Chen Mo didn't keep anyone in suspense.

"Brother Jun plays the laundromat owner, and Brother Si plays Liang Zhijun."

Tang Jianjun and Nicholas Zhao Si jumped up excitedly.

The latter almost activated the passive skill of the Asian Dance King.

"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Junior Brother."

The two said in unison.

As for the other minor roles, Chen Mo assigned them to his senior brothers and sisters who were in financial difficulty.

Projects owned by one's own company cannot generate significant profits.

But the master wouldn't treat everyone unfairly; they would earn more than performing on a big stage.

……

……

The next day, the male and female protagonists arrived at the Benshan Media Base, looking travel-worn.

The contract was signed with exceptional speed and efficiency.

Liao Fan's film fee was 100 million.

Normally it would be 60 to 80, but "Let the Bullets Fly" hasn't started filming yet, so its price isn't high.

As for Yu Nan, a top star in art films.

2009 was the peak of my career.

It could also be said that he reached his peak right from his debut.

In 1999, she won the Best Actress award at the Deauville Asian Film Festival in France for her role in "Eclipse".

She won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress for her role in "Awakening of Insects" in 2003

In 2006, he starred in "The Story of Yatu," which won the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival.

Although she was not made empress, the portrayal of Tuya, a Mongolian woman, was not superficial but deeply profound.

The normal fee is 150 million yuan, but Zhao Benshan generously raised it to 200 million yuan.

They all have acting commitments, so it's a favor that they come over immediately after receiving the call.

Teacher Zhao never fails to do things properly.

This also increased the total budget from 1000 million to 1200 million.

Two days later.

Ice City.

Winter is drawing to a close.

We need to film the scenes on the wild ice rink first, as the Songhua River is about to thaw.

Because of the tight schedule, there was no press conference or opening ceremony.

Keep everything simple.

"Scene 1, shot 1, first time."

"start!"

Zhang Huizhong gave the order.

Yu Nan skating ahead, Liao Fan chasing behind.

on the screen.

The lights are getting fewer and fewer, and the scene is getting darker and darker.

This foreshadows something big that is about to happen.

Both actors are highly skilled, perfectly portraying the shrewdness of a policeman and the feigned indifference of a woman.

The two fell into a snowdrift.

Yu Nan's expressive eyes are key.

Keep your eyes on Liao Fan, and when he gets close, glance to the other side.

This isn't about hiding, but rather a subtle reminder to the audience that danger is just around the corner.

Liao Fan had made up his mind, and the two lightly touched lips.

Song Xiaobao plays Xiao Wang in the painting.

"I haven't returned the ice skates yet!"

The first shot was completed smoothly.

"Director, what do you think?"

Zhang Huizhong sought opinions.

Liao Fan and Yu Nan ran over, waiting for Chen Mo to speak.

No one dares to underestimate this top celebrity who became an overnight sensation.

She's only 18 years old.

Then you can write screenplays and make movies.

While connections are important, talent is also undeniable.

Both of them read the script for "Black Coal, Thin Ice" very carefully.

Two words: I admire you!

"No problem, it's a pass! Sister Nan and Brother Fan are both very talented, and they portrayed this scene very well, just like I imagined."

Chen Mo gave it extremely high praise.

"call…"

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought Chen Mo was trying to establish his authority and make things difficult for the two veterans in the industry.

"Don't worry, everyone. I won't do the usual 'new broom sweeps clean' stuff. You guys film normally and I'll just go about my business normally. Of course, we can't slack off or cheat. The company is taking this film very seriously and is preparing to compete in Cannes."

Chen Mo reminded him.

"Understood, Director."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Yu Nan stared at the handsome young man behind the monitor, thinking to herself that he was precocious despite his young age.

He actually knew what she was thinking.

And to treat the symptoms.

Then they used Benshan Media to intimidate them, and then used Cannes as a rein to keep them in check.

Benshan Media will not tolerate any underhanded tactics.

If you want to go to the Cannes Film Festival, then you'll have to work your ass off.

A slap followed by a sweet treat—that's not like something an 18-year-old would do.

After filming the scenes at the ice rink, the crew moved to Rongrong's Laundry Shop.

The script for "Black Coal, Thin Ice" is very mature, the character biographies are detailed, and the storyboard is like a work of art.

Professional actors can usually get it right in one take.

One shot can be filmed a maximum of three times.

The progress is very fast.

"Director, have an orange. The production manager went to order some late-night snacks. What time do we wrap up tonight?"

Ma Lijuan asked softly.

Chen Mo held the script in his hand and casually bit an orange with his mouth. "We'll be filming until late at night. After these night scenes are finished, I can sleep in tomorrow."

"I've also been to the sets of 'Ma Dashuai' and 'Liu Laogen'. They film very slowly, taking three or four days to refine a single scene, and the results weren't as good as what Xiao Mo filmed."

Ma Lijuan didn't want to dampen Xiao Mo's morale and diminish Lao Zhao's prestige.

But the facts speak for themselves.

Xiao Mo is a newcomer, but he is quick and professional.

"My masters don't really read the script; they mainly improvise. Sometimes, a flash of inspiration is what makes a classic. Mine is completely formulaic; everything is done according to the script, so of course it's faster," Chen Mo explained, then added, "Master's wife, this orange is sweet. Peel another one for me."

"Okay, my Xiao Mo has loved sweets since she was little."

Ma Lijuan happily peeled the orange.

Then, quite naturally, it was fed into Chen Mo's mouth.

Song Xiaobao, Tang Jianjun, and the others, who were not far away, looked on with envy.

"I can't compare, I can't compare. We're both apprentices, but they treat me like their own son!" Song Xiaobao grumbled, then added, "Master's wife, this orange is sweet, peel another one for me."

That tiny movement was so tight it couldn't be tighter.

"Pfft..." Zhao Si's mouth twitched with laughter. "If you had Junior Brother's talent, you could also get Master's wife to peel oranges for you."

"Forget it, I'd be lucky to win an Best Actor award in my lifetime, let alone dream of writing screenplays and directing."

"Song Xiaobao, you're absolutely disgusting."

……

……

Time flies like an arrow; half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Chen Mo films during the day and edits videos at night.

So busy I was practically running around like crazy.

The filming schedule was commensurate with his efforts.

of course.

All of this is based on Benshan Media's strong logistical support capabilities.

During the filming of the scene where Yu Nan is arrested and Liao Fan sets off fireworks.

They could never meet Chen Mo's requirements.

The fireworks during the day weren't dazzling; they weren't even visible on the security cameras.

And this scene is crucial.

Closely related to the theme of "Black Coal, Thin Ice".

Finally, Zhang Jiahao flew to Liuyang, Hunan Province, the hometown of fireworks, to buy daytime fireworks.

Chen Mo nodded in satisfaction.

Today's filming schedule is for the scene of "Liao the Dance King" dancing in the dance hall.

The final scene in Ice City.

After filming wrapped, the crew went to Guangdong Province to shoot summer scenes.

The location liaison has found a filming location; the barbershop is a 1:1 replica of Harbin.

"Brother Fan, listen to the background music first and get a feel for it."

Chen Mo did not use the song "Yearning" from the original drama.

Instead, it was "Mohe Dance Hall," which later became a hit on short video platforms.

This song is accompanied by Liao Wuwang's captivating dance moves.

Its value speaks for itself.

"Click!"

Chen Mo pressed the play button on the radio.

"If you have time, you'll come and see me, won't you?"

"Watch as the snow ages, and my eyes melt away."

A depressing, even somewhat melancholic, song began to play.

There was no accompaniment and no technical virtuosity.

There was only one man, calling from the depths of his soul.

Half a minute later.

A somber, nostalgic accompaniment begins.

This makes the singing more story-telling.

Liao Fan, with a cigarette between his fingers, bent over uncontrollably, his steps swaying back and forth in rhythm.

now.

He was not Liao Fan, but Zhang Zili.

A down-on-his-luck middle-aged man whose spine has been completely bent by reality.

He was smoking and looked unkempt.

The hand is shaped like a pistol, and the final expression is a reminiscence of a former profession and a fantasized revenge against those in power.

This most primitive, instinctive, and pure dance is both unrestrained and tinged with desolation and confusion.

And not far away at this moment.

Another Asian dance king suddenly had his genes loosen.
