Chapter 255 Big Shot
Bai Yu was also brought in to make a guest appearance.
As a professional TV host, Bai Yu's performance has always been stable.
Although in the hearts of Wu'an people, Tong Bin and Li Shiqing are the best candidates to host the talent show, how many Wu'an people do Zhang Huanchun and Zhao Qianshan know?
The host's actor was recommended by Sun Tao. Zhang and Zhao asked about a sister from Wu'an TV station and tried the camera. There was no problem at all. She was just a supporting role and they didn't consider anyone else at all...
……
Sun Tao (Charlotte): "If you change my lyrics casually, it's superfluous! I think you'll get angry..."
A few minutes later, Sun Zhen, the cousin who imitated the young Sun Tao, was beaten again by Sun Tao (Charlotte), "Ahhh..."
[Crack, click, click! 】
[Teacher Sun, stop fighting, stop fighting, the director even shouted "Ka". 】
……
Someone in the audience asked in confusion:
[Hey, do any of you understand why Sun Tao beat that child? 】
[Didn’t he say that looking at him makes you angry? This is a bit puzzling. 】
[Oh shit, what kind of intelligence do you have, don’t you understand? 】
【Then please explain...】
[Look, the person played by Sun Tao now is named Xia Luo. He was reborn in 1997. After Xia Luo was done, he copied the superstar Sun Tao. Now the kid being beaten is Sun Tao himself, who just went to technical secondary school. 】
[Oh oh oh, I understand, Charlotte is afraid that Sun Tao will grow up. 】
[Shit, this is a drawback. Have you noticed? The most critical problem here is that Sun Tao is not that famous! 】
[Yes, it’s okay for us Wu’an people to see. If this were placed in other cities, who would know who Sun Tao is? 】
……
Zhao Qianshan walked out from behind the monitor, "The effect is good, this is passed."
"Director, director" Sun Tao came over and said, "Director, I think there was something wrong just now. I also want to change the lines. Also, the "Northeast Folk Song" he sang just now seems almost interesting to me. I want to change it to "Human World" .”
Before Zhao Qianshan could speak, Zhang Huanchun said first, "Sun Tao, you have too high demands on yourself. I think your performance this time has been very good. You's shameful and angry mood is fully displayed, and what song you sing is not important. Generally, we just need to express our intention clearly. ”
Sun Tao hesitated, "But I'm still afraid that the audience won't understand?"
Zhang Huanchun chuckled, "Just listen to me on this. Filmmaking is like painting. It doesn't have to fill up all the canvas. Sometimes there are just a few strokes and let the audience experience it for themselves."
Zhao Qianshan said calmly: "Leave blank space and have room for imagination. The audience is not kindergarten children. You have to believe in their understanding. Also, making a movie is like cooking. The same dish cooked by different chefs will definitely not taste the same. According to me, it’s not a good dish if it’s stewed and melts in your mouth. I just like to make chewy ones, you know.”
Sun Tao, "Director, do you have any other arrangements for today?"
Zhao Qianshan looked at his watch, "It's already ten o'clock. The extras acting as the audience are almost ready to leave. Let's just shoot a few more angles and that's it."
Sun Tao exclaimed, "Director, let's do it again before the end. I'll add those two lines. You have multiple choices when editing."
Zhang Huanchun laughed and said, "Director Zhao, you saw it. You taught him two days ago that actors must learn to add and directors are the ones who do subtraction. He listened to everything."
Zhao Qianshan shook his head and said quietly, "Please lower your voice and discuss with me next time."
Sun Tao hurriedly wanted to explain, but Zhao Qianshan waved his hand, "I don't care about the director's authority. If you make a noise again in the middle of the night, you will make people hate you, you know?"
Sun Tao, "Yes, I understand, I understand. Director Zhao, you are right."
……
From half past six to almost eleven o'clock.
In fact, no one among the extras complained. When they arrived at Buckingham after five o'clock, each extra who acted as an audience received a meal ticket and had a free buffet. There were 10 extras who had no transportation in the evening. RMB taxi subsidy (but this cash payment is included in the filming cost of the movie.)
Zhang Huanchun leads a mature team, and Wu Min on Buckingham's side is very cooperative, so evacuation, makeup removal, etc. are all in order. All Sun Tao needs to do is to have a general understanding of the division of labor.
Jia Ling can become a director with tens of billions, why can't Sun Tao? Sun Tao is half shorter than Jia Ling?
Ma Dongmei and Qiu Ya, who had nothing to do with the audition plot, were also present. Tian Rui acted as a staff member under the command of the assistant director. Tang Yueyue sat in the stands and pretended to be an audience. There was no way, the crew's funds were tight and they could not afford to hire too many people. , if you can save a little labor cost, you will also make money.
Sun Tao approached Li Xiaojun, "Are you staying here tonight or going back?" "Stay here, I'll be the only one going back. Qinglei won't be back until tomorrow morning. Oh, by the way, can Sun Nan and Na Ying really come over tomorrow afternoon?" ”
"They have all booked their air tickets. If God doesn't cause trouble, we will land at 11 a.m. tomorrow. Wang Jun and Luo Yu will pick them up. Bureau Wang represents the government, and Boss Luo represents the investors. It is said that they even renovated a Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle."< br>
"Oh, why didn't Boss Luo come to watch the fun tonight..."
After Sun Tao and Li Xiaojun finished chatting, they caught up with Zhang Huanchun and left with the producer.
……
Li Xiaojun is Sun Tao's partner, and many young actors gathered around her to inquire about her welfare.
But there are really not many people who want to flatter Sun Tao.
The identity of a big star is actually a barrier. Just like when you see a Bentley, Ferrari, or Aston Martin driving by you on the road, everyone's first reaction is to stay away. Few people will say, "I'll go there." Leave him alone.
Of course, there are also people who want to buy luxury cars. There are many people who don’t have one, but they are definitely a very small minority.
Therefore, unless Sun Tao seems to be in a good mood and takes the initiative to come over to chat, even if a strange actor sees Sun Tao in the elevator, he will just smile and nod, and then huddle in a corner to keep a distance of more than 30 centimeters from him.
When traveling in the world, safety comes first.
If you are not familiar with the other party's character, don't flatter him even if you can't flatter him!
Safety comes first, but if the benefits are big enough, some risks are still worth taking, especially after they saw Sun Tao, Sun Nan, and Na Ying chatting and laughing the next evening.
——
March 2, 2003, Sunday, the 30th day of the first lunar month.
Today's shooting started at 2:30 in the afternoon.
At first it was announced at half past one, then it was changed to two o'clock, and then it was changed to two fifteen.
If it were another time, the extras would have exploded, but today was different. It was the first time that Wu'an welcomed a superstar-level figure. Although the information was strictly blocked, some people still found out through some channel.
Then it spreads from ten to ten...
Since nine o'clock this morning, there have been countless groupies holding signs and squatting in the cold wind at the gate of Buckingham, wrapped in down jackets and military coats.
Compared to the hundreds or thousands of people who were freezing outside, the extras were lucky to be able to wait in the air-conditioned room, and they knew exactly what the two big stars were doing, which was better than those who were waiting aimlessly. Much stronger.
[Everyone, please wait a moment. Sun Nan and Na Ying’s flight is a bit late, so they need to rest for a while. 】
[County Magistrate Chen, Bureau Wang, Boss Luo, Producer Zhang and Director Zhao are accompanying us for dinner...]
[Na Ying dragged Sun Tao and asked him to write a song for him. 】
[The two have been arguing for five or six minutes. If Sun Tao doesn't agree, I'm afraid we will have to wait. 】
[Damn it, why are Sun Tao so squeaky? People come all the way to support you and write songs for you! 】
[Yes, that’s what I said too. What Sun Tao did was not a manly thing. 】
[Sun Tao has embarrassed us Wu'an people. I even know his father. I'll call Sun Dashan and ask him to scold his son! 】
[Oh, that’s awesome, you even know Sun Tao’s father. 】
……
"Hey hey hey, everyone be quiet, everyone be quiet, we are ready."
In fact, there is no need for the assistant director to shout with a loudspeaker. Everyone saw it. Sun Tao was wearing a showman's costume and followed Sun Nan and Na Ying on the stage.
Na Ying was talking to Sun Tao with a smile, and Sun Tao nodded helplessly.
They seem like friends.
Everyone knows the simple truth that lions will not be friends with hyenas, so the people in the circle are the first to react.
Sun Tao felt that the tone of assistant director Ji Jianfu's words to him was softer.
