The first scene of "Misborn" is very simple. It is Chi Jingyuan walking to the other side of the road, looking around and making an expression that he is unfamiliar here for the first time. After that, the phone rang and was connected. Zhao who called from Where did the agent get the news that Xu Jinshang was hiding in a Cairo hotel.
But after all, after such a long time, Chi Jingyuan seemed a little rusty during the two shootings, and it got stuck two or three times in a row.
However, he quickly regained the feeling of filming, and got into the mood amidst the surprised eyes of the surrounding crew members, and shot several scenes in one go.
Most of the crew's first few scenes were shot several times due to various reasons, and there were even more than a dozen shots that didn't go smoothly. For example, the actors didn't find the feeling, or the director felt that the taste was not right and wanted to polish it again. Category.
The members of the crew of "Misborn" have also filmed many TV series and are experienced experts in the industry. They had already prepared for a rough start, but they didn't expect that they would be fucked by the continuous "ng" before they started. Despite his impatience, Chi Jingyuan actually entered the shooting state so quickly, and his acting was indeed very good. Kim Won-seok's squinting eyes and smile on his face can prove this very well.
After filming the first few scenes, Jin Yuanxi pulled Chi Jingyuan and several actors to start talking about the following scenes, while some familiar crew members gathered around to whisper and look at each other from time to time. Take a look over there.
"I didn't expect it. I'm really quite good at it."
"I had only heard that this kid had a great background, and I thought it was just an exaggeration. I didn't expect that he actually performed well."
"Chi Jingyuan's acting skills are originally very good. Otherwise, even if he has deep connections, the crew members who have worked with him would not have such a good opinion of him..."
"Haven't you seen "The Heirs"? The one played by Jin Tan, tsk tsk, my wife went crazy watching the show during that time..."
There are still many rumors about Chi Kyung-won in the TV drama circle, such as being very well-connected, stealing roles, having privileged treatment in the crew, Kim Eun-sook liking him very much, etc.
In addition to last year's widely rumored incident of ousting Lee Min Ho for a role, rumors about his background also leaked from time to time during the filming, including private rumors from some "The Heirs" crew members, such as when he was filming in LA. The shocking and unconfirmed rumors that the luxurious and eye-popping villa at that time was Chi Jingyuan's own home filled him with a lot of topics.
At the same time, he is now the only representative actor of the entire peninsula's young generation who also works as an idol. He seems a bit out of place among the other young actors with orthodox backgrounds. Moreover, Chi Jingyuan can be said to be the best developed among them. one.
For these reasons, some vague prejudices and curiosity will follow him from time to time.
For example, many members of the crew of "Misborn" have this situation, but after watching Chi Jingyuan's filming for a while, I couldn't help but feel a little impressed.
No matter what the rumors are or what the background is, the acting skills that are immediately eye-catching cannot be faked. It is no wonder that N, who has worked with Ji Kyung-won before, rejected Im Si-wan at the production meeting and strongly suggested Let Chi Jingyuan play the male lead Zhang Keli.
After all, they have already met once, and the great success of the collaboration in "Reply 1997" gave Chi Jingyuan N a good reputation and impression.
After the first few scenes were filmed, the most important chase scene was filmed in Jordan.
The plot is that Zhang Keli and Agent Zhao came to the Cairo Hotel to look for Xu Jinshang. They checked that there was no one in the room and thought he had run away. When they were disappointed, Xu Jinshang happened to come back from outside and met the two of them. After being stunned for two seconds, Xu Jin ran away, and the two of them quickly chased after him.
Agent Zhao accidentally fell down when he came up. Zhang Keli chased Xu Jin all the way up the busy old streets of Amman. He hit several pedestrians on the road. Zhang Keli was braked while chasing across the road. The car that couldn't catch up was hit and flew a few meters, and he fainted on the ground for a few seconds before getting up again.
After that, they chased up the stairs to the roof. The two of them escaped and chased each other, even directly crossing a distance of two meters, jumping directly from the roof to the opposite side.
In the open window of another building next door.
Chi Jingyuan was simply stunned when he saw the description and split shots of this exciting chase and escape scene. If he hadn't been told in advance that this was the script of "Misborn", he would have thought it was a scene from a movie made by Jkie Cheng. .
"This chase and escape scene was not shot to the end. We shot it segment by segment. It started from the Cairo Hotel and ended here." Jin Yuanxi pointed to a location in front of him, walked over and drew with his fingers: "This scene A section, and then from here to the other side of the road..."
"Where's the substitute?" He said, turning to the attendant next to him and asking.
"Over here, over here." The stage manager pulled a stuntman over. He was in his twenties. Except for his appearance, which was quite different from Chi Jingyuan's, the rest of his suits and clothing had been dressed up to match his. Exactly the same.
Jin Yuanxi looked back and forth between the stuntman and Chi Jingyuan and nodded with satisfaction after finding that there were no flaws in their outfits: "The scenes of the car crash and jumping off the building were shot by the stuntman without frontal shots. Jingyuan, just rush to the road from here." ..."
The director described the specific process of this scene in detail. After that, several actors tried the route several times. After becoming familiar with it, they started filming again.
This kind of chasing scene is the most tiring to shoot. Although it is shot in segments and Chi Jingyuan does not have to do the dangerous scenes himself, it still requires running with all his strength every time. If there is any problem, he needs to start over and run again.
Although Chi Jingyuan looks good when running in this outfit, the suit is unbuttoned, and the clothes on both sides swing back and forth in a standard running posture. Combined with his strong posture and serious expression, he looks really good. There is a chic feeling.
But running in leather shoes is really tiring.
Moreover, the relationship between the chase scene and acting skills is not very big. It mainly depends on the cooperation between the actors and the crew.
The car crash scene also surprised Chi Jingyuan. The stuntman who played him was hit by an oncoming car and rolled back and forth on the ground several times. He was able to stand up immediately without any problems. It looked really good. Very professional.
The chase and escape scene was filmed all afternoon. The actors and crew shot it repeatedly. They were too tired to breathe and couldn't run. They took a break for a while, and then continued quickly.
Because this scene needs to be shot during the day and cannot be shot at night, the crew switched to shooting indoor scenes after the sun went down.
It wasn't until almost early in the evening that the crew got off work and returned to the hotel together.
"I heard from the staff who came over here that the security here is actually not very good. Things often happen, especially for outsiders... It's best not to go out unless something goes wrong."
After returning to the hotel, Park Jae-hyun gave Chi Jingyuan instructions.
The crew reserved a room for Chi Kyung-won and Park Jae-hyun, and two SM assistants were next door.
"I feel so too."
Chi Jingyuan nodded and stood in front of the window looking at the night scene outside.
The night view here is much worse than in Seoul, but the exotic architectural style and local snacks are really attractive to him. But he is here for filming, so it is best to be honest and avoid any accidents.
After looking at the scenery for a while, I felt a little bored again. After thinking about it, Chi Jingyuan was going to send a message to chat with a friend, like Zhou Ziyu, and send her a few distinctive photos he took during the day. The photo opened her eyes.
It seems that Bae Zhuhyun and the others' mobile phones have been controlled by their managers recently. Chi Jingyuan has not been in contact with each other for several days.
The last time he and Zhou Ziyu chatted, they had to go to bed at the end and were too lazy to reply to each other. However, Zhou Ziyu probably wouldn't be angry because of his personality, and he was used to it anyway.
Just as he took out his phone, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked, "What's the time difference between here and Seoul?"
"About five hours."
"Forget it, I guess everyone over there is getting up soon." After trying hard to speak, Chi Jingyuan gave up the idea. After pondering for two seconds, he decided to rest early.
Tomorrow
I had to get up early in the morning to continue working, and I was really exhausted from running back and forth this afternoon, and almost half my life was gone.
The next day, I was busy until the afternoon. I finally filmed the chase and escape scene at the end of the building.
Ut! "
After shouting to stop filming, Jin Yuanxi frowned and shouted in annoyance: "What's wrong with the aerial camera? Can you take a better picture? It's a few shots too slow, do you know?"
The employee operating the aerial camera next to him was sweating and nodded quickly.
In addition to the cameramen following the filming of this rooftop plot, there are many shots that require the use of professional film aerial cameras to show Zhang Keli's persistence and the intensity of the chase from various perspectives.
Then Kim Won-seok shouted again, "Go and check the safety measures when jumping off the building. Make sure there are no accidents."
"Nei, Arathor."
After Chi Jingyuan and several actors rested and adjusted, they started shooting again.
He followed Xu Jin and rushed out from the stairs on the top floor. Slide rails had been set up around the top floor. The three cameras above were filming him from all directions. At the same time, the aerial camera taking off also shot from above at an oblique angle in mid-air. Looking down at the back of Chi Jingyuan.
This part has been filmed several times. Chi Jingyuan ran forward with ease, his pure black suit floating behind him like a cloak.
According to the script, he ran for a while and then came to a stop in front of the steps. Looking at Xu Jinshang who was still running in front of him, he took a breath and was about to continue chasing after him. Suddenly he heard a scream and uproar coming from beside him.
It was obvious that something went wrong. Even if the director didn't shout "stuck" in the filming location where the sound was being collected, the filming would definitely not go on.
Chi Jingyuan turned his head and looked at the place where the commotion came from. The people in the crew in the middle looked at him in panic. Before he could figure out what was going on, a black thing fell straight towards him from above. When he came down, he obviously made a sharp turn when he was about to approach him, avoiding Chi Jingyuan and hitting the ground about one meter to his left.
The crisp sound of "bang" really startled Chi Jingyuan. He took a step back reflexively, panting and looking at the object falling from the sky. He recognized it at a glance as the crew's aerial camera.
"Is Jingyuan okay?"
Park Jae-hyun and his two assistants rushed over with nervous expressions on their faces. They seemed to be more frightened than Chi Jingyuan himself. They walked around for a while and found that there was nothing wrong before heaving a sigh of relief.
Following them, Jin Yuanxi and several crew members also ran over. They were relieved after seeing that they were not hit.
"Axi, what happened? Why did the aerial camera suddenly fall down? How did you control it? Did you not want to do it anymore? If you hit someone, can you bear the responsibility?"
After seeing that Chi Jingyuan was fine, Jin Yuanxi started to reprimand the staff who controlled the aerial camera loudly like a firecracker.
He must also be very angry. After all, if the actor is not hit by the falling aerial camera, although the height is not very high and he will suffer serious injuries, it will definitely affect the shooting situation in Jordan.
In addition, many of them were done to show off to Chi Kyung-won and SM. This kind of episode was obviously a mistake by the crew, and the attitude must be shown regardless of whether he was injured or not.
When this kind of problem occurs, the filming must be suspended. After Park Jae-hyun angrily expressed his dissatisfaction, Kim Won-seok was furious at the person responsible, while Chi Kyung-won was sitting on a chair drinking water and resting, but his mood was not affected at all. He was except for being scared. It was nothing beyond a jump, and in the end he saw that the aerial camera was controlled to move to the side when it was about to land. It was obvious that the controller took the initiative to control it in the face of danger.
After a while, the cause was found out. It was that the aerial camera malfunctioned and it suddenly fell. When it was close to Chi Jingyuan, it was controlled by the staff and fell somewhere else.
The planning of the drama "Misheng" is very complete. VJs were responsible for filming the behind-the-scenes of all the filming processes from beginning to end. All the unexpected processes were recorded by the VJs who were responsible for filming the behind-the-scenes.
Because it didn’t really come out
Chi Jingyuan had no intention of pursuing the matter. After a series of reprimands and apologies, this unexpected episode was over.
It is quite common for the crew to encounter such minor accidents during filming. Chi Jingyuan encountered it several times during the filming of "Reply" or "The Heirs". Because of the small accident during the episode, I've done it before, so I'm used to it.
Next came another tense shooting session. After the accident, the entire crew suddenly cheered up and their efficiency seemed to have become much faster.
In the following days, due to the serious work of the crew and actors, all the filming tasks were completed earlier than the original plan. The filming in Jordan was completed in three or less than four days.
The crew also got on a plane to Bangkok on the 25th, preparing to return to the peninsula after a connecting flight.
…………
While Chi Jingyuan was working intensely there, others were not idle either. Redvelvet, who had debuted for less than a month, was working diligently to record every singing stage every week, even if his singing performance was very poor and he was one of the candidates. They are all far behind. Every time they stand in front of the last row when the award ceremony is held, the camera cannot capture them.
Because the singing program is one of the few programs where they can appear on TV.
Since their debut, redvelvet has not been low-profile on the Internet. On the contrary, it can be said that the popularity is quite high, but 90% of them are criticizing them.
Contrary to their popularity, they have very few announcements. They have very few variety shows. They have only recorded a few radio shows since their debut. They can't even appear in any popular variety shows. Even if they go to ordinary small variety shows, they only have a background board exposed. The face is completely meaningless.
There were not even a few commercial performances due to various reasons. At this time, their status was a bit like EXO who was put in cold storage not long after their debut. The members spent a lot of time picking their feet in the dormitory and practice room. After their debut, they were like It’s like he didn’t debut.
However, Ledbeibei was even worse. At least at that time, XO commercial performances were able to receive some, and Chi Jingyuan was still filming commercials to continue to provide exposure.
So now they are left to play songs.
A few people went to work today to prepare for the recording of the music center. It was not their rehearsal time yet. Bae Zhuhyun and Jiang Seulqi did not stay in the lounge, but stood by the window of the stairwell and were talking.
At this time, the two of them had already put on their stage clothes. One had pink hair, the other had yellow hair, and their hair tails were dyed. They looked like sisters standing together with identical makeup.
"Oh, I haven't contacted Jingyuan for a long time. I don't know how the filming of his TV series is going. He went to Jordan for filming, right? I have never been to a country in the Middle East."
Leaning against the wall, Jiang Seulqi looked up the stairs and mentioned Chi Jingyuan while chatting.
"She should be back soon." Pei Zhuxuan pursed her lips and replied, then hesitated and continued: "It was out of kindness that Hye Young Unni didn't let us use the mobile phone. After all, the Internet is now..."
Pei Zhuhyun was quite happy for Chi Jingyuan when she found out that he was filming again as the male lead. But for some reason, after seeing the heated discussion on the Internet and Chi Jingyuan's popularity and popularity, she felt a faint feeling in her heart. There was a very inexplicable awkward feeling.
Just like what she once said in a message from an XO fan by chance, the two people seemed to be in different worlds.
She couldn't explain why. She had never felt this way before before her debut.
Pei Zhuhyun didn't finish speaking, but both of them must have understood in their hearts.
It's just that now the Internet is full of people criticizing them. Most of them are fans of the seniors of SM, Girls' Generation, fx, EXO and so on. Even because the trend has become popular, even passers-by who don't know them want to follow the trend and make some comments. , otherwise it seems like not keeping up with the trend.
As long as you open the forum, you will always see these messages and negative comments. In this case, even Kang Seulgi and Son Seungwan, who have good tempers and mentality, are very angry and sad, not to mention Bae Zhuhyun and Park Sooyoung. Already.
One is the captain and the oldest member who likes to hold back
In my mind, I am competing with myself. The other one is younger and has a little more temper.
In the past few days, the agent no longer often gave them mobile phones to use at night as he did some time ago. During this period, the mobile phones were always under control and would only be given to them for use every few days.
The two of them became somewhat silent when talking about this.
Before their debut, they secretly thought about how they would feel if the group became popular, what kind of smile they should use to face fans, and they secretly practiced several signatures in private.
But no one expected that the debut that they had been looking forward to for so many years would actually turn out to be like this after it came true.
The gap between dreams and reality is really unbearable, full of cruelty and coldness, and even a bit of black humor.
The two of them thought about things quietly for a while. Bae Zhuhyun walked to the window and looked outside casually. Suddenly, she was stunned, stopped there and looked over with some hesitation, and after a few seconds, she said to Jiang Seulqi uncertainly. : "Look over there, they seem to be our fans."
"How is it possible? Where do we have fans now..." Although Jiang Seulqi mocked herself and denied it, she still walked to the window and looked over with her.
The two of them held the window open, looking at the fans lingering outside with anticipation and worry.
There were a few fans over there who seemed to have noticed the two of them a long time ago. They were waving their arms towards them enthusiastically, and their mouths were still moving as if they were saying something.
"It seems to be true." Pei Zhuxuan showed a faint smile. After saying this, he waved tentatively to the other side. He found that the few fans became more excited after seeing it and jumped towards the two people at redvelvet. They were waving their arms happily, and their screams could be heard even from a long distance away. They were obviously their fans.
"We actually have fans..."
The two looked at each other with a smile. Although they didn't speak, they could see the meaning of each other's eyes.
A sense of warmth and surprise emerged from their hearts. The two of them, who had been quite disappointed just now, started laughing happily and kept saying hello happily to their rare group of fans by the window.
In addition to making money, this feeling of being supported by fans who like you is really fascinating. This is the biggest reason why so many people choose to be idols and work hard for it. It is also one of the true values of this profession.
"You must work harder next time you come back." The two of them played by the window for a long time before reluctantly returning to the lounge. On the way, when they were recalling the feeling just now, Jiang Seulqi suddenly sighed.
Pei Zhuhyun smoothed the end of her pink hair, revealing one of her reddish ears, nodded and said seriously:
"must."
…………
After another transfer and a flight of more than 20 hours, the crew of "Misborn" finally returned to the peninsula on the morning of the 26th.
When signing the contract, SM Company had already communicated with the crew and would stagger the schedule and filming schedule to allow Ji Kyung Yuan enough time to participate in personal schedules, such as EXO's first concert tour and very important events that cannot be postponed. Advertising, such as LG.
Of course, even if it is staggered, Chi Jingyuan will become very busy when the TV series is released and the filming tasks are very close. Whenever he comes back from a personal trip, he will basically work overtime. This is unavoidable, and he has been mentally prepared for it. .
However, they can feel a little more relaxed before the broadcast, because there is still more than a month before the premiere on October 17. According to their progress and the amount of filming required, there is plenty of time.
After saying goodbye to the crew, Chi Jingyuan first went back to the dormitory to pack up his things, and then took the time to return to the company. After exchanging a few words with Li Chenghuan, he quickly joined EXO who had reunited. Taking advantage of this Take some time to practice together.
The next concert is tomorrow on the 27th. Chi Jingyuan, who just landed tonight, will fly to Xia Guosha City with his team.
The trapeze artist is no different.
Although he has practiced the concert process and stage countless times before,
Muscle memory, but it’s true that I haven’t danced for almost a week, so it’s still necessary to practice together.
During the break between practices, several members sat on the floor of the practice room sweating profusely, drinking water and chatting about the news that had just been exposed two days before they left:
"Is what you said about Kim Hyun Joong true or false..."
