Chapter 4
Although Hua Ze was drafted by Wang Yiming to be the leading actor and seemed to be just a rich second-generation who didn't care much about anything, deep down in his heart, he actually wanted to be an actor.
He likes the feeling of standing in the spotlight and being admired by millions of people.
Moreover, to be honest, he also knows that he is not bad in terms of conditions. Although he has the appearance of a pretty boy, he has been practicing Taekwondo since he was a child, and his every move is quite masculine. He has the kind of contrasting personality that is popular in the entertainment industry nowadays.
However, he also knew that he did not have much acting skills, otherwise he would not be willing to practice in Wang Yiming's short play. What surprised him was that the script was indeed good, and he did not want to miss this opportunity.
Becoming an action star has always been his dream, and for this purpose he even went to Hong Kong to learn from martial arts masters.
But it is true that I have not mastered the skills well, after all, it is not something that can be acquired overnight.
He thought that his tricks were enough to deal with Wang Yiming, but he didn't expect that Wang Yiming, a half-baked director, would be dissatisfied with his performance.
It would be fine if you were just dissatisfied, but you actually planned to change the role on the spot?
Of course he was dissatisfied.
But the first time I saw this newcomer, I felt that he was really suitable for the role in the play.
This repressive temperament is so similar.
If you look closely at this man's appearance, you can see that he has a dangerous aura but also a toughness, which is quite similar to the good-evil character of Mr. Xie Xfeng in Hong Kong martial arts movies.
Plus this muscle...
Some actors have great contrasts in different dramas and are very adaptable to their roles, while some people are born to play a certain type of role, and the one in front of us obviously belongs to the latter.
However, Huaze comes from a good family after all, and it is not reasonable for him to be replaced just because someone tells him to. That is why he comes here to find fault, hoping to make the other party give up.
After hearing Huaze's words, A'mo looked at him sinisterly, tensed his arms, and the smooth and strong muscle lines instantly stood out.
Although he is fond of martial arts, he has been in the underworld with A Da for so many years after all, and he will not be easily provoked into doing extreme things by such provocation.
After all, if he was the only one here, he would probably just fight.
But after all, A'da is here, he has to keep the situation under control and not cause any trouble for A'da.
But just tensing his arms twice, coupled with that intimidating look, was enough to make Huaze regret coming up to cause trouble.
Qiao Yi Qiao was satisfied with A'mo's reaction. He patted A'mo's shoulder gently and signaled him to relax.
Then, without saying anything, he looked around and took a weight belt for pull-ups next to him.
After this belt is tied around the waist, there is a chain underneath to increase the weight.
Qiao Yi Qiao picked up two 20kg barbell plates next to him and tied them to A'mo.
Huaze was a little stunned at this time.
It's amazing that this big guy can still walk freely after tying up 40kg!
But what surprised him even more was the next scene——
Qiao Yiqiao pointed to the pear ball high in the distance and ordered A'mo: "Kick it."
A'mo nodded and immediately kicked the pear in the air, sending it flying.
Then, the second leg, the third leg...
Only after he lost count of how many times he did that Qiao Yi Qiao finally shouted "Stop".
He was very confident in his son A'mo's martial arts level. Although he used some tricks to help A'mo grab the position of an actor in fighting scenes, he had this confidence because A'mo was really suitable for the role.
Before the age of 13, A'mo had not received any systematic training, and his underground boxing was supported only by instinct and the desire to survive.
But after being recruited by him, Qiao Yi Qiao found various martial arts masters to teach A'mo.
Ah Mo was born to do this job. He learned very quickly. Within a few years, he had a thorough understanding of all types of martial arts on the market.
After A'mo kicked in the air, he landed steadily, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his body, and he was only breathing slightly.
Huaze forgot to control his facial expression for a moment, his mouth slightly open, like a fool.
Wang Yiming clapped his hands vigorously, and the fat on his face swayed rhythmically: "Too good, this skill is really too hard..."
Moreover, why did he feel that this person looked better when exercising and sweating after exercise?
The more I look at it, the more I like it!
A'mo looked at Huaze, and Qiao Yiqiao also looked at Huaze, wanting to see how he would react.
Hua Ze held it in for a long time, then suddenly bowed: "Senior! Please teach me martial arts!"
Qiao Yiqiao: “…”
A man who can bend and stretch himself is a real man!
Qiao Yiqiao said righteously: "Sure, but that's a different price."
…
After this little episode, Huaze voluntarily gave up his position and took on the role of one of the younger brothers.
The shooting continues.
Ah Mo was nervous.
In order to make money and let Ah Da live a good life, he is naturally willing to do anything.
Besides, filming a movie sounded much easier than fighting underground boxing. He was also grateful in his heart for finding this way out for him.
But... he really doesn't have any experience.
Because they were so familiar with each other, Qiao Yiqiao knew what Ah Mo was thinking, so he said to him: "Just behave normally, and then restrain yourself a little."
Amer nodded.
In the first shot, facing three opponents rushing towards him at the same time, he clenched his fists and attacked.
Just as he was about to make his move, Qiao Yi Qiao suddenly remembered something and rushed onto the stage.
"Bang——" a loud noise echoed throughout the venue.
For the first time in his life, Huaze felt so close to death.
He could see A'mer's sandbag-sized fist rushing towards him at a rapid speed, and could even vaguely hear the sound of a sonic boom.
But what made him even more desperate was that, although his brain realized that he would probably die from this punch, his body was unable to move.
Fortunately, just when the punch was about to hit him, a pair of equally large hands appeared and blocked the fist in front of him.
Wang Yiming looked at Qiao Yiqiao who suddenly rushed onto the stage and was a little confused: "What's going on?"
Qiao Yiqiao shook his aching hand and said to Wang Yiming, "I'm sorry, I'll give him a few more instructions."
Although he had prepared the moves in advance, he estimated that his own A'mo would be fatal as usual. Fortunately, he saw him rushing onto the stage and restrained his strength, otherwise he might not be able to handle it.
Wang Yiming had no temper when facing talented people. Although he was the director and the most important person on the scene, he still said in a muffled voice: "Okay. Are you done?"
Qiao Yiqiao whispered in A'mo's ear: "You can't really fight."
A'Mo scratched his head, not understanding.
"We are filming a movie, you know?" Qiao Yiqiao thought for a moment, "Just imagine that they are all me, and when they fight with me, is it all fake?"
Amer nodded.
All right.
In fact, he didn't hold back when he was fighting with Ah Da.
Qiao Yiqiao was still worried: "Just use half the strength you normally use when you fight me, and don't really hit him in the face, hit him on the side, where the camera can't see, understand?"
"good."
A'mo is not stupid. He reacted and did as he was told.
Qiao Yi Qiao walked down the stage, looking back every few steps.
Seeing this, Wang Yiming shouted to the stage: "Let's do it again!"
Several people got back into the state.
The three men ran towards A'mo again, and then A'mo swung his fist.
Bang——!
Hua Ze covered his face in disbelief.
"You... hit me!"
Wang Yiming looked helpless: "What happened again?"
Hua Ze looked aggrieved: "My master hit me!"
That hit him hard in the face!
Qiao Yi Qiao held his forehead with his hand in the audience, looking helpless.
In fact, A'mo had already avoided the other person's face, and only the back of his hand rubbed Huaze's face, but this was painful enough for an ordinary person.
Wang Yiming had no choice but to go up and tell the play to everyone again.
But in the next few shoots, either A'mo hit Huaze, or Huaze was afraid of being hit by A'mo and hid too far away, which looked too fake.
After shooting several times, Wang Yiming felt a little tired.
A'mo was also a little helpless. He couldn't use his fists and feet at all and felt very frustrated.
This is not as fun as fighting underground boxing.
Qiao Yi Qiao felt a little distressed when he saw A'mo's expression.
The last time he saw A'mo like this was when he took A'mo to learn how to drive. Although A'mo was in good health, he had a headache when it came to driving a car. He couldn't park the car steadily in the small garage.
At that time, A'mo also shook his head and sighed at the car every day.
How did you finally break through?
That’s right!
Learn to drive!
Qiao Yi Qiao suddenly had an idea. He found a roll of red tape in the venue and stuck it on the ring.
Wang Yiming was puzzled: "Brother Qiao, what are you doing?"
Qiao Yiqiao waved to A'mo and Huaze: "Look, this route is A'mo's attack route, and this is Huaze's evasive route. Then change the action a little bit. A'mo's first punch should be from bottom to top, and his eyes should be fixed on the dumbbell in the distance. Huaze, you just need to dodge to the right..."
In the end, A'mo got his driver's license by using this "positioning" method. He didn't expect that it could also be used during filming.
Wang Yiming's eyes lit up instantly: "Yes, why didn't I think of this method?"
When they were learning to be directors, they would often use things like tape to arrange the movement lines and fixed points when arranging the actors' movements, but they unexpectedly forgot all about this practical operation.
A'mo and Huaze rehearsed several times, and indeed, their movements became much more accurate after they memorized the route.
Wang Yiming looked at Qiao Yiqiao with admiration on his face: "That's amazing. I didn't expect Brother Qiao also studied directing?"
Qiao Yiqiao thought to himself that this was not the result of studying directing, but rather the wisdom gained from being fucked by life (and the driving test).
However, when arranging the movement lines, Qiao Yiqiao also had some new ideas, so he said to Wang Yiming: "How about changing the shots a little bit? If we arrange two subjective shots at the beginning, and then a relationship shot with the shoulder on the right, this can not only enhance the sense of substitution, but also avoid these lines on the ground to avoid mistakes."
and.
My son A-Mo has a small scar on his right eyebrow, which looks very nice.
Wang Yiming followed Qiao Yiqiao's arrangement and tried it out. The effect was so good that he laughed while staring at the monitor.
Even without the rich lighting and camera movement, this shot is good enough.
It was much better than he had imagined!
Then Qiao Yi Qiao re-applied the tape and arranged the fixed point for the second shot.
Wang Yiming looked at Qiao Yiqiao busying himself and suddenly thought, "Brother Qiao, why don't you try directing the next few shots?"
When asked this question, Qiao Yi Qiao was stunned.
In his heart, the word "director" still has a sacred status.
He? Can he be a director?
"I can't do it." Qiao Yi Qiao shook his head subconsciously.
Wang Yiming pointed to the line on the ground: "But you are already doing it."
Before Qiao Yi Qiao could react, Wang Yiming had already pushed him in front of the monitor.
"Really, Brother Qiao, you give it a try. It's just a short play anyway, and there are only a dozen shots in the first episode. If it doesn't work, I'll do it again."
Qiao Yi Qiao wanted to stand up, but when he saw the picture on the monitor, he couldn't move his legs.
The dark boxing gym scene in reality looks a little fake, like an IKEA model room, but when viewed on the monitor everything is gray, and it feels particularly real.
Moreover, he thought he was already very familiar with A'mo, but he didn't expect that this kid looked very... good-looking on the monitor.
With broad shoulders, a small face and concentrated facial features, he is truly born with a camera-friendly face.
"How is it?" Wang Yiming was also happy and relaxed, "Director Qiao?"
Qiao Yiqiao nodded.
He didn't know why, but he didn't want to leave here.
He suppressed the joy and excitement in his heart, picked up the monitoring headset next to him, and shouted to the ring for the first time in his life: "First time for a three-shot match, start."
…
Although Qiao Yiqiao changed a lot of shots, the first scene was shot quickly because of his efficient direction and arrangement.
In the next two days, they finished shooting the remaining shots of the first episode. The group of people worked better and better together, and their efficiency also increased.
The script of the first episode is also mainly based on fighting scenes. Only at the very end does A'mo look back and see the fragile figure of the heroine with a look of surprise, which serves as the final hook.
Only at that last look did Qiao Yi Qiao give some guidance to A'mo again.
This kid has not yet developed feelings for love, so Qiao Yiqiao just asked him to imagine the sympathetic expression he had when he saw a puppy eating poop when he was in the organization.
Although the final result was only mediocre, it was A-Mo's first time acting after all, so we can't expect too much.
What's more, for this short play, it would be a complete success if it could do a good job with the fighting scenes in the front.
Qiao Yiqiao believes that the strengths are long enough, and the weaknesses... let them be short.
Finally, when Wang Yiming transferred the total of 6,500 yuan to Qiao Yiqiao, he was reluctant to part with it: "I really hope we can continue to cooperate."
Qiao Yiqiao took the money and nodded: "Yes."
Sincerely.
Not only was he paid, but Wang Yiming also reimbursed his meals and travel expenses.
Who can not love the silly rich second generation?
Micro short dramas are filmed, edited and broadcast one episode at a time.
The subsequent filming will be decided based on the broadcast performance of the current episode.
Wang Yiming planned to go home and supervise the editing, but before leaving, he suddenly remembered something and said to Qiao Yiqiao, "Brother Qiao, if you and A'mo like this and want to do this, why don't you go to the film and television city in Heng City? There are more opportunities there."
Film and television city?
Qiao Yiqiao was not sure: "We have never studied it, and we don't have much experience, is it okay?"
Wang Yiming actually just heard it from others, and he was not sure, but he still smiled and said, "How can we know if we don't try it?"
After saying goodbye to Wang Yiming and his group, the thought of "going to the film and television city" kept lingering in Qiao Yi Qiao's mind.
When he got home, after Qiao Yi Qiao finished making the rotten meat noodles for A'mo, he was still thinking about this matter.
It's not impossible for him to go, but he definitely can't let A'mo go alone, he has to accompany him.
But it takes more than four hours to go back and forth every day. Although his father left behind a car, it is a manual transmission and both of them are terrible at driving, so commuting is the first big problem.
Moreover, food outside is so expensive, and A'mo needs to supplement enough protein. How can he get meals every day?
How to contact the crew, how to audition, how to deal with people... there are many difficulties.
Qiao Yiqiao knew that although he was good at dealing with people, the film and television industry was a brand new challenge after all.
Does he really want to take A'mo down this path?
Headache.
Ah Mo felt very uncomfortable when he saw the state of his own Ah Da.
He really wanted to go to the film and television city to make money, but he also knew that he couldn't live without Ah Da now, and he couldn't share Ah Da's worries...
Otherwise, he should just go and fight underground boxing, at least he can do it on his own.
He doesn't care about violating laws or committing crimes, as long as A-Da can live a good life.
Besides, there are so many people whose reputations have collapsed now. If they enter the film and television industry, wouldn’t they also go down the path of breaking the law and committing crimes?
It’s better for you to go first.
The two were eating the noodles with rotten meat in silence when suddenly there were two knocks on the door.
A'mo picked up the steel pipe placed beside him, and Qiao Yiqiao also picked up the knife.
Who is looking for me? Is it an enemy?
But before they got close to the gate, they heard a cry coming from outside.
"Boss! A'mo! Are you guys in there? We finally found you~~~~"!
