Chapter 32: Martial Fingers
After the two returned to the house, everyone was drinking tea and chatting, even Qing'er, the little girl, was no longer a troublemaker, joking with Mo Yanqing, since going to work, Qing'er was completely 'broken' by Xue Jiao.
Timon La Wang Lung sat down next to him and told him that the crew would restart the day after tomorrow and let him continue to work in the crew.
In addition to Wang Long, there are eight extras, but Ding Man told him that Wang Long, who returns to the crew this time, will no longer continue to play the role of extras, but will be assigned two positions to him, one is Si Wensheng's full-time stand-in, and the other is his partner Shen Jian's work as a martial arts instructor.
Hearing that Ding Man reassigned him the task, he could understand the martial arts instructor, after all, he was born in martial arts, but he was a little puzzled to be a full-time stand-in for Si Wensheng.
Wang Lung sent Yan Ming an inquiring look.
Originally, Wensheng had a stuntman, but there was a bit of a gap between the other party and Wensheng's body shape, if the audience was harsh, it would be easy for people to see that the stand-in was acting, which would have a bad impact on the whole film. ”
Speaking of this, Yan Ming saw Wang Lung nodding, and he felt that the other party could understand and explain better.
"This time, I chose you to be Wensheng's stand-in thanks to the report called Ha Lu Hale, now carefully compare the backs of you and Wensheng, basically there is no difference, I know that you didn't come to work in the crew to be famous, so I wronged you to be a stand-in for Wensheng. As for the work of martial arts instructor, I think Shen Jian would like you to help him come up with advice!" Yan Ming put down the teacup in his hand and said to Wang Lung with a smile.
"Ha Lu Ha Le?"
Wang Lung was stunned, to be honest, although he had rectified the other party yesterday, he had forgotten it all now.
"I rely on, okay, I don't care if I'm wronged or not, anyway, I have nothing to do, just eat under your Yan Dao's hands, as long as Yan Dao doesn't annoy me. ”
The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and everyone drank tea together and went home.
During this period, Yan Ming once again invited Xue Jiao and Qing'er to play a role in the crew, and even Mo Yanqing and Sister Lu went into battle to persuade them, but this time they were also rejected by Wang Lung.
Not for anything else, Wang Lung just wanted Xue Jiao and Qing'er to be ordinary people, and Xue Jiao and Qing'er also agreed with Wang Lung's statement, seeing that everyone's persuasion was unsuccessful, Yan Ming also stopped this idea.
The next day, Wang Lung was still resting, and Xue Jiao and Qing'er took a few days off because of the reported incident, so they did not ask for leave to accompany Wang Lung again.
However, Wang Lung was not idle, although Sister Tian called early in the morning to ask Wang Lung to go to the provincial hospital, but Wang Lung directly refused, Wang Lung was not afraid that he had nothing to teach them, but was afraid that he would be starved if he went a few more times.
Those old guys don't want to die when they learn things, Wang Lung doesn't want to suffer anymore, Wang Lung told Sister Tian to let those professors first let them understand what they taught yesterday, anyway, they still have a few months in Jinan, and they are not in a hurry.
After sending Sister Tian away, Wang Lung went directly to the automobile world in the west of Jinan.
I got my driver's license from Sister Lu yesterday, although I don't want to buy a car for the time being, but it's always okay to see it, anyway, Wang Lung has a day to waste, and he has walked around the automobile world.
Although Wang Lung has no intention of buying a car, but when looking at the car, there are indeed a few stores that encourage Wang Lung to almost pay for it.
The boring holiday ended, the crew restarted, and Wang Lung soon entered the role. Since the scenes of the extras have been filmed, the filming progress of the team composed of professional actors is very fast.
After the restart, there were a lot of martial arts scenes.
As a new martial arts instructor, Wang Long mainly cooperated with Shen Jian's work at the beginning, occasionally putting forward his own opinions.
But Wang Long's martial arts moves were recognized by all the actors, and they felt that the martial arts movements designed by Wang Long were very coherent and comfortable, and as Wang Lung proposed more martial arts designs, the roles of Shen Jian and Wang Lung were naturally reversed.
However, Shen Jian did not have any complaints, on the contrary, he welcomed it very much, because Wang Long's idea was more of a study and observation for him as a non-professional martial arts practitioner, which greatly improved his work ability.
Wang Lung is not omnipotent, because he can't design light martial arts movements, in Wang Lung's words, he doesn't think that there is such a thing as light gong, and the saying of light gong is just a fabrication, a beautiful conjecture of human beings.
No one had ever seen Wang Lung make a move, and even Mo Yanqing fantasized that there must be such a thing as light work, and everyone was full of doubts and asked expressions hoping that Wang Lung could give them a reasonable explanation.
Wang Lung was very helpless, and felt that it was better to explain more than to do it first and let everyone see it.
Wang Lung said his thoughts, which made all the crew respond with warm applause, and they can see that the real "flying on the water, floating on the grass" This legendary light skill is not something that anyone can have.
In order to perform the so-called light skills for the crew actors, Wang Lung made a request to the director.
That is to temporarily expel the reporters from the sidelines, and everyone is not allowed to spread the word.
Yan Ming was very cooperative with Wang Lung's requirements, because Wang Lung needed too much space to perform, and even if he was hidden, it was impossible to hide from reporters outside the venue.
Performing "light work" live in front of a group of gossip reporters, although it is beneficial to the crew, this news can definitely shock a large number of people, and it also goes against Wang Long's original intention of coming to the crew, and Yan Ming also said that the people in the crew will never spread it.
A few days ago, Qing'er used to perform "light work" in order to collect medicine for Mu Ning, but at that time, she started in the crew, although the speed was very fast, so everyone couldn't really understand what "light work" was, and there was no rumor.
Wang Long is still very relieved about the strict guarantee, after all, as a well-known director, keeping his word is his iron rice bowl. As for what method Yan Ming used to drive away reporters, that was Yan Ming's business, and he couldn't ask.
In order to let everyone see clearly, Wang Lung did not "take off" at the filming site, Wang Lung told everyone that he would run from the opposite hill to the direction of the crew, so that everyone could pay attention to it.
Today's weather is very good, and the visibility is very far, even on the filming site of the crew, you can see the big trees on the opposite hill, although it looks relatively short, but it is still relatively clear.
After Wang Lung left, Yan Ming let the camera work all the time to prepare for the scene of Wang Long's performance, and everyone remained silent about Yan Ming's decision.
In the eyes of everyone in the crew, a person appeared on the opposite hill, waved his hand to the crew and disappeared from everyone's sight.
When Wang Lung's figure reappeared, he was already between the hill and the open space of the crew.
Wang Lung was really "flying", and everyone couldn't see his movement of striding and running, his body just leaned forward. The whole crew was silent, everyone grew their mouths, and almost in the blink of an eye, Wang Lung had already rushed to the sky above the crew, Wang Lung tapped the branch with his foot and followed a sideways rotation and fell directly down the trunk.
When Wang Lung walked back to the crew, everyone still maintained a stunned expression, and Wang Lung coughed helplessly to divert everyone's attention.
After everyone came back to their senses, applause rang out in the sky, and Wang Lung stretched out his hand to suppress everyone's excitement.
Explain that this is the light work that everyone can see, taking off on the spot is superman, and to achieve this effect, it is necessary to run long distances, with the help of air resistance and stepping on each other's feet in the air to achieve accelerated flight.
If you can both fight and fly according to the requirements of movie shooting, it is done by the gods, and a normal person who practices martial arts cannot do that kind of action.
Wang Lung said to show the so-called flying and martial arts scenes in the movie again, so that everyone can see if it can be realized. Everyone welcomes Wang Lung's second performance, how can this kind of live-action light performance be enough at one time.
This time Wang Lung took a sword when he left, and when Wang Lung ran to the opposite hill again, Yan Ming asked all the cameramen if they had saved the picture just now? After receiving an affirmative answer, Yan Ming smiled treacherously.
If Wang Lung knew how much influence his performance would bring him in the future, it is estimated that he would regret hitting the wall.
Wang Lung took off on the opposite side again, and everything during the period was the same as the first time, except that when Wang Lung was almost over the crew and the branch that Wang Lung stepped on with his foot for the first time, Wang Lung did not repeat the action just now, but waved the sword in his hand, and everyone saw Wang Lung fall straight from mid-air.
Seeing Wang Lung fall in a straight line, all the people in the crew were shocked into a cold sweat, it was too high, close to twenty meters from the ground, if an ordinary person fell from such a high distance, he would not die and be crippled.
Wang Lung's performance did not worry the crew too much, and he lightly tapped his left foot on the surface of his right foot as he fell rapidly, buffering the speed of his fall.
With several quick taps of his feet in a row, Wang Lung stood firm at the moment he landed.
After Wang Lung landed, everyone in the crew ran over and asked Wang Lung with concern if he was injured. For everyone's concern, Wang Lung smiled in return, so that everyone does not have to worry.
Wang Lung threw the sword in his hand to Ding Man and explained to everyone how the first and second performances were different.
In Wang Long's understanding, this is not called light work, but a stepping or stepping running formed after increasing the speed to a certain extreme.
If an ordinary person has a suitable downhill route, it is not a problem to tread water for dozens of meters on the premise of increasing his speed, but he cannot take a large step, and it must be a small step.
If the use of martial arts in the air running will break the inertia of running, there will be a situation just now and fall directly to the ground, so "light gong" and martial arts action can not be combined, the so-called "light gong" can only be used for running, running or chasing, if you want to fight, you can only stop and fight on the ground.
After watching Wang Lung's performance and hearing his explanation, everyone was relieved, whether there is light skill in this world, everyone has a rule in their hearts.
Wang Lung couldn't change other people's minds, but he used his actions to change the crew's original intention of combining light skills and martial arts movements.
After the research of the director team, it was decided to adopt Wang Long's opinion, completely separating martial arts from light skills, and there was no explanation for the specific reasons, and Wang Lung's decision was completely unconditionally implemented.
If Wang Lung knew that everything he did was recorded, Wang Lung would definitely sigh that he was unladylike.
After Wang Long's improved light skills and martial arts design, the shooting effect was not discounted in any way, on the contrary, after Wang Long's practice, everyone felt that this was the real martial arts scene.
Since Wang Long joined the film crew, he has made a great contribution to the filming of the entire crew, especially the martial arts scenes designed by him, whether it is a two-person battle or a group battle, as a bystander, he basically can't find fault.
When the two are fighting, all the actions are done in one go, and there is no need to switch the picture through editing, no matter what shooting angle, the battle scene is very beautiful.
Filming the group battle scene is the biggest headache for every crew, because the picture will focus on the main actors, and the other people who cooperate with the performance have nothing to show off, and basically deal with things with weapons.
But the martial arts effect designed by Wang Lung is simply beautiful, and the personnel who cooperate with the performance are not just decorations, but also have everything in battle, sneak attack, rescue, assistance, and siege.
This kind of design effect can reflect the skills of the leading actors, and it is also better to mobilize the enthusiasm of the supporting actors.
After a period of filming, the crew will temporarily edit part of it and hand it over to the investor for review, and after the review will continue to shoot according to the original plan, if the investor has an idea, everyone will sit together and discuss new shooting ideas.
However, the crew of "Drifting Snow" did not encounter this kind of difficulty, and when Yan Ming handed over part of the editing to the investor, all the representatives of the investor were dazzled and said that they would continue to shoot according to the established route.
And the investor gave Yan Ming another task, which was to completely pull Wang Long into the crew and prevent him from being a temporary worker.
When Yan Ming told Wang Long the investor's idea, the filming of the crew of "Snow in the Rivers and Lakes" in Jinan had been completed.
Tomorrow, the entire crew will go to the northwest. However, Wang Lung had to stay in Jinan for a year before he could leave, and he told his situation, and in desperation, Wang Lung declined Yan Ming's kindness and asked him to thank the investors for their trust.
This incident made Yan Ming very difficult, if there was no martial arts scene designed by Wang Long in the next shooting, the entire "Drifting Snow" would become a nondescript film, and Yan Ming could see the bleak scenes of the film without waiting for the release.
Regarding Wang Long's insistence, Yan Ming did not make the most difficult decision, and he needed to negotiate with the investor.
This is the biggest problem that the whole crew is facing now, it turns out that if Wang Lung was not involved, everyone could break up happily, but now it can't.
If Wang Lung can't accompany the crew to finish filming the show, how big the impact will be, he knows very well in his heart that Yan Ming will postpone the start of the entire crew, and everyone will be on standby until the investor's opinion comes out.
