Chapter 010 Radical school grass
...........
Pattering...
A heavy downpour shrouded the entire city in clouds and fog.
The weather in Chongqing is like a Sichuan opera where it rains when it says it will rain. There are no rules at all.
In the hotel room.
Fang Ziheng and Lin Feifei were checking the account books, crew expenses, prop expenses, venue rental, and labor wages, one by one.
Lin Feifei is the producer of "The Unknown" and oversees all matters of the crew. As an investor, producer, and director, Fang Ziheng also needs to understand the crew's capital flow.
The movie has been shot for five days, and there is a thick stack of expenses.
"The police have decided to start filming the day after tomorrow. They can spare three days to help us shoot two scenes."
"Well... we will shoot the robbery scene first, and then we will shoot the final big scene. It will be easy first and then difficult."
"Okay, I'll notify the crew and actors later."
Lin Feifei put away her account book, brushed her hair between her ears, and said to Fang Ziheng, who stood up and walked to the window: "I received a call from China Film Group Corporation this morning, saying that a producer would be sent over in a while."
"Come just come, people have invested money."
Fang Ziheng smiled, took out a cigarette and lit it, opened the window and stretched his hand out to touch the rain.
After all, China Film Group is a state-owned enterprise, and he is a new director, so it is normal to be worried.
Not to mention Fang Ziheng's movies, but also Li Min and Lao Mouzi's movies, people have to send people into the team to supervise.
People from China Film Group do not necessarily supervise the flow of funds, but more importantly understand the filming progress and quality of the film.
It’s just an investment of three million, but China Film would have to pull the hair off its legs to make more than this amount.
"By the way, Director Fang, we will shoot the campus scenes tomorrow."
"I know."
Concubine Lin stood up, glanced at Fang Ziheng, pursed her lips and chuckled: "I mean you have a show tomorrow, aren't you going to prepare?"
"hehe...."
Fang Ziheng hummed twice but said nothing.
Sister Lin, you are walking on a narrow road!
October 6th.
The crew of "The Unknown" entered the campus to film the scenes between Gao Xiang and Ma Yiyi.
Since the scenes were not too difficult, the actors got into the mood quickly.
However, the filming was all outdoor scenes, and the progress was not very fast. Instead, it was like a grinding time.
This was done deliberately by Fang Ziheng. There were many outdoor scenes and the details of the actors were not strict.
Chamber plays are different. Most of them are literary plays, which require very high acting skills.
In the principal's office, Fang Ziheng chatted with several middle school leaders and set off for the set.
In the name of Hengyu Film and Television, Lin Feifei donated a batch of seats, stools, and three sets of projection equipment to the school, and easily secured the rental of the venue.
"Everyone in his place."
"Scene 20, fifth shot for the first time."
"start!"
During the school break, Ma Yiyi left angrily when she heard her father using two pounds of lining to please the teacher.
Ma Xianyong hurriedly chased his daughter, but was stopped by his daughter's classmate Gao Xiang who came over.
Gao Xiang, played by Fang Ziheng, was wearing a school uniform and had short, lean hair. He jumped out of the crowd to stop Ma Xianyong and protected Ma Yiyi, played by Song Yi, behind him.
"Yiyi, don't be afraid of what he's going to do again!"
Fang Ziheng's brows stood up, his face full of anger, not giving Ma Xianyong any face.
Gao Xiang is the school belle of the middle school, and Ma Yiyi is the school belle. Because of their father's relationship, the two have been familiar with each other since childhood, and they have a vague affection for each other.
Seeing that Ma Yiyi had been wronged, he stood up immediately.
As for Ma Xianyong, he had just extorted hundreds of dollars from Jiukong, his face still bore scars from being beaten by gangsters, and his security uniform was full of stains and dirt.
The whole scene was dusty and incompatible with the school environment.
"Yiyi, come here!"
Facing his father's shouting, Song Yi gritted his teeth and remained motionless.
"I asked you to come over, but you didn't hear me."
Yu Hewei was brewing his emotions, breathing heavily, and there was a fire in his heart, which finally burst out at his daughter's school.
Whoosh...
Yu Hewei took a step forward, pushed Fang Ziheng out of the way, and pulled the reluctant Song Yi forward.
"Why are you running? Ah...!"
Snapped..!
He slapped his daughter on the arm with great force.
Song Yi gritted her teeth, frowned deeply, and remained silent.
Seeing that his daughter ignored him, Yu Hewei raised his palm again. Song Yi was startled and jumped away like a frightened little white rabbit.
"Click...!"
At a critical moment in the plot, everyone's emotions had just been aroused, but they were suddenly interrupted by Fang Ziheng raising his hand.
It was as if a mouthful of reverse blood had hit their heads, and several actors were puzzled.
"Song Yi, you hid too quickly and your movements were too unfamiliar."
Asking the crew to stop, Fang Ziheng pointed at Yu Hewei and said to Song Yi who had regained his composure: "You are father and daughter. Although your father is a bastard, he has never touched you a few times. Occasionally he would hit you on the arm and shoulder.
."
"The way you were hiding just now was so scary. It's not like you were facing a bad person. The reason why you were hiding was because you didn't want your classmates to see you being beaten in school.
On the other hand, you are very disappointed in your father, so you resist a little.
Remember, apart from your current disappointment and later complaints about your father, you don’t have the word fear."
"Director, I understand, give me some time."
Song Yi nodded, walked aside, opened the script and fell into deep thought, thinking about the role of Ma Yiyi.
After analyzing Ma Yiyi's heart at this moment in detail, Fang Ziheng frowned at Song Yi's outfit.
After looking at it for a while, he finally realized something was wrong.
The school uniform Song Yi is wearing is so new. Comparing it with the uniforms of the classmates around her, well, it looks like new clothes that have just been unpacked.
"Props, find an older school uniform for Song Yi!"
"Ready soon, director!"
"Everyone, take a break and start working in half an hour."
Back in front of the monitor, Fang Ziheng checked the finished footage, looking for any deficiencies bit by bit.
Song Yi's acting skills are among the best among her peers, but facing veteran actors like He Wei, she is still far behind.
It wouldn't be obvious in a TV series, but on the big screen, the audience can see it accurately.
After looking for a while and not finding any major problems, Fang Ziheng stood up and found Yu Hewei.
Let him be a little more restrained when acting opposite Song Yi, so as not to hit the little girl too badly.
"I understand, director, just take a look." Yu Hewei agreed with a smile, quite happily.
An hour later, we finally finished the scene for the three of us.
The crew changed scenes and officially started filming Fang Ziheng's shocking scene.
"Everyone in your place!"
"The twenty-first shot, the second shot, the fourth shot!"
"start!"
Assistant director Wen Muye shouted loudly with a small speaker.
Recording board!
The studio suddenly became extremely quiet.
The sun sets in the west.
In a corner of the school playground, under the steps outside the basketball court, Gao Xiang, played by Fang Ziheng, has his hands in his pockets, full of personality.
"Gao Xiang, what exactly are you thinking?"
"Really do it!"
Several classmates who usually played well squatted on the steps and anxiously asked their good brother Gao Xiang what he thought.
Gao Xiang is the son of a developer named Gao Ming. He has a lot of pocket money and often entertains guests. He is also a kindhearted person in school, so he has made many friends with similar temperaments.
"We must take action."
"I, Lao Hai, are currently being chased for debts. My life or death is uncertain. Those bastards have been looking for me, Lao Hai."
Looking at the eyes of his classmates, Fang Ziheng looked serious and stated his plan categorically.
"Everyone will gather at Le'er at six o'clock tomorrow night and set off on time at seven o'clock."
"It's okay if that turtle grandson doesn't show up. Once he does, I will definitely kill him."
"Bald, please call more brothers from the school sports team."
"Fat man, every single one of the male classmates in the class calls me out!"
Fang Ziheng announced the plan he had been planning for a long time to his classmates in order to gain everyone's support.
At this time, drizzle fell from the sky. Fang Ziheng braved the rain and looked solemnly at his good brothers, waved and strode away.
Several classmates stared at his back blankly, not knowing what to make for a moment.
Is it really okay for middle school students to bring people to fight in society?
What should I do if the school finds out?
The students murmured in their hearts, wanting to help Gao Xiang but also a little scared.
Finally, they went home from school with hesitation and entanglement.
In the distance, Ma Yiyi, played by Song Yi, gasped in panic and trotted over in the rain, trying to stop the aggressive Gao Xiang.
However, when she arrived at the basketball court, Gao Xiang and his classmates had already left.
The little girl clenched her fists tightly, feeling angry and anxious, hiding her feet!
"Click..."
"Very good, I'm keeping one."
After pre-rehearsal and more than half an hour of filming, the scene was finally over.
Fang Ziheng returned to the monitor and looked at it, expressing that he was very satisfied with his acting skills.
Chapter completed!
