"Why bother?"
When Gou Rixin asked Tao Mu with expectation whether he needed the camera crew to help him record a dance video, Tao Mu said blankly: "I have already recorded the video. I am just waiting for the number of registered users on Feixun.com to exceed 100 million, and then I can upload the video directly."
Ever since he took on the role of Su Dingbang, Tao Mu knew that his winter vacation would be very busy. The number of registered users of Feixun.com has reached more than 99 million. Tao Mu has always been a person who plans ahead. When he was worried about the data breaking 100 million, he didn't have any extra time to record dance videos. So in the first few days of winter vacation, Tao Mu recorded the video in the dance studio of Beijing Film Academy. Everything is ready, just waiting for the east wind to arrive and then upload the video to the Internet.
"What?" The crew members who had been paying close attention to the situation looked at each other and couldn't help but scream.
"When did you record the video?" Jiang Cheng, who once played Zhang Wuke in the final drama and now plays a progressive female student in The Great Wall of Flesh and Blood, stood up from behind the prop box with great excitement: "Didn't we agree to let the crew's cameraman help record the video? Weren't you dancing on the set?"
"Who did you agree to this?" Tao Mu was also confused. How come he doesn't know it himself? And: "Student Jiang Cheng, why are you hiding behind the prop box to listen to us talking...your costume is dirty."
"That's not important." Jiang Cheng looked at Tao Mu with disappointment: "Tao Mu, how could you be like this? We've been looking forward to it for a long time."
Gou Rixin touched his nose in embarrassment and said, "We all thought you weren't prepared, so we discussed how to record the video with you. The reason we didn't tell you was because we wanted to give you a surprise." In fact, they all wanted to join in the fun.
Director Zhou Hong also added with great disappointment: "I was thinking, why don't we stop filming tonight and record the dance video for you first."
The lighting and camera masters nodded one after another. They were all prepared to say so. Even the teachers in charge of setting the stage were discussing what venue Tao Mu would choose to dance in, and whether they needed help with setting up the background or something.
As a result, Mr. Tao secretly prepared the video. So disappointing.
Gou Rixin continued, "And Brother Yao and Brother Xiao Qi said they wanted to see the performance live, and even bought plane tickets to come here. They also came to visit you on set. If they knew you weren't going to dance anymore, they would definitely be very disappointed."
"That's right!" Several other female students from Beijing Film Academy also echoed, "We also said that if Tao Mu needs a dance partner, we can also help out in friendship."
Tao Mu: "..." I said, you guys have a pretty good plan, why don't you communicate with me, the client?
"I don't care! We want to see the scene!" Seeing that the plan was about to fall through, the three roommates in Dormitory 301 took the lead in making trouble, relying on their close relationship with Tao Mu. He used the thick chopsticks made by the prop master to knock on the two large bowls with two missing pieces: "We want to see dancing!"
"Dress as a woman!"
“Look at the dancing!”
"Dress as a woman!"
At the end, when the three roommates shouted to watch dancing, the entire crew followed suit and dressed up as women. It was so noisy that people who didn’t know would have thought the crew was filming a protest!
——Even when they were actually filming, I didn’t see them so energetic and full of emotions.
The key point is that Gou Rixin was still trying to imply something in a pitiful way: "I heard that Brother Yao and Brother Xiao Qi came here with Dean Tao and Old Man Song. It's winter, and they've gone through so much trouble. If they can't see the scene, they'll be so disappointed!"
"Tao Mu, do you feel embarrassed for a grown man to dress up as a woman and dance?" Wen Bao winked at Tao Mu, "Actually, you shouldn't have too much psychological burden. We as actors need to play all kinds of roles. Cross-dressing is also a part of acting. You are just experiencing it in advance at most. Besides, you have been practicing for so long. Dance for us. Let us all enjoy it. Anyway, even if you don't dance, they will watch the video online after work in the evening. By the way, will you upload the video of dancing in women's clothing tonight?"
Tao Mu glared at Wen Bao without any curiosity. He thought of what Gou Rixin had said that his family had bought plane tickets and were ready to come and see the scene. There were also the little eyes of Wen Bao and the others, who were eagerly waiting to join in the fun. He is always reluctant to disappoint the people around him who truly care about him. And in the winter, it's not easy for the family to go back and forth.
"But I haven't thought about dancing. The costumes I ordered are all in Beijing and I haven't brought them here."
This is the release!
Wen Bao and the others' eyes lit up and they immediately said, "That's easy. What place is this? H Town. There's nothing else but a lot of costumes. Just tell us what kind you want and we'll go rent it now."
"It may not fit!" Tao Mu frowned, especially for dancing. Tao Mu's outfit was custom-made by himself. Including the headgear and clothes, he spent more than 100,000 yuan!
"Then have someone send the clothes you left in Beijing over here!" Long Tianao, who had been silent, was eager to try. His eyes were so excited that they almost glowed green. "Where did you put the clothes? I'll call Xia Xing's people and ask them to pick them up now."
It’s true that people who watch a show are not afraid of the high stage!
Tao Mu looked at Long Tianao speechlessly, and simply called his old man, asking them to go to his small apartment opposite the Beijing Film Academy before rushing to the airport and bring the dancing clothes over: "...It's in the cabinet. You can see it as soon as you open the door."
When everyone saw this, they immediately clapped and cheered in anticipation. Zhou Hong asked with great interest: "What kind of scenery do you think is good? Do you want interior or exterior scenery? No matter what scenery you want, even if you want a stage, we will build it for you right away."
That's not necessary. Tao Mu looked back at the scene where the crew was filming today. The scene we are going to shoot today is after the war breaks out, when the Russians invade Shanghai. There is smoke and flames everywhere and it is a mess, but inside the concession there is singing and dancing. The Su family had already hidden in the concession in advance, but the R people who received the tip-off captured Su Dingbang who was hiding in the concession and tortured him severely to force him to rebel.
Tao Mu looked at the shooting scene, and an inspiration suddenly came to him: "No need to change. Just use this scene. By the way, let's promote our crew."
Having said that, Director Zhou Hong was still enthusiastically directing the lighting and camera crews to set up the background. Just across the street, outside there was war and chaos, but inside there was indeed feasting and singing and dancing. A dim street lamp stood quietly beside the street, emitting a dark golden light.
When Liu Yao and his gang arrived at H Town with Tao Mu's gear, it was already past seven in the evening. There was no flight at this time. They were on the Li family's private plane - yes, Li Xiaoheng, who saw the news online, also flew over.
As a result, when they arrived at the set, it started snowing. The falling snowflakes were like goose feathers, quickly covering the ground with a layer of pure white.
Tao Mu changed into a bright red costume, with a Peking Opera female role on his face, and his kingfisher-inlaid and diamond-studded headpiece swayed with his steps. Just walking quietly under the dim light, the dark golden light poured down from the top of the head, splitting the whole picture into two parts. Behind him, half was filled with war, and the other half was filled with singing and dancing. Light and darkness alternated, and life and death blended together. That indescribable but shocking feeling came over him in an instant.
The set, which had been somewhat chaotic, suddenly became quiet. The lighting and camera were all in their positions and doing their job conscientiously. Director Zhou Hong couldn't help but pick up the loudspeaker and shouted "a" himself.
A clear, melodious and extremely lingering pipa sound was heard, like a jade compass. The first thing that appeared in front of the camera was two big red sleeves put together. The arms moved slightly, and the sleeves were lifted to reveal ten slender fingers. The white fingers are reflected in the layers of sleeves, looking particularly beautiful under the light. Then she used her index finger to lift both sleeves upwards, turned around, flipped her sleeves, threw one sleeve forward and the other sleeve backwards, and at the same time, she did a somersault with her arms stretched out. The seven-foot-long red sleeves instantly bloomed like red waves.
The music paused slightly at this moment. Leave Tao Mu some time to freeze his appearance. Then came the extremely lingering sound of the pipa. Tao Mu quickly gathered his sleeves, rolled up two sleeves, turned his body at the same time, and threw his two sleeves to the side and upwards at the same time, instantly turning into rolling red waves, which bloomed wantonly in front of the dark camera.
Snowflakes are scattered everywhere, the black night sky, the dark golden lights, the red clothes and white snow are magnificent.
Tao Mu retracted his sleeves and turned around, gathering strength with his whole body, and then did another side flip. At the same time, he swung his arms, and his two red sleeves swayed and flew in the snow. The sound of the pipa sounded, and Tao Mu jumped into the air in the snow and kicked the purple gold crown upside down. The two red sleeves instantly flew up like an arrow from a bow in the night snow, as if Tao Mu was flying. Then there was another big turn, the pipa played lightly and slowly like the melodious sound of an oriole, and Tao Mu followed the music with all kinds of soft and graceful movements such as lifting sleeves, circling sleeves, lifting sleeves, and folding sleeves, just like a boudoir girl sleeping like a begonia in spring, innocent, charming and beautiful.
However, soon, as the situation deteriorated, the situation turned bad. The originally gentle and lingering sound of the pipa was now mixed with a hint of murderous intent. The sound of pipa music and the sound of spears and swords were heard. Tao Mu's dance changed from being gentle and graceful to being bold and vigorous. The original movements of hooking, lifting, circling and picking have been reduced, and the sleeves have been flicked, thrown, thrown and swung, followed by side flips, back flips and cloud gate rolls. Tao Mu was originally a stunt double, so her dancing was more explosive than that of ordinary girls. I had also learned water sleeves and whip techniques specifically for acting. At this moment, many martial arts movements and whip techniques are also integrated into this water sleeve dance. From a distance, the originally soft and graceful dance of sleeves turned out to be strong and murderous.
The dark moon follows the shadow of the sleeve, and the Hu frost brushes the sword flowers.
Everyone felt a chill in their bones listening to the sound of the pipa. If the graceful dance before only made people feel graceful and charming, then the sound of the swords and horses at this moment made people reluctant to even blink, as if their entire soul was captured by the extremely dazzling figure, their hearts pounding, and their mouths dry.
With a gunshot, the figure that was spinning rapidly under the street light suddenly fell down, and was frozen in a lying position on the snow. The night was pitch black, the lights were dim, and the woman was wearing a red dress with white snow. Two long sleeves snaked out from her feet. When the camera looked down from above, they looked like two winding bloodstains. shocking.
