Facts have proved that Zhang Jizhong was indeed bragging, and it took a full week of shooting to complete this scene.
During this period, I was constantly trying to move the camera and adjust the lighting, and Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were also constantly cooperating.
However, it is not a dead end.
During the break, under the guidance of the teachers and using other lenses, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei completed many scenes.
However, having the experience of filming the same scene for so many days in a row made Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei a little speechless. However, knowing that Chen Kaige, Zhang Jizhong and Tang Jili were trying their best to achieve the most perfect effect for the picture, they also tried their best to do so every time.
Always maintain the best condition to cooperate.
"Chu Xuan, Qianqian, prepare to do it again."
Hearing this, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei on the set looked at each other, with a flash of bitterness.
Soon, the recorder came to take action.
"Two scenes and one shot, the 133rd time, let's begin!"
In front of the monitor, all the teachers stared at the screen.
Although this scene has made them feel a little bored these past few days, the pursuit of art is sometimes boring. Only by enduring such boredom and finally gaining something can there be greater joy.
In the screen, there is a wall with a space capsule door in the middle of the wall.
The camera did not move, but after adjusting the focus, the hatch became larger and larger, giving a close-up.
At this time, gentle footsteps were heard in the picture, and the camera began to adjust, slowly raising the lens in the direction of the footsteps, and the focal length became smaller, and the field of view of the picture became wider.
As the field of view gradually widens, Liu Yifei's shoes appear, her lower body appears, and her upper body appears.
At this moment, the sound of Chu Xuan's footsteps was heard, and the panoramic view of him and Liu Yifei appeared in the camera at the same time.
There was anger on Chu Xuan's face, but when he saw the door on the ground, his anger dissipated, and he opened and closed his mouth, showing slight surprise.
At this time, the whole picture showed that Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were standing on the wall and looking down at the door.
At the same time, the camera began to pull up, and the angle continued to adjust, always taking the laser point on the ground between Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei as the center and focus of the circle, and using the lens 2 meters away from the laser point as the radius, it began to move in an arc.
When the crane arm starts to rotate, the camera is also rotating. The double-rotating crane arm moves the camera to keep the focus of the picture unified.
The moment the camera passed over the heads of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei at a vertical angle, the camera rotated and began to shoot from behind and pull the lens back.
As the lens is pulled out, the object distance of the lens becomes farther. The picture first shows a close-up of the backs of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, then a medium shot of the upper body, then a long shot from the legs up, then a panoramic view of the back of the characters, and finally a combination of the surrounding environment.
Big panorama.
In the picture showing a large panorama, two props flashed past the lens.
When the camera slows down, a damaged clock is in front of the camera, and the silent rotation of the second hand left and right is clearly visible; an oil painting is in front of the clock, with yellow, blue, and white colors vaguely visible.
After capturing these two props, the camera began to slowly rise. Finally, in a medium-long shot, the backs of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were shown. The hatch in front of their backs was in a straight line with the two props, forming an arc.
perspective.
The focus of the camera was always on the laser point between the feet of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei.
"Click!"
Chen Kaige picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke, then paused.
Over at the crane machine, Zhang Jizhong and Tang Jili stopped their movements and waited for the next step.
In front of the monitor, Wen Mino and the other teachers watched quietly without speaking.
Chen Kaige played back the scene, keeping the walkie-talkie in his hand close to his mouth.
After he watched the replay, he said to the intercom: "Passed."
On the screen, Liu Yifei turned around and hugged Chu Xuan, saying happily: "It's finally over!"
In front of the monitor, Chen Kaige raised the corner of his mouth. Wen Muye and the teachers also breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other happily.
On the set, Chu Xuan picked her up and spun her around a few times to express his joy at finally having the biggest harvest in a week.
Zhang Jizhong and Tang Jili walked past the set.
"It's not easy." Zhang Jizhong shook his head.
"Indeed." Tang Jili nodded.
Hearing this, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei walked out of the set and came to the monitor with Zhang Jizhong and Tang Jili.
Everyone sat down and watched the screen playback.
While enjoying the visual impact brought by the movement of the mirror, I sighed.
"This crane is not good, it is not flexible enough." Tang Jili crossed his arms.
"Hollywood has developed a three-axis mechanical crane. All three sections can move 360 degrees, which is very flexible. To be honest, our two-axis crane is far behind. It takes about ten seconds to shoot.
After all, it takes so much effort to shoot, so the efficiency is too low." He added.
"According to this, even the monitor with focus is not good. Hollywood still uses a tablet computer paired with a high-definition camera to position a fixed-focus lens like this." Zhang Jizhong also said.
Chu Xuan shook his head and said: "This is the backwardness of the film and television industry foundation. There is nothing we can do about it. But machines are dead and people are alive. Haven't we taken this shot yet? This kind of machine has not been developed in China yet.
Before, we could only use manpower and time to experiment."
Chu Xuan paused and then said: "Facts have proved that as long as you put your heart into it, there is no shot that cannot be completed."
The teachers smiled slightly, and were slightly infected by Chu Xuan's words, and a warm-blooded momentum arose spontaneously.
"Xiaoxuan is right, the gap is for trying to catch up, not for complaining." Chen Kaige praised.
Tang Jili and Zhang Jizhong were speechless. Is Chen Kaige referring to Sang and Huai?
Liu Yifei opened the bottle cap and took a sip of water. After listening to Chu Xuan's words, she looked at him with approval, then tightened the bottle cap and put the mineral water aside.
When putting down the mineral water, Liu Yifei quietly gave Wen Muye a wink.
Wen Mino immediately understood and said: "Let's finish the work today?"
Chu Xuan raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already six o'clock in the afternoon.
Normally, since the shooting in the studio is not affected by the weather, their shooting basically ends around 12 o'clock in the evening.
"The three teachers are going back to Beijing tomorrow, let's go have a meal together." Liu Xiaoli said suddenly.
Chu Xuan was startled, glanced at Chen Kaige and the others, and said, "Teacher Kaige, are you leaving tomorrow?"
Chen Kaige smiled gently and nodded slightly.
Chu Xuan nodded, but he felt like something was wrong.
But after listening to Liu Xiaoli's words, he still smiled and said: "Then I'll call it a day and give it to Teacher Kaige, Teacher Tang and Brother Zhang to practice it and successfully present the most difficult scene. I must thank you."
The corners of the teachers' mouths raised slightly. Wen Muye took the walkie-talkie and said to the crew, "call it a day." Then he and the teachers got up and walked out of the studio with his senior brothers and sisters.
At the entrance of the film and television base, paparazzi and reporters are still there. Many of them are already familiar to Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei. This kind of dedicated spirit regardless of rain or shine is admirable.
"The Condor" has been aired for 27 episodes. It has been popular for three consecutive weeks. Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are already the hottest beings at the moment. Any piece of news or a fresh picture will never lose their popularity.
In addition, the arrival of Chen Kaige, Tang Jili and Zhang Jizhong were photographed by the paparazzi and posted online. They were at the film and television base and traveling with Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei. It was not difficult for netizens to guess that it was a micro-movie with Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei.
related.
Normally, how many people would pay attention to a micro-movie?
However, with the popularity of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, the appearance of Chen Kaige and others, and the paparazzi and reporters helping to promote their own interests, not to mention netizens, people in the industry are becoming more and more curious about the micro-movies of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei.
Sci-fi micro-movie? Chen Kaige, Tang Ji Li, and Zhang Jizhong are all here? This micro-movie is worth looking forward to, and there are also a lot of discussions on the Internet.
Under the camera of paparazzi and reporters, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei got into the nanny car and commercial vehicle respectively and headed back to the hotel.
"Auntie, have you booked the private room?" Chu Xuan led Liu Yifei and followed Liu Xiaoli into the elevator.
"It's booked." Liu Xiaoli replied.
Chu Xuan nodded, but he always felt an unspeakable strangeness in his heart.
Call it a day early...
Chen Kaige and the others are leaving tomorrow...
have a meal together……
Liu Xiaoli booked a private room in advance...
Everything seemed normal, but Chu Xuan just felt something was wrong.
Liu Xiaoli glanced at Chu Xuan, looked away, looked at each other with her daughter, and each smiled secretly.
"Ding~" The elevator door opened.
Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli walked out and walked in the corridor on the private floor of the hotel restaurant.
After turning a few corners, Liu Xiaoli stopped in front of a private room door, but stretched out her hand to signal Chu Xuan to open the door.
Chu Xuan was slightly startled and felt a little confused. Is it necessary to give way when the door is opened?
With inexplicable thoughts, he reached out and twisted the door handle, then opened the door.
The moment the door opened, before he could take a closer look, the people in the box started singing happily.
"Happy birthday to you……"
"Happy birthday to you……"
Facing the playful birthday song, Chu Xuan glanced around the box. Wang Jinhua, Li Congtong, Ren Quan, Zhao Jian, Huang Lei and Su Chang, Jiang Xin, Huang Xuan, Zhao Liying and other actors from "Zhu Xian" were all smiling.
Look at him.
Chu Xuan picked up his phone and looked at it. Today is March 5th, his birthday.
The corners of Chu Xuan's mouth gradually turned up, and he laughed. He turned to Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei and said, "Since we just called it a day, your expressions have been wrong. I always feel a little strange."
Liu Xiaoli showed her face and said: "Sissi told us."
Liu Yifei pursed her lips and winked her right eye at Chu Xuan playfully.
These days, she and Chu Xuan were immersed in filming. If it weren't for the reminder on her mobile phone, she wouldn't have had time to prepare for Chu Xuan's birthday.
She told her mother about this three days ago, and then told Sister Hua. She also quietly told the teachers on the "Hope" crew in the past few days, just as "Zhu Xian" was about to change scenes again.
So, under her "conspiracy", the scene at this moment appeared.
The purpose is to let Chu Xuan have a happy birthday.
"Don't blame us for hiding it. Sissi didn't let us tell us. She said she wanted to give you a little surprise. This girlfriend deserves it." Chen Kaige followed him into the box and joked.
Zhang Jizhong, Tang Jili, Wen Muye and other people who followed also looked at Chu Xuan with smiles.
Chu Xuan turned his head to look at Liu Yifei, who blinked and looked at him, their eyes full of unspoken love.
Chu Xuan tightly held the hand held by Liu Yifei to express his gratitude.
Then he let go of his hand and greeted the people in the box.
"Sister, when did you come?" He hugged Wang Jinhua.
"Flight in the morning, arrived at noon, happy birthday." Wang Jinhua said warmly.
"There's no need to come all the way to celebrate my birthday," he said sincerely.
"Sister likes it." Wang Jinhua said domineeringly.
Chu Xuan couldn't help laughing and greeted everyone present one by one.
During this period, he and Liu Yifei took on roles every day, and were in the world of science fiction and human cloning every day. There were only two actors in the entire micro-movie, and they were always living between the hotel and the studio.
, except for sleeping normally at night, there is almost no time for rest.
This has always been the case these days.
"Hope" is the hard work of him and Liu Yifei who have high and far-reaching expectations. Naturally, they have a more concentrated attitude than before when filming, and they are also immersed in it deeper and deeper.
Suddenly returning from the world of science fiction to the real world, from the suspenseful and mysterious atmosphere to the festive and joyful atmosphere, he felt a little like he was in another world.
After saying hello, everyone sat down.
Wang Jinhua called the waiter to serve the food. It was obviously Wang Jinhua's treat today.
"I wasn't mentally prepared in advance, so I was a little caught off guard." Chu Xuan whispered.
Liu Yifei gave him a flattering look and said softly, pretending to be unhappy: "You didn't tell me about my coming-of-age birthday last year. I was very embarrassed at first, okay?"
After saying that, she said playfully: "Just right, it's even."
Chu Xuan was startled and couldn't tell whether to laugh or cry. He looked at each other and smiled lightly at Liu Yifei.
Their conversation happened to be overheard by Liu Xiaoli and Wang Jinhua sitting next to them.
They looked at each other and couldn't help but feel happy.
You give me a surprise, I give you a surprise, and we embarrass each other? Is it even? These two kids are quite funny.
There are two large tables in the private room, each of which can seat about twenty people.
The teachers from the cast of "Hope", Chen Kaige, Zhang Jizhong, and Tang Jili were at the same table with Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei, Liu Xiaoli and Wang Jinhua; the teachers from the cast of "Zhu Xian" were at the same table with the actors of "Zhu Xian".
At this time, before the food was served, Huang Lei looked at Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei at the other table, and said jokingly: "Producer Chu, Producer Liu, as the producer of "Zhu Xian", should sit over here.
"
As he finished speaking, everyone at the table looked at Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei. Su Chang and Jiang Xin also waved to Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, gesturing for them to come over.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei looked at each other, and just as they were about to speak, someone spoke.
"That won't work." Li Xue shook her head and said, "Producers Chu and Liu are also the producers of our "Hope", so they should sit at this table."
Wu Qingyuan sat next to Huang Lei and said: "The investment in "Zhu Xian" is 55 million, and your "Hope" only costs a few dollars. It is clear at a glance which one is more important. Producers Chu and Producers Liu should come over."
Huang Lei is the producer of "Zhu Xian" and Li Xue is the producer of "Hope".
Wu Qingyuan is the first assistant director of "Zhu Xian". As the first assistant director of "Hope", Kong Sheng saw the situation clearly and said: ""Zhu Xian" has 65 episodes, and one episode is 45 minutes. When spread out,
How much does one minute cost? Our "Hope" has a total of 28 minutes, and the total investment is about 15 million. The price per minute is much more expensive than your "Zhu Xian"."
Zhao Jian sat next to Wu Qingyuan. He said to the table opposite: "Producers Chu and Liu worked hard to coordinate the script in the early stages of preparation for "Zhu Xian". They spent two or three months on it. This is their responsibility."
A labor of love.”
Looking at the words of Zhao Jian, the executive director of "Zhu Xian", Wen Muye, the executive director of "Hope", although he is a new generation director, he is not to be outdone and said: ""Hope" is the graduation work of my senior brothers and sisters. There is no such work.
I can't graduate. In order to film every scene well, the senior brothers and sisters filmed from morning to 12 o'clock at night every day. This is called a hard work."
This sudden confrontation between the two gangs caused by Huang Lei made everyone present watch it with gusto and overjoyed. Huang Lei himself was laughing non-stop.
"We have Teacher Chen Daoming, Teacher Zhong Zhentao, and Teacher Liu Yijun here, a group of powerful teachers!" said Teacher Qi, the art director of "Zhu Xian".
"We have Teacher Chen Kaige, Teacher Zhang Jizhong, Teacher Tang Jili, a group of great directors here!" said Li Lan, the special effects art director of "Hope".
The corners of the mouths of the teachers who were mentioned were slightly raised, as if they were watching a show.
As producers of two crews, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei got together because of Chu Xuan's birthday. This situation is not only interesting, but also rare.
"We have Hu Ge, Yuan Hong, Luo Jin, Peng Yuyan and a bunch of handsome guys here." Teacher Xiang, the screenwriter of "Zhu Xian", also followed suit.
"We have Renquan here, Hu Jun, Tong Dawei and a bunch of handsome guys." Following the collision rules of professional positions, Liu Yi couldn't help but answer.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Jian pointed at him and said: "Liu Yi, you traitor, come here quickly!"
Hearing what Zhao Jian said, the room burst into laughter.
Liu Yi is not only the chief screenwriter of "Zhu Xian", but also the chief screenwriter of "Hope". This status seems a bit embarrassing in this joke.
"We have Dong Xuan, Su Chang, Jiang Xin, Yan Danchen, Zhao Liying and a bunch of beauties here!" Zeng Zhengzong, the special effects team leader of "Zhu Xian", found the weakness of the table opposite.
The actresses whose names were called looked at the table opposite with smiles, while the others were watching the show.
Everyone at the table opposite looked at Wang Bowen. As the special effects team leader of "Hope", according to the unreasonable rules in this play, he should be the one to counter Zeng Zhengzong.
However, when Wang Bowen looked around, it seemed that there were only two beauties, Liu Yifei and Li Congcheng. Their numbers were a bit small and they seemed unable to counterattack.
Unexpectedly, Chu Xuan rescued him at this moment.
"But I only have Producer Liu in my eyes." He said.
The whole audience was stunned for a moment, not expecting that Chu Xuan would say such a sentence, and then another "Oh——" broke out, and the atmosphere was very exciting.
Under everyone's smiling gaze, Liu Yifei looked at Chu Xuan prettyly, and Chu Xuan also looked at her, and the next moment they both smiled.
"Master and Sister Qianqian are also amazing. This dog food comes as soon as you say it." Zhao Liying was convinced.
"They are romance makers." Su Chang said with deep understanding.
"I'm also very romantic." Yuan Hong patted himself and said, "Consider it?"
Jiang Xin glanced at him and said innocently: "You are a good person."
"Pfft..." Yuan Hong pretended to vomit blood and was struck.
Hu Ge, Su Chang and the others were happy.
"Kill!" Zhao Liying gave Jiang Xin a thumbs up.
The waiter came to serve the food, and the fun ended here.
After the waiter poured wine for everyone with the red wine decanter, Chu Xuan picked up the wine glass and stood up.
He looked around at the people at both tables. They were all acquaintances.
"Thank you to all the teachers for supporting me. As a junior, the teachers came to celebrate my birthday. I don't think I deserve it, but I am flattered. I am very grateful."
"Thank you all friends for coming. It is my honor to be able to get together on this little birthday of mine."
"Before I opened the door of this box, I had no idea what was going on. I only realized it after seeing you."
After saying that, Chu Xuan turned his head and looked at Liu Yifei and said, "Thank you to my girlfriend for everything she has prepared for me."
The corners of Liu Yifei's lips curled up, she raised her head and looked at Chu Xuan who was standing up, with a smile blooming like a pear blossom in full bloom.
The people in the audience were fed dog food again. This disregarding and unreserved show of love seemed to let them see what the true love of young people is.
Seeing that someone wanted to stand up like him, Chu Xuan pressed his hands and said hurriedly: "Don't stand, sit down. I'll do it. You can do whatever you want."
Chu Xuan drank the small sip of red wine in the red wine glass in one gulp.
"Happy birthday!"
"Happy birthday……"
Some friends gave blessings, and everyone raised their glasses and drank the wine at the same time.
Chu Xuan sat down, and the people at the two tables became active, chatting and eating.
After a while, what Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli didn't expect was that Liu Yifei picked up the wine glass and stood up, initiating a second round of drinking together.
"Thank you to all the teachers and friends for coming to help Chu Xuan celebrate his birthday. I have called and sent text messages these days, but I didn't expect that all the teachers and friends would come. I also didn't expect that my reputation would be so great...
"
"Flattered, thank you."
Liu Xiaoli and Wang Jinhua looked at Liu Yifei, while Chen Kaige and Zhang Jizhong also looked at Liu Yifei.
I still remember that during Liu Yifei’s birthday last year, Chu Xuan helped her create a luxurious occasion.
Although there were only two tables for Chu Xuan's birthday today, Liu Yifei's behavior was also appreciated by them.
At least it was Chu Xuan's birthday. As Chu Xuan's girlfriend, she could help Chu Xuan hold up the scene when there were many teachers. This not only allowed them to see Liu Yifei's mature side, but also initially discovered that Liu Yifei's superior should be
Some aura.
This is enough to make people praise, and it is enough to make people look at him differently.
Everyone smiled slightly, picked up their wine glasses and drank together with Liu Yifei.
After Liu Yifei sat down, she and Chu Xuan looked at each other, each with a tacit look in their eyes.
We ate some food and chatted for a while.
Wang Jinhua glanced at Liu Xiaoli, and Liu Xiaoli motioned for her to come. Wang Jinhua understood, picked up the glass and stood up, and initiated the third round of drinking together.
"Come, thank you all for celebrating my brother's birthday. It's fate that we get together. I also hope that both parties will have better cooperation in the future."
"Hu Ge, Yuan Hong, Yan Danchen, Peng Yuyan...I heard from Director Zhao about the shooting situation. You are all very good young actors. I will definitely continue to cooperate if there is an opportunity in the future."
Hu Ge, Yuan Hong and others were stunned. They did not expect that Wang Jinhua knew them, nor did they expect that Wang Jinhua would name them one by one. As if they felt the attention of the top people, they felt excited and excited for a moment, and they had a strong interest in Wang Jinhua and the Bright Era.
Huge favor.
Everyone raised their glasses again and drank together.
Drinking together for three rounds means free play.
Chu Xuan is the one celebrating his birthday, so he must be the first person to toast.
Liu Yifei was the first to propose a toast. She picked up the wine glass and wanted to shake it towards Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan raised the corners of his mouth, raised his glass and clinked it with her wine glass.
"Happy birthday." Liu Yifei said cheerfully.
"Thank you my favorite girlfriend." Chu Xuan said warmly.
Liu Yifei felt sweet for a while, took a sip of wine with Chu Xuan.
"Chu Xuan, auntie respects you." Liu Xiaoli held the wine glass.
"Auntie, I respect you." Chu Xuan saluted.
"It's getting better and better." Liu Xiaoli said softly.
"It's necessary." Chu Xuan nodded.
The two of them took a sip from their wine glasses.
"Come on, brother, sister, I wish you a toast." Wang Jinhua toasted.
"Sister, I respect you." Chu Xuan held the cup again.
"I'm 22 years old. I've known you for three years since you were under 19. You used to say you would quit the industry in three years. What do you think now?" Wang Jinhua's eyes were full of interest.
"Retire from the industry after three years?" Chen Kaige was amused, and the others also looked over.
Wang Jinhua nodded and said: "When I met him, he had no goals at all. Now he is slapped in the face."
Chu Xuan put his hand on his forehead, looking slightly embarrassed.
Facts that have happened in the past few years prove that he has indeed been slapped in the face.
Liu Yifei looked happy when she saw his joke.
It was she who changed Chu Xuan, and from then on she and Chu Xuan embarked on a career path that no one had ever traveled before.
Of course, Chu Xuan also changed her and gave her a beautiful blueprint that she had never imagined before.
"It's not enough to quit the industry in three years. With great ability comes great responsibility." Chen Kaige picked up the wine glass.
Chu Xuan also raised his glass and said, "Teacher Kai Ge, I respect you."
"My trip to Yundian was well worth it." Chen Kaige said slowly: "Many times, if we don't encounter the corresponding scene and the corresponding script, our thinking will not spread in this direction. These days, God directed such a scene,
I also learned from it.”
"At the same time, what Director Tang and Producer Zhang Da said about the backwardness of machines also gave us a shot at what is lacking in the industrial base. Only practice can produce true knowledge."
"It's a good thing to understand the shortcomings. It gives us a direction to make up for and make progress."
"Since you and Sissi are determined to take the path of avant-garde films, you must stick to it."
Chen Kaige finally said: "The future belongs to you young people. If you take a different path, if you can achieve success, your sense of glory and accomplishment will be different."
Liu Yifei nodded repeatedly, and at the same time she picked up the wine glass and said, "Teacher Kaige, Chu Xuan and I respect you together."
Chen Kaige smiled gently, raised his glass and took a sip together.
"The most difficult scene has been solved, and the props for levitating objects are ready. The remaining scenes are not difficult to shoot and should be completed soon." Chen Kaige put down his wine glass and said.
"It can be completed in half a month at most." Wen Muye estimated.
Hearing the conversation here, Zhao Jian, who was sitting at the opposite table, turned his head and said, ""Zhu Xian" can be finished this month."
"Have you been filming "Zhu Xian" for half a year?" Kong Sheng turned around and asked.
"No." Zhao Jian shook his head and said, "It was taken from the end of October last year. Counting this month, it has been nearly five months."
"Just in time." Wang Jinhua said: "Both "Zhu Xian" and "Hope" have been completed this month. You can go back and rest for a while, and then free up your hands to do other things. After "The Condor" is over, your schedule will be very full.
