Chapter 440: The Terrible Sun Peng
-QP$k*t?b??? #???y)J?? /????? ]??????????? -n; 9? A? M?#??;??? Dunhuang.
The weather at the end of April is still a little chilly, but it is in full swing in a place covered with yellow sand, and the crew of "Dragon Gate Inn" is in the midst of intense filming.
"Remember, I want coldness!"
Before the filming of this scene started, Sun Peng said to Meng Lingjun seriously: "Whether you break out of the sedan chair or fall on the horse, your expression must remain the same!" And after falling, you must immediately shoot the horse and gallop, without the slightest delay...... Do you understand? ”
"Understood, Mr. Sun!"
Taking a deep breath, Meng Lingjun nodded with a solemn expression.
This shot has been taken twice, and Meng Lingjun's body has been hanging in the air and flying around several times, and his waist is about to break, but it still can't achieve the effect of satisfying Sun Peng, and everyone is a little anxious.
Seeing that the top of the sedan chair was set up by the prop master again, Sun Peng waved his hand and said, "All departments are ready, start in five minutes!" ”
After everyone was busy, Sun Peng could finally walk to the side to catch his breath, and then drink saliva to moisten his throat.
"Mr. Sun, your idea is very interesting!"
While Sun Peng was resting, Wei Xiaolin smiled with admiration: "I didn't think much of it if I only read the script before, but now I look at the shooting effect and it's really handsome...... Haha, I'm looking forward to the dubbing in the future! ”
"Well, it should be pretty good."
Screwing on the lid of the kettle, Sun Peng also smiled and nodded.
Isn't that handsome?
If you wait until a few days later to start shooting the final shots, Cao Shaoqin and the three protagonists have a big battle in the yellow sand, and the last guy shaves Cao Shaoqin's hands and feet, what kind of reaction will you have?
Of course, Wei Xiaolin didn't know what Sun Peng was thinking, but he just looked at Meng Lingjun, who played Cao Shaoqin, and Ye Xing, who was helping next to him, with an appreciative expression, and nodded again and again: "These young people are really good, although their acting skills are a little immature, but they are barely enough to deal with our movie." I think the best part is the action scenes, these guys are really good...... We were moving so fast, but it was a bit of a surprise to me. “
"Haha, because I prepared in advance!"
Listening to Wei Xiaolin's admiration, Sun Peng laughed a little proudly.
The filming process after coming to Dunhuang was much easier than Sun Peng imagined. The main reason is that all the action designers Sun Peng drew the drawings a long time ago, and then handed them over to Ye Xing and them, and the five of them have already practiced countless times in the past half a year, so when it comes to filming, except for the problem of acting skills, there is basically no need to reshoot the third shot, and this time it is an exception.
And......
In addition to the five tiger generals under Sun Peng, there are as many as sixteen martial arts masters alone!
The salary of 3,000 yuan per person per day is 50,000 yuan a day, plus various expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and food, it is 2 million a month, which is definitely the most cost-effective investment in Sun Peng's view. Especially these awesome young men are all true experts brought by Ye Xing and them, ensuring that there will never be a speechless scene in the camera!
In order to achieve the best results, Sun Peng will not be stingy with this investment.
If there is any dissatisfaction with the original "New Dragon Gate Inn", in addition to those cost-saving sets, it is the ineffective performance of the group actors. Especially in the slightly more scene part - if there are dozens of people even if there are some scenes, the other fights except for the main characters look so incongruous that it is really unsightly.
So this time, Sun Peng kept improving, ensuring that the fights that entered the camera must be beautiful.
After pondering for a while, Sun Peng said with a straight face: "Mr. Wei, tomorrow you will shoot the footage of the horse team, I don't know if you are ready?" ”
Two directors, each responsible for their own shots.
Wei Xiaolin's manpower has not yet arrived today, so he will have time to observe Sun Peng's side, but when the horse team arrives tomorrow, he will hurry to shoot his own content.
"Don't worry, it's already ready."
Speaking of his work, Wei Xiaolin said with confidence: "Forty horses, forty-five jockeys, all of them are experienced veterans, I have cooperated when I came to shoot "The Remnant Sun of the Desert" before, absolutely no problem!" And bows and crossbows are all ready-made, and they will use them...... Oh yes, it's just that the matter of renting a blower is a little troublesome, and it may take a little extra money. ”
"Add money? Money is not an issue, but the results must be guaranteed. ”
After frowning slightly, Sun Peng could only emphasize helplessly.
There are really a lot of things to keep a crew running, and any little problem can lead to the final shot problem, so Sun Peng can't help but pay attention to it. Fortunately, there is Wei Xiaolin, the director and producer, otherwise I am afraid he will really be anxious.
Even so, in Wei Xiaolin's opinion, the progress of filming is a little slow.
In other words, Sun Peng's character is a little troublesome for every shot, and if he is a little dissatisfied after filming, he will have to start again. Not to mention slowing down the progress, the cost of filming is also rising rapidly, which makes Wei Xiaolin anxious every time......
"Director Sun, you're all ready!"
While the two were chatting, a young man hurriedly walked over and said.
"Okay, right away!"
Sun Peng suddenly shook his spirits, nodded at Wei Xiaolin, and then trotted over and shouted: "Come, everyone moves, all departments pay attention to ......"
Looking at the high-spirited Sun Peng, the smile on Wei Xiaolin's face gradually retracted.
Although there are many problems of this kind and that, Sun Peng's rapid progress these days also makes Wei Xiaolin secretly admire. only took a director training class, in Wei Xiaolin's opinion, he was actually a layman, in fact, Sun Peng's performance at the beginning did prove this. But after almost a month, he found that this guy's progress was incomprehensible!
And what's even more amazing is this guy's sensitivity to the content and shots of the movie!
Any director, even a big-name director who has been in this industry for decades, cannot guarantee that he will not have to revise all his scripts. In fact, they tend to be inspired during the shoot, often revise the content, and try again and again until they find the most suitable one.
But Sun Peng didn't seem to care about such a situation.
All the content does not need to be considered, and it is filmed directly according to the script; The lenses are also determined, and there is no need to think about it at all. For this young director Sun Peng, this problem seems to have never existed!
It's like ......
It's as if Sun Peng originally had the movie "Dragon Gate Inn" in his mind, and people just reproduced it according to the content in it!
No hesitation, no thinking!
It is precisely because of this that although the requirements for excellence have caused the cost of some lenses to continue to rise, after careful calculation, Wei Xiaolin was surprised to find that the actual total cost has not increased, because all the reserved expenses when making the budget in advance do not exist!
Seeing that Sun Peng commanded the crew to get ready, and when Meng Lingjun started filming again, Wei Xiaolin's brows furrowed deeply.
It would be terrible if the final result was good......
