Chapter 94 You are mentally ill
Since the opening up, there has been a craze for going into business.
There is also a trend of people from rural areas moving to cities to work.
After the first batch of migrant workers returned home, an even larger wave of migrant workers emerged.
And today's era is after the first batch of people returned.
The script review was the fastest of all Chen An’s films.
Now he has achieved success and fame, with the joint efforts of Xi'an Film Studio and Beijing Film Studio.
Not only was it approved quickly, but the crew was also formed right away.
After gathering the actors, the crew quickly headed north.
It was only March, early spring, and the snow in the fields had not yet completely disappeared.
The total investment was one million, with Chen An’s Light Year Media contributing 900,000 and the two production studios contributing 50,000 each.
After signing the contract, we set off to the shooting location with a large group of people.
Unfortunately, Gu Changwei is still in Jiang Wen’s crew, and the filming of "The Devils", which has been delayed for several months, has not yet been completed.
However, Chen An still grabbed Kang Xiaotian, the lighting technician, over.
This is a small village in the north, and it is also where everyone took the photos.
Uncle Ge would read the script every day, and even when the shooting was almost ready, he would still be studying the script in his arms.
"Uncle Ge, you are not possessed by a demon, right? I remember that you are not a person who practices experience." Chen An looked at Uncle Ge who was lying on the chair and muttering to himself while reading the script, and walked up to him and waved his hand.
Uncle Ge waved his hand and pushed away Chen An's outstretched hand, saying disdainfully: "Your script is so difficult, how can I not read it more carefully? You don't care about the crew's affairs but come to me to cause trouble."
"I'm afraid you've become possessed and turned into a psychopath. The experiential approach is good but it's too damaging to the actors." Chen An was really a little scared.
If a genius were to perform this kind of mental illness script, depression would probably be a minor problem, but mental problems would be a serious matter.
Uncle Ge waved his hand and said, "Get lost, you are the one who is crazy. I am just thinking about how to show the difference between reality and fantasy." He told Chen An to stop talking nonsense.
"Hahaha, well you keep thinking about it. It will start tomorrow, so you should think about it carefully first." Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the other party, Chen An also left with a smile.
Chen An plans to find a makeup artist to make the same earmuffs that the other party wore in the landlord costume in "Party A and Party B" to create a dream connection.
It's also good to let the other party think about it carefully. In his previous life, his acting skills were completely assimilated by Feng's comedy, and his previous extremism and sense of humor.
A dark sense of humor that is different from Feng's comedy.
I fell into the same trap as Jiang Wen, where whatever I acted out was a bit like myself.
There were not so many cars in that era, so Chen An converted the car repair shop into a motorcycle repair shop.
The filming started from here. The glass of the dilapidated repair shop was broken, and through the gap, Uncle Ge was repairing a motorcycle.
He was wearing a wig on his head, a beard, earmuffs behind his ears, and simple and dirty clothes. He was squatting in front of a motorcycle repairing it.
After resting for a while, he was scolded by the boss, but Uncle Ge didn't care and walked out the door with his hands in his pockets.
He just twisted left and right as he walked, and sometimes he pulled out his hands and let them hang in the air as if he had nowhere to put them.
"Cut, I passed Uncle Ge." Chen An was quite satisfied with the other party's performance that he had been thinking about for a long time.
Indicates that this item has passed.
The other party's performance is not exactly the same as in the original film. Wang Baoqiang has some special characteristics, and his image and temperament cannot be completely imitated.
However, Ge Da Ge's performance also has its merits. Unlike the former's intensity, just like hiding in the darkness at the beginning, the display of posture and temperament is not as obvious as the former.
He is more reserved and doesn't look like a mentally ill idiot at first glance, but you can still feel that something is wrong with him.
Hearing the voice, Uncle Ge stopped his performance and took off the earmuffs on his head: "You found this specially, right? I felt it was a bit familiar at first, but I figured it out later." As he spoke, he pointed to the same earmuffs as in "Party A and Party B" in his hand, but they looked a little older, and the original white fluff had turned yellowish brown.
"This is the earmuff of the landlord. However, the landlord was knocked down and it has been placed in the warehouse for some years, so it has turned yellow." Chen An looked at the other party and said with a smile.
The staff around couldn't help laughing when they heard Chen An's explanation.
The first shoot went smoothly.
Some people treat acting as a job, and Ge Da Ge is one of them. Not to mention how quickly he gets into the role, he definitely gets out of it quickly.
Just like he said, acting is just acting, you can't let yourself get caught up in it, you have to get out of it as soon as possible after filming.
However, some people view acting differently. They devote their whole self to the role, which makes it difficult for them to exit even after the performance is over. It is a bit difficult to tell who they are. Zhou Xun is one of them.
She came from a self-taught background and had no systematic training, but her innate talent allowed her to bring her character into the script, which also led to some of her past experiences.
Often after finishing a performance, she still performs the same way as before. If the character wasn't a mute girl, Chen An really felt that it was Zhang Xiaomei instead of Zhou Xun who was chatting with her.
She seemed to be in the mood even before the shooting started.
A huge fire pit rose from the flat ground, and there was no need for specific shooting, only a single shot clip was needed, in Mr. Tree's hallucination.
Mr. Shu, who saw his father accidentally hang his brother and then burn him when he was a child, happened to see this and his ordinary life took a turn.
This is a lingering shadow for him and has led to his current situation.
This fire has been burning all his life.
It can be said that Mr. Shu, who could have lived a normal life, had his life ruined by his father.
This memory is like a nightmare, lingering and ingrained into my bones.
Uncle Ge in front of the camera was looking at the fire in the distance, as if he had returned to his memory, where his father was pacing back and forth beside the burning fire.
There was a quiet and dead silence in his eyes!
But when old lady Li Mingqi quietly walked behind him, her eyes, which had been out of focus, gathered again. She took a puff of the cigarette in her hand and said angrily, "Mom, my eyes are blurry."
"What did you see? My eyes are blurry."
Uncle Ge rubbed his eyes and said, "I didn't see anything."
The previous filming went smoothly and the plot is unfolding step by step.
Mr. Shu's eyes were accidentally injured, and Duan Long, who played his younger brother, also made his official appearance.
The red banknotes that were just issued this year appeared in front of the camera, and Duan Long, the younger brother, came to pay for his brother's medical expenses.
Eventually, Mr. Shu was fired by his boss, and things gradually began to get out of control.
"Honglei, you are teasing him, not trying to scare him. Please control your momentum. Uncle Ge is insignificant in your eyes. You are just making fun of him." Chen An said to Sun Honglei while standing at the end.
The way he looked and the manner in which he spoke made it seem as if he was ordering Mr. Shu to carry a quilt and sleep in front of the gate of his factory.
"Okay director, sorry, I'll do it again." Sun Honglei nodded immediately when he was asked.
Sun Honglei, who was sitting in the middle of the dining table, looked the most ferocious, even more bandit-like than a bandit. But at this moment, he seemed reserved, nodded repeatedly, and looked a little funny.
Chen An nodded and asked the other party to adjust himself first and then continue shooting.
Sun Honglei, who failed in his first performance, seemed very restrained. It was estimated that he was not able to do well after a short adjustment, as he was still a rookie.
But Chen An was not in a hurry. It would be fine if he gave the other party a little time.
