Chapter 284 Lottery, rare buff
What the hell is it that I want to film?
Wu Mu was a little confused.
Seeing him like this, Lin Qingyue smiled and said, "I don't want to film Xiaoshu's story, I want to film your story."
"You don't have to think about what kind of personality the little tree has or how he would react. Just think about yourself, Wu Mu, when you were fifteen or sixteen years old, and how you would react when you received a letter like this."
Then she said simply, "How about this, let's change the character's name, Xiaoshu to Wumu, and you don't have to worry about Xiaoshu anymore, from now on this character will be Wumu."
Change to Wu Mu?
"Is that what you call him in private?" Wu Mu asked hesitantly.
"No, just change them all, and use this name in the footage as well."
Director Lin was quite free in temporarily changing the character's name to the actor's real name.
Feeling Wu Mu's speechlessness, Lin Qingyue thought for a moment and explained, "In fact, for the content I want to shoot, the character's name is not important. The character's personality, background, story background, and even the story itself are not important. They can all be changed."
"Then what's important?"
"Feel."
"Feel?"
"Yes, a feeling. When I finished reading this story, I had a feeling in my heart. And based on this feeling, I immediately thought of you. So as long as this film can capture this feeling, I think it will be a success."
Wu Mu looked himself up and down, but he didn't feel anything.
Why did you tell Lin Qingyue something so mysterious?
And he didn't quite understand how he should play the role of himself.
People's reactions are ultimately based on reality and settings.
Even if the character's name was changed to Wu Mu, he is not that character after all, and he has not experienced everything that character has experienced.
There is no such thing as a person who likes to send a letter to him again after not contacting him for half a year.
How was he supposed to imagine how he would react?
Wu Mu was doubtful.
Seeing him thinking, Lin Qingyue said, "Let's change the shooting plan. Let's shoot this part later. We won't shoot it in the order of scenes. Let's shoot it in chronological order first. Let's shoot the part where you transfer to the new school and haven't met Xiaoli yet. This will give you more room to perform."
If you want to change the name, you change the name; if you want to change the shooting plan, you change the shooting plan.
It can only be said that this kind of freedom is allowed for art films. If it were a normal commercial film, even if it needed to be changed, they would definitely have to hold a meeting to discuss it and greet all the investors.
Yan Yongmei, who was at the scene of the art film, had a blank expression on her face. As long as she didn't lose money, it was fine.
The opening was a failure, but most people at the scene were still in a fairly stable mood.
Many of these people are Lin Qingyue’s old colleagues. They have worked with Lin Qingyue in more than one film and have long been accustomed to Lin Qingyue’s style.
The crew took a break and started to rearrange the scene.
Wu Mu also took out the script and thought about how to perform the new scene later.
Director Lin Qingyue did not watch the scene, but sat next to Wu Mu. She looked at the words "relaxed?" and "calm?" that Wu Mu had underlined on the script, and immediately exclaimed, "Oh!" and said with a smile:
"That's the state you were in when you were fifteen or sixteen. Don't tell me you were that mature when you were fifteen or sixteen."
Are you fifteen or sixteen years old?
Wu Mu recalled that he seemed to be more mature than his peers?
After all, I like to read miscellaneous books usually. If I read too much, I will naturally feel that I am different from ordinary students.
But after all, he is just an ordinary rural student.
He couldn't help it, "Director Lin, are you really going to let me act as I want?"
"Yes, just act according to yourself. As long as it is truly the real you, any problems will be my responsibility." Lin Qingyue waved her hand generously.
It took two or three hours to rearrange the set.
After explaining the precautions to the extras, the crew resumed filming.
"Camera ready!"
"Action!"
Wu Mu, who had put on new makeup, stood in front of the classroom, looking at the students below the stage. For the first time, he did not think about how he would act later, but just recalled his state when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.
As he recalled the past, he felt as if he had entered a state of emptiness.
I didn't think about anything in my mind, and I didn't do anything. I didn't think about what kind of light and shadow to use, or what kind of actions and expressions to use. I just stood there.
"it is good."
"Pass!"
Is this over?
Is it really enough to just play yourself? Wu Mu was a little dazed.
He couldn't help but run to the monitor to check.
The monitor played back the scene he had just filmed.
In the picture, he is standing on the podium. Apart from looking handsome and the picture being beautiful, he seems quite ordinary?
There was no special expression on his face, just an ordinary transfer student.
This shot is also very short, probably appearing as a background flashback in the movie, only a few seconds.
Anyway, Wu Mu didn’t get any “feeling” from these few seconds.
But Lin Qingyue didn't seem to think there was a problem. After watching this passage several times, she nodded with satisfaction, "That's it. Just keep this empty state."
Wu Mu finally understood. It turned out that this person had intended for him to play himself from the beginning. No wonder he was invited long ago when he had not yet shown any acting talent.
Over the next few days, Wu Mu basically passed every performance in one take, and it seemed like Lin Qingyue really had no expectations of his acting skills.
But when Wu Mu went to see him, he felt that apart from the fact that he was indeed handsome, there was nothing particularly eye-catching about him.
This situation really makes Wu Mu worried about the final quality of Lin Qingyue's drama.
Wouldn't this result in a movie that loses more money than Wang Ren's movie?
but.
【Points: 2407】
"The points increased by more than 200?"
Wu Mu looked at the points panel in confusion.
He remembered that before he came, he only had more than 2,200 points. In just a few days, his points increased by almost 200?
Is the speed of increasing points much faster than when I filmed Wang Ren’s drama?
Even if the supporting role became the main role, the salary increased by 200 in a few days. This speed is too fast!
"Is this true? This is a bit unscientific."
The growth rate of points is calculated comprehensively based on heat and quality.
There is no doubt that Lin Qingyue's film will be popular. Even if he hadn't used his performance to boost the popularity, a box office of 50 or 60 million would be considered high.
There is only this market for art films. Even if we aim for a higher box office of 100 million, it still cannot compare with commercial films.
There is no doubt about the popularity, which means the quality is higher than he imagined?
But no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see any high quality aspect.
Could it be that he has no appreciation for art films?
"Or is there some other mechanism that I don't know about? Does the system provide points support for movies and art films?"
Wu Mu was a little confused.
"But no matter what, the system panel has been opened, so let's draw a prize!"
Looking at so many points, he felt a little addicted to drawing.
More than 2,400 points. The Legendary Voice program had drawn a point once before, and there were still more than 560 points left.
For the next two episodes, he was given an additional salary of nearly 1,600 yuan, and some media interviews in between also added more than 100 yuan.
Add another two hundred to the number in the next few days and this is the final number.
There is nothing I need urgently at the moment. I am currently filming a movie and can continue to earn points.
"Keep four hundred as a reserve, and take the rest."
"Ah Tong, buy me ten white treasure chests and one gold treasure chest, and then open the white treasure chest directly!"
Wu Mu, who had plenty of points, waved his hand proudly.
He also made a wish: "Give me a few good quality movie or TV scripts, so that I can invest in my own acting in the future."
On the system panel, a flash of white mixed with golden light appeared.
