The behind-the-scenes lineup of "Qiao Family Courtyard" is very strong. For example, the three photographers are all famous photographers who can stand alone.
Cui Weidong is director Hu Mei's royal photographer and Uncle Li's apprentice. He has photographed Hu Mei's "Yongzheng Dynasty" and "Emperor of Han Dynasty".
Zhou Bo has directed the TV series "Peace Era", "Military Secrets", and the movie "Red Lovers".
Jia Yonghua is a little bit worse, but he is also a master of air affairs. His old man is the leader of the New Film Studio. He once worked for Mao Zedong and is an old acquaintance with He Xin. Ning Hao often goes to the New Film Studio to work.
Through his relationship.
Most of the guest actors are actors previously used by director Hu Mei, such as the Eighth Master and Thirteenth Master in "The Yongzheng Dynasty" and Wei Qing in "The Great Emperor Wu of Han".
The next day, when the actors were almost all present, Director Hu Mei used the hotel conference room to convene a meeting with everyone, mainly to get to know each other and explain the upcoming work.
There is no doubt that He Xin is the youngest among everyone, but he is the most well-known, and more importantly, he has won the most honors in terms of awards, so no one dares to underestimate him.
But the more this happens, the more low-key He Xin becomes.
This is also something that Hong Jie Qian Dingzhu never told before. A big drama like this, which was bought out by CCTV before filming started, will inevitably involve many veteran actors. Even though they are just playing supporting roles, they have a lot of connections in the industry.
Sometimes he is so loud that it's scary. Sister Hong is always worried that he won't speak wisely and will easily offend people.
Of course, He Xin is not an arrogant person at heart, on the contrary, he is very polite.
As soon as you enter the door, your posture will be very low.
"teacher Zhu!"
This is screenwriter Zhu Xiuhai.
"Teacher Cui! Teacher Zhou! Oh, Brother Jia, you are here too!"
Three photographers.
"Hello, Teacher Lei!"
Facing Li Gesheng, who plays his father-in-law in the play, he has special respect. The old man plays well.
"Hello, Mr. Wang!"
The eighth master and the thirteenth master both have the surname Wang.
"Teacher Xu! Teacher Lu!"
This is the second-generation shopkeeper of the Qiao family. Xu Zhengyun, who plays shopkeeper Cao, is a veteran of the West Film Studio.
Pan Weiyan's guest appearance is Lu Jianming, who played Wei Qing in "Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty". Just seeing his smiling face, He Xin can't help but think of "Sailor".
In the end, there were only three female actors left sitting next to the director.
"Sister-in-law!"
He walked over and bowed respectfully to the oldest one.
Zhao Lijuan, the concubine in "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", plays his sister-in-law Cao Yuezhi in the play.
Seeing his behavior, Zhao Lijuan pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Hey, Zhiyong is here, let's sit with you two wives!"
This guy took advantage of the situation and squeezed next to Jiang Qinqin, who was laughing and watching the fun, deliberately kept a certain distance from Ma Yili and said, "This is my wife, and that one is my enemy!"
Ma Yili met him for the first time today. Compared with Jiang Qinqin, who became famous at the age of seventeen or eighteen and became a Joan in her early twenties, Commander Ma became famous relatively late, that is, she just won the movie "My Fair Princess 3" two years ago.
"The crape myrtle in " is relatively famous.
She was originally very curious about He Xin, and even a little restrained, but now she saw his funny look and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, which seemed to completely subvert the image of the big stars in her mind.
But after all, people can say "Although falling in love is easy, marriage is not easy, but you have to do it and cherish it." and "You and I have loved each other deeply, worked hard, and achieved each other. There are regrets in this relationship, but there is no right or wrong. From now on, we will live our lives together.
"Happy." The emotional intelligence of a woman with such golden words is no less than that of He Xin's girlfriend with high emotional intelligence.
I saw her grinning, revealing her cute little tiger teeth, and said in a cooing voice unique to Shanghai women: "Yes, you are my enemy!"
"Hahaha!"
Everyone in the room laughed in unison.
how to say?
He Xin is the youngest, has the biggest name, and the highest salary. Even if he behaves very low-key, some people will inevitably think that he is just putting on airs. However, when he is so funny, others will be happy to see him embarrassed, and at the same time, they will feel a little better.
.
Even director Hu Mei, who has always been very serious, covered his mouth and kept laughing.
Jiang Qinqin, who was squeezed onto a stool by him, was a little embarrassed. She blushed and pushed him and said, "Sit in your own seat."
"Why!"
Jiang Qinqin was a little surprised by how cheerful this guy was. With his funny look just now, it seemed a bit abnormal not to say a few flirty words to him, which made Jiang Qinqin a little doubtful of his own charm.
Just when she was worrying about gains and losses, He Xin suddenly turned around and smiled at her: "Sister Qinqin, I haven't seen you for a few months, you are beautiful again!"
Huh?
Jiang Qinqin's face, which had just recovered, instantly turned red. She breathed a sigh of relief, and subconsciously gave him two sanitary balls. She bit her lip and said, "Why are you like this? You are becoming more and more glib.
"
He Xin really wanted to reply to her: How do you know I'm glib?
Of course, he can only think about this kind of thing in his heart, and never say it with his mouth. He doesn't want to become Brother Xiao Ming, too greasy!
So he just smiled apologetically, then turned around to another beauty who was slightly less beautiful, but had an infectious smile with small tiger teeth. He stretched out his hand and formally introduced himself: "He Xin, please take care of me.
!”
"Ma Yili, please take care of me, Teacher He!"
"Hey, Teacher Ma, you're welcome!"
"No, Teacher He, you are so polite!"
"Teacher Ma, you..."
Seeing the two people talking and laughing back and forth, Jiang Qinqin didn't know why she suddenly felt a little panicked in her heart. She was nearly thirty years old and had been through many storms. Of course she would not admit that this was her natural reaction. Could it be that she was in advance?
Into the drama?
Little did they know that Hu Mei was looking at them with her little eyes blinking, and the corners of her mouth turned up involuntarily.
…
Although the official launch ceremony of "Qiao's Courtyard" will not be held until the second day of the second lunar month when the dragon raises its head, the pre-production work of filming the material has already begun.
The reason why Director Hu Mei asked the actors to join the cast in advance is, as she said at the meeting, to let them feel the characters in the shooting environment and find their most accurate positioning of the characters.
During this time, He Xin ran to Qiao's courtyard every day.
The Qiao Family Courtyard is only twelve kilometers away from the county seat, which is very convenient. It only requires a step on the accelerator. Although the Qiao Family Courtyard is still a tourist attraction at this time, it only receives two or three tourists every day, making it very deserted.
This TV series was originally led by the local government, so the support was not as strong as usual. Not only could the crew film on site, but all the staff in the Qiao Family Courtyard were extras on the crew. On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the crew came for the first time
The material was shot here. The male staff here didn't say anything and all had their heads shaved. They didn't care about the custom of shaving their heads to kill their uncles in the first month of the year. Hu Mei was very moved.
In fact, the staff here know very well that the Qiao family compound is now at the end of its rope, and the only life-saving straw is this TV series. The TV series became popular, just like "Raise the Red Lantern" back then, which made the Qiao family...
The hospital became an instant hit and became known throughout the country. Then this place can be maintained for at least another ten years, and no one has to worry about being laid off.
He Xin came here to report on time every morning, and occasionally met the crew filming here. He didn't care, and Hu Mei ignored him. Every day, he stayed in Qiao Zhiyong's study, the room where he and Lu Yuhan stayed after their marriage,
Before getting married, she and Sun Maocai were fooling around in the attic where he was studying.
Sometimes he would sit on the roof where Qiao Zhiyong often sat in a daze in the original version. He was also in a daze, and he would sit there for most of the day, and every time he would come down because he couldn't bear the cold.
Occasionally, I would go to the village of Qiaojiabao and listen to the villagers telling stories about Qiao Zhiyong.
When I'm in a good mood, I'll drive to the ancient city of Pingyao, which is more than 40 kilometers away, to visit, because this is also a very important scene for the crew to shoot.
Jiang Qinqin suffers from the fact that he wanders around without seeing his tail every day. Although Jiang Xueying, played by Ma Yili, is Qiao Zhiyong's childhood sweetheart, except for some sweet interactions between the two in the early stage, there are almost no antagonistic scenes.
Because of love and hatred, Jiang Xueying spent almost her whole life against Qiao Zhiyong.
In contrast, Jiang Qinqin has many scenes with him. The director also mentioned in the meeting that the actors should complete the running-in as soon as possible, but now Jiang Qinqin can't even find someone to match the lyrics. In desperation, he can only go there at night.
Knock on the door.
Of course, there is no way something as bloody as the "luminous script" will happen.
At this time, he would always invite Ni Dahong, Zhang Yi, Ma Yong, and the actor who played Jiang Qinqin's maid over, make a pot of good tea, and ask Xiao Luzi to get some fruit snacks, and everyone would have a small
script reading meeting.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day when the dragon raised its head in February. Early in the morning, everyone lined up to take turns shaving their heads, and then put on braids one by one.
When Hu Mei was filming "The Yongzheng Dynasty", the characters in it still wore the traditional moon-head braids, but this was obviously inconsistent with history.
From the early Qing Dynasty to the Qianlong period, people had the kind of money rat tail. That is, leaving only a strand of hair the size of a copper coin on the back of the head, braided into a braid so thin that it can pass through the copper coin hole. The round head drags a thin line,
Almost like a mouse.
Then it was not until the end of the Qing Dynasty that it gradually evolved into a moon head. However, it is not accurate to say that the moon head is just a little bit on the back of the head, accounting for about one-third of the entire head.
Maybe Director Hu Mei has realized the mistakes in "Yongzheng Dynasty", or he just made mistakes for the sake of good looks. In "Qiao Family Courtyard", what Qiao Zhiyong experienced was at the end of the Qing Dynasty, so all the actors and actresses on the crew, including the extras, were all the same.
A braid that only leaves one-third of the hair on the back of the head.
At the same time, actresses also pay a lot of attention to their makeup. For example, the characters played by Jiang Qinqin and Ma Yili have completely different ways of combing their hair before and after marriage. There are even more than a dozen different ways of combing one hair.
He Xin admired director Hu Mei's rigorous working style, and for the first time felt lucky that he had taken on this drama.
