Chapter 733 Find a Way Out
At the end of June, Qingdao Prefecture, SD Province.
Hot weather.
Fortunately, Qingdao Mansion is a city by the sea after all, the cool breeze blowing from the sea, carrying the salty smell of the sea, will not make people too hot to even talk.
Like other staff members, Li Qian was wearing a T-shirt and shorts, watching the scene carefully.
The venue was rented a large stretch of beach by the sea and temporarily set up a large shed with moso bamboo as the main frame. Here, there is the largest and most shot scene in the entire "Once Upon a Time".
At this time, Zhou Baoshan was fighting against Jiang Xiaolong, who was playing the villain, and the martial arts instructor Guo Ziming was standing not far from the two of them, interrupting them from time to time to make detailed adjustments and guidance.
For all scenes involving fights in the play, Li Qian gave the greatest scheduling power to Guo Ziming, who will guide and schedule the actors' performances throughout the process, while he himself is only responsible for leading the camera team to choose the most suitable shooting angles That's it, like a director of photography, more like a director.
Of course, Guo Ziming's action design and guidance must meet Li Qian's requirements.
The two fought in the arena for a while, Guo Ziming beckoned and called over a dozen martial arts group performers, and asked them to join in, so all of a sudden, the scene seemed a little chaotic.
Li Qian was not in a hurry, but looking at Guo Ziming's appearance, he was a little overwhelmed.
But fortunately, when he was still in Shuntian Mansion, he had already deduced countless times in the Minghu Building, and let Zhou Baoshan and the others participate in the simulation countless times. In fact, the current chaos is mainly due to this Helping the newly joined group performers are not quite clear about their respective positions.
Seeing that it was too chaotic, Guo Ziming immediately called a stop, called everyone together, explained each person's position and movement one by one, and demonstrated it himself while talking.
Well, he works hard.
Because in the end, after the preliminary performance training, the teacher believes that he has a preliminary performance foundation, and he can try his best to play a role that does not require high acting skills.
So, for a purely commercial film like "Once Upon a Time", which roles have lower requirements for acting skills? ——The accurate answer is, it’s not too high!
In the end, after testing, Li Qian made a final decision to cast him as the leader of the Shahe Gang in the play!
This can be regarded as the big villain in the play!
For Guo Ziming, this was a surprise!
Although in this way, there will be a picture of him teaching Zhou Baoshan a series of movements hand in hand, and let him use those movements to beat himself up - but, thinking about it, it's quite interesting!
The fight soon followed Guo Ziming's request, and this time, it was indeed much smoother than last time—once the movements were coherent, even ordinary bystanders could immediately see this style of play uniqueness!
Zhou Baoshan's waist was straight, and he walked forward at a leisurely pace, with the demeanor of a grand master. When he saw a move, he always used three moves and two moves easily, and he was able to easily repel the opponent standing in front of him!
This fight seems to be relaxed and freehand, but also particularly refreshing and enjoyable!
It is completely different from the flying around in previous martial arts movies, which only rely on expressions and cuts to highlight the fight, or the blushing of muscles in martial arts movies, and the lively fights are completely different!
Of course, in Li Qian's view, the expression on Zhou Baoshan's face was still a little short of what he wanted. He turned his head and exchanged a few words with Zhao He in a low voice. Zhao He nodded and said softly: "He His facial expression does need to be adjusted, according to the script, it should be the kind of expression that completely ignores the opponent's attack, so his eyes will follow the opponent's movements, which is the biggest problem!"
Li Qian nodded and turned to look at Lu Lingxi beside him.
Sensing his gaze, Lu Lingxi turned her head, shook her head, and smiled, "I have no objection."
Li Qian shrugged.
At this moment, Zhu Yu and Feng Bicheng walked in and whispered: "The clothes are all changed, do you want to take a look again?"
Li Qian turned to look at her and thought for a while, "Don't look at it, just bring it over and ask them to put it on, and try it out on the spot! If you find something wrong, you can find it right away."
Zhu Yu nodded, and was about to leave, but Feng Bicheng hurriedly said: "I'll ask them to bring it in, so you don't have to bask in it again, this big sun!" After speaking, he ran out.
Zhu Yu smiled and said "thank you".
Feng Bicheng laughed and said, "Bicheng is very thoughtful in doing things!"
Li Qian smiled and said nothing.
After taking back the altered costumes, Li Qian gave an order, and the martial arts performers in the arena collectively changed their outfits—it was a very hot day, and everyone was dressed in bunts, so they didn’t even need to take off their clothes at this time. Just put on the clothes in the play.
Soon, except for their hairstyles, a group of more than a dozen people dressed in Shun Dynasty's last year's service appeared in front of everyone.
The whole set of costumes in this movie was designed by Zhu Yu himself, which not only basically complied with the service style in the last years of the Shun Dynasty, but also added certain beautifying elements. Of course, the beautification part is emphatically reflected in the costumes of Huang Feihong and Thirteenth Aunt in the play. As for Liang Kuan, Zhu Rourong, Shahe Gang Leader and others, their roles are originally ordinary civilians at the bottom of society. Even if you want to beautify it, you can't do it too much. Their clothing and styles are still centered on following the mainstream clothing at that time.
Everyone changed their clothes one after another. Even if it was not obvious before, Zhou Baoshan was naturally highlighted by the clothes at this time. He has a medium figure in his early 170s, and he wears this moon-white embroidered Shun Chao The robes of the last years are simply outstanding at a glance!
Li Qian pursed his lips and watched for a while, until Zhou Baoshan lowered his head in embarrassment, stretched here and there, finally smiled, turned his head and said to Zhu Yu: "This time is not bad, better than last time." It looks a little more energetic!"
Zhu Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and his face showed color.
Zhou Baoshan knew that this would be one of his future costumes, and after being praised by Li Qian, he couldn't help but lower his head to look at the clothes carefully - he didn't know anything else, he just knew that the material of the clothes felt right when he touched it. It's quite expensive!
Seeing his immature appearance, Li Qian couldn't help but smile, thinking: in a year's time, maybe he will become the brightest new star in the Chinese film industry! At that time, if it weren't for those who witnessed it at this time, who would know that he actually looked so immature when the filming of this movie started?
But, then again, through my own efforts, I have presented the classics in my mind one by one to the people of this time and space, and at the same time made famous actors one after another, isn't it just that I have been working hard to pursue , Do you work hard to do things?
What a pleasure!
He was still daydreaming, and Zhao He beside him was already thinking in a low voice, "The rehearsal is already a bit basic, the personnel, costumes, and sets are all done..." Thinking, he turned to look at Li Qian, "Start shooting tomorrow?"
Li Qian nodded slowly, took another look at the field, then turned his head to look at the batch of clothes, and then turned to look at Lu Lingxi, "Hey? Why don't you change?"
Lu Lingxi couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard the words, and the people around him laughed.
Considering that the martial arts scene is the most difficult part of the whole movie, and also considering that Guo Ziming and Zhou Baoshan have been rehearsing in Shuntian Mansion for many days, it is a good time to strike while the iron is hot and not delay, so Li Qian decided to go to Qingdao Mansion to finish this part first. The scene in the bamboo shed was filmed, and then I went to film the previous literary drama and short martial arts.
However, in the scene of the bamboo shed, Lu Lingxi only has two sets of costumes, one is messy and the other is even worse. At least there is a skirt on the lower body, but the upper body is only wearing a bellyband, which will reveal a large area Show your back!
A beautiful woman like Lu Lingxi just changed into the messy Shunmo women's middle clothes two days ago, and already saw a group of men at the scene wishing to get nosebleeds on the spot, let alone wearing only bellybands and skirts ! In particular, on that day, there was indeed an extra performer, a young and strong guy, who really had a nosebleed when he saw Lu Lingxi wearing that dirty jacket, so that everyone laughed at him while But it made Lu Lingxi very embarrassed. At this time, she was naturally unwilling to change again.
After everyone laughed, Li Qian clapped his hands and motioned for everyone to come over. Even the photographers who were thinking about camera positions on the other side of the bamboo shed were called over loudly.
When everyone was gathered, Li Qian said: "At last, I will give you half a day to prepare. Tomorrow morning, we will officially start the machine!"
Everyone suddenly agreed!
…………
That night, on the set, two buses stopped at the end of the road not far away, and at this time, on the beach outside the bamboo shed, four or five barbecue stalls were set up at the same time, and a unique barbecue dinner had already begun.
The chef was specially invited from a restaurant in the urban area. There is no need for the crew to do it themselves. Everyone just eats and drinks. However, the wine is limited in supply--the filming will officially start tomorrow, and Sun Yuting, who is in charge of organizing the barbecue dinner, of course knows Can't get anyone drunk.
Everyone ate and drank in groups of three or five, discussing enthusiastically.
Li Qian deliberately called Fu Xuelong aside, and the two of them ate mutton skewers and drank draft beer. Li Qian told him, "Think carefully about this movie. If the filming of this movie is good, I will let you give it to me when the next movie starts." Mirrored."
After a pause, he continued: "Now in our company, Lao Jin's lens is still the number one, but apart from him, Lao Du's lens level is not inferior to yours, and he has more experience, even if I want to help you Going up, you have to come up with some tricky skills, right?"
Fu Xuelong stuttered, nodded frequently, and said: "I don't talk big, look at my work later!"
Li Qian patted his shoulder and smiled.
The two had just finished chatting when Sun Yuting and Lu Lingxi had already walked over together, "Hey, what are you two talking about while hiding?"
Li Qian turned around and said with a smile: "I said that this kind of draft beer directly from the factory is more delicious than the one in Shuntian Mansion. Old Fu said he thinks it's the same." Fu Xuelong just smiled foolishly and didn't speak.
Sun Yuting was a little excited, blushing, "Hey! I believe you are so strange! You may not discuss what! Old Fu, drink, don't run away!"
Fu Xuelong continued to smile silly, "Take it easy, don't drink too much!"
Sun Yuting looked nonchalant, "Hey, I bought the wine, I can't tell how much it is in total? Don't worry, with those drunkards over there, no one wants to drink too much!"
Fu Xuelong smiled innocently, and when he saw Sun Yuting stretching out his cup, he simply touched her, raised his head and took a big mouthful, Li Qian also touched her and Lu Lingxi, and raised his head to drink.
After everyone had drunk, Lu Lingxi looked at Sun Yuting and then at Fu Xuelong, then turned to Li Qian and said, "I have some things. Recently, I am a little confused. Can we go for a walk together? I want to talk to you."
Li Qian nodded, "Of course!"
Sun Yuting shrugged and didn't follow up consciously. She just turned her head and said something to Fu Xuelong. After hearing this, Fu Xuelong smiled foolishly and remained silent.
…………
The two of them walked twenty or thirty steps along the seashore, and the excitement of the barbecue dinner gradually faded away. Lu Lingxi, holding a beer glass in her hand, strolled along while lowering her head in thought. After a long time, she raised her head and asked : "I heard people say that you have watched Liu Chengzhang's "Sword Immortal", and you don't like that movie?"
Li Qian nodded, and said "Yes".
After thinking for a while, he said: "The reason is very complicated. Before the movie is released, it is inconvenient for me to tell you too much detail, because it will be suspected of being a spoiler. That is not good! When it is released, you can watch it yourself. The special effects of that film were made by our company, and it is worth watching. Besides, I don’t think that the film is bad at all. Director Liu’s level and strength are still very strong, but he is a bit greedy. I can't chew it anymore!"
After a pause, he sighed, and said, "My prediction...should be able to protect my capital, right?"
After thinking for a while, he said again: "It should be said that I hope that this film can at least keep its capital!"
Lu Lingxi turned her head and stared at Li Qian for a moment, then nodded.
After a long time, she also sighed, ""Assassins" and "Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan" have both missed. Next, I can only hope that these films, including "Sword Immortal", will perform better in the market Come on! Otherwise..."
Hearing this, Li Qian couldn't help but turned to look at her and smiled.
"Anxiety?" he asked.
"Ah?" Lu Lingxi was puzzled at first when she heard the words, but soon she understood, smiled, nodded, and said, "I'm a little anxious, and, in fact, I've been a little anxious since two or three years ago. , I always feel that domestic movies in the past few years are a bit like lost flies, bumping here and there, and can't find their way!"
Li Qian laughed when he heard the words, "Don't worry, from the literary films of the past 20 or 30 years, to the sudden impact of Hollywood blockbusters, and with the rapid expansion of the domestic film market, the current film industry is actually just not fully developed yet. Just think about it! In fact, in my opinion, even if everyone thinks about it, how to do it is still a big difficulty!"
"But don't worry! We have a huge market in our hands, we have such an excellent cultural heritage, and we can always find a way out!" He said with certainty.
Lu Lingxi looked at him when he heard the words, nodded, but then asked: "You are also looking for a way out, aren't you? This Huang Feihong, and that Red Sorghum!"
Li Qian nodded and said, "Yes."

There will be a big event tomorrow, and I will be outside all day. I don’t know if I can guarantee the update. Let me say hello in advance. If there is no update, please forgive me!
