Chapter 53 The King of the Daughter Kingdom is also here (please collect the votes to read)
Fang Minghua was shocked.
Going to Gansu province to film in the cold weather?
Isn’t this suffering?
“Director Wu, I don’t know how to make movies.” Fang Minghua declined immediately.
"But you are both the author and the screenwriter. I want to communicate with you on the spot during the filming process to gain more confidence in controlling the storyline and scenes." Wu Tianmin's attitude was very sincere.
“However, our leader has just arranged a job for me and asked me to patrol and be on duty every night.” Fang Minghua pointed to the baton placed on the table.
"You don't have to worry about this. I will coordinate with our leaders and our president." Wu Tianmin replied immediately.
“Don’t worry, all your expenses will be paid by our crew this time, and there will be a daily business trip allowance. How about it?
For this reason, I It seemed unreasonable not to agree, so he nodded
"Okay, you make preparations first, and I'll coordinate with your leaders. By the way, bring more clothes. I heard that it's colder in Gansu Province than here."
Wu Tianmin rushed away excitedly, Fang Minghua was left alone in the room in a daze.
Hey. I just set up the stove and am about to leave before baking, and there is also this baton.
It seems that I can only wait until I get back on duty to find a chance to try it out.
Wu Tianmin’s request to second Fang Minghua to Gansu Province for filming was quickly approved after consultation between the leaders of the two units.
After Fang Minghua went home and told his parents, his mother, Zhang Fenglan, started nagging her again.
“I’ve been in that damn place for three years and it’s not enough? Do you still want to go? What does President Huang really think? Now that Xiaohua is a writer and not an educated youth, he still has to endure this hardship.”
But his father, Fang Changhe, choked back with just one sentence: "So what if he is a writer? Look at Liu Qing, who has passed away. He even quit his job as deputy secretary of the county party committee in order to write novels. He stayed in the countryside for 14 years! He How many months have you been there?”
“That was that time,” my mother couldn’t help but mutter.
"What happened to that era? Writers could write good works just by sitting in their rooms all day long? That's called making up nonsense! Those who write about rural areas can't tell the difference between wheat seedlings and leeks, and those who write about city people don't know the difference between wheat seedlings and leeks. It’s just nonsense to pay for a pound of flour!”
Fang Minghua hurriedly hid in another room, afraid of hurting innocent people.
Although my mother was nagging me, my son still made preparations for his business trip. He hurriedly prepared a new cotton jacket and cotton trousers for Fang Minghua, using new cotton. The cotton in the trousers alone used up a pound.
On December 1, Fang Minghua, wearing a military coat and carrying a travel bag, boarded the train heading west with Wu Tianmin's crew.
The crew of this year is far less luxurious than that of later generations. There are only more than 20 people, including photography, art, lighting, costumes, and necessary logistics personnel. As for the production director, producer, etc., they are all part-time , even Wu Tianmin himself plays multiple roles and also plays a guest role.
This time, Wu Tianmin, the hero and heroine, was not an amateur but a professional actor. He had already taken the train straight to the filming location.
Fang Minghua and Wu Tianming were sitting on hard beds. Fang Minghua slept on the upper bunk when he was young. He lay on the bed and stretched out his head to ask Wu Tianmin, who was sleeping on the lower bunk: "Director Wu, who will play the male and female protagonists this time?"
"Both are two newly graduated actors. The male is Li Baotian, who is from Shandong Province. He just graduated from Yangxi Opera this year. The actress is Zhu Lin, who also just graduated this year. She is from the Yandian acting training class and has just been assigned to the Emei Film Factory. , I guess you don’t even know it.”
What? !
Li Baotian?
"Prime Minister Liu Luoguo"? "Miracle Doctor Xilaile"?
Zhu Lin? The king of the daughter country? !
Oh my God, they are all very famous.
Fang Minghua’s eyes widened in surprise.
Fortunately, Wu Tianmin, who was sitting on the lower bunk, did not notice Fang Minghua's expression and continued: "Li Baotian was recommended by a friend of mine. I saw that his image and temperament are very similar to Ma Youtie, and Zhu Lin, In "Traitor", which was filmed at our factory last year, she played the role of a technician. I felt that she had great plasticity, so I asked her to come."
Hey. You asked such a beautiful daughter, the King, to play the ugly, sick, and dirty Cao Guiying. Isn't it too unfair?
Also, isn’t Li Baotian a comedy actor? How could he play the honest and honest Ma Youtie?
Fang Minghua muttered in his heart.
In fact, he didn’t know that Li Baotian was not acting in comedies when he was young, but in dramas on the big screen!
Li Baotian was a late bloomer, graduating from Yangzhou Opera in his 30s.
Cooperating with Lao Mouzi, he starred in "Ju Dou" as Yang Tianqing, a repressed man who had an affair with his aunt.
He once starred in the drama film "Phoenix Piano" and played the role of Principal Yu, a private teacher in a mountainous area. The performance was vivid and touching, and he won the Best Actor Award at the Government Award, Hundred Flowers Award, and Golden Rooster Award that year.
Later, he collaborated with Lao Mouzi and starred in "Shake, Shake, Shake to Grandma Bridge", playing the villain Tang Boss, the gangster leader of Shanghai in the 1930s. In the same year, he starred in "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo"!
He is definitely an experienced actor who acts like anything.
Of course I am still young and green now.
It is estimated that Wu Tianming does not have the resources and cannot afford to hire a big name.
The shooting location of "Into the Dust" was in Minqin, Wuwei, Gan Province, a small village near the edge of the desert. The crew took the train to Wuwei and got off the train and stayed for one night, then changed to a CMB. After rushing to Minqin, we finally changed to several donkey carts before arriving at a place called Lijia Village on the edge of the desert.
Lijia Village is not big, with less than a hundred households. About six or seven miles north of the village, across a Gobi desert full of red willow trees, there is a sea of sand.
The village party secretary is called Li Defu, an old man who is almost sixty years old. He even led the village committee team to greet him at the entrance of the village. After a while of greetings, he led everyone into the village.
The donkey cart entered the village, and so many outsiders suddenly came to the usually deserted village. The village suddenly became lively, and many villagers came out to watch.
It was freezing cold along the way, and the north wind was howling. Fang Minghua, wearing a cotton coat, cotton trousers and a coat, was still curled up on the donkey cart like a dog from the cold.
When we arrived at our destination, we got off the donkey cart and took a look.
Holy shit!
Is there a prop room needed to build the scenery?
Any house you look for is worse than what is described in the novel.
The crew was placed in a bungalow in the brigade headquarters, which has now been renamed the village committee compound. The conditions were the best in the village, but the crew could not accommodate them because of the large number of people. Later, they paid to vacate a few more farmers in the village. I finally settled down in the empty room.
The crew arrived at Lijiacun at noon. In the afternoon, local county and township leaders came to Lijiacun to visit the crew.
The people from Xiying Film Studio can go to such a remote place to film, and the local leaders also attach great importance to it. In the afternoon, they even treated the crew to a local special meal-"Three Sets of Cars", which is from Liang Zhouxing Noodles, braised pork and rock sugar round dates and Fu tea, are just like the Chinese New Year.
The crew arrived relatively early, and Li Baotian and Zhu Lin arrived at Lijiacun by car at noon the next day.
