Chapter 121: Infernal Affairs Boot Up

Liu Weiqiang went to see off Lin Yu and Li Hong, and in less than seven days, Liu Weiqiang chose an auspicious day and began to officially start work.

Now the big names who have signed the contract have also rushed to the crew, and these veteran superstars with a net worth of N billion in Xiangjiang have gathered together, and it is inevitable to exchange feelings with each other.

With Boss Zeng as the host, he invited these people to have a big meal, which can be called the joy of the guests and hosts.

During this period, I couldn't help but mention that Liu Weiqiang was red-eyed for a certain amateur boy, and Liu Weiqiang was embarrassed.

He was on the top before, but now that he is facing these people, this kind of thing is said in public, how can he not be embarrassed?

But Liang Chaowei didn't have any trouble about it, he just smiled casually when he heard it, and then instigated Liu Weiqiang to release the video for everyone to see, who is the person who makes Liu Weiqiang unforgettable.

However, this idea also fulfilled Liu Weiqiang's intention, and he also intended to show these people how this Chen Yongren should be interpreted, and he couldn't tell when he made a movie.

So I simply took out the audition performance of the forest fish and showed it to these people.

This audition, which lasted for more than 40 minutes, lasted almost a second, spanned the entire movie, and performed almost all the famous scenes.

Not only did this audition length silence these people, but the anti-heaven operation of not glancing at the script at all during the Lin Yu period was also a fool to look at these people.

"This kid ......" Zeng Zhiwei can be regarded as well-informed, but Lin Yu's operation of casually ordering the question and reciting the entire script still stunned him.

"Did he really memorize the whole script?"

"It's not a show."

Everyone looked at each other, judging from their so-called 'dedication', when they arrived on the set, they memorized all the lines all day until they were familiar with it, and they didn't need to bring an extra script to the scene, which was considered very dedicated.

This kind of script doesn't need to be read at a glance, just memorize the whole book, one word is good, the most terrible thing is that this kid didn't get paid and was signed, he just looked at it on the plane and came to audition!

This kind of professionalism really makes people don't know what to say.

The later video silenced all these big names, especially Liang Chaowei.

After watching this video, the meal was not delicious, and these big brothers were silent for more than ten minutes, and some of them had already started to read the script in their hands.

"Is that what Infernal Affairs means?" Huang Qiushen muttered, everyone was stupid, and couldn't help but look at Liu Weiqiang and Mai Zhaohui, "You guys are very ambitious." ”

The faces of everyone present changed, they were really superficial and underestimated the show.

Just by reading this script before, they already felt that this script was very well written, otherwise how could they easily get all these people together?

But after watching this audition, these people were silenced by Qi Quangan, no wonder this Liu Weiqiang was red-eyed, and he didn't hesitate to offend himself These big names also want to use this kid, the feelings are so reasonable!

If they're directors, they'll want to use them too!

This kid's understanding of Infernal Affairs is simply against the sky, this is the essence of this movie!

Liang Chaowei was embarrassed for a while, and finally nodded, "I'm really inferior to him." ”

The entire people at the dinner table all looked at Liang Chaowei, looked at him with a calm face, and turned their eyes away.

"Wow, this kid." Andy Lau curled the corners of his lips, "That's why we robbed this kid's play, and the future is immeasurable." ”

"There is a shortage of people in my company......

Zeng Zhiwei and the others couldn't help but look at Andy Lau again, "Wow, Andy, your abacus is very good, this kid looks good, this foundation is so perverted, he is indeed a superstar seed." ”

These people got together and sighed with emotion, and when they came to Xiangjiang, these big names were determined to be superstars, so this person would have to be a superstar if he was not a superstar in the future.

"I really can't perform." After thinking seriously for a while, Liang Chaowei added seriously, pointing to the things in this audition, frowning and frowning, "It's a little difficult for me, but I probably understand what he means, and I will work hard." ”

Liu Weiqiang breathed a sigh of relief, these people probably need to feel the context, otherwise if they come to shoot this Infernal Affairs with the idea that these people have made a bad police movie, then he really can't say it.

Liang Chaowei is willing to say this, he really has nothing to say, after all, this is not entirely to blame for his ......, he is not worried that Liang Chaowei will not work in the literary drama part, but the martial arts part is embarrassing for him.

There is a gap in the image, which is a thing that cannot be helped.

A group of people discussed for a while, mostly discussing this forest fish, and then it became a discussion of this drama, and the taste of a meal completely changed, from exchanging feelings to working.

The last group of big names got together, and on this idea of Infernal Affairs, while listening to Mai Zhaohui and Liu Weiqiang explain the core of this play to them, they figured it out by themselves.

Probably thinking about it, only Andy Lau frowned very hard.

In these scenes, there is really no reason why he can't play these two flavors, if Liang Chaowei can also use his image as an excuse, it shows that his fierce side is really difficult to show.

And what about him? The perfect image of a bad guy with a glorious top, and the black side of the person behind it, there is no reason why it can't be played, right?

It's just that Andy Lau has been honing his acting skills very hard over the years, but his talent in this profession is not full, and no matter how hard he works so far, it can only be said that he is more than mature, and he is extremely insufficient.

And that step, I don't know if I can take it in this life.

But he would frown very seriously, after all, he is really a serious person.

Now that he is aware of this problem today, there is no reason why he should not think hard in this direction.

"Morphological problems!" Andy Lau clapped his hands, and it suddenly dawned on him, "If there is anything that needs to be improved in my image, it is the form, since it is a glorious and indisputable surface image, then it must have the aura of a soldier standing like a pine and shaped like the wind." ”

"And we are in the form of a normal police movie, anyone can do it, but I can't, that will make my body a little loose."

Liu Weiqiang glanced at Andy Lau and the bigwigs around him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Who dares to say that these people gathered around him are not the most elite group in Xiangjiang movies?

These people are indisputable in terms of morality and ability!

"Let's get ready, and we'll start it the day after tomorrow." Liu Weiqiang didn't want to argue anymore, but got up and said, "I'm tired today, let's go back and rest!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

These big names went back to live in the hotel, but after watching this audition today, their hearts were churning, where can they still sleep?

It's not that they, the big names, are stimulated by the performance art level of a junior, but that now when they see that the standard of Infernal Affairs is so high, why don't they work hard?

Don't they want to leave a name in history and create a top-level Xiangjiang police and gangster film myth?

Of course I do.

So, at night, these big names went to the door in private, chatted and chatted, and they actually talked until late at night one night, and then fell asleep.

The day after tomorrow, the assistant selected the address, chartered the site, and sent all the machines to the designated place by truck, and these people made a special car and chartered three buses, and went straight to a famous scenic spot in Xiangjiang, Sha Tin Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple!

When I arrived here, it was already afternoon, this place was extremely empty, according to a whole green mountain, whether it was the relaxation of the air or the Shatin Ten Thousand Buddha Temple, which covers a huge area here, the entire crew of two or three hundred people was thrown here, but it was so small that it seemed to be just a handful of black sesame seeds, sprinkled on the earth.

There was a bit of a noisy mood before, but when I got here, it became quiet.

Liu Weiqiang restrained his emotions for a while, looked at those big coffees looking around, and felt a little emotional in his heart about the beauty of this scene.

Opening with this kind of place with a Buddhist flavor is really in line with the "Infernal Hell", and this ironic opening cannot be more meaningful.

Looking at Liu Weiqiang and Mai Zhaohui's slightly tired and red eyes, Andy Lau, including Zeng Zhiwei, couldn't help but sigh.

These two directors, that's really hard.

These two are so attentive, so how dare he not work hard?

However, it is not yet a boot.

In the afternoon, the main thing is to put up the sacrificial animals, support the statue of Guan Gong, light a few long incense sticks, and wait until three o'clock in the afternoon, as soon as the auspicious time arrives, led by directors Liu Weiqiang and Mai Zhaohui, leading a group of big coffee to come forward respectfully and respectfully to sacrifice Guan Gong, in order to start the machine!

When doing this kind of thing, no one dares to be so-so!

In the end, Liu Weiqiang stepped forward, slashed the pig's head with a knife, and shouted, "Turn on the machine!" ”

Even if the sacrificial ceremony is completed, of course, in this process, it is inevitable that many media reporters will be invited to take pictures and publicize it.

But after this start-up ceremony is over, I will wait for these people to go back, and the official shooting is not allowed to be seen.

After blasting away these media reporters, Liu Weiqiang led these celebrities to a Buddhist hall in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple in Shatin, led these people around, and said some precautions.

In fact, there is only one scene this afternoon, and it will not officially start filming at all, just to be auspicious and go through a process.

Moreover, many of the people present actually didn't have a role, especially Andy Lau and Liang Chaowei, who didn't appear in the first seven minutes of the movie!

But because today is the opening ceremony, they must have to show their faces.

At least a week later, they won't be on site, and they will be busy with whatever they need to do.

"Hasn't Chen Guanxi come yet?" Liu Weiqiang frowned, talked and laughed with several big names, and when he walked to the front of the hall, his eyes swept away, and he couldn't help frowning, facing the assistant on the side.

Yes, Chen Guanxi, who should play Liu Jianming when he was young, missed the appointment today, not that he won't come today, but that he was late and had something else busy, so he was delayed.

Liu Weiqiang doesn't mind, after all, this is not a lack of professional ethics at all, with the busyness of these big names, as long as he is not playing on both sides, he is completely acceptable, too common, isn't it?

It's these people who often travel all over the world, and it's common for the plane to be delayed.

Only today's first scene, it must be Chen Guanxi, so he took these big names around this Shatin Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, said some cold jokes, and asked Boss Zeng if he wanted to worship a tablet or something here.

As a result, from the opening ceremony to the present, the reporters and media are gone, they have been wandering around here for almost an hour, this is the afternoon, the weather is still hot, everyone is sweating, this person has not yet arrived!

"It's going to be over there!" The assistant was sweating profusely and hurriedly said.

Liu Weiqiang nodded.

But after waiting for more than ten minutes, with a pair of sunglasses, surrounded by a group of assistants, Chen Guanxi, who was holding an umbrella, arrived.

However, he was not a big supporter, and when he got closer, he hurriedly waved his hand and motioned for these assistants to retreat.

"The female monkey is vague." When he got closer, Chen Guanxi looked apologetic, hurriedly folded his hands, and said, "Bosses, I have made you wait for a long time, I was supposed to arrive at noon, but the plane was delayed for four hours." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a scene in the afternoon anyway, it's not a big deal, it's just that you missed the boot ceremony."

"Blame me, blame me."

After a burst of jokes, the atmosphere returned to harmony, Liu Weiqiang and Mak Zhaohui did not talk nonsense, and began to instruct the photographers to adjust the cameras, and the two geared up to shoot this first scene.

And Huang Sir, Andy Lau, Liang Chaowei and others, who have no role, are all behind Liu Weiqiang and watch the play together.

The two of them have been preparing for a full year since they got the script.

This time, you must use all your energy to become a god in one fell swoop!

"Pay attention to the field affairs and clear out irrelevant personnel."

"Is the makeup artist ready?"

"The gaffer lights up the hall."

"All the actors are in place, no."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Liu Weiqiang sat there with a walkie-talkie, and was conveying his orders through the loudspeakers around him.

With the tossing and turning of ten minutes before and after, all the preparations were in place, and a row of actors lined up in front of the main hall, facing Zeng Zhiwei,...... is the villain boss he plays, Han Chen.

This first scene is a long monologue by Han Chen, to be honest, this difficulty is actually very high, and the actor needs to memorize a long line in one breath, and he can't make a mistake.

But with the stimulation of the day before yesterday, this Zeng boss didn't take the domineering script today, as if he memorized this paragraph in the middle of the night last night.

Infernal Affairs, Scene I, Act I, 3.2.1...... action! ”

Liu Weiqiang shouted in a voice that was close to trembling.

In fact, at the beginning of Infernal Affairs, there is also a complicated scenery scene, which is very zen-like, suggesting that the whole movie is filmed with Buddhist elements as the starting point.

And this whole framing and picture composition seem to have a draft in Liu Weiqiang's heart, but now is not the time to shoot this, these can be made up again.

And as the camera shot on the back of Zeng Zhiwei's white sweatshirt that couldn't be simpler anymore, everyone's breathing was tight.

Infernal Affairs' shooting has begun!

Tentatively, there are 8,000 daily changes, and two chapters per day, each chapter is 4,000 words
