As a Hong Kong director, he is definitely no stranger to Xingye, the double Monday of the year, Stephen Chow and Chow Yun-fat and Jackie Chan are three points in the world, which is a golden sign of Hong Kong films. In the eighties and nineties, the Chinese film market www.biquge.info developed rapidly, since the mainland knocked on the door of the film market with a "Shaolin Temple", Chinese films began to develop with each passing day, and Hong Kong filmmakers with their convenience in absorbing foreign culture, walking in the forefront of the times, successfully met the entertainment needs of the mainland market at that time with countless excellent commercial films, and cultivated a large number of audience bases. As an iconic figure of the times, Xing Ye can be said to have accompanied the growth of a generation and is the idol of countless post-80s and 90s.

Stephen Chow became famous for his nonsensical movies from the beginning, and the audience's impression of him also stayed on the nonsensical roles in the movie, which conflicted with Stephen Chow's movie concept, he said more than once that what he filmed was a tragedy, mainly wanting to show the joys and sorrows of the little people in ordinary life, and the audience often remembered the funny scenes in the movie, therefore, Stephen Chow in the early stage also mistakenly thought that he made movies to make the audience happy, but later found out that this was not the case. Therefore, starting from "The King of Comedy" in 1999, Stephen Chow began to deliberately change his style, carefully showing his true self to the audience through the camera, and then to "Kung Fu" and "Yangtze River No. 7", Stephen Chow began to slowly shift from the front of the stage to behind the scenes, and began to tell the story with the camera.

Deng Weien has seen countless actors imitate Stephen Chow, most of them with exaggerated body movements and facial expressions, as well as the iconic laughter, but they are all in shape. Deng Weien has seen Stephen Chow a few times in private, and he knows that Stephen Chow's appearance in life is similar to the characters in the movie. Cao Ping's performance just now, the body movements and facial expressions were also exaggerated, but Deng Weien didn't recognize it at the first time, he silently recalled that Cao Ping had just performed, but found that under the witty expression, there was a melancholy temperament hidden. A tremor of excitement flashed on Deng Weien's body, this is Stephen Chow's style in the later period, Cao Ping is not blindly imitating Stephen Chow's movements, there is a trace of the essence of the clown performance style of the star master laughing and crying!

It is often said that acting is impossible to learn, everyone has their own way of acting, and even if they are generally similar, the subtleties are very different. Deng Weien has seen many similar actors imitating Stephen Chow, but that is not Stephen Chow, since the star retreated behind the scenes, Deng Weien has sighed many times that he will never have the opportunity to see Zhou's performance in the future, and future generations are just imitating even if they think about it, but today, Cao Ping's performance surprised Deng Weien, and when Deng Weien looked at Cao Ping again, there was naturally a trace of kindness in his eyes.

Cao Ping doesn't understand the doorway here, but it's a little strange, why did this Director Deng suddenly become a lot more affectionate to himself?

Director Deng called Cao Ping and asked, "Come here, have you ever studied acting before?"

Cao Ping scratched his head and said, "No, I haven't been here for a long time." ”

Deng Weien asked again: "Then what acting experience do you have before?"

Cao Ping said: "I used to be a martial artist for the male Feng Shaofeng in the crew of "King Lanling". ”

Deng Weien was still waiting for Cao Ping to continue, but saw Cao Ping close his mouth and asked, "Gone?"

Cao Ping nodded, Deng Weien frowned and said, "I haven't studied acting professionally, and I don't have formal acting experience, so how did you do the performance just now?"

Cao Ping asked suspiciously: "How did you do it?"

Deng Weien did not delve into this question, and asked again: "You said that you have been a martial artist, so have you studied martial arts?"

Cao Ping nodded and said, "I have taught the boxing technique since childhood. ”

Deng Weien opened the huge water cup, blew the foam on the water, and said, "Then you can practice for a while! ”

Cao Ping took two steps back and practiced a three-style fist and palm with a change of footwork in the dragon and phoenix, which was a relatively fancy move in his nine-move loose hand. Deng Weien didn't understand this, he just watched Cao Ping's tiger and tiger style, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "It's okay, then the martial arts of this drama will also use you!"

Deng Weien said to the assistant, and asked the assistant to take Cao Ping to prepare for makeup. There is a circle in any industry, in this era when a large number of Hong Kong actors and directors are developing in the north, Hong Kong directors are naturally a circle, somewhat of a fellow countryman, Zhong Shujia, the director of "The King of Lanling", he also knows, and there should be no problem with the people that Director Zhong has used.

Cao Ping changed into a beggar's outfit, took a wooden stick and a broken bowl, and went to the set to wait for his role.

The set is a street at the gate of Qixia Town in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the scene filmed today is a shot on the street, looking for a lot of group actors, wearing various costumes and walking back and forth on the street.

The on-site director, who was responsible for arranging the group performance, saw Cao Ping, shouted, waved his hand to Cao Ping, and said, "That actor!

Cao Ping said suspiciously: "Playing a beggar seems to be a jack of all trades." ”

The on-site director nodded and said, "I know, then we have to wait for a while, you are idle anyway, take a walk with the group performance and make up the number of people." ”

Cao Ping nodded happily, walked into the crowd with a bowl, and followed the flow of people from one end to the other, from that end to this end. He secretly watched the director shoot with his peripheral vision, and the chief director of the show was a female director, who was sitting in front of the monitor wearing a hat, and shouted: "action!" The camera moved in response, grabbing the picture of a small and delicate actress, who was wearing a red wedding dress, and ran forward with the director's order.

Cao Ping looked at the side, a fat man wearing a copper coin printed costume, holding a folding fan in his hand, was walking lazily, touched him, and asked, "Big brother, is that the heroine? Why don't you know it?"

The fat man yawned and said, "I don't know, I don't know either, I haven't seen it before." ”

Cao Ping nodded, he just asked, but suddenly there was a girl behind him, not very good-looking, not ugly, relatively thin, wearing a maid's clothes, I saw her walk two steps over and said happily: "I know! I know!" Cao Ping looked back at her nostrils that were slightly open with excitement because of the gossip, and knew that if she didn't let her talk about the gossip she heard, she would be uncomfortable all day, so she had to follow the conversation: "Oh?

When the thin girl saw him talking, she said excitedly: "Her name is Zhao Liying, she debuted very early, it seems that because of a talent show, held by Sohu, she won the championship and made the heroine of an advertising film for Feng Xiaogang, and then she has been playing various small supporting roles, and she has not become popular, this time I don't know what luck she had, and she actually became the heroine." ”

When the fat man saw that there was a girl, he hurriedly walked two steps over and said, "Yes, I seem to remember a little bit when I hear you say this, is she playing Qing Gege in "New Huanzhu Gege"? But it's average?"

The thin girl nodded violently and said, "That's right! If you want me to say, there must be a shady scene!"

Cao Ping watched the fat man and the girl chatting hotly, and couldn't help but sigh that the charm of gossip is really for both men and women. The on-site director in the back shouted with a loudspeaker: "Don't get together in the group performances! Disperse and go!" Cao Ping took the opportunity to take two slow steps and walked behind the fat and thin group. He continued to look back at the camera, this time there were already two clicks, Zhao Liying ran out of breath, the director seemed a little unhappy, but he still patiently called Zhao Liying over, and said something to her, Zhao Liying nodded, listened carefully, and then the director asked her to go back to the place and start filming again, Zhao Liying ran out for a while, and her body was a little unnaturally crooked. Cao Ping was stunned for a moment, her tendons were weak and she didn't have strength, and her knee joint was weak in her calves, which was a symptom of an old waist injury, and she was guilty of a back injury.

Zhao Liying ran two more steps, and the director threw the script in his hand to the ground with a "snap", shouting: "Click!" Zhao Liying stopped, her right hand holding her waist trembled slightly, the director stood up, glared at Zhao Liying, and scolded: "What's the matter with you? Am I not clear enough? What I want is the feeling of panic, are you panicking when you just run with your head stuffy? You are running away from marriage, and many people are chasing you behind! You are running so slowly, waiting for someone to catch you!" All the staff are silently handling the work in their hands, not daring to make a sound, although Director Li is a female director, but her temper is not smaller than that of a male director, and she will not show mercy at all when she gets angry.

Zhao Liying apologized again and again, saying: "I'm sorry Director Li, it's my fault, I'll remake another one!"

Director Li sat back with a black face and restarted filming.

“action！”

Zhao Liying ran two steps strongly, but the pain in her waist made her involuntarily reach out to cover her lower back.

"Click!" Director Li stood up angrily and scolded loudly: "Zhao Liying! Can you do it! If you can't do it, leave!"

Zhao Liying held her waist and didn't dare to speak, she really wanted to hold on to finish this one, but her waist was so painful that she couldn't stand it, she couldn't run hard at all, she couldn't run fast, this was the injury she suffered when she was filming a shot of falling off a horse during the filming of "Palace Lock Bead Curtain", she never got better, she lowered her head and was obediently scolded by the director for squirting blood, biting her lip anxiously, tears rolling in her eyes.

At this time, Zhao Liying's assistant hurriedly ran over and kept apologizing to Director Li: "I'm really sorry, Director Li, it's our actor's problem, she has a waist injury, she feels wrong when she gets up this morning, she hasn't eaten, don't be angry, can you take a little rest, I'll press her, and she can continue immediately." ”

Director Li frowned and sighed and said, "Why don't you ask for leave if you're not feeling well?" I can arrange to shoot other shots first, and now that all the actors, equipment, and scenes are in place, why don't you shoot at this time? Is it possible? Even if I agree, can the producer agree? This is all burning money!"

"Yes, yes, yes, what you said is, don't worry, just rest for ten minutes, I'll give our actors a good time, and it'll be fine right away." The assistant laughed.

Director Li was helpless, and shouted loudly: "All rest for ten minutes!" After speaking, he said to the assistant: "Just ten minutes, after ten minutes, I will see the state of your actors, and if not, I will leave." ”

The assistant thanked Zhao Liying and went back.

The group performers also dispersed and found a shaded place nearby to sit down and rest.
