Chapter 214 Director, You Don’t Even Accept the Red Envelope? Do You Look Down on Me, Liu Shishi!

…

Film, although in name only, is an art.

But in fact, it has long become an industry!

Behind a director, there is often a huge team.

There are at least several hundred people in this team, all of whom work for the director.

If the director fails, the whole team will have nothing to eat and they will be disbanded.

Therefore, the pressure of being a director is very high.

It’s much harder than being an actor.

Xin Yukun is such a street director, and he has dozens of brothers who work with him.

Therefore, he doesn't think about anything else every day, he just wants to make money.

Not to mention, "Xiu Chun Dao" has such a large crew.

Ever since "Xiu Chun Knife" was started, Lu Feng could clearly feel that Director Lu Yang had become a little irritable, as if something was chasing him desperately from behind.

Let him not dare to stop for a moment.

Moreover, shooting period films is indeed much more complicated than shooting fashion films.

Whether it is Diao Wei Ya, various scene layouts, service arrangements, or even several horses on the crew, they all need to be managed by professionals.

Not to mention, each scene requires different makeup and styling.

In the past, Lu Feng only thought about being a handsome hero.

I never imagined that shooting a period film would be so troublesome.

I heard that Goo Jai tanned himself because he didn't want to put on makeup during filming.

Lu Feng felt that he would be more handsome if he was whiter, so he could only endure the makeup and styling, messing around with his face.

Today is just the first day of shooting, and of course there won’t be any difficult moves right from the start.

"Master Chen, I am in Fusi, Xiabei Town, Shen Lian..."

It's just a literary drama.

Say a few lines of dialogue and strike a pose.

For the current road style, it is not a problem at all.

Because, the A-level talent from Liu Shishi, [Excellent Character Empathy Ability], was activated directly.

At this moment, Lu Feng looked at the antique environment around him and directly regarded himself as Shen Lian, the general banner of Jinyiwei.

However, it is different from Zhang Zhen’s version.

Lu Feng's version of Shen Lian is so good-looking that he doesn't look like a royal eagle dog at all, but more like a handsome nobleman.

Moreover, Jin Yiwei's costumes are more gorgeous and more high-quality than Zhang Zhen's version... Lu Feng spent money to make them by special craftsmen.

He ordered three sets for himself.

Each set costs tens of thousands.

After the filming of this movie is completed, Lu Feng will definitely take all three sets of Jinyiwei uniforms home and collect them.

It's very memorable, okay?

Moreover, this is uniform temptation.

Nazha and Senior Sister must love it so much!

And, don’t forget!

Lu Feng also has a [National Style and Ancient Rhythm Badge] on his body, which brings him all-attribute buffs.

At this moment, although it was the first scene, Lu Feng immediately attracted the attention of the entire crew and everyone as soon as he appeared.

"Oh my God! I'm choking!"

"Lu Feng is so handsome...I thought he was already very handsome in modern style, but I never expected that when he puts on ancient clothes, his charm is beyond the sky!"

"I feel that Lu Feng in ancient costume is more handsome than Uncle Jiao!"

"I have a hunch that our movie will be a big hit!"

Although the crew members come from all over the world and come from various brokerage companies, as long as they join the crew, everyone's interests are the same.

Only when the movie becomes popular can everyone get more benefits!

Nominally, this movie has three protagonists, but apart from Lu Feng, the other two male protagonists, whether Wang Qianyuan or Li Dongxue, are completely stupid.

Whether this movie will be a hit or not depends entirely on whether Lu Feng can afford it at the box office!

Originally, many people in the crew were still murmuring about whether Lu Feng could act in a costume drama.

After all, Lu Feng's main job is to be a singer, and he has only made one movie before, and it was a suspense film. The total scenes lasted less than 10 minutes.

He is young and his acting skills don't seem to be very good. If he suddenly comes to shoot a costume movie, he won't mess it up, right?

However, they only dare to think about this in their hearts, and no one would dare to say it in public.

You know, in this era, costume blockbusters are rapidly cooling down in the film market.

[Costume films do not perform well in the market, and making costume films is very risky] - This is the common understanding of all film companies.

It’s not like Director Lu Yang has never tried, and he can’t get any investment at all.

It was Lu Feng who stood up and said that he would invest in this movie, support Director Lu Yang's life-or-death dream, and also star in the movie himself, and called Liu Shishi.

This has made the movie "Xiu Chun Knife" a hot commodity in the market, attracting the attention of countless investors!

Everyone believes that as long as Lu Feng joins, the movie will not be a hit.

As long as he is willing to draw the lottery.

There are at least millions of young girls on the entire Internet who are willing to participate in the lottery, which will provide at least 100 million in box office.

This ensures that the film will not lose money.

As for how much money you can make...

It just depends on director Lu Yang, what he is capable of!

"Click!"

"very perfect!"

"Brother Feng, please do it again and save one!"

Director Lu Yang was a little worried, fearing that Lu Feng's acting skills would be problematic, which would be a headache for him... because the filming period for his movie was only three months.

It's already the middle of August.

The filming period is three months, plus two months for post-production.

It will take at least until the end of January for the movie to be released.

If this is the case... can it still catch up with Lu Feng's 2013 Valentine's Day lucky draw?

So, the shooting speed must be fast!

It's best to compress it within two months!

What surprised Director Lu Yang was that Lu Feng's acting skills were unexpectedly good!

Moreover, Director Lu Yang didn't know how to say it... I always felt that Lu Feng and Liu Shishi were particularly similar from a certain perspective.

When they put on ancient costumes, the whole person changed drastically in an instant.

It seemed that they walked out of ancient times.

There was a special kind of ancient Chinese style.

...

On the first day, Director Lu Yang warmed up and tested Lu Feng's acting skills.

After he confirmed that Lu Feng's acting skills were fine, he turned on the full-power working mode the next day.

He shot 80 shots a day!

Lu Feng really wanted to vomit.

What does 80 shots a day mean?

A normal movie has about 2,400 to 3,600 shots.

According to the three-month shooting cycle, it only takes 20 to 30 shots a day.

Director Lu Yang tripled the workload as soon as he came on board!

Lu Feng felt that at this moment, he was worse than the 996 social animals!

However, he couldn't give up.

Because the crew members worked harder than him... After all, they had done all the logistical preparations, just waiting for him, the leading actor, to take everyone flying.

Facing these hundreds of pairs of eyes, looking forward to it, could Lu Feng refuse?

"Do it again!"

"Just now, my knife-drawing action was still not fierce enough!"

Lu Feng regretted that he was fooled by Teacher Duan to learn "Wudang Swordsmanship". The fighting action was too elegant.

The movie "Embroidered Spring Blade" requires that the action must be simple and practical, defeat the enemy with one move, and try to appear sinister and vicious.

This is the style of Jinyiwei!

What is the use of Wudang swordsmanship?

This is not a TV series, there is plenty of time for you to show off!

However, after practicing "Wudang Swordsmanship" for half a month, Lu Feng has a foundation for action scenes. For those fighting movements, he can almost understand them after watching them once.

However, even so, Lu Feng still thinks that action scenes are really difficult to shoot.

Not only do you have to be hung by wires and fly around, you also have to pay attention to your posture and facial expressions... Most people in this state are lucky if their facial features don't fly around.

But as an excellent actor, you have to control your facial expressions in this state while using your eyes to express your inner emotional fluctuations.

It seems simple to say.

However, it is really difficult to do this.

Sister Shi has shot so many costume films, and there are many fighting scenes, which is really difficult for her.

"Click!"

"Perfect!"

"Brother Feng, thank you for your hard work! Let's stop here today!"

Lu Feng was suspended by the wire for half an hour, and he went back and forth four or five times, and finally met the requirements of Director Lu Yang.

In his heart, he couldn't help but silently thank Liu Shishi.

Thank you for your empathy talent.

Acting is not difficult, but it is really difficult to act well!

Especially movies!

Because, when playing on the big screen, any facial flaws will be magnified countless times, making the audience instantly out of the play.

The crew of "Embroidered Spring Knife" is different from the grass-roots team of "Heart Labyrinth", which is really very professional.

Director Lu Yang is worthy of his family background.

One person manages all departments of the entire crew in an orderly manner.

Lu Feng especially admires him for this.

If it were him, he would not be impatient to manage these mundane things... After all, being a director is already very tiring. Not only do you have to keep an eye on the progress every day, but you also have to deal with some trivial matters of the crew.

There is no joy of artistic creation at all.

There is only irritability.

From this point of view, Lu Feng is particularly relaxed as an actor.

Moreover, if "The Blade of the Assassin" is a big hit, Lu Feng will make the most money... because he is the biggest investor.

The director is his chosen worker!

...

After a week of filming.

Lu Feng gradually adapted to the intensity of director Lu Yang's work.

For this, he has to thank Liu Shishi again.

Thank you, Senior Sister Shi, for helping him to show the physique of Dwayne Johnson.

Otherwise, he would have collapsed from exhaustion.

Under normal circumstances, there are 80 shots a day. Sometimes when he is busy, the most shots are taken on a day of 120 shots.

The least shot on a day is 60 shots.

Someone calculated for Lu Feng that the average working time in the past week was a terrifying 16 hours, which is worse than that of a social animal!

"Next time you join a crew, you must make it clear to the director, and even write it into the contract, that the content of a day's shooting cannot exceed 40 shots."

Director Lu Yang simply treats Lu Feng like a cow.

Sometimes, Lu Feng really wants to point at his nose and scold him, "See who I am?"

I am your financial sponsor!

How dare you torment me like this?

Do you want to hang out?

"Brother Feng, I'm so stressed!"

"If the movie flops, the worst you can do is go back to singing. Besides, your fans will only praise you for being handsome. It's because I'm a useless director and didn't film you well."

Director Lu Yang is simply poisonous.

He probably also knew that Lu Feng scolded him in his heart, so after finishing work every day, he came to Lu Feng to complain.

Said he was under too much pressure.

Although he has a rich family background and a rich family background, it is extremely difficult to make a big movie with an investment of more than 30 million yuan.

Lu Feng gave him this opportunity, could he not cherish it?

Therefore, in order for this movie to be successful, I can only say sorry to Lu Feng.

"Brother Feng, you don't want the movie to hit the streets, right?"

"So, I can only work hard for you! Otherwise, after the movie is finished, I will introduce you to some girls who are in the movie?"

If you say this, Lu Feng will not feel sleepy.

Director Lu Yang, although he is from Nortel, his father is the director of the Department of Chinese Theater Arts.

"Senior brother Lu Yang, this is what you said... Song Yi, do you know her? I think she has a good figure and is quite cute."

"Brother Feng, I was just joking."

Director Lu Yang ran away after hearing that Lu Feng actually asked him about the girl who was in the movie.

Because Master Liu will join the group tomorrow!

If Master Liu found out that he dared to introduce the girl from the drama to Lu Feng, then his good days would be over!

…

Although Liu Shishi is the heroine in name, she is actually here to make a cameo, and there are only a few scenes in total.

Director Lu Yang estimated that at his shooting speed, Liu Shishi could complete the film in three days.

"What? My scene can be finished in three days?"

When Master Liu got the news, he was a little angry.

I received a salary of 2 million yuan and became the heroine. I thought I could have two completely different relationships with Lu Feng... It would take at least a month to film, right?

Are you telling me now that after three days of filming, you can let me go?

or……

I don’t want the money!

How many more days do you want me to shoot?

I just want to experience what a wonderful feeling it would be like for Lu Feng to be my licking dog?

"Senior Sister, please don't embarrass me. I'm just a young director."

Although director Lu Yang kept apologizing to Liu Shishi, when it came time to shoot, he refused to add any scenes.

"Xiu Chun Knife" is a man's drama. What's the use of giving you so many scenes?

The best result is to let you come out beautifully and hit the soy sauce.

"Sister, what are you doing? How can I accept your red envelope? Take it back quickly!"

Liu Shishi felt that Director Lu Yang was simply unable to communicate, so she took out the red envelope and handed it to Director Lu Yang without any nonsense.

Who knew that director Lu Yang and Xin Yukun were completely different.

He is a man with dreams and a bottom line. He does not accept red envelopes at all.

At this moment, Master Liu suddenly missed Xin Yukun very much.

It's better for Brother Kun to understand his own thoughts.

Seeing Master Liu being taken to the dressing room glumly, Lu Feng couldn't help but go over and asked a few questions in a low voice.

"Master, my dear, who made you angry? Tell me and I will tell him to get out of the set immediately!"

"You know how to coax me nicely. I sent you so many messages before. You just pretended to be dead and pretended you didn't know me, right?"

Seeing Master Liu being a little bit playful, Lu Feng looked around.

This is a temporary dressing room, shared by several protagonists. At this time, there shouldn't be anyone who suddenly runs in without opening their eyes, right?

Take a gamble!

Lu Feng went over and closed the door carefully, then came over, hugged Master Liu directly, put his head up and gave him a deep French kiss.

Master Liu who was kissing her was a little confused and infatuated.

"Baby, are you still angry?"

"You think this, I will... um~~ um."

Seeing that Master Liu was still angry, Lu Feng immediately repeated his old trick and gave Master Liu a longer and deeper kiss, which almost made Master Liu breathless.

His little face turned red.

The eyebrows are full of all kinds of charm.

"Baby, is your anger gone?"

"You are just messing around! What if someone sees you?"

Although Master Liu looked a little angry and complained about Lu Feng, he couldn't help but smile.

A person's mouth can lie, but his body cannot.

When Lu Feng kissed him just now, Liu Shishi also took the opportunity to hug Lu Feng and clearly felt that there was a strange change in Lu Feng.

"Baby, wait and see what I do."

"Shen Lian is deeply in love with Zhou Miaotong, and Lu Feng is deeply in love with Liu Shishi... I definitely didn't act, I was careless."

After making Master Liu happy, the two left the dressing room.

Tonight's scene was about Shen Lian, a dog licker, and Zhou Miaotong showed tenderness and affection... From an acting point of view, there was no challenge at all.

Today's scene was mainly directed by Lu Yang, who wanted Lu Feng to relax.

This movie, because director Lu Yang's pace is very fast, requires about 5,000 shots, of which about 1,600 are martial arts scenes.

Half of the remaining dramas also require emotional outbursts!

In short, this movie is a great test for Lu Feng!

It’s rare to have a gentle scene... Director Lu Yang’s original intention was to let Lu Feng relax and adjust his mentality before playing a fierce game!

However, Director Lu Yang was just overthinking.

If Lu Feng just acted casually and perfunctorily... could he explain Liu Shishi’s situation?

Therefore, this scene tonight is the biggest challenge for Lu Feng since his debut!
