98. The most humble director of all time

Cheng Guochao looked at Xu Shi like a madman, not only him, but also other members of the crew.

Xu Mingjie said even more anxiously: "Uncle, you must not do this, it's too dangerous."

Xu Shixiao said, "It's okay, I'm sure."

Cheng Guochao growled when he heard this: "You are so sure, do you know how dangerous this is? If you don't pay attention, we will go to your house for a dinner and contribute two tears at the same time.

You don’t make a fuss. I know you want to shoot a good movie, and I want to shoot it like this, but it’s not like this when shooting a movie.

It’s better to do it as I mean, just shoot it in the green cloth and then synthesize it. Don’t worry, if we spend a little more money, we will definitely do it more realistic than the real one.

And this is common sense. How can you shoot such actions without using green cloth? Do you understand common sense?"

When he said that, Cheng Guochao roared lowly, he was about to be mad by Xu Shi.

"Old Cheng, didn't you just say that you can't use special effects? Why did you change your words now?" Xu Shi joked.

Cheng Guochao said angrily: "Isn't that for publicity? Also, is this the same thing? I mean fighting scenes do not require special effects. Doesn't it mean that jumping off a building scenes do not require special effects.

If you have to shoot the movies like this, then if there is a scene of jumping from a building in the future, do you still have to shoot it?"

What Cheng Guochao didn't know was that his words were fulfilled.

Xu Shi was just kidding. The reason why he did this this time had nothing to do with what Cheng Guochao said.

Xu Shi put away his smile and said seriously: "Old Cheng, listen to me, I am really not kidding my life, I am 99% sure.

Since that's the case, why don't I do it? In fact, you also know that no matter how good the special effects are, they are not as good as real-life shooting. We have done so much, and Cheng Dapeng's legs are broken. Everyone wants to shoot this film well. They can't drag it back on me. This is also a pity for everyone's efforts.

Also, Lao Cheng, you don’t know that our funds are not enough, and now we can save as much as possible.”

Xu Shi never thought that ten million would be used so quickly, and he had to spend a lot of money every day, which made Xu Shi feel a little distressed.

Cheng Guochao said: "Even if you are 99% sure, it won't work. What if you have one percent, you will have no chance to start over if you make a mistake.

I also see Cheng Dapeng and everyone's efforts, but I can't live for this, right?

The problem of funds is not a problem. As long as you speak, whether it is Boss Sun or Boss Zhang, they will definitely be willing to increase their investment now."

This is a fact. Since the video became popular online, the two immediately called to ask if they were short of money. The meaning is very obvious. They want to invest additionally and occupy more shares.

Even now, both of them regretted the 0.5% share that they gave up, but now they have signed a contract and can't help but regret it.

However, Xu Shi didn't want them to increase their funds anymore, which would dilute his share. He could not get any money now.

Although the funds are used up now, it is enough to be faster. After all, except for the salary, the rest of them are basically used for shooting.

Cheng Guochao refuted all Xu Shi's excuses and even said, "Brother Xu, can't I call you Brother Xu? Please don't work so hard. I hope you don't be so dedicated now. Can't we be relaxed? Can't we worry less?

Brother, no, my heart really can't stand it. If I had a heart disease, I would have been scared to death by you."

Just as he said this, the cameraman holding a small camera next to him lit up his eyes and immediately recorded the scene.

At the same time, he shouted in his heart that this material is really great. He even wrote the title for the scene just now, and he was called the most "humble" director in history.

Cheng Guochao's attitude is indeed shocking. Directors have always made actors work harder and more dedicated, but no director has ever asked actors not to be so dedicated or so desperate.

Cheng Guochao has set a precedent in the director industry.

Xu Shi hurriedly said, "Old Cheng, this is a bad idea. If you believe me this time, you can see that I did it only when I jumped on the bridge with confidence. Isn't it just because I did it without any trouble?

Yes, Cheng Dapeng was indeed injured, but that was an uncontrollable factor, and I still have confidence in myself.”

"I don't have confidence in you." Cheng Guochao shouted angrily.

In this way, the two of them were arguing. Cheng Guochao was so angry that he would just announce that he would be here today and would like to talk about it tomorrow.

Xu Shi had no choice but to do this. Although he could force Cheng Guochao to shoot, after all, he had the right to speak, but he was unwilling to do so.

No matter what, Cheng Guochao was also worried about him and caring about him. He could not regard other people's kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs.

In the evening, Xu Shi found Cheng Guochao with two jars of wine. Seeing that Cheng Guochao was still angry, Xu Shi said with a funny look: "Old Cheng, is it that?"

"You said that it's not? Just listen to my advice this time. This is really different from last time. It's really too dangerous and has a very difficult factor." Cheng Guochao began to persuade him with great sincerity.

Xu Shi didn't say much at this time, but just lit the wine and said, "Drink some?"

"Don't think that two bottles of wine can buy me. I tell you, this is impossible." Even though that was said, Cheng Guochao still started drinking with Xu Shi.

In the end, I didn’t know how Xu Shi persuaded him, but Cheng Guochao finally agreed in a daze.

By the next day, the crew members saw Cheng Guochao start to ask everyone to prepare for filming.

At this time, everyone understood that Xu Shi persuaded Cheng Guochao to take the risk of filming.

Everyone's spirits began to be highly nervous and excited. They had never seen such scenes before, and being able to participate was a kind of capital. They could not say that they could brag about what classic scenes they had shot in the future.

They are sure that although such action scenes have appeared in many movies and TV shows, as long as Xu Shi shoots it, it will definitely be a classic, because he is a real scene shooting, not a special effect, and this is a life-long shot.

No one dared to relax. Song Liwu and others also cleaned all the debris on the ground, and even found some machines to grind the roof roughly, so that Xu Shi's next run-up could be smoother.

After everything was ready, everyone's eyes were on Xu Shi, excited, worried, and admiration...
