Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Heavy snowstorms that have been rare in many years have plagued the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in the past few days. All walks of life have been affected to varying degrees, and the entertainment industry has also been deeply affected.  For the crew of "Mei Lanfang", the heavy snowfall is even more regrettable. All they can say is "God is not kind to us."  The crew just finished filming at the Peace Hotel last week. Now they are filming the scenes of Mei Lanfang's performance in the United States in winter. They need to create a scene of heavy snowfall on the streets of New York. It was not snowing yet when filming.  Yu Mingxi also mentioned to Brother Chen Kai that he would wait a few days to shoot these scenes.  It's just that Brother Chen Kai didn't listen to Yu Mingxi's suggestion for the sake of filming progress.  10 snow-making machines were specially deployed to artificially snow the section of Dianchi Road to the Bund. A full ton of "artificial snow" was sprinkled throughout the scene.  It seems like a waste now. The artificial snow scene cost about hundreds of thousands. If we can wait a few days, I'm afraid we won't need the artificial snow scene.  The sudden heavy snow arrived a bit late for the crew of "Mei Lanfang".  Looking at the heavy snow, Yu Mingxi was helpless. He told Brother Chen Kai about this, but Brother Chen Kai didn't pay attention.  If you can arrange the shooting schedule according to God's arrangements, you can save a lot of money.  It didn¡¯t snow when we were supposed to shoot the snow scenes, but it started snowing heavily when we were shooting indoor scenes.  Not only did the sudden heavy snow arrive a bit late, it also caused considerable trouble to the crew. More than 300 foreign extras who came to the rescue from Suzhou were 3 hours behind schedule due to traffic reasons.  We just arrived in Shanghai, which gave the crew who had been waiting for a long time a false alarm.  There are so many extras because Chen Kaige has strict requirements on shooting effects.  "How's it going? Are the extras here?" Yu Mingxi, wearing a thick down jacket, looked back at Xiao Xiao and asked.  Xiao Xiao nodded and said: "They are all here. It is snowing so heavily and there is a traffic jam on the road. It's too late! It's already New Year's Eve. I didn't expect that there are still many cars jammed on the road. I'm afraid they will all be on the highway.  It¡¯s Chinese New Year on the road!¡± Yu Mingxi was not surprised. She just nodded to show that she understood. Then she looked at Xiao Xiao and said, ¡°You didn¡¯t want to spend the Chinese New Year with me on the set! If it were before, I would have given you a holiday a long time ago!  !¡± Originally, he planned to give Xiao Xiao a holiday and let his management team go home for the New Year, but they didn¡¯t agree.  After all, Yu Mingxi, the main character, was working, so how could they leave? They also stayed with Yu Mingxi on the set of "Mei Lanfang" to celebrate the New Year.  Xiao Xiao smiled and said: "You are still filming. How can we leave! You are a big star now, how can you not have an assistant by your side?" While the two were talking, Brother Chen Kai also came over, looked at Yu Mingxi, and said depressedly  "Mingxi, if I had known earlier, I should have listened to you! I should have filmed indoor scenes first!" Yu Mingxi smiled and said, "I was just talking casually. How could I have imagined that it would snow so heavily? Who can say that?  "Accurate!" Brother Chen Kai also knows that this is God's will, who can predict when it will snow.  We can't just wait until it actually snows to shoot these scenes.  Now the filming progress of the crew is considered slow, otherwise they wouldn't be filming during the Chinese New Year.  "You guys must not catch a cold! Make sure you are in good health! A few of you have caught a cold now!" Brother Chen Kai said very seriously while looking at Yu Mingxi and the other leading actors.  Sun Honglei and others also smiled and promised that they would not catch a cold and affect the shooting. ????????? In fact, there is also an outdoor scene in the car pier later.  Most of the following scenes are indoor scenes at the Tang Mansion and the Concert Hall, so they will not be greatly affected by wind and snow, and there is no need to worry about staying outside in the cold while filming in the middle of winter.  Now the extras are here.  They also had to start putting on makeup. In fact, they had already put on makeup long ago.  I have been waiting and now I need to touch up my makeup.  Change costumes.  This time he had to sing Peking Opera on stage in front of foreigners. Yu Mingxi was not too worried about this scene. In fact, it was just like singing Peking Opera on stage before, and he didn't find it difficult.  In the script, the Peking opera Mei Lanfang sang when she performed in the United States was "Hong Ni Guan", a traditional Peking opera piece.  This play is also called "The Lady of the East" and is performed in the first and second versions.  Mei Lanfang plays the role of Dongfang in the first volume and the maid in the second volume.  This method of having one person play different roles in the first and second plays, in order to adapt to the needs of the characters in the play, began with Mei Lanfang. It is not only an improvement on traditional performances, but also fully reflects his own personality.  His artistic skills and emotional narration make him popular among the audience.  The extras in the audience are already in their places, sitting on chairs under the stage, and the lighting and scenery debugging work has been completed.  This scene actually highlights the success of Mei Lanfang's Peking Opera performance in the United States from the side. He only needs to sing Peking Opera carefully and well with another professional Peking Opera actor on the stage, and it is treated as a Peking Opera performance.  The extras in the audience also knew how to act, and acted as they should. They just sat quietly below and watched the rest of the actors on the stage.Mingxi's fluttering white sleeves, her wielding spear, and her extremely beautiful figure.  It should be said that singing Peking Opera in front of many people, even if you are not a fan of Peking Opera, will not be able to understand it, let alone singing Peking Opera in front of foreigners.  There is no need to deliberately emphasize the expressions of the extras. It is like letting them appreciate a kind of beauty, the beauty of agility and the beauty of dancing.  This scene was only done twice. It was not because the Peking Opera actors on stage were good. It was just that when changing the camera, the extras were a little noisy and nervous at first, and their expressions were a bit stiff and unnatural, so it was only done twice.  The scenes between Sun Honglei and Yingda will be next, so Yu Mingxi can take a break.  After the filming was completed on New Year¡¯s Eve, the whole crew gathered together for a New Year¡¯s Eve dinner of local and seafood dishes.  Director Chen Kaige felt a little apologetic about not being able to let the crew go home for the New Year. Before the New Year's Eve dinner, he bowed deeply to the entire crew and said, "Thank you all for your hard work over such a long period of time. I can't celebrate the New Year this time."  I'm very sorry to let everyone go home, but our whole crew is already a big family, and this New Year's Eve dinner is our own family having a reunion dinner." After hearing this, all the crew members responded to the director's sentiments with warm applause.  Performing a privately prepared event heated up the atmosphere of the New Year's Eve dinner. Yu Mingxi, who had no special preparations, specially picked up the microphone and sang "Orchid Fingers" affectionately for director Chen Kaige and the crew, stirring up the atmosphere at the scene.  most**.  Before singing, Yu Mingxi said with a smile: "This song is a New Year's gift to the whole crew. I have never had the experience of celebrating holidays on the set. I always believe that various holidays should be spent with rest and family, but  On the set of "Mei Lanfang", I have almost experienced all the festivals of the year. After being together for such a long time, I have become one with everyone. I am a member of this big family, so this New Year is.  The most meaningful New Year is the most memorable holiday for me. "Although the crew did not go home to celebrate the New Year with their families, there are not many opportunities for the crew to celebrate the New Year together. After nearly a year of getting along, "Plum"  The crew of "Lan Fang" has become like a big family.  Celebrating the New Year in this family, you will not feel lonely.  After the crew had a New Year¡¯s Eve dinner together, Yu Mingxi called her mother immediately.  In order not to interrupt the overall shooting atmosphere, the crew of "Mei Lanfang" did not take a break during the Spring Festival, and continued to work hard on New Year's Eve. This year should be the first time that Yu Mingxi did not spend the New Year with her mother, but stayed on the crew to celebrate the New Year.  Seeing that many New Year blessing text messages were received on her mobile phone, Yu Mingxi also sent messages one by one to her friends to wish them a happy New Year.  "It's okay! These are all indoor scenes, don't worry! It's not cold! You and your uncle should also pay attention to your health!" Yu Mingxi leaned against the window, looking out at the heavy snow in the sky, holding her mobile phone in her hand, and she knew at a glance  It's calling someone.  Liu Mei knew that Yu Mingxi would stay on the set to celebrate the New Year this year, and she felt a little disappointed. However, she also knew that this was Yu Mingxi's job. She did not say anything to complain. She just told Yu Mingxi to pay attention to her health and not to catch a cold.  "Don't worry, I will take care of myself, and so will you! I will go back to see you after filming this movie!" After saying that, Yu Mingxi hung up the phone.  After calling his mother, Yu Mingxi naturally called his girlfriend Liu Yifei.  Liu Yifei knew that Yu Mingxi was still filming the drama "Mei Lanfang" and was still filming on the crew. He just told Yu Mingxi to take care of himself, don't catch a cold, and pay attention to his health.  Xiao Xiao saw Yu Mingxi looking out the window in a daze, walked over and asked, "What's wrong?" "I really want to go home for the New Year!" Yu Mingxi looked at the silver-clad world outside the window and said this unconsciously  sentence.  Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Yu Mingxi wanted to celebrate the New Year with his family, and said: "It doesn't matter, the drama will be finished soon!" Yu Mingxi smiled and shook his head, without looking back, he just said: "  It¡¯s not that easy.¡± I¡¯m afraid that due to the influence of the ¡°nude photos scandal¡±, all the scenes of Gillian playing the role of Fu Zhifang in her youth will probably be deleted, and the scenes of Mei Lanfang in her youth will also be deleted, and the scenes in her middle-aged life will also be deleted.  The role of Mei Lanfang in his period will be increased, and the scenes of middle-aged Mei Lanfang will have to be reshot during post-production.  Yu Mingxi looked back at Xiao Xiao and suddenly asked this question, "Xiao Xiao, what do you think of me getting married in the Olympic year?" Xiao Xiao looked at Yu Mingxi with wide eyes and asked in shock: "  Marry? " "Yeah! I want to get married so much! Do you think Xixi will agree to it?" Yu Mingxi smiled and drew two hearts.  Thinking about him and Liu Yifei getting married and forming a family.  Thinking like this, Yu Mingxi felt filled to the brim, "This is so good!"  There was still heavy snowfall outside the window, and the two simple heart shapes on the window glass looked particularly beautiful and romantic.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
