Chapter 599: Brother Chen Kai is defeated (Part 2)
Pouring his lips, Jing said calmly after a few seconds: "It should be to show Yi Yao's struggle to commit suicide, so he walked back and forth."
This scene is different from the previous one played by Xiao Zan and the others. Yi Yao was bullied enough, her classmates discovered and publicized that her mother was a massage girl in the alley, and her good friends were distrustful. A series of things such as Yi Yao's self-esteem was frustrated, so she started to have a suicidal mentality.
"Actually, you shouldn't ask me about this kind of thing, it's better to ask the director, he is the one who arranged the things.
"The person who knows the most about a film is definitely the director. He knows exactly what kind of scene each character is going to present."
Shen Mengchen was embarrassed, "I know, but I don't dare to ask for fear of being scolded."
"So you can't be an actor." Fang Jing laughed and said loudly to Brother Chen Kai: "Director, Shen Mengchen said she doesn't understand why there are footprints."
"Wait a minute, I'll explain it to you later."
"Look, isn't this okay?" Fang Jing smiled: "The director is not afraid of the actors asking, but he is afraid of not asking."
"If you shoot without knowing anything, it will just be the same thing over and over again. It will waste the director's time and the crew's time, and then you will be scolded."
Shen Mengchen was afraid of directors, which was why Fang Jing concluded that she could not become an actress. No actor would be afraid of directors.
The director is likened to the brain and the actor is the torso. If the hands and feet are not coordinated, can a good work be completed?
It was more than an hour after the scene was set up, and it took nearly four hours. After dinner, the seven of them had time to sit down and talk about the script.
By this time, the three leading actors also knew their lines by heart.
Liu Junfeng stood next to Brother Chen Kai holding the script, "Director Chen, I want to add something to the performance later. Can I add a few words here?"
On the set, it is taboo to change lines without the director. Of course, Liu Junfeng must obtain permission for this kind of thing, let alone in Chen Kaige's group.
He is not as salty as Cheng Ruoxuan, he just wants to be exposed. The championship is useless to Fang Jing, but it may be the future for him.
After taking a look, Brother Chen Kai nodded, "Okay!"
"Thank you, director." Liu Junfeng was overjoyed and tried to ask: "This character is a rich boy. Can I put a watch on my wrist?"
Turning around and looking around, Liu Junfeng's eyes were fixed on Brother Chen Kai's wrist.
Of course, it is impossible for a kid from a rich family to wear an electronic watch. It’s ridiculous to say that the more expensive the better, Lao Chen’s watch meets the requirements and is expensive enough!
"Okay!" Brother Chen Kai smiled and started to take off his watch strap.
The six of them were surprised. Liu Junfeng was not so courageous. He just wanted to add words, but he even had the idea to ask Brother Chen Kai for his watch.
"You'd better use mine." Fang Jing stopped Brother Chen Kai and chuckled: "You are too mature and don't look like a young man. Mine is more suitable."
"Okay, then use yours." Brother Chen Kai nodded and fastened the watch strap again. His watch was indeed not for a young man.
Cheng Ruoxuan smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Fang."
After receiving a watch worth hundreds of thousands and putting it on my hand, I already had the aura of a rich kid before I even started acting.
"Director, I also want to make some changes in the way I hug Yi Yao..."
The requests were made again and again, and everyone was sweating for Liu Junfeng. This guy was really not afraid of death, and he didn't even look at who was in front of him. A-list celebrities didn't have as many things to do as him.
The strange thing is that Brother Chen Kai agreed to all Liu Junfeng's requests without any impatience on his face.
Fang Jing felt a bit like the calm before the storm. It would be weird if Brother Chen Kai was so easy to talk to. How many top celebrities were scolded and cried by him on the set.
Directors tend to have bad tempers and often curse when they get angry. Fang Jing has few directors who don't curse.
"Thank you, director, for your understanding." Liu Junfeng looked proudly and glanced at Cheng Ruoxuan, "Is this what you want?"
Don't argue where it came from now?
Shen Mengchen and Cheng Ruoxuan didn't have much to do. They sat obediently and listened to the director talking about the script and characters. Half an hour later, the seven of them came to the set and were ready to start acting.
The recording of the program officially starts tomorrow, and they only have twenty-four hours. Excluding the time for sleeping and setting up scenes at night, they have less than ten hours left.
Shen Mengchen and Liu Junfeng entered the classroom, and Cheng Ruoxuan stood at the door of the classroom on standby.
The remaining people were in the temporary director's booth outside the house, squatting next to Brother Chen Kai and watching the director's monitor.
Holding the walkie-talkie, Brother Chen Kai said: "Don't be anxious, take your time, we have few scenes and enough time."
When he usually makes a movie, he can shoot about eight effective shots in a day, which is one minute in the movie. A 100-minute movie takes 100 days to shoot.
But that requires careful work. He can do a movie like Fang Jing in more than 20 days.
"Shen Mengchen, start acting!"
Following the director's order, people in the classroom began to enter the scene. Shen Mengchen stood on the desk, a few steps away from the window sill, seven floors below.
"Don't be impulsive. It has been found out. The person who sent the text message to my sister is not you." Liu Junfeng looked nervous, rolled his eyes and said, "I believe you now."
"Believe it? Huh, don't you want me to pay for your sister's life? Don't you understand? What I want is relief."
"Stuck!" Brother Chen Kai shouted to stop, "You two come over and take a look."
Calling the two people in the scene to him, Brother Chen Kai said: "Yi Yao's eyes are wrong. Your body is almost motionless in this shot. The only thing that can express emotions is the eyes. What I want is the eyes."
"The classmates in your class bully you, saying that your mother is a massage girl in an alley and doing shady business. They say that you have never worn a famous brand or used the toilet. You have low self-esteem."
"What's more important is that even the person you like doesn't believe you, so you want to commit suicide and end this life."
Seemingly understanding, Shen Mengchen nodded, not sure whether he heard it or not.
We did it again, and within a few minutes we were called again. It was the same shot from the beginning, going back and forth a dozen times, and Fang Jing sat back and yawned again and again.
Shen Mengchen collapsed, Liu Junfeng was impatient, and Cheng Ruoxuan was helpless. Until now, he has not been able to appear.
Brother Chen Kai said: "Ruoxuan and Liu Junfeng will take a break first, and Shen Mengchen will perform by himself."
At the door of the classroom, Cheng Ruoxuan comforted Shen Mengchen, "Don't be anxious, take your time."
Hunching her head, Shen Mengchen sighed heavily and said with a wry smile: "I heard that Zhang Yuqi had more than 80 looking back shots in The Legend of the Cat Demon. Even she had more than 80 shots in the hands of Director Chen. I think I have at least 80 shots. Double that."
In front of the monitor, Fang Jing burst out laughing, "Director Chen, is this really the case?"
"Yes, but Zhang Yuqi's situation is completely different from hers." Brother Chen Kai took off the radio headphones, "That's because I want to find a few more scenes, and it has nothing to do with Zhang Yuqi's acting skills."
"Shen Mengchen's side is much simpler. She can't act and can't understand what I mean, or she understands but can't act. That's the situation."
Fang Jing frowned, dragging his chin and looking at Shen Mengchen on the screen, "I suggest you stop acting now and explain the scene clearly to her. If you continue, she will collapse."
Actors often perform best in their first act, but the more they change, the worse it gets, and even movie stars can't handle it.
When filming Days of Being Wild, Tony Leung did a two-minute scene dozens of times and a pear-eating scene 27 times. When he got home, he cried and said that Wang Jiawei might not like him.
