Entertainment: Start from the unexpected
34. Finished
Although the heat in the mountain city in July makes people dizzy, this cannot stop Mo Wen and his crew from being enthusiastic about filming the movie Crazy Stone. Mo Wen and his crew are renting an old temple and a nearby one.
After building a private house, we started shooting crazy rocks.
Since they are all unknown low-level actors, the one with the highest status is Xu Lang, who plays Feng Dong.
Xu Lang was promoted to a third-rate actor because he once starred in a high-quality TV series. However, he has no more good works since then, so his ranking among third-rate actors is middle-to-lower.
.
As for others, such as "Guo Lang" who plays the male lead Bao Shihong, "Liu Ye" who plays Dao Brother, and "Huang Bo" who plays the black-skinned actor, they are all actors who are not in the upper class.
The other remaining actors, such as those who played supporting roles such as San Bao, Thief Mike, Xiao Jun, Si Yan, Xie Xiaomeng, Lao Xie, Bao Shihong's wife, and Dao Brother's lover, are basically at the level of public figures.
Even for some actors whose appearance rate was not very high, Mo Wen didn't bother to look for them and directly found some extras to perform.
In addition, director Mo Wen is also a newcomer, so no media pays attention to their Sanwu crew, and Mo Wen doesn't have much spare money to hold a launch conference.
In this way, Mo Wen's first movie in this world was launched in obscurity.
Since Mo Wen has no requirements for the quality of the movie, basically as long as there are no major mistakes, such as actors laughing, forgetting the words halfway through the lines and stopping, or other mistakes that will affect later adjustments, Mo Wen will
Wen Cai would ask the actors to reshoot, and basically everything else was done in one step.
In addition, these main characters are all played by relatively dedicated actors, and there are relatively few major mistakes, so Mo Wen's filming progressed very quickly.
The film was only about 100 minutes long in total, and with Mo Wen's extreme pursuit of speed, it was all shot in less than ten days.
This gave rise to an idea in the minds of several main actors. Is this new director simply unaware of the importance of film quality, or has his acting skills improved to the point where he doesn't even need ng to make a film?
There were even many times that Guo Lang and Liu Ye, both veteran actors, felt that they did not perform well and wanted to do it again, but Mo Wen told them that the filming was very good and they needed such effects.
.
Mo Wen's words at the end made the two actors almost quarrel with the director Mo Wen. They also told Mo Wen how important the quality of the movie was, how it was different from the online shorts, etc. If it was such a shoddy movie, it would affect
If their reputation were like this, they would stop filming.
Mo Wen also knew that although veteran actors like them were not high-level, that was because they did not have the chance to star in the leading roles in popular film and television dramas, otherwise their level would have been upgraded long ago.
Mo Wen knew very well how seriously veteran actors like them took movies. But Mo Wen couldn't say it clearly. He could only say that they would know whether it was good or not after watching the finished movie.
It's just that these two veteran actors didn't believe Mo Wen, a young boy who had just graduated. They thought Mo Wen was too young and had never made a movie before, so they thought they had made a high-quality online comedy short film that was expected to become a hit.
The drama is unrivaled in the world.
Therefore, these two veteran drama stars started to compete with Mo Wen and repeatedly asked Mo Wen to film according to their ideas.
But as a director, will Mo Wen get used to them? Obviously it is impossible. Even Mo Wen respects them as actors who take movies seriously, but Mo Wen has his own ideas, and the existence of the system cannot be exposed.
Therefore, Mo Wen directly used his director's authority and even brought out the contract. He told them that if they wanted to film, they could film according to Mo Wen's request. If they didn't want to film, they would pay liquidated damages and compensate the crew for their losses.
Mo Wen found someone to play the role again.
When he signed the contract, Mo Wen had a careful mind to prevent the actors from making any mistakes during the filming process, so he wrote it clearly in black and white in the contract.
If the crew cannot continue filming due to the actor's fault, the actor will have to bear all the crew's losses. Although they saw this clause when they signed the contract, they didn't care much. As long as they acted well, nothing would happen.
If you do something illegal and get banned by the authorities, basically the film will not be filmed due to your own reasons.
If they stop filming now, then the responsibility will be theirs, plus liquidated damages, it will be a lot of compensation.
This made the two old drama stars dare not say anything anymore.
After all, both of them are low-level actors, and their salary for a movie is only about 200,000 yuan. They don't make much money in a year. How can they have money to compensate the crew for their losses and liquidated damages?
They even suspected that Mo Wen wanted to use this method to cheat actors like them from compensation and liquidated damages.
However, even so, they have no choice but to knock out their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs. Who can't afford it?
In the end, they could only bite the bullet and admit it. Even if the movie's reputation collapsed by then, there was nothing they could do about it.
In their view, they have taken the blame this time.
They can only hope that the quality of the film will be worse than they imagined, and it will simply fail to pass the review. In that case, the film will not be released, and their reputation will be saved.
Can Mo Wen make them achieve their wish? It is obviously impossible.
I have to say that an old actor is an old actor. Even though he and Mo Wen had a heated argument, during the final filming, he was still so serious and did not start acting badly because he was tricked by Mo Wen.
Instead, he shot this movie with the same serious attitude, which made Mo Wen admire these veteran actors even more. At the same time, Mo Wen also decided in his heart that he would make movies in the future, even if he didn't need to care about what happened during the filming.
In terms of quality, we should also try our best to find these veteran actors to star in the show.
Such actors are serious about filming and can help Mo Wen save a lot of filming time.
On the tenth day when Mo Wen and his crew came to the mountain city, Mo Wen announced that Crazy Stone had been completed after filming the last scene.
This decision made everyone on the crew extremely happy. The staff and other actors were happy that the filming was finally finished and they could leave the big furnace of the mountain city.
But those veteran actors were happy that the filming was finally finished and they no longer had to suffer the torture of Mo Wen, a newbie.
