Chapter 23 Booting upInvested 1500 million yuan in "Charlotte's Troubles" and the system was upgraded again. Cashback ratio: Face value: 89 Skills: Screenwriting (max) Acting (entry level) Directing (not entry level) Singing (not entry level)... Cash back amount: 1028w Total cashback amount: 1248w (will be upgraded again when the total cashback amount reaches million) Upgrade reward: one skill lottery Seeing various skills on the lucky draw wheel, directing MAX, acting MAX, changing temperament, physique MAX... Except for the previously acquired screenwriting skills being removed, everything else remains the same as last time. Now that I am about to star in a movie, the best reward would be a MAX performance or a variety of temperaments. The MAX performance means playing whatever role you want like that role. The ever-changing temperament can make your temperament more closely match the temperament of the role you are playing, which means you can play whatever role you want like that role. The difference between the two skills is that one is method-based and the other is experience-based. "Ding, get the Director MAX skill", and finally the big turntable stopped on Director MAX. At this moment, countless points of knowledge flooded into Yang Hao's mind.
Directing is a comprehensive skill, which involves not only shooting techniques, lighting, photography, and on-site scheduling, but also script interpretation, how actors perform, makeup styling, and post-production editing. With the help of director MAX, Yang Hao discovered that his acting skills had improved from entry-level to mastery. There is a saying in the industry that a good director is also a good actor. Judging from the system skill reward effect, this does make sense. No wonder so many actresses like to find directors to guide their acting skills, and there seems to be nothing wrong with that. Suddenly Yang Hao realized a problem. At this time, the system gave him a director skill. Was it to let him learn from Director Jiang's guidance of Lu Chuan in the Charlotte crew? The opening ceremony was held in Hengdian, with incense burning, sacrifices and red envelopes being distributed. During the incense burning and sacrifice, Yang Hao and the male and female protagonists Shen Tengmali, director Yan Fei and Peng Damo stood in the middle, taking the C position for the photo, while the others were scattered on both sides. I don’t know if it’s because all the actors in the crew are so good at it that they dare not refuse the call, or if it’s because they wanted to get a bonus envelope for the start of filming, but almost all the crew members, from actors to behind the scenes, were present. Yang Hao looked at the cast and found no surprises. Except for the actor who played Yuan Hua being replaced by Yang Hao, the other roles were still played by the original cast. Shen Teng, Mary, Ai Lun, and Chang Yuan all came from Happy Twist. Li Ping and Li Liqun are veteran actors with great acting skills. Neither of these two groups of people relies on their looks to make a living, which makes the handsome man and beautiful woman Wang Zhi and Yang Hao stand out. Shen Teng and Ma Li are responsible for the comedy of Happy Twist, Wang Zhi and Yang Hao are responsible for the looks, and veteran actors such as Li Liqun and Li Ping are responsible for the acting skills. Seeing the current lineup configuration, Yang Hao nodded with satisfaction, and became more convinced that "Charlotte's Troubles" would be a hit. However, at the moment, only Yang Hao, who has the perspective of a time traveler, knows that the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" will be popular. The other actors simply have no better choices. If there is a crew of the level of "Shanghai Fortress" at this time, even if the role is smaller, most of them will probably give up the crew of "Charlotte's Troubles". The best example in his previous life is that Song Tie chose "The Son-in-Law" and gave up "Sito". An actor's success depends on luck, it's not just talk. - The opening ceremony was completed in a few hours in the morning and the filming officially started in the afternoon. Yan Fei and Peng Damu, who were directing for the first time, were both nervous and excited. They were working hard to direct the assistant director to set up the camera. Just as the two were thinking about how to adjust the camera position, Yang Hao came over. Yang Hao said directly: "Move this camera back ten centimeters, put this one directly at the back, and that one..." Yang Hao's words made the assistant director who was fiddling with the camera look confused. The fact that Yang Hao was an investor had already spread among the crew. On one side were the director's words, and on the other side were the investor's words, the assistant director who was caught in the middle didn't know what to do. "You fucking...", Yan Fei spit out half of the fragrant words, but when he realized that it was Yang Hao who was speaking, he immediately swallowed the words back into his stomach.
"Go quickly and do what Yang Hao says," Yan Fei shouted at the assistant director. Although he didn't know why Yang Hao wanted to interfere in the director's affairs, he didn't want to argue. He would install the camera and debug it to see the effect, and then use facts to slap the other party in the face. Five minutes later, Yan Fei sat in front of the monitor, watching the assistant director's trial positioning in the camera, which was fair and just right. I didn’t expect the camera position set by Yang Hao would be so effective! Seeing this scene, Yan Fei's face was full of disbelief. After being stunned for a long time, he turned around and said to Yang Hao beside him: "Boss Yang, you can also direct?" "I know a little, a little," Yang Hao waved his hand and said modestly. "That's great. With Mr. Yang's help, I can be much more relaxed. Do you want Mr. Yang to be an assistant director? When there's no scene for you, he can just watch from the side and give you some suggestions." Yan Fei didn't care much about Yang Hao's knowledge of camera arrangement. A director needs to have many skills, and just knowing how to arrange the camera is of no use. "Okay, I'll give you too many suggestions by then, please don't be annoying, Director Yan." This is the first time that Yang Hao uses the director skill given by the system. It is quite interesting. Yang Hao now really wants to try how to direct. The first time, you always get the taste. It was because of this mentality that the crew members discovered something strange. Yang Hao, who played Yuan Hua, would sit next to the director's monitor whenever he had no scenes to perform. He would say something to the director from time to time, and occasionally the two would have a heated argument, but it seemed that director Yan Fei was convinced every time. After these few days, Yan Fei has gone from being excited about being a director in the beginning to feeling depressed now. Now he has the illusion that he is the assistant director. Every time Yang Hao says "cut" beside him, he passes the message on, like a mouthpiece. The most important thing is that after shooting according to what Yang Hao said, the final effect was actually better. Is this fair? After taking a shot, Yan Fei exhaled, stood up, and slowly said to Yang Hao, "Boss Yang, let me discuss something with you. Can you stay in Peng Damu's group for a few days and give him some guidance? Don't always pick on one person and bully him." When saying this, Yan Fei really felt like crying but had no tears. Now he just felt that being a director like this was really meaningless. "Charlotte's Troubles" was divided into two groups and started filming at the same time, so Yang Hao listened to director Yan Fei's suggestion and went to director Peng Damu's group. A few days later, the same thing happened again. "Boss Yang, why don't you stay with Director Yan Fei for a few days? Or make an agreement and stay for three days, okay?" When saying this, Peng Damu also had a look of wanting to cry but having no tears, and he also understood why Yan Fei asked Yang Hao to come to his side. "Okay, okay, I'm not going anywhere. I'll just be a good and obedient actor." Yang Hao was also a little helpless, he just wanted to try out the skills he had just acquired, but now that the itch has worn off, he decided to just be an actor. I don’t know if it’s because Yang Hao gave some guidance to Yan Fei and Peng Damu in the early stages, but Yang Hao could clearly feel that their shooting speed was much faster than at the beginning.
