Huandian Film and Television City

The crew of "Sword" completed the opening ceremony.

Then we officially started shooting.

"All departments are ready." Lu Chen sat on a chair and gave instructions with a walkie-talkie.

When it was no longer the crew of "The Blind Shaft", there was only 2 million investment and very few staff.

At that time, Lu Chen had to do many things himself.

Now the second "Sword of Immortality" can be considered a big investment.

The cast and crew of "Sword of Immortality" has nearly a hundred people.

Executive directors, assistant directors, costumers, props, lighting, sound recordists, photographers, etc. are all professionals.

As the chief director of "Sword and Fairy", Lu Chen only needs to direct everyone so that everyone can center on their own thoughts and successfully complete the scenes they want to express.

The on-site assistant director directed the group performances.

The lighting and recording teams are also always ready, just waiting for Director Lu’s order.

Lu Chen turned on the camera. This time, he shot digitally. The TV series used film, which was too expensive. The TV series was only broadcast on terminal devices such as TVs.

Using film will not show the advantages of film.

The on-site photographer saw Director Lu nodding, "First scene, first shot, first time, action!"

‘Zhao Linger’, played by Liu Yifei, slowly walks into the camera.

The camera focused on Liu Yifei, zoomed in, and took a close-up. Liu Yifei's beautiful face already occupied two-thirds of the screen. After staying there for three seconds, the camera slowly zoomed out again.

From close-up.

And then to the vision.

The whole shooting process went smoothly.

After all, they all use the best Sony cameras, as well as top-notch telescopic cranes and other photographic auxiliary equipment.

"Ka!" Lu Chen stood up from his chair and clapped his hands, "Very good, this one passed."

Shooting film and television works.

Usually the first shot after booting up.

I will always choose the simple one.

It means a good start.

It's just like the power-on ceremony, where you burn incense and worship Buddha to seek good luck.

Lu Chen also chose a very simple scene in "Sword and Fairy". There was no dialogue between the characters, so there would be no problem of actors being distracted.

"The actors who are going to appear in the next shot are all ready." The assistant director began to arrange the next shot, feeling excited in his heart. He has been an assistant director for several years.

First time working with a Golden Bear winner.

After the filming of "Sword and Fairy" is completed, I should also raise the price. After all, I have been the assistant director of a Golden Bear Award winner.

"Director Lu, are you thirsty? I bought a drink." Zhao Liying took out a bottle of Coke with body temperature from her arms. It is still spring season.

The wind blowing in Huandian Film and Television City is still a little cool.

Zhao Liying deliberately put it in her arms to warm it for a while.

I also specially sold a bottle of foreign brand Coke.

This proves your true feelings.

I really appreciate Director Lu’s appreciation.

"Coca-Cola?" Lu Chen took it and saw that it was a carbonated drink.

This is killing your descendants.

This is definitely not drinkable.

Both descendants will be of great use.

I called Liu Yifei and gave her the Coke.

"Thank you, Senior Brother." Liu Yifei happily took the Coke and took a sip, "Senior Brother, I'm going to recite my lines."

The shot just now.

Very simple.

The next scene will test your acting skills and line skills.

On the first day of filming, as the female lead, I can’t have any problems.

"Go." Lu Chendang noticed that Zhao Liying had empty hands, "Didn't you buy yourself a drink?"

I thought she bought two bottles, one for me and one for her.

"I don't drink drinks." Zhao Liying's ancestors have been farmers for generations, and she grew up living in rural areas, so she loves money very much, and of course she is reluctant to buy drinks.

But you can buy it for Director Lu.

Director Lu was kind to me.

It’s just that Director Lu casually gave the Coke to someone else, but he still felt a little disappointed.

"Don't waste the money next time." It's 2003, and who doesn't like drinking Coke? Children can be happy for most of the day if they get a bottle of Coke.

"It doesn't cost anything." Zhao Liying used to work in sales and saved a little money.

Now he is a Mars film and television artist.

There is a monthly guarantee of RMB 2,000.

Tell your parents about this.

Both parents are happy for me and say that I have a future.

In 2003, wages were almost around one thousand, and some were only a few hundred, and two thousand a month was very little.

Moreover, for playing the third female lead in "Sword and Fairy", Director Lu even offered himself a salary of RMB 100,000.

Of course, Lu Chen was thinking that only when the artist’s annual income reaches 100,000 yuan can the company distribute the money. Anyway, there are three investors. No matter what, he will not lose money. “Then next time, don’t buy Coke.”

"Director Lu, what kind of Coke do you like to drink?" Zhao Liying took out a small notebook and a pen.

This shocked Lu Chen. It seems that Zhao Liying's transformation from a rural girl to a popular actress in the film and television industry was not accidental, but inevitable.

This hard-working attitude.

I will succeed one day.

"Director Lu, what do you like to drink?" Zhao Liying was ready to write, but she didn't say anything when she saw Director Lu.

A kidney-tonifying drink!

Lu Chen would definitely not tell this joke, otherwise it wouldn't be teasing, and there is no need for it now, "As long as it's not Coke, just drink, don't forget it now, you will be in the next scene, so get ready."

"Okay, Director Lu." Zhao Liying put away her notebook and went to practice her stance. As for her lines in the past few days, she has already memorized them by heart.

……

Huandian County, Jinshi Hotel

The entire hotel was booked by the cast of "Sword and Fairy".

In addition to Lu Chen, Liu Yifei and other main members.

Others are for two people sharing a room.

Although the investment is large.

But we can’t be extravagant or wasteful.

Of course, Lu Chen reserved the best room in the hotel for himself. As the highest-ranking person in the "Sword and Fairy" crew, he had to enjoy the best room.

At this time, Lu Chen had just sent away Liu Yifei and Zhao Liying.

The crew has been filming for a week.

This week.

Zhao Liying and Liu Yifei came to Lu Chen's room three times.

Discuss the script.

This is not the kind of discussion between male and female stars in later generations.

It’s really a discussion about the script.

Zhao Liying asked Liu Yifei about acting skills.

Every time they come together.
