Chapter 363 Feeling

() Found the way home!

"One, two, three, and four red roses were cut off and inserted into the vase..."

"What are the things written about this..." Xiaomei, a senior girl played by the drunken Li Xia, jumped out in a hoarse voice, and couldn't help but complain.

"Crack" Li Shaohong frowned. Li Xia's role was not a big problem, but Li Xia is a little thinner now. She looks less like a girl who spent a nightclub the night before. She lacks that feeling.

"Director Li, what's the problem?" Zhuang Qiubai, who was waiting aside, hurried over. Li Xia's scene only had one day, and he could rush to Yanjing in the afternoon of filming. Chen Fang contacted Li Xia again with a character in "Soon of the Year", which was even more serious than the scene here.

"Agent Zhuang, if it really doesn't work, let's change the actors." Li Shaohong was not right. Zhuang Qiubai is also an old man in the circle. The two had a relationship when filming "Orange is Red", and the role of Xiaomei only has a few scenes, so she agreed without too much consideration when she recommended the actors.

"Aunt Hong, what's going on?" Chen Fang, who was talking to Qin Mohan outside, saw that he stopped here and hurried over to ask. After the filming of several scenes here, he would be filming the scenes of Xiang Qianjin and Meng Lijun rehearsing the song.

Li Shaohong told Chen Fang about the situation and suggested: "I didn't choose a good role this time. If it really doesn't work, let's change the actor."

Chen Fang saw Li Xia who was lonely and sad, remembering the scene when he met her in a bar before, and suggested to Li Shaohong: "Aunt Hong, don't you want to find the feeling of a nightclub queen? You don't have to have a hot body to feel." Chen Fang called Li Xia over and said to Li Shaohong: "She used to sing in my bar, but she didn't dress up like this purely. At that time, she had a small dreadlock, a small leather jacket, hot pants and long boots, and a thick smoky makeup. She was also an alternative nightclub queen."

Chen Fang's suggestion made Li Shaohong's eyes lit up. Chen Fang, who opened a bar, knew the most. Li Shaohong called the makeup artist over and asked her to re-dress Li Xia according to Chen Fang's suggestion. Although it would take a few hours, it would be better than changing actors.

Chen Fang came to Qin Mohan and was about to continue to assist her in singing. Qin Mohan pinched her from an angle that others did not notice: "You remember her before."

Chen Fang said to Qin Mohan with a bitter face: "Yesterday I was enthusiastic about introducing resources to them, but today I started to break up the jealousy. Qin Mohan, I think you are not from Xijiang but from Jinzhou."

"Haha, if I say I took the opportunity to pinch you on purpose, do you believe it?" Qin Mohan looked at him and showed a sly smile: "I made you tease me just now and always out of tune."

Qin Mohan's words made Chen Fang look at her hatefully and make a threatening gesture to her. Now he is on the shooting site and cannot retaliate against you. When he returns to the hotel, you will be beautiful.

In front of the mirror, Li Xia seemed to see herself a year ago, and she was dressed like this at that time. Because she often went to and from bars, she dressed herself up to be more social to scare away people who were ill-behaved.

Even with the company of big dogs, bad guys, girls, and others, I gradually got used to this dressing in order to integrate into the bar atmosphere. When I first met Han Xiao, the other party's jade-like dressing made me envious. Perhaps it was from then on that time that I really wanted to change my life. I wonder how they were? Love is gone and whether friendship can survive. Li Xia doesn't know. She hopes that she can find the answer this time when she returns to Beijing.

When Li Shaohong saw Li Xia in a hip-hop style, the feeling came instantly and asked the departments to continue filming. This time it went smoothly. The character she played was Li Xia's previous familiarity, so it ended half an hour earlier than Li Shaohong predicted.

"Mr. Chen, let's say goodbye first!" Zhuang Qiubai and Chen Fang thanked and said goodbye with Li Xia, who had already taken off their makeup.

Chen Fang said to Zhuang Qiubai: "You're welcome. Although Li Xia has just debuted, her qualifications are good. Take your time, I'll arrange for them to notify you if we have any suitable resources in the future."

"Thank you! With Mr. Chen, Li Xia's future is promising!" Zhuang Qiubai felt that this trip was worth it. With Chen Fang's words, several of his little artists will also benefit a lot from the future.

Then the crew filmed Qin Mohan's scenes, which were a lot of flashbacks needed to be interspersed with Qin Mohan's songs in the play, and these scenes told the audience about Chen Mengjun's miserable first half of his life.

Qin Mohan no longer looks as delicate as before. She is plain and does not have any makeup on her face. In order to show her malnutrition, the makeup artist turned her face into a sallow yellow; her long wavy hair was simply tied up, making her look messy; she wore a short-sleeved shirt with small cotton florals covering her pregnant belly for about five or six months; and a pair of gray trousers underneath, and the black cloth shoes had the retro feel of the 1960s and 1970s.

According to the script setting, Chen Mengjun's identity is a wealthy lady in the old society, so her behavior is still somewhat different from that of ordinary people, and her manners are well-educated and orderly. However, because she is in a special period, she must be careful and observe her appearance.

In this scene, she wanted to send her husband to the front line. Before leaving, the two of them were reluctant to leave. Her husband's hand brushed across her face, and she held her pregnant belly and she cried silently.

Although the camera is simple, the preparation time will take a long time, including surrounding environment, supporting props, and the costumes and hairstyles of other people appearing in the camera.

Chen Fang was pulled by Li Shaohong to make a guest appearance, playing Chen Mengjun's husband who had never shown his face and received a lunch box. Chen Fang asked Li Shaohong if he would add it to his cast list later. Li Shaohong refused: "I can add it to the extra for you, especially thanks."

"What's wrong? The extras have no human rights!" Chen Fang's request made Qin Mohan laugh at him for a long time, and he couldn't help but retort.

"No, don't talk nonsense." Qin Mohan saw that no one was paying attention to them, and hammered it on his shoulder: "Some time ago in Hengdian, director Er Dongsheng of Xiangjiang started a movie that was to show extras. He also took a scene in our crew."

"Is that so? You've appeared on the screen too?" Chen Fang asked curiously.

"Yes, but in their movies, we became passers-by. They are movies that reflect the struggle of small characters. There are several supporting characters in our crew who will be extras. When we film, they also film, but the angles are different."

Chen Fang said: "When this video comes out, we will go and have a look. This movie that can reflect the box office at the bottom of the film, and I don't know how attractive the box office is. If the finished product is OK, we will promote it to them at that time."

Qin Mohan said more determinedly: "The director of this drama is Er Dongsheng, who is also a famous director in Xiangjiang. The quality of the film should be fine. The main reason is that they are all extras and have no box office appeal."

Although the scene Qin Mohan is filming now will not exceed two minutes in the film, the shooting time takes three days. Here we need to show the changes in the past 30 to 40 years from sending her husband away to receiving bad news from her husband, raising her son alone, growing up, and becoming a handsome guy, getting into college, getting married and having children. The characters are changing, the scene is changing, and the props next to her are also changing.

"Aunt Hong, this process can be done to shoot a TV series." Chen Fang couldn't help but sigh. When he was filming "Left Ear", he already felt that shooting a movie required a lot of manpower and material resources. Although some shots flashed by, just like the scene where Li Bara was hit by a car, the crew had to film for one day and need to set the scene in advance. The roads involved need to be coordinated with the road administration department and the traffic management department to block the road. These all require the producer, director, and the crew's crew to communicate.

"So movies are a more meticulous and artistic job," said Li Shaohong: "Now using digital shooting has saved a lot of trouble. Some shots can be clearly reproduced on the spot. If you use film to shoot like before, uncertain shots will basically be taken several times. At that time, I felt sorry for just looking at wasted film."

Chen Fang looked at the busy staff of the crew and suggested to the producer Chen Ling, who was beside him: "The Dragon Boat Festival will be coming in a few days. Qin Mohan and I will leave the group tomorrow. We can't have a dinner with everyone. Today I will invite everyone to Huifanglou for dinner. It can be regarded as rewarding everyone for the fatigue of this period."

Chen Ling was very moved by this proposal and went directly to explain to the heads of several departments. The busy people became even more excited when they heard the news and said loudly to Chen Fang: "Thank you, Boss Shen!"

"The crews don't have a holiday on Dragon Boat Festival, but our crew actually comes according to the national legal holiday." Looking at the enthusiastic crew members, Li Shaohong said speechlessly at Chen Fang: "But it's not to mention that with this holiday, they are much more motivated to work."

"Aunt Hong, this is called a combination of work and rest." Chen Fang smiled and said, "I asked Weiran to prepare rice dumplings and salted eggs, one for each person. Please inform the crew of the crew to get it when the holiday is over."

"Sell this favor to me?" Seeing Chen Fang nodding, Li Shaohong said kindly: "Thank you! You are still thoughtful. Chen Ling and I haven't been able to care about this in the past few days."

"As long as you don't blame me for kidnapping Qin Mohan."

"Who made you so full of reasons?" Li Shaohong said: "But you have to make sure you will be on the crew on the evening of the Sixth, and Qin Mohan will be in the early morning of the seventh."

"Okay, I guarantee that there will be no delay." Chen Fang promised.

Tomorrow on May 30, the cartoon "The Return of the Great Sage", which was created by Guifu Tiangong for two years, will premiere in Yanjing. Chen Lei has already notified him. In addition to being the voice actor Qin Mohan needs to participate, Chen Fang also asked all the stars who could notify him to come to support him.

Then on June 5th, the eighth day of the fifth lunar month, it was also the 85th birthday of the old lady of the Shen family. The old saying goes 73 and 84 are the hurdles. Last year, the whole family had a tacit understanding and did not mention the old lady’s birthday. This year’s hurdles have passed, so I plan to celebrate her well. Even the Shen family from Xiangjiang and Xiao Shenhao, who was studying in the UK, rushed over to celebrate the old lady’s birthday.

So Li Shaohong planned to take advantage of the days before and after the holidays to film Gui Yalei's scenes first, and wait until Qin Mohan comes back before rushing to make progress.

Huifanglou got the crew reservation in advance and emptyed the entire hall. There were more than 70 crew members, including actors, agents, and assistants. There were more than a dozen tables. Chen Ling received Chen Fang's instructions and did not save him money. It was arranged according to high standards. All the crew members who participated also received a holiday gift and left excitedly after the dinner.

"Weiran, do you want to go back to Shanghai with us on the Dragon Boat Festival?" Chen Fang asked Chen Weiran, who was still cleaning up the mess.
