fight real army

After shooting the first set of shots of Shen Ge, it started to rain.

The crew stopped working for a long time, and instead of waiting for the sunshine, they waited for the dusty Producer Liang.

The filming was suspended and changed to a meeting. Ling Jiale followed Wang Xu and Liang Producers back to the "meeting room". This time Shen Ge also wanted to attend.

Producer Liang used very tactful words, politely explaining to Ling Jiale how much money the crew had spent on this public relations crisis, how much favors they owed, and what other predictable or unpredictable adverse effects would there be.

Just a few hours after they filmed "Zhang Song Meets Jiang Lu", many influential filmmakers retweeted the latest Weibo post of "Sweat Through Clothes", congratulating Wang Xu on the launch of his new film.

Few people use the word "entertainment circle", some like to say "entertainment circle", some like to say "literary circle".As Ling Jiale once said to Shen Ge, there is an invisible barrier between the TV circle and the film circle, as well as between "art" and "entertainment".

No one has said it explicitly, but the clear-cut atmosphere has always been there; and based on past experience, whenever these two circles collide intentionally or unintentionally, it often does not spark amazing sparks, but leaves ugly potholes.

Ling Jiale is a celebrity in the "entertainment circle", and those experienced behind-the-scenes filmmakers and low-key veteran actors are the backbone of the "art circle".

These people rashly got involved with the word "Ling Jia Le", which immediately aroused the displeasure of the majority of netizens, who said that they told Ling Jia Le to get out of the entertainment circle, not because they wanted him to meet these old artists.

Coincidentally, just before Ling Jiale's latest scandal broke out, the two most popular searches on Weibo were all about a famous foreign film festival: this year not only two blockbuster Chinese films participated in the exhibition, but also Min Huai'an, known as the "Light of the Chinese" of the new generation, was invited to be a judge.

As soon as the news about "Ling Jiale dating his girlfriend of the year" came out, it immediately dominated several trending searches, squeezing both the film festival and Min Huai'an to the bottom.

Many people ridiculed that Ling Jiale's magic power is boundless, and as soon as his name appears, the tone of the entire Internet will be lowered by eighteen levels.

"Obviously, we can't let our movie always give people the impression of 'low-key'. There are still many months before the official promotion. If people think of "Sweaty Shirt" in these months and feel low, this impression It’s a real hit, and no matter how publicized it is, it won’t be easy to turn it around.” Producer Liang said this to Wang Xu, but his eyes always looked at Ling Jiale.

Ling Jiale was ashamed and asked, "Producer Liang, is there anything I can do?"

Producer Liang smiled relievedly, "We plan to make up a launch conference, find some other topics to stir up speculation, and cover up the previous news-of course, this part is the work of the crew, and there is no need for funds, favors, etc. Teacher Ling is worried."

"I mainly want Teacher Ling to clarify my private affairs again. It's best to bring your mother with you—"

Ling Jiale started to shake her head, but Director Liang was still saying, "I heard that your mother was once the principal of the National Ballet Company. Looking at the photos, she has a very good temperament and image. Isn't it the 'high style' that netizens like? Let's discuss After a while, I felt that you appeared in front of the public with your mother in your own name—"

"No, no, it can't be like this..." Ling Jiale shook her head vigorously, "My mother doesn't get involved in these things, and I can't get my family involved."

Producer Liang frowned slightly, and still said patiently: "I understand Teacher Ling's desire to protect his family, but this matter is related to your family, I think they are willing to come out and explain , not only to maintain your own image, but also to protect you—”

"No need." Like a doll with a blank expression, Ling Jiale just shook his head and said "no": "My parents don't read these things, they don't know."

Producer Liang almost laughed, which made his tone more amiable: "Parents always like to tell white lies to reassure their children, but it's impossible not to know. Even if your family members don't surf the Internet or play WeChat Bo, then the colleagues and friends around them will always know, and then pass it on to them, right?"

Producer Liang asked seriously: "Ms. Ling, hasn't talked about this with your family yet? This is a crisis for everyone. I think you should have an open and honest talk with your family. This is the only way to protect your family. ..."

No matter how he tried to induce, Ling Jiale just shook his head, "They don't read these, and neither do their students."

Speaking of later, Producer Liang was also a little annoyed.Ling Jiale's incident was a sudden disaster for the production crew. It disrupted the promotional rhythm for no reason and caused so much trouble. Ling Jiale's uncooperative behavior made him harden his tone.

As soon as he got strong, the words he said started to be ugly, Ling Jiale couldn't even say "no", just kept his head down and remained silent, without giving any reaction, as if what he was talking about now had nothing to do with Ling Jiale.

Just like in that hotel toilet, at that dinner table, those reporters and that investor were speaking obscene things about him, but he pretended not to hear them.

It seems that if he pretends not to hear, those voices really do not exist; it seems that if he does not look, those eyes outside the pavilion really do not exist; he is obviously still sitting there upright, but he seems to have shrunk into a ball and closed his eyes , Cover your ears, wishing to completely isolate yourself from the world.

This is not called indifference and turning a deaf ear, but resignation.

This kind of Ling Jia Le is not the one who laughs and throws cherry pits at Chen Ge, is not the one who raises his chin and arrogantly rolls his eyes at Chen Ge, or the one who stares blankly at a tree under the sun with a paintbrush and is lazy , not to mention the one leaning out half of his body on the window sill, looking into the distance with his clear eyes.

Shen Ge couldn't take it anymore, he gritted his teeth and roared at Producer Liang: "I can't force him anymore! You look at him...you look at him..." He gritted his teeth, restrained the fury in his heart and roared, begging Liang to restrain him. Pian can take a good look at Ling Jiale's eyes, and beg him to feel some pity for Ling Jiale.

Producer Liang was interrupted by him, and said displeasedly: "Shen Ge, you don't have the place to talk here, do you understand these things?"

Shen Ge's eyes were red with hatred, and he turned to ask Wang Xu: "Director! How can Ling Jiale be filming in this state?"

But Wang Xu just sat there smoking a cigarette without saying a word, not knowing what was going on in his mind.

Producer Liang suddenly raised his foot and kicked the leg of the table forcefully, "Is my request too much! You make it sound like I'm a villain! Shen Ge, ask him yourself, which one of his previous hypes is not as hot as my request? I am Let him take a photo with his mother, is there any harm to anyone? It is obviously a happy thing, and he can cooperate with his company to make news, why can't he cooperate with the crew to explain?"

He stood up and almost pointed his index finger on Ling Jiale's nose, "Ling Jiale, did the crew treat you badly? Based on your previous image, who would want you to film a movie! Your agency lion opened its mouth and dared to ask for 500 million yuan in salary! After that you Take Joe, let us add another 100 million! Do you know how much a movie star like Min Huaian is willing to pay to play Jiang Lu? —— Zero salary! Zero salary! For an actor like you, your salary alone accounts for our investment budget-"

"Okay, what do you mean by an actor like him? He is an actor I picked out by myself, I think it's fine." Wang Xu finally spoke, "Old Liang, you should stop when it's too late."

Producer Liang seemed to be almost overwhelmed with anger, and looked at Wang Xu with great perplexity: "Wang Xu, how many years have we worked together, you are not the kind who only knows about art and doesn't understand outside matters The kind of director you are, how come you just--"

"Okay." Wang Xu stood up and stubbed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, "I'll let you take a set of shots away, and don't bother my protagonist anymore. They haven't fully entered the scene yet, and your trouble You have to slow down."

Wang Xu asked Producer Liang to take away the set of shots that Ling Jiale had just shot today—Jiang Lu, with his old-fashioned hairstyle, looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a white shirt with a sharp collar, and a light blue fat big The jeans and the white-painted return sneakers, walking in the sun and in the shade of the trees, hesitating three times a step.

"Talking about the work is more powerful than any response." Wang Xu said.

This is his persistence and self-confidence. Producer Liang has worked with him for more than ten years. Knowing that it will be useless to say more, he just left a sentence: "Then Huai'an's favor, you can pay it yourself, I don't care." The plane left the south.

It's still raining.

Wang Xu said: "I generally don't recommend doing this, letting the actors' own emotions replace the emotions of the characters. No method school or expression school is right. I only believe in one, the experience school."

Ling Jiale and Shen Ge looked at each other.

Wang Xu smiled: "Don't understand?"

"Life is bound to be frustrating, especially in this era, when there are too many troubles. I have always regarded movies as a peach blossom garden. When I enter the set, I don't care about the outside world. The world is the story."

"Jia Le, I will lend you Jiang Lu's sadness today."

Wang Xu didn't "skip the shoot" in the first place, but today he made an exception for Ling Jiale, and wanted to shoot Jiang Lu after waking up from the pleasure of being drowned, and escaped from the small hotel. On the way back, he fell into deep self-loathing and confusion middle.

This section was not in the rain, but Wang Xu said: "Since it is going to rain, there is nothing we can do. The section of crying in the rain is indeed old, but the reason why the section is old is because of the classics."

Ling Jiale ran out of the hotel and rushed into the rain. The cameraman was chasing after him with a camera on his shoulders—no slide rails, no anti-shake, no lights, no radio, just rely on the camera on the cameraman's shoulder.

He even had to control the sound of his breathing, because Ling Jiale ran too fast, and he was already panting heavily after chasing all the way.

Ling Jiale squatted down suddenly, the photographer didn't react at first, and took a picture of the empty scene in front of Ling Jiale.But the director didn't stop, so he had to turn around and continue to shoot Ling Jiale squatting on the ground hugging his head and crying from top to bottom.

It is not as light as the plum rain in June, nor is it as smooth as the torrential rain in August. The raindrops hit people with neither light nor heavy, which is not comfortable, and the clothes are soaked and sticky, which is also very uncomfortable.

The photographer glanced at Wang Xu in the distance from time to time, and he couldn't turn off the camera before calling "stop"; Xiao Li next to Wang Xu was holding an umbrella, with a bath towel on his other arm, and looked at Wang Xu from time to time , one foot has already stepped forward in a hurry.But he didn't dare to move. This is the rule of the set, and it's a death order. No one can move unless the director yells "stop".

Shen Ge suddenly grabbed the umbrella and bath towel from Xiao Li's hand and rushed into the rain.
