All the domestic scenes were filmed, and on March 1, all the crew flew to Bangkok, Thailand by charter flight.

Thailand was filmed in Bangkok's Chinatown, which is home to the largest Chinese community in Southeast Asia.

The location of the film has been done for a long time, and the local government and official institutions in Chinatown have shown great enthusiasm for the arrival of the [Detective Chinatown] crew.

Last year, a domestic [Thailand] exploded, which directly led to the development of the entire Thai tourism industry.

The Prime Minister of Thailand met with Xu Zheng and the crew of "Thai Embarrassment" at the Prime Minister's Office, thanked "Thai Embarrassment" for its promotion of Thai tourism, and welcomed more domestic directors to film in Thailand.

Statistics show that after the release of "Thai Embarrassment", more than 2.5 million domestic tourists visited Thailand during the Spring Festival, an increase of 3 times over the same period last year.

The publicity effect of a successful movie is terrifying.

Now the popularity of [Thai Embarrassment] has not passed, and the local official organization has given great convenience to the film crew.

No matter what they do, as long as the crew proposes it, they will find a way to cooperate.

This brings great convenience to the filming of the movie.

The plane landed, the crew checked into the hotel, everyone took a day off to familiarize themselves with the environment and climate, and the filming in Thailand officially started tomorrow.

It's not that the crew doesn't want everyone to rest more, filming movies in a different place, the entire crew of hundreds of people, the funds are burning frantically every day, and the shooting can't be delayed.

The entire filming of the movie "Detective Chinatown" was actually in several fixed locations in Bangkok's Chinatown, plus some road chase scenes.

The script reading has been carried out in China, and each actor has a certain understanding of the role he needs to play.

To be honest, although the movie [Detective Chinatown] is a logical comedy detective movie, it is still a comedy in the final analysis.

The characters of the main characters are very fixed, as long as they are played in accordance with the style of the characters, they will not be too bad.

The whole movie is simply the talented stammering teenager "Qin Feng" who failed the police academy and was sent to Thailand by his grandmother to find a distant cousin - known as the "No. 1 Detective in Chinatown", but in fact the "obscene" uncle's "Tang Ren" was distracted.

After not wanting to spend a night drinking, Tang Ren became a suspect in a bizarre murder case, and had to die with Qin Feng, they had to avoid police pursuit, gangster pursuit, and gang encirclement and suppression, while completing the tasks of finding the "lost gold", identifying the "real murderer", and "clearing the name" for themselves in just seven days.

The story is simple, but it should be filmed funny, logical and organized.

The first scene of the movie is still the scene of our protagonist Tang Ren.

Qin Feng came to Bangkok by plane, and Tang Ren, who had come to pick him up, was late. At this time, Tang Ren was playing mahjong.

The crew filmed Tang Ren's mahjong scene for the first time.

The camera gave Bao Qiang's face, at this time he played Tang Ren was wearing a blue plaid casual suit, with a large gold watch and circles of beads on his wrist, a Buddhist bead necklace around his neck, a cigarette in his mouth, and curly hair.

He was very happy to win a handful of hands and stretched out his hand to collect the money one by one.

The phone rang while he was stacking cards, and he picked it up and looked at it.

At this time, Mayou on both sides spoke, and a middle-aged aunt on one side asked, "What's wrong?" ”

On the other side was a middle-aged male voice: "Don't run away if you win!" ”

After hearing this, Tang Ren slapped his mobile phone on the table, "Run? ”

"I have a green dragon drinking water on my left, a white tiger flicking his tail on my right, sand in my pocket, wealth to my home, a tree behind me, and the God of Wealth to patronize.

I'm going to kill you and leave you alone. ”

After saying that, he took a puff on his cigarette and continued to fight.

"Cards!"

Bao Qiang's performance was very good, but Gu Wei was still a little dissatisfied, and he always felt that there were some shortcomings here.

Look at the shot just now, and look at the outfit of Baoqiang on the scene.

"Bao Qiang, when you spoke just now, your actions and tone can be more exaggerated, and the last line was changed to 'I'm going to kill you without leaving you naked~'"

Gu Wei stepped forward and looked at Bao Qiang and said.

Then he pointed to the aunt on the left side of the mahjong table

"After Bao Qiang said 'naked', you covered your mouth and gasped, and then Bao Qiang looked at her and said, 'You forget it'"

"Understood, Director." Bao Qiang thought about it and replied.

According to Gu Wei's request, this scene came again, this time Gu Wei felt much better, and Bao Qiang fully understood what Gu Wei meant. After the shooting is completed, the old rule is to do it again.

After filming the first scene of Bao Qiang, the crew came to the first scene that appeared in the movie - Songpa Workshop.

Filming two big supporting roles, a scene in which Huang Langden and Kun Tai appeared.

Chen He and Xiao Yan both changed their clothes and put on makeup, and took the group performance behind them to start filming.

Gu Wei walked over and looked at the outfits of the two.

"Makeup~" called the makeup artist over.

"Make Xiao Yan's hair and face shinier.

And this vest inside him, minus the underneath, to expose the belly. ”

The makeup artist hurriedly followed Gu Wei's request and beat Xiao Yan again.

Xiao Yan looked at his appearance and said to Gu Wei with a wry smile, "Director, this costume is too greasy." ”

Gu Wei smiled and said, "It's good to be greasy, the characteristic of this role is that it is greasy, and the more greasy it is, the more successful it is." ”

At this time, Chen He came up to the side, "Director, you also teach me, what do you say are the characteristics of my character Huang Langdon?" ”

Gu Wei thought for a while and said, "Cheap, and then very unlucky." ”

"And how am I supposed to behave like him, director?" Chen He asked.

"You just have to put on a show." After Gu Wei finished speaking, Chen He was speechless.

After instructing Xiao Zhen to modify his makeup, the filming of this scene began.

In the Songpa Workshop, Chen He and Xiao Yan each led a team of police officers, and when they met each other, the conversation between the two people also explained the relationship between Huang Langden and Kun Tai, as well as the position in the police force.

Because he didn't have Gu Wei's role, he didn't put on makeup, and he sat behind the camera, watching Chen He and Xiao Yan's performances.

may be because this is their first performance in the play, and the state of both of them does not meet Gu Wei's requirements.

Gu Wei is not in a hurry, the crew needs to run in, and the actors also need to run in, take your time and wait for everyone to enter the state, and the filming progress of the movie will be fast.

Repeating this scene over and over again, after coming over a few times, I obviously felt that Chen He and Xiao Yan were a little impetuous.

"Cards!"

"Stop, the actor rests."

Gu Wei found Chen He and Xiao Yan, "Don't worry, you two, let's shoot a few more times, take our time, and find out the state of the characters." When this state is found, the future shots will be easy to shoot. ”

Gu Wei comforted them.

Seeing NG so many times, the director not only didn't get angry, but also comforted them. The mood of the two also recovered.

After a while, the shooting continued.

The two of them still can't get by, but NG is not anxious, over and over again, everyone's shooting state is getting better and better.

"Cards! It's over. ”

The word 'passed' seemed to be a natural sound to everyone, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Zeng Li did not play, she was also on the scene with the group.

The director's requirements for the play are really strict. Zeng Li thought to himself when he saw today's shooting.
