Chapter 180: On-site creation
In early August, a plane landed in Gunma Prefecture.
Fang Shun walked out of the airport with his assistant Liu Xiaodie.
"This is Gunma Prefecture."
It is also the filming location of the initial Akina Mountain, Hazuna Mountain.
That's right, the comics are all based on real life.
In order to restore as much as possible, Chou Dong gave up the bustling Tokyo and went to Gunma County, which is not economically developed.
It is worth mentioning.
Xie Junhao did succeed in getting the role of Fujihara Harata.
Not only the investor is satisfied, but the director is also satisfied.
Fang Shun was waiting for the crew car outside, but because his appearance was too brilliant.
I was constantly accosted by local women.
"One, two... Ten... Fifteenβ" Liu Xiaodie muttered something.
Finally, after Fang Shun was taken advantage of several times, the crew was late.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The driver kept apologizing.
Fang Shun understands that this is a foreign country after all, and it is common for language inconvenience and road impassability.
Half an hour later, Fang Shun came to the crew.
Dong Zhou was sitting on his AE86, and when he saw Fang Shun coming, he also took the initiative to press the horn.
Fang Shun ignored him and walked towards the director.
Joke!
The director is here, can he go to Dong Chou first?
How incapable of being a human being is to do such a brain-dead thing?!
"Director Liu, Director Mai"
Liu Weiqiang, one of the directors of Infernal Affairs, has great qualifications!
Mak Siu-fai, one of the directors and screenwriters of Infernal Affairs, will also direct films such as eavesdropping in the future.
Both are Hong Kong people, but their attitude towards Fang Shun is not as extreme as the media, but they are very respectful.
Director Liu looked Fang Shun up and down for a while, and I have to say that I am more handsome than the information.
No wonder Chou Dong packed the ticket at that time, saying that Fang Shun could definitely replace Guanxi.
"Fang Shun, do you know how to drive?" Director Liu asked.
"Will Some"
Director Liu saw his doubts and explained with a smile, "Although most of the stunts are handed over to computers and professional drivers, the actors still have to drive themselves for some shots, right?" β
Fang Shun responded with a smile.
Movies, what the director says is what it is.
Fang Shun was brought over by the technical director to familiarize himself with his car.
Director Liu smiled at Director Mai: "This kid is very energetic, not at all like what the media said"
Director Mai lit a cigarette for Director Liu, "It's normal, it's all those media fools!" β
"They still think that this is the era of Hong Kong film domination in the last century"
"If they mess up like this, sooner or later the Hong Kong movie will be finished"
Director Liu nodded approvingly.
In his directorial career, more and more domestic entertainment actors are used.
Not only are they cheap, but their acting skills are not much inferior to actors.
"By the way, Lao Mai, the actor is almost here, and he will be ready to start shooting in two days"
"Understood, I'm ready"
"Hard work"
A few days later at the start-up ceremony.
Fang Shun met the heroine of this film, Apricot Suzuki.
The first impression is very pure and cute.
Fang Shun had to sigh with the director's vision, and actually asked a pure girl to play a girl who aided her.
It gives a sense of contrast.
Directing is indeed a position that requires psychology.
Apricot Suzuki is not Chinese, but she is still very influential in Japan.
Fang Shun and Dong Chou both stood aside and smiled.
Anyway, the two of them didn't know Japanese, so they just whispered on the side.
"Ah Shun, that female reporter is good!"
"It's okay, right?"
"Heh, you're comparing yourself to your girlfriend, right? By the way, Ah Shun, do we want to cooperate in a real sense?! Dong Zhou looked at Fang Shun, his eyes full of refusal to admit defeat.
Fang Shun was also provoked by him, "How to cooperate?" β
"Let's write a song together"
Fang Shun understood, he wanted to prove in this way that he was not really pressed and beaten by Fang Shun all the time.
Fang Shun smiled, "Okay, let's see who can convince each other"
At this moment, Tanaka Qiane, who was silent, said: "Zhou Dongsang, Fang Shunsang, please be careful, there are a few reporters staring at you over there."
"You, can you speak Chinese?" Fang Shun was taken aback.
Dong Zhou snickered on the side, obviously he already knew.
Chie Tanaka bowed slightly, "I'm sorry, I did learn some Chinese, but Chinese culture is broad and profound, I can only use some everyday words"
Chie Tanaka is very modest.
Her spoken language, at least Fang Shun could hear it clearly.
Fang Shun looked at it carefully for a while, and then remembered, isn't this the heroine of the original Dong Chou Qilixiang?
I didn't expect the two to know each other so early.
"Chie-san Tanaka? Your Chinese is very good, don't be presumptuous"
Tanaka Chie pursed her lips and smiled, "Fang Shunsang, you just call me Chie, and after the name, Gasan is usually called a man"
Fang Shun made a joke.
Fang Shun is also very helpless, he usually sees Japanese movies, the plot is very simple, there is no complicated spoken language at all~
The boot-up ceremony is over.
Filming soon began.
The film was scheduled to be filmed within a month, so it was imperative to hurry.
And the crew is located in Hazuna Mountain.
Since this mountain is a common path for ordinary people, it is necessary to apply a few days in advance for each shooting.
And most of them are driven by Chou Dong.
Fang Shun is very laid-back.
During the break, Dong Chou was angry and punched him, "If you have time to sleep, then you might as well start studying how to write that song"
Fang Shun gave him a middle finger back.
"I've had an idea for a long time, but I'm not waiting for you, I'm afraid you won't give up."
Chou Dong's temper of not admitting defeat came up.
He asked for a piece of paper and two pens on the spot, "Come, don't talk big, let's create now!" β
"Come on, I'm afraid you won't make it"
The two of them wrote as soon as they put pen to paper, obviously they had already had ideas before.
The short ten-minute break passed.
It was their crew's turn to shoot.
But Jay Chou hasn't come yet.
Director Liu frowned, playing a big name?!
Liu walked towards the rest area, only to see a group of people gathered there.
Mai Dao was also there.
Director Liu said angrily: "You are still the director, if you don't remind the actors to shoot, what are you doing here?" β
Director Mai asked him to be quiet, and Director Mai pointed to the two men who were bowing their heads to create.
"Director Liu is quiet"
Director Liu laughed angrily, "In the end, it's still my fault?" β
"Director Liu, don't you know, the two of them are improvizing the theme song of this movie."
Director Liu doesn't know much about music, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know the hardships of creating a song.
These two are created in this mixed environment?
Director Liu was also a little curious and leaned over.
I saw the two arguing from time to time.
"You're not the right word"
"Phew! You're not doing the right composition here! Can your music fall from treble to bass in an instant?! β
"Hmph, that's my music"
The two will not only quarrel, but will also rejoice because of some embellishments.
"That's right! Adding this sentence here is great! β
"You're not bad, this transposition is really much better"
After a while, a piece of paper was densely written.
The lyrics are written on the front and the tune is drawn on the back.
Dong Chou and Fang Shun have hated each other from the beginning, but now they are hooking shoulders.
Chou Dong will carry a guitar wherever he goes, and Fang Shun is not as good as him in this regard.
Fortunately, Dong Chou still has a spare.
The two played and sang on the set.
"I went all the way north
Leave the season with you
You say you're so tired
I can't fall in love with anyone anymore
The wind blows on the mountain road
The past is all about me ...... wrong."
If the singing is wrong, it will be revised on the spot, but it will not affect the good sound of this song.
Everyone was infected by the timbre of the two.
Director Liu took the lead in applauding, "I didn't understand singers very well before, but now I understand, you two are geniuses!" β
"But two geniuses, is it time to film?"
Chou Dong's face flushed, he really forgot everything just now because he was addicted to music.
Chou Dong apologized, "I'll go over to film"
Director Liu didn't get angry, just patted him on the shoulder.
Not only did those who understood this scene admire the tacit understanding between the two, but even Chie Tanaka and Apricot Suzuki were amazed by the talents of Fang Shun and the others.
"Chie-chan, what's that handsome and talented man called?" An Suzuki asked.
"Fang Shunsang, it is said that he has dominated the Chinese pop singer list for two years, and he is a well-deserved genius!"
Chou: I only feel the surging sadness...
