After the filming was completed, I awakened my superpowers
Chapter 77 The Magician Crew! Is the start so exciting?
The next day.
Sheng Yixia spent the whole day reading scripts, figuring out the characters, writing character biographies, and constantly trying to step into the role of the magician Zhao Xingyao.
The more he thought about it, the more interesting he felt that this character was, and there was still a lot to explore.
As Sister Zhang Qing said, once an actor fits a certain role, the more he thinks about it, the more excited he becomes, feeling that this is the incarnation of his ideal.
When Sheng Yixia was a child, in addition to her dream of being a scientist, she also thought that she was the kind of thief who came and went without a trace, robbing the rich and giving to the poor, playing in the world of mortals, letting the world spread his legendary deeds, but hiding his merits and fame. .
That's why.
Sheng Yixia felt that if he thought about it carefully and acted well, he should be able to bring the magician Zhao Xingyao to life. Coupled with the popularity, cast and director of this Internet drama, maybe he could really pull out the role card.
When he thought of the character cards, Sheng Yixia became even more attentive. He thought over and over again about the plot and lines related to Zhao Xingyao, and used a red pen to record any areas that were not smooth or awkward.
Another day passed.
Zhang Qing came to pick up Sheng Yixia early in the morning.
After he got in the car, he realized that Gu Yonghan, Yu Zi, and Chi Yu were already in the car. Zhang Qing was probably the last one to pick him up because he wanted Sheng Yixia to rest for a while.
Everyone chatted along the way, and time flew by.
Sheng Yixia also took the opportunity to chat with Brother Gu about the script, and shared with him some of the things he couldn't understand. Gu Yonghan was indeed an experienced actor, and he could reveal the plot with just a few sentences.
In fact, the screenwriter of this big movie is also very powerful. He is a big shot in the industry. His plot design is interlocking, and the transition is very neat. There are also various exciting points. At the beginning, Zhao Xingyao was on Huang Laocai's side. Playing a trick of stealing the beam and changing the pillar.
It also foreshadows and establishes the framework and tone of the entire play.
The ending is both reasonable and unexpected.
All in all this is a good drama.
She was countless times better than the bionic girlfriend he saw at the beginning.
This is the skill of some professional screenwriters who have made great achievements, and it is definitely much better than his Sheng Yixia.
More than an hour later.
The car arrived at the Magic City of the Republic of China Film and Television City.
Everyone gathered with the crew, and Zhang Qing left directly with Chi Yu to run projects elsewhere.
She is a very negative mother-in-law now, and her enthusiasm for work has been greatly improved.
The management, producers, production team and main actors completed a ceremonial opening ceremony under the auspices of producer Yu Haiyang.
It was also the first time that Sheng Yixia stood closer to the middle in the group photo during the opening ceremony, second only to the male lead He Yunqiu, and the female lead Xiong Yike, standing on both sides of them together with the second female lead.
After the ceremony.
Yu Haiyang distributed startup red envelopes to everyone.
As expected, the crew of an online major with a capital of 20 million yuan are extremely wealthy. Sheng Yixia actually received a 500 yuan boot-up red envelope and a scratch card. However, after scratching it off, it seemed that he didn't even win 5 yuan. .
And everyone was happily socializing with each other, chatting, and increasing their prestige, and the atmosphere was relaxed.
"Hello, Brother He." Sheng Yixia also smiled and took the initiative to say hello to the male protagonist He Yunqiu.
"Yixia, you are welcome." He Yunqiu held Sheng Yixia's hand tightly and said with a smile, "I heard about your wonderful performance in the audition. Let's keep in touch when we have time. , let’s have a drink together.”
He Yunqiu is in his mid-twenties. He is a serious actor who has graduated from Beijing Film Academy. He has also starred in the third male lead in major theater movies with good results. He has good acting skills, outstanding appearance, and has a lot of fans.
In terms of all aspects of his qualifications, they far surpass those of Sheng Yixia.
Sheng Yixia heard that He Yunqiu's salary for starring in this film was two million, and after sales exceeded 20 million, there would be a 1% dividend.
"Absolutely." Sheng Yixia's attitude was also relatively low, "I also want to learn acting from a professional actor like Brother He, so don't bother me when the time comes.
?
"How come? Haha, you are welcome to come to me to talk about acting at any time." He Yunqiu smiled very easily.
After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, they dispersed and continued socializing.
"Hello, Teacher Xiong." Sheng Yixia caught the female lead, Xiong Yike, and went up to say hello politely.
In the entertainment industry, sometimes just having money is not enough. If Sheng Yixia wants to rely on the entertainment industry to develop his superpowers, he still has to constantly expand his network of contacts.
Only when you encounter a suitable opportunity can you directly organize and shoot the film you want.
"No, no, no, no..." Xiong Yike, who looked very delicate and had a charming temperament, quickly smiled and waved her hands and said, "I am a few years older than you, you should call me Sister Yike."
"Okay, hello, Sister Yike." Sheng Yixia said hello again, "I've watched several of your movies, and I'm your fan."
"How about you, Yi Xia." Xiong Yike shook hands with him with a smile, his eyes shining brightly, "I have also watched your King of Chefs, and everyone said that you are a real chef and the heir to the intangible cultural heritage of the pastry industry. "
At first glance, he looks like a comrade from the Big Foodie Empire.
"Haha, the rumors are a bit exaggerated, but I do know how to make Chinese pastries." Sheng Yixia said with a smile, "If I have a chance, I will bring some over after I make them for everyone to try and give me some advice." "
But I'm thinking to myself, one day when everyone gets tired of running around, I'll treat you to Xiao Long Steamed Buns, and strive to bring this film to a new level.
In a sense, Sheng Yixia most hopes that this film will become a hit.
This pure thought is stronger than that of the management and production side.
After all, they were just in it for the money and fame, and he was in it for the superpowers!
"Okay, okay." Xiong Yike nodded happily.
Subsequently.
Sheng Yixia socialized with other cast members, including the second female lead, the third male lead, and other supporting actors.
After a warm conversation.
This is today’s opening scene.
At this time.
The assistant director trotted over and informed Sheng Yixia, "Teacher Yixia, please go put on makeup first and prepare for the opening scene."
"Ah this——"
Sheng Yixia pointed at her nose in confusion: "Shall I play the opening scene?"
Normally.
The opening scenes of the crew are usually scenes with male protagonists and female protagonists, and they are basically relatively simple dramas. On the one hand, they can bring good luck, and on the other hand, it also facilitates everyone to get into the mood more smoothly.
"——" The assistant director also said with some embarrassment, "This, that, is Director Chen's intention, you should hurry up and put on makeup.
,
Director Chen?
Sheng Yixia looked at Director Chen from a distance.
As expected, Director Chen also looked at Sheng Yixia with a smile, raised the thermos cup in his hand, and gave an encouraging smile and eyes.
Damn it.
Sheng Yixia knew that Chen Laoden had suffered a bad loss in the audition incident and might give him some shoes afterwards.
But I didn’t expect the shoes to come so quickly.
But on the set, the director is the authority.
Especially a director with great achievements like Director Chen, who is a master of one thing. In terms of how to direct a film and grasp the content, even the producer Yu Haiyang cannot be tough with him.
Sheng Yixia could only go to put on makeup and study the first scene he was going to shoot again.
It was an action scene, in which Huang Laocai led his servants to hunt down Sheng Yixia after being deceived.
And Sheng Yixia used her outstanding skills to run flexibly and avoid the pursuit.
It can be said that Chen Laoden obviously had bad intentions in filming such a difficult chase and escape martial arts scene at the beginning.
After Sheng Yixia put on makeup and returned to the set, the scene for the first scene was ready and all the camera crews were in place.
Because this is the film and television base of the Republic of China, there are many buildings with the flavor of the Republic of China. In many cases, it can be shot directly in real scenes without the need for a green screen. However, in fact, this only increases the difficulty of the scene.
This kind of chase and escape scene must fit the environment of the scene and adapt to local conditions.
And Director Chen.
While he was drinking tea leisurely, he saw Sheng Yixia coming back after putting on makeup. He didn't even raise his eyelids: "Teacher Yixia is ready, let's start."
Ah this!
Sheng Yixia was completely confused. Has Lao Deng lost his mind?
You didn’t even tell him about the scene, but about the storyboard and precautions, right? The script he just saw was just the original script.
Is it possible that the storyboard script is with the assistant director?
Is he responsible for telling the drama?
Sheng Yixia looked at the assistant director. The assistant director was also confused. He didn't receive the instruction to tell the story at all.
"Ahem."
Sheng Yixia bit the bullet and said, "Director Chen, how should I act in this play?"
"ah·.·
Director Chen chuckled from deep in his throat, took a sip of tea from his tea cup, and then said slowly, "With Teacher Yixia's level, do you still need me to guide you? When you were auditioning, that scene was... Self-written and directed, the performance is wonderful. ”
"In this scene, you just have to watch your own performance."
Damn it, this Lao Deng - even wearing small shoes for him is so grand, without any hesitation.
The scene was also silent.
No one dared to overturn Director Chen's decision.
Even Yu Haiyang only frowned slightly and said nothing.
He is also a veteran, and he knows that although Lao Chen's move is more straightforward and naked, it is also a necessary means of controlling his subordinates.
If he couldn't kill Sheng Yixia's arrogance, it would be difficult for him to start his next work.
As long as Sheng Yixia suffers a loss and sincerely bows his head to Lao Chen and surrenders, Lao Chen will definitely not embarrass him again with his not-so-strong personality.
"Director Chen, isn't this bad?" Sheng Yixia was also angry, but there was a look of embarrassment on her face.
"What's wrong?" Director Chen said with a smile, "When it comes to young people, especially young people who have the ability, I always advocate giving them more opportunities so that they can shine more."
"Teacher Ichika, let's start quickly, don't waste everyone's time."
"By the way, the camera crew, lighting crew, and supporting actors can all be under your command. Lao Zhao, please help Teacher Dian Yixia and don't let him get in trouble."
Director Chen has a very helpful and helpful tone. In fact, he has already made up his mind. When you Sheng Yixia's performance fails and you have no choice but to ask him for help, he will slowly draw out the excellent storyboard script that he has designed. Throw him in the face.
Tell him, young man, you are still too immature.
From now on, I will study hard and humbly with your director Chen.
Of course, he only dared to do this because Zhang Qing was not around. Otherwise, he would really not dare to fight with Zhang Qing face to face.
"Okay." Sheng Yixia looked like he was in a dilemma and could only go ahead with his head held high, but before he knew it, he had already started to use his mind, and the surrounding terrain and environment were reflected in his brain one by one.
With the experience of using Qinggong Cards during this period, he quickly planned a suitable route in his mind.
Afterwards, he first actively communicated with the action group actors and Teacher Tian who played Huang Laocai, and found paper and pen to draw, designed actions for them, and used the scriptwriter's lines.
Then, he communicated with the assistant director Lao Zhao again, asking him to arrange the position and function of the camera crew according to his own schematic diagram. As for the lighting, he was not familiar with it, so he asked the assistant director to communicate with him.
After the assistant director saw Sheng Yixia's design, he was completely confused.
This, this thing, isn't it the legendary one-shot?
Where did Sheng Yixia learn this from?
However, if he really asked this question, Sheng Yixia would definitely answer him. Didn't he learn it from the domineering director of the detective Yan Xiayi? Lao Deng is now addicted to one-shot shooting, and he always shoots it.
Even when shooting a short promotional video for him, he has to shoot it in one shot.
Sheng Yixia now subconsciously feels that action shots like this should be shot in one shot. If they are not shot in one shot, it feels wrong and unnatural.
Director Chen at this time obviously has not realized the seriousness of the matter.
He continued to half-close his eyes, slowly drinking the tea in the thermos cup, and his fingers tapped the armrests of the chair rhythmically, as if he was immersed in a certain dramatic melody.
"Director Zhao, please direct the lighting and camera crew."
Until this time.
Assistant Director Lao Zhao finally came back to his senses from his trance. With a dazed look on his face, he looked at Sheng Yixia solemnly and said, "I have no problem with this. I will definitely not let you down. However, are your actions too difficult?"
"I think it's okay. If it doesn't work once, just do it again." Sheng Yixia smiled modestly.
"Okay, then do it as you say." Assistant Director Lao Zhao was very cooperative.
Soon.
The preparations were ready.
The actors and the camera crew, the tracks were all in place.
The assistant director also perked up and shouted, "Action!"
The veteran actor Huang Youcai immediately entered the state, panting and pointing at Sheng Yixia and scolding angrily, "It was this kid who deceived me. Not to mention changing his clothes, even if he turned into ashes, I would recognize him! Catch him for me.
I want to break his five legs!"
With an order.
A group of farm guards rushed towards Sheng Yixia.
These are all action extras, more or less, they all have some skills, and they are as fierce as wolves and tigers.
"Haha, Huang Laocai, you really suffered a loss and still don't learn your lesson. Don't blame me for emptying your house later." Sheng Yixia was not panicked when he saw this. After a joking ridicule, he turned around and ran away, "I'm busy today and don't have time to play with you. Goodbye."
As he said that, there was a street chase.
Sheng Yixia has the blessing of the Qinggong card, showing a strong parkour ability. He was seen moving, dodging, and sometimes flipping over obstacles. From time to time, he also used things on the street to throw back to hinder the pursuers.
When such a scene appeared in front of everyone.
Many people woke up instantly.
The male lead He Yunqiu's eyes were even more wide open, and he secretly said in his heart, this Sheng Yixia's skills are too good, right?
It was a pity that he had looked down on him from the bottom of his heart, thinking that he was just a traffic star who relied on his face to make a living.
The leading actress Xiong Yike also had her eyes wide open, and her mouth was so surprised that she couldn't close it. This, this, this---a cook who can't parkour can't be a good actor, right?
"Cough cough cough!"
Director Chen, who was immersed in the melody of the drama, was also choked by a mouthful of old tea. While coughing continuously, he looked at this scene in disbelief.
"Swish!"
Sheng Yixia ran five steps on the wall in a cool posture, then swooped out and spun in the air.
"Swish swish swish!"
More than a dozen Western playing cards flew out in a rotation, hitting the pursuers.
"Ahhh!"
The pursuers were hit by the playing cards one after another, and fell to the ground screaming.
That scene, there were as many divisions as needed, and I'm afraid it didn't need much post-processing!
Damn it!
Director Chen's hands trembled, and the thermos cup almost fell to the ground. There was only one thought in his mind.
It's over.
He, Old Chen, has fallen into trouble again.
Wait, why did I say the word "again"?
(Two in one, after twelve o'clock tonight, it will be updated at about midnight. Brothers and sisters, please subscribe first to show your support. If there is a plan for a burst of updates, I will announce it when I post my remarks today.)
