Chapter 305 Chapter 304, It Has Not Begun Yet, It Has Already Ended
Brother Dawei is a man with aspirations!

Assistant directors of other crews who want to take advantage of actresses usually target girls from art schools, beautiful female extras, or 18th-tier actresses.

These beauties have a low starting point and low requirements. The most they ask is the assistant director to introduce the director to them, or they beg the assistant director to give them a little more shots within the scope of his authority.

But the guy in front of me actually set his sights on the leading actress, Xu Qing, the beautiful lady... He is really courageous and has high ideals.

Just for this, I have to give him a thumbs up!

Of course, the assistant director named Dawei was standing at the door of the dressing room and muttering quietly, deliberately letting Jiang Feng hear it. Jiang Feng could imagine his intention.

Jiang Feng, I fell in love with Xu Qing first, and even slipped a note through her door. I hope you won't compete with me, even if you are the leading actor in the TV series "Swordsman"...

To be honest, Jiang Feng himself had never thought about snatching Xu Qing away, because at this moment, the boyfriend of this beautiful woman was Ji Xianlin's last disciple Liu Bo.

Just as Jiang Feng was sitting in the makeup chair, thinking about the mess that had just happened, the makeup artist from the "Swordsman" crew reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

"Jiang Feng, take a look at the look that Director Zhang Jizong personally designed for you. What do you think?"

He was wearing a coarse ancient costume and had long hair. He did not wear a crown, but instead had a bun similar to a ponytail on the middle and back of his head, with a few strands of fine hair left on both sides of his temples. It is said that this look was a little bit based on the Louis Koo version of Yang Guo.

Seeing this look through the mirror in the dressing room, Jiang Feng felt it was pretty good.

Previously, Zhang Da Huzi once said that our version of "Swordsman" tends to be realistic overall, and so are the costumes and props.

Therefore, many of the costumes and makeup of the characters in the play are mainly simple and realistic. The clothes of a few high-ranking and powerful characters will be more gorgeous, while the middle and lower levels will wear coarse linen or other ordinary clothes, and the lower class will even wear ragged and tattered clothes.

There is no other purpose, what stands out is the sense of gangsterism!

...

At 8: in the morning, Jiang Feng walked out of the dressing room. Although he was wearing coarse linen clothes, he had a handsome appearance, unrestrained manners, and his every move was free and easy like a young hero.

Even Zhang Da Huzi, who was secretly threatened by Jiang Feng last night, had to nod and admit when he saw Jiang Feng's appearance today that this was the Linghu Chong whose image and temperament were closest to the description in the original novel among the many actors he had auditioned.

Compared with Jiang Feng, Huang Lei is too elegant and refined, Li Yapeng is a bit dull and simple, Hu Jun is too rough and heroic, and Shao Bing and Zhou Jie are slightly inferior in appearance.

The key point is that Jiang Feng’s current fame and status are there, even if Zhang Da Huzi is unhappy, he has to go along with him.

What's even worse is that Jiang Feng doesn't look as harmless as he looks...

Jiang Feng looks good, and the heroine Xu Qing also looks good.

Her eyes are clear and lively, her face is fair and delicate, she has the heroic spirit of a cult saint, and the tenderness of a girl.

I have to say that among so many goddesses in the Beijing circle, Xu Qing is definitely the best in terms of appearance alone.

Today's Xu Qing is not as full of mature woman charm as in "Evil Does Not Suppress Justice", but at the same time she still has the smoothness of a young woman and the tenderness of a young girl, and can be said to be at the peak of her charm.

It is precisely because of this point that many fans of the original novel of "Swordsman" are dissatisfied.

On the one hand, this version of Ren Yingying has too many scenes and becomes a big sister. On the other hand, Xu Qing is too "old". Miss Ren is a pretty girl in the original novel. It's just that because of her rough experiences, her mind is more mature than her peers.

After the two leading actors Jiang Feng and Xu Qing finished their makeup and finalized their looks, the crew of "Swordsman" began the tentative filming. However, in the first scene of the crew, neither of them appeared.

The performers were Sun Haiying, who played Tian Boguang, and the other was Chen Lifeng, who played the junior sister Yi Lin in the play. Due to the plot requirements, she even had a bald hairstyle.

"TV series "Swordsman" Scene 1, 1st take, 1st time, ready..., go!"

Crowded streets with people coming and going.

The fruit vendors were shouting from a distance, "Fragrant pears, sweet fragrant pears, five cents a pound."

But after he shouted twice, the load the peddler was carrying was knocked to the ground.

"Hey, you..."

The injured peddler's complaint was immediately shut up as soon as he opened his mouth, because he suddenly saw a vicious man pulling a bald nun and running towards the front.

"Haha..., little nun, I will strip you naked in a moment and let you have fun on the street, haha..."

...

Although "Swordsman" is the first martial arts drama filmed by the national television station, the filming team is very mature. Many crew members have participated in the filming and production of "Water Margin" and even "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", so their cooperation is simply pleasing to the eye.

Sometimes, director Huang Jianzong just raised his hand, and the photographer immediately changed the close-up shot to a long shot; sometimes Huang Jianzong just snapped his fingers, and an extra who was drinking on the second floor of the tavern was kicked down from the upstairs by Sun Haiying who played Tian Boguang...

Standing on the outskirts of the filming site and seeing this scene, Jiang Feng secretly admired it. This was the result of the team's long-term running-in.

Jiang Feng was just expressing his feelings when Dawei, the assistant director who served him specifically, quietly came over here.

"Jiang Feng..."

"Ok?"

"There is something Director Kang asked me to tell you. Please make a note of it."

"Oh, okay, go ahead."

Just now, Jiang Feng had already read the shooting notice. He had two scenes to shoot this morning. One was the 4th scene, which would start at about 9:15; the other was the 7th scene, which would start at about 11:00. Therefore, he still had time to chat with the assistant director next to him.

"Well, let's put it this way."

The assistant director named Dawei organized his words a little and said:
"The crew structure of "Swordsman" is very similar to the model used by the national television station to shoot "Water Margin", which is divided into two crews, the literary drama crew and the martial arts crew.

Director Huang Jianzong is in charge of the literary scenes, while martial arts instructor Yuen Bin from Hong Kong Island is in charge of the martial arts scenes. There are some big scenes that require the two groups to shoot together.

The two groups of civil and military roles are further divided. The two directors mainly shoot the leading roles, while the remaining supporting roles are shot by assistants such as Director Kang, Director Zhao, and Director Guo.

Today is a test shoot, it doesn’t matter.

Starting from tomorrow, you and Xu Qing will start to take turns performing. You will go to the martial arts group and she will go to the literary group these days, and you will each play a major role.

Wait until the two of you perform rival scenes together again and then shoot them according to the division of civil and military scenes.

The advantage of this shooting mode is that it is fast and time-saving. The disadvantage is that the male and female protagonists are separated, making it difficult to develop tacit understanding, and when the actual shooting begins, it is difficult to guarantee the correct state.

so…"

Having said this, Dawei stopped and looked at Jiang Feng.

"Um…"

Jiang Feng was slightly stunned, then he smiled and said, "Brother Dawei, I understand. You mean that I should cultivate my relationship with Xu Qing in private, so that when the official filming begins, there will be no sense of unfamiliarity between us?"

"It's not me who asked you to develop feelings for Xu Qing, it's the crew." Dawei corrected Jiang Feng expressionlessly as he finished speaking.
