Chapter 729: Shooting: Battle on the Top of the Forbidden City
More than a week has passed in the blink of an eye, because the day after tomorrow is a new week, and it’s time to hand in the DV photography video assignment.
As the head teacher and professional course teacher, Ye Jiping was very aware of the ideological consciousness of the students in his class, so that night, he came to the boys' dormitory.
I went to three dormitories in a row, but the result was the same. None of the short videos due the day after tomorrow were ready.
Although each of them spoke very nicely and kept making excuses, how could Ye Jiping, who also came from his student days, not know what these people really thought.
Disappointed, Ye Jiping came to dormitory 6614. Here, he still had a glimmer of hope, because the first place in his class was in this dormitory.
Although being the first in their class is also a thorn in the side, in terms of study, he is really better than others, and the photos he took last semester are much higher than those of other students.
Therefore, he still has great expectations for Zhou Chen, who is ranked first.
But when he arrived at dormitory 6614, he looked around and saw that there were only three people there, and Zhou Chen was not there.
"Where's Zhou Chen?"
Jiang Yunming said sourly: "Not in the dormitory."
Ye Jiping asked: "Where have you gone?"
"Where else can I go? I went out to live with my girlfriend. They rented a house outside and just stayed in the dormitory for one night this semester."
"Which girlfriend?"
When Jiang Yunming and the others heard this, they immediately became energetic and asked with gossipy faces: "Teacher Ye, do you also know about Zhou Chen having two girlfriends at the same time?"
Ye Jiping rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not stupid. I pay attention to all the students in the class. How could I not know about this kind of thing?"
Jiang Yunming asked curiously: "Mr. Ye, since you know, why don't you take care of it? It was him who took away my beloved Xue'er with a knife, making me lonely and sad for a long time, and I have not fully recovered yet.
.”
Ye Jiping's expression was very strange: "Why should I care? I'm just your class teacher, not a parent. Falling in love is not prohibited in the university. Although Zhou Chen has two boats, which is a bit unethical, I am not qualified to accuse him.
What else? What's more, if someone can do it to that level, it shows that they are capable."
In fact, the last sentence should not have been uttered by his class teacher, but it was just his first time teaching students, and he was not much older. He treated his classmates more like friends and respected them very much.
The relationship is also very close, so I just said it bluntly.
Jiang Yunming seemed to have been hit hard. Look, what are you talking about? He doesn't have two girlfriends, so he just has no ability?
"Did you take the video?"
As soon as Ye Jiping said this, Jiang Yunming and the other two people immediately turned around and talked about other things, except the short video.
Ye Jiping sighed. He didn't have high expectations in the first place, but now he was still disappointed, so he took out the homework videos of the electrophotographic classes in previous years that he had prepared and asked Jiang Yunming and the others to learn from them.
After coming out of 6614, Ye Jiping walked into 6616, but he no longer had any expectations at this time.
Zhou Chen and Lin Luoxue held hands and took a walk in the community.
They had just eaten at home, and now it was time for a walk after dinner. Because tomorrow is the weekend, Zhou Chen stayed with Lin Luoxue tonight.
"Is your Propaganda Department just busy? I see you've been so busy lately."
Lin Luoxue has spent a lot of time in the Propaganda Department recently, so Zhou Chen asked this question.
Lin Luoxue sighed helplessly: "The original deputy minister resigned from his position because he was promoted to senior year. To save trouble, this guy Xiao Haiyang made three deputy ministers at once. I, Yu Hao and Pan
Zhen; but Yu Hao and Pan Zhen always fight back and forth, and Xiao Haiyang doesn't ask much about things, so a lot of things fall on me."
"Then do you feel tired? If you feel tired, we don't need to do it."
"No, sometimes I feel a little tired, but I can also gain a lot. This is an opportunity for me to experience, and it will also help me in my future work."
Zhou Chen doesn't object. Although the school's clubs are not valuable, they cannot be led by just any student. The deputy director of the Propaganda Department may not even have seniority in the eyes of social workers, but it can still play a role in training people.
.
"As long as you feel happy and gain something, that's fine."
After walking around the community, Lin Luoxue suddenly remembered her homework.
"Have you finished filming the five-minute short video for the DV class? What did you film?"
"Ah? This is something."
Zhou Chen was stunned. He had really forgotten about this matter. It wasn't like he had forgotten it. The main reason was that he didn't take it to heart at all and no one urged him to do it, so he didn't even think of taking a video.
"I haven't taken the photo yet, what about you?"
Lin Luoxue said in a depressed tone: "I didn't shoot anymore, mainly because I didn't have a clue. Teacher Ye doesn't allow blind shooting. I have to shoot some plot and find actors, which is a bit troublesome."
If you shoot casually, let alone five minutes, even if it is fifty minutes or five hundred minutes, there will be no problem.
But Ye Jiping's homework has prerequisites. You can't shoot randomly. There must be a certain plot. If you just shoot a cat or a dog casually, you won't get a point.
This is one of the reasons why no one in the class has taken good photos so far.
Zhou Chen said: "It's nothing, just write a plot and film it, it's not a big deal."
After finishing speaking, he remembered that in the TV series, there seemed to be a plot about the first filming, and it lasted for several episodes.
Among them, Ren Yifan seems to have become the video protagonist of the electrophotography class, and he runs through several plots by himself.
Seeing that Zhou Chen was so confident, Lin Luoxue said happily: "Then you have to help me write a plot."
"No problem, whatever you want, love, action, reasoning, solving crimes, costumes... you name it, I can get it for you."
As a person who has watched TV for more than two or three hundred years, it is not easy to write a short script.
"I think……"
Lin Luoxue was about to answer when suddenly her cell phone rang.
"I'll take a call. It's Xiao Haiyang."
"Hey, Xiao Haiyang..."
Two minutes later, Lin Luoxue hung up the phone.
"You also heard that Xiao Haiyang insists on letting us go filming together tomorrow. After knowing that I am not in the dormitory, he still wants to call Li Shuci. If nothing else happens, the three people in our dormitory will agree. What do you think?
?”
Zhou Chen shrugged and said, "I don't care. Anyway, I will be with my little Luoxue for two days on the weekend. I will go wherever you go."
"Hum, you can say nice things."
Lin Luoxue hummed, but she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
Although Zhou Chen often spends time with He Feifei, between her and He Feifei, he undoubtedly spends more time with her. On weekends, unless she has something to do, he basically stays with her, so on this point
She is very satisfied.
"Then we agree, I will send a message to Xiao Haiyang later, and we will start writing the script after we get back."
"Speaking of scripts, I remembered the scripts Zhong Bai showed us these days. Don't you know that her first script really made the three of us in the dormitory vomit after reading it? And that's not all. She has never
The first version of the script has been revised to more than 30 versions, but if we hadn't resisted, we would still have been criticized."
Zhou Chen was very curious: "Is it really that exaggerated?"
"Really, I'm not exaggerating. Zhong Bai's script is really exaggerated. Have you ever seen a female version of romance before? Let me put it this way, her script is several times more bloody than romance, especially
Some of the dialogue, oh my god, even a cartoon wouldn’t dare to do that.”
Thinking of Zhong Bai's script, Lin Luoxue instantly turned into a chatterbox, like a little bee, dancing and complaining next to Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen looked at Lin Luoxue's narration in a funny way. From Lin Luoxue's narration, he also heard some contents. Not to mention, it was really, really, really bloody.
It seems that the plot filmed in the TV series must have been revised countless times before it was finally eye-catching. Well, it seems that it is still not eye-catching.
If we follow Zhong Bai's script and act it out exactly as it is, when it is played, the whole class will probably stage a vomiting convention together.
Soon after returning home, Lin Luoxue and Zhou Chen both received messages from Xiao Haiyang, saying that they had been mobilized and would gather before one o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
"Leave at one o'clock tomorrow, let's write the script now?" Lin Luoxue put down her phone and said to Zhou Chen.
But Zhou Chen pulled her into his arms, leaned against her ear, and made a seductive sound.
"I already have the script. I think we can go into the room and have a good discussion about the plot. What do you think?"
"I don't think it's very good. Don't move. Where do you put your hands?"
"I think it's better not to let you think about it. I think it's okay if I think about it."
"Zhou Chen, you hate it, I still have to write a script."
"Come into the room and I will teach you how to write step by step..."
…………
The next day, when Zhou Chen and Lin Luoxue arrived at the school gate, everyone else had already arrived.
Xiao Haiyang saw Zhou Chen and Lin Luoxue driving over, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "I forgot to tell you last night, there are many of us, and two cars are not enough, so I chartered a bus, you still
Stop driving."
This time, in addition to the four people in their dormitory and the four in the girls' dormitory, there were also Zhou Chen, Ren Yifan, and Bi Shisan's little follower, the glasses girl.
The number of people has reached eleven. There is really not enough space in two cars, and no one wants to squeeze in, so Xiao Haiyang ordered a bus.
Of course Zhou Chen wouldn't have any problem with not driving by himself. They didn't get carsick anyway, so it would be better to have a free driver.
"No problem, you guys wait here, I'll park the car first."
Zhou Chen drove away, while Lin Luoxue was entangled by Xu Lianqiao.
"Woman, is this Zhou Chen really so good that you're already living with him?"
It was just over two weeks since school started. In the first week, Lin Luoxue didn't go out with Zhou Chen because she was busy with work. Although Xu Lianqiao knew they were in a relationship, she didn't think anything of it.
But Lin Luoxue didn't go back last night and heard a lot of gossip from Zhong Bai, so she became very interested in Zhou Chen and Lin Luoxue's affairs.
Can a boy have two girlfriends at the same time? Moreover, both girlfriends are very beautiful, and more importantly, they did not capsize.
As the president of the school drama club, even their drama club has never filmed such a ridiculous drama.
Lin Luoxue said calmly: "He is the man I recognize, what do you think?"
Xu Lianqiao looked at Lin Luoxue seriously, and suddenly took a deep breath and smelled it.
"Your answer really surprised me, but I still admire you for being able to make your own choice regardless of the world's eyes. I'm not as good as you in this regard."
Lin Luoxue has a very special sense of her new roommate. She once doubted whether Xu Lianqiao was a lesbian. Although it turned out that she was overthinking it, Xu Lianqiao's independent and independent personality still made her feel that she had a problem with her.
Different.
But she didn't hate a maverick girl like Xu Lianqiao. Instead, she felt inexplicably that Xu Lianqiao had a very special aura.
"On the first day of school, you took the initiative to say that you were Xiao Haiyang's girlfriend in front of so many people. I also admire you."
"Really? That should be nothing."
Xu Lianqiao doesn't think her behavior is so special. She just does what she thinks. Why should she care about other people's opinions?
When Zhou Chen returned to the school gate, the bus had already arrived and everyone had already boarded. As soon as Zhou Chen got on the bus, the bus officially set off.
After driving for a few minutes, Zhou Chen, who was talking to Lin Luoxue, suddenly remembered that in the TV plot, it seemed that the shooting was in the wrong place this time, so he quickly looked at Xiao Haiyang.
"Xiao Haiyang, you haven't said where our destination is this time?"
Lu Qiaochuan said: "Xiao Haiyang told us last night that it is a villa owned by his uncle."
"Where is the specific location?"
Xiao Haiyang replied: "No. 46, West Road, Dongcheng District."
Zhou Chen didn't need to say anything now. Lu Qiaochuan suddenly stood up from his seat: "Where?"
Xiao Haiyang answered again: "No. 46, West Road, Dongcheng District."
"oops."
Lu Qiaochuan sighed heavily, and then said with a speechless face: "What you told me last night was East Road, Xicheng District."
At this moment, everyone in the car was dumbfounded, and the most excited person was Xiao Haiyang.
"No way?"
Bi Shisan said with certainty: "Yes, you are talking about East Road, Xicheng District."
Ren Yifan shouted: "Who the hell can make such a mistake?"
Xiao Haiyang covered his face, he was really too embarrassed to see anyone.
Zhou Chen, on the other hand, calmed down and said, "It's okay. Fortunately, I asked now. It would be embarrassing if I found out that I went to the wrong place when I arrived at my destination. Let the driver change the direction."
With Zhou Chen's reminder, the mistake of taking the wrong road finally didn't happen. The bus changed direction and headed towards Uncle Xiao Haiyang's villa.
Zhou Chen didn't know what the villa in Dongcheng District was like, but they were acquaintances with Uncle Xiao Haiyang's villa. They would definitely get better arrangements if they went there, and it should be much more convenient for shooting.
About an hour later, the bus finally arrived at its destination, Uncle Xiao Haiyang's private villa, Gumei Villa.
Xiao Haiyang's uncle should be a very wealthy businessman. As soon as the people arrived, he took the initiative to greet them and told Xiao Haiyang that a place to stay had been arranged for them.
It is indeed a private villa, and the living conditions are not worse than those of star hotels. Two people share a dormitory, but Zhou Chen dislikes sharing a dormitory with Ren Yifan and chooses to live with Lin Luoxue. Ren Yifan can only live with Lu Qiaochuan.
Xiao Haiyang had a room of his own, the four girls lived separately, and Bi Shisan and Yu Hao lived together.
Put the ceremony away and everyone gathers together again.
Lu Qiaochuan took the initiative and said, "Has everyone's scripts been written? Can we start filming now?"
Zhong Bai was the first to shout happily: "I'll shoot first, I'll shoot first."
"Okay, I'll let you shoot first. I've already written the script. Haiyang, I think you should write your script yourself."
Xiao Haiyang didn't want to take the trouble, but he thought about it seriously and nodded: "Okay, then I'll take what I want to take."
Lu Qiaochuan asked other people that it was their first time filming. In fact, everyone was a little eager to try it out, and they had all written their own scripts.
Even though Lin Luoxue kept saying that she wanted Zhou Chen to write it for him, in fact, she also wrote the script herself this morning.
"Zhou Chen, what about you, what script did you write?"
"Whoosh!"
Everyone's eyes turned to Zhou Chen. After all, he was first in the class and first in the professional courses, so everyone was curious about what kind of script Zhou Chen would write.
Zhou Chen said: "The script is in my mind. I will make changes while filming, no problem."
"Then there has to be a name and a type, right?" Lu Qiaochuan asked again.
"Martial arts, decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City!"
Zhou Chen spelled out the script he wanted to film word for word.
That's right, it's the famous show "The Battle at the Forbidden City" in the martial arts world, but in this parallel world, there is no such martial arts drama.
"I need a few actors for this script. Luo Xue and I, and you, Ren Yifan. You are also the male lead, and you also have an important role. Let me think about it."
Zhou Chen decided to play Ximen Chuixue himself, Lin Luoxue played Ximen Chuixue’s wife Sun Xiuqing, and Ren Yifan played the role of war reporter Lu Xiaofeng.
But there is another protagonist, Ye Gucheng, who has not been decided yet.
His eyes fell on Lu Qiaochuan and Bi Shisan, and he shook his head decisively. If these two people played Ye Gucheng, it would be too miserable to watch.
Xiao Haiyang, this idiot is not appropriate either.
Okay, after excluding it like this, only Yu Hao is left. Damn it.
Zhou Chen felt that he had made a mistake and had to be taller than the short ones. Yu Hao became more serious, he should force it, maybe, maybe, it would work...
Even if it doesn't work, you still have to bite the bullet and shoot.
In the next day and a half, everyone started shooting at Uncle Xiao Haiyang's villa.
As the saying goes, if there are people who are easy to do things, Xiao Haiyang can go to his uncle to ask for whatever they need. Basically, he will get whatever he can, saving them a lot of energy and time.
Anyway, in Zhou Chen's opinion, the shooting scene was a mess and unsightly, but even so, everyone was in high spirits and happily shooting.
Because of the plot and time requirements, Zhou Chen's decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City was filmed at the end, and it took a long time to complete the filming.
In fact, Ren Yifan was okay. He was already more agile and could barely perform at one-tenth of Lu Xiaofeng's level, but Yu Hao, Ye Gucheng, was really eye-catching.
Can you imagine that the Sword Fairy Ye Gucheng is a sissy? Can you imagine that the Heavenly Flying Fairy became a Heavenly Flying Cannon?
As for Ximen Chuixue, Zhou Chen believes that he has performed the essence of his performance and is definitely the best actor in this film. If it can be released, he will definitely win an Oscar.
After the filming ended in the evening, a few people got together and started editing, including dubbing, subtitles, sound effects, etc., and they stayed up until the early hours of the morning.
On Monday morning, Zhou Chen and others took the bus back to school, and then Zhou Chen and Lu Qiaochuan returned to the dormitory to continue editing.
It wasn't until the afternoon that I handed the homework to Ye Jiping.
In the first video class after the homework was handed in, Ye Jiping was going to play all the students' videos one by one and then make comments.
Before preparing to play the video, Yu Hao raised his hand and shouted loudly: "Teacher Ye, can you play our video first?"
Of course Ye Jiping would not refuse, and asked with a smile: "Okay, what is the name of your video?"
Yu Hao was about to answer, but suddenly realized that he didn't know, so he turned to Lu Qiaochuan and asked: "What is the name of our work?"
Lu Qiaochuan raised his hand and said: "Nine reincarnations."
"Nine reincarnations?"
Ye Jiping asked with a confused look: "A ghost movie?"
Ren Yifan, who was sitting at the back, shouted first: "It's scarier than a ghost movie."
Ye Jiping knew Ren Yifan and knew that he was not a student in his class, so he asked: "Hey, classmate, are you here to join the class?"
Ren Yifan: "I'm here to attend the premiere. I'm the male lead in this film."
Ye Jiping smiled, didn't pay much attention, and was about to play the work, but then Lu Qiaochuan spoke again.
"Teacher Ye, this video is actually a work shot by several of us together. It is connected together because it tells a complete story, with ups and downs, and heart-stirring moments all in it."
Ye Jiping was greatly surprised when he heard this: "Okay, I'll start shooting the feature film as soon as I come up."
Lu Qiaochuan: "Yes, the first story is Zhong Bai's. No, the beginning of the story should be Zhong Bai's work."
Ye Jiping happily started playing, and the whole class also started staring at the projection, very curious.
From the moment the video was played, the expressions of Ye Jiping and other students in the class kept changing, including curiosity, shock, bewilderment, astonishment, fright, trembling...
The dozens of minutes of video were quickly played to the end. The final part was Zhou Chen's script, the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City.
Sword God Ximen Chuixue, Sword Immortal Ye Gucheng, Four Eyebrows Lu Xiaofeng, Emei Four Beauties Sun Xiuqing...
August 15th, the top of the Forbidden City, the Sword God and the Sword Immortal, the peak showdown, intrigues, struggles for imperial power, love and hatred...
The giant sword was forged by overseas cold-iron elites. It has blown hair and broken hair. The blade is three feet three feet and the net weight is six kilograms and four taels. It is a long sword with a strange and ancient black sheath.
Flying immortals from the sky, sharp swordsmanship, leaving no escape route...
Although it is only a short video of a few minutes, it is quite interesting after editing.
In particular, war correspondent Lu Xiaofeng's introduction to the two sword gods is the finishing touch, enlivening the short film and making people feel the grace of these two top swordsmen.
But Zhou Chen still found it irritating. He had a good decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City and filmed it like this. The sword god is still a god, the sword fairy... It's so shameful.
