Chapter 724: "Shaolin Temple" is turned on

After coming to the mainland, it has been more than 20 days, staying in Wu Zhicheng's hometown for a week, then going to the provincial capital for two days, and then going to Lin Qingxia's hometown for a few days, and then going to the capital for a few days. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

From mid-April to early May, the drama "Shaolin Temple" finally started.

On this day, Wu Cheng took the crew up and down, under the auspices of the host abbot Master Xingzheng, to offer incense to the Buddha, bless the crew with peace and security, and finish filming smoothly.

In the past, when I was in Xiangjiang, as soon as the crew started, they all started to worship God, but now if they go to the mainland to play this set, people in the mainland will definitely be a little resistant, after all, they have just played "Breaking the Four Olds" not long ago. However, it seems reasonable to worship the Buddha.

After worshipping the Buddha, Wu Cheng pulled back the red silk covering the camera and said, "The first scene is shooting!" The camera rack is outside the door of the main hall, facing the murals in the hall.

The murals are all scenes of Shaolin monks practicing martial arts, and as the camera moves, these scenes are also recorded by the camera.

Because most of the actors are newcomers, in this first scene, Wu Cheng did not shoot any actors' performances, but directly asked people to shoot these murals that needed to appear in the movie as the first scene of the filming.

Although the Shaolin Temple is indeed very desolate, many buildings are also seriously damaged, and the incense in the temple is not prosperous, but because Hao Juan and they came here to do a lot of preparations, most of the scenes that need to be used in the play have been restored very well.

Therefore, filming this scene, the crew does not need to go to other places to shoot at all.

In the original time and space, when the crew of "Shaolin Temple" was filming this scene, many murals were taken from other temples. But now, Wu Cheng they don't need it at all.

Take the shot of the scene as the first shot of the crew, so that the first shot will be much smoother, and it can be regarded as a good luck for the crew!

Although there are some suspicions of opportunism.

After filming these murals, everyone moved to the practice room, where two projectors had set up cameras, and one of them was recording the murals on the wall.

On the mural are 500 Arhats painted vividly.

Seeing Wu Cheng coming in, the camera also stopped working and looked at Wu Cheng.

After Wu Cheng saw that everything was ready, he said: "Everyone prepare, let's start shooting in five minutes, it was a trick before, and the next scene is the real first act of the movie "Shaolin Temple", Ajie, bullets, are you ready?"

This scene is the scene where the protagonist of the film is practicing martial arts with other brothers in the practice room, and the others Wu Cheng are not too worried, because there will not be many shots for them, but the protagonist, as well as the supporting role played by Zhen Dan, Wu Cheng needs to pay attention to it.

Zhen Dan's role is the Wukong who plays with a stick, and this role has already been decided, of course, it is different from the actor in the original time and space.

However, after Wu Cheng saw it, he directly replaced him with Zhen Bullet. And this actor is going to play tricks, anyway, the salary will not be less than his.

After the guy got paid, he didn't think much of it, and agreed to it.

If this kind of thing happens in the future life, although people will not complain on their lips, they will definitely have different ideas in their hearts, and they may even directly refuse to play the role of the dragon.

In fact, this is also because during this period, the mainland is really poor, and it is already very powerful to be able to earn a few yuan a day, let alone get a few hundred yuan directly!

These days, Li Lianjie and Zhen Dan are also practicing with the monks in the temple...... Although there are only thirteen monks left in the temple, there are still a few who practice martial arts.

Following those monks to do morning exercises every day, they found that compared to others, their previous training volume seemed to have nothing to be proud of.

However, neither of them is the kind of person who will complain about it, although they are tired, but they have persevered in the past few days, especially Zhen Dan, he directly regarded this as a challenge.

In addition to them, the actors who were pulled from other martial arts teams also followed the training, but the amount was not as big as theirs.

As soon as the five-minute break passed, the real first act of the movie started, and the idle people withdrew from the camera, and then Wu Cheng gave an order and officially started filming.

It is said that when Zhang Xinyan was filming this play, although Yu Hai could be regarded as the action director of this play, in fact, Yu Hai, a guy who had never served as an action director before, actually failed to fulfill his responsibilities.

According to Ji Chunhua, the villain who plays the vulture, when they were filming this drama, there was no real action director, and no one told them how to fight, that is, several actors discussed how to come for a while before the filming started, and then the director gave them a time regulation and let them fight blindly...... I have to say that the skills of these people are still very thick, and they can play so well even if they fight blindly.

Just like in the "Slaying the Wolf" that Zhen Dan later played, the battle between him and Wu Jing didn't seem to say how to fight in advance. But after watching the whole play, the excitement of that fight is definitely not inferior to any one, and even surpasses it.

It can also be said that sometimes, the on-the-spot performance of actors is still very important.

But now, it is impossible for Wu Cheng to waste film to make them fight blindly, and directly put Yu Hai, Cheng Xiaodong, Yu Chenghui, plus himself, and the four of them form a martial arts team to design the fight scenes of this play. Everyone is a person who practices martial arts, and Wu Cheng still has countless wonderful fight scenes of action movies in his mind, so it is not too easy to design some wonderful actions.

"Drink, ha, ......"

With the shouts of these 'warrior monks', they stepped into the sunken brick pit, which was the pit they usually stepped on on the brick surface when they practiced martial arts.

In the shot, the protagonist practices very seriously, and his small muscles are also quite developed, I have to say that throughout Li Lianjie's so many films, this "Shaolin Temple" is the one he shows off his muscles the most.

is different from Zhen Bullet, in later generations, he took an elegant and elegant route, and he couldn't match his muscles at all. It's Zhen Dan, who will show off his well-developed muscles from time to time.

"Camera number two, focusing on the hole at the protagonist's feet, Applejack, remember what I told you about 'slow motion'? ”

Phew-

Li Lianjie's feet slowly stepped into the pit, and when he stepped into the pit, he suddenly increased his strength, and the power was so great that the dust in the pit flew up.

Here Wu Cheng felt that a slow motion was needed to show its power.

However, at this time, the camera technology was not so high, and slow motion shooting was not as simple as in later generations. In later generations, mobile phones can make slow-motion special effects.

But now, the only way to do this is to use the most earthy method, which is to use artificial slow motion, and then cooperate with some functions of the camera, plus post-editing techniques.

Of course, although slow-motion shots can be done in this way, the effect is definitely not comparable to the slow-motion shots under the high-tech of later generations.

But there is no way, who said that the level of science and technology in this period is like this!

A few minutes later, Wu Cheng directly clapped his hands and shouted, "Yes, this scene is over!"

In fact, these boxing routines are not too simple for Li Lianjie and them. After all, it's not a fight, and there won't be too many surprises.

In the next few days, the crew filmed some of the protagonist's practice pictures. These pictures will not be too difficult for Li Lianjie and them.

This is also a step-by-step process for Li Lianjie and Zhen Bullet.

After these shots were filmed, when Wu Cheng was about to start filming the plot, he heard the news that someone from the island had come to visit Shaolin.

The people who brought the news to Wu Cheng were the staff sent here by the government and government.

In fact, during this period, there were more staff members from the government and government here than the monks in the temple. Of course, now more of them are the personnel of these crews.

"Ridao people?" Wu Cheng asked rhetorically with some confusion.

The man nodded and said, "Actually, that person came to our country a few years ago, and at that time he also asked the above to visit the Shaolin Temple, but was rejected by the leaders above. Later, Shaolin Temple was selected as the first batch of open scenic spots in China, which has something to do with this Sino-Japanese friendly diplomatic relationship. Last year, this one ran over again and wanted to visit the Shaolin Temple again, but the top still didn't agree, but the Japanese island man was very persistent, saying that he had to go to it, so he reluctantly agreed. ”

Wu Cheng nodded and said, "He didn't come over at that time!"

The man nodded and said, "Obviously, he went back to prepare." At that time, there was already a road to Shaolin Temple, but I didn't expect Mr. Wu, your representative, Ms. Hao, to find the leader of the city government at this time, and the next thing, presumably Mr. Wu should also know from Ms. Hao. ”

Wu Cheng nodded, the doubts in his heart were somewhat solved, Ms. He, that is, Juanzi came here for Wu Cheng before, founded the Shaolin Temple Tourism Development Company, all the relationships ran down, they were very smooth, and they did not encounter too many obstacles.

Before, Wu Cheng thought that the leaders at this time were all practical people, everything was centered on economic construction, and it was extremely normal to be able to get such a large foreign investment, and happily agreed. Now it seems that this is a bit of a 'if you want to fall asleep, someone will send a pillow'!

Fortunately, Juanzi proposed that the road could be repaired by them, but after it was repaired, they would have to collect the 'toll' of the road in the future, just like the 'Longao Avenue' on the other side of the Xiangjiang River.

As a result, the city government directly rejected the proposal, jokingly, this is going to the mainland to collect 'tolls', right? If you really want to do this, you have to be poked in the back!

Of course, this is not the hereafter, and in the hereafter, it is extremely normal to do this. (To be continued.) )
