Regardless of how the website was developed, Fang Yi's main job was still to be an actor. After he signed up for the crew of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", he was quickly assigned a role.
"I heard that the third master ordered it himself. He said that he was very kind to you, as if he had met you when he was young."
When Sister Zhen sent Fang Yi to the shooting location, she kept reminding him.
I don't mean to lick others, but you have to lick them unbendingly.
The third master is talking about Han Sanping, the head of China Film Group and the actual helmsman of domestic films since the new century. He is famous for promoting new talents. When he was the director of Beijing Studio in 1994, he supported a large number of new style films.
In the new century, he personally took the lead to ensure the debut of new directors including Lu Chuan, Ning Hao and others.
His second greatest contribution is that after serving as the boss of China Film Group Corporation in 2007, he successively invested in films such as "The Promise", "Tou Ming Zhuan", and "Red Cliff", setting off the era of blockbusters in China. From the current point of view, it has given a shot to the film industry.
cardiac.
His theory is very interesting. The main idea is that it is precisely because the country is poor and the threshold for movie viewing is high that blockbusters should be made. Because movies are a luxury consumption for the current audience, then you must watch blockbusters to make enough money.
The less money is spent on a blockbuster movie, the less willing the audience is to watch it, and the less willing they are to spend money to watch it, creating a vicious cycle.
You and I both know this theory now, but before that, it was actually quite counter-intuitive.
Fang Yi jumped in the queue halfway, so of course his role couldn't be a good one. It would be good if he didn't get cut off by then.
When I got the script, there were only a few lines about him.
"Boss, Zhang Lan is an influential person."
"The more this happens, the more we must kill him."
"understood."
"..."
There was a car from the Republic of China parked at the shooting location.
However, with just these few words, after he saw Chen Daoming and Jiang Wen, he immediately understood that it was a conversation between Chen and Jiang and had nothing to do with him.
So what do I play?
Playing gasoline?
Chen and Jiang are both seniors of Yang Opera. Chen is the second batch of students after the resumption of the college entrance examination. He is in the training class. Strictly speaking, he should not be an orthodox Yang Opera student. Jiang Wen is an 80-level student, but he was not originally
If I want to take the exam at Yangzhou Opera, I have to take the exam at Peking University.
Can you pass the exam?
Fortunately, I didn't pass the exam.
The two have become members of the Yangtze River Opera Hall of Fame. They are currently wearing Kuomintang military uniforms and look heroic. They are talking, and Fang Yi takes the initiative to say hello:
"Teacher Chen, Teacher Jiang. My name is Fang Yi, and I am... uh," I had difficulty explaining my identity, so I said, "I am a student."
Jiang Wen smacked his lips and stretched out his hand quite widely, "Don't call them these, it's boring. Call me Senior Brother..."
He and Chen Daoming looked at each other and laughed, "You are the handsome guy of our Central Opera, ah! Now I have no job, so I have to rely on you to support me. You are the only one who has some talent, can see things through, and can direct well! Capitalist,
It’s just a dog! It’s so happy, it’s so happy.”
The voice of the last sentence was amplified.
"Excellent."
Jiang Wen asked Chen Daoming to speak, "Senior Brother Chen, you also want to give me some advice from my senior brother, okay?"
Chen Daoming was much more serious, "I've seen your line performance. It's good. It's rare for young people to have such skills."
"Senior Brother Chen, thank you for the award."
After greeting the two, just before Fang Yi was about to leave, Jiang Wen stared at his back and said, "Wait a minute."
Fang Yi turned around.
They were both taken aback.
Jiang Wen said, "You are too handsome. I haven't even noticed it just by hearing people say it."
Chen Daoming nodded slightly.
"What are you looking for from me?"
"Nothing, just taking a look."
Jiang Wen raised his chin and looked at Fang Yi carefully for a few seconds before saying, "Sorry to bother you, you go do something first."
Han Sanping was a short, fat, middle-aged man with an unattractive appearance. He said a few words to him and asked him to change into his costume.
It was also the military uniform of the Kuomintang. After dressing up a little, I went to the set.
Everyone couldn't help but look at him. In the film "Our Group", Fang Yi was deliberately darkened, but now his original fair appearance was revealed, making him look like a student who had just put on a layer of military skin.
It is incompatible with the chilling atmosphere to be expressed.
This script tells the story of spy chief Mao Renfeng (Jiang Wen) asking Yan Jinwen (Chen Daoming) to assassinate democrats, while Fang Yi seems to be an ordinary private nearby.
He had no lines, only actions. When Yan Jinwen got into Mao Renfeng's carriage, he opened the door for him and then saluted.
We played it like this first. Because he was so good-looking, the two senior brothers tilted their heads slightly and glanced at him in the car. "Bang!" The car door closed and they talked about the assassination.
Drama master Jiang Wen suggested, "Mr. Han, I want to add a scene."
The crowd roared with laughter.
Han Sanping was already very familiar with Jiang Wen's habits, "Jiang Wen, I don't necessarily want you to join me. Let me tell you clearly, I have edited all of Zhou Xingxing's films. It's not that your acting is not good, it's just that it's not good enough."
Jiang Wen patted Fang Yi on the shoulder, "I didn't add it for me, it was added for him, and it was reasonable and well-founded. I only thought of it after seeing him. I have to say that some actors are the director's muses.
You won’t know how to shoot like this until you see it.”
Han Sanping was amused and became interested, "Jiang Wen, tell me."
"——We are in this situation now. The Kuomintang is about to retreat to the treasure island. It wants to make a final counterattack and assassinate the democrats. However, in fact, they can still trick young people into believing in them and dying for them. I think it is easy
Yi is very good at portraying this kind of image. You have to be handsome enough to make the audience sigh outside the screen. Unfortunately, he hates the Kuomintang even more. I say again, you have to be handsome enough to make the audience realize this immediately.
"
"That's a good idea, let's try it first."
Jiang Wen then raised his eyebrows at Fang Yi.
It's still the same scene, but this time a close-up of Fang Yi is added. A youthful and unsuspecting young man sends his respected superiors into the car, and the superiors are talking about the assassination. At the moment when the door closes.
, the camera captured Fang Yi's figure in the sun and his clear eyes from inside the car.
To be honest, when it comes to the lines next, Jiang Wen was okay, but Chen Daoming was a little sad and subconsciously looked at the car window several times.
"Click!"
Han Sanping asked the two of them to go up and look at the monitor. After thinking for a while, he said, "Fang Yi, you come too."
After the three people observed it, Jiang Wen was very satisfied, "This is the effect."
Chen Daoming also felt that his characters were enriched. Such small details are very good, and they should not be cut out.
Fang Yi suddenly said, "It's still too obscure. The audience may not understand what it means."
Jiang Wen said blankly, "If you don't understand, you don't care what he does. It's his business if he doesn't understand."
Fang Yi stopped talking.
Han Sanping slapped his head, "Our film is organized to be shown to government agencies, but also to ordinary audiences outside the system. The purpose is to attract more people to the cinema to watch the main theme film, not to attract elites."
He said, "Fang Yi, what do you think? Don't worry, we are all directors, we are only talking about directors now."
"I think we can get the assassination order from Yan Jinwen. After getting out of the car, he patted the private on the shoulder again thoughtfully, but the private still smiled innocently without knowing why. Yan Jinwen walked farther and farther, and the car carrying Mao Renfeng also drove away.
He left, but the private remained where he was. There was a response, so you should understand the meaning."
Jiang Wen shook his head, "You are too white-handed and too deliberate. You can even read it. It's superfluous."
But Han Sanping made the decision, "Just do what Fang Yi said. Since you have this idea, explain it clearly to the audience."
Jiang Wen spread his hands and said, "Yes, my junior will win first."
Chen Daoming looked at them with a smile.
After reshooting new scenes, Fang Yi changed costumes and ended his guest appearance today. Because of this ingenuity and the reputation of the two senior brothers, there is a high probability that it will not be cut.
At the very least, there should be a "Private B" at the end of the movie.
When Jiang Wen left, he asked him to stop again, "Fang Yi?"
When he turned back, Jiang Wen looked him up and down and said, "You are very interesting. How about we cooperate later?"
