Chapter 52 Smirk
The next day, on the set.
“Yeah!”
Wearing a large-sleeved shirt made of pink silk fabric, with a little gold-based red face makeup on her eyebrows, this version of Zhou Zhiruo appeared in powder.
"There is a red dot in the middle of the eyebrows, and the red gauze covers the face..." Zhang Yuan looked like this and hummed in his heart.
Almost everyone in the Emei sect has this point between their eyebrows, which is called a red point, and some people call it cinnabar for wisdom.
Only the pattern between Master Miejie’s eyebrows is the most complex, with red and white colors, and from a distance it looks like a small elf ball.
This scene is the same as the day it was launched, with the six major factions still besieging Guangmingding.
It’s just that today we are filming martial arts scenes.
Gao Yuanyuan picked up the Yitian Sword, gritted her teeth and stabbed Su Youpeng in the left chest!
"Stuck!" Lai Shuiqing shouted to stop: "Passed."
Gao Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Zhang Yuan in the crowd and gestured to him.
For this scene, Zhang Yuan practiced with her for three hours last night. Just like that, it took five takes today.
Gao Yuanyuan has no experience in costume dramas, and no foundation in martial arts. For such a "clean slate" person, it is already very difficult to set a few moves to a standard.
“The next scene is a reaction scene, everyone is ready, the actors go to the designated position.”
Now Zhang Yuan has to come on stage.
The content of this scene is to film the reactions of the six major factions to the incident where Zhou Zhiruo stabbed Zhang Wuji with a sword.
When watching a TV series, the events and reactions are connected together, but when filming, you have to do it bit by bit.
The leading actors Gao Yuanyuan, Su Youpeng and Jia Jingwen are not in this scene.
Logically, they could go aside to drink water and rest, but there were more than just the three of them, and many people were watching.
Who are you looking at?
Of course it’s Zhang Yuan.
On the first day of filming, he became famous on the set for helping two directors solve a big problem. Later, he became even more at home at the flowing banquet dinner.
These people are all very curious now, is Zhang Yuan the great immortal of that temple?
As an actor, the most important thing is your performance on set. Humanity and sophistication are important, but professionalism is even more important.
Therefore, these people all wanted to see Zhang Yuan's performance.
""The Story of Heaven and the Dragon Sword", scene 8, first shot, first time, ACTION!"
Shaolin, Wudang, Emei, Kunlun, Kongtong, Huashan.
The actors from the six major factions stood in three rows, and there were about two hundred people including the extras. Some were holding weapons, some were standing with their hands behind their backs, and some were ready to move.
Song Qingshu, played by Zhang Yuan, stood in the front row and was in the C position in the crowd.
His C position was not snatched away like the little fairies of later generations, this was arranged by a serious director.
On his right are the Wudang people, on the left are the Shaolin people, and the one closest to him is Chen Xiuli, who plays Xiao Zhao.
In front of everyone, the assistant director pretended to gesture with a branch, treating it as Zhou Zhiruo's stabbing action just now.
Everyone in Wudang widened their eyes, and some even opened their mouths in shock.
The Shaolin actors on the side all bowed their heads, either with one hand, or with both hands clasped together to show compassion.
Chen Xiuli, who plays Xiao Zhao, is also a veteran actor. She immediately showed a look of panic and fear, and her bright eyes seemed to be able to talk.
Everyone performed step by step, but Zhang Yuan was different from everyone else!
There was no panic, no fear, no sadness, no surprise on his face.
He smiled!
The kind of evil smile that I want to hold back but can’t.
His reaction was completely contrary to everyone else's, and he was still standing in the middle of the front row, which made his behavior even more obvious.
"Zhang Yuan is stupid!" Upon seeing this, Gao Yuanyuan bit her nails nervously: "He actually laughed!"
There were nearly two hundred people in this group performance alone. The salary is tens of thousands a day, so the actors on the crew are very nervous, fearing that making mistakes and reshooting will affect the progress.
After all, the expenses and losses are too great!
Gao Yuanyuan's eyes glanced at Chen Xiuli next to Zhang Yuan.
"He couldn't help but giggle after seeing the beautiful woman."
Gao Yuanyuan's face immediately fell.
We trained together before, and often practiced alone with her. In addition to helping at the wine table, she quite liked Zhang Yuan.
But it was just a good impression between friends, so she didn’t think much about it.
Now she felt that Zhang Yuan was foolishly happy after seeing Chen Xiuli, and a raging fire called "unconvinced" suddenly arose in her heart.
"He never smiled stupidly when he looked at me!"
Su Youpeng and Jia Jingwen on the side were also stunned. Why did this person laugh in the first big scene? This is too unprofessional.
"This person is very sophisticated and has the ability to deal with problems, but he doesn't seem to be very good at acting." Jia Jingwen said in her heart as her almond-shaped eyes rolled around a few times.
"Could it be that he is from a related family or a son from a wealthy family?" Just when several people were doubting, director Lai Shuiqing waved to stop.
"Stuck!"
Then he gave Zhang Yuan a thumbs up.
“Zhang Yuan, it’s so good.”
Lai Shuiqing can speak Cantonese when excited.
Zhang Yuan also walked over with a smile: "Director Lai, don't smile too much."
"No, it's just fine." Lai Shuiqing smiled and patted his shoulder: "You have a good understanding of this character."
"Others are worried and nervous, but you have a crush on Zhou Zhiruo, and you still have a crush on Zhou Zhiruo. I found out that the relationship between Zhou and Zhang was unusual, and I should have laughed when I saw her hurting her love rival."
"And when others are in trouble, you are the only one laughing. This contrast is very effective."
“It’s amazing that you can think of this level by yourself.”
The character Song Qingshu can be summed up in two words.
Licking the dog!
Lick until the end with nothing left, even your life.
Uh... Gao Yuanyuan's eyes widened. It turns out he is not Shale!
"What's wrong with you?" Zhang Yuan asked with a strange look on her face.
“No, it’s nothing, Zhang Yuan, you acted really well.”
Fortunately, she didn't laugh at him immediately... Gao Yuanyuan looked at Zhang Yuan with a guilty conscience.
Su Youpeng and Jia Jingwen also looked at each other at this time, and then curled their lips.
They also didn’t expect that this smile was staged.
This mainland guy seems to be much more powerful than we thought.
While Su Youpeng was thinking, Zhang Yuan came to him.
"Brother Youpeng, there will be a fight scene between the two of us soon. This is my first time filming a martial arts fight. Why don't you go aside and compare our moves first?"
"Okay." Su Youpeng's attitude towards Zhang Yuan was obviously worse than that of Zhang Yuan. More enthusiastic before.
The crew is a small society. If you want others to respect you, you have to rely on your strength.
In martial arts scenes, almost all moves are set before the filming begins. The martial arts designers design the movements, and the actors perform the scene several times in slow motion. When filming officially starts, the fighting will start at normal speed.
Of course, there are also those who don’t use tricks, but both the offensive and defensive sides need to be trained and masters.
For example, in the scene between Wu Jing and Zhen Zidan in "Slaying the Wolf", there are very few tricks. Both of them have the foundation to really fight.
But it turned out that Wu Jing was also injured, with bruises under his ribs and almost a fracture.
So half of the trick is for appearance and convenience, and the other half is for safety.
It took half an hour for the two of them to go through all the moves in this scene.
"Zhang Yuan, don't be nervous when you are performing. If you feel something is wrong and you have forgotten the moves, you can stop. Don't be afraid, no one will blame you."
Su Youpeng was a very nice person and took special care of Zhang Yuan.
He also said the same thing before the scene with Gao Yuanyuan just now. Just like that, Gao Yuanyuan was NGed many times.
He thought that Zhang Yuan was a few years younger than Yuanyuan and had never filmed a fighting scene, so he was already prepared for NG.
"One you and one Zhu'er, that's enough..." After a while, Su Youpeng had a scene with Chen Xiuli first.
“Do you think this is human talk?” Zhang Yuan complained at the side: “Two are enough.”
Gao Yuanyuan grabbed a handful of melon seeds from his hand and nodded: "Indeed, Zhang Wuji is too carefree, I will just stab him with a sword."
Ah, is that so? I want to say four more I want them all...
Are you saying that Zhang Yuan eats melon seeds every day on the set and no one cares?
Lai Shuiqing, who also grabbed a handful from Zhang Yuan, ate while directing the play.
“Stuck!”
"Next scene, Zhang Yuan, the fight scene between you and your friends."
Zhang Yuan straightened his clothes and came to the camera.
This scene is about Song Qingshu overestimating his abilities for love, and Zhang Wuji taking advantage of the jade-faced Meng Chang.
This is also Zhang Yuan’s first attempt to defeat Wia.
Tie the rope, put on your coat, just waiting to start shooting...
