Chapter 45 The Circus
Suzhou is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and sparsely populated suburbs.
Gan Tao closed his eyes and headed towards the lush forest not far away, covering the green grass on the ground. He took a deep breath and suddenly felt that his turbid head became much clearer, and even the anger in his lungs became much weaker.
He opened his eyes and called out twice at the dark horse beside him, and then reached out and gently stroked the horse's neck.
Whether it is the crew of "Time Travel" or "Shiyilang", he has many circus scenes. After repeated guidance from the horse master, he has also gained some experience in comforting the horses.
He opened his palm and fed some food to the black horse. He turned over and jumped onto the horse, his movements were extremely casual, which attracted Zhou Qing to praise him!
After riding a small walk on the dark horse happily, he returned to the filming location. Director Li Wenyan was still surrounded by everyone. He curiously clamped his horse's belly and headed towards the few people.
In the crowd, he vaguely heard Li Wenyan sweating profusely and shouted to the surroundings: "Now I can't ride a horse? I'm so anxious that I'll let him learn now, and if he really can't do it, use a substitute."
Li Wenyan shouted loudly, and he thought that maybe someone had heard it on purpose. Relying on his height, he looked at Wu Qilong with an awkward expression at the door of the wooden house. He probably thought that he should be the only one.
It’s not embarrassing to be afraid of horses, especially when riding for the first time, I always feel a little panicked, just like he is afraid of heights. After a few times, I will get used to it.
He didn't go up and meddle in other people's business. Wu Qilong is the biggest actor in the crew and is mostly taken care of by people.
"Xu Xu" turned his horse's head. When he was about to take this rare opportunity to find a cool nap for a while, Yang Junyi and Zhang Jin turned over and asked him, "Tao, is it a horse racing?"
He curled his lips and said, "You are not as good as you two. You both have the skills to live with you. I am a physical mortal body!"
The two played Lingjiu and Xueying in "The Eleventh Doctor", which are the supporting roles of the third and fourth numbers. They are both supporting roles and Zhou Yi, and they often get along with each other.
Yang Junyi shouted: "Who is not a physical body? The horse can only be vigorous when running, and it can't be realized slowly."
He blinked in anticipation and said, "Then you give in to me, I haven't ridden a fast horse!"
"Oh, I guarantee you want to run after running."
Yang Junyi finished speaking with a smile, pointing to the dense forest not far away and said, "Just take that dense forest as the end point, just run there and just lie down for a while, I guess I can't take a photo in the morning."
Zhang Jin: "I'll call for counting, three, two, one."
"drive!"
The three of them shouted at the same time, and three horses galloped away beside the crowd, scaring the staff around them to jump. Li Wenyan cursed at the backs of the three of them: "Fall!"
Zhou Qing, who knew nothing, saw Gan Tao flying away, was so scared that her face turned pale and ran away with the three of them.
Gan Tao played several roles alone, and his role was quite serious. If something happened, he would have to stop a few crews, and Jiang Bingrou would not be able to strip him alive.
Gan Tao, who was holding the reins tightly, felt that his butt was hit by someone with a sledgehammer, which was extremely uncomfortable.
Although he had never rode a horse, he had heard people talk about the correct posture of riding a fast horse. After stomping his feet tightly, he bowed and slowly lifted his butt from the saddle.
A series of rapid "waving" sounds sounded, and the three of them stopped the horse and slowly drove into the dense forest. The winner of the horse racing just now was Zhang Jin, and he was at the end.
The three of them found a piece of open space and stopped. After bolting the horse, Yang Junyi spread the cardboard prepared in advance on the ground. It seemed that he had a plan.
After drinking the water, he dissipated the cigarette for the two of them, and asked Yang Junyi, "Junyi, how did you practice martial arts since you were a child?"
Yang Junyi leaning on the trunk of a tree said: "It's similar to the movies, it's just about pressing legs, practicing arm strength, boxing, etc. every day."
He put the hem of the costume to the crook of his thighs and lay down on the cardboard and asked, "Do you think I'm still rushing?"
In recent days, he has been shooting all fighting scenes, and it feels more and more difficult.
Some shots, Yang Junyi, Zhang Jin, and even Wu Qilong who can dance, can easily make them, but they will take a lot of time, and even if they do them, the martial arts finger will be dissatisfied.
Zhang Jin next to him lowered his head and reminded him: "Learning martial arts is too hard, and your bones have been formed. Practicing now will hurt your bones and you cannot practice them."
Yang Junyi smiled and said, "One day I will open a martial arts museum. If you go to exercise, I will teach you some routine moves, shoot TV, and play well, but you won't be participating in the competition."
Gan Tao asked him curiously: "Why, don't you want to be a star?"
Yang Junyi said: "When I make enough money, I want to open a martial arts school. I don't care if there are celebrities or stars. What about you?"
Zhang Jin hehe, "I'm almost the same, right?"
Gan Tao, who had his hands on the back of his head, closed his eyes and said, "I should stay in the circle. When I don't have to go filming for money, I can shoot whatever I want. If no one looks for me, I will take my wife and children out for a trip and travel around the world!"
"You both have real skills, so why not ask Sister Jiang to ask for a position as a martial artist. I don't have to be disliked by the martial artist often."
Yang Junyi said: "I thought about it, but we can't speak. Why don't you ask us? Sister Jiang values you more."
He said, "When I see Sister Jiang next time, I will mention this to you."
If Yang Junyi and Zhang Jin can become the martial arts commander, it will be a good thing for him. If no one scolds him, he can still follow him and learn routines.
The three of them just shut up and took a break for a while, then Zhou Qing, who arrived, woke him up and said, "Brother, the director asked him to go back and start filming immediately."
Gan Tao, who stepped on the horse, reached out to Zhou Qing beside him and said, "Come up, take you back together."
Zhou Qing's head shook: "Don't, I'm scared when I see it. You guys go first, I'll walk back."
He shrugged: "Okay, then you can walk slowly, for several miles."
On the set of filming, Wu Qilong, who was riding on the horse, was dragged by a horse master, and it seemed that he had adapted. Li Wenyan waved to them and was about to move.
The horse racing scene to be filmed is the biggest scene in the whole play, and most actors have to appear.
Of course, most actors watch the competition in the stands, and the protagonist Xiao Shiyilang also squatted in the corner and quietly admired Shen Bijun's beauty. Only Lian Chengbi, who he played, wanted to ride a horse and speed on the field.
Gan Tao, who insisted on not using a substitute, attracted the director and pointed at him and scolded: "You are a flop, and you will explode later. The horse is easily frightened. Don't you use a substitute?"
He pointed to the dark horse beside him and said, "Master Horse said it was an old horse. I have experienced this kind of situation, and I think my skills are OK, so it should be fine."
He was also a swollen person and pretended to be fat. Dozens of horses ran together. If something went wrong, he had to go to the hospital.
But you have to be tough on the inside. If you don’t fight when you are young, you can’t wait to fight when you are old. You can still leave a good impression in the director’s mind and be more restrained when scolding him in the future.
After explaining the director's speech, he followed the blasting master with the jockey, carefully recording the blasting direction and blasting marks, which was related to his wealth and life, and he dared not slacken at all.
After passing the test shot twice, the director said, "action."
He was wearing a white robe, with long hair tied behind him, and silver-white cloth strips tied to his forehead, rushed out from the designated position with dozens of jockeys.
After rushing through several blasting points one after another, he saw the photographer standing in the car not far away taking photos of his camera. He slowed down at the right time and slowly raised his originally bent upper body.
He has to perform, and Lian Chengbi is handsome and calm when he makes his first appearance.
The camera of the horse racing is only one minute, but it took a whole day to shoot. This is just a camera of Lian Chengbi alone. The camera of characters such as Xiao Shiyilang, Chen Bijun, and Yang Kaitai must be supplemented later.
The filming locations of "Xiao Shiyilang" in Suzhou have all ended. When the crew moved to the Shidu Scenic Area in Beijing, half a month later, the dinner he and Lou Ye agreed to have been repeatedly promoted.
Capital.
Outside the restaurant that Lou Ye booked, Gan Tao looked up at the quaint signboard of "Yi Mingxuan" and muttered to Zhou Qing: "The name is quite literary."
Zhou Qing pointed to the black shirt that was half stuffed into his pants and half exposed behind him and said, "Brother, you put your clothes in order, you are the big director."
While stuffing his shirt, he curled his lips and said, "I promise, Lou Ye is not as good as me."
Zhou Qing didn't believe it: "How is that possible?"
In her eyes, Lou Ye is also a director who has won awards at the International Film Festival. The media has always written their titles of "international directors"!
He said disdainfully: "Impossible? Tell you that when I was filming "Suzhou River", there was a time when I was filming "Suzhou River" that I had to miss the heavy rain as the weather forecast, Lou Ye, I, photographer Wang Yu, and Zhou Xun, four of them, wrapped in military coats and squeezed in an alley next to the film and television city, waiting for the rain to come."
After speaking, he muttered alone: "Who hasn't seen anyone's frustration yet!"
As he stepped into the restaurant, he turned around and looked at the few customers, but he didn't notice Lou Ye. When he was thinking about where to go to the second floor, a person with a broken beard stood up in the corner and waved to him frequently.
He looked at Lou Ye with a bearded mouth in shock: "My brother, why are you like this?"
Lou Ye, whose head-up pattern deepened, said: "I have been squatting at home for several months and have no time to take care of it."
After hearing Lou Ye's words, he was speechless. He had no time to take care of him at home for several months, but instead wandered around outside and had time to take care of him?
Lou Ye filled the two of them with water: "Oh, let me make a horn, don't say, you are the right size, you must keep it."
Gan Tao held his forehead and said, "I'm losing weight, you said it's just right!"
He was filming day and night, and the hot weather didn't want to eat. In just two months, he almost lost his sharp chin.
He stood up and waved to the waiter: "Let's order the dishes first. I finally have time to come out, so hurry up and have a good meal first."
After a hard meal, he picked up the wine glass and asked Lou Ye: "Brother, when will your scene start filming?"
Lou Ye and he had a cup of tea: "It's the end of the year, the funds are still small. In addition to you, you have to talk about a few actors."
He took a sip of wine and said regretfully: "It's probably a big deal. I'm full of time this year. I'll say whether I can go home for the New Year."
Lou Ye looked at him in disbelief: "So many appointments?"
He nodded and said, "It's all TV series produced by the company. I'll play a few small roles. You can find a replacement first. If not, I'll try to make time for you."
