When Chen Yongren returned to Taiwan, Wu Yulin had already arrived, and the latter was frustrated, but the master of heaven and earth was the biggest, and the heroes had a paper to recruit apprentices, and unscrupulous people came to meet him.

Wu Yulin was surprised when he heard his master Zhang Che say that he had only heard his name and not seen the idea of his junior brother Chen Yongren; Chen Yongren made his debut film and achieved the highest achievement of a Chinese filmmaker at the Cannes Film Festival, and his fame has long been resounding in the Chinese film industry. Wu Yulin only heard that the latter had been under Zhang Che for a while, but he was not familiar with him, so he felt very puzzled.

Chen ...... Director ......" Wu Yulin paused, he didn't know what to call Chen Yongren, call Mr. Chen...... The two of them are out of the same school, and they are a little out of sight; Call it by its first name...... Seems unfamiliar; thought that since the two got together because of the movie, they would be judged by their professional titles.

Chen Yongren laughed and said, "Senior brother, you are outside, call me Ah Ren!" ”。

Wu Yulin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Ah Ren, I don't know why you chose to ask me to direct a movie together?" With you and Master joining forces, I feel as if I am ...... Somewhat redundant! At the end of the day, the voice was low.

"Senior brother has been in the film industry for ten years, and now the famous New Art City in the Hong Kong film industry also started from your work "Funny Times".

"Funny Times" ......"; Wu Yulin smiled bitterly and sighed: ""Funny Times" seems to be like a declaration, belonging to me Wu Yulin's "Funny Era" coming, after "Funny Times", "Eight Colors Lin Yazhen" failed at the box office, "Heroes Without Tears" 'die before leaving the school', heroes can have no tears, but unfortunately I, Wu Yulin, am not a hero!" ”。

Chen Yongren was silent for a moment and said: "Never doubt yourself because of other people's words, and don't look down on yourself because of a momentary setback." All your strengths and weaknesses are for someone who can accept you as you are. You know, everyone wants to be a better version of themselves, but that doesn't mean that you don't deserve to be accepted ......."

Seeing that Wu Yulin had been attracted by his words, Chen Yongren stared at the former and said seriously: "Senior brother, you are willing to go on like this, being abandoned, forgotten, and ridiculed ......."

Wu Yulin was moved in his heart, he had been unlucky for two years, and there were still people who valued him so much, but after all, he was experienced for a long time, and his heart was churning, but the expression on his face was more subtle, and he said: "It's rare that Ah Ren can afford me, in fact, recently, I have had an idea in my heart, but it's a pity that ......."

Wu Yulin sighed: "When those people heard that it was a gunfight theme, they avoided it, I really regret making those comedy movies before!" ”。

Chen Yongren's heart moved, "The True Color of Heroes" has begun to be conceived? Thinking about the time, it is precisely because Wu Yulin's director of gunfight films is not favored, so "The True Color of Heroes" was not popular for a period of time, and the latter had no choice but to shoot two small-budget comedies "Laughing Craftsman" and "Two Tigers" for Xinyicheng and Xu Ke before they got support and began to invest in filming.

Thinking of this, he suppressed the emotions in his heart, chuckled and asked, "I don't know what kind of idea Senior Brother has, if it is feasible, I am willing to support Senior Brother ......."

"Really?" Wu Yulin exclaimed.

Chen Yongren said with a smile: "We are from the same school, we are brothers, and it is natural for us to support each other......."

Wu Yulin suppressed the surprise in his heart and said: "I want to remake Mr. Long Gang's 1967 work "The True Color of Heroes", the theme is to express the friendship between brothers ......."

Chen Yongren waited for a long time and didn't see Wu Yulin's next words, and said in a daze: "Eh...... Gone? ”。

Wu Yulin's heart darkened, "Aren't you optimistic?" ”。

"Not ......"; Chen Yongren came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "You misunderstood!" I mean...... Do you want to ask, are you going to continue with the original story? ”。

Wu Yulin's expression was relieved, and he shook his head and said, "Of course not!" However, ......"; Speaking of this, he said unnaturally: "I only have a story outline now, and the specific ideas are still very imperfect, so there is no script!" ”。

Chen Yongren thought about it carefully, it is true, the "True Colors of Heroes" in his memory is a collaborative work between Wu Yulin and Xu Laowei, the latter gave the former a lot of inspiration during the filming process, and had a great impact on the movie, and even the final editing part of the film was completed by Xu Ke.

But now that I have myself, I don't need Xu Laowei; It's good that the latter is willing to cooperate with Wu Yulin, maybe there will be a lot of masterpieces, but looking at Xu Laowei's future works, it is good to say that the rivers and lakes of ancient costume martial arts are not represented, but the modern urban rivers and lakes are not represented, and the few shootout films shot independently are mostly reflecting the troubled plots of the big era, which is really not suitable for romantic police and bandit hero films like "The True Colors of Heroes".

Thinking of this, he said to Wu Yulin: "In this case, senior brother doesn't have to be in a hurry, when the filming of "Die Hard" is completed, I will help you improve it together, "Die Hard" is also a police and bandit shootout film, you can also apply some of your thinking concepts in advance and accumulate some experience for the next work."

……

The next day, the crew rushed to Taiwan and gathered at the Tengfei Building to begin setting the filming location......

Three days later, the movie "Die Hard" officially started filming, with film producer Zhang Che, chief director Chen Yongren, and executive director Wu Yulin.

Zhang Che has been famous for more than 30 years, Wu Yulin has been in the film industry for more than ten years, although Chen Yongren has just entered the film industry, but a Cannes Film Festival award is enough for him to be compared with the two, this is the cooperation of three generations of directors in the Hong Kong film industry.

The first scene is a scene where the protagonist has just arrived in Taiwan and is at the airport, except for this scene, the other parts of the whole film can be completed in the space of a building, and naturally this part of the beginning is used as the first shot of the whole movie.

Li Xiuxian debuted for more than ten years, if nothing else, he will be the double actor of next year's Taiwan Golden Horse Awards and Hong Kong Film Awards, his acting skills don't need to be blown, Huang Yuetai is in charge of the camera, his skills are not covered, and the passengers who talk with the protagonist on the plane are made a cameo by Wang Jing, this scene is extremely simple, Chen Yongren directed this scene is a formality, and the filming was completed smoothly.

After the first scene, Chen Yongren began to let go, and gave the rest of the filming work to executive director Wu Yulin and assistant director Wang Jing; The former is responsible for the main part, and the latter is responsible for the only few side parts. He and Zhang Che presided over the overall situation together.

In my memory, Wang Jing later filmed a Hong Kong version of "Die Hard", and found Li Lianjie and singer Zhang Xueyou to act, and made a funny version of "Die Hard", the action scenes are equally exciting, and it is also the mid-term representative work of Li Lianjie's film works.

After filming the only exterior part of the film at the airport, everyone returned to the Tengfei Building, where Cai Songge was at the front desk of the lobby, curiously fiddling with IBM technicians in front of a computer.

In the original version of "Die Hard", the touch screen technology at the front desk of the building was not yet mature, and Chen Yongren didn't want to drop the grade in this regard, or wanted to make his movie a high-grade one, so he specially contacted IBM and borrowed a new computer that had not yet been launched under the guise of opening up the Asian market.

It was the first time IBM had encountered this kind of thing, and after some investigation, it was learned that Chen Yongren was a director who had won an award at the world-famous Cannes Film Festival, and he was immediately enthusiastic, and sent a technician to coordinate it.

IBMPC/AT, which is the latest model that IBM will launch next month, uses an Intel80286 processor (frequency 6MHz, which is the origin of 286), memory up to 512KB, 20MB hard disk, 16bit ISA interface, and the operating system is upgraded to DOS3.0.

In my memory, this is a very popular product, relying on IBMPC/AT alone, it has earned 4 billion US dollars, but hidden worries have begun to appear, various PC manufacturers, CPUs are looking for Intel to buy, and the operating system is looking for Microsoft.

Even if the future PC console reaches the next generation, the IBMPC/AT architecture is old or even obsolete, but its impact cannot be erased; It is precisely because of its emergence that the openness of the PC hardware architecture has been laid, and later people have the opportunity to purchase their own parts to assemble their own computers; Microsoft and Intel also owe it to IBM.

To Chen Yongren's surprise, the technician sent by IBM is a Chinese, named Duan Yang, who is a native of the United States for three generations of Chinese, Chinese is not too slippery, with a slight northern accent, most others do not understand well, but Chen Yongren can listen well.

Duan Yang is very curious about making movies, claiming that his idol is Bruce Lee, Chen Yongren smiled, and now 90% of Chinese people have an idol named Bruce Lee.

The first scene in the building is also very simple, that is, the driver of Chen Baixing's cameo sends the protagonist back to the hotel, and Li Xiuxian talks to the guard at the front desk Cai Songge in front of the computer, which is really a very simple scene, there are only a few lines in total, but Wu Yulin is very broken......

"Click......" Wu Yulin suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a forced smile: "Mr. Cai, don't keep staring at the camera, we are not interviewing you like a TV reporter, but making a movie, you just think you are really a guard and chatting with visitors, forget about the existence of the camera and us, okay?" ”。

Cai Songge smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, Director Wu, I haven't made a movie before, and I'm not used to ...... for a while."

Wu Yulin sighed: "It's okay...... Let's do it all over again! All ready...... Eksh ......".

"Click......".

"Start over ......".

Chen Yongren sighed in the back, this Wu Yulin is really unlucky, he is about to help him get out of the trough of his life, when he meets a person like Cai Songge, he has to live an actor's addiction, Chen Yongren is not easy to refuse, after all, people have helped a little, this is not a big deal, it is not suitable for people to play passerby A, so I arranged a painless role, I didn't expect it......

"Click......".

"Start over ......".

"How many times has this been?" Chen Yongren asked Wang Jingdao.

Wang Jing sighed: "The eighteenth time ......"; After a pause, he continued: "It's the first time I've seen such a camera-less ...... Dragon set! ”。

Chen Yongren frowned, film is also money, you can be willful if you have money, and willfulness is also for fun, not for waste, but it is not good for people to come down, isn't this a face! Fortunately, it's all a simple scene now, so Zhang Che didn't come, otherwise according to the old man's temperament, he would have gone crazy a long time ago!

Cai Songlin himself blushed, and he also felt weird and awkward, but if he boycotted, wouldn't he be even more faceless? It's so entangled, this time I won't act in movies again!

Seeing that Wu Yulin was tortured to the point that he was out of energy, Chen Yongren took the initiative to stop, first letting everyone out, leaving only himself, Wu Yulin, Wang Jing, Li Xiuxian and Cai Songge.

Chen Yongren coughed dryly twice and said to the curious four: "Let's do this, shoot as a stand-in!" ”。

Wu Yulin and Wang Jing each hold a camera at different angles, and Cai Songge's scene is completed by Chen Yongren, but Chen Yongren only shows his back, and the frontal shot will also be blocked by the table or computer, and then give Cai Songge two close-ups of the frontal shot, and edit and synthesize them in the later stage.

Several people nodded unanimously in agreement, although there will be some minor flaws, but after all, it is just a small episode in the whole film, and it is harmless.

Sure enough, it passed smoothly, and Cai Songge said that he had something to do, and then ran away; Wu Yulin sighed to Chen Yongren: "Actually, I also have this idea, but first, Boss Cai's identity is special, and secondly, you have already formulated the storyboard script, and I am embarrassed to ......."

Chen Yongren touched his nose and didn't say anything, everything has pros and cons, although the sub-shot script can concretize and standardize the filming of film and television, but if the director and screenwriter have a slight difference, it will restrict the shooting, for example, most of the current Hong Kong and Taiwan directors do not use scripts to make movies, only use a story outline, take a step by step, or brainstorm, which has also created a golden age.

Chen Yongren has already formulated the sub-shot, Wu Yulin and Wang Jing are just shooting according to the cat, but the details in the middle still need to be grasped, not that the sub-shot is omnipotent, the same story and different directors can shoot two styles, the key is the training of the actors.

After reading the script, Wu Yulin suggested that the role of the policeman played by Zhong Zeshi should be aggravated, so that his tacit understanding and friendship with the protagonist would be more obvious in the camera; Chen Yongren thought about it for a while and agreed to lengthen the film by a few minutes and give Zhong Zeshi more shots and scenes, this plot is supplemented by Wu Yulin and Zhang Che, both of whom are masters who are good at directing "|

Now that it has just entered the middle of July, and Christmas is still very early, Chen Yongren is ready to make good use of this time, on the one hand, he can carve out the film carefully, and at the same time, he can also use the memories in his mind to open up future ideas for Zhang Che, Wu Yulin and Wang Jing, of course, everything is going on intentionally or unintentionally......
