Chapter 99: Superb Acting Skills, Teaching Zhang Jiuquan a Lesson
Tang Zhou failed to catch up with Han Zhou in the end.
To be precise, Gui Hai Yidao failed to catch up with Cheng Shifei in the end.
Because the two of them were just pretending.
Half of the crew in Tang City saw Gui Hai Yidao riding a bicycle chasing Cheng Shifei, who was riding an electric motorcycle.
The cause of the incident is actually very simple.
Han Zhou didn't send the complete script to everyone until more and more people joined the group, and then the complete script was sent out.
Tang Zhou was delighted to think that he and Shangguan Haitang, played by Ye Manyi, were a perfect match.
I didn't expect that after reading the script, I would be so upset!
The nominal male lead of this drama "The Number One Under Heaven" is Cheng Shifei, but the actual male protagonist should be the villain Tiedan Shenhou.
Because Tiedan Shenhou is the only male character who connects the entire play.
The nominal female lead of this drama "The World's Number One" is Princess Yunluo, but the actual female lead should be Shangguan Haitang.
Shangguan Haitang is the only female character with an independent story and multiple love relationships.
After receiving the order to find the missing Cheng Shifei, Shangguan Haitang went to Fugui Village to look for him and met the richest man in the world, Wan Sanqian.
This character, who was derived from Shen Wansan, is smart and wise, as wealthy as a country. In the play, even the emperor has to respect him.
And it was this role that made me fall in love with Shangguan Haitang in a very funny way.
Later , after finding Cheng Shifei, he was found to be poisoned and needed to find the Tianshan Snow Lotus to detoxify.
Shangguan Haitang sneaked into the palace and was noticed by Emperor Zhengde.
In the end, in order to save Gui Hai Yidao, Shangguan Haitang agreed to Wan Sanqian's request and married him.
But, in the end, Haitang was ambushed by Liu Sheng Piaoxu, who had been pretending to disperse his power, in the final conspiracy, and died.
From the beginning to the end, there was only a little bit of unclear feelings between Gui Hai Yidao and Shangguan Haitang, and they were unable to be together until the very end.
After reading the script, Tang Zhou realized that he had been fooled.
He pedaled his bicycle and started chasing Han Zhou who was riding an electric motorcycle.
Han Zhou was not the kind of person who would suffer a loss in the face of danger. When he saw that the situation was not right, he just ran away.
However, Tang Zhou really had no idea what to do with Han Zhou. Tang Zhou meant that Han Zhou had to treat him to a meal of Xi City's famous Sichuan cuisine "Interpretation of the Three Kingdoms" in order to solve the problem.
For Han Zhou, this was more painful than killing him, so he just ran away.
At the filming location of Yuantouzhu, Han Zhou always felt chilly.
Of course Ye Manyi would not chase after Han Zhou, but who could bear the resentment of a resentful woman?
Ye Manyi thought that she and Tang Zhou could play a screen couple and finish a play happily.
I never thought that I would find out now that I would have to marry the old and fat Wan Sanqian in the drama.
However, Ye Manyi did not change the script or have any other ideas, because Ye Manyi could see that in this script design, Shangguan Haitang had a lot of plots and the character was rich, which would be very popular with the audience.
Of course not. In the previous life, the line "Have you seen snow dancing in the world?" is not the eternal pain in the hearts of Duan Tianya fans or Liu Sheng sisters fans, but the eternal pain in the hearts of Haitang fans.
Piaoxu used the trick of "Snow Falling on the Earth", and all the red leaves on the tree fell. The crabapple died beautifully.
This scene will forever remain in the history of martial arts. Perhaps this blow was really painful.
At this time, Han Zhou was acting out the role of Cheng Shifei, who became stupid after being poisoned.
While Han Zhou was preparing, he asked Zheng Xiaolong to come out and act out this scene.
Zheng Xiaolong is now considered to be Han Zhou's apprentice. This time he came to the crew to play the young Gui Hai Yidao.
Zheng Xiaolong looked at the script and wondered how a fool could act.
Soon, Zheng Xiaolong played a fool who was not suitable for martial arts dramas but suitable for rural dramas.
A six in the left hand and a seven in the right hand.
Start walking.
The left foot scratched the soil, and the right foot scratched the ground.
Many people were amused.
Ye Manyi waved: "Come here."
Zheng Xiaolong returned to normal and ran over: "Sister Ye."
Ye Manyi hugged Zheng Xiaolong's little bald head: "Oh, so cute."
Tang Zhou wished that it was himself who was being hugged.
Soon, Han Zhou finished his preparations and began his performance.
The character Cheng Shifei is responsible for the comedy, so he is a bit silly in his setting, but he is actually very smart.
His unique skill is to play the fool.
But in this plot, he was poisoned and his intelligence regressed to less than five years old.
So, actually in this play, Han Zhou needs to play not one fool, but three fools.
To be precise, it should be.
A little gangster acting as a fool.
A fool with great martial arts skills.
After being poisoned, a fool becomes mentally retarded and behaves like a child.
Because the plot is not shot according to the script, but according to the different schedules of each actor.
So, this is Han Zhou’s first fool segment in this performance.
However, Han Zhou did not perform according to the original version.
In the original version, it is easy to play the role of a fool, and the original protagonist himself is a professional fool.
When performing here, Han Zhou's appearance did not change, so it is not suitable to perform with the same routine.
Han Zhou...went straight into the role and simulated a five-year-old child.
He turned into a five-year-old child, jumping around and being happy. His happiness was different from that acted out by adults, and that kind of innocence surprised many actors and crew members on the scene.
This kind of acting skills... is it too strong?
However, right here, Han Zhou was about to act out the feeling of spitting foam due to the poison, and then act as if his intelligence had decreased by one year.
As the assistant director recommended by Han Sisheng, and actually the executive director and real director of the crew, Zhou Xuyun was a little surprised.
Zhou Xuyun is a TV actor who loves his job, so he is not very interested in movies and has not seen "Hello Mr. Tree".
Of course, if he were given the opportunity to be a film director, he would probably immerse himself in the world of movies every day.
"Cut! This shot is good." After Zhang Jiuqun confirmed that Zhou Xuyun indicated that the shot was good, he started shouting.
Zhang Jiuqun has learned a lot from Zhou Xuyun in the past month, but he is still in the learning stage.
"Stage staff, set up!"
"Lens track, speed!"
"Lighting engineer, we need some fill light here, get a reflector."
“Get ready!”
At this time, Cheng Shifei had just left for a while and didn't want to leave anymore, so he sat on the ground and threw a tantrum.
Just like a real little kid throwing a tantrum.
It’s like a child walks into a toy store and sees a toy car and insists on buying it, but the parents don’t want to buy it because the previous car they bought was broken, and the child then throws a tantrum.
It doesn't look like acting at all.
It was indeed not acting, Han Zhou was directly immersed in the role of a child.
Princess Yunluo, played by An Lan, had no choice but to pull Cheng Shifei to the bushes to rest.
At this time, Cheng Shifei leaned against Princess Yunluo and said, "Um, brother Cheng Shifei, are you good friends with me?"
In the plot, when joining the assessment of Huolong Villa, Princess Yunluo took the assessment and deceived Cheng Shifei.
Although Cheng Shifei pretended that nothing was wrong, he was deceived by Princess Yunluo, whom he regarded as a friend. In fact, he was very heartbroken, so he just left.
Now that Cheng Shifei has been found, he has been poisoned and doesn't even know who he is or that his name is Cheng Shifei.
It was not easy for An Lan to get into this scene, but An Lan acted it out as if it were a different situation.
I was thinking about really parting with Han Zhou, and I acted with this kind of worry.
"As long as I see him, my sister will be very happy!"
Everyone can see with the naked eye that An Lan's acting skills and Han Zhou's acting skills are not on the same level at all.
Han Zhou's acting skills are always brilliant in movies, and his top-notch acting skills can overwhelm his co-actors.
As for An Lan's acting skills, it can only be said that they are suitable for use in TV dramas.
Zhang Jiuquan: "Click, this one passed!"
An Lan was a little surprised: "Ah? You passed it already? How about trying again?"
Han Zhou stood up and said, "This is a TV series, not a movie. There's no problem. Why do we need to start over?"
An Lan: "I think... I can perform better."
But the fact is, unless you are making a movie, no one will spend too much time on one shot.
There are too many shots in TV dramas, so as long as the quality is acceptable, it will be accepted.
So many times, when TV dramas show scenes with telephone poles and cars in the background, the director doesn’t notice it because of the huge workload.
Only then did An Lan realize that making movies and TV series were different.
Han Zhou: "Your acting is OK. If you act in a movie, you may need to find the feeling. But if you act in a TV series, this is good enough."
Han Zhou never said that he wanted to shoot a high-quality TV series where every episode would be like a movie.
That's something only the central bank can afford.
Han Zhou only cares about the overall quality of the TV series. Striving for perfection will hurt the wallet, and Han Zhou cannot afford it.
However, after filming this scene, Han Zhou has been paying attention to Zhang Jiuquan.
At this time, Zhang Jiuquan was watching the monitor.
Han Zhou winked at Zhou Xuyun.
Zhou Xuyun nodded.
Zhou Xuyun: "Director Zhang, do you think this shot is suitable? If it is edited into the final film, the effect should be good."
Zhang Jiuquan: "Yes, this shot is OK, the effect is achieved, and it can be said to be wonderful."
"There are so few scenes of this kind of acting in TV dramas."
"If it's edited in, the story will be connected."
"At first I was poisoned by gossip, and then..."
At this point, Zhang Jiuquan was stunned for a moment.
Zhou Xuyun: "What's wrong?"
Zhang Jiuquan frowned: "Hmm? I feel like something is not right."
"What's wrong?"
Zhang Jiuquan rubbed his bearded chin and tried hard to think, but he couldn't think of anything wrong .
Zhou Xuyun: "Is this shot okay?"
Zhang Jiuquan: “No…”
Now Zhang Jiuquan’s heart told him that this shot was not okay.
But it is clear that this lens is very good.
how so?
Zhang Jiuquan was stunned and started to think about it carefully.
Han Zhou clapped his hands: "Everyone, take a break, take a break first!"
The staff around were all resting on the spot or replenishing water.
Zhang Jiuquan raised his head and looked at Zhou Xuyun: "Old Zhou, something doesn't seem right."
"I always felt that there was something wrong with these two shots, but I didn't expect it to be..."
Zhou Xuyun: "If you think there is a problem, then there must be a problem. So where is the problem?"
Han Zhou patted the dust off his clothes and said, "Think about it, think about it carefully."
Zhang Jiuquan knew that the fun was about to begin.
Did I do something wrong?
Soon, Zhang Jiuquan took out the script and started reading it. After reading it for a long time, he finally came to his senses.
"No! The order is wrong!"
"It should be Cheng Shifei who threw a tantrum and refused to leave first, and then talked about this with Princess Yunluo here."
"Then he became ill and his IQ dropped by another year. He was on the verge of death. Two shots were wrong!"
If the order of these two shots is wrong, then everything will be wrong.
Because the original plot should be that Cheng Shifei becomes stupid and has a scene with Princess Yunluo, then Princess Yunluo opens her heart, and then Cheng Shifei is poisoned again. At this time, Princess Yunluo feels even more distressed, and then tries her best to find Yunying eggs, and then takes Cheng Shifei to be rescued by an old couple.
But now that the two lenses have been swapped, something is wrong.
Because Cheng Shifei was probably in a state of illness, Princess Yunluo slipped while trying to save him, and they both fainted and needed to be rescued.
But now Cheng Shifei has already fallen ill, and then with the plot of throwing a tantrum and opening up his heart, there is no opportunity for both of them to faint, and the whole plot is messed up.
It's completely different.
If Han Zhou's acting was not good, the weirdness wouldn't be so obvious, and the order of the two shots could be changed.
But Han Zhou is just a good actor.
The shot that should be at the end shows the liveliness and playfulness of a five-year-old child.
But in the previous shot, he appeared younger, more helpless, and more dependent on Princess Yunluo.
This is where problems arise.
Zhang Jiuquan was a little confused. How could such a mistake happen?
Han Zhou: "I was the one who edited your shot script."
"Jiu, you still lack a lot of experience to become a real director."
The study in the past month has made Zhang Jiuqun inflated and made him think that he can be a director.
So on the set, Zhang Jiuquan still had a lot of idol baggage, so Zhou Xuyun had to call him "director".
Han Zhou did this on purpose just to teach Zhang Jiuquan a lesson.
Han Zhou: “Imagine if we were shooting a large scene.”
"It cost millions to build a huge set."
“After the last shot is done, we need to blast the scene.”
"As a result, a shot was missed in the front, and you have already blown up the scene."
Zhang Jiuquan's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Han Zhou: "Teacher Zhou and I discussed this matter and did it just to teach you a lesson."
"You're still a long way from being a director."
Zhang Jiuqian used to be an assistant director. To be honest, he was just the leader of the personnel coordination team. The first time he really became an assistant director was when he collaborated with Han Zhou on "This Man From Earth".
However, Han Zhou's shooting style is very detailed and he has the final say on everything.
Therefore, Zhang Jiuquan did not feel many of the things that an assistant director should have done.
Now the positions have changed, Zhang Jiuqun is the director and Han Zhou is the first screenwriter on the set.
Many times, as a director, I have to discuss filming with the first screenwriter and discuss on-the-spot script changes.
That is, the last time the script was changed on the spot, Han Zhou did something naughty and changed the order of two shots.
From the beginning till now, Zhang Jiuquan, who was directing for the first time in his life, was so proud of himself that he didn't realize there was a big pit here.
Only then did Zhang Jiuquan feel cold sweat all over his body.
Han Zhou, the number one screenwriter, is his own boss. He will not harm himself, because that would be tantamount to ruining "The World's Number One", so this is just a pit, just a reminder.
But what if the first screenwriter is an outsider?
Is it possible that a competitor bribed the first screenwriter to sabotage the show? It only takes one shot to destroy a key scene that can only be shot once, and the whole show is ruined?
Even if it's not so extreme, is it possible that after filming is finished, you would have to repeatedly invite the actors who have already finished filming to come back for additional scenes?
If the other party's schedule is too busy, wouldn't it delay the release of the entire TV series?
If I become a film director in the future, wouldn’t that be a greater loss?
This is still a small matter. After all, most of the time, it can be remedied.
The question is, if you become a gala director, or the director of some large-scale advertisement or event in the future, and you make a mistake of this magnitude, wouldn't your career as a director be ruined?
Han Zhou put his index and middle fingers together and tapped the camera casing: "You and Eryong went to the massage parlor yesterday, right?"
"You still have time to do this, but no time to read the original script for the scene you are going to shoot today?"
Zhang Jiuquan, a 28-year-old young man, has a big beard and looks like he is in his forties, but he lowered his head like a primary school student who has made a mistake.
Han Zhou: "You are now the director of "Number One Under Heaven", a play that New World has staked everything on."
"If this play fails and my company goes bankrupt, I can get back on my feet in half a year."
"You'll never be a director again."
"In order to maintain the director's authority on the set, I will say that this incident was my fault and my problem."
"Next time this kind of problem occurs, do you know how much damage it will do to a director's authority?"
Not to mention anything else, even if there was no money invested in this drama, just because Lu Jin, Tang Zhou and Ye Manyi joined, a few people from entertainment companies who were listed as the nominal producer team could use such an issue to trample the director's authority into the mud.
When the director can't hold his head up, they can do whatever they want.
Only then did Zhang Jiuquan realize that he had not just made a small mistake today, but had almost ruined his entire career.
Even if he didn't have a professional career, he would still be far away from being called a "great director".
"Boss..." Zhang Jiu was completely numb: "I was wrong."
Han Zhou sighed: "Ah, it's my fault."
"The New World is too small and has no ability to resist risks. Such a small incident could bring about the end of the New World."
"If you change to a big entertainment company or a big media company, they will allow you to shoot a few movies and grow slowly."
Zhang Jiuquan heard Han Zhou say this and looked up hurriedly: "Boss, this time it's my fault. I won't make this mistake next time!"
Han Zhou sneered: "You'll have another chance next time. Go and discuss with Chen Xiaoyong about rearranging the lens rails!"
Here, Han Zhou gathered everyone together and said, "I'm sorry, everyone. I marked the wrong order of two shots when I marked the shot order. I have to correct it again."
"Please restore the scene."
It doesn’t matter to others, and the actors don’t care about it either.
The field staff were all numb.
Dragging such a large machine around on muddy ground damaged a lot of parts, and now they have to be restored.
Oh, God, please take me away!
Several field staff members lay on the ground and used cement scrapers to smooth the dry mud road as if they were applying cement plaster.
…
New music APP.
The highly recommended "Kill That Changshan Man" dominated the screen.
In the office of New Music, a music editor was stunned when he saw this recommendation .
After the song was posted, it was cross-reviewed by several music editors.
Han Zhou's songs, niche rock music.
It's a bit more like a ballad with ordinary emotions and tension.
Even the music editors don't want to give this kind of song a recommendation.
Because of Han Zhou, he didn’t sign any new music contract at all.
Even though Han Zhou’s songs are only released on new music platforms now, as long as he wants, he can release them on the other four music software on the market.
And now, how come this song has been so popular?
Soon, they saw something even more terrifying.
The data flow started to move.
Someone clicks on a secondary page for recommended songs in a certain category.
"Kill that Changshan Man" is listed first on the second-level page.
Then exit and look at another music chart.
"Kill the Changshan Man" directly climbed onto the list, and the data was very strange.
"What's going on?"
Soon, someone discovered that the official Weibo account of New Music released a large cover of "Kill That Changshan Man".
It's obvious that the cover was specially shot. Han Zhou is shirtless without any T-shirt or shirt. He just puts on a black suit.
Then hang the guitar diagonally.
The muscle lines are clearly visible.
The large black and white images are very eye-catching.
"Ah? Official account promotion?"
There are even more weird things coming up.
Some people have discovered that now on the new music software, no matter which music chart you click on, a cover recommendation of "Kill That Changshan Man" will appear.
If you don’t see clearly, you’d think it was the number one song on the charts.
Only a closer look will reveal that it is an advertisement.
The whole new music, unless you don’t watch the new songs, you will definitely see the advertisement of this song.
"What does this mean? Have we signed a contract with Han Zhou and are we going to start promoting it?!"
Someone went to ask, and the answer was no.
Soon, someone discovered that the cover character of the new issue of Southern Entertainment Magazine was Han Zhou.
The cover photo was a picture of Han Zhou shirtless in a suit with a guitar hanging on his chest.
The title of the cover character is.
Musical Genius, Leaping Soul
Someone complained: "Looks like this photo, the title should be "Muscular handsome man, jumping X impulse"."
Someone analyzed: "The photo attracts female readers, and the title attracts male readers."
"Hmm? I still want to know why we are promoting this song."
The editor-in-chief of the music department came back from a meeting and said, "I have something to tell you. For the next three weeks, you won't have to promote the top recommendations on all the second-level pages. Also, the four main images on the homepage have been reduced to three. We'll reallocate the recommendation resources later."
Someone whispered, "Editor-in-Chief, is it all "Kill the Changshan Man"?"
The editor-in-chief nodded: "Don't ask. If you ask, it's because the other party has too much money. I heard that all the first-line singers will not release singles in the past month. The next time someone releases a song, it should be An Lan's first album."
"Take the next three weeks of this month as paid vacation."
Han Zhou’s fans and music fans excitedly clicked on the new music promotion of Han Zhou’s songs when they saw it for the first time.
However, the version they are about to hear is completely different from Han Zhou's live version.
A slight change in the arrangement makes a world of difference in the soul and spirit.
