Chapter 203. Filming of the new drama begins!
No one bothered him anymore, and Yin Tianyou began to concentrate on reading the script. The title of the play is "Tian Yuzhi", which is somewhat similar to the content of the 2009 version, but there are still some subtle differences.
The story is that in the ancient Joseon Dynasty, Tian Yuzhi and a group of newcomers became disciples of the Taoist Tianguan Taoist and practiced magic together.
Tian Yuzhi is talented and intelligent, has a wisdom root, and soon learned a variety of advanced Taoist techniques such as Dunjia, shapeshifting, and stealth of the Tianguan master, but he always uses his cleverness to cause trouble, so that the master has a headache, this day Tian Yuzhi, who used the escape technique to cause a civil commotion, was discovered by the immortals, and was determined to find the Tianguan master to ask for the guilt, but it turned out that the Tianguan master was killed and disappeared, Tian Yuzhi and his little follower Chu Ling'er were cast a spell and sealed into a picture scroll.
Five hundred years later, for some reason, the youkai who had been sealed began to escape the spell one by one and return to the human world, causing chaos in Seoul. The former immortals have retired to modern priests, monks and fortune tellers, and the immortals who got together again decided to find out the reason for the matter, and there was no way, the three immortals came to the museum where the portraits of Tian Yuzhi and Chu Ling'er were sealed, and released the two. The immortals asked the two to be responsible for catching the banished monsters, but Tian Yuzhi, who was free and uninhibited by nature, was very interested in seeing that modern times were so prosperous, and left the task of catching monsters behind him and was very busy looking for fun, and suddenly met Xu Renjing, who looked the same as the woman he loved 500 years ago, on the street, and began to track her life, so a more interesting story began.
After reading the script, Yin Tianyou covered his scroll and thought for a long time, and it didn't seem difficult to say. But as a newcomer, he felt that he didn't know how to grasp this role. Especially before, Jiang Dongyuan has already played the role of "Tian Yuzhi". If you want to surpass yourself, it is even more difficult than ascending to the sky.
Then. Yin Tianyou remembered a sentence: If you want to perform a role that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, there are two ways, one is to fully devote yourself to the role and treat yourself as the role you will play, and the other is to use superb acting skills to simulate the various feelings and expressions of the character.
Which way should I do it? As soon as Yin Tianyou thought about it, he couldn't help but laugh first, with his current level, where can he talk about any acting skills? Then, there is only one way left to integrate into the character.
Come to think of it. Yin Tianyou closed his eyes and began to recall the scenes and dialogues in the script, gradually forming vivid pictures in his mind. Demon wars, love at first sight, sealing and drawing scrolls, unlocking seals, traveling through time and space, thrilling all the way, are no longer rigid words. It's as smooth and lively as a movie. In his imagination, it was a bit strange to watch himself act accordingly according to the script and say the corresponding words. However, he soon discovered that he was not fully able to grasp the role, and many times the action was stiff. The expression is even more awkward.
"No, if I do act like this. I don't even want to watch the movies that are made. Yin Tianyou sighed deeply and became troubled.
This night, Yin Tianyou recalled many movies he had watched. I even flipped out this Jiang Dongwon's version of the video and watched it several times, but it didn't help me at all, I just thought it was fun to watch a movie, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult to act in a movie. This is the first problem that Yin Tianyou encounters after having special abilities, and he is at a loss.
But after thinking hard all night, Yin Tianyou finally came up with a way, that is, to find someone who wrote the script and learn everything related to the idea of the script.
He called Kim Tae-yong and offered to meet the author of the script.
Kim Tae-yong understood what Yoon Tian-woo wanted to do as soon as he heard it, but he admired his professionalism, and immediately contacted the author of the script and told him what Yoon Tian-woo wanted to see him.
The author of the script is a young man in his twenties, pale, thin, and a bit of a decadent artist. His name is Choi Dong-hoon. Choi Dongxun is a freelancer, this script is his first creation, and then he shines in the Korean film industry, 09 years of this drama box office hit, but at that time he only received 3 million screenwriter fees, but the copyright of the script is still in his hands.
Therefore, when he heard that someone wanted to remake his own drama this time, he immediately raised the price of his revised script by 15 million, but unfortunately, Kim Tae-yong is not a vegetarian, but as a director, he has a lot of bargaining skills, so he finally sold 8 million.
Of course, Kim Tae-yong is very happy about this, after all, an excellent script in South Korea can sometimes even sell hundreds of millions. Choi Dongxun is also very happy, after all, this script is a secondary sale, just like a girl getting married, she has been married twice, and she has earned it.
After the two parties signed the script adaptation agreement, Kim Tae-yong also attached a condition, that is, as the original author of the script, he must be on call to help the actors or crew "solve doubts", that is, to explain and explain the story of the script.
Because of this, Kim Tae-yong was able to call Choi Dong-hoon over with a phone call.
Cui Dongxun was still yawning when he was called, but it is conceivable that he was probably sleeping before, and when Yin Tianyou saw him, he didn't say hello, and went straight to the point: "That's the case, I was decided to play the leading role in this film, but I think it is difficult to grasp this role, so I want to discuss this character with you, as well as this script." β
As soon as he heard Yin Tianyou sincerely make this request, Cui Dongxun suddenly came to his senses, you know, when this drama was filmed before, the other party bought the script, and he didn't ask himself, let alone participate in the creation. The reason is that Kang Dong-won's team has its own strong screenwriters, and what they need is Choi Dong-hoon's script, not him himself at all.
So whenever Cui Dongxun sees the drama "Tian Yuzhi", he feels that he is the father who sold his daughter, and after the sale, he doesn't care, not to mention how uncomfortable he is. But now, someone has taken the initiative to ask for advice.
Burning with passion, Cui Dongxun gushed endlessly from the initial idea to the determination of details. Yin Tianyou listened carefully, and asked a lot of questions, which were not in the script, but according to the character's personality and behavior, such as the previous experience, the identity of birth, in short, it is necessary to clarify all aspects of this character, so that it is convenient for Yin Tianyou to grasp.
The two of them discussed these issues. Completely forgetting everything else, some of the questions raised by Yoon Tianwoo were not considered by Choi Dongxun himself. Then the two of them reimagined the sketch in an attempt to bring the character to life. to the end. Although the script is largely unchanged, more details have been excavated in addition to the content of the script in all aspects, forming a perfect framework, and Yoon Tianyou finally fully understands the character he wants to play, and the scenes that he originally thought were difficult to interpret suddenly became simpler.
When the last problem was also solved, Yoon Tianyou and Choi Dongxun found that it was dark, and they were actually busy all day.
"I'm sorry to delay you for so long." Yin Tianyou himself can endure starvation and skip eating. You can't see everyone as the same as yourself, besides, other people's scripts have been sold, which can be regarded as an obligation to help.
Cui Dongxun didn't care: "It's rare for someone to take my work so seriously, and it doesn't matter if it's hard work." Having said that, the rumbling stomach did not show him mercy.
Yin Tianyou couldn't help laughing, Cui Dongxun's face was slightly red, and he laughed together in the end, and the two of them laughed together at the end. Although they have just met, after a day of cooperation, the two of them are like friends for many years.
In order to express his gratitude to Choi Dongxun, Yin Tianyou accompanied him to the restaurant for a meal. In the process. Choi Dong-hoon told his story. He is a student of the Chinese Department of Pusan University in South Korea, because he does not belong to that kind of prestigious university, and he is not good at personnel entertainment. So I never found a suitable job, and ended up working as a freelancer. Freelancing sounds like a trend, but it's a bittersweet thing. It is also self-aware. I was quite embarrassed.
Although Yin Tianyou is now smooth sailing, he also had a bumpy encounter before, and after hearing about Choi Dongxun's experience, he suddenly felt like a confidant of Choi Dongxun.
After thinking about it for a while, Yin Tianyou said sincerely: "If I say I want to help you, I look down on you, but in the future, if you have a good script and no way, I can help you find someone to read." Speaking of which, I'm kind of a little bit of a relationship now. β
Cui Dongxun's eyes were red, and he couldn't wait to shout three times to express his feelings. But in the end, the two of them didn't say any nonsense, just silently drank ten bottles of soju. But in the hearts of the two people, they may have regarded each other as confidants from now on.
Bidding farewell to Choi Dong-hoon, Yoon Cheon-woo returned home and continued to ponder his role, and this time, thanks to a deeper understanding of the character, the character that came to Yoon's mind became extremely clear.
Anyway, I'm confident that I'm going to finish the film now. Yin Tianyou thought so. If this time is successful, then I will really enter the film industry in the future.
Can it really succeed, though?
He couldn't help but ask himself.
β¦β¦
After Yin Tianyou felt that he was completely ready, the crew began to assemble, and the film was about to start shooting.
After the crew converged, the filming opening ceremony was held first. This is a unique Korean ritual, with incense candles placed on both sides of the low table, an incense burner in the middle, and rice cakes, fruits, and other sacrificial items placed on the table, and then as a director or producer, he begins to kneel in front of the low table and take a pre-written "general book", the content of which is nothing more than "the gods are above, and the new drama has an appointment", and inform the gods of their upcoming new dramas and let the gods shelter them.
Of course, this retro-looking ritual is nothing more than praying for the blessing of the gods and the peace of everything, although it is superstitious, but it is also very interesting. Yin Tianyou found this kind of activity very interesting, as a zombie, he was still begging God to worship Buddha at the moment, who would believe it.
After worshipping the gods, the drama "Tian Yuzhi" officially started filming.
Before that, Kim Tae-yong first gathered everyone, communicated his thoughts to everyone, and then confirmed everyone's research on the script, and it was time to start filming.
And as soon as he arrived at the filming location, Yin Tianyou began to be active, and he couldn't stop for a moment. If this situation is seen by Park Jin-young and other people who are familiar with him, they will definitely be shocked, because it is very different from their impression of Yoon Tianyou, who has always been calm and calm. Even people who are not familiar with it see it, they feel that Yin Tianyou is a little too active, and even the tone of his walking and speaking is a little abnormal.
It was Choi Dongxun who saw the reason first and sighed: "Yes, that's what it looks like, this is the character image I want to create." He had discussed the script with Yin Tianyou, imagining what the character would look like in various situations, and at a glance it became clear that Yin Tianyou was now acting according to what they had originally envisioned. In a nutshell. Yin Tianyou has fully entered the role he will play at this moment. But imagine what it would be like if the characters of a movie appeared in front of normal people. can also understand other people's incomprehension of Yin Tianyou's behavior.
As the director of this drama, Kim Tae-yong saw the appearance of Yoon Tian-woo. couldn't help but shout hello, he originally wanted to talk to Yin Tianyou, he lacked acting experience, the best way is to integrate into the role, now it seems that Yin Tianyou doesn't need to be reminded by him at all, and has realized this on his own. After admiring Yoon Tianwoo's understanding, Kim Tae-yong felt that the next shooting would go smoothly.
However, there is still one thing that makes Kim Tae-yong difficult to decide, and that is about the design of martial arts scenes. First of all, he is not an expert in this area, he is a little unsure of how to do it, and the martial arts design invited is also a little difficult to understand his thinking, and secondly, there are doubts about whether Yin Tianyou can complete difficult actions for the first time filming.
However, the problem was solved immediately. Seeing the set up scene, Yin Tianyou's idea of the plot that he had repeated many times in his heart suddenly came to mind, and he recalled the content of the script and imagined how it should unfold. At the same time, he made a lot of martial arts moves cleanly, and his agility and unbelievable movements suddenly surprised the people present again.
And Yin Tianyou has completely entered the play. I couldn't see the surprised eyes of other people at all, and I was calling around by myself, and there were words in my mouth. Everyone went from not understanding at the beginning to watching at the end. From time to time, there are cheers.
It wasn't until this time that someone suddenly remembered. Doesn't Yin Tianyou still have a nickname called "The King of Kung Fu"? It doesn't look like it's hype, it's all true.
Followed by. Many people have a lot of memories of Yin Tianyou's skills, especially Yin Tianyou seems to have defeated a black boxing champion before, and the taekwondo master wants to challenge him, but in the end he was hospitalized with a myocardial infarction.
Where did Yin Tianyou know that his wonderful skills have made everyone think about it, and the reason why he is so excited is because he is too excited to see the scene, and he can't help but dance.
Ha Ji Won originally had a good impression of Yin Tianyou, and people who have been in the entertainment industry will inevitably wear masks and behave as people, but Yin Tianyou is very sincere, especially through two meetings, Yin Tianyou helped her speak and blocked wine for her, which is naturally easy to arouse good feelings, coupled with his modest personality and perfect appearance, no one will be disgusted with him. The reason why she took on this drama was largely because she felt that it was a pleasure to cooperate with Yin Tianyou.
But after all, she didn't know much about Yin Tianyou, she thought he was just singing, but she didn't expect that he really had such a great kung fu, and then thought about the rumors about him before, she didn't believe it at the time, and now she can't help but feel a little ashamed when she thinks about it.
Yin Tianyou gradually entered his own world, he usually likes to watch movies, especially some Hong Kong kung fu movies, like Jackie Chan, Jet Li kung fu stars are his favorites, especially he loves Bruce Lee the most. It can be said that he has watched every Bruce Lee movie no less than a dozen times. Therefore, the most memorable thing in my mind is Bruce Lee's kung fu moves.
At this moment, those kung fu moves flowed in his mind like a river, becoming clearer and clearer, and he tried to practice it according to the gourd drawing scoop, and he was extremely proficient. As a result, his performances became more and more dedicated, and more and more exciting.
The longer Yin Tianyou performed, the more onlookers there were, and in the end, everyone simply stopped what they were doing and came to see his solo performance. In the end, even Kim Tae-yong, who was working on action design with martial arts design, was shocked, and he couldn't help frowning when he saw that everyone was no longer working, he didn't like his subordinates being so loose. But when he understood what was going on, he was overjoyed. For Yin Tianyou, he felt that he had a future at first sight, so he had some arrogant words, but he saw Yin Tianyou's potential, but his judgment of Yin Tianyou's current ability was too low, he just regarded Yin Tianyou as a young man with potential, but he didn't know that Yin Tianyou's ability was completely beyond his imagination, even if Yin Tianyou told him everything, he would just take it as a joke. However, he understands that judging from Yin Tianyou's current skills, this drama will be easy to film, and that is certain.
At this time, Yoon Tianyou also stopped improvising, and smiled at Ha Ji Won first, which was a bit of a show, and then ran over to Kim Taeyong and said with a smile: "Director Kim, I have some ideas." β
Kim Taeyong was so happy that he waved his hand and said, "What do you think?" β
Yin Tianyou smiled: "I don't know much about filming, it's just a momentary thought, please advise." Then, Yin Tianyou excitedly talked about his idea of shooting this scene, this idea was indeed sudden, when Yin Tianyou found that he could also complete various difficult actions as easily as the protagonist of a kung fu movie, for a while, all the scenes of kung fu movies he had seen appeared in his mind, and with the plot of the script, the imagination of the martial arts scene emerged one after another.
Yin Tianyou pointed to the set up scene, while explaining how someone moved, how he coped with it, and what happened next, and talked endlessly. Moreover, in order to enhance the persuasiveness, he also accompanied the actual action, like a martial arts master telling his own story, and immediately demonstrated on the spot. After some explanation, Yin Tianyou, who should have been sweating profusely, did not change his face, but the eyes of the people who listened to him were straight and speechless.
Yin Tianyou saw that everyone didn't speak, and couldn't help but feel a little weak, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Am I too naΓ―ve to think? β
Kim Tae-yong took a deep breath, Yoon Tianwoo's shock to him was too strong, although he was not good at kung fu films, but as an ambitious director, he had a certain understanding of this aspect anyway, so he immediately saw that Yoon Tianwoo's idea was simply unbridled and creative. Yin Tianyou is a genius, he was born to eat the bowl of rice, he used to think so, but now he is more certain.
Instead of answering Yoon's question directly, Kim Tae-yong looked at the martial arts design first to hear his opinion.
The shock received by the martial arts design was greater than his, and he finally spoke, and his speech was a little unfavorable: "Alas, these ideas are many times better than my own ideas, since there is such a master, what do you want me to do?" β
As soon as these words came out, it was equivalent to saying that Yin Tianyou's idea of martial arts design was stronger than his own, which immediately caused a sensation.
Even Yin Tianyou couldn't help but be excited when he heard this.
It can be said that this drama has not yet started filming, and Yin Tianyou, as the leading actor, has already won everyone's recognition. And this recognition is very important, not that you can buy a bottle of drink for everyone in the crew and invite the big guy to a meal, but let everyone really agree with you from the bottom of their hearts, admire you, and declare that this protagonist "belongs to you"!
