Chapter 730: One Step Ahead is Crazy
The time is slowly moving from late May to mid-June, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe clear sky made the actors sweat one by one.
However, no one complained.
"Rest and come back later!"
In the grove outside the Shaolin Temple, the crew set up a location set, the scale of the set does not seem to be small, even if you use a panoramic lens, you can see a figure flashing in a place that stretches for a mile or two. In order to film this scene, Wu Cheng also specially contacted the top leaders of the province and applied for a helicopter from the military region to come over and shoot a top-down shot.
Plot: The villain Wang Ren led a team of soldiers and horses to hunt down Li Shimin here.
For the next scene of the fight scene, Wu Cheng used a lot of group performances, at least thousands of people. However, these labors are not expensive, and if one person gives three or five yuan, they will be covered in a day's time. As for the money for eating, it's really not expensive.
Of course, the money for clothing is actually not expensive, but those garment factories in the city smiled from ear to ear when they received the order, after all, Wu Cheng's list is really not small.
And these costumes and props are naturally not disposable, and they can be recycled and reused in retrospect. He originally planned to build an entertainment company here, and then left Zhang Xinyan, who still needed to shoot two more sister chapters of "Shaolin Temple", in the mainland and temporarily acted as the head of the company.
As for the real person in charge of the mainland, Wu Chengxin has not yet designated a person in his heart.
This needs to be looked for slowly, and I can't rush it for a while.
Anyway, the current focus is not too biased to this side, so it doesn't matter if Zhang Xinyan is in charge. Speaking of which, during this period in the mainland, there are really no waves.
If it weren't for the original time and space "Shaolin Temple" to start filming this year, Wu Cheng really didn't want to go to the mainland so early, it was really inconvenient.
"I'm sorry, director, I didn't grasp it!" Li Lianjie was a little embarrassed.
Wu Cheng waved his hand and put away his temper, because there was still the second daughter sitting next to him, and the second daughter was sitting quietly next to her father, staring at the director's monitor with a pair of eyes, looking very interested. Anyway, her daughter is very quiet and doesn't toss people, so Wu Cheng naturally won't refuse to take her daughter with her. What's more, there is her mother watching over her.
"It's okay, I'm used to it anyway!" Wu Cheng said with a smile, but Li Lianjie listened to it and became even more embarrassed. And Zhen Bullet on the side, he didn't dare to laugh at him anymore at this time.
Because Zhen Dan is usually ridiculed by Wu Cheng, although he is a supporting role, he is not completely without scenes. After being hit by Wu Cheng a few times, he also restrained a lot.
Wu Cheng smiled, then beckoned to several other action actors, and said, "Come here, let's talk!"
The whole play, about the literary dramas in the Shaolin Temple, is now all completed, and the rest are some fighting scenes and location scenes.
Speaking of which, this speed is really not fast. In about a month, only those literary dramas about Shaolin were filmed.
In most action movies, literary drama is actually not too important, but it turned out that this not too important literary drama actually wasted a month of his time.
If you add the usual holidays, more than a month is over. This does not include the vacation he gave to the crew on Wu Cheng's daughter's birthday. That day happened to be Children's Day, and Wu Cheng took his daughter and Lin Qingxia to go shopping in the city.
However, for these people who practice martial arts, the fight scene is actually better to film, provided that these people are not injured. Therefore, when Wu Cheng asked them to shoot those action scenes, he would first let a few action directors rehearse and familiarize themselves with all the actors' movements before starting filming, so as to minimize the accidents that occurred during filming. If there is really any accident, it is really not a good thing for the crew.
In the original time and space, Li Lianjie was injured when he was filming this film, but now, so far, it is not bad, and he has not suffered any serious injuries.
"When the filming starts, do what I said before, you've rehearsed many times before, don't be nervous, just do it as you did during the rehearsal. Even if you get a camera, you can do it all over again if you make a mistake, so don't be too stressed. ”
Hearing this, everyone nodded, Wu Cheng looked at Ji Chunhua, a fierce-looking guy, and said with a smile: "And Chunhua, when you show your eagle claw skills for a while, don't habitually make that starting action like during rehearsals, and before fighting, don't call out 'ah', it's too ugly." A master must have the demeanor of a master, this is not a comedy or comedy, there is no need to pose for anything, as soon as he shoots, he must be like wind and lightning, and do not give the other party a chance to dodge, this is the demeanor that a master of eagle claw skills should have. ”
In the original film, Ji Chunhua did pose a lot of poses when he showed his eagle claw skills, and when he started fighting, he had to scream, which was really stupid from the perspective of later generations.
Even more stupid, he still has a weapon like an eagle rake.
Wu Cheng clapped his hands and said, "This is the first scene of our location action scene, everyone cheers up." The fighting scenes in this play are different from those previous kung fu films, in this play I tried to use the new school of martial arts action play, adding some slightly exaggerated artistic elements to the realistic action, and strive to make the whole play look more different. This is an attempt, but also a breakthrough, if successful, this film will surely become the beginning of a new school of martial arts movies, and you will be recorded in film history. So, cheer up!"
The new school of action has long appeared on the side of Xiangjiang, which Cheng Xiaodong knows very well, as for the new school of martial arts, although Cheng Xiaodong did not know what it was before, but now, he has also learned some of Wu Cheng's thoughts from Wu Cheng.
These thoughts made Cheng Xiaodong feel a little excited when he thought about it, and he couldn't wait to go back and make a martial arts film now, showing his various thoughts and thoughts about the new school of martial arts movements.
In fact, although this "Shaolin Temple" has added a new style of martial arts, in Cheng Xiaodong's view, this style of play is still biased towards realism, although the speed has accelerated, but the shadow of the routine is still very obvious. He felt that these places could be improved a little more, and the shadow of the routine could be hidden deeper, or even erased directly.
But obviously, Wu Cheng would not agree to his idea, because Wu Cheng didn't know, if he really followed his idea...... He, a time-traveler who came from later generations, is completely acceptable, but for today's audience, is it really acceptable? Is the level of acceptance as high as that of the original time and space? If not, then it is really shooting himself in the foot.
Isn't it the old saying? Half a step ahead is a genius, and one step ahead is a madman.
Wu Cheng doesn't care if he is a madman, but if the box office of the movie "Shaolin Temple" is damaged because of this, it is definitely not what he wants to see.
Moreover, he filmed "Shaolin Temple", because he naturally needs to present the kung fu of Shaolin Temple in front of everyone, so this routine is definitely needed.
Since Shaolin Kung Fu needs to present routines, other Kung Fu naturally can't do without routines, otherwise, it will be a bit nondescript.
Yes, Wu Cheng can only make a compromise.
As for Cheng Xiaodong's thoughts, Wu Cheng could only let him leave them for the next play. Maybe if you cooperate with the mustachioed Chen Xunqi, you can also carry the banner of the new school of martial arts!
As for the original time and space, Xu Laowei, the standard-bearer of the new school of martial arts, Wu Cheng could only say sorry to him.
Originally, he also thought about recruiting this guy to participate in the filming of "Shaolin Temple", but this guy had his own drama to film, so he rejected Wu Cheng's proposal, and in the end, Wu Cheng could only forget it.
It's better to wait for him to shoot the "Once Upon a Time" series in the future and cooperate with Li Lianjie!
"Exterior Scene 1, Act 1, Scene 3, Filming Begins!"
Chen Kaige took the field card, shouted loudly, 'carded', and closed the field card.
After a while, the crew continued to shoot, and four cameras had been used at this time, of which Zhang Yimou also controlled one. As for Chen Kaige, some of them wrote on the spot, some wrote assistants on the spot, and some were Wu Cheng's assistant director.
Several people were very diligent, so that the assistant director Zhang Xinyan seemed to have nothing to do, so he went to be the logistics director.
The actor was buried, and Wang Ren led the soldiers to surround the Shaolin Temple and hunt down Li Shimin.
Under Wu Cheng's order, everyone moved, even those group performances, their expressions became serious, so as not to turn around and be scolded by this rich boss.
Of course, the more important thing for them is the fear of being deducted from their wages.
When a few Shaolin monks were surrounded by the soldiers in the middle of Tallinn, Du Kefeng pushed the camera to move forward along the track, and when the camera was in place, the lines followed.
One of the warrior monks laughed, and Wang Ren roared, "What are you laughing at, what are you running?"
"Help the general arrest the prisoners!" said the warrior monk Hangerlang.
Behind the monitor, Wu Cheng nodded slightly.
At this time, there was a voice from outside the field: "The Qin prisoner ran to the back mountain!", and then I saw Yu Chenghui, who played Wang Renze, raised his head suddenly, revealing his eyes like an eagle and a falcon, and gritted his teeth and said: "Chase!"
Then everyone moved again.
"Ka!" Wu Cheng shouted and said, "Yes, this scene is over, your group will take a rest first." Applejack, check the costumes and props again......"
In this way, the time slowed from June to July.
"Ah Cheng, Ah Zhi and the others are also about to have a holiday, do you want to go back to Xiangjiang?"
On this day, Lin Qingxia asked Wu Cheng in private.
Wu Cheng thought for a while and said, "It's good to go back! I haven't seen them for a long time, and I originally said that I would go over to see them when I have time......!"
Wu Cheng was somewhat embarrassed. (To be continued.) )
