Chapter 55 More than 3000 days and nights
To be honest, Zhao Cheng looks terrible now.
The whole face was blue-white, his whole body was weak, his fingers were soaked and he was extremely listless. Especially after the performance that seemed real and fake just now, everyone was still immersed in the play and couldn't recover. If Zhao Cheng's chest was not undulating, he would have been 120 first aid now.
Master Skinny squatted down and looked at Zhao Cheng carefully.
When he was young, he worked as a village doctor in his hometown. Later, when he was working with the crew, the members were dizzy and fever-related, so it was fine to take a brief examination of Zhao Cheng.
"I'm overworked, there's no big problem. Come and drink the orange beef for him." Master Skinny spoke.
Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief.
The fat director sighed beside him that he has been a director for some years, and it is really the first time he has seen such a desperate actor. This is more than just dedication.
It took more than 8 minutes from Zhao Cheng falling into the water to being fished up. During this period, Zhao Cheng could neither swim nor relax, and had to control his expression at all times. In the last two minutes of "dead", he had to hold his breath repeatedly for a certain period of time, not to mention soaking in the bone-chilling and cold river water in the mountains for so long.
After a while, Zhao Cheng, who drank the complete can of orange beef, finally recovered a little and slowly sat up.
The thin master who was teaching the fat director how to cut the camera not far away saw it and immediately threw his apprentice aside and walked to Zhao Cheng with great strides.
"How about a small town? Isn't it better!" Master Skin asked with concern.
"Well, it's much better, Master, have I passed this scene once?" Zhao Cheng wanted to know this question even more.
Master Skinny was stunned for a moment. He was shocked by Zhao Cheng's desperate efforts just now, and then he was pulled by the fat director to ask questions, but he had not had time to watch the replay.
"Wait, I'll watch the playback first."
With a serious and responsible director attitude, Master Skin did not agree to Zhao Cheng at all and decided to take a look first and then answer, but after reading it, he became even more surprised.
Although the crew of "Forgetting Hometown" is poor, they will never save money on hardware. They usually use the dual-camera shooting technique of two groups of A/B, and there is also a spare camera. In this scene, three machines were temporarily rented out from outside and shot together, turning into a luxurious lineup of six machines.
Master Skinny watched Zhao Cheng from six machines each stage from falling into the water to death.
He was shocked to find that no matter where Zhao Cheng was at or even at every angle, he should react and expression, it was exactly the same as what he imagined in his mind.
The reason why outdoor dramas are difficult to shoot is variables.
Whether it is rivers, oceans, forests or mountains, nature is an uncontrollable factor. Master Skinny tried to take a simple sunrise holding hands, and waited for three days, and took photos over and over ten times before he could get a satisfactory picture.
The flow of river water will be more difficult to control than sunrise.
When the first part is steep and fast, the role of young teachers must show panic and desire for survival. When the later part is flat and slowed down, young teachers will despair about death because of exhaustion.
But Zhao Cheng did it all, and he seized every opportunity to express different emotions.
"Master, I'm right." The fat director said happily, "Not even knowing that the master is better than the disciple." When he saw the thin master's face was shocked, he guessed that the master was like himself in the morning and felt incredible to Zhao Cheng.
"I really passed the small town only after filming it once. Is this talent?" Master Skinny asked himself in such a sceptical tone for the first time after being a director for so many years.
"No, it's practice." Zhao Cheng interrupted him.
"For the past nine years, I have been practicing expressions in front of the mirror every day and working hard every day. I have been performing the effect I want at any time, no matter in any occasion or environment!"
The two masters and apprentices stared at him with their eyes wide open.
Master Skinny can't even say anything. Do children nowadays work so hard? Fortunately, he had worried earlier how a young boy like Zhao Cheng could support the emotionally full character of "Young Teacher".
"Nine years old, you are only 18 years old now! Have you worked so hard since you were a child? Ah!" The fat director immediately felt awe.
"Uh, that's right, I'm me. My family is more strict with me." Zhao Cheng took over vaguely.
It’s fake for 18 years, but it’s real for nine years.
During the days when they were hidden, Zhao Cheng did not give up his strict requirements on himself even in the most difficult moments.
For the next nine years of uncertainty, he has been betting on tomorrow with his efforts.
In this life, Zhao Cheng will stand up again in every place where he fell in his previous life.
However, it's a coincidence.
He has been "dead" twice in just a few months after he was reborn, but it is worth it no matter how tired he is, because his scenes in "Forgetting Hometown" were overcomplete in one day. At most, check what's worse and take a few more shots.
Moreover, he also heard from the fat director.
In fact, the filming progress of the crew of "Forgetting Home" was already late last week. All the scenes of all the people, including the protagonist, were almost finished, but they were dragged by Tian Haomin, which made them unable to get up or down.
If the post-processing speed is fast, it might be earlier than the original scheduled release date and can also seize the final summer vacation.
Zhao Cheng speculated that perhaps the box office of "Forgetting Home" will be higher this time than in his previous life, and it is definitely beneficial and harmless to play such a likable role.
He happily posted the news on the forum as Zhao Cheng's anonymous fan, and called on those hardcore fans in the group to come and watch it.
One week later.
After handling the follow-up work of "Forgetting Hometown", Zhao Cheng returned to his hometown Shuicheng for two days. Because the final payment for the film pay had been paid, he had already been paid.
In fact, for Zhao Cheng, who is in the current situation, as long as the tuition and livelihood problems are solved, money will not have much effect on Zhao Cheng, and his dream is that he cannot buy it with money.
Of course, if you have to buy it, this little money is not enough.
So he simply gave most of his pay to his parents as a silent compensation, but his parents thought he had committed a fraud, so they almost killed his parents and took him to the police station for justice. Fortunately, he also brought his contract and payment certificate with him, so he explained it clearly to his parents.
After two days of leisure and relaxation, Zhao Cheng returned to the capital that he had not set foot in a month.
Teacher Wu was very good. He prepared the legal certificate of the Music Mutual Assistance Association before the opening of the new bar street, and Zhong Heng's senior brother lost the conditions to threaten Zhong Heng, but the Coast Life Bar ushered in two other bad news.
