Chapter 56: Masters, Masters, Masters, Masters

Sunday, July 12.

The weather was a little cool in the morning, Zhou Yi worked as usual, hurried up, and finished filming some campus scenes. After lunch, he set off to Yousheng's branch studio in Yanjing, and Xi Wei drove him over. The assistant is familiar with the situation, and she is responsible for contacting everything.

The villain is not big, the ability is not small, and it is very useful!

Teng Tiangang continued to stay in school and accompany Tang Yan to film, and Zhou Yi didn't need him for the time being.

Yousheng's studio is located in the North Third Ring Road of Haidian District.

Xi Wei drove the Land Rover, galloping all the way, not slow, and quickly rushed over.

Looking at the time, the two arrived in advance and had called in advance.

Naturally, there is a special person to receive Zhou Yi on the other side of the studio.

When he arrived at the location, Zhou Yi was a little surprised that the people who received him were none other than the manager of Qi Lianshan sent by Yousheng, and Miss Suikashi, the agent of Shui Yuexun, who were all old acquaintances who participated in the negotiations last time, and everyone had dealt with each other.

In order to shoot an easter egg that lasted less than two minutes, Yousheng actually sent a manager to receive it, and the specifications were indeed not low.

Of course, given Zhou Yi's identity, this is a normal thing.

It's normal for Yousheng to come forward, but Kusakari Xiang Suizi is not Yousheng's person, and he actually came forward on behalf of Shui Yuexuan, which shows that he really attaches great importance to it. It is estimated that this Miss Xiangsui is also a little curious about Zhou Yi and wants to follow her.

The two sides met and exchanged pleasantries for a while, and they were very polite.

They know each other well.

Next, Manager Qi Lianshan invited Zhou Yi and Xi Wei's assistants into the large studio in the front shooting area.

What exactly is arranged inside, Zhou Yi is really curious.

When the two of them went in to take a look, they suddenly felt spectacular, and Assistant Xi Wei was amazed again and again.

Just for the filming of the easter egg footage of less than two minutes at the end of "Breaking Bad", a South American jungle-style mercenary bar was actually built in the big studio, it is really South American jungle style, there are all kinds of plants, I don't know where they got it, maybe it's a fake prop? But this is so realistic, the scene is beautiful, and there is not the slightest trace of falsehood.

It can be seen that the crew has really worked the studio set.

And the level of the set designer is really high, and he is definitely a high-end talent.

Zhou Yi has seen what it means to make blockbusters.

This kind of interior scenery is really good.

This is the battlefield where the filming scene will be filmed later.

Yousheng is really wealthy, but Zhou Yi deserves this kind of treatment.

His appearance will definitely add a lot of color to this fashion action movie, and the benefits brought by it are immeasurable, far from being comparable to the set of this mercenary bar. To figure out these values, it is understandable that Yousheng did this.

Nowadays, many crew members are preparing for work in the studio, and they are very busy, and all kinds of set details are designed and arranged meticulously.

Although it was only a few shots in the studio, the other aspects were not compromised in the slightest.

Especially in terms of scenery, it is even more refined, and there will definitely be no confusion.

Manager Qi Lianshan took the opportunity to introduce some information to Zhou Yi, so that he could understand and facilitate everyone's cooperation.

At this time, some of the main members of the crew came over to say hello.

Manager Qi Lianshan introduced Zhou Yi, these people are mainly Lou Yuansheng, the assistant director of the crew, Xie Yingshou, the action director, and Lang Hannian, the photographer who is responsible for filming this scene. Although they are all deputy positions of the crew, Zhou Yike will not despise them, after all, Yousheng is one of the six major Chinese companies, and it is not easy to gain a foothold in such a large company, even if it is a deputy position, and it cannot be taken lightly.

Since Yousheng sent them over, whether they can take charge on their own or not, at least it shows that their work ability is fine.

Zhou Yi shook hands with these people one by one and exchanged greetings.

When we first met, both parties were very humble and polite.

That kind of situation of dragging 258,000 will definitely not occur.

Xie Yingshou seems to be very interested in Zhou Yi, and the action director will naturally look at excellent action actors differently, and it is normal to be interested. The two chatted a few more words, and Xie Yingshou also gave Zhou Yi a preventive injection in advance: "Zhou Sheng's action scenes, I have seen them, they are indeed very beautiful." Although our scene is just an easter egg at the end of the film, it will definitely not cope with the past. I can't say how clever I am when it comes to movement design, but I definitely put a lot of effort into it. A few movements are quite difficult. I heard that Zhou Sheng is the real eighth stage of national arts, no problem! ”

Zhou Yi smiled briskly: "Of course it's no problem." Professionally, I am not modest and polite, and I should be benevolent. Let's put it this way! As long as it is an action that a person can do, I can do it. If Mr. Xie can design it, I can make it. Rest assured. ”

This kind of answer is very confident, very courageous, and really domineering.

Everyone laughed.

Xie Yingshou nodded and said, "That's good!" That's it! Zhou Sheng is confident, and I will design well. ”

Manager Qi Lianshan also gave Zhou Yi a detailed introduction, this action director Xie Yingshou is from Guangdong, Yousheng headquarters moved to Guangdong and Guangzhou, recruited a group of local martial arts martial artists, Xie Gui is one of them. He was very young at that time, and now he is middle-aged, just like Director Lou and them.

Just now, he kept calling Zhou Yi "Zhou Sheng", which is also a common name used in Guangdong and Guangzhou.

After all, when we meet for the first time, we are not familiar with each other before, and we are strangers, and using this kind of title can increase the intimacy of both parties to a certain extent. Zhou Yi understands the reason, he will not be uncomfortable, and he will not think that the other party does not respect him.

This is precisely a form of respect.

Although Zhou Yi is very young, his status is there, and the other party will not rely on the old and sell the old, and call him in the tone of the elders to the juniors, but there is no way to call Yi Shao or anything, some people in the big and young circles in the capital call it that, but not everyone is suitable for this kind of title.

Using a title like "Zhou Sheng" is good for both parties, no problem.

According to Manager Qi, Xie Yingshou has developed smoothly over the years, and now he can take charge on his own and become an action director. Moreover, the movement design style of Xie Yingshou is not quite the same as that of other movement directors, and the difference is obvious. He prefers to be cool and ruthless, with an evil style, but some of the fighting actions are very beautiful and can stand in their own right. It's a pity that some of today's action actors can't meet his requirements, and they often can't perform brilliantly, and they blame the action director. This is a very helpless thing, no matter how capable the action director is, he must also have excellent action actors to cooperate.

After all, the action director does the work behind the scenes, and he can't perform on stage himself.

No wonder Xie Yingshou had a good eye for Zhou Yiqing before, which was the reason why he was happy to see the hunt.

Zhou Yi is indeed very interested in this action scene, and feels that his fighting scene is outstanding, and his performance must be no problem, no matter what difficulty the action is, he can perform it smoothly and easily. You can try it out and see the effect.

Next, during this time, the two sides will have to communicate more and prepare for the shooting.

The afternoon is the time for training and running-in, and the evening will officially start filming.

The time of the plot in the play is at night, so there is no rush in filming.

There's still a lot of time.

There was time left to talk about the play, and Manager Qi Lianshan and Miss Kahoko Kusakari left the stage, allowing the crew to communicate on their own. Managers and brokers don't need to get involved in professional matters and stay here as an eyesore.

Director Lou and the others took Zhou Yi and the little assistant Xi Wei to the main venue for filming, that is, a very conspicuous big red round table in the middle of the mercenary bar, sat in a circle, and began to talk about the drama seriously.

Although Zhou Yi got the easter egg script in advance, he still had to listen to the director's specific explanation, and there were some subtleties to understand the director's true intentions. Besides, whether the script was created or the first draft was made, and some details would not be filmed according to that script. The director has the director's idea, and the action director has the idea of the action director. They may not necessarily follow the scripts created by the screenwriters.

Zhou Yi understood this and listened to them very carefully.

Director Lou is responsible for talking about literary dramas, and Director Xie is responsible for talking about action scenes.

The division of labor is very clear.

Director Lou first talked about literary drama, at least let Zhou Yixian fully understand the plot framework.

Even if it's just a two-minute simple plot, you have to understand it clearly before you can shoot it.

"Mr. Zhou, our scene is an easter egg at the end of the two minutes, and the two minutes also include the two scenes before and after, which will take more than a minute, so our literary performance is dozens of seconds. Don't look at the very little time, but it does need a literary performance. ”

Director Lou is not from Guangdong, and his name for Zhou Yi is "Mr. Zhou", which is very formal.

Neither put on a show, nor show flattery, everyone is a legitimate working relationship.

The director of Yousheng doesn't need to stammer anyone.

"Specifically, Mr. Zhou, the master you play, Mr. Gao Gao, haha, it's not called that now, they haven't thought about it before the screenwriters, but they must have a name."

Zhou Yi also smiled, that's for sure. Seeing that filming is about to begin, it's impossible to even figure out the name of the character.

"Our master is called Gao Hunt, the hunting hunter, very cool."

Zhou Yi nodded, indicating that he understood.

The name can, it doesn't matter.

As long as he plays well, who cares what he is called.

"The villain of the first part of our "Thunderbolt Baby" is also called Gao Shou, which is the longevity of life. The character you play is a brother to him, but the name is homonymous, and he is a good and a murderer, which seems to be the opposite. The screenwriter deliberately designed it this way. ”

This can be regarded as ingenious, Zhou Yi can understand, just listen carefully.

"At the beginning of the play, Mr. Zhou, you play a mercenary who is skilled and proficient in swordsmanship, sitting at the main seat of the table, wearing the military uniform of a mercenary, our costume group is designed, the style is good, and then wearing small round sunglasses, looking a little unruly, holding a tiger stripe military dagger with a ring in his hand, with a bang, he cut open a Peruvian passionflower, which is the snot fruit. That was specially bought by our crew for filming. Peru has just been exported to us this year, and the quantity is not much, so I finally bought it. ”

"Is it so real? If it were our company, we would definitely make up the numbers with apples. Zhou Yi said with a smile.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh. The difference between a big production and a small cost is also reflected in some of these details.

"Alas! No way, pay attention to the details! Who let the screenwriter engage in this kind of cheating setting, and made our props master miserable. Let him make a passionflower himself, that's too troublesome, just buy it for real! ”

"Haha!"

"This scene is not difficult, you peel off the passionflower, hand it to a beautiful woman who is kidnapped next to you, insert a small spoon into it, and give it to the beautiful woman to eat. This scene is done. This beauty is Gao Hunting, the character you played, a mistress kidnapped from a big drug lord in South America, so that it is convenient for the next plot. However, the actor who plays this beautiful mistress is not simple, she hasn't come yet, you will be able to see it later, there will be surprises. ”

"Oh?"

Zhou Yi was surprised, what would he be surprised? He doesn't know many actors in the industry at all, especially actresses, who else does he know besides Qiu Cao? What's so surprising about this? But he didn't ask too much, and he would find out later.

It is estimated that the mistress of the South American drug lord cannot be played by a Chinese actress.

It is even more impossible for the top domestic actress to play such a supporting role for Shui Yuexun.

So, who would have guessed?

Director Lou continued: "In this scene, you have to have a fancy shot of a knife, and you think about the performance by yourself, which is also the job of the action director. I'm just asking for it, and you'll discuss it yourself and see how you can play it better. ”

Zhou Yi reconciled and nodded, fully understanding what the director meant.

"Next, a powerful killer leader sent by the big South American drug lord, with three vicious men, chased all the way to this mercenary bar, and they broke in directly, and these people were all Gurkha mercenaries, armed with Gurkha dogleg scimitars, surrounded this table, and asked you to hand over this mistress beauty to them to take away, and then you didn't agree on a word, and there was a fight."

"The first scenes are very short, cutting crocus, playing with knives, inserting spoons, handing them over, there are no lines, just a few seconds of play, and then these people break in, and the next play is the work of the guide, he will tell you."

Zhou Yi nodded and looked at Xie Yingshou.

Xie Yingshou took over the conversation and continued: "The design of our fight scene is very distinctive, mainly to highlight the danger of tiger striped military daggers against ********** close combat, all of which are short knives against short knives, straight daggers against dog legs, and the knife technique is fierce and dangerous. ”

Director Lou next to him smiled: "Let's solve the guidance in this style, hand-to-hand knife combat, military dagger against scimitar, very cool and dazzling, but the actors are really not good to act, slow and slow, it is not good-looking." If you want to act well, it's not easy, it depends on the actor's skills. ”

Zhou Yi smiled briskly: "I understand." Rest assured! Leave it to me, it's sure to be fine. ”

Xie Yingshou nodded and said: "It's good that Zhou Sheng is confident, there must be real kung fu in the eighth stage of the national arts, I don't think it's a big problem." ”

Lang Hannian, the photographer who has been listening, said with a wry smile: "It's very cool to guide you in designing, but every time I shoot your scene, I am very bitter, the shooting is too difficult, and I need skills very much, otherwise it will not look good when I shoot it, it is not as easy as other people's punches and kicks, and it is easy to shoot." ”

Everyone laughed, it was really difficult to shoot, but it was good to look at it.

Zhou Yi likes to challenge this kind of difficulty.
