Xiao Yunhai nodded and continued, "Then I'll have to trouble you to find me three cameramen and five makeup artists. Have them come over in the afternoon. I want to hold a meeting. The rest is already prepared. We'll try to finish filming in two days. "
Ge Wuyou chuckled and said, "Finishing a movie in two days? That's going to break the world record."
Sun Yanjun said, "Records are meant to be broken. Yunhai, do you think this movie can surpass one billion at the box office? "
Xiao Yunhai was stunned and said with a smile, "I forgot to tell everyone that I'm not going to release this movie in theaters."
Wang Guoan asked, "Then where will you put it? Could it be Yun Qing's mobile video app? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's right. Every download costs 15 yuan. It's more than releasing it in theaters. As for the revenue, my goal is not one billion, but three billion. And that's just Hua Xia. If we include other regions, three billion Hua Xia yuan might become US dollars. "
Hearing Xiao Yunhai's confident words, everyone was dumbfounded. Even Yao Wenyuan was a little dumbfounded.
After a while, Ge Wuyou gave Xiao Yunhai a thumbs up and said, "Yunhai, you're awesome."
In the afternoon, Xiao Yunhai met the eight students that Chang Qingsheng had found and made some requests. After they understood, he let them go back to prepare.
At seven o 'clock in the evening, in a five-star hotel, Xiao Yunhai gathered all the actors for a drink and talked about the filming.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Teachers, everyone has read the script. Each character has its own characteristics. We'll go to the set tomorrow at six o 'clock and use two hours to string together the lines. Then, we'll follow the pattern of a play and walk it from beginning to end. What do you think? "
Wu Jun chuckled and said, "No problem. Everyone, I've already memorized the lines. Don't be stuck and waste my energy. "
"Hey, Old Wu, it sounds like you're issuing us a challenge," Qin Tao said.
Wu Jun smiled and said, "Do you dare to accept?"
Wang Tianming said, "If you don't dare to accept such a challenge, how can you be considered an actor? By the way, Old Wang, I have something to discuss with you. How about the two of us switch roles? I like this taxi driver very much. "
Wang Guoan glared at him and said angrily, "You'd better get rid of that idea as soon as possible. There's a lot of room to perform in this role. I wouldn't change it even if you beat me to death. "
Wang Tianming said, "That will depend on your performance. If you don't perform well, get off the stage and get lost. "
Wang Guoan rolled his eyes and said, "Let me tell you, I drove a taxi for three days to get the feeling for this role."
Wang Tianming said in surprise, "You're going to drive? You didn't hit anyone, did you? "
Wang Guoan said, "If I had bumped into someone, do you think you would have seen me today? Sigh, I didn't hit him, but I did hit a luxury car that he just bought. I had to pay a lot of money. "
"Puchi."
"Hahahaha."
Hearing Wang Guoan's words, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
However, they admired Wang Guoan's efforts for the role. This was what a real actor should do.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Xiao Yunhai got the chauffeur to send the teachers home and the hotel. In the end, only the two young men, Huang Bo and Li Shangming, were left.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Neck, Brother Li, to be honest, compared to these teachers, the two of you are still lacking. You must prepare well when you go back."
Huang Bo nodded and said, "Third Brother, don't worry. There won't be any problems with me acting as the security guard. "
Li Shangming said, "I've acted as an assassin several times. I have some confidence in this role."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's good. Let's go, I'll send you home. "
The next day at six o 'clock in the morning, the cast and crew of "12 Citizens" arrived.
It took a full two hours for all the preparations to be completed.
Among them, Xiao Yunhai's makeup took the most time.
He was acting as the lead prosecutor in the movie, so he had to disguise himself as a middle-aged man. The two makeup students spent a lot of effort before they were able to get it done.
All the actors were in their positions. Everyone sat in their respective seats and began to rehearse their lines.
No one present had a script. The moment they came up, they began to talk non-stop. One after another, they even did all sorts of actions from time to time.
When they encountered problems in understanding, Xiao Yunhai paused for a moment to let everyone discuss it.
About ninety minutes later, everyone finished rehearsing their lines.
Filming officially began.
The actors' auras suddenly rose and intertwined with each other. Even the air seemed to become hot.
When they were rehearsing their lines, no one used any strength. They just knew when to say their lines.
But now, their mannerisms, auras, expressions, and actions had all changed. Especially in their sitting posture, it was almost possible to tell each other's identities and occupations at a glance.
In order to complete it in one go, Xiao Yunhai divided the entire movie into thirty scenes. Each scene took about five minutes.
If one of the actors had a problem at the last second, the first four minutes would be wasted. This was a very high requirement for the actors.
Similarly, if they could complete it without any problems, the entire movie would be even more exciting.
In his previous life, the young director Xu Ang found so many veteran actors to act. It was because the performance of the actors was the most important in the entire movie.
And the actors Xiao Yunhai found were all the best in Hua Xia. Not only did they shoot movies, but most of them also frequently acted in plays. There was nothing to say about their skills.
From the beginning, there was no comedy. It was really a "you sing, I'll come on stage" performance. They portrayed their roles incisively and vividly.
In the first few scenes, there were almost no mistakes. Everything was done in one take. It was incomparably awesome.
While Xiao Yunhai and the others were wholeheartedly immersed in the filming of the film, in another building, the students of the Performing Arts Department were closely watching the closed-circuit television, concentrating on the performances of these film kings.
"This is a movie star? It's simply amazing. "
"Quick, look at Teacher Wang Guoan's taxi driver. It's really perfect. I thought he was most confident in playing the king, general, or minister. I didn't expect him to be so good at playing the common people. "
"Wrong. Senior Xiao's role as the prosecutor is good. Whether it's sitting posture or aura, it's almost exactly the same as those prosecutors. Amazing. "
"Teacher Sun Yanjun's role as the boss of the urban-rural fringe area is not bad. The way he speaks is like a hooligan. He looks like he's going to pick a fight with someone."
"Didn't you guys notice that Teacher Wu Jun's role as a millionaire was very good? Although he didn't speak, he sat there with a lot of style. "
The students expressed their opinions on the performances of the teachers in the movie.
