Huayu started as a lecturer at Beijing Film Academy

The second day of filming was mainly focused on the Thai child actors.

Neither Dante Lam nor Gu Zhongyu understood Thai, so they could only communicate through an interpreter, which was really annoying. Children's scenes were not easy to shoot, and it was difficult to ask them to do the same as an adult actor. However, the movie required that this place must show the cruelty of Nok Ka.

Moreover, the existence of child soldiers and their roles were based on real life.

According to the information provided by relevant personnel of the GA Department, these child soldiers were really kept by local criminals!

Although the Golden Triangle is full of poppy fields, it is still very poor. Drug dealers will capture some children and start training them at a very young age, using children to help transport drugs. At the same time, they are also attackers. In asymmetric warfare, child soldiers are the cheapest and most efficient weapons. They almost do not need to be recruited, only need cheap food, and can quickly grasp orders.

The movie needs these child actors to show their indifference!

Therefore, Gu Zhongyu retained a Russian roulette-style gambling in the original script, that is, let the two child actors perform taking turns shooting at their heads!

Lin Chaoxian probably explained a few words to the translator, and said the performance requirements later, and then the translator sister ran over to communicate with these child actors and their parents. By the way, the parents of these children accompanied them throughout the process!

After several test shots, it was not very smooth.

"Forget it, I guess they don't understand it either. I'll just make a sample and let these little actors learn it!"

Looking at the curiosity on the faces of these children, there was really no way. Gu Zhongyu thought he should teach them himself. After all, he was also a teacher at Beijing Film Academy, and Lin Chaoxian was not as familiar with this job as he was.

But when he taught seriously, he found that he was wrong!

Because these child actors are local children, they have not studied much and have no acting experience. When the crew selected them, they said that they wanted the energy in them!

It can make the movie look more real!

Unfortunately, due to local poverty and other reasons, these children have not received any education at all, which is what is called illiteracy!

It is really too much to expect these children under the age of ten to understand their intentions. Not to mention them, many young actors who are not professionally trained may not be able to accurately understand.

In the end, Gu Zhongyu decided to give up the idea of ​​​​talking about the play, and simply find a template for them to learn from!

The GA department was reluctant to show too many shots of these children in the film at first. Gu Zhongyu explained very well: "This is not to sensationalize, but I think the audience should see that drug dealers have serious problems behind them in addition to selling drugs, giving birth to XD people, and affecting social values!"

"I hope to arouse the audience's resonance that they must fight these criminals, so we must present this real world."

Gu Zhongyu insisted so much, and the GA department also felt it was necessary. What can the photoelectric say? Just be happy!

"Come on, let's try it first!"

Several cameras were quickly set up.

A bald man and a child with foam on his face sat face to face, and each of them took turns to shoot at his head.

After several rounds of byes, finally, the bald man fell in a pool of blood.

At the same time, the child who won the bet threw a lot of money and cheered excitedly for his victory, while the children watching were full of envy, and the child who fell was forgotten by everyone like an ant.

After watching this relatively cruel scene, Gu Zhongyu looked up at the sky with some melancholy.

Why do many people live different lives under the same blue sky?

Many people complained about why the country did not fight India and Japan, and clamored that they must let them know how powerful our country is!

It sounds reasonable. How can a great power rise without war?

A detailed analysis will reveal that this view seems to think that ordinary life is not exciting enough.

But they don’t know that an ordinary and stable life is the lifelong pursuit of residents of all poor and war-torn countries!

It’s better to be a dog in peacetime than a person in troubled times!

“Okay, this one passed!”

Dante Lam was very satisfied with the performance of the children and stood up: “Prepare for the next shot!”

The props team prepared props as usual, and the cameramen placed the cameras in their respective positions according to the previous rehearsal.

There is no need for lighting and light in the rainforest shooting for the time being, and there is no need to deliberately arrange the weather, so the scene change is still very fast.

The next scene to be shot is Song Ge, played by Vithayapanslingam, conspiring with Nok Ka’s men to usurp the throne.

Vithayapan Slingam is a real talent. He once won the Best Actor Award at the Shanghai International Film Festival!

However, I guess few people know about it. There is no way. Although the Shanghai Film Festival is an A-level film festival, its public persuasiveness is too small!

The Shanghai International Film Festival is really a bit too low. In the large scope of Chinese-language films, there are first the Golden Image, Golden Horse, and Golden Rooster, and then a bunch of township enterprise awards, such as the Changchun Film Festival, and then the Shanghai Film Festival!

The Golden Goblet Award of the Shanghai Film Festival has no credibility. It feels more like a film sales meeting, especially in the main competition unit. Many domestic films are unwilling to participate in the competition.

The Shanghai Film Festival is really speechless. As an international A-level film festival, it actually gave the "Film Channel Media Awards" Best New Director Award to Guo Xiaosi!

Not to mention, it also gave the "Film Channel Media Awards" Best Film to "Tiny Times"

Let’s talk about an even weirder thing. Even the “shit-eating” bad movie “Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains” was nominated for “Best Picture!”

hehe!

In 2016, Wen Zhang was nominated for the Best Director of the Shanghai Film Festival's "Asian Newcomer Award" for "Lu Yao Knows Ma Li";

Huang's film "Xuan Zang of the Tang Dynasty" won the "Best Film" at the Shanghai Film Festival's "Film Channel Media Award";

Wu Moumou won the "Newcomer of the Year" at the Shanghai Film Festival's "Movie Channel Media Award";

Xie Biwang won the "Best Actor of the Year" at the Shanghai Film Festival's "Movie Channel Media Award". Xie Biwang was busy with twelve jobs throughout 2015, and only made guest appearances in two movies... He didn't even have a supporting role in the movie. So-called "Love Sword" is actually a bad remake of a TV series;

In 2015, Dapeng won the Best New Actor at the Shanghai Film Festival's "Movie Channel Media Awards". Another registered nominee for Best New Actor is Lu Han!

But, no matter what, Vithayapan Slingam’s acting is really good.

The middleman who is responsible for passing the news is played very well!

…

Yaya looked at the script in her hand, frowned tightly, and walked up to Gu Zhongyu after a long time: "Zhongyu, can you teach me...XD how to act? I looked at my role, and everything else is fine. , but I don’t know what kind of experience XD is!”

Gu Zhongyu was stunned, holy shit! How could I possibly know what it's like xd?

Why don't you post a question on Zhihu?

"Well, you are injected intravenously, which should mean that your nerves will produce a huge sense of satisfaction. Your whole body will be light and your spirit will be very strong. Then you feel that you can do anything. For example, if you imagine that you are flying, then you will Fly. But when this energy passes, your whole body will become weak and you will feel like you have aged a few years!”

I probably memorized a fragment I read in a book.

Yaya was stunned.

She is the kind of actor who can burst into glory only when the compatibility between the character and herself reaches 70%, such as her famous work "Mother's Grace"

The lines and crying scenes were passable, but slightly more complex roles were a big challenge for her.

"...I just saw you teaching children how to act, wasn't it quite handy?"

"It's different. In fact, children can be taught casually and use it according to their own nature. But this... you need to understand it yourself."

When Zhang Jing first acted in "The Disciple", in order to make her role more realistic, she went to a rehabilitation center to communicate with those young XD girls for a whole month!

A famous movie actor once said: Apart from shooting you to death, actors should experience the rest.

He is a staunch supporter of the experience school!

Of course, there must be loopholes in this sentence.

For example, sex scenes, crime scenes, violent scenes, etc. are all restricted areas for the experientialists.

The method school is more flexible and can simulate part of it through emotional borrowing.

But XD is different. This stuff is illegal and very addictive. The consequence of your experience is to become addicted to drugs or be arrested by the police!

Therefore, the experientialists cannot experience it.

Methodists can’t substitute it. Unless you try it yourself, no one knows how it feels!

Of course, it was impossible for Gu Zhongyu to really get a tube of virus for Yaya and let her inject it!

So, I can only rely on Yaya’s own imagination.

"There is no rush to shoot today. In the past two days, I asked Lin Chaoxian to move your scenes back. You must find the feeling of a drug addict!"

Seeing that Yaya was still a little overwhelmed, Gu Zhongyu reminded: "This is the Golden Triangle, and there are many XD people. I will find someone to ask you later, but be careful to protect yourself and don't be curious!"

…

Gu Zhongyu didn't go out to fool around with Devika or Yaya tonight. What happened during the day gave him new inspiration. He decided to change the script and reimagine the story line about Fang Xinwu and his girlfriend.

First of all, my girlfriend cannot be a dancer. She can be a dancer who specializes in folk dance. I have known Fang Xinwu since childhood and are childhood sweethearts.

She was violated by drug dealer Xing Deng. He not only violated her, but also injected her with BD, and then she became addicted to drugs. After becoming addicted to drugs, she could not live without Xing Deng's control! Xing Deng learned that her boyfriend Fang Xinwu was the policeman who had been chasing her closely, and persuaded her to steal the information of the anti-narcotics police, and then...

Gu Zhongyu was busy writing a script when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. He thought it was the waiter who wanted to come in and clean up the room.

After a while, there was still a knock on the door.

Gu Zhongyu stood up from the chair in pain and saw a short-haired girl wearing a red suspender skirt through the peephole.

"It's so late, what are you doing?"

It's Wang Zhi, dressed quite sexy!

"If you don't come to me, you won't allow me to come to you?"

Wang Zhi gave her a charming roll of his eyes and slipped in minding his own business. After the two of them got along for a while, she was no longer as restrained as she was at the beginning.

"You sit on the sofa first and wait for me to finish writing!"

"I thought you were with that woman! I didn't expect you were actually writing a script."

Wang Zhi picked up a can of beer from the refrigerator and stood behind Gu Zhongyu to read his writing.

"...Fang Xinwu got the news and rushed to the theater. He happened to bump into Zhen and his girlfriend doing some shameful things, and then they got into a fight. During the fight, Fang Xinwu's gun fell off and she picked it up. Then, he opened fire He committed suicide by shooting himself..."

"Well, insert a few more scenes of the two of them being affectionate, and the emotional line will immediately become richer!"

As for what kind of scenes to insert, it's too simple, just let them show their affection nakedly, such as diving together, traveling together, etc.

"You, as a screenwriter, really know how to find benefits for yourself. Fang Xinwu's girlfriend is just a little plot, but you don't let her go, and even arrange some intimate scenes..."

"What are you thinking! Do I need to take advantage of this?"

Gu Zhongyu turned around and explained to her: "It is necessary to show the beauty of the love between Fang Xinwu and his girlfriend to the fullest, and then form a sharp contrast with the tragic end in the end, so that the audience can sympathize with the hero's experience more easily and stir up deep hatred for drug dealers!"

"You are the boss and you are the most important. Whatever you say is the truth! Come on, drink some~"

Wang Zhi gave Gu Zhongyu a sip and sat on the table, "The Tang Detective next door, Chen Sicheng and Yaya broke up after a big fight. Does this have something to do with you?"

"No... Why do you think so?"

Gu Zhongyu was puzzled. He was honest and had never had any intimate behavior with Yaya in front of outsiders!

"Very strange, from what I know about Yaya, she used to admire Chen Sicheng very much, even a little humble, how could she suddenly break up with him? The only explanation is... she met a man who is better than Chen Sicheng in every aspect!"

"What do you know about Yaya? Oh... yes! You two are classmates!"

Damn, I forgot about this!

Yaya and Wang Zhi are not only classmates in the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama, but they even live in the same dormitory.

And in the last life, when Yaya got married, Wang Zhi was the bridesmaid, and the two had always had a good relationship.

"Today, I accidentally talked about this topic with Yaya, and she was evasive and guilty... I was basically sure!"

Women's observation skills are really sharp, especially in this aspect... I didn't expect that the first person to discover the relationship between the two was Wang Zhi.

"If so? Are you going to stand up for your best friend?"

"I'm so happy for her!"

Wang Zhi actually never liked Chen Sicheng. She felt that Yaya was not worthy of him, especially after having dinner with them a few times, she felt that this man was really greasy and narcissistic!

This time her best friend took the initiative to break up with him, and she couldn't be happy enough!

Although Gu Zhongyu, who she found, was also a scumbag...

But scumbags can be divided into different levels. Although Gu Zhongyu was a scumbag, his attitude towards women was much better, unlike Chen Sicheng, who always liked to PUA Yaya and lift himself up.

Or maybe Wang Zhi didn't know Gu Zhongyu well enough. If he really became a scumbag, Teacher Chen couldn't catch up even if she flattered him!

It's just that she and Yaya happened to be the women that Gu Zhongyu couldn't bear to be a scumbag!
