Chapter 993 Communication Between Three People

Next to Tan Yue's room, Ma Guoliang was smoking a cigarette. When he saw the news on his phone, he smiled.

His agent sent him a screenshot of "The Godfather" being the number one on Weibo's hot search list.

There was also a voice message under the picture:

"Teacher Ma, the opening ceremony of "The Godfather" has landed on the number one hot search list."

Ma Guoliang threw his cigarette butt into the ashtray and extinguished it. As soon as there was a little news about "The Godfather" on the Internet, it directly topped the Weibo hot search list. It was simply terrifying.

The higher the popularity, the greater the benefit to the movie. It is no exaggeration to say that even if there is no publicity in China, relying only on reports from a few media, no movie will be more popular than "The Godfather".

As for the quality of "The Godfather" itself, Ma Guoliang is more confident, even slightly better than "Forrest Gump".

He believes that "The Godfather" will be more popular after it is released.

Ma Guoliang opened Weibo and clicked on the hot spots. He saw that netizens were looking forward to this new work. One of the comments made him feel quite interesting.

"I can't believe that the three passionate old men from Hualin actually went to the United States to join the mafia??? Although all three of them are very capable, I hope that I won't be distracted when I see this movie, hahahaha."

Ma Guoliang thought to himself: It's impossible to be distracted.

Today, I saw Fan Shan put on a black suit and combed his hair back, and the state when he was acting really gave people a sense of oppression.

Several people have made considerable changes in their appearance, coupled with their deep acting skills and some processing on the screen, which will definitely not make the audience feel distracted.

Ma Guoliang now wants to tell all netizens to look forward to this movie, which will definitely be very exciting.

The news that "The Godfather" held a start-up ceremony in New York quickly spread on major social platforms, and the movie forums that had been silent for a while suddenly became lively.

"Breaking news! Breaking news! Teacher Tan Yue's new movie has already held a launch ceremony in the United States!"

"Fuck, I was just checking the forum and saw such a big news."

"Congratulations!"

"Build a building!"

"After waiting for so long, I finally got the news of Teacher Tan Yue's new movie. I hope the crew can speed up the progress so that we can see this new work soon."

"Teacher Tan Yue is still so fierce. The TV series just ended not long ago, and there is a new movie so soon!"

"As an old fan, I am so excited that I am about to cry. I wish "The Godfather" a good box office performance in the global film market."

There are many related posts on the entire forum, and they are all very popular. One post has attracted many netizens.

'Tan Yue's new movie "The Godfather" is suspected to be a response to "Black Fire". ’

“Some time ago, someone broke the news that the film Black Fire, shot by Columbia Entertainment, was suspected of plagiarizing Infernal Affairs. Many netizens left messages under Tan Yue’s Weibo, but there was no response. Today, I saw Tan Yue mentioned Infernal Affairs at the opening ceremony. I boldly guessed that The Godfather was here to slap Black Fire in the face.”

“Fuck, the host is awesome. You can even see this.”

“I think what the host said makes a lot of sense.”

“I think Mr. Tan Yue has known about this, but it is too difficult to sue foreign entertainment companies for infringement, and it is still impossible to determine whether there is plagiarism.”

“This kind of plagiarized movie should slap them in the face, let them see the consequences of plagiarism, and support Mr. Tan Yue to do this.”

New York, The Godfather crew.

When he arrived at the crew early in the morning, Tan Yue led people to set up the venue.

“Rearrange this place.”

“The light in this room should be dimmed, not too bright.”

“There are some problems with the placement of the seats, adjust them again.”

Under Tan Yue’s command, the crew arranged the scenes that would be used in the next period of time in an orderly manner.

A staff member ran to Tan Yue and said, "Director Tan, the monitor has been adjusted."

"OK!" Tan Yue shouted with a loudspeaker: "Turn on the camera and see how it works?"

Tan Yue came to the monitor, picked up the intercom and waited for a response.

A voice came after a while.

"The camera crew is ready."

"The sound is ready."

"."

Tan Yue said to the intercom: "Come and see the effect."

While debugging the equipment, the actors were putting on makeup and reading the script.

"Teacher Fan, close your eyes."

"Okay."

Fan Shan closed his eyes and thought about how to act in each scene over and over again in his mind.

The first half of the movie mainly revolves around him, and he has a heavy role, so the burden on him will certainly be heavier.

Although he has never played this type of role in his acting career, and the background of the movie takes place abroad, in order to better grasp the characteristics of the old godfather, he read a lot of information, which is why he performed so well on the first day of shooting.

Once you find the state of the role, you need to keep it until the filming is finished. When not filming, Fan Shan will also imagine himself as Vito Corleone, or say that he is Vito Corleone.

"Teacher Fan, the scene over there has been built, you can go over for the audition." The person who spoke was a staff member of the crew.

"I'll go over now."

Fan Shan brought the crew to the shooting site and began to rehearse with several other actors according to the content of the script.

At this time, Tan Yue also came over and gave them some instructions on some details: "When you see Teacher Fan's eyes, you must avoid it and keep your head down."

More than ten minutes later.

Tan Yue said: "I think it's almost done, let's shoot it once and try it out."

Several actors nodded, handed the script in their hands to the staff, took a deep breath and adjusted their state.

The assistant director shouted with a loudspeaker: "Start shooting immediately, the staff return to their posts, and irrelevant personnel leave immediately."

In ten seconds, the set was quiet.

Tan Yue came to the monitor: "Let's start."

The script supervisor hit the board and started shooting.

There was an actor who made a mistake in the middle, and Tan Yue did not shout "cut". In this case, the actor had to continue to perform.

He did this to let them go through it first.

"Okay, stop."

Hearing Tan Yue's voice, the actor who made the mistake was very nervous.

Tan Yue came to several actors and said: "Don't be nervous, let me tell you a few problems first. First, your emotions are not right. You must have a reverent heart. You just acted too peacefully."

After speaking, the second round of shooting began.

There was still a small problem this time.

Several people came to the monitor to watch their own scenes. After Tan Yue said a few points, Fan Shan also explained.

Then the third shooting began.

Tan Yue, who was sitting in front of the monitor, said: "There is no problem this time. '

After two NGs, this scene finally passed.

In the evening.

There was no scene for Ma Guoliang today. He did not go to the set. He had a simple dinner in the hotel restaurant and returned to his room.

He brought a can of tea leaves for this overseas shooting. Seeing that the water had boiled, he took a glass and made a cup of tea.

Although there was no scene, he was not idle all day. He had been studying the script.

Ma Guoliang took out the script and continued to read it. He encountered a few questions that were not clear. He wondered whether he should find Fan Shan to talk about it. But he was worried that it would affect his rest, and he was a little entangled.

Fan Shan must be tired after a day of scenes today.

Ma Guoliang took out several books about improving acting skills that he brought from China to see if he could find the answer from them.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Ma Guoliang still frowned, and didn't find the answer he wanted. He put down the script in his hand, took a sip of tea, and murmured: "Forget it, let's go ask."

If the problem can't be solved, he won't be able to sleep all night.

Ma Guoliang took the script and got up to Fan Shan's room.

Their rooms are all on the same floor of the hotel, but Fan Shan's room is the first one at the corner.

"Teacher Fan!?" Ma Guoliang just walked to the corner and saw Fan Shan going out.

"Brother Ma, what are you doing?"

Ma Guoliang said: "I encountered a few problems in the script, and I thought about talking to you to help me solve the doubts. I thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure out what to do."

"That's too coincidental." Fan Shan smiled and showed the script in his hand: "I also encountered some problems, and I also thought about talking to you."

Seeing that the two of them had such a tacit understanding, Ma Guoliang also laughed.

The two of them are different from other actors. As long as they encounter any problems in the script or acting, they will find someone with good acting skills to communicate with them as soon as possible.

Fan Shan said, "Will you chat here for a while?"

"How about we go and ask Director Tan first?"

After all, both of them have encountered some problems, and Tan Yue is the most suitable person at this time.

"Will this affect Mr. Tan's rest?" Fan Shan was a little embarrassed for a moment. The director was the busiest and most tired person in the entire crew, and he had to go and disturb him at night.

Ma Guoliang was also a little entangled, but when he thought that the problem had not been solved, his head was a little big.

"Let's go knock on the door first. If it's too busy, we can solve it ourselves."

"Okay." Fan Shan also felt that it would be more appropriate to ask Tan Yue about the script. The shooting will start early tomorrow morning, and there is no time to delay.

The two hit it off, Fan Shan closed the door, and prepared to find Tan Yue.

At this time, Tan Yue was checking the video shot today in the room. In order to avoid mistakes caused by negligence, he would check all the content shot during the day before going to bed every day.

Whether it is the shooting of a TV series or a movie, daily inspection has become his habit.

What's more, the shooting progress this time will be faster, and it needs to be checked every day.

Tan Yue watched the screen frame by frame, not missing any small details.

At present, most people have not fully recovered their state, and the shooting speed has not increased much.

If it cannot be released at the same time as "Black Fire", it doesn't matter, after all, the quality of the movie is the first priority.

But he didn't worry too much. With these few veteran actors, the efficiency will definitely be greatly improved later.

Now the clips of Fan Shan are basically shot in one take, and the situation of Ma Guoliang's scenes later is similar.

There was a sudden knock on the door. Tan Yue got up and walked to the door. He saw Ma Guoliang and Fan Shan through the cat's eye, and then opened the door: "Why are you here? Come in."

Ma Guoliang said: "Didn't disturb your rest?"

"No, I'm still watching the clips shot during the day." Tan Yue said: "You sit down."

Fan Shan said, "It's like this, Mr. Tan, Brother Ma and I have encountered some problems with the script, so I thought of coming here to ask. If it disturbs your rest, we will go back and think about it."

"Just sit here and rest assured. It's still early for me to rest. I haven't slept at this time." Tan Yue had a smile on his face. He was very happy to chat with two old actors and learn a lot from them.

Fan Shan and Ma Guoliang always felt a little embarrassed.

Tan Yue put the computer aside and took out the script: "Where did you encounter problems?"

"Brother Ma, you ask first."

Ma Guoliang waved his hand and said, "You should come first. You still have to shoot tomorrow."

"You don't have to be so humble. Today, just treat it as our communication. No matter whether it is Teacher Fan or Teacher Ma, even if it is me, as long as there is a problem, just raise it and we will discuss it together. There is strength in numbers, and different angles will lead to different ways of dealing with problems."

Fan Shan and Ma Guoliang nodded at the same time, moved by Tan Yue's words.

"Then I'll go first." Fan Shan opened the script, which was densely written with many words and marked with other colored pens, and said, "My question is this."

After Tan Yue expressed his views, he asked Ma Guoliang to express his views.

Fan Shan felt enlightened: "I thought, I always felt that this place was not right. It turned out that my thinking was a bit crooked."

Tan Yue smiled and said: "Teacher Ma, it's your turn."

Ma Guoliang told the two of them about his more confused points.

This time, Fan Shan took the lead in expressing his views.

Tan Yue said: "Teacher Fan is right, but there is another aspect. The Michael Corleone you play does have many advantages of the old godfather, but he also has his own courage."

Ma Guoliang nodded thoughtfully and recorded something on the script.

He wrote no less words on the script than Fan Shan.

The three people started talking about a lot, from acting to filming, drinking tea and talking.

It was mainly Fan Shan and Ma Guoliang who were talking, and Tan Yue was listening.

Fan Shan reminded: "Brother Ma, check the time. I didn't bring my phone."

"Oh, time flies. It's already past eleven."

The three of them were so excited that they didn't pay attention to the time. When they came to their senses, they realized that they had been talking for more than three hours.

Tan Yue said: "We were so happy that we didn't pay attention to the time."

Fan Shan and Ma Guoliang got up quickly.

"We can't chat anymore. We have to shoot tomorrow morning."

Tan Yue nodded and said: "It's fun to chat with you two. Let's chat again when we have a day off."

He really likes this feeling, listening to some experiences and experiences of old actors.

Ma Guoliang and Fan Shan agreed happily.
