Chapter 260 Teacher Fan's Extracurricular Tutoring Class Has Started

Although "Famous" has certain suspense elements, the whole movie has a lot of comedy.

Especially in the early stage, the jokes are quite dense, and there are many movie jokes and complaints. It tells the story of the Republic of China, but in fact it also contains some of the current film circles.

The early plot is very simple. [Down and Out Tycoon] Lu Ye (Jiang Wu) invites [Screenwriter] Jiahui (Wei Yang), [The King of Bad Movies Director] Zheng Dao (Wang Pangzi), [Old Drama] Guan Lao Shi (Ge Da Ye), [Vase Queen] Mengdie (Fan Xiaopang), [Hollywood Extra] Ada (Wu Jing) to gather in a mansion to prepare to make a movie.

Although these people look down on each other and even have a little hatred, they have their own difficulties. Under the matchmaking of Tycoon Lu Ye, they decided to cooperate.

Tycoon Lu Ye made an extraordinary move and planned to directly shoot the [Three Old Cases] that had previously shocked Shanghai and even the whole country.

The three most famous bosses in Shanghai, who were in charge of finance, shipping, and industry, were killed in a secret room overnight. With the popularity and influence of this case, it would definitely be a big profit if it was made into a movie.

In addition, tycoon Lu even invited the parties involved in the case [murderer] Qi Leshan (Duan Long) and [rookie policeman] Dahai (Lin Gengxin).

Although everyone was a little surprised, they were excited and enthusiastic about the murderer's participation in the creation, which would be more gimmicky. They were ready to "become famous" with this movie.

Because there had been rehearsals before, the plot and lines had been rehearsed several times.

So when the official shooting started, the director and the actors had a general idea, and the progress was relatively smooth.

In the early stage of "Twinkle Twinkle Star" and "Eastern Palace", Wei Yang was worried about Liu Shishi and Nazha's performance every day. "Celebrating Yu Nian" also had to keep an eye on various actors.

Only this time when filming "Becoming Famous", he enjoyed the blessing of being a hands-off boss.

Except for Lin Gengxin and Wu Jing, he didn't have to worry about other actors at all.

If there is a mistake, he will correct it immediately or even change the way of acting. Sometimes, the level and consideration of the actor's performance are more than what he originally required.

Wei Yang once again understood why big directors like to gather a group of powerful actors to film together.

Comfortable, worry-free, and pleasing to the eyes!

Wei Yang was even a little glad that he did not choose Liu Tianxian, otherwise he would spend every day on her. Unlike now, although Fan Xiaopang is not as comfortable as Ge Da Ye, he does not need to worry too much.

In contrast, Wei Yang pays the most attention to himself in terms of acting.

He has a private tutoring, and has written tens of thousands of words for the character biography alone. He often consults Ge Da Ye in private, and even secretly, he drags Fan Xiaopang to act.

Fan Xiaopang is convinced!

Wei Yang secretly knocked on the door and entered her room at night. She thought that this dog man was pretending to be serious on the surface, and could not resist her charm in private. She was proud of herself, but it turned out that he came to practice acting with her.

They really acted in accordance with the plot, and Wei Yang also asked her to play other roles to achieve interaction.

Fan Xiaopang, who just celebrated his 30th birthday, has never encountered such a weirdo in his life.

But despite complaining, Fan Xiaopang still chose to help Wei Yang. Of course, Boss Wei had to pay for his services.

It's precious, hundreds of millions at a time...

With Wei Yang's private hard work and efforts, he has become more and more familiar with the role of [screenwriter], and has a deep understanding of other actors and roles.

After all, Wei Yang is a professional actor with certain acting experience, and he is also a good actor among young actors.

Understand the role, the plot, and even the role of the opponent, practice more, and with the help of the "director", you can reshoot if you are not satisfied.

Boss Wei thinks that he can still barely reach the average level of the crew, at least not to be the one that the movie is beaten.

On the set, the staff are constantly adjusting, especially the lighting and photography are the busiest.

Most of the plot of "Famous" takes place in one night, so most of the movie is in the dark.

But during filming, it is impossible to let the actors stay up all night to shoot at night. Even if they can stay up all night, there is not enough time at night, so we have to use the early morning and evening when the sunlight is not sufficient to achieve daytime shooting and night scenes.

Sometimes, due to weather, time and other reasons, the lighting will also have an impact.

The movie is a thing that happens in one night or even dozens of minutes. Many things have to be roughly fixed, so once there is a change, the photography and lighting have to be changed.

After the set was arranged, the Blue Whale director Zhang Yongxin, who served as the executive director, took the camera and the actors took their positions.

This scene is about the murderer's identity being exposed. After everyone panicked, they reached a consensus and began to question the murderer and dig deep into the details.

The screenwriter played by Wei Yang is responsible for the script creation, so he is naturally the main force in questioning.

Although the screenwriter Jiahui has a personality that hates evil, he is a literati after all. Facing the murderer who killed the three elders and dozens of thugs, he is still a little nervous.

Wei Yang took out a small pot of wine, took two sips, turned his head and looked at Qi Leshan, with his hands on the table, his back straight and slightly leaning forward, his glasses slightly drooping, with a sense of oppression, but his tone was sincere and gentle.

"Mr. Qi, I'm sorry."

Duan Long didn't care, his expression was calm: "Eat yours, smoke yours, feel free to be so presumptuous."

As a senior reporter before changing careers, screenwriter Jiahui was very experienced in communicating and inquiring with the murderer.

He is good at observing details, has strict logic, quick thinking, and rich knowledge. He likes to force the other party to answer questions with loopholes and information through continuous and rapid questioning, and then seize these to continue digging, resulting in more and more loopholes.

Compared with reporters and screenwriters, it is more like the way of police interrogation. Qi Leshan frequently reveals loopholes under his questioning.

"Why kill the three elders?"

"For money."

"Isn't being a thug profitable?"

"Gambling."

"Are you in debt?"

"Loan sharks, desperate."

"How much?"

"Three million."

"Are the loan sharks using yellow, white, or green money?"

"Ah?"

"These days, loan sharks are increasing rapidly, and currencies are depreciating even faster. When you pay back the money, the lenders will lose money."

"Even if you borrow or pay back the money, you have to convert it into hard currency."

"You've figured it out."

"I knew it a long time ago. You call it yellow, white, and green money. We talk about gold, silver, and beauty. I borrowed silver."

"How much silver did you borrow?"

"Three million French francs of silver."

"How much French francs was this amount of silver converted into before you were arrested, according to the market price?" ? "

"…I don't know. "

"You are in debt, don't you care?"

"I don't like to keep accounts."

"Did the price of silver rise or fall that month?"

"Who can remember it clearly?"

"You can't remember it clearly, but the debt collectors will definitely remember it clearly and won't fail to tell you."

"It rose. How could it fall in those days?"

"Yes, the central bank opened up its silver reserves that month, and the price of silver fell by 30%. "

"…"

"You love gambling. How much are the red square chips in the Magic City Casino worth?"

"I go to a small place to play, cash."

"How much does one number on two dice pay?"

"…(silence)"

"One to ten."

"Yes, ten."

"Sorry, I remembered it wrong. It's eight to one."

"…(silence)"

This scene is a battle between Wei Yang and Duan Long.

The other actors are more like background boards, watching the two people's questions and answers in doubt and thoughtfulness.

Wei Yang was in the active position in this scene, taking every step carefully and aggressively, but in terms of performance, Duan Long actually had more room to play.

From the casualness of not caring at the beginning, to the slight panic when being caught later, and the futile attempt to remedy the situation, he exposed more and more tension, and finally even a little desperate and angry.

Although Wei Yang had limited performance space, he also acted out the emotional changes of the character.

From the normal inquiry at the beginning, to the curiosity and questioning when he found something wrong, to the confidence of digging out more and more wrong things later, and the slight satisfaction of completely exposing the latter's lies and the further desire for the truth.

Because the character was in a posture of serial questioning, these emotional expressions were not as obvious as Duan Long, but it did not mean that Wei Yang did not act them out.

According to the pre-planned shooting plan, the shooting stopped at this point, but Wei Yang was a little excited, and he continued to look down, his voice was serious and his eyes were sharp.

"Why do you want to kill people."

"Because of money,"

Duan Long did not make any other movements, and he took over the emotions very smoothly.

Director: This is the tacit understanding accumulated by the two of them in the previous play. Wei Yang got excited, and he was not much better.

This kind of question-and-answer play, the lines are asked faster and faster, the emotional levels are gradually accumulated, and more and more, not only is the performance enjoyable, but the physiological and psychological changes are also corresponding. The actors are not just pulling out the characters directly.

The other actors were not as into the play as the two of them, and they were somewhat surprised and stunned, but it just fit the situation and did not break the play.

They are all old actors, who have more or less experienced and seen similar situations, so they reacted quickly and continued to play, and even the emotions were integrated into the characters.

Executive director Zhang Yongxin also saw the situation and did not interfere, letting the two perform.

The only one who was a little confused was Lin Gengxin. He was inexperienced and did not perform as easily as others.

However, the rookie policeman he played was originally a somewhat silly person. He looked at the screenwriter and the murderer "confrontation" in a daze, but he did not deviate from the character.

Wei Yang and Duan Long ignored the others. All the emotional preparations before were in place, and the two began to enter the climax stage.

"Why do you want to kill people?"

Wei Yang's eyes were sharp, and his voice was getting louder and louder: "Why kill the three elders?"

Duan Long was guilty and dodged his eyes, forcing himself to explain: "Because of money."

Wei Yang pressed on: "You are not doing it for money?"

Duan Long was a little annoyed: "Because of money!"

Wei Yang raised his voice again, and hit his heart: "You just want to kill people! You just want to kill people!"

Duan Long was panicked and angry, and smashed the wine pot: "So what? I just want to kill people."

The two people's voices became louder and louder, and the quarrel became more and more fierce. Wei Yang asked loudly, and Duan Long was a little crazy and angry.

"You just want to kill people."

"I just want to kill him."

Until Wei Yang said "Who is he?", the hysterical shouting stopped. The two panted and looked at each other. Lin Gengxin looked at the two in panic. The camera was around, and the other actors were also dumbfounded.

Part of it was in line with the plot, and part of it was surprised by the performance of the two.

Duan Long is fine, but everyone has some idea of ​​Wei Yang, at least he is not as good as Duan Long, but the scene just now is not inferior, which really surprised everyone.

Fatty Fan, holding a cigarette in his hand, stared at the two of them blankly, and recalled the scene when Wei Yang asked him to practice this scene.
