February 9th, New Year's Eve.
This year, Chu Yinlong rejected all the invitations during the Spring Festival, and took Jiang Dao back to Xiang's house.
Although Jiang Dao has already passed the Ming Road with Xiang Yuancheng and Lu Xiaorong, but this meeting is the real meeting with the parents. It also coincides with the Chinese New Year, and the meaning is even more complicated.
Lu Zhengrong also brought a pair of children, the old lady of the Lu family, and her husband who had just finished the closed experiment, together with Xiang Yunru, the family was rarely reunited.
Jiang Dao was not easily nervous, so he greeted several parents generously, and greeted Chu Yinlong's cousins.
Because of the mess that happened in the Qin family before, everyone knows his background. When Tianqin Capital was liquidated, Xiang Yuancheng stood behind Jiang Dao, so no one asked Jiang Dao much. For family affairs, I only talk to him about work progress.
After chatting with his family, Jiang Dao found out that Lu Zhengrong's husband, Liu Wenxi, actually studies nuclear fusion. It sounds like he doesn't fit in with this family, but he is actually very respected.
The old lady of the Lu family is a fashionable and open-minded old man. Apart from being very concerned about when Jiang Dao and Chu Yinlong will get married, she has no resistance to their relationship.
"Xiao Jiang, I'm getting old, and I'm looking forward to seeing my grandchildren get married. You have to get things done quickly, so I'm happy!" The old lady held Jiang Dao's hand and said with a smile, "I don't know what the three poor children of my family think. They are all grown up and don't look for friends. I don't think there is anything to look forward to..."
The cousin raised his head from the tablet and pushed down his glasses: "Grandma, you also arranged a blind date for me, but I don't see anyone for a month or two as soon as I work on the project, so don't delay her sister."
The old lady glared at him: "I didn't see you brought back a female colleague from the Tiantian project!"
The cousin said indifferently: "... There are only two girls in our research institute, both of whom are married, and their children are about to go to elementary school. Where can I bring my female colleagues back?"
Seeing his younger sister gloating by the side, he hurriedly changed the subject: "So there are so many men in their construction company, and she hasn't brought a boyfriend back."
The cousin got angry immediately, and rolled up her sleeves: "Come on, I want to fight with you!"
Cousin second counseled: "My hand is for holding a dropper, which is different from your hand for carrying cement. You have the ability to fight with my cousin!"
After a few words, the two of them started chattering again. They didn't look like outstanding young people in their twenties, but more like three-year-old children who haven't grown up.
Jiang Dao quietly asked Chu Yinlong: "I thought your brothers and sisters would have something to do with the entertainment and fashion circles. Why do you hear that both of them are engaged in other industries?"
Chu Yinlong smiled and said: "Because I was acting when I was young, my aunt watched me get up at 5:30 every day to practice, and I had to practice my lines when I got home from school. , when you change your teeth, you have to wear braces to prevent deformities...they are afraid, and they are determined not to enter the film and television industry, determined to be scientists."
When my cousin heard it, he pushed his glasses again: "It's because you are poor at study. I think acting affects your studies. My dad will definitely fix it, so I gave up."
The cousin put him down: "Forget it! You loved fried chicken so much when you were a child, and you are so fat that no one wants to act."
Cousin: "It's like you don't like fried chicken! You still like to drink milk tea!"
Chu Yinlong leaned into Jiang Dao's ear and said, "They also like to show off fried chicken and milk tea in front of me. Although I had already returned to vulgarity at that time, I was still practicing with my hair, and I still had to control my diet. I was so greedy by them. If you get angry, I'll beat you up."
Cousin: ...
cousin:…
Mrs. Lu took Jiang Dao's hand and smiled: "So, when will you two have your wedding?"
Jiang Dao held his forehead speechlessly.
This old lady, why was she brought so far up and down, remember the wedding?
…
The whole family got together for a New Year's Eve dinner, and on the next New Year's Day, they wished each other well, gave each other gifts, and then went back to their own small families.
Until the end of February, the cast of "Ghost Face Bottle" was confirmed, and the makeup photo shooting was completed as scheduled.
On March 6th, the movie officially started.
Due to the season of the scene, the film will shoot the exterior part first, and then move to the interior to shoot close-ups and close-ups. The first stop of the location was on a snow mountain at the northernmost tip of China.
In early March, the snow here is still heavy, but the temperature is not as low as in severe winter, which is the most suitable time for shooting. If it is postponed for another two weeks, the snow here may become vulnerable due to rising temperatures, which may easily trigger avalanches.
Fortunately, only part of the exterior scenes arranged by the crew required long shots taken by drones, and the rest of the close-ups and close-ups of skiing would be completed in the indoor ski resort, compressing the itinerary of the snow mountain exterior scenes to within a week.
"The snow layer is in good condition. The sun is not out today. The temperature is moderate and we can shoot." The experts hired by the crew gave suggestions after measuring the various data of the snow layer, "but it is best to finish shooting before noon. Three in the afternoon After that point, if the snow state can be maintained, you can still work overtime.”
Chu Yinlong nodded, and confirmed to the security team again: "Is the block set up?"
The person in charge of security has a serious face: "I have confirmed it three times, no problem. According to the planned route, our people have scanned the situation under the snow and can confirm that there is no danger of snow getting stuck."
"Okay." Chu Yinlong got up, took off the coat that was draped outside, and greeted Jiang Dao, "Let's go, ready to start shooting."
In the plot, this skiing chase in the snow mountain was caused by an accident. Therefore, the clothes worn by the actors are not regular ski suits, and the skis have also been adjusted in shape, disguised as fence steel plates that have been temporarily dismantled according to the plot.
Wearing such equipment and sliding all the way down the mountain, one can imagine how cold it will be.
As soon as Jiang Dao took off his coat, he already felt the biting cold wind.
Chu Yinlong was also standing beside him in a thin suit, reminding him: "Don't forget to slide along the blue marking line, they have surveyed this section of the slope."
Ejima nodded, moved his body a bit, and bent over to buckle the skis on his feet.
Seeing that all three drones were in place, the assistant director signaled to start filming.
Arriving at the starting point of filming by helicopter, Chu Yinlong jumped off the snow **** first, followed by Jiang Dao, and after a while, the ski stand-in who played the role of the villain's pursuers appeared on the stage. In a few seconds, it fell to a gentle **** surrounded by the block.
In the bitter cold wind, wearing only a warm suit, rushing down from the top of the mountain at a speed of more than forty kilometers per hour... Jiang Dao was almost frozen to death. Chu Yinlong was similar, with a layer of frost on his eyebrows and eyelashes, looking like a little old man.
The staff waiting at the finish line immediately fetched warm water and handed it to the two of them, but Chu Yinlong said tremblingly, "Hurry up and take a picture of the two of us. When we take close-ups indoors later, we can refer to the shape."
After taking the photos, Jiang Dao and Chu Yinlong got into the 20-degree heat pump thermostat parked next to them. After blowing their bodies to heat up, they put on winter clothes and waited for the crew helicopter to pick them up at the finish line.
The long-range shot does not have high requirements for details, and there are generally no problems, so it was passed in one pass.
However, due to the many terrains involved in this pursuit, the crew had to change to several hillsides to shoot, and finally use close-ups and close-ups to edit and connect them to show the thrill and excitement of this snow-capped mountain chase.
What everyone didn't expect was that just this afternoon, when the crew was planning to change to a **** that had already been surveyed, they actually witnessed a massive avalanche.
Fortunately, the crew has not approached, but is stationed on a safe high ground next to it. But even so, it was almost buried by the snow dust raised by the avalanche, and the entire station seemed to have experienced a blizzard.
Standing on the cliff, Jiang Dao looked at the rolling hillside of snow wolves not far away, listened to the deafening roar, felt the tremor of the ground under his feet, and hooked the corners of his mouth: "In the face of natural disasters, people are really too fragile. Once it gets involved, I'm afraid it will be smashed to pieces."
Chu Yinlong breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought you wanted to challenge me."
Jiang Dao laughed out loud: "I like excitement, but I'm not crazy. I still cherish my life. The exciting projects I want to play are either under my own control or have a formal process. You When did I really commit suicide?"
The avalanche didn't last long. When everything was settled, the snow mountain expert came to him with a smile on his face: "It's fine if the avalanche happened earlier. It will collapse again. However, the downhill route needs to be re-surveyed, and the large pieces of snow may be hard and may need to be broken up manually. In addition, many trees have been broken just now, which may also be potentially dangerous."
"Well, you can figure it out, there is plenty of time." Chu Yinlong said, "The safety of shooting is the first priority, and other things can be discussed."
This section of the snow **** is temporarily unavailable, so the crew temporarily changed the plan and called the helicopter to take the personnel and equipment to the next section of the snow **** to shoot the follow-up shots first.
There were no accidents this time, and the shooting was completed very smoothly.
That night, Jiang Dao was sitting outside the tent with hot juice in his arms, looked up at the stars, and asked, "Director Mu can use special effects instead of location, why do you insist on shooting on location? The cost of shooting in such a place is not much lower than doing special effects, and you have to wait for the weather and other light, isn’t it troublesome?”
Chu Yinlong smiled and said: "It's not a matter of cost, it's...my own preference. Although I know that the current indoor and outdoor scene models and special effects can be made very realistic, there will still be a lot of reflections from the environment on the actors. different."
As he said that, he called up the photos taken by the staff before the two from his mobile phone: "Look at the feeling of snow foam sticking to the eyebrows and eyelashes. If you haven't experienced it, you may ignore it. The feedback given by the final work will be Distortion. Also, you are wearing a suit and skiing down the mountain, the details of the movements where you are frozen and your eyes are dazed can only be played more realistically after you have experienced it.”
Jiang Dao looked at Chu Yinlong with his chin in his hands, but said nothing.
Chu Yinlong raised his eyebrows: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Jiang Dao smiled with crooked eyebrows: "I just like to see you stick to your ideals, which are more dazzling than the stars in the sky."
