On the penultimate day before the school holiday, Ning Hao found a suitable filming location, which was a Sheep and Scorpion hotpot restaurant near the Yanjing Film Institute.
It is said that this is the most delicious lamb and scorpion hotpot within a few kilometers of Yanjing Film Institute. Ning Hao paid 10,000 yuan to cover the entire hotel for a whole day, plus two meals for the entire crew, and filming time It is scheduled from the morning of the next day to the evening of the next day.
The night before the shooting, the crew had already transported the equipment to the scene and started setting it up. Li Mu also met the six extras that Ning Hao had gone through so much trouble to find.
What amazed Li Mu was that each of these six people was weirder than the last in terms of appearance. Any one of them could be on par with Chen Kai, the gangster leader in "Charlotte Trouble", and two of them were even slightly different. Better than him.
Ning Hao said that these are all well-known special-type extras near Yanjing Film Studio. Each one of them has reached a new level of ugliness. In order to accept the film and increase the salary, they are taking the initiative to put their own The image management is even more terrible. In ordinary movies, there are only one or two such actors at most, but no one expected that Li Mu would use six at a time.
It's like six Ruhua appearing in Stephen Chow's movie. The painting style is so "beautiful" that people dare not watch it.
However, this scene was exactly what Li Mu wanted. The uglier the scene was, the greater the impact it would have on Ji Shen Lao Baigan.
On the day of the shooting, Li Mu asked Ning Hao to go to the market and buy a bunch of fake gold jewelry. It is not popular for men to wear thick gold chains now, but Li Mu still felt that gold chains would better capture the scene he wanted, so the six Almost all the extras have a big gold chain in their hands. In addition, the core actor also has a gold watch that looks quite arrogant. The scene when fully armed almost perfectly presents the ideal look in Li Mu's mind.
Zhang Kexuan had just arrived in Yanjing, and before he had time to attend CCTV's rehearsal, he was summoned by Li Mu via phone call to shoot the additional footage.
The core of Li Mu's scene is not Zhang Kexuan, but the six extras. In particular, the core roles of the six extras are very important. They need to embody the key to the entire sequence - the disgusting face of a low-quality upstart.
Although this special actor has participated in the filming of many film and television dramas, most of them were minor roles without lines. This is the first time for him to take on a scene with relatively large lines like today, so he is a little nervous. A scene with a total length of only two or three minutes started shooting in the morning and continued until the afternoon, but Li Mu was not really satisfied.
What Li Mu wanted was the natural nouveau riche temperament, and even the posture of spitting had very high requirements, so the filming continued until the evening and Li Mu was not really satisfied.
Li Mu found the core extra who was dressed as a nouveau riche, and said patiently: "The action of spitting must be unrestrained, but not too deliberate, and the tone of speaking must have the feeling of extreme expansion. The more arrogant the better.”
The core extras nodded repeatedly, and I was sweating anxiously. I had never played a role with so many scenes, and the director also needed to focus on portraying the characteristics of the character himself, so I was a little nervous and a little out of place.
Li Mu was not in a hurry and asked him to think about it first and try to find the feeling he wanted.
At this time, the sky outside had darkened. Wang Xinran, who was participating in professional training, had just finished class. Two hours later, she and several of her classmates had a physical class to attend, so everyone went out to have a meal together, and then I went back to school for the physical education class, and when several girls were discussing what to eat, one girl suggested going out to eat sheep and scorpion hotpot.
The Sheep and Scorpion Hotpot at the entrance of the Film School is very famous among the students of the Film School because of its delicious taste and its two groups. Basically, 80% of the customers every day are students of the Film School. Lin Xinran has been taking professional courses since she came to the Film School. , have eaten here several times, and have a good impression of it. Occasionally, if you want to satisfy your craving, this is a very good choice, so when someone suggested eating here, she basically agreed without much thought.
Several girls came out of school chatting and laughing together. When they arrived at the door of Sheep and Xiezi Hotpot, they discovered that there was a temporarily closed sign at the door. Several girls were disappointed, but one of the girls looked inside and saw the brightly lit store. It was actually set up as a film set.
Since they were all students who wanted to apply for film school, she was very sensitive to filmmaking. She said in surprise: "Look, there's actually filming going on inside!"
Wang Xinran, like several other girls, looked in through the glass window. Sure enough, there was filming going on inside the store. Two cameras were filming intensively around a table in the center of the hotel.
A girl next to her stuck out her tongue and said, "Why are those guys so disgusting?"
Wang Xinran took a closer look, and sure enough, the six men standing around the dinner table, drinking and fisting, were each uglier than the last, and each of them was wearing colorful clothes and thick gold chains. They looked quite uncomfortable.
Wang Xinran lost interest and said to the girls around him: "Oh, let's not watch it. It's disgusting. Why don't we go eat something else? There's a Sichuan restaurant across the road that tastes pretty good."
Several other girls nodded again and again. The scene in front of them was indeed a bit nauseating. Although everyone was very interested in filming, the fact that the starring roles were such disgusting men really made it uninteresting to continue watching.
Before leaving, a girl suddenly pointed at a man sitting in a corner of the store and said, "Hey, look, is that handsome guy Zhang Kexuan, the lead singer of Simple Plan?"
The girls took a closer look, but no! Who is that man if not Zhang Kexuan? He looks cool and handsome from the side, quite handsome-looking.
Wang Xinran has always liked the band Simple Plan, especially the lead singer Zhang Kexuan. After all, he is the core of the band and the most handsome one in the band. Seeing Zhang Kexuan, she felt a little uneasy and said excitedly: "I want Zhang Kexuan to Sign me your name!"
The girl next to me said: "But they are filming a movie and the venue is booked, so we can't get in."
Wang Xinran said: "If you can't get in, just wait for a while!" As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly saw a somewhat familiar figure, Li Mu sitting behind the monitor.
Her eyes suddenly widened. Isn't that man the boyfriend of her sister Su Yingxue
