As we all know, humans are social animals.
This means that we have to participate in many group activities even if we don’t feel like it.
For example, we have morning exercises when we go to school, have reunions and visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, work on projects at work, etc.
Among them, filming is a very typical group work.
In order to present good shooting effects, the behind-the-scenes staff such as the director team and prop team need to work closely together, and the actors also need to work together.
If when filming, everyone can work hard to do what they should do and not cause trouble to others, even if the film is different from the ideal, the gap will not be too big.
As the core of a crew, director Wu Xi's work is undoubtedly the most important, and almost all tasks require her to be in the middle.
The first scene in the morning was originally to film Luo Xiaoou following his grandfather to attend a friend's birthday party.
The heroine is taken out by her grandfather for the first time. While making connections, she also has to endure the hidden contempt of others. During this period, various exciting plots are of great significance to character creation and plot advancement.
However, Ni Bingyan came early, put on makeup, changed into costumes and waited there, but Xu Bin waited and waited and didn't come, and didn't answer the phone.
The set has been set up, a large number of extras are in place, and everyone's makeup has been touched up three times.
He also claimed to be an old artist. He didn't have an assistant and couldn't contact anyone. He couldn't afford the delay, so he had to have someone make a special trip back to the hotel to call him!
Wu Xi is so angry!
Yesterday, I deliberately finished work early and was repeatedly told to rest early. Today, the start time was repeated several times!
It turned a deaf ear!
As soon as Xu Bin arrived on the set, he was scolded extremely viciously by Wu Xi:
"There are dozens of people waiting for you to start work! Xu! Please figure it out for me! It's not your turn to be a big star in this crew! You're quite old, and you're really getting better with each passing day! Even if it's your dad Mom, after decades of working in the industry, I have never made anyone wait like this! Let me tell you, if you don’t want to be filmed, get out of here! Whenever you get a role in the future, it will be because I, Wu, am not up to par with my character!"
After going back and forth, the shooting was originally scheduled to start at six o'clock, but in the blink of an eye it was eight o'clock.
If we can’t finish shooting today, we will have to shoot another day tomorrow.
Because when filming a banquet for a wealthy family, the venue must be luxurious, the makeup must be exquisite, and the appearance of the extras must be superior. Plus what they wear, Wu Xi made a calculation and was so angry that he just wanted to vomit blood!
Wu Xi is a rare and beautiful female director in the industry. She is famous for her good temper. Although she is venomous, she never targets her friends, so she is very popular.
If you offend her to death, if others want to use Xu Bin, they must consider whether they will offend her.
Xu Bin's role is clearly positioned there. A large number of people can play the roles he can play. He is not irreplaceable. If you put him and Wu Xi together and make a choice, any fool will know how to choose.
Maybe in order to please Wu Xi, he would even step on him.
Wu Xi is a very elegant and refined person. It is the first time Ni Bingyan has seen Wu Xi speak his mind and curse like this for so long.
Seeing that she was really angry, Xu Bin admitted his mistake with a good attitude even though he was holding back his anger.
For such an important scene, he was late. It was because he was wrong and no excuse could be used.
But admitting his mistake is one thing, but it doesn't mean that he won't do tricks behind his back.
In his opinion, all this was caused by Ni Bingyan. If he was scolded, Ni Bingyan would not be able to live well either!
How many dirty tricks does a professional veteran have?
Ni Bingyan has seen a lot before, but today she still found it eye-opening!
During the scene, Xu Bin turned his back to the camera and made faces at her from an angle that no one could see!
Ni Bingyan suddenly couldn't hold himself tight and acted out for a second.
"Luo Xiaoou, don't laugh! Come on, adjust and try again."
Ni Bingyan had always performed very well before, and with his reputation guaranteed, Wu Xi smiled for the first time without even scolding him.
But I can't stand Xu Bin's insidiousness, he keeps doing it again and again!
There were so many tricks, such as a crooked nose, a slanted mouth, and a roll of the eyes. As if he had just gotten used to it, he changed to another one and continued to toss.
Ni Bingyan knew that he was causing trouble and tried his best to ignore it, but in this way, the two characters in the play would lose emotional communication, and it would not look like that.
Wu Xi frowned more and more.
After being NGed four times, he directly called her by name: "Ni Bingyan, be more professional!"
Xu Bin's parents are movie kings and movie queens, and he has heard about it since he was a child. He has acting skills, but he has no luck in becoming famous and has always been tepid.
Now he is embarrassed. In everyone's eyes, he knows his mistakes and can correct them, and his performance was very good during filming. The mistakes are Ni Bingyan's.
Usually when filming, Wu Xi will call the actor by her name in the play. Calling her by her real name means that she is angry.
Unfortunately, there are no cameras here, so Ni Bingyan can't even try to prove his innocence.
In this kind of team work, once you encounter a pig teammate who is trying to hold you back, it is like getting pebbles in your shoes when walking, sand when eating, or dirt in your eyes...
It was uncomfortable everywhere, and Ni Bingyan could only swallow a mouthful of old blood.
Thinking about it, Xu Bin felt the same way last night, right?
Since he was in the first year of junior high school, he couldn't blame others for being in the fifteenth grade. Ni Bingyan had no choice but to think of ways to meet the director's requirements.
However, Wu Xi has always been strict with performances, and will stop if there is anything wrong.
After several times, not only the staff felt impetuous, but Ni Bingyan could not suppress the anger in her heart.
Seeing that she wasn't not serious, but just couldn't arouse her emotions, Wu Xi felt anxious and softened her words:
"Xiao Ni, although Lao Xu is late, he is filming seriously now, so don't be emotional! Let's work together to finish today's scene on time!"
This day's filming lasted until twelve o'clock in the evening, and finally ended.
When the work was over, Xu Bin raised his eyebrows and said: "Teacher Ni is really young and promising! We must continue to work hard tomorrow!"
Ni Bingyan was so angry that she wished she could stab him with a knife!
It is simply impossible to say something soft to him! He pretended not to hear anything, quickly packed up, and left the set with Duanmuli and Wang Biao.
After getting in the car, Ni Bingyan closed his eyes and leaned back.
Sometimes, I feel so tired that even King Juan can't bear it.
"I'll go back and take a rest later. I'll start work later tomorrow. Occasionally my performance isn't that good, that's normal. Director Wu is also anxious, so what he says will inevitably not be heard, so don't worry."
Work is always difficult and easy.
Don't smile crookedly because it's easy, or complain incessantly because it's difficult.
Wang Biao was afraid that she would be too tired from work, so he comforted her.
When Ni Bingyan heard this, he couldn't help but feel aggrieved.
It's okay for others to misunderstand her. The staff around her also misunderstood her because they didn't know the situation, which made her feel particularly uncomfortable.
"The guy named Xu kept making faces at me, or sticking out his tongue or rolling his eyes. I couldn't control my emotions well. It was unsubstantiated and I couldn't say anything."
As Ni Bingyan spoke, he sighed:
"Oh! Now that the movie is about to be filmed, and he is a second-generation actor, it is impossible to replace him. It's very frustrating, so I can only endure it."
Ni Bingyan saw clearly and planned to endure it.
She thought, Xu Bin couldn't do such dirty tricks every day, right?
Wang Biao smiled: "Don't worry, just leave it to me."
Seeing his relaxed expression, Ni Bingyan couldn't help but wonder: "This man is so shameless, how can you still fight him to the death?"
Wang Biao laughed: "That's not a big deal. Here, I'll show you something good."
