Become a dramatist from today

Zhou Beihong listened to the whole process and was relatively calm. After all, in his more than 20 years of filming career, what kind of thing has he not seen before? He actually helped deliver the baby on the set. What does this mean?

"If it's a protest by residents, then why don't they agree?" Zhou Beihong asked, "Lion Bay is a tourist town. Generally speaking, shouldn't the crew be welcome?"

The two questions stopped the external liaison producer and he called immediately. The person on the other end of the phone from the county government office refused to answer the reason.

"Give me the phone." Zhou Beihong said to the external producer. Then he got the phone and said, "Sir, our crew is very formal. We have Standing Huang who starred in "M. Butterfly", as well as "Anna" and "The Third". Nick Ye from "The Killer"."

The three films Director Zhou mentioned are all Hollywood films that are famous around the world.

The other party was silent for a moment after hearing what Zhou Beihong said, and then responded, "I'm sorry, we can't agree."

After saying that, he hung up the phone. Zhou Beihong fell into thinking. Did the other party violate the agreement because of the residents' protests, or did they think their crew was not well-known?

"Let's talk to Brother Ye and Huang Baiyou first. If it's not possible, we can take a day off today and then find a suitable filming location." Zhou Beihong said.

Producer Lu nodded, there was no other way.

When the protagonists heard about the current situation, they fell into silence.

"Maybe the residents of Lion Bay really don't agree." Chang Shudi said.

"I remember that the Chinese Exclusion Act was listed as a national event not long ago." Ye Jianxuan said, "This means that Canada admits that it has indeed been anti-Chinese in its history. I have also shot in Canada, and a large number of Canadians have a negative attitude towards the Chinese. Hostile.”

"Of course these are the past tense, we have to solve the current problem now." Ye Jianxuan suggested, "I have a solution, which requires Bai You's approval."

"Uncle Ye, please speak." Huang Baiyou said.

"The director also wanted to show the inner and outer aspects of the characters when shooting. Because there are very few lines, it is difficult to express, so we need to borrow outdoor scenes, right? Bei Hong." Ye Jianxuan said.

Zhou Beihong nodded. This scene is about Li Wen deciding to follow the painter to make counterfeit banknotes.

Even if it was a crime for Li Wen to make fake paintings before, the sentencing is completely different between fake paintings and counterfeit banknotes.

It is short and important, so the director needs to use lens language to assist.

Commercial film directors use lens language to assist actors, while art film directors use actors to create lens language. Of course, there are exceptions. For example, Ozu Yasujiro relies entirely on polishing the script, and the camera only has one camera position from beginning to end.

"So Bai You, can you express the impact of the character without using outdoor scenes?" Ye Jianxuan added, "I know this is a difficult request. If I were to act it myself, I don't know if I can do it, but if the actor is You, I think it’s okay.”

Not only is it difficult, it is simply difficult. The lines and length of this paragraph leave no room for people to express themselves.

Huang Baiyou closed his eyes and recalled the script, and then constructed the acting method several times in his mind.

He said: "I can try."

This is Huang Baiyou who defeated the audition actors all over the world and got the role. Ye Jianxuan smiled and said: "Producer Lu, just find an open space."

You can't just find an open space casually. Filming a movie requires setting up a camera, lighting, and on-site recording.

The external producers took action immediately. It was not easy to temporarily rent an open space for filming, but the external producers still had the ability to solve this minor problem.

"Does Lao Zhou have high hopes?" asked Producer Lu. Of course he hopes that the filming will be successful, because that will save a lot of trouble and expense.

"It's difficult, even for Teacher Huang." Zhou Beihong has already begun to think of solutions in his mind.

For example, should you make the dialogue longer, or create a noisy environment (cicadas chirping and birds chirping), and use a sound montage to shoot this section.

In about half an hour, the external producer successfully rented a small hill.

The bus is heading towards its destination, which is not far away.

Arriving at the scene, the photography team, lighting team, and sound recording team started working.

The laying time is also the time for actors to apply makeup. The makeup in modern dramas is relatively simple, and the main focus is spent on costumes.

Everything is ready, shooting begins——

The first is a wide-angle shot of a vehicle driving into an open space. The tires rub against the gravel, making an unpleasant sound.

In fact, there were not two people in the car, Ye Huang. The crew had an iron rule that the leading actors would not take transportation if they could.

As long as the scene of Huang Baiyou and Ye Jianxuan in the car is connected, the audience's minds will subconsciously complete the picture.

"Welcome." The painter played by Ye Jianxuan made a pun and calmly unbuckled his seat belt.

"Okay, tell me, which master's painting do you want to copy?" Li Wen, played by Huang Baiyou, speaks with strong confidence. He has absolute confidence in imitating fake paintings.

His action of unbuckling the seat belt was very different from Ye Jianxuan's. He pressed the safety buckle, first pulled it and then released it.

Ye Jianxuan took out a U.S. dollar bill from his coat pocket and held it in the air.

"Such a low price?" Huang Baiyou said with ridicule. He used to imitate famous paintings and earn thousands of dollars.

Why should a small job with a deposit of 100 US dollars be done so mysteriously?

Ye Jianxuan said in the same tone: "I want you to copy this dollar bill."

It was clearly visible that Huang Baiyou's expression went from teasing to solid, then he noticed that the person in front of him was not joking, and finally broke his guard.

"ill!"

Huang Baiyou opened the car door and ground his feet against the gravel until he felt pain.

"Are you crazy?" Huang Baiyou asked.

Ye Jianxuan, who played the role of a painter, got out of the car and walked to Huang Baiyou after saying the first sentence.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not a person of three religions, I also study art."

Ye Jianxuan looked at Huang Baiyou and emphasized: "What I do is professional counterfeiting of U.S. dollars."

The tone of his voice rose, and there was a little pride hidden in his words.

"You are only responsible for helping me with the production. I promise that I will not have anything to do with you for anything else." Ye Jianxuan said.

"I don't even know who you are or what your name is, how can you guarantee that?" Huang Baiyou's soles were still grinding stones.

If you want to accurately convey emotions to the audience in a short period of time, you must make good use of your hands and body language, but Huang Baiyou did not choose hand language.

Because what he wanted to show was not Li Wen's panic when he heard about making counterfeit banknotes.

"My name is Wu Fusheng, a native of Xiangjiang. I have been making counterfeit banknotes for three generations. No one has ever been in jail because we abide by the rules and only do wholesale."

Ye Jianxuan clasped his hands and showed his contempt for all religions and streams without raising his head.

He spoke confidently, "The buyers are all powerful people today, and they have always been very protective of our family."

"I dare not say that I can guarantee us, but one thing I can guarantee is that the super dollar bills I produce are the most popular real paintings in the world!"

When listening to the self-introduction of the artist in front of me, Huang Baiyou's feet seemed to be horse hooves, pawing the ground... etc. It can't be said that they resemble horse hooves, because the amplitude of the steps is very small, and you can't tell it without careful observation.

Everyone at the scene could see that Li Wen, played by Huang Baiyou, was suppressing something.

When Ye Jianxuan introduced him, a small hole had been dug under Huang Baiyou's feet...

Huang Baiyou is going to have a big one.

Please leave a message, everyone would like to see these photos of the filming and the drama on the set. I still like to see the media praise after the release, this is very important.
