Entertaining Children

"That's right, I didn't expect Duo'er to learn badly from Bayi!" Zhao Rui and Zhu Zitong also looked at Sun Tingting and said.

Although Zhao Rui and Zhu Zitong are not in Shencheng like Lin Qisan and Nina Aiyiguli, they have also been to Yin Xi's studio several times, know Yin Xi, and know the relationship between Yin Xi and Xiao Yao.

"What did I do?" Sun Tingting said aggrievedly, "What I said is the truth! I didn't say that the heroine is not sister Yin Xi!"

"But what happened to your sigh just now?" Lin Qisan asked.

"Okay, okay!" Xiao Yao waved his hand, and first glanced at Sun Tingting helplessly, "Isn't it enough to shoot a scene during the day? Do you want to continue acting at night?"

"And you," Xiao Yao looked at the others again, "If you really want to act, find a project to take on a role or find a script to start a project, what will you act in front of me?"

Several people laughed and did not answer.

"Speak seriously!" Xiao Yao straightened his face and said, "I promised her the project for Sister Yin Xi, and it is my private matter. The company belongs to everyone, and I will not force you. I will compare the script outline and The project plan will be discussed at the year-end meeting, if you feel inappropriate, you can speak up at that time. I can use the resources of my own studio to cooperate with her studio instead of using the company's resources."

"What's this called? Yin Xi is your sister, and also our sister." Lin Qisan objected first, "We didn't object to you opening a project for Duo'er, how could we object to you opening a project for Sister Xi?"

"You invest in Mr. Tong's animation company in the name of your personal studio, and you can cooperate with animation film projects. After all, it was before our film and television company was established." Zhao Rui continued, "Sister Xi's TV drama project was originally Our company's business scope, her studio is not a film and television company, since you decided to start this project no matter what, it makes no sense to let your company's resources go unused, and let you find other film and television companies. We are not just What's wrong with being able to make money with you and not lose money with you?"

"What's the money loss?" Zhu Zitong said, "The project Xiao Yao put forward is not bad? I think he wants to get rid of us and make money by himself?"

"Okay, okay,

"Xiao Yao quickly raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "That's what I said, and I didn't say that I must do that project by myself. "

"Stop talking about me, let's talk about you guys?" Xiao Yao said, "What are your plans for the future?"

"In the future? Let's continue acting, what other plans do you have?" Lin Qisan said.

"Is there no idea of ​​working part-time behind the scenes as a director?" Xiao Yao asked.

"No!" Lin Qisan and Zhao Rui immediately shook their heads together.

"For this movie project, Zitong and I are already exhausted just as producers!" Zhao Rui said, "After finishing this project, I don't even plan to be a producer anymore. Act well, and at most work part-time as an action director or something. I'm not you, as a director, at least in the next ten years, I probably won't want to try it!"

"Me too!" Lin Qisan also said, "It's better to have you in front of this TV drama project, but you ran away and threw it to me and Nina. Nina and I also worked very hard. The director and producer I won’t try things like people before I’m 30, so I’d better act first and be a model when I have time, and I’m only going to study and try art for the behind-the-scenes work of film and television works.”

"I don't have any ideas, just act well now!" Zhu Zitong said.

"Me too!" Nina Aiyiguli said, "Among these people, I have the least reputation. I don't even have a representative work. I'd better act well first and raise my reputation."

"It was not easy for me to graduate from Chambers," Sun Tingting said. "In addition to acting, I have to continue with music. I don't have any plans to go behind the scenes in the short term."

The power of directors and producers is naturally much greater than that of actors, but the corresponding pressure will also be much greater. They are still young and have already established a film and television company, so they are not in a hurry to transform to gain this kind of greater power. The first two projects of the company are basically projects for newcomers, and they are all classmates from their own school, so the difficulty is relatively small. After experiencing these two projects, everyone felt a little strenuous, and they were not interested in this kind of behind-the-scenes work for the time being.

"Alright!" Xiao Yao nodded, "But even if you don't become directors and producers, you are still the bosses of film and television companies. You don't have to search for roles everywhere like others, and you can start projects in the company yourself. .If we come across a good script or project, the company can invest or even take the lead. We can find experienced producers and directors in the industry to do it.”

"Of course, you don't need to remind me!" Zhao Rui laughed.

"How long are you planning to stay this time when you come to visit the class?" After finishing the business, Xiao Yao turned the topic to small talk again.

"We won't be here for long. We'll see you filming tomorrow, and we'll be back in Yanjing the day after tomorrow." Zhao Rui said, "Our film is in post-production, so we have to go back and watch."

"What about you two?" Xiao Yao looked at Lin Qisan again.

"We are more free." Lin Qisan smiled, "We don't need to take care of the post-production of the last two episodes of the TV series. But we won't bother you for a long time. We also plan to watch your filming tomorrow and leave the day after tomorrow, but we won't Shencheng, we are going to go to Inner Mongolia first, and then let Nina take me to her hometown."

"Oh!" Xiao Yao nodded.

Generally speaking, it is rare for a group visit to stay for two consecutive days. But these few are not ordinary cast visitors, and they are all actors, knowing the rules of the crew, they have to stay for an extra day, and Xiao Yao has no objection.

"By the way, which scenes are you going to shoot tomorrow?" Lin Qisan asked Xiao Yao with concern.

"Which shows do you want to watch?" Xiao Yao asked with a smile.

"Of course it's the scene of "I'm here to convince him"!" Lin Qisan laughed.

"Get out!" Xiao Yao said angrily, "There will be no night show tomorrow!"

"Then how about the haircut?" Nina looked at Sun Tingting, and continued, "Will you use a wig for that? You won't really cut Duo'er's hair, will you?"

A few of them had read the script before. Although I can't memorize the whole script, I still remember some special scenes.

"The haircut scene is still after the suit scene," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "If you want to know, just stay here and wait to see! Anyway, you are fine!"

"Don't!" Lin Qisan immediately said to Nina, "If we stay, we will definitely have to work, and it will still be unpaid! Bayi is just looking for two free laborers! Let's wait for him to finish filming and see the material You know, even if you can't see it, you can ask the people in the crew. There are so many people, you can definitely ask."

"I don't think the real haircut in that scene is the point!" Zhu Zitong interjected, "The biggest highlight is the whole scene! I admire Duo'er from the bottom of my heart for daring to challenge such a role, and even more so Yes, Bayi was so cruel to his girlfriend in the first drama! I really want to know when the characters played by other actors are scolding Duoer's character, and when cutting Duoer's character's hair, Bayi will I won’t be able to bear it, and then I’ll play! It’s a pity, we still have something to do, so we can’t watch how this scene is filmed on the spot, and we can’t see Bayi’s performance on the spot!”

"Ba Yi, can you tell us two days before the shooting of that scene, let us come and watch!" Zhao Rui said.

"They're all bad guys!" Sun Tingting laughed.

"If you say that, I will never tell you!" Xiao Yao said firmly, "I doubt that after watching that scene, you will press the director and screenwriter, that is, me, on the ground and hit me hard. Dun! Not only will I not inform you of the shooting time of that scene, but I will also ask the crew to keep it secret, and I will also close the scene during filming, and no one is allowed to enter the filming location to visit the set!"

"I'll go, do you want to be so ruthless!" Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan both said.

"But it's okay for you to watch the scene tomorrow!" Xiao Yao said, "Tomorrow we will shoot the scene of Zhang Yiman peeling garlic and singing. It should be the most beautiful scene in the whole movie. After watching it, You all go away, and don't come here again!"

"Really?" Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan both said, "When we grow up, we don't seem to have heard Duo'er sing seriously! Seeing this scene is not bad, it's not a waste of time."

"Is it almost enough to eat? I still have to film tomorrow, why don't I just stop here today?" Xiao Yao asked.

"Okay, let's go here!" The others nodded.

Early the next morning, Zhao Rui and the other four set off with the crew to the filming location in Dahebao Village.

Lin Qisan's judgment on Xiao Yao was indeed correct. With four free laborers, Xiao Yao didn't waste anything at all. He directly arrested the four strong men and arranged them to help the behind-the-scenes staff of the film crew to work.

Although the four expressed dissatisfaction, they still accepted Xiao Yao's arrangement and helped the crew do some things. Anyway, it's only for this day, and it's nothing to help with some work. Besides, Xiao Yao just arranged for two boys to help the photography and lighting teams move the equipment, and two girls helped the props team arrange the props. The work was neither difficult nor heavy.

After filming the indoor scene, the filming crew went outdoors to prepare to shoot the singing scene that Xiao Yao talked about last night.

Two long benches were set up, a basket of garlic heads was placed on one of the long benches, and Sun Tingting in a cheongsam sat on the other bench.

A gust of wind blew by, and a few hairs on Sun Tingting's head rose with the wind. Just this picture alone makes people look very comfortable.

"It's so beautiful!" Looking at the picture in front of her, Nina Aiguli couldn't help sighing again.

In terms of appearance, Sun Tingting is definitely higher than Ren Suxi in the original movie in her previous life, and her temperament is also more elegant, but when it comes to acting skills, Xiao Yao doesn't think Sun Tingting now can compare to Ren Suxi in her previous life when she played "Donkey Gets Water". At least not in terms of performance experience.

When Sun Tingting said that he would play Zhang Yiman in this movie, Xiao Yao actually hesitated. However, even if the plot is similar to the original movie in the previous life, Xiao Yao never thought about or could not make a movie that is exactly the same as the original movie in the previous life. Then it doesn't have to be that Zhang Yiman played by Sun Tingting is the same as Zhang Yiman played by Ren Suxi.

The so-called movie is the art of directors. The producer, director, and screenwriter of this movie are all Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao has enough power and freedom. Sun Tingting is not a vase who can't act. This role was shot well, so I still agreed to Sun Tingting. From the script to the shooting, Xiao Yao made many fine-tuning of details for Sun Tingting's characteristics. So far, Xiao Yao is still very satisfied with Sun Tingting's performance.

"Director, all groups are ready!" When Xiao Yao was looking at Sun Tingting and was also a little lost in thought, Ding Cheng, the executive director next to him, reminded in a low voice.

"Okay, all departments are ready!" Xiao Yao collected himself, stared at the monitor in front of him, and shouted into the walkie-talkie in his hand, "Get ready, a!"

"I want you by my side" Sun Tingting saw the record playing in front of the camera, bent down and reached out to pick up a garlic head in the basket in front of her, and began to sing while peeling

"It sounds good!" Standing behind Xiao Yao, Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan looked at each other and read the same message from each other's eyes.

This scene is not Zhang Yiman's one-man show played by Sun Tingting. From the moment she peels garlic and sings, the character Pei Kuishan will join in the middle, and the two will sit and chat together afterward. After the whole scene is edited, it is estimated that it should last more than three minutes.

A scene of more than three minutes is divided into several shots, including the part where Zhang Yiman sings, and it is not a long shot. However, because he didn't want Sun Tingting's singing part to be interrupted, Xiao Yao didn't split the shot in the part where Sun Tingting sang, and still shot it according to the requirements of the long shot.

This part of the scene not only has a long-range moving panoramic shot, but also a half-length mid-range shot of the two, as well as a close-up shot of Sun Tingting's hands. Since Xiao Yao shoots according to the long shot standard of one shot to the end, these shots are not shot separately, but are shot by several cameras at the same time, and finally edited together.

There are also several monitors in front of Xiao Yao, showing the pictures taken by different cameras. Xiao Yao, who can multitask, can pay attention to the pictures on several monitors at the same time, which also greatly improves the efficiency of shooting. Because he can notice the problem when he is shooting, instead of waiting to find the problem every time he looks back after the shooting.

Sun Tingting only sang for a little over a minute, but before Sun Tingting finished singing, Xiao Yao yelled to stop.

The reason why Xiao Yao yelled was not because Sun Tingting sang badly, which could have been re-recorded later through dubbing, but because there was a problem with the picture taken by one of the cameramen, and the shaking was too large.

The shooting site is a sloping land, and it is not easy to lay guide rails, so the panning lens is completed by the cameraman with the force of a robot. Xiao Yao knew that the movement of people could not be compared with the guide rails, so he allowed the screen to slightly shake up and down, but the magnitude of the shaking was too obvious to be seen by people at a glance.

After a bit of adjustment, the crew quickly started shooting the second one. There was no problem with the shooting of the second article, and it passed smoothly.

After the filming of the whole scene was completed, the crew entered a short break.

Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan also came over and asked Xiao Yao, "You also wrote the song Duoer sang just now? What's the name? What's the whole song like?"

"Of course I wrote it." Xiao Yao smiled, "How about it, sounds good?"

"Don't be complacent, which one of the songs you wrote will not be good for us!" Zhao Rui said, "What's the name of the song?"

"The name of the song is "I Want You"!" Xiao Yao said.

"I'll go, such a straightforward song title!" Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan said together.
