Chapter 127 "Detective Chinatown" is being filmed
Speaking of it, although the movie "Detective Chinatown" has been promoting Cao Qing as the male protagonist, in fact, no matter from which point of view, the movie "Detective Chinatown" is an absolute dual-male protagonist movie.

It's just because Wei Xiang, who played the role of Tang Ren in "Detective Chinatown", is too unknown, and his appearance is not handsome enough, and he is not attractive at all, so the movie "Detective Chinatown" is being promoted to the outside world At present, we can only describe Tang Ren played by Wei Xiang as a supporting role, so as not to dispel the desire of some audiences to enter the cinema to buy tickets.

At this point, no matter in the era when Hong Kong movies were rampant in the past, or in the next ten years or so, there are quite a few movies that are doing this. is too big.

Just like Shen Teng, the box office king more than ten years later, how many plots he has in a movie can directly determine the amount of traffic at the beginning of a movie. The content of these movies is the success of the box office. decisive switch.

Therefore, although it is in Cao Qing's version or Chen Sicheng's original version of "Detective Chinatown", Tang Ren is the absolute protagonist in terms of the story alone.

However, because Tang Ren in Chen Sicheng's version of "Detective Chinatown" was played by Wang Baoqiang, who was very famous at the time, and Cao Qing's version of Tang Ren was played by the unknown Wei Xiang, so the promotional protagonists of these two versions One became Tang Ren and the other became Qin Feng.

However, although Cao Qing's version of "Detective Chinatown" promotes himself as the main character, in fact, Tang Ren is more of the camera lens. The Qin Feng played by Tang Ren (Wei Xiang) has far fewer scenes.

In addition, in the entire "Detective Chinatown" movie, the only supporting roles that can leave a deep impression on the audience are the heroine Ah Xiang played by Dong Xuan, the girl Sinuo played by Bai Bing, and the policeman. The two team leaders Huang Landeng (Huang Bo) and Kun Tai (Xiao Yang), as well as the real murderer in the play, Sinuo's adoptive father Li (Pan Yueming), these five roles.

Among the five supporting roles, especially Quintai played by Xiao Yang and the girl Sinuo played by Bai Bing are the most brilliant and have personal charm, which can greatly enhance the actor's reputation.

For this reason, as early as when Xiao Yang joined "Detective Chinatown", Cao Qing seemed to have taken down Baibing, Pan Yueming, and Dong Xuan, and directly signed a C-level artist contract, becoming Cao Qing's subordinate. staff.

But speaking of it, Cao Qing's first consideration for the role of Sinuo's adoptive father and perverted murderer Li in the movie "Detective Chinatown" was originally the old actor Li Ming. After all, Pan Yueming starred in the original "Detective Chinatown". When the movie "Case" was released, he was already a powerful actor with mature enough acting skills.

But Pan Yueming, who is in this age group, is not only under 30 years old, completely incompatible with the role image of the middle-aged uncle Sinuo's adoptive father and perverted murderer Li in the movie, but also has only officially entered the film and television industry for two or three years. It is also really difficult for him to control the role of a perverted murderer with a distorted personality in terms of acting skills.

After all, such a complex and distorted character, let alone Pan Yueming, a fledgling rookie, is difficult to control, even many famous actors can hardly successfully interpret that abnormal taste.

Only Li Ming, the clown actor loved by many directors, who can even successfully reverse gender and play the essence of Qiu Qianchi in Zhang Jizhong's version of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" four years later, only needs to go there. Station, you can successfully deduce the taste of a perverted murderer.

However, when Cao Qing was planning to invite Li Ming to play the role of the perverted murderer, Li Ming happened to have several film offers in his hand, unless Cao Qing was willing to pay the liquidated damages for him and persuade him to be willing to play for the perverted murderer. The role of Li has lost credibility in the industry, otherwise he will not be able to make room for the role until at least November.

In such a helpless situation, after careful calculation of the cost, Cao Qing had to give up Li Ming and instead chose Pan Yueming, who was young and lacked fame, to star.

And even so, even though Cao Qing's current reputation is so great, and Pan Yueming is still just a completely insignificant young actor, but he still hesitated for a long time about Cao Qing's invitation, and finally, under the pressure Cao Qing gave He reluctantly agreed.

After all, it is different from the middle-aged Pan Yueming who was forced to enter the trough of his life because of the unjust case and was forced to enter the trough of his life after ten years. He is still young and full of energy at the age of 26, and he is full of hope for the future. .

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't control Cao Qing's thighs, Pan Yueming would honestly not want to take on the role of such a twisted and perverted murderer.

After all, this choice is too easy for those audiences who have watched the movie "Detective Chinatown" to directly stereotype him, completely restricting his acting career and ruining his future as an idol actor.

However, although he was a little reluctant when invited by Cao Qing, Pan Yueming, as a professional actor, still has actor ethics.

As long as it is the role he takes, no matter what he thinks in his heart before taking the role, when playing this role, Pan Yueming will definitely do his best to perform.

In the filming location of "Detective Chinatown", Pan Yueming wore a fake beard, an old crumpled white shirt, and a black peaked cap. His skin color was blurred by the make-up crew of "Detective Chinatown" to imitate the general skin color of Thai people Some of it was slightly black, and the originally black and straight long hair was deliberately messed up and made a little greasy by the makeup crew.

Seeing the completely changed Pan Yueming in front of him, even Cao Qing, who personally invited Pan Yueming to play the role of the perverted murderer Li, couldn't help but compare him with the previous butter boy Pan Yueming for a while. The name draws an equal sign in my mind.

When it came to the actual shooting stage, Pan Yueming's acting skills were even better.

Although at the beginning of the filming, he was somewhat unable to grasp the specific mentality of the perverted murderer Li when he faced his adopted daughter, but after Cao Qing continued to tell him the specifics of the role of Sinuo's adoptive father and the murderer Li. After the psychological change, he quickly managed to grasp the inner emotional changes of this dark villain, and the emotional changes in the pupils of the eyes were quite gloomy.

Even the photographer who was solely responsible for photographing the emotional changes in his eyes couldn't help feeling his scalp tingle when he saw the changes in his eyes, and felt that Pan Yueming standing in front of him looked like a real murderer.

Soon, as the filming of the murderer Li came to the final stage, that is, when he took care of his adopted daughter Sinuo in the hospital but was approached by Qin Feng and Tang Ren, Pan Yueming's performance was even more thorough. It shocked the entire "Detective Chinatown" crew.

When he spoke to Sinuo (Bai Bing) at the end, his expression and attitude were really gentle and nostalgic, to the point of being in love to a morbid level.

And when he broke away from this morbid emotion of looking at his adopted daughter Sinuo and instead smashed open the hospital glass and directly chose to jump off the high-rise building of the hospital, the emotions in his eyes changed countless times, completely reaching a kind of Cao Qing, who was squatting behind the camera monitor, was shocked by the level of acting at the actor's level.

"Awesome, Xiao Pan."

"Although as early as when I invited you to come and play the role of Sinuo's adoptive father and the murderer Li, I thought you were probably very suitable for this role, and there was a high probability that you would be able to perform this role well."

"But one thing I really didn't expect was that you were able to grasp the role of Sinuo's adoptive father and murderer Li so quickly, and perfectly interpret the inner emotions of this character whose personality has been completely distorted. "

"I have to say, in terms of acting skills, your performance really exceeded my expectations."

"Little Pan, it seems that I can consider giving you a regular role in my future movies, haha!"

Looking at Pan Yueming not far away, who was gradually withdrawing from the role of Sinuo's adoptive father and murderer Li, Cao Qing laughed and stood up from behind the camera monitor, walked up to him and spoke in a particularly warm tone. road.

Hearing Cao Qing's words, Pan Yueming, who had just escaped from his emotions, was immediately filled with joy. He looked at Cao Qing in front of him, and responded with excitement.

"Thank you for the cultivation of the director! I will definitely work harder to improve my acting skills in the future!"

Nodding his head, Cao Qing showed a gentle smile to Pan Yueming who was always excited in front of him.

Although it was difficult for Cao Qing to say too much to him in person due to the many people around him, he still patted Pan Yueming on the shoulder, and said in a very meaningful tone:

"It's not that I cultivated you, but that you are worthy of it."

"For an actor who has always been working hard in filming, I certainly have reasons to give him a little help so that he can grow up faster."

After saying these words, Cao Qing, who has developed a lot of leadership skills in the company's management career in the past few years, did not wait for Pan Yueming to express his loyalty to himself again, and turned directly to the surrounding crew who were watching The staff laughed out loud:
"Of course, it's not just Pan Yueming, and it's not just the hard-working protagonists in our "Detective Chinatown" crew. What really makes our crew shoot so fast is all the staff of our "Detective Chinatown" crew."

"After all, without your help, without your concerted efforts and sincere cooperation with the cast and crew, in this unfamiliar foreign land, the filming process of our "Detective Chinatown" crew would not have been like this anyway. fast."

"For this reason, I decided to wait for a while after we finish filming this film and everyone will return to China. I will not only invite all the staff of our crew to participate in the wrap-up banquet, but also give all the staff of our crew a package. The last big red envelope."

"So, in the future, I would like to ask everyone to speed up their efforts together and try to make it possible for all of us to go home faster, so that all of us can be happy and celebrate together in China!"

After finishing the words in his mouth, Cao Qing even thanked the crew members around him earnestly, with a very sincere and gentle attitude.

Faced with Cao Qing's actions, not only the crew around Cao Qing felt quite flattered, but even the cast and crew felt a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry, Director Cao! Whether it's for your big red envelope or to get home as soon as possible, we will definitely work hard."

Soon, after hearing the humble and gentle words of Cao Qing, the top director in Huaguo, although most of the crew members were a little embarrassed and didn't know how to reply, a few of them were bold , after only two or three seconds of silence, he cheekily spoke to Cao Qing.

"Hahahaha, yes, everyone is welcome to work together!"

Hearing that someone in the crowd around him began to respond to his words, Cao Qing laughed and responded with a very gentle tone.

Seeing Cao Qing's gentle attitude, among the actors and staff around him who were not too embarrassed to speak up, more and more people gradually began to boldly respond to his words.

Among this group of people, especially Pan Yueming, who had just been praised by Cao Qingren, after suppressing the turbulent emotions in his heart, he interjected with a smile on his face:
"Director Cao, although I, Pan Yueming, may not be very eloquent, but after listening to Director Cao's words, I feel that I am full of energy, and I wish I could devote myself to acting immediately. "

"Hey, Director Cao, let's shoot the movie right away, so that our crew can finish the movie and go home to live a relaxing life."

Pan Yueming's timely interjection made the atmosphere of the entire filming set more active. Everyone began to chat around Cao Qing, discussing the things that should be paid attention to in the next filming.
