"Axing, don't be joking."
Dong Deng shook his head slightly and said, "I know you have some foundation, but this action is too dangerous, so let's leave it to a substitute."
During the [script study], Lin Xing suggested that he should complete the action scenes.
After all, "For Whom the Bell Tolls" didn't have many action scenes, and the few TV series Lin Xing filmed this year basically didn't have any action scenes.
To be honest, Lin Xing wanted to have a good time.
What's more, Lin Xing has martial arts skills, so he didn't think the two action scenes in "For Whom the Bell Tolls" were very dangerous.
For this reason, Lin Xing had already stated his position during the script reading. He believed that his role did not require a substitute at all.
But Dong Deng didn't really believe it at the time, or he wouldn't let Lin Xing take risks easily.
What is most important to a director?
That is the shooting schedule. If the shooting schedule is disrupted due to actor problems during the shooting, then the overall rhythm will be disrupted.
Why did the drama "For Whom the Bell Tolls" film its group scenes first? ?
On the one hand, it's because Dong Deng wanted to shoot a group scene to get the actors into the mood as quickly as possible. After all, group scenes can allow the actors to integrate into it as quickly as possible.
Another reason is that I am worried that other actors will have other problems, so I have to finish filming the group scenes first.
You must know that Liang Yi is the male lead in "For Whom the Bell Tolls". This is for external publicity, and this drama is originally about Liang Yi, but Lin Xing's role in the script is quite important.
So if something happens to Lin Xing because of his dangerous actions, if nothing else, the filming schedule will be directly delayed.
Only those who have filmed movies know how much money the crew will lose if they stop working for a day.
For this reason, the crew basically won't let the actors do dangerous actions. This aspect is a game. Some actors don't want to use stand-ins, but for safety reasons, they have to use them even if they don't need them.
Just like this time.
Originally, "For Whom the Bell Tolls" has been filming at the Magic City Film and Television Base. In order to film the group portraits as much as possible first, the crew was not divided into two groups AB this time.
That is to say, everyone got together to shoot, and the schedules of all the actors were coordinated in these few days to shoot the group scenes, which fully demonstrates Dong Deng's control.
If it were an ordinary director, it would not be ordinary to have so many big names in the crew to get everyone to cooperate.
But in the cast of "For Whom the Bell Tolls", almost all the actors are doing their best to cooperate, not only Liang Yi, Lin Xing, Wei Fei, Ren Shuai, but even the resourceful Galing Mei has no objections either.
The reason is very simple.
That is, everyone thinks that "For Whom the Bell Tolls" can be successful under the direction of Dong Deng, which is mainly determined by Dong Deng's status.
Just like when Zu Ming directed "The Wild Wave" before, Zu Ming was in absolute control of the crew.
What's more, if a director is not strong, he will often not be able to produce excellent works.
Of course, there are two sides to this. Just like Kong Yi from "Just Waiting for You", he is also quite strong. When filming "Just Waiting for You", he couldn't listen to any opinions.
And then, "Just Waiting for You" has both word-of-mouth and ratings. Except for Lin Xing who got the only bonus, Chu Chen, Li Jingjing and even Kong Yi are all about to have fun.
For Kong Yi, who has never failed, he didn't think it was his own problem when he failed in "Just Waiting for You". He thought it was the audience's problem.
Kong Yi even feels that the current audience is really not picky about food. They all only like things that the overbearing president has without marketing. In this case, Kong Yi thinks that he will just shoot this kind of thing.
That's why he wanted to film "Looking Up with Joy"
Kong Yi looked down on the audience, but at the same time he felt that since he was successful in one film, he would be very successful in the next one, so he made "Looking Up with Joy".
Of course, the TV series "Head Up with Joy" is also a big deal. Previously, this drama invited Ren Shuai to be the male lead, but Ren Shuai finally chose "For Whom the Bell Tolls".
All I can say is that we are all rushing together.
Not mentioning Kong Yi's side, let's just talk about Dong Deng now. He finally saw another side of Lin Xing.
Let’s not talk about dedication. After all, Dong Deng has long known about Lin Xing’s character from Zu Ming and Liu Zhou. This Lin Xing is completely different from some popular artists.
Lin Xing is very dedicated to filming.
But this is no longer just a matter of professionalism.
This Lin Xing is a bit crazy.
You don’t need a stunt double for filming. Do you think you are Wu Kun? ? ?
But even for Wu Kun, needless to say he lost his hands and feet during filming. He almost died several times.
But even so, Wu Kun still works hard when filming, challenging difficult moves again and again. In short, Wu Kun is well-known in the industry as a hard worker.
But Wu Kun originally had a martial arts background. He started out as a martial arts instructor, and then Wu Kun gradually started acting, and step by step he became the current actor.
Even though Wu Kun is 58 years old now, he is still active in the industry, but Wu Kun's era has passed.
Kung fu movies have long since died.
Many people at the same time as Wu Kun have also quit the industry, and some people can only act in some bad movies even if they don't quit the industry, so in comparison, Wu Kun is relatively lucky.
This is also due to the reputation Wu Kun has accumulated through filming films and television dramas for almost 30 years.
Wu Kun once said in an interview that as an actor, it is inevitable to make bad movies many times, but all he can do is to prevent his acting skills from being bad.
Therefore, Wu Kun's popularity in the circle is still very good. When artists in the same period fell behind one by one or even dropped out of the circle, Wu Kun not only did not become outdated, but on the contrary, he gradually transformed.
no way.
Firstly, Wu Kun's era is over. Secondly, Wu Kun is 58 years old after all, and he can no longer do many dangerous moves.
Now Wu Kun just likes acting.
For example, this time in "For Whom the Bell Tolls", Wu Kun made a temporary guest appearance, which is today's scene.
Wu Kun plays the traitor, and all Lin Xing has to do is kill him.
"Axing, I think Director Dong is right."
Wu Kun also advised from the side: "Don't look at how far you can jump over, but you have never done such an action before, so you will be easily injured..."
"Look, even Brother Kun said it."
Dong Deng also said: "Axing, I think you..."
"Director Dong, let me do it first, and you and Brother Kun will take a look first."
Lin Xing thought for a moment and said, "I've actually tried it, and it's no problem."
Dong Deng: “???”
