Most of the plot of the first half of "Genius Gunman" takes place on campus, so the crew deliberately rented a local high school in Bangkok as a filming location.
"We chose just the right time to start."
Chen Zhixi said to Mu Ming, who had just gotten off the plane: "This half month happens to be the Songkran Festival holiday in Thailand, and high school is on vacation.
Don't worry about interfering with the shooting, but also save a lot of money. ” "But we need a lot of student ensembles?"
Mu Ming said suspiciously.
"Don't worry, the crew contacted the school before the holiday and recruited a group of students who are willing to come to the group performance during the holiday, there are about 30 people, which is enough."
Chen Zhixi introduced.
"Volunteers?"
"What do you think, of course you have to give money."
Chen Zhixi gave him a blank look: "A subsidy of 200 baht per person per day, and if the filming process can be successfully completed, there will be a bonus." ” "Bonus?
How much?
” "Well, isn't there a student in the movie who signed up for cheating to receive a text message and look down at the camera of his phone together.
The prize money is that mobile phone, and if you don't want it, you can exchange it for an equal amount of 5,000 baht in cash. ” Mu Ming did the math in her heart, thirty people, half a month's subsidy is 90,000 baht, plus 30,000 baht of bonus, a total of 120,000.
Converted into soft sister coins, it is about 23,000.
Tsk, no wonder they all say that students are cheap labor.
Chen Zhixi came a few days earlier than Mu Ming, mainly to communicate with the Tourism Authority of Thailand and the Ministry of Culture about the shooting.
Compared with the last time when "Thai Embarrassment" was filmed, this time the relevant departments treated the crew of "Genius Gunman" much better.
As for the reason, it is naturally because of "Thai Embarrassment".
Thanks to the success of "Thai Embarrassment", many domestic tourists have become interested in Thailand.
In the year since the release of "Thai Embarrassment", the number of domestic tourists to Thailand has increased by nearly 20%.
Thailand already has a considerable part of its fiscal revenue, relying on the profits brought by the tourism industry.
Therefore, it is natural that Chen Zhixi, who is the producer of "Thai Embarrassment", has a particularly good impression, and this time the procedures between the relevant departments can basically be said to be a green light.
When Mu Ming came, the preparation of the crew had already been completed, but Mu Ming waited for one more day, so that Feng Jiu and Chen Yao could adapt to the environment and filming venue, and then the start of filming was announced.
Three cameras were placed on a table, doorway, and window, with the camera focused on the three people sitting across their desks.
The woman sitting on the inside of the desk plays the role of the school principal in the movie, looking for a Chinese actress in Thailand.
Being able to speak fluent Chinese is why she was chosen.
There are many movies, including Hollywood blockbusters, that have a problem that is not a problem, that is, all the characters who appear, no matter which country, which planet, which species, can actually communicate in the same language.
Of course, the main purpose of this is to make the audience see it more clearly.
But for the movie itself, there will always be a sense of drama.
The background of "Genius Gunman" was changed by Mu Ming to a school for Chinese Americans.
But even then, there will inevitably be situations where you need to use Thai. plus the plot of the male and female protagonists going to Sydney to take exams in the second half of the movie.
The script lines of the entire movie are composed of three languages: Chinese, Thai and English.
Choose a Thai actor who can speak Chinese, and the same is true.
Sitting outside the table were a man and a woman.
The girl is naturally Feng Jiu, and the man is the father of the heroine in the movie, Mu Ming invited teacher Wang Qingxiang.
With a pair of eyes, he sat in a chair with a slight bend. is like an ordinary father, and he doesn't see the power of the gossip grandmaster in "The Grandmaster" at all.
"Teacher Wang Qingxiang."
Mu Ming walked over and asked, "How is it?"
” "Don't worry, Director."
Wang Qingxiang said with a smile.
Mu Ming nodded politely, Mu Ming has always trusted these old actors from dramas.
"Feng Jiu."
Mu Ming turned to Feng Jiu on the side again.
The girl had round-framed eyes that could cover half of her face, a braid, and no makeup, looking earthy.
"How's the lines going?"

Mu Ming asked.
In this plot, Xiao Lin's father wants Xiao Lin to transfer to this high school, and the heroine Xiao Lin doesn't want to transfer because of the cost.
In the middle, there is a long line of calculating the excess expenses after the transfer, which requires Feng Jiu to finish without stopping.
Although it is in Chinese, it is still somewhat difficult.
"Hmm!"
Hearing Mu Ming's culture, Feng Jiu nodded his head vigorously.
She had been preparing this line for a long time, and she believed that there was no problem. patted Feng Jiu's shoulder comfortingly, Mu Ming saw that everyone in the crew was ready, and after returning to the monitor, he coughed lightly and shouted loudly.
“A！”
"She has been a top student since one year of elementary school and three years of high school.
He also won first place in the math competition.
The charade contest was also the first place.
Also, the sports results are good......"
Wang Qingxiang fiddled with a bunch of trophies and medals in his hand, trying to introduce his daughter's advantages, hoping to make the principal sitting opposite agree to accept his daughter.
"Sir, that's enough."
The headmistress stopped the father's words: "We will definitely accept Xiao Lin into school."
But now she should be asked if she wants to come here to study.
Xiao Lin, what do you mean?
” Feng Jiu pursed his lips and said in a hesitant tone, "Don't I need to, reply now?"
” Mu Ming, who was sitting behind the monitor, looked at Feng Jiu's performance in the camera, and nodded subconsciously.
For this role, his original candidate was actually Zhang Tianai, and Feng Jiu was the second female, that is, Chen Yao's current role.
It's just that, out of various considerations, Mu Ming replaced the heroine's candidate with Feng Jiu.
Of course, this was all in his own mind, and no one knew who the final candidate would be until the news was announced.
Before, he was still a little worried, afraid that Feng Jiu would not perform well in this role.
But now it seems that she is still well prepared.
Mu Ming's side is concentrating on two things, and Feng Jiu's side is preoccupied.
"The tuition fee for a semester is 60,000, and it is 120,000 yuan a year, where does the 150,000 come from?"
The headmistress asked suspiciously.
Feng Jiu took a shallow breath, and the next lines quickly went over in his heart.
He raised his head slightly and said, "Yes, but my dad teaches at the old school, and I go to school with him in the morning."
If I came here, I would have to take another MRT. ” "In addition, 80 motorcycles are taken back and forth every day, which is 170 days for eight months, and this part has been deducted from the statutory holidays, which will cost a total of 13,600 baht a year."
"There was also the cost of lunch.
The original school lunch cost 20 baht for two dishes, but here it costs 35 baht for two dishes.
It is 5,950 baht a year, which is 2,550 baht more than the original.
There are other tuition and fees ......"
Feng Jiu's speed of speech was normal at first, but it immediately became faster, and it became faster and faster.
Until later, things like numbers and the like were passed by and couldn't be remembered at all. “…… There are also things like the wear and tear of stationery, the price of uniforms.
Feng Jiu paused abruptly, and then resumed his initial tone with some hesitation: "So I don't think it's cost-effective to transfer schools." ”
