Chapter 156: Only Seriousness

The success of the music industry and the success of the TV drama market have relieved a lot of pressure on "Knives Out", this film has been questioned and criticized since the initial component crew, first of all, no one thinks that Yang Yichen has the ability to direct a movie independently, and secondly, the modern military theme itself does not have much market, and the large-scale use of new actors is a declaration that the production cost of this film is stretched, according to some people's understanding, it is completely smashed by Brother Media in order to meet Yang Yichen's personal wishes. Dream Fund', I never thought of wanting to take it back, take the money to play with him, as long as he is happy and doesn't care about losing money, as long as you stay and earn it back for me in other aspects.

Personal success covers up the current situation that the whole film is not favored, the actors are not affected much, they are all depressed actors or newcomers, saying that the dream is still a little far, saying that it is more prepared to have a livelihood on the way to chase the dream, the salary given by "Knives Out" is definitely high in their position, there are acting, there is work to do, there is money to make, and when there is filming, they earn more than ordinary wage earners, they do not lack tenacity for their dreams.

Yang Yichen has always felt that military uniforms are the most comfortable and handsome clothes in the world, especially the training uniforms of various special operations troops, he completely regarded himself as a soldier during the entire filming stage, and he may not need to fold the bedding in the guest house every day like a soldier, but as long as he is on the set, everyone needs to make themselves a soldier and maintain the state that a soldier should be, he doesn't want to be found in his film, and the front fight is very intense, The actor in the background behind him is perfunctory, and he doesn't look like a soldier no matter how he looks at it.

If the training footage can arouse a special worship of the majority of audiences for soldiers, then the confrontation with the wolves in the first stage has become the biggest flashpoint in front, for this reason, Yang Yichen spent a lot of money and invited a foreign computer special effects company to do special effects, and through guò propaganda officer Liu Zhen applied for a warrior who had really fought with the wolves, and he personally instructed several actors, including Yang Yichen, how to show the state of the real fight with the wolves, especially the wolves, The picture is by no means as handsome as imagined, and there will be no many gorgeous additional actions of action movies, and when he came, he bluntly said, do you really need him to show it? There won't be much so-called beauty.

Accustomed to seeing the gorgeous and colorful combat methods, a more direct and visually impactful picture will have a larger audience, the only thing that needs to be paid attention to is that the bloody Cheng dù must be able to pass the trial, with the support of the Southwest Military Region in this regard, this film has an inherent advantage, and you can get all kinds of hints during the filming process.

"Come on."

All the cast and crew involved gathered in a col and watched the flickering figures on the gravel floor, all of them dumbfounded.

There is no enemy, an imaginary enemy, but the other party's movements and eyes will make you feel that at this moment, there is a wolf opposite him, pounced on him, fighting for each other's lives.

Cheng Xiaodong is also on the side, as a well-known martial arts instructor, he was not very confident in this film, after entering the group and Yang Yichen again, through the run-in between the two sides and a period of shooting, he had to admire Yang Yichen's seriousness, and he also had to pay attention to the shooting of this film.

The training is so real that there is no water, the action camera is fist-to-flesh, Yang Yichen fully showed his kung fu skills to everyone, the video that was rumored by the outside world before was by no means hype, when facing the training of the sandbag, he really only wrapped a layer of bandages, in order to match the camera in others, the sweat on the body is a certain amount of water with a certain amount of training to create a feeling, to Yang Yichen is really trained, including the entire muscle state, under the backdrop of the military vest, Each piece seems so powerful, and it is by no means a muscular state made by ordinary artists with light and shadow and auxiliary equipment.

Yang Yichen's seriousness, personally going into battle every time he tried his best to perform, won Cheng Xiaodong's respect, and began to devote himself to this movie, and when the Chinese soldiers began to appear, Cheng Xiaodong also benefited a lot, and his eyes were reluctant to blink, the fighting skills of the Chinese soldiers made him see another world, the new direction of simplifying the gorgeous martial arts shots in the past, pursuing the real fighting effect, and letting the audience feel the realism of the fist to the flesh at close range, simple, more intuitive, and more effective.

Others felt that the warrior's way was not suitable for filming, and there was no sense of beauty, but after Yang Yichen and Cheng Xiaodong looked at each other, they received sympathy and confidence from each other's eyes.

There is no physical performance, testing the actor's skills, and the performance without physical object must also come up with a ruthlessness that makes people feel like fighting to the death, and there must be a strong sense of picture beauty, Yang Yichen and Cheng Xiaodong pulled the warrior, just for this only about a minute of footage, pondered repeatedly for three days, the warrior's fighting skills are fixed and not easy to change, Cheng Xiaodong can only reflect his thoughts in Yang Yichen, he can have the plain zhì of a warrior, and he can also take into account the beauty of the picture, know how to film, over and over again, three days, It is the director of Group B who takes everyone to shoot the scenes of cameo roles, some of them can be filmed at the end of Yanjing, and some of them need to appear in the southwest scene in the background, just when Song Dexian calculates everyone's schedule and time, it just so happens that they can concentrate on filming during this period of time, as for those popular actresses, as long as Yang Yichen summons, they will fly over from their respective crews to help.

The guest house where he lives is a military guest house, the environment is very good, almost everyone has seen the fatigue and bruises when Yang Yichen comes back every night in the past three days, and only after inquiring did he know that it turned out to be a scene of fighting with wolves in the play, as the main body of the picture, Yang Yichen will start filming only when he reaches the most perfect state, and after the shooting is completed, he will go to the special effects company with Cheng Xiaodong to supplement the special effects in the later stage, only they know what state of wolves and wolf kings those actions are facing.

On the third day, Li Chen, Gu Zhixin, Wang Lei and others who will appear with Yang Yichen in the picture have taken the initiative to give up the rare opportunity to rest, and they have trained with him in the mountain pass, they are completely infected by his serious and dedicated attitude, as the absolute core protagonist of this play, he accounts for most of the 120-minute scenes, and there are many more exciting scenes, such as the tank barrel to the face, the helicopter hangs and flies, this is only less than a minute of footage, or in the dark night, It still needs to be synthesized by computer in the later stage, and they all know that most of the audience's attention will be on the realistic wolves made by computer special effects, but even so, Yang Yichen still repeatedly designs every action to achieve the best effect, how can it not infect them.

It is also from this incident that the attitude of all the cast and crew towards this film has changed a lot, and then Yang Yichen returned to Yanjing and gave up the opportunity to become internationally famous and came back to shoot with a heart, which made them feel that people's success is not luck, but really accumulated by sweat, why do they say that the film in which Yang Yichen participated in the picture quality is exquisite and the story is compact, not only the credit of the crew and director, but also the efforts of the actors are inseparable from these successes.

"Is there a problem, you can change the stand-in after takeoff."

Cheng Xiaodong looked at the latest domestic main battle helicopter parked aside, and then looked at Yang Yichen who was dressed in a training uniform, he didn't know the bottom of his heart, after all, such a shot in Xiangjiang Cheng Long dared to play in person, and others would choose a stand-in, or simply rely on cutting to deal with it.

"Come on."

Yang Yichen gave a thumbs up, not only for everyone, but also for himself, to be dragged by a helicopter at an altitude of more than 100 meters to fly, the difficulty of shooting is not difficult in front of Yang Yichen himself, and all the problems are not a problem.

"Rest assured, we have checked many times in terms of safety, and there will be no problems." Ma Hongtao, the company commander of the guard company, was also present in person, to be honest, even the special forces did not do this, he understood that the other party chose to highlight the visual stimulation of the audience, but the danger does exist, rope safety measures are no problem, the helicopter needs a certain flight speed to shoot to have an effect, people are strangled in such an environment, whether they can withstand this is the key.

The pictures in Yang Yichen's script are more exciting and intuitive than those in the later "Wolf Warrior", and he has to show more than Wu Jing.

Yiqiē, focusing on reality and a strong sense of sensory stimulation as the core, should make the audience so nervous that they dare not blink their eyes, for fear that they will blink and miss a very wonderful picture.

The armed helicopter took off, all the preparations were ready, Cheng Xiaodong and the assistant director both sweated, which means that the military region has the support of the army, so many large-scale equipment can be used, and it is not that there is no money to play like this, but I am afraid that the accumulation of the secondary cost of one shot will be too much, and the cost of the N machine several times, the cost is geometrically turned up, and it is also a kind of torture for the actors.

"Prepare, fight for it, start ......"
