Chapter 402

After Jin Li finished eating, she went to find Director Chu.

Director Chu and the screenwriter had already discussed for a while, and seeing Jin Li coming, he said very pleasantly:

"You came just in time. I discussed it with the screenwriter for a while and felt that the ideas you proposed are feasible."

"And there's no need to add too many scenes for you. You just need to modify the existing scenes later and increase your performance time."

Since the director agreed to let her act according to her own ideas, Jin Li wouldn't be a killjoy and ask if other actors agreed.

In Director Chu's crew, the director's power is obviously greater than the actors, otherwise Director Chu wouldn't be able to call on so many A-list stars and veteran actors to join this play.

Everyone came for Director Chu, and Jin Li herself was the same.

Chu Chenliang pondered: "But the ideas you proposed are still a bit few. These days, while filming, you should think more about character details. You can write them directly on the script, or write them on paper, and bring them to me to see in a few days."

"We will gather together to discuss it then and see how to cut your scenes. By the way, you not only need to think about modern scenes, but also think about how to add color to the 'Ruan Ruan' character after the apocalypse comes."

Jin Li pondered: "After the apocalypse comes, Ruan Ruan's scenes are not many, but she appears at important moments every time."

"You have already designed the scenes where she appears to be very comedic. I feel that we shouldn't be too exaggerated, lest we overdo it. We just need to repeatedly strengthen it around her character setting."

Chu Chenliang thought about it and felt it was okay, but he said very cautiously: "After the apocalypse comes, I will film you twice, once as a normal performance and once as an exaggerated performance, and we will compare them."

The screenwriter looked at Director Chu and said his unfinished words.

"Jin Li, although you are playing a supporting role, this supporting role is very important in the movie. 'Dawn' is aimed at the Spring Festival release, taking the route of family joy, so we still attach great importance to your character."

"In the future, if you have any ideas, just say them out, don't be afraid of offending people. In the crew, we hope that every character is brilliant, rather than having most of the highlights fall on the same person."

"Other movies take the route of personal heroism, attaching great importance to one character, just taking that one character to support the whole show. But our movie takes the route of a group portrait. Only by letting the audience love every character will there be a possibility of filming a sequel."

If what the screenwriter said before was still obscure, then what he said later was very straightforward.

——Don't be afraid of offending people!

——Taking the route of a group portrait!

Jin Li blinked, smiled, and said firmly and powerfully: "Don't worry, I will definitely study this character well and try not to live up to your expectations!"

After Jin Li left, the screenwriter turned to look at Director Chu and said: "I shouldn't have conveyed your meaning wrong, right? You communicated with me just now, you should just want to say these words."

Director Chu nodded and gave his old partner a thumbs up, "Yes, that's right! You expressed all my thoughts without missing a word!"

The screenwriter rolled his eyes speechlessly, "I think Jin Li is quite easy to communicate with, why don't you talk to her yourself?"

"I am just a screenwriter, and you are the director who holds power in the crew. If you say it, Jin Li will pay more attention."

Director Chu said: "I am sitting next to you, what you say is equivalent to what I say, those who understand will understand, no need for too many people to speak."

The screenwriter muttered in his heart: "I think you are just dying for face and suffering, unable to pull down your face to communicate with new actors. If it were Xu Ting and Bai Jiang, you would have pulled them aside to talk well long ago."

But the screenwriter also understood Chu Chenliang's thoughts.

In the eyes of outsiders, Chu Chenliang specializes in special effects films, making China's special effects have their own characteristics, and is a world-renowned director.

But the screenwriter knew Chu Chenliang when he was in college, and the two were "brothers in adversity" who broke into the entertainment industry together after graduation, knowing each other well.

Don't look at Chu Chenliang's surface, he actually has a bit of social phobia inside.

If he doesn't cooperate with familiar actors, he will enter the state relatively slowly.

This is also why the films directed by Director Chu are basically many old people with one newcomer, rather than many newcomers mixed with a few old people.

Outsiders say that Chu Chenliang has a preference for the second female lead in every play, because he often gives the second female lead of the previous play a chance to audition for the first female lead of the next play.

But only he knows that Director Chu doesn't have a preference for the second female lead, but his social phobia has flared up.

Actors who haven't cooperated before will definitely not be able to win his first female lead.

It is estimated that now, he is also exploring how to get along with Jin Li.

Thinking of this, the screenwriter couldn't help but ask: "How do you think Jin Li's acting skills are?"

He added: "I am not a professional, but I have been in the crew with you for these years, and I feel that I have a few eyes for people. I think Jin Li's acting skills are not as mediocre as you said before."

The young man has a quick brain, enters the play quickly, is very serious and focused, and looks like he can endure hardship. This is a good advantage.

Mentioning this, Chu Chenliang is also very confused.

"I don't know if she has done special training these days. The performance in the crew is indeed different from the previous audition."

Let's put it this way, her audition before was like a primary version, and now in the crew it is an advanced version.

The screenwriter shook his head: "I don't know about this, but the actor's acting skills are good, and it saves a lot of trouble in the crew."

Instead, it is the female lead Xu Ting you decided on, whose mind has been restless these past few days... even the lens can't cover her irritability. You should find a time to talk to her.

Director Chu sighed softly: "I will find her tonight."

In the afternoon filming, Jin Li only needs to film one scene, which is a very simple indoor scene.

The Ruan Ruan she plays can't find anyone in the classroom, so she looks for people in the whole school. This time, the super wealthy second-generation wealthy beauty Ruan Ruan started a money-scattering journey.

After Jin Li's suggestion, the screenwriter immediately changed the afternoon scenes.

Originally, it was only necessary to film the scene where Ruan Ruan holds a megaphone and shouts for Ji Ruibin on campus, but in addition to this scene, a scene of giving money was temporarily added.

Because it was a temporary change, it was not written in the script. The screenwriter roughly told Jin Li what the scene was, and Jin Li immediately went up to film it.

In an empty classroom.

Jin Li sat on a chair, a table was placed in front of her, and many people were queuing up with mobile phones, photos, and documents.

"Miss, this is my search record from yesterday and today. Yesterday I was next to Ji Ruibin and persuaded him to follow, and this afternoon I held a megaphone in the classroom to shout for people."

"By the way, this is my WeChat running record, which records my action route, take a look."

When it was someone's turn, that person flatteringly took out many documents, which were very complete.

Ruan Ruan was gnawing on an apple, glanced at it, and couldn't help nodding: "Not bad, not bad, very well prepared, even the running record was printed out, the spirit is commendable!"

Ruan Ruan waved her hand: "Add another 1,000 yuan bonus to you, keep up the good work next time, do a good job!"

As soon as these words came out, the people queuing behind couldn't help but gasp.

Waving her hand and giving 1,000 yuan, and how much did it cost to print a few sheets of paper?

The people who had already queued to the front row couldn't help but pat their thighs in annoyance. If they had known, they would have prepared more fully. It's too late to go back and print now!

The people queuing behind turned their eyes and hurriedly ran to the campus self-service printer to print out all the auxiliary proofs they could think of.

Some people even printed out their WeChat friends and chat records with Ji Ruibin, regardless of whether they were useful or not, print them first.

There are also people who didn't do it so comprehensively, but it's okay to get on the bus first and make up the ticket later. Anyway, they haven't had time to show Ruan Ruan, they are writing, editing, and sending it now!

Even if they are just humble assists, they have to be volume dogs!

Jin Li filmed this scene very smoothly, all the pictures were built in her mind, and it was filmed in one go.

And there are many supporting roles in this scene, and coordination in the picture is a big problem. If everyone has a strong desire to express, the picture will be messy.

But because this scene highlights the comedic effect, the style is the more exaggerated the better.

The actor's "mess" is just the right humor and wit in the picture.

So Director Chu just watched the picture several times and also waved his hand and shouted: "Cut! Passed!"

Hearing the director shout passed, other actors still couldn't react. A passerby who played a dragon set said:

"If I remember correctly, this is the first time the director hasn't asked to film it again since the crew started filming, right?"

Passerby B nodded busily: "Yes, it really passed once. The scenes filmed before had to be reshot from multiple angles after filming."

Xu Ting happened to pass in front of them and heard this conversation, and her brows couldn't help but wrinkle.

But as an A-list star, she couldn't lose her temper with other dragon sets, so she could only speed up and stay away from this place that made her unhappy.

Xu Ting came to the place where she was about to film and turned to say a few words to the assistant.

The assistant nodded and ran to find the field manager.

Not long after, those dragon sets who were watching the fun were stopped by the field manager.

"You guys, yes, you guys, come with me, the crew is short of hands for lighting, you help to light it up!"

Those dragon sets who were stopped were stunned, one of them asked very cleverly: "Field manager, since you are short of hands, then we go to help..."

This person deliberately rubbed his hands in front of the field manager.

The field manager glanced at him: "What are you thinking about? Since I asked you to help, I will definitely pay you according to the miscellaneous personnel. What, you really want to do free voluntary labor?"

Those people smiled.

Running dragon sets is not a problem, and doing miscellaneous work is not a problem, as long as you pay.

On the other side, in the gap of filming, Xu Ting suddenly saw those dragon sets with particularly many mouths running around in the crew, moving props, and her mood was a little more comfortable.

She is different from those people after all.

She is an A-list female star, and others are just dragon sets who come when they are called and go when they are waved.

After Jin Li finished filming her scenes, she didn't stay in the crew, but returned to the apartment.

Another assistant has been sent, which is Xiao Cheng, who often served as their driver before.

Sui Sui Lingfang said this: "Xiao Cheng has been bold since she was a child, works harder than ordinary people, and has a flexible brain."

"If you really encounter any danger, Xiao Cheng is more reliable than Xiao Qin. If you feel anything wrong, tell Xiao Cheng, she dares to investigate."

The three returned to the hotel together. After entering the presidential suite, Xiao Cheng and Chen Qin used various black technologies to check inside and outside, and after confirming that there were no cameras in the room, they let Jin Li in.

Jin Li looked at their actions and said: "Isn't it a bit too fussed? This is a presidential suite after all, and the hotel's management is very strict."

Chen Qin shook her head with a serious face: "Since you know that extreme fans are very likely to be rich people, you can't take it lightly. It's just a presidential suite. Rich people have many means, and it's not impossible to do things in the room."

Xiao Cheng nodded in agreement.

Jin Li went to take a shower first. After she was done and sat down to do practice problems, she found that the two were still walking around in the living room, as if they were searching for something.

Jin Li couldn't help but shake her head. How could she have the treatment of Heng and Ha generals in the human world?

Some things, the more you are afraid, the more arrogant others are.

The more you escape, the more outrageous the internet will spread.

So Jin Li turned on the livestream as usual, open and generous.

Only if she doesn't take this matter seriously, then netizens and fans won't take it seriously.

She has learned all the knowledge of science, and Jin Li began the first round of overall review.

And videos related to review can be found on the Maozhao livestream website.

Jin Li's livestream this time directly opened the famous teacher's video to watch, and started the first round of review in conjunction with the teacher's explanation.

Because Jin Li's learning livestream drove the participation of many learning parties, Maozhao livestream website had long reached a cooperation with local well-known education platforms.

In the few years that Jin Li livestreamed learning, most of the education videos on the education platform were opened to netizens in Maozhao livestream for free, for them to check at will.

Unless it is to encounter some high-gold content, involving topic guessing or some very powerful explanation ideas, it needs to be paid to open.

But the price of payment is not expensive, only one yuan, which is equivalent to earning a shout.

But it is such a one yuan, but it has sold tens of millions of copies!

Jin Li's appeal allowed the education platform to see another possibility. Relying on the path of small profits but quick turnover, not only can the price be lowered, but more people can participate in learning.

Jin Li and Maozhao livestream didn't know that the education platform had begun to discuss the possibility of them continuing to take the path of small profits but quick turnover and opening the education video library after Jin Li stopped learning livestream.

Through the price of 10 yuan per month and 1 yuan for any single course, can the existing basic market be maintained?

The senior management of the education platform didn't know if this would work, but they were willing to bet on the currently hot learning wave.
