Feng Kai lit a cigarette and started smoking silently.
not far away.
Zhou Yang held the script and told the three actors what he wanted to see in the first scene over and over again. He even went to the stage to demonstrate by jumping up and down like a monkey.
He really teaches attentively, and works very hard to show what he wants to see using body language so that they can understand it.
He was almost drooling.
but……
It looks funny and a bit regretful.
Feng Kai glanced at the three of them out of the corner of his eye.
Although the three of them were watching and thinking carefully, they seemed a little at a loss.
Obviously, Zhou Yang's demonstration was not a success.
Is this what he taught before?
Teach like this...
Can you really teach a good actor?
Why does it look like a monkey show?
Feng Kai suddenly doubted the authenticity of what he saw on the camera during the day.
Isn't it normal to shoot a decent clip if the cycle continues like this?
The moonlight shines on this land, making it look cold and vast.
Feng Kai put out his cigarette butt and glanced again at Zhou Yang, who was telling the script vividly under the moonlight.
This man is very energetic, as if he never feels tired.
However, you are not a professional yourself. No matter how hard you work and work hard, it will all come to nothing in the end?
Feng Kai yawned and thought to himself, "Idiot," and then turned around and walked towards the dormitory.
It is impossible for him to guide Zhou Yang on how to train these miners, let alone participate in it. This is a completely thankless and stupid thing!
When you find actors like this, you have to have this kind of awareness.
Aren't you very capable?
Aren’t you at the Golden Horse Awards, Cannes, or Berlin?
Are you going?
Without diamonds, what kind of porcelain work can you do?
After returning to the room, Feng Kai lay on the bed.
The conditions in the mountains are really tough.
There is no signal on the mobile phone, and there is often no hot water. The hot water that I finally got was very turbid at first sight, and I didn't dare to apply it on my face.
Feng Kai suddenly missed the small hotel at the foot of the mountain.
At least the small hotel down the mountain can have clean hot water.
Late at night.
Most of the crew members were tossing and turning and couldn't sleep.
Feng Kai couldn't sleep either.
After lying on the bed for a while, I always felt itchy, as if there were bugs crawling on my body. After scratching for a long time, it became more and more itchy.
This was not the most speechless thing. The most speechless thing was that he turned on the light and searched repeatedly between the beds for a long time but could not find the bugs.
What kind of microorganism is it?
He was very speechless and lit another cigarette, and then felt very boring and dry.
He simply walked out of the house to get some fresh air.
Before he finished smoking a cigarette, he saw that the lights were still on in Zhou Yang's room.
Is this guy still awake?
Can't sleep either?
He moved closer.
After getting closer, he heard chattering sounds coming from the house.
Is this guy crazy?
Through the window, he saw Zhou Yang reading a book.
Moreover, while reading a book, he was also gesturing with his hands, like a psychopath immersed in his own world.
Don’t let yourself go crazy before the movie is finished!
Feng Kai shrugged.
…………………………
A very ironic scene often appears on the set of "Mineral".
The crew and the assistant director stayed in the shooting area and did not work. They often played cards in the room or wandered in the mountains, seemingly doing nothing.
The director carried the camera every day and went down to the well with the actors to shoot until dusk.
Every time when he comes out, the director looks embarrassed. After washing and tidying up, the director will talk to the actors about the drama and the next plot.
Late at night after the lecture, the director would stay up reading and studying...
This is a kind of seriousness engraved in the bones.
The same crew was actually divided into two groups. Although they greeted each other politely, they were doing two completely different things.
This is indeed ironic.
This state of affairs lasted until December.
December brings not only the cooling of the weather, but also a sense of mental torture for the people on the set.
They originally came here to watch Zhou Yang's jokes.
They wanted to see when this boastful guy would give up or when he would give in to them.
At first, they bet that within two days or three days at the latest, Zhou Yang would come over and beg them for help.
but……
Day by day, Zhou Yang not only did not give in to them, but continued to do his own thing very seriously.
And they...
Like a group of wandering ghosts.
"do not fight!"
"Grass!
"..."
December 1 at noon.
Qian Wei threw the cards to the ground.
He felt that this place was too oppressive and made him breathless.
He walked out of the room under the eyes of everyone.
Just in time, he saw Zhou Yang coming up from the well, breathing heavily all over his body, but his eyes were focused on the filming content.
He hesitated for a long time.
Finally walked towards Zhou Yang.
"Director Zhou..."
"Viagra?"
"Director Zhou, can I take a look?"
"OK."
"..."
Qian Wei saw the filming content.
The content is actually very simple, just the plot of "Murder in the Mine".
"Viagra, what do you think?"
"..."
After Qian Wei read it, he was silent for a long time.
The plot content is less than three minutes.
But these three minutes of content made Qian Wei unbelievable.
Zhou Yang’s shooting progress is amazing!
Not only Zhou Yang's progress is amazing, but the acting skills of these miners have also grown visibly.
Especially Chen Shuangbao!
In the video, the expression on his face as he squats down and chats with people about home affairs reveals a sinister and cold feeling from beginning to end.
Combined with the flickering light and dark at the bottom of the mine, the chill is even worse...
He no longer had the awkward feeling he had when he first took the photo.
What's even more incredible is the brief close-up of his eyes when he hits someone with a pickax in a muffled voice.
That kind of close-up is full of disregard for life.
It seems that what is being killed is not people, but chickens and sheep...
"Viagra?" Zhou Yang asked again after seeing Qian Wei's silence.
"..." Qian Wei still didn't answer Zhou Yang's words.
He just handed the camera to Zhou Yang, then lowered his head, as if thinking about it for a long, long time.
I don’t know how long it will take...
He just looked up.
"Director Zhou, is the mine safe?"
"It's safe for the time being... but it's not necessarily guaranteed."
"Director Zhou, let's shoot together in the afternoon."
"Um?"
"..."
Zhou Yang raised his head.
Then, when I saw Qian Wei's face with Chinese characters, it was full of seriousness.
……………………
Sunlight filtered through the window and shone on Feng Kai's face.
Feng Kai woke up from his nap.
He didn't hear the noise of the past, nor the sound of playing cards.
He got out of bed and took a sip of water.
Then opened the door.
He found that the crew became very quiet, almost scary.
It seemed that in the middle of the day, everyone had disappeared.
Feng Kai silently glanced at the shooting area.
He hesitated for a long time.
In fact, not only others felt tortured, but he also felt tortured.
On the one hand, he felt that the things Zhou Yang did were stupid and most of them were useless, but on the other hand, he felt a sense of condemnation from his conscience.
Every time he saw the lights in Zhou Yang's room late at night, and every time he saw Zhou Yang talking about drama with these people in the evening, a complex emotion would emerge deep in his heart.
People who work so hard...
What you did was stupid!
but……
Do you really deserve to be laughed at?
He finally finished reading the script of "The Bottom of the Mine".
After reading it, his eyes probably stayed blank for more than ten minutes.
There is a little bit of indescribable feeling of shock.
Even, for no apparent reason, I felt like I wanted to follow along and take pictures.
After more than ten minutes, he finally convinced himself and shook his head.
At least, he couldn't admit that the script was very well written. If he admitted it in his heart, it would be a failure!
At most, this script is okay and can be filmed!
right!
All I can say is that it can be photographed!
But you said that he was a little embarrassed to just come and hang out with Zhou Yang.
He feels that he is a person of status. After all, he has directed so many movies and worked with so many famous directors...
Why are you Zhou Yang?
You didn't come to invite me, why should I stick to your cold ass?
Besides, it’s so fucking dangerous for you to shoot this thing. If you’re going to go into the mine, you’re not even a little sincere. How could I go there shamelessly?
He felt that he needed a step down.
Even if it is a very simple step.
After all, so many people in the crew were watching him and following him up the mountain. If he gave in to Zhou Yang, wouldn't he be very embarrassed?
This tangled emotion lasted for a long time, until I heard a sound in the distant shooting area and watched Qian Wei walking out of the mine. I stopped, and it turned into a feeling of abandonment and loss.
He seems to have been abandoned...
This guy Qian Wei!
How to help Zhou Yang!
Didn’t he say that he didn’t go into the mines?
How did it go down?
Where should I put my face?
His face was ashen.
But then he lowered his head and walked towards Zhou Yang.
"Director Zhou... I think it is necessary to talk to you about the script... I have been reading your script these days, and I think your script needs to be changed a little..."
"..."
Feng Kai had a straight face and found himself a decent step.
