089. Light replacement(1/4)
"White, with only a golden peony on the corner of the skirt, and the belt is made of gold and jade, right?"
Looking at the sketch in front of me, I also looked at the new version of the script for the first scene of the reunion between Prince Yuanjie and the Queen... Although the dialogue has not changed, there are many more scene descriptions.
For example, the queen embroidered chrysanthemums in front of a lonely lamp. This is easy to understand and expresses the feeling of loneliness.
Another example is that she is wearing a white gauze dress, which covers up the bold palace dress and replaces it with a restrained and graceful beauty when sleeping.
Don't say it yet.
After seeing this script, Zhang Yimou had a picture in his mind.
A look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes:
"It's well done...but this scene has to be done later. I'll make a few costumes and choose one."
"OK, all right."
Xu Xin nodded and couldn't help but yawned again.
On the second day of filming, everyone had to start work earlier.
Otherwise, if I get up at eight or nine o'clock like yesterday and go to the set to put on makeup and so on, it might be noon.
Xu Xin worked until 2 o'clock in the morning yesterday, but unexpectedly he was called out at 7 o'clock today.
It was Assistant Shen who called him, telling him to prepare to leave.
Didn't get enough sleep at all.
After yawning, the car drove out of the hotel.
Hengdian is not particularly busy in the morning. There are many cars but not many people.
As he yawned, the car drove all the way to Daming Palace.
I don’t know how long it took, but when the car arrived, Xu Xin jumped out of the car in a daze.
Only then did I realize... Director Zhang and the others arrived relatively late.
When he arrived, the first thing Xu Xin saw was a large tent in the corner. There were dozens? Or one or two hundred girls. Some of them had done up their maiden buns, while others had their hair down in a relaxed-looking way. , were walking in and out. Next to it, there were twenty or thirty makeup artists busy quickly, tying different buns on each girl sitting on the chair.
Obviously... these people should have come earlier.
As soon as he reached the shadow of the main hall, he saw Jay Chou waving to him.
It looked like a student greeting the teacher.
He nodded and walked over, looking away as he walked, but suddenly found...
Only Jay Chou's car was there, Zhou Renfa, Gong Li, Liu Ye, and Ni Dahong's team seemed not to be there.
"morning."
"Good morning...I didn't remember until I got up in the morning and arrived at the set that I had a basketball date with you today."
While talking, he handed Xu Xin a bottle of water.
Ice and cold.
Xu Xin nodded, put water on his forehead to wake himself up, and then said:
"I have good news and I have bad news, which one do you want to listen to?"
"...Good news, can you not tell me the bad news?"
Hearing this, Xu Xin was delighted:
"It's a nice thought... The good news is that I stayed up very late last night because of the script revision, and didn't go to bed until 2 a.m., so I didn't go to play ball or go to the gym... You don't have to feel guilty or uneasy. "
"..."
Jay Chou's mouth twitched...
He was being polite.
It turns out this guy is really good at chatting...
So he continued to ask:
"What about the bad news?"
"The bad news is that the scene you filmed yesterday where you met your mother for the first time had to be reshot because of Teacher Gong. So... you have to do it all over again in a few days."
Xu Xin's words revealed a bit of schadenfreude.
What he originally meant was that Gong Li was going to remake the film.
But who knew that after Jay Chou heard this, he suddenly asked:
"Reshoot? Sister Gong Li has a conflict with Director Zhang?"
"...?"
Xu Xin was stunned for a moment...then he understood why the other party asked such a question, and quickly shook his head:
"That's not true."
"...We are friends. I have seen them quarreling. Are you still hiding it from me?"
"...It's a friend who doesn't even have contact information?"
Xu Xin looked at him funny, and then saw Jay Chou blinking at him crazily...
"..."
Suddenly understanding something, he glanced at the security personnel who were looking at him again, and nodded:
"I'm not hiding it from you. There is indeed no conflict between the two. The reshoot was because the scene was changed. As for... what happened, I don't know how to tell you. What I can confirm with you is that Director Zhang and
There’s nothing wrong with Teacher Gong Li.”
"Then it should be about the actor who hasn't appeared yet, right?"
"..."
He looked at the little king in front of him in surprise.
"what?"
Jay Chou shrugged:
"Surprised I could guess that?"
"...It's really surprising. I read on the news that you are not sociable."
"I have many friends."
Jay Chou dumbfounded:
"Aren't we the same?"
"Then I didn't see you inviting me to dinner."
"Then do you want to eat together for lunch? I also have sausages that my grandma gave me~"
"By the way, can I tell you about the drama?"
"Yes~"
"Then you are too cool."
"...Please, this is not how a motorcycle is used~"
Anyway, the crew hasn't started filming yet, and the two of them are just chatting away.
What Jay Chou is most concerned about is the "invisible" things brewing in the crew... Unfortunately, his bodyguards were too close, and Xu Xin couldn't say anything.
After chatting for a while, Xu Xin saw Liu Guodong walking out of the palace with a walkie-talkie:
"You can just come in now. I will ask someone to open the door for you... If you don't have anything to do at the moment, go and open the palace door and let the clothing truck in."
He ran out quickly.
Clothing cart?
A costume guy?
While I was thinking about it, I heard Jay Chou next to me saying:
"It's so spectacular..."
"What?"
Xu Xin turned her head and followed the direction he was looking, and then realized that...at some point, all the extras in the big tent had come out.
Everyone's head was tied in a style that was a mixture of real hair and wigs, and they looked like they were standing on the square like a phalanx.
Jay Chou turned to Xu Xin and said:
"I have never seen so many people in Wanwan Province, whether it's a MV or a movie I'm starring in... It's really hard to imagine how we can schedule so many people at the same time."
"That's why the director's job is not easy to do."
Looking at those girls as well, Xu Xin said with emotion.
"Aren't you also a director?"
