Action movies are not too difficult to make, if they are just fist-punching, then not to mention the Hong Kong film industry, even the mainland film industry can shoot not very badly, ensuring that it is exciting and intense, after all, this is also the biggest advantage of Chinese films!

But where is there room for pure fighting movies to survive now?

No matter how hard you play, no matter how dazzling you are, the audience whose eyes have long been nurtified by Hollywood blockbusters will not sell it, because most fans prefer all kinds of big scenes of violent explosions and destruction.

To put it mildly, if there are no thrilling car skills, shocking explosions, and exciting gunfights in today's action movies, then this movie is simply embarrassed to call itself an action movie.

And in this way, it naturally makes the movie difficult to shoot, especially the shooting of blasting scenes.

"Chic, Tingfeng, Wu Jing ......"

In a large warehouse in Wan Chai, Chen Musheng looked at the three leading actors in front of him, and said very solemnly: "The next scene will be the most exciting, but also the most difficult and dangerous plot of our film, you are likely to be injured, most of them will be painted, I hope you can be safe, there is no injury at all, just finish filming smoothly and well!" ”

Xie Tingfeng nodded silently and didn't say anything, but he couldn't help touching his cheek with his hand, there were some bruises on it, which was accidentally injured by Wu Jing's fist in the previous shot.

Probably touching the sore spot, he couldn't help but take a cool breath, and his facial muscles twitched a few times involuntarily.

The dashing brother with bandages was expressionless, just hummed.

But there was still a little blood on the corner of his mouth, which was caused by an accident during the filming scene just now. There is still some blood in my mouth at this time!

Wu Jing is the most normal. He smiled and nodded back, "No problem!" ”

He is the most beautiful in this movie. At least before the ending, it was the most beautiful, because he was the one with the strongest force, and there was no scene of being beaten at all, and he was completely invincible.

In a simple sentence, Wu Jing is sweeping in this movie, only he beats people, and no one can beat him, so his makeup and image are maintained very well. At most, I was sweating, and there were no scars on my face at all.

Chen Musheng saw the expressions of the three of them in his eyes, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Please pay attention, don't NG, because the reshoot of the blasting scene is too troublesome, especially these large-area saccharified glass is really difficult to make and install!" ”

He pointed to the upstairs floor of prop glass, which closely resembled the real thing, and that was being urgently installed by several support staff.

In addition to the upper floor, the warehouse hall was also erected with many glass compartments, and then it was also arranged with desks, chairs, water dispensers, filing cabinets, safes, etc., because this is the environment of the office building of the Hong Kong Police Headquarters.

Frankly. Such an arrangement is really too cumbersome and huge. Anyway, as someone in the show knows, the renovation of this warehouse alone cost millions of Hong Kong dollars, and then the cost of various decorations and the final explosion scene added up, and it cost at least 3 million Hong Kong dollars here.

In other words, if this scene can't be successfully completed at one time, the entire crew will have to spend millions of dollars to re-set the scene again, and it will also delay at least 1 day before filming can be restarted.

This is simply burning money, there is wood?

The scenes set up by millions or even tens of millions of funds can only appear intermittently in the movie for a short period of 10 minutes, which is really an eye-opener for someone.

It was also at this time that he once again firmly established an idea in his heart, that is, he should never be a director.

Take a look at the image of Chen Musheng, a great director, at this time!

Originally, he attached great importance to the image of a middle-aged man who looked elegant, but recently, in order to make the movie better and more perfect, he ended up forgetting all about the image problem.

The face was oily, and there were a lot of small red spots, the hair was messy, and it looked like it hadn't been washed, and the beard on the chin had become half an inch long, so I didn't have time or heart to shave.

This is the pressure of being a director, and this is the price of screenwriter + director + producer.

At least, Brother Chic never felt how good or majestic it was to be a director, and he also knew that he didn't have that talent, and he couldn't have the ability to control the entire crew, let alone make overall arrangements for all filming matters.

"Okay, since everyone is fine, then Ah Zhi will tell you about the specific action arrangements!"

Chen Musheng wiped a handful of his hair upside down, and then habitually scratched his neck, ignoring the dirt on his fingers that blackened his neck, and gave the next thing to the action director of this film with some excitement, that is, Li Zhongzhi, who came out of the family class.

Speaking of Li Zhongzhi, this person is also a veteran action director, who has been engaged in action direction since 94, and has cooperated with Wang Jing, Mai Zhaohui, Lin Lingdong, Liu Weiqiang, Chen Musheng and Fang Chenglong.

Among them, he and Chen Musheng have cooperated the most times, such as "New Police Story", "Three Forks", "Baby Plan", etc., all of which are action directors served by him, which can be regarded as Chen Musheng's golden partner.

Therefore, the members of the crew, including Brother Chic, are very convinced of him, after all, he is a real old qualification! Hollywood blockbusters like "Rush Hour" are all directed by him.

"Okay, then I'll tell you how to shoot!"

Li Zhongzhi, who was wearing glasses, walked up when he heard the voice, he didn't say much, probably because he was born as a martial artist, his favorite thing is to directly use action demonstration + explanation, which can quickly express his action design concept clearly.

"Wait a minute, first of all, Tang Xiaosheng, you will have a tense chase scene with Tian Yangsi played by Wang Xuemei, you run away in front with a bag of US dollars, and Tian Yangsi is chasing behind with a police pistol, all the way to the laundry room, you hide under the drying clothes rack, and wait for her to catch up. You push the clothes rack. Knock out the pistol in her hand! ”

Li Zhongzhi spoke very slowly. Then he made various actions with the explanation, and the dashing brother silently remembered it in his heart, looking very focused.

"Because your arm is not good, and even aggravated the injury, and at the same time, you are carrying a backpack with banknotes, so you will be very embarrassed, and you can only constantly resist and dodge when attacked by Wang Xuemei, so... Such... Such...... You get it, right? ”

Li Zhongzhi explained in detail. The action was also very specific, and he said at the end: "In the end, Wang Xuemei was killed by the bursting steam, and you flew out of the laundry room, and then you were chased and killed by Tianyangzhi." ”

Speaking of this, he concluded: "That's all for your scene today, if you finish filming early, you can rest!" Questions? ”

"Nope!" Brother Chic replied affirmatively.

Jokes, they've been 'beaten' recently, and they've already had experience, isn't this little KS a little bit of a scene!

"Good. Then you go touch up your makeup! Next is Ting Feng and Wu Jing. ”

Li Zhongzhi gave a satisfied smile and asked someone to get ready first. Brother Chic was naturally not polite, and immediately went to the makeup artist to get busy, and let him explain their action design to Xie Tingfeng and Wu Jing.

……

"Chic, this paragraph is wrong!"

Chen Musheng sat behind the monitor and didn't move, but Li Zhongzhi, who was the action director, shouted, and then he looked at someone who was puzzled and said: "Don't forget, your arm was hit by a bullet and has not healed, and you have no strength at all, so in this scene just now, you can only use one hand to pad your backpack to resist Tianyangsi's stick blows, instead of suddenly becoming two hands carrying a backpack!" ”

"Sorry, I didn't mean to, this time it definitely won't!"

After being said by the action director, Brother Chic immediately recalled his mistake and immediately apologized.

Because just now, in the face of Wang Xuemei's 'vicious' smashing stick, he reflexively raised his backpack with both hands, but he forgot that he was playing the role of a "disabled person", this NG really shouldn't be!

"It's okay, this kind of thing is actually normal, you are really kung fu!"

Seeing that someone immediately woke up to his mistake, Li Zhongzhi didn't think much of himself, and comforted him, and then nodded to Chen Musheng, who shouted "Ike God" and started filming again.

……

"Your arm seems to be seriously injured, this big lump is swollen, can you still pick up vegetables?"

At noon, everyone was eating takeout, which is the legendary box lunch, which is no exception to the great director Chen Musheng.

After all, this is a crew in a hurry, and it is really impossible for all of them to go to the restaurant for dinner, so it takes a loser to come out!

Several leading actors have been mixed together for a long time, and they have become good friends at this time, so everyone simply sat down with a boxed lunch to eat, and Fang Group Ming accidentally found that Brother Xiaoxiao's right arm was bruised a lot, so he hurriedly asked worriedly.

"I'll see...... It's really swollen! Did you hurt your bones? ”

Wu Jing and Xie Tingfeng both came over, but at first glance, both of them were a little nervous, because Tang Xiao's right arm was really swollen at this time! It's bigger than the left hand.

"Hehe, it's okay, it's just a little injury!"

Although Brother Chic was very grateful for their concern, and his heart was a little moved, but his face did not show any pain, and he smiled brightly and said: "Really, let's eat, today's dish is not bad, the chicken thighs are very fragrant!" ”

Seeing that he looked heartless, Xie Tingfeng pursed his lips, as if he had thought of something, picked up the chopsticks and inserted the lunch, and finally said: "I know, you must have been hit, I also watched the Grammy shortlist announcement last night......"

"Hehe......"

Brother Chic smiled and slowed down the speed of the rice, swallowed the contents of his mouth in a few bites, and then put up his chopsticks to stop the name of the fang group who wanted to speak, and said very seriously: "There is nothing to hit or not blow, really, who told me that my record was released a little late?" It's only been a month since it was released, and I was able to get two nominations for Best Newcomer and Best Asian Record, which I personally think is really good. ”

After he finished speaking, he was about to continue eating, but saw Li Minghao hurriedly running over and said loudly: "Boss, there are suddenly a lot of reporters outside the set, and they all want to interview you!" ”

Before Brother Chic's eyes flashed, Chen Musheng put down the lunch box and walked over, and said with a smile: "Chic, go and explain it briefly, I expected such a thing in the morning!" (To be continued......)
