Chapter 197: Start shooting

The People's Republic (pep1es-k) bar, miles from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and less than a mile from Harvard University, is a bar popular among young students in the surroundings. At this time, it was rented by the crew of the "T--Team" , Shooting a scene on the first page of a thick script.
In the bar that was supposed to be bright during the day, it was set by the lighting engineer to be as dim as at night. The bald white bartender behind the bar was wiping the glass. There were young guests yelling and playing darts, sitting at the round table. The guests drank and chatted with a warm atmosphere, and of course they were all mass actors.
The positions of the two cameras are placed on the front and diagonally opposite corners of the bar respectively. Varie-Fest, wearing a bat, controls the front one, and Wang Yang stands next to the viewfinder; the other is Harry. -George is in control, and the lighting crew and other film crews are all on their own. Joshua looked at Alexis sitting at the bar with a look of dementia.
She had a long brown long and elegant shawl, her forehead was covered by big bangs, her slender willow eyebrows, blue eyes, and a pretty round face with a smile, she was a good girl; Natalie sat beside Her length has been cut into loose shorts, and it is also like a petite and cute girl; there is a head up next to it, which is silly like Jay Baruchel just waking up.
"" With the order, the three looked casually holding glasses, and Natalie said, "What will we find, Boston has the most? Nerds and geniuses ..."
The play is about the fact that Team T is losing a big player. When the three of them are drinking at the bar, they are accosted by Jeff Ma and others who are also drinking here, and then they have a dispute. At this time, the white classmate Jeff Ma Fatzi who thought they were "ordinary nerds" came over, he shyly talked to the talking Natalie: "Hey, can I ask you for a drink?"
Natalie turned his head and glanced at him, raised his hand slightly, and said casually: "I have a plus and minus question to ask you, how are you?" This is not a close-up shot, the camera monitor screen also appeared. Alexis and Jay, who looked indifferent and did not wait for the fat man to answer, Natalie quickly read the line that she had practiced many times in rehearsal: "+ 7 + 4-5 ++ 4- + 9 ++ 6 How much is -4 + -8-7 + 4- + 6? "
As soon as she said that, she couldn't help but secretly relieved, no one said that ng finally got the line Wang Yang that troublesome ghost
The fat man with glasses opened his mouth innocently. This is a very simple math problem. A child can get it by counting his fingers, but that is the case of a literal problem. She said too fast and too much. He couldn't remember it at all: "Uh, can I say slower?" Natalie didn't bother to look at him, and looked back lightly. "Do you say something to the clock, slow down? Unless it's broken."
Alexis and Jay both smiled intriguingly, and took a drink from the glass.
"." Wu Yanzu, who had been watching, said suddenly. Natalie on the other side of the camera suddenly raised her eyebrows. When she turned her head, she heard a voice very quickly and said: "I also have a question to ask you,-equals How much? "Natalie turned her head and looked at Wu Yanzu who was anti-sneering, with a funny smile on her lips, said:". "
"CuT" Wang Yang shouted to stop the crew, and everyone looked at him suddenly, Joshua smeared, and wondered: "What happened?" Wang Yang looked at Wu Yanzu and said, "Daniel , There is something missing in your expression. You know that Jeff ’s sentence is indeed to humiliate this group of people, but he actually has some pride and arrogance, because he is smart, because there are two beautiful women sitting there, and a book stay."
In the role setting, Jeff Ma is such a proud person. He joined the group to play card counting initially to prove his ability, but after gradually learning and actual combat, he realized the importance of the team and also realized To that friendship and loyalty, there is no cynical but still proud.
"No one should tell Jeff that I said him that way." Wang Yang said again. Everyone smiled slightly. Ma Kai was the technical advisor for the crew shooting with the team. It was just that there was no card counting in this scene, so he was not there. On the spot, knocking on the scoreboard, Wang Yang shouted softly; "bsp; Wu Yanzu readjusted his expression, and there was a smile on the anti-mocking face, and he said quickly:" I also have a question to ask you,-how much ? "Natalie smiled:". "Her expression slowed down again, and her tone spoke quickly." I have a question. If you are participating in a game show, there are three doors for you to choose to open. One of them has a car behind it. Two fans are goats ... "
The slower she spoke, the last time her neck seemed to be broken, and she smiled and said: "Director, I have forgotten the next words" Alexis, Wu Yanzu and other people also laughed, Wang Yang Helplessly spread his hands, shouted with a smile: "Who gave her the script"
There is no complicated movement in this scene, and the camera is very fixed, but it is not easy to complete at all, because the lines of lines are difficult to remember, and they must be spoken quickly and clearly; at the same time, the characters ’subtle expressions The changes are almost one sentence at a time. Although it has been rehearsed for a long time before the shooting, it is avoided that ng is less when shooting, and there will be a lot of ng.
This is an unexpected thing, and Wang Yang does not expect to be able to shoot the whole scene in one breath. That is impossible. Even if a quiz breath is smooth, this is not a stage play. There are clips in the movie.
"The script is here" Joshua believes in the "seize all the opportunities that make her have a good impression on you" taught by her sister's boyfriend, diligently and honestly took Wang Yang's script and walked up to Natalie, Believe in "It's cool to be cool, but smile to her more." He smiled at Alexis next to him and walked back. Alexis's doubts are more serious, this guy seems really strange ...
Natalie opened the script and looked at it carefully, her lips murmured in memory, and Wu Yanzu also took the opportunity to look at the lines of her script. After a while, Natalie nodded and said, "Come and come again"
"" With the order, the film crew members such as Vale-Fister resumed their work. Natalie continued to look up at the standing Wu Yanzu, and said quickly: "I have a question ... The other two fans are goats. , You choose a door, assuming it is number one, the host who knows what is behind the door opens the number three door, followed by a goat, he then asks you 'Do you want to change your mind, choose door number two?' "
Wu Yanzu immediately said: "Change." Natalie immediately said: "Why? What is the benefit of changing your choice? The first door is a car, he is trying to trick you" Wu Yanzu said with a slightly disdainful expression, then said: "You are playing me. This is the Monte-Hall paradox. There are three situations. I chose goat No. 1 and host goat No. 2. The transfer will drive away. I chose goat No. 2. The host chose. Goat No. 1, the conversion will drive the car; I chose the car, the host took a sheep, I failed, but the chance of a successful conversion is /. Why not? "
Wang Yang held his chin and watched Natalie continue to ask the next game theory puzzle "Tiger Paradox" performance, still quick questions and quick answers, without any time to rest. Obviously, the audience in front of the big screen will not be able to hear clearly, they have no time to think, or even to react, but he does not need them to understand, as long as it creates an atmosphere, "this group of people are geniuses"
At the same time, I have some preliminary feelings about the characters' character and "coolness". But it must be spoken in plain language, and the words should be clear, so that the audience will be interested in entering the drama quickly, and feel that they are thinking. It does n’t matter if they understand, as long as the protagonists ’final sentence definitely tells them an answer, It is exciting, not too wordy, which is also very important.
"% #% A ... I'm sorry", "Tiger's chance ... forget", "netbsp; These few minutes of play are ng nonstop, and finally more than the line ng, which is caused by the line. The performance was disconnected, and Wang Yang shouted cuT again. Natalie over there was about to sweat. The number of ng times in this period was more than the sum of "Juno". She took a breath and was deeply hit. Authentic: "I'm sorry" Wang Yang smiled and clapped his hands, saying: "Let's rest for a while"
After a while of laughter, the film crews such as Vale Fister and Harry George stopped working and sat down at the round table of the bar to rest and chat. The crowd of actors continued to be like tourists, Natalie said frantically. "Ah, these lines are too difficult to remember. Why don't I know that T's people are so powerful?" Wu Yanzu, who was sitting in the chair, took a breath. "My brain is also confused."
"Fortunately, I don't have any lines." Alexis happily patted the collarbone, Joshua's eyes widened and his heart jumped; Jay Baruchel said his thoughts with a smile : "I wish there were more lines."
"Man," Wang Yang came to Wu Yanzu with a smile, and suddenly punched him in the chest with a fist. The guarded Wu Yanzu immediately opened a fierce fist with a fist, and returned with a punch, Wang Yang caught His small arm, right fist went straight to the elbow.
Regarding this kind of discussion anytime and anywhere, Ali and other people have quickly become accustomed to it. This Wu Chi director will fight all morning when he is free. Glancing at the two people who were fighting, Natalie continued to read the script, flipped a few more times, looked at the lines behind the real card counting plot, and said: "Yang, I have a question, this seems not to be something I should consider Thing, but I want to know. "
Wang Yang stopped his fist and stopped Wu Yanzu to continue to watch the script. He sat down on the bar chair and smiled and asked, "Why? What do you think is wrong?" Everyone smiled and looked at Natalie. Shuya couldn't look away.
"Well, it seems that many lines are quite complicated, and we can't figure it out at all." Natalie shrugged and smiled, Wang Yang said with a smile: "You mean that the audience will see the question marks? This It ’s my plan, they do n’t need to understand, the point is not here.

Natalie nodded and said, "Actually what I want to ask is that I watched a lot of gambling films," Casino "," The King of Gamblers "... compared to them," T--Team " It's so special. It's the gambling part. It looks very professional and real skills, a lot of terms and details ... "Wang Yang interrupted her with a smile and said," So what do you think looks good? "
"We are more focused and thoughtful, and the whole story is also very attractive. It's great." Natalie turned her hand over the script and heard Wang Yang asking, "What do you think?" Alexis replied with a smile: "I Not so many ideas, but is it bad to be different? "Wu Yanzu said:" This is not a Hollywood gamble, and I can't say it. "......
"Yes, it's interesting." Natalie raised her head, and her doubts were still unresolved. She asked with a smile: "The content of these lines is impressive, but if it is not a script word that can be read repeatedly, the audience will not Will it feel boring? It's always these hard-to-understand things. So how are you going to make a ... temperament movie? Is there something similar? I want to see. "
Wang Yang smiled suddenly and shook his head: "I don't know. I don't think there was any similar before. I can't find it anyway. Natalie, you know the movie was finally born in the editing room. You now ask me what the movie is. What? I ca n’t answer. But I think ... "He shot with a right hand gesture, blowing the invisible smoke on his index finger, and laughed:" Guys, still that sentence, a cool movie. "
In his understanding, the so-called cool is that kind of cool and cool, each role has its own role, through details and lines, show off their professional and genius show, the focus is to form an impression. Whether it is card counting, team playing in casinos, detective and anti-detective aspects, as well as the characters ’individual talents, like being proficient in multiple languages, they are all things that dazzle in detail.
"Have you ever seen Hong Kong's gambling?" Wang Yang asked suddenly, and Natalie thought about it, but she was not impressed. "No, I like Wang Jiawei in Hong Kong movies. Is this Hong Kong's gambling style?" "Alixis also shook his head and said no, Wu Yanzu said:" I have seen several "Gambler" and "Gambler", but it seems that the style is different? "
Wang Yang didn't answer this question for the time being, but said his opinion: "The style of Hong Kong gambling is to focus on gambling. The strange gambling skills, some of which are even out of reality, but the gambling tables of Hong Kong movies are always It ’s very cool, magical, and chic. It ’s a picture of gambling; the center of gravity of Hollywood gambling movies is basically placed in the story of
why gamble
, and then the heart of the characters is tapped. Never stayed, it is a thick line. "
Wu Yanzu nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, I feel that way too. Hollywood gambling doesn't seem to understand gambling skills." In fact, he really wanted to say that Hollywood has no gambling. Natalie felt strange when she heard it, and asked, "Why?"
"I don't know." Wang Yang shrugged. He couldn't understand the question at one time. Was it because American audiences didn't like watching "professional" gambling? But he thinks it should not be. No one likes crappy and hates professionalism. The more professional the more exciting and fascinating. This aspect is reflected in various doctors and crime-solving episodes. Of course, regardless of TV series and movies, the premise is The story is beautiful and the characters are wonderful.
Especially the reason for the length of the film, it is impossible to introduce all the card skills. This is not a popular science show or a documentary. There is a degree in it, especially there is no opponent. The main plot of "T-Team" is also detective and anti-detective. The story of Team T against the entire Las Vegas.
But there is no doubt that Hollywood movies that are worthy of "gambling" do not pay attention to the gambling itself, there is no professional and details, why? If you think about it from the perspective of the producer, there are some clues. Thinking of these, looking at Natalie and others, Wang Yang smiled and said: "From a commercial point of view, there has always been no market for gambling in Hollywood, and no one is willing to explore. The producers do not want to take risks, it is better Take the money to make a romantic movie. "
"When you are not a commercial movie, but to explore human nature and emotions; or you are just a small-cost movie, if you want to win, the creative ideas will often go to the depth of the story, and you don't want to put space on any gambling skills; high When it comes to cost, you can do a lot of big moves and big scenes, and then think, what is a small gaming table? "
Wang Yang said that he couldn't help thinking of the future "7: Royal Casino" that he saw in his mind. The movie is called "pure Hollywood gambling". In fact, he has studied so many Hollywood gambling films, and the intensity of the details is the most sufficient. Part, but relatively speaking, the gambling aspect is still somewhat simple. But it does not mean that he fully supports Hong Kong's gambling films. The one is the Hong Kong film tactics of the era. It is not suitable for the current world. Even Hong Kong is outdated.
Exaggeration and ability are not professional. "T-Team" wants a dazzling and real, high IQ brand skill. It wants the pursuit of details and atmosphere in Hong Kong films and the wonderful stories of Hollywood commercials.
"But I want to pursue a taste ..." Wang Yang smiled and stood up. Natalie became more and more puzzled, and then he smiled: "If" T--Team "is classified as a gamble, then it is Unprecedented, Ha, let ’s play it, we want to shoot it into an insurmountable peak.
He spread his hands and smiled:
I do n’t know what it looks like on the big screen, but it will be cool, you know, it Will do."
This movie can be said to be a brand new experience for him. Unlike the past, this movie has no template, except that it is also adapted from "Las Vegas", it is completely different from "Decision Point", and it is not Traditional Hollywood gamble. But in the past, no matter what point or Texas Hold'em, everything is good, there has never been a movie of this appearance, who knows whether the audience likes it or not?
I always tried before I knew the result. Wang Yang walked over to the camera and said, "I can't guarantee that it must have any miracles, but at least it didn't follow those failed routes. So I chose the second gate, which is / won "Probability" said, he shouted loudly: "Whoever wait for you to watch the script, I will punch him with a punch"
"I'm waiting" Natalie gave him a provocative look and patted her cheek gently. Everyone knew he was joking, but they all read the script carefully and remembered the lines. After all, as an actor, no one wants to hear that "ng"
Wang Yang talked with Vale-Fister for a while, then picked up the microphone and yelled to continue the unfinished shooting just now
After all the people were ready, and after having a few expressions, the scene finally came to the last question. In the previous few problems of probability mathematics, Jeff-Ma ’s performance surprised all three of the T team, and at the same time, he had a huge interest in him. Jeff-Ma ’s memory of the mental arithmetic is magical, and the thinking logic is only Believe in mathematics without being affected by emotions, this is an excellent candidate to fill the gap of big players
"If you have to bet ~ EbookFREE.me ~ how can you win?" Natalie's eyes were full of smiles, and Alexis and Jay Baruchel also found prey-like smiles on their faces. . Suddenly hearing an unrelated question, Wu Yanzu thought for a moment and said, "There is no win in gambling."
"Very good" Natalie gave a playful smile and asked, "Which school are you from?" The fat classmates quickly laughed: "T" The three of them smiled at each other immediately, and Natalie murmured: "T, T ... ok" As she stood up, Ali and Jay followed, and Natalie, who had walked a few steps, turned back and asked, "Did you join any after-school club?"
Wu Yanzu chuckled softly, looking at other places, and said, "I have answered too many questions tonight." Natalie nodded knowingly, and said, "That's not there, but you will soon join a society." "Finally, the three went outside. The fat man asked aloud in doubt: "Hey, what do you mean? What community?" Alexis turned his head and smiled, "The community doing math problems."
"CuT" Wang Yang shouted, and he breathed a sigh of relief. The first scene was finally completed. He gave a thumbs up and smiled: "It's all done well."
Everyone immediately laughed and cheered. The whole bar was full of enthusiasm, and the members of the film crew immediately began to adjust the position of the camera, preparing to shoot the next set of shots.
