It was probably due to long-term stress and long working hours. The night before the shooting, Ashley was greedy and asked Xia Yu to have a late-night snack with some acquaintances in the house. She wanted to drink some wine and have a good rest.
One night.
Unexpectedly, I forgot to close the window, slept well, and woke up early in the morning with a cold and fever.
People really feel good if they don't get sick for a long time, but they can fall down in just one trip.
There is an old saying that disease comes like a mountain.
It would definitely be impossible for Ashley to play while sick.
I just took the medicine bottle in the hotel and couldn't recover for two or three days.
There was no way, in order not to delay the start-up, and not to delay the time of all personnel - Xia Yu could only take over this heavy burden!
Temporarily took over as director of "The Hunger Games Part 1".
Xia Yu had thought about directing a play by himself, but he never expected that this opportunity would come so suddenly.
When Ashley wasn't sick, she was always nervous and wanted to rest but didn't dare to.
It's better now. When I fully recover, it will be three days less than one week.
Ashley, who was wearing a sling bottle, weak and pale, and still cold all over, leaned on the hospital bed and said unwillingly and helplessly:
"God even thinks that I should be given a few days off to let me have a good rest. The crew and filming are all left to you, Director Xia!"
Can Xia Yu complete the task? Ashley is not worried at all. Teacher Xia Yu is Zhuang He.
Even without this factor, Ashley has nothing to worry about. The filming of "Twilight Series" seemed to be directed by her, but in fact, at least half of it was shot according to Xia Yu's wishes.
How to shoot, I am not satisfied, in fact, in the end it depends on Xia Yu...
Before getting sick, Ashley had thought about letting Xia Yu do the filming to see the effect, but she could never find the right time.
This illness is actually cured. Don't tell me, Ashley's original reluctance has gradually faded away.
On the contrary, they were actually looking forward to it.
He gloated about his misfortune, narrowed his eyes and muttered, "Then let you enjoy it, these stupid actors?"
…
The rules of the Broke Sisters film and television crew were not only passed down by word of mouth to the actors participating in the "Twilight Series" of Mindli Pictures, but also the twenty-six days of reading, which gradually turned them into Xia Yu, Ash
The attitude that Li wanted.
At least that's the case on the surface.
In the past month, the new actors in the group have gradually adapted to the working hours and check-in and gathering.
The most important thing is that the contract has been signed.
What you signed is not eight hours, what you signed is all the working hours - there will be special personnel to record them every day, and they will be doubled. In other words, filming one movie with this crew is equivalent to taking two movies.
As for why the bankrupt sisters are so arrogant? Because they all used actors and teams from Mindli Pictures.
It is equivalent to taking the investment from Mindli Pictures, using the actors and team of Mindley Pictures, double the salary, and finally returning to Mindley Pictures in the form of contract sharing. The actors usually pay 28%, so
It just became a 40-60 ratio - Mindley Pictures not only gained a reputation, but also benefited its actors, so what's wrong with it?
…
North Carolina, November 28, early morning, on the set of "The Hunger Games Part 1".
People on seven or eight buses had already disembarked, mainly the crew, who had arrived at six o'clock in the morning.
As for the cast team, they arrived at 6:45, after all, it was the first day of filming, but as soon as they arrived, they heard a piece of news that I don't know whether it was good or bad - director Ashley was sick.
The director is ill. This is definitely a bombshell for a crew. It is like an exam. How can you take the exam without a pen?
And soon, they received another notification that Xia Yu, the producer of "The Hunger Games Series", would temporarily take on the role of director!
As soon as the news came out, not to mention the new actors and actresses, even the old crew were stunned.
Immediately there was a series of question marks and distrust - because from their perspective, the "Twilight Series" filmed five parts for a total of twenty-one months. Xia Yu had always appeared as an actor and had never seen her.
Director, how could you not doubt it?
Even though they all respect Xia Yu and are impressed by her acting skills, this is due to the actor, not the director!
Especially Xia Yu usually looks like a "good old guy", "aloof but approachable".
Who can imagine what she looks like as a director?
Ashley, the chief director, is not here, so why not bring in the assistant director? There is no shortage of people in our crew, right? Does Xia Yu have to take over? Is this a joke?
When the crew turned around, they discovered that, except for the director Ashley, the entire crew of "The Hunger Games Part 1" didn't even have an assistant director. The assistant director was really just a simple assistant!
Who knows what the cast and crew are thinking? Maybe the vast majority of them despise it?
Anyway, what Meng Dong felt among the "people" was obvious doubts, worries and contempt...
Doubts and worries came from the crew, fearing that Xia Yu would mess up.
"When the time comes and Ashley gets angry, who should we help?"
The contempt is for the actors who are new to the group.
"Oh, an actor wants to break through the constraints of his profession and cross over to become a director? Do you think you are Kate Elizabeth?"
Even Kate Elizabeth, apart from winning the Virgo Award and directing work, what else is worthy of praise?
Kate Elizabeth has been studying directing for four years. It is impossible to have only one movie, but it is really the only one that made her break out of the industry.
There are many people in the industry who praise Kate Elizabeth, but there are also many who are hostile. They all ridicule privately, "Why did you give up directing and come back to acting? Is it really because she loves acting more? Isn't it because the films she directed are too
Rotten?"
…
At 6:55, Xia Yu's car appeared outside the set, and the meeting room on the set was already full of people.
Hearing the sound of the car, most people moved their eyes from the window to the outside. They saw Xia Yu's nanny's car door opening - Xia Yu, wearing a black windbreaker, stepped out of the car. This was probably the case for everyone.
Examine Xia Yu from a perspective.
Different from actor Xia Yu's "low-key" attitude, from a different angle, they found that Xia Yu seemed to be more aggressive?
But when she turned around, when she raised her eyes, her long and indifferent gaze turned over, and everyone felt...that they had seen it wrong?
It was a bit sudden for Xia Yu to work as a part-time director for a week, but she did not adjust the shooting schedule - it would not affect the entire crew's schedule because of her substitute duties, which is something Ashley did not want to see.
All crew members have made arrangements to conduct final inspections, with Meng Dong in charge.
The actor was waiting for her to "teach him a lesson".
Opened the conference room door.
Xia Yu glanced around.
All the actors are already in place. The main actors and she are included in the total of sixteen people.
