It's been half a month since "The Love of People and Ghosts" was launched, and everything is relatively smooth except for being often disturbed by the media. It's just that in the middle of the game, the progress was more than doubled due to the need to shoot special effects shots.

According to the methods of the special effects artists, the same shot can be taken about two or three times to convey that meaning, but the special effects that come out of this are very rubbish. If you want to achieve a realistic and smooth effect of a two-second action through the wall, you must compare and shoot at least seven or eight times, and sometimes even more than ten, dozens, hundreds or thousands of times. Then use the film of these lenses to edit and stitch through the method of optical printing to achieve the effect of fake and real.

As a result, whether it is an ordinary staff member, a director, or an actor, the workload has been greatly increased. Fortunately, there are not too many such shots, otherwise at the current rate, it will not be completed until at least the middle of next year. Even so, after filming this drama, it will be at least November.

Fortunately, after these special effects shots are shot, they can be used immediately for basic post-production, which greatly shortens the post-production time in the future. Otherwise, if "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" wants to be released, I am afraid it will have to wait until February next year.

In the era when computer technology was not developed, playing special effects was really not something that ordinary people could do. "Ghost Love" still has only a few special effects shots, like the "Star Wars" that I am afraid of next year, but it took two years to shoot. Even with computers, special effects movies are also things that burn money and time, and "Avatar" has taken nearly ten years from planning to completion.

Today's filming is the rivalry between a black psychic and the heroine, and Aida, an actor who is a halfway monk, performed very well, but it was Audrey who had several consecutive N-machines.

Wang Zijun felt that something was wrong, so he asked everyone in the crew to rest for a while, and walked to Audrey by himself. Hepburn sat down next to her, saw that she looked a little tired, and asked, "What's wrong?" Isn't it too tiring. ”

"No, Wang, thank you for your concern." Audrey took a sip of boiling water, "After I finished filming yesterday, I was interviewed by Vogue and took a set of photos, so I was a little sleep-deprived." ”

"Are you crazy?" Wang Zijun said angrily. It doesn't take a few hours to take a photo shoot for a fashion magazine, and Audrey had a night scene last night, and she didn't finish work until 10 o'clock. Seeing her like that, it is estimated that she has never slept all night, no wonder she is always out of shape during filming today.

"I'm sorry, Wang, Vogue's Amira is my friend, they changed the theme on the spot, and it's too late." "I promise it won't happen again next time." ”

Wang Zijun was so angry that he wanted to scold, although he was usually amiable, but during working hours, he hated this kind of messy thing to disrupt the shooting plan. However, seeing the faint dark circles and apologetic eyes in Audrey's eyes, he still held his breath and said, "You go back to make up for sleep, I'll shoot other shots first." ”

"Well," Audrey nodded, "I'll sleep on the set, it will only take two hours, and you will wake me up in two hours." ”

"Nonsense, follow me" Wang Zijun pulled Audrey and walked out, seeing that she was still going to refute, he simply picked her up and walked downstairs.

Audrey. Hepburn exclaimed, and before she could speak, she was hugged by Wang Zijun, and she was frightened and involuntarily hung her arms around Wang Zijun's neck.

"It's really unreasonable." Audrey whispered, but she didn't struggle anymore, and just let him carry her downstairs.

"Click, click" When Wang Zijun went downstairs with Audrey Hepburn in his arms, more than a dozen cameras pressed the shutter together. They were all reporters from various newspapers and magazines, and they could not go upstairs to cover the news because of Wang Zijun's clearance, so they could only wait here to catch the news.

Big news, big news

At the moment of taking the photo, the reporters had already thought of the headline of the story.

A little more reliable, ready to report on Audrey. Hepburn was injured in an accident while filming a movie and was unable to walk normally; ** One point, it is reported that the Chinese and Audrey are open **, hugging and going downstairs for a date.

After taking pictures, these reporters immediately gathered around and began to ask all kinds of strange questions.

"Get out" Wang Zijun said angrily, after he threw Audrey into the car, he had to go back to filming immediately, how could he have time to talk nonsense with these guys.

Audrey. Hepburn was held in Wang Zijun's arms, his face was close to his strong chest, and there was a powerful heartbeat in his ears, smelling his breath, which made her think of the intimate scene that night. Audrey looked up just in time to see him angry at the reporter, and thought his childishness was quite funny. ,

Li Jinghao, who came over, helped Wang Zijun open the car door, and Wang Zijun ordered: "Jinghao, you send her back to rest, and all those guys who come to interview me will block them." ”

Li Jinghao nodded and sat in the cab.

Wang Zijun put Audrey in the car, Audrey. Hepburn said, "I'm sorry, King"

"It's nothing, next time I have something to say, I'll arrange it in advance. You're going to make me passive. Wang Zijun sighed.

"I see." Audrey. Hepburn lowered her head, and somehow, the words spoken by this man half her age always made her unconsciously obey.

"By the way, do you have time for the night?". Wang Zijun asked.

Dai Li nodded, thinking that he was not trying to date me.

Wang Zijun said: "The evening is the movie premiere of a friend of mine, and I want to invite you to attend it. ”

This is the ghost idea that Frank guy came up with, saying that Audrey's presence will increase the attention of "Game of Death" and the popularity of Dragon Tiger Films.

"Absolutely." Audrey said, but there was a little imperceptible disappointment in her heart.

……………………

After Audrey left, Wang Zijun asked all the other actors to go home to rest, changing the scene does not mean changing it, and the preparation of various scenes, props and actors is very troublesome.

Wang Zijun left a few special effects artists, photographers and other staff members, and then took a car to the subway station collectively.

The most troublesome special effects of the whole play are here, requiring Wang Zijun to enter and exit from the rushing subway. All he can do now is jump around the empty railroad tracks, and then jump inside the subway and onto the walls.

And after that, there is no need for him to come in person, he can let an assistant director take the camera crew, and the special effects artist can use the made Wang Zijun's stand-in model to put on clothes and crash into the stationary subway, and then shoot the picture of the subway running, and finally use three non-stop pictures to be put together through special methods.

It was a huge amount of work, less than ten seconds of footage, and it took at least two or three months to complete the final shot, but fortunately he didn't have to do it himself, and he could do it in parallel with other shoots.

Throughout the day, Wang Zijun did hundreds or thousands of repetitive jumping movements on the side of the railway and on the subway, and countless films were spent, but the less than ten seconds of footage in the play was not even a tenth of the work. This simple and boring work content made him almost hurt internally, and at the same time he was tired and exhausted.

Back home, Wang Zijun took a comfortable shower and casually put on a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. It's already mid-August, and the weather is so hot that Wang Zijun doesn't bother to wear formal clothes.

After changing his clothes and taking a nap for a while, Li Jinghao has already taken Audrey. Hepburn came over.

After Wang Zijun got into the car, he found Audrey. Hepburn is actually a pair of skinny blue jeans with a striped cotton shirt, which looks smart and feminine.

Audrey smiled: "I tried on the clothes for a long time, but I found that they didn't match the current hairstyle, so I simply wore the one in the movie." ”

"That's right," Wang Zijun pointed to his own body and joked, "Let's be a couple today." ”

………………………………

The premiere of "Game of Death" was held at the Eln Theater, and Bruce Lee was originally going to be placed in a Chinese theater, but there were already people there today.

Today's premiere is full of a full set, and a red carpet show is arranged, although there are not many Hollywood stars that Bruce Lee can invite, but it is finally a small sparrow with all kinds of organs.

Bruce Lee has a lot of kung fu fans in the United States, so there are not a few fans who come today, but the reporter is a little shabby, because several big media have paid attention to Chinese theaters, and there is also a Hollywood director's play premiering there. Although its influence is not as good as Bruce Lee's, the celebrity guests and big names in the film industry are enough to attract the attention of the media.

Of course, it is impossible for media outlets like the Los Angeles Daily and the Hollywood Reporter not to send reporters. It's just that they have already pre-programmed the layout in advance, and "Game of Death" will be placed in a secondary place, so the level of reporters sent over is not so high.

Zou Wenhuai is also at the Eln Cinema now, and he is obviously very satisfied with the scene of media gathering and fans frenzy at this time. The re-collaboration with Bruce Lee will not only bring him a lot of box office, but also make Golden Harvest's name appear in Hollywood newspapers again, which is very beneficial to the introduction of Golden Harvest's other films to the United States.

In fact, after Bruce Lee's film opened the U.S. market two days ago, many companies in Hong Kong and Taiwan tried to hold their own films for distribution in the U.S. It's just that there are only two or three successful ones such as Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, and the box office situation is not very ideal, and the main audience is still the Chinese community in the United States. ,

Half a month later, "Game of Death" will be released in Hong Kong. Today, Zou Wenhuai also brought the editors and reporters of his "Golden Harvest Movie" magazine, just to record and report on the grand premiere of "Game of Death" in the United States, and prepare to bring it back to Hong Kong to promote it.

When fans in the distance saw Bruce Lee appear, they immediately burst into exclamations, including Chinese, whites, and blacks, mostly young people, but there are also a small number of middle-aged people.

Zou Wenhuai heard those cheers, and became more confident in Bruce Lee's influence in the United States, and said with a smile: "Bruce, today's response is good, our movie will definitely be a big hit." ”

Bruce Lee smiled and nodded, he was not a humble person, and at the same time he was full of confidence in his elaborate films.

Soon, Irushandu, Ji Hanzai, Jabbar and others from the main creative team also came to the scene, and the cheers of fans became even stronger. Obviously, nine times out of ten of these fans are kung fu fans and violent maniacs. Those reporters also came to interview, and for a while, the spotlight flickered non-stop.

As for Sammo Hung and others in the Yuan family class, not many people care about it, which seems a bit tragic.

After answering questions from two reporters, Bruce Lee looked at his watch and said, "Why can't Ah Jun come over, the red carpet show is about to start." ”

Zou Wenhuai came over and asked, "Are you waiting for Wang Zijun?" ”。

Bruce Lee said: "Yes, he said he would arrive on time." ”

As the general manager of Dragon Tiger Film Company, one of the partners, Frank is also one of the owners, and he smiled: "Boss, Mr. Wang will definitely come, and there will be surprises." ”

"What surprise?" Bruce Lee asked.

Frank said, "He'll take Audrey. Hepburn also brought. ”

Bruce Lee frowned when he heard this, although he also liked to watch Audrey when he was younger. Hepburn's movie, but he didn't think Audrey should have been invited to the premiere of "Game of Death". Because as soon as she comes, the eyes of media reporters will be focused on her, and the coverage of the film itself will be reduced.

Zou Wenhuai also has the same mind, Frank's purpose is naturally to expand the fame of Dragon Tiger Film Company, and to promote "Human Ghost Love" in disguise, but this has nothing to do with him Zou Wenhuai, he only cares about how much box office "Game of Death" has.

"Audrey. Hepburn" came from the crowd with an exclamation.

"Oh, she's older than my mother, but she looks so young."

"Hell, it's that Chinese again, I see that he is so annoying, always entangled in Hepburn's side."

"Hey man, Hepburn is outdated, we're here to see Bruce today. Lee's. ”

"Let the girls eat, we need to work hard. Ahh

"Buckley, I love your rock"

"Wang Zijun Wang Zijun ~"

“……”

The reaction of the fans was chaotic, but the media reporters were bright-eyed and turned their cameras to Audrey. Hepburn.

"Hello Ms. Audrey, I'm Cohen, a reporter for the Los Angeles Evening News. I heard that the reason why you came back to make movies is because you have divorced Dottie, is this true? ”。 A reporter rushed over first.

Audrey said, "No, it's just a rumor. ”

The reporter went on to ask: "What do you think about Mr. Dotie's multiple infidelity?" Will this affect your relationship? ”。

Wang Zijun interjected: "Mr. reporter, don't you think this kind of question is very rude? You should say, Ms. Hepburn, you're so beautiful tonight. ”

"Yes, Ms. Hepburn, you're so beautiful tonight." The reporter immediately added, "Last week Mr. Dottie was photographed in Rome having sex with two female models, and we all felt sorry for you, do you have anything to say?" ”。

Audrey. Hepburn's face was all black, and he was so angry that he didn't know how to speak.

Wang Zijun really doesn't know how this person became a reporter, and he actually exposed his shortcomings on such an occasion, he was really desperate for sales.

Audrey. Hepburn calmed down and said, "This is a private matter between me and my husband, and I don't want to answer you anything." ”

Wang Zijun didn't wait for the reporter to speak again, so he took Audrey's hand and walked towards Bruce Lee and the others.

"To introduce, this is Bruce Zijun.

"Hello, Bruce." Although Audrey has not seen Bruce Lee's movies, she has heard of his name.

"Hello, Ms. Audrey." Bruce Lee said.

"This is Mr. Zou Wenhuai from Hong Kong." Wang Zijun said.

"Hello, Mr. Zou." Audrey reached out.

"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you." Zou Wenhuai held Audrey. Hepburn's hand was obviously a little excited. Even the summer dream that was popular in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia back then, the dream lover of the old man Jin Yong, and the prototype of Wang Yuyan's little dragon girl, is only known as the Audrey of the East. Hepburn, now that he sees the deity, where is Zou Wenhuai calm. ,

Zou Wenhuai meets Wang Zijun and Audrey. Hepburn held hands and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This Wang Zijun's method of making women is too powerful, how long has he been in the United States, and he actually got Audrey into it.

As for Sammo Hung and others, they are both envious and worshipful -- too long, and I have Chinese ambition.

Regardless of Zou Wenhuai's evil thoughts, Wang Zijun met with Yilu Shandu and several other martial arts masters, and they knew each other. If you want to make action movies in the future, it will be much easier to find actors.

"Dan, Mr. Wang Zijun is a good kung fu player, you can learn when you have time." Bruce Lee said to Irushan.

Yilu Shandu is obviously also a martial arts idiot, and after hearing this, he looked at Wang Zijun curiously, and asked Wang Zijun to play two games on the weekend.

Wang Zijun was not free, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I'm not a good hand, I can't hold on for a minute under Brother Long's hands, and I will lie down, which is not comparable to you." ”

A few people exchanged a few pleasantries, and another reporter came up, but this time they didn't ask some embarrassing questions. Audrey. Hepburn probably saw Wang Zijun's face and told reporters that he likes to watch Bruce Lee's movies very much and is a fan of Bruce Lee.

If this sentence appears in the newspapers, it will surely attract many Hepburn fans to go to the cinema to watch "Game of Death". After the reporter left, Bruce Lee hurriedly thanked him.

Soon the time for the red carpet came, Bruce Lee took his wife Linda's hand and walked on the carpet, and stopped halfway to gesture with his hands. Linda was a student of Bruce Lee's martial arts hall, so naturally she would take a few hits, and the husband and wife teamed up to symbolically fight a few tricks, which immediately attracted crazy screams from fans.

With Bruce Lee taking the lead, this red carpet show has simply become a kung fu show, whether it is Ilu Shandu, Jabbar or Sammo Hung 's Yuanjia class, they all make a few strokes, and finally retain the posture they think is more handsome for reporters to take pictures.

"I can't compare to them, it's better to walk honestly." waited until Wang Zijun walked on the carpet and said self-deprecatingly, causing a burst of good-natured laughter from the fans next to him.

Not long after entering the screening room, a middle-aged man walked over, smiled at Audrey and nodded, before saying to Wang Zijun: "Hello, Wang, we meet again." ”

"Hello, may I ask who you are?" Wang Zijun couldn't remember who the other party was.

"Steve, the film critic at Entertainment Weekly, I remember I was at Cannes and gave your film a 3.

"Oh yes, thank you so much." Wang Zijun happily shook hands with him. Out of 4, this Steve gives himself a 3.8 and obviously likes his movies very much.

"Your movie is great, and I'm sure you'll be successful this time," Steve said. Perhaps, when we have time, we can talk about your new film. ”

"Of course, but there don't seem to be many fans in the United States who like me." Wang Zijun said.

"That's right," said Steve, "after your "Bloody Lonely City" was released in the United States, although it achieved better results in Chinese-language films, it was because your explosion scene attracted a lot of people. It's a pity that that's all, young people in the United States don't care about the Second Sino-Japanese War, and it's easy to forget you as a director. But thank you for your contribution to the film industry, I mean the explosions. This year's Hollywood's "Burning Skyscrapers" borrowed some of your techniques in "Bloody Lonely City". ”

"Really? That's my pleasure. Wang Zijun said with a smile, "Burning Skyscrapers" was nominated for Best Picture at next year's Oscars.

Wang Zijun and Audrey. Hepburn sat down in the celebrity guest seat, and a white host on the stage was talking about a talk show, making the guests laugh from time to time.

"Have you rested?". Wang Zijun asked Audrey. Hepburn.

Audrey smiled: "After a day of sleep, I am almost a lazy pig." ”

"Women need to sleep more and keep a good mood, otherwise they will age quickly." Wang Zijun said.

"yes." Audrey touched the corner of her eye, "I didn't have wrinkles last year, but they have grown this year." ”

"Mr. Dottie's behavior has upset you." Wang Zijun said: "It's not worth being angry about the mistakes made by others. ”

Audrey sighed, she was just in a depressed mood when she was forced to be questioned by a reporter outside, and obviously couldn't help but want to find someone to talk to: "You don't know, Wang, how much I used to love him. At that time, I had just been divorced, and it was as if the sky had fallen. I went to Rome alone to relax, wanting to make myself feel better. That's when I met Dottie, who wasn't very handsome, didn't have a lot of money, and was even younger than me. But he was very comforting, and it only took me a week to forget about my troubles, and then he proposed to me. I didn't think about it and agreed, I thought I had met a real person, so I put down all the performances and interviews and became his wife with peace of mind. Who knew that in less than a year, he would ......"

"I thought I could change him if I tried to do my best. But I was wrong, I was pregnant with a child at the time, and I was about to give birth, and he was photographed fooling around with women...... "Audrey. Hepburn said and buried his head, covered his face and sobbed quietly.

"Okay, don't be sad, this is the premiere, don't be found out by reporters." Wang Zijun patted her leg lightly and said.

Audrey carefully wiped her tears and said in a low voice: "Wang, thank you, I have been holding these words in my heart for a long time, and I have never said them to others. ”

"It's going to be fine." Wang Zijun held her little hand and said, "Let's watch a movie, it's about to start." ”

Dai Li. Hepburn's hand was held by Wang Zijun, and she felt very warm, and she turned her head to look at his side face. I thought to myself, how nice it would have been to meet him ten years ago, but unfortunately, I am no longer young.
