Chapter 216: The Premiere of East Evil and West Poison (Part I)
Gangster movies have always been one of the main genre films of Xiangjiang films, so the success of "Infernal Affairs" in the previous life is, in a sense, a breath of relief for the Xiangjiang movies that collapsed after 00 years in the previous life. What makes the Chinese people even happier is that because of the outstanding performance of this play, the great American director Martin intends to remake this film and rename it "The Departed". Later, Na Bros. Pictures invested $90 million, starring Hollywood stars such as Jack Nicholson, Leonardo DiCaprio and Mattda Méng. The film was a box office success after its release in the United States and received critical acclaim at various film festivals. In the end, he won several awards, which can be said to be purple and red. So much so that Martin said at the Oscars that if he could still encounter a good story like "Infernal Affairs", get a big investment from the film company, and make a film according to his own wishes, he might as well try again. "I'm going to be yòuhuò because it's like getting sick, like being addicted to drugs," he said. This shows how charming the play "Infernal Affairs" is.

"Over!"
He Man said into the microphone in the monitoring room.
Now more than a month has passed since the filming of "Infernal Affairs", because of the adjustment of the schedule, Liu Dehua has been filming other movies for the time being, so in the past two days, Chen Ge's separate scenes have been filmed in advance, and when Liu Dehua comes back, he will shoot his scenes.
Movies are like this, many times you have to adapt to the convenience of the actors to adjust the schedule, anyway, the movie is not shot in chronological order, as long as you master the shooting plan, it is quite simple to adjust the schedule and timeline shooting.
Now the story between Chen Ge and Concubine Liu is filmed in the room, and He Man is watching such a picture in the monitor in another room, so he uses walkie-talkies to contact other people.
Hearing He Man's voice, the scene notes inside also knocked down the field markers, and the camera then stopped working.
Chen Ge walked out of the room, called up the picture and looked at the performance just now, and said after dozens of seconds, "I'm not satisfied, I'm not emotionally depressed enough." ”
"Chen Ge, you are getting more and more strict now, Concubine Liu seems to have performed well just now, right? It's amazing for a young actor to be able to reach that level in terms of acting skills, and you're still not satisfied, I'm really convinced of you. He Man said with a smile, and his words did not hide his appreciation for Concubine Liu.
Concubine Liu's role is not much, but it is very important. So Chen Ge is also very strict with her.
"It's better to be harsh than to hit the streets, right? Okay, everyone's almost rested. Han Dong prepares, and he will shoot your scene next. Chen Ge smiled and said lightly to everyone.
As soon as they heard Chen Ge's words, everyone also threw themselves into work. "Cards! Stop, the shot here is not convincing, change to a medium shot! "Ka - what I need is a city, not publicity! Start over!! "Card! Remember to find a feeling, don't pay too much attention to the sense of form, you who play the old boy also have to cooperate a little, especially Andy, you have to have a play in your eyes!! Don't be at a loss - ""Card! Do it all over again! ""Ka-"
In this scene, Chen Ge asked Han Dong to shoot it six times. Every time Han Dong felt that his performance was good, and even everyone next to him felt that it was very good, Chen Gedong would announce that he would do it again with a blank face.
This time and again, it was simply an ordeal, which made the staff on the scene suffer. Fortunately, Han Dong is competent enough and has the professionalism of an actor, and He Man's words to Chen Ge are meaningless, so everyone can only do it, and there is no other way.
Everyone felt more and more Chen Gedong's seriousness and meticulousness for the film. However, Han Dong is worthy of being a powerful actor in the acting school, and after Chen Ge's explanation and audition, he is also getting better, and slowly not only has the taste of Han Chen, but also shows his own style.
Seeing this, Chen Ge showed a satisfied smile.
"Cards! Yes, pass, the next piece - "Chen Ge waved his hand.
"Oh...... Yes!!! When the staff heard Chen Ge shouting the card, they subconsciously wanted to do it again, but when they heard Chen Ge's words, they reacted and were excited, and suddenly everyone suddenly regained their vitality and was very excited.
Even Han Dong was relieved, he really felt the strict requirements of Chen Ge when he was filming the movie. No matter what movie I made before, I never felt so tired, and I felt that I was a little worse than anything.
Of course, this also made him feel a lot better in just a few performances. And through Chen Ge's analysis of the role of Han Chen, he has become more and more aware of this role, and the more he understands the character of this character, and he is more and more comfortable with his performance.
This is actually Chen Ge's purpose. Through the filming of this scene, Han Dong is familiar with this character, familiar with the role he wants to play, and through the temptation he gave him, let him really grasp his grasp of the role of Han Chen.
Chen Ge didn't want him to imitate Zeng Zhiwei's version, but needed him to perform his own style. So he has been slowly guiding, and in the end, Han Dong's performance did not disappoint Chen Ge. lives up to his potential to act in a heroic character.
Han Chen must not only be domineering, but also have a city government, and cultivate both, that is, Han Chen, the image of the boss is also a classic of the gangster boss in the movie.
After the filming of this scene was completed, everyone in the crew had a good rest and prepared for dinner.
On this day, many actors also came relatively well. Of course, when officially filming a movie, not everyone is in the crew every day, but it means that the actors can come to the crew to shoot their own scenes.
This is also the reason why actors can rush to the scene, in addition to the leading actors, generally actors can concentrate on a certain schedule to shoot their own scenes.

"Chen Ge, don't forget to attend the company's premiere tomorrow night, this time it is also our company's key film." As an economist, Shi Zhimin did not forget to remind Chen Ge of his daily arrangements.
After Shi Zhimin said this, Chen Ge suddenly remembered, it seemed that he would have to attend the premiere tomorrow night, and for this, Chen Ge frowned.
"I can't go without tomorrow's premiere, but I can't stop filming either, and tomorrow's scene is very important, so I can't be there. So, let's shoot tomorrow morning, take a brief break in the afternoon, and go to the premiere in the evening. It just so happens that they are all on the scene! When the time comes, we will be able to drink together......" Chen Ge settled down and arranged things softly.
"Great! Director Chen! ”
Everyone was excited when they heard that there was wine to drink and that they were able to go to the premiere.
You must know that not everyone is eligible to participate in a movie premiere, and the topic of East Evil and West Poison is full of topicality, no one knows whether it is good or bad and does not know the box office results, but if it is not released, it will be a good thing to have earned enough eyeballs, as long as it can go.
"Which movie will be released tomorrow?" Some of the staff members muttered in confusion.
"Hit the street, of course it's "East Evil and West Poison"! Don't you see how much publicity has been going on lately? This movie is Director Chen's first movie! Some people who understand and understand the knowledge said. (To be continued.) )
