Reborn in another world, the boss loves me to the core

When this film was first launched, no one was optimistic about it. He was a little-known director making a horror drama, but he couldn't even get any investment. In the end, he sold his house in Kyoto to barely raise the funds. However, after the necessary start-up investment, the remaining money was only enough to pay a few new actors.

Unexpectedly, it has become the most anticipated project. Not only have sponsors contacted us one after another, but the leading actress is also the hottest star with her own box office revenue.

This caused him a lot of pressure and he became more demanding about details.

The scene of this video is in an office, where the prison manager and warden Xu Fu introduces Cai Wenhui's situation to her.

"This is a Class 4A prison that specializes in detaining serious mentally ill criminals with a history of severe mental illness," said Xu Fu.

The actor who plays Xu Fu is a middle-aged actor in his forties named Dai Jingtao. He wears glasses and looks wise.

"Where is Cai Wenhui?"

"He has an extremely high IQ. From a research perspective, he is our most valuable research subject. It is rare to be able to capture him alive."

Shen Yue stood in the office, looking around.

The whole scene was cold, dark and depressing.

"Many investigators have come here, and you are the most beautiful one I have ever seen. Miss Shen, you will stay overnight in Qincheng, right? If you have a suitable guide, you will find Qincheng is a very interesting city." Xu Fu showed great interest in her.

Shen Yue showed a little impatience on her face, "Chief Xu, I still have to meet Mr. Cai Wenhui and go back to write a report in the afternoon."

Xu Fu stood up and said, "Then we need to speed up. His room is quite far away."

Scene change. Originally it was planned to be shot separately, but it was adjusted temporarily and shot in one take.

"We tried to study him, but he is too advanced. Ordinary tests are useless." Xu Fu walked through the messy office. "Cai Wenhui is very smart. He will seduce you!"

The scene changed again, and now they were walking down a spiral staircase. The camera that had been set up long ago and the cameraman who was ready accurately captured the figures of the two people walking down the stairs from a high altitude.

"What do you mean?"

"Ha, the higher-ups found a beautiful girl to seduce him. He hasn't seen a woman in the eight years since he was locked up here, and you're just what she likes. Maybe you can get something out of her."

The passage, with fluorescent tubes behind, and the slide rails move backwards with the two people's footsteps.

The camera switches between two angles: a close-up shot of the face from bottom to top, and a shot of the forehead from top to bottom.

"Commander Xu, I graduated from Kyoto University with a degree in criminal psychology, not a vase that studies etiquette." Shen Yue was disgusted, with a perfunctory smile on her face.

"Kyoto University? That's great. You should be able to remember the meeting rules I'm going to talk about next."

After filming the two people's backs as they entered a small iron gate, Yu Linong called for a stop.

Four scenes were changed and two takes were completed in one take, all in one shot!

Su Xian and Dai Jingtao went to watch the replay.

Because it was a continuous shot, shot from beginning to end, and for such a long distance, the two of them unknowingly quickened their pace.

The effect of shooting in this way is much more natural than shooting one by one, and the time is much shorter. It will give the audience a stronger sense of urgency brought by Shen Yue's curiosity, making the audience unconsciously follow Shen Yue's eagerness to understand what kind of person Cai Wenhui is.

This shooting method requires very high acting skills of the actors, control ability of the director, and cooperation of all departments of the crew.

Even for Su Xian, it is rare to be able to maintain such a full emotional state in one take.

But this method is rarely used nowadays, either because the actors’ acting skills are not good enough or the directors dare not use it.

Some low-profile crews or actors with poor acting skills even have to split a simple dialogue scene into several segments for filming.

While waiting for the next scene to be set up, Su Xian and Dai Jingtao sat aside to rest.

After a brief chat, Dai Jingtao began to recite his lines over and over again. He had a lot of lines in this scene.

Su Xian herself was not a very outgoing person, so she had no pressure about the lines and started studying the script.

When the script reading session was organized for this book, she did not attend because she was busy with the production of Farewell My Concubine.

The two didn't put down the script until the executive director came to notify them of the next scene.

It is still a long passage separated by iron doors. This is the original scene of Qincheng Prison.

"Do not try to touch or approach that glass."

"If you want to write, you cannot pass a ballpoint pen or fountain pen. You can only pass soft paper, and there cannot be staples or clips on the paper."

"You can only use that movable food stand to transport it."

"Don't accept anything he gives you."

"Understand?"

Xu Fu spoke these lines in one breath as he walked.

Three cameras and professional recording equipment will capture the original sound and record it live.

"I understand! But I don't understand why there are so many rules!"

Scene change, no longer in the channel!

Here Yu Linong did not use one take, but shot it in two takes.

"Next take, ready, go!" as the script supervisor hits the board.

The two people appeared from the stairs and what came into view was a red iron door, which was the elevator door.

"Every rule we make is there for a reason, let me show you."

Xu Fu talked as he walked.

The two entered the elevator and stood face to face.

When the lights here moved just now, Yu Linong changed to red, which seemed to foreshadow the bloody things to come.

"One afternoon seven years ago, Cai Wenhui said he had chest pain and was taken to the medical room. In order to facilitate an electrocardiogram, his mask was removed. When the nurse approached him, he did this to her."

Xu Fu took out a photo.

The camera lens turned to Shen Yue's face. Under the red light, Shen Yue's beautiful face showed a bit of horror.

"Eventually doctors were able to reshape her jaw and save one of her eyes."

"I've kept him here since that time."

The elevator door behind me opened.

Xu Fu walked forward, but Shen Yue called him. She looked back at the elevator and said, "Chief Xu, you have been studying Cai Wenhui here for so long. In his eyes, you should be considered his enemy, right?"

"Why don't I go see him alone? That might be more effective, what do you think?"

Xu Fu's face darkened.

"You should have brought it up in my office, and saved me the trip."

"Yes, but I will miss the fun of traveling with you!" Shen Yue said with a smile on her face.

"Cut, this one passed!" Yu Linong shouted.

This scene is over and it is time for lunch.

The crew staff distributed lunch boxes to everyone.

Su Xian had a scene in the afternoon, so she didn't remove her makeup.

She took her lunch box and sat on the rest chair, eating slowly.

Dai Jingtao came over and sat down with his lunch box.

"I'm sorry for what I said just now. I have a bad memory and I'm afraid I'll forget the words." Dai Jingtao said.

His attitude was too cold towards the big star that the entire crew had to curry favor with.

"It doesn't matter. I also like to devote myself to a role when I'm filming." Su Xian put down his chopsticks.

"This is the first time I've played a role with so many lines." Dai Jingtao is completely different from the character Dr. Xu. Xu Fu is cold, while Dai Jingtao is much gentler.

"Teacher Dai, your acting is great! This is also the first time I've gotten into a role so quickly."

A good actor can take himself to another level.

"Don't call me Teacher Dai. I'm just a guerrilla fighter, not a teacher. Everyone in the crew calls me Old Dai." Dai Jingtao laughed.

He has been playing supporting roles since his debut, and until now, his characters can be seen in many TV dramas and movies.

There are many people like him in Yunzhuang Film and Television City.

There is no fixed agency.

Usually it is introduced by acquaintances or middlemen.
