Chapter 339 I untied it, the bow
The shooting and building of "Squid Game" is still very large and cost a lot.
But Xu Kong's scene was not filmed in the built venue, but was chosen at a subway station on the side of Kimchi.
Before shooting, I made an appointment with the relevant departments, but I didn’t encounter any major obstacles.
In this regard, it is mainly because of Feng Ge’s layout on the side of kimchi. Lin Hong had already decided to cooperate with several local companies in kimchi before.
In addition, the actors involved in the show and the crew also have people from the Kimchi side, so it seems so smooth.
This decision is obviously correct. It is impossible to build a framework based on the fact that it is all people in China.
It is a fact that "Sweet Honey" has a good box office here, and Xu Kong and Shang Yuxin are also quite popular.
But the choice of the actors in this drama to be the protagonist is not only to consider the audience's acceptance, but also how to successfully integrate into the film and television industry in the Kimchi area.
It is obvious that the companies on Kimchi are not monolithic. At least Fengge has given up some of the benefits to expanding overseas market this time.
This also allows the entire drama to be less trouble during the filming stage, including subsequent promotion and broadcasting.
…
During the shooting process, although the whole scene was only a few minutes.
But it still takes a lot of time from preliminary preparations to formal shooting.
The shooting process inevitably attracted the attention of some kimchi passers-by.
As a front-line actor, Park Ji-seong still has a certain foundation in this regard. Before the filming, fans asked for autographs and photos.
But unexpectedly, there were many passers-by who recognized Xu Kong.
The sounds awkward "Xu Kong Oppa" one by one.
And they are almost all young girls.
I have to say that no matter where you are, for ordinary audiences, appearance is indeed the first driving force.
In fact, Xu Kong is actually a little bit famous in the Kimchi area, which is the work "Sweet Honey".
Including the previous "Long Season", although it won the award, it is also a prize with great value here.
But only a few ordinary audiences who have really watched the whole show.
Due to cultural background reasons, although the drama was subsequently introduced to Kimchi for air, in fact, all the viewers who really watched it were only a small number of them.
And Xu Kong is not strictly the protagonist in "The Long Season". Although he is not very few in roles, he is definitely not the most outstanding character.
He mainly won the award as a director.
What really made Xu Kong famous was of course the photos taken by various media at the award ceremony.
…
Park Ji-cheng didn't expect that Xu Kong's popularity was quite high.
Although he is a powerful actor in the side of Kimchi, the idol trainees here are so rich in culture.
When he was young, he also debuted in a boy group for idols. Naturally, he knew that if Xu Kong really debuted on Kimchi, his popularity would probably be comparable to that of the most popular boy group idols in their country.
Of course, Xu Kong is obviously different.
Although he had never heard of the song written by Xu Kong, he had read "Sweet Honey" and knew that the script of "Squid Game" was written by the other party.
So although Xu Kong does have the face of being a Tiansheng idol.
But the other party's own talent and ability are the more outstanding aspects.
That is, Park Ji-cheng doesn’t know much, otherwise he would ask some passers-by in China.
You will know that Xu Kong is indeed different from some traffic idols.
Because of other so-called top stars, generally speaking, the proportion of female fans will reach a very high level.
But Xu Kong's words, in fact, there are actually more male fans at present.
And the discussions about Xu Kong rarely revolve around him, but are all discussions about works.
This is also the difference between traffic stars and normal singers or actors.
…
After the filming officially began, Park Ji-cheng personally experienced the acting skills of the young man Xu Kong for the first time.
In fact, this scene is strictly not a particularly difficult scene.
But if it were some young actors on their side of Kimchi, he was sure that more than 90% of them could not catch his scene.
Although Xu Kong plays the role of the whole scene, the protagonist is the weaker side.
But being unable to handle the play has nothing to do with the status and identity of the characters in the play.
But after one party invests, the other party will subconsciously experience stage fright.
As early as in the movie "Sweet Honey", it can be seen that the young actor Xu Kong, his acting skills are obviously much higher than his peers.
But when he was really playing against him, Park Ji-cheng realized that the other party's acting skills were not inferior to him at all.
Even in the handling of some details, it can be seen that Xu Kong has a lot of experience.
It seems that the whole person has really completely taken over the role he played.
…
"Teacher Park, is it okay?"
After the first episode, Xu Kong asked subconsciously.
It was mainly in the scene just now that he kept slapping the other party several times in the face.
Although it is not really hard-working and has used some skills when filming, it is definitely impossible for Park Ji-cheng to feel nothing at all.
Park Ji-cheng reacted slightly after hearing Xu Kong's words, and realized that the other party was talking about slapping him just now.
So he waved his hand immediately. "It's okay, Director Xu, you can use more force!"
Park Ji-cheng can still distinguish these basic professional ethics in acting.
I didn't think there was any problem with Xu Kong slapped himself in the face.
And Xu Kong did not use any special force either.
…
"Save another one!"
Director Yao Guanyu also spoke at this time.
In fact, he was quite satisfied with the first one.
If possible, he really hopes that Xu Kong can be the male lead for him later.
From the other party's acting skills and appearance, it has to be said that it is indeed quite attractive to the director.
Of course, he knew that it would not be that easy to realize this idea.
It is mainly Xu Kong's identity, not just a simple ordinary actor.
The other party is the director himself and a very outstanding screenwriter. Even if there are a roles that are particularly suitable or want to play, they are likely to be the director himself.
…
"If Teacher Park can, let Director Xu exert a little harder this time?"
Yao Guanyu was asking Park Ji-cheng for his opinion.
In fact, there is no problem with this kind of lens without real shots, but it is no problem with trying it out and seeing the effect.
The main thing is to see if Park Ji-cheng cares.
After all, I was slapped in the face. Even if it was filming, it was really a beating. If I came directly, it would be easy to offend people.
After listening to the translation, Park Ji-cheng immediately said that there was no big problem.
And he also took the initiative to tell Xu Kong that he would not have too much psychological pressure and just squeeze hard.
Xu Kong really has no psychological pressure.
It would be great if Park Ji-seong was a little bit like the annoying type of kimchi here.
It is probably more enjoyable to fan.
Paru Ji-cheng's words seem quite pleasing to the eye at the moment.
…
The shooting took place for about an hour in total.
I took a total of three shots, and Xu Kong was really hit on the next two times.
After the shooting, Park Ji-cheng's face was a little swollen.
Xu Kong was a little embarrassed and apologized twice.
But Park Ji-cheng seemed very dedicated and did not take it at all.
Of course, the person who beat him was Xu Kong.
If it were the young local actors on the kimchi side, they would probably have another attitude.
…
"What are the plans for the follow-up?" In the evening, in the hotel where the crew of "Squid Game" was located.
This is the second time that Xu Kong has talked alone with Yao Guanyu, a director who is not a few years older than him.
"Plan?"
Yao Guanyu didn't understand what Xu Kong wanted to ask.
Xu Kong continued to ask directly: "After the filming of this drama, do you plan to continue to develop in the overseas market?"
This is also a question Xu Kong wants to understand.
In fact, these three projects started together.
Xu Kong knew the other two directors that the upper limit of development could be seen.
Like Su Meng, although this "The Beginning" was a great success, Xu Kong also discovered during the filming process that the other party had a serious path dependence on filming.
This is probably also the reason why Su Meng only had the youth campus drama to achieve results before.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
In addition, Guo Jiayu showed good abilities this time.
But this is also because the military theme is in the other party's comfort zone, and Guo Jiayu is so old that the middle-aged man's energy is not as strong as a young man, and he can maintain a peak state at any time.
The only one with the highest upper limit is probably Yao Guanyu.
Young and have ideas, including this time in "Squid Game", the other party's handling method proposed in some parts made Xu Kong feel illuminated, even surpassing the original drama.
Therefore, Xu Kong, from the perspective of one of Fengge's bosses, really attaches great importance to Yao Guanyu's subsequent development route.
If possible, he wouldn't mind letting the other party develop towards the internationally renowned director's route.
…
"I haven't thought about these things."
Yao Guanyu shook his head and said truthfully.
He is actually a simple and simple person.
Especially when filming this "Squid Game", almost all my attention was focused on the shooting, and I never thought about the ones that were there.
As for what pursuit, of course there are.
But it is not so called success or fame, or it is not that utilitarian.
Otherwise, he agreed when Zhu Changyun invited him over.
"As long as there is a scene, it's great."
"Of course, if possible, I still hope to shoot more things I want to shoot."
Yao Guanyu said truthfully.
Xu Kong replied with a smile: "No problem with these."
He happened to have everything Yao Guanyu needs.
There is naturally no problem with the other party's directorial ability.
What I have been missing before is indeed a good story and script.
In this regard, no matter what subject matter, Xu Kong thinks he should be able to satisfy himself.
"Then set a goal first, so that you can become the most famous director in Kimchi."
Xu Kong's words did not include the qualifier of Chinese director.
In other words, he intends to allow Yao Guanyu to compete with many of the local directors of Kimchi.
…
"Sounds pretty good." Yao Guanyu also said with a smile.
He didn't doubt the authenticity of Xu Kong's words and whether they could be done.
In fact, in my heart, Yao Guanyu also has a very confident personality.
Before he changed, he might have doubted it a little.
But now that Xu Kong's script and help have made up for the shortcomings he has always been worried about, he didn't think that he was talking big or something.
…
"Where are you?"
After talking with Yao Guanyu, Xu Kong returned to his room.
I saw the message from Shanglu Tea.
He simply sent a seat directly.
The endorsement received by the other party, the place where the advertisement was shot and Xu Kong was shot in the same city.
It is obvious that Shang Yuxin's advertisement was also finished at this time.
"Room number, I'll come to find you!"
Seeing Xu Kongfa's location, Shang Yuxin naturally understood it instantly and replied quickly.
In fact, Shang Yuxin herself has a very cautious personality. If she is in China, she is likely not afraid to go directly to the hotel where Xu Kong is.
If you accidentally get photographed by a paparazzi, it will be a little troublesome.
Unlike Youyou, you have always been very brave. Almost as long as you have the chance to meet, you will go to Xu Kong without hesitation.
It was like in the crew hotel that I had done more than once or twice that secretly ran to Xu Kong's room in the middle of the night.
…
Not long after, there was a knock on the door outside Xu Kong's room.
He opened the room and saw a sneaky Shanglu Tea.
"No one should have noticed it."
Shang Yuxin said.
I was obviously relieved. "No one knows you again." Xu Kong said without caring about it.
Shang Yuxin couldn't help but retort:
"Who said that when I was filming today, I met fans who recognized me."
It is obvious that because of the popularity of "Sweet Honey", Li Qiao played by Shang Yuxin has indeed remembered many viewers of kimchi.
…
"I'm so exhausted. The advertisements on kimchi are much more troublesome than ours..."
Shang Yuxin lay down on Xu Kong's bed without any restraint.
"Is the shooting going smoothly on your side?"
She remembered something and asked.
Xu Kong nodded. "The filming has been completed, we should be able to go back tomorrow." Shang Yuxin suddenly sat up after hearing this.
"Don't, I finally came here once, let's go out for two days..."
For Shang Yuxin, when she was in China, she really didn't have much time to date Xu Kong alone.
It is difficult to have such an opportunity now, so of course it is impossible to let it go.
Of course, although it was not shown, Shang Yuxin was still a little nervous when she said this.
"Listen to you."
Fortunately, Xu Kong agreed without hesitation.
Shang Yuxin suddenly became happy. "Then I'll take a shower first." Shang Yuxin stood up and kissed Xu Kong gently, then walked towards the bathroom.
But halfway through, I seemed to remember something and suddenly came back.
Xu Kong didn't react until Shang Yuxin guided him to hold the bow on the collar of his clothes.
Shang Yuxin didn't wait for Xu Kong to take any action, but retreated by herself.
As the bow was untied, this well-designed dress fell naturally.
With Xu Kong's stagnation, Shang Yuxin retreated into the bathroom without giving him time to react.
Then a hand stretched out from the bathroom door and hooked his index finger towards Xu Kong.
