Chapter 514 : 'Partner' starts up, the duel between the two major Shidi!

Plans never keep up with changes.

Originally, Cao Jun thought that he would never be able to go to the United States in his life.

As a result, the next day, Chen Kexin called him and told him: "Director Cao, we will go to New York to film at that time. If it is convenient for you, you'd better get your visa in advance."

Cao Jun originally wanted to refuse, but when he thought that he had already signed a contract with Chen Kexin, he reluctantly agreed: "Okay Director Chen, no problem."

After talking to Chen Kexin on the phone, Cao Jun told Liu Qianqian about this matter.

Liu Qianqian asked him the specific time: "Brother, when will you go to the United States? I want to go with you!"

Cao Jun told the truth: "I don't know, maybe it will be a little later."

Liu Qianqian continued: "Then you remember to ask clearly first so that I can arrange the time."

Seeing that Qian Qian was so looking forward to traveling with him, Cao Jun was very pleased. He smiled and nodded: "Okay, I know."

October 8, morning.

The movie "Partners of China" directed by Chen Kexin and co-starring Cao Jun, Deng Chao and Tong Dawei started filming in Beijing in a low-key manner.

This movie tells the story of "turtle" Cheng Dongqing, "turtle" Meng Xiaojun and "angry youth" Wang Yang from the 1980s to the 21st century. In the great era, three young people met and got to know each other from their school days, and jointly founded an English training school.

, the story of finally realizing the "Chinese dream".

Because the story of the movie "Partners in China" alludes to New Oriental, Yu Minhong opposed the filming and did not want to give guidance: "I am still alive and well, what kind of movie should I make?"

Therefore, in the process of preparing "China Partners", Yu Minhong did not participate in any link, but the other two partners were willing to cooperate, and they also met and talked with Cheng Kexin, and added certain details in the story.

After the movie "Partners of China" started shooting, Cao Jun went all out and devoted himself to the role of "Cheng Dongqing".

Cao Jun is also ambitious on the road to acting. Since becoming a Grand Slam TV star with "Latent", he now lacks everything except the best actor throne.

Obviously, Cao Jun participated in the movie "Partners of China" this time for the purpose of winning an award.

However, this time the cooperation between Cao Jun and Deng Chao was also a head-on confrontation between the two.

Although Deng Chao's achievements in the film and television industry are far inferior to those of Cao Jun, his acting skills are at the level of a movie actor, and he is a veritable drama lunatic.

In the scene in the film where Deng Chao was sent abroad at the airport, "Meng Xiaojun" originally did not cry, but Deng Chao had been wondering whether the rational "Meng Xiaojun" should cry. After the filming of the version in which he did not cry at first, Deng Chao asked

Peter Chan "sends him one more".

He tried to make a smile gesture to his two friends, turned his head, and started crying quietly.

In the end, Peter Chan adopted this version.

In a scene where Deng Chao stood by the pool and told Cao Jun about his plan to go public, "Meng Xiaojun" did not jump in originally, but Deng Chao believed that "Meng is an American at heart. After the matter is said and working hours are over, he can start playing immediately."

".

Deng Chao was about to jump down with his clothes on, which made all the staff panic. The props master rushed over and asked Deng Chao to take off his watch. The costume master was worried that his clothes would get wet and wanted to collect his tie and shoes.

But Chen Kexin stopped them and agreed with Deng Chao to jump down.

During the filming process, Deng Chao would always ask the director for "one more shot". Chen Kexin had a deep understanding of Deng Chao's creative enthusiasm for "give me one more shot." He thought it was okay, but Deng Chao still wanted to

It took five more performances before I was satisfied.

Chen Kexin lamented that Deng Chao was the "most difficult" actor after Takeshi Kaneshiro.

Compared with the "acting madman" Deng Chao, Cao Jun's attitude towards performance is obviously not so passionate and crazy.

To a certain extent, Cao Jun's requirements for himself were not as high as those of Deng Chao. Basically, he thought it was okay. The director also said that he would hardly ask for another one.

Because Cao Jun feels that Cheng Dongqing in the script "Hua Guo Partner" has been written very realistic and down-to-earth

It's a very fleshed-out character, so there's no need to deliberately change anything. As long as the performance is performed according to the script, there should be no problem.

Moreover, Cao Jun also admitted that he is not a particularly smart actor. He prefers to immerse himself in the character's state and try to play the character as real and natural as possible.

In the film "Partners of China", Cao Jun no longer sells handsomeness and affection. Instead, he uses his nerdy appearance in the first half and his emotional burst in the second half. Through the emotional convergence and advancement during the period, a smooth transition is formed...

This gentle and silent performance method makes people feel very comfortable. It has not only won praise from opponents Deng Chao and Tong Dawei, but also received high praise from Chen Kexin.

In the opinion of director Peter Chan, although Deng Chao's attitude toward performance was crazy and vigorous, he always gave people a tense feeling, very reserved and never relaxed enough.

As for Cheng Dongqing played by Cao Jun, it feels natural and does not make people feel deliberate.

In addition to Cao Jun and Deng Chao, another actor in the cast, Tong Dawei, contributed a performance in the movie "Partners of China" second only to that in the movie "Apple".

On the first day that Tong Dawei joined the team for filming, he arranged a drunken scene. In order to make the acting realistic, Tong Dawei asked the director to prepare some real wine for him, and the photographer Du Kefeng brought out his own collection.

Afterwards, Tong Dawei still remembered the filming process, but he didn't know what happened after the filming.

Of course, being able to allow the three male actors Cao Jun, Deng Chao, and Tong Dawei to display their own strengths and characteristics at the same time would also be inseparable from the advice and guidance of director Chen Kexin.

Under the control of director Peter Chan, the movie "Partners in China" is not just about the growth of an educational institution, it also contains campus love like "To Youth".

But director Peter Chan has opened up a broader perspective for the film, implanting the background of the 30 years of great changes since the 1980s into it, and on this background, he can fully outline the passionate struggle of that generation of youth.

As a Hong Kong director, Cheng Kexin is able to delicately capture the changes of the times in the Mainland, which can definitely be said to be very attentive.

Because many Hong Kong directors come to the mainland to film, the films they produce are difficult to resonate with mainland audiences because they live in two societies with very different customs and customs.

Although Xiangjiang is China's Xiangjiang, many people in Xiangjiang do not know or are familiar with the mainland, let alone making movies for mainland audiences.
