After that, several more shots were taken for this scene.
Although the first shot was already very good, Chen Kaige had always been rigorous. Almost every scene had to be retaken several times to achieve perfection.
Bai Mu was very appreciative of this, because he also wanted to show the audience the best of Li Bai. The two of them had the same opinion.
It was just that the rest of the crew had to repeatedly adjust the equipment.
On the third day, Bai Mu began to shoot the second long shot.
This scene tested Bai Mu's acting skills, but it was still a scene.
The content was that Bai Mu had agreed to write a poem and then wrote a song called " Qing Ping Diao ".
Before filming, Bai Mu found Chen Kaige.
"Director Chen, can you reconsider the part where I write poems later?”
Bai Mu said carefully.
"Tell me." Chen Kaige's expression did not change.
"According to the script, I was supposed to write poems on paper, but when I was auditioning with Tian Yu, I realized that I couldn't find that feeling.”
"Li Bai's arrogance!”Bai Mu emphasized.
"Do you have any suggestions?" Chen Kaige thought for a moment and said.”
"Perhaps I can write a poem on Gao Lishi's back.”Bai Mu said.
" Writing poems on his back..." Chen Kaige's eyes lit up.
What kind of personality did Li Bai have? A character that treated dignitaries like dirt!
Then, when Gao Lishi, who was in a high position and had great power, came to him to ask him to write a poem, would Li Bai obediently write it?
Without a doubt, it wouldn't!
He would definitely go and play with Gao Lishi. If taking off his boots was not enough, then adding the poem on his back would leave a deep impression.
"Alright, we'll do as you say and take a look first!”Chen Kaige said.
After saying that, he called Tian Yu over for a discussion. Tian Yu also agreed with this change.
After a few people discussed the next scene, the second act officially started shooting.
"All departments, get ready!"
“Action!”
As soon as Chen Kaige finished speaking, several cameras began to move.
Bai Mu leaned against the bronze turtle statue, holding a brush in his right hand. The tip of the brush was dipped in ink and placed between his lower lips, soaking his lips in some black ink.
" Cloud Thinking Clothes..." Bai Mu thought for a while, and then he suddenly had an idea. He sat up straight and said," Come here!”
Gao Lishi quickly walked over and bent down in front of Bai Mu so that Bai Mu could write the words on his back.
"Clouds, clothes, flowers, looks…"
Bai Mu wrote a sentence and suddenly shook his head and laughed. He dipped the pen in ink and continued to write: "The spring breeze caresses the threshold and the dew is thick."
After writing this sentence, Bai Mu seemed to have thought of something. His upper body slowly leaned against the bronze turtle statue.
His gaze was fixed on the distant horizon, and a sunset-like orange light quietly sprinkled down.
" If I didn't see you at the top of Mount Qunyu…" Bai Mu seemed to have seen a goddess from beyond the heavens, his eyes lost in thought.
Slowly, his eyes began to glisten as he said softly,""We will meet under the moon at the Jade Terrace."
He slowly raised his head. Tears welled up in his eyes. He wanted to open his mouth and laugh, but he couldn't make a sound.
His body trembled slightly, and his laughter gradually came out. It grew louder and louder, and finally, the entire palace echoed with his unrestrained laughter.
After a while, Bai Mu sat up straight.
He picked up his pen.
The whole poem was written in one go.
"Alright!" Bai Mu said indifferently.
"Not changing?" Gao Lishi turned around and asked Bai Mu.
"Not a word is easy." Bai Mu casually threw the brush in his hand into the wine pool at the side, making a splash.
"What did you write? Is it good?”Gao Lishi curiously turned to look at his back.
" See for yourself." Bai Mu was a little tired. He leaned back on the bronze turtle and squinted slightly." I'm going to sleep..."
After saying that, he closed his eyes and fell asleep in a drunken state.
"Ka-!" Chen Kaige shouted.
Bai Mu stood up and wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes after he heard the end of the call.
"Teacher Bai, you're amazing!" Tian Yu praised.
"It's really amazing! That tear just now, I felt like I saw the real Li Bai.”someone said.
"A truly ingenious work of chance can first infect the poet himself. This is the true Li Bai, the true stroke of God!”
"I knew it was an act, but when Teacher Bai was filming just now, I held my breath and watched it. I didn't even dare to breathe heavily, afraid that it would affect Teacher Bai's performance.”
“……”
Hearing the praise from the others, Bai Mu smiled.
To be recognized by most people, it meant that the Li Bai he played was indeed remarkable.
This was the greatest compliment to Bai Mu, who defined himself as an actor.
"Very good. This time, we'll clear it in one go!”Chen Kaige said happily.
"Don't you need to protect another one?" Bai Mu asked.
Chen Kaige waved his hand and said," It's okay. The scene just now was already captivating. It might not be better to film it again."”
"If there are any scenes that are exposed or if the scenes are not connected properly, we can deal with it later.”
Bai Mu nodded when he heard that. He didn't expect that tear to fall. He just felt it in his heart and naturally shed a tear.
Perhaps Li Bai had been in the same state of mind when he composed this beautiful poem thousands of years ago.
However, if he were to film it again, Bai Mu couldn't guarantee that he would be able to find the same feeling as before. Of course, it would be best if he could do it in one go.
"Alright, that's all for today. Let's call it a day!”Chen Kaige shouted.
After that, Chen Kaige looked for Bai Mu and said,"Do you have time on your schedule recently? I want to add more scenes for you.”
"Add more scenes?" Bai Mu felt a little strange because the movie script had already been finalized and the filming had started. It was impossible to add and delete scenes for people casually.
"It's not really an additional scene. It's just an additional scene of Li Bai as an Easter egg.”Chen Kaige said.
"The Easter egg is usually the behind-the-scenes footage or the trailer during the filming of the movie. However, I want to try changing it this time because in this movie, I want to show the original Tang Dynasty.”
"And Li Bai is the best symbol of the Great Tang.”Chen Kaige explained.
"I should have time." Bai Mu thought for a while and said.”
" That's good," Chen Kaige said happily." After we finish shooting the last scene in a few days, we'll start shooting the movie Easter egg!”
"Alright."
