Chapter 101 supper
After the opening ceremony, the filming naturally began.
However, at the beginning, the shooting progress was not very fast because of the cooperation between the two crews of Japan and Hong Kong.
Fortunately, everyone knows that this is a necessary step, so no one has any opinions on this, everything is going on in an orderly manner.
"A Chinese Ghost Story" is a ghost film, which is an obvious fact, and ghosts are actually reflected in cultures of various countries, so Chen Yu is not worried that the audience will not be able to understand Nie Xiaoqian's identity as a ghost.
Akina Nakamori quickly adapted to the image of the female ghost she played, and often pretended to be a female ghost on the set to scare people.
Fortunately, she was just playing tricks, but no one was really scared.
However, Chen Yu could see that although she tried to show a happy look, she would still show sorrow when she was alone. Obviously, the previous things were still impressing her.
Chen Yu wanted to enlighten her and make her feel more open-minded, but after saying it twice, Akina Nakamori looked as if she was stupid and blocked Chen Yu back, making it difficult for him to continue saying anything more.
Moreover, during filming, her little bit of sadness can better demonstrate Nie Xiaoqian’s accusation of unfair fate.
It is precisely because of this that Chen Yu did not talk much after thinking about it for a while.
After all, this is her own business, and it is not easy for outsiders to interfere.
In addition to Akina Nakamori, other actors in the crew also performed very well. Although everyone seemed a little bumpy because they had not yet been running in and entered the state, after a few days of adjustment, everyone gradually adapted to the rhythm and everything became smoother.
"Click!" Tsui Hark behind the monitor shouted, and one shot was finally finished after reshooting twice.
This scene is taken by Ning Caichen on the way to Lanruo Temple, where he was fleeing in a panic and was finally rescued by Nie Xiaoqian.
Because the script sets it at night, a large group of people can only wait until it gets dark before taking this scene.
The previous two NG times were that Leslie Cheung, who played Ning Caichen, fell on a mountain road and needed to reshoot it, while the other time, the dog used by the crew to disguise as a wolf did not run as planned. Fortunately, after two adjustments, the shot was finally completed successfully.
Seeing the staff beside him packing their things, Chen Yu came to Leslie Cheung and asked him in English: "Mr. Zhang, I saw you fall just now, there is no problem, right?"
"It's okay, I just slid a little while running, which made me reshoot it. I'm so sorry." Leslie Cheung didn't think anything was wrong because of his fall, but instead felt sorry for the NG caused by his own reasons.
Seeing Leslie Cheung's modest and kind look, Chen Yu couldn't help but sigh that he was indeed a "brother" known for his good temper, without any airs.
And just as the two were chatting, Akina Nakamori, wearing a white dress, suddenly jumped over and asked Chen Yu, "Chen Yujun, what are you talking about?"
Because most ghosts are considered to be wearing white clothes, both in China and Japan, Akina Nakamori's look in the movie is still the same white dress as the original one.
At first, Toho proposed to let Akina Nakamori wear a kimono, preferably a pure white Bai Wuque, which felt that it would be more like a ghost bride. However, after thinking about it, Chen Yu chose to support Tsui Hark and adopt a Chinese style.
After all, this is a Chinese-style monster story, and adding Japanese elements to it will look weird.
Fortunately, Nakamori understood that he was indeed naturally beautiful, and even in Chinese costumes, he could still control the classical charm of the painting that Tsui Hark deliberately asked someone to paint.
However, the only regret may be Akina Nakamori's hair. As an idol singer, Akina Nakamori's hair during this period was not the classical black and straight hairstyle, but had a very fashionable short hairstyle, so it was very troublesome to use a headband during shooting.
Although the same is true for other actors, another actress, Joey Wong obviously does not need to use a headgull.
"Mr. Zhang fell just now, and I was asking him if he was fine." Chen Yu explained to Akina Nakamori in Japanese, and then suggested: "It's so late, everyone is hungry. Akina Jiang, Mr. Zhang, should I go for a midnight snack together?"
"I don't care, but can I find a place to have a midnight snack in this wilderness?" Leslie Cheung understood Chen Yu's words, but he acted very much, and even felt eager to try it out.
Akina Nakamori, who was standing by, also did not object, but was curious about where Chen Yu would go for a midnight snack.
Because of the filming of the suburbs, the crew was indeed in a wilderness. When they came here, the crew drove for more than an hour before they came. Although after completing today's shooting, the crew was going back to Tokyo, it was already very late to go back. Now Chen Yu said he wanted to have a midnight snack. Can you find a place?
However, Chen Yu smiled mysteriously and said to the two of you: "As long as you want to eat, you will naturally be able to find a place to have a midnight snack. And I promise you that the things are definitely worth the trip."
"Is that so? Then I have no objection." Akina Nakamori said this, and after a little consideration, he agreed.
Leslie Cheung, who saw that Akina Nakamori had no objection, naturally followed the guests and agreed to Chen Yu's proposal.
The three of them greeted the crew, took Akina Nakamori and Leslie Cheung's agent, and the five of them plus a driver, drove a car from the crew and drove to the place Chen Yu said.
The place where Chen Yu said to have had late-night snacks was not too far away. After driving for more than half an hour, the car took them to the place, and a fishing port where there were still boats docked late at night.
"This is the place where you are talking about eating midnight snacks? It seems that no restaurant is still open!" Akina Nakamori looked around and saw that there was darkness and silence in the fishing port, except for the fishing boats that were approaching the port, so she immediately asked Chen Yu complainingly.
"The midnight snack I mentioned was on the boat. This is seafood that has just been fished from the sea. It will be delivered to Tokyo by dawn." Chen Yu explained to the two of them. It turned out that he had already greeted the owner of the ship and asked the owner to leave him a piece of seafood.
After listening to Chen Yu's explanation, Akina Nakamori and Leslie Cheung suddenly felt a sense of novelty. The two of them were well-informed and had never eaten such a late-night snack. They couldn't help but look forward to it.
