On July 1, 2009, Hengdian Film and Television City, "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage" officially started filming.

Because there had been a press conference in the studio before, this time Li Mu started it directly.

In fact, even if he holds another press conference, there will not be too many reporters coming, because just two days ago, Wanda announced that the new film "Let the Bullets Fly" directed by the famous director Jiang Wen was officially launched.

When the cast and salary of this movie came out, it immediately shocked the entire entertainment industry.

The actor Jiang Wen has a salary of 10 million.

The actor Ge Wei has a salary of 30 million.

The actor Chen Daoming has a salary of 15 million

The heroine Liu Jialing has a salary of 6 million.

Zhou Yun's salary is two million.

Xia Yu's salary is eight million.

Hu Jun's salary is 8 million.

Tong Dawei...

Jiangwu...

Liao Fan...

......

Coupled with other supporting roles and cameo Liang Jiahui and others, the salary alone is as high as more than 90 million, although the salaries of these people are a little premium, such as Jiang Wen and Chen Daoming are much higher than the market price, and Ge Wei is even more outrageous, although with the addition of Feng Xiaogang's cameo money, Huayi directly offered a sky-high price of 30 million, a premium of 10 million, but Wanda also pinched his nose and admitted it, who can't find a better candidate, and Wanda is not bad for this money.

Although the outside world has long expected that Wanda will definitely make a big move this year, there are more than ten light and shadow emperors in this movie, and such a huge lineup still scares everyone.

For a while, all the eyes of the whole of China, including Xiangjiang and Baodao, were on Wanda's new film, and I heard that the crew of "Let the Bullets Fly" is now filming in Mosan City, eastern Guangdong, and there are hundreds of reporters watching every day.

Li Mu is still a little unaccustomed to not paying so much attention this time, but it's good that no one bothered.

On the first day, the scenes in Chang'an City were filmed, and the crew rented the entire Tang Garden from Hengdian Film and Television Group for half a month.

There are not many scenes in this, half a month is enough to shoot well.

All morning, the crew was moving and inspecting items, including equipment, props, costumes, etc.

I ate something casually at noon, Li Mu officially started filming, this scene in the original version is the plot of the evening, but the ancients generally made it at sunrise and rested at sunset, and there was very little nightlife at night, generally only Qinglou was open at night, and Qinglou was not like in TV to pick up customers at night, generally the hacker had already come to the door every day, and Qinglou had a fixed business place, which is commonly known as Flower Street Willow Lane.

First of all, the crowd gathered and said two words.

"Everyone prepare, in an hour, the first scene of our movie will officially start filming, I hope we can have a good start!"

After more than an hour, Li Mu and action director and assistant director Qin Pengfei arranged the props and group performances and started filming.

Qin Pengfei was introduced to Li Mu by Lin Feng, because there were some action scenes in this movie, although he remembered the plot of the original version in his head, but he had no experience in filming action scenes at all, so he asked Lin Feng for advice.

Later, Lin Feng simply introduced him to an action director, Qin Pengfei was met when he was an action director in a movie.

That's Qin Pengfei, just an action director of his action director team.

Although Qin Pengfei is very young, only twenty-five years old, he has been engaged in this industry for seven or eight years, and he has been working as a martial artist since he came out of the martial arts school, and then slowly became an action director, which is enough for Li Mu.

"Attention departments!"

"Photography... Lamplight... Prop... The actors are in place. ”

"One shot in the eighth game, action!"

With Li Mu's order, the crew that had already been ready began to operate in an orderly manner.

On Tangyuan Street, the scorching sun is scorching in summer, and there are teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, and workshops on both sides of the street.

There are also many small vendors with large umbrellas in the open spaces on both sides of the street. The streets stretch east and west to the outskirts of the city, but the streets are still full of pedestrians: some carrying burdens, some driving ox carts to deliver goods, some driving donkeys to pull wagons.

The houses on both sides are lined up, with tea houses, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, temples, public houses and so on.

There are silk and satin, jewelry and spices, incense paper horses, etc., in addition to the medical clinic, car repair, fortune telling, face repair and plastic surgery, all walks of life, everything, the head of the big store is also tied "Cailou Huanmen", hang the market banner, solicit business, pedestrians in the market, shoulder to shoulder, the river is endless.

At this time, a stall on the side of the street was playing shadow puppetry, and a young student beat the gongs and cymbals loudly.

As soon as the adults and children in the neighborhood heard this voice, they hurriedly ran over to occupy a seat, and only those who came late stood on tiptoe in the back, and saw that there were three layers in the people and three layers outside, and the stall owner began to sing the opera with his unique southern Henan dialect.

This shadow puppet is the story of the Monkey King's brain Heavenly Palace, which is also deeply loved by children in Chang'an City.

The surrounding guests were watching the excitement, and suddenly a small hand appeared on the curtain, holding a doll of the Monkey King.

"But Sun Wukong will not die." A childish voice suddenly came from behind the curtain.

"Why are you again!" The stall owner was angry and grabbed Jiang Liu'er.

"Click, over!"

This scene is all behind the curtain, there is nothing to say, it is over in one go.

Then I took a shot of the group performances applauding.

The performance of the group performance is also very good, obviously the group performance in Hengdian is still very professional, and he is very experienced in this kind of applause and applause.

"Alright, let's move on to the third shot of the eighth game!"

"Actors in place, action!"

"Fa Ming... Fa Ming, take care of your apprentice! The shadow puppet stall owner lifted Jiang Liu'er with both hands and called Jiang Liu'er's master loudly, obviously familiar with the two of them.

The camera zooms in and gives Jiang Liuer a close-up, and he draws a face on his face, just like the Monkey King in the cartoon "Havoc in Heaven", with red paint around his eyes.

Jiang Liu'er struggled to break free of the stall owner's hand, and ran away without a trace.

The onlookers immediately applauded.

"Click, do it again! Pay attention to the fact that when you shout Fa Ming, you have to look left and right, you are looking for someone! ”

"Click!" This time it was Shi Xiaosong who broke free from the stall owner's hands when the two of them acted differently, and the group performance who played the stall owner let go in advance, and Shi Xiaosong landed without preparing to fall.

This can make Li Mu jump, this scene has not been filmed, if Shi Xiaosong is injured, it will be over.

"Xiao Song, how are you, go and call the doctor!" Li Mu hurriedly ran over to see the situation.

"Uncle, I'm fine, I just didn't stand firm." Before Li Mu passed, Shi Xiaosong stood up by himself.

"How's it going, does your foot hurt?" Li Mu asked with concern.

"It doesn't hurt." Shi Xiaosong shook his foot and said that he was fine.
