Chapter 25: You Have Nothing but Strength
At 8:50 the next morning, Lee Hyo-ji, Kim Hee-sun and others arrived at the crew.
Filming is far from being as glamorous as it seems on the surface, especially for this kind of big investment, large-scale production of the movie, the filming process is even harder.
The whole filming site is like a huge warehouse, at a glance are all kinds of props and segmented scenes in the movie, in the center of the venue, 10 meters high, 30 meters long iron shelf, green special effects cloth has been hung, sliding rails laid on the ground, and the staff is preparing Weiya, I think the shooting in the past few days should be special effects stunts.
Seeing the leading actors who arrived early, Jackie Chan, Leung Ka-fai and directors Tang Ji-li, Lee Hyo-ji and Kim Hee-sun stepped forward to greet them.
opened his arms and was about to hug Jackie Chan, who he hadn't seen for several years.
He was greeted not with a hug, but with a powerful fist.
Although he was a little surprised, Li Xiaozhi still reacted, took a small step back, leaned back slightly, and narrowly avoided this punch, but before it was over, Jackie Chan's other punch bullied him again, and he hurriedly raised his right arm to block it.
After all, it's not filming, the martial arts movements are all designed in advance, the fists and feet have no eyes, and it is easy to get injured after a long time, and the two stopped and hugged each other in just four or five seconds.
"Not bad! The skills are not yet fallen. Jackie Chan nodded, with a little relief, and said with a smile.
Tang Jili, who had greeted Jin Xishan on the side, walked over and said in Mandarin full of Hong Kong and Taiwan flavor: "I was still discussing with my eldest brother before, whether to use a stand-in for that part of your action scenes, but now it seems that there is no need for it~"
Reach out and shake his hand.
"I wanted to throw it down, but the doctor didn't allow it, he followed me every day, saying that proper exercise is good for the body, and I can't help it if I want to be lazy~"
"Hahaha~"
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
After everyone greeted each other, director Tang Jili began to arrange the shooting task, but Li Xiaozhi was not included here, he had already read the script, and it was not yet his role.
Before the start of filming, Tang Jili walked to Li Xiaozhi's resting place and handed him a copy of the information.
"This is the OST of this movie, and the original singers were Big Brother and Miss Kim Hee-sun, but the songwriter of this song, Mr. Choi Jun-young, after knowing that you would participate, strongly recommended that you sing it, we discussed it, and agreed that it would be better for you to sing, of course, it depends on your own wishes."
Then I took a brief look at it, the name of the song is "Endless Love", which is very appropriate to the theme of this movie, the lyrics and songs are good, the only thing that is a little difficult is that except for the ** part is Korean, the others are Chinese.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Xiaozhi nodded and said, "Well, there is no problem, but my construction is to record two versions, in addition to mine, the eldest brother and Kim Hee-sun will also record it, and you will discuss which one to use when the time comes." ”
"Well, it's okay to record in the shooting in the next few days, the time is very sufficient, and it is not difficult for you to come, and there will be a staff member to take you to the recording studio later, now take a rest." , patted him on the shoulder, and Tang Jili walked out.

A famous singer said in an interview that he recorded a song, the fastest is 9 minutes, the slowest is 16 hours, and the time for a singer to record a song varies from song to song, but also from person to person.
It only took an hour for the song "Endless Love" to be recorded, but because of the language barrier, some of the pronunciation in the Chinese lyrics was not very accurate, and it took half the time to correct the pronunciation.
After recording this song, Li Xiaozhi can rest, there is no role for him during the filming in Shenzhen, but I heard the staff say before that Kim Hee-sun will have a lot of scenes to hang Weiya, and she didn't need to use Weiya for the roles she played before, and this is also the first time she tried to hang Weiya, and Li Xiaozhi, who was not very relieved, still returned to the filming site of the crew.
is filming Jackie Chan and Lu Huiguang on the roof of the ancient carriage, a fight scene, neither of them has protective equipment, in order to avoid injury, just spread cushions around the bottom of the carriage.
The roof of the carriage is semicircular, and it is relatively slippery, Jackie Chan has a squatting down to avoid Lu Huiguang's sweeping leg action, although he has been very careful, but his right foot slipped and fell from the roof of the shed, although there is a cushion, but it fell from a height of more than 3 meters, it is still uncomfortable, the staff hurriedly surrounded it, Jackie Chan raised his hand to signal that it didn't matter, took a deep breath, calmed the pain in his chest, climbed back onto the prop carriage, and continued to shoot.
didn't bother them with filming, Lee Hyo-ji asked the staff about Kim Hee-sun's location, thanked him, and walked towards the lounge.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Kim Hee-sun's current state is really not very good, the director has already arranged the filming process, and it should have been filming her scene now, but she is really not ready, with her current state, even filming is just a waste of time, so she can only shoot other people's scenes first, so she can get used to it for a while.
When I walked into the lounge, I saw Kim Hee-sun sitting in front of the dresser, a little overwhelmed.
There is air conditioning in the lounge, and the room is not hot, but her assistant still has a magazine in his hand, and the two hands are exchanging to fan her wind, Kim Hee-sun himself also holds a tissue in his hand, wiping the sweat on his forehead from nervousness from time to time, and keeps muttering "what to do" and "what to do", I don't know who he is talking about, I don't even know if he came in, or the assistant pushed her, only to come back to her senses, and saw Li Xiaozhi hurriedly get up and bow and greet.
"Ahh Hello seniors. ”
Li Xiaozhi nodded, raised his hand, and motioned for her to sit down.
"What, because you're going to hang Weiya, you're nervous?" , sat down across from her, picked up a bottle of water on the table, opened it and took a sip.
"Before on the plane, you dared to ask me for help when we met for the first time, you are the second, I thought you were a very bold person~"
After he sat down, Kim Hee-sun sat back in his original position, listened to his words, and lowered his head slightly in embarrassment.
"I used to hear my relatives talk about your predecessors, saying that you have a gentle personality and are very easy to get along with, so you were on the plane before............ to dare to disturb you. ”
Say you have a gentle personality? Li Xiaozhi just smiled and didn't answer the sentence.
"Actually, hanging Weiya is not as scary as you think, but it's quite fun." , put down the water, gestured in his hand and said: "Have you ever played the roller coaster, pirate ship, or bungee jumping in the playground?" ”
Kim Hee-sun shook his head, he is not the kind of character who likes to be thrilled and adventurous.
"Well, you don't have a boyfriend yet, do you?"
Just now I was talking about Weiya, how could this be related to the problem of boyfriend again, Kim Hee-sun wondered: "What does this have to do with whether you have a boyfriend or not?" ”
"It's a great place for couples to build intimacy, and the first time I went to the playground to play a roller coaster, it was Hyo-ri who pulled me to ............," Li Xiaozhi said with a smile when he remembered the old days.
Thinking of the well-known 'bold' character in Lee Hyo-ri's circle, Kim Hee-sun couldn't help but purse his lips and smile.
"I just asked the director, you need a frontal shot for the role of hanging Weiya, so you can't use a stand-in, adjust the situation yourself before filming for a while, and take a deep breath if you are really nervous." Speaking of this, Li Xiaozhi paused, looked into her eyes, changed his previous attitude, and said sternly: "It's not like South Korea, when you go abroad, no one cares if you are a so-called national artist, a national beauty, I can take care of you, only a little bit, the rest depends on your own efforts, how did this heroine get it, you know the process better than me." After speaking, Lee Hyo-ji stood up and asked Lee Geun-sub to leave the medicine he had bought before he came to treat bruises and swelling, and walked outside.
"What an elder said to me back then, I'm giving it to you now." , Li Xiaozhi, who walked to the door, stopped and looked back at her.
"From this moment on, throw away the weakness in your heart for me, and put away the arrogance of your so-called national artist! Now that you have chosen to become an international star, there is only one way for you to go, and that is to be strong! Out of the country, in addition to being strong, you! One! Not! Place! Yes! ”
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Looking at Kim Hee-sun, who fell down again, Lee Hyo-ji looked down at the time on his watch, and he had been shooting intermittently for more than 2 hours, but this shot was still not finished, and the director kept calling cut.
In just seven or eight seconds of this shot, Kim Hee-sun needs to hoist Weiya and fly from one platform to another.
It looks simple, but every time I shoot, I sweat a lot.
Kim Hee-sun is wearing an ancient prop costume, the skirt is as long as a long skirt that mops the floor, plus a wig more than 2 meters long, hanging on Weiya, flying like a fairy descending to earth, but when landing, it is quite dangerous, just because of stepping on the skirt and wig and falling down more than ten times, from the beginning of the landing and falling, plus the pain of hanging Weiya can't help crying, to now it seems that the tears are dry, and I can't cry.
I didn't plan to watch it anymore, so I called Lee Geun-sub, and the two walked outside.
Everyone has their own way to go, and no one else has the right to interfere.

Gansu Province, Jingtai Yellow River Stone Forest Scenic Area.
After taking out a hat, scarf, and sunglasses, and getting dressed neatly, Lee Hyo-ji opened the car door and walked down.
The oncoming wind is very soft, there is not a trace of moisture in the dry air, and when you look around, you can only see the staff and the stone pillars and stalagmites that are tens of meters high and hundreds of meters high in the distance, and have a strange shape.
"Is this the Gobi Desert? Ah, if I get lost in a place like this, I'm going to die! Immediately behind him, Zheng Baoyun, who got out of the car for the second time, couldn't help but sigh after observing the environment.
"It's not the Gobi Desert, it's probably about the same." , Pointing to the staff who were not far away and waving to them, Li Xiaozhi turned around and said, "Let's go over, we can return to China after filming here, I have missed Xiaoli's birthday." After speaking, he took the lead and walked over.
"Birthday~ It's okay when the gift arrives, it doesn't matter if the person arrives............ She's not the usual smug now, and she showed off to me all night yesterday. Zheng Baoyun trotted a few steps to catch up with him, with a wicked smile on his face.
"Women are not so spoiled, I see what you send next year, hum~"
