377 attracts the real Muay Thai king
Wang Xiaohu has to play two roles of 20 and 40 years old in "A Hu", one is in the prime of life and the other is middle-aged, the biggest difference between the two is that the young A Hu has a confident and uninhibited face, prefers to be romantic, and his eyes also reveal a strong aggressive surname. For this reason, Wang Xiaohu decided to shoot the scene of the middle-aged Ah Hu first, and then come back not to shoot the young Ah Hu, otherwise his beard will have to be shaved off again, and it will be a waste of time.
Early the morning of the second day in Thailand, the launch ceremony of "A Tiger" was launched, which is different from the traditional opening ceremony in Hong Kong, in Thailand, it is necessary to invite a local Buddhist master to be present, and he will pray to the Buddha to bless the filming of the film. Originally, Wang Xiaohu didn't want to be so troublesome, but he remembered that Bruce Lee did it when he was filming "Tangshan Big Brother" in Thailand, and he had no choice but to follow the local customs and accept the blessing ceremony that seemed boring to him, but others felt fresh.
The masters finished the French style in the field, and then asked the crew to stand in a row, holding a small bowl with golden sand, and dotting a golden sand mark on everyone's eyebrows, and the words in their mouths were all Thai that Wang Xiaohu could not understand. When it came to Zhao Yazhi, the master finished ordering the golden sand in the center of her eyebrows, and then asked her to turn around and pull up her long hair and put one on the back of her neck.
"Didn't the old guy take advantage of my wife?" Wang Xiaohu was almost about to run away, but was pulled by Yadsanklai beside him: "Brother Tiger, don't be impulsive, the master is asking for a special blessing for Sister Zhi!" ”
"Special blessings, what do you say?" Wang Xiaohu asked depressedly.
After listening to it for a long time, Yodsanklai grinned and said: "The master said that Sister Zhi is a little unaccustomed to Thailand, and she is afraid that her body will not be able to adapt to the rhythm of filming, so she prays for blessings, and this is what the little golden sand on the back of her neck means." ”
"So, old fellow, isn't he?" Wang Xiaohu held his chin and asked a little embarrassed.
"Yes, yes, you see Sister Xiu and Ah Weng They also received such blessings, which are generally mainly for female surnames." Yodsanklai, who grew up in Thailand, nodded vigorously and explained.
Tossed by these old guys, this start-up ceremony wasted most of the day, and the 300 hired extras also watched most of the day's excitement, and took most of the day's salary leisurely, which has always advocated efficiency Wang Xiaohu, I feel very depressed, and if the fuck goes on like this, these locals have to get a free lunch box before they work, a box lunch for 300 people, how much does it cost!
So as soon as the start-up ceremony ended, Wang Xiaohu picked up the loudspeaker and arranged for the crew to enter the set, the so-called studio is of course only a rented gymnasium, which has been decorated with extraordinary fancy.
The first scene is the finale of the film: in order to prove to his daughter that he is a good father, in order to make up for the expectations of PIM and live up to the love of the nun in this life, he resolutely returned to the boxing world, and with the assistance of Mang, he fought to the death with the boxing champion Tawang...... In the end, he heroically proved that he was a real fighter, and also proved that PIM was not wrong in the first place.
Two Brown cameras have been assumed to be in place, mainly shooting panoramic views of the ring from two major aspects of the stadium, and there are three remote control camera lifts also distributed in the middle of the stands, next to the ring, and there are two shoulder-mounted cameras under the ring and on the ring, of course, they are all installed with stabilization brackets, Wang Xiaohu brought high technology from the United States directly applied to the shooting of "A Tiger", which shows how much he attaches importance to this film.
"Ah Biao, Ah Hua, Ah Tai, wait for the three of you to control the extras in the stands, let them always keep shouting enthusiastically, and it is best to shout Tawang's name loudly." Before the official start-up, Wang Xiaohu commanded.
"Yodsanklai, those friends of yours have to work harder today, help Ah Biao and them do a good job of translation, and they will be rewarded when they come back."
Yodsanklai grinned and smirked: "Brother Tiger, don't worry, everything is arranged, in fact, everyone still likes to watch Muay Thai fights." ”
That being said, after the actual start-up, the scene looks a little messy.
Because Thailand does not have its own professional film and television company, the performances of these 300 extras are not perfect, Wang Xiaohu and Luo Zhengyang entered the venue separately under the introduction of the host, and the group of "audiences" did not have the consciousness they should have at all, and did not cheer and shout as Wang Xiaohu expected, either the voice was not loud enough, or the cheers came and went, and there was no sense of rhythm at all, and they were never able to reproduce the crazy and bloody atmosphere that should be in the boxing world.
“cut!” Wang Xiaohu stood in the ring in a blue robe and shouted, depressedly put the blue robe still on the guardrail, pulled Sammo Hung, Yuan Heping and others over and said: "The atmosphere at the scene is not enough, you have the idea of mobilizing the positive surnames of the extras, I ask them to shout loudly and hysterically, and even whistle and scold is OK, but I don't want to see this dejected look!" ”
Wang Xiaohu's side arranged the effort, and there was a sudden commotion in the stands, and everyone looked up, but it was Yodsanklai arguing with a few extras there.
"Let's take a look." Wang Xiaohu stopped what he was doing and walked over with Qi Xiaofu and the others: "Yodsanklai, what happened?" ”
"Brother Tiger, when I came over to arrange it just now, these guys were not convinced, and said that the conditions here were too poor, and they asked for an increase in salary!" Yodsanklai said indignantly: "Brother Tiger, these guys are local thugs, I'll drive them away later!" ”
After Yodsanklai finished speaking, he was about to drive people away, and after a few local thugs in Thailand argued with him for a few words, they left with fierce eyes. "It's okay, Brother Tiger, we can continue to turn it on."
Wang Xiaohu hates being interrupted innocently when filming, not that he is afraid of things, but afraid of trouble, because once the film causes trouble, the film will be forced to stop filming, and the crew will spend no more every day.
After turning on the camera again, the atmosphere at the scene was really much more lively, and when it was close to noon, this scene finally finished filming the scene where Ah Hu and the nun kissed parting and resolutely walked into the ring.
“cut!” Yuan Heping held a loudspeaker at the bottom of the ring and shouted. "That's all for this morning's scene, everyone left the set in an orderly manner to get a boxed lunch outside, don't break the props on the scene!"
There was a cheer in the gymnasium, those extras were not dedicated when they watched the filming, and Wang Xiaohu frowned when he heard that the fanatical energy he showed when he heard about the meal. "Fuck, these Thai monkeys!"
Wang Xiaohu took the red bean soup handed over by Zhao Yazhi and poured it, and his mood was finally a little more relaxed, this is a habit he has developed over the years, he has to drink a bowl of red bean soup every day, no matter where he goes, Zhao Yazhi will first find a place to boil red bean soup.
The gymnasium was very depressed, in order to achieve that depressed and decadent atmosphere, Zhang Yuan released a little smoke in the four corners of the set, and after drinking the red bean soup, Wang Xiaohu patted Zhao Yazhi's duck egg face and said, "How is it, it's suffocated, right?" ”
Zhao Yazhi shook her head with a smile and said: "This is filming, and I am not here for a vacation, the conditions are difficult, it is nothing, I can still hold on." As he spoke, he raised his pink fist and said, "Ah Hu, are you interested in fighting in the ring?" ”
"Huh? How are you" Wang Xiaohu was startled by her, and asked in surprise with his mouth wide open.
Zhao Yazhi blinked: "The scene just now was very sensational, and I almost cried, so I was always a little unhappy in my heart, and I wanted to vent it." ”
"If you want to fight, you have to go back to the hotel, there are too many people here, and people will be shy." Wang Xiaohu smiled evilly and raised his eyebrows.
"Hmph, you bad guy knows how to bully." Zhao Yazhi was angry when she heard this, picked up the red boxing gloves and said, "Anyway, I don't care, I have to teach you a hard lesson in the ring today!" ”
The withdrawal of the 300 extras was proceeding in an orderly manner, Wang Xiaohu looked at the progress, and it would take a little time for them to go out when it was their turn, so he had a lot of fun and said to Sammo Hung and others: "Hey, put the camera up, I'm going to fight with Ah Zhi." ”
"Haha!" Sammo Hung and the others laughed, and Weng Meiling was also happy: "Sister Zhi, come on, beat Brother Xiaohu down to win glory for us!" ”
The little couple got into the ring, Zhao Yazhi behaved very femininely, tied her long hair into a ponytail behind her ears, put on boxing gloves and touched it vigorously and said, "Come on, I'm not afraid of you!" The murderous aura released from Meimu's eyes shocked many people.
"Hey, do you know the rules, Muay Thai ring is actually a woman can be defiled!" Just when everyone was playing with the tidbits, there was a loud shout from the entrance of the stadium, and those temporary spectators who had already withdrawn suddenly ran back, and some even grabbed the advantageous terrain with lunch boxes in their hands.
Wang Xiaohu frowned and looked over, and saw a man wearing a red robe with a headband (auspicious ring, which is the headband worn by the Muay Thai fighter when he entered the arena. The Thai man, with a somewhat angry face, rushed under the ring a few steps, surrounded by a dozen guys dressed in the same clothes.
"Who are you?" Wang Xiaohu asked unhappily, because what this guy said just now made Zhao Yazhi very angry, what does it mean that a woman is defiling Muay Thai when she goes to the ring?
"My name is Naifo!" The Thai said proudly, raising his fists high above his head, and the audience immediately sparked a monstrous cry, which was not deliberately induced, but spontaneously responded by those temporary spectators. Wang Xiaohu's eyes narrowed when he saw this, and he made a gesture to Yuan Heping, Sammo Hung and others behind him, and they nodded immediately after seeing it, and quietly walked down the ring to make arrangements.
"Brother Tiger, he is the Buddha!" Yang Sanclair said excitedly.
"Is Nai Buddha famous?"
"Of course, he, he is the Muay Thai champion in Thailand in recent years, and he is also an international boxing master."
Wang Xiaohu nodded after listening: "Things are starting to get interesting." ”
