Chapter 21 Stop Shooting

Zhou Jie is really a weird person.

He has been resting for twenty days since he fell down on horseback for the second time. He has been very careful when he has a big injury. When he heard that he still had to ride a horse, he was still scared and refused to return to the crew.

Not only the heart of the glass, but also the body of the glass!

He Xiuqiong and Sun Shupei led a large group of people, and barely finished filming the scene on the dam. When they returned to the Summer Resort, they fell into a very embarrassing situation.

Originally, they were the four leading actors, two men and two women, how can they film now that there are few people?

I can only skip Zhou Jie's scenes first, but as the protagonist of the play, Erkang has an intersection with almost every character. Jumping his scenes over is equivalent to re-writing the script. Especially, Lin Xinru, who has the most scenes against him, has finally been through the role-changing storm, but now that Zhou Jie is missing, he will still be unable to play for several days.

Uncle Sun was so worried that his hair was even white. His head was now in chaos. The original script was broken, and there was no clear and smooth plot idea at all.

What's more, there is the camera crew that has been unhappy with him since the start of shooting. On the surface, it is a dispute arising from the different shooting concepts of the two sides, but in fact it is a power struggle.

Sun Shupei was found by the producer, but he actually worked. However, the photography team is an insider of the investor, and outsiders are not as good as their own son. The photography team also provoked trouble and always wanted to overwhelm Sun Shupei and establish his own boss status.

If Sun Shupei really doesn't want to pay attention to these bad things, he will just shoot a TV series himself, not a political struggle, but it won't work. As a director, you must ensure your authority. If a photographer is invincible, no one will listen to the crew who conveys instructions.

"well……"

Li Mingqi sighed three times in ten minutes, and the folds on his face seemed to be a little deeper.

"I said Grandma Li, are you so worried?" Chu Qing was puzzled.

"What do you know? I have made a lot of movies. I have never encountered such a bad crew." Li Mingqi said.

"What does it have to do with us if the crew is good?" Chu Qing said suddenly.

Li Mingqi's face turned right and said, "Qingzi, what you said is wrong. Do you think you have given me money anyway? It doesn't matter to me anyway, what the filming is like? This is not right! We are actors, and earning some money is to make a living, but acting is to pursue."

"What? Pursuit?" Chu Qingqi said.

He watched those celebrities who filmed and sang just to make money, and could he be associated with pursuing such high-end words?

"Yes! Think about it, in this life, people can have the opportunity to experience various roles and perform various lives. This opportunity is nothing but actors."

Li Mingqi's eyes, which seemed a little old, suddenly had a strange look and said, "You have little experience and may not be able to understand it. In the future, if you really meet such a character, let alone anything else, just one glance, you will know that this role is prepared for yourself! That feeling, no matter how you say it, it is like a turtle looking at mung beans, and you will like to see it. Once you act again, your whole body is full of energy and you can't wait to get into the notebook. That's so satisfying!"

She let out a long sigh and sighed: "It's worth it if an actor can meet such a role in his whole life."

Chu Qing was stunned when he heard this, and remembered Xiao Wu again.

It was quite interesting when playing, but it was quite satisfying to say it, or even life pursuits, was still far from it. Maybe because it was not a role that was born to be destined to be like the old lady said.

"This drama is pretty good, it's just ruined like this, what a pity!"

Li Mingqi returned to the initial topic and sighed again.

"Why is it just a waste? Are you still taking pictures every day?" Chu Qing said.

"Hi! Shooting is shooting! Do you know how many scenes you can shoot in a day?" Li Mingqi asked.

Chu Qing shook his head.

Li Mingqi stretched out a hand and said, "At most, five games!"

Chu Qing had no idea about this professional noun, so he didn't know whether it was more or less.

Li Mingqi looked at his confused eyes and explained: "This scene has no fixed time, it depends on the script and the director's arrangement. Sometimes you have an action or an expression, and this is just one. Sometimes it is complicated, and a scene can be performed for a long time."

Chu Qing understood a little and asked, "Then how can we calculate?"

"Let me tell you this. A TV series lasts for more than 40 minutes, and we can only film it for seven or eight minutes a day." Li Mingqi said.

This sentence is easy to understand, and Chu Qing was shocked in an instant.

Huanzhu remembers that it was 24 episodes, which was calculated based on forty-five minutes per episode, which totaled more than one thousand minutes, but this was the final shot, and the actual shots were even doubled.

A rough calculation, darn!

"Isn't that going to be filmed for a year?"

"That's right, but I definitely can't really shoot it for a year. Just like what I said, it's so bad!" Li Ming said.

When Chu Qing heard this, he sighed.

The old lady said a lot and was a little tired. After a while, she asked after realizing it, "Huh? Where is that girl Bingbing?"

Chu Qing was also puzzled and said, "I don't know either, I didn't watch it all morning. But she couldn't help but mutter, and she didn't know where she came out after a while."

Li Mingqi laughed and said, "I feel much younger when I spend time with you all day."

Chu Qing also smiled and said, "You take care of us, that's why you look down on us."

"I'm not a big deal if you look down on me." Li Mingqi smiled and said, "I just like you two children, I like you, and I like you, and I'm tempted."

"What's there to like about that bad guy?!"

A crisp and tender voice penetrated.

Li Mingqi smiled at Chu Qing and said, "Oh, she really can't help but chant."

Mr. Fan sat next to him, held the old lady's arm, and said, "What bad things did he say about me?"

Li Mingqi patted her little hand and said, "He said you are pretty and cute, smart and capable."

"I don't believe it!" Mr. Fan raised his head arrogantly.

"Where did you go?" Chu Qing asked with a smile.

"Oh, right, let's talk about serious things." Fan Xiaoye said nervously: "I just saw Sister Qiong and Director Sun talking, so I eavesdropped for a while."

Chu Qing asked: "What are you listening?"

"I didn't listen to it specifically, and the two seemed very unhappy. I just listened and said that I would hold a meeting for us later." Mr. Fan said.

Li Mingqi frowned and said, "Give it to us?"

"Well, it's all the staff."

…………

Hotel, large conference room.

There is a circular table in the middle, with about ten chairs placed, and a row of benches surrounded by walls.

Nearly a hundred people were crowded in the room, and all the crew, except for the particularly fringe personnel, were coming.

The people who could sit in the middle had not arrived yet. Chu Qing hid in a corner next to Mr. Fan, and listened to the crowd whispering.

There is air conditioning in the house, which is not very hot, but what Chu Qing is most annoying is meetings, especially those of many people. He feels like he is being stuffed in a jar full of flies.

After a while, the door was pushed open and three people came in.

We knew both the first two, He Xiuqiong and Sun Shupei, and behind us was a middle-aged man with short suits and a very capable look.

Chu Qing didn't know him, but he noticed keenly that the moment the man came in, the boss in the photography team turned pale.

Three people sat at the table, and the middle-aged man glanced around and said, "You guys come here to sit."

It was exactly what the photography team said, so the people came to the circular table gently.

He Xiuqiong first spoke and introduced: "This is the Director of Ouyang."

Chu Qing knew that she said that it was no one else, but Ouyang, the director of Mango Economics, and one of the producers of Huanzhu.

This drama was jointly produced and invested by Grandma Qiongyao's company and Mango TV. As one of the big bosses, Ouyang doesn't show up easily, just like Qiongyao. Now he has arrived here from all the way, and I'm afraid something big will happen.

Sure enough, when everyone was quiet, He Xiuqiong said: "Yesterday, Teacher Qiongyao called me and told me something. To be honest, I was also shocked by her decision..."

She paused and continued: "Teacher Qiongyao decided to stop filming this movie!"

If Chu Qing still remembers the composition style he wrote when he was in school, he would definitely write: This sentence is like throwing a stone into the calm lake, causing layers of water waves.

He didn't listen to other people's comments or show his various beauty skills. He only looked at Li Mingqi. It happened that the old lady was also looking at him. The two of them sighed in a tacit way.

Mr. Fan was mentally prepared and was not doing well yet, but Su Youpeng, Chen Zhipeng and Lin Xinru were like they were instantly petrified.

One of them is a newcomer who wants to make a name for himself, and two have become famous and want to turn around. They both have high hopes for this drama, but they did not expect that the result was like this and they could not accept it for a while.

At this time, Ouyang also spoke: "Everyone knows that this drama was co-production from both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and most of the staff are from our station. I know many of you. Teacher Qiongyao must have her reasons for making this decision. Let's not look for objective reasons, but first look for the reasons from yourself. You guys!"

He named the people from the photography team, and then ordered several staff members in charge of important positions and said, "And you, you, please check yourself first, whether there are any shortcomings in what you did and whether there are any irresponsible things!"

Ouyang's tone suddenly became harsh and said, "We have a rare opportunity to cooperate with our compatriots in Taiwan. If the problem really lies with our staff, we must punish them severely! I came here from Taiwan to remind you that you can do nothing before, but in the future, I must correct my attitude and cooperate with the director's work seriously!"

The photographer sitting opposite was shivering, lowering his head and silently.

The division of labor between He Xiuqiong and him was obviously a red face and the other a white face. Then he said, "Don't worry too much. Although Teacher Qiongyao has this decision, there is still room for recovery. The key is whether we can let her change her mind."

Ouyang said: "Mr. He and Director Sun will call Teacher Qiongyao and try their best to persuade her to change her decision. After all, we have worked hard for so long, and everyone is working hard, and the loss of stopping the shooting is too great."

Sun Shupei, who had not spoken out, also spoke up and expressed his attitude.

"We will suspend shooting these days and let us tell you after we communicate with the teacher. Okay, don't worry too much, we will definitely have a satisfactory result."
