When Lin Youlun and Wang Guxian came out of the bathroom, Wu Yusen and Xu Ke had already finished reading the script.

"What do you two think?" Lin Youlun changed the cup in his hand and asked while drinking tea.

"If you want to fully realize the ideas in Mr. Lin's script, 80 million Hong Kong dollars may not be enough." Xu Ke stood from the perspective of a bystander, and he had no scruples when he spoke.

"It's not just about money, but also about the filming skills that limit the development of the plot to a certain extent, even in Hollywood, which is technologically advanced, it may not be able to fully meet Mr. Lin's vision in the script." Wu Yusen has unconsciously substituted himself into the role of director, and the questions he asks are more practical.

Lin Youlun nodded, "I know all the problems you said, but it is impossible to increase the investment in this film." The problem of stunts can be solved by combining makeup and traditional shooting techniques, and I hope that Mr. Wu can innovate in the shooting techniques and style concepts of this film. ”

Xu Ke was thoughtful, but Wu Yusen looked puzzled.

Lin Youlun knew that Wu Yusen's violent aesthetic film style was still in its infancy at this time, and he had to find a way to give him a little inspiration, he hugged his hand and pinched his chin and thought for a while, and then asked: "Mr. Wu seems to have made a shootout movie for Golden Harvest?" ”

"Mr. Lin has seen this movie?" Wu Yusen was happy at first, and then his smile turned bitter. At the beginning, he helped Golden Harvest make this movie, but no one at the top of Golden Harvest was optimistic, and the movie was hidden after filming, and he didn't even have a chance to release it.

"I think it's a very creative idea to show a shootout in slow motion." Lin Youlun actually didn't watch that movie, he only knew that after Wu Yusen's filming of "The True Color of Heroes" in later generations, Golden Harvest took out a gunfight film made by Wu Yusen a long time ago and re-released it. At this time, "The True Color of Heroes" was just an idea in the hearts of Wu and Xu, and Lin Youlun couldn't use it to quote it, so he had to move out of Wu Yusen's old work that was hidden by Jiahe Snow to talk about it.

Based on the current relationship between Lin Youlun and Golden Harvest, it is not difficult to dig out Wu Yusen's old works from the Golden Harvest film library, and Wu Yusen does not doubt this, so Lin Youlun really watched that movie.

Wu Yusen's use of slow motion actually only showed a rudimentary form in that movie, and Wu's violent aesthetics really took shape, when it was 1989's "Bloody Heroes". In this film, Wu Yusen uses a very confident approach to make the violent world permeated with unspeakable romance, and the gorgeous and freely controlled shots, refined character dialogue, and dance-like gunfight action are all captivating. In particular, the life-and-death battle in the church at the end of the film can be called the essence of violent aesthetics: the statue of the Virgin Mary reflected in the candlelight, the white dove omitted in the background, the males attract, and the two guns pointing at each other, these are the most common "signs" in Wu Yusen's films.

Since then, Wu Yusen has filmed a number of movies, and his style has become more and more mature, the scene of Zhou Yanfa dancing with Zhong Chuhong in a wheelchair in "Across the Seas" is full of energy, which makes people scream, and "Hot Hand Detective", which is a stepping stone for Wu Yusen to enter Hollywood, opened with a teahouse firefight, and more than 30 people were killed in ten minutes. Wu Yusen used a long shot to show the three- or two-minute gunfight, explosion and bloody process, and Zhou Runfa's performance of holding a gun in slow motion is a classic.

Hollywood looked down on the slow motion of this kind of movie at first, thinking that it looked silly, but after Wu Yusen brought these things to the United States, Americans discovered the benefits of this special effect, and later many big-budget movies used similar techniques, which have to be said to be inspired by Wu Yusen.

When it comes to slow motion, Lin Youlun is most impressed not by Wu Yusen's gunfight movie, but by the "bullet time" in the science fiction movie "The Matrix", and the heroine in "Legend of the Night" has a lot of action of shooting in the air. …,

In fact, "bullet time" is not unique to "The Matrix", and its invention even predates the appearance of the movie, but the original purpose was to solve a debate about whether all four legs of an animal can leave the ground at the same time. The designer took pictures of galloping horses on the track, each camera was controlled by a taut rope across the track, and the camera shutter was triggered when the horse ran past, and he later put these pictures on a glass disc that rotated in front of a light source to make an animal diorama, which partly provided the inspiration for the invention of the film.

"Bullet time" has been a common concept in anime since the advent of the idea that this technique can be applied to real-life shooting, and in the Japanese anime series Mach GoGoGo from the late '60s, the protagonist jumps off a race car and the image is transformed from front to side in an arc of perspective.

After the release of "The Matrix", "bullet time" suddenly became the signature of the movie, and everyone immediately thought of "bullet time" when they mentioned "The Matrix", and this stunt also became one of the most imitated screen stunts later.

The Matrix shot "bullet time" with 120 cameras placed on a precise route set by a computer tracking system, then had the shutters of these cameras start taking pictures in a pre-programmed order and time interval, and then scanned all the photos taken from all angles into the computer, so that the coherent and smooth movement of the subject in a 360-degree lens can be obtained.

Lin Youlun communicated this idea with the special effects team from Hollywood, and the other party thought that the 360-degree lens surround effect was difficult to achieve with the current level of technology, but the small angle arc visual effect could be tried, they could design a special program to control the camera to take pictures, and the synthesis technique could also be overcome, the only problem was that the camera placement trajectory could not be set by program, and it could only be artificially explored. In their opinion, this is something that even a computer can't do, and it certainly can't be done by relying on people.

Lin Youlun didn't seem to give up, he pinned his hopes on Wu Yusen. With Wu Yusen's research on slow motion, a solution may be found.

After listening to Lin Youlun's explanation of "bullet time", Wu Yusen and Xu Ke were both dazzled, but as soon as they heard that Lin Youlun handed over the most difficult part to himself, Wu Yusen suddenly felt extremely heavy pressure on his shoulders.

"In the future, I will invest in the establishment of a company specializing in the production of film stunts, this time it is a groping experiment, it is best to succeed, and I will continue to research after it fails."

Wu Yusen was infected by Lin Youlun's confidence, no longer hesitated, and promised to do his best to do this.
