Chapter 350 It doesn’t matter how many bowls of noodles you eat
Yu Xiaoshu is the director.
This is totally unacceptable to everyone.
You have to know that for "Let the Bullets Fly", basically everyone takes this movie very seriously. Basically everyone takes this movie very seriously.
At the beginning, everyone thought that the director of "Let the Bullets Fly" should be a capable, competent, or even a well-known director in the circle.
How could I have imagined the result?
Yu Xiaoshu is the director.
Everyone felt that there was something wrong with this.
Qi Pengfei frowned slightly: "Xiaoshu, do you mean you will direct this play?"
"Yes, Mr. Qi, I told you before that I think I am the most suitable person for this play."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded gently and said, "I wrote the script, so I know every character in this play best, and more importantly, I am the only one who knows how to play each character."
Ning Fan said, "Xiao Shu, screenwriting and directing are two different things, and you haven't studied directing, so I'm still a little worried about your ability."
Not only Ning Fan, but also Guo Zeqiang and others are the same.
Yu Xiaoshu laughed and said, "I know this, so I asked Li Qing to be the assistant director. Secondly, today's script seminar is to discuss this matter. Teachers, don't rush to shoot your scenes. I will shoot a group scene first. After this scene is finished, you can see if I have the ability to do it?"
There is nothing wrong with saying this.
Moreover, Ning Fan, Guo Zeqiang, Zhong Xiu and others didn't say anything more at this time.
Obviously, although they did not believe in Yu Xiaoshu, they had signed the contract with the crew. As the saying goes, everything should be based on real ability.
While they were discussing the script of "Let the Bullets Fly", the outside media reports on "Let the Bullets Fly" went a step further.
Although everyone doesn't know why the filming of "Let the Bullets Fly" was kept secret, they know that some of the actors must be of very high status.
In that case, wouldn't it be enough to just dig these actors out?
But let’s be honest, how easy is it to dig out these actors?
So after a day, the media gave up.
"I think that 'Let the Bullets Fly' is definitely a smokescreen. I don't believe the cast here can be that strong."
"Yes, I think so too. For me, it is not easy to distinguish whether the cast is strong or not."
"That's right. How many actors can Baiqian Media have for Let the Bullets Fly? They can't possibly get an award-winning actor."
"Actually, if you think about it carefully, taking Yu Xiaoshu's case as an example, I think it's mostly actors from TV dramas who come to film. If you don't believe me, look at those actors, aren't they all actors from TV dramas?"
…
Obviously, everyone really can't figure out what else Yu Xiaoshu can come up with.
To be honest, based on what we know about Yu Xiaoshu, it is impossible for those movie actors to use him.
But it's just the opposite.
What no one expected was that Yu Xiaoshu actually invited the best actor and best actress.
Yes.
How convincing would it be to only invite actors from TV dramas?
What Yu Xiaoshu wants to do is to let the actors of the TV series and the actors of the movie compete with each other.
Let them create sparks on their own.
Yu Xiaoshu said to everyone, "For this first scene, we are going to shoot a climax of the whole play, which is the incident of Liuzi eating a few bowls of noodles."
It can be said that this is a climax of the whole play.
How many bowls of noodles Liuzi ate became a hot topic of discussion.
Someone once said that besides cutting out his own stomach and taking out the powder, what else can Liuzi do to prove it? ?
According to the movie, Liuzi had actually fallen into a trap, and it didn’t matter how many bowls of noodles he ate, and the so-called trial was not important either.
If Zhang Mazi was here, he would certainly not care about anything.
But Liuzi was simple after all, and even a little stubborn, so he chose the most radical method, which also made Zhang Mazi and Huang Silang fall into a life-and-death struggle.
For other people, they just want money, even revenge for Liuzi is for money, but Zhang Mazi is not like that. He wants to kill Huang Silang to avenge Liuzi.
When analyzing this scene, Qi Pengfei, Ning Fan and Guo Zeqiang were all a little surprised.
You know, it is often group dramas that test a director's skills.
Moreover, there are actually a lot of group scenes in "Let the Bullets Fly". The group scene of Huang Silang entering the city is very interesting, the group scene of suppressing bandits is even more interesting, and the group scene of Liu Zi committing seppuku to take out powder is even more interesting.
In this drama, the two who really stood out were Hu Wan and Wu Juren. It can be said that the two of them worked together to trick Liuzi.
Especially the character of Hu Wan.
In the original movie, the factory beauty who played this role really showed the cunning of a small person, and since Yu Xiaoshu was preparing to guest star in this role, he must have done a lot of homework.
First of all, it is impossible for him to act as rigidly as the factory beauty.
Secondly, the character of Hu Wan is actually quite interesting.
He is Huang Silang's dog, and the most loyal dog at that. Just think about the fact that Huang Silang was reluctant to kill him and let him fake his death, and you will know his importance.
And Hu Wan's death was also miserable.
He probably never thought until his death that Zhang Mazi would actually kill him.
Fortunately, he thought Zhang Mazi would let him go.
This character can be said to be ruthless and unscrupulous. Just think about the fact that many people under his command have died. What's more important is that Hu Wan also helped Huang Silang to do a lot of bad things.
The reason why Yu Xiaoshu guest-starred in this role was that he wanted to try his hand at being a bad guy, and secondly, he also wanted to test his own abilities.
All in all, Yu Xiaoshu wants to play this role well.
He had even asked his acting teacher specific questions about the crew, such as how he should move and how he should perform.
Precisely because he had done in-depth research, Yu Xiaoshu was now quite familiar with it.
"Everyone take a break today, and we'll start filming tomorrow."
Yu Xiaoshu said to everyone.
Others were worried, but some also wanted to see how Yu Xiaoshu would end up tomorrow.
Before leaving, Qi Pengfei said to Yu Xiaoshu: "Xiaoshu, don't let me down."
Yu Xiaoshu said: "Teacher Qi, don't worry."
Ning Fan and Guo Zeqiang looked at Yu Xiaoshu and said nothing.
Apparently, the two were going to see what was happening tomorrow.
As for Bao Nan, she didn't leave. She smiled and said to Yu Xiaoshu, "Shall we go for a walk together?"
"good."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded slightly.
As for Zhou Xiaozhi who was standing aside, she did not step forward. She finally bit her lip and left alone.
“Xiaoshu, are you feeling stressed?”
Bao Nan asked Yu Xiaoshu, "Honestly, when I think about the cast of this movie, I feel stressed. I'm wondering how I should act with them."
"There's no pressure. In fact, I've been waiting for such an opportunity. Remember I told you that I would make you a superstar? And although I think there is no difference between TV series and movies, I can't let you be trapped in TV series forever. It's just right that this time you can have a good release in the movie."
Yu Xiaoshu shook his head slightly and said, "How can we not have any pressure in our line of work? I had no pressure when I was a screenwriter because I knew how to write the script, but when I became a director, I naturally had pressure."
Yes.
This is the truth.
Yu Xiaoshu didn't really feel much pressure when he was a screenwriter. On the one hand, Yu Xiaoshu only needed to move the scripts. On the other hand, some of the scripts needed to be split up by Yu Xiaoshu himself, but some did not need to be split up.
What kind of pressure can there be in such a situation?
The fact that Yu Xiaoshu has written so many scripts in more than a year speaks volumes.
But being a director is different.
During this year or so, Yu Xiaoshu did not just write some scripts. On the contrary, he also read some books about directors and, when he was on the crew, he also specifically looked at how others filmed.
It can be said that Yu Xiaoshu's decision to become a director was not a whim. On the contrary, he spent a year learning and progressed step by step.
You said that you have accumulated so much experience for a long time and now you can finally direct. What pressure do you feel?
No pressure.
Only motivation.
Bao Nan didn't say anything else. What she liked was actually Yu Xiaoshu's confidence.
Yu Xiaoshu has never lost his confidence.
kindness.
That's it.
I walked around with Bao Nan and chatted with him about some issues, including the role played by Bao Nan.
"Your scene will not be filmed tomorrow. It will start filming in half a month. However, you have to study on the set for the past half month. At the same time, you must thoroughly understand the role of Sister Hua."
Yu Xiaoshu gave his final reminder.
Sister Hua is a rather contradictory character. Some people even say that Sister Hua is the biggest winner.
But no matter which one it is, this character is very charming.
In the original time and space, the actress who played Sister Hua was none other than Director Jiang’s wife, who can be considered quite good and was able to bring out the diversity of Sister Hua.
This character is not simple.
Precisely because of their complexity, Sister Hua was able to corrupt Zhang Mazi's people in an instant, and in the end, these people even left with Sister Hua.
How to say? ?
This proves that Sister Hua has her own ways. If you don’t look closely, you will think that Sister Hua is just a careless person. But then again, can a careless person gain the trust of Huang Silang?
And looking at the tone of voice that Sister Hua used when talking to Huang Silang, it was really not innocent at all.
Just as it doesn’t matter how many bowls of noodles Liuzi eats, it doesn’t matter whether Sister Hua is good or evil.
What needs to be done next is to let Bao Nan think carefully and not act according to past experience.
In this regard, Bao Nan needs to think more and more.
After chatting with Bao Nan, Yu Xiaoshu shook his head secretly while walking in the scenic area.
It’s only a few hours now and the lights in the scenic area have already been turned off.
No one.
I couldn't even bear to turn on the lights.
"Let's go back."
Yu Xiaoshu shook his head and said, "This scenic spot is indeed not crowded right now, but believe me, after our "Let the Bullets Fly" is released, this scenic spot will definitely be packed with people."
As soon as Yu Xiaoshu finished speaking, someone suddenly said, "You are not very young, but you are boasting a lot."
"ah."
The sudden sound startled Bao Nan.
Yu Xiaoshu also looked into the darkness.
It turned out to be a security guard.
"Uncle, you're scary. You're scary to death."
Yu Xiaoshu said speechlessly: "Aren't they all off work?"
The security guard was a middle-aged man in his 50s. He shook his head and said, "It's time to get off work. Let me check again. You don't know that some children sometimes come in to play. Last time, one of them almost drowned."
Yu Xiaoshu took a look and said, "Are there no cameras in this scenic area?"
"Where are the cameras? Who's in charge? And the organizer stopped paying their salaries a long time ago. Well, I'm just from the village next door. I'll just keep watch. After all, we can't let any kids get into trouble."
The security guard looked at Yu Xiaoshu and said, "I know you are here to shoot a movie, but it's useless. What's there to do in this shabby place? If I were someone else, I wouldn't come either."
Yu Xiaoshu laughed: "Uncle, that's not the way to say it. Playing is just about going from one place to another, so many times the places you find disgusting may be good for others..."
"You intellectuals are just hypocritical when you talk. Forget it, I'll look somewhere else. Remember to go back early. It's dark here, and no one will care if something happens to you."
The security guard glanced at Yu Xiaoshu and finally said, "I tell you, even though there are no cameras, it's not safe here either. If you have any problems, go back to the hotel."
Yu Xiaoshu: “???”
Uncle, you really have a lot of ideas.
Just like that, Yu Xiaoshu and Bao Nan went straight back to the hotel.
After all, if something really happens, there is really no way to explain it.
Of course, before returning to the hotel, the two of them had something to eat together.
What Yu Xiaoshu didn't expect was that as soon as he entered the room, there was a knock on the door.
When he opened the door and saw Zhou Xiaozhi, Yu Xiaoshu was stunned: "Why are you still not asleep so late?"
"I can't sleep, I want to talk to you."
Zhou Xiaozhi said.
"Okay then, come in."
Yu Xiaoshu asked Zhou Xiaozhi to come in directly, and then asked: "What's wrong?"
After all, Zhou Xiaozhi is an artist of Baiqian Media, so she was not allowed to bring a manager. And from the tone of Zhou Xiaozhi, could it be that she couldn't sleep in a different place? ?
Zhou Xiaozhi shook his head and said, "I was mainly thinking about my own role."
"Don't think too much about it, you're just making a cameo appearance."
Yu Xiaoshu laughed and said, "After a while, I will shoot a movie and let you play the leading female role. I want you to be in this movie just to see how these real acting talents act."
This is Yu Xiaoshu’s real plan.
There aren't many opportunities to learn acting from movie stars.
