Saturday, September 17, 1999, was a day to remember.

On this day, Ke Zihua will officially embark on a glorious journey to Hollywood!

Just after breakfast, Bandy drove the old Mercedes-Benz to the door of Robert's house, out of politeness and respect, he did not honk the horn to urge, but turned the front of the car, and sat quietly in the car waiting for Ke Zihua.

The position of the car door was facing the corridor in front of the door, so that Ke Zihua could enter the car immediately after going out, which made him very satisfied with Bandy's carefulness, and as soon as he got in the car, he praised Bandy: "Hey, Soldier, well done." ”

Bandy waved his right hand in response, gave him a military salute, and replied, "Responsibility, sir!" ”

Ke Zihua smiled slightly, this kind of innocuous little joke quickly shortened the distance between the two, and he still liked a relaxed atmosphere.

Looking at the somewhat gloomy sky, Ke Zihua said to himself: "The weather is good today." ”

Bandy was a little confused, "Ke, it's a cloudy day. ”

"I mean, this kind of weather is perfect for our movie. Yes, it's a good fit. ”

Seeing that Bandy shook his head and expressed puzzlement, Ke Zihua continued: "What we are going to shoot today is the exterior scene of destroying the bandits' den, right?" If you think the sun is shining, will it distract the audience, and it doesn't match the atmosphere of the plot. ”

Bandy touched his nose and said as if he didn't understand, "It sounds like this." ”

Soon, they came to the set all the way unimpeded, and Bandy's control of the road once again amazed Ke Zihua, and there was no pause throughout the whole process, and the green light went straight to the set.

Because we were going to shoot a chase scene today, we didn't shoot in the base, but set up the exterior in an old residential area not far from the base.

Seeing several police cars parked outside the community, Ke Zihua asked in surprise: "Bandy, what are these police cars doing here?" ”

"Maintain order, don't you know yet, as soon as Old John and the South Vancouver Police Department made this request, their director expressed his full support."

"Obediently, four police cars, more than ten police officers, it's really a big scene, I heard that they have sent at most two police cars before, and they have to have a big production of first-line stars."

Ke Zihua smiled: "It's safe, isn't it?" ”

The set designer began to set up the scene a few days ago, because he wanted to shoot the footage of the drug suppression and destruction of the drug den, so after paying enough compensation, he opened up the living room of the two residents, and in order to ensure Ke Zihua's safety, even the external fire staircase was reinforced.

The prop master has also prepared the props that need to be used, and many of the police equipment used are still borrowed from the South Vancouver Police Department, and of course, iconic items such as police uniforms are shipped from Hollywood.

Director John came to the set early, and after setting up all the personnel, he was looking down at the script, which was a highlight shortly after the opening of the movie, whether he could firmly attract the audience's attention to watch this scene at the beginning of the movie, so he seemed nervous.

Ke Zihua couldn't help but be a little nervous when he saw him: "John, do you have any suggestions for the shooting of this shot?" ”

John raised his head, thought for a moment, and said vigorously: "Ke, I fully believe in your ability, let's shoot as soon as you think." ”

He was afraid of putting pressure on Ke Zihua, so he said half-jokingly: "Don't be nervous, just shoot according to your ideas, there are more films." ”

Bandy, who was following behind, also quipped: "Haha, John, it's the first time I've found out that there are directors who dislike a lot of film." ”

Ke Zihua didn't laugh, he knew that John was ready to repeat the shooting, which shows that John still didn't have any confidence in whether he could control such a scene.

So, he said, "John, take me to meet the actors, I have to communicate with them first, determine the camera and position." ”

Soon John called the actors who participated in the filming, most of whom were known to Ke Zihua, and saw Samuel pointing to a young man in a police uniform next to him and saying, "Ke, this is Lewis, my new partner, a very nice young man." ”

Ke Zihua recognized that he was the young man who had a relationship on the day of the interview, so he smiled at him: "Hey, I know you, this police uniform is really good." ”

Of course, Lewis also recognized Ke Zihua, although he was a little embarrassed by his appearance that day, he was born a self-acquaintance, "I really didn't expect you to be a director, I knew I should have interviewed you." ”

Ke Zihua smiled, and then said to everyone: "Now everyone has the corresponding script in their hands, presumably you are all familiar with it, so let's discuss the shooting now." ”

According to Ke Zihua's memory, this scene is that the police broke into the door, and then began to arrest drug dealers in a swarm, and after the small leader who managed the den jumped out of the window and escaped, he was captured by the panther played by Samuel, the whole scene is about three minutes, although it is also exciting, but there are no highlights.

What he has to do is to show the maximum Cheng dù, the agility and ferocity of the bandits and the decisiveness and domineering of the protagonist Black Panther.

I saw him say to the photographer first: "Donald, after Samuel and Lewis subdue the drug dealers in the hallway, you have to follow the camera to Samuel, and as he comes to the door of the den, you have to gradually advance." ”

Then he said to several police officers: "At the same time, you are divided into two groups against the wall, and follow Samuel while guarding, and advance towards the door, remembering not to move too much, not to exceed Samuel's speed." ”

"Donald, as Samuel approached the door, he 'no-clipped' Samuel out at a slow and uniform speed, shifting the camera to the other officers and letting them in. After a brief dialogue, cut the camera to Lewis who pries the door and give him a close-up shot. ”

"Remember, each officer's expression should be slightly nervous, but not too exaggerated."

After hearing this, everyone nodded to show that they understood what he meant, Ke Zihua's explanation was very professional, and it was not dragging his feet, if they didn't understand it again, then it was better to change their careers.

Seeing that everyone understood, Ke Zihua continued to explain the next shot, "The next scene is that a drug dealer in the house is about to go out, and after seeing the police officers outside, he loudly reminds other drug dealers, and at the same time, the police officers are armed and follow into the house to arrest them. ”

"As the drug dealer turns his head and reminds his accomplices, Lewis, you should rush into the house first, and then the others will follow. At this time, Donald had to stabilize the camera and follow the shots all the way. ”

Then, Samuel spotted the escaped little boss and began to chase the little boss alone. At this point, the camera is fixed, and after Samuel 'paints', the next set of shots begins. ”

Then, Ke Zihua explained how the little leader was chased by a black panther and how he jumped out of the window to escape in a desperate situation, and how he jumped down the fire staircase after finding the police surrounding below.

Then Samuel found out how the little boss jumped out of the window in a rage, smashed a car, and intercepted the drug dealer to capture him.

After the explanation, everyone discussed some details, and Ke Zihua asked them to start auditioning a few times, and after making sure that the actors were completely familiar with the positioning, and the photographer also understood the whole process, the official shooting began.

Soon it was Ke Zihua's turn to go on the stage, and after changing clothes with the actor who played the small boss, he went to the corridor to prepare for filming, this time he needed to fly out by breaking the window on the fifth floor, and then break the window in the corridor on the fourth floor of the opposite building to achieve a safe landing.

The distance between the two buildings is about six meters, although it is not very far, but it is not easy to control due to the height difference of the floors. If you use a storyboard, it will destroy the coherence of the whole action, and only the real realization of the leap will be more brilliant.

And Ke Zihua must accurately find the position of the opposite window in the air, and break through two glass windows in a row, although they are replaced with prop glass, but it will also have a lot of resistance to him, thus increasing the difficulty of completing the whole set of actions.

Thick inflatable pads have been placed on the ground, and at the same time, five cameras shot from different angles are also ready, just waiting for Ke Zihua to jump.

John is very nervous now, although he prepared the pads according to Ke Zihua's reminder, and thought it was for the parkour shot, he didn't know that Ke Zihua was going to arrange this shot into a coherent action.

When he heard Ke Zihua say that he was going to make such a shocking move, John was not only stunned, but also had a trace of admiration in his heart, "Will he be the next action superstar like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan?" ”

You must know that in Hollywood, these two action superstars have countless fans, and I don't know how many people are moved by their movies, just because they see real kung fu and real action movies from them!

At this time, all the idle actors and staff also gathered downstairs, and they all raised their heads to look at the air, in their eyes, Ke Zihua was just a big boy, but they didn't expect that it was this sunny and handsome big boy, who would work so hard when filming!

The police who maintained order and some onlookers also rushed to the scene after hearing the news, hoping to witness the magical scene with their own eyes, but the residents were isolated by the police at the outermost periphery.

But after waiting for a while, no one jumped out, and the onlookers began to talk.

A big man with a beard on his face said in a rough voice: "Haha, it's exciting to think about, I didn't expect to see such a scene." ”

A young man with a pale face next to him retorted indifferently: "Cut, what's the big deal, it's only the fifth floor, it's not a big scene, it's more in the movie." ”

Dahan was immediately unhappy, he was an action fan, and pushed the young man away, "You know a fart!" Can the effects that rely on editing be compared to this? If you don't like it, don't watch it, go home and smoke your marijuana. ”

Although the young man said that it didn't matter, he actually wanted to see it very much, so he had to beg for mercy: "Parker, you are too domineering, why can't I watch it?" I'm also a Bruce Lee fan! ”

The bearded man said that he couldn't do anything, they were all neighbors and couldn't really do anything to him, so he ignored him after glaring, turned his head and looked into the air intently.

Suddenly, the crowd erupted in cheers: "Look, that's Samuel!" ”

When everyone heard the shouting, they hurriedly looked at the window on the fifth floor, and saw a young man dressed in fancy clothes, standing by the window and looking in the opposite direction, followed by the official director John and the black movie star Samuel.

The young man was talking to the two of them as he stretched out his arm and gestured to the window opposite, as if he was testing distance and bearing.

"Is he going to jump off the building? How is this possible? Looks like he's not an adult yet, right? ”

"Oh my God, he's still a kid! It's incredible. ”

Ke Zihua's full-time driver Bandy was also downstairs, looking at Ke Zihua who was preparing by the window, he couldn't help but feel his blood boiling: "Ke, Boss, you will definitely succeed!" ”

Just when everyone was looking forward to this exciting moment, a discordant voice sounded on the periphery of the crowd: "Ke Zihua, if you dare to jump, I'll die for you!" Don't pull me, damn it! John! You come out for me! You have to stop Ke Zihua! Otherwise, I must make you look good! ”
