Chapter 61 Official Shooting
October NO.13, avoid breaking ground, avoid getting married, start work, and travel.

On this day, Cao Qing, along with the manager of the Lisboa Hotel, personally sent the reporters who had been comfortable all night last night to the return plane.

In the airport, Cao Qing didn't have any airs to hang out with this large group of reporters, and warmly invited them to come here again after a few months, when his second movie "The Hangover" was about to be released. Participate in a press conference.

Regarding Cao Qing's invitation, all of these reporters, male or female, who had spent a lot of time last night, answered quite happily.

There is eating, drinking and playing, and the room is very comfortable at night. No one would dislike such an interview task.

As for the unanimous agreement of these interviewing reporters, Cao Qing was also very satisfied after looking at the manager of the Lisboa Hotel.

"Director Cao, you told me yesterday that you need to borrow two beautiful waitresses from our hotel during the filming process. I don't know when you need them?"

"To tell you the truth, all the beautiful waiters in our hotel are in high demand. They are not only hotel waiters, but also part-time jobs to accompany them. Every day, there are a lot of customers asking for them. Accompanying, if Director Cao wants to borrow their time for a long time, I have to make special arrangements."

On the way back after sending the journalists to the plane, looking at Cao Qing in the back seat of the vehicle who was resting with his eyes closed, the handsome middle-aged manager of the Lisboa Hotel turned his head from the co-pilot and said a little embarrassedly road.

Lying on his back on the leather seat in the back row of the car, Cao Qing was resting his eyes with his eyes closed, when he suddenly heard the handsome manager of the Lisboa Hotel in the front row talking to him, he gently opened his eyelids, and his tone was slightly ponderous for a few seconds .

"It won't be borrowed for too long, about one day. They will appear at the end of the movie as easter eggs and extras. If Manager Lin doesn't mind, you can also be included."

The tone of the answer was very affirmative. Cao Qing just calculated the specific shooting plan in his mind for a while, and then gave the answer to Manager Lin who was sitting in the front row.

Hearing Cao Qing's words, the hotel manager surnamed Lin who was sitting in the front row of the car was obviously moved. He shrugged and said in a half-joking tone:

"If you are sure that my appearance will not affect your filming, I think I have no problem. After all, who can refuse an opportunity to have their image appear on the big screen of a movie."

Hearing the answer from the hotel manager surnamed Lin, Cao Qing smiled, gave him a good look, and then continued to close his eyes and meditate.

Although the manager surnamed Lin did not appear in the original shooting plan in Cao Qing, but the other party, as a good target who just completed a good deal with him, should give him some face.

After all, even though he was just a messenger of the boss behind the Lisboa Hotel, Cao Qing finally reached an agreement to use a movie advertisement to save Cao Qing and his party from being in the Lisboa Hotel through dialogue and communication with him. This deal is all spent in the hotel.

This transaction alone easily saved Cao Qing's filming costs of about 40 yuan. With this alone, Cao Qing had to remember him as a favor.

The vehicle was moving forward steadily, and Cao Qing closed his eyes for about a quarter of an hour to rest his mind. The Mercedes Benz 320 he was riding in, which was specially used to pick up and drop off guests at the Lisboa Hotel, had already returned to the hotel parking lot smoothly.

After getting out of the car, Cao Qing didn't greet the manager surnamed Lin who got off at the same time too much. He still had a lot of things to do, so he just dealt with a few words and went straight back to the hotel.

Taking the elevator to the top floor of the Lisboa Hotel, following a beautiful waitress, Cao Qing walked briskly to the presidential suite assigned to him on this floor.

Entering the door, the room was full of members of the crew of "The Hangover", Huang Bo, Sun Honglei, Liu Yijun, Yan Danchen, Yin Tao and others were all inside.

But even though they were all in the room, the group of them did not stand together completely.

Together with the crew members in the room, they gathered together in twos and threes according to their own habitual small circles, chatting about their own affairs, and did not pay much attention to each other.

"Keep everyone waiting for a long time, all the friends of the film crew, everyone should clean up the venue now, and then get ready to start filming."

"Our film crew negotiated with this hotel for only half a month to rent. After half a month, we have to spend a huge amount of money every day. The shooting time is limited. Don't waste time, everyone, hurry up and get your seats."

After entering the room, Cao Qing first smiled and greeted the group of people in the room, and then he was quite worried that the shooting time was over, so he didn't chat too much.

After he entered the room, he only spent half an hour to turn on the phone, worship the gods, arrange the venue, and then directly started his second filming.

The movie starts with the first shot, the scene in the original movie where the trio wake up together in a hotel after a night of partying.

Regarding this group of shots, the first shot is about Sun Honglei, who plays the role of Allen, the brother-in-law of the protagonist Doug in the original movie, that is, the fat man with no brains.

Originally, at the very beginning, Cao Qing planned to hand over this role to Huang Bo, because Huang Bo can actually play this kind of role quite well, and the black skin in the crazy stone is the representative.

But after a lot of trial and error, Cao Qing found helplessly that if he handed over the role of Allen to Huang Bo, the role of the dentist Stu in the original movie would be a bit confusing.

Although he believes in Sun Honglei's acting skills, most of the actors are compatible with each other in terms of roles. No matter how good their acting skills are, they can easily fail in front of a role that is not suitable for them.

Just like the role of the dentist Stu in this "The Hangover" movie, his character in the original movie is an ostrich, an honest man, and even a little bit of a bitch. You let Sun Honglei play this kind of role, with his kind It looks a bit silly and silly on the outside, and it can definitely be acted out.

But if you ask him to play the role of Allen, who has no brains and is quite crazy when he does things, then he will have a bit of a hard time. It's easy to overplay this kind of crazy and foolishness, and even act like a real fool.

And this kind of feeling is not what Cao Qing wants. What he wants is a special type of idiot who lacks brains but can be used at critical moments, not a real big idiot.

It was because of this consideration that after a group discussion among Cao Qing and Huang Bo, Huang Bo was finally given the role of the mentally handicapped brother-in-law among the four starring roles in the film, and Sun Honglei was the honest dentist. play.

As for the remaining two main roles, the groom and the unreliable handsome teacher, they were handed over to Liu Yijun and Cao Qing.

Of course, because of the problem of appearance, the role of the handsome teacher in the movie should be played by Cao Qing, and Liu Yijun played the groom Doug in the original movie.

……

"When you're filming, drink some wine first. You've read the whole script. You should know what kind of hangover I want."

"Remember, don't really get drunk, just take a few sips. What I need for this scene is your fascinated expression."

Hearing what Cao Qing said, Huang Bo patted his chest, and said in a serious tone:

"No problem, boss, don't worry, I used to be drunk by the guests when I was singing. This feeling of waking up with a hangover after being drunk is too familiar."

"Others say that you let me drink a few sips of wine to find my feelings, even if you don't let me drink, I can still act."

Smiling and patted Huang Bo's shoulder, Cao Qing had nothing to say about his experience that he didn't know whether it was sad or a story.

After explaining to Huang Bo, Cao Qing walked up to Sun Honglei, patted him on the shoulder in the same way as he did to Huang Bo, and said:
"Red Radium, you have also read the script, and you were the No.1 in the Chinese drama back then. I believe you should know how to perform it. I won't say more if there is any extra. Anyway, let's work hard together."

He didn't communicate with Sun Honglei too much, but only lightly explained a few words to him, and Cao Qing stopped talking.

For Sun Honglei, after nearly a year of getting along, Cao Qing still knows a lot about him.

Sun Honglei, as the No.1 in Chinese opera back then, has always been very good in professional skills. Even though he has not appeared in many works now, as long as his attitude is good, it is very important for him to play a hangover state well. Really simple.

As for the attitude, everyone is currently in the same company and has shares in each other. As an ambitious person with a brain who wants to make progress, Cao Qing believes that Sun Honglei must understand that only in the next movie can his future be determined. will be brighter.

Even without mentioning any professional ethics issues, just based on this alone, Cao Qing believes that Sun Honglei will definitely do his best in the next acting process, and he does not need to worry about this.

After communicating with Huang Bo and Sun Honglei, the two leading actors who are about to be filmed, Cao Qing seriously communicated with the photographers and lighting engineers in the room. After confirming that everything was ok, Cao Qing looked around the room with a serious face. All crew members took a look and shouted loudly: "Start filming!"
