"Good, very good!"

Lou Ye's voice came from the walkie-talkie, but the people at the scene didn't take it seriously, they started filming for two days, and every time they shouted to stop, they were this sentence, and there was no creativity at all. And everyone knows what the next sentence will say.

Sure enough, I heard it: "All departments hurry up and prepare, and there will be another one!" ”

In fact, when filming on the spot, another one is not just something that can come, photography, lighting, props, including the scheduling of on-site extras, and the positioning of the main actors, must be prepared from scratch before filming can be restarted.

The on-site executive director repeated the director's intention with a loudspeaker, hula, the on-site staff suddenly became busy, and the extras returned to their original positions one by one under the command of the assistant director.

Fortunately, after two days of shooting, everyone got used to it, and everything seemed to be in order, and Zeng Jian, who was in charge of shooting the synchronous documentary, carried the camera and meticulously recorded the situation on the scene.

This is a steel plant that has long been discontinued, and the crew has been arranged here a month in advance before the start-up, mainly to eliminate the traces of modern times and restore it to its original appearance as much as possible.

It is said that this steel mill was founded in the puppet Manchukuo period, is a Japanese-funded enterprise, and most of the steel produced here was used in the war of aggression against China and the Pacific theater.

Later, after being occupied by Lao Maozi, most of the equipment was dismantled by Lao Maozi and transported back to China. After our party took over, it demolished the east wall and made up the west wall, concentrated the old-fashioned equipment left by the Japanese at that time, and rebuilt it bit by bit to resume production. It not only supported the national battlefield, but also played an indelible role in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, not to mention the great support for socialist construction after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Today, the factory has completed its historical mission and is at the end of its life. At this time, he returned to the beginning of the establishment of this factory, recorded the vicissitudes of the past in the movie lens, and continued to exert his residual heat.

"Photography in place!"

"The lights are complete!"

"The extras are ready!"

"Everything is fine with the recording!"

“……”

The intercom kept coming from the sound of each group getting ready, everything was ready, and as the scene notes were played, the executive director took the megaphone and shouted: "Let's go!" ”

The scene suddenly became lively, and the wind and dust raised were accompanied by steam. Flames erupted from the pipes, and the hearth was once again blazing.

However, the so-called fire in the hearth is just an atmosphere created by the scene, in fact, the fire is only replaced by orange lights.

This is a long shot of Hiroshi Nakamura, dressed in a blue coverall, carrying a canvas bag and a white towel from his neck that has wiped off sweat and has visible stains, walking down the steaming blast furnace iron escalator.

On the way, he met two workers, who took off their hats and saluted, and Nakamura bowed back. When I walked to the door of the workshop, I met a group of extras dressed as workers.

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

Before 918, although the Japanese occupied the Liaodong Peninsula and the South Manchurian Railway, they were ceded during the Qing government. The Japanese-funded factories in the Northeast are a bit similar to the WFOEs after the reopening, with Japanese management, Japanese engineers, and a large number of Chinese workers.

The camera follows Nakamura as he walks through a dusty steelmaking workshop, covering his mouth and nose with a white towel around his neck, which visibly turns to gray when he comes out. He didn't care, just pulled the towel off, step by step, from far to near, towards the camera, and finally stopped in front of the camera, looking left and right, as if looking for something......

“Cut！”

"Good, very good......"

Lou Ye's voice came from the walkie-talkie.

It's just that after Lou Ye said yes this time, he paused. Just when everyone was holding their breath and hoping to hear a "pass", his hesitant voice came: "Uh...... Take a twenty-minute break! ”

"Whew-"

Everyone almost unanimously deflated for a long time, and the 20-minute break showed that the director was not satisfied and had to start over.

When the interpreter conveyed the director's meaning to Hiroshi Nakamura, who was still standing in front of the camera with his head held high, the head of the cargo suddenly drooped and walked towards the rest area without saying a word.

Li Tang and Zhang Ziyi also sat in the rest area, Li Tang was observing, and Zhang Ziyi was wearing makeup. Xiao Zhang's head was bare, and the middle of the hair that was not too thick was tightly attached to the hair, and the hair on both sides was followed by two twisted braids.

The key is her face, there is no eyebrow line, false eyelashes, lipstick, and even her face is painted more yellow with that dull paint, which looks like a yellow-haired girl with yellow skin and thin skin.

He was wearing a white shirt that looked gray and unwashed, the shirt was soft, with a soy sauce-colored vest on the outside, and a blue skirt covering the knees to the calves, but the skirt was a little white.

This kind of dress was called foreign students in that era, especially the girls were still in school, indicating that the family conditions were good, at least above the middle class. As for saying that the skirt has been washed and turned white, it can only show that the printing and dyeing technology at that time was not up to par, coupled with her sallow face and slightly unkempt, which fully shows that the situation and people's livelihood were difficult at that time, even if the middle class and above lived a poor life.

In this regard, the work of Liu Weixing, the art designer of the crew, is quite meticulous.

Nakamura Heng walked in and saw Zhang Ziyi, who was waiting, showing a look of shame, and bowed deeply: "I'm sorry, Miss Zhang, I've caused you trouble!" ”

The two who were sitting and chatting hurriedly stood up when they saw this, Zhang Ziyi was still a little unclear So, before the translator who was following Zhongcun Heng could translate, Li Tang did his job.

After listening to Li Tang's translation, Zhang Ziyi suddenly smiled, bent down slightly and said, "It's okay, it's normal." ”

As he spoke, he deliberately made a gesture of cheering that is commonly used by the Japanese, and encouraged: "Nakamura-kun, come on!" ”

"Hey!"

This sentence can be understood without a translator, and he hurriedly bows again with a teachable face.

Little Japan is like this, on the surface it is always very polite, very sincere, and full of courtesy, but no one knows what the real thoughts are inside.

But Zhang Ziyi is really not a fake politeness, the reason why she sits very steadily and has no complaints is because this girl has been filming "2046" directed by Wong Kar-wai before, and she has not finished filming for more than half a year, and she has to continue filming after filming "Purple Butterfly" this time, and her psychological quality has long been very strong. So Lou Ye is like this compared to the king of sunglasses, which is where it is, very stable.

After some politeness, everyone sat down again, Li Tang deliberately glanced at him, only to see that after the goods sat down, he showed a bitter face, and just such a shot was repeated for two days.

Don't look at his attitude when shooting, he has always been very good, diligent and has no complaints, but as he does it over and over again, the director never gives him a clear signal, and he is also numb.

For example, the one he just filmed, he feels very good about himself, and he has avoided the problems that occurred during the previous filming after reflection, which is almost impeccable, but the director is still not satisfied. He doesn't even know what to do now, so he can't repeat it again, right?

As an idol-born Japanese second-tier actor, it was not easy for him to get this role. Japan has always admired the West, and the first-tier celebrities are trying to break into Hollywood, while the second-tier ones are thinking about how to win awards at international film festivals. Although Japan has produced many directors who have won awards at the three major European film festivals, it is a small country with limited size.

At present, China seems to be very backward, but in recent years, it has developed very rapidly, and there are many talents in a large number of big countries, and the new generation of so-called sixth-generation directors led by Zhang Yuan, Lou Ye, and Jia Section Chief has risen at an astonishing speed, and good news has been frequently reported overseas.

It's just that because these are all underground movies, they go against the mainstream consciousness. Just like this Cannes Film Festival, "Women Don't Cry" directed by Liu Bingjian was highly evaluated, but it was silent in the domestic mainstream media, at most it was reported on the Internet.

Therefore, they are well-known among the domestic audience group, and their recognition is very limited, but they have caused a lot of sensation in the stick and book, after all, they are also Asian films, and they are honored to be able to win awards and receive praise at international film festivals led by white masters.

This time, he was able to get Lou Ye's invitation to appear in "Purple Butterfly", although he only played the villain role of the second male lead, but if he could go to the three major European film festivals at that time, for an idol-born actor, it would definitely be a coffee promotion. Not to mention, Teruyuki Kagawa, who starred in Jiang Wen's movie "The Devil is Coming" two years ago, is a good example.

So he has been working hard since receiving the script, and he really wants to play this role well. It's a pity that he was given a slap in the face as soon as he started the filming, and a scene was filmed for two days.

Just when he was confused and distressed, he inadvertently raised his head and happened to see Li Tang's gaze. He hurriedly restrained the sadness on his face and nodded politely.

But at this time, he was moved, since he had no choice, and the director did not have specific guidance, maybe he could ask others for advice.

It's just that the Japanese are always slimy and extremely reluctant to trouble others. But when there is nothing to be done, it can be pulled down and low-pitched.

So, after some ideological struggle, he resolutely got up and walked towards Li Tang.

Originally, Li Tang was listening to Xiao Zhang talk about the interesting story of filming "2046", for Xiao Zhang, being able to become the female lead in the film directed by Wong Kar-wai and cooperating with Cannes actor Tony Leung is a thing worth showing off.

was chatting hotly, and as soon as Li Tang looked up, he saw Nakamura Heng walking towards him. Out of courtesy, he quickly stood up, and before he could speak, he saw this little notebook bow heavily to him, and said sincerely: "Li Sang, I want your help, please!" ”

Without a translator, Li Tang could naturally understand, but he didn't know what he wanted to help himself, so he hurriedly bowed back, and at the same time said a little unclear: "Zhongcun-kun, please tell me if you have something." ”

The second update!
