On the 11th day, Wang Bo drove to Jiang Mei's hometown and met with his other pair of "father-in-law and mother-in-law".

Compared to each other in Tian Xin's home, everyone was not comfortable. At Jiang Mei's house, he was much more comfortable, and it was like returning to his own home.

Before entering the door, he was a little worried that his father-in-law Jiang Dayou would have an attitude towards him. After all, he had slept with his daughter for many years, and he also allowed his daughter to follow him without any fame for so many years. For a father with normal values ​​and ethics, it was always a bit frustrating and disgraceful thing.

However, after entering the door, facing his son-in-law, Jiang Dayou's previous care and flattery towards him remained the same, but there was an unprecedented joy on his face that could not be hidden. Jiang Dayou's look at him, greeting him, the enthusiasm, flattery, and smiles on his face. In Wang Bo's opinion, it was exactly the same as looking at his son-in-law!

Wang Bo, who has been a human being for two lifetimes, was so familiar with the meaning of this expression that the tension that could not help but appear before entering the door was suddenly useless. He suddenly relaxed and became much more comfortable. He thought that today he could finally "escape" without having to have lunch, but he could play on the mountain.

Wang Bo rested at Jiang Mei's house for a night and stayed until the next morning before leaving.

While spending the night at the Jiang family, the benefits of identity change were suddenly reflected:

Finally, he didn't have to sneak in and "stolen" Jiang Mei like a thief, and instead took Jiang Mei's hand openly to sleep in her boudoir.

After bidding farewell to Jiang Mei's family, Wang Bo left two relatives in the next two days and attended a high school class reunion, and the entire winter vacation was almost over.

The last semester of his senior year started as scheduled after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. At the same time, his debut work "Crazy Stone" directed by him was also on the start of the filming time.

On February 17, 2005, the day after Wang Bo started school, the crew of the movie "Crazy Stone" gathered in Shancheng and held a simple start-up ceremony at a sponsored hotel in Shuangqing. After beating a big drum, pulling the banner, and officially started the film.

Due to insufficient budget, in the last life, "Crazy Stone" not only couldn't afford famous actors, but the entire shooting cycle was also quite hasty. All the shots were filmed in just over 40 days.

Although there is no shortage of budget in this life, Wang Bo does not intend to make the shooting cycle too long. Moreover, because he has watched the entire movie several times in his previous life, all the classic scenes are kept in his mind. At that time, the original cast will directly set the scene and act, and even the extra shots may not be taken. The post-production editing can also be cut according to the previous life to save time and costs.

This is the benefit of cheating.

In the whole of February and March of 2005, Wang Bo led the crew to move several shooting locations in the previous life of "Crazy Stone": Jialing River Cableway, the light rail station of Line 2 that had just been opened, the Luohan Temple of Jiefangbei, Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street, Nanbin Road Riverside, and other series of shooting locations.

During the filming, Wang Bo knew his weight. During the entire filming period, he divided the work with Ning Hao, the former director of the previous life and the deputy director of this life. He told the actors about the opera, corrected, guided and tuned the actors' acting skills throughout the process. Ning Hao was responsible for shooting. The two had a clear division of labor, and they did not go against each other, and they cooperated very happily.

Ning Hao's instinct is photography, and he also studied photography at Beijing Film Academy. He is considered a professional photography student. Later, he slowly began to shoot some small commercials and films, and then he turned to the direction of the director. Most of the time, the filming of "Crazy Stone" in the previous life was filmed by him, the director, personally.

Wang Bo is so familiar with the lines, sets, and the performances of the protagonists and supporting roles in the play "Crazy Stone" are so vivid. Although he has no experience in talking about the play, he is very knowledgeable and targeted when talking about the play with the actors. Sometimes, the actors do not understand his meaning for a while, and he even dances to the actors and demonstrates himself.

During the entire filming of "Crazy Stone", both the cast and the local passers-by around to watch the show can often be seen in a young man in his early twenties, wearing large sunglasses and a baseball cap with a pen, full of enthusiasm and excitement, and he talks about the show at a group of actors with both strokes.

The drama was filmed day by day with the joint efforts of the crew according to the script and storyboard. In addition to the filming progress of the director Wang Bo, who did not enter the state at first, the filming progress was a bit slow, and it wasted a lot of camera memory after many times. The further we went to the back, as everyone became familiar with each other, the most important thing was that Wang Bo himself was familiar with the director's business that he had never done before, and the shooting progress became faster and faster, and even many of the shots in the back were passed in one go.

As the crew's view of Wang Bo, the young director, also deepened the filming, as his "talent" was revealed, he gradually became deeply admired and admired from the beginning to the end. Because this "little director" grew up too fast. Especially when he was talking about the drama to the actors, this feeling was particularly strong. Although the director had scripts to follow when filming, many times, the script was just a reference. In real shooting, the director and actors may make some changes to the script to a certain extent, or make a certain degree of change to the script, or a question to a certain extent.

The camera, a picture, is performed differently and has different attempts in order to achieve the best results. Because many times, although the director has certain ideas about the image of the characters in the play, this idea is not always clear and sometimes vague. He is not very clear and difficult to describe it in words. He can only wait for the actors to act once and then see if the content of the performance matches the positioning of the role in his mind. If it does not match and is too far from what he imagines, then he can only come back and let the actors try it over and over again.

Sometimes, the actors may not be able to act over and over again, but the director himself does not have an accurate positioning of the role and does not understand which one is the best, so he can only torture the actors and let the actors perform again and again, and then he calls it, "I'm constantly striving for excellence and strictness." But the tortured actors will think:

Anyway, you are the director in the crew with the greatest power, so you just say yes.

However, in Wang Bo's crew, the actors and the staff around him were surprised to find that although Director Wang had no experience as a director and even made some low-level jokes at the beginning, they made them funny and dared not laugh, the positioning of the other party's role in the play was extremely clear and accurate. Each character, in each scene's expression, movement, language, and expression, can express it in clear, accurate, rather than ambiguous language.

Sometimes, in order to strengthen the effect of explanation and make it better for the actors to understand, he even personally jumped out of the show and demonstrated it with comparisons. Although his acting skills are not very good because of non-professional actors, and even made them laugh, the actors, including supporting actors, easily understood what he wanted to express and how to accurately interpret the role he played.

In short, although Wang Bo, a young director who is a fledgling director, is still a little immature in many aspects due to his lack of experience in the specific directing process, his deep understanding of the script and his precise portrayal of the characters in the play are as if no one can match it. It seems that every character, including the supporting role, is vivid and exists in his mind.

After nearly fifty days of intense filming, the movie was finally completed on the last day of March 2005.
Chapter completed!
