Chapter 168 Director Xu, You Don't Understand Well?
Chapter 168 Director Xu, you don't understand well?
The story of Jingjue Ancient City started when Hu Bayi returned to Yanjing after his recovery.
The role here, as long as it is to explain the background of the story and pave the way for the following story.
Even if it's an expedition to Niuxin Mountain, it's just a foreplay.
Xu Mu planned to finish filming the scene in Yanjing first and then go to other places to continue filming.
After all, it is very tiring to run back and forth for the viewfinder.
Moreover, the place to go is still a plateau area, and the shooting conditions are also difficult.
Xu Mu was worried that after the actors came back, they would not have the energy to continue filming the plot of Yanjing.
"Stop, Lao Lu, when you play Hu Bayi, you have to be a little ruffian. You can't be polite, understand?"
"Mr. Jiang, the character of Fatty Wang can't be too wretched, pay attention."
"Zhang Jing, you should be more cold towards Lao Lu and the others. That's right, keep this indifference. You have just met now, and the relationship has not yet reached a familiar place. You don't need to greet each other with a smile."
"Teacher Yang Ming, you performed very well, please continue to maintain this state."
The days of filming are busy and fulfilling.
Xu Mu found that this group of actors had very good acting skills, but their understanding of the characters' personalities was not very good, and it was not as good as Xu Mu's understanding of the characters' personalities.
After all, Xu Mu had seen the original version, and he knew the character traits of those people.
Therefore, he continued to guide Lao Lu and the others to grasp this aspect.
Because the filming was busy and fulfilling, Xu Mu quickly forgot the previous troubles.
He doesn't care whether it becomes true or not!
On April 12th, the scene where Hu Bayi joined the archaeological team was filmed on this day.
And here, Hu Bayi will use his professional knowledge of tomb robbery, no, professional knowledge of Feng Shui to impress everyone.
"This feng shui is known as the best in geology."
"The place of Fengshui can be simply summarized as the place where wind is stored and where water is obtained."
Hu Bayi, played by Lu Ming, sits on the sofa, watching everyone talking about Tianxing Fengshui.
"Ka, wait a minute, Lao Lu, pay attention, you are explaining to everyone what you know. Although your performance is very good, you always feel that it is almost meaningless.
Come here, let's see what's wrong. "
When Lu Ming was performing, Xu Mu looked at Lu Ming in the camera and suddenly called a pause.
Because Xu Mu felt that the performance here was not very good.
"Old Lu, look, your performance here is a bit unnatural. You don't have the feeling of knowing this kind of Feng Shui."
Xu Mu pointed to Lu Ming's performance in the replay and said.
"Director Xu, I also found out, the main reason is that I really don't understand Feng Shui. Although I read the lines, I still don't understand the meaning of the lines, so I just"
Lu Ming looked at the replay, then at Xu Mu, then scratched his head and said.
After Xu Mu listened to Lu Ming's words, he didn't know how to continue speaking for a while.
It seems that what the other party said does have a little truth.
Even Xu Mu, he still doesn't understand what this line means.
"Um, how about this, try to act as confidently as possible. You don't need to understand the meaning, you just need to act out. You are a professional in this, so you should be able to do it." Xu Mu thought for a while and said to Lu Ming.
"Good Director Xu, I will try my best. The main thing is that every time I act, I will thoroughly understand the meaning of the lines, so that the tone, expression, and movements will be matched with naturalness. This time, I really can't understand the meaning of the lines."
"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, you just need to perform that feeling."
After listening to Lu Ming's words, Xu Mu knew what the other party would say and didn't act well here.
It turned out that the reason why the other party's acting skills were so good before was because he understood the meaning of the lines in advance and felt the situation at that time.
Sure enough, Lu Ming's excellence is not without reason.
Under Xu Mu's "guidance", Lu Ming's filming continued quickly.
"In later generations, Feng Shui was gradually extended as the art of geomantic omen."
"To put it bluntly, it is a kind of knowledge that studies the relationship between heaven, earth and man."
After being directed by Xu Mu, Lu Ming really got a lot of feeling about acting.
At least, the current Hu Bayi looks very confident.
That feeling, looks like a person full of knowledge.
Looking at Lu Ming in the camera, Xu Mu nodded in relief.
After five o'clock in the evening, the day's filming ended and the crew called it a day.
After work was over, Lu Ming found Xu Mu and said, "Director Xu, can we have dinner together tonight?"
"OK!"
Xu Mu agreed to Lu Ming's invitation to dinner without saying a word.
Because he knew that tonight there was another copper stove hot pot to eat.
When he came to Yanjing, what Xu Mu ate the most was copper stove hot pot.
As a southerner, there are still very few ways to eat hot pot.
In Hengcheng, Xu Mu basically eats hot pot with electric hot pot.
Compared with this charcoal-fired copper stove hot pot, the taste is a little worse.
It's like rice cooked with firewood, but it's a little more fragrant than rice cooked in a rice cooker.
A certain mutton hot pot restaurant.
"Director Xu, I offer you a toast."
"Thank you, thank you for inviting me to dinner tonight."
"It should be, anyway, I want to ask Director Xu for help."
"What's up?"
Just after Xu Mu took a sip of his drink, he looked at Lu Ming suspiciously.
Dare to invite him to dinner, because there is something that needs his help!
Just don't know what it is.
"Director Xu, when I talked about Tianxing Fengshui today, I felt very difficult. Because I don't understand the meaning of this line, I would like to ask you to explain it to me.
In this way, it will be more natural for me to perform later. "
"Ah, what?"
After Xu Mu heard Lu Ming's words, his hands holding the mutton stopped in the air.
"I'm talking about the knowledge of Tianxing Fengshui in the script. Director Xu, can you explain it to me, so I can perform it after I understand it."
"Old Lu, this"
After hearing Lu Ming's request, Xu Mu couldn't help it for a while.
To be honest, he couldn't solve this problem.
Because, he doesn't know anything about Tianxing Fengshui.
These are all included in the scripts rewarded by the system.
He can't understand it either!
"What's the matter, Director Xu, is there a problem?"
Lu Ming looked at Xu Mu who looked embarrassed, and asked a little strangely.
"Old Lu, it's not that I don't teach you this, it's just that it's more difficult to understand. Even if I tell you, you might not understand it. Even if it's me, I don't understand it very well."
"Director Xu, don't you understand?"
"That's right."
Because there is no way to teach Lu Ming to understand the Tianxing Fengshui in the lines, Xu Mu had to show his cards.
Yes, he didn't understand either.
"It's not Director Xu, I think you write very well, don't you understand the meaning of it?"
"Um, well, I only know a little bit, but it's very difficult to say it. You remember, Lao Lu, you don't need to worry about this problem, really.
You just need to act out the feeling, you don't have to understand what it means. "
"Oh, that's it, that's good Director Xu."
Seeing Xu Mu's frowning and embarrassed expression, Lu Ming didn't continue to ask Xu Mu to help him understand the meaning of Tianxing Fengshui in his lines.
Because seeing Xu Mu's appearance like this, he knew that these things were very difficult.
Even Xu Mu only understood a little bit of meaning.
And if this little meaning is told to him, it will be difficult for him to understand.
Therefore, Lu Ming finally gave up.
It seems that he can only rely on his acting skills.
After eating the hot pot, the two went back to their rooms to rest.
In the next few days of filming, because of Xu Mu's communication that night, Lu Ming's performance was not bad.
After all, after figuring it out, Lu Ming has nothing to worry about.
So everything is acting very well.
Earlier, the filming in Yanjing was almost done, so Xu Mu was going to take the crew to the Kunlun Mountains and the Taklimakan Desert to shoot.
Of course, they were only filming on the periphery.
Those scenes of dangerous and bad weather mainly rely on post-production.
However, before leaving Yanjing, Xu Mu received an invitation for the Golden Rooster Award.
Yes, he was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award.
And this time, he won a total of three nominations.
Of course, the Golden Rooster Awards will be held in mid-May, and there is still half a month left.
So, I'm not in a hurry, and it won't affect Xu Mu's trip to the Kunlun Mountains to shoot.
A theater group.
"Hi, hello, who is it?"
"Hello, is this Director Chen Ya?"
"I am, where are you?"
"Hello, Director Chen, I'm from the Golden Rooster Awards working group. Your movie "Lost" was nominated for our Golden Rooster Awards, so I specially invite you to attend our Golden Rooster Awards ceremony on May 15th."
"Okay, no problem, I will definitely go then."
"Okay, the relevant information will be sent to your mobile phone at that time, and you can fill in the content as required."
"good."
"That's fine, I won't bother you if I have nothing to do."
"Wait a minute, by the way, I want to ask, has Director Xu Mu been nominated?"
"Won."
"Oh, yes, thank you."
"Okay, bye."
beep beep.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Ya looked at the phone, but didn't feel happy.
Although he was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award, he also heard the news that Xu Mu had been nominated.
Tell me, why is he happy?
However, despite being unhappy, this time is also a chance.
If he can beat Xu Mu this time, the company might reconsider using him again.
At that time, he will no longer need to be an assistant director for others.
Seriously, this co-director has a fart.
Xu Mu and his party took a plane to a city near the Kunlun Mountains.
Because of the high altitude here, some people have altitude sickness.
Forced, they had to rest for a few days first.
But fortunately, during the rest, Xu Mu can also take a look at the beautiful scenery here, right? It's time to travel.
This rest is several days.
And soon, May Day is coming.
This time, the May 1st gear is really a fight between dragons and tigers.
There are as many as three Hollywood blockbusters alone.
Oncoming, that is quite ferocious!
Fortunately, Xu Mu didn't have a movie to be released, otherwise he would have been terrified.
I just don't know whether domestic films can survive under the siege of three Hollywood blockbusters.
