my time as a director

It's also a romance movie, but if you think carefully about your own waiting for the wind, although there are some philosophies about life in it, it pales in comparison to the rejuvenated male lead.

Teng Huatao believes that with the setting of reverse growth, the hero's life is definitely very extraordinary.

Aside from emotion, Teng Huatao wanted to know the specific content more and more, and then he remembered that he hadn't read Li Qian's script yet.

It's a pity that they are all his own people in his heart. When Li Qian discussed the plot with the idle Qi Yukun and Su Lun, he didn't call him. He even made two romance films, so he can give some better opinions. .

However, I happened to be making a movie at the time and didn't have time.

What a pity, what a pity, we can only see the complete script when Li Qian returns to the capital.

In Ninghang, Li Qian, who finished the press conference, completely ignored the outside voice and devoted himself to the filming of the movie.

The shooting didn't start directly in the afternoon. One was that Ma Qingyang was free on the 9th, and the other was that he had to take a rest after traveling a long distance from the capital.

Early the next morning, the crew was busy in a KFC store in the old town of Ninghang.

Today is the scene where Chen Kun, who is 50 years old but looks only in his 20s, eats at the first KFC in Ninghang, and meets Ma Qingyang who comes to KFC to apply for a job.

The first KFC in Ninghang opened on Renhe Road 20 years ago, and Ma Qingyang applied for a job at this restaurant.

However, this store no longer exists, and the location team finally selected another KFC in the old city.

Although filming can't do business, the store didn't hesitate at all, and agreed to use it as a shooting location for free.

Of course, the store and the vicinity of the entrance must have undergone some decorations, and the crew has also obtained permission from the streets, communities, and surrounding businesses.

All departments of the crew were busy with their duties, and Ma Qingyang also arrived on time, looking very energetic, and volunteered to Li Qian, "Director Li, come on, I'm ready."

What are you doing, it's like what I want to do to you.

Li Qian smiled inwardly, and called the make-up team over, "Mr. Ma, please, let's go make up first, or as I said before, Xiaopingtou?"

Ma Qingyang's hair style hasn't changed for more than ten years, and the hair on his forehead has been ridiculed by netizens, but 20 years ago, his hair was much thicker.

Li Qian had discussed it with him before, and he simply cut that lock of hair a little shorter and had a real crew cut, but don't push the sides away.

Ma Qingyang was fine, he sacrificed for art, born in an art family, he understood.

However, before going to make up, Ma Qingyang still asked curiously, "Is this really suitable for that era?"

"Yes, it fits the era, and the overall picture looks more coordinated when you play together." Li Qian replied with a smile on his mouth, and explained to him with a bunch of professional vocabulary.

In fact, Li Qian just looked at the lock of hair on his forehead which was a bit awkward.

Moreover, it is not suitable for a young man in his early thirties. Either wear a wig to make it look thicker, or simply cut it off. Li Qian automatically chose the latter.

As for the hairstyle being different from Ma Qingyang's back then, that's irrelevant.

Chapter 449

Ninghang, a KFC in the old town, the store has been restored to its appearance in the 90s. Although it does not look so modern, the seats are brand new.

Chen Kun, who looks much younger, eats hamburgers and French fries in the restaurant. Although he is 37 years old, he looks like a young man in his 20s after putting on makeup, but there is not much innocence in his deep eyes.

There were other customers in the store, young couples and parents with children.

At this time, a man with a crew cut wearing a wrinkled white shirt walked in at the door of the store. After putting on makeup, Ma Qingyang looked a little younger. He held a resume in his hand, looked around, and walked up to the front desk with a straight body.

Looking at the delicate waitress girl in front of her, with a very flat ironed white shirt and a tie on her red vest, Ma Qingyang asked calmly, "Hello, I'm here to apply for the job. Is the manager there?" ?”

The guest waiter was a young actress from the company, and the only scene she played was with Ma Qingyang. She was obviously flustered, and her upright body couldn't help but relax, and she lowered her head slightly to look at Ma Qingyang.

Li Qian in front of the monitor shook his head, and Qi Yukun beside him whispered, "Ma Qingyang is too calm."

"En." Li Qian uttered a syllable, but did not stop.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Yaoqing, who played the role of the manager of KFC, appeared on the stage. He has enough aura. Even if he is wearing a suit that looks a bit old-fashioned now, he is definitely a successful person.

Wang Yaoqing lowered his head and glanced at Ma Qingyang. Unlike the waitress girl, he looked down at Ma Qingyang instead of lowering his posture.

Glancing at Ma Qingyang's whole body, he casually took his resume, flipped through it casually, and returned it to him.

Speaking Mandarin with a strong flavor of Taiwan, he directly refused, "I'm sorry, you don't meet our requirements."

Ma Qingyang was slightly taken aback, "Manager, I have read the recruitment requirements, and I fully meet the requirements above, and I can also speak English."

"We are a large international company, and it is not enough to speak a few words of English."

Wang Yaoqing pointed to the surroundings of the store nonchalantly. There were stylishly dressed customers and waiters who were also well-dressed and had good looks and figures. , you are not suitable here."

"Okay, click!"

Li Qian waited patiently after a complete scene was performed, and then he called Ka, and at the same time called Ma Qingyang and Wang Yaoqing over.

Call out the shot that was not shot just now and show it to them, mainly for Ma Qingyang to see.

"Mr. Ma, you can see that when you walked in, your whole posture was wrong. This is the first KFC in Ninghang, a high-end place. You are here for an interview again, so you are too calm."

The first time, there were many problems. Li Qian said patiently, those who have never acted before, don't think about how smooth it will be.

Ma Qingyang had a different opinion, "That's true. Back then, KFC was even rarer than five-star hotels, but I brought students to the interview at that time. It was this kind of mentality. I remember it very clearly."

"But now you are not taking students to interview. In the plot, you are just an ordinary job seeker, which is different."

It is true that Ma Qingyang was rejected when he applied for KFC, but as a university teacher, he brought 23 of his students to the interview, but all the students passed the interview, and he was the only one who was rejected.

The plot only takes the core, that is, the application for KFC was rejected, and the specific Li Qian made changes.

"That is to say, I'm playing a poor boy looking for a job?" Ma Qingyang asked.

"Then you don't need to be too low-key, as long as you don't be so calm, the rest can be shown from the comparison of the whole scene."

Li Qian pointed to Ma Qingyang's clothes, and explained, "The shirt on your body has obvious wrinkles, but the waiters are wearing straight and flat, red vest with white shirt and tie, and the clothes of these guests, Adults with children are mostly dressed in neat suits, and young couples are all dressed in more avant-garde clothes of this era, and this contrast comes out."

KFC was really tall back then, going to KFC once was no less than a blind date for modern people, dressed up beautifully, and it was normal for adults to wear suits when they went to eat.

"The contrast between the background and the characters comes out. In this play, you are relatively on the disadvantaged side. Even Wang Yaoqing said that you are not suitable for this environment, which is contempt in disguise." Li Qian continued.

"After saying that, I understand that there are indeed many ways to make movies." Ma Qingyang understood, and watched movies a lot, so he probably understood what was going on.

But he was still a little curious, "But, why do you want to highlight my weakness?"

Li Qian smiled and said, "Mr. Ma, think about it. If the audience in front of the big screen sees a character like you, who also had this kind of job hunting experience back then, will they feel better?"

Suddenly, Ma Qingyang pointed at Li Qian with a smirk on his face, "As expected of Director Li."

Lao Ma is such a shrewd person, and he is especially good at chicken soup. He still can't understand the significance of Li Qian's setting up this scene.
