Chapter 297: Battle of Flames!
"The Grandmaster" is naturally not a horror film, and it has no intention of scaring the audience with a weird atmosphere.
It just uses Zhou Yang's permeable acting skills and atmosphere to render an ignorant and insensitive world.
The script of "The Grandmaster" is roughly written by Zhou Yang according to the memory of "Huang Feihong Men Should Be Self-Improvement", and the main line is the same, but Zhou Yang does not have a system, and it is impossible to completely change all the content in the movie to the original world......
He prefers the extreme and the rendering of the atmosphere of the movie, because he knows martial arts, has held a knife since he was a child, and has experienced some "rivers and lakes" in the years when Hong Kong Island was once ruled by "foreigners".
Film critic Ba Liming was startled by the little girl's smile for a while, and a trace of sadness inexplicably appeared in his heart.
That's superstition!
But......
When Zhou Yang performed with such expressive acting skills, he felt that he was possessed by something crazy across the screen, let alone the people who were on the scene.
Ba Liming suddenly thought of the news on Hong Kong Island when "The Grandmaster" was filmed.
[Please God on the spot, mainland boy or possessed by evil ghosts]
[The filming site of "The Grandmaster" was shocked by a supernatural incident, and the mainland boy went crazy and convulsed, and the suspicious god failed! ] 】
[At the door of the Kowloon Church, many old ladies knelt down and worshipped, chanting words in their mouths. 】
【……】
In retrospect, those news headlines are still vivid.
"It's sad!"
After coming out of the memories, after watching the rampant White Lotus Sect members riding horses on the screen and shouting "White Lotus to save the world" everywhere, the sadness in Ba Liming's heart became more and more intense.
Even though it is the 21st century, there are still so many people who are immersed in superstition, let alone in that era when the people's wisdom was not opened and the world was in chaos.
The guns of foreigners not only broke the backbone of that era, but also broke the backbone of many people's hearts.
…………………………
The background of "The Grandmaster" is depressing.
In order to prevent this repression from becoming the tone of the whole movie, Huang Jiacheng deliberately put a ruthless hand on the character design, which was more ruthless than what Zhou Yang wrote in the script.
Some of the plots of Huang Feihong, the protagonist of "The Grandmaster", are humorous, especially the interaction with the heroine Thirteen Aunts.
The heroine of "The Grandmaster" is named Yao Xue, Zhou Yang is not familiar with Yao Xue, and she has no rivalry, only knows that she is the heroine who was shoehorned in by the investor.
Huang Feihong played by Huo Yuanjie and Aunt Thirteen played by Yao Xue are very humorous in the interactive part of the movie.
Huang Jiacheng's sense of contrast of the characters is controlled to the extreme, Huang Feihong, who has always been serious and even a little pedantic, when he encounters some Western utensils, he feels strange, but he can't show that he has not seen the world in front of his apprentices, so many operations are like "Uncle Nine Drinking Coffee" is like a strong bun that has seen the world, and the open and bold Thirteenth Aunt seems to be open and generous, but she will always fantasize about some scenes of dancing with Huang Feihong, after meeting the serious Huang Feihong, There will always be embarrassing scenes where reality and fantasy deviate......
In the screening hall, many audience members were amused by the characters of the two people.
Tang Xiao was also a little amused, and after laughing, he instinctively glanced at An Zhibin.
An Zhibin next to An Xiao didn't smile, his expression was always very serious, he sat straight and his back was as straight as a pine, as if he didn't come to watch a movie, but to come to some meeting.
The movie has been playing for twenty minutes.
He kept staring at the screen, Tang Xiao looked at his serious appearance, and suddenly felt that he was very suitable for the role of Huang Feihong.
"How?" Tang Xiao touched his arm with his arm.
"General." He replied calmly.
"Will you go halfway?" Tang Xiao continued to ask.
An Zhibin was silent, just looking at the screen expressionlessly.
Huang Jiacheng's kind of picture-scroll shooting is getting deeper and deeper, and after it is slowly unfolded, although he tries to portray the perspective of the protagonist, every scenery can make An Zhibin feel a picture of the building about to collapse in the storm......
The ignorant people are insensitive to smoking opium, the chaotic situation is complicated, the feudal trend is deep-rooted, the country is not a country, and the family is not a family.
Some people live in a state of confusion, and the country has nothing to do with the family......
And others are trying to be the supporting wooden pillar in the edifice that will fall.
On the screen, Donnie Yen's character Nalan Yuanshu appeared, as a martial artist, he was born with a kind of upright spirit, but he was like a tragic character.
On the one hand, he understands that the court is rotten and difficult to support alone, on the other hand, the patriotic thoughts of loyalty to the monarch that are deeply rooted in the bone marrow are vividly interpreted in him, knowing that the country is like this, but he has to shoulder that responsibility......
In front of the screen.
When he saw Nalan Yuanshu emphasizing that this was Huaxia in front of foreigners, and behaving neither humbly nor arrogantly, An Zhibin flashed a little sigh in his heart.
He has to admit that the movie "The Grandmaster" is indeed different from other martial arts movies, its intention is very high, and it has risen to the height of family, nation and history......
In particular, the fictional characters and historical figures appear one by one, colliding with each other, and in the context of this dark era, the spirit of staggering forward and still exploring the light in a pool of blood is extremely moving.
"It's almost coming, it's about to start!"
"What's going to begin?"
"In the scene of "Burning Nine Palaces", I heard that in order to make this movie more realistic, Huang Jiacheng spent nearly five million to build a real Nine Palaces, but during filming, a fire was set on the scene, and many actors filmed in the fire!"
"I'm grass, really fake?"
"Have you forgotten the news when "The Grandmaster" was filmed? According to the grapevine, a lot of actors were burned, and a lot of camera equipment was burned out of problems......"
"This ......"
An Zhibin heard the discussion.
He frowned slightly, and then stared at the screen.
…………………………
on screen.
The flames burned with the wind.
Under the camera, the bamboo tables and chairs are swallowed by tongues of fire, and the sound of crackling is constantly sounding in the black smoke.
In the sky-high firelight, the surrounding air generated layers of heat like water, and you could feel a burst of heat through the screen.
When they learned that the scene was filmed in a real fire, the audience thought that the director Huang Jiaxiang was crazy, but a strong curiosity drove them to stare at the screen closely.
"Xiaoxiao is superstitious, and he only dares to pretend to be a ghost and come out to die!"
On the screen, they saw Nalan Yuanshu, who was wearing a flowered hat and a long-sleeved official uniform, holding a long stick in his hand, chasing a White Lotus Sectist into the raging flames, facing the endless flames, holding the long stick in his hand, and roaring into the sky!
In the flames, the shadows of the sticks are heavy, whirring!
Around the stick shadow, one by one, the illuminated red-colored bodies rushed out of the flames with long knives and attacked Nalan Yuanshu.
Dressed in white and white hats, but walking in the fire, in the scorching flames, every figure is like a ghost, attacking in all directions, and there are no dead ends, but Nalan Yuanshu's long stick seems to have long eyes, not only blocking the bursts of knife light, but also picking up the figure under the knife light to fly a few meters, making it fall into the sea of fire and turn into ashes!
"This is a stick method derived from Goro's gossip stick."
"Sweeping the body with a stick, the ultimate stick method can be done, holding the bucket and splashing, but the water can't be splashed!"
In the screening room!
One viewer couldn't help but exclaim.
In the exclamation, everyone saw Donnie Yen on the screen stepping forward with his feet, his stick was sharp, and countless figures fell in response.
The audience's eyes were straight, and many people clung to the armrests of their chairs excitedly!
In reality, they had never seen such an amazing stick trick!
A sweep, a slash, a stab, a shock, is simply a visual feast without special effects.
"Divine power and body protection, invincible in the world, divine power and body protection, invincible in the world!"
Donnie Yen's martial arts skills are outstanding, but in the sea of fire, bursts of roars from all directions are getting louder and louder, as if chanting scriptures and circulating back and forth, and the magic sound is permeating.
In the firelight, the audience saw a white-clothed believer coming from all directions in the west, their faces were pious, but their movements were like fierce beasts, rushing towards Nalan Yuanshu, and those who were close to him opened their hands and exerted their muscles, and they wanted to pick up Nalan Yuanshu by the waist and drag him down into the fire.
The camera gives a close-up of these believers, these believers have fanatical eyes, their bodies are burned by flames but they are not painful, their eyes are bloodshot, as if they are guarding some faith, and there are words in their mouths, endless......
Seeing the close-up of these believers, many viewers shuddered, what means did these "White Lotus Sects" use to brainwash them into this?
But......
Although these believers are crazy, they are only supporting characters in this scene after all.
Nalan Yuanshu used one block ten, his feet stepped on the ground and rose into the air, the fire was scorching, the stick swept all directions, how many people died, no one could deceive nearly half a point, between breathing, I don't know how many figures were buried in the sea of fire, dyed into ashes!
The essence of Gorou's gossip stick was vividly interpreted by him.
"Donnie Yen definitely has real kung fu!"
"Those believers were all provoked by others!"
"How can ordinary people have such amazing power on such an occasion!"
"Moreover, looking at his endless breathing, and then looking at the long shot of this scene, it was almost filmed in one go, and there was no cutting element in it......"
"I'm grass!"
"The big scene is coming!"
The audience was shocked.
Some knowledgeable film critics also widened their eyes, and the more they watched, the more frightened they felt!
The next picture made their hearts tremble!
"Boom!"
There was a loud bang!
The wooden pillar on the other side of the Nine Palaces could not withstand the raging flames, and broke in the middle and collapsed in an instant.
Everyone saw that the white figures were smashed into the sea of fire on the spot, and there were bursts of screams, but the roaring sound of words still came from all directions, never stopping!
Even, they saw a White Lotus cultist with flames all over his body actually churning in the sea of fire, singing the ballad of "Heaven for Jade Emperor, Underground for Hades", and then was swallowed by the sea of fire.
The audience who saw this scene instantly covered their mouths, and their hearts were shocked, obviously the fire was burning in the movie, but they added to the chill!
Those are living people!
How did Huang Jiacheng shoot it!
