The drama "The Grandmaster" has always had a place that has been criticized by everyone, and this place is Ma San. Zhang Jin's Ma San is too performative, and every time he grits his teeth, he is full of Xiangjiang style, this form of performance not only does not match the overall style, but even in terms of acting skills, people can see at a glance that he is the worst one in the movie. But such a person, after being in this play, won the best supporting actor, which is really unthinkable.

When Shao Yingying, who was decided by Wang Jiawei to play Ma San, was thinking about how to act in this play, his initial idea was likely that Wang Jiawei asked Zhang Jin to deliberately perform a kind of overexertion, so that not only could the villain be highlighted under everyone's restrained performance, but also proved that the bad guys would always engrave these two words on their faces in the movie. But when Wang Jiawei broke up with Shao Yingying, he dragged Shao Yingying's thoughts back with one sentence, and he said very simply: "You know my style, right?" ”

This sentence is too profound, Wang Jiawei's movies have never appeared in a role like Ma San, which is why Wang Jiawei only uses big names, he can make the good better, but he can't let a person who can't learn it.

With this sentence, Shao Yingying was relieved, he still had to learn Xingyi Boxing, and he had to practice and practice the whole set of moves in the remaining time.

Xu Haofeng, the original screenwriter of the movie "The Grandmaster", is himself a person who practices martial arts, in the real history, after the release of "The Grandmaster", someone interviewed Xu Haofeng and asked him who played the best in the whole movie, the answer in the reporter's heart was Zhang Zhen, after all, Zhang Zhen won a martial arts award when this play was released, which is also one of the publicity gimmicks, but in fact, the answer Xu Haofeng gave was Liang Chaowei.

In the scene of the rainy night battle, Liang Chaowei was a professional player. In the long shots of more than a dozen consecutive overhead shots, Leung Chao Wai's smooth response and unique eyes can show how much effort he has put into Wing Chun for this play.

The interesting part is that Ip Man's apprentice Liang Shaohong will spray water on the opponent's eyes with a water gun when he helps Liang Chaowei exercise a martial artist's temperament, which is to make Liang Chaowei adapt to the eyes of a martial arts person in a rainy night battle. Even if the raindrops fall on the eyes, you can't wipe them with your hands, your eyes still have to be in the play, and you have to contain the cold light of the warrior in the restraint of the performance.

Of course, the reason why the whole play was hyped up in the joke tone of fans that a 'any picture' can be used as a 'computer desktop', in addition to the beautiful moves of the actors, the main reason is that when Shao Yingying, Liang Chaowei, Zhang Zhen, and Zhang Ziyi were collectively sent to martial artists to practice kung fu, Wang Jiawei went abroad alone with a sum of money. He's going to look for equipment.

The camera that shot "The Grandmaster" was not an ordinary camera, but a high-speed camera recovered from Hollywood, compared to the 24 frames per second of ordinary cameras. High-speed cameras can achieve up to 1000 frames per second, depending on the model, or even 2 billion frames per second. The things that are captured by this camera are still commonly used in sports competitions and film special effects, and the most common is 'ballistics'. (If you are interested, search the Internet for the footage taken by the high-speed camera.) There should be. ）

This is also the reason why Ning Caishen took an ordinary camera to shoot "Dragon Gate Boomerang", and he never imitated the original picture. What's funny is that when some people watched "Dragon Gate Dart Game", they thought that Ning Caishen was trying to hack "The Grandmaster".

With a good machine, a good handheld, and a good team, this is the very beautiful picture in "The Grandmaster".

Here we must mention the photographers of "The Grandmaster" at that time, Song Xiaofei and Philip Taylor, one of them won the Golden Horse Award for "Bullfighting", and the other was the photographer of "Seven Pounds", and they have nothing to say about their strength.

When Wang Jiawei sent Shao Yingying and them all to the hands of the grandmaster to practice tricks, in addition to going abroad to find a machine, he also had to find a photographer, because these two things made him feel uneasy when anyone came to do it. It's just that. Shao Yingying didn't expect Wang Jiawei to find that it was not Philip Taylor, but an expensive photographer!

This person. is called John Tolle, and his resume reads "Passionate Years" and "Braveheart", you must know that these two films are the 67th and 68th films that have won the Oscar for Best Cinematography twice in a row!

When Wang Jiawei excitedly sent the news back across the ocean, Shao Yingying asked through the phone: "How much did it cost?" ”

Wang Jiawei only responded: "Don't always care about money." ”

Shao Yingying knew when he heard this, it must not be cheap!

He has not only heard of John Thor's name, it is said that the most popular photographer in Hollywood has to be a big production, and the drama "The Grandmaster" is trivial in the eyes of others in terms of investment and casting, can Wang Jiawei say that such a big-name photographer joins, in addition to the money, can there be any other way?

Later, when the group was established, Shao Yingying heard the actual price, John Tolle really didn't come for money, first of all, Wang Jiawei used his own connections, and when he went to find John Tolle, he took John Tolle's two old friends to persuade him, and then he used the mysterious Oriental world as a guise, and only then did he say that John Tolle came to China to make a film and travel by the way. Wang Jiawei's trip to Hollywood is still in the process of looking for opportunities and photographers, and directly killed 20 million of the investment amount!

This is tantamount to spending about the same amount of Huayi's reserve funds, even if the set construction of "The Grandmaster" is saved to death, the actors' salaries, films, and crew labor of the entire film add up to 75 million, which is just stiff and barely enough, otherwise Shao Yingying came up and gave 25 million reserve funds?

Let's build it.

Shao Yingying sighed and continued to practice Xingyi Boxing, and the whole person experienced hellish training under the master's training. When he first started, he thought that going to the 'martial arts class' was as easy as going to, at most he was sweating, but when he got to others, what big stars were all showy in the eyes of others, several senior brothers came over at the signal of the master to teach the leg press first, and when you pressed the two legs out of the gap, the brothers and sisters collectively started and pressed down hard along the shoulder.

Click.

Shao Yingying swore that he heard the sound of bones, and the last time he heard such a sound was when he was at the Beijing Film Academy, and that was in a physical class.

The moment this voice came out, Shao Yingying split the fork, this split was six or seven years after his last split, which directly led Shao Yingxing to roll on the ground from the state of splitting the thigh with his thigh, it really hurt!

Sweating in pain!!

There has never been such a situation in action movies before, even if it is with Yuan Heping, people only emphasize the connection between action and camera, which is a real practice.

He watched the documentary before the release of "The Grandmaster", in the documentary, Zhang Ziyi and Zhang Zhen both had the picture of 'whooping' screaming when they split their legs, at least in the documentary, the group of brothers and sisters are gentle enough, which is like this group of people, and directly sent Shao Yingying to the hospital.

There are many actors who can make action movies in China, but making action movies is not practicing martial arts, how can there be such a forcible split? Shao Yingying fell a ligament and suffered a slight strain instead of pulling the ligament, which is already a blessing.

Shao Yingying, who was still a little lame in the hospital for a week, knew that his injury was not serious and immediately went back to continue training, and he couldn't use great strength to learn basic movements.

It was only a month since the injury and practice, but after this period of time, Shao Yingying found that his temperament in the mirror had changed!

A man who has practiced martial arts is the same as a man who has practiced dance, and the temperament on his body that can be discerned at a glance is particularly obvious, and the reason why Zhang Zhen looks a little different from other stars is this, which is also the reason why Zhang Zhen's eyes in the original film of "Embroidered Spring Knife" can always show a ruthlessness.

Zhao Benshan made a phone call during Shao Yingying's suffering years, the content was that the scene he was looking for had been found, and when the crew went to film, just say hello.

Shao Yingying is naturally grateful.

"What are you doing now?" Zhao Benshan didn't want to hang up so quickly, otherwise he would have asked casually because he wouldn't be very polite.

This time Shao Yingying's words box was opened: "Prepare for filming." ”

"Filming is filming, are you still preparing? You're not an amateur either, what are you doing here? ”

"Isn't this what Wang Jiawei asked, not only me, Liang Chaowei and Zhang Ziyi all have to practice, I didn't practice well two days ago and strained the ligament of my big crotch, and now it still hurts." Shao Yingying feels that his life is miserable, this is not the battle against Hollywood blockbusters has become like this, and in the future, he really has to do a life-and-death duel with those Hollywood blockbusters who are ready to land on the beach, and he may not know how to suffer.

Zhao Benshan responded with a snicker: "Wang Jiawei...... Hahahaha...... Xiao Shao, can you stand making a movie with a big ink mirror? I've heard that he makes movies over and over again, and sometimes one shot can last a whole night. ”

Hi.

Shao Yingying didn't speak, just sighed.

"If you want me to say, don't block this breath with the picture of your heart, Lao Mouzi is not a fierce person, but Zhang Weiping ...... Or I'll tell you and make peace, I'm quite familiar with both of them. "Zhao Benshan is warm-hearted, and he has done a lot of peacemaker work in his life.

"No, even if someone says now that the battle with this one can't stop." Shao Yingying is telling the truth, both companies are pointing to this topic to speculate at the box office, even if there is really enough weight of the peacemaker, the two companies may be able to resolve the conflict, but the topic cannot be stopped, once the topic is terminated, what is lost is interests.

"Okay then."

Zhao Benshan hung up, he understands this truth.

As soon as the phone hung up, Wang Zhonglei's number began to flash, Shao Yingying didn't wait for the music to come out, he picked up the phone, and in the microphone, Wang Zhonglei's voice said: "How are you doing this time?" It's pretty, right? ”

Okay, Wang Zhonglei came to invite credit, and he revealed this kind of 'I'm not a waste' defense in and out of his words. (To be continued......)
