Chapter 069 Legendary
At the beginning of March, after simply inviting Tan Wei and the five of them to have a meal, Deng Zheng officially joined the group.
According to the filming plan, the crew will first shoot in seven locations for nearly a month, and then return to Yuanming Film and Television City to shoot the rest of the film.
The first stop, and one that takes the longest, is the Northwest Grasslands.
Although the scenery is good, the conditions are very difficult. The crew stayed in one of the best hotels in the local town, and it was not enough to charter the entire hotel. Except for a few of the main creative staff who are in a single room, most of the staff are two or three people in a room.
Even if it is a single room, the conditions are really not very good, like the toilet in this room where Deng Zheng lives is a bit of a problem, the booming dry howl is not going into the water, and can only be flushed with a basin.
I tried it, and the network signal was not very stable, but I heard that it was not bad after 24 o'clock in the evening, and I could choose this time period to send the manuscript to Gu Weiyuan.
When Deng Zheng was fiddling with things, Jiang Zhipeng came in, observed his expression, and found that he didn't have anything unusual, and he was quite happy, and he immediately put his mind at ease. I patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, "No way, the conditions are like this, it's going to be hard for a few days! But it doesn't look good, if you really shoot, you know, let alone give you a bed, you can sleep on a three-legged stool!"
Deng Zheng smiled, pointed upstairs, and motioned for him to go up and have a look.
The only high-grade rooftop suite in the hotel was given to Fan Jia and Li Jin, the actor of another important female character, Jingming.
Although Fan Jia is famous, but fortunately, he kept laughing at himself and ridiculing and soothing his feelings along the way, but that Li Jin was obviously pampered, and his face was already covered with black gas after sitting in the car for nearly six hours, and when he entered the hotel door, he saw the bird-like appearance, and even the hot water for bathing had to wait until after 20 o'clock in the evening, so he directly covered his face and squatted on the ground and cried.
Now Li Jin's crying, the voice of her assistant and Fan Jia's persuasion, can still be faintly heard from above.
Jiang Zhipeng sighed, turned around and went upstairs, I don't know what Director Jiang used, so Li Jin soon stopped crying. Deng Zheng said in his heart, this trick is good, I have time to discuss and exchange.
On the one hand, some of the equipment and equipment did not arrive in the follow-up, and on the other hand, everyone also needed to adapt to the climate and life here, and adjust their personal state and feelings.
After all the main creators and staff of the crew arrived, in the evening, everyone had a dinner together at the largest restaurant in the town and got to know each other.
During the dinner, Deng Zheng found out that he thought that the crew should be most interested in the beautiful female stars Fan Jia and Li Jin, but while eating, he found that everyone's attention was more on himself, as if he was some fresh monster with horns.
But after thinking about it carefully, I understand it, after all, the big guys are filming from south to north, and no matter how beautiful and temperamental the female stars are, I have seen a lot of female stars, but I have really never met anyone who is the original author, screenwriter, and male protagonist.
Especially most of the crew have read the original work of "Ping Trace", and they also know the popularity of this book, and their respect and favor for Deng Zheng's writer Jin Liang's identity are far from being comparable to ordinary little stars.
Seeing that there was no arrogance on his face, and he did not show the slightest frustration and dissatisfaction in this difficult environment, he happily laughed with everyone, and the smile was very sincere.
Filming began at 8 a.m. the next day, and was divided into two groups, civil and military, to shoot at the same time.
Because the martial arts drama on location here is the most important, director Jiang Zhipeng is in charge of the film, and the literary drama is in charge of another assistant director.
At half past six in the morning, Qi Ye, the martial arts instructor of the crew and a well-known person in the industry, who got up from a hazy sleepiness to prepare the horses, just arrived downstairs and found that Deng Zheng had actually come back from a morning run outside, and he was stunned, and he forgot to respond to Deng Zheng's greeting him. It wasn't until Deng Zheng went upstairs that he came back to his senses and secretly smacked his tongue, this young man is not an ordinary person, it's a bit interesting!
When I arrived at the filming location in the morning and started filming, Qi Ye, a well-known short-tempered and cannon barrel in the industry, understood what Director Jiang meant, "Listen to Deng Zheng's opinion if you have questions"!
Good guy, this kid has solid basic skills, he is very good at fighting, and he is even more amazing at designing martial arts movements! If you fight like this, it is safe, and the effect is handsome and beautiful!
In fact, where would Deng Zheng design any martial arts moves, he just did some polishing. Although there are no martial arts movies in this world, there are still kung fu movies, and they are all hard-bridged and hard-horse, very high-level fighting movies. Like this martial arts team led by Qi Ye, when filming the scenes of the great war in historical dramas, the basic skills are very solid immediately, and Qi Ye himself is also one of the top martial arts instructors in the industry, and his professional level is just right.
But although the martial arts movements he designed are very energetic and solid, they are not chic and beautiful enough, and they do not have the charm of poetic rivers and lakes, but they are like life and death fights in the ring!
Deng Zheng made some adjustments on the basis of his design, removed some difficult but not good-looking films, and added some parts of "flower fists and embroidered legs" according to the personal characteristics of the characters, such as Zhang Danfeng is going to play chic, downright, and show a famous style; Yun Lei, nicknamed "Scattered Flower Woman", is beautiful and elegant, like a butterfly wearing flowers......
In this way, combined with the shooting adjustment of the lens camera, it not only greatly reduces the difficulty of shooting, but also captures the strong martial arts charm and beauty.
As a result, the entire crew was shocked to find that in just one day, Qi Ye, who had always served Jiang Zhipeng alone, was actually mixed up with Deng Zheng......
And three days later, Deng Zheng seems to have become a legend of the crew, and he is very respected and respected from top to bottom:
filming, no more than three, and most of the reasons for the reshoot are that the shots are not accurate, which is simply genius-like saving. However, Deng Zheng knows his own business, he can't talk about any acting skills at all, eighty percent is just imitating, because he has little ambition in this regard, and he has made sufficient preparations in advance, but things are simple.
Take the initiative to learn, don't have any shelves, no matter where the drama, costumes, props, and cameras are needed, he always happily takes the initiative to come over to help, and asks if he doesn't understand, and seems to be very curious about the things around him.
During the day, when there is a break in the middle of filming, or when there is no role for him for a while, unlike other actors who lie on the chair and doze off, or play games with their mobile phones, he is either familiar with the script, or he is writing a book with a computer notebook.
When I go back to the hotel in the evening, I am either studying my homework or typing on the keyboard and writing books in front of the computer, and I never participate in the bonfires, cards, or drinks organized by those young actors. And the lights never went out before half past twelve, but in the morning more than one person found him getting up at half past five punctual for a run......
