Chapter 118: Poetry and calligraphy in the stomach
Whisper Pictures supported a group of behind-the-scenes veterans, together with the original cast of "Pause Today". On the morning of September 17, that is, Tuesday, Yan Qing produced "Moonlight"
"People" crew.
Miao Miao arranged a car early to take seven veteran actors from the Imperial People's Art Theater to Xiangshan Yishu Community.
Shao Qing's villa was originally decorated in a Chinese style with scholarly wood colors. The props and art were temporarily removed from the electrical appliances that were beyond the setting of the film's era. After the soft decoration, there was no need to make major set adjustments.
Under the eyes of Qian Dejun and other people and arts teachers with great joy, Yan Qing, who had done a lot of homework in advance from behind-the-scenes footage of several of his own works, as the director led the crew members to light three sticks of incense.
.
In accordance with the old tradition of the Huaguo Drama Academy, he paid homage to the camera wrapped in red cloth. Yan Qing followed a simple but not simple process in detail to complete the opening ceremony, which is very important to the older generation.
After a not too formal opening banquet, the first scene that officially started shooting in the afternoon was the scene where Yan Qing and the others had rehearsed last night the scene of fried noodles with soybean paste becoming a household talk.
The mechanical operator of the photography team set up the two cameras, Yan Qing led the director, and about ten people from the photography team gathered around the sandalwood dining table in the restaurant on the first floor of Shao Qing's house.
As the five veteran actors, Ren Dongming, Qian Dejun, Sun Youzhi, Zhao Lei, and Zhang Rui, changed their costumes and settled into their seats, the prop assistant promptly brought five steaming bowls of Lao Didu fried noodles to the table.
After receiving feedback from Miao that the coordinator was ready, Yan Qing raised the director's microphone and gave a signal to the executive deputy director Mo Ran, and the crew of "Moonlight" started running at high speed:
The lighting director, who had already had one cooperation experience, was already familiar with Yan Qing's directing style. After the self-inspection, he directly used the intercom to give a signal in English: "stand by!"
Executive deputy director Mo Ran used the intercom to announce the recording: "roll sound!"
Press the device recording controller, and the recording guidance feedback: "sound speeding!"
Mo Ran looked at the recorder: "Call slate!"
The professional newspaper clerk said loudly: "The first shot of the thirteenth scene in the second volume of "Moonlight""
"camera a/b rolling!"
After giving the feedback, Mo Ran, Tan Sen's two-camera cameras on both sides started recording at the same time.
"Marker!~Kacha!"
The clapperboard struck loudly.
Moving closer to the director's microphone in his hand, Yan Qing spoke quickly and calmly: "action!"
In this way, "Moonlight" was launched in a low-key manner under the lens of matryoshka dolls from the more peripheral "Talent Co., Ltd." program team.
As soon as an expert takes action, they will know if there is any. The actors lined up for the filming of the few scenes at Shao Qing's house are all actors from the Imperial People's Art Theatre, all experienced actors with more than 30 years of experience in the industry. The filming schedule is basically maintained at one or two points.
Extremely efficient.
…
"Pei Pei, are you turning on the speaker?...Is there anyone else next to you?...Well...it's in the teaching and research office...I just wanted you to tell Huaijing to come to class with peace of mind..."
Outside the set, leaning against the corner of the sofa in the living room, Shao Qing answered the phone softly. She gradually smiled broadly: "Professor Weng's Director Yan is doing well wherever he goes, and the actors at Renyi are also very professional. The filming this afternoon was very good."
All goes well, just waiting for his baby Xiaoge to join the group with peace of mind on Friday."
…
"Crack!"
"What? She said she didn't care at all! Then why did she ask you to call me..."
As if he saw Weng Huaijing on the other end of the phone turning around, Shao Qing, who was blowing out smoke rings with flaming red lips, smiled extremely enchantingly: "Hahaha, I believe it, Pepe, do you believe it or not?"
…
"Why did this girl ask Pepe to hang up the phone... But her attitude of admiration is a little different from before... It's really good..."
The charm was gone, and after retracting the thread, Shao Qing lowered his head and smiled, a very gentle smile.
…
The filming progress of "Moonlight" was extremely smooth. Before five o'clock on Thursday afternoon, all the scenes where Weng Huaijing was not painting had been filmed.
In the shooting plan, the Friday daytime schedule included group scenes involving Weng Huaijing. Yan Qing arranged most of the double scenes between Lu Chuan and Yu Ge, as well as Lu Yue and Yu Ge, on Friday night and Saturday daytime.
…
Friday 20:15
No. 2, West Chang'an Street, Xicheng, Imperial City
The closing passage of the concert hall on the east side of the National Center for the Performing Arts
…
Yan Qing, who was wearing a straight tuxedo evening gown, had just sent Sun Youzhi and Jiang Biyao away. At this point, all the scenes with the Imperial People's Art actors had been filmed, and the progress was far beyond the expectations of the filming schedule.
"With the tacit understanding between me and Bong Bong, the finishing time may even be advanced to tomorrow afternoon... I don't know what kind of mood she was in during the performance..."
Stunned by the first time she saw Weng Huai in a dress, Yan Qing glanced at the person next to him in a fishtail evening dress calmly, and then said to the crew with satisfaction: "Thank you for your hard work, everyone, get ready to continue.
For the night scene, let’s shoot the proposal scene in the restaurant first.”
At this moment, Weng Huaijing handed the director's monitor back to Yan Qing, without any intention of communicating, and only gave him an intriguing hint of anger with his eyes.
"...Is she shy, complaining that I shouldn't have said the proposal? There is a bit of anticipation in her eyes... mixed with a bit of banter that I will have to kneel down later..."
"Yan Qing, Professor Weng, good evening to both of you!"
A female voice sounded like an oriole leaving the valley, interrupting Yan Qing's ecstasy. He and Weng Huaijing, who were just about to start a flirtation, turned their heads and followed the sound.
A few steps away stood a slim girl in a black backless evening dress, holding a small aluminum violin case in her hand, looking at them with a smile.
"Good evening."
After responding politely, Weng Huaijing glanced at Yan Qing secretly.
"She's looking for you?"
"It's impossible...I'm not familiar with it...it can't be..."
Yan Qing's eyes denied that for three consecutive seconds, a round of communication had been completed.
He has a preference for classical music, and during the filming in the concert hall, there were shots of the two of them carefully watching the performance. It didn't take much effort for Yan Qing to recognize the girl in front of him with outstanding appearance, figure, and temperament.
Having just experienced the Fei Jingyu incident, Yan Qing was actually a little unsure whether he had met an acquaintance. He tentatively praised: "The resonance in the lower register of the "Ho Chi-zhen Second Violin Sonata" just now was excellent.
The momentum of the bow is astonishing, the bow falls immediately, it is deep and compact, and has a rich foundation. It is worthy of being the chief..."
A look of surprise and shyness appeared on her pretty face. The girl lowered her head and played with the handle of the violin case and replied softly: "Seeing is better than hearing. This sonata added as a warm-up is not very famous, and it was not even mentioned in the curtain sheet.
, I didn’t expect you to actually be involved in classical music..."
At this time, another girl wearing the same performance costume came out of the concert hall. She urged in a sweet voice: "Sister Xiaoyue, we have to go back to the dressing room."
"I'm not an acquaintance. From what she said, this is the first time I've seen her..."
Secretly breathing a sigh of relief, Yan Qing couldn't help but carefully observe Weng Huaijing's reaction beside him with his peripheral vision.
She was clear and cold, everything was normal. Weng Huaijing, who had excellent camera sense, quickly sensed Yan Qing's gaze and gave her a gentle eye roll.
"Watch the impact!"
After receiving the signal, Yan Qing naturally cast his gaze behind Weng Huaijing. Not far away, he noticed that Mo Ran, Tan Sen and several lighting engineers and sound engineers were chatting in twos and threes.
Yan Qing, who has sharp ears, also heard the whispers between two musicians a few steps away:
The girl suspected to be named Xiaoyue tried to persuade the latecomer to leave: "Yan'er, please go back first. I'll just have a casual chat. My mother asked me to get Professor Weng's autograph before she came this time."
The person who came later said with a soft tone and a tenacious attitude: "Then I'll wait for you here, Sister Xiaoyue."
"You're not looking for me."
Yan Qing secretly rejoiced and said softly: "Xiao Ge, I seem to be your fan."
Sure enough, Miss Xiaoyue took a pen and a note pad from the bag of the girl behind her, and she slowly approached Weng Huaijing.
"Professor Weng, my mother is also a professor, but she teaches economics at Shanghai University. She keeps saying at home that you are the light of female professors. If I have the opportunity to meet you, I must help you get an autograph."
"Associate Professor…"
After correcting the title calmly, Weng Huaijing asked again: "What is your surname?"
"You are still so young. My mother's surname is Yu, lush and lush."
The girl smiled broadly and held up a pen and paper with both hands.
Weng Huaijing took the pen and notepad generously and started writing.
Yan Qing moved his little body calmly, and he noticed that Weng Huaijing seemed to have written:
"Hsinchu is higher than the old bamboo branches, all because of the support of the old stems. - After learning, I came to Weng Huai to pay homage to Professor Yu for his love."
"Tsk tsk tsk, although the emotional intelligence is cute, Bing Bing is really full of poetry and poetry."
Yan Qing, who entered the movie-watching mode, did not expect that things would continue.
Taking back the paper and pen with both hands, Miss Xiaoyue first thanked Weng Huaijing, and then put the paper and pen properly into the compartment of the piano case. She actually extended her right hand to Yan Qing with a soft smile on her face: "Yan Qing,
I am your fan, my name is Yuan Yuyue, Wang Yue’s Yue”
Qian Qianxu held the green hand that was handed to her, and then let go in a gentlemanly manner. Yan Qing thought in her heart: "Yuan Yuyue is from Shanghai...why is this name so familiar?"
"Forehead…"
Yuan Yuyue wrung her hands and looked horrified. Finally, she lowered her head and said softly: "My brother...had some...misunderstandings with you before."
Yan Qing suddenly realized: "Yuan Yuyue, Yuan Yuqiu...this is my biological sister who is the enemy..."
"Professor Yu? Yu Jiayuan!"
With a cold voice from Qingqing, Weng Huaijing suddenly stepped in front of Yuan Yuyue and blocked Yan Qing behind him.
Yan Qing, who reacted quickly, felt happy in her heart: "She has always paid attention to my affairs, and she wants to protect me..."
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense, Yuan Yuyue raised her head and explained sincerely: "Don't get me wrong... I really don't have any ill intentions. Professor Yu, my eldest sister and I are all loyal fans of "Talent Co., Ltd."
"It's okay, Miss Yuan, it's been so long..."
Yan Qing spoke up at the right time to make the atmosphere harmonious again. He said half-truthfully and half-falsely: "Huaijing, let me see it for you. There are no pleats on the back of the evening dress. It's so beautiful!"
Hearing Yan Qing's sudden change of address, Weng Huaijing took half a step back, turned his head and gave him a gentle glance without leaving any trace.
The look in her eyes as she handed it over was clearly mocking Yan Qing, "Don't you like to call me Professor Weng... Professor Weng?"
"..."
He wanted to respond, but Yuan Yuyue's eyes were locked tightly, and Yan Qing could only smile awkwardly.
"We all love listening to your songs, and that "Pause for Today", but it's a pity...I'm sorry..."
Only then did Yuan Yuyue realize that her brother was the real culprit that prevented Yan Qing from making movies, so she shut up in time and bowed deeply.
"It's okay, we'll be over soon. Besides, the movie doesn't have to be released to the public. We're filming right now. Look at the camera. The lighting engineer and sound recorder are still here."
Instead, Yan Qing comforted Yuan Yuyue, who looked apologetic.
The third princess of the Yuan Mansion was surprisingly coaxable. Yuan Yuyue's attention was immediately attracted by Mo Ran and the others who were pointed at by Yan Qing. She asked expectantly: "So there will be a new script released next weekend?"
Yan Qing smiled and said: "Yes, this time it will be a complete movie, one hundred minutes."
"So I came to the concert to film a movie..."
Yuan Yuyue asked excitedly: Did I appear on the scene?"
"The program team has probably communicated with your unit and the management of the National Center for the Performing Arts Concert Hall that a short excerpt of "Ho Chi-zhen's Second Violin Sonata" will be used in the film..."
Thinking that he could show some goodwill to the Yuan family, Yan Qing nodded and replied: "If you don't mind, Miss Yuan, of course the chief violinist will appear on the scene."
"Perhaps, we can add a short plot on our way home..."
As if sensing his intention to release his kindness, Weng Huaijing reminded Yan Qing in a soft voice.
"If Ms. Yuan is interested in making a guest appearance, we can add a short plot outside the National Center for the Performing Arts..."
With a clear understanding, Yan Qing directly sent an invitation to Yuan Yuyue.
"Is it convenient? Great! Fortunately, I chased him out with Qin..."
Consciously making a mistake, Yuan Yuyue covered her mouth and snickered cutely.
"Mo Ran, Tan Sen, I have an idea at the moment..."
Yan Qing smiled and left quickly, and he gathered the crew back together to prepare for the transition.
