MTL - Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire-Chapter 25 boot
…
In front of a broken temple in the Clear Water Bay studio.
Lin Zhengying is instructing the creators of "Happy Ghost" to set up the altar, while Xu Cun is greeting Zhao Yazhi, Li Zhu and his wife, Xu Jixin, Zhao Zhenqiang and other friends...
When the time was about to arrive, Lin Zhengying came to Xu Cun and said, "Brother Cun, the auspicious time has come."
Hearing this, Xu Cun apologized to Li Zhu and the others, and then prepared to worship God.
It's time.
Xu Cun brought the whole crew of "Happy Ghost" to incense to worship God.
Xu Cun clasped his hands together to hold the incense, and said sincerely, "I beg the gods and Buddhas in the sky to bless the filming of "Happy Ghost", which will be a big hit at the box office..."
Xu Cun finished the incense, Lin Zhengying did the incense, then Li Wo, then Dong Wei...
After worshiping the gods and sending Zhao Yazhi and other guests away, Xu Cun began to discuss with Li Wo how to set up the ruined temple - the entire crew, Li Wo is the oldest, and Li Wo is also Li's cousin, and he has helped Xu Cun, so Xu Cun spoke to Li Wo very politely.
At first, Li Wo didn't say anything, just listened - to be honest, he was not optimistic about the crew of "Happy Ghost", and he didn't think that this crew, which was almost all newcomers except him, could make any decent movie.
However, when Xu Cun started giving orders, Li Wo knew that he was wrong - Xu Cun was very familiar with filmmaking, at least Xu Cun was very familiar with the props, and Xu Cun's method was even better than his own when it came to arranging certain scenes. A Taoist dramatist who has worked for more than 20 years is even more brilliant.
Therefore, the shrewd Li Wo did not dare to underestimate Xu Cun any longer.
After explaining Li Wo, Xu Cun went to the temporary dressing room built by the props team.
As soon as he entered the dressing room, Xu Cun said to Xiao Lan, "Go and fetch the scissors."
Lin Jingjing, Lin Xiaohua, and Yan Ruyu are all students, so Xu Cun doesn't need to put too much makeup on Luo Meiwei, Li Saifeng, and Wen Bixia. All Xu Cun needs to do is to design a more playful hairstyle for Luo Meiwei and Li Saifeng to highlight their youth and beauty, and design a cute but not too beautiful look for Wen Bixia. In addition, since the eldest of Li Saifeng was less than fourteen years old, Xu Cun had to use makeup to make them look a little older.
Xu Cun first took Luo Mei to open the surgery.
"Shu!" "Shu!" "Shu!"…
After dozens of cuts, Xu Cun designed a playful hairstyle for her based on Luo Meiwei's original hairstyle.
The second is Li Saifeng.
Based on Li Saifeng's original hairstyle, Xu Cun designed a hairstyle that highlights her beauty.
The third is Wen Bixia.
Wen Bixian's hairstyle was the most cost-intensive among the three, and it was also the one that changed the most. Moreover, after designing her hairstyle, Xu Cun specially found her flat glasses with a large frame, which made her obviously very cute.
Then, Xu Cun simply put on makeup for Luo Meiwei, Li Saifeng, and Wen Bixia one by one.
After Luo Meiwei's three daughters put on the clothes that Xu Cun personally picked for them, they walked and looked in the mirror.
Luo Meiwei and Li Saifeng's faces immediately filled with irrepressible smiles - obviously, they were extremely satisfied with their new look.
Different from Luo Meiwei and Li Saifeng's elation, Wen Bixia started to pouting after looking in the mirror - her shape was neither tight nor beautiful, the flat glasses with large frame even covered most of her small face, making others very uncomfortable. It's hard to recognize her true face, which makes her happy who wants to be famous through "Happy Ghost"?
At this moment, how could Xu Cun be in the mood to care what Wen Bixia was thinking? After Luo Meiwei's three girls left the dressing room, Xu Cun asked Xiaolan to call Dong Wei and others.
This time, Xu Cun didn't do it himself, he just instructed Xiao Lan to do makeup and styling for these people - a combat-effective team can never be supported by only one person. Therefore, from now on, Xu Cun will consciously train the team.
After the design of the main actors was almost done, Xu Cun let Xiao Lan play freely, while he went to confirm the location of the camera with Zhong Zhiwen.
Xu Cun's screenplay is very detailed, and Zhong Zhiwen is a rare photographer. So, Xu Cun only read it once and went to the sound engineer...
…
After all, it is a team composed entirely of newcomers. So, by the time everything is ready, it's time for a lunch break.
The sky is big, the earth is big, and eating is the biggest, so Xu Cun gave an order to start a lunch break.
Xu Cun finished the lunch in a few bites, then inspected all the departments, and then went back to the dressing room to put on makeup and costumes for himself...
…
After the lunch break is over, "Happy Ghost" is about to start!
"The actors are buried in their respective positions!"
"Lights ready!"
"Props ready!"
"Prepare for animation!"
"Camera ready!"
The first scene of "Happy Ghost", Aikesh!
The moment Lin Zhengying took the slate, a torrential downpour suddenly fell outside the broken temple, which was covered by a black cloth, pulling the white light flickering inside the broken temple...
Xu Cun held a camera and used a long lens to shoot the scene inside the ruined temple...
What makes Zhong Zhiwen very puzzled is that Xu Cun does not use the lens to push the camera - at certain times, Xu Cun will use the extremely fast speed to shake the camera in his hand.
The basic techniques of photography are nothing more than pushing, pulling, shaking, moving, pitching, tilting, following and chasing. As a master photographer, Zhong Zhiwen naturally knows these techniques. Moreover, he has used and seen every method countless times. However, Zhong Zhiwen has never seen anyone shake the camera so freely and so much, especially in the process of shooting long shots—if he hadn’t known that Xu Cun was a master photographer, Zhong Zhi would Wen must have thought that Xu Cun was messing around.
However, even though Zhong Zhiwen knew that Xu Cun must have a deep meaning in Xu Cun's shooting, he still couldn't help but suspect that Xu Cun's shooting would create a dark, fuzzy shadow.
Therefore, after Xu Cun shouted, Zhong Zhiwen immediately came to Xu Cun's side to watch the long shot that Xu Cun had just finished shooting.
At a glance, Zhong Zhiwen immediately widened his eyes with a look of disbelief on his face—the picture taken by Xu Cun was not only clear and unusual, but also exuded some terrifying and eerie atmosphere. There is no sense of inconsistency.
Just when Zhong Zhiwen recalled Xu Cun's shooting technique, Xu Cun sorted out the costumes and said, "Prepare for the next one."
…
As an old man who has been in the film industry for half his life, Li Wor really opened his eyes today!
Although there are almost all newcomers in the crew, the filming speed of the film is faster than any crew that Livaux has worked with before—under normal circumstances, as long as the actors do not make mistakes, it is a pass. Li Wo thought it would take at least two days to film the scene in this ruined temple, but Xu Cun finished the filming in just one afternoon plus some greed.
If it was just speed, Livor wouldn't admit that he opened his eyes at all. What convinced Li Wo was that after watching the film, except for the average acting skills of a few actors, he could not find any faults.
While packing up the props, Li Wo looked at Xu Cun who was instructing the crew to install the equipment, and couldn't help sighing, "It's really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves..."
