Chapter 708 The first scene
No one expected that Wesley would actually speak for Xiao Bing. In fact, most people were not interested in Xiao Bing before this, but the two people who had the strongest opposition were the two, one of them was Scott, the other one was Wesley. Now I didn't expect that when everyone suspected Xiao Bing, Wesley was the first to jump out.
Outside, Director Zhang Mouzi, Wesley, a male actor and an actress were walking in from outside, and they were all from this crew. When Xiao Bing and Tiger were fighting, these people were also present.
The male actor and actress were in the crowd before, so Xiao Bing didn't pay attention. When he looked at it, he felt that he looked familiar. He might not be that big shot, but he should have reached the level of the second-tier. Xiao~ Say~ Seeing Wesley actually defending Xiao Bing and speaking, the director Scott was also surprised. However, he and Wesley were both big names from Hollywood after all. According to fame and status in Hollywood, both of them were comparable to the top, and they were much higher than that Tiger's fame. Although Scott was not very happy, he was not very good to quarrel with Wesley directly here, so he didn't say much, but the suspicion and distrust in his eyes were still unconcealed.
When Zhang Mouzi and Bi Tingting saw it, they knew that if they wanted to dispel everyone's suspicion, it would be useless to say anything more. Unless they really saw Xiao Bing's acting skills, it would be useless to say anything.
The Chinese actors present basically watched the video of Xiao Bing in the zoo. They were also amazed at Xiao Bing's kung fu and courage. This was another reason why they did not speak out. It was not just because they were concerned about Bi Tingting present, but the actors were mainly acting. They did not doubt whether Xiao Bing's kung fu could be shown, but they doubted whether Xiao Bing had acting skills. This was something Zhang Mouzi still doubted in his heart.
If Xiao Bing's acting skills are really bad, even if his kung fu is good, Zhang Mouzi must kick him out of the crew no matter how regretful he is.
After all, as a director, Zhang Mouzi is responsible to everyone for such a drama, and at the same time he is responsible to several companies that invest in this drama, so no matter how powerful he has in the crew, he dare not just do whatever he wants.
However, it is time to smooth things over, but it still needs to smooth things over. Zhang Mouzi smiled and said, "Actually, no one in this world can do anything to do. After all, aren't anyone born to act? And there are also people who are from grassroots and have not received professional training, so this is normal."
Zhang Mouzi's words were spoken in Chinese because there were the most Chinese people present, and next to the director-general, there was a young man wearing glasses as a translator, who translated the passage to the original version.
Everyone thought to themselves that they didn't trust Xiao Bing, but Zhang Mouzi said so, so they didn't refute it. The director-general Scott was so angry that he didn't say anything, but he didn't look good. He said in a cold tone: "Then start filming now? I happened to see how Mr. Xiao Bing acted."
Scott was very unhappy and thought to himself that he would take a while to see how embarrassing this man was, to see what Zhang Mouzi had to say, and to kick Xiao Bing out of the crew at that time.
Other actors also had similar mentality and lacked trust in Xiao Bing. In a movie with such a big investment, the male protagonist should have found a popular male actor. Zhang Mouzi won’t say anything after choosing an internet celebrity. Moreover, this internet celebrity is also a noodle restaurant owner. Although he does know how to do it, acting is not good enough!
The most important thing about acting is acting!
Zhang Mouzi was also very nervous whether Xiao Bing's acting skills were good. Not only Zhang Mouzi was nervous, but in fact even Bi Tingting was unsure.
Bi Tingting knew that Xiao Bing was very good at fighting and had high kung fu, but she had never seen acting skills before. This time she insisted on recommending Xiao Bing to the crew, but in fact she was willful once and wanted to bring the man she loved the most into the crew. At least for more than a month, the two of them would be together every day.
Zhang Mouzi clapped his hands and said, "Then let's do it. Today we will film the second act of the first scene. Liu Yue, you and Liu Hua will make a play together."
The young girl who had just walked in with Zhang Mouzi was stunned for a moment. A male actor in the crowd came out and said curiously: "Director Zhang, shouldn't the scene between Liu Yue and me be in the afternoon? Shouldn't it be Xiao Bing and Liu Yue's sidekick? It should be the meeting between the male lead and the female lead?"
This Liu Yue is the actress who has seen Xiao Bing and Tiger fight before. Although she is not as good as Bi Tingting, she is still pretty good. She is a new generation of power in the entertainment industry. Although her status may not be very high, she is already very famous and has great potential in the future.
That Liu Hua is the male actor who spoke at this time.
Zhang Mouzi explained: "Xiao Bing is a newcomer after all, so you two have sex first, just let him take a look around and find out what he feels like. He is not a professional actor, so it is not that easy to get into the show."
Seeing Zhang Mouzi say this, Liu Hua stopped talking. In fact, this is a very normal thing. He just asked casually. He was about to agree, but he didn't expect Xiao Bing to say directly: "It doesn't matter, isn't the first scene mine? I've already come here, just let me try it."
Everyone looked at Xiao Bing like an idiot, thinking that Xiao Bing was too ungrateful and at least understood that he was a newcomer, so he asked him to act later. As a result, this person was still a stubborn person. Everyone did not admire him, but felt that this person's head was not active enough, and he would definitely be embarrassing at that time.
Alas, I really don’t know how Bi Tingting would recommend such a person. If he was kicked out of the crew, it would be no big deal, but after all, he would slap Bi Tingting in the face, leaving Bi Tingting’s face blank.
Xiao Bing seemed to have not noticed the look of everyone looking at him, and didn't know what everyone was thinking. He smiled and said, "If I can't do it, let them come first."
Just as Zhang Mouzi was about to say something, director Scott suddenly said: "I'm afraid that acting is not as good as that? This drama is so important, how can you give you so much time to study? If you can't act, then just invite the crew and we will find other actors."
Scott said it in English. The translator was about to translate it out next to him. Xiao Bing waved his hand and smiled and said, "No, I can understand it. Then please tell this old man too. If my acting makes you feel dissatisfied with it, I don't need to stay and study, nor do I need others to invite me out of the crew, I will leave myself."
When Xiao Bing said this, Gao Shanshan was startled, Zhang Mouzi was startled, West was also shocked, and Bi Tingting couldn't help but smile bitterly. They all felt that Xiao Bing shouldn't say this, leaving no room for maneuver, but Xiao Bing had already said this. Even if he was such a person, he would have no choice.
When he heard Xiao Bing's words, the famous Chinese actors shook their heads. Young people are prone to impulsiveness, while Scott's face eased a little, thinking, in short, it's enough to drive you away. It doesn't matter whether you have fame or not. Our crew should not be young people who come in through the back door without acting skills.
It's time to come, and it's useless to say more.
Zhang Mouzi said, "Let's go, go to the first scene to shoot."
The first act is the second female lead played by Xiao Bing and Liu Yue meet in the strong wind.
At this time, Zhang Mouzi asked the deputy director to arrange the extras to be ready. Liu Yue whispered beside Xiao Bing: "I saw your Tai Chi Kung Fu just now, it's really great."
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "Is that so? Thank you for your praise."
Liu Yue smiled bitterly and said, "But you really should watch the show first. You haven't acted it once. It's too difficult to satisfy everyone at the beginning."
Xiao Bing smiled indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter, let the best of his power and leave his destiny."
After hearing Xiao Bing say this, Liu Yue couldn't continue to say anything more. She felt a little regretful and sighed. Xiao Bing was too stubborn. The reason why she felt so regretful was that she was conquered by Xiao Bing's previous beautiful Tai Chi skills. If she was kicked out of the crew in the end, it would be a pity. If he watched two more scenes and then looked for the feeling by himself, the hope of staying might be greater, but now... alas.
At this time, some people were organizing extras, and some people prepared props. Today is sunny, but this scene requires a strong wind, so high-power props are needed to blow the wind. All of this needs to be arranged. Zhang Mouzi began to talk about the scene next to him: "This scene is like this, Xiao Bing, you are a successor of Tai Chi, but you are not a master now. You are just a poor boy who has just entered this prosperous city from the countryside. Although he has all his skills, he doesn't know anything about this city."
"And you, Liu Yue, the second female lead you play is the daughter of a daughter. In this scene, you and your maid sneaked out of your home and prepared to go to the temple to burn incense. As a result, the strong wind along the way met the male lead played by Xiao Bing. You two had only one action. When you passed by, you almost fell down. He hugged you, and then threw away your handkerchief and picked it up by him."
"Xiao Bing, I'm relieved of Liu Yue. I believe there is nothing wrong with her. But you are different. Don't underestimate this scene, but you have to show all the feeling in the strong wind... Also, you should be natural when you pick it up, don't look too artificial, do you understand? Alas, this scene can be done this morning."
Xiao Bing nodded and said with a smile: "It's okay."
"Okay, you've prepared everything there, let's start now!"
All the actors and staff gathered around the camera. They wanted to see how this internet celebrity who had never acted in the show performed. According to their experience, Xiao Bing should not be like a role, but as long as he is at a loss.
