Chapter 189: "God of Gamblers" is finished
Chapter 189 "God of Gamblers" is finished
Coming to Macau for filming really made all the staff of the "God of Gamblers" crew have a lot of fun. They have been in the film industry in Hong Kong for so long, and it is the first time that they have enjoyed the shooting of a movie so much.
In addition to borrowing scenery to shoot at the Lisboa Casino, it was unprecedented to board a gambling ship for filming.
Lu Yan naturally also watched everyone's performance, in fact, although the atmosphere of this shooting in Macau was relaxed, there was not much time. Although the first day arrived, everyone was given a chance to rest and recuperate. But the next day, it was a busy shooting.
It took almost a week in Macau for the rest of the footage to be filmed. In particular, there were several shots before, all of which were re-shot, and since I came to Macau, I came to the Lisboa Casino. Then in terms of gambling, of course, it is a re-enactment and visual blessing
has been busy until today, the movie "God of Gamblers" is finally facing the remaining sets of shots, but it is selected in the most luxurious private room of the Jincheng gambling hall.
From the initial investment of 10 million expected by Lu Yan, it has now increased to 20 million. Such overruns are not insignificant. However, the happiest is undoubtedly Wang Jing. And Lu Yan doesn't matter. As long as you can make a better movie, there will always be more return on investment
"Brother Fa, the main thing is in terms of momentum, you must grasp it well. The last scene, I hope we can pass it all way" Lu Yan said with a smile, but everyone was actually waiting for the official completion of "God of Gamblers". Although there are not many staff members who come to Macau, everyone is busy preparing at the moment.
Gambling is a profound art, and the average gambler loses nine out of ten, even if there is a winner, it is also a big luck. Either that, or a deliberate attempt by the casino to attract customers. In this kind of professional casino, whether it is playing cards or rolling dice, there are professional dealers, here, your personal hand speed is not so important, there is no chance for you to shuffle the cards and take the dice, and it is impossible to "get rich" overnight with some small skills. Of course, if it is agreed by both gamblers than "technical" exceptions.
Therefore, the professional gamblers who really want to make a living from gambling are not how to shuffle the cards and cheat, nor listen to dice, but look at the appearance and qi.
Look-a-looking, as the name suggests, is to judge the good or bad of the situation by looking at the small actions of the opponent or the banker. But the people in the gambling are the first to cheat, so the appearance needs to be very keen observation and judgment, otherwise it will be a bad anti-erosion.
Guanqi, this qi, can be said to be momentum, but also can be said to be luck. No one can completely disbelieve that there is such a thing as luck in this world, right? Because there is luck in this world.
In fact, not only in gambling, but in everything, luck is a very special factor, and even a lot of times the dominant factor. Anyone who has ever been involved in gambling knows that luck is a delicate thing. A person can kill all sides in the first half of the night, or he can fart and urinate in the second half of the night, this is all luck at work.
And what Lu Yan asked was that Chow Yun-fat could show his spirit. This requires the brewing of an aura and atmosphere, and Wang Jing is also particularly interested in this scene
Chow Yun-fat and Bao Hanlin sat opposite each other, and the God of Gamblers faced the Gambling Demon
Wang Jing and the others were all staring at the table tightly, while Lu Yan was holding the script and watching it repeatedly. Because in the arrangement of this last scene, he still needs to appear. Because of this, this scene is still directed by Wang Jing. The previous scenes were actually filmed by Lu Yan, the producer.
"Cut" Wang Jing finished speaking, and suddenly shouted: "Yanzai, is it OK?" ”
After putting down the script, Lu Yan immediately made an "OK" gesture.
"Then bury yourself quickly, prepare for the next department, prepare for ......"
And Cheng Xiaodong also hurriedly took the prop gun and handed it over: "Wait for the action, don't need a fancy shot, a line"
Weighing the prop gun in his hand, Lu Yan nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll come out, it's definitely over." ”
It stands to reason that Lu Yan should not use a prop gun, but because he took a real gun that was not loaded. It's just that since it was filmed in a gambling hall, it was obviously not allowed to bring real guns. Xiang Shi is willing to rent a luxury box in the gambling hall for face, and Lu Yan also respects the rules of Macau casinos very much in details
Lu Yan, who was waiting with a gun, saw Wang Jing make a gesture. Seeing that at the moment when the bodyguard of "Chen Jincheng" raised his gun and wanted to kill Gao Jin, he quickly pushed the door in, raised his pistol and said coldly to Chen Jincheng's bodyguard: "Don't move"
The sudden appearance of Long Wu suddenly made the scene fall silent. And Chen Daozai, played by Andy Lau, said with a ruffian: "Haha, it turned out to be my own person, don't move if you do it"
Although Lu Yan's play is completed, Chow Yun-fat and others still have some lines. So he could only maintain this posture, looking very cold. Now Liu Weiqiang is holding a camera at them, although I don't know if he has filmed himself, but Lu Yan, who is in the play, is still very dedicated.
It wasn't until Wang Jing's voice sounded that everyone suddenly relaxed after a 'Cut'.
"God of Gamblers" is officially finished"
The later scenes have already been filmed in advance. Now hearing that director Wang Jing officially announced the completion of the finale, everyone present immediately began to applaud with a 'pop' sound.
couldn't wait for Lu Yan to hand the prop gun in his hand to the staff around him, Wang Jing hugged him and said: "Yan Zai, it's my first time shooting a movie with an investment of 20 million, thank you"
Although Lu Yan also missed the point, when he heard this, he smiled and said: "Brother Wang said this, I also want to thank you for working so hard to shoot "God of Gamblers" Saying that, he suddenly picked up the prop gun and pointed it at Wang Jing and said: "If the box office smashes the pot, it will be a big head"
"Haha......"
"Wang Fatty, then you have to be careful, Yan Zai can't sneak into your house one day." Cheng Xiaodong was also on the side, and immediately joked.
The other person who is most excited is Andy Lau. After being banned by TVB, he finally completed a movie again. And this movie belongs to Dongcheng Images, which was led by Lu Yan and cooperated with Fa Ge, and he didn't have a lot of scenes
"Fa Ge, thank you"
Looking at Andy Lau's emotional appearance, Chow Yun-fat smiled and waved his hand and said: "It's all your own efforts, I hope to continue to cooperate next time."
The champagne that the staff had prepared long ago was also brought over. It's just that it's still in the gambling hall, so of course you can't mess around. Although it was a simple gesture to clink glasses, everyone drank very comfortably.
Making movies with a boss like Lu Yan is undoubtedly a very enjoyable thing.
"Actually, I was thinking that everyone should have a good time in Macau today. However, after thinking about it, I decided to fly back to Hong Kong immediately to hold a finale party" Lu Yan looked at everyone, smiled and continued: "There are so many of us, it's not lively enough, and the other staff are waiting for us in Hong Kong, I have booked the tickets, and the finale party in Hong Kong is also ready...... Fortunately, everyone didn't disappoint me, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to go back later. The finale cocktail party can only be enjoyed by them"
Suddenly, Lu Yan saw Chow Yun-fat who was pulling his hair, and suddenly couldn't help but say, "Brother Fa, in order to give you a style." Our crew has a lot of extra hairspray money, do you think we should subsidize it?"
"Haha......"
"Fa Ge has money, he will definitely make up for it."
"Go, go, go ......" For the coaxing staff, Chow Yun-fat suddenly glared and said: "For the sake of shooting, my hair is so damaged." Speaking of which, it should be Yan Zai who compensated me for the cost of soup and medicine."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wang Jing is the director. If you have any questions, please contact him"
"The birds are all gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooked......"
"Fake or not?" As soon as Lu Yan and Cheng Xiaodong heard this, they immediately laughed and said: "Wang Fatzi is actually selling literature"
In such a noisy and joyful atmosphere, everyone got on the plane and rushed back to Hong Kong to hold the finale party of "God of Gamblers". The filming of the trip to Macau obviously made the staff who came to remember it vividly
ps: It seems that Xue works very hard to maintain 10,000 words a day, which is really difficult. "God of Gamblers" is finally finished, but the subscription is plummeting, and it is not a taste in my heart, move forward silently, ten thousand words a day is a challenge for like snow, since it is a challenge, then face the difficulties, and I hope that everyone can support it. Let "Ace Director" go more brilliantly
