Chapter 460 Perfect Close-up
After defeating Murongcheng, Gao Shuang's 1900 gained great fame.

Record companies flocked to him and moved in professional equipment to record for him.

For the layout of this scene, Liu, the prop group who has already learned Chinese and Western, once again made up the history of the development of early records.

In order to find a vinyl record recording device that fits the characteristics of the age, they almost searched the homes of famous record collectors in China.

In the end, with the help of Matthew, he "borrowed" a set of recording equipment from the beginning of the last century from the museum of the World Literature and Art Association.

The equipment was so well maintained that it was even possible to actually record real records when loaded with glossy soft-collagen.

However, the cost of using this device is relatively high!

According to Matthew, if he can't bring this thing back to the Museum of the World Literature and Art Association within three days, and personally kneel in front of the donkey-faced old lady to plead guilty, he will probably be charged with the crime of cultural relic robbery all over the world. Wanted inside.

Gao Shuang expressed deep sympathy for Matthew's experience, which is also the fundamental reason why He Xiaoling was so eagerly recruited to film this scene.

It's not Gao Shuang or Da Liu who make such a big fuss about this scene.

In the movie, the record recording equipment at the beginning of the last century is truly shown to people, and the audience can also take this opportunity to witness the live recording process at that time.

With the exception of documentaries about early concerts (mainly operas), such scenes are extremely rare in feature films.

Perhaps this is why the conception of the original director Torna Torre's work has always shown the extraordinary and uniqueness of the atmosphere.

In this group of shots, he let people review the history of the record which is inseparable from the development and dissemination of music in an instant.

Compared with other passages in the film, the historical significance of this passage even surpasses the climax of the whole play.

The crew was divided into two parts, the interior and exterior scenes, which went hand in hand.

On location, deputy director He Jiahong stood beside He Xiaoling holding a walkie-talkie.

Keep an eye on the voices coming from the interior scene at all times, and be ready to signal He Xiaoling to appear on the stage.

In the interior scene, Gao Shuang is ready.

Both Da Liu and Matthew also appeared as record dealers.

The two of them are very experienced in operating this old record machine, and there is no difficulty in performing this scene well.

Moreover, Matthew is particularly interested in being able to participate in Gao Shuang's big-production film.

It can be seen from the fact that he secretly used some shady means to obtain equipment for Liu.

After getting Gao Shuang's answer, Matthew almost memorized the script all day without sleep.

When the make-up sister put on clothes for him, she put a lot of effort into concealing the deep dark bags under the eyes.

Everything was ready, and Zhao Daquan's lens framed Liu and Matthew who were fiddling with the recording equipment.

After the work in hand came to an end, Matthew got up and said excitedly to Gao Shuang: "Mr. 1900, you will have a bright future. This record will become popular very soon, and you will become famous at that moment."

Matthew's tone and expression are filled with the joy of participating in the movie, and this emotion is appropriately placed in this line.

Gao Shuang looked curiously at the speakers used for record recording, and ignored Matthew's provocative and passionate speech.

He said to himself, "Recording...will it hurt?"

The busy Liu has already entered the equipment and installed it, and the soft vinyl novel has also been placed on the record player.

Following Matthew's shout of "one, two, three", Gao Shuang, who had returned to the piano, began to play.

Apparently he wasn't in the mood, just playing slowly and aimlessly.

Gao Shuang improvised a series of arpeggios and scales with both hands on the keys, and then gradually entered his own thoughts.

As if by God's will, his confused eyes naturally looked out the window.

He Jiahong, who had calculated the time, gently pushed He Xiaoling's back in the outfield.

In the infield shot, a girl with a simple and beautiful appearance came to the glass window.

She used the window as a mirror to reflect on her own appearance, whether there were any drops of water when she wiped her face with water.

He Xiaoling's dress is not fancy, it can only be described as frugal.

It was obvious at a glance that she was a passenger from the lower class.

Her jet-black hair was blown by the sea breeze, slipping to her forehead from time to time.

You can even see the exhaustion on her face after a long journey.

Of course Gao Shuang knew that this trace of exhaustion had nothing to do with the itinerary on the boat.

It's just a natural manifestation of the rush from the capital to the east of Guangdong, and the non-stop performance after the exhaustion of boats and cars.

But looking into He Xiaoling's eyes, one can find that under the cover of exhaustion, there is hope.

It was this plain and unaffected demeanor that had already fascinated Gao Shuang.

He Xiaoling suddenly broke into everyone's hearts with the sacred and pure Afang in the last movie. This image was particularly shocking in Gao Shuang's eyes.

At this moment, he even had the illusion of backflow in time and space.

I just feel that the woman in front of me may speak in the next moment.

"Hi, my name is He Xiaoling, you are Xiaoshuang from Aunt Xie's family..."

All the thoughts in Gao Shuang's heart are materialized and flowed from the heart along with the notes.

The round porthole in the cabin is cleverly used as a natural composition frame.

From the picture, it looks like a picture scroll hanging on the wall, and He Xiaoling in the picture scroll shows a beautiful demeanor.

At this moment, the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar He Xiaoling successfully aroused Gao Shuang's desire to play.

The gorgeous tone under his hands involuntarily turned into a tender melody.

Staring at the girl who has been looking in the mirror, everyone in the interior seems to have heard the voice of the pianist at sea.

It was the most simple, tender and touching melody of love from the bottom of his heart.

Gao Shuang did not improvise. The beautiful and simple tune he played at the moment is the theme of the film's soundtrack.

It shows the outstanding characteristics of the works of the master composer Ennio Morricone: simple and plain, rich in connotation, melody like a song, refreshing.

He Xiaoling probably heard the sound of the piano. She walked along the outer wall of the lounge and looked in through the window.

Zhao Daquan's camera locked on this figure tightly, even through the wall, he never lost a second, just like Gao Shuang's pursuing eyes.

He Xiaoling stopped outside another window.

She finally looked at the sea, and Gao Shuang's fingers were attracted by a yearning expression, and the pure and soft melody curled out from her heart.

Until the end, He Xiaoling moved again, completely out of Gao Shuang's sight, and away from Zhao Daquan's camera!
The last note of the song "Playing Love" was struck in Gao Shuang's hands.

Seeing the music stopped, Matthew took the lead in applauding.

He exclaimed with the most exaggerated expression: "It's great, it's simply wonderful."

As always, the exaggerated tone vividly reflected the image of a hypocritical businessman, but this did not make him feel the slightest embarrassment. He opened his hands and walked to Gao Shuang's side. The chicken thief reminded: "What is the name of this song? This is a tear-jerker. The name of the song must be easy to remember."

For business purposes, he needed a name that was provocative enough to match.

Seeing Gao Shuang still sitting in front of the piano unmoved, Matthew turned and left without hesitation, racking his brains to think of the title of his song.

Gao Shuang didn't seem to hear what Matthew said at all, he was still thinking about the beautiful image he saw just now.

At this moment, he even had the urge to give up and continue the performance, he just wanted to go outside the cabin separated by a wall and give Aunt He a hug.

Wu Hao, who watched everything from the sidelines, came to Gao Shuang and said to him: "You play as well as usual. You will become famous in one fell swoop, as long as you take that big step."

Gao Shuang raised his head blankly and asked Wu Hao, "What big step?"

Wu Hao persuaded him patiently: "Step over that board and go ashore. Go and pursue your fame and fortune."

Matthew paced back excitedly, ending the conversation between the two: "Please allow me to interrupt."

His eyes locked on Gao Shuang again.

Well, even in the most beautiful moment of the picture, Matthew never glanced out of the window.

As a rookie actor, Matthew's professionalism is commendable.

He looked at Gao Shuang like a dragon staring at money: "You can get whatever you want after finishing this record! You don't even need to leave the boat."

Matthew didn't want Gao Shuang to share his interests on land, as if showing off his spoils, he played the newly recorded record on the record player lightly.

To be honest, the recording effect is not very good.

After all, this old machine has been eliminated for many years.

Amidst the murmur of babbling, Gao Shuang heard the sound of the music he just played.

Although not very clear, it is enough to distinguish a strong emotional atmosphere from it.

Gao Shuang was very satisfied with this performance!
Just like what Murong Cheng told Uncle Xia, Gao Shuang's performances in the past were very mechanical and devoid of emotion.

Skillful skills can't cover up the lack of emotion, and there is an insurmountable moat between each other.

But after that bit of spirituality was injected into the body, this natural barrier seems to have been filled.

In the case of his full devotion, "Eternal Movement" is full of the mighty power of the sea, as angry as Thor roaring in a storm.

"Playing Love" expresses the admiration of love at first sight, but the infinite tenderness revealed in the strangeness.

Matthew was still beeping endlessly: "We will record millions of copies, and people all over the world will enjoy your wonderful music."

Whether in the plot or in reality, Gao Shuang was already impatient with Matthew's endless nonsense. He stared at the speaker of the record player and said firmly: "My music and I are inseparable."

As he said that, he rushed forward, disregarding Liu and Matthew's obstruction, and took down the record that had just been recorded.

"Do you know, we have a contract, you can't turn back!"

"I will never look back!!!"

……

Gao Shuang walked out of the cabin and saw He Xiaoling standing on the side of the boat.

There are several extras around He Xiaoling.

The interior scene has ended, and the exterior scene has not received the news of stopping.

Perhaps the assistant director He Jiahong didn't have time to shout "click".

Gao Shuang simply walked over there: "Aunt He!"

He Xiaoling heard this whisper, turned around to look, and said to Gao Shuang with a smile on her face, "This shot... um..."

It's just that before the sentence was finished, Gao Shuang embraced him in his arms.

Facing the sea breeze, he took a long, deep breath, making the eyes of the surrounding group performers who noticed the movement here become ambiguous.

During the period, someone played a loud whistle.

After a long while, He Xiaoling pushed Gao Shuang away with a blushing face, and lightly reprimanded: "Why is this? Many people are watching."

Gao Shuang stared at He Xiaoling, not knowing whether the pinkness on her face was the blush from the sea breeze, or the blood gushing from holding her breath.

Gao Shuang wrapped his arms around He Xiaoling's back: "I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you."

He Xiaoling looked to the side in panic, and said angrily, "Don't be ashamed of dead things."

Gao Shuang grinned and said, "We're a legitimate couple now, there's nothing to be ashamed about showing our affection."

Last week, Gao Shuang used the company's official WeChat account to announce his love affair with He Xiaoling.

This is an official announcement.

The two also had a series of interactions using private micro-clients.

There are many people wishing well in the comment area, but it can still be seen that there is a bit of grief.

Wang Xingren's fans and He Xiaoling's fans also scolded each other a lot while mourning.

Fortunately, Gao Shuang has always used his strength to speak in the entertainment circle, he is not considered an idol, and he doesn't need to manage the fan circle culture.

He Xiaoling's debut time is still short, and her fan base is not enough.

Now that the knife cuts through the mess quickly, it can be regarded as a smooth landing.

There is no criticism of love and adultery, so naturally there are no taboos in front of others.

He Xiaoling still spoke in a low voice: "Don't make trouble, we'll talk about it when we get back tonight."

Gao Shuang chuckled twice, that cheap look somewhat ruined 1900's perfect image of chic and affectionate.

The ships that sailed in the morning could no longer see the port at this time.

There was not even a single other ship in sight.

But today I can shoot this content in almost a day.

The scene of location 1900 with the girl blowing the sea breeze has not finished shooting, and the sky has already dimmed.

The part with exterior scenes is not good at this point. Natural light almost determines all shooting plans.

The time in line with the light is only two or three hours.

After the filming ended, Matthew reluctantly carried the machine he "borrowed" to the accompanying small cruise ship, and embarked on the return journey.

In the evening, Gao Shuang and He Xiaoling lived in the same room openly.

However, the sound insulation effect in the cabin is really limited, and even the collision sound of people in the next room with their ears pressed against the metal wall can be clearly heard.

This level of being listened to is a bit uncomfortable for an old hooligan like Gao Shuang, let alone the thin-skinned He Xiaoling.

So the two just rubbed each other as silently as possible on the bed for a while, and Gao Shuang climbed up from the bed reluctantly, full of animal blood.

In order to eliminate the restlessness in his heart, Gao Shuang was going to do something beneficial to his physical and mental health.

He turned on the computer and sorted out the footage shot during the day.

He Xiaoling rested her head on her arms, staring at Gao Shuang at work, the corners of her eyes curled into crescent moons.

After the basic work was completed, Gao Shuang spent almost the whole night making a variation on the theme of string music and harp.

The sea is erratic, and the next day there was a light rain in this sea area.

The wind and waves are not big, but the exterior scenes are completely impossible to shoot.

So the crew moved to the third-class warehouse, and then the previous plot continued.

At Gao Shuang's request, He Jiahong yelled "Start" and played a piece of music through the power amplifier.

This is the soundtrack that Gao Shuang completed last night.

He walked in the empty corridor to the sound of music, and a seemingly hesitant motive suddenly appeared in the music.

The presence of a minor second on the third of this motive accurately depicts a timid state of mind.

Then gradually formed a theme, the structure is so simple and vivid, it is simply amazing strokes of magic.

Accompanied by the timid music, Gao Shuang opened the door of the female third-class cabin.

The music continues with variations, starting with a simple timid theme for the piano, before the strings join in.

Gao Shuang searched everywhere in the cramped cabin full of people, and finally found He Xiaoling who was sleeping soundly.

At this time, Zhao Daquan gave Gao Shuang an over-the-shoulder position.

Through the cool subjective perspective, the audience can see the beautiful lips in a dream.

Such a peaceful scene made Zhao Daquan, who followed the filming, feel a surge of emotion.

He is almost certain that the scene in the camera at this moment can be called the most perfect close-up of lips in world movies!
none of them!
