Chapter 713 Brother Fan is so scary when he changes his face!
Li Xiaodong was released from X-STAR and also terminated his contract with Baitao Entertainment, and officially signed with Lin Fan's Earthling Studio.
And the various comedy scripts that Lin Fan had been piling up for almost a year could finally start filming!
So right after Li Xiaodong signed the contract with Yang Hongxia, he was taken to the Shanghai Film and Television Base by Lin Fan. He didn't even have time to rest and adapt, and went straight to the crew for filming.
However, although Lai Siu-tung had just become an insider, the script had already been given to him to read carefully. For this role, Lai Siu-tung even searched the Internet for countless comedy movies and made up for his lessons for several months.
Privately, Lai Siu-tung also asked his agent to arrange an acting teacher for him so that he could improve his acting skills before the official filming began.
The effect, as verified by Lin Fan himself, is quite good.
Yes, that’s right, Lin Fan used Lai Siu-tung to polish the camera again.
There's no way, Lai Siu-tung is just too handy to use, and in this comedy, the other actors are all professionally trained, they just aren't famous, and using them to polish the shots probably wouldn't achieve Lin Fan's goal.
So Li Xiaodong can only be wronged again and be the poor little one.
Fortunately, Lai Siu-tung is thick-skinned and even thicker-skinned. What's more rare is that he has a very good mentality. Generally, artists who come out of the idol industry, if they want to act in comedies or something, can't help but let go of the inexplicable idol baggage, and they always pay attention to whether their shots look good, and so on.
But Lai Siu-tung is not like that. When he wants to be an idol, he really exudes the feeling of "I am born to be an idol" from the bottom of his heart. And when Lai Siu-tung wants to be a comedian, he really lets go of everything.
I have to say that this self-hypnosis ability is also amazing.
But the effect is also significant.
The last time Lin Fan used Lai Siu-tung to polish the shots on the set of "A Chinese Ghost Story", it took him a long time to get them to pass. But now, Lai Siu-tung only took ten takes and got them to pass. This is a huge improvement.
When Lin Fan said "passed", Li Xiaodong got down from the table and came up to him happily: "Brother Fan, how is my acting? Have I improved recently? Have I met your expectations?"
Lin Fan said as he watched the footage being played on the surveillance screen, "It's OK, just a little formulaic, but for our current film, it's good enough."
But if you want to play other roles, you will have to work harder and hone your skills.
However, there is no need to say such things in public, and Lin Fan believes that Li Xiaodong himself knows the situation. After all, Yang Hongxia has never made a mistake in judging people.
Lai Siu-tung also saw his own performance on the surveillance screen. Acting is something that is very intuitive. If it is good, it is good; if it is bad, it is bad. It cannot be changed by fans controlling comments or whitewashing the performance.
So Li Xiaodong took Lin Fan's words to heart and decided to use all his free time to learn how to act after filming. He must not lose face for Brother Fan! Today was the first day of the crew's work. The task was not heavy. In addition, Lin Fan was in charge and Li Xiaodong performed well, so today's filming task was completed at five o'clock in the afternoon.
Lin Fan didn't have the habit of making people work overtime without reason. Since the filming task was completed, they could just call it a day and let others do what they were supposed to do. Lin Fan took Li Xiaodong to visit the crew next door.
The people they are investigating are not others, but their own people, Zhou Xiang and Lu Bingyang, who respectively play the male and female protagonists of this youth film.
To be honest, this is the first time that Lu Bingyang has been offered the role of the male lead in a movie!
The script was written by Lin Fan himself. When his agent brought the invitation letter and asked him to audition for the role, Lu Bingyang couldn't believe it. In the end, he got the role of the male lead and even thought that Lin Fan had opened a backdoor for him.
Of course, Lin Fan actually had a little backdoor.
The requirements for acting skills for the male lead in a youth film are not high. Lu Bingyang's acting skills are just enough, and there are two other male actors who passed the test with Lu Bingyang. But between an unknown artist and Lu Bingyang, Lin Fan would of course choose someone he is familiar with!
Although Lin Fan thinks this is human nature, why use a stranger when there is an acquaintance? But if Lu Bingyang thinks this is a preferential treatment, Lin Fan will not deny it.
The progress here is also very encouraging.
The filming of a campus youth movie is not difficult at all. As long as the actors have good acting skills, it is easy to shoot.
Needless to say, Zhou Xiang is a person who has a professional background in acting and is very talented in acting. She has also played countless supporting roles in various major crews and has received guidance from many seniors, intentionally or unintentionally. Now this role is too easy for her.
Lu Bingyang's acting skills are also acceptable. He has also filmed several dramas in the past two years. Although his experience is not rich, it is at least enough to deal with most situations. With Zhou Xiang's guidance in the play, the filming progress naturally progressed by leaps and bounds and was extremely smooth.
When Lin Fan came over, the two were discussing the script with their heads down. When they heard the staff greet Lin Fan, they quickly looked up and stood up: "Brother Fan!"
"Brother Fan, you are here!"
Lin Fan and Li Xiaodong came over: "How was it, did the shoot go smoothly?"
Zhou Xiang assured: "Brother Fan, don't worry, I will never let you down!"
Lu Bingyang also said: "I won't be a drag either."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"I also believe that you won't let me down. By the way, Li Xiaodong's crew is right next door, so please take care of each other. If there is anything you can't solve, just call Sister Xia."
As for Lin Fan himself, he really didn't have time to care too much.
The company has four projects underway: The Butterfly Lovers starring Lin Fan and Xia Yan, two variety shows in cooperation with Emperor TV, a comedy by Lai Siu-tung, and a youth film with Zhou Xiang and Lu Bingyang. Lin Fan really can't spare the time, so he has to be personally responsible for each one.
You can only participate in some more important occasions or nodes to control the overall situation. Other matters should be assigned to other people in the company.
But even so, he was still very busy. Apart from anything else, Lin Fan had only come to see Zhou Xiang's movie once when it started filming, and this time he just came to see what was going on.
By the way, he asked the three of them to take care of each other. If the two dramas could be completed quietly according to the shooting plan without any problems, it would really help Lin Fan a lot.
Lin Fan had to rush to Emperor Television tomorrow, so not only could he not take care of Zhou Xiang, he couldn't even stay with Li Xiaodong for long.
Lai Siu-tung patted his chest loudly and said, "Brother Fan, just focus on your important work. I can't say anything else, but we will definitely not slack off on filming."
Lin Fan was very pleased: "I believe you!"
After being pleased, Lin Fan, the studio tyrant, went online and personally checked several important shots shot today, and then announced: "Reshoot these shots!"
Zhou Xiang + Lu Bingyang were trembling with fear: Brother Fan, who changes his face at any time, is so scary!
