Chapter 666 Is it safe?
Fan Binbin still has a trip in the country and cannot stay in Los Angeles for a long time.
So, since the crew started filming, she has always been putting her scenes in front of the filming.
It took about ten days to shoot, and Fan Binbin's scene was completed. "Director Wang, are you going back to China during the Chinese New Year?" Fan Binbin took a bite of salad and looked up to ask.
She had finished filming from the crew and had booked a plane ticket to return to China. Before leaving, Wang Shu specially invited her to dinner.
However, as a female star, Fan Binbin has been managing his figure.
It’s not that Wang Shu was stingy and didn’t invite her to have a big meal, but that she wanted to have a salad.
Whatever celebrities talk about is nonsense.
As long as you don’t want your figure to get out of shape, or your face will become round, etc., you need to strictly control your diet.
For example, Sun Li, her eating habit is boiling vegetables.
Not only do you need to cook the vegetables with white water, but also add some oil and salt that the human body needs every day.
Even if it is meat, it is lean meat boiled in white water.
Although the taste is far-fetched, eating this way is indeed healthier than stir-frying and can effectively manage your body shape.
Because people are thin and have obvious bone shapes, it is easier to manage facial appearance.
If a person is fat, not only will his figure be distorted, but his facial appearance is also difficult to manage as he grows older.
Wang Shu is young now, so he can still make some.
When you are over thirty years old, you have to pay attention at all times. "It's not sure yet." Wang Shu replied.
Fan Binbin also knew it was too early to talk about this topic, so he asked again: "I heard that musical and dance films are out of date in the United States. Are you confident that you will nominate for an Oscar for this drama?"
After so many days in Los Angeles, she has learned that musical and dance films have come to an end in the United States. Now, not only is no one making such movies, but no one even invests in them.
I also learned that if this song and dance film was not Wang Shu's project, Paramount would not have invested at all.
This made her feel a little nervous. She wouldn't have traveled all the way to the United States and let Wang Shu get cheated?
"Of course!" Wang Shu responded without comment. He guessed what Fan Binbin was thinking, and then said, "Although the musical and dance film has long declined in the United States, it does not mean that the musical and dance film is dead."
"And, the musical and dance film has been declining for a long time, and suddenly one suddenly appears, maybe it will make people shine."
"In addition, I have confidence in the story of this drama, so there is definitely no problem with nominating the Oscar."
When Fan Binbin saw that Wang Shu was so confident, his vague suspicion and unreliability disappeared a lot. She blinked and asked with a smile: "Then... do you think I have the chance to nominate the Oscar?"
This refers to the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.
Wang Shu smiled and responded: "You performed well in this drama, but Hollywood is not short of actors with acting skills, and the competition is very large."
"And, whether you can nominate is still necessary."
"As long as the operation is done and the performance is indeed remarkable, you can basically be nominated."
"As for whether you can win the award in the end, it depends on whether the old men in the academy like it."
"Old man? Like it?" Fan Binbin widened his eyes.
Wang Shu smiled and said, "Oscar is a local American award, and its nature is similar to that of our domestic Huabiao and Golden Rooster."
"But it has the greatest influence in the world."
Fan Binbin actually knew this in his heart.
Local awards must have local characteristics, which is something that cannot be avoided.
She pouted and said, "I heard that, it should be difficult for me to be nominated for my first time in a Hollywood art film."
Wang Shu kept a smile on her face and said, "Many Hollywood actors are not nominated for their first time in an art film. They have only been nominated for many art films."
Fan Binbin sighed when she heard the words. It was not her first time in an art film, but she had acted in Chinese art films before.
In Hollywood, many actresses were nominated for acting in many art films, and she was just the beginning.
It is indeed difficult to be nominated at the beginning.
Because there are so many powerful actors in Hollywood, everyone is operating the Oscars every year, and the competition is too big.
Fan Binbin felt that she did not have the corresponding connections to operate, so he looked up and looked at Wang Shu.
As the director of Lianzhuang Oscar, Wang Shu believes that Wang Shu must have corresponding connections and relationships.
If Wang Shu could help her, she might have a chance to get nominated.
If you don't help, you can only leave it to fate.
She bit her lip and asked, "Shu, do you operate every year?"
Wang Shu guessed Fan Binbin's purpose, but in order to ensure the value of the little gold man he received, of course he would not admit it, and then said, "No operation."
After saying that, he felt that the answer of these four words was too pale, and then explained, "I am nominated for Oscars and won the award for two movies here."
"The first one was "Wolf of Wall Street". It was in the global financial crisis and the movie was in a huge momentum. Then it was successfully nominated for the Oscar and won the award."
"The second one was "The Fantasy Drift of the Young Pi", which was adapted from the best-selling American novel. It has always been called the most unlikely work of film and television in the United States."
"Then I made it, and it was quite successful. The movie responded a lot after it was released, and it was also very artistic."
"So it was nominated and won the award naturally."
"It really didn't work."
>"
After hearing this, Fan Binbin was half-believing and half-doubted, and always felt something was wrong.
The Wolf of Wall Street is a huge hit, and it is understandable to win the award.
Although "Pi's Fantasy Drifting" is indeed very artistic, without the "massive momentum", the Oscars cannot make a young director from China Lian Zhuang!
But if it is said that Wang Shu won the prize through operation, it is wrong.
As we all know, Oscars do need to operate.
The purpose of operation is to obtain a nomination.
Whether you can win the prize in the end is not something that can be achieved by operation.
Since Wang Shu is Lianzhuang, this is not a matter of whether it is operating or not, but those in the American Film Academy recognized "The Fantasy Drift of Pi".
So... Wang Shu is really not working?
Fan Binbin always feels something is wrong, but he can't find any problem.
In the end, he had to smile and praise, "Awesome!"
Wang Shu smiled and did not answer this. After a meal, Fan Binbin did not go back to the hotel directly.
But follow Wang Shu back to the apartment.
All adults, and the lonely man and widowed woman live together in the same room must be talking about their life ideals.
Because Wang Shu was strong, he did not use a small umbrella in the first half of the way.
He looked at Fan Binbin with hazy eyes and asked, "Is it safe?"
Fan Binbin bit his lip, nodded first, and then shook his head.
Wang Shu saw this and said, "Then don't care, just..."
When Fan Binbin heard this, he neither agreed nor refused, but just opened his mouth.
And this is the default in Wang Shu's eyes.
In September 2010, "La La Land" was still filmed in an orderly manner.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
This film is related to other movies in many ways, such as the tribute to old Hollywood movies in the film, and the use of other old movies in the film.
The advantage of using these old movie shots is that there has never been a film that sets the background in Los Angeles, and the details about Los Angeles can be seen everywhere on the screen of La La Land, which is why this film focuses so much on real scenes.
Even in old songs and dance films, these scenes can be completed in open-air sets or studios, but "La La Land" is about showing Los Angeles in real scenes.
So, in addition to having good story skills, the shots in the film are very consistent with the tastes of old men from the American Film Academy.
Although Wang Shu can now complete it in the studio, he still strives for real scenes.
It is precisely because he knows that the real-life scenes in Los Angeles are also one of the necessary conditions for winning the Academy Awards.
In addition, the shooting method of "La La Land" is also different from conventional shooting. Photography is completely driven by the emotions of the film. The camera participates emotionally in the play, and the photographer emotionally decides whether the camera is pushed closer or given a reaction shot.
For example, when actors are having fun at a jazz club, or when actors are dancing, the camera also needs to shine the camera back and forth, changing with the actors' emotions.
In addition, Bu Guang's concept also takes into account the mood of the movie and uses light to tell stories.
For example, when the spotlight is on the actor - when the light changes from the lighting of the real scene to a more dramatic lighting, it is like using the spotlight to emphasize the dreams of the characters in the movie, creating an emotional connection between the audience and the characters.
These are very interesting shots that can create intimate connections with the actors. This is not only special for the characters, but also for the audience. When the camera is pushed closer, you will see the lights change, which will also touch the audience's emotions, just like the emotional communication between the audience and the characters.
Generally speaking, using a camera to shoot and tell stories has to follow specific rules. However, in the movie "La La Land", the camera is "free".
Wang Shu knew very well that the success of "LaLaLand" was not only LaLaLand-like emotions that made many people feel and resonate, but its shooting techniques were also very important.
In order to perfectly shoot this video, Wang Shu basically used various details when Damien Chazerre filmed the movie.
At present, the effect is very good.
…
"Shu, I hope there is still a chance to cooperate in the future." Alexandra Dadario said to Wang Shu with a smile on his face before leaving.
Since the filming of "La La Land", it has to take care of Fan Binbin's itinerary, and has always put the supporting roles in front of the filming.
Now, Alexandra Dadario's scenes have been filmed and will leave the crew.
As for Lily Collins, she has finished filming and left before.
Wang Shu smiled and said, "You are a very excellent actor. If you have the chance in the future, you will definitely cooperate."
Alexandra Dadario pursed his lips when he heard this. This was obviously a polite word.
However, after finally meeting a big director like Wang Shu, she didn't want to miss the opportunity. She said, "Shu, this is what you said, I will remember it in my heart."
After saying that, he said, "Do you know? Since I came to the crew, my friends around me have been asking me about you, and many people are envious of me for being selected as the second female lead."
Alexandra Dadario clearly remembered the audition scene at that time. Wang Shu just glanced at her and decided that she would play the second female lead.
As one of the film investors, Paramount has no objection, but instead accepts Wang Shu as a casting player.
This scene left a deep impression on her, making him clear that a great director like Wang Shu could decide the role in a play at will.
Especially in the crew, through conversations with Ryan Gosling, I also learned that the male lead like Ryan Gosling was selected like she was on the day of her audition, which made it clear that this point.
As for Emma Stone, Alexandra Dadario knew in his heart that the other party was Wang Shu's friend.
She also has a rough understanding of how Emma Stone was selected as the heroine by a big director like Wang Shu.
It was not only her, but Ryan Gosling also had speculations, so in addition to the necessary filming in the crew, he kept a distance from Emma Stone to avoid making Wang Shu angry.
Alexandra Dadario saw all these.
So she probably guessed how Emma Stone got on the top.
She didn't think anything was there about this.
Because things like Hollywood are so common, nothing strange.
Wang Shu laughed and didn't answer.
Ashesenra Dadario saw this, he immediately said, "Tree, I'll leave the crew today, have a meal together tonight?"
Wang Shu thought that no matter how much the other party said, he was the second female lead in the crew, and it was a bit bad for him to refuse, so he replied, "Okay, I'll treat you."
Alexandra Dadario was not polite when he heard the words. Then he chatted with Wang Shu for a few words and agreed to meet in the evening.
…
In the evening, Wang Shu and Alexandra Dadario met at the agreed restaurant.
Although Alexandra Dadario's scenes have been completed and left the crew, the crew of "La La Land" is filmed in Los Angeles, and both Wang Shu and Alexandra Dadario live in Los Angeles, so even if her scenes have been completed and left the crew, she can meet again at any time.
The two sat in the restaurant eating Western food. Alexandra Dadario talked about the crew: "Shu, you seem to be very strict with Emma when you were in the crew?"
After saying that, "But even though you are strict with her, you have always been patiently helping her."
"I feel... I treat us a little differently than when I treat Emma."
Wang Shu did not hide it when she heard this, and said the truth: "Emma talked to me before joining the group again. She made her own request, and hoped that I would be strict with her."
"Actually, I mainly encourage actors in filming, and I don't like to strictly treat actors and put pressure on them."
"That is, Emma strongly asked me to treat her strictly, so that's what she did."
After hearing this, Alexandra Dadario was stunned at first, and then suddenly realized: "Emma wants to win the Oscar?"
Wang Shu nodded: "She does have this idea, so she asked me to be strict with her."
Alexandra Dadario opened his mouth and immediately said regretfully: "Shu, can my scene be remade? I also want you to treat my performance in the play strictly!"
