Chapter seven hundred and ninety seventh big name arrives
Zhao Liying came to the crew of the TV series "Dae Jang Geum". The crew members were a little nervous, including the director.
This is an international movie star. The box office of the movie starring exceeds 700 million US dollars, which is 6 billion RMB, which is the first in China.
In case of bumping and bumping during the shooting process, who can bear this responsibility?
Especially the relationship between Mr. Lin and Zhao Liying, everyone sees it. There are a few actors in the company who can enter and exit Mr. Lin's house at will, which shows that Zhao Liying's identity is extraordinary.
Maybe two years ago she was an unknown little girl, but now she has already flown to the branch and turned into a phoenix.
The director was quite confused.
On the one hand, he hopes that Zhao Liying's role will be better, so that "Dae Jang Geum" will receive more attention.
There were dozens of reporters who came to visit the crew today, and it was obvious that they were all for Zhao Liying.
There was no such situation in the past? Although "Dae Jang Geum" was a series focused on creating by Haomeng Company's investment of tens of millions, there will be no reporters visiting the set every day.
TV series are different from movies.
The movie must be released in theaters, and the audience spends money to buy tickets. Sometimes, in order to prevent spoilers, the crew will only open it to the media from time to time, and it is also to not affect the shooting progress.
There is no need to hide the TV series. The more reporters visit the set, the better, which means the topic is high.
If there were no reporters visiting the set, the drama would be in lingering.
On the other hand, the director wanted to finish filming Zhao Liying's scenes quickly. There was such a great master who was not easy to control in the crew. Who knew if he would get angry and play a big shot?
He is neither Zhang Yimou nor Feng Xiaogang, nor a famous foreign director, so he is under a lot of pressure.
However, the director was inevitably a little happy to be able to cooperate with international movie stars. He could show off with others in the future. Zhao Liying knew that it was that international star, and I directed her drama.
The director's mood is painful and happy.
This is the case in the film and television industry. It is very realistic, and the status of directors and actors is relative.
A big director can control a big star. A little director needs to compromise and give in to a big star. The media always reports that an actor is a big star. Who would be a big star in Zhang Yimou's crew?
Wang Jiawei, in Xiangjiang, has been filmed for several years, but no big stars have ever clamored to quit.
The director and screenwriter of "Dae Jang Geum" polished the script over and over again.
Especially Zhao Liying's scenes, all dangerous factors are eliminated. If you don't shoot a scene on a rainy day, what should you do if you catch a cold? If you don't shoot an action scene, who will be responsible for the injury? You can't have too many lines. If you need acting skills, you will reduce the plot energy and serve big stars.
In fact, the director and Xiao Ye discussed it.
Xiaoye did not make excessive requests, just do it according to normal circumstances.
This time, Zhao Liying played a role in a friendly manner, with fewer roles and less than a month's schedule. During this period, she also had to participate in the movie promotional activities, and the actual shooting time was only about half a month.
Her pay is 20,000 yuan per episode, which is only 100,000 yuan in total.
Compared with her current value, this is really a friendly price. You can earn millions if you shoot an advertisement in half a month.
The director cannot treat Zhao Liying as Xiao Ye said, as he said, as international movie stars, otherwise what if he annoys this big star?
Sun Li and Zhao Liying took a bus to the set together.
They have been in contact with each other several times these days and become familiar with each other. Sun Li introduced the crew's shooting progress, the crew's actors and staff, everyone's personality and way of doing things.
While helping Zhao Liying integrate into the crew, it also avoids conflicts and affects the crew's shooting.
As soon as the two got out of the car, the reporters who had been waiting for a long time gathered up and kept taking photos.
There are many questions about Zhao Liying, and the scene is a bit messy. The director hurriedly asked the crew members to come forward to help maintain order and no mistakes can happen.
Facing the reporter, Zhao Liying greeted her with a smile.
She has long been familiar with this kind of scene. Her life under the spotlight and her life experience abroad have allowed her to grow and mature quickly, which may be the price of entering the entertainment industry.
She answered simple questions, avoided talking about those difficult questions, or smiled.
She is underage and has this right. She occasionally looks cute when she plays a tantrum. If she is an adult, she will be called a big shot by reporters.
When an actor answers reporters’ questions, he usually speaks concisely. The more concise the better, the more wrong he says.
After a lot of noise, the crew members blocked the reporter outside the set.
The script had been delivered to Zhao Liying long ago. The director knew that Zhao Liying's schedule was tight, so he came over to communicate and get into the shooting state as soon as possible, and strive to finish the filming as soon as possible.
This is the first day, and the director arranged a relatively simple scene, mainly showing Zhao Liying's daily life.
After putting on makeup and trying on clothes, Zhao Liying, dressed in ancient costume, appeared in front of everyone. Her role was a farm girl who had to carry water, cook, feed chickens and pigs every day.
However, she is very smart and studious, and often goes outside the village private school to listen to her teacher's lectures.
The set is in a small farmyard in the film and television base. There is a well in the yard and a fence is built, which raises a few chickens and two pigs.
Zhao Liying is going to feed the pigs now. She brought the pig food to the outside of the fence and wanted to coax the pigs over to eat.
When filming, the most difficult thing to work with is children and animals, who do not obey the command.
The pig was just bought from outside the show business. In order to sell it at a good price, the pig seller will feed the pig in advance and increase the weight. The pig is digesting food and does not cooperate with Zhao Liying at all.
Zhao Liying put down the pig pot, lay on the ground, humming in her mouth, imitating the pig's chirping, and coaxing the piglet.
There is no such scene in the script, and it’s over for the staff to drive the pig over, so there’s no need to coax it like this.
Zhao Liying has lived in the countryside and has seen this situation, so she naturally did it.
"Look, this is what I talked about with you." The director saw this scene behind the monitor and praised the people beside him, "Although Xiao Zhao is an international big star, he does not show off his airs of big star. He has prepared so much and is full of life. You must study hard, this is the professionalism."
Zhao Liying completed the next scenes well.
The main reason is that the director thinks that at the beginning, we should proceed step by step to let Zhao Liying enter the role. There is also a plot of parting and entering the palace. It is a love scene, which some tests the actor's acting skills.
Of course, the interpretation of the TV series itself is not difficult. Zhao Liying has no problem coping with it after the training of "Xiaoxue's Big Adventure".
If you are starring in a literary and artistic movie, you may still need to polish it.
Zhao Liying's first day on the crew passed like this, without any danger.
The director and crew members felt relieved and felt that this international big-name star was not that difficult to cooperate with. Perhaps they were thinking too much.
Chapter completed!
