red dust upside down

When Su Rong arrived on the set, the crew was shooting exterior scenes. Although Xiao Su was not like Lu He, who treated movie making as a business, congratulations came from all directions—he also hated socializing, but he still had the same social phobia as Le Zijiao. There is an essential difference.The most well-known story of Le Zijiao is that when he was filming "Love in Qingyao", the producer directly recruited the local government's first and second leaders to make a team, and seriously talked with him about cooperation.But there was a fish tank in the restaurant, so he just stood by the tank and watched the fish for two hours without saying a word.Later, this film directly swept the domestic film awards, and also won several awards in European film festivals. Not to mention domestic, foreign tourists are flocking in an endless stream. It is still a must-see spot for domestic literary and artistic youth. How economical.He was stunned because he didn't get any benefits. He filmed it forcefully. The cost of the film was not even borne by the local government. When he went to shoot ancient buildings, he was almost kicked out by the gatekeeper.

In contrast, Xiao Su is much more powerful. He directly negotiated cooperation with the local government and built a Tang City, which is magnificent and grand, used for filming, and used as a local attraction when it is used up. This is also a classic cooperation model.Not to mention the capital investment, even the green light for shooting, the local front line also fully cooperated, not to mention the water and electricity supply for the location, and even an ancient Tang Dynasty temple in the local area was used as a set for him.The wooden structures of the Tang Dynasty have gone through thousands of years, and even touching them makes people tremble. He directly laid tracks inside for filming, and also dug holes outside to plant trees. When an excavator digs, the dust inside will rustle down.There was a feeling of falling apart, and Yi Zhan couldn't help but curse because he couldn't see this kind of thing.

"No way," the producer called Tian Cheng, very amiable, explained for Xiao Su with a smile: "There is no way for the film effect, we can only toss a little bit. When the film is finished, there will be a protection appropriation, otherwise they will not even maintain it." There is no money, and this was repaired after we came here, otherwise you can see that some of the rafters outside are rotten."

But the effect of this temple is still good. It is said to be in the Tang Dynasty, but in fact the official said it is in the later Tang Dynasty. There are also painted Buddha statues inside. The lighting is originally dark, and there is only a ray of skylight at noon.Xiao Su didn't know how much film was wasted in order to shoot this shot.

Li Shang and the others were shooting exterior scenes that day. Xiao Su liked to use light and shadow. He photographed the sea of ​​forest surging in the wind at dusk. As long as the twilight is combined, the light and shadow that is less than half an hour away.The hero of Li Shang is Xue Man, a mixed-race heroic swordsman, and his mother is Hu Ji, who is banned by martial arts. He rides a horse and wears a sword. He wears a dark crimson lapel robe and stands on a hillside. A thick layer of twilight, with the texture of an oil painting.

The plot of this episode is that Xue Man is here waiting to assassinate Li Guochang, the envoy of Zhenwu Jiedu who passed by here, but in the end he was disturbed by the heroine chasing the four murderers, and the assassination was unsuccessful.The selection of the heroine for this movie was also full of twists and turns. Su Rong was traveling at the time and missed it. Looking back later, she also felt that it was really bloody.The Gong Mei that was first passed on, if it was really Gong Mei, there would be nothing to do later.When it comes to movie casting, Gong Mei is a bit like the number one master of martial arts, she takes any role for granted, and others don't bother to grab it, because she knows she won't get it.

But Gong Mei's temperament type does not fit the heroine, so this position was vacated, which triggered a fight.It's no wonder that young people nowadays regard Xiao Su as their spiritual idol. He really took the script of the protagonist. Needless to say, he came from a humble background, but he was amazingly talented all the way to the top, and he has not been seen by the mainstream view.The film awards favored Le Zijiao more than him. One of the things that criticized him the most was that he basically only used mature commercial actors as the protagonists, and whoever was popular used whoever was popular. Back then when he acted, the leading actresses and supporting actresses were all popular actresses. There were a few gossips in one film, and I stopped acting in recent years, but I still filmed one hit, and the male and female protagonists are enough for several years.

So the beating was so bad that the four little female roles walked all over, even Li Yunshi, who was the last round of female roles, came out to fight. It was once passed on to Qin Jianjia, but in the end it was Tong Xiaojia's uncle who gave her the force and forced her to take it down. It caused a lot of scolding.

It's not been a day or two since Su Rong wanted to transform Tong Xiaojia. He always prefers this kind of flamboyant appearance, which is the opposite of Pei Yin. do.But even if he thought about it again, he still called Lin Sa before he went. Lin Sa seemed to be jet-lagged, and when he answered, he asked, "What time is it?"

"nine in the morning."

"Oh," he said nasally, as if he was awakened from a deep sleep, "what's the matter?"

"I'm going to Xiao Su's studio to be a makeup artist."

"Oh." Lin Sa looked very calm, and was about to hang up, when he suddenly remembered: "The art director of that film is Yang Shaoshan, and he has a strong desire to control, so don't push him hard."

A good beauty finger has a strong desire to control, Yang Shaoshan has a good temper, and Vincent is scary. Many young makeup artists in the industry have left a psychological shadow under his hands.Among so many apprentices, only Pei Yin has learned half of his temper, and he is also famous in the industry.

Su Rong agreed casually, and finished reading Lango's original book on the plane.The main set of Xiao Su’s filming was in the Tang Temple. He first went to show off to Yi Zhan. Yi Laosan was very good-tempered and showed him his own design book. He basically had prototypes for every piece of clothing. Although not all from the late Tang Dynasty, Yang Shaoshan was only responsible for the costumes of the male lead, and handed over half of the female lead to him.He was really kind to Su Rong, only the makeup artist accommodated in the costume design, but he let go of the clothes and casually styled Su Rong as he wanted.

Seeing his posture, Su Rong knew that he was going to be serious about restoration. Yi Zhan was a bit of an engineering mind, Ding Mao was Ding Mao, and he had to talk about ergonomics when making a wing for a fantasy drama.However, Su Rong inherited Vincent's imaginative and unconstrained style, and only waited for Xiao Su to come back.

After Li Shang finished shooting a set of shots, the light was completely gone.At the beginning of filming the night scene, the bonfire sets were all ready-made. It was Tong Xiaojia’s two separate scenes, and she performed with a green puppet in her arms. The post-production special effects were made into a little monster she caught.Li Shang was already preparing to withdraw at this time, but Xiao Su came over with the script, and Li Shang understood him when he saw him like this.

"Changing the play again?" He already knew everything about Xiao Su's director style.He is the kind of wild genius who is the most troublesome of the academic school. He messes around and can surprise everyone.Like the kind of painter who turned out without any training, he made others become painters, and even Lu He seemed too rigid in front of him.

So Li Shang directly nicknamed him "Director Minke". After Xiao Su figured out what Minke was, he didn't beat him, but added two more scenes to him.When other directors engage in actors, they cut shots, and he adds more.

But he really has an older brother's perspective on Li Shang, he doesn't necessarily pay attention to him, but he can do whatever he wants. Ordinary actors can only read the script, and Li Shang took all his storyboards. Sometimes he was still playing on his walkie-talkie, calling the whole group: "Don't take pictures, don't take pictures, Xiao Su was locked in the bathroom by me, everyone go home and eat."

Compared with Lu He's crew, Xiao Su's group are all real filmmakers.Many people can’t believe it. This group of people is really like ordinary office workers. Although they stay in the center of the entertainment industry, many of them are old people in the Hong Kong circle. They speak Cantonese, and they usually chat very plainly. Yes, they don't speak the same language as the mainland team, and their level is only at the level of saying hello. Instead, they can chat with Li businessmen because they all use English.Take turns complaining to him about Xiao Su's reckless revision of the script, and last night the set was set up until three o'clock in the morning.

This time Xiao Su changed it again, temporarily adding a night scene, and moved the scene of catching little monsters directly after the encounter between the hero and heroine. Today, he filmed the few scenes that were not played, and it looks like it will last all night.The set is still being changed here, and the film crew over there has already soaked noodles. This place is more than ten miles away from the nearest village. Fortunately, there are also homestays in the local area, which can serve hot meals.

Huang Lei flew over on a red-eye flight last night. She just slept in the nanny car for a while, and when she got out of the car and saw the situation, she asked Li Shang, "Boss, are we shooting night scenes?"

Li Shang was too lazy to nod, and sat on a chair to read the script. There were already bugs in this season. The 4K lights on the set were lit up like a little sun, and countless flying insects bumped into it. Someone suddenly said: "The food is here."

In the darkness, a car came with its headlights on, but it didn't look like a food delivery person, because it almost overdriven and ran over Xiao Su's precious grass.He took a fancy to this piece of native grassland, and wanted to capture the feeling of warblers flying and grass growing in the forest.

Yi Zhan came down first, which was normal, after all, he was in uniform, jumping down in boots and overalls, followed by a figure a head shorter than him.He probably didn't know how cold it was at night here. He was wearing a thin formal coat and a large down jacket that was easy to stain, making his figure even more slender.When looking at the set, there was a sense of novelty, and it was inevitable that I saw Li Shang at first sight.

Li Shang smiled at him, but he averted his eyes and jumped out of the car.Looking around with the look of a cat just arrived in a new place, Huang Lei has already run over to call "Brother Rong", and the other two girls have also moved over.

Li Shang just sat and waited for him to come.

Su Rong looked at the set as if nothing had happened. Xiao Su's scene will be filmed in the wild for more than half a month, and this place has already become a temporary camp.We set up a few tents. It hasn't rained for the past few days, and all sides are rolled up, with shooting equipment and props piled inside.Several clothing cars and dining cars were parked, as well as Li Shang and Tong Xiaojia's nanny car and make-up car. At this point, many people were moving things, and it looked very lively.

Although he worked with a few crews after graduation, they were all TV dramas, and helping Vincent in the film crew was just for a while. Xiao Su's crew is a top professional in the industry, it is impossible not to feel guilty, and he is a little excited.Last night I read the materials all night, and went to Vincent to get some books before I left.

He first poked his head around the tents for a look, and then walked over to Li Shang's side slowly.

Li Shang didn't speak, but looked at him with a smile in his eyes.Li Shang is not afraid of being scared by nature. When a normal person is sitting, if someone comes and stands next to him, he will feel a little cramped.But he was able to sit still, and his aura was even stronger.As an actor, Yang Shaoshan is indeed at the top level in China. He is wearing a dark scarlet lapel gown. This scarlet color is a bit weather-beaten, but the material is very good. There is only an occasional flash between actions, which makes people suspect that it is their own illusion.

Li Shang has long legs. He wears Hufu boots and sits with one leg folded. The trousers are a bit wide, so they look neater when they are tucked into the boots.The hair is also good-looking, the background color is bleached to dark gray, and there are sometimes deep and shallow silver gray in it, but it is not as jumpy as highlighting, but like the original hair color layer.Even the hair that fits the history seems to have a sense of leisure and danger.It's also because of his good-looking face, no wonder Xiao Su shoots night scenes for him every day, with his body shape and dress, and the outline of his facial features, sitting in the night, he looks exactly like the Tang Dynasty ranger named Xue Man.

Su Rong couldn't help but stroked his hair: "Is this made by Teacher Yang?"

"His apprentice did it."

Li Shang's skull has a high top, and the whole is a Western-style round head, so it is very natural to grab and tie his hair casually.Unlike many male stars in ancient costumes, they have to use their hair to pad the top of their skulls, otherwise the entire forehead will be retracted, like an ape.

Su Rong played with his hair again, Li Shang grew his hair long for this movie, so that it is convenient for the joint.The last few modern outfits with curly hair look really good.After Wan Guo Ji, the team is not so afraid to remind the audience that he is a mixed race.

He played Li Shang and just let him play, that kind of demeanor was completely different from that of a makeup artist, who almost gave his face to his hands, Huang Lei watched from the side, with a look of amazement on his face.

"Do you eat in the open air like this?" Su Rongxiang came to check: "What's over there, the bathroom?"

"Well, we used to go to the bathroom on the make-up van. Later, the boss told the director that he bought a few Disney-like mobile toilets, which is very convenient now. The director also said that he is an environmental protection pioneer." Huang Lei Smiling to show credit for Li Shang.

In fact, Su Rong didn't need to think about why Xiao Su said that Li Shang's environmental protection pioneer - filming in the wilderness, many of them were solved on the spot.Especially in the past few years when Xianxia dramas became popular, they often went to places where there were no villages or shops behind to shoot exterior scenes. Not to mention the crew, male stars were all photographed by the paparazzi.In the past two years, the packaging of idols has become better and better, and cutouts are used for exterior scenes, which is not the case for TV dramas.

There are hundreds of staff members in this crew, and they definitely can't all go to the makeup van. Only managers like Huang Lei, or girls can do this.Li Shang must not be able to stand it anymore, that's why Xiao Su made it.He also has a strange personality, and he is said to be indifferent, but he also said this kind of thing that ordinary stars would not say.In this day and age, celebrities do a lot and make a lot of mistakes. They always regard themselves as bodhisattvas in the temple, and they don't talk about everything.

If Su Rong knew that Xiao Su had just found the bathroom, Li Shang locked him in and used his walkie-talkie to inform the whole crew of the dinner, probably wouldn't feel that way.

However, the current Su Rong may have the patience to figure out why he did this - Xiao Su filmed from morning to five in the afternoon, his adrenaline soared and he didn't feel hungry, and most of the crew were staring at gold stars.He didn't dare to open his mouth yet, because the filming was very difficult that day, Xiao Su had already lost his temper, and only Li Shang dared to do this in the entire crew.

"What's being filmed over there? Is it the scene where the gold slaves were caught that night?"

"Well, Xiao Su just changed this scene and the Bodhisattva Man scene together."

Su Rong's eyes lit up immediately.

"I gonna go see."

"Okay, I just want to watch it too, let's go together. It is said that the director invited all national-level dancers to shoot this scene, and I have never seen it." Huang Lei said enthusiastically, but even if she just After waking up, he was still clever. Seeing Li Shang's expression, he decided to find a reason to escape: "Well, I'll go and call for Gao Gao. She seems to have run into the car. Brother Rong, go there first."

In fact, it is not far away, but it is tens of meters away, and even the bonfire can be seen, but this kind of wild night is so dark that it seems far away.Su Rong had no choice but to follow Li Shang. Li Shang was also very professional. He found a lamp from the tent and carried it. When he turned it on, it was frighteningly bright.

"Does it look like mining?" He asked Su Rong with a smile.

He is really naive when he looks naive, he said that the high school boys are giving him face, and the crew used this kind of battery light to carry them away when they were filming in the field.

While Su Rong disliked him, she obediently followed him and felt something was wrong: "Why are you taking me up the mountain?"

"Xiao Su's taste is too bad, this scene is the best when viewed from above."

Su Rong actually wanted to believe him, but in the end he walked around a big tree within two steps, and Li Shang pressed him against the tree to kiss him.
