Chapter 329 of the text begins with a victory

Next chapter

One day in the 90s, Akira Kurosawa took out a videotape and told his producer, Masahiko Kumada, that a Chinese director had made a movie called "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", which was said to be a good shot, and asked him to watch it together. ←At that time, Akira Kurosawa and Masahiko Kumada didn't know anything about the background of the movie, but within a few minutes of the opening of the movie, it only showed the scene of the heroine's house, and Kurosawa said that this director is amazing. Masahiko Kumada said, "How did you see his skill so quickly? I haven't felt it yet." Kurosawa said that you can see that every corner of his lens is carefully arranged.

After watching the haunted scene of more than two minutes in the opening chapter of "Time and Space Warrior", Quentin has a judgment on Zhang Ran's control, just like Kurosawa said about Zhang Yimou, every corner of Zhang Ran's lens is carefully arranged.

This is a very good director!

The reporters didn't see the way as quickly as Quentin, but when the car chase began, they were immediately drawn to the tension. Zhang Rantong guò switches back and forth between subjective and objective shots, creating an excellent sense of substitution, and the reporters on the scene are engrossed in the movie, as if they are Jason and are being chased by a police car.

In the sky, Jason drove the car wildly, and a group of police cars behind him clung to it. There are a lot of cars in the sky, and the speed is fast, and the crazy Jason constantly creates thrilling scenes of screaming, causing the reporters in front of the screen to scream from time to time.

Nash's eyes were glued to the screen, his fists clenched and his breath was held, the movie was so exciting, it was breathless!

"This guy is very powerful, this kind of shot is done through guò special effects, and it is difficult to shoot a sense of speed with special effects shots, how did he do it?" Quentin's evaluation of Zhang Ran has gone up a notch, no longer a high-level director, but a very powerful director.

As Quentin said, it's hard to capture that sense of speed with this kind of special effects shot, like the car chase scene in Luc Besson's film "The Fifth Element", which is very clumsy and lacks the sense of speed of the car racing on the ground.

But "Time Warrior" has a sense of speed, with Jason driving a car in front of him and a police car chasing after him. Crashing, rolling, braking, the whole action is extremely cool. This is mainly because Zhang Ran adopted the shooting method of green screen and synthesis, first using a green car to shoot on the ground, and then deducting the green after filming to synthesize. It's a lot more troublesome to shoot this way, but the effect is better.

Tsui Hark next to him looked at it with straight eyes: "This action, the camera, and the sense of speed and power are so exciting!"

He is the best at using movie special effects among Chinese filmmakers, but compared to the film in front of him, Tsui Hark feels that the special effects he played in "Shu Mountain" are simply child-level tricks!

Jason's car was forced by a police car to quickly lower to the ground. But he didn't stop and started racing all the way around the city. The city's streets are narrow, and the view is even narrower, and Jason's car escape causes all kinds of accidents. Slamming the doors of sports cars into the air, knocking strollers into the air, crashing into other cars, the exclamations of men and the screams of women rang out in the screening room from time to time.

At this moment, all the audience had a sense of suffocation, and the tense atmosphere in the screening hall was almost substantial, and it only took a few rubs to detonate.

The movie continues, and Zhang Ziyi's heavily armed SWAT uses an explosive device to blow up Jason's car. When the out-of-control car rolled and smashed at her, she dodged with a beautiful sideways turn. This action is very beautiful and attracts a burst of admiration from the audience.

The car chase scene finally ended, and the audience exhaled heavily. The same is true for Wu Wenbo, the movie scene is so hot that his heart is about to jump out, and if he doesn't relieve his nervous feelings, his heart attack will be stimulated.

"Time and Space Warrior" only opened for more than 20 minutes, creating a wave of blood boiling**, which made the audience's blood boil and let them enter the world of the movie. The whole scene chases from the sky to the ground, and the thrilling shots are one after another, creating an effect that makes people applaud, the whole opening is definitely a success, and it also whetts the audience's appetite, making everyone look forward to the next development of the movie.

Zhang Yimou was a little dumbfounded, he didn't know what to say, he didn't know much about special effects, but from a photographic point of view, it was perfect, the film used a wide-angle lens and a large depth of field lens to strengthen the lens tension, and the composition was dominated by the center composition, but when the picture was quickly assembled, a variety of composition methods were presented, and it was not short to guide the audience's attention to advance the movie, he really did use every frame of the picture to catch the audience.

"It's amazing, whether it's editing scheduling, character design, action design, or the actors' performances, it's all unexpectedly exciting, Zhang Ran can see his progress every time he makes a movie, it's a monster!" Park Chan-wook sighed as he looked at the screen.

Cui Minzhi said with some emotion: "I didn't expect Zhang Ran to shoot so well, compared with the scenes he filmed, the drag racing scenes filmed by our Korean directors are like children's plays, the gap is too big!"

The movie continues, and when Jason reopens his eyes, he is already in the hospital, and he is facing Dr. Alexander, played by Adrien Broady.

"You have severe schizophrenia and need immediate treatment. We have informed your family and they are happy to hear that someone is willing to pay for your treatment and they think it is necessary. Alexander shook the page in his hand, "This is your family's signature." Immediately, he pressed the button on the table, and in a few seconds four men in white coats entered.

"Take him to the third ward. He is a critically ill patient. Alexander pointed at Jason.

Jason was a little dazed, and it felt like he was in a dream. When four men came and grabbed his arm and walked outside, he woke up like a dream and began to resist: "I'm not sick, I can really see those shadows, they went into the wall." ”

It's just that he was shackled on his hands and feet, and the struggle didn't work at all, and he was dragged to the first ward by four men.

The camera switched, and the time was already two years later.

In the building where the special police were reloaded, Director Owen was assigning tasks to Zhang Ziyi.

Recently, a mysterious organization has risen called Freedom Paradise. In less than a year, this group has successively subverted no less than a dozen terrorist groups that the police have been helpless against, but no one knows what methods it used. During the year, the police had a good life, and good news came every day, but the police soon discovered that the power of this mysterious organization was growing, and anyone or organization that opposed the paradise of freedom was finally inexplicably attacked.

On a rainy night two months ago, Congressman Lau Hon-wai, who advocated a tougher stance on Paradise for Freedom, died suddenly at home. Another MP who held the same view as Lau Hon Wai a month ago also died in the streets, and now that the safety of MP Black is threatened, the secretary wants his right-hand man, Zhang Ziyi, to be responsible for protecting MPs.

Zhang Ziyi drove to Blake's villa, and as soon as she walked into the villa, she received news that Councilor Blake had been kidnapped. She hurried to the room where the prisoner was, where several police officers were pointing guns at the door and shouting loudly inside.

The flickering of the lights can be seen through the crack in the door, indicating that there is still movement inside. At the same time, some dull noises can be heard coming from inside the door from time to time, as if someone is struggling.

"You're already surrounded. A tall police officer shouted inside, "Immediately lay down your arms and come out and surrender!"

At this time, a miserable cry suddenly came from the door, Zhang Ziyi's face changed, and she directly shot the door lock, then kicked open the door and rushed in.

In the room, the councillor collapsed in a pool of blood, a knife piercing his chest. Beside him stood a man in a black cloak, wearing a mask of Cao Cao's face.

"Don't move, put your hands up!" a group of policemen yelled.

The camera turned, giving a close-up of the man in black. In the picture, the black cloak said in a strange voice, "Just you?"

Zhang Ziyi did not hesitate and shot directly at the black cloak. This is followed by a time-freezing shot, often referred to as bullet time. Zhang Ziyi's bullet hit the black cloak and passed through his body, but the black cloak was not injured, his body quickly faded, and then disappeared into thin air.

"Wow! Bullet time! This shot is cool!" Evan cried out impatiently.

Others felt the same way, but everyone was more surprised: "Who the hell is this black cloak, bullets don't work on him, and why did he suddenly disappear?"

"Isn't it the weirdo Jason met as a kid?"

Everyone wanted to know what was going on, and there was a lot of talk in the screening room.

The film continues, and Zhang Ziyi is instructed to report the assassination of Councillor Black to senior officials at the Heavy Criminal Police Headquarters. Most of the people in the room were her peers, but they were much higher in rank than her. There are also several elderly people in civilian clothes, including Dr. Jiang Zhexin, played by Leung Ka-fai.

The audience can't tell what their identity is, but from the attitude of the senior officials of the special police to them, it can be seen that their status is extremely respectful.

After Zhang Ziyi introduced the scene of the murder of the councilor, the faces of several old people present changed.

Liang Jiahui whispered to a few people next to him: "Terrible odds, we are in big trouble." ”

Zhang Ziyi looked at the group of people in confusion and discussed sternly, she didn't understand what was going on, and couldn't help but ask, "Can you tell me what's going on?"

The people who were discussing stopped and looked at Zhang Ziyi. After a while, Liang Jiahui said: "I'm sorry, this matter involves high-level government secrets, and you have no right to know." Now you can leave!"

Zhang Ziyi walked out of the conference room in a playful manner, but as she left, some conversation crept into her ears.

"Now there's only one other person, the one named Jason. Where does he live now?"

"Let me check ......"

Jason Zhang Ziyi suddenly remembered the man she had caught two years ago.

Zhang Ziyi returned to the office, inquired about Jason's situation, and checked Jason's message on the Internet two years ago, she was thinking about the connection, the phone rang, it was Director Owen calling: "This case will not be under our control in the future." There are other arrangements above. You put the file in order and prepare for handover. ”

Putting down the phone, Zhang Ziyi stood stunned for a long time, then walked out of the office and drove the motorcycle to the address of Jason's house.

Harvey made a big mistake, he shouldn't have fallen out with this director! Quentin knows the contradiction between Harvey and Zhang Ran, and he came to the scene today to see what kind of person Zhang Ran is. You must know that even the big Hollywood stars have to please Harvey, and Judi Dench even tattooed "Judi Dench loves Harvey" on her hip to show her gratitude to Harvey.

Now Quentin knows why Zhang Ran is not afraid of Harvey, no matter how powerful Harvey is, he can't cover the sky with one hand, and Zhang Ran is a person like you can cover him for a while, but you can't cover him for a lifetime, and some people are destined to shine! )
