Lou Ye, who had been living in seclusion, finally appeared.
He Xin discovered that this dark and thin little man especially likes black, black shirts, black trousers, black sneakers, and even black socks. When filming on set, he often wears a black peaked cap.
"you……"
Lou Ye continued his usual politeness with a shy smile on his face. After shaking hands with Feng Yuanzheng, he didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Feng Yuanzheng probably understood his style and said hurriedly: "Director, I came here just to take a look and familiarize myself with the environment of the scene. You are busy!"
"What a neglect!"
Lou Ye nodded, then saw him take out a piece of paper and hand it to He Xin. At the same time, he looked at Li Bingbing and said, "I want this feeling in the next game."
He Xin took it over and took a look. There were two words "ambiguous" written on the white paper.
He nodded and handed it to Li Bingbing, who came over to watch. He did not ask the director how to act. Even if he asked the director, he would not answer. He just said: "It takes a little time to prepare."
"good!"
Lou Ye answered simply, nodded to Feng Yuanzheng with apologetic eyes, and then turned back to his small dark room where he seemed to have hidden a treasure and never wanted to come out.
There is one good thing about Lou Ye. He is not like some directors who act like they are the best in the world on the set. He loses his temper and curses at every turn, trying to show off his authority.
He is always very polite and patient. If you tell him that you need time to prepare, he will rarely rush you to get ready. He will wait patiently. If you feel that you have taken too long to prepare, I'm sorry.
If it drags on and the performance is awkward, he won't say anything. At most, he will just say: "Can you perform it again?"
He Xin and Li Bingbing also said hello to Feng Yuanzheng, and both returned to the filming scene in the building opposite. This is the apartment of Tang Yiling, played by Li Bingbing. It is obviously more grand and western-style than the small apartment of Situ.
The artists and props in the room were still busy arranging the scene, and the lighting engineer was adjusting the lighting. Only the photographer Wang Yu was sitting on the sofa in the room doing nothing.
Because there are a lot of hand-held shots and panning shots during the filming process, there is no need to deliberately arrange the camera positions. For today's scene, a track was laid in the house, and the machine was rarely placed on a shelf.
When He Xin entered the room, he happened to see the prop master holding a record player and carefully placing it on the cabinet. He was very curious. He had often seen this kind of thing in movies and TV dramas before. He took a vinyl record and put it up.
Then put the needle on it to play music.
However, this was the first time he had seen such a real thing. He couldn't help but walked over and took a look. He didn't find any wire plugs or anything like that, so he lifted up the record player and looked for it.
"Hey, be careful. This is the only one in this old factory. If it breaks, there's no place to repair it." The prop master said hurriedly and carefully holding the record player.
"Why is there no plug?"
"Why does such an old-fashioned thing have a plug?" The prop master glanced at him with the eyes of a countryman, and then introduced: "Did you see this crank handle? This is a hand-cranked gramophone. It was a high-end product at that time.
, until after liberation, many wealthy families still used this."
As he said that, he took out another vinyl record with very old packaging and said proudly: "Do you know what this is? This is Yao Li's original record. This thing can now be called an antique. If you want
If the director had insisted on using the original version, I would still be reluctant to use it!"
"Who is Yao Li?"
"Yao Li, you don't even know! Hey, I see that Nong is staying in the north! Yao Li was one of the seven famous singing queens in Shanghai at that time. She is as famous as Zhou Xuan. Does Zhou Xuannon know about it?
"
He Xin nodded hurriedly.
The prop master continued with an exaggerated expression: ""Rose, Rose, Love Me, You" is just a song, do you know how to cut it?"
"know!"
As he said that, He Xin even hummed a few words: "Rose, rose, I love you, the long summer blooms on the branches..."
This song is widely circulated. Zhao Wei sang it in last year's hit "Love in the Rain".
However, when He Xin sang, his voice was a bit horrible. But before he could even hum a few words, the prop master interrupted him and said, "No, no, Nong's singing is wrong. This is how it should be sung..."
As he said this, the props master in his early fifties, who usually looked a bit old-fashioned, hummed: "Rose is the most delicate, rose is the most gorgeous, long summer blooms on the branches..."
"Pfft!"
The prop master's drake voice was even worse, and he ran into the Huangpu River out of tune. Li Bingbing, who had been secretly listening to their conversation, couldn't help laughing.
This somewhat complacent old man from Shanghai suddenly blushed. He waved his hands and forced himself to explain: "My voice is not good, but the lyrics are like this."
Li Bingbing suppressed his smile and apologized: "Master Li, no, no, I didn't mean it, I'm sorry!"
He Xin was also there to smooth things over and said: "Master Li, she will have to make this record player later. How to play records? Please teach her how to do it!"
It is said that the reason why He Xin can get along with the middle-aged backstage team of the film studio is that on the one hand he has no airs, and on the other hand he can speak fluent Shanghainese. There is no barrier between him and these locals, and it is easier to get along with them.
accepted by them.
Li Bingbing watched with envy in her heart. Although she went to college here for four years, like many new Shanghainese, she has been here for a long time and can understand, but she just can't speak.
"Xiao Li should know it, right?"
In the eyes of the prop master, Li Bingbing obviously has more experience in the market than He Xin, a country boy.
"Yes, I can."
Li Bingbing nodded, said, went over and put the vinyl record on the turntable, then gently shook the handle, and then carefully placed the stylus on the record.
After a slight stylus scratched the "sand" of the record, a blues prelude sounded from the speaker, and then came Yao Li's steady and rich singing voice: "I can't get your love, just like there is no light on a winter night, if you don't give it
My infatuated heart is like a trace that cannot be found in the dark night..."
This is a rumba with a strong rhythm. Matched with Yao Li's beautiful singing voice, Li Bingbing couldn't help but follow the music while listening, gently twisting his body and moving his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
Little by little.
He Xin was also twisting with her beside him. There was originally a scene in the script: Situ followed Yi Ling to her apartment. Yi Ling changed her clothes, turned on the gramophone, and the two young people danced gracefully to the music.
And the heavy rain outside the window is heavy...
It's time to rehearse.
He Xin's physical training at Zhongxi Opera was not in vain. Those difficult movements such as kicking his legs above his head and doing a horse move are now easy to do. Not to mention dancing, it's a piece of cake. Not that he can dance.
It's great, but at least there's no problem with the prom.
But at this time, he consciously entered the role, and his movements matched Li Bingbing's, which made him a little clumsy. He took the initiative to reach out to her.
This firewood girl still remembered He Xin's teasing about her age just now, so she couldn't help but rolled her eyes at him, but she still put her hand in his palm, let him hold it, and then made an enchanting turn in time with the music.
Suddenly, there was a "squeaking" sound outside the window, and several fire hydrants began to spray into the sky. Dense droplets of water fell from the sky, like a downpour.
I don't know when it started in the room, but photographer Wang Yu had quietly turned on the camera, and the camera lens was aimed at them dancing and sliding slowly on the track.
Li Bingbing subconsciously turned to look at the camera, but was pulled back by He Xin, who made a "don't look" gesture when facing the camera.
After all, Chai Huo Niu is experienced in many battles, and she understands instantly. According to the plot, she lowers her head slightly and shows a shy expression. And He Xin, because he is tall, slightly arches his back, dances to the music, and always looks at her with affectionate eyes.
Hold each other.
The so-called three major schools of performance are the experiential school, the method school, and the expression school. He Xin understands the expression school very well, which uses skills to perform, but he has not yet fully understood the experiential school and the method school.
For example, now he feels that he has entered the character of Situ, but when facing Li Bingbing, he still unconsciously thinks of the scene when he flew to Tokyo to surprise his girlfriend, and he replaced it with his feelings for Cheng Hao.
Situ's feelings for Yi Ling at this time.
Obviously this is a methodical approach.
Regardless, he imagined Li Bingbing in front of him as his girlfriend, and his eyes gradually became hotter when he looked at her.
Li Bingbing was also brewing emotions at this time. When he quietly raised his head and came into contact with his fiery eyes, the active heart in his body suddenly felt like it skipped a beat. His eyes quickly moved away like a frightened bird, and two red clouds floated in the air.
On her cheek.
I have to say that although this Chaihuo girl has average acting talent, she is a very smart person. She immediately realized that she had just been led by He Xin.
She immediately grasped this fleeting feeling, and with He Xin's fiery gaze, her expression became shy and her eyes wandered. As her figure danced, she would touch each other's eyes from time to time, but then drift away instantly, sometimes lowering her head, sometimes coyly,
Sometimes I am secretly happy...
Finally, as the music dropped the last note, He Xin took her hand a little harder, and saw Li Bingbing turn around gracefully and lean into his arms.
Just like that, He Xin hugged her waist, and the two of them looked out the window at the same time...
The camera slowly zoomed in, finally giving a big close-up of the two men and women immersed in happiness.
"Card!"
The executive director holding the walkie-talkie finally shouted stop.
He Xin quickly let go of his hand. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh that this Chaihuo girl's waist was quite soft. Then he complained to the executive director: "Brother Bing, please say hello first when you turn on the camera next time, okay? Don't be too old."
This is a surprise attack."
Executive director Ren Bing smiled and waved to him and said, "Just now I saw the scene of you two dancing so beautifully that I couldn't help but tell you to turn it on. I will definitely tell you next time!"
At this time, the intercom pinged, and the floor director's voice finally came: "The episode just now was very good! Can we play this scene over again?"
