You made me a superstar

Chapter 24 Double Torment
Zhou Yang was indeed dazed.

He feels tired.

During this period of time, he had accepted too many things at once, and his brain couldn't digest them normally, but he was also a little eager for success, always wanting to understand and understand as soon as possible, and then show the perfect plot of the movie.

There is an idiom called "pulling seedlings to encourage growth".

Zhou Yang had this taste from the beginning.

He even began to analyze the story line of "Blind Well" very seriously according to the method of "dual conflict and opposite analysis of stories" in "Director's Handbook".

Substitute it in like this.

He found a lot of movies to be generic.

In the mine murder duo, Tang Zhaoyang played by Chen Shuangbao is absolutely evil.

His evil is manifested in every corner.

Eerie, terrifying, full of disregard for life, only seeing himself, and then only interests.

This is a pure evil that cannot be changed by circumstances or anyone.

Song Jinming, another character played by Zhao Zhen, has a more human flavor in him. Although he is evil, he is also full of disregard for life and has a sense of selfishness, but he is not extremely pure.

There is still a glimmer of humanity in him...

As for the next character, Zhang Fengming, a young underage, a child who dropped out of school to work due to poverty, is full of goodwill and hope for the world. (Yuan Fengming in the original "Blind Well").

Even dissecting the whole movie, Zhou Yang found that this movie can be divided into the despair of human nature and a little bit of hope.

Just like when the movie started shooting, the long, one-shot approach to the end of the mineshaft hinted.

Analyzing and analyzing.

Zhou Yang started substituting himself into the role of "Zhang Fengming" unconsciously...

I imagined what I would do when faced with the situation in the movie...

He even began to take the character's personal notes very seriously, and wrote the character's autobiography and life background self-righteously.

Gradually, he began to recite the lines and make actions involuntarily according to his memory.

He looked in the mirror and began to ponder...

"No, no!"

"continue……"

"No! This is absolutely not possible, it almost tastes..."

"continue……"

"No, the taste of acting is too strong, we have to continue!"

"..."

Silent night.

With half a bucket of water, Zhou Yang inevitably began to feel drowsy.

He put down the mirror in a daze and went to bed, his body was endlessly exhausted.

However, lying in his sleep, he had a dream of acting.

In the dream, he seemed to open the box of memory fragments, and the role of the child in "The Blind Well" seemed to gradually become clear, as if he had become that child...

Performing over and over again, subverting, and then continuing to perform, continuing to overthrow...

Almost masochistically chasing the perfection of the movie.

But he doesn't know...

Outside the window, a figure shivered from the cold.

Finally, with his head down, he walked back into the house as if thinking of something.

....................................

Director and actor are probably two concepts.

Although there is a saying in the film and television industry that good acting leads to directing, but a director who can direct a movie well may not be able to act a movie well.

The next day, the crew started working again.

Starting work means a kind of torture for everyone, especially for Feng Kai.

Many filming staff members were discussing in private whether today's Director Feng would suddenly be unable to suppress his emotions and explode, and finally confronted Zhou Yang.

Some people even began to simulate the situation when Feng Kai broke out, and then they began to think about what their position is...

Is it to remain silent and be a bystander, or to persuade one party, and then reconcile the conflict between the two parties?

They are quite conflicted.

but……

After the filming actually started, they suddenly found that the atmosphere of the crew had become extremely weird again.

Facing the camera, Feng Kai was almost immersed, and made a completely different expression from yesterday.

He pulled the characters played by Zhao Zhen and Chen Shuangbao to chat about the plot of the aftermath...

He wore glasses, and he looked a little flustered after hearing the incident, but then he became shrewd and cunning, and even when the "relatives of the victims" were talking about the aftermath subsidies, he started to use both soft and hard tactics. Treat life as a transaction, as a set of cold numbers...

That was an extremely ironic feeling!

Even looking at the camera and listening to Feng Kai's voice, he can feel this subtle feeling.

The staff were once shocked whether the person in the camera was director Feng Kaifeng, or was possessed by some capitalist who disregarded human life.

The feeling of selfishness and regards human life as profit is vividly interpreted, even the miners and actors who are also filming rivals fell into a state of incompatibility for a while.

This scene is done!

Breaking away from the role, Feng Kai let out a long sigh of relief, straightened his disheveled hair a little, and glanced at Zhou Yang.

Seeing Zhou Yang's excited eyes, he applauded from a distance.

It has achieved the effect he wanted.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he walked up to Zhou Yang step by step.

"Director Zhou..."

"Ok?"

"Show me the camera."

"it is good!"

"Director Zhou, this scene, I personally think the camera needs to be reshot!"

"what?"

"I think it's better to use a documentary filming method. Well, this movie is not so much a movie as it is a record of the dark side of this society. The irony of the contrast between despair and hope is officially included in this movie. At the same time, the lighting effect of this movie is also a kind of suggestive technique to some extent..."

"..."

Feng Kai lit a cigarette and smoked.

While smoking, he stared at Zhou Yang.

He saw Zhou Yang's puzzled expression, but he was still serious.

He said a lot of professional things, and his understanding of the script of this movie, and more on the shooting techniques and the lighting effect he wanted to present to analyze the tone of the whole movie.

Zhou Yang listened to Feng Kai tell him a lot of things, he seemed to understand half understood, but his heart was even more at a loss.

but!

He was emotional.

He finally saw Feng Kai's serious attitude towards this movie!
He thought for a long time, and finally nodded.

"Well, continue... Director Feng."

in the theater.

Feng Kai talked to Zhou Yang endlessly about the shooting content and the shortcomings of the lens.

Zhou Yang's mind was like a paste.

However, he forced himself to write it down and didn't bother Feng Kai.

I don't even feel the pain and loss of being crushed in my heart...

On the contrary, I am very excited!

He can finally learn knowledge beyond books!

That's how it is!

If good movies can be made by reading a "Director's Handbook" and some messy director books, then what's the point of Yanying's directing students who have studied for several years?
He simply took advantage of the innate advantages of time travel to make this movie according to his memory, and judged whether the performance was suitable or not, but in fact, he was in a state of half-knowledge about the whole movie.

And many of Feng Kai's words can even make him suddenly enlightened!
He feels like a sponge, absorbing the knowledge and gifts everyone has given him.

"There is also the problem of the script... I thought about the script very seriously yesterday. The script was written in fragments. It doesn't fit the current state of the character, in my opinion, it needs to be revised, it is best to use dialects to assist these dialogues, so that there is no sense of disobedience... Director Zhou, what do you think?" Feng Kai looked at Zhou Yang , to seek Zhou Yang's opinion.

He seems to be in the mood.

"..."

........................

in the afternoon.

Filming continues...

Originally thought that Zhou Yang's torture was already the limit.

However, when Feng Kai suddenly changed into a different person and appeared in the crew as a real assistant director.

Everyone began to realize that the real despair had just begun...

Even this kind of despair involved Zhang Genshui, the investor...
