Chapter 68: Dead Bodies Professional
Ningxia, Yinchuan.
Zhenbeibao Western Film and Television City.
On the desolate Gobi Desert, from a distance, a large group of soldiers wearing Tang Dynasty armor are catching and fighting in the wasteland, most of these soldiers are wearing Mingguang armor, some of them are holding weapons to attack, some are throwing weapons and hugging in a group to fight, standing far away, it is really jubilant, it can be described as flying sand and stones, shouting and shaking the sky, but standing close and looking at it, only to see the weapon attacking, you come and go, the two weapons are waving softly, even if they are forceful, they are just weapons colliding back and forth, and they do not greet each other's vital points; γ
The most important thing is that many of them have hippie smiles and giggles, which really makes the battlefield that should be murderous suddenly absurd.
Liu Fei'er was wearing a light ring lock armor, which is commonly known as chain mail, she was holding a sword, posing in a majestic shape, and was about to steer forward to swing the long sword, bravely "killing the enemy", but suddenly heard a shout next to her: "cut!!" (About Liu Fei'er, please refer to the clumsy work "Raising a Vixen at Home") Liu Fei'er suddenly sighed, and turned her head helplessly to look to the side, but saw a big fat man on the side poking his head out from behind the monitor, roaring like a tyrannosaurus spitting fire: "What are you doing!" Why are you looking at the camera again!!!Old Han, old Han, fucking roll over to Lao Tzu!"
Lao Han was a thin middle-aged man, and when he heard this, he immediately ran over with a smiling face: "Hey, Director Li, what's wrong?"
Director Li pointed at the group of "soldiers" who stopped and were at a loss, and spat wildly: "What kind of group performance are you looking for? Are there any hippie smiling faces? Do you think the street gangsters are fighting? Okay, even if you don't fight well, forget it, I'll bear it! Why do you keep looking at the camera? You can't fight well, I use a back silhouette, and a large panorama can also be used, why don't you always look at the camera when I give me a medium and close shot, do you want to play with me?"
Lao Han is obviously also an old fritter, even if the saliva on the other side is flying, he spits on his face, and keeps a smile on his face without moving, and when Director Li finishes spraying, he laughs and says: "Director Li, isn't there no way? Recently, eight crews in the film and television city started work at the same time, and four of them are war dramas, and this group of performances has broken through! Haven't I found anyone?"
Director Li said angrily: "If you can't find anyone, you're looking for such things to fool me?"
He was originally loud, and this sentence made the group performers on the opposite side hear it clearly.
If it is a professional group performance who eats this bowl of rice, then if you scold, you will be scolded, where is there a director who does not scold? As old rivers and lakes and old fritters, they are all used to it, and they all take money anyway.
But this group of people is a local villager, because of the lack of group performances, they were found to work temporarily, these villagers heard that they came to act, and they could watch the big stars, and they could join in the fun, and they could get some money to spend, and they flocked out one by one, because their group performance leader was pryed away by a crew next to him and Director Li, who was troubled by the lack of group performances, was suddenly overjoyed, but soon he couldn't be happy.
Why is the quality of Chinese films relatively inferior to American films in many places? A large part of the reason is that all aspects of film production are much worse than those of American films, and the most obvious of them is group performances.
The actors who run a group performance in Hollywood, they are not the "local people" who eat and drink all day long, these are actors who come to Hollywood with movie dreams and star dreams to try their luck, countless of them have excellent acting skills, and countless people are not bad at all compared to big stars, but they lack opportunities.
Because this group of people is too large, as soon as the director calls for a group performance, a large group of actors with rich experience in film, television and even drama can be brought in.
And in China's group performances, although there are some professional actors from the bottom, but the actual number is very small, those students who graduated from the major let them play passerby A? Sorry, don't act! At least give a character with lines and a name!
More group performances are villagers near the film and television base, or they are snakeheads who mix up a little bit of fame in the film and television base, and then bring their hometown fathers and villagers out to be group performers, how can such people be professional?
There was no big scene on the first day, which was okay, and it passed quickly, but on the second day, as soon as the war scene came, Director Li couldn't laugh, not even laughing, he even wanted to cry!
These old hats don't even know how to form an ordinary formation, so it's harder than killing them to make a scene without going wrong!
The habit of peeking at the camera at every turn is so hateful that Director Li wants to gouge out their eyes.
But what frustrated him the most was ...... These people are not only unprofessional in acting, but also very ...... in attitude Unprofessional.
As soon as the villagers heard Director Li scolding, they immediately stopped doing it, and a man with five big and three rough men came up, pointed at Director Li, and scolded: "Hey, what are you talking about? Why are you scolding?"
Everyone immediately coaxed: "Yes, yes, don't do it, don't do it!" For a while, they all dropped the weapons in their hands, and the battlefield was suddenly full of black smoke and miasma.
Director Li hated so much that his heart was dripping blood, the crew is indeed short of people now, otherwise he would not have let such a bunch of thorns join the group, but this scene can't be stopped and not filmed, because there are so many people in the crew, everyone eats and chews, this is all money, wait one more day, that is the cost of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, the most important thing is that he must shoot some scenes these days, otherwise Liu Feier, the biggest star in the crew, will have no schedule, according to what is written in the contract, she must go to another crew to catch up with the show, then they can only shoot other scenes, and when the time comes, it will be another toss, not to mention the cost of money, but also the consumption of moraleοΌ
Film and television shooting is an industry with a collaborative division of labor, it is definitely not that a certain person can beat the world by himself, these people strike together, he really has no good way, the other party doesn't care about money, what do you care about with people? Contract? These group actors are all temporary workers, working for a day to get a day's money, if you really let Director Li sign the agreement, he won't dare, who knows what kind of goods these people are?
As a director, the authority in the crew was provoked, and Director Li was furious for a while, and he was just about to break the jar, when he heard a crisp voice like a silver bell suddenly sounded not far away: "Hey, drink water, drink water! Everyone has worked hard, drink some water to cool down!"
Liu Fei'er and the others turned their heads to look, but saw a little girl who was as beautiful as a porcelain doll squeezed in with a large box of mineral water, shouting at herself.
But don't say it, it really works, and it dilutes the scene with a strong smell of gunpowder.
Liu Fei'er also hurriedly smiled and played the round: "Yes, the weather is too hot, everyone drink some cold water to cool down." As she spoke, she smiled at the big man who was shouting for a strike: "Brother Sun, you can help and let the big guys control it, this scene has been filmed five or six times, and it's very hard for you to toss back and forth, isn't it?"
Brother Sun was very happy when he said this, and he laughed and said: "In the end, it is a big star, and it sounds good, unlike some people, who know how to make noise!" After speaking, he glared at the director.
Director Li was so angry that his nose was smoking, and he was about to have a seizure, but he saw a bottle of mineral water stuffed in front of him, but it was the little girl holding the mineral water who looked at herself with a smile.
This girl is none other than Yao Mengzhen.
She and Hao Shuai sneaked all the way, and when they were about to run out of food, they happened to meet Liu Fei'er's crew who had been pried into the corner, and the two discussed, instead of fleeing aimlessly like this, it was better to make some money incognito first, otherwise the two of them would have to sleep in the open.
It stands to reason that two delicate and beautiful young boys and girls suddenly appeared in this remote northwest, and everyone felt strange when they changed, but it was precisely because of the two of them, one was too handsome and too upright, and the other was too beautiful and too loli, so that the big guys liked them from the bottom of their hearts as soon as they met, and no one would treat them as bad people, and looking at the words and deeds of the two, they didn't look like ordinary children, hearing that they wanted to work in the crew, both Liu Feier and the director regarded them as the children of a maverick rich family to experience life.
It is precisely because of such speculation that the crew did not bully them, but took care of them.
Director Li saw the mineral water bottle handed over by Yao Mengzhen, and immediately smiled bitterly: "You ghost spirit." With that, he took the water, opened it and took a sip, then took a few breaths, and said in a loud voice: "Rest for twenty minutes, and then reshoot later, I hope everyone will cooperate well!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, no matter who the crew was, they didn't want to have a conflict, the people in the northwest were fierce, if they really started, it would not be a joke.
Liu Fei'er also breathed a sigh of relief, she took off her heavy helmet, and the assistant on the side hurriedly came over to help remove the armor, but Liu Fei'er waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I'll have to wear it again in a while, it's even more troublesome." That's it, you help me get the electric fan. β
The assistant was a young girl of twenty-three or fourteen years old, with a little freckle on the bridge of her nose, and when she heard it, she hurriedly moved an electric fan for batteries to blow at Liu Fei'er.
Liu Fei'er glanced at Yao Mengzhen, who was sending water everywhere, and then beckoned: "Hey, Xiaomeng! Come here! β
Yao Mengzhen responded crisply, sent the rest of the water, and then jumped over, and said with a smile: "Sister Fei'er, you look so good in this." β
Liu Fei'er smiled: "It's dead!"
Yao Mengzhen blinked his eyes and didn't speak, and Liu Fei'er said again: "Hey, you ghost spirit, it was a good time to appear just now!
Yao Mengzhen smiled: "It's just a coincidence." β
Liu Fei'er looked at Yao Mengzhen, and she said again: "By the way, what about the boy who is with you?"
Yao Mengzhen turned his head to look at the group performers who were heading towards the shadows, and said, "It should be inside." β
Liu Fei'er sighed and said, "Let him do some drama work with you, how tiring is it?"
Yao Mengzhen smiled and said, "This money is fast." β
Liu Fei'er looked at the opposite side, and saw a "dead corpse" crawling up on the battlefield where "corpses were everywhere" before, among which there was a tall boy who was patting the dust on his body, although it was quite far away, Liu Fei'er could still clearly see that although the other party was a little dirty, it was still a handsome and handsome face.
Even Liu Fei'er, who knows countless people, has never seen such a person of the opposite sex who can surprise her with just one face, and the most important thing is that she can faintly feel a different temperament from the other party, which is very similar to a strange person she once met.
Liu Fei'er looked at the other party and said, "You are very short of money?"
Yao Mengzhen's eyes rolled, and he pretended to be casual and said, "It's okay, it's good to get by." β
The other party's attitude of valuing both money and not valuing it made Liu Feier very puzzled, always unpredictable about the identity and origin of the other party, and the crew also guessed for a long time, most people tend to be the two of them are the rich second generation who came out to work, especially the temperament and eccentric intelligence of the superior occasionally revealed by Yao Mengzhen, which made them firm in their thoughts.
The filming in the crew is very boring, and it is not as interesting as many outsiders imagine, especially for people like Liu Fei'er who entered the industry as a child star at the age of five, the life of the crew is boring and boring, and suddenly there are Yao Mengzhen and Hao Shuai, a pair of interesting golden boys and girls, which naturally aroused Liu Feier's curiosity and attention.
Liu Fei'er wanted to talk to Hao Shuai more, ask the other party about the situation, and see if she could help them, but Hao Shuai was like a loach, slippery and didn't leave her hands, as if she hadn't heard of Liu Fei'er, China's top star, and didn't come to her at all, but ran to do any dirty work.
Two days after coming to the crew, after learning that he could get double the money for playing the dead, he immediately ran to play the "dead corpse".
After Hao Shuai patted the dust on his body, he didn't get into the crowd of performers, he walked to Yao Mengzhen in the crew very unsocially, and from a distance, he shouted at Yao Mengzhen: "Everyone has water, but I don't! Do you want to die of thirst for me, or do you want to die of thirst for me?"
Listening to these words with a bit of a lazy tone, Liu Fei'er's smart eyes became more and more curious, and she smiled and said: "Xiaoshuai, what are you not good at, you want to play a dead man, it doesn't taste good, right?"
If it was in the past, Hao Shuai was afraid that he would circle around Liu Fei'er like a monkey in the sky, but after experiencing so many extraordinary things, how could Hao Shuai, who killed the water god with his own hands, make a fuss because he saw a star?
Hao Shuai said with a smile: "How can it, I don't know how comfortable it is, go to the ground, sleep and make money, how easy it is." β
Liu Fei'er couldn't cry or laugh: "You're not afraid of the heat?"
Hao Shuai laughed and said: "You guys are also hot? You are standing in the sun, I am lying in the sun, in comparison, I think I am much easier!
Liu Fei'er covered her mouth and laughed: "Do you want to be a corpse professional?"
Hao Shuai doesn't treat Liu Fei'er as a big star and talks with her casually, but it is not the same thing in the eyes of others.
Soon, trouble came.
