Chapter 229: Too Shameless (4k) Ok? Come to my studio and be a boss together? Wu Mu looked at Sun Yueqing with a strange expression. Are you sure you are using both swords together and not just trying to get my brother Tongzi's performance card unilaterally? It's already tiring for A Tong to take care of a lying monster like me, so don't add to his burden. Sun Yueqing was quite interested in her own creative ideas and said happily, "I will open my own studio sooner or later anyway, so it would be a good idea to merge it with yours." She said happily before meeting Wu Mu's eyes. She was stunned for a moment, and then she took a moment to appreciate the meaning of his expression. The whole person was pissed off. "I don't dislike you, but you dislike me!?" Sun Yueqing widened her eyes in disbelief.
Wu Mu laughed out loud, "We have a good relationship, but we still have to be clear about the money involved. If you really come to my studio, I'm afraid my commission will be higher than your current company." Sun Yueqing was so angry that she punched him directly, "You are really a dog now! Your status is lower than mine now, why do you get my commission instead of me getting yours!" Wu Mu said honestly, "I think my studio has great potential." Sun Yueqing glared at him, "Teacher Wu Mu, you are so confident that I am unfamiliar with you." Wu Mu continued to work as a civil servant in the crew, but the impact of his Phaeton car endorsement was not over yet. This incident not only caused a lot of heat among netizens, but also had a considerable impact within various circles. For example, the Qingquan mineral water endorsement and the brand that wanted to renew the contract with him that was mentioned in the company before. Qingquan Mineral Water originally only planned to hire him as a spokesperson for its product line, and the asking price was only 18 million. Now that the Phaeton endorsement has come out, he has been transformed from the fixed distilled water product to the spokesperson for the entire distilled water product line, and his asking price has also been increased to 26 million. The brand that wanted to renew the contract was already unhappy about his unreasonable price increase and was reconsidering whether to renew the contract with him. Then when this happened, they immediately sent someone to contact us and said that they accepted his offer. The common request of both parties is to sign the contract and make an official announcement as soon as possible, obviously with the purpose of taking advantage of the current online popularity. Wu Mu naturally accepted everything without any concern. After spending two days shooting the new endorsement promotional materials, the crew's filming in Beijing finally ended. The next step is to move to Spring City to continue the subsequent filming. Chuncheng, in front of the old medical college in Anning District. Wu Mu, who had been as lazy as a civil servant before, couldn't be so lazy this time. Chuncheng is his home shooting location, and most of his shooting tasks are carried out in Chuncheng. Today is the second day since the crew moved here, and he finally has his second scene. The set was preparing for filming, and he, the protagonist, was sitting in the lounge area flipping through the script.
Sun Yueqing, another leading actor on the set today, sat next to him and looked at him curiously, "Didn't you memorize the relevant lines a long time ago?" "Just get familiar with it beforehand." Wu Mu replied. Director Wang Ren's story is quite simple. It was previously filmed in Beijing. It is about three middle-aged protagonists who, because of an accident, start to re-investigate a case from eighteen years ago. And now in Chuncheng, the case that happened eighteen years ago is being filmed. The specific case is that the heroine Lin Mo in the play grew up in an unfortunate family. Both her parents died, her younger brother was sent to an orphanage, and her guardian uncle was a scum who sexually assaulted her. When she grew up, she was admitted to a university in her brother's city, hoping to escape the misfortunes of the past. It was very successful at the beginning. She was reunited with her brother, finally became independent in life, and met a boy she liked, who was the character played by Wu Mu. But soon the misfortunes of the past caught up with her. The scum uncle came looking for her, and a Hong Kong businessman set his sights on her. Being forced into a desperate situation step by step and falling into darkness again, she exploded and killed the Hong Kong businessman who violated her and a hostess who colluded with her to harm her. After dismembering the man, she cut off one of her own fingers to pretend that she was the one who was killed. She then planned to take on the identity of the hostess and escape again with the person she loved. But her boyfriend, who had lived here since childhood, could not accept the fact that she had killed two people and became hesitant. Then the completely desperate heroine chose to jump into the river to commit suicide, and her boyfriend also jumped in to save her. She was saved, but her boyfriend died. These are the main plot lines. The other characters, including the middle-aged protagonist Wang An, who is investigating the cause of his son's death, and the police officer who was previously in charge of the case, all revolve around this main plot line. The scene to be filmed later is the first scene where Wu Mu's character meets the heroine Lin Mo. Sun Yueqing, who was sitting nearby and watching, saw where he turned to and said with a smile, "Don't mention it, I quite like the script that Director Wang revised. It feels much more reasonable than before." When she mentioned this, she couldn't help but complain, "What normal girl would like a man who is so persistent and uses moral blackmail?" "Look at what he did in the previous plot. He was a high school student who failed the entrance exam and ran to the gate of the medical school pretending to welcome the new students to see the girls. He chased after people every day. When it rained during military training, he, an outsider, ran over to hold an umbrella in front of everyone. Isn't this a bad reputation and social demise?" "And if he doesn't like him, he will jump into the river to prove himself, saying that if he doesn't die, he will be with him. If I meet such a person in real life, I will run as far away as possible!" Wu Mule, "You don't like it, but others do. This way of pursuing girls was quite common in the past." The story takes place in the 1990s. Considering the overall social atmosphere at that time, this method was relatively common. Sun Yueqing shook her head and said directly, "Lin Mo won't like it either. This may be considered a temporary light, but I don't think it will be a light that will make her completely despair after losing so much since she was a child. This part is not convincing enough." Before Wang Ren made the revisions, this character was indeed more of a tool. After Wu Mu joined the show, although the main purpose of the modification was to reduce the difficulty of Wu Mu's performance, objectively speaking, it did make the relationship look more convincing, or at least more in line with the concepts of modern audiences. All the persistent plots were deleted and replaced with a more passive and mutually attractive plot. "Your first performance later will determine whether our relationship will leave a convincing first impression. Are you sure?" Sun Yueqing joked. Wu Mu shook his head honestly, "No." Sun Yueqing exclaimed, "You acted pretty well before, why are you so unconfident now?" Wu Mu was helpless. The past was the past, and the present is now. Before, he could rely on the system skills of recreating scenes to create an effect that was "so real as to be indistinguishable from the real thing."
But this effect is not available everywhere. For example, in the shot that will follow, there are no special emotions or actions, it's just a feeling. In this case, he can't apply it to the situation he has experienced. But this scene is not difficult. Even if there are no eye-catching operations, it shouldn’t be a drag, right? Wu Mu thought to himself. Because of Wu Mu’s outstanding performance before, it was no surprise that his second scene attracted the attention of the entire crew. All the crew members who had nothing to do at the moment came over to watch the fun, wanting to see how Wu Mu and the others would perform and whether they could replicate the amazing performance from before. Not only the veteran actor trio Cui Fu and his friends, but also Yang Rongfa and Wang Ren are very concerned about this issue. If Wu Mu can continue his previous performance, it would mean that the previous performance was not just a flash in the pan for Wu Mu, but that he really has the ability in performance. It directly broke his previous reputation of awkward acting. Under everyone's watchful eyes, the assistant director came up and explained the play to Wu Mu, introducing the upcoming actions in detail. "Teacher Wu Mu, you are here with your friend to welcome the new students to see the girls. You just need to focus on your friend. After your friend finds someone, you just sit there and listen to the tape. When Lin Mo comes to you to ask for directions, you just need to look up." "Okay." Wu Mu nodded to indicate that he understood. The set was quickly set up and the actors took their positions. Wu Mu sat leaning against the actor who played his friend, feeling a little uneasy. I already have great talent as an actor, and this is a scene that doesn't require me to express any emotions, so I shouldn't be ridiculed by everyone for my awkward acting like before. He glanced at his surroundings guiltily. then Feeling the sunlight above his head, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind. Feeling the thoughts in his mind, Wu Mu was stunned for a moment, then he reacted immediately. It’s the flash of inspiration effect brought to him by the talent mentioned in the previous skill introduction! After hesitating for a moment, he simply moved a few steps to the side and waved to his "friend" next to him, "Brother Li, let's sit a little further to the side." what? Brother Li looked at him obviously confused. Was he going to change the shooting position set by the director on the spot? this. He looked at director Wang Renna from the bottom of his heart. Director Wang Ren and Yang Rongfa were obviously stunned. "What is he doing?" Yang Rongfa looked puzzled? Why did you suddenly want to change the shooting position? Logically speaking, this kind of thing is decided by the director and the cinematographer, and the actors themselves have no right to change it. But this is the big investor Wu Mu. Wang Ren hesitated for a moment and said to the cameraman, "Move to the side a little." The scene was quickly readjusted. Wait until the adjustment is completed.
"First shot of scene thirteen, first time, action!" The script supervisor hits the cue and the shooting officially begins. The camera lens is focused on Wu Mu and his friends. Then Wang Ren and Yang Rongfa immediately discovered the effect of Wu Mu's small change on the monitor. In the camera before. Wu Mu was sitting in the sun, with nothing blocking his view. His entire body was exposed to the sun and could be seen clearly. But at this moment, there was a small shadow blocked by a banner above where they were sitting. When Wu Mu sat there and tilted his head to look at his friend, his face would be partially blocked by the shadow of the banner, making it look half bright and half dark, vaguely. Especially when the banner hanging above his head was blown by the wind, Wu Mu looked vague, as if he would disappear in the next second, with an indescribable haziness. This lens. Wang Ren had to say that just this small change immediately made the picture more meaningful and aesthetically pleasing. Wu Mu and his friends sat on the steps of the medical school. Suddenly his friend spotted the target and quickly stood up and trotted over. "Classmate, classmate, new student, right?" "Yeah." The girl said. "The professional one?" “I’m from the nursing department.” Wu Mu looked at it with meaninglessness. He had read the script, understood the story, and could feel some of the characters’ personalities and the emotions of the scenes. He should be confused at this moment, it’s pointless. Born into a family of steel mill workers, he yearns to write poetry and has a bit of a literary poetic sentiment in his heart. He doesn't want to be a factory worker like his father, whose life is predictable. But I am also not confident about what I can do, be a poet? It seems too far away. He also failed the college entrance examination, which was normal in that era, as not many of his friends were able to get into university. But in the end, his lack of confidence increased. If he couldn't even get into university, how could he still be a poet? He looked on in vain. My friend went in with the target he had set his eyes on. He glanced around, lowered his head and listened to his own tape. He seemed to care nothing about what was happening around him, as he was just dragged here by his friend. It’s right, it’s right! Wang Ren and Yang Rongfa both felt it instantly, this was the effect they wanted!
No, it's even better than what they wanted! This shot alone can be described as a close-up in a movie. The atmosphere was immediately created. Next it depends on Sun Yueqing's performance. The camera moves to Sun Yueqing who has just got off the bus that picks up new students. There is no need to worry about Sun Yueqing's acting skills. Just from the faint smile on Sun Yueqing's face, Wang Ren knew that she had grasped the emotions of the character. The camera follows Sun Yueqing. Sun Yueqing glanced around, looking for someone to greet her and ask for directions. Finally, her eyes fixed on the side of the steps at the door, where a boy was listening to a tape with his head down, his whole body in the shadows, half bright and half dark, and his face was so vague that it was difficult to see. She walked over and asked, "Classmate, how do I get to Building 8?" The camera on Wang Ren's monitor immediately switched to Sun Yueqing's perspective. They, along with Sun Yueqi, watched the boy in front of them look up. then Looking at the boy in front of me, when he raised his head, the shadow faded away, and his face seemed more dazzling than the sun in the sky under the sunlight. Sun Yueqing's heart skipped a beat. Wang Ren and Yang Rongfa, who were watching through the monitor, were also stunned. They just thought that Wu Mu's action of sitting to the side just now was to make himself look more vague. They never expected that when Wu Mu raised his head, the shadow would fade away. this. This is a small design. It’s so shameless! Yang Rongfa looked at the monitor and seemed to be blinded by the bright and dazzling picture. He felt speechless. Isn't Wu Mu's design a blatant attempt to use his good looks to attack others? (End of this chapter)
