The next day, Zeng Li got up early and made him a love breakfast, which barely dispelled Cao Xuan's depression.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Zhu Jiang picked up the two of them on time and rushed to the last important scene of the "Those Years" music video - the heroine's wedding in the hotel.
Location Selection: This hotel is very welcoming to Cao Xuan's MV shooting, and even offered to help decorate the wedding venue for free, and the hotel waiters can also come as extras.
But the boss has a request, that is, let the hotel implant it in the mv.
For this reason, the MV specially added a shot of the male protagonist Cao Xuan entering the hotel by car, and the hotel's signboard was also photographed, stopping for two seconds. The layout of the venue also included items with the hotel's name imprinted on it.
Later, the hotel owner may have felt a little embarrassed, so he discounted the rental fee.
The hotel scene is roughly divided into two parts.
Part of it is a real scene, where the male protagonist is sitting at the guest table and witnesses his lover getting married. Part of it is the male protagonist's imagination. He bravely stood up to snatch the bride.
The first thing to shoot was the real-life scene, because there would be some fighting and pushing when snatching a bride, which would damage the scene to a certain extent, so I had to put it later.
Zeng Li wore a white wedding dress, which she rented from a bridal shop. Next to her was the husband of the heroine in the music video, an ordinary-looking young man who also served as a photography assistant.
Chen Hanzhu was confirming his position with the extras when Zeng Li ran up to Cao Xuan holding the hem of his wedding dress and spun around in a somewhat showy manner.
"Does it look good?"
"nice."
Cao Xuan sincerely praised: "I even wanted to change the script and let the male protagonist succeed in snatching the bride."
Zeng Li returned home satisfied and went to the makeup artist for touch-ups. Cao Xuan turned around and found the assistant director in charge of costumes.
"Ask the bridal shop how much this wedding dress costs, I bought it."
The assistant director was puzzled: "Why did you buy it? It costs thousands of dollars. It's not worth it."
"I think it looks good, so I bought it and kept it at home."
Cao Xuan successfully persuaded the assistant director with his attitude of "If you have money, I will do whatever you want."
It's not a waste of his money anyway. Even if Cao Xuan bought the bridal shop, it has nothing to do with him...
………
During the actual filming, there were two difficulties in this section.
Chen Hanzhu wanted Zeng Li to show the happy smile of a woman marrying in love, but Zeng Li's smile was always a bit weak.
Later, Cao Xuan came up with the idea to change into the groom's clothes and act as a substitute.
The groom didn't need to show his face, he just offered his arm for Zeng Li to hold, and then just took photos of Zeng Li.
Not to mention, this trick is really useful.
Seeing Cao Xuan dressed in groom's clothes and himself in a wedding dress standing together, Zeng Li smiled particularly beautifully and happily.
The sweeter Zeng Li smiles, the more bitter Cao Xuan in the audience will be. Only in this way will the conflict be stronger, and the audience will be tortured to death.
This is a bit difficult for Cao Xuan, who is bitter and helpless and easy to play.
But he would not be sure for a while. Chen Hanzhu wanted to be in a state of smiling on the face and crying in the heart. The most important thing is to let the audience see it.
Later, Cao Xuan figured out how to act.
Looking at the bride on the stage, as the guests applauded and cheered, she smiled with sincere blessings.
But when it was quiet, while others were changing glasses, his eyes followed the bride's figure infatuatedly. In his slightly watery eyes, there were nostalgia, pain, recollection and final relief...
After watching Cao Xuan's performance, Chen Hanzhu praised: "Mr. Cao, I think your eye scene is particularly interesting and your emotions are conveyed very well, which is rare."
Cao Xuan was thoughtful. After several performances, he also had some understanding of his acting skills.
Physical performance, expression control, and body movements are good, but not outstanding. Lines are his strong point. After all, he is a singer, which is a plus in this aspect.
In addition, what is more arresting about him is his eye play. Not only Chen Hanzhu expressed his appreciation, but also Yuan Baye and Kang Honglei praised him.
Although he is not able to speak with his eyes like Best Actor Liang, he can still express the character's heart clearly and with a certain degree of emotional rendering.
Cao Xuan feels that in the future he can strengthen his training and learning in eye scenes and micro-expressions.
Having thousands of skills at your disposal is worse than specializing in one skill.
If you can master this killer trick, you won't have to worry about making a living as an actor.
After filming the real-life scenes, the next scene is about snatching the bride.
Cao Xuan's marriage robbery was not done by one person, but by several people. After all, it was an MV, so there was no need to pay too much attention to rationality. The extra people were mainly to stop the groom.
Then the male and female protagonists kiss under the light. After kissing, the male protagonist pulls the female protagonist in a wedding dress and runs away.
The outstanding romance is also a strong contrast with the real-life scene where the male protagonist witnesses the female protagonist getting married.
Chen Hanzhu gave an order, and several groups of guests rushed out to huddle with the groom and the groom. They seemed to be violently pushing and fighting, but they did not move a step.
Cao Xuan went straight to Zeng Li, hugged and kissed the heroine in his surprised eyes.
sweet!
soft!
It has an icy cooling feeling with a little mint, which is very refreshing.
Cao Xuan's remaining depression from yesterday was gone.
"OK, passed."
Chen Hanzhu shouted, and Cao Xuan let go of Zeng Li. With Zeng Li's face turned red, he ran back to the monitoring room to watch the replay.
"You were so red just now, do you want another one?"
Cao Xuan deliberately teased Zeng Li, but Beauty Zeng stepped on him hard: "There are so many people, it's almost enough."
"Then it's up to you. We'll kiss you when we get home."
"Pooh."
The two were flirting here, and Chen Hanzhu seemed to be deaf, with his eyes stuck in the monitor and unable to come out.
After finishing filming this scene, the hotel scene was almost finished. We added a scene where the male and female protagonists were alone for the last time. The male protagonist was relieved and sent his blessings, and the work was almost finished today.
After some additional shots are completed tomorrow and in the next two days, the MV for "Those Years" will officially be over.
That night, Zeng Li did not return to the hotel, but followed Cao Xuan back to his Haidian apartment. The two filmed several more kissing scenes at home.
However, Cao Xuan still failed to enter the room, even though he had secretly hidden a key to Zeng Li's bedroom.
But unexpectedly, Zeng Li made a clever move and blocked the keyhole. The door could only be opened from the inside, and the key he hid was useless.
Cao Xuan didn't know whether to be happy that Zeng Li was so alert to his own safety, or to lament that he was unlucky to have such a smart little girl.
But it was impossible to break in by force. He didn't want to be criminally detained by the police on suspicion of a certain crime...
After two days of sweet cohabitation and battles of wits, "Those Years" was officially wrapped. Cao Xuan packed his bags and prepared to go to Luzhou, Hui Province to film "The True Colors of a Detective".
Before leaving, Cao Xuan gave Zeng Li the key to the Haidian apartment, officially treating the house as their home.
Zeng Li did not refuse. Instead, he happily took Cao Xuan to the mall to do some shopping and decorated the apartment according to his own ideas.
However, although the apartment was decorated very warmly, Zeng Li did not choose to move out of the school dormitory, but insisted on living in Zhongxi Opera.
Until Cao Xuan got on the plane to Luzhou, he recalled in his mind the fighting spirit that surged in Zeng Li's eyes when he talked about the dormitory, and he still felt a little scared.
No, I have to buy a house next time I return to Beijing. The morning sun is unlucky, so I will go to Tongzhou to buy it.
