Chapter 573: Constant Trouble

The clouds were heavy, the cold wind was howling, and some people said it was going to snow.

On the streets of Dalian, pedestrians are in a hurry, and everyone is shrunk in heavy coats, wrapped tightly up and down, for fear of leaking a little wind.

In such weather, if you catch a cold, it is not a pleasant thing.

On the set of "Dalian by the Sea", three field workers stood guard outside the gate, curling their necks, hands and bent their bodies, vigilantly looking at the reporters across the street.

On the day of start-up, Dalian foggy days, there will still be heavy fog in the next few days, often can last until more than ten o'clock in the morning, the late sunshine only then will dissipate heat and dispel the fog.

When there is a lot of fog, it is also beneficial, and reporters and fans can't take pictures secretly.

Although such candid filming should not leak the plot of the movie, the crew is generally more annoying.

Reuters photos are a means of hype, and how to promote the movie is naturally decided by Fenghua Film and Television Company, rather than by reporters and fans uploading photos on the set, so the crew of "Dalian by the Sea" specially arranged a few people to stay outside the set to prevent reporters from taking pictures secretly at the door.

Dapeng is in charge of these things, and Li Shengyao asked Dapeng to be the assistant director and manage the chores on the set.

At this time, it was already half past nine, and it had been forty minutes since Lee Shengyao came to the set.

Before the actors came, he first walked alone and thought about how to position the camera and what angle he should shoot from.

Dapeng wore a beanie hat and a cotton coat, and trotted forward, "Director, our bus is jammed, and it will take half an hour." ”

"Stuck in traffic?"

It stands to reason that the bus that the actors are riding has already arrived, but it has not come here at this time.

Dapeng nodded, "It was said that the road was too slippery and there was a car accident." ”

The weather in the Northeast is cold, and in the morning, the ground is frozen and slippery, not to mention cars, and pedestrians should be careful.

Li Shengyao nodded, not too concerned.

Dapeng handed Li Shengyao a piece of information, and then said: "Director, this is today's shooting schedule, originally the plan was made according to the start of work at nine o'clock, but now it seems that today I am afraid it will not be completed." ”

Lee has always tried to shoot scientifically and more efficiently.

He arranged for the assistant directors to make a shooting schedule in advance, and there were different shooting tasks every day.

In this situation, you may not be able to catch up with the schedule when you leave work.

Dapeng is a little worried, they are all Li Shengyao's henchmen, knowing Li Shengyao's thoughts, Director Li wants to shoot "Dalian by the Sea", "Three Billboards", "La La Land", and the production of the three films has a schedule.

If it takes too much time to make "Dalian by the Sea", it will affect the production of the next two films.

"It's okay, it can't be done, so we'll postpone it a little."

Li Shengyao didn't have a superfluous expression, he didn't seem to care.

Dapeng nodded, he was a little embarrassed, he didn't dare to look at Li Shengyao, and said in a low voice: "Director, look at this weather, it may snow at any time, and our schedule needs to be adjusted." ”

This time, the shooting schedule is mainly arranged by Dapeng.

He was ashamed that he had not taken into account the effects of the weather, and at the same time worried that Lee Shengyao would question his abilities.

This time, Wen Muye followed over as an assistant director, Wen Muye followed Li Shengyao to talk to the actors on the set, and sometimes helped Li Shengyao direct and serve as the executive director.

This gave Dapeng a sense of crisis.

Li Shengyao didn't know what Dapeng was thinking, so he replied casually, "I know." ”

Dapeng secretly glanced at Li Shengyao, and saw that his face was flat, and his hanging heart still did not let go.

"Director, there has been a lot of news about the crew recently, should we make some statements, or make an official account, and post some news on the Internet."

The media in the mainland did not want to see Lu Han and Zhang Songwen, and they were not very optimistic about "Dalian by the Sea", and now there are a lot of negative news about "Dalian by the Sea" on the Internet.

When Li Shengyao heard this, he thought about it and said: "Yes, take more photos of Lu Han and Zhang Songwen, and we have to show our attitude of support for them." ”

Director Li will not be affected by the negative news on the Internet, he is mainly worried that these news will affect Lu Han and Zhang Songwen and affect the filming of the crew.

Roc received the order and left.

At about ten o'clock, the bus carrying several of the main actors finally came.

Just as the workers were ready to start work, a fog swayed and drifted, and it fogged again.

There is no way to shoot in such weather.

Dapeng found Wen Muye, Bi Gan and a few people, and said in a low voice: "Wait a while, be smart, don't make the director angry." ”

The weather is really annoying, foggy from time to time, and very cold, and it only takes a few days to start, but it is always delayed.

Every day of delay not only has to adjust the shooting plan, but also consumes more money.

Not only Dapeng, but also the field workers and actors are very careful, and everyone doesn't want to touch the mold.

"Lu Han, Lu Han, Lu Han."

There was no way to shoot, so Lee Shengyao arranged for the actors to rehearse.

Before it started, the makeup artist was still putting on makeup, and Luhan's fans knew that their idol had come to the set, and then shouted loudly.

Lu Han was putting on makeup, and twenty minutes later, he put on his makeup, and the fans outside were still shouting.

He looked apologetic, "Director, I'm sorry, I'll go out now and let them be quiet." ”

"You don't have to apologize, this matter has nothing to do with you, don't be pressured, just talk to the fans."

Lu Han nodded, and then walked out quickly, and soon after, the shouting outside really stopped.

The set was much quieter.

Lu Han returned to the set and then rehearsed with the others.

In less than ten minutes, Zhang Songwen, who had been relatively normal, suddenly cut and sneezed, and sneezed several times in a row.

Naturally, it wasn't that someone missed him, but that he was sick and cold.

Zhang Songwen put on makeup, but there were still bloodshots in his eyes, and he didn't rest well.

Dapeng, Wen Muye, and Bi Gan didn't think there was a problem, they thought that Zhang Songwen could just insist.

Li Shengyao said in a low voice: "The actor's body is more important, and Zhang Songwen should be allowed to rest at this time." ”

The actor has a cold, and he is still rehearsing here, and his spirit is commendable, but if he infects other actors with a cold, it will be even more troublesome.

Li Shengyao then called Zhang Songwen over and asked him to go back to the hotel to rest.

"Director, I'...... I ......"

Zhang Songwen looked guilty, he felt that he had brought too much trouble to the crew.

Li Shengyao smiled, "Don't care, it's normal for you to be in this situation, if you are sick, you can recuperate, we don't have to hurry, your body is important." ”

Zhang Songwen persuaded Li Shengyao to leave, he asked Zhang Songwen to rest well, don't stay up late to study performances, and a good physical condition can contribute to a good performance.

After Zhang Songwen left, Li Shengyao arranged for Lu Han and others to rehearse the play without Zhang Songwen.

It was almost twelve o'clock when the light sunlight fell on the earth, and the fog dissipated.

Wen Muye was very happy and shouted for the film crew to prepare, wanting to shoot one before leaving work, but the photographer kept adjusting the parameters, and by twelve o'clock, the shooting parameters had not been adjusted.

Different intensities of light, clouds of different brightness, as well as high winds and fog can affect the photographic parameters.

The weather is constantly changing, and there is no way to fix the photographic parameters, so every time you shoot, you have to readjust it.

"Okay, it's time to get off work."

Dapeng shouted with a loudspeaker, and then looked at Li Shengyao worriedly.

This morning, the actors' buses were jammed, the actors were late, and there was a foggy day, Luhan's fans were shouting outside, and then the sun came out, but the camera parameters were adjusted, and it still didn't work until twelve o'clock.

Dapeng felt that bad luck continued today, and he was a little worried about Li Shengyao's psychological state.

He has already started directing film and television dramas, he knows that there are many things to direct, and all aspects need to be considered, and sometimes it is really annoying, and he can't wait to find someone to scold him so that he can vent his anger.

However, Li Shengyao did not have any negative expression, he nodded to Dapeng with a calm face, and then prepared to go to lunch.

The Roc immediately followed.

Not long after, Li Shengyao sat with Dapeng and Bi Gan, and Director Li noticed that several assistant directors were worried about the filming progress, and while eating, they taught their own experience, "You must remember that you must be calm when you encounter things, lose your temper, and blindly make decisions will only make things worse, we must think twice." ”

Today, the crew encountered so many things, and Li Shengyao can be regarded as a sample.

When several people in Dapeng heard Li Shengyao's words, they all nodded solemnly.

Bi Gan and Wen Muye have no independent directing experience, only Dapeng knows that when they become directors, there are really a lot of worries, and it is really difficult to maintain their mentality.

Li Shengyao didn't make any big moves today, which still made Dapeng admire, and he felt that Li Dadao's concentration was enough for him to learn.

"I will go to Hangzhou in a few days, and then the three of you will stare at the set and shoot a few unimportant plots."

It's almost the end of the year, and Lee Shengyao has received a lot of invitations, some of which can be pushed down, and some of which can't.

It's like the Golden Rooster Award Gala and the Huabiao Award Gala.

Li Shengyao will pass, and it will be delayed for three or four days.

When Dapeng heard this, he realized that the filming cycle of "Dalian by the Sea" was shorter than he expected, and if he wanted not to affect "Three Billboards" and "La La Land", the shooting task was actually very tight.

Under such circumstances, when encountering something like today, Li Shengyao is still so calm, and he admires it even more in his heart.

Lee Shengyao didn't know what Dapeng was thinking, but he actually knew in his heart that under bad weather, there would be all kinds of troubles in the future, and this time the shooting had to be very efficient to complete the shooting at the expected time.

Today we did run into a different problem.

However, he knows very well that tantrums and yelling will not solve the trouble, he needs to calm down, not let the actors be affected, but also boost the actors' confidence and let them perform at their best.

……

The Golden Rooster Award is the most important and professional film award in the mainland.

After getting the Golden Rooster Actor, he can at least say loudly that he is a powerful faction.

This time, "Parasite" participated in the Golden Rooster Award.

Among them, Leung Jiahui was also nominated for Best Actor, and he is likely to become another Hong Kong Island actor who won the Golden Rooster Award after Cheng Long.

When Cheng Long won the Golden Rooster Actor a few years ago, he was somewhat of an official award, and the industry was not very recognized.

Now Liang Jiahui is different, if he wins the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, his professionalism will obviously be much stronger.

It is also Liang Jiahui who hopes to win the best actor, and Li Shengyao must be present in person, which can be regarded as cheering for Liang Jiahui.

As for whether "Parasite" can win other awards, he doesn't really care.

At 8 p.m. on November 16, 2012, the Golden Rooster Award Gala was held at the Hangzhou International Conference Center.

The stars are shining, not only Li Shengyao, Lao Mouzi, Brother Kaizi, Cheng Long, Liu Dehua, Liang Chaowei and other film and television superstars have also come over.

There are even more ordinary celebrity entertainers.

With the mainland's economic strength getting stronger and stronger, the film market is getting bigger and bigger, and the starlight of the Golden Rooster Awards has obviously surpassed the Academy Awards and the Golden Horse Awards, and now there is a momentum of the first Chinese film award.

Li Shengyao sat with Lao Mouzi and Brother Kaizi.

Kai Zige's "Search" was released in July, although the box office is not high, but the reputation is good.

Brother Kaizi seemed to be alive, his complexion was excellent at this time, and he kept a smile on his face.

And Lao Mouzi has come out of the shadow of breaking with Zhang Weiping at this time, even if there is no Zhang Weiping and Zhang Luo, there are still a lot of rich people waving banknotes, waiting to invest in Lao Mouzi's new movie.

This made Lao Mouzi breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, on the stage, star artists went up and down, awarding awards one after another.

Li Shengyao, Lao Mouzi, and Brother Kaizi applauded and smiled programmatically.

Lao Mouzi said in a low voice: "Director Li, you have been in the news every day on the Internet recently, you don't want to find someone to restrict it." ”

"La La Land" chose Pan Yueming, which suddenly pushed Li Shengyao to the forefront.

Li Shengyao didn't pay attention to this matter, public opinion was still fermenting, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that someone wanted to use this to attack Li Shengyao.

However, there was no movement on Fenghua's side, which surprised everyone very much.

Li Shengyao has the resources and power, why not fight back?

Some people think that Li Shengyao is letting netizens hype, just wants to take the black and red route.

Lao Mouzi felt that Li Shengyao didn't need black and red, and he felt that there should be other reasons.

When Li Shengyao heard this, he chuckled and said: "Small matter, Pan Yueming has not already sued, the court will naturally give justice, I am not in a hurry." ”

Lao Mouzi thought about it and understood what Li Shengyao meant, but he was still a little puzzled.

couldn't help but say: "The court judgment is estimated to wait until next year, there are still many months, and "Dalian by the Sea", there is also a lot of negative news, do you really not care at all?"

Although Lao Mouzi is old and never responds positively to some black material on the Internet, he still cares about the comments of netizens.

Every time he makes a bad movie, he will make a literary film to save his reputation.

Li Shengyao let go of negative news on the Internet this time, and he couldn't understand it.

Li Shengyao shook his head, "I let the news spread about "La La Land" and Pan Yueming, but "Dalian by the Sea", I will deal with it in time and find someone to be responsible." ”

When Lao Mouzi heard this, he knew that Li Shengyao had ideas, so he changed the topic, "Isn't it very bitter to film in the Northeast?"

Li Shengyao nodded, "Yes, especially filming at this time, it's too uncomfortable, it's often foggy, it's very cold, and there are a lot of all kinds of things." ”

"Well, when you chose Dalian, I wanted to persuade you, don't go anywhere, it's too troublesome to film in winter, but considering your character, you won't listen to me, so I didn't say it, you just passed now, it's too late to change places."

Li Shengyao smiled, "Heaven has sent a great task to the people, suffering their minds, starving their bodies, I will do a good job and grind more." ”

He will not run away when he encounters difficulties, and he has been prepared for such weather in Dalian.

Moreover, the filming of "Dalian by the Sea" needed such cold weather.

As long as there is a condition, he will keep improving.
