The Birth of the Best Director

Chapter 8 The power of montage! Amazing acting, Jing Tian!
……

"Ayuan, this is the situation. I feel that Miss Jingtian should be very sincere. Otherwise, how about we sell the company and make a lot of money for her?"

The company opened by Lu Zhiyuan and Xin Yukun is just a shell company.

In the company, apart from the two of them, there was only a rented office and some equipment.

The equipment and instruments are also rented.

Even if Jing Tian bought the company, it would be useless as he couldn't restrict their personal freedom.

This isn't the slave era.

"Brother Kun, I know what you're thinking. It's nothing more than taking the money, not putting in the work, and then breaking up. But I advise you not to take that step."

It’s actually no big deal to cheat Jing Tian.

Zhang Yadong cheated Jing Tian, ​​but he's still fine, isn't he?
No one put him in a sack.

The main thing is that Lu Zhiyuan can't get over this hurdle.

Once some bottom lines are broken, your fighting spirit will be gone.

"Forget about the idea of ​​cashing in on a takeover. We still have to rely on our strength. I gave you the story outline for 'The Heart Labyrinth' earlier and asked you to revise the script. Have you finished revising it?"

For those who have been reborn, being a plagiarist also depends on the situation.

Lu Zhiyuan wanted to copy an online novel of several million words, but unfortunately, he couldn't even write the first chapter, which contained only a few thousand words.

It is not realistic to plagiarize TV dramas.

too long.

With movies alone, it's possible to do it as long as you remember some concepts and some plot innovations, write down the story outline, and find professionals to fill in the details.

It is even possible for him to surpass the original with his unique photographic talent.

"It's been changed."

"The story of 'The Heart Labyrinth' is really interesting. I feel that if it is made into a movie, even if the box office is not as good as those commercial films, the word of mouth will definitely be super explosive."

"Add to that your skills and my thriftiness... the chances of making a big profit with a small investment are very great."

It is precisely because he has the awesome script of "Maze of the Heart" in his hands that Xin Yukun is very sure that as long as he gets investment, he and Lu Zhiyuan will be able to turn their fortunes around.

Maybe, he will become a new big director.

"To film this script, I estimate the minimum investment would be 200 million... The two of us only have 100 million, so we're still a long way off."

As long as we raise another 100 million, the project can be launched.

Seeing that he was about to become a big director, be sought after by everyone, drive a luxury car, live in a mansion, be surrounded by beauties, and drink fresh tea every day... Xin Yukun couldn't help but want to hug Jing Tian's thighs again.

With the rich woman right before your eyes and the legendary shortcut to Zhongnan, who can resist?

"Brother Kun, don't worry. If Xingguang Canlan can't get investment, I still have a plan B."

"In short, this project must be launched within three months."

"By the end of this year, we can both return home in glory."

"As for the current stage, let's finish filming the music video first."

Lu Zhiyuan has always been like this, taking three steps at a time.

Xin Yukun sometimes wondered if Lu Zhiyuan’s brain was different from his own.
Why is he always so confident?

"Then, regarding selling the company..."

Xin Yukun couldn't help but want to take the shortcut of hanging out with a rich woman.

It’s such a pity to give up like this.

"Brother Kun, get this straight. My love story is made up, and the incident on the Xi'an city wall is fake. We've been lying to her from the beginning to the end, just to make her feel a little better about us... Now, her goodwill is about to burst, and she's starting to take it seriously. And you're still going after her?"

Relying on a non-existent love story, he managed to gain some favor from Jing Tian, ​​sold the copyright of the song "Possible", and then obtained the right to shoot the MV.

In total, they have made two profits.

Xin Yukun is now greedy and wants to sell the company and make a big profit from Jing Tian.

This is too deceptive.

An honest person shouldn't be bullied like this.

"Brother Kun, give yourself some virtue. That's enough."

After a few contacts, Lu Zhiyuan discovered that Jing Tian was indeed a simple and kind girl. Although she was very rich, she was not arrogant.

I saw that there were college students working part-time in his photography team.

She even asked the other party what school he was studying in, how his grades were, whether his family was in financial difficulty, and whether he needed help applying for a scholarship.

This made Lu Zhiyuan feel a little ashamed and he didn't dare to talk to her any more.

……

Around 8pm.

The night was dark.

Jiaozuo Film and Television City, under the city wall outside the Chu Palace.

After the candles are lit, they are arranged in the corners one by one, creating a special light and shadow effect.

Jing Tian changed into an ancient costume. She was wearing a green skirt in the afternoon, but now she changed into a red skirt, from being elegant and charming to being bright and gorgeous.

Still looks great.

"Lights, turn on all of them."

"Two cameras, close-up together."

"Aim one at the person's face, and one at the shadow on the wall." "Start!"

After Lu Zhiyuan said "start", everyone started to move.

Outside the camera, a person holding flowers gently patted Jing Tian's shoulder and then knelt on one knee.

Jing Tian turned around and suddenly covered her mouth in surprise.

One camera gave a close-up of her facial expression the moment she turned around, while the other camera focused on her shadow on the wall.

Under the light of the candle, Jingtian's shadow danced happily.

"Okay, that's enough, change the scene."

After being proposed to, she was so moved that she almost cried, but also smiled happily. It was such a complex emotion that Jing Tian simply couldn't act out that realistic feeling.

So, Lu Zhiyuan took a shortcut.

Take a picture of your shadow.

Just now, the shadow on the wall performed so well.
The next one was even easier.

There was originally a lonely doll on the city wall. After Jing Tian passed by, he picked up the doll that had fallen to the ground and put it back, making a pair.

No face-to-face required.

Just take a picture of her delicate hand.

"OK, call it a day."

In less than 10 minutes, all three scenes for today were shot.

Edited into an MV, it can at least last half a minute of plot.

The MV for the entire song is just over three minutes long. As for the rest, Lu Zhiyuan plans to go back and find some aerial shots of various scenic spots to fill in the content.

Of course, in the next few days, Lu Zhiyuan will continue to help Jing Tian and take some beautiful close-up shots, trying to show Jing Tian's youthful beauty in the MV.

"Ayuan, how was my performance just now?"

Jing Tian felt that she had met a fake director.
She didn't put in any effort at all and just acted casually, but she was praised to the sky.

Acting, is it that simple?
But if it was that simple, why was she disliked by other directors every day in other crews?

"It was a very good performance. It was absolutely perfect."

Words are weak and difficult to convince people.

In front of Jing Tian, ​​Lu Zhiyuan used his laptop and spent 5 minutes to roughly cut out a version.

in the screen.

Jing Tian, ​​dressed in a red ancient costume, strolled under the city wall, with burning candles on both sides. She seemed a little lonely in this moonlit night.

In the corner of the picture, there is a section of a city wall and a lonely doll, swaying back and forth in the wind.

But in the next moment.

Someone patted Jing Tian's shoulder, handed her flowers, and knelt on one knee, as if proposing.

The moment Jing Tian turned around, the camera suddenly slowed down.

The moment she looked back, her hair fluttered gently with her movements. A few strands of hair brushed against her flushed cheeks, adding a touch of charming charm.

Seeing the flowers and figures behind him, Jing Tian's pupils trembled slightly, and a trace of disbelief and astonishment seemed to flash across his eyes, followed by endless surprise and emotion.

Jing Tian certainly doesn't have this kind of acting skills.

However, at this moment, the candles that Lu Zhiyuan had arranged in advance were swaying just right with the breeze, and the chaotic light and shadows dotted Jing Tian's black eyes.

It's hard to tell what her true emotions are, but it only brings the atmosphere to its peak.

God!

At this moment, Jing Tian felt that his acting skills were amazing.

What’s even more amazing is…

Lu Zhiyuan seemed to know that he couldn't act out her surprised expression, so he jumped directly to the wall behind her.

Watching the shadow jumping excitedly there, expressing her happiness and excitement.

Jing Tian was very satisfied.

Finally, the ending scene is even more exciting.

A slender hand picked up the little doll that fell in the corner, and together with the one on the wall, they formed a pair and swayed in the wind.

It makes this love last forever.

Full of aftertaste.

——Flowers, the girl’s surprised look back, the shadows jumping excitedly on the wall, and the doll couple standing side by side again.

A typical montage combination technique.

But the effect is really good.

"Ayuan, you know what? I feel like I've finally found the person I was waiting for."

At this moment, Jing Tian couldn't help it anymore.

Tonight, she will take Lu Zhiyuan away directly.

If other directors knew how to film her like Lu Zhiyuan did... her future acting career would definitely be smooth sailing.

Who said my acting is bad?
If my acting skills are bad, why can I be so perfect here with Lu Zhiyuan?
——I could have endured those people's slander on my acting skills if I had never seen how I looked in your lens!
