In July, Hengdian.

"The King of Kung Fu" officially started filming.

The main production team of this film is from the United States, but in order to restore the most original kung fu movie, most of the shooting locations were selected in China.

The filming location is mainly in Hengdian, Huaxia, and some special locations are in, such as the Gobi Desert, Jiuzhaigou, Xianju Waterfall, Wuyi Mountain, Anji's Bamboo Sea, and Yongkang Fangyan's Plum Blossom Circle.

It is planned to shoot in Hengdian Film and Television City Qinwang Palace, Qingming Shanghe Tu, Guangzhou Street, Hong Kong Street and other scenic spots for more than three months.

Liu Yifei came to Hengdian again, and after getting off the bus from Dongyang, on the way to Hengdian, when passing the viaduct on the outskirts of the city, she was in a trance for a while.

In my mind, I seem to recall the boy who took his own wanton drag racing.

Counting the days, since I met Sun Yi when I was filming "The Condor Heroes" in Hengdian, it has been more than 2 years now.

Thinking of this, the corners of Liu Yifei's mouth couldn't help but show a smile.

But then he seemed to remember something, pursed his lips, and was a little angry.

Sun Yi, a bad guy, hasn't contacted her for a long time.

Didn't he win the Best Director at Cannes?

A short film.

What's so bullish about it.

Besides, I didn't know why I didn't congratulate him at the first time.

So stingy what to do.

Liu Yifei thinks so.

She didn't know that Sun Yi had just returned to China after traveling half the world, and was pulled up the mountain by Sister Yu the next day to be the male protagonist of the village.

By the time I knew that Sun Yi had won the award, many days had passed.

Although she was very happy for Sun Yi, she was embarrassed to congratulate her again.

It's like a good friend's birthday, I forgot it, and when everyone else is done, I remember it, how to congratulate me at this time.

That's embarrassing.

Besides, if the girl's reserve and independence are gone, how can you take the initiative to contact him.

Sun Yi is a big man, and he shouldn't take the initiative to share it with her when he won such a big award at the Cannes International Film Festival.

There is no her in the eyes at all.

Liu Yifei straightened things out and came to a conclusion.

Since there is nothing wrong with him, then the fault must be Sun Yi.

Last time, I did such a shameful thing to myself in the martial arts school, I actually patted my ass and left, and the next time I see him, I must see him.

The fairy sister's pretty face tightened, and she made up her mind again.

"Sissi, what's wrong with you, don't be nervous, Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, the two big brothers, haven't you met before, they are very good to you, don't worry."

Liu Yifei, who was doing expression management, immediately came back to her senses, her face was a little red, and she hurriedly replied:

"Uh-huh, Mom, it's okay."

"Okay, let's get ready, we'll be there right away when we get off the bridge."

"Okay, Mom."

Liu Yifei's mother and daughter came a day in advance, and tomorrow is the day when the film will start, today is an early report by the actors, and the staff of the production team said that Jianli and Li Lianjie both arrived tonight, and no one dared to play a big name, which was later than these two bigwigs.

Rest for one night and start the next day.

The director is an American, and there is definitely no such thing as worshipping God when he turns on the camera.

There are not many scenes on the first day, and they are all very simple, and they are generally used by the actors.

But in the next few days, it was like this, starting at 9 o'clock in the morning, and finishing at 5 o'clock in the evening when there was no night scene, Liu Yifei was quite surprised, and the first time I felt that filming was like going to work.

The only thing that was a little uncomfortable was that the weather was too hot, and I had to wear thick costumes and protective devices to hang Weiya in the sky.

Fortunately, she had trained in a martial arts school before, and a few days ago, her role was basically used as a background board, otherwise she might really be unbearable.

For the role, when she first heard that she was going to play in "The King of Kung Fu", the script she heard was changed from "Journey to the West", and she initially thought that she was going to play a role like the White Bone Spirit or the Seven Fairies.

When the script arrived, I realized that it was such a character of the revenge daughter of secondary creation.

She has her own understanding of this character, and she has studied it very deeply, such as Jin Yanzi's background, why her parents were killed, what kind of blood feud she had, and so on.

There was no drama that morning, and the crew was setting up a new scene, and director Rob Minkoff suddenly called her over and said that he wanted to talk to her.

Liu Yifei readily agreed.

"Good morning, Crystal, you look good today."

"Thank you, Director, and so are you."

"Okay, I want to talk to you about your role today, how about it, do you have any ideas for me?"

Liu Yifei also felt that eighty percent was about the role at first, so she was very well prepared.

She simply began to introduce Rob Minkoff to her understanding of the role.

Minkov nodded incessantly as he listened.

seems to agree with Liu Yifei's point of view very much, but in fact, he didn't listen to it at all.

In his concept, although this movie is a Chinese kung fu movie, to put it bluntly, in Hollywood, this is a medium-cost commercial production, the heroine or something, is the role of a vase, if it weren't for the investment on Huaxia's side, he would be ready to use a Hollywood actress.

Therefore, as long as the actress is beautiful enough and the action is beautiful enough, it is okay for American fans to watch it cool, as for acting, the vast majority of American fans will not pay attention to the acting skills of an Asian woman, this film is a popcorn movie that caters to the American market.

And he doesn't need to be responsible for the Chinese market, so it doesn't matter, take a trip, feel the charm of the mysterious Orient, and by the way, make a little money, he is not fragrant.

"OK, OK, How ystal, your performance was completely beyond my expectations, it was great, and I am very satisfied."

Liu Yifei was praised by this kind of international director for the first time, and she has seen a lot of winds and waves, and she is also very excited.

His face was slightly red, and he replied with some embarrassment:

"Thanks, Director, this is what I should do."

“Very Good。 But, Crystal, I'm going to talk to you, for this movie, I decided to temporarily add some interactive scenes between you and the male lead, I don't know what you think? ”

"Director? What are the specific interactive scenes? ”

"Well, at the moment I'm planning to have some kiss scenes."

Hearing this, Liu Yifei didn't have time to think deeply, and immediately blurted out consciously:

"Oh no, director, I don't think I can accept it, and it wasn't stated in the previous actor's contract."

"Oh, my dear Crystal, you're an actor, it's all for the sake of the movie, for the sake of the art, I'm talking to you this time, and I'm just informing you, of course, for the sake of fairness, I'll give you a period of time to think about it, how about a week, what a handsome young man our male protagonist Mike is, you should feel honored."

Although Minkov said this with a smile on his face, his tone was full of meaning that could not be refused.

Only by adding some such scenes can American fans be more interested, and as long as they are interested, they are willing to pay for tickets.

A poor boy from a humble background in the United States came to China and directly became the chosen son, not only learned a good kung fu, but also easily hugged the beauty, what an exciting story.

"But the director."

Liu Yifei frowned and wanted to continue explaining, but was interrupted by Minkoff's impatient wave.

"Crystal, don't say any more, you're a smart girl, you should understand what I mean, go back and think about it, I want to hear good news from you."

Liu Yifei's brain seemed to be blank, and she didn't know how to get out of the director's office, leaning helplessly against the wall, her lips were tightly pursed, and the tears of grievance kept rolling in her eyes.
