Chapter 48: Old-fashioned Routines!(Ask for Recommendation Votes!)
After the filming of "Jaws" ended, Mr. Wang of Nansha Seaside Resort, another shark-themed movie cooperated with Xu Tao was also filming in the last two days.
After Li Qian left with the crew, Mr. Wang also rushed to the set to see how the films he invested in were doing.
"Director Xu, how long will it take for us to finish filming this film, Li Qian has already finished filming the location. ”
Xu Tao said with a smile, "Mr. Wang, rest assured, there are only two days left, and the time is definitely in time." ”
Mr. Wang looked at the shooting site, and the progress was fast enough, after filming the exterior in four days, he started shooting the interior two days ago, and it was about to be completed.
However, it was too fast, which also made Mr. Wang a little uneasy, but he was also a layman, and he knew that professional things should be handed over to professional people to do this, and he couldn't give any good advice.
Still, he tactfully expressed his concerns.
"Isn't it a little strange for us to let a Taoist priest hunt sharks in this film about sharks. ”
That's right, the title of this film is "The Road Grows Out of the Mountain: Zhu Shark", which draws on some Hollywood shark horror films, and then blends domestic zombie films, and by the way, refers to what Li Qian filmed, forming the third part of the "The Road Grows Out of the Mountain" series.
Basically, it is the story of the mutation of the corpse of a giant shark, making waves on the sea, and being sand sculptured by a little Taoist priest with Maoshan Taoism.
The whole hodgepodge is a hodgepodge, but Xu Tao is full of confidence.
"The series "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain" still has a certain reputation, and what the Internet University sees is a novelty, and the Maoshan Taoist priest is a new theme against the mutant shark, and our mutant shark will be bigger, more fierce and violent. ”
"I've watched the filming process of Li Qian's shark movie, it's nothing unusual, I wonder who rubbed whom's popularity this time is not necessarily!"
Speaking of Li Qian's new film, Xu Tao was quite disdainful in his words.
In the past few days, he has basically looked at the surveillance video every night, and the whole shooting process is unremarkable.
A scene where a group of people play on the beach at night, two scenes where tourists panic at the beach, and a scene where a shark is caught.
Xu Tao can even guess the general plot, it is nothing more than a shark attacking humans one night, no one takes it seriously, and then the shark attacks again in broad daylight when there are many tourists.
Immediately after the people killed the shark, just when they relaxed their vigilance and dared to go into the water to play, the shark reappeared, and there was a second panic, and then finally a decisive battle with the shark.
It's a very simple routine, it's all old-fashioned!
Originally, Xu Tao thought that Li Qian, who could shoot "Sniper Phone Booth", could have any good ideas, but now that he thinks about it, he is a young man, but it is just a fluke.
This time, "The Road Grows Out of the Mountain: Zhu Shark" may be able to overwhelm the other party's shark movie, plus his new film "The Legend of Shushan Xiuxian", the two big sellers are enough to establish his status as the first person in the Internet University.
"The Legend of Shushan Cultivating Immortals" is still inspired from the Internet, I don't know what's going on recently, Xu Ke's "Shushan" that hit the street more than 20 years ago suddenly had a reputation of rehabilitation, Xu Tao thought about filming a "Legend of Shushan Xiuxian", a modern version of the story of cultivating immortals, and it can also rub the popularity of "Shushan".
Xu Tao swore so much, which also made Mr. Wang drop the worry in his heart.
Although Li Qian has set a box office record for the Internet, he is young after all.
And Xu Tao is also the pioneer of the Internet industry, without "The Road Grows Out of the Mountain", the Internet industry would not have the scale it has today.
......
On Li Qian's side, on June 9, the crew officially moved to the underwater studio in Hengdian, and in the next week, the scene of the shark fishing trio going to sea will be filmed.
There was also some night drama filming last night, plus the time to pack up and hurry, it was already more than three o'clock in the morning when Li Qian and the crew returned to Hengdian.
Today, let the crew also take a break, start work at 10 o'clock, prepare for an hour, and start filming just after lunch.
Li Qian also rarely slept lazy, and didn't get up until 9 o'clock.
Have a good breakfast, don't have to hurry up, this leisurely state of life is not to mention how refreshing.
However, there was only a leisurely time in the morning, and when the hour hand was about to point to 10, Li Qian went out to the set.
This time it was a regular studio, and all the facilities reached a certain standard, which was not comparable to the studio that the warehouse factory had converted from last time.
In the middle is a huge pool of turquoise water, surrounded by a blue curtain and arranged in the shape of a horseshoe print, in order to fully light the background.
There are still more than ten minutes to reach ten o'clock, but the crew has already arrived and is preparing for the first scene of the day.
"Morning, everyone. ”
Li Qian smiled and greeted everyone.
"Director Li Zao. ”
"Boss. ”
"Has Director Li eaten?"
After a morning rest, everyone seemed to be quite energetic, and their work was much easier.
However, Lao Pan, who abandoned his family and business, came again, and he finished the day before yesterday, saying that Huang Bo asked him to audition for a movie.
Li Qian asked, "Lao Pan, how was your audition?"
"The audition went well and the contract was signed. ”
Pan Lei couldn't hide the smile on his face at all, he abandoned his career with just the right momentum of development, and let a good boss not be an actor, in fact, he didn't have much confidence in his heart.
However, getting two roles in a row, although there are not many scenes, still makes him full of confidence in the path of future actors.
Without waiting for Li Qian to ask, Pan Lei took the initiative to talk about the film he auditioned for.
"It's a comedy movie, starring Hiroko, the name of the movie is "Stubborn Radish", I play a security captain, but it won't be filmed until winter. ”
The comedy starring Huang Bo is quite reliable, and the comedy can give full play to Lao Pan's advantages.
said hello and congratulated, Li Qian didn't talk much, and was ready to start filming.
Today's first scene is a scene where the shark trio goes out to sea and releases raw meat as bait in the sea to prepare to trap sharks.
The actors were all ready on board, tried the light in the studio, and the shooting officially began.
"Scene 41, one shot!"
"Let's go!"
This scene is not difficult, Li Guangjie threw the bait in the bucket into the water piece by piece at the bow of the boat, but he was afraid of the water, standing on the bow of the boat with some panic in his heart, and all kinds of uncomfortable symptoms burst out.
And the seasoned old fisherman, the shark catcher, sat and fished, chattering and taunting him.
also gave several close-ups of shark fishing experts, and generally kept giving a supporting character close-up, and when there were still a lot of words, it was time to hang up soon after, one of the most common routines for making movies.
This is also the opportunity for Li Guangjie's role to slowly change, before facing the shame of the mother of a dead child, he went to sea to make up for the mistakes he made.
After going to sea, he was afraid and unaccustomed to the sea, and was ridiculed by his companions.
Then, at night, the marine expert and the shark fishing expert each told their own heroic deeds at sea, and began to be relieved, before they officially became part of the shark fishing trio.
Then the great white shark attacks the boat, the boat is destroyed, the marine expert falls into the sea and is attacked, and the shark hunter is eaten.
Although he is afraid, he must face it, because he has truly regarded the two of them as partners in life and death.
Eventually, he overcame his fears, climbed the mast, and used his wits to shoot the great white shark.
Complete the character transformation, from a security captain who is afraid of the sea, to a hero who can defeat the great white shark of the sea, a real "security" captain!
The roles are actually very rich, and Li Qian didn't lie to Li Guangjie at the beginning.
However, the protagonist is destined to be a shark, and professionals may focus on the male protagonist, but the audience will always only have sharks in their eyes.
