Zhao Wanqing asked, "Director Hong, do you know when they'll be back?"
"Who knows?" Hong Tianchou waved his hand and said discontentedly, "I'll call Xia Hongda at noon and ask him about it. At this critical moment, he sent the assistant director and the action director back. It's simply nonsense."
Sun Yanjun chuckled and suddenly looked at Xiao Yunhai. His eyes lit up and he said to Hong Tianchou, "Old Hong, you really don't know that you have a treasure mountain. Don't you have a director in front of you? Although it's only a micro movie, the quality is definitely top-notch. I think it shouldn't be a problem for you to be the assistant director. "
"Yes." Hong Tianchou slapped his forehead and said to Xiao Yunhai, "Yunhai, how is it? Are you confident that you can take on the role of the assistant director while shooting Lu Bu well? Don't worry, it'll probably only be for today. Hum Ming should be back tomorrow. "
"This Hum Ming probably won't be able to come back in this lifetime. He cheated Xia Hongda of more than 300 million. It's already good that he's still alive." Xiao Yunhai thought in his heart, but he said, "Don't worry, Director Hong, it's not a problem. I also want to shoot a movie next year. Being the assistant director of such a big production team will definitely be of great help to me. There's nothing to say. Let's do it. "
Hong Tianchou laughed and said, "Good. Now, let's shoot the scene where Lu Bu shoots the halberd at the Yuan Gate. Arrange the scene for me. Consider it my test for you."
After that, he told all the staff about Xiao Yunhai being the assistant director, in case Xiao Yunhai couldn't command them.
Xiao Yunhai didn't refuse and quickly entered the role of the assistant director.
The position of the assistant director was definitely very important in the production team. The formation of the production team, the shooting, the finishing, and even the post-production were almost inseparable from him at all times.
Hong Tianchou gave this position to him. This was to test Xiao Yunhai's directing ability.
It must be known that the team of the Three Kingdoms crew was definitely one of the top teams in the industry. To gain the trust of this group of people, Xiao Yunhai needed to show a convincing level.
Fortunately, he had been on the set for many years in his previous life, and he had seen all kinds of scenes. After receiving Hong Tianchou's instructions, he didn't panic at all and methodically prepared for the shooting.
"Photography teacher, please adjust the camera 30 degrees to the left. Later, when the sun rises, there might be a problem."
"Make-up teacher, Teacher Sun Yanjun's make-up is too thick. Liu Bei is almost forty years old. There is no need to make him look too young."
"Props teacher, …"
Throughout the morning, Xiao Yunhai was able to get into character quickly when there was a scene with Lu Bu. Almost all the scenes were completed in one take. He even had a fierce scene with Liu Bei, who was played by Sun Yanjun. His acting skills were recognized by everyone.
When there were no scenes, he would become the assistant director and tidy up the messy crew. Lighting, photography, stage management, and so on were all at his fingertips. There was no feeling of unfamiliarity with him, and he had established his initial prestige among the crew.
Hong Tianchou originally wanted to give him some guidance, but after a few scenes, with his strict eyes, he didn't find any mistakes.
During lunch, Hong Tianchou couldn't help but pat Xiao Yunhai on the shoulder and said, "No wonder you want to be a director. With your level, there is no problem at all."
Sun Yanjun said proudly, "How is it? Director Hong, the assistant director I found for you is not bad, right? "
"Haha, Old Sun, don't be so proud. In the scene with Yunhai this morning, you used all your strength, didn't you? Heh, he's just a young man in his twenties, yet he managed to force you, an old man in your fifties or sixties, to this extent. In my opinion, you've really lived for nothing. "Hong Tianchou couldn't help but strike a blow at Sun Yanjun.
Sun Yanjun smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "This guy is a monster."
Xiao Yunhai quickly waved his hand and said, "Director Hong, Teacher Sun, please don't praise me like this. I know my own situation. If that scene had been a little longer, I probably wouldn't have been able to hang on. Teacher Sun's acting has already reached the pinnacle of perfection. I still have a long way to go. "
Xiao Yunhai wasn't being polite with his words. Compared to Sun Yanjun, Wang Guoan's acting skills weren't much worse. It was just that their auras were poles apart.
Wang Guoan's character, Cao Cao, was like a great mountain that suddenly pressed down, making people unable to resist.
Meanwhile, Sun Yanjun's character, Liu Bei, was like the sea with surging waves, silently leading people astray.
In the scene with the halberd shooting scene in the morning, Xiao Yunhai's invincible aura was almost taken away.
These old actors were all very good at acting. When Xiao Yunhai acted with them, the pressure was really great.
After lunch, Xiao Yunhai returned to the set and started to arrange the scenes for the afternoon shoot.
This scene was a scene where Cao Cao led his army to attack Lu Bu. Many soldiers were used as extras. Hence, Xiao Yunhai didn't dare to be careless. He led the staff and started to arrange the scenes seriously.
Half an hour later, all the preparations were completed. The actors were also in place.
Hong Tianchou checked and found no problems. He then revealed a look of approval at Xiao Yunhai.
When he was about to shoot, his assistant, Xiao Wang, suddenly ran out with a laptop and scolded Hong Tianchou angrily.
Little Wang said aggrievedly, "Director Hong, I'm really sorry. The main thing is that this matter is too big. In my panic, I forgot the rules of the set. "
Wang Guoan, who was at the side, asked curiously, "What on earth made you so flustered?"
Little Wang pursed her lips and said, "Director Hong, teachers, Assistant Director Hu Ming and Teacher Cheng Ye probably won't be able to come. They're in big trouble. Look, it turns out that they were the ones who got someone to report the drug incident. This is their video from last night. Someone posted it on the Internet. "
Hong Tianchou and the others were shocked. They didn't even care about filming. They quickly asked Little Wang to turn on the computer and watch it.
Xiao Yunhai leaned over and watched. He thought to himself, "Who posted this video? They didn't post it themselves. Hongda Entertainment shouldn't do such a self-deprecating thing. Then, it should be those entertainment companies who have this motive. "
"After all, this kind of thing is a big scandal for Hongda Entertainment. In the eyes of the outside world, it may be a joke at most, but in the industry, it's a stink to the bottom. At the very least, those big production teams will definitely not dare to use Hongda Entertainment's people anymore. "
After watching the video, Hong Tianchou's face was very ugly. The assistant director, whom he had always relied on, had ruined the crew. He had trusted him so much. This was simply a slap in his face.
The other actors also had their own thoughts.
Hong Tianchou looked at Xiao Yunhai and said, "Yunhai, it seems that you'll have to keep the assistant director position. The production team will pay you. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "It doesn't matter if I get paid or not. As long as Director Hong doesn't think that I'm too bad, it's fine."
Wang Guoan chuckled and said, "I just saw your setup. It's better than Ho Ming's. No wonder Old Sun said that you're amazing this morning. Maybe one day, the two of us will have to act for you. When that time comes, don't think that we're old. "
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Teacher Wang, let's not praise each other. If others hear this, they'll think that we're selling melons and praising ourselves."
Everyone laughed, and the oppressive atmosphere just now was swept away.
Soon, the news spread throughout the production team. The one who felt the most upset was Wang Shangqun.
In the video, it was very clear that the reason why Cheng Ye wanted to deal with He Hucheng was to let Wang Shangqun take the role. However, he didn't expect that things would turn out so badly. He also didn't expect that after He Hucheng left, the role wouldn't fall into Wang Shangqun's hands. Instead, it would be taken away by Xiao Yunhai.
It had to be said that Ho Ming and Cheng Ye had made a dowry for Xiao Yunhai.
Wang Shangqun felt that the crew members around him seemed to be looking at him strangely. His face suddenly burned. Although no one said anything, Wang Shangqun still felt very uncomfortable.
Originally, he had scenes in the afternoon, but Wang Shangqun really wasn't in the mood to film, so he asked for leave from Hong Tianchou.
Hong Tianchou understood Wang Shangqun's feelings. He counseled him and let him go back to rest.
In the following filming, Xiao Yunhai fully displayed his superior coordination ability. He took care of the entire set in an orderly manner. The efficiency of the filming also increased a lot, which made Hong Tianchou very satisfied.
In the blink of an eye, a week passed just like that.
All the large-scale war scenes of the Three Kingdoms crew had been filmed. The most expensive part was over.
Due to Xiao Yunhai's outstanding performance, the money spent by the crew was a lot less than the budget. This made the financial director sent by Hongda very relieved. He could complete his task perfectly.
During this time, Xiao Yunhai also lived a very fulfilling life.
The role of Lu Bu was no longer difficult for him. Filming was as simple as eating and drinking.
Even Wang Guoan and Sun Yanjun, who were acting opposite him, did their best and didn't dare to slack off. It could be seen that Xiao Yunhai's control of the role was definitely at the level of an award-winning actor.
Zhang Liao and Wang Shangqun, who had always been unconvinced by Xiao Yunhai, were directly suppressed by Xiao Yunhai's thunderous momentum more than ten NGs in a scene where only he and Xiao Yunhai were acting opposite each other. In the end, they passed that scene under Xiao Yunhai's deliberate control.
From then on, Wang Shangqun no longer dared to say anything to Xiao Yunhai.
As for Diao Chan, who was played by Zhao Wanqing, the two of them only took three days to finish all the scenes. They didn't even have a single NG.
After filming "Step by Step," the two of them cooperated with each other to the point where they were in perfect harmony. Coupled with their excellent acting skills and intimacy in real life, it was difficult to make any mistakes.
The efficiency of the two of them was so high that the entire crew was shocked.
