Chapter 231: This is a long-distance relationship warning film, right?
"Congratulations, Jiang Bai, this time I won the Best Supporting Actor, and next time I should win the best actor."
After everything was settled, Jiang Bai was about to leave for Ukraine.
After Zhang Yi saw Jiang Bai at the airport, he congratulated with a smile.
"Director Zhang, borrow your auspicious words, but then I have to wait a little longer, now the films I have as the starring actor have almost been filmed, and there is only one TV series in the future."
"TV series can also be a TV emperor."
"Hopefully."
"But what's the name of that TV series you're filming? I remember there was a lot of commotion. ”
"The Legend of Sword and Fairy."
"Yes, that's it, we don't have many such films in the mainland now, and the Tang people are also quite powerful, although most of them are young actors, but they have good potential." Zhang Yi said again.
"Director Zhang, when will you also make a movie with the theme of Xianxia?"
"Then I guess it's enough, it's not easy to master Xianxia than martial arts, and I've only made so many historical films with martial arts elements, so take your time in the future."
They also got on the plane while chatting.
The next shooting in Ukraine is not too much of a problem, originally there were only a few scenes to be filmed, but the plot is a little more complicated, but it is the environmental factors that really consume time.
At the beginning of the design, Zhang Yi wanted to plant a sea of flowers there, so he spent thousands of dollars to buy a lot of seeds, and specially invited more than 80 local flower farmers to take care of them.
But later he found that the growth of these flowers was not good enough, so he had to find another original flower field again.
Unexpectedly, the snow season in Ukraine came ahead of schedule, and in the days of filming, it snowed heavily in Ukraine, and I saw that the flower fields were covered with heavy snow.
It won't melt at all in ten days and half a month, not to mention that the snow doesn't know when it will stop.
So the problem that we had to face later was that the previous scene of the sea of flowers chasing and fighting had already been filmed, and if we wanted to carry out the same scene to the end, we had to reshoot this scene in the snow, or wait until the snow was over and the snow completely melted away.
Either way it is time-consuming.
In foreign countries, it is not as good as at home, and the shooting cycle that was previously set for how long must be completed within the cycle, and then leave the country, so they can't wait any longer.
There was no way, Zhang Yi had to change the ending separately, from a sea of flowers to snow.
Just a small transition in between.
At the end, the little sister let Liu Zhutou go, and then after careful consideration, she decided to wander the world with Liu Zhutou and go to the land of flowers together.
Jiang Zhutou, who found everything, saw that his childhood sweetheart actually ran away with a man he had just known for a few days, so he immediately chased after him.
After making sure that Xiaomei was completely in love with the man, Jiang Zhutou killed Xiaomei in tears, and then Liu Zhutou found that Xiaomei was dead, and Jiang Zhutou appeared in grief, and the two started a big battle.
Liu Dehua practiced this action for more than half a month, he was practicing between the filming of the crew, and when Zhang Yi was worried about the sudden change of the scene, Liu Dehua was also practicing.
He is looking for Jiang Bai every day, just to make the final scene more exciting.
But in the middle of the fight, the little sister who was supposed to be dead stood up again.
This time, she is still on Liu Zhutou's side.
Facing Jiang Zhutou, who was about to use his own mastery flying knife, and Liu Zhutou, who was waiting for death, between these two male gods, the little sister finally chose Liu Dehua.
"If you kill him, I will kill you with this throwing knife."
The goose-feather-like snow was falling, and in this icy and snowy place, Jiang Zhutou's heart was colder than the air outside.
It turned out that the clown was actually Jiang Catcher himself!
The little sister still has her own flying knife stuck in her body, and at this time, the little sister would rather pull out the flying knife and let herself not survive, and she has to save Liu Zhutou.
And Liu Zhutou really understood the little sister's mind at this moment, directly dropped the weapon in his hand, and staggered towards Jiang Zhutou, at such a close distance, if Jiang Zhutou was ruthless to kill herself, then the little sister would definitely not be able to stop it.
He is already bent on dying, just so that his little sister can live.
But in the end, Jiang Zhutou made a move to throw the knife, and at the same time, the little sister also pulled out the knife on her body and flew out.
And the direction in which she flung away was not Jiang Zhutou, but the flying knife that she wanted to use her own flying knife to intercept Jiang Zhutou.
It's just that he didn't expect that Jiang Zhutou didn't throw the flying knife in the end, but just like Ah Bai in the new police story.
His flick was just a drop of crimson blood.
The little sister's knife struck the drop of blood as she wished, but she herself fell on the snow because she began to lose a lot of blood.
The little sister died in Liu Zhutou's arms, Liu Zhutou held the body of the little sister in the snow and grieved beyond measure, and Jiang Zhutou, who was also disheartened, turned around, staggered, and stumbled into the distance.
Although his acting skills are compelling, Jiang Bai has never been able to completely bring into Jiang Zhutou's emotions, because these actions designed by Zhang Yi are completely inconsistent with Jiang Bai's style of acting.
If Jiang Bai was allowed to play the role, as early as the beginning, he would not give his little sister a chance to return to the light.
How is a stab enough?
At least two or three stabs in the heart, and then wipe the person's neck, so that the person can die.
And even if you kill someone, you will never leave a knife at the scene of the crime.
Taking 10,000 steps back, even if the little sister really returns to the light in the end, and she can find a flying knife on her body, when it comes to the final confrontation, Jiang Bai will definitely trick the flying knife on the little sister first, and then directly kill Liu Zhutou to ensure that the two can die completely.
"Please, Jiang Zhutou is an undercover agent now, and if he can't complete the task, he will definitely not let go of a person who can't even complete the task, and if he stays alive, what if Liu Zhutou goes back to reveal himself, he still won't survive.
Now the ending is beautiful, and everyone's feelings are also reflected, but it's like child's play, pure art for art's sake. ”
Jiang Zhutou staggered two steps and fell into the snow, thinking in his heart.
He suddenly thought of a line from Stephen Chow's Journey to the West filmed many years ago.
"He's like a dog."
Now Jiang Bai only felt that he looked like that dog.
The job is gone, the wife is gone, and the brother is gone.
Jiang Bai feels that this film is not like a martial arts film, but more like a film that warns those couples in long-distance relationships.
Long-term companionship is not as good as temporary warmth.
When your girlfriend calls and tells you that her aunt is here, you can only say that you drink more hot water in another city, while the seniors or juniors in the same school can stay by your side and ask for warmth.
"Okay, it's done!"
When the camera finally froze on Jiang Bai and fell in the snow, Zhang Yimou stood up and shouted, and everyone began to applaud to celebrate the completion of the play.
In order to shoot this last scene, everyone braved the heavy snow.
"Director Zhang, you don't need to reshoot this last part again, right?"
At this time, the assistant director asked.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened!
The staff, including those props and cameramen, also looked at the assistant director in disbelief, thinking to themselves, how could such a cold word be said with a body temperature of more than 30 degrees?
Now the weather in Ukraine is more than minus 20 degrees!
Jiang Bai couldn't wait to rush up and cover his mouth!
Director Zhang hasn't said anything yet, what are you looking at here?
You can wear a big padded jacket and big gloves to watch us shoot, but we have to wear costumes and freeze!
But fortunately, Zhang Yi didn't plan to shoot it a second time, and the performance of several people in the last scene was perfect.
And now it's snowing heavily, the dense snowflakes block a lot of shots, and the shooting is also hazy, and the actors don't sneeze in the process, and their voices don't tremble, which is enough.
"No, that's just right now." Zhang Yi waved his hand after speaking: "Everyone pack up their things, let's go back to the hotel first!" ”
"Dehua, Ziyi, and Xiao Jiang, hurry up and put on your coat, and after you go back to the hotel, you can take a good rest and take a hot shower."
When the words fell, the personal assistants who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly rushed up with their coats, and Su Rou patted the snow off Jiang Bai's body in distress.
However, due to the fact that there is too much snow, in addition to the surface of the snow, there is also some snow that has seeped into the clothes, and if you just put on a coat like this, I am afraid that when you get on the bus, the snow will melt and it will be even more uncomfortable.
So Jiang Bai first took off the costume on his body and threw it to the staff on the side, and then put on the coat with the help of Su Rou.
Back in the car, Jiang Bai felt fine, but his exposed skin was a little cold, but Liu Dehua and Zhang Ziyi had already shrunk into a ball, and they couldn't stop swinging.
"Brother Jiang, drink some hot water, warm up first." Su Rou opened the water cup and poured out some of the hot tea and served it to Jiang Bai.
"Hmm."
Jiang Bai took it and took a sip, feeling much more comfortable on his body.
Then the car drove back to the hotel first, and the rest of the director and staff had other vehicles.
After all, there are only seven seats in the commercial car, one driver plus three actors, and three assistants are full.
After returning to the hotel, Jiang Bai immediately took a hot bath and lay on the bed beautifully.
Recall the end of the previous ambush on all sides.
"Although Director Zhang's artistic attainments are not bad, it is still difficult to jump out of this strange circle, even if Jiang Zhutou finally killed his little sister, but he was still too entangled in the love of his children, and he killed his most beloved people, but let them go in the end......"
"Alas, my movies will definitely not be filmed like this in the future, the rivers and lakes are just fighting and killing, and the sophistication of human feelings is just a means to become stronger and gain power and increase wealth."
Jiang Bai sighed: "But this film has been filmed, although it is a bit sloppy in many places, but in the end, the box office should not be much worse, after all, the director of this movie is Zhang Yimou, and everyone is still willing to buy it." ”
After the ambush filming was completed, Zhang Yi decided to stay here for a few days, let everyone go out for a spin, and then chartered a plane back to China.
After going back, Zhang Yi held a finale banquet and invited everyone to have a meal.
"The rivers and lakes are far away, I hope we can have more opportunities for cooperation in the future, and I also hope that everyone will have a smooth and smooth sail on the road in the future."
After Zhang Yi finished speaking, everyone raised their glasses and drank the wine in the glass, and then left.
Early the next morning, after Jiang Bai finished exercising, he thought about what arrangements to make today, whether to go to the company or lie down at home for a few days.
But just as he was thinking about it, the phone suddenly rang.
"Hey, Brother Jiang, I'm at your door, help me open the door."
It was Wang Baoqiang's voice.
When he opened the door, he saw Wang Baoqiang standing in the doorway, with his trademark bright smile on his face, and a large snakeskin bag in his hand, full of unknown contents.
"Brother Jiang, good morning, have you had breakfast?"
"I didn't eat it."
"That's right, I brought you tofu brain and fried dough sticks, you can eat them while they're hot."
Saying that, Wang Baoqiang picked up the bag he was carrying in his other hand and dangled it in front of Jiang Bai's eyes.
Help Wang Baoqiang carry another snakeskin bag to the yard and put it against the wall, while Wang Baoqiang went to the kitchen and took the dishes, chopsticks and spoons into the room.
Place the bag of tofu brain over the bowl.
"Brother Jiang, come on, wait a minute, the tofu brain won't taste good, and I specially asked you for some chili peppers."
Jiang Bai sat back at the table and stirred the tofu brain with a spoon while asking, "Baoqiang, why are you here?" This early in the morning, and what's in that bag outside? It's really heavy. ”
Wang Baoqiang crossed his hands on the table, showing two rows of big white teeth, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, Brother Jiang, I just heard that you are back, so I came to see you, the bag outside is potatoes, and we grow them in our hometown."
I wanted to bring it to you for a long time, but it wasn't filming before, so I didn't bother to go back, and then you weren't in Yanjing, so I couldn't send it to you. ”
"Well, Baoqiang, thank you, you have a heart, it must be inconvenient to bring such heavy potatoes, right?"
"It's okay, this year I came to take a fellow's car, he sells vegetables, often runs back and forth, just let him bring me over, I came to taxi today, it's very convenient."
Jiang Bai couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, although Wang Baoqiang has now rented a house in the city, but it will cost dozens of dollars to take a taxi.
"You have enough money for a taxi to buy such a bag of potatoes."
"The taxi money is the taxi money, and the potatoes are potatoes, the main thing is to let Brother Jiang you also taste the potatoes grown by our hometown, these are all eaten by ourselves, no medicine, and they are very green."
Jiang Bai nodded, many of the vegetables sold in the vegetable market now are medicated, but it is definitely safe for ordinary rural people to eat by themselves.
While talking about Jiang Bai, he ate the tofu brain that Wang Baoqiang specially brought.
"Baoqiang, do you have any arrangements next? Did Lao Zhao find you some other scenes to film? ”
"There are a few supporting roles, but they are all in Yanjing, so you don't have to run around."
"That's okay."
Seeing that Jiang Bai finished breakfast, Wang Baoqiang said while cleaning up: "By the way, Brother Jiang, there is one more thing I want to tell you this time, during the time when you were filming in Ukraine, the movie of Director Feng that we worked together was released, and it has just been released recently."
However, when it was taken for approval at that time, due to the problem of the finale, it could not be released in the mainland because it had not been reviewed, so Director Feng found Wang Shuo to help at that time, but Wang Shuo changed five words, and finally passed the review. ”
Jiang Bai couldn't help but be a little curious: "Which five words?" ”
