Chapter 482 Don’t Fool the Audience
Yang Lingyue also went to Jinmen to see the layout of the interior filming location for "The Wind".
Originally, he was going to take the Beijing-Tianjin high-speed rail, but Fan Bingbing insisted on following him. Yang Lingyue didn't want to be in the limelight, so he changed to traveling in an RV.
It can be said that all the interior scenes of "The Wind" were shot in Jinmen, while the exterior scenes were shot in Qingdao, Dalian, and Bashang Grassland.
The scenes of meetings, meals, and accommodation are at Jinmen No. 1 Hotel.
It is a hotel built in the British architectural style in 1922. The scene where Bai Xiaonian said "I don't believe you, get hard" at the dinner table was filmed in the hotel lobby, so you can know that this hotel is not big.
This hotel was originally called Teleti Hotel. It was built by an Indian, and his name was Teleti.
The south building of the Jinmen Cadres Club is the bedroom scene where Li Ningyu and Gu Xiaomeng, Gu Xiaomeng and Wu Battalion's rival scenes were filmed.
Prince Qing's Mansion is the filming location of the headquarters.
"The Wind" is one of the five key gift films in 2009. The filming work was carried out in secret. The cast and crew all signed confidentiality agreements, and Yang Lingyue was no exception.
Therefore, when Yang Lingyue looked at the layout, he only looked at the internal props. With a sufficient budget, screenwriter Mai Jia to check it, and Hanamaki's financial staff to keep an eye on it, there would naturally be no problems.
The props are extremely exquisite, and the curtains are all custom-made according to the style of the Republic of China, but they are all dark colors. After all, it is a spy system, and if you use light colors, people will laugh.
Looking at the various props that were even more elaborate than those in the original movie, Yang Lingyue was extremely satisfied. He held Mai's hand and said that it was exquisite and hard work.
Mai Jia said very reservedly: "Everyone is very attentive."
Checking the bedrooms in the south building of the cadre club one by one, Fan Bingbing changed into Li Ningyu's cheongsam and walked in while trying to get a seat. His expression became lonely and cold. He still held a white lady's cigarette in his right hand, and the smoke went from scarlet to red. His lips blew in the direction of Yang Lingyue.
Not only did he act it out, but he also acted it out.
Yang Lingyue nodded happily, at least this outfit was absolutely stunning.
I picked up the camera and took a photo, and after doing my hair, it could be used as a makeup photo.
Yang Lingyue waved to Fan Bingbing, then looked around at everyone and said calmly: "Come here, I will help you do your hair. Please go out."
Fan Bingbing's face tightened and he looked unhappy.
The rest of the people behind the scenes hurriedly left the room, at a speed that made them wish they had more legs.
Fan Bingbing walked slowly to Yang Lingyue and said shyly and angrily: "Yang Lingyue, that's too much."
"Stop talking nonsense and turn around."
Yang Lingyue gestured expressionlessly.
Fan Bingbing gritted his teeth and turned around obediently, leaning on the edge of the table and closing his eyes.
Then Yang Lingyue picked up the comb and hairpins and gave Fan Bingbing a gentle side-parted hairstyle.
"Um?"
"Uh-huh, don't move."
"No, are you really doing your hair?"
"nonsense."
"Hahahahaha."
"Don't shake, I really want to take a makeup photo."
Three minutes later, Yang Lingyue looked at his work with satisfaction and marveled.
Fan Bingbing was also very happy looking at the photos on the camera. The photos were really good.
Then the crew looked at the two people leaving the room with surprised expressions on their faces, and they all looked at Yang Lingyue with sympathy.
"Teacher Mai, take a look."
Yang Lingyue handed the camera to the Mai family as if he didn't notice it.
Mai Jia looked at the camera, then at Fan Bingbing, marveling, and then made a thumbs up sign.
"It's Li Ningyu."
Fan Bingbing was very proud when he heard this.
At this time, Fan Bingbing’s makeup artist cousin came over and took a look and said, “Look at this character’s makeup. Doesn’t her hair style have waves?”
Yang Lingyue and Mai Jia frowned at the same time.
Fan Bingbing subconsciously shrank his neck, and then asked weakly: "Is there anything wrong?"
Yang Lingyue said softly: "Teacher Mai, please tell them. If you raise such a question again, don't blame me for getting angry."
Mai Jia coughed lightly and spread the word.
"Well, the timeline in the movie is 1941, and the location is Nanjing. Those who work in aircraft maintenance are not allowed to perm their hair.
This is true not only in the areas ruled by the Kuomintang, but also in the Japanese and puppet areas, let alone our base areas.
In addition to the reasons prescribed by the "Eight Nos", there is also the culture.
At first, perms were very expensive. The most expensive ones cost 60 yuan, while the cheaper ones cost as much as 8 yuan. Therefore, some wealthy wives or women had perms to show their status. However, when perms became the main hairstyle for actors, dancers, and high-end prostitutes, Normal people will get less heat. "
Yang Lingyue then said to the production director of "The Wind": "Lao Zhang, please inform the cast and crew about today's events and strengthen their humanistic qualities. It doesn't matter if you fool yourself, but don't fool the audience."
No one thought that Yang Lingyue was making a fuss out of a molehill. Not to mention the props, lines, and plot were so sophisticated, people would have used sunglasses to scare Jiang Wen during the audition.
Asking this kind of question about character makeup clearly means you haven't done your homework.
The cousin's face turned red with shame, while Fan Bingbing fell into deep thought. She seemed to truly understand the meaning of "actors should improve their humanistic qualities" that her husband mentioned many times. People who engage in culture must understand culture.
Lao Zhang responded, but in his heart he was thinking: It is worthy of such an achievement at such a young age. This move from a moral high ground immediately created a "professional" and "detailed" impression in the minds of all the crew members, and also greatly enhanced his voice.
There are many people with the same mentality as Lao Zhang.
However, Mai Jia did not think so. When he first adapted the script, Yang Lingyue found many faults and criticized the screenwriters of Huayi to pieces, not to mention the level of care in the production of props.
Mai Jia once talked about this with Jiang Wei. It is a blessing for any director to meet such an investor, and it is also a blessing for an actor to meet such a director.
Mai Jia tried to smooth things over and said, "This matter is also my fault and that of the history consultant. We didn't do a good job of popularizing history for everyone."
Yang Lingyue waved his hand and said, "You have done a good job. At least I haven't found any faults so far. Okay, that's it. I have to go to school today."
On the way back to Beijing, Fan Bingbing squeezed next to Yang Lingyue with a smile, looked at a bunch of English on the computer, and asked suspiciously, "What are you looking at?"
"Related reviews of "The Martian."
Yang Lingyue explained.
When the website of "The Martian" was halfway updated, the full version was made into an electronic version and posted on Amazon.
This move did not cause readers to complain, but instead received a lot of praise, because the previous updates were too damn slow and readers were too tortured.
