The weather was very hot, filming was boring, the extras were sweating profusely, and the leading actors were not much better.
Especially the big power, her two crews ran back and forth. At this time, Li Shaohong's version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was also being filmed next door. The crew of "Legend of Sword and Fairy III" borrowed the big power from the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions"
Came here.
Da Mi Mi played Qingwen in "A Dream of Red Mansions" and played the female lead Tang Xuejian in "Legend of Sword and Fairy III".
So during this period of time, the two crews of the show were running back and forth. They just filmed a small night scene yesterday, and without much rest, they went to the crew of "Legend of Sword and Fairy III" to shoot a martial arts scene.
At this moment, Da Mi Mi felt a little tired. Looking at the colorful extras in front of him, he felt a little dizzy. Coupled with the harsh sunlight, Da Mi Mi had a faint sense of black vision.
"Hey, I didn't finish this shot well. Let's take a break and let's do it again." Li Guoli's voice sounded on the intercom.
Zhang Hao is a little strange. Logically speaking, the general crew will be divided into two groups, AB, and those with more members will be divided into group C. The martial arts scenes and some less important literary and drama aspects are all handed over to the director of group B.
According to Zhang Hao's understanding, "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" also has two groups A and B. Li Guoli was supposed to be in charge of group A, and the assistant director was in charge of group B.
But why did we come to Group B today? Even though the scene in Group B today was a martial arts drama starring Lao Hu Da Mi Mi and others.
Zhang Hao was thinking wildly and followed the extras to go back to the shade of the trees to avoid the sun.
Just then, something unexpected happened...
As soon as Da Mi Mi turned around and went to the RV to rest, his vision suddenly went dark, his body suddenly went limp and he was about to fall down. The leading actors such as Lao Hu and Bai Doufu, as well as Liu Shishi, didn't react.
Zhang Hao was just next to him, three or four steps away. When he saw Da Mi Mi fall down, he stepped forward and hugged Da Mi Mi in his arms.
The warm and fragrant soft jade hugged him, but Zhang Hao was not in the mood to understand it. He glanced at Da Mi Mi's face and said hurriedly: "I have heatstroke. Call the crew doctor."
"Ah?" Lao Hu was startled and said quickly: "Help us to the RV first, in the shade to hide from the sun."
"Yes, yes, doctor, where is the doctor?" Liu Shishi also shouted anxiously.
Da Mi Mi's accident attracted the attention of everyone on the set. The executive director quickly informed director Li Guoli through the intercom: "It's not good, director, Da Mi Mi has fainted."
Zhang Hao didn't have time to think, and without saying a word, he was hugged by a princess, and surrounded by several leading actors, he carried Da Mi Mi to the pergola built next to the RV.
A group of people from the crew immediately gathered around, including Da Mi Mi's assistant, executive director, and the leading actors such as Lao Hu, all came to check on the situation.
As soon as Zhang Hao put the big power on the chair, he was roughly pushed away by the executive director, and then was squeezed outside by the crowd.
Da Mi Mi's assistant was in a panic. Director Li Guoli came over in a hurry, his face ashen. After this accident, everyone's minds went blank for a moment. No one even thought about calling the crew doctor.
Zhang Hao looked at the hurried crew, a little funny, and reminded loudly: "Why are you panic? Find a doctor!"
"Yes, yes, find a doctor quickly."
"There is no doctor on the set, please send him to the hospital immediately!"
"Hurry, hurry, drive to the hospital."
After Zhang Hao's reminder, Li Guoli quickly arranged for someone to send Da Mi Mi to the hospital. In this day and age, many film crews do not yet have resident doctors.
There is a resident doctor on the crew. It is the time when the traffic is small and the fresh meat is coming. After all, the finger is injured and a doctor needs to deal with it in time, otherwise the wound will heal.
Zhang Hao didn't care that he was roughly pushed away by the executive director. The crew looked like birds. The extras were not human beings anyway. They were humans and not members of the crew.
Back under the shade of the tree where the extras were hiding from the sun, one of the extras came up and asked coquettishly: "Brother, do you think you have a good figure with a lot of power?"
Zhang Hao glanced at the acting buddies, shrugged and said, "I don't know, I don't have time to feel it."
The extras looked disappointed: "That's such a pity..."
The other extras were watching the fun under the shade of a tree. One of the leading actors fainted from heatstroke, so the extras just watched to see what was new. It was none of their business anyway.
There is a saying in Hengdian: In the group performances in Hengdian, the men are lazy and the women are bad. This is deeply reflected in the dozen or so group performances under the shade of the trees.
Maybe there are people who are really enthusiastic and watch the fun, and they are very common in the group performance circles in the capital.
After such an incident, the filming could not be carried out, so director Li Guoli announced the end of work, and then hurriedly rushed to the hospital to watch the power show.
Zhang Hao and a dozen other extras lined up to hand over their props, take off their makeup, and change their clothes before going to the group leader to sign in.
There was no WeChat in 2008, so the group leader would send out announcements through QQ, and then the extras would sign up in the group. Those who signed up would go to the place, and the group leader would select suitable people and then recruit them to the crew.
Work ended very early today. I came here at around 8 a.m. and finished work before 1 p.m.
There is no way, the main actors are in the hospital, the crew will definitely be shut down, and they have to call it a day. But it is a good thing for the extras. They can call it a day early and still get a day's pay.
The leader of the group stood in front of the minibus and read out people's names in a notebook. The people he read signed their names in the notebook, and then got on the bus and went back.
"Zhou Yang..."
"arrive……"
"Ma Yi..."
"arrive……"
"Sign here, next, Li Hyuk..." (Friendly guest appearance by Pig Knuckle Li Hyuk in the first three books, Orange Novel Universe)
"Come on..." A wretched middle-aged man stooped with a flattering smile and handed a cigarette to the group leader: "Brother Liu, you must think of me next time you have a good job!"
"It's easy to talk, sign, and get in the car quickly!" The leader of the group put the cigarette in his ears and waved his hand to urge Li He to get in the car.
"Zhang Hao..."
"Arrived..." Zhang Hao responded and came out.
"Sign here," the group leader pointed to the blank space behind Zhang Hao's name on the notebook, and at the same time handed Li He a hundred-dollar bill.
After Zhang Hao signed his name, he took the banknote in surprise and asked, "Brother Liu, what is this?"
"The crew asked me to give it to you. You did a great job just now. You know the rules. Don't talk nonsense when you go back." Brother Liu warned.
In this case, Zhang Hao accepted it and nodded: "Brother Liu, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense everywhere."
"Get in the car!" Brother Liu waved his hand and shouted: "Next, Zhao Ziwei..."
When getting on the bus, Zhang Hao received envious and jealous looks from the extras. He secretly hated himself for not seizing the opportunity, otherwise the hundred yuan would have belonged to them.
Zhang Hao had long expected this scene. He, or rather his former self, had just arrived in Hengdian a few days ago. He was unfamiliar with the place and had few acquaintances in Hengdian.
Zhang Hao had experienced what the Hengdian group actors were like, and he knew they were inseparable. He simply closed his eyes and fell asleep, ignoring these boring group actors.
After Brother Liu took the call, he got on the bus and signaled the driver to drive back.
At this time, one of the extras said excitedly: "Today is salary day, go back and buy some wine."
"What's the point of drinking? Why don't you go and have fun with your mother-in-law?"
"Okay, the one last time was really good, the ball was really big..."
Brother Liu didn't care about the dirty talk of the extras, and even discussed with several extras which female extras were good in bed. Zhang Hao was not interested, and was thinking about all kinds of good and bad things in his mind.
In my impression, he was working as a group performer in Hengdian until after this year's National Day, and then he was called back by a phone call from his mother.
My mother, Zhang Yu, is the boss of an advertising company, and is considered a wealthy person with tens of millions of assets. She divorced Zhang Hao's father in her early years, and then the unknown father immigrated.
Zhang Hao grew up with his grandparents. Because his grandfather was an employee of Beijing Film Studio in his early years, Zhang Hao played in Beijing Film Studio since he was a child.
Therefore, Zhang Hao became interested in movies because of his grandfather's relationship, and despite the opposition of his mother Zhang Yu, he applied for the Directing Department of Beijing Film Academy.
After graduating from the directing department, Zhang Hao did not follow his grandfather's arrangements and find a position in the capital. Instead, he came to Hengdian and worked as a drifter for several months.
Until Zhang Yu asked him to go back and work in his family's advertising company.
As for becoming a director, it will be more than ten years later. After more than ten years, he has become a hot director in the advertising industry, and then used the advertising industry as a springboard to enter the film and television industry.
After that, he steadily rose step by step, and finally ushered in the most glorious moment, directing the domestic science fiction masterpiece "The Three-Body Problem". Then because the filming was too bad, he was thrown back to 2008 by aliens.
Now that there is a chance to come back, Zhang Hao will definitely not make the same mistake again.
If you want to do it in one step and directly become a director, the alien veteran has already launched the weapon of causality and wiped out so many classic movies from the previous world in his mind.
If nothing happens, Zhang Hao might as well buy a piece of tofu and kill him.
As for whether this would be a time-space paradox or a parallel universe, Zhang Hao didn't care. Anyway, he, an earthworm in the eyes of an alien, couldn't understand these profound things.
Let’s start from now on!
I don’t know how Hengdian extras worked in 2008. The Hengdian Actors Guild was established in 2003. I think it’s pretty much the same now, so just give it a try!
