After Entering a Book, He Just Wants to be a Flower Vase

Chapter 35: What about watching a play? Does it look good?

"What's the point of adding this plot?"

Before "Operation Red Owl" started, at the last script reading meeting, Chu Yinlong frowned and looked at the screenwriter with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

"They are villains, and the identity of a lover is just to match Jiang Dao's temperament, and the audience does not need any emotional substitution."

The screenwriter shook his head disapprovingly: "Look, if we add an intimate scene here, Jess is left alone to stop Wei Jie in the end, obviously an abandoned son, which shows He Zhenhai's cold-blooded, ruthless and cruel from the side..."

Chu Yinlong said with a straight face: "It is impossible to pass the trial."

The screenwriter has long been well versed in side-firing: "It's not about real kissing... Besides, it's okay to shoot it first, and then cut it out if you can't make it through. You have filmed so many scenes, you should be used to such things as waste films. "

Chu Yinlong's tone became colder: "The waste film is a last resort, but this shot is really redundant."

The screenwriter suddenly became unhappy: "Why is it redundant? Originally, Xu Zhou would be punished for breaking in without knocking on the door. Adding a momentary intimate scene here is completely unobtrusive... Teacher Yao, what do you think?"

As if he didn't expect to be suddenly pulled as a foreign aid, Yao Yuhua coughed lightly: "I have no objection."

The screenwriter looked at Jiang Dao again.

Jiang Dao lazily leaned on the table, resting his chin on one hand, and said in a nonchalant tone, "I can do anything."

"The actors are fine, I think it's okay to shoot." The screenwriter said, taking another half step back, "Anyway, it's just a short shot, otherwise we'll shoot two versions at that time, and we'll see which one works better when we cut it."

Chu Yinlong looked down at the two lines newly added to the script, remained silent for a long time, and finally did not let go. He picked up the script and tapped on the table with the spine of the book, solemnly emphasizing: "I am the director, I have the final say."

The screenwriter rolled his eyes to the ceiling, leaned back slumped in his seat, raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and stopped talking.

After the script reading session was over, Jiang Dao went to the bathroom.

When he came out, he saw Chu Yinlong leaning against the sink, pinching his brows, his face full of exhaustion.

Hearing footsteps, Chu Yinlong opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Dao from the mirror.

Jiang Dao turned on the faucet and said with a smile, "I have held so many reading sessions, and I just found out today that you are really fierce at work."

Chu Yinlong sighed softly: "When I get to the set, I will be more fierce...Are you afraid?"

Jiang Dao said nonsense: "I'm afraid, your face was so dark just now, you feel like you're going to lift the table and beat someone up next time."

Chu Yinlong snorted softly from his nasal cavity.

After Jiang Dao washed his hands without wiping them, he shook them casually and was about to leave when he suddenly heard Chu Yinlong's voice: "Aren't you against making intimate scenes?"

"Huh?" Jiang Dao turned around and looked at Chu Yinlong.

There was no clue on Chu Yinlong's face, and his tone was very calm: "You have also read the script, and they want to give you...the scene for Jess and He Zhenhai, can you accept it?"

Jiang Dao raised his eyebrows when he thought of the dispute during the reading session just now.

"That part is actually nothing, it's just being pressed on the sofa." He said seriously, "I said that even if it is an agreement to film, I will seriously perform my duties as an actor, so you don't have to worry that I won't accept this kind of shot. .Don't say it's just being pressured, even if it's a kiss scene or a **** scene..."

"Cough!" Chu Yinlong interrupted Jiang Dao.

Seeing his reaction, Jiang Dao immediately confirmed his guess.

There was a smirk at the corner of his mouth, he approached Chu Yinlong, and deliberately lowered his voice: "Ah, I thought you really thought the plot was redundant, so you didn't want me to take this kind of scene?"

After finishing speaking, he raised his face slightly and blinked at Chu Yinlong: "Why?"

In the dim light, the young man's eyes flickered with narrowness, which made people feel a little... trembling.

Chu Yinlong stepped back half a step in a panic, and immediately stabilized his figure, without showing the slightest trace on his face.

"Not really." He said calmly, "You will have the opportunity to shoot this kind of plot in the future, and I don't need to block it. It's just that in this film, that scene is really superfluous."

Hearing this, Jiang Dao was surprised: "I have the opportunity to shoot this kind of plot?"

Chu Yinlong's tone was still light: "Yes. So, don't make random guesses."

Originally, Jiang Dao was only teasing on purpose, and didn't really think that Chu Yinlong was helping him to block something. Hearing what Chu Yinlong said seriously at this time, he was too embarrassed to continue playing, he smiled, turned and left the bathroom.

Walking back to the door of the conference room, Jiang Dao was about to push the door open when he suddenly heard the voice of the screenwriter coming from the room.

"How many movies has he made? He said it was 20 years since his debut, but when he was a child, that counted? He graduated less than ten years ago, and he has the aura of 'the only kung fu star of the young generation', and he wants to learn from the elders." The editor, director, and producer can grasp it...they may not have that ability."

The dissatisfaction in the tone was not concealed, and the screenwriter obviously still had a lot of opinions on the disputes in the previous reading meeting.

At this time, the main beauty said: "Forget it, after all, it is produced by his studio, and he is considered a good all-rounder among young people. Although he is a little anxious, he is still daring to try and pursue! One shot Small issues are not worth arguing about, and commercial films are not aimed at winning awards, so there is no need to dig into the details."

The screenwriter snorted: "Why would I have trouble with the young man? Didn't I follow him in the end? I can understand that he doesn't want the villain to arouse the audience's sympathy, otherwise the protagonist won't stand out enough... Alas, today's children They also like to watch this kind of black and white drama, so he has a reason."

Jiang Dao rested his fingers lightly on the doorknob, and silently listened to the conversation between the two with lowered eyes.

The main beauty smiled and said: "Fortunately, the script and the storyboard are finalized, and you don't have to stay on the set every day."

Hearing this, the screenwriter's tone became weird: "I heard he is more prestigious on the set?"

The main beauty sighed: "Probably learned from director Mu, thinking that a director can't direct a movie if he doesn't scold others. You haven't seen it before, he not only scolds newcomers, sometimes he even doesn't give face to old actors. "

Screenwriter tsk tsk: "Who made him the chief director and chief producer, and the investor is his relative..."

"Jiangdao!"

Jing Yu's voice suddenly came from the corner of the corridor, followed by the sound of footsteps.

"I thought you had already left! Hey, why don't we go have dinner together?"

No sound came from the conference room.

Jiang Dao pushed open the door very naturally, turned his head to Jing Yu and said with a smile: "I was about to leave, but suddenly remembered that something was left... Ah, Mr. Wang! Mr. Wu! You haven't left yet?"

Seeing that Jiang Dao's face was full of surprise and did not seem to be fake, he probably didn't hear anything, the screenwriter and the main beauty were relieved.

The main beauty smiled kindly: "The machine will start up next week, the script has been fine-tuned, and the storyboard needs to be changed...you go to eat first, take a good rest these two days, adjust the state, it will be very bitter after the machine is turned on, and then don't cry .”

Jing Yu was a little nervous at what he said, raised his hand and scratched his hair, nodded in a panic, then grabbed Jiang Dao's wrist, and pulled him to the door.

Jiang Dao leaned forward to pick up the script he had left on the conference table, and was dragged out with Jing Yu's strength, not forgetting to close the door behind him.

Guessing that the two walked away, the screenwriter frowned again: "What's the relationship between Jiang Dao and Xiao Chu? When Xiao Chu asked him to play Jess, I felt something was wrong. He was too beautiful, and his temperament was completely inappropriate. Hi... there's no need to make such a big change to the character for Enoshima, right?"

Zhumei shook her head helplessly: "It's normal for young people to not think carefully when doing things. They probably want to praise him, but they are a little impatient."

After speaking, the two immersed themselves in the final fine-tuning of the script and the storyboard, without saying anything more.

Two days later, on Monday, "Operation Red Owl" was officially launched.

Due to the particularity of action movies, the shots in the top scenes are all "literary dramas" that can be shot in the studio. After all the literary dramas are filmed, the shooting of the martial arts part in the studio will start, and then there will be outdoor scenes that are more demanding on the weather, and several sections of fighting and drag racing with the highest risk factor will be arranged for the last shooting. Actors were injured, which affected the progress of filming.

Jiang Dao was wearing a baggy sleeveless vest, leaning on Yao Yuhua's shoulder like a boneless man, watching the men in front of him play wildly.

"Stop." Halfway through the performance, Chu Yinlong suddenly raised his hand to interrupt, "Jing Yu, what's the matter with you? Xu Zhou is a policeman, but he is now an undercover agent in a criminal organization. How did you do character analysis? Wai Du Didn’t you understand at the time? Or did you return all the things taught in school?”

"Yes, I'm sorry!" Jing Yu hurriedly apologized, "I'll try again!"

"Try it? This is not for you to audition." Chu Yinlong was merciless, "Go to the side to watch how other people act, when will you learn to understand, and when will you shoot your scene again... Jiang Dao!"

When his name was suddenly called, Ejima stood up straight.

Sure enough, Chu Yinlong didn't save him face: "How about watching a play? Is it good? Bring you a sofa?"

Jiang Dao: ...

Chu Yinlong had a straight face and a cold tone: "When you enter this venue, you are Jess, a member of a criminal organization, He Zhenhai's lover, not you Jiang Dao! Control your expressions and body language, don't think that the camera can't catch you With your face, you can be lazy and think about what you should do!"

Jiang Dao nodded obediently: "I was wrong."

After training several people in a circle, including two actors and a lighting engineer, Chu Yinlong gestured to the assistant director: "Skip Xu Zhou's scene, and shoot the later one first."

The assistant director seemed to have gotten used to Chu Yinlong's rhythm for a long time, and immediately organized lighting, props, camera and others to get busy.

On this day, the filming continued until late at night, and it was only when Jing Yu was scolded and cried by Chu Yinlong that the work was hastily called off. The moment Chu Yinlong left the studio, almost everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

Jiang Dao grabbed a pack of tissues from the table and handed them to Jing Yu who was sobbing in the corner: "You..."

"I know I didn't do well!" Jing Yu wiped his face, "I...I just, just...I have worked hard! I have worked hard to get into the role, but I, I really have never been a policeman , I have never been a criminal, I have never killed a person, I have never even killed a chicken..."

Seeing Jing Yu crying like this, talking nonsense, Jiang Dao laughed unkindly.

Jing Yu raised his head and glared at him: "You're still laughing! You've been scolded a lot, and you can still laugh!"
