You Made Me a Superstar Chapter 16

   Chapter 16 Contradiction (Part 1)

  People have an instinctive fear of the dark.

  In the ancient times of slash-and-burn farming, after the sun went down, the breath of death began to permeate.

   Countless beasts and unknown fear companions roared and devoured the shivering ancestors, and many people died in the darkness of the night.

   This is an emotion etched into your genes.

  When Zhou Yang went to the mine for the first time, he was fearful deep in his heart, and at the same time had a suffocating and claustrophobic feeling.

   This is a kind of unease that comes from the depths of the soul.

  The mines are divided into three categories, vertical shafts, inclined shafts, level lanes...

  The vertical shaft hangs from the ground and is the size of a well.

   There is a slightly rusted iron frame on the entrance of the mine, with several cables tied to the frame, and an elevator-like lifting platform hangs below the cable.

   This platform is called the cage.

  If the safety standards are strictly followed, the cage should be the same as the elevator, with walls and iron nets on all sides to prevent falling from high altitudes. If it is safer, a few cables must be installed to pull it to form a double safety system.

   Of course, it is impossible for a private mine to follow strict specifications. Even its four sides are not covered by any shield, only four cables and a few thick wooden boards provide grip and support, and people just descend along the cables.

   When going down the well, due to the sudden change of air pressure, people's eardrums are often shaken and buzzing, and even an indescribable pain will arise, and Zhou Yang is even worse.

  When Zhou Yang went to the mine for the first time, his stomach kept twitching and he vomited out everything he ate that morning.

After    all vomited out, his physical condition was a little better.

   "We're going to shoot down the well?"

   "Well, going down the well."

   "How deep is this mine?"

   "It's not very deep, only about 400 meters."

   "What? What did you say? It's only over 400 meters!"

   "The well I worked in before was more than a thousand meters deep..."

   Early morning.

   The first ray of sunlight hit the ground.

   The crew of "The Bottom of the Mine" finally started.

   Feng Kai saw the scene of the first scene, and his eyes were fixed on the mouth of the mine.

   His face changed greatly!

   He was shocked and angry at the rusted iron shelves and the swaying cables.

  The shock is that this guy Zhou Yang is out of his mind, he really wants to go down to shoot!

   The angry thing is that this thing has no safety factor at first sight. What if it breaks down halfway?

   It's just a bad movie, do you need to work so hard?

   It has only been a few days since he came here, and he heard that the mine next door seemed to have collapsed. Although he did not hear the news of the deaths, who knows how much internal information was blocked?

   "If there is a problem in this place, how can we escape?" Feng Kai stared at Zhou Yang, and after thinking of all the possibilities, he took a breath.

   His life was much more precious than Zhou Yang's.

   Zhou Yang will die if he dies!

   But he shoulders the hope of making domestic films in the future, so he can't explain it here!

   "..." Zhou Yang stared at the well for a while, then fell into a long silence.

   He seems to be weighing the pros and cons.

"Director Zhou, we can dig a hole by ourselves, there's really no need to go down, and there are many ways to shoot. Isn't it easy to choose a scenic spot? Shooting a movie is not about life, if something happens, everyone will be responsible for it. I can't afford this responsibility!" Feng Kai saw Zhou Yang's appearance, and subconsciously leaned closer to remind him in a low voice.

   "..." Zhou Yang still didn't answer Feng Kai's words, but turned to look at the rest of the film crew.

   They all seemed to be hesitant to say anything. Although they didn't say anything, their expressions were extremely resistant.

   Obviously, no one wants to go down.

  It is a very dangerous thing to shoot on the spot in the mine.

taking off own life!

  No one likes to die.

   "More than 400 meters! Even if there is a little accident, we will all be buried alive!"

   "I know this is the mine you carefully selected, but who can guarantee that this accident will not happen?"

   "Furthermore, it's not the next well, it's going to go down for several days to shoot..."

   Feng Kai continued to whisper in front of Zhou Yang, persuading Zhou Yang to dispel this idea.

   Zhou Yang closed his eyes.

   Finally nodded faintly.

   "Director Feng, then help me to shoot the plot on the ground first."

   "Okay! That's right!"

   "All groups prepare!"

   "ACTION!"

   As Feng Kai's gesture fell, the first act of the movie finally started.

  The first scene is actually in the normal working area of ​​the coal mine, focusing on three characters.

  Tang Chaoyang, Song Jinming, Zhang Genbao.

  The content of the shooting is also very simple...

   is a scene where three people pass a cigarette to each other.

   The three actors, Zhong Facai, Zhao Zhen, and Chen Shuangbao, did so in the mine itself. This is not difficult for the actors, just perform in their true colors...

   It's more like recording a video than making a movie.

   is just a little bigger in comparison.

pity……

   Maybe because of the relationship with the camera, several people are not in the right state.

   Outside the lens.

"Pass!"

"Pass!"

   "Yes! Yes, yes!"

  Feng Kai wore a small hat and made various gestures.

   He seemed a little inattentive, and he gave all the filming scenes that he could pass, and even the most basic shooting mistakes and actor status problems were too lazy to correct, and he just finished shooting in one shot.

   As for good or bad?

  Who cares about you!

   He doesn't care how the film is, and he doesn't sign his name anyway.

   And to his heart's content, he felt that this was a film made by the coal boss, and he didn't even think it was called a movie.

   "Director Feng, I don't think this move is appropriate. It seems a little nervous to make a fortune. I think it should be adjusted..."

   "Does not affect."

   "I think Shuangbao's eyes are not right, a little rigid..."

   "It doesn't matter, I think this look is quite right, very characteristic..."

"I think……"

   "Director Zhou, please let me go, we are looking for a shooting angle, and, when we are shooting, try not to disturb us, otherwise it will affect the shooting state..."

   Zhou Yang watched for a while in front of the camera.

   He felt that it was very wrong to shoot like this, and finally couldn't help but ask a lot of questions.

  Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to him except the director Feng Kai who would occasionally deal with a sentence or two.

   There were too many questions, and over time, even Feng Kai ignored him.

   He just stood there, and was even driven far away by Feng Kai because he was in the way, and was eventually driven out of the shooting area.

   He looked at the crew.

   He is like an outsider isolated by the crew and has a lot to say in his heart.

   His face turned red!

   He subconsciously felt that Feng Kai was wrong.

   However, he could not refute.

   A layman who doesn't know how to shoot is pointing fingers at the crew, won't it affect the shooting of the crew?

   He bowed his head.

evening.

  The crew is over.

  The staff went down the mountain early.

  The weather was too cold for them to withstand the severe cold on the mountain.

  The filming progressed very quickly. In just the first day, some scenes in the mine were almost finished.

   Zhou Yang didn't know how it was filmed, he only knew that the first act of the movie didn't have any NG.

  The mountain wind is really cold.

   But not so much that people can't bear it.

   Zhou Yang did not go down the mountain, and also rejected Feng Kai's proposal to go to the surrounding KTV to drink and sing to relax.

   He has little interest in these.

   He felt a little uncomfortable.

   Zhou Yang is probably a twisted person.

   He either doesn't do anything, or he tries his best to do it to the extreme.

otherwise……

   I will be very sorry and annoyed.

   He felt that there was something wrong with the content of the filming today, and he was eager to see the situation of the film.

pity……

   He couldn't see.

  Feng Kai refused on the grounds that the samples needed to be edited and the semi-finished products had no good reason to look good.

   "Director Zhou, I think we didn't shoot well..."

   "Director Zhou... I also think that I was a little nervous just now, we are not like that normally..."

   Chen Shuangbao finished smoking the last cigarette, then walked to Zhou Yang with a slightly embarrassed expression.

   Zhao Zhen on the other side also came over. After reviewing the content of the shooting, he was also very dissatisfied.

   They can actually detect the state of the shooting and the state of the weekdays.

  Although they also felt that the film might not be released, just watch it casually, but they still felt unnatural under the camera, burdened and nervous at the same time.

   Zhou Yang did not answer their words.

   He walked silently towards the edge of the mine in their sight.

   The sunset glowed half the sky red.

   He stared at the deep mine.

   just stared so closely.

   In his mind, he vaguely recalled the scenes of "Blind Well" in the movie and the expressions of the actors.

  I think of what I photographed today...

   It's a long way!

   is too far, too far.

   He bowed his head.

   His heart gradually sank.

   sank for a long, long time...

   The next day, it was noon before Feng Kai walked up the mountain.

   They had a blast at KTV yesterday.

   sang, danced, and invited a few professional women to accompany the drinks, and had a great time.

When    came back, it was already early morning.

   When they came to the mountain, they saw Zhou Yang standing at the intersection.

   Feng Kai smiled and greeted Zhou Yang subconsciously.

   "Director Zhou, came up so early? Haha..."

   Zhou Yang looked at him silently and did not respond.

   He just stood silently like a log.
