Chapter 163 The filming of "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog"

"Do you know you saved my life?"

"Saved your life?"

Cheng Hao's words made Qi Wei a little confused.

Qi Wei remembered that he had no interaction with the beautiful girl in front of him before.

I only heard Cheng Hao explain: "We took a long-distance bus to get here. On the way, we encountered a car bandit named Roadhog. I was really scared to death at that time. Fortunately, the leader of the car bandit was your fan and I learned that it was your movie."

, as long as I get your signed record, I will let us go, and this will save the day..."

Recalling the ferocity of those gangsters and road bullies, Cheng Hao still looked frightened.

"So that's it."

Qi Wei had heard his manager Wang Jinghua mention this before.

Qi Wei's film and television company invested a total of 3 million yuan in the movie "The Man and the Dog in the Mountain".

The money earned from "Party A and Party B" is used.

For such a small-budget literary film, an investment of 3 million is enough.

But it's just barely enough.

In order to spend money wisely on film production and to save costs, the crew took a train to Changsha and then took a long-distance bus to the Suining crew.

It’s very hard to go through all kinds of transfers and bumps.

It's hard work but also prone to danger.

After all, the current world is far from as peaceful as that of future generations.

Especially in remote areas, it is easy to encounter car thieves and road bullies who will block and rob you.

Cheng Hao and the others happened to encounter this incident on their way to the set.

This thing is said to be dangerous but actually it is not dangerous.

And it's not Qi Wei's reason why they were able to turn danger into safety.

Although they encountered road bullies armed with sharp weapons, there were only a few of them.

There are a total of more than 20 people in the crew including Cheng Hao and others.

There was an advantage in numbers, and when the other party learned that Cheng Hao and the others were here to shoot a movie, or Qi Wei's movie, they immediately gave up the idea of ​​robbery.

After all, Qi Wei is currently in the spotlight, and things related to Qi Wei can easily make headlines. If the robbery really makes the matter bigger, if it attracts the attention of relevant departments, it will be very detrimental to their "sustainable development".

Although cameras and other things were not popular at this time, and it was very difficult to catch these car gangsters and road bullies, for the relevant departments, efficiency is only related to whether they pay attention to it or not.

Qi Wei followed Cheng Hao's words and said: "This is really dangerous! But I don't like fans who break the law like this."

"Then what kind of fans do you like?" Cheng Hao asked with a smile.

When she smiles, her two beautiful eyes are like crescent moons, as if she is also smiling, which is very beautiful.

It always makes people unable to help but take a second look.

"For example, I like beautiful girls like you. I wonder if you like my music?" Qi Wei asked with a smile.

"I quite like it."

She muttered something silently in her mind, and looked like she was thinking on the surface, but her eyes were peeking from time to time.

"Would you be angry if I said I didn't like your music?" she asked carefully.

"No, I'm not that narrow-minded and respect everyone's preferences. But without beautiful fans like you, I will be depressed and disappointed."

The tone was quite serious, which made Cheng Hao stunned for a moment. She looked at Qi Wei's handsome face, and a charming blush gradually appeared on her face.

It complements her delicate fair and rosy skin, which is so tender and tender, so pretty.

"I don't know what kind of music you like. Maybe you can give me inspiration to make the music you like."

"Actually, I like your music very much. I have bought every record of yours. If you don't believe me, check it out."

As she spoke, she took out Qi Wei's album from her bag.

Every album released by Qi Wei is included.

Qi Wei picked up the record and looked at it for a while, then asked with a smile: "You are not doing this to compliment me on the record I bought temporarily."

"Of course not. I went to the video store to buy your record as soon as it was released on the first day."

"Then why is it that among your three albums, only my new album is genuine?"

"What? You mean these two records of mine are pirated?"

"Of course, you see, there are no anti-counterfeiting marks on these two records." Qi Wei pointed at the records and said.

"I bought them at the Wangjingfu audio and video store. No wonder the boss was willing to give a discount. I was sold pirated copies. Damn it, two records cost me sixty yuan." Cheng Hao said angrily, looking at Qi Wei, revealing

He looked embarrassed but smiled.

"Okay, don't let this affect our good mood. I believe you like my music." Qi Wei comforted.

Then he added: "Now that we are familiar with each other, when I release an album in the future, I will send you a record so that you will not be cheated by those profiteers again."

"How can this be so embarrassing?"

"This is the way I treat my friends. If you are willing to treat me as a friend, I hope you can accept my kindness."

"Of course, I would like to be your friend."

At this moment, she noticed that Qi Wei's eyes had never left her since the beginning of the chat, and he had been looking at her with admiration and a little unscrupulously.

She touched her face shyly and asked softly: "Is there something on my face? You are looking at me like this."

"Because you are beautiful. I can't help but take a second look at beautiful things. I'm sorry if it offended you."

"It's okay." Qi Wei's words were very helpful to her, and the teasing words made her feel a little confused.

I only heard Qi Wei say again: "To be honest, when Director Huo recommended you to play this Dong girl to me at first, I was not very satisfied because my company signed some actresses and they also needed resources, but he showed me

I have no objection after seeing your photo, do you know why?”

"Why?" she asked without thinking.

"Because you are very beautiful, and you are even more beautiful in real life than in the photos. Just like when I met you in this drama, I felt a heartbeat when we first met."

Cheng Hao was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Qi Wei with a spring-like smile on his face, and his heartbeat was beating fast.

She quickly realized what was happening. She was so shy that she lowered her head and did not dare to look at Qi Wei, letting the blush on her face reach to her ears.

He replied with a few words in a whisper like a mosquito.

"Me too."

The voice was so small that Qi Wei didn't hear it clearly.

"I look forward to cooperating with you." Qi Wei continued.

"Me too."

She said loudly, and Qi Wei could hear her clearly this time.

Qi Wei nodded with a smile.

For Qi Wei, who is good at time management, teasing Cheng Cheng to have a good impression of him when they first meet is as simple as eating and drinking.

Qi Wei has a certain fondness for her, but it is more of a curiosity.

I am also happy to see more intimate things happen in the future.

But for Qi Wei, who had just experienced the Shura field, he was no longer willing to invest any emotions in other women.

Mental communication is not as good as physical communication, just think of it as a relief from the boring life.

Why add anything else?

Just let nature take its course.

After finishing chatting with Cheng Hao and saying hello to director Huo Jianqi and others, Qi Wei returned to his RV and began to delve into the script of "That Mountain That Man That Dog".

Although the script of the movie "That Man, That Mountain, That Dog" has been revised several times for refinement, it is basically consistent with the story of the novel.

It tells the story of a son who succeeded his retired father as a rural postman, and the father accompanied his son to deliver letters together for the first time.

In the 1980s, when domestic information was limited and telephones were not yet popular, people living in the mountains still used the oldest method to communicate with the outside world, which required rural postmen to travel across the mountains to deliver letters.

The sealed one is sent in and then sent out.

Being a rural postal worker is a very hard job, requiring you to carry parcels, climb mountains and wade through rivers, and deliver letters along the postal route.

The postal route in the script is 223 miles in total, with an average of 80 miles traveled every day, taking exactly three days to go back and forth.

The entire story of the movie lies in these three days' journey.

In the movie, because the father shoulders the burden of the family and is busy running mail all year round, he rarely sees his son and has little understanding of the child's growth process.

Therefore, in his son's memory, his mother is the person closest to him, and he will always feel strange to his father.

Although the two knew that they should have a very close father-son relationship with each other, they never showed any closeness.

Reserved and restrained, this is a very common father-son relationship in the East. If the movie can truly present it, the movie will be half successful.

I have to say here that Huo Jianqi chose the director well. At this time, director Huo Jianqi was in middle age. He is both a father and a son, so he can especially understand the feelings of father and son in the movie.

But for Qi Wei, this is somewhat difficult.

In both lives, Qi Wei has never experienced this kind of father-son relationship, whether in his previous life or this life.

Without personal experience, I can only rely on my own understanding.

But luckily I have a reference.

Later Qi Wei saw this movie more than once.

Later this movie was the screen debut of Liu Huohua from the 96th class of the Chinese Opera next door.

It's his first play.

For this drama, he was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actor.

Although the Golden Rooster Award was not very influential at this time, it was not as influential as in later generations.

He was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actor, which is an affirmation of his performance in the film.

In this movie, Liu Huohua's performance is not the most perfect, but it is definitely excellent.

Qi Wei can learn from him.

Liu Huohua and Qi Wei have met before, at the premiere of "Love in the Internet Age".

In Hu Jing's first scene in this drama, he went to cheer for Hu Jing.

At the premiere of "Love in the Internet Age", Qi Wei and Liu Huohua exchanged polite greetings.

I also had a preliminary impression of him.

How should I put it? He looks carefree, but in fact he is not good at expressing himself.

He wanted to get close to Qi Wei, but he always stammered.

He is a very young boy.

It is very similar to the "son" character he played in the later "The Mountain, That Man, That Dog".

"It seems like he is acting in his true colors."

It seems that there is a reason why director Huo Jianqi caught his eye when he was playing basketball on the playground in later generations.

If you are acting in your true colors, you don’t need to have high acting skills.

If there are traces of performance, it can easily become self-defeating.

In the movie "The Mountain That Man That Dog", Liu Huohua's performance was wonderful, but in fact, in Qi Wei's view, his acting skills were still very immature and immature.

You know, Liu Huohua and Zhang Ziyi are famous crane tailgaters in Class 96 next door.

Their acting skills are definitely the worst in their class.

Unlike Zhang Ziyi who met Lao Mouzi while filming "My Father and Mother", Liu Huohua met director Huo Jianqi who was actually not good at training actors.

It depends more on the actors' own performance.

What's more, in order to film "My Father and Mother", Zhang Ziyi first went to the countryside to experience rural life for several months, and then filmed for several months, which took nearly half a year.

As for "The Mountain, That Man, That Dog," this is a low-budget film that emphasizes quick results. There is no time for the actors to experience the role for several months.

It only took Liu Huohua a total of two months to shoot this movie.

In terms of time and experience, Liu Huohua is far inferior to Zhang Ziyi.

Therefore, the improvement in acting skills is not as obvious as that of Zhang Ziyi, which is also reflected in these two movies.

In this movie, it is also a learning process for my son.

Learn to be a rural postman, learn how to understand love for your father.

This is a process that seems to be unclear.

"Perhaps, for the role of son, what Director Huo needs is the actor's young acting skills."

The more Qi Wei thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.

Qi Wei's acting skills are still young, but Qi Wei, who has just finished filming "Never Rest Eyes" and has already filmed several movies, has just lost his youthfulness.

It will take some time to get back the green feeling of filming for the first time.

On the second day after joining the group, Qi Wei participated in the filming.

It will take some time for Qi Wei, who is still regaining his youthful feelings, to adapt, and the shooting results are not so satisfactory.

This also made Director Huo Jianqi frown.

"Teacher Teng's performance is outstanding. You have many scenes with him, so you can ask him for advice." Although director Huo Jianqi is not good at training actors, he pointed the direction for Qi Wei.

Let Qi Wei ask Teacher Teng Rujun, who plays the father in this play, for advice.

In this film, Teng Rujun's performance was perfect, and his emotional handling was just right. Later, he won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor with this film.

At the same time, he is also a teacher of Chinese opera and has his own way of teaching students.

When Qi Wei humbly asked him for advice, he was silent for a while and then made a request to Qi Wei.

"I can teach you, but you have to stay far away from Cheng."

"What?"

Qi Wei was a little confused by his request.

"For some reason, you and I know in our hearts that you are not a good home for a good girl. Cheng Hao is not very experienced in the world and cannot understand many things, nor can she cope with your tricks on girls. I am a good friend of her father, and I invited her

When she entered the Chinese drama, I promised her father that I would take care of her and protect her. You should stay away from her..."

The previous one has not been modified yet.
