A sound of oh: starting the prosperous age of splendor

When Fa Ge officially started to perform, Zhou Yu was mesmerized watching from behind Zhang Yimou.

so amazing.

This is an old actor!

Well done!

It’s not about how good Fa Ge’s expressions are and how good his lines are.

But there is a sense of relaxation in Fa Ge's acting.

There is a feeling that it is easy to pick up, making people feel that it does not look like an act at all.

"Okay, passed!" Zhang Yimou shouted loudly.

Zhou Yu couldn't help but applaud.

It's really a pleasure to watch Fa Ge act.

Zhou Yu now fully understood how big the gap between his acting skills was, like a chasm.

Zhang Yimou also felt Zhou Yu's mood and said with a smile: "Zhou Yu, Brother Fa did a good job. You don't have to be envious. This is all achieved through years of acting practice and it takes time!"

Zhou Yu understood what Zhang Yimou meant, but Zhou Yu was still envious.

With acting skills like this, it won’t be a problem to win several movie awards!

At this time, a staff member with a camera in his hand came to Zhang Yimou and said to Zhang Yimou: "Director Zhang, we are going to record a promotional material here. Can you look surprised!"

Zhang Yimou understood and said with a smile: "I understand, just look at it!"

With that said, Zhang Yimou sat down again, as if staring at the monitor.

Zhou Yu was behind Zhang Yimou, looking at this scene with a puzzled face, not quite understanding what he was doing.

In the monitor at this time, the staff were busy working.

What a nice look.

Before Zhou Yu could figure it out, Zhang Yimou's eyes widened with surprise. He turned to the person next to him and said, "You see, this is an old actor!"

Zhou Yu was dumbfounded.

What did you see? Those people moving machines in front, who are the old actors?

The real veteran actor Fa Ge is sitting next to him drinking water.

After Zhang Yimou finished his performance, he asked the staff member: "Is it okay?"

The other party nodded hurriedly and said: "Okay, okay!"

Seeing the other party leaving, Zhou Yu asked Zhang Yimou: "Director Zhang, what does this mean?"

Zhang Yimou knew that Zhou Yu didn't understand, so he smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's just a promotional material!"

Zhou Yu suddenly remembered that when many movies were released and promoted, some similar videos were released.

When Zhou Yu saw this kind of video, he thought it was an actor who really acted well, which shocked the director.

Now it seems that these are all staged!

Zhou Yu felt that he really learned something today.

If you don't come to the scene, you really don't know that many things are performed.

It looks like a documentary, but it’s actually a performance!

Next, Fa Ge continued to act as steadily as ever.

Zhou Yu discovered that this good actor is really good.

Not only will the acting be good, but there will also be a lot less messy things.

The efficiency of filming on set is really high.

The scene with Fa Ge was shot very quickly.

"Okay, that's it, let's call it a day!" Zhang Yimou suddenly shouted as he watched Fa Ge finish a scene.

The studio immediately burst into shouts: "Thank you, director!"

Zhou Yu looked at this scene and understood that it was time to call it a day.

Zhang Yimou also said to Zhou Yu: "Zhou Yu, go back and rest quickly. There will be a script reading in the afternoon. At that time, you, the screenwriter, will be your home!"

Zhou Yu saw Zhang Yimou standing up and about to leave, and asked curiously: "Director Zhang, don't you need to take care of the rest?"

Zhang Yimou nodded and said, "Of course, my work has been completed. Is there anything else I need to do?"

Zhou Yu looked around and found that there were already staff here to pack Zhang Yimou's things.

All departments are packing up their things in an orderly manner.

Zhou Yu was a little surprised when he saw this scene.

The entire crew is like a complete machine, with each department serving as its parts.

Every part works perfectly, and together they complete a movie.

Zhou Yu smiled and left with Zhang Yimou.

Today, Zhou Yu had a new understanding of the crew.

I finally understand why it costs so much money to film a movie.

It’s definitely not just actors’ salaries that are more expensive, other aspects are also important.

If actors' remuneration accounts for the majority of movie investment, then this movie is really going to be a bad movie.

On the way back to the hotel, Zhou Yu glanced at the time and found that it was already eleven o'clock noon.

This time flies so fast!

I only filmed two scenes and it was over in one morning.

On the way, the driver smiled and chatted with Zhou Yu, saying, "Teacher Zhou Yu, it's easier for you to make a movie. Let's call it a day!"

When Zhou Yu heard this, it seemed that making a movie was special, and asked curiously: "Then what is more tiring to shoot?"

The driver smiled and said: "It's the easiest to make a big-budget theater movie like yours. You have money and don't have to rush for time. You can just shoot a few odd hours every day!"

"The crews who film TV series can't do this. They have more than a dozen scenes every day, and their time is extremely tight!"

"Some small-budget online movies are even more exaggerated. They have to be filmed in a month. Every day, besides sleeping, they have to work. Don't even think about finishing work so early like you!"

When Zhou Yu heard what the driver said, he almost understood it.

The so-called minor scene is worth the length of the script that this scene occupies.

If this scene takes up only one tenth of a page in the script, then this scene is only one tenth of a page.

Generally speaking, the smaller the number, the shorter the scene and the simpler and faster it will be to shoot!

Unless it's some special plays, for example, some plays only have four words in the script.

"Thousands of troops!"

Even though it’s just four words, it’s not easy to shoot!

Zhou Yu asked curiously: "Since you all know that it is easier to make big movies, why do some people still make big online movies?"

"Of course I'm making money!" the driver said matter-of-factly.

"You are a big star, you can choose big movies, but others are not like you. It would be great if they can make online movies!"

Zhou Yu sighed, it was all forced by life.

Zhou Yu quickly returned to the hotel.

After lunch, Zhou Yu took a nap to make up for not getting enough sleep in the morning.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Yu came to Zhang Yimou's office.

Although I won’t work in the afternoon, I will have a script reading this afternoon.

Everyone read the script thoroughly in advance and shared their understandings.

In this way, it will be much simpler when it comes to actual shooting.

During the script reading, Zhou Yu was not only an actor, but also a screenwriter.

Here, Zhou Yu's importance even exceeds that of director Zhang Yimou.
