Chapter 157 You Are an Actor's Actor!

Lin Qiu, who won the Best Film Award three times in a row at the Golden Phoenix Awards, is on fire!

Movie fans all over Xiazhou are impressed by Lin Qiu's talent and are looking forward to Lin Qiu's next crucial film!

It is said that the investment in "The Truman Show" is as high as 1 billion, which has caused a stir in the industry.

Even when the news of "Truman" publicly recruiting advertisers came out, the curiosity of movie fans was greater than the doubts!

As long as they are netizens with normal IQ, no one doubts that Lin Qiu and Changan will make money and cut leeks at this stage.

Now Changan has such a good reputation, and Lin Qiu has a promising future. He has gradually become famous in the Jiuzhou film market. If he has to make a terrible movie at this time, he must have a brain hole.

[I have never doubted Lin Qiu's ability to shoot low-cost films, but this is the first time he has made a high-cost film. I am a little worried. ]

[Watch first! Question later! ]

[Don't panic! Believe in Lin Qiu and it's done! Lin Qiu, go for it! 】

Nowadays, the flame named "Lin Qiu" is burning so vigorously that the so-called water army has been evaporated by the flame.

Netizens with normal IQ have occupied the high ground one after another!

The unified rhetoric is:

"Watch first, then question!"

The difficulty and pressure of shooting high-cost movies are different from low-cost ones.

In his previous life, Bong Joon-ho, a world-class director who directed "Memories of Murder", "Snowpiercer" and "Parasite", once said that he did not like to watch high-cost movies, but preferred to shoot low-cost movies.

Because high-cost movies have box office pressure, while low-cost movies not only have no box office pressure, but also can better express themselves and the content of the movie.

This is the first time that Lin Qiu has directed a high-cost movie. Movie fans are naturally worried while looking forward to it.

Several main actors of "The Truman Show" have all been decided during this period.

The actor who plays the male protagonist Truman is Li Jie from Xizhou.

The actor who plays Director Chris is Chen Daohua.

The actor who plays Truman's wife is Liu Xialing, the queen of Xiazhou.

The first love girlfriend and the best friend Ma Long are both young actors from Changan Film and Television Company.

Among them, it is worth mentioning that Chu Yun, who plays Truman's first love girlfriend Sylvia, is definitely a young actress who is a heartthrob. They will all go to Xizhou Green Leaf Town to shoot their scenes at the end of November.

...

Chang'an, Music Department.

It is said that a short separation is better than a new marriage.

Although Lin Qiu has been away from the Magic City for only a few days, during this period, Tang Anning in the Magic City has completely entered a state of love.

Even when she is alone at home, she will smile shyly and miss Lin Qiu more than once.

When she came to the Chang'an Music Department, she pushed open the door and saw the familiar figure. Tang Anning couldn't help but throw herself into Lin Qiu's arms.

I saw that this little queen with a strong aura on the stage was like an ostrich at this moment, and her little head wanted to dive deeply into Lin Qiu's arms.

With her fragrant body in his arms, Lin Qiu hugged Tang Anning tightly, and a feeling of happiness could not help but rise in his heart.

Tang Anning's lips were a little cold, but they became soft in an instant, as if biting on a ball of warm cotton.

Kissing is really something that has no concept of time. I don’t know how long it took before the two gradually separated.

Tang Anning tidied her clothes and hair, and her exposed white neck was as red as a cut pink strawberry.

"Come and see what song you want to sing for the Spring Festival Gala."

"Something happier!"

Tang Anning sat down like a cat and leaned against Lin Qiu.

After hearing the news that she could perform on the Spring Festival Gala with Lin Qiu, Tang Anning was even more delighted!

"Listen."

Lin Qiu made several demos, among which the song "Where Has Time Gone" was crossed out by Lin Qiu.

"What's wrong with this song?"

"I gave it to Sun Qin, this song is quite tear-jerking."

Lin Qiu smiled and said.

A few days ago, Sun Qin, Lin Qiu's friend in the music circle, who sang "The Prodigal Son Returns" before, asked Lin Qiu if he had any songs suitable for the Spring Festival Gala.

Lin Qiu adhered to the principle that if it is not tear-jerking, it is useless not to tear-jerking, and directly gave this song "Where Has Time Gone" to Sun Qin.

There are few tear gas bombs in the Spring Festival Gala, after all, it is a reunion occasion.

But in the Spring Festival Gala of the previous life, there were really such tear gas bombs. The simple lyrics of this song go straight to the heart.

"Where has the time gone? I have not yet felt young and I am old."

"Giving birth to children and raising daughters for a lifetime, my mind is full of children crying and laughing."

Just looking at these lyrics, Tang Anning got goose bumps and was touched.

"You, the Spring Festival Gala is all about making people cry!"

Tang Anning curled her lips and said.

Although Lin Qiu is her man now, Tang Anning still has to say that she may be one of the fans who cried the most for Lin Qiu's movies!

Tang Anning secretly watched Lin Qiu's movies more than once.

"Anning."

Lin Qiu took Tang Anning's hand and asked seriously:

"If I say that it was not my intention to hand out knives."

"I am actually a good person, do you believe it?"

Tang Anning was stunned for a moment, and then shook her head like a rattle.

Even though she knew that Lin Qiu was the old thief, Tang An Ning still felt sorry for Bi Yao and cried for "The Crucible" and "Eighth Prince".

Lin Qiu was immediately hit by a fatal blow, like a thorn in his throat.

Then he started to play badly and shrugged:

"Okay."

"I've reconciled."

"Pick a song, pick a song!"

The songs that Lin Qiu took out were all those that had been performed on the Spring Festival Gala in his previous life, or were more suitable for the atmosphere of the Spring Festival Gala.

"Go Home Often", "Because of Love", "The World Outside", "Congratulations on Getting Rich", "At Least I Have You", "Auspicious Year"...

"You actually have so many songs?"

"Newly written?"

Lin Qiu smiled, "I guess so."

"You have to hand in two songs by then."

Tang An Ning raised his head and asked, "You decide which song you wrote. Which one do you like?"

Lin Qiu's finger pointed to the song at the bottom without hesitation.

Tang An Ning looked over and saw that the name of the song was...

"The Most Dazzling National Style"!

"This song."

"It can be popular all over Xiazhou. "

Lin Qiu said affirmatively.

...

After completing the music production of "The Most Dazzling National Style" and "Go Home Often to Visit" and sending it to the Spring Festival Gala program team.

Lin Qiu is about to board the plane to Xizhou.

Although the filming will start at the end of November, as a director, Lin Qiu needs to go to the set in advance to set up the scenery, and there are a series of shooting details to prepare in advance to ensure the smooth progress of the filming process.

This time, the entire Changan filming crew will still go on a business trip together.

During the filming period, the filming crew members will live in Green Leaf Town and will not see their relatives for at least two months.

In addition to the extra salary, Changan's charter flight is another considerable expense, all of which is included in the high cost of the film.

Fortunately, it is not a big deal for Changan. The advertising space of "The Truman Show" was sold at a sky-high price without suspense.

The largest advertising space was won by the "Dairy Cow" milk brand with a sky-high advertising fee of 450 million yuan, and the rest of the advertising fees were also over 100 million yuan. It has made a lot of money before the filming started.

"I'm leaving, wait for me to come back. "

In the Chang'an Music Department, Lin Qiu pinched Tang Anning's pretty face and said goodbye.

This trip to Xizhou will take at least until January before he can come back.

If Tang Anning wants to go, it's definitely okay, but she doesn't want to affect Lin Qiu's creation because of herself.

Lin Qiu needs to focus when filming a movie, so that he can present a better work.

"Yeah."

Tang Anning stood on tiptoe, kissed Lin Qiu, and said reluctantly:

"Be careful."

"Okay."

...

Stepping on the plane to Xizhou, Lin Qiu, who was sitting at the front of the plane, still had a smile on his face.

Lin Qiu was very grateful to God for giving him the opportunity to live again.

The gaps in family, love, friendship, and dreams in his previous life were gradually filled.

Now Lin Qiu only feels full of motivation!

"Chang'an. "

Lin Qiu looked at the land of Xiazhou below the plane with burning eyes, and said silently.

After the release of "Hachiko", Chang'an Film and Television Company will officially launch an attack on the Kyushu film world.

Kaohsiung turned his head and saw Lin Qiu with such a look, and he also smiled unconsciously.

...

The much-anticipated "The Truman Show" started shooting in Xizhou at the end of November.

Green Leaf Town.

"This is the director of "Hachiko", a director from Xiazhou!"

"Oh! It turned out to be him!"

"Hachiko is really wonderful."

"What "Hachiko", is it a movie? ”

On this day, many residents of Green Leaf Town looked towards the filming site in groups of three or five!

Since the crew of "The Truman Show" came to Green Leaf Town to shoot, these residents have received a very generous compensation.

With money, you can get things done anywhere. In order to shorten the preparation period of "Truman", Changan did not be stingy.

It's just that these residents don't know what the story of "Truman" is.

A crane was driven into the town, hanging a camera or a searchlight, and no one knew what it was for.

At the same time, "Truman's Home" was quite lively, and Lin Qiu was talking about the play with Li Jie.

Chen Daohua also came to the crew, followed Lin Qiu, and watched and communicated together.

Although what we see in the movie is the simultaneous scenes and plots, the shooting is in order, not at the same time.

Most of Chen Daohua's scenes will be shot in Green Leaf Town after all Truman's scenes are shot.

"Okay."

"Let's try one! "

Lin Qiu clapped his hands and cleared the shooting scene.

The story of "Truman" is quite straightforward and the cut is very fast. The first scene is a classic plot, good afternoon, good evening and good night, and the plot of the searchlight falling from the "sky".

"Too professional."

"Xiazhou's shooting team is really too professional."

"Xiazhou's speed is well-deserved!"

This time, not only Li Jie, but also the other non-Xiazhou supporting actors in the crew were shocked.

This shooting team, which can be said to be exclusive to Lin Qiu, followed Lin Qiu all the way and had full execution.

After Lin Qiu gave an order, everyone performed their duties and started to work!

The professionalism and execution of Xiazhou staff were fully demonstrated.

While walking towards the monitor, Lin Qiu said to a member of the Xiazhou shooting crew who was carrying a camera:

"When shooting small shots later, you can try to shake it a little, and you don't have to be so stable."

"I want that first-person perspective feeling."

"Understood, Director Lin. ”

“Okay, go ahead.”

There are many perspectives in the movie, which are different from ordinary shooting techniques. This is also the biggest difference of "Truman".

"Okay, get ready to start."

Lin Qiu took a deep breath, sat in front of the monitor, picked up the intercom and said.

Immediately afterwards, the game recorder immediately opened the board and booted up:

"The first scene of The Truman Show, the first time!"

"Action!"

…

Click!

As the movie officially started, Li Jie quickly entered the state. During this time, Li Jie had long been immersed in the world of The Truman.

The classic "Good morning! In case I don't see you, then I wish you good afternoon, good evening and good night!" shot twice.

The condition was much better than during the previous audition.

Original sentence from the movie: "In case I don't see you, good afternoon, good evening, and good night."

The meaning of this sentence is that Truman said good morning, which means that if he cannot see his neighbors today, he should say good afternoon, good evening and good night in advance.

As for the Chinese translation that many movie fans thought in the previous life: "Good morning, good afternoon and good night".

Lin Qiu could only say that he didn't know where the translation came from, and the meaning was completely different.

In the distance, many residents of Greenleaf Town were watching.

But the next filming scene made their mouths grow into an "O" shape!

"Wardfa! What is this Director Xiazhou doing?"

"I don't know! Does director Xia Zhou always make movies this way?"

"Xiazhou is indeed a magical place!"

"Xiazhou's movies are really exciting, and director Lin Qiu is an amazing boy!"

…

It’s not that they were shocked, it’s that they had never seen such a shooting method.

I saw a member of the Xiazhou filming team standing behind Truman leaning on the bench, placing the camera in front of Truman.

Li Jie could only lean back and cooperate with the first-person perspective shot of the movie.

In this short half-second shot, the dog pounces on Truman, presented through the perspective of the camera!

Although the movements are weird when filmed, it will be very immersive when actually shown on the big screen.

Throughout the "Truman" movie, there will be multiple shots of this kind!

The advantage of this is that it makes the audience feel more immersed in it, and it can better show Truman's current situation. Therefore, Li Jie said with emotion that Lin Qiu is a truly talented director.

But it was such a simple half-second shot, but it took five times before Lin Qiu nodded!

The next shot is the shot of the searchlight accidentally falling from the ceiling of the studio. It is from this moment that the story of the film really begins.

…

"The Truman Show" has fully entered the intense filming stage.

The entire crew operated in an orderly yet extremely efficient manner.

Li Jie's performance was perfect, but actress Liu Xialing's performance was too natural.

"What you want is a sense of unnaturalness. You have to remember that you are an actor's actor!"

As a two-time Golden Phoenix Award-winning actress, Liu Xialing's acting skills naturally need not be said much.

But the acting is too natural and the character is lost.

The character played by Charling Lau is Truman's wife, but she is an actor's wife and does not have much affection for Truman.

Even when talking to Truman on weekdays, his face would be stiff and he would look for various opportunities to advertise various items.

At this time, Lin Qiu's S-level directing skills were fully demonstrated, and he quickly helped Liu Xialing find the feeling she should have.

The story of "The Truman" began to truly appear in front of everyone's eyes.

Throughout December, the crew was very focused.

Different from the previous movies, this movie also has many night shots, and there is a lot of shooting work at night.

Coupled with the constant switching of scenes, Lin Qiu is required to tell the details. This must be Lin Qiu's biggest workload in the movie!
