Chapter 287: Days in Hengdian (2)
Filming Hollywood scenes, Zhang Chengyuan sometimes feels quite comfortable, because the crew will never let the actors work overtime to catch up with the scene, what time to start filming and what time to end filming, all of which are planned in advance, and will work quite strictly according to the plan. There is even a day off every week, according to Liu Yifei's words, "It feels like filming is like going to work." ”
In Asian countries, overtime filming is commonplace. Based on Jang Sung-won's personal experience, it is better to make Korean movies, but filming Korean dramas is very busy, often having to stay up all night for several days to catch up with the scene, and many actors are tired and sick. In the crew of "The King of Kung Fu", this kind of thing will not happen, even if the actors voluntarily want to rush to shoot the scene, the director and others will not allow it.
On this day, although Li Binbin was accidentally injured and delayed a little time, the crew still finished work on time, Zhang Chengyuan followed the crew back to the hotel that night, and after dinner, Li Lianjie came to the door and asked Zhang Chengyuan to practice with him, and tomorrow he will officially shoot the scene of the battle between Sun Wukong and the Yujiang God of War, he is afraid that the two have not practiced together for a long time, and there will be a lack of tacit understanding, and if too much time is wasted during filming tomorrow, it will be bad.
This is also in Zhang Chengyuan's arms, he can't wait to shoot as fast as possible! In this way, he can also rush back earlier to continue filming "Coffee Prince No. 1 Shop". Of course, the premise is that the quality of the shooting is not compromised.
The two found a remote and quiet place in the courtyard of the hotel, and then began to practice against each other. There were several Li Lianjie's bodyguards and assistants standing around the two of them to prevent others from passing by accidentally and coming to disturb Li Lianjie after seeing them.
This sparring practice lasted nearly two hours, and it took more than half an hour to stop and rest in the middle, and the rest of the time was fighting. Li Lianjie was very happy, because his sparring with Zhang Chengyuan was still as "tacit" as before. It may not be appropriate to say that it is a tacit understanding, it should be said that Zhang Chengyuan can still see his every move clearly as before, and can dodge or parry at the most critical moment, making the fight between the two look extremely fierce, as if two martial arts masters with equal skills are making moves, exactly the same.
Similarly, when Zhang Chengyuan attacked him, he could also defend extremely well, and he felt that Zhang Chengyuan's attack speed always seemed to be able to control the extent that he could resist or dodge in time, neither making him look too calm, nor making him look embarrassed, which was really just right!
In this way, he can fully exert his strength without worrying that the two of them will be injured, how can such an almost unrestrained and unscrupulous fight not be enjoyable? In his mind, he should never meet a master like Zhang Chengyuan in his life who can make him fight so happily.
He also knew that if Zhang Chengyuan really wanted to defeat him, he was afraid that three moves and two styles would be enough.
After the practice, Li Lianjie did not immediately let Zhang Chengyuan go, but discussed the principles of martial arts with him. Speaking of martial arts, Zhang Chengyuan actually knows far less than Li Lianjie, maybe he can defeat Jet Li in a few moves, but he only relies on fast speed, large strength, and precise control. However, he has one strong point that can make up for these, that is, his strong comprehension and reasoning ability, no matter what Li Lianjie says about martial arts, he understands it first, and then draws inferences, and then what he says often makes Li Lianjie feel very reasonable. So the two talked tacitly this time, and they were invisibly close to each other.
Around twelve o'clock, he returned to his room and talked to his sisters on the Internet or on the phone for about two hours before he fell asleep. At about five o'clock in the morning, he got up early and took a walk in the courtyard of the hotel, boxing to clear his muscles.
At the end of the walk, he went to have breakfast, at this time most of the crew members had already gotten up, and gathered in groups in the restaurant lobby to eat, he walked over to greet everyone, whether he was familiar or not, he would say hello to him, and occasionally stop to say a word or two to the more familiar staff, compared to the domestic crew, it can be said that he is a few points more harmonious. Then I ordered a few breakfasts, sat in a corner and ate them.
While eating, Li Binbin and Liu Yifei also came in, and after greeting everyone, they sat next to Zhang Chengyuan, waved to the waiter, ordered a few dishes, and then each picked up a Jinhua shortbread ordered by Zhang Chengyuan, and ate it, not polite at all. The assistants who followed them sat at a table next to them.
Li Binbin said: "Yesterday, Xie Lu thanked you for helping me heal my injuries, otherwise I would definitely not be able to finish filming the scene in Ji Lu's plan yesterday." After Zhang Chengyuan treated her injuries, she rested for more than an hour, then got up to continue filming, and successfully completed the expected scene.
Zhang Chengyuan said: "There's nothing to thank, just help each other, and even if I don't treat you, you can still live a dragon and tiger if you rest for one night." ”
Li Binbin said: "What kind of dragon and tiger? If you don't help me heal, if I can run and jump today, it will be good! Anyway, I can't thank you for your help, and I'll treat you to today's breakfast! Well, this seems to be a little too insincere, or I'll invite you to breakfast in the future. ”
Liu Yifei said: "Brother Zhang's amount of food is not shallow, Sister Binbin, it seems that you are going to break the bank!" "Zhang Chengyuan has to eat at least two or three ordinary adult men's meals at every meal.
Li Binbin said: "It's nothing, as long as I get injured every time, Cheng Yuan can treat me, then it's worth it!" ”
Liu Yifei said: "If that's the case, it's really worth it to invite guests to dinner!" Sister Binbin, you're quite good at trading! ”
Zhang Chengyuan knew that the second daughter was just joking, and he didn't insist that he make a promise to heal, but it was nothing to promise to heal them, for him, it was just a gesture, so he smiled and said: "Sister Binbin, if you are really accidentally injured, even if you don't invite me to dinner, I can't stand by!" Well, it's the same with Yifei! ”
Hearing this, Li Binbin said happily: "Then I really want to thank you, I have decided, I will cover every meal for you in the future!" ”
Liu Yifei also said: "How can I let Sister Binbin pay alone, I will also make up a share!" After that, we will ask for one day each. ”
This breakfast was paid for by Li Binbin after the worst, Zhang Chengyuan did not pretend to be polite, and ate the amount of five people directly, which made Li Binbin spend a little money, but Li Binbin was not only not angry, but was quite happy, and felt that Zhang Chengyuan was more real and not hypocritical.
After eating, Zhang Chengyuan followed the crew to the Qin Palace on the set to film, although Li Binbin and Liu Yifei's scenes started in the afternoon, they also followed Zhang Chengyuan to the set, because they wanted to see the fight between Zhang Chengyuan and Li Lianjie, and wanted to use Li Lianjie and Zhang Chengyuan's superb skills, the fight must be very exciting, how could they miss it?
When he arrived at the set, he immediately began to prepare for filming, and after putting on the costumes in the play and putting on makeup in the dressing room, Zhang Chengyuan took the lead in entering the filming location, but at this time, Li Lianjie had not finished his makeup, he could only wait on the set, and talk to Li Binbin, Liu Yifei and others to relieve his boredom.
Li Lianjie played two roles in this movie, one is Sun Wukong, the other is the silent monk, both characters have a scene with the Yujiang God of War played by Zhang Chengyuan, and what we want to shoot today is the scene of the battle between the Yujiang God of War and the silent monk. Fortunately, otherwise, Zhang Chengyuan would have to wait for more than two hours, because Sun Wukong's makeup is extremely troublesome, and it usually takes about three hours. And the makeup of the monk is much simpler, half an hour is enough!
After waiting for a while, Li Lianjie arrived at the shooting site, felt a little strange after seeing Zhang Chengyuan, and said: "Why do you put on makeup faster than me, isn't your appearance of the god of war in Yujiang much more complicated than my monk's style?" ”
The shape of the god of war in Yujiang is indeed more complicated, not only to wear a wig set, but also to wear armor, but also to grow a beard, draw eyeliner, and trim eyebrows, while the monk almost only needs to change into a simple monk's attire and dress up a little on his face.
Without waiting for Zhang Chengyuan to answer, Liu Yifei said: "Brother Zhang changed his costume by himself, put on his own makeup, and his movements were very fast, it only took five minutes from beginning to end, and the effect was no worse than the makeup artist's handwriting." ”
It's exactly the same! This is because Zhang Chengyuan remembered all the circumstances in which the makeup artist had done for him in his mind, and then completely copied it, so there was no difference. Moreover, his hands and feet are extremely fast, his movements and strength are precisely controlled, and every makeup link can be almost done in one step, which saves a lot of time.
Li Lianjie looked at Zhang Chengyuan and said in surprise: "I finished my makeup in five minutes, so fast!" It would take me seven or eight minutes to change into a full monk's robe, and I didn't think you would have such a unique skill, uh, if I or the makeup artist who made me makeup, I would not have to sit and wait so painfully when I put on makeup as Monkey King. ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "If you are willing, big brother, I can give you a hand!" He didn't want to shoot Li Lianjie's sycophants, but felt that if Li Lianjie took too long to put on makeup, it would affect his filming process. Because a large part of his role is the fight with Sun Wukong, if he saves time for Li Lianjie to make up, then he also saves time for himself. And now, time is very precious to him, and it is a day to save a day.
Li Lianjie shook his head and said with a smile: "No need, this is not your job, if I ask you to help me make up, the rest of the crew will have to say that I am bullying the juniors!" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Big brother, I am doing you a favor, I am actually doing myself a favor, you don't know that when Lu Dao filmed the scene of Monkey King in Heaven last time, I was so anxious to wait, and you also know that I still have a TV series in South Korea that has not been filmed, and if my role can be filmed a day earlier, it will be a great joy for me." ”
Li Lianjie thought for a while and said: "Since that's the case, then I'll ask you for help, to be honest, every time I make up as Monkey King, I'm also annoyed, I can save some time, of course I'm happy!" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "I promise that within an hour, I can help you get the Monkey King's makeup." In fact, the last time he was waiting for Jet Li to put on makeup, he was idle, so he recorded the whole process of Jet Li making up as the Monkey King, and he already had the idea of helping with the makeup. I think that at the beginning, when filming "The Trouble of Beauty", he also helped Jin Yazhong make up an ugly girl because he wanted to finish filming as soon as possible. At that time, Jin Yazhong had to put on makeup for almost 4 hours every time, and he only helped out because he was impatient, not because he liked to be helpful.
The same is true at this time! If he wasn't in a hurry to rush back to South Korea to film, he wouldn't have bothered to help Li Lianjie put on makeup, although he had a good relationship with Li Lianjie at this time, but there was no need to drop the price to help him do such a favor.
