Chapter 307: Old Smoking Gun

Like Li Jing before, He Xin also met Cheng Qian in the preparation stage of "Wuji". Although the outside world's evaluation of him is quite controversial, such as the three bad artists of "poor artistic morality, poor acting morality, and poor morality". But He Xin felt that this person was not bad after several contacts, that is, he had a distinctive personality and was sharp, and he dared to put forward his different opinions even in front of Director Chen. Such a person is easy to offend people, to put it bluntly.

However, he and Chen Dadao have a good relationship, after all, they are all children of old artists, and they belong to the kind of portals that are comparable and have similar temperaments. once partnered with Chen Hong in Director Chen's "With You", playing a pair of lovers of a down-and-out poet and a female group.

This time, the king he played in "Wu Ji" is a cameo appearance, just one scene, and he will die when he appears. It's just that Director Chen has high requirements, and this scene has been filmed for two days.

Talking about this matter, Cheng Qian still complained a lot. Although it is only the middle of April now, the temperature is still quite high under the sun during the day, and it is very hard to dance on the roof in this heavy crown dress.

"Koga!"

Director Chen over there saw He Xin, who was arguing with Cheng Qian, and greeted him loudly.

"Here, Director!"

The thing hurried over.

"New brother!"

Xie Qiwang on the side took the initiative to say hello to him.

It can be seen that today's Xiao Xie swept away the decline in the studio of Beijing Film Studio some time ago, and he seems to be in a good mood. It probably has something to do with the company of the beautiful woman next to him.

"Tell me about ......"

"Director, no introduction. The thing said with a smile, and then took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Zhang Baizhi and said, "Miss Zhang, hello, congratulations!"

Because at the just-concluded 23rd Hong Kong Film Awards, Zhang Baiju won the actress for his wonderful performance in "Can't Forget".

It's just a pity that it is not the legendary Liangziqing who cooperates with her in this film, but the citizen Mr. Liu.

"Thanks, uh...... New brother!"

After all, it was the first time they met, Zhang Baiju paused slightly, and finally called him a new brother with King Xie Qi.

Among the new generation of female stars in Hong Kong, He Xin's most impressive is of course the one in front of her, not because of her fame or acting skills, the reason is very simple, because she is beautiful!

It's just that after meeting the real person today, to be honest, he was a little disappointed in his heart. Although the face in front of her looks flawless, full of collagen, her facial features are delicate and three-dimensional, coupled with her red lipstick and pink eyeshadow makeup at this time, it looks very charming.

But her height is much shorter than the impression He Xin had seen on TV before, and she is still half a head away from standing next to Xie Qiwang, who is in his early sevens, let alone compared to herself, only to her shoulders. It definitely doesn't look more than one meter six, or even shorter, but it's a little on par with Zhou Xun.

In his aesthetic concept, if a woman does not have a pair of long legs, it is really difficult to get into the eye. Although his girlfriend's legs are a little thick, after all, she has a height of 1.64 meters, and her legs are quite long.

"There's a night play between you and Nicholas in the evening, okay?"

Considering that He Xin had just arrived today, Chen Dadao specially asked, but his tone sounded unquestionable.

He Xin hurriedly said: "No problem!"

In fact, after experiencing the previous filming, although there are many difficult actions in the martial arts drama with the help of stand-ins, after all, it is the first time, and it is still quite difficult for him. As for literary dramas, especially the rivalry with King Xie Qi, it is not difficult at all, and sometimes he even has to collect some, so as not to suppress the aura of the protagonist of King Xie Qi.

Movies are a system project, it doesn't mean that you can act well alone, and actors and actors also need to cooperate. Generally speaking, the supporting role is to serve the protagonist, otherwise there would be no gold medal green leaves, the so-called green leaves exist to set off the red flowers. So when really filming, there is no such thing as hanging, the so-called hangings are just the audience's brain supplements.

Although Chen Dadao did not specify which rivalry he had with King Xie Qi, since it was a night scene, he could also guess that it should be Wu Huan who did not hesitate to kill all the six guards around him in order to kill him, and then ordered the ghost wolf to kill the last person who knew - Kunlun, who pretended to be the general Guangming and killed the king's slave Kunlun.

In fact, there is an obvious flaw in the plot here, that is, Kunlun was obviously caught by Wuhuan, and it was just a simple matter to kill him, so why did he have to do it with the ghost wolf?

Maybe it's Joyless's bad taste, wanting to watch the two Snow Countryers kill each other before they do. Or maybe Wuhuan was to punish the ghost wolf for his failure to assassinate the general, so that he could kill the only one of his kind in the world with his own hands.

But in this heavily guarded royal city, you can't watch the ghost wolf escape with Kunlun. Well, if they don't run away, there is no way for this plot to go any further. Maybe in Director Chen's eyes, this small flaw in the plot is not important, but the beauty of the shooting is the most important thing.

When filming resumed, with the order of the assistant director, the extras who were resting in place stood up one after another, picked up the gold-fingered red tassel gun in their hands, and stood in line.

It's just that He Xin was a little surprised when he saw this scene, because the gang in front of him who played the silver helmets and black-robed guards under Duke Wuhuan of the North were much worse than those Nortel students who were all over 1.75 meters in the Beiying studio before.

The silver-helmeted and black-robed guards here are really uneven in height, old and young, especially the soldiers standing in the front row, whose size gradually becomes shorter from the middle to the sides. There is also a big age difference in the age of this group of performers, soldiers in their twenties and soldiers in their fifties are in a row, giving people the feeling that they do not look like elite soldiers, but like a rabble.

You must know that when the national teacher was filming "Hero" here, the soldiers who played the soldiers of the Qin Army were all soldiers of the army, that spirit, and shouting the slogan "The King is mighty", it really has the momentum of "Fighting for the old Qin, going to the national disaster together"!

He Xin has always had to compete with the national teacher everywhere, and the requirements are extremely strict when filming, and Director Chen, who is even to the point of nitpicking, will tolerate these?

"Wang Da understands, are you ready?" Chen Dadao shouted at one of the assistant directors who were directing the scene.

"King Qiyu, let's OK together!" The assistant director, who was called Wang Daming, arched his hand towards Director Chen from afar and replied loudly and nondescriptly.

"Wuji" is a large crew of more than 1,000 people, and Director Chen has several director teams under him, and each group has an assistant director in charge. Director Chen gave these assistant directors a string of nicknames, such as "Water Chief, Zhao Shopkeeper, Wang Daming, Scarab, Beetle......" and so on.

Of course, he won't give himself a nickname, but the assistant directors under him are very knowledgeable and specially helped him take the nickname of "King" to show everyone's respect and obedience to Director Chen.

To put it bluntly, it's to slap the horse and coax the big eggs!

Chen Dadao did not reject it, which shows that he is quite satisfied with the title of "king".

The next scene was the scene of Xie Qiwang, which was very strange, Director Chen asked him to sit on a golden chair with a backrest and armrests that looked like a big hand with outstretched fingers, and behind him were still silver helmets and black-robed soldiers. Then the camera on the big swingarm shoots from panorama and medium shots all the way to close-up and close-ups.

Then the director asked him to put his feet on the sky, his head to the ground and his back on his back, and his buttocks to support the seat, which was equivalent to the whole person falling down on the chair.

He Xin, who was standing aside watching this shot, was a little incomprehensible, but Director Chen was serious, and he didn't seem to be satisfied with a few shots at first, until he shot it four times before he shouted "Okay!"

The shots of Xie Qiwang in this scene are very fragmented, most of them are filmed of him sitting on the golden chair in various sitting postures and various actions and expressions, one scene is very funny, the props stuff gives him a golden top is a red tassel gun with a thumbs up and a thumbs up gesture, allowing him to make various comparisons to the camera.

These scenes of King Xie were taken for a long time, and it can be seen that he is also very hard, especially since he still has a helmet with eight long feathers on his head. After each shot, he would take off his helmet and rest for a while.

In the past, when filming in the studio, it was not very visible, but now that they are filming outside, the crew's care for Xie Qiwang can be described as meticulous. The sun was very hot in the afternoon, and when he rested, he was afraid that King Xie would be exposed to the sun, so he specially helped him hold up a big umbrella and put a comfortable canvas chair next to him.

He Xin noticed that the back of the chair was written with the words "Xie Tingfeng" in white paint, which was obviously for Xie to rest king. It's good to have obvious marks like this, so that no one who is uninteresting will take a chair and sit blindly, and there will be nowhere to cry out if he is beaten.

Seeing that Xie Qiwang had a special seat that was clearly marked, He Xin also looked to both sides, there was no word behind Chen Dadao's special director's seat, and no one dared to sit on his chair if he thought about it, the chair Zhang Baizhi sat on was the same as Xie Qiwang's, but he didn't see the back of the chair because of the angle.

At this time, Zhang Baizhi may have taken off the bright yellow costume robe with the same style as Cheng Qian on the outside because of the hot weather, revealing the peach-colored see-through silk skirt inside, and the moon-white belly pocket inside can still be vaguely seen, coupled with the fluffy and messy hairstyle deliberately combed on her head, it doesn't look like the princess of Allure at all, but has a bit of the taste of a dusty woman.

She was taking a pack of Bai Wan from her assistant's hand, and she took one in her mouth in a very old-fashioned manner, and inadvertently looked up just in time to see He Xin looking towards her, so she took Bai Wan's cigarette case and gestured to him.

He hurriedly waved his hand at the other party and smiled in thanks.

The other party didn't mind, smiled slightly, and then lit a cigarette very skillfully, and began to swallow clouds and smoke, and at first glance, he knew that it was an old smoking gun.
