Chapter 851: Finished

[Uncle] is the movie that has tested Zixi's acting skills the most so far, in this play, Zixi has no chance to be handsome, let alone play the noble son he is best at. As a self-exiled retired agent, a husband who has felt guilty about his dead wife all his life, Cha Tae-seok lives a life of walking dead in a corner that no one knows.

Although Zixi also had a bearded face when he took over the filming of [IRIS], he was basically stylish and stylish, not to mention his brave heroic temperament in [Transformers] and his noble and handsome in [Twilight]. But this time, Zixi completely got rid of the shape of a beautiful man, and he was completely an uncle who had lost the vicissitudes of life.

"Cut off contact with the world and live a lonely life" is the question that [Uncle] left people with before the beginning. For what? Why is it that a grade is not too big, but it is deliberately isolated from others? How can this need be interpreted, and it needs to be made without any words, just by expressions and actions, to make people feel that this is a withdrawn person?

After receiving the script, Zixi hid alone many times to figure out the role, and even called Director Li Zhenfan in the middle of the night, and the two chatted on the phone for several hours, describing their understanding and views on the role.

Moreover, director Li Zhenfan of this [uncle] joined human trafficking, organ trafficking, and poisoning. Sensitive topics such as smuggling further highlight that the protagonist's danger is to eliminate harm for the people, and it is inevitable to learn from the lone heroes of Europe and the United States.

It is precisely because of this premise that after the filming of the film started, Zixi, who has experience in this area, is even more handy, figuring out the inner world of the character, as well as performing the autistic and withdrawn characters very well, and even director Li Zhenfan has repeatedly praised Zixi's acting skills, saying that he is worthy of being a star in the world who has achieved success in Hollywood.

Zixi's speculation on the script is very good, but it doesn't mean that everything is going quite smoothly. During the filming, the most embarrassing scene for Zixi was that after learning that Xiaomi was arrested, Cha Tae-seok decided to go back to the rivers and lakes to save this little girl who was like family in his heart. Just a few simple actions and eyes, but Zixi was quite embarrassed, but the ten-second scene was filmed for a whole night, and it took more than 30 NG to pass. There are reasons why director Lee Jeong-fan keeps improving, and there are also reasons why Zi-hee still can't fully understand the relationship between Cha Tae-seok and Xiaomi.

Because Xiaomi, a little girl without a father, pinned everything she had on this unknown pawnshop uncle. Similarly, the only bit of "love" left in the heart of the self-enclosed uncle is also left in the interaction with Xiaomi. The only one who can impress the uncle is Xiaomi, and the only one who can make Xiaomi laugh can only be the uncle. This is the "love" that director Li Zhenfan has always wanted to express in the film, a warm heart under the dark and gloomy appearance.

The expressions and eyes of the characters in the film are very important, and another memorable nature is the action fights of the film. As we all know, Korean movies or TV dramas do not have a dedicated martial arts instructor, and all action fights are handed over to a hired professional martial arts team to complete. Including stand-ins for actors and actresses, as well as some designs for dangerous actions such as explosions, speeding cars, and jumping off buildings, are basically handed over to this team to complete, a bit like Hong Kong's dragon and tiger martial artists.

Director Lee Jeong-fan is not worried about Zixi's skills, which has been fully proven in [IRIS]. But Zixi's worth is extraordinary, and his identity background cannot be easily harmed, the film genre requires breaking through the window and falling to the ground, jumping off the Internet, all of which carry certain dangers, Director Li Zhenfan asked for a stand-in many times, but Zixi refused. Zixi thinks that she has the ability to complete these scenes, and as an actor, you can't use a stand-in just because it's a little dangerous, which is unprofessional as an actor.

Zixi is no stranger to action scenes, even if it is the most professional martial arts team in South Korea, compared with the dragon and tiger martial artists in Hong Kong, it is like a playhouse. When designing fights, many times Zixi will give her own opinions.

At the beginning, the actors of the martial arts troupe were very dissatisfied with the actions designed by Zixi, an actor, who modified them privately, and they specialized in the art industry, even if you are a star in the world, but in the field of action fighting, which actors of the martial arts troupe think that they are far better than anyone else, and they are more professional than any actor. Even the head of the martial arts troupe expressed dissatisfaction with director Li Zhenfan, believing that he, as a director, should manage his own actors.

However, Zixi quickly used his true kung fu to suppress these discordant voices. There is no martial arts heritage in South Korea, and taekwondo only has a few movements, which are still based on kicks and kicks of the feet, which are not suitable for use in the design of gorgeous action fights in film and television. Therefore, most of the action design of Korean film and television dramas needs to take elements from Western action movies to innovate Korean film and television. In recent years, due to the fact that Chinese kung fu films have shined in the world, and a [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon] has become internationally famous, so now Korean films and television films are more inclined to learn from Chinese martial arts.

This time, the shooting of [Uncle] invited the most famous martial arts team in Seoul, and the car, fight and explosion were basically completed by this team. But the action they designed was simple enough, from the past it was a flying kick, and the bad guy fell, and it was over. Even if it's a professional agent, even if it's a professional killing machine, the action can't be as simple as this, right?

The original face of Cha Tae-seok's character is a retired member of the special forces, who kills decisively, and every move and style is a killing move, so Zixi deliberately designed two different sets of actions. One is hand-to-hand combat, with gorgeous and dazzling moves, which are dizzying. The other set is that when the murderous intent starts, he holds a military dagger in his hand and makes a deadly move.

At first, the martial arts troupe thought that the movements designed by Zixi were too redundant, so why couldn't they defeat the enemy with one move? Zixi's retort was simple and neat, "Since the enemy is also a human, can he still stand there and let you fight?" The only thing that can kill an enemy in one move is a gun. Action fighting, of course, you have to make moves to experience the fierceness between each other, so as to make the camera picture fuller. ”

Although there were doubts about Zixi's words, the martial arts troupe still responded to Zixi's request and took a test shot under the supervision of the head of the martial arts troupe and director Li Zhenfan to see the effect.

The effect is good, director Li Zhenfan is very satisfied, and even the head of the martial arts troupe is nodding. Especially in the scene where Cha Tae-seok played by Zixi meets the killer for the first time in a pawnshop, Cha Tae-seok uses combo fast hits to knock people down, and then confronts the killer with a gun coldly, the tension and sense of scene presented by the camera, the moment he sees the camera, people can't help but hold their breath and wait for the follow-up development.

People have to rely on strength to prove themselves, with this simple shot, as long as there is a fight, the martial arts troupe will find Zixi to study together, which is an affirmation of his ability, and it is also a kind of mutual discussion and learning.

In the filming of [Uncle], there are two of the most intense fight scenes, one is in the bathroom of the nightclub, Cha Tae-seok and the killer collide fiercely for the first time. The other is the most lush finale scene, that is, Cha Tae-seok finds the gangster headquarters, fights with a group of outlaws, and fights the killer to the death again.

As the two main actors of this scene, Zixi and Thai actor Tanayong Wangtraku arrived early, and the two of them kept reconciling with the actors of the martial arts troupe to discuss and practice the movements for a while, to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

This scene tells the story of Cha Tae-seok, who found the gang's headquarters, looking at a pair of eyes thrown by the gang boss, Cha Tae-seok misunderstood that this was Xiaomi's eyes, which made him recall the moment when his wife died in front of his eyes, which made him feel painful, and also made Cha Tae-seok murderous, and wanted to kill all the people in front of him, which allowed him to calm the anger in his heart.

Cha Tae-seok, who was holding a dagger in his hand, even if he was beaten by the gang members, even if he no longer had a piece of good meat on his body, but whenever he saw the pair of unwilling eyes thrown in the corner, Cha Tae-seok's anger value soared again.

The white knife went in and the red knife came out, one by one the members fell, and one by one the evildoers were killed by Cha Tae-seok, without mercy, let alone saying a lot of useless nonsense before killing, simple and neat. Even in the face of the strongest enemies, they will never back down.

“OK!”

Director Li Zhenfan, who was sitting in front of the monitor, shouted loudly, and the head of the martial arts troupe sitting next to him also showed a smile on his face, and said with satisfaction: "Being able to work with a professional actor like Zixi is really a good learning opportunity." ”

"Yes! is really worthy of being a new superstar in Hollywood, and being able to cooperate with Zixi is also an opportunity for me. The smile on director Li Zhenfan's face is a little intriguing.

[Uncle] was finally finished, and under the announcement of director Li Zhenfan, the whole crew cheered loudly. After 40 days of intense shooting, all kinds of difficulties were eliminated, and [Uncle] finally completed the shooting. But this does not mean that it can be released, and it also needs to be produced and edited in the later stage, which needs to be slowly crafted, and the time required may not be shorter than the shooting cycle.

"It's finally done." Zixi threw away the military dagger he was holding, reached out and pulled Tannayong Wang Tlakul, who he had "killed", and patted him on the shoulder.

This Tannayong Wangtraku from Thailand has suffered a lot because of the fighting moves designed by Zixi, and for the sake of truthfulness, many of the movements are punches to the flesh, even if Zixi has retained his strength before the hit, Tannayong Wangtraku's body is still bruised and bruised.

"Yes! It's finally done. Tannayong Wangtraku stood up with Zixi's hand and said with a wry smile: "If I continue to shoot, I'm afraid I will be killed by you." ”

"Hahaha!" Zixi put her arm around Tanayong Wangtraku's shoulders and joked, "Don't worry, all the actors are insured." ”

"What are you so happy about!" Director Li Zhenfan, who came over with a smile on his face, asked.

Tannayong Wangtraku pointed at Zixi and said, "Zixi said that in order to celebrate the finale, he invited us to dinner tonight, and then went to the nightclub to play all night." ”

"I'm afraid Zixi is not available." Director Li Zhenfan turned around and pointed to Gu Hye-sun who was standing, then touched the mustache on his chin and said with a smile: "But I won't mind Zixi paying for tonight's consumption at all, don't you say?" The last words were said to Zixi.

Seeing Gu Hye-sun for a moment, Zixi was also stunned. They used to be good friends, but as Gu Hye-sun got to know Zi-hee better, their relationship gradually began to drift apart, and sometimes Goo Hye-sun would take the initiative to avoid Zi-hee, but I didn't expect that this time he would take the initiative to come to the set to find him.
