After the break, Chu Xiaxing touched up a little makeup and returned to the crew for the next round of shooting.
"Distant Heart of You" is a low-cost sci-fi romance drama, which tells the story of a female hero from Earth and an alien male lead falling in love. The director is a middle-aged man who brags all day and is greasy and arrogant. The male protagonist is an eighteen-line fresh meat with a square face and wheat complexion. The script is an illogical and messy story. drama elements.
Of course, Chu Xiaxing also contributed to the show's popularity. After all, she is now an 18th-tier black and red artist who has appeared on social news, and her reputation is also not very good. She is in the crew every day like water, anyway, the mess is over, can you expect to make a rare work with this broken configuration
"Hey, let's shoot the next one!" The male director, surnamed Wang, is now sitting leisurely behind the monitor, holding the paper script in one hand and the walkie-talkie in the other. The assistant next to him was also holding a small fan to cool down the director intimately. Director Wang was a full emperor.
In Chu Xiaxing's eyes, Director Wang was an incompetent bastard. The other party probably had never directed a drama seriously. Before, he was just fooling around in the crew, and he didn't look like a prince in a dragon robe.
The camera crew set up the machine step by step, and Director Wang flipped the script: "Let me see, who is it?"
Chu Xiaxing had read the notice sheet long ago, and without waiting for Director Wang to speak first, she naturally walked to the camera and accurately found her position. The male protagonist's name is Cao Yangang. He is also filming a drama for the first time. He swayed around Chu Xiaxing lamely. Every time he faced the camera, he was a little embarrassed.
Director Wang stared at the screen on the monitor and greeted, "Hey, go a little further to the left, it's not quite right now..."
Cao Yangang looked at Chu Xiaxing and then at Director Wang. He pointed at himself blankly, not sure: "Is it me?"
Chu Xiaxing: "It's you."
Director Wang: "Of course it's you! Who else could it be if it wasn't you!?"
Cao Yangang suddenly realized, he hurriedly adjusted his position awkwardly: "Oh oh oh..."
Director Wang frowned and said, "No, no, you'd better go back. You can't even go to the left. You need to take a step back."
When Cao Yan saw the director frown, he became even more nervous and immediately took a step back.
Director Wang looked at the monitor screen. He touched his chin and complained, "What's going on? Why is it so awkward? Can I still take pictures?"
Cao Yangang had never filmed before, and he completely regarded Director Wang's words as the imperial edict. Although Director Wang is a scumbag who is strong in the outside world, it is enough to shock the young actors who have never filmed.
Cao Yangang said with a guilty conscience, "... Director Wang, what am I doing wrong?"
Director Wang: "I think about it, take a step diagonally back..."
Chu Xiaxing heard about director Bunzi's random scheduling. She really didn't expect such a simple scene to take so long. She saw Cao Yangang's dazed face, and said lightly, "Look at the camera behind me."
"I didn't mean to go diagonally to the rear, why do you still move there..." Director Wang stared at Cao Yangang who was chaotically moving in the monitor and was about to get angry, but when he saw the current shooting picture, his voice gradually decreased, and he was surprised. , "Hey, this seems to work, let's try this first."
Chu Xiaxing: "..." What do you mean by trying? Are you blindly trying to film
Chu Xiaxing listened to Director Wang's stupid words, she wanted to get angry and wring the other person's head, but thinking that she had agreed with Han Chuning that she would never fight casually in the crew, and secretly suppressed her angry temper.
The crew is a place where rules are followed, and it is disrespectful for an actor to contradict the director at will, unless the actor's position is far superior to the director.
When the filming of a scene was finally finished, Chu Xiaxing was so upset that he said a little irritably: "Jingjing, make me chrysanthemums tomorrow, I feel like I'm going to get angry."
Assistant Li Jing: "Okay, it's really been too sunny recently, it's inevitable to get hot..."
Chu Xiaxing: "No, I'm so angry." If she continued to shoot like this, she would explode, and she felt like playing at home every day.
Chu Xiaxing drank tea by the side to reduce the fire, trying to adjust back to the Buddhist state of the elderly. This play completely shattered all her fantasies about being an actor. She felt that she chose to be a director too correctly in the past, so that there would never be any idiots pointing fingers at her on the crew, and at most she had to deal with the producers and management.
"You are amazing, every time is a pass, so you have the talent of an actor!" Cao Yangang also rested after filming. When he saw Chu Xiaxing not far away, he couldn't help but stepped forward to praise.
Even though Chu Xiaxing decided to fool around in the cast of "Distant Heart of You", her acting skills were more than enough. Even Director Wang couldn't fault her. Cao Yangang was not as good as Chu Xiaxing at all, each scene had to be retaken several times painfully, and Director Wang was often unsure of his plans, which really tormented the crew.
Chu Xiaxing took a sip of tea. She glanced at Cao Yangang in front of her and responded, "Really? But you're not really suitable for this kind of play."
Cao Yangang has always had a naive personality. He was not angry when he heard the straightforward comments, but instead said with a good temper: "I may not have talent as an actor."
Chu Xiaxing: "No, I'm saying that your appearance is not suitable for acting in idol dramas, so you didn't choose the right way."
Cao Yangang's facial features are not delicate enough, and he is more inclined to the temperament of a tough guy, and even a little honest. To be honest, his appearance is directly related to the acting of the crew. If he played some tough and down-to-earth roles, he might still be able to get along, but it would be outrageous to follow the line of idol drama Butterfly.
"So that's what you meant." Cao Yangang scratched his head stupidly, and asked curiously, "Right, how did you know where I should stand? Director Wang had no idea at the time!"
Director Wang often tries actors' positions randomly on the set. Occasionally, new ideas come up coldly, and he wants to try other scenes boldly. He often has one out and one out, and finally discards it all.
Chu Xiaxing just secretly pointed out Cao Yangang's location, which surprised him, so he asked quietly. She was like a mirror in her heart, finding the fixed point accurately every time, as if she could guess the picture on the monitor, and even the scene of each camera position was clear.
When Chu Xiaxing recalled the messy shooting, she raised her eyebrows impatiently and said coldly, "Because he is a pig, he has no idea."
Director Wang can't even tell dramas as a director, which is probably not even a pig. At least pork can be sold at a high price, and he is purely a waste of dry rice. Some directors will create a storyboard script, and the more experienced ones have a storyboard in their hearts. Only the unworthy director Wang would try it on the spot, but it would be a waste of everyone's time.
If Chu Xiaxing had expressed her dissatisfaction so directly in the past, she would have scared the people around her to silence for a second, and they would not dare to touch Daoyue Chu at this time.
However, Cao Yangang is a natural type of Hanhan, he seems to be not very sensitive to the atmosphere by nature, not only did not shut up, but cheerfully reminded: "You talk like a child, and you are angry with the director, let's chat privately It's okay to chat, but you should be polite in front of Director Wang."
Cao Yangang only thought that Chu Xiaxing was just working and didn't know how to restrain her sharpness. He didn't have the ability to observe words and feelings like Xia Hong. Naturally, he was immune to Chu Xiaxing's aura, and he really regarded her as an ordinary little girl.
He didn't think that Chu Xiaxing was very lethal. He mistakenly thought that she was upset during the filming, and he was afraid that she would offend Director Wang by wearing small shoes, so he kindly raised it.
"..." Chu Xiaxing looked at Cao Yangang in disbelief. She didn't expect that one day she couldn't even hold back a 18th-tier young actor, and she would be judged as a "child" by the other party.
Chu Xiaxing looked at Cao Yangang's dazed and stunned appearance. She was both angry and funny: "Young man, there is a reason why you won't be popular in the future. You really don't know how to look at people at all."
Xia Hong came from a wealthy family. Although he didn't understand the details of Chu Xiaxing, he could smell the crisis and knew who could provoke and who couldn't. Cao Yangang's radar is quite slow, he doesn't know how to look at people, and he can't judge the situation, which is very fatal in the film and television circle.
"You should be quite suitable for acting as a stunner in a comedy, and maybe you can play a professional." Chu Xiaxing teased, she knew that Cao Yangang had no malicious intentions, and naturally did not get angry. She just felt that the other party's eyes were average and belonged to the type who was easy to follow the wrong leader.
If the actor is with the wrong person when he first debuts, he will undoubtedly take a lot of detours and suffer a lot. There are too many sanctimonious liars in the circle. They don't have the ability to know people, and they will fall sooner or later.
Cao Yangang touched his head in confusion. He felt that Chu Xiaxing's words were a little arrogant, but considering that she really has real skills in acting, he attributed it to the other party's talent, which inevitably gave him a sense of arrogance.
In the scorching summer, with the hot wind blowing across the face, the afternoon on the set became more and more difficult. In addition, the location was shot in the afternoon, and it was so hot that people almost fainted. The foreheads of the staff were all sweating, and the photographer pinched the neckline and fanned wildly to get a little cool.
Chu Xiaxing sat and waited in the scorching sun, and the tip of her nose also oozes out fine beads of sweat, which caused the makeup girl to frequently come over to touch up her makeup. Everyone's mood was a little irritable, and they were staring at Cao Yanggang during the shooting.
At this moment, Cao Yangang was flushed and panting. He had just finished a lap vigorously and looked at Director Wang in the shade, hoping that the scene would pass. The group performers around him were also sweating like rain, they were running and panting, and their faces were tired.
Director Wang sat under the awning. He crossed Erlang's legs and looked at the playback before muttering, "No way, another one..."
Cao Yangang humbly asked for advice: "Director Wang, what can't you do?"
Director Wang: "It's hard to say, it's hard to say, we'll guarantee one more..."
One more guarantee is to ask Cao Yangang and the group performers to run again. It is uncomfortable for everyone to walk under the scorching sun, not to mention running desperately. Cao Yangang didn't know how to improve himself. He opened his mouth to ask for help again, but was perfunctoryly led by Director Wang.
Assistant Li Jing stood beside Chu Xiaxing and whispered secretly, "It's such a toss-up filming, it goes back and forth every day..."
Li Jing has never been in the crew before, and she doesn't know how to shoot TV dramas, so she naturally can't understand Director Wang's approach.
Chu Xiaxing: "If you follow the wrong leader, you can go back and forth."
The director is the organizer and conductor of the crew and needs to coordinate and dispatch the work of various departments. If the director is an idiot with no idea, then the crew is running wildly on the wrong road, and eight horses can't stop it.
Cao Yangang and the group performers finished the lap again, but Director Wang was still dissatisfied with the picture. He thoughtfully said: "I think we can do another one..."
As soon as Director Wang's voice fell, the grievances of the crew almost reached their peak. Although no one dared to complain, they were obviously quite impatient. The staff were already extremely hard working in high temperature, and now they can't finish a scene in half a day, so they are naturally depressed.
Cao Yangang was apprehensive in the face of everyone's gaze, and everyone would not blame Director Wang's capriciousness, but would think that Cao Yangang's acting skills were not good.
After all, Chu Xiaxing can pass every time he is filming, but Cao Yangang has to toss for a long time every time, and the hot weather intensifies his emotions. In fact, I really can't blame Cao Yangang for this matter. Chu Xiaxing has his own skills and doesn't need Wang Dao's guidance at all.
Chu Xiaxing didn't want to meddle in her own business, but she saw that Cao Yangang was about to become the public enemy of the crew, and she couldn't bear it, so she simply frowned and said, "The one just now is not enough."
Director Wang suddenly heard Chu Xiaxing's voice, he was startled, turned his head to see her next to the monitor, and said in surprise, "When did you come here!?"
Chu Xiaxing ignored Director Wang. She glanced at the field record sheet in the field recorder's hand, and asked a few questions: "What kind of scene is this?"
The scene record is used to record the number of episodes, scenes, mirrors, and strips, so as to indicate the shooting content and time code. The screen recorder will record the number of pieces that the director is satisfied with, and then hand over the field record sheet to the editor for guidance on post-editing.
When the reporter saw Chu Xiaxing, his face was also full of surprise, but he answered honestly and described the scene just passed.
After Chu Xiaxing heard it, she looked at the densely packed field records and said lightly, "Enough is enough, no need to shoot any more, there are so many materials in the post-production stage."
Director Wang had no idea in his mind, and naturally he had to shoot every scene, which made the crew's work progress surprisingly slow. In fact, experienced directors have long known which lenses to use for editing. In the early years, the error tolerance rate during film shooting was extremely low. People like Director Wang would be beaten to death when filming. Film is money!
Chu Xiaxing would be complained by the producers when she shot a few more films. She naturally couldn't stand Wang Dao's approach. Even with the current technological progress, digital shooting is not used for repetitive work.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard "No need to take pictures anymore", Director Wang looked at Chu Xiaxing who suddenly appeared, but he couldn't hold back his face, and said dissatisfiedly: "Hey, who said it's okay, I still haven't taken pictures... "
Chu Xiaxing listened to his nonsense, her face turned cold, and she raised her eyebrows and asked, "What scene is missing now? Do you want a drone to fly around?"
The production cost of "Distant Heart of You" was not high, and the crew did not have drones at all. Chu Xiaxing's words were obviously sarcasm. She laughed out loud, and he quickly covered his mouth carefully, restrained his smile, and looked at Director Wang's face uneasily, lest he would be hated by the other party.
Wang Dao said angrily: "I am the director, and I have a clue in my heart..."
Chu Xiaxing thought to herself, "You have a spectrum of ghosts." She looked calm, and said with plausibility: "Okay, let's be reasonable, what scenes are still missing? What scenes are not covered?"
Chu Xiaxing was too lazy to pay attention to him two days ago, but that doesn't mean she can be fooled by him casually. When she was sitting in the director's chair, he was still playing in the mud!
Director Wang's face turned blue and white for a while. There was no shortage of scenes in this scene, and it was estimated that the drone could only be shot in the sky. Chu Xiaxing's words were not wrong, but he just couldn't bear to be contradicted by the little girl in public, and let the rest of the crew watch jokes.
Cao Yangang saw that the situation was not going well, but he rarely understood the atmosphere and came forward to mediate: "Director Wang, let's take another shot, she's joking with you..."
Director Wang waited for someone else's steps, he simply walked away and said indignantly, "Film what to do again! Transition!"
The long and torturous filming finally came to an end. The crew members were able to breathe for a while, but assistant Li Jing was terrified by Chu Xiaxing's words and actions just now.
Li Jing asked cautiously, "Sister, did you just choke with the director?"
Chu Xiaxing had already walked to the shade to drink water. She was not afraid of the director's glare from afar, and said calmly, "You won't get used to him if you don't look at him earlier."
Li Jing hurriedly said: "...but I don't dare to choke directly."
Producer Xia Hong is not on the set now, and Director Wang is the top leader of the crew. Offending him will never be fruitful.
Cao Yangang was also very frightened. He rushed to Chu Xiaxing's side and persuaded: "Go over with me and apologize to Director Wang, you will be wearing small shoes like this..."
Cao Yangang knew that Chu Xiaxing was standing up for her, but at this time she was also full of hatred and became a thorn in Wang Dao's eyes.
Chu Xiaxing sneered: "He's worthy too?" If it was in the past, she would be too lazy to talk to someone like Director Wang, and it would be a loss to say more.
Cao Yangang felt that she was simply daring. He was so shocked when he heard this, he said weakly, "...Aren't you a little too dragged?"
Chu Xiaxing originally remembered to make an appointment with Han Chuning not to fight, but when she heard that she was going to apologize to Director Wang, she immediately returned to her former violent temper, and said confidently, "Why can't I be dragged? I've been dragged for a lifetime!"
Cao Yangang: "..." Where did this life come from
Chu Xiaxing has never been a humble and respectful character. If she can really swallow her anger and be polite, then she will never be able to get ahead in the director's circle for the rest of her life.
"Whoever wastes time in the crew is at fault. It's fine if he didn't let him apologize to me, but you want me to apologize in the past? Don't even think about it!" Chu Xiaxing rejected Cao Yangang neatly. She faced Han Chuning and other children with kindness. , but there are some bottom lines at work that cannot be compromised.
Cao Yangang really had no choice, he could only run back to apologize for Chu Xiaxing, but Director Wang didn't look relieved.
When the filming started again, Chu Xiaxing really filled Director Wang's hatred. She was constantly stopped during her performance, and she came and went four or five times. At first, Chu Xiaxing didn't want to delay other people, so he pushed his head down hard, but Wang Daogong's idea of revenge was too obvious, which made the atmosphere on the set tense!
Cao Yangang was fidgeting in the middle. He tried many times to ease the tension between the two, but to no avail.
Seeing this, Chu Xiaxing had no intention of acting again. She simply gave up her acting emotions, looked directly at Director Wang in front of the monitor, and said calmly, "Then tell me how to play this show?"
Wang Dao misunderstood that she knew her mistake and bowed her head, and he immediately sneered yin and yang: "Now that you think of me, aren't you very good at it? Why can't you act again? I thought you were better than me as a director!"
Chu Xiaxing hasn't been violated face to face for many years. Instead of being annoyed when she heard this, she chuckled lightly: "I've never made a trash drama before, so naturally I don't know how to play it. Of course, I have to ask experienced people."
Everyone took a deep breath when they heard this, and even Director Wang was flushed with anger. No one expected her to speak so rudely!
Director Wang was furious, he stood up abruptly, and choked: "What a big tone! Do you think you are Xu Xiancheng and can make "Man Ran" at a young age? Or do you really think of yourself as Chu Xiaxing , don't you think that "Blood Sky" was filmed by you!?"
Xu Xiancheng and Chu Xiaxing are both young and famous directors, and their follow-up works are as stable as ever.
Director Wang moved out two famous directors at this time, which is to ridicule Chu Xiaxin for not knowing the sky and the earth, and mistakenly referring to "core" as "star"!
Chu Xiaxing was stunned when she heard the words, and then said calmly: "Yeah, that's how I feel." She didn't shoot "Blood Sky", so there's nothing wrong with that.
Director Wang heard that the other party actually dared to respond, and compared himself to two master directors. He was immediately stunned by her shamelessness, and he couldn't speak for a while: "..."
Director Wang: You dare to accept this, you have no shame!
