director of the millennium

Chapter 378 Nanshan Tower, Concentric Lock

"Crack!"

"Everyone take a break."

The Unhyeon Palace Hotel rented by the crew of "Goblin" is a sweet hut where ghosts and hell messengers live together. It was originally a palace in the Joseon Dynasty and is now the "Dongguk Palace Hotel" on the Jongno Campus of Deoksung Women's University.

This building is beautiful and beautiful. The exterior wall of the entire building is white, and the 16 roofs have different patterns, showing the retro style of the French Renaissance.

Hidden among ancient trees, there is a sense of mystery.

It is also mysterious and ancient enough that it was chosen by the crew to become the home of ghosts.

However, the atmosphere in the mansion at this time was not very good.

Song Yang waved to Wu Yuan with some embarrassment and said hesitantly: "Um, Director Wu, come and take a look at the material we just shot."

He didn't dare to say it clearly, so he could only let Wu Yuan see it for himself.

Wu Yuan, who was a little strange, turned his eyes to the monitor and quickly discovered something was wrong.

His expression was a little too reserved.

The scene he just filmed was a grudge scene between him and Li Dongxu, who plays the messenger from the underworld. The two of them were just like two childish children, verbally irritating each other and wrestling with each other using telekinesis.

Li Dongxu did a good job, and he played the childish feeling appropriately. He looked silly and very cute in contrast to the messenger from the underworld.

But Wu Yuan was different. He was reciting his lines, but the expressions and movements on his face didn't look "childish" at all.

"This is about the little boy's fighting spirit. Director Wu, you should have seen it, right?" Song Yang rubbed his hands and said, "This is what this scene wants."

"Both of them are immortals who have lived for thousands of years, but in their daily lives they act like childish little boys. They argue and get angry over trivial matters. Their mental age is not as big as that of the 19-year-old heroine."

Wu Yuan twitched his lips in embarrassment.

To be honest, with the combined memories of his two lives, his mental age cannot be said to be in his fifties or sixties, but it is definitely much older than his physical age. In addition, acting is still a layer away for him as a director, and he has to perform in person. It still needs to be adjusted.

This made Wu Yuan's filming of scenes that were quite different from his own personality very difficult.

It was also at this time that he truly felt the different perspectives of actors and directors on performance.

For directors, most of the time they have a scene in mind, and then they just move their mouths up and down and let the actors perform it.

If an actor cannot perform well, the director will be dissatisfied and will get angry. He will rarely consider whether the actor can complete such a performance.

In the past, Wu Yuan always collaborated with some veteran actors. Basically, whatever effect he wanted, these actors could produce the effect. At most, he could get through it by trying four or five times.

Now that he is acting on his own, he finally understands how difficult it is to perform some contrasting scenes well.

"If you don't try to be an actor yourself, you really won't understand the difficulties of being an actor." Wu Yuan murmured.

When Song Yang heard this, he also frowned and fell into deep thought.

He has not forgotten Wu Yuan's true identity. The experience and experience of such a great director is also very valuable to Song Yang.

In his heart, Song Yang was already wondering whether he should also find an opportunity to try being an actor himself, and experience the work of the crew from a different perspective, which might bring a different understanding to his career as a director.

But now it’s time to get down to business.

Song Yang scratched his head and asked hesitantly: "Well, Director Wu, do you want to take a break and figure out how to perform this scene? Can we continue shooting in the afternoon?" "No." Wu Yuan shook his head, "No need to delay because of me. Crew.”

"I'll go online and look for some videos of little boys playing around, maybe I can get a feel for it."

After being in the film industry for so many years, Wu Yuan also felt that he actually had some talent in film.

What is even a bit unspeakable is that although he is now a major international director, after these years of training, Wu Yuan vaguely realized that he seemed to have more talent in acting than directing.

At that time, he was only thinking about being a director, but it seems that he made the wrong choice. If he had listened to the art teacher and chosen the acting department, he might really be the best actor now.

There is nothing to regret. Being a director has always been Wu Yuan’s dream.

However, after confirming that he had talent in acting, Wu Yuan was not as resistant to filming "Goblin" as before. Instead, he was a little eager to give it a try and want to give a satisfactory answer.

I think back then, he also won the Best Newcomer in Berlin right after his debut!

Holding the notebook in his arms, Wu Yuan took Liu Yifei to a lounge on the second floor of the studio to figure out the little boys' quarrel.

Half an hour later, Wu Yuan returned to filming and successfully completed the scene.

After all, this is just an idol drama, and the requirements for acting skills are really not as high as those in movies.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, the crew called it a day.

After Li Dongxu bowed respectfully to say goodbye, Wu Yuan and Liu Yifei got into the nanny car and left the set.

"Sissi, we finish work early today, should we go to Nanshan Tower to have a look?"

In the car, after putting away the script, Wu Yuan said with a smile: "I heard that Nanshan Tower is the holy land of love in Korea. Tourists from all over the world take pictures on the concentric lock wall under the Nanshan Tower. They are densely packed with concentric locks. love."

"It is said that as long as the concentric lock is hung here, the couple will never be separated."

With the popularity of Korean dramas in Asia in recent years, Namsan Tower, a love sanctuary that appears frequently in Korean dramas, has become well-known.

The mysterious "love ceremony" of Nanshan Tower, where couples lock concentric locks with their respective names written on them, has also become a romantic anecdote.

After teasing Liu Yifei on the stone wall road of Deoksugung Palace and making her a little unhappy, Wu Yuan has been thinking about how to make up for it.

It is obviously a very suitable thing to hang a series of concentric locks on Nanshan Tower.

Wu Yuan's emotional intelligence is low, at least not to zero.

"Okay!" Sure enough, when Liu Yifei heard that Wu Yuan was going to Nanshan Tower with her to hang a love lock, she smiled so happily that she took the initiative to wrap her arms around Wu Yuan: "You have a heart."

"It's just a tourist attraction like this. There must be a lot of people there. It would be troublesome if domestic tourists recognize her." Liu Yifei wrinkled her features and said tangledly.

Wu Yuan rubbed Liu Yifei's head: "It's okay. Let's go have dinner first and wait until seven or eight o'clock in the evening. It will be dark by then. We wear masks. Under the night, it will be difficult to be recognized. of."

"Okay!" The smile reappeared on Liu Yifei's face and she muttered: "Then I have to prepare a concentric lock. It needs to be very strong and can be cut continuously."

"Our names also need to be written on it..."

"By the way, I wonder if I can lock the lock for someone else. Jiajia has also fallen in love recently. It would be great if I could hang one for her..."

Listening to Liu Yifei's excited thoughts, Wu Yuan smiled and said nothing, but held her hand tightly.
