Chapter 85: Group Portrait
In other words, the shape of the movie "Huang Feihong" is actually quite simple, after all, it belongs to a period drama, and it is designed according to the shape of the late Qing Dynasty.
The shape of the late Qing Dynasty, braids, long shirts and cloth shoes.
If you want to say that there are domestic martial arts actors, there is really no one else who can play Huang Feihong's kind of grandmaster temperament except Li Lianjie.
However, after Wu Jing finished putting on makeup, with his height of 1.75 meters, he was at least slightly taller than Li Lianjie in terms of momentum.
The reason why Xu Hui identified Wu Jing was not only because there was no better choice, but also because Wu Jing was very similar to Li Lianjie.
all debuted with a baby face, and their debut was the male number one!
In terms of martial arts skills, Wu Jing is also good at the northern school of martial arts, the northern school of martial arts pays attention to opening and closing, and the lens display effect is much better than that of the southern school of martial arts.
As for the character of Liang Kuan, Xu Laowei was originally going to make him a screen image that was not weaker than Huang Feihong, so he found Yuan Biao to play it.
In the early nineties, Yuan Biao was not weaker than Li Lianjie in terms of status, and at that time, the popularity of the eldest brother Cheng in Japan was not as good as Yuan Biao!
Xu Laowei once revealed in an interview that he initially thought that Di Long could play Huang Feihong, representing "traditional Chinese stubbornness", and Zhou Yunfa could play Liang Kuan, representing "market mentality", and "the contrast and conflict between the two would be very beautiful".
Zhou Yan played Liang Kuan, which shows how high he has made Liang Kuan's status!
In Guan Dexing's version of "Huang Feihong", Liang Kuan has the most scenes, even more than the protagonist Huang Feihong, and it is estimated that Yuan Biao took over this role with the idea that he could shine.
In terms of scripts, including dramas, Liang Kuan was still given a lot of color, and there were a lot of entanglements with Aunt Thirteen in the first part, including with Yan Zhendong, which led to a series of villains, which is a very important line, not one of them, the first plot basically relied on him!
It's a pity that Huang Feihong is played by Li Lianjie, judging from the effect presented by the movie, Li Lianjie's protagonist aura is too strong, and it deeply suppresses the light that belongs to Liang Kuan.
So the second part found Mo Shaocong to play it, and Liang Kuan was completely reduced to a supporting role.
When Deng Chao received the script, Xu Hui wrote very clearly in the script: supporting actor: Liang Kuan;
To be honest, Deng Chao is now one of the best in the mainland, with the blessing of the male protagonist of "Embroidered Spring Knife", how can he play the male lead in a big production.
Even Feng Xiaogang didn't care about his previous suspicions of "Tangshan Earthquake" and asked him to play the second male Fangda!
Of course, what matters is his box office appeal!
Deng Chao considered resigning from "Huang Feihong", after all, he still has "The Four Famous Catches" in his hand, which is the work of director Chen Jiashang, and he is the male number one.
However, when I thought of the original filming of "Embroidered Spring Knife", Xu Hui said, 'In the future, Brother Wu Jing will be the protagonist, and Brother Chao will be a supporting role!'
Even if he made the original promise after he finished, he had to take this role!
……
The first scene was filmed in the afternoon, and Pao Hui thought about the first scene, a good omen, so he picked a scene in the teahouse, that is, the scene where Huang Feihong and Aunt Thirteen appeared at the official beginning of the movie.
Well, the director wants to try the acting skills of the female number one...
The actors are already in place, this is a group drama, the actor who plays the goduncle is Yingda, just a few lines, Xu Hui is embarrassed to trouble others, however, a big-budget movie must always have a few old drama bones that can really hold up the scene, Xu Hui still cheekily visited Renyi and pulled a few old drama bones.
is not only Yingda, but the actor Xu Hui, who plays Lao Zhao, that is, the one who died the bird, found Yang Lixin;
Liu Yongfu, Xu Hui found He Bing...
It's all old drama bones!
These old drama bones read Xu Hui's script of "Huang Feihong", as well as a thick pile of character biographies, knowing how big this product is this time, and they are also happy to help him, of course, Mr. Wu Gang's role as a lobbyist also accounts for a large part of the reason.
However, after all, these people have their own jobs, that is, the performance of Renyi dramas, so Xu Hui has to end the scenes of these actors in three days so that they can be let go back, which is also the reason for filming this section on the first day of filming.
The other actors are all looking for a group performance in the local area, and what this scene wants to show is the chaos in Foshan at the end of the Qing Dynasty, so these crowd actors don't need to do anything, just sit in the teahouse and brag.
This scene is subdivided into three sections, and there is a vision, that is, the whistle of the steamer at sea, which can be added later;
There is a wave of scenes downstairs, showing the busyness and chaos of the streets of Foshan in the late Qing Dynasty: people come and go on the streets, there are prisoners escorted by officers and soldiers to the execution ground, and there are also Western religions preaching, singing loudly the church song 'Hallelujah', coming and going just this sentence...
According to the normal way of thinking, if you have enough time or Xu Hui is not willing to delegate power, you can finish filming the upstairs scene first, and then shoot the downstairs scene.
Xu Hui has never been this kind of director, and he is very willing to promote new directors.
The scene on the street was in charge of Lu Yang, the director of crew B, of course Xu Hui knew who Lu Yang was, so he brought him to Huang Feihong's crew to serve as his second-in-command, that is, the assistant director.
In about half an hour, the crew was ready.
A dozen boards: "Action!"
The camera scanned every actor present like a diffusion, restoring the world at the end of the Qing Dynasty to the greatest extent...
"Click!"
Less than three seconds after the camera was turned on, Xu Hui stood up directly from behind the monitor and walked to a group performer: "Hide the gold necklace around your neck and don't show it!"
Not to mention whether anyone in the Qing Dynasty wore a gold necklace, the key is that the graphic of this necklace is actually the style of the Olympic Fuwa, have you crossed it?
"Check again, there must be no mistakes!"
This sentence was addressed to the group performers present.
Nanhai Film and Television City is not as good as Hengdian, there are not too many group performances, but there are also a lot, being able to participate in "Huang Feihong" is definitely the goal of many group performances, if Xu Hui can be seen as popular and play a supporting role or something, maybe he can be like Wang Baobao Cheng Hong!
Hehe, the baby is not only popular, but also green, and the key is to let the people of the whole country know...
After tossing for more than ten minutes, filming started again.
The camera swept over the group portrait of the actors, and the voice of the group performance came: "Zhang Weng, you are majestic now, you can do business with foreign devils!"
A close-up of Yingda appeared on the camera, he was holding a pipe in his hand, and his expression was slightly proud: "No way, I can't eat in my hometown, so I have to go to England to be a horse, hehe..."
"Lao Zhao brought a chaise finch to take a picture with you, this bird has been out of the limelight recently!"
Xu Hui stared at the monitor, and a lively cyan chaise bird was bouncing around in the cage...
"Take pictures, little meaning, later, you can have a few too!"
"It's really a drag on you!"
"Click!"
Xu Hui nodded, the old drama bones are different, regardless of whether Yingda has any problems in life, at least people are very measured when acting, and the expressions of the two group actors are quite rich.
It's very life-like.
