The difference between the mainland crew and the Xiangjiang crew is very big, for example, when Lin Cheng was filming "Infernal Affairs" in Xiangjiang, it only took half a month from the start to the finish, which can be described as fast. Ｘ

However, Lin Cheng is not the fastest, the fat man Wang Jing is faster than Lin Cheng, he can shoot eleven dramas a year when he is at the peak, and he can even complete a simple commercial film in a week.

On the other hand, mainland crews, especially directors of Zhang Yimou's level, often pursue slow work and meticulous work, and making a film a year is considered highly productive, and most of the time it takes two or three years to make a film.

The drama "Hero" actually takes the route of a co-production, and the producers are not only Feilong Media and the new picture company founded by Lao Mouzi and his partner Zhang Weiping, but also Anle Pictures from Xiangjiang.

Speaking of Anle Pictures, no one may know, but when it comes to Jiang Zhiqiang, the boss of Anle Pictures, it is awesome, almost all Chinese films want to be distributed in North America, they have to follow Jiang Zhiqiang's path.

Feilong Media's two consecutive big productions "Hero" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" also have to be released in North America from Jiang Zhiqiang's channels, Lin Cheng is also very helpless, his film company is still too shallow, so he can only give Jiang Zhiqiang money in vain.

"Hero" did not have many filming scenes in Jiuzhaigou, mainly filming the battle of ideas in the lake between Nameless played by Li Lianjie and Remnant Sword played by Liang Chaowei, which was originally expected to be filmed in a week, but at that time, Liang Chaowei and Liu Jialing suddenly terminated the contract and left, which made the drama stop suddenly.

Now that Andy Lau and Guan Zhilin are in place, the drama "Hero" has finally been launched again.

……

The next morning, the sky was cloudless, which was a good time to shoot outdoor scenes.

Lin Cheng followed the crew of "Hero" to the suffocating beauty of Jiuzhaigou, the lake surface is like a flawless mirror, reflecting the lush mountains, as soon as he saw this incomparably beautiful picture, Lin Cheng couldn't hold back, picked up his own high-definition pixel camera, and took several photos in a row.

At this time, a blonde foreigner walked over, glanced at the photo taken by Lin Cheng, shook his head again and again, and said, "Nono, you shot from the wrong angle, you should shoot like this." ”

After the photo came out of the camera, Lin Cheng picked it up and took a look, and it was much more beautiful than his own shot.

Zhang Yimou came to Lin Cheng's side and enthusiastically introduced to Lin Cheng: "This is Mr. Christopher Doyle, a cinematographer from Australia, who has won the best cinematography of the three European awards, and is the most powerful cinematographer in Chinese films." ”

Hearing the name Christopher Doyle, Lin Cheng immediately stood in awe, this foreigner is the most awesome cinematographer Lin Cheng knew in his previous life, the best cinematography can be won at the three major European film awards, and the Golden Horse Award is even softer, as long as he participates in the filming, he can be nominated for the best cinematography award at worst.

Christopher Doyle returned the camera to Lin Cheng, Lin Cheng took beautiful scenery according to Christopher Doyle's teachings, and the photos that came out were really much better, Lin Cheng hurriedly thanked Christopher Doyle and taught himself.

After the preparations were over, the movie started filming immediately, Li Lianjie and Andy Lau, who had already put on makeup, were flying around on the lake with Weiya, and they did look very beautiful, and the martial arts instructor Cheng Xiaodong's martial arts movements were as elegant and beautiful as ever.

It's just that Lin Cheng is familiar with the script and knows that this fight is a fragment imagined by Qin Shi Huang, and the fight between the two is still the so-called ideological fight, so the original excitement immediately stopped.

Lin Cheng really wants to complain about Lao Mouzi and his royal screenwriters Li Feng and Wang Bin, this one is distributed by Jiang Zhiqiang, directed by Zhang Yimou, photographed by Christopher Doyle, Cheng Xiaodong Wuzhi, Tan Dun produced music, plus Li Lianjie, Liang Chaowei, Zhang Manyu, Zhang Ziyi, Chen Zhiming, this group of starring, can be said to be the most peak production lineup of Chinese films.

But the content of the story they made up was extremely empty, and several extremely well-filmed fights were battles that took place in their minds, in fact, both sides of the battle seemed to have been pointed at by someone, standing motionless.

In this life, Lin Cheng took out the script of "Hero", don't look at him complaining about the bad script of "Hero", but this thing has not changed at all, and has copied the exact same plot of "Hero" in his previous life.

It's just that he was afraid that he would be scolded by others after the filming of "Hero", so the screenwriter's name used the vest of Kuaike in the clouds, and let the vest bear the blame.

It's not that Lin Cheng doesn't want to produce an original script for "Hero", it's just that he lacks ability, and in his previous life, "Hero" achieved incomparably brilliant box office results, and the film was worse than in his previous life after he made the changes.

However, what is surprising is that "Hero" was scolded in China, but it was well received in North America, with a box office of more than 50 million US dollars and DVD sales of more than 20 million US dollars, which was unanimously praised by the Western media as a milestone film that opened the era of Chinese blockbusters, and was even rated as the first of the world's top ten films in 2004 by the Times magazine of American imperialism.

During the filming process, although Lao Mouzi was already the number one director in China, he still frequently consulted Lin Cheng's opinion, after all, Lin Cheng's "Infernal Affairs" has received extremely high box office records in Xiangjiang and the mainland.

In the field of commercial films, Lao Mouzi thinks that he is just a primary school student and has too many things to learn.

At this time, Lao Mouzi was tired of winning awards for literary films, and was seeking to transform into a commercial film director.

In fact, as early as 1989, Lao Mouzi tested the waters of a commercial film, Lin Cheng had seen it on CCTV in his previous life, called "Code Name Jaguar".

This film gathers Uncle Ge and Gong Huang, the two top actors and actresses in China, as well as the powerful actor Wang Xueqi, the lineup is not strong, but after the release, it was sprayed out by the national audience, and Lao Mouzi was so frightened that he quickly erased his director's name, pulled Yang Fengliang to take the blame, and said that this film was directed by Yang Fengliang.

During the day, the fight scene on the lake ended smoothly, and at night, the crew of "Hero" filmed another indoor scene, which was a boat scene in which the remnant sword played by Andy Lau deliberately applauded Ruyue played by Li Shuangbing in order to stimulate the couple Feixue, and the two rolled around in the red curtain, which was very exciting.

Although he and Li Shuangbing are just ticket friends, Lin Cheng still feels very uncomfortable after watching this boat show, but what makes him embarrassed is that after watching this boat play, the little brother actually hardened slightly, which made Lin Cheng angry.

After the crew finished work late at night, Lin Cheng used the excuse to dump Zhilin, sneaked to Li Shuangbing's room, and shot her hard.
