muscle actor

Chapter 242
The hardest thing about acting is the sense of proportion!
Especially acting in life!
Are you playing a role?
or yourself?
The next day, I changed scenes and came to the office to meet the legendary Sammo Hung and Tsui Hark, as well as Fatty Bonayu.

As expected of Liu Tianwang, the two of them came to guest roles after a phone call. The protagonist is a well-known producer who solves various problems. This scene is to show the plot of daily work.

"This is what you said if the budget is exceeded!"

"What else can I do? What can I do?"

"I told you a long time ago not to let you use so many shots and special effects. Now the audience is tired of watching it. What's the use..."

"I am the director or you are the director?"

Ding Cheng saw that the two big men wanted to scold, so he hurriedly smoothed things over in the middle, trying to make sense of all kinds of things, and finally got it done, sweating from exhaustion.

Finally, he pulled Fatty Yu aside and said in a low voice, "Do you think you want to invest more?"

As soon as the camera turned, at the dinner table, I chatted happily with two big men who were blushing and thick-necked just now, raised their glasses to respect Sammo Hung and said, "Your acting is getting better and better."

"No, no, it's still true that Old Freak Xu is acting."

"Hey, it's not easy being a director!"

Old Monster Xu took the opportunity to complain: "Making a movie is like giving birth to a child. There is no money, no energy, and the one born is a biochemical person."

Ding Cheng patted the other party's shoulder, and explained: "I understand, in short, live within our means, okay?"

"Come on, drink!"

After a scene, leave the contact information of the two big shots, and look for opportunities to cooperate.

The next plot is that Sister Tao suddenly fainted and was sent to the hospital to find out that she has Alzheimer's disease. She is no longer suitable for living alone for a long time, and she must be accompanied by someone.

"Hey, there are many people playing with me in the nursing home..."

"Just visit me often..."

"Amao also brought it there, don't worry!"

Sister Tao held her hand, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and her eyes seemed calm, but in fact, she was helpless and even blamed herself.

Taking care of the young master's family for 60 years,
Now I can't do it anymore.

Actually let others take care of themselves?
Then I went to nursing homes, the expensive ones cost more than 1 yuan, and the cheap ones cost four to five thousand yuan. Money is not a problem, the main thing is that it is close to home.

The scene selection directly requisitioned the home of the prototype character, the room where Sister Tao lived, the used wooden box, the vegetable market she walked through, the sofa table she often sat on...

There were almost half a month of filming in the nursing home, basically with hidden cameras. Many elderly people did not know that there was a crew filming there from the beginning to the end, and tried their best to disturb the lives of the elderly as little as possible.

"This is the most leisurely group I've ever seen!" Having lunch at noon, Ding Cheng smiled and said to Xu Anhua: "The filming started at 9:17 in the morning and finished at [-]:[-] in the evening. Everyone filmed together. There were only two machines... ..."

Xu Anhua said helplessly: "To communicate, to tell them how to act is also disturbing, and I am also very embarrassed."

Everyone laughed. The day before yesterday, there was a festival scene to be filmed. Volunteers brought pet dogs to visit the elderly. Even if it was a scene that needed a lot of extras.

Most of them acted in their own colors, and there were eight people from the old people's troupe who brought their dogs to play. Most of the old people really regarded it as a normal holiday visit.

All films, whether they are commercial or artistic, like to exaggerate, elevate, distort, and deform, the purpose is to shock the audience.

And Xu Anhua is always doing subtraction, a detail that impressed Ding Cheng the most: Some waiters helped the elderly to take a bath, and an elderly could not stand up to wash, but had to sit, when he rolled up his trousers, revealing a pair of skinny feet...

There is no muscle at all, the skin of the calf is wrapped around the calf bone, and someone else rubs alcohol on him...

Shocking!

"You need to relax a little more..."

"Yes, it's this kind of feeling that makes the character's humanity fully revealed, full of humanity..."

"What does it feel like to be home? Isn't it just to be relaxed, take off the mask, and be free..."

Ding Cheng kept softening himself, he was an all-powerful producer outside, chatting and laughing in front of the media.

When I got home, I was exhausted, and only in front of Sister Tao could I show my true self.

There is no need to be tense anymore, you can reach out for tea, open your mouth for food, brood over your own worries, crave beef tongue, or be at a loss...

Experience the ordinary life with the gentle breeze and calm water, and feel the long-lasting feelings of the years in the life-like performance like the breeze blowing. How the years go by, the wind blows...

For example, the ox tongue scene was discovered in the refrigerator after a lapse of many days. Sister Tao, who insisted on not letting herself eat ox tongue, had already cooked the pot secretly, and it was discovered by the gangsters...

Huang Qiusheng is not only the owner of the old people's home, but also a helper in retrieving the old house. The free interaction and friendly friendship when old friends meet, just like living at home...

When Sister Tao was afraid of dragging herself down and said she wanted to live in a nursing home...

When Sister Tao dug out the things she had kept for a lifetime to herself, rambling...

When I was holding Sister Tao and walking on the road...

When Sister Tao felt that dentures were expensive and was angry that she didn't want to spend the money herself...

Calmly expressing a very ordinary thing through the lens without excessive modification, like expressing something that has nothing to do with her, but poking the softness in the heart of the heart in small details.

When Sister Tao showed a reluctance to leave when she returned home for the first time after being hospitalized...

When Sister Tao knew that Qin Pei was looking for Shampoo Girl and said to go, just go, how long can she go and give him money...

When Sister Tao knew that time was running out and still smiled and amused herself...

When I pushed Sister Tao until she was dripping with sweat, she shook half of her body and said that I want to eat jelly...

All the small scenes are what happened to ordinary people, the empathy, and the gestures are so kind and familiar.

Sister Tao's figure all recalls the audience's memory of the old people, afraid of troublesome children, endless kindness to children and grandchildren, taking care of children in every possible way...

And what about themselves?

When we were young, we walked together hand in hand after dinner in the summer, and always secretly gave her some precious things, so we should keep them well...

When sleeping together in winter, I always put cold feet on their laps, making a hissing sound but reluctant to take them off...

I am afraid that my children will be impatient, so I never make a sound when I am sick, and I never ask...

Suddenly one day, they found out that they, who have always walked vigorously and vigorously, had barely walked with crutches at some point!
