Chapter 78: Chen Jie wants to shoot a big scene
"Brother Sanmao, Ajie, let me introduce you to this is my brother Ren Darong." Ren Dahua said.
Hong Jinbao and Chen Jie shook hands with Ren Darong and said hello, Ren Darong said
"Can you tell me why Chen Yaoxing gathered more than 500 people to surround you and did nothing?" Ren Darong said.
"Big brother, you're enough, Applejack and Brother Sanmao are my friends, they are victims in this matter, you don't treat them like suspects. Besides, this case is not in your charge, you are no longer in the anti-black group. Ren Dahua said to his brother a little angrily.
Ren Darong smiled embarrassedly and said, "I'm sorry, I'm an occupational disease, please forgive me for the offense." ”
"It's okay, we can understand that. But I heard Brother Rong just now and knew the identity of the big brother behind Chen Yaoxing. Can you tell me? Chen Jie said.
"There's no problem with that, but if you ask someone, you'll easily be able to guess. Chan Yiu-sing is a recent emerging force in Wan Chai. He himself is one of the double flower red sticks of New Ngee An. Ren Darong said.
"New Ngee An!" Chen Jie frowned and said, "So, it's the Xiang brothers who want to see me." What do they want to see me for? ”
After hearing Chen Jie's words, Ren Dahua and Hong Jinbao both frowned.
"Big brother, if it's really the Xiang brothers who want to trouble Ajie, you can't ignore it! Applejack is my good brother. Ren Dahua said to his brother.
"Don't worry, even if it's an ordinary citizen, I'll do my best to help. This is the duty of being a police officer. Ren Darong said.
After speaking, he took out two business cards and handed them to Chen Jie and Hong Jinbao.
"If there's anything you can call me directly. I'm still at work and I'm going to work first. Ren Darong left after speaking.
Hong Jinbao and Chen Jie took Ren Dahua to the Kowloon Hotel together.
The people of the Hong family class had already arrived, waiting for them there.
Chen Jie and the three of them had a tacit understanding, and they did not tell the people of the Hong family class about the Xiang brothers. After all, everyone should celebrate the rest of their lives at this time.
Everyone drank from noon to evening, and in the end, Hong Jinbao sent everyone back to rest for fear of delaying the next day's work.
After Chen Jie returned home, he didn't tell Zhao Yuzhi about today's incident, he didn't want Zhao Yuzhi to worry.
Early the next morning, not long after the crew of "Ip Man" started filming, they were blocked by a group of people again. But this time it's not Tricky Boy.
"What's the situation? Could it be that the gang has come to take revenge! The people of the Hong family class whispered.
"Don't guess, let's take a rest first, I'll take a look." Hong Jinbao said.
"Brother Sanmao, I'll go with you." Chen Jie said.
Hong Jinbao nodded, and the two walked over together.
Seeing Chen Jie and Hong Jinbao coming over together, the gang rushed forward to surround the two.
"Is it true that Mr. Hong heard that your crew was harassed by members of the underworld yesterday?"
"Applejack heard that you put nearly 100 people on your own yesterday, is that true?"
"I heard that there was a fight between the members of the Hong family class and the underworld elements during the filming of "Ip Man" yesterday, is there such a thing?"
Seeing this battle, Hong Jinbao and Chen Jie breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the reporter was not here to make trouble.
"Listen to me, everyone." Chen Jie shouted.
The reporters finally quieted down when they heard Chen Jie's shouting.
"Yesterday, there were indeed criminals who came to the crew to make trouble, but only me and Sanmao did it. Then the police came. Not as exaggerated as you say. Chen Jie said.
"Applejack, can you describe yesterday in detail?" The journalists asked.
"I think you should ask the police about this matter, our Hong Kong police are still very efficient. We still have to film, I hope all reporters and friends don't disturb us filming. Otherwise, you may receive a letter from my lawyer. Chen Jie said.
Chen Jie and Hong Jinbao said a few perfunctory words to themselves, except for knowing that someone did come to make trouble yesterday, they didn't say anything useful for the rest.
After the two sent off reporters, the movie "Ip Man" finally resumed normal filming.
The reporters could not get useful information from Chen Jie and Hong Jinbao, so they had no choice but to run to the Kowloon Police Station. When the Kowloon Police Station made yesterday's incident public, the Hong Kong media once again went crazy because of Chen Jie.
If Chen Jie told everyone that he was good at kung fu when "Ip Man" started filming, many people would think that Chen Jie would have some fists and embroidered legs, and there was no real kung fu. But after hearing from the police that Chen Jie had put down seventy or eighty people by himself yesterday, and that these people are basically still in the hospital. The reporters really believed that Chen Jie was a kung fu master. Thinking of the movie "Ip Man" that Chen Jie is making, I can't help but look forward to it. And thinking of "Ip Man" makes people think of Li Xiaolong even more, Chen Jie and him are both actors, and they are also proficient in kung fu. This time the reporters were excited.
The next day, major newspapers praised Chen Jie's skills with headlines such as "Reproducing Kung Fu Superstar", "Li Xiaolong's Real Successor", and "The Kung Fu Myth of One Enemy to a Hundred". made Chen Jie popular again.
At this time, Chen Jie didn't pay attention to these, he was comforting Zhao Yuzhi, who was crying in his arms. When Zhao Yuzhi saw a report in the newspaper that hundreds of people surrounded the crew of "Ip Man", not to mention how chaotic her heart was. Although he knew that Chen Jie was fine, he was still worried. After waiting at home for a day, Chen Jie finally came back. Excited, he jumped into Chen Jie's arms and began to cry.
Chen Jie wasted a lot of energy to appease Zhao Yuzhi.
"Applejack, don't hide this from me in the future, okay?" Zhao Yuzhi leaned her head on Chen Jie's arms and hugged Chen Jie tightly and said.
"Sister Zhi, it's really nothing. Don't you see I'm doing well now! I didn't tell you because I was afraid that you would be worried. Chen Jie said.
"Promise me." Zhao Yuzhi looked at Chen Jie solemnly and said.
"Okay, I promise you, I won't hide anything from Sister Zhi in the future." Chen Jie said.
Zhao Yuzhi saw that Chen Jie agreed to her request, so she gave up.
In a blink of an eye, on December 20, 1981, Chen Jie's movie "Ip Man" won the last scene under the attention of many media. Ip Man, played by Chen Jie, and Miura played by Cangtian Baozhao fight in the ring. This scene has a difficulty for Hong Kong movies now, when Ip Man was shot and fell into the ring, thousands of Chinese launched an assault on the Japanese army. If you want to shoot this kind of effect, at least you have to use nearly 1,000 extras. And the two of them simply can't get together so many people.
"Applejack or I can just watch it, let's just mean it." Hong Jinbao said helplessly.
In the past two days, he has caged the people of Hongjiaban and Baohe Company before he made up more than 60 people. It's just too far from the ideal number.
"The key to this last scene is to give the audience a shocking feeling, if we can't hit the shocking effect, the evaluation of our film will drop a lot."
"But the problem now is that we can't get that many people. Even if we spend money, we can't get thousands of extras. Hong Jinbao said.
After thinking for a while, Chen Jie said to Hong Jinbao, "Brother Sanmao, how about we go to Golden Harvest and Xinyi City to borrow people?" ”
"That's not enough to get together thousands of people, if we want to shoot such a scene, unless we bring in the Shaw Brothers, otherwise even if we ask Golden Harvest and New Arts City to help, we can get together three or four hundred people." Hong Jinbao said.
Chen Jie also pondered after listening to Hong Jinbao's words.
"It's really not good, let's wash and shoot the fight today, I'm thinking of a way to get the final scene." Chen Jie said.
Hong Jinbao nodded when he heard Chen Jie say this. Beckoning everyone to get ready to turn on.
The fight between Chen Jie and Cangtian Baozhao was filmed very smoothly, and Hong Jinbao now enjoys knowing Chen Jie's action scenes more and more, basically all the actions are done over and over again.
"Cards." Hong Jinbao shouted to announce that the filming of this scene was completed.
"Everyone has worked hard, we are still missing the last set of shots in this film, but we have encountered difficulties. Let's take a break and let you know when I solve the problem. Chen Jie said.
