"Yo, thank you for remembering my birthday, I thought you wouldn't contact me again."
Li Tang said one of yours at a time, holding a gun and a stick in his speech. He looked puzzled with his cell phone.
"What do you mean?"
February 27th is the 25th birthday of my ex-girlfriend. This is her first birthday after the breakup. In addition, the relationship between them is somewhat unrelated, so we should call and say hello to each other, regardless of whether it is reasonable.
I didn't expect to be choked. I didn't contact each other for half a year after breaking up last year. I only separated for a few days this time.
"You ask me, I want to ask you, what do you mean?"
"I kindly wish you a happy birthday. You are so sarcastic. Where did I offend you?"
"Blame me? Yes, you are almost a big star. Big stars have a circle of big stars, so you have to pay attention to it..."
"Wait a minute, what big star... Oh, have you heard of it?"
Li Tang couldn't help laughing and said sour words for a long time. It turned out that it was because of this.
"You are still laughing. You don't even inform me of such a big news."
"What are you notifying? Showing you up?"
"Share, is it because of sharing or not? Can I still be with you?" My ex-girlfriend raised the volume on the phone.
You just can't stand me better than you!
Li Tang complained secretly in his heart, but couldn't help laughing out loud.
He knew the other person so well, and his ex-girlfriend has always been very strong. If he heard that he became the male protagonist of the Shanghai Film Studio tribute film, he would definitely go crazy. As expected, jealousy is beyond recognition.
"Laugh, laugh so hard!"
Li Tang originally wanted to tease her, but someone called her on the set and hurriedly said, "Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I'm filming."
After that, I added another sentence: "Oh, by the way, I'll give you a suggestion. Don't always learn from other people's Beijing movies. It sounds awkward, but I always feel like it's a big fuss!"
After saying that, he closed the cover of the phone with a "splash".
Xiaopin, don't give her any chance to fight back.
The filming location of "Shanghai Chronicles" is in the suburbs of the film and television park. It is mainly composed of Nanjing Road, Shikumen Lilan Group, Waibaidu Bridge, Male Villa, wharf, church, square, etc. It fully restores the old age of the 1920s and 1930s.
The architectural style of Shanghai is not restored 1:1, but is reduced in an appropriate proportion. The overall look is a bit cramped and not grand enough.
It has been eleven days since the film started on the 16th. In the early stage, it mainly filmed some street scenes and group scenes, such as student parades, snatching supplies, and the PLA entering the city.
The shooting of such scenes often requires mobilizing the various departments of the crew to cooperate together to allow the entire crew to be fully adjusted, commonly known as "grinding the lens".
There is no concept of professional extras these days. Most of the extras are the villagers around them. There are also some important scenes such as the Liberation Army entering the city, using real-life troops.
There are many scenes of Li Tang in these group dramas. These days, he has been involved in the extras and has discovered many interesting things. There are one or two lines in the extras, or the supporting actors with frontal shots, they are actually all
Some familiar faces have often appeared in classic movies produced by Shanghai Film Studios in the past few decades. They are not the protagonists, and they often appear as supporting roles or villains in movies.
They are all from the Shanghai Film Studios actor troupe, and some of them have even retired. For them, acting is just a job, regardless of the size of the role, and they work diligently. And there are subsidies for filming every day, each of them.
I never tire of enjoying it.
Today, the filming of Li Tang and Yuan Quan's first rivalry was in a bar. The plot is that Yuan Quan plays Li Huirong and rescues Guo Shaobai, played by Li Tang, from prison. After the disaster, Li Huirong comforts Guo Shaobai.
The bar set has been completed, photography and lighting are busy focusing and debugging the lights, and the assistant director is busy talking to the waiter standing at the counter.
There is an antique phonograph on the counter, which is a big speaker with a box. It does not require plug-in and can work by shaking it. It is purely manual mechanical function, and it is said that it can really play vinyl records.
This phonograph, including antique furniture, decorations and other props in the bar, is the foundation accumulated by the Shanghai Film Studio since its inception in the 1920s.
In the end, it is because of its profound background. For example, the clothing department in the factory is almost catching up with a small clothing factory. This time, the clothing of the main characters is tailor-made according to the characteristics of the era.
"Xiao Li, is that no problem?"
Director Peng Xiaolian came to the scene.
"Director, no problem."
After these days of shooting, Li Tang has seen how resolute and decisive this kind-hearted female director is on the set. Just think about it, if he didn't have such courage, he wouldn't be able to control such a huge crew.
Peng Xiaolian nodded. After reading the script and filming the previous group scenes, she was basically relieved of Li Tang.
"Where is Yuan Quan, are you okay?"
"Okay, director, I'm here."
Yuan Quan, who had just finished painting his makeup and changed his clothes, hurried in.
Peng Xiaolian looked at Yuan Quan's clothing and makeup, and nodded after confirming that there was no problem, "Okay, you guys prepare first, and the shooting will start later."
Yuan Quan walked up to Li Tang tremblingly, glanced at Director Peng who was discussing the camera with the photographer, and whispered: "Brother Li, let's talk about the words again."
"I've been right several times in the morning, and I don't think there is any problem."
Li Tang turned his head and looked at her and said, "Why are you so nervous? You are not in good condition. You will be able to start shooting later. You have to relax and relax."
Yuan Quan said with a sad face: "I know, but I just can't control it."
Li Tang knew that this was a common problem for newcomers. When he faced the camera for the first time, he could not help but feel nervous. This was how he came here back then.
He comforted, "No problem. When you talked to me in the morning, you were in very good condition, and I think you have no problem at all."
Yuan Quan didn't say anything, just lowered her head and looked at the director and the camera from time to time.
"Hey, you drink some of this." Li Tang pointed to the wine glass placed on the table.
"What, wine?"
"Cola, the car ran away."
The props were served, and the annoying Coke pretended to be a foreign wine.
"Can you drink it? This is a prop."
"Of course I can drink it."
Li Tang picked up the cup and dries it, licked his lips, and smiled and said, "It's very sweet. The sweetness can make people feel happy and relaxed. Try it."
Yuan Quan was not sure if Li Tang was talking nonsense. Her nervousness made her feel a little overwhelmed. She picked up the cup and took a sip. The cool-drying Coke tasted very sweet, but it felt better after drinking it. She
I couldn't help but take another sip, and then I drank it all.
"Brother Wang, pour a little more." Li Tang turned around and shouted to the waiter standing at the counter.
That's right, the waiter who acted as the background board was a temporary guest appearance by the crew's prop assistant.
Brother Wang took out a large bottle of Coke from under the counter, walked over and poured half a cup, muttering, "Drink less, this is a prop."
"Fill, fill up, don't be so stingy."
Li Tang knocked on the table with his finger and said, "Find a clean wine bottle, pour half of it before taking it."
"What are you doing? This is the bottle of Coke that lets go of the car."
"Tsk, don't worry, you can use it when shooting later."
"Uh... OK."
Li Tang picked up a full cup of Coke and signaled to Yuan Quan, saying, "How is it? Do you feel better?"
"I need to drink more."
Yuan Quan didn't avoid it now. He picked up the cup and took another big sip. He drank a little anxiously and quickly patted his chest.
Li Tang's eyes stayed at the foot of the shooting as she moved.
Good figure and looks pretty good.
In order to hide his impolite eyes, the guy pretended to be caring and said, "Aren't you cold?"
Yuan Quan was wearing a costume - a small black suit, paired with a light-colored shirt, and a scarf around her neck.
It was steep in spring, and Li Tang was wearing a suit shirt inside and a down sweater wrapped around him.
Yuan Quan didn't notice it, looked down at his clothes, and smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm wearing a sweater inside."
"Is that right? I can't tell at all."
Li Tang then looked at her boldly again, and suddenly said, "Hey, a person as beautiful as you must be the school beauties of your Central Academy of Drama, right?"
"No, it's not even the class flower." Yuan Quan said with a stuttering expression and shook his head.
"I don't believe it."
"Really, I didn't lie to you. Our class is much more beautiful than me."
The guy's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "If you have the chance to introduce me if you have a chance, please."
When Yuan Quan heard this, he felt a little uncomfortable, "No problem, but you may be disappointed, they all have boyfriends."
"Do you have a boyfriend?" the guy asked again.
"Ah? Uh...no."
After he asked so suddenly, Yuan Quan did not react for a moment, and a figure of a person subconsciously appeared in his mind.
"If there is, there is, if there is no, there is nothing. What does it mean to have nothing?"
Faced with Li Tang's repeated questioning, Yuan Quan was shy and shook his head and said, "No...No."
Although the figure in my mind was chasing me very tightly, I didn't seem to feel anything about that person, and I was more concerned about the halo of the actor on the other party.
"Smack!"
At this time, the director's clapping sound interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Prepare to start shooting!"
Yuan Quan quickly sat upright and took a deep breath. At this time, she suddenly realized that she was not nervous at all.
