Chapter Ninety-Nine: An In-depth Performance of Martial Arts
The establishment of the embroidered spring knife made Shao Yingying meet his acquaintances Wu Zhenyu and Xu Qing again, but at this moment, Shao Yingying has changed his identity, and the two of them obviously don't know whether they should get close as before.
Fortunately, Shao Yingying didn't throw away the word 'slippery', and after a few people met, they opened their mouths when the embarrassing atmosphere was about to form: "Na, I still have time for you two to tie up now, maybe I can add a red envelope after the salary after this movie is finished......" This sentence will definitely be annoying if it is said very seriously, but if the hippie smile can be seen at a glance as a joke, it will seem much closer.
Wu Zhenyu was amused by Shao Yingying, and said jokingly: "Tie you? Then I'm a pig! If you don't do such an easy, lucrative job as an actor and run to be a boss, you deserve to be tired, and you should keep your piece of gossip for healing when you are tired. ”
Xu Qing was amused by the mutual damage of these two people, the dimples on his face were particularly obvious when he laughed, and the whole person appeared a little femininity very discordantly under the dignified style.
Fairy-level women are always attractive, and when Wu Zhenyu saw this scene, he teased Xu Qing and said in Chinese that was not standard at all: "Laugh again." ”
Xu Qing put away his smile when he heard this, pouted and naturally got closer to Wu Zhenyu and said, "No." ”
Wu Zhenyu chased after him: "I'll give two pieces, which is more than Shao Yingying's pieces." ”
Shao Yingying smiled helplessly, shrugged his shoulders and greeted: "It's met again, this time we have a rivalry." ”
"I'm not looking forward to it at all, anyway." Xu Qing playfully said this to Shao Yingying with a smile. Then Wu Zhenyu leaned over and said, "Go away, people won't call you." ”
After a joke, several actors are obviously a lot closer. However, they are more like a small group, and the other small group is on Liang Jiahui's side, and basically all the actors from Xiangjiang get together with Liang Jiahui to talk and laugh, including director Wei Jiahui and martial arts director Yuan Heping.
As a result, there was a very interesting gathering of gossip schema personnel in the crew of "Embroidered Spring Knife", and the crew gathered around several people led by Shao Yingying, Wen Zhang, Xu Qing, and Wang Zhongjun, and they talked about them; Xiangjiang artists gathered with Yuan Heping's Yuan Jiaban and others. Beside these two groups of people, the two eyeballs in the yin and yang fish are Wei Jiahui and Wu Zhenyu, and the whole movie started the real shooting in this state, and Shao Yingying was in the process of this shooting. I really know how hard it is to shoot action scenes!
"Click!!
Yuan Heping is very dissatisfied with Shao Yingying, who has never been in contact with action scenes, because in "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", Shao Yingying does not need to shoot much, but more to show momentum. even separates acting and filming action scenes most of the time. Shao Yingying can be very dedicated to filming actions, and the rest of the time is to act, which gives Shao Yingying a very bad problem, that is, he is good at filming and can grit his teeth and insist on shooting action scenes, but once the action scenes and scenes are combined, Shao Yingxing's continuity is not enough.
The crew's start-up ceremony started at noon, and the whole crew was revising the scene in the afternoon, and Wei Jiahui had very high requirements for the scene. Even when filming normally, it was already night. The first scene of the night was the scene at the beginning of "Embroidered Spring Knife", where two soldiers patrolling the city held lanterns and found the Jinyi guards hiding in the alley. Then he turned around and ran away. There was no problem with Shao Yingying's filming in this scene, when he led the Jinyi guard behind him to appear under the falling and ignited firelight, it had the taste of killing gods at night.
But in the second scene, everything changed.
The second scene is about Shao Yingying sending the daughter of the Chen Mansion to the study as a hostage, and at this moment the Chen father and son, who they want to arrest, suddenly resist, and it is this action scene that makes Yuan Heping dissatisfied with Shao Yingying.
"a ghost? Boss, when the vase is thrown over, your eyes should look at the person opposite, and then smash the vase with your fist, this is the master, you look at the vase and do it? "Yuan Heping, the martial arts instructor, has the same power as the director when the action scene is filmed, not only can he shout 'Ka', but he will even come over and stand in front of Shao Yingying to talk about the play.
After listening to these words, he realized that his understanding of action movies was like his understanding of TV series when he was a fledgling, and it was simply less than half a bottle.
Shen Lian is a master in the movie, a master has to look like a master, you have to show the momentum of a master under the camera, someone throws a vase and you have to stare at it to break it with your fists, what is it called? At least the masters in the movie are not like this, and the audience is not happy to watch such shots. You have to look at the lost vase and stare at your target and then smash it to show what you're capable of.
After digesting Yuan Heping's words, Shao Yingying understood why Wei Jiahui wanted to find Yuan Heping, who was very expensive in the Xiangjiang circle, people have real things in their hands, and these real things have been accumulated in decades of training on the set, can they be sold cheaply?
"Do it all over again!"
There was a vacant seat in the room, and opposite Shao Yingying stood Yuan Heping, who was only wearing sportswear, at this moment he took the prop vase and said: "Na, I will throw the vase to the position where you can break the vase after you raise your fist and hit it, during this period, your gaze can't take off my eyes, and your expression can't change in any way, otherwise you, the big boss of Huayi, will have to get a few more props and vases, this is our last prop." ”
Shao Yingying's figure appeared in the monitor in front of Wei Jiahui, but in Wei Jiahui's line of sight, Shao Yingying, who was wearing a flying fish suit, was opposite Yuan Heping in sportswear, and other than that, there was no one in the room, and they were all waiting outside. Because when shooting this shot, the camera can only accommodate Shao Yingxing's body alone, don't look at this is a two-camera shooting on one side and one side, but there will definitely be no possibility of goofs under the rapid connection of the lens.
"Ready!" During his days in the mainland, Wei Jiahui learned the rules here, and at this time he did not shout in English, but shouted directly in a broken pronunciation: "Start!" ”
Swish!
Yuan Heping was not polite at all, and immediately threw out the prop vase when he heard the two words at the beginning.
Some people are born to be famous under the camera, for example, Cheng Long failed to win the scene of jumping from the bell tower in "Plan A" for several days, and even Wrinkled Huai said when he went to visit the set, 'Don't fight so hard, it's a big deal to change the script', but Sammo Hung picked up the walkie-talkie on the set and shouted 'action' regardless of Jackie Chan after he went up, Cheng Long jumped down directly, like an athlete hearing the starting pistol.
The same is true for Shao Yingying at this moment, he watched the vase fly in his afterglow, but after this 'start', he kept his head rigid and didn't let himself turn his head, the fist of his right hand popped out at the same time, and a pair of eyes were still staring at Yuan Heping, without blinking.
When the very small sound of 'bump' came out, the vase was shattered in accordance with Shao Yingying's fist, but the prop vase did not make the crisp sound of the porcelain vase cracking, but only scattered all over the ground.
"It's very simple, it's been going on for so long." Yuan Heping knew that this shot was completed without waiting for Wei Jiahui to shout 'OK' when Shao Yingying finished filming this action, but the difficulty Shao Yingying felt was completely different from this person who had been doing martial arts on the set all his life.
This is a normal person fighting against his habits, an object as big as a vase flies in front of his eyes, not only can't blink, but also has to look at the front of him coldly, this is already a problem, and at the same time he has to punch and break the vase!
Shao Yingying is just a second knife who has taken martial arts routine courses for a few days, and filming such a scene is fighting against his own physiological habits.
“OK!” Wei Jiahui shouted at this moment: "Prepare the next set of shots." ”
Yuan Heping walked up to Liang Jiahui and jokingly said, "What do you think of Huayi's big boss?" ”
Liang Jiahui didn't give Shao Yingying any face at all and said: "The literary drama is good, but the martial arts drama is very bad." ”
Hearing this, Shao Yingying walked over directly regardless of it, and said to Yuan Heping: "Yuan guide." ”
"What's the matter?" Yuan Heping glanced back, and even Liang Jiahui thought that Shao Yingying heard what he had just said and came over to quarrel, and was about to get up but heard Shao Yingying say without any temper: "Can you lend me a martial arts instructor, I want to practice, with my skills in action movies, I am afraid that it will delay our filming progress, big stars like Brother Hui sign contracts on a daily basis, and if the crew is delayed for a day, the crew will have to lose a sum of money and delay for a day." ”
Yuan Heping and Liang Jiahui looked at each other, no one would have thought that Shao Yingying would be able to say such things now as the boss of Huayi, the kind of admiration for professionalism from the bottom of his heart, even if he didn't show it on his face, he also changed his opinion of the 'rumored disrespect of mainland actors'.
"It's very bitter, can you stand it? If you want me to say that it's still like now, I'll guide you a few times before filming, and you have to shoot the camera well. Yuan Heping asked tentatively.
"Stand it." Shao Yingying replied very seriously: "I am also an actor who has survived from the bottom, not so delicate." Here, I will do my duty as an actor with all my heart, and I can't let the whole movie be flawed because of me. ”
"Faith." Yuan Heping turned his head to Yuan Xinyi of the Yuan family class and said, "Help the boss improve his martial arts skills." ”
Yuan Xinyi has played the role of a villain in many works of Xiangjiang, and he is also a senior martial artist of Yuan's class.
"Director Yuan, please teach me how to act according to the routine designed by Yuan He Pingwu in the next scene, so that I can combine movements and facial expressions in this scene, especially the scene where Chen Jiaming, the son of the Chen family, is not allowed to draw his sword."
The next scene to be filmed is the fight scene between Shen Lian and Chen Jiaming in the Chen Mansion, that is, after throwing out the vase, there is a key point in this scene that Shao Yingying must use his own tricks to make Chen Jiaming unable to pull the sword out of the scabbard, in order to show his status as a master in the film.
