Chapter 272: [An Xiaozhou who feels deeply humiliated]
"You've probably seen the Grudge, right?"
In the audition room, Lu Zhengyi asked An Xiaozhou kindly.
"Yes, but I didn't make it to the premiere."
An Xiaozhou hurriedly replied, "At the beginning, our domestic theaters were more nervous than Heguo and Tangguo, and later after the movie was released for a while, some of our domestic theaters urgently purchased the screening rights. ”
"After I went with my friends to read it, it really took a long time to slow down, and I always felt that the coconut was hidden somewhere in my life."
"But if I had known at the time that I would be able to participate in the creation of the second part one day in the future, I might have been able to watch the movie with gratitude."
She replied cautiously, her tone full of flattery, and emphasized that she was concerned about the news of the curse.
And whether this is the truth or not, or she didn't know about it until she received an audition invitation for this play, she does know about this movie.
However, the usage and description of some of her words are also the same as that of Director Kim, and there are inappropriate places.
But Mr. Lu doesn't want to pay too much attention to this all the time.
"In that case, then let's ask Mr. An to pretend to be a reporter."
Lu Zhengyi gave the title and gestured to the room with his palm, "In the background, this is the house of the coconut." ”
"At present, because more and more people are dying, the high-level officials of the country have learned about the curse, and have sealed off this house, and now it is surrounded by guardrails on all sides, and a high wall is being built to isolate this house, so that it will never see the light of day."
"And the specific plot of this scene is that during the construction of the exterior wall, you, as a reporter who dares to report the truth, want to reveal the truth here to the public, so you cautiously sneak into this house and meet Ga Coconut, which is probably such a scene."
Compared to the original work, the grudge is actually completely different from the previous world in the first part.
Like the old corpse in the mountain village, the curse was in that era, although it was the peak of horror of an era.
Can be used in the plot logic, costume modeling...... In all aspects, if it is released in a later era, it may not be able to become a pinnacle, a classic, or even a bad movie.
And Lu Zhengyi now has the ability to be a director.
He can just use such a theme and such an idea, but in terms of the actual plot, he is creating as an audience after watching.
As for the curse of the previous life, Lu Zhengyi had a lot of thoughts after reading it.
One of the more important points is why there are no relevant departments in the film to pay attention to this matter, and so many people have died.
Of course, this issue was brought up in the follow-up American version of the Curse, where someone destroyed the house of the Curse, so that the resentment that was originally trapped in the house no longer needed to use the person who entered the house as a medium, but could permeate the air wantonly.
But this is the plot of the later American version, in the original work that was called a classic at the beginning, it was just someone who tried it, but it was killed before it succeeded.
In the plot, there are no more people who are concerned about the curse.
At that time, many of those old films actually had similar flaws and lacked logic in the plot.
But in those days, such flaws were not a problem, the focus was on whether the plot was interesting and thrilling.
And if Lu Zhengyi wants to shoot it in this world and attract the audience, it must be greatly modified.
After getting a specific shooting demand, An Xiaozhou began to think in his heart about how to perform this part well.
After all, it was improvisation, and she didn't think too long, just for a moment, and then nodded her head to indicate that she could start.
"Wait, you wait at the door first."
Lu Zhengyi didn't let her start acting, but motioned for her to leave the house first, and then looked to the side, "Go and call Xiaoxu over, and then wait for Teacher An to play and act as her ...... Photographer, yes, there has to be a photographer next to the reporter. ”
"Remember, whatever you see, you pretend you don't see it."
"Let Mr. An feel the gaconuts first and understand this frightened reaction."
"Huh?"
Bai Wei looked at him blankly.
"Let's ...... Are you going to let her meet the special effects artist now? ”
Zhang Yu was also a little hesitant.
Never before have they been in the audition process to give actors a taste of their crew's routine.
"Although, if you wait until the actual shooting to let her see it, the effect of being frightened may be more realistic." Lu Zhengyi explained, "But considering that last time, Teacher Abukuan suddenly fainted, I think it is better to give her the bottom first." ”
"Fainted?"
Zhang Yu first asked rhetorically, "Oh yes, I seem to have seen them discuss such a thing in the group." ”
He was not involved in the filming of Curse 1.
What happened at that time, he could only learn from other people in the crew through group chats at home.
However, Lu Zhengyi spoke up as a director, and although the two of them had doubts, they did not interfere.
Bai Wei got up to leave, and after a while, Wang Xiaoxu's figure passed directly through the wall and came over.
"Wait a minute, you build an illusion of Gacoco behind us." Lu Zhengyi didn't explain much, and directly began to order his work, "Then slowly crawled over from the table and walked towards Teacher An Xiaozhou, who was waiting to come in and audition. ”
He pointed his finger at the path of the coconuts waiting for the next coconut.
As for how to climb and what to look like, this is Wang Xiaoxu's job as a special effects artist.
"Understood."
Wang Xiaoxu made an OK gesture, but his expression was a little helpless, "Whenever this happens, I always feel like a bad person." ”
"That's just the job."
Lu Zhengyi reassured, "Then you are ready, I will call people in." ”
And after getting Wang Xiaoxu's response, he loudly signaled that the two people outside the house could start.
Immediately after, the door was opened.
An Xiaozhou, dressed in an old-fashioned suit and wearing glasses, walked in front, while Bai Wei walked behind, his hands on his left shoulder, as if carrying a camera.
Although it is only a scene note, in the last play, he has officially become Zhang Yu's apprentice and is learning some director's work.
As a director, you need to understand all aspects of the crew's work, whether it is actors, props, makeup or shooting, although it is not to reach a certain level, but at least you must have an understanding.
So at this moment, Bai Wei, who has no real object to pretend to be a photographer, is also decent.
"Now, we have entered the house that has been asked to be closed by the relevant authorities."
An Xiaozhou also raised his hands in a physical object, as if he was holding a voice recorder, and said in a harmony with a slight accent of the Southern Dynasty, "Some time ago, after this house was frequently exposed to murders, it was listed by many people as a haunted house and a murderous house. ”
"In less than a few days after the incident fermented, the relevant departments suddenly ordered that all the surrounding residents move out and start construction around it, but the murderer and the investigation of the murder were not mentioned, and many netizens speculated that the identity of the murderer may be related to Kyoto Prefecture."
In response, the people in the vicinity raised their voices and erected high signs and banners in protest......
It's not a line written in advance, these contents are all made up by her on the spot based on Lu Zhengyi's topic.
She explained to Bai Wei, who was carrying the camera next to her, or should she explain to the camera, like a live reporter with a news connection.
Lu Zhengyi watched this scene with interest, and he was very satisfied with this improvised line and performance.
And soon, An Xiaozhou, who was originally focused on explaining, slammed down, and Lu was frightened behind, staring at them with a pair of eyes.
"Huh?"
Behind the table, Lu Zhengyi turned his head suspiciously, and next to him, Zhang Yu also reacted the same.
They all believe that Wang Xiaoxu has already started.
But strangely, when they looked back, they didn't see any visions.
Lu Zhengyi looked blankly at Wang Xiaoxu, who was hiding next to him, and from his face, he felt the same emotion.
Obviously, An Xiaozhou was just singing a one-man show just now.
After all, he had told her in advance in the plot he said just now, and she needed to see Ga Coconut's performance.
But from this point alone, her performance is worthy of being the person who can still get the actress in that country of entertainment involution.
The look and appearance just now really made the two of them think that Wang Xiaoxu, a special effects artist, had already started working.
It's time for the actor to come out. ’
While Lu Zhengyi was satisfied with An Xiaozhou's performance, he couldn't help but give Wang Xiaoxu a look.
Wang Xiaoxu reacted and quickly began to think.
And with his thoughts, a woman in a white robe and a cloak appeared abruptly behind the two.
Lu Zhengyi and Zhang Yu were satisfied, and then they turned around, and then they paused again when they saw An Xiaozhou playing in the open space in front of them.
Compared to the pause just now, her pause was more sluggish this time.
The whole person was stupid, looking behind them in a daze, as if the computer had crashed.
Then, when Gacoco twisted her body, lay down like a centipede, and crawled past the table, Ahn Hyo-ju let out a sharp scream.
The scream was wanton and cheerful.
It's as if you no longer care about your environment, and you are shouting unscrupulously on the edge of a vast plain or a high mountain cliff.
"What, what's wrong!"
Startled by this scream, Bai Wei suppressed his inner emotions with great difficulty, pretended to be invisible, and asked An Xiaozhou.
“…… Ghosts, ghosts! ”
An Xiaozhou, who was still in the brain just now, finally came back to his senses after a scream, and while trembling, he grabbed Bai Wei's arm with a pair of palms, and the sharp nails were pierced into people's clothes, "There are ghosts!" Ghosts! ”
She was no longer speaking in Japanese, but in Southern Korean, which was incomprehensible to several people present.
Although several people present couldn't understand it, they could all feel her excitement from her emotions.
"What?"
Bai Wei bit his lip with his teeth and thought about the saddest things in his life, so that he had the ability to continue acting, "What are you talking about, Reporter An?" ”
"Ann reporter?"
An Xiaozhou's voice increased, and he finally understood that no one else could understand what he was saying, so he quickly changed back to Tang, "That!" That's it! ”
"Can't you see!"
"There are ghosts!"
The language she used was no longer the Japanese language of acting, and while talking, she kept pulling Bai Wei who was blocking the door.
But how could her small appearance push these five big and three rough men?
"What the hell?"
Bai Wei looked at her blankly, "Reporter An, if you call it so loudly, people outside will find out!" ”
He kindly reminded that according to the script just set, there were construction workers outside at this time.
"Go away! Ghosts! ”
An Xiaozhou began to cry, and tears fell straight down.
As the coconuts crawled and squirmed, her back was completely against the wall, and her palms weakly pushed Bai Wei who was blocking the door next to her.
"No more acting, no more acting!"
"There are ghosts, there are really ghosts!"
"Director Lu, I'm not acting, I'm not acting!"
The head of the cocoon's cloak was in front of him, and An Xiaozhou seemed to be able to feel the rancid smell coming from it.
She closed her eyes tightly and kept shouting, but she didn't faint in fright.
However, for a while, An Xiaozhou did not feel the feeling of being pinched by the neck or biting his face by his teeth, but heard a 'pop' applause.
"Okay, good, Mr. An's reaction is very real."
Then, Director Lu Zhengyi's praising voice sounded.
"I said I wasn't acting!"
An Xiaozhou couldn't help but roar loudly, and when she opened her eyes, there was no coco in front of her.
Lu Zhengyi, Bai Wei, and Zhang Yu, they were looking at themselves with satisfaction.
"Teacher An doesn't seem to know our crew very well."
Lu Zhengyi explained, "When we are filming in the crew, we will use virtual technology to build those infiltrating ghosts and gods. ”
Virtual, virtual technology?
An Xiaozhou looked at him blankly, and the tears on his face slipped slowly.
She didn't react, what did she mean?
"So it's fake?"
She had a pale face, "You just saw it, that gaco. ”
"Well, virtual technology."
Lu Zhengyi nodded, "When the time comes to actually shoot, you need to play against such a virtual shadow, of course, sometimes, it will also be arranged to be played by real people, the actors of Gaco and Minai Saeki, we are also invited to participate in the filming of the second part." ”
His tone was flat, and he didn't feel any guilt at all about what he had just done.
"Heh, hehe......"
And after listening to Lu Zhengyi's explanation, An Xiaozhou was stunned for a few seconds, and then he laughed miserably, wanting to do something more, but his body fell weakly along the wall against which his back was leaning.
At this moment, her back was completely wet with sweat.
Although it was only a few seconds, the moment just now was definitely the most thrilling moment in her life, and she didn't have such a violent emotion when she got the movie for the first time.
Even almost ......
An Xiaozhou only scolded 'Assi' in his heart, and used all the swear words he had scolded people in his life.
But the person in front of her is the director, and she will participate in his movie next, so she can only scold in her heart, but on the surface, she can only show a helpless expression, "Director Lu, you really ...... just now It scared me, why couldn't you tell me in advance. ”
Humiliating, but helpless.
But she was quick to accept it.
After all, in the Southern Dynasties, such a humiliating thing, as an actor, or a person in the entertainment industry, must have to experience once, twice, or even hundreds of times.
"Teacher An, why don't we take a look at the replay."
Lu Zhengyi motioned for her to look at the real camera in the corner, instead of Bai Wei's air without physical performance, "If you can also do the reaction just now when you actually shoot, I think that Curse 2 may be more successful than Curse 1." ”
