Mei Zihan used to follow almost all small crews. Needless to say, "My Stepfather" was poor. "Sniper" also had a limited budget, and being able to shoot in an abandoned military base is already considered good.
But now that Mei Zihan is making a movie with the crew of "Blood Pond Picture", he knows what "trench" is, what is excellence, and what is a big production with an investment of over 100 million!
It's pitiful to think about it. Most of the crews that Mei Zihan worked with in the past could be completed in the same studio, and only a few opportunities are rare to go out on location. Where has he seen such a boldness to spend money
Movies are different from TV. They have a time limit, so it is naturally impossible to show the entire original work in its entirety. It can only condense the whole book, present the main line of the book, and form a complete story.
Therefore, the opening of this movie begins with the massacre of Qin Xuechi's family.
Originally, this massacre could only be completed in the film and television city, but in order to pursue the authenticity of the "luxury house", the crew did not hesitate to take people to a tourist attraction outside the province to take pictures. The rental fee of this house alone is already a lot of money, but Han He didn't even bat an eyelid.
Then, in order to restore the scene of Qin Xuechi's learning, the crew set up a new shooting location, surrounded by mountains and rivers, which looks full of fairy spirit. Han He's lens is also so beautiful that it can almost be taken down and used as wallpaper. But Han He was not satisfied with just this, instead he filmed over and over again, without worrying about the budget at all.
If the budget is not enough, there will always be someone rushing to invest money.
Mei Zihan didn't have much role in the early stage, he just prepared on the sidelines and tried his best to watch other people perform.
In the past few days of official filming, Mei Zihan has been greatly impacted, but when I saw Xu Ji'an and Zhang Yunyi starting to act, I really knew what a good crew and a good actor should be when they actually started filming. How powerful can it be
Not to mention Xu Ji'an, he himself has awards and works, even in his thirties, he can still play teenage boys to life. What surprised Mei Zihan was that Zhang Yunyi was a young girl, but she was quite agile in acting, and a simple move could be very different from others.
No wonder she was able to stand out from thousands of people back then, and her debut was to cooperate with a big director. Zhang Yunyi is probably the "talented" actor that Jiang Ying once said. Zhang Yunyi herself is not very old, and she is even more comfortable playing a girl.
It doesn't matter if they are good at acting, their professionalism is even more top-notch.
When he first appeared on the stage, Xie Qingqing had to use lightness skills to cross the lake, and also to roll in the air. This is not a close-up shot, but rather a long-range shot. In other words, even if a substitute is used, it is difficult to see it.
But Zhang Yunyi didn't say a word, she hung up directly, and after she didn't pass the first time, she went on to shoot the second and third times. Once again, she didn't master the movements well, half of the clothes were splashed with water, and she continued to hang up after the clothes were half dry.
While Mei Zihan was admiring, he could only secretly be vigilant that he had to do better.
A little girl can be so powerful, how can I be worse than her
Soon, it was the turn of Qin Xuechi and Xiaoyaosheng's first meeting.
In the original book, this was originally a two-person scene between Qin Xuechi and Xiaoyaosheng, but in the movie it was changed to a three-person scene. The orphan girl who was bullied in the original book was changed to Xie Qingqing, who just wanted to have fun. To put it bluntly, this was actually the first time the three of them met. And the different performances shown by Qin Xuechi and Xiaoyaosheng when they met this time also became the opportunity for Xie Qingqing to like Xiaoyaosheng at the beginning.
This change is undoubtedly a good thing for the movie. As the heroine, Xie Qingqing will definitely have more playing time in the movie. The change is reasonable, and it can also reduce the ambiguous scenes between Xie Qingqing and Xiaoyaosheng and simplify the story. But for Mei Zihan, it was another matter.
In the beginning, there was only one person to play with Xu Ji'an, but now it has been changed to two. One is an experienced veteran and the other is a talented newcomer. Not only must Mei Zihan play Xiaoyaosheng well, but also not be overwhelmed by these two people. It is not that simple.
Mei Zihan took a deep breath, secretly kissed Jiang Ying's photo, to keep cheering herself up, and then went on stage pretending to be calm and relaxed.
"Xiaomei, this is your first appearance, let's try first." Han Hebi gestured for Mei Zihan to start.
Zhang Yunyi smiled and glanced at Mei Zihan, and soon entered into the role.
———————
"Ah." Xie Qingqing pretended to cover her face, but her feet were slightly separated, ready to run away at any time.
What is depressing is that the young man with extraordinary skills she wanted to test did not save her, but watched the good show from the sidelines, and she was so tired that she acted in this scene for nothing.
Xie Qingqing rolled her eyes secretly, with a little anger on her face.
Just when the stool was about to fly towards Xie Qingqing, a hand as white as jade pinched the stool, and the other hand pulled Xie Qingqing up.
The sun shone on this man, and his bright eyes appeared full of immortality.
This is a very handsome scholar.
His voice was very soft, and there was endless concern in his tone, "Girl, are you okay?"
Xie Qingqing froze for a moment, with a shy look on her face, "Thank you so much, sir."
"Heh." Qin Xuechi watched the good show from the side, drinking his own wine in a leisurely manner.
One pretends to be garlic and the other acts foolishly, which is really a perfect match.
"What are you laughing at?" Xie Qingqing came back to her senses, and looked at Qin Xuechi angrily, "It's fine if you don't save me, this young master is kind enough to save me, why are you laughing?"
"I laugh that this person's martial arts are not as good as yours, but he still rushed forward to save the beauty." Qin Xuechi raised his eyebrows slightly, his face was full of rebellion, "Why, am I wrong?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Xie Qingqing was a little flustered and a little scared. She didn't dare to look into the scholar's eyes because she was afraid that he would be disappointed in her.
"So the girl's martial arts are so strong?" Xiao Yaosheng looked at Qin Xuechi, then turned his gaze to Xie Qingqing, with a warmer smile on his face, "If that's the case, I will feel at ease. If the girl has the ability to protect herself, I will Don't worry about that person coming back to trouble you again."
Xie Qingqing was startled when she heard the words, her face was burning hot.
Qin Xuechi frowned slightly, as if he couldn't believe that the scholar in front of him had such a temperament? Is there really such a fool in this world
"Yes." Han He looked at the appearance of the three people in the camera and was very satisfied, "The lighting engineer can dim the light a little bit, and the makeup artist can give them a little touch-up. This one is in good condition just now. Let's do it again. This is over."
Although the first one can be used, Han He is very satisfied with the performances of Mei Zihan and Zhang Yunyi, and naturally hopes that they can perform better.
At the beginning, he was worried that these two young people would be a little stage fright under Xu Ji'an's performance, so he told them not to put too much pressure on the first round, and to try it first, but he didn't expect the effect to be better than he thought. Even better. Zhang Yunyi deserves to be the person who has cooperated with Director Zhou since her debut, she is full of aura, and if she is a few years older, she might be another Li Ruo.
As for Mei Zihan, it really surprised him.
He obviously has never been in contact with any filming, and when he was on the set, there were many things he saw for the first time. He couldn't hide his surprise, but he didn't expect to be overwhelmed by the momentum of Xu Ji'an and Zhang Yunyi when he came on stage. It also retains its own characteristics, which is really a good seedling.
Such a person has not been well-known until now, and only has a bitter drama around him. It is really not lucky enough. However, I believe that Mei Zihan's fame will increase visibly after "Blood Pond Picture".
During the second shooting of the first scene, Mei Zihan was more precise, and he also grasped some subtle expressions better.
Xu Ji'an's aura was indeed terrifying, but when Mei Zihan actually played with him, he didn't feel anything. The pressure that Xu Ji'an put on him didn't seem to be as great as when Jiang Ying played with him one-on-one. After understanding this point, Mei Zihan seemed to be more at ease.
If this effect can be achieved, then in the later stage, Xiaoyaosheng will play more roles, and this role will be even more brilliant. ,
Xu Ji'an lamented director Han He's vicious vision, and at the same time lamented Mei Zihan's acting skills.
When I was talking to Mei Zihan before, I thought he really couldn't speak, but now I have another idea about Xu Ji'an after the play. Since Mei Zihan has such a good level, it doesn't matter if his EQ is lower. If the professional level is high and the emotional intelligence is sufficient, wouldn't it be necessary to overwhelm others
He has been acting for so many years, even actors who are as experienced as him are more or less restrained in front of him. When he played against a popular niche before, a simple scene had to be filmed more than a dozen times, and that niche was almost overwhelmed by him. In the end, Xu Ji'an didn't want to procrastinate any longer, so he took the initiative Relax for a while so that the niche can pass smoothly.
But Mei Zihan was really not afraid of him at all, not at all.
Such boldness and confidence are really rare.
Many actors may not be really that bad in acting skills, but they will be short when they see other people's performances, and they will naturally appear to be not good enough when they really start to perform.
"The three of you are in good condition, continue to start the second filming." Han He signaled them to continue without stopping.
The three of them were not acquainted with each other, and those who were fighting were considered to be a temporary team, and decided to go to the martial arts conference together to see and see.
Qin Xuechi and Xie Qingqing are not enemies and do not get together, and Xiaoyaosheng plays the role of mediator. On the one hand, the brotherhood between Qin Xuechi and Xiaoyaosheng became more and more serious, and on the other hand, Xiaoyaosheng was politely alienated from Xie Qingqing. The relationship between the three seems to be harmonious, but it is actually in crisis.
After so many days of filming, the tacit understanding between the three of them became better and better, but when shooting the fighting part, the efficiency slowed down significantly.
When Master Zheng was demonstrating to Zhang Yunyi, Mei Zihan held the sword and held the sword flower alone. Master Zheng said that you should be chic and beautiful when you draw the sword and when you draw the sword, there should be no pauses, and there are almost no other shortcuts except repeated practice. Therefore, whenever he had spare time, Mei Zihan practiced hard, trying to make his later fight scenes look better.
"You can't use your wrists, you have to use your elbows. You can move your hands, but not your body."
When Mei Zihan was practicing, a female voice suddenly sounded, and kindly reminded, "If you are like this, you will easily sprain your hand, and the gain outweighs the loss."
This voice sounds very familiar.
Mei Zihan turned her head in a daze, and saw a beautiful woman wearing sunglasses. The woman pulled down the sunglasses and smiled friendlyly at Mei Zihan.
Aww—
It was as if countless fireworks were constantly blooming in Mei Zihan's mind, and the booming and booming sounds one after another, almost blasted Mei Zihan's reason into a paste.
This voice... this face, and this extremely cute little movement.
It's a goddess!
It's Goddess Li Ruo!
