hundred meters away.

The crew gave him a good treatment, in addition to the suite at the Traders Hotel, a car was specially arranged for him.

This is the first time he has taken on a big director's play, at least in terms of logistics, it is really extraordinary, and it is the first time he has enjoyed this kind of treatment.

Of course, a distance of a few hundred meters does not need to be delivered by car.

When I came to the gymnasium, there was already a crew of martial artists training in the stadium. Although Li Tang was wearing a hat, he was immediately recognized.

"Teacher Li, are you here?"

Li Tang glanced around: "Didn't Director Cheng come?" ”

"Come soon, Director Cheng usually arrives at about half past nine."

"Well, you're busy, I want to see it."

There was also a tightrope hanging in the stadium, watching the martial arts brothers go high and high, or do some difficult actions with the help of the wire, Li Tang observed for a while, and gradually bottomed up in his heart. The martial arts action in this drama is shot more with special effects, and the main thing is to look good.

"Li Tang, it's so early!"

Just as he was fascinated by it, there were voices around him.

Listening to the voice, Cheng Xiaodong has arrived.

"Director Cheng, hello, I'm here to report."

Although the two have met once since the last time they auditioned in Director Zhang's studio in the central villa area, today is only the second time they have met, but the two have had a lot of calls during this period, so the meeting is very cordial.

"How's your marksmanship doing?"

Cheng Xiaodong cared about Li Tang's marksmanship when he came up, after all, it was very demanding to play an opponent's action scene with the kung fu emperor Li Lian. In the Northwest Desert, Jiuzhaigou Bamboo Forest and Guilin Landscape, Li Lian played against Liang Chaowei and Zhang Yanyu, who had no kung fu foundation, especially Director Zhang's requirements for the portrayal of details dozens or even hundreds of times higher than that of Hong Kong films, and the difficulty made Cheng Xiaodong indescribable.

Li Tang arrived, although he had already handed over the marksmanship to the other party by video, but after all, the training was only ten days, and he was also worried that if Li Tang was busy with other work or did not discipline himself, time would be tight.

"Even if you shoot it now, it's no problem." Li Tang said with a smile.

Cheng Xiaodong looked at him in surprise, a little incredulous: "Try it?" ”

"Okay, let's try it."

I had been watching the training of the martial arts brothers just now, and Li Tang was already a little itchy.

"Zhang Ai!"

Cheng Xiaodong shouted into the arena.

"Here!"

A young man who didn't look tall and looked very young answered and hurried over.

"This is Zhang Ai, Li Lianlian's stand-in, you two try it."

Although the young man said that he was not very old, he was clever, and as soon as Cheng Xiaodong's voice fell, he hurriedly smiled at Li Tang, showing his big white teeth, and at the same time said with caution: "Teacher Li, let's run in for a while?" ”

"Okay!"

Li Tang is as good as a stream.

Soon someone brought in a prop gun.

However, Li Tang did not rush to make a move with Zhang Ai, but warmed up first.

Everyone who understands understands it, and when they see Li Tang's warm-up posture, everyone knows in their hearts that this actor who has just joined the group is knowledgeable.

Taking advantage of the warm-up, Li Tang chatted with Zhang Ai, the stand-in of Li Lian, and learned that this young man had just turned twenty, and he used to be a member of the Sichuan martial arts team, and he had won many provincial sword and stick long boxing championships.

The young man was very excited to be the stand-in for the kung fu emperor Li Lian, because Li Lianlian had a stand-in named Xiong Xinxin before, and he was already a kung fu star, and "Ghost Feet Seven" was impressive.

After some warm-up exercises, Li Tang completely moved his body, danced the prop gun to familiarize himself, and finally stood in the arena and smiled at Zhang Ai, who was holding a long sword, and said, "Come on!" ”

Yesterday's chapter was reviewed, but it hasn't been revised once, because it's the weekend, and I won't be able to contact the editor until Monday. Excuse me!
