"Yongsheng vs. Demon Shadow, the good show is just around the corner!"
"Yongsheng started filming "Wesley", and the fierce battle "God of Gamblers"!"
"The new company war in the film industry is about to break out, who can have the last laugh!"
……
"Chen Xiaotang was slapped in the face by Fa Ge, and the original 'God of Gamblers' turned into 'Wesley'!"
"Weird! Uncanny! It's weird! Good friends turn their faces and turn against each other! ”
"It's ridiculous that Chen Xiaotang is unladylike, Fa Ge has turned into an opponent, and the God of Gambling is about to fight Wesley!"
……
Regardless of public opinion, on May 20, 1984, Magic Shadow Entertainment's first movie "God of Gamblers" officially started filming today.
As the actor Chen Xiaotang can be said to wear many hats, very busy, as the boss of Magic Shadow Entertainment, he has to plan the development direction of the company, as a famous actor, he must go all out to do his job as an actor, as a popular singer in the music world, his second record is still in post-production, and it is expected to be completed in mid-June, in addition, the script of the contract he signed with wireless is also in the pipeline, if possible, in the second half of this year, he will return to the small screen and play the highlight of wireless. It's a lot of anticipation, so to speak.
Of course, as one of the most popular superstars in the entire Hong Kong entertainment industry, Chen Xiaotang sacrificed a lot in order to shoot his company's "God of Gamblers", not only turned down a lot of advertisements, catwalks, commercial performances, but also turned down many movie contracts. He and the fat man Wang Jing have a consensus, they are not afraid of hard work now. The main reason is that it hasn't reached that time yet, and by this time next year, Magic Shadow Entertainment will be able to really stand firm, and everyone will be much easier at that time.
Chen Xiaotang is confident. The entire Shadow Entertainment people also believe in him, and today, it is the beginning of the first step of the Shadow Entertainment, Chen Xiaotang wants to prove to everyone through the play "God of Gamblers" that he is the radiant guy, he is unique, and his value cannot be measured.
In order to shoot the scene of the Las Vegas casino. The first scene was filmed in a private club in Hong Kong.
First of all, it was set up to look like a big Las Vegas casino, and then some ghost actors played tricks as gamblers in the casino. It makes the whole scene look like it was filmed abroad.
This scene is actually just one shot, that is, the gambling god Gao Jin sits at the casino table and bets, and a lot of ghosts around him are looking at him. He chewed on the chocolate as he played with the jade ring on his finger.
After winning the bet, Yang Chang stood up, and amid the applause of the crowd, one of the ghost guys asked the people around him, "Who is he?" ”
The casino manager said solemnly: "God of gambling! ”
At this moment, Gao Jin turned his head and looked back. Domineering exposed.
It can be said that these few very simple scenes are also the opening credits of the beginning of this play, but it is not easy to play them well, that is the back of a king. Sitting, bearing, and so on are all very important. At the same time, the sharpness and wisdom when he turned around was also meaningful.
But. Chen Xiaotang acted in this during the audition, just waiting for the makeup to be done, the first scene and the first scene of the first scene sounded the first sound, and the director Wang Jing took an action, he did it in the first pass, and the fat man Wang Jingjing couldn't help but praise, "Ah Tang, the shooting is good, especially when you look back and smile, that bone domineering is simply coming!" ”
The second scene is the real beginning of the movie, which is a scene of the gambling god Gao Jin fighting the gambling master in Tokyo.
Similar to the previous scene, in order to reduce expenses, there was no need to actually go to Japan to shoot these two shots, so I edited some travel footage in Tokyo, Japan, and then filmed the preparations for Gao Jin's gambling fight in a Japanese tea house in Hong Kong.
Japanese tea room, clogs, tatami mats, ukiyo-e.
In the face of the upcoming decisive battle of the wife recorded by Zhou Huimin, Gao Jin, played by Chen Xiaotang, slowly sipped the famous Japanese tea, looking like a smile but not a smile, and looked at the wife who recorded his itinerary with love in his eyes.
Zhou Huimin, who was wearing a white striped skirt, was still very beautiful, fresh and beautiful, and even a little thrilling, looking at Chen Xiaotang's eyes, she showed just the right amount of shyness and happiness.
When the wife played by Zhou Huimin finished the recording, the door of the room was opened, and Wu Zhenyu, who played the villain, said to him respectfully: "Brother Jin, the outside is ready." ”
Then the camera turned and gave Gao Jin a close-up. I saw him gently put down the teacup, and then his chin was slightly raised, and the expression on his face was like a tiger about to come out of the cage, especially when the camera made a close-up of his eyes, you will find that his eyes full of love instantly became sharp and piercing!
It can be said that in this scene, Chen Xiaotang does not have a single line, the transformation of facial expressions is very rich, and the body language also changes, it is really a very delicate and wonderful beginning, and Chen Xiaotang got it the second time after entering the state, which made the fat man praise fiercely, this scene is very difficult.
After the filming here, I began to shoot the scene where the God of Gamblers appeared and fought with the Japanese gambling king. At this time, the music sounded, but it was the very imposing background music from the previous life.
This background music is taken from the front part of the British song "Blue Blood Forever", but now it has been created by Chen Xiaotang in advance, which can be regarded as the sadness of the United Kingdom.
At this moment, in the camera, accompanied by the sound of background music, Gao Jin, the gambling god played by Chen Xiaotang, appeared in the crowd.
I have to say that Chen Xiaotang seems to be born with the kind of king momentum like the stars holding the moon, and this appearance shocked the audience, especially with the stirring music, his gesture and gesture all showed a kingly demeanor.
The only problem is that Chen Xiaotang has interpreted this kind of kingly spirit too much, which makes those around him feel stunned. When the fat man Wang Jing saw this scene, he couldn't help but shake his head and smiled: "Ah Tang, please restrain your momentum a little, don't frighten the little brother next to you!" ”
Having said that, the scene between Gao Jin and the Japanese gambling king was filmed more realistically. The fat man Wang Jing deliberately hired a "technical consultant" of a Macau casino with a high salary, to put it bluntly, to teach Chen Xiaotang to learn "gambling skills". Don't underestimate the work of filming. There are a lot of things that actors have to learn anytime and anywhere. For example, this time, Chen Xiaotang followed the technical consultant of the Macau casino and learned to shake the dice and cut mahjong. Flip cards and other tricks.
If you don't learn, you don't know, and you'll be shocked when you learn.
It turned out that what the old man said was true, and he cheated nine times out of ten.
Especially things like shaking dice, which are very skillful.
When the casino consultant shook out any points he wanted again and again, Chen Xiaotang was already impressed.
"Actually, you can do it too." "As long as you control your wrist strength and your keen hearing, you'll be able to shake any number of points you want." ”
Chen Xiaotang was a little incredulous.
According to the technical consultant. He tried to control the force of his wrist while keeping his focus on his ears...... It's a pity that only two or three times out of ten guesses are right, and there is a lot of luck.
Chen Xiaotang's old face was slightly red, he didn't expect him to be so "stupid". But the technical consultant smiled and said, "It's okay, a novice like you, if you want to control the dice as you want, it's impossible to control the dice as you like!" ”
Chen Xiaotang was relieved, and then asked, "Then how long have you been studying?" ”
The technical advisor said with some pride: "I have loved gambling since I was a child. It can be said that the talent is already very good, and in order to learn to control the dice, I have also practiced hard for more than a year. As for those so-called gambling geniuses, as far as I know. The least of them have also practiced for no less than three months! ”
"Three months?" Chen Xiaotang was surprised, "I didn't expect this technique to be so troublesome." ”
"Huh. Therefore, if you really practice all at once, you can practice it all at once. Then those of us who come out and mingle won't have anything to eat! ”
Chen Xiaotang nodded and began to continue practicing. The technical advisor went to the side for tea.
Chen Xiaotang was practicing, and at the same time, wondering, isn't it just to control the dice in the earpiece, why is it so difficult? Anyway, it's a bit boring to practice hard like this, and it's not too important to Chen Xiaotang whether he can practice or not, he just plays the "God of Gamblers", and he doesn't want to be a real God of Gambling, so there's no need to be so serious, so Chen Xiaotang yawned while shaking the earpiece indiscriminately, how handsome, how to come. Shaking and shaking, Chen Xiaotang tried to penetrate the inner strength of his cultivation of Xingyi Quan to see what would happen.
Then, a miracle happened!
It was as if he could see everything in the barrel with his own eyes, and the dice were regularly foul jumping under his control.
Wouldn't it, so evil?!
Chen Xiaotang was surprised.
Then, according to his own mind, he restrained those dice with his internal strength, put out a stack of arhats, opened the tube, and looked, a miracle appeared!
It's really a stacked arhat!!
At that moment, Chen Xiaotang was shocked by his stunt.
It turns out that the internal strength of my own cultivation can still be used for this!
No wonder those legendary gambling masters are kung fu masters!
In order to prove his guess, Chen Xiaotang tried to control the dice again, "Three fours!" "Three-three!" "Five ones!" "Here, turn your head!" "Jump a rumba!" ……
The dice roll and jump, basically as if they were controlled by his fingers, what do you want, what do you want!
Just when Chen Xiaotang was intoxicated with his extraordinary gambling skills, he snapped, and saw that the technical consultant who had just said that he couldn't get it for two or three years if he wanted to practice this kind of technique well, looked at Chen Xiaotang with wide eyes, and the teacup in his hand had already been broken in surprise.
"You, you, how did you do that?"
Chen Xiaotang woke up from intoxication, looked at someone with his mouth open like a toad, and said in his heart, secret! It's a secret! Absolute secrecy! If it is known that it will do this, I am afraid that there will be no peace.
So Chen Xiaotang said very innocently: "I was playing with it just now, maybe it's luck!" ”
"Luck?" The technical advisor looked at Chen Xiaotang suspiciously.
Chen Xiaotang scratched his head, and he didn't have the slightest "unfathomable" demeanor that a gambling master should have.
Looking at the dice on the table, and then at Chen Xiaotang, the technical consultant was also a little skeptical of his judgment.
Maybe I guessed wrong, how can a layman like him master real gambling skills? The technical advisor rubbed his head and muttered.
……
In this way, under the careful "cultivation" of this technical consultant, Chen Xiaotang filmed the gambling scene between the gambling god Gao Jin and the Japanese gambling king wonderfully. Especially the way he shakes the dice, in the words of the fat man Wang Jing, it is called "so handsome that he drops the scum!" ”
Next, the filming went more smoothly, the God of Gamblers was attacked in the subway, and the retired soldier Long Wu played by the crow had a big fight with the kidnappers. According to Chen Xiaotang's original promise, he intended to promote the crow to the position, and this time the role of "Dragon Five" was tailor-made for him, showing his male masculine charm in addition to being ruthless. The crow also lived up to expectations, and couldn't help but devote himself to it when shooting, and raised a lot of questions in terms of action design, so the shot was much more exciting than the "God of Gamblers" in the previous life, and the crow's role was invisibly increased a lot, becoming a classic on the screen in the future, which was unexpected.
After the subway war, the God of Gamblers fell off the beach and became amnesiac, and when he met the knife boy played by Lau Dehua, he made a lot of jokes. The stupid gambling god and the knife boy fooled Dasha Cheng Kuian played by Dakou Jiu together. Because the knife boy offended the villain "Wu Mengda", a loan shark, he was chased and killed all over the street. In order to save the knife, the stupid gambling god ate chocolate and gambled against Wu Mengda, and the scene of Gao Jin playing folding knives in this section can be said to be the peak. In particular, Chen Xiaotang controlled the changes in the eyes of the character Gao Jin very well, before he didn't eat chocolate, his eyes were stupid, and when he finished eating chocolate, he immediately transformed, his eyes were extremely sharp, and then his wrist was flipped, and the knives flew up and down, which was amazing......
According to the development of the plot, Wu Zhenyu, who plays the villain, as Gao Jin's cousin, in order to snatch Gao Jin's property, he actually raped Gao Jin's wife like a beast~ and then joined forces with the Singapore gambling king to hunt down and kill the gambling god Gao Jin, and Long Wu played by the crow came to the rescue......
It's a long story, but the fat man Wang Jing is worthy of being a famous fast gunner in the entire Hong Kong film industry, and in just seven days, he has filmed the final stage of this drama, that is, the scene of the gambling boat war.
However, this scene really needs to borrow a gambling boat for filming, but where to find a decent gambling boat? Chen Xiaotang and the fat man Wang Jing were depressed.
At this moment, Chen Xiaotang received a phone call, but it was Hong Kong watch tycoon Pan Disheng calling, it turned out that he invited Chen Xiaotang to be the spokesperson of his watch brand The contract has been prepared, and now Chen Xiaotang is officially invited to sign a contract on a gambling boat he operates.
This is called "If you want to sleep, someone will give you a pillow"? That's it!
briefly negotiated with Pan Disheng, and the other party said very arrogantly, a big star like you filming on my gambling boat can be regarded as helping me do free publicity, I am too late to be happy, how can I refuse.
But in any case, Chen Xiaotang also knows that he still owes others a favor after all, (to be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
