Zhou Yan woke up the next morning. Just after washing up, the phone on the wall rang.
The call was from Zhou Hong, calling them over for breakfast.
After Zhou Yan hung up the phone, he patted Wang Zuxian's thigh, "Get up and go to my second brother's place for breakfast."
Wang Zuxian opened his eyes in a daze and complained, "I was able to have a good sleep last night. It's all your fault."
"I was the one who worked hard."
Wang Zuxian asked strangely, "How come you are more energetic after losing weight?"
In order to adapt to the role of the male protagonist of "Space Traveler", Zhou Yan has been losing weight during this time, trying his best to look as good as possible Be thinner.
During his weight loss period, he didn't eat much, but he did a lot of aerobic exercise.
His body fat is not very high. A lot of the weight he lost during this period was muscle, making him look much thinner.
In Wang Zuxian's opinion, Zhou Yan's physical condition will decline if he loses so much muscle.
But because he did more aerobic exercise, his physical strength got better, and his energy every day was even stronger than before.
Zhou Yan kissed Wang Zuxian on the forehead, "You get up and wash up and change clothes. I'll go for a run."
"Yes." Wang Zuxian nodded, got up and walked to the bathroom.
Zhou Yanze went out for a run wearing a sports suit.
The planning of Yijing Garden is very good, the green area is quite large, and the air is very fresh in the early morning, which is very suitable for running.
Zhou Yan didn't run far, just running circles on the inner roads of the community.
On the way, he also met several morning joggers, many of whom were wearing tennis hats. It seemed that the purpose of the hats was not to protect them from the sun, but to prevent them from being recognized by others.
Half an hour later, Zhou Yan returned to the villa sweating profusely, took a quick shower, changed his clothes and went next door with Wang Zuxian.
Breakfast is not that rich. There are only three small soup dumplings on the table and one bowl of wontons per person.
Whether it is steamed buns or wontons, they are all handmade by Wu Ma. They taste very good and are very suitable for the taste of Jinling people.
There is also a small jar of spicy oil on the table, and the taste is very authentic.
After Zhou Yan and the others finished eating, Wu Ma brought out another small box.
"Third Young Master, these are the wontons I made myself. They can be frozen in the refrigerator. When you want to eat them, you can just take them out and cook them."
Zhou Yan did not refuse, smiling. She took the box and said, "Thank you, Mother Wu."
Seeing Zhou Yan take the box, Mother Wu was all smiles, "If you like to eat, I usually pack more and have someone deliver it to you regularly. ”
"It's too troublesome. If we want to eat, we can just come here." Zhou Yan smiled and said to Zhou Hong, "Brother, we are going to the end of the competition. I will see if I have free time in the next two days and I will go to the company with you. Look over there."
Zhou Hong sat on the sofa and did not get up to send it off. Hearing Zhou Yan's words, he just nodded, "Well, just follow the shooting process in your own time. If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to tell me. After all, I have been here in Pengcheng for a long time and most of the problems can be solved.”
...
Zhou Hong’s driver took them to the end of the competition field. The treatment was the same as yesterday, with Silver Thorn in the middle and two cars in front and behind protecting them.
The car drove directly to the village and stopped in front of the house where they were filming.
At this moment, many people from the crew gathered at the door of the house. When they saw three cars approaching in a row, everyone showed doubts.
The appearance of the Silver Spur is very eye-catching, and even people who don’t know anything about cars can tell at a glance that it is expensive.
Of course, most people don’t dare to think about the price of a car above 10 million.
People like Jiang Mengfei, who likes to study cars, recognized the Silver Spur at a glance. He had seen this car many times in car magazines, but had never seen it in real life.
Seeing the Silver Thorn appear at this moment, Jiang Mengfei's eyes widened, thinking that some rich man had come here.
Although the scenery at Jiaochangwei is beautiful, there are few tourists nowadays. Ordinary cars are rare, let alone luxury cars.
The car stopped less than ten meters in front of Jiang Mengfei, and then the rear window lowered, revealing Zhou Yan's face.
Seeing Zhou Yan appear, everyone was stunned.
The reason why they were surprised was not that Zhou Yan could not afford such a luxury car, but that Zhou Yan had always lived a simple life, and he never went out in such a grand manner.
Zhou Yan waved to Jiang Mengfei, who was in a daze, "Mengfei, come and take us to where we live."
Jiang Mengfei finally realized what he was doing, ran over and sat in the passenger seat.
Entering the car, Jiang Mengfei looked up and down excitedly, "Old Zhou, does this car cost more than 10 million?"
After asking, he turned around and saw the smiling man Wang Zuxian, he said with some embarrassment, "Teacher Zuxian is here too."
"Well, I came with Director Zhou."
Zhou Yan also said, "Take us to the accommodation, put down the luggage first, and then take me to the crew's conference room."
"The accommodation and office buildings are next to each other, just in front, away from It’s only about a hundred meters here.” After that, Jiang Mengfei said to the driver, “Brother, just drive towards the front and stop at the blue outer wall.”
The road inside the village is good. , about a hundred meters away, in the blink of an eye.
After getting off the car, Jiang Mengfei said that he was going to help Wang Zuxian get his luggage. As soon as he got off the car, he found that two people had already taken away Zhou Yan's luggage.
He was also happy and relaxed, and led Zhou Yan and the others into a courtyard.
"Director Zhou, this is Courtyard No. 1. It has four rooms, housing three people, and a study room. In addition to you, there are Zhao Fei and Director Xiao. Your room is on the east side of the second floor."
< br>When no one else is around, Jiang Mengfei will call Zhou Yan Lao Zhou, but now that Wang Zuxian is here, he will definitely call him Director Zhou. In this regard, he has always been measured.
Zhou Yan followed Jiang Mengfei upstairs and took a look. The accommodation conditions here were very good, and the mattresses and bedding were all new.
The study room is also well decorated, with two desks and a computer.
Although Zhou Yan does not advocate hedonism, he has always been willing to spend money in this regard. Everyone has to endure insurmountable difficulties, but Zhou Yan is more willing to improve such conditions that can be improved.
After Zhou Yan's luggage was put down, Jiang Mengfei took Wang Zuxian to Courtyard No. 2 next door.
Yard No. 1 and Yard No. 2 are both two-story buildings. The two houses share a wall and are completely next to each other.
"The four rooms in Courtyard No. 2 are all occupied. Chen Derong, Li Xiaoran and Teacher Xie Fang have already moved in. Teacher Zuxian, your room is on the west side of the second floor."
Although the rooms of Wang Zuxian and Zhou Yan are in two courtyards, they are actually next to each other. Not only do the two rooms share a wall, but the corridor outside is only separated by a one-meter-high wall, which can be climbed directly past.
After their luggage was settled, Jiang Mengfei took them to the office area.
The office area is an independent house with a large area. Two rooms on the first floor are used as canteens, and a conference room and a screening room are arranged on the second floor.
They did not bring development and printing equipment this time, so they did not set up a "little dark room". The film they shot would be sent directly to Pengcheng Studio for their help in developing it.
After walking around the office area, Zhou Yan was quite satisfied. Liu Qing and the others were very well prepared and considered many details.
Compared to the end of the scene, they didn’t shoot many scenes. They were mainly concentrated near the hero’s house, but there were a lot of scenes. Over the next month or so, they would spend at least half of their time here. Otherwise, Zhou Yan wouldn't have let them prepare.
After visiting the accommodation and office areas, Zhou Yan and the others went to the hero’s house.
They walked there. After putting away their luggage just now, Zhou Yan asked the driver and assistant to go back.
The people who had gathered at the door just now were still there. Seeing Zhou Yan and the others coming, everyone greeted them one after another.
Zhou Yan looked around and asked, "Where is Lao Zhao?"
"Teacher Zhao is inside, I will go in and call him." Shen Yan volunteered and ran in to call Zhao Fei out.
After seeing Zhao Fei, Zhou Yan asked with a smile, "How is it, Lao Zhao, how do you feel after stepping on the dots for a few days?"
Zhao Fei was also in a good mood and said with a smile, "The scenery here is very nice and it is easy to make a film. I have already settled most of the points, but I have to discuss the details with you."
Zhou Yan Diandian He said, "Then don't waste time. In the afternoon, we will take the actors to go through the moves to see if there are any problems. If we encounter problems, we will make adjustments in time." "Look at the moves. Do you follow the shooting order?" Ana Shen asked from the side.
Zhou Yan shook his head and said, "No, just follow the instructions. Go indoors first, wait until you finish walking indoors, then go in front of the door, finish walking in front of the door, then go to the beach, take advantage of the Do all of this before starting the camera.”
Confirming the camera position and movement in advance can greatly reduce the time for post-production shooting.
Determining the camera location is a troublesome matter. As the chief photographer, Zhao Fei will first determine the camera location based on the script and storyboard provided by Zhou Yan, and then conduct on-site inspections to modify the camera location based on the actual situation.
After all, Zhou Yan’s storyboard is on paper and may not be suitable for on-site shooting. At this time, Zhao Fei needs to use his experience to make adjustments.
However, after this adjustment, it still cannot be finalized because the real scene he inspected does not include people. After adding actors, the camera position may need to be modified.
Of course, even after the camera location is confirmed, when shooting actually starts, there will still be modifications. This kind of thing is normal on set.
No matter how good the preparation is in advance, adjustments still need to be made on site.
Sometimes during the filming process, the director suddenly has a new idea, and may temporarily change the shooting strategy, and the camera position and other things must be overturned and re-done.
When Zhou Yan didn't come, everyone was busy all the time, but the intensity was not very high.
Now that Zhou Yan came over, the intensity immediately increased.
But no one complained, because everyone was used to it. In Zhou Yan's crew, the conditions were very good in all aspects, but when it was time to be busy, Zhou Yan needed everyone to work very fast.
There was no need for Zhou Yan to give any other instructions. After he finished speaking, Li Hong and Shen Yan had already gone to convey his instructions.
It didn't take long for the information to be conveyed to all departments of the crew.
Zhou Yan walked around the scene for a while, and then asked Jiang Mengfei next to him, "Where is the actor Li Xiaoran who plays Qin Yu? Why didn't I see her?"
Jiang Mengfei showed a strange expression, " We actually met her just now."
"Really?" Zhou Yan asked doubtfully, he didn't remember seeing Li Xiaoran.
“She is in the dormitory right now, just below Teacher Zuxian’s room, but she didn’t come out.”
Zhou Yan looked at the time, it was already past ten o'clock, and Li Xiaoran was still in the room and refused to come out.
"She always stays in the room?"
"She will come out when eating, and she will appear in the evening when Teacher Gao is giving lectures."
>Zhou Yan frowned, "What is she doing in the dormitory? Sleeping in?"
"Well...I am a grown man, and I can't run to other girls' dormitories, but I heard Guantou Hong say, Li Xiaoran likes to play games.”
"Did she bring a game console?"
"I heard that she didn't bring it originally, but she ran to buy it after arriving in Pengcheng."
Zhou Yan looked at Hong Xin not far away. Shouted, "Director Hong, come here."
Hong Xin was talking to someone, and when he heard Zhou Yan shouting, he ran over, "Director Zhou, what's wrong?"
She felt a little guilty when she saw Zhou Yan's gloomy face. Although they had a deep revolutionary friendship and a good personal relationship, Zhou Yan was unkind when he was on the crew. No matter who made a mistake, he would always follow his instructions. .
Zhou Yan doesn't scold people, but criticizes them, which puts a lot of pressure on people.
And Zhou Yan’s criticism of others is justified, which means that the other party has really made a mistake. No one wants to make a mistake themselves, let alone be criticized in public.
"Does Li Xiaoran always stay in the room and play games?"
Hong Xin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was not her fault.
She thought about it and said, "She really doesn't go out much. As for whether she plays games, I can't say, but I did see her playing games inside the house."
This statement is relatively objective. It neither shields Li Xiaoran nor adds jealousy.
But Zhou Yan probably already knew what was going on. He nodded and said to Hong Xin, "Go and call Li Xiaoran over."
"Now?"
< br>"Well, now."
"Okay."
Hong Xin said nothing and ran straight to the dormitory area.
After a while, Hong Xin led Li Xiaoran over.
Watching Li Xiaoran and Hong Xin walking together from a distance, Zhou Yan saw Li Xiaoran's talent again.
She looks quite white just by looking at her. When compared with Hong Xin, the effect is even more obvious.
The key point is that Hong Xin also put on some makeup, while Li Xiaoran still wore no makeup.
Not only was she bare-faced, her hair was not tied up. She was wearing clothes that looked like pajamas and a pair of flip-flops at her feet. She looked like Baobao Feng in "Under One Person".
To put it nicely, this is called relaxation; to put it worse, it is called slovenliness.
If she were an ordinary girl, Zhou Yan would not care whether she wore makeup or not, or whether she was dressed inappropriately, but Li Xiaoran is an actor, and strictly speaking, she is still working, so her work attitude is not correct.
The only thing that satisfied Zhou Yan was that Li Xiaoran gained a lot of weight, and the effect was better than Zhou Yan expected.
She has a lot of money, a little bit of flesh, and looks plump. Although the clothes she wears are not revealing, people can still notice her proud breasts.
Following Hong Xin to Zhou Yan, Li Xiaoran asked harmlessly: "Director Zhou, are you looking for me?"
Zhou Yan looked at Li Xiaoran up and down, and said with a half-smile, "How are the conditions of the crew? "Are you satisfied after staying here for a few days?"
Hong Xin is familiar with Zhou Yan and knows that Zhou Yan is acting strangely.
But Li Xiaoran didn’t understand what Zhou Yan said, and thought he was caring about her, so he nodded seriously, “It’s good, the scenery here is nice, the food and accommodation are very good, and everyone is very kind to me. ”
Zhou Yan almost laughed out of anger. This girl really thought she was on vacation.
"Oh, I thought you were dissatisfied with the conditions here, that's why you stay in the room every day."
No matter how dull Li Xiaoran was, she realized that Zhou Yan no longer cared about her.
She actually knew that it was wrong for her to play games on the set, and she knew that she was wrong. Her momentum was also relatively weak, and she said calmly, "Director Zhou, I just played it before turning on the computer. After turning on the computer, I promise... ...Play less.”
She originally wanted to promise not to play, but she couldn’t bear it.
She was quite happy staying at the end of the field these days. She usually stayed in her room playing games without being disturbed by anyone. There were also people serving her food and drinks, and she could come out when she had nothing to do. Breathe in the sea breeze and look at the scenery.
For her, this was a magical day.
Seeing that she still wanted to play, Zhou Yan said in a deep voice, "Give the game console to Jiang Mengfei at noon and ask him to keep it for you until the game is finished."
Li Xiaoran blinked a few times. His eyes were a little disappointed, but he couldn't resist Zhou Yan's words, so he could only nod, "I understand."
"Also, from now on, you are not required to wear makeup when you go out, but at least your hair can't be messy. Stop wearing your pajamas and change into something decent."
"These are not pajamas..." Li Xiaoran still wanted to defend, but when he saw Zhou Yan's eyes, he immediately said, "Yeah, I understand."< br>
"Okay, let's go back. In the afternoon, we are going to watch the moves. Whether there is your play or not, you have to follow."
"Oh, okay."
Li Xiaoran turned to When she walked back, her head was a little lower than when she came. It was obvious that Zhou Yan had just criticized her for being a little out of balance.
Hong Xin smiled from the side and said, "As a little girl, it's normal to be playful."
"At twenty, he is no longer a child."
Hong Xin pursed her lips. She also felt that Li Xiaoran should take care of it, but Zhou Yan's tone of lecturing Li Xiaoran was as if he was lecturing his daughter.
The key point is that Zhou Yan is only a few years older than Li Xiaoran. Young people have high self-esteem and may not be able to bear it. (End of this chapter)
