Chapter 957 "Heart Shadow Link" (Part 2)
The martial arts extras standing or squatting nearby were stunned. They were all martial artists. It was not impossible to tell whether Qin Jue was really talented or not. Not to mention that her sword shadows were flying and her daggers were occasionally inserted in between, with cold light everywhere, even the agility of her stepping and jumping was enough to make people who didn't know anything about it realize the seriousness of the matter.
Sun Guangshan breathed a sigh of relief and was also a little more concerned.
He was relieved because Qin Jue was actually a good fighter. Which executive director doesn't have a dream of being a chief director? It is naturally a good thing to meet talented actors and shoot higher-quality works;
What he was worried about was that Qin Jue's attitude was a little tough on the first day of filming. Now he was still using this method to establish his authority in public. He might make the common mistake of actors taking over the job and asking for more scenes and highlights. The real protagonists of "Heart and Shadow Link" were all in Group A. Sun Guangshan, who was in charge of Group B, had to shoot well, but not too well. It was even worse to let the supporting actors steal the limelight. At this time, he had already foreseen the future of being caught in the middle.
He had mixed emotions here, but the others, especially the extras, didn't think so much. They just stared at Qin Jue's swordplay in the field. The Tang sword was crisp and clear, and the chopping, picking and cutting were rustling.
"Awesome."
"That flip just now was so beautiful!"
"I like this forehand and backhand exchange, hey, did you see it?"
The extras whispered to each other, and the staff exchanged glances from time to time. Only the stuntman in the purple coat saw more of the doorway and looked more and more surprised.
So scary!
Others didn't react, but the stuntman noticed that every move of Qin Jue was firmly in the position predetermined by the character Jingchen. In other words, she was now making her own adaptation of the martial arts scene just now while keeping the camera position still!
There was no need to change the position, the camera lens, or even the lighting, but the excitement of the picture was more than twice as high as the previous demonstration!
Is this something an actor can do?
The stuntman was sweating coldly, and unconsciously looked at the martial arts instructor standing not far away, and found that the latter's face was also changing again and again.
Qin Jue seemed to be trying and adjusting. She repeated a series of movements and positions three or four times, each time with a little difference.
After a while, she seemed to have a final draft. She did not continue to try, but practiced several sets of movements in turn, such as dancing with a knife, waving a dagger, and pulling out a gun. She looked like she was familiar with the new props and warming up.
"Damn, he didn't use a wire!" At this time, a group actor who came to his senses exclaimed in a low voice.
Many people noticed this, but many people didn't pay attention at all. When someone pointed it out, it immediately caused another wave of suppressed voices.
Qin Jue didn't use a wire!
It was all because her combos and movements were too smooth and smooth. Others only saw the flash of the knife and the fluttering of clothes. Everyone was feasting their eyes. In a trance, they thought they were watching a personal fighting performance video that had been post-produced. They completely forgot that many flips, side flips, forward and backward jumps, etc. often require wires to show this chic and capable style.
Suddenly, everyone's level of Qin Jue's power soared to a higher level.
The stand-in in the purple coat complained bitterly. He secretly shouted "Awesome!", but at the same time, he felt that his job was taken away. He was at risk of unemployment just after joining the group...
With the skills Qin Jue showed at the moment, why would he need a martial arts stand-in?
Just thinking about it, the man who attracted everyone's attention retracted his hand, and the Tang sword "swish" returned to the sheath. Although it did not make the "clang" sound of the sword in the public's impression, this style of being unsophisticated has already impressed many people.
Not long ago, the final round of "Entertainment Intern" was popular on the Internet. There were many staff members in Group B who knew Qin Jue. However, seeing is believing. Even the crew workers who were not interested in celebrities had to admit that Qin Jue was really amazing after watching this set of fighting scenes, not to mention those who had heard of her before.
It's easy to know that after today, there will probably be random gossip about Qin Jue from the chat records of relatives and friends of some insider to various social platforms.
Qin Jue patted his waist lightly to confirm that the "guns and ammunition" were fixed intact, then walked back without blushing and panting, and asked Sun Guangshan for the storyboard.
Sun Guangshan was stunned: "Ah this..."
The full name of the storyboard is the storyboard script, which is drawn and marked by the director (especially the executive director). It is usually a large horizontal booklet, which contains the shot number, the time required for the film (how many seconds to shoot), the hand-drawn picture and camera sketch, the text description of the picture content, the camera movement (shot change), as well as the character dialogue, music and sound effects, volume adjustment, etc., and if there are narrations and subtitles, they must also be added.
But in fact, TV series are different from movies. Every minute and every second in the feature film of the latter is precious, so every detail should be determined as much as possible before starting the filming. The storyboard is indispensable, while the former is much more spacious in terms of length. It doesn't matter if there are a few more "invalid shots". Anyway, there is enough material, and the worst case is to let the post-editing make up for it.
Therefore, drawing storyboards in advance does not exist in the shooting of TV series. Basically, the scene is determined on the scene first, and then the director and the director of photography discuss how to shoot the scene of the day.
It's just that Qin Jue has always been with the film crew, even "Entertainment Intern" is based on the specifications of the film, so he made a mistake of taking it for granted.
Even if he guessed that Qin Jue wanted to talk about business and was not deliberately mocking, Sun Guangshan couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"Well, Mr. Qin." He smiled, "There are many unstable factors in filming a drama, and there are not often storyboards..."
Without a storyboard, we have to rely on the producer and the actor team to increase or decrease the scenes and make frequent revisions. With a storyboard, how can we live?
Qin Jue was slightly startled, and then he reacted. He smiled and said "sorry", and did not dwell on this topic. He continued directly: "I have some suggestions for the first fight scene today."
Here it comes. Sun Guangshan's heart sank.
"... It takes some rehearsal time, and more polishing with the extras. Other camera positions and movements don't need to be changed." Qin Jue continued.
Sun Guangshan's face quickly flashed a little surprise: "This-"
Qin Jue turned around and asked the extras who were resting nearby to stand up. A group of people returned to the performance area. In addition to Sun Guangshan and the director of photography, the martial arts instructor and the stand-in were also there.
"The background of this scene in the script is that a group of players who are keen on PVP have been planning for a long time to encircle Jingchen. Since they came prepared, there is no tactical plan and all members are melee, isn't this a bit unreasonable?" Qin Jue said very tactfully.
Thirteen or fourteen game masters teamed up to challenge the master, but everyone had a cold weapon or was unarmed, and there was no coordination between them, as if they wanted to beat the master to death with random punches. The male protagonist who was besieged online was not panicked at all. He fought back for a while, then suddenly took out a pistol and shot all the people. Then he finished the fight and stood tall, showing a lonely and cold back, and then a close-up of his face.
Is this a reasonable or unreasonable question? This is stupid.
Let alone reasonable occupation distribution, at least there should be more players with long-range attacks and hot weapons, right? So everyone is stupidly fighting in close combat, and the only role is to rush up and serve the male protagonist?
Others hold knives and you hold guns, relying purely on firepower to crush, what is there to be proud of? If I were a viewer, it would be difficult for me not to comment that the male protagonist is so low, if I were a fan of the book... I would want to fight the screenwriter.
Qin Jue thought with a fake smile.
In the original novel, the first encounter between the male and female protagonists in the "other world" was very dramatic and reasonable. At that time, in a certain filming building, the new actress Jiang Rong finally got a chance to shoot a platter with other female stars for a second-rate magazine, and the movie emperor Liao Jingchen was shooting a magazine photo next door. The two were very close in a straight line, meeting the conditions for being in the "other world" together.
Then, Jiang Rong, who was not even "emerging", was made difficult by others - in fact, it was not difficult, it was just that others were too lazy to care about her, and when they saw someone blocking the way, they pushed her casually, so the defenseless Jiang Rong was pushed and staggered, and her arm hit the sharp decorations on the wall, and a bloody wound was cut on the spot.
The pain suddenly burst out. Jiang Rong, who is actually a delicate and fragile girl, felt extremely wronged for a moment. She wanted to hug her friends or bury herself in her mother's arms and cry coquettishly, but because she was still outside and in this fiercely competitive entertainment industry, if she showed her weak side, she would be more likely to be bullied in the future, so she gritted her teeth and held on, without showing any fear.
Facing the screams, sarcasm and frowning expressions of others, Jiang Rong raised her head proudly, raised the bleeding arm, kissed the blood with her red lips, touched the wound with the tip of her tongue, and her mouth was bright red, but her eyes were as sharp as a knife, just like the sub-concept assigned to her in the "Hundred Flowers in Bloom" theme of this issue of the magazine - "Rose thorns hurt others and themselves, but the beauty is eternal."
"Isn't this good? Just shoot it like this." Jiang Rong licked the bloody corner of her lips lightly, smiling charmingly and brightly, and her aura was so strong that some people dared not look directly at her.
At the same time, Jiang Rong's heart: Ahhhhhhhhhh, wuwuwuwuwuwu, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, QAQ——!!!
The "inner world" is a subconscious realm that exists in the cracks of reality. No matter how long the time in the realm is, it is only a blink of an eye in the outside world. Moreover, if there is a fixed heart shadow around, this spiritual space is easier to unfold. Because Jiang Rong's inner emotions were too strong at this time, and Liao Jingchen was within a thousand meters, he fell into the "inner world" in an instant.
The heart shadow is reflected by emotions and personality, and it reflects the real self from temperament to image. Liao Jingchen is a well-proportioned and decent gentleman in reality, but the heart shadow Jingchen is an out-and-out cool guy; Jiang Rong is just the opposite. She is tall and full of queen spirit in reality, but after coming to the "inner world", she follows her inner expectations and becomes a soft little dwarf.
Liao Jingchen was extremely bored because of the socializing during the photo shoot, and was slashing people in the "inner world". Jiang Rong fell in without warning and started crying without saying a word.
She cried so miserably and loudly that Jingchen, who was not far away, paused with his knife.
Jingchen:? What the hell.
In the "inner world", strong emotions will emit attraction, luring other heart shadows whose shapes are fixed or still very erratic. This is why Liao Jingchen will be besieged every time he enters the "inner world".
Now, Jiang Rong (Rongrong) is a newly born heart shadow with intense emotional fluctuations. She has also become the prey of other heart shadows and was quickly surrounded.
Then it was a classic hero saving the beauty, although Jingchen was not actually here to save people. He originally just wanted to check the source of the crying, but because of his decisive personality, he chopped all the dark heart shadows around him.
The terrifying encirclement suddenly cleared, and there was only a figure standing in front of him, with a ghost-faced Tang sword. Rongrong opened her eyes and stopped sobbing, and a string of "killing god, cool, indifferent, so powerful, so safe" flashed through her mind. Almost subconsciously, she stood up with tears in her eyes and walked towards Jingchen, like a soft and fluffy rabbit soaked by heavy rain, longing for the strong arms of a kind person.
Then Jingchen backhanded a knife.
Rongrong:?
Rongrong: WuuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuQwQ! ! !
At that time, Jingchen was still the irritable Jingchen. The more Rongrong cried, the more annoyed he became. In the "other world", he had no mercy. He chopped another knife and planned to completely put an end to this weak new heart shadow.
However, the heart shadow is an aggregation of emotions. The confused heart shadow is the most erratic and easy to disperse, while the one with violent emotional fluctuations is more stable.
The more Jingchen hacked, the more aggrieved Rongrong felt, and the more she teared up and sobbed.
So Jingchen hacked for a long time but failed to kill...
Most of the heart shadows in the "inner world" are full of strong resentment, and Jingchen is the best in every sense, with a strong suppressive power over "the same kind". But Rongrong is different. Her emotions are at the other extreme. She is not angry, but full of grievance and sadness. This makes Jingchen's attack seem to be attributed to the opposite, and there is no way to completely destroy her.
It can only be said that a delicate crybaby like Jiang Rong who is single-minded and does not collapse his personality is rare in the "inner world". Liao Jingchen originally entered this place to vent his emotions, but he didn't expect that the dignified demon king would encounter Waterloo on a cub heart shadow. He was even more depressed. He rolled his eyes under the ghost mask and turned away, and his black cloak rolled up like a flag of hell.
He left without looking back, but Rongrong didn't give up. This crying little guy was like a strange sieve, all the malice leaked through, but the kindness was like the little stars in the glass bottle, even the smallest bit would be collected by her and she would never forget it.
Rongrong chased after him. She was very small in the "inner world" and not fast. She could only follow Jingchen with her short legs, "click, click", looking eagerly, like a newly hatched bird, and recognized a "mother", and only recognized this one in this life.
Jingchen was very annoyed. He didn't want to talk, and he couldn't kill him with his hands. He was actually stuck by Rongrong, and finally left the "inner world" in a daze.
Rongrong was not like him, who was "the shadow of the heart that had been deposited for many years". She was confused in the "inner world" for a while before she returned to reality in a trance, thinking that she was under too much pressure and had a daydream.
——Jiang Rong calmed down slightly, replaced the corners of her lips that she wanted to purse tightly with a leisurely smile, held her head high, and took her to the shadowless wall of the studio with her lipstick and blood wiped away, and took her unhealed wounds, and picked up the dew rose.
——Liao Jingchen finally survived this social hell, wearing a thick mask of gentleness, keeping the standard arc of the corners of his mouth, and strode past with the flattering assistants and staff.
She looked up, and he turned his head.
She looked at the camera, and he looked at her.
At this moment, the gorgeous smile was like a blooming rose, shining beyond description. The shutter sounded "click", and Jiang Rong slightly raised her chin, her whole body temperament complemented the smile on her face, strong, unyielding, and never bowed her head.
Liao Jingchen suddenly retracted his gaze, and it seemed that glass was pierced in his eyes, and the debris fell from his eyes into his heart.
He walked away quickly, looking a little embarrassed, like a canary that stumbled upon a free lark. He dared not look anymore, could not look anymore, and fell into the gorgeous cage in self-deception.
