Chapter 108 Start Shooting 【Monthly Pass】
But when Wang Xiaole opened "Piracy Notes" and read it word by word and was about to pick it up, he was deeply attracted by the fantasy and bizarre content in the book.
Tushizi, blood corpse, rice dumplings, and backfighting. A strange noun made the article more mysterious. Wang Xiaole began to immerse himself in it. When he saw Wu Xie entering the corpse-storing land, his expression was tense. These simple and unpretentious words seemed to have a special charm, which made Wang Xiaole feel immersive.
I kept seeing the appearance of the young man, and the article came to an abrupt end. Wang Xiaole cursed the dog out of context, and then opened the book review area unfairly and began to leave messages to urge me to update.
But when Wang Xiaole recovered and looked at the classmates sleeping in the classroom, he suddenly felt a chill. Didn’t these neat figures look like the rows of corpses in the corpse?
The hot sun outside the window did not bring any warmth to Wang Xiaole, but instead made him get goosebumps. Wang Xiaole patted his face hard, then calmed down, muttering words in his mouth, everything in the novel was fake, and everything in the novel was fake.
At this moment, a hand suddenly appeared behind Wang Xiaole, grabbing his shoulder. Wang Xiaole, who was already very nervous, was immediately frightened and screamed.
A few days after Xu Wenruo uploaded "The Tomb Robbers' Chronicles", there was no response, and there were not even a few readers. However, Xu Wenruo was not in a hurry at all, because he knew that it was gold and this magical book would definitely not be buried.
As time goes by, as the number of words in "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" increases, many readers also noticed the book, and Wang Xiaole also posted at the gathering place of Xu Wenruo's fans, saying that he had discovered Xu Wenruo's major secret.
Many of Xu Wenruo's fans chose to come here. On the Final Chinese website, the data of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" began to rise wildly, reaching the top of the best-selling list for several consecutive days, but Xu Wenruo has not yet reached the number of words on the shelves.
There are also many works that are very strange. This guy named I am not Xu Wenruo. Which big guy is so famous? The first-level small quotation is actually side by side with the platinum boss. It's so terrifying!
In the next two months, Xu Wenruo's fans suddenly discovered that their idol was missing, and there was no news about Xu Wenruo from major variety shows. After Xu Wenruo released the album, he disappeared from the public's sight.
However, many students from Peking University posted many photos of Xu Wenruo in class to dispel the doubts of fans. It seems that Xu Wenruo is studying hard recently.
Although they were not very satisfied with Xu Wenruo's sudden low-key choice to study, they still expressed their blessings to Xu Wenruo. Only a small number of fans knew that their idol Xu Wenruo was suspected of writing novels, because the novel that was popular at the end point was evidence.
However, this speculation was not recognized by Xu Wenruo himself, but a small group of fans firmly believed that this was the book written by Xu Wenruo. After all, the song "Grave Robbers' Chronicles - Ten Years of the World" was obviously written for this book, and then the information being filmed in the introduction was recalled.
They had a bold guess, that is, Xu Wenruo might have to film a film and television drama next. These people are the most active high school student Wang Xiaole. While chasing updates every day, they also look for clues online to verify their views.
Two months passed in a flash, and Xu Wenruo and his group came to the film and television base in Langya City in a mighty manner. The entire crew first gathered in the capital, and then moved to Langya City.
Since there was no crowd nearby, Xu Wenruo rented more than a dozen villas in the villa area to accommodate the crew. This decision was favored by all staff. After all, they didn’t have many opportunities to live in the villa, so they immediately lived with many people, but it was also a rare experience.
The arrival of the crew has made this suburb more popular, and the Langya City officials were very relieved to see Xu Wenruo's actions. They liked someone like Xu Wenruo. The film and television base has just been approved for a few months. Not only have some buildings started to be built, but they have even started to be put into use.
If it were other companies, they might not have a development plan within one or two years. After the construction is completed, the daylily will probably be cold. Then, like Xu Wenruo, it will be fast.
The day after coming to Langya, Xu Wenruo announced that the crew was officially started. He did not hold a grand opening ceremony like other directors, and he had to worship God. Although Xu Wenruo also respected Guan Erye very much, Xu Wenruo felt that he should not know much about filming.
Before the filming officially started, Xu Wenruo specially found Teacher Yu Wei. Although he may not necessarily have Xu Wenruo's popularity alone, he can definitely surpass Xu Wenruo in terms of filming experience.
"Teacher Yu Wei, please help me."
"Director Xu, if you have any questions, just agree, I will try my best to help if I can."
When he heard that Xu Wenruo came to him specifically, Teacher Yu Wei was very polite. Even though Xu Wenruo was nearly twenty years younger than him, after he came to the crew, he always called Xu Wenruo Director Xu. Even if Xu Wenruo repeatedly asked, he insisted on not changing his words, and then Xu Wenruo had to let him call him.
"That's right, Teacher Yu Wei, the starring actors are all newcomers who have never acted in the play. Although they are all true to their true nature, they are inexperienced after all. I want you to teach you how to act."
Hearing Xu Wenruo's request, Teacher Yu Wei's eyes were stunned for a moment, and he suddenly felt fooled. Even though he thought Xu Wenruo's script was really good, he was the only starring actor in the whole drama, which was reliable.
The other supporting roles are pretty good. They are all powerful players who struggle in the film and television industry. Although they are not called veteran actors, they are still experienced. The only problem with the possibility that Xu Wenruo and the three starring actors are Xu Wenruo.
However, this drama is full of scenes of these three people. Once it is bad, the drama will not be able to be filmed at all. This is an important reason why Xu Wenruo asked Yu Wei.
"No problem. When I don't have my role, I will watch it. I am willing to teach, and you must be willing to learn."
"Don't worry, we must learn humbly."
"You say that, that's fine."
Teacher Yu Wei nodded at Xu Wenruo, with a smile between his eyebrows and agreed to Xu Wenruo's request very kindly.
Since Xu Wenruo is not a professional director, he did not plan the clips of the series, but filmed from beginning to end. Although this would waste some time, this method is more friendly to the actors and easier to integrate into the scenes, and the scenes shot will be better.
In their previous lives, American, Korean and Japanese dramas were all weekly broadcasts, that is, filming while broadcasting. Therefore, it is impossible for them to plan the entire drama in a coordinated manner, but to shoot according to the progress of the plot.
In order to save time and money, domestic film and television dramas break all the plot of the entire drama and then shoot them according to the scene. It may be the last second or the first episode that just appeared, or the next second, the finale will be the next second, which makes actors who do not have much acting skills unable to integrate into the plot at all.
Of course, this is only part of the reason. There are also many actors who choose to cut pictures, which do not require acting skills at all, only artwork and editing.
It is said that there is also a situation where every actor has finished filming all the scenes. After all, time is valuable, and they don’t have time to waste on the crew.
Of course, all this cannot appear in Xu Wenruo's crew. Xu Wenruo is not only directed and acted by himself, but also the investor. No one in the crew has more power than him, and everyone has to film according to Xu Wenruo's will.
In fact, this drama doesn’t require any acting skills, especially for Xu Wenruo and the other two. Wu Xie was an innocent and silly white sweet at the beginning, and Fatty Wang was just a joke-making entertainment agent, and there was not much need for the muffled oil bottle. He didn’t say anything throughout the whole process, and he didn’t have many lines.
Perhaps the only one who needs acting is the third uncle Wu Sansheng, and his actor is Mr. Yu Wei. Xu Wenruo doesn’t have to worry about Mr. Yu Wei’s acting skills at all. Uncle Liu can definitely play the evil-minded third uncle.
Therefore, when the filming was first started, Wu Xuan was still a little unwilling to let go, but Wu Xie, who had just appeared, was always accompanied by Wu Sansheng. Teacher Yu Wei was very patient to help Wu Xuan get into the role. Even though the start was a little bumpy, he slowly got into the state.
"Car, take a break first, and then take a photo."
Xu Wenruo looked at the shot just shot, compared with the scene in his impression, and then breathed a sigh of relief. Yu Wei, who was standing beside him, was eating melon seeds while looking at Xu Wenruo, and couldn't help but sigh.
"I thought this kid would have to be a while before he could get into the show, but he didn't expect that he would get into the state so soon."
"It is not very difficult to play the role of the true nature now. The most difficult part is the change in the character's character later, and the good show is still behind."
"Hahaha, don't worry, the good guy has his own appearance. He is not stupid yet, he should be able to get to know the truth later."
Yu Wei looked at Xu Wenruo, who was still alive. He had been having some questions during the shooting these two days, and finally couldn't help asking.
"Do you plan to film one episode after another according to the plot process?"
After just two days of filming, Yu Wei saw Xu Wenruo’s plan. After all, he is an experienced actor. He has a lot of experience in the set and can easily make a guess.
"Yes, I don't want to mess up the plot and then shoot it again. It feels better to shoot it once."
"Your way of shooting is rare."
Teacher Yu Wei raised his eyebrows, and a hint of surprise and appreciation flashed in his eyes. Although Xu Wenruo is a newcomer, he has a lot of ideas and dares to break the boundaries of tradition, or he doesn't care about the traditions of any industry at all.
For example, in the previous digital album, Xu Wenruo did not follow the rules at all, and did not feel comfortable with the rules and regulations at all. This is something that many people find difficult to do.
"The films made in this way will be better, and the performance of the actors will be a waste of money and time. Teacher Yu Wei, don't mind wasting some time."
"I don't mind, I can only make the show well, I'll follow your arrangements."
Teacher Yu Wei is a very pure actor. In his opinion, being able to shoot a good show is the most important thing. Wasting some time is nothing. He also supports Xu Wenruo's shooting like this.
The biggest veteran actor in the entire crew supports Xu Wenruo, and of course others will not object. After all, you will get a salary for one day of work. Xu Wenruo doesn't feel sorry for the money, and these staff members will not mind even more.
Although Xu Wenruo is a new director and has no expression on the set, all the staff respect him very much. Except for Xu Wenruo, who is a very famous and talented idol star, he is also everyone's big boss. Can workers disrespect the boss when they see him? This is related to their jobs.
Xu Wenruo holds the power of life and death for everyone. When he first joined the group, he repeatedly emphasized that even if the person in charge of the business on the set was Wang Gui, everyone knew who the boss was, and offending Wang Gui would be punished. However, once offending Xu Wenruo, it would be the end of just being covered and leaving.
But Xu Wenruo did not rely on scaring these staff to make them surrender, but instead relied on favors to win over people. For example, rented a villa for everyone in the crew to live in. For example, the daily meals are specially made by chefs, and the standards are very high. After all, Xu Wenruo is a foodie and will definitely not treat his own people badly in terms of food.
Being a director does not have to kill a chicken to warn the monkey to show his majesty. Only by letting everyone understand that Xu Wenruo has the ability to kill a chicken but is very good to them, he can gain the respect of these people. Without the bow and arrow that is shot, he can also shock people.
Besides, everyone is a migrant worker, so why bother to make things difficult for the workers? Everyone works in a harmonious manner. That salary is better. Xu Wenruo's salary is very favorable, and they don't require them to be a cow or a horse. Just finish the work with care.
If these staff members are not satisfied, then Xu Wenruo really has to select some people to start the operation. Will these people who have been on the set for many years think that Xu Wenruo's knife is not good?
Hum? No, Xu Wenruo is no longer a working person now. He is a big boss and a capitalist of the people. He works overtime for me! This is a blessing that I will never enjoy in eight lifetimes.
Xu Wenruo did not lose his temper in the crew. The person who really strictly required all staff was Wang Gui. Xu Wenruo gave him great power, and even no less power than other directors. Except for the filming content that Xu Wenruo needs to strictly control, everything else is under Wang Gui's control.
