Regarding the invitation of the judges of the Academy Awards, Shao Shuaijun was moved at the beginning, especially what Chen Jiashang said, to praise Shao Shuaijun as the leader of the directors of the three places. But after thinking about it, Shao Shuaijun felt that he couldn't be in a hurry, there were historical factors across the Taiwan Strait, and the exchanges between the directors association were more about adhering to the meaning of the peak.

Although Shao Shuaijun thinks that filmmakers have their own political positions, there is no position for films, and the great integration of films between the three places and the two sides of the strait has bright prospects and is also an inevitable trend. As the most direct part of the publicity channel, filmmakers also have to figure out the intentions of Shangfeng and act according to various rules.

Is it time to do it, is it time to do the action, it is better to ask the above.

In the end, the above answer was ambiguous, and Shao Shuaijun also extinguished his mind and still focused on making movies.

When the reporter asked, he naturally wouldn't tell the truth, because the above had to be careful, so he resigned as a judge. After prevaricating with an excuse, the second reporter asked again: "Director Shao, you started shooting movies in the mainland, and then entered Hollywood, as a director, you are successful." Why do you come to Hong Kong to shoot movies now, as a Hong Kong person, I don't want to admit but I must admit that the era of Hong Kong films has passed, what do you think? ”

"Whether it's the mainland, Hollywood, Hong Kong, Bollywood, Thailand, etc., in my opinion, as long as it's suitable for filming, it doesn't make a difference where you shoot. Hollywood does make money when making movies, but if you don't shoot well, you will lose money, and the most important thing is to choose according to the script. You have a good script and idea, even if it's just going to the Arctic Ocean to make a movie. You can still make money, right? ”

Shao Shuaijun made an analogy: ""Roupu Tuan" is an ancient Chinese literary work, and the audience must be a market influenced by Chinese history, that is, East Asia and Southeast Asia. In fact, I also want to shoot directly in the mainland, but there is no classification system in the mainland, so Hong Kong is the best location, and Golden Harvest is also a long-established film company in Hong Kong, everything is very commonsense, isn't it? ”

"And what do you think of the decline of Hong Kong films?"

"I think Hong Kong filmmakers are more suitable to look at this issue than me, if you have to ask me to answer, I don't think we should be obsessed with any mainland films, Hong Kong films and treasure island films. Now a filmmaker in three places. Wouldn't it be better to communicate with each other often, cooperate with each other, and call Chinese movies and Chinese films in a unified manner. ”

"The first time I was filming a Fengyue film, I must have encountered a lot of embarrassing things. Do you expect anything like that? ”

Shao Shuaijun said in his heart, of course I have expectations. If you are a man, you will have expectations. But he said solemnly: "First of all, we make movies to analyze Fengyue from a professional point of view. Secondly. I'm not a director, I'm just a producer. I'm in charge of the investment, the crew's production schedule, and the introduction of IMAX-3D technology, not the specific directing. Therefore, I will answer so many questions at this press conference, so let Director Bai answer your questions about the movie. ”

Compared with Shao Shuaijun, who was too lazy to answer, Bai Jifei did not refuse to come, and quickly took over the following scene. began to publicize how artistic "IMAX-3D Yupu Tuan" is, how he wrote such an earth-shattering script, and how he used his incorruptible tongue to persuade Shao Shuaijun to agree to invest, etc.

In short, after a press conference, although the controversy about Fengyue Film was not quelled, Shao Shuaijun's goal was also achieved, and he was removed from it.

As Shao Shuaijun said, he is a director, and he can't ignore the esoteric topic of sex because of the perspective of ordinary people. Li Yi understands, Zhang Yimou understands, but as a great director, who doesn't understand sex? This is an eternal and profound artistic topic.

If you want to impact the world's great directors, you can't get around it. This is as worthy of being viewed correctly as the bed scene and kiss scene.

At the end of the press conference, the makeup photos of the actors were shown to the outside world.

Ye Shanhao's image of a scholar, Lan Yan's bewitching eldest lady, King Ning's unangry and arrogant, the enchanting dress of the old man of Bliss, and the seductive dress of the Japanese VA actress quickly attracted the attention of reporters. Purely in terms of appearance, except for a few villains, they are basically handsome men and beautiful women.

Moreover, the costumes have also undergone strict research and careful design, trying to restore the historical style and fully three-dimensional beauty of the theme of Fengyue. Only the most beautiful graphics, filmed in IMAX-3D, will achieve the most perfect cool experience.

This is a movie used to steal the limelight of "Avatar", if it is shoddy, when "Avatar" is released, it will be scolded sooner or later. "Avatar" has the beautiful scenery of the vast landscape, there are peculiar characters and monsters, and "IMAX-3D Jade Pu Tuan" has the most beautiful bed scenes, the most landscape painting style, and the most luxurious and extravagant scene layout, so that in the contrast, do not fall behind.

If possible, Shao Shuaijun even wants to hit the North American market......

In July in China, there are three news topics that are the most topical, the biggest is naturally the coming of the Olympic Games, the second is the follow-up report of the earthquake in Chuanwen County, and the third is this epoch-making IMAX-3D Fengyue film.

There are many movies invested by Dream Chase Golden Harvest, such as "Search", "The Wind", "Adolescence 2", etc., which are being filmed, as well as "Ip Man", "To Our Dying Youth", etc., and "Let the Bullets Fly", "Beijing Falls in Love with Seattle", etc., which are waiting for the project, a bunch of investment plans.

In these plans, no matter how well they are promoted, no matter how generous they are, they can't get more attention than a "IMAX-3D Yupu Tuan". Lao Bai has already planned to try to release the film during May Day next year, so that mainland audiences can come to Hong Kong to watch the movie during the vacation.

In less than a year, there is still a lot of work to make an IMAX-3D movie. For this reason, the crew is also running at high speed, especially the technical team responsible for IMAX-3D filming, and it is common to work overtime. Shao Shuaijun even asked Hong Kong and the United States to fly on both sides to solve technical problems.

IMAX developed the IMAX-3D technology, but the specific operation. It's very complicated.

……

"Ah Jun, I want to add a close-up of the outer contour of the movement to this bed scene, do you think it is appropriate?" Lao Bai pointed to a bed scene playing on the monitor and said.

This section is the bed scene of Wei Yangsheng and Tie Yuxiang after marriage, and the picture in the monitor is two parts, corresponding to two IMAX digital cameras. The lens is stationary, so the human eye image is far away, and the two images can be filtered and overlapped by particles to create a 3D effect.

"You're saying it's going to revolve around Weiyangsheng and Tie Yuxiang. Take a spin? ”

"Yes. I think this kind of shot can better show the joy of marriage, and it can also show a more detailed shocking effect from the beginning. It's as if we're looking at one side and not satisfied. And then look around the whole thing. ”

Shao Shuaijun nodded. Call the props team and the camera crew: "Wait a minute, you guys make a track." From here, put the gimbal on the track, and then design the path to control the angle of the gimbal. Shoot this set of moving 3D effects. ”

The props team began to arrange the track, and Lao Bai shouted with a loudspeaker: "Lan Yan, Ye Shanhao, come here." ”

Although Ye Shanhao is Japanese, he has been in Hong Kong for many years and speaks fluent Chinese: "Producer, director." ”

Lan Yan shouted sweetly: "Producer, director." ”

Lao Bai has also experienced a blow, and now there is no salty and wet taste: "You two pose on the bed, and we will use the track to rotate the camera later, now arrange it, pay attention to the angle." ”

Both men are dressed in costumes, and the ancients dressed as the bride and groom. Ye Shanhao is okay, he looks decent, and Lan Yan is designed, with crisp breasts and half-naked, plus gorgeous makeup, which is very attractive. Fortunately, there is an air conditioner and a blower on the set, otherwise this makeup will be blurred by sweat for a while.

After listening to Lao Bai's words, the two posed on the spot. I had rehearsed these poses a few times earlier, so I don't have to be shy.

Lao Bai circled around the two of them to see if there would be any problems with their postures. This is a Fengyue art film, not a VA small movie, some can be exposed, and some can't.

"Wait a minute, you two pay attention to the angle, and cooperate a little better. Our camera will glide very slowly over the track, probably at the speed of my walking, when I turn to the left, the position must change, the eyes should not pay attention to the lens, but the face must be in the right position, understand? ”

"Got it."

Lao Bai then ran to Shao Shuaijun's side and asked with a smile: "Ah Jun, do you think this will work?" ”

"Lao Bai, you are the director, how to rehearse the scene, how to design the bridge and how to divide the shots, this is your profession and your power. We can discuss the script together, but you, as a director, can't be sure of the plot and rhythm of a play, what is the point of you as a director. I'm not going to tell you how to film, you just need to tell me what kind of technical conditions you need, understand? ”

Shao Shuaijun said to Lao Bai that the roles of director and producer are different, and since Shao Shuaijun does not plan to direct a movie, he will not go beyond the scope of producer. He has always believed that directors must have more power in order to spell out the most perfect movies according to the map in their minds.

Among the people he has led, many have become directors, such as Wang Yixue, Li Fangfang, Gao Zhisheng, and Jiang Zhigang. Among them, what he admires most is Gao Zhisheng and Li Fangfang, although Gao Zhisheng is a little obscene, he is very clever and willing to go camping. Li Fangfang should eat the director's dinner, whether it is smell or thought, he is a qualified director.

And Jiang Zhigang's talent is much weaker, and it's okay to shoot TV series.

The most pity is that Wang Yixue has talent, ability and ideas, but his temperament is too soft to control the scene. Otherwise, his achievements are not only TV drama directors, but film directors.

And Lao Bai is different, Shao Shuaijun has been mixed under Lao Bai in his previous life, and knows that Lao Bai has a bit of a wrist, of course, he is also a wild man. Therefore, it is a bit cramped to suddenly take over such a large crew, and it is enough to overcome it. After all, Lao Bai is in his forties, and the director industry has been crawling for many years, so he has his own set of guidelines for how to behave.

At the moment, Shao Shuaijun turned his head and studied the movement trajectory of IMAX-3D with the photographers, and Lao Bai began to talk to the two main actors in detail.

This scene is about the joy of newlyweds, Weiyang is short and lasts for a very short time, Tie Yuxiang is a virgin, and he doesn't know much about this matter. Therefore, in addition to the fact that the boudoir is quite unpleasant, the rest is also full of fun. After the movements, movements, and shots were explained, the track was laid.

Start the real shooting.

"Let's go!"

The IMAX camera had been denoise-reduced and shot still first. In bed, Ye Shanhao was impatient to have sex, and untied his clothes.

Then Lan Yan said shyly: "Slow, Xianggong, will it hurt very much?" ”

Ye Shanhao said in a somewhat anxious tone: "Although it hurts, it is very enjoyable." ”

Then, stabbing and moving a few times, then the food stopped.

Lan Yan tilted his head, a little strange and a little depressed: "Fortunately, it doesn't hurt at all, but it's not enjoyable." ”

Ye Shanhao's face was a little stiff, and he hurriedly smiled and said, "I must admit that there is still room for improvement." I think, with a little more practice, you can definitely have optimization. ”

"Cards!" Lao Bai shouted, "Did I let you finish it so quickly, didn't you see that the camera hasn't moved yet, it's okay to keep it in shape." ”

When Ye Shanhao heard this, he hurriedly apologized: "The director is sorry, I just came to me according to the pre-rehearsal, and I forgot that there is still a rotation of the track for shooting." ”

Lan Yan also rearranged her clothes, covered her exposed breasts, and surrounded her with a circle of staff, Rao was still a little embarrassed that she decided to let it go.

After reshooting, he did a full set of actions, but Lao Bai looked at the screen of the monitor and couldn't make up his mind: "Ah Jun, I always feel that there is something wrong, but I can't find it?" ”

Shao Shuaijun crossed Erlang's legs, replayed the closed-circuit footage, and then turned his head and asked the director of photography Hatton. Barry: "You're a photographer, what do you think is wrong with the picture?" ”

Hatton stretched out his head to look at it, and then said in English: "I don't think the expression is let go, I don't know if the Orientals are so reserved, but many angles are too hidden." We can not shoot private parts, but there are some places that are suitable for close-up depictions to make the lens a little more layered. For example, this blue girl can give her chest a big close-up, and then step back and follow the established track, isn't this smoother and more feeling? ”

His assistant Jim also chimed in: "I don't think the clothes cover up too much, just cover it a little with some tulle, it's fine, there's no need to wear so many clothes." ”

Shao Shuaijun shook his head: "What Hatton said makes sense, Jim, what you said is bad, this set of shots is superimposed." It's the first night in bed, and the transformation from strangers to husband and wife is a process that is necessary to cover up to make the plot coherent and smooth. We also have two scenes behind us, a table and a windowsill, where we can peel off our clothes layer by layer. Lao Bai, what do you think? ”

Lao Bai touched his chin: "Well, then let's have a close-up first!" (To be continued......)
