Chapter 147: The Heroes' Meeting
The set of "The True Color of Heroes".
This scene is filmed of Song Zijie and Jackie participating in the cello exam at the opera house. Yang Lin's version of "The True Color of Heroes" is definitely much stronger than the original version in terms of the dragon lineup, which is also his consistent characteristic, or a ridiculous habit: buddy just wants every film to make the audience sigh many years later, the dragon set is very gorgeous! So in this "The True Color of Heroes", Yang Lin plans to make him a group of heroes, and he has even been thinking about when to shoot "East Becomes West".
For example, in this opera house examination play, the four judges are Lin Zixiang, Chen Baiqiang, Zhang Xueyou and Shen Dianxia. Both now and in the future, the combination of these four is stronger than the original. Lin Zixiang and Chen Baiqiang both maintain a good relationship with Yang Lin, Zhang Xueyou is now Yang Lin's younger brother, and Shen Dianxia was invited by Chen Baixiang. Although she is very busy, Shen Dianxia, the fat sister, has always been very enthusiastic, and she will never refuse this kind of "bringing newcomers", and her popularity in the entertainment industry is very good. So much so that after the divorce of Zheng Shaoqiu, Zheng Shaoqiu was simply pointed out by thousands of people, and he was scolded.
This scene is very simple, so simple that it took three hours to shoot and has not yet been filmed.
The reason is that the future "diva" Miss Chen Huixian always can't get into the play.
"Click!"
"Chen Huixian, what are you doing?" Yang Lin's face sank like water, and he gritted his teeth and glared at Chen Huixian. It's just such a simple lens, it's not good to shoot it over and over, how can people be stupid like this? Fortunately, Chen Huixian does not have many scenes, otherwise according to this progress, a "True Colors of Heroes" will not be filmed until the return of Hong Kong. He wondered, why is an elf and eccentric girl, no matter what song she can remember once, but she can't film? No wonder in her previous life, with Chen Huixian's status and influence, there was no director looking for her to film.
At this first noon, Chen Huixian didn't know how many times Yang Lin had been said, and when she saw Yang Lin getting angry again, she was so frightened that she shrank her hands and feet, bit her lip, her big eyes blinked, she looked at Shen Dianxia with tears in her eyes, and her face was full of grievances and grievances: "Godmother"
I don't know when, Zhang Xueyou recognized Shen Dianxia as his godmother. Chen Huixian, who was with Zhang Xueyou all day, thought it was funny, so she also followed Zhang Xueyou and called her godmother. Shen Dianxia also likes this smart and clever little girl, and she loves her very much. At this time, when he saw Chen Huixian's aggrieved appearance, his heart hurt, and he hurriedly went up to grab Chen Huixian's thin shoulders, glared at Yang Lin fiercely, and said, "Isn't this the case for newcomers?" What are you yelling about? Don't think that if you are a director, you will be very hanging, and you will not give me face at all. β
Lin Zixiang smiled silently, Chen Baiqiang and Zhang Xueyou lowered their heads to hide their faces, their shoulders shrugged, and they couldn't laugh. Even Zhang Guorong was smiling so happily that way. Usually, although Yang Lin is light and light, he is all friendly, but after all, his identity is there, and his ability and talent are unanimously respected by everyone, so he respects Yang Lin very much. But Shen Dianxia doesn't care which one it is, the old lady scolds you if she is unhappy, you bite me?
Yang Lin looked up to the sky and was speechless, and sighed gloomily. What's going on? Why did you bring Shen Dianxia, the fat woman, here? Shen Dianxia is the first generation of TVB artists, and her seniority in the Hong Kong entertainment industry is definitely good. In the sixties, he starred in countless films, although most of them were supporting roles, but his comedy performances became household names and became a guarantee at the box office. In the 70s, he formed the "Silver Rat Team" with Deng Guangrong, Xie Xian, Qin Xianglin and others, which became popular all over Hong Kong and Taiwan. Yang Lin is sure that if he dares to fight back, he promises that when he gets up tomorrow morning, everyone in the Hong Kong entertainment industry will scold him. The key is that Shen Dianxia is not unreasonable against him, people are just defending their goddaughter, is this also wrong? Yang Lin stared, not knowing what to do.
Chen Huixian was embarrassed when she saw Yang Lin, and she regretted a little in her heart, she shouldn't use Shen Dianxia as a shield. Shen Dianxia's surname is bold and kind, especially to her, so she is naturally not polite to Yang Lin. Chen Huixian bit her lip, looked at Yang Lin timidly, and said cautiously: "Director Lin, do you want to come again?" "I wanted to call Brother Lin, but I didn't dare to call it. She is the same age as Yang Lin, but Yang Lin is a month older than her and much more mature than her. But whenever Yang Lin is unhappy, often she can make Yang Lin smile with a voice of Brother Lin, and the clouds turn sunny. She didn't know Yang Lin's dirty thoughts: Calling brother after the idol song is very fulfilling!
Seeing her cautious appearance, Yang Lin was angry and funny, and waved his hand: "I've told you many times, don't pay too much attention to performance and facial expressions, try to be natural." The character of Jackie is the kind of cute surname who is very kind-hearted and a little confused without scheming. When you do this, it makes people feel stupid and too far from the character's surname. Remember, it's confused, not stupid, do you understand? β
Chen Huixian nodded as if she didn't understand, and Yang Lin was speechless for a while. Buddy's ability to "train actors" is tried and tested and well-known in the industry, why is it completely impossible to come to this Chen Huixian? Is it because her kung fu hasn't arrived at home, or is Chen Huixian's mind structure different from that of normal people?
Shen Dianxia was also a little anxious for Chen Huixian, and said softly: "Don't think about it so much, in fact, your surname is quite similar to this jackie, just try to play yourself, don't think of it as filming, it will definitely be much better." β
"Is that okay?" Chen Huixian blinked her eyes and said in surprise: "Isn't filming just to act according to the script?" β
Shen Dianxia smiled bitterly, this girl is really stupid and cute: "I don't know, anyway, you just give it a try, maybe it works very well." β
"Oh." Chen Huixian tilted her head and thought for a while before she said to Yang Lin, "Let's start?" β
Yang Lin waved his hand helplessly: "Begin." β
I have to say that Shen Dianxia's proposal is very effective. Chen Huixian took herself out of the state of filming and acted according to her own surname, and the effect was really good. Although there are some discrepancies with the setting of the script, Yang Lin can't care about it, if he goes down with Chen Huixian mushrooms, this scene will not be filmed.
ng again, and the second time, Yang Lin was barely satisfied, and it was over.
Chen Huixian clenched her little fist and jumped up excitedly, and her little face was flushed and she shouted: "Yay! "It's like winning an Academy Award.
Yang Lin shook his head, directly ignored her, shook hands with Lin Zixiang, Chen Baiqiang, and Shen Dianxia respectively, said a bunch of words of thanks, and finally said, "I have a treat at noon today." "When people come to make cameos, they don't need to be paid, Yang Lin naturally has to fulfill the courtesy.
Lin Zixiang pulled his mustache and smiled: "Forget it, everyone is busy." When I came to say that "The True Color of Heroes" had a celebration banquet, we couldn't miss a few of us. β
Chen Baiqiang also said: "That is, the most important thing is to have time to write a few more songs for my brothers, and I will come back next time." β
Yang Lin smiled: "What did Danny brother say?" When there is a need, just ask, never shirk. "Yang Lin is like this, ordinary people speak, he rarely postpones it, and he tries to meet the requirements as much as possible. Because he is talented and capable, plus he can be a person, his popularity in the circle has always been very good. Just by looking at these characters who usually come and go, you can see that the status is getting higher and higher.
"Warn you, if you dare to be fierce Huixian, beware of me blocking you on the set and scolding you!" Shen Dianxia didn't forget to threaten Yang Lin before leaving, and then turned around and instructed Chen Huixian: "Don't be afraid of him, if you dare to be murderous, tell me, I'll clean him up!" At most, when the time comes, change to a record company, what's the big deal? β
Chen Huixian saw that Yang Lin's face had darkened, and she couldn't hold back a smile and sent Shen Dianxia to the car.
When she returned to the set, she saw Yang Lin waiting for her, with a tiger face: "I found a backer, I'm very happy?" β
Chen Huixian bit her lip, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.
Yang Lin sat down on a chair with a golden knife: "I'm thirsty, pour a cup of coffee." β
"Oh." Chen Huixian didn't dare to refuse, and obediently turned around and trotted to pour coffee, like a little sister who did sundries. Looking at Chen Huixian's delicate back and feeling the pleasure of "abuse" after the song, Yang Lin's heart was a little balanced.
The drama "The True Colors of Heroes" has not progressed fast because of Yang Lin's high standards and strict requirements.
The scene of counterfeit banknote printing was contacted by the Public Relations Bureau of the Police, and Chen Wendong directly negotiated and coordinated, and filmed on the spot at HSBC's banknote printing factory.
The entire uncropped dollar in the shot is actually photocopied. HSBC only prints Hong Kong dollars, not US dollars. According to the law, it is actually illegal to do this, but fortunately, Chen Wendong has a wide network and promised to destroy it directly under the supervision of HSBC after the filming is completed, so as to obtain the consent of the US Embassy. But Brother Ma played by Zhou Yunfa lit a cigarette with a face value of 100 US dollars, but it was a genuine banknote.
As a result, Zhou Yanfa, who has always been known for his acting skills, took this shot several times, either his hands were shaking, or he looked nervous. Holding banknotes and lighting cigarettes, basically no one thought about this idea, and Zhou Yanfa was a little nervous. You must know that the salary of Fa Ge at this time is actually very small, and from the bottom of people's hearts, a hundred dollars in this era is enough to top a thousand yuan in the next life, and the vibration of watching money turn into ashes in front of your eyes is an indescribable experience. In the end, Yang Lin was so angry that he simply shouted: "Brother Fa, if you continue to shoot like this, your brother will go bankrupt!" Only then did Zhou Yanfa cheer up and finish shooting this shot.
Luckily, the rest of the shoot went well. Zhou Yunfa and Dillon are both old fritters, although Zhang Guorong, a rookie, is new enough and inexperienced, but driven by the two old drama bones, he played at a super level, which made Yang Lin very satisfied. There is basically no problem with the acting skills and state of the actors, and the most difficult thing is, of course, the shooting of various special effects.
Yang Lin intends to keep the plot of the play "The True Color of Heroes" unchanged at all, and even the actors' lines try to respect the original work, as long as it is the lines that Yang Lin can remember, he basically does not change a word, because he thinks that this is already "perfect", and there is no need to modify it.
But there are still some changes to the gunfight scene, and there are a lot of naΓ―ve and backward post-production in the original work. For example, in some gunfight scenes, the flash of light coming out of the muzzle after the gun is fired is a typical post-production time when the computer adds it. It's just that Hong Kong's computer technology at this time is really bad, and the effect is very fake, there is no sense of realism, and the visual effect is very poor.
The effect that Yang Lin wants is not the flash after the shot, but the flame and smoke of the bullet out of the chamber, which is more realistic and can give people more visual shock.
Fortunately, these special effects personnel he recruited in the mainland have their own experience in this area, and Yang Lin's words and deeds during the filming of "Assembly Number" made it difficult to make such special effects at all, and the level far exceeds that of Hong Kong's special effects technology.
In another experiment, the effect of the bullet disemboweling produced by the gunpowder formula configured by the mainland special effects technician, coupled with the explosion of the blood bag designed by Yang Lin, made Luo Lixian stunned, and then excitedly shouted "Hollywood level". The Hong Kong stunt team led by Luo Lixian is superior to stunt scenes such as flying cars, but in such explosive visual effects, it is completely defeated by mainland technicians. Yang Lin thought about the naΓ―ve special effects production in the mainland in the future, and couldn't help but sigh, his golden doll was starved to death by himself, and the whole world was crying and shouting and waving banknotes to borrow other people's children, how sad was it? Fortunately, he was caught by himself in this life, and he not only wanted to inherit these legacies, but also carry them forward in his hands, so that the Chinese people's own special effects have the ability to compete with the world.
"The True Color of Heroes" is being filmed slowly and delicately.
The Hong Kong entertainment industry in 1985 was immersed in the tranquility before the storm.
No one thought that the first to break the silence came from the music world. (To be continued.) )
