Chapter 737 It’s Unfair for the Director to Take the Lead!

On the day of the start of filming, all the crew members of "Let the Bullets Fly" arrived at the scene in advance to wait.

Xu Ye's movie can be said to be full of stars.

Zhou Kaiwen plays Zhang Mazi, and his wife Jiang Qingqing volunteered to play Sister Hua.

This corresponds to the roles played by Jiang Wen and his wife on Earth.

Jiang Qingqing also left her name in the Chinese film industry at that time, but she stopped filming after marrying Zhou Kaiwen.

The reason for coming to film this time is also because the script of "Let the Bullets Fly" is so attractive.

Some scripts are so attractive that you don't want to miss them after reading them.

In addition to Jiang Qingqing, the actors who play Huang Silang and Master Tang are also mainland movie emperor-level actors.

This movie emperor is not the kind of movie emperor with extremely high water content, but a genuine movie emperor of the Wanhua Award, with many representative works.

These three actors have not made many movies in recent years. One likes to travel and play, and the other goes back to school to teach directly.

It didn't take much effort to invite these two movie kings. Kevin Chow just introduced them. As soon as the script of Let the Bullets Fly came out, the two movie kings immediately decided to star in the movie.

Xu Ye is now in the limelight. He just won thirteen trophies at the Wanhua Awards with the movie Kung Fu.

Actors in the film industry are scrambling to participate in the new movie that such a director wants to shoot.

These actors are also eager to work with Xu Ye on a good work.

Xu Ye also personally selected other important actors one by one, and several actors were selected from the studio.

As for Xu Ye himself, if he wants to act in this movie, he can only play a supporting role.

For example, Hu Wan, Huang Silang's subordinate, and Liuzi.

However, Xu Ye is not interested in these two roles. From the performance point of view, these two characters have moments to show their acting skills in the movie, which left a deep impression on the audience.

But now Xu Ye no longer needs to use this method to prove his acting skills.

He gave these two roles to two actors in the studio, giving away the opportunity to shine.

This is a big studio that wants to develop in the long run, and it certainly cannot rely on him alone.

If no matter what TV series or movies are made, in the end only Xu Ye becomes popular, then it is meaningless.

Xu Ye's ideal life is to have fun by making movies when he is free.

The most important thing is not to live too hard.

If you are too tired, you will definitely be unhappy.

If the burden is all on him alone, he can't relax even if he wants to.

The role that Xu Ye chose for himself is Lao Qi, who has few scenes in the movie and ranks the lowest among Zhang Mazi's brothers.

On Earth, the person who plays Lao Qi in "Let the Bullets Fly" is named Wei Xiao, who is also one of the screenwriters and deputy directors of "Let the Bullets Fly".

This movie has been interpreted by netizens with too many metaphors, and everyone has different opinions.

Xu Ye thinks that this character with small round-frame glasses and a big back hair is very friendly.

In addition, Lao Qi does not have many scenes, so he can have more time to deal with the director's work.

On the open space of the studio, Kevin Zhou was smoking a cigarette. The person standing opposite him was a male actor who was about the same size as him.

This actor was called Wang Dongfeng, and he played Huang Silang in the movie.

Together with You Jun, who played Master Tang, the three movie kings stood here, and no one else dared to approach.

The sense of oppression was too strong.

Not long after, a nanny car stopped in the open space, the back door of the car opened, and Xu Ye walked out from the back of the car.

Seeing this scene, Kevin Zhou smiled and said, "You are worthy of being the youngest movie king. You just don't take the ordinary path."

Wang Dongfeng asked curiously, "Is there any special etiquette for getting off the car from the back?"

Because of the environment at home, Wang Dongfeng is still very concerned about this kind of thing.

What if Xu Ye specially asked a Feng Shui master to calculate it?

Kevin Zhou threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out, saying, "I don't think it's a special thing. He is just sick!"

Wang Dongfeng was about to refute when he saw the canvas bag in Xu Ye's hand with patterns and words printed on it.

The words read "Memorial of discharge from the Municipal Mental Health Center", and the pattern looked like the emblem of the health center.

Wang Dongfeng was embarrassed.

"What a sick person!"

After Xu Ye came forward and greeted everyone, everyone held a start-up ceremony together.

Nowadays, the start-up ceremony has no special meaning, just to get a good start.

After the ceremony, the main creative team of the crew stood together for a group photo.

Xu Ye asked: "Old Zhou, I just saw that there is a billiard room in the hotel. Do you want to play billiard together?"

Zhou Kevin immediately became interested and smiled: "Okay, but we can't just play billiards, we have to bet on something."

"Then take your film pay to bet." Xu Ye said.

"Hey, hey, hey, this can't be gambled randomly." Zhou Kevin immediately became anxious.

Wang Dongfeng also said: "Count me in."

Everyone looked at You Jun.

You Jun waved his hand and said: "Okay, I'll join in the fun."

After the four people made an appointment, they took the nanny car back to the hotel together.

But when everyone got off the car, Xu Ye took out a rectangular box from the car.

He held the box in his hand, and it always gave people the feeling that there was a gun in the box.

Zhou Kaiwen asked curiously: "What do you have in it?"

"My own billiard cue." Xu Ye said.

You Jun gave a thumbs up: "This is called professionalism!"

Everyone thought that the pool cues in the box were ordinary pool cues, or at most professional pool cues that Xu Ye had someone customize.

Unexpectedly, when Xu Ye arrived at the billiard hall, he put the box on the table and opened it, revealing the contents.

There was a nice pool cue inside, but why did this pool cue look so strange?

The front half of the cue was still a pool cue, but the back half was completely different, like a gun, with a bolt on it.

This was obviously a pool cue modified from a toy gun.

Zhou Kaiwen and Wang Dongfeng's eyes widened.

No, buddy, this is wrong, isn't it?

It was even more outrageous when they started fighting, and they needed to use one hand to hold the cue and one hand to push the cue.

When it came to Xu Ye, he just aimed the pool cue at the white ball and pulled the trigger.

If this was modified in appearance and a laser sight was added, it would be like cheating.

Zhou Kaiwen finally understood why Xu Ye was so eager to find him to play billiard.

After he and Wang Dongfeng both lost to Xu Ye, they strongly asked You Jun to come out and judge.

We drive manual transmission, you drive automatic transmission, this is not a match!

The final result of the game was that Zhou Kaiwen and Wang Dongfeng both lost a meal. They were too stubborn and had to compete with Xu Ye.

But they remembered this matter.

They still had no choice. Xu Ye modified this billiard cue by himself and it was not available on the market.

On the other hand, this big studio also released a group photo of the main creative staff of "Let the Bullets Fly".

After this group photo came out, it immediately caused a sensation on the entire network.

"What kind of lineup is this? Four movie emperors?"

"Zhou Kaiwen, Wang Dongfeng, and You Jun are here too!"

"Is the lineup of this movie so strong?"

Many directors in the circle almost drooled when they saw such a lineup.

It's hard to find one of Zhou Kaiwen and the other three to star in a movie, let alone put the three of them together in the same movie.

Everyone also paid attention to the title of the movie, Let the Bullets Fly.

"So what kind of movie is this? A war movie?"

"All four movies in Xu Ye's five-year plan are comedies, so the last movie should also be a comedy, right?"

"This name doesn't look like a comedy either."

Netizens were discussing it.

Comedy director Yang Baoyin also paid attention to the news.

In the process of facing Xu Ye, Yang Baoyin repeatedly failed and fought again and again.

He still insisted on his long-standing point of view that nonsensical performances are not acceptable.

Even though he knew that the statement he made was ridiculous, he had to say it.

If he admitted that nonsensical comedy was equivalent to denying what he had said before.

In addition, there is the so-called problem of the depth of the movie.

"Kung Fu" and "A Chinese Odyssey" both have depth, but Yang Baoyin thinks these are over-interpretations by the audience.

Without the audience's interpretation, these two movies would just be ordinary comedies.

In fact, Yang Baoyin is just being stubborn.

He doesn't want to give up his share in the comedy field to Xu Ye.

"There is only one year left in your five-year plan. Can you win?" Yang Baoyin said in his heart.

After the news of the opening ceremony of "Let the Bullets Fly", there was no other news.

The filming of the entire movie went very smoothly.

Zhou Kevin's anger was aroused by Xu Ye.

He never won a single game of billiards.

On the set, Xu Ye drank Coke with a goblet and stared at the screen on the monitor.

Today they filmed a famous scene in the movie.

Before Liuzi died, Zhang Mazi interrogated Wu Zhichong and Sun Shouyi, who sold jelly.

After the interrogation, Zhang Mazi came to the gate of the county government.

There was a large crowd of people surrounding the gate. They were all dressed the same and had the same style.

When they saw Zhang Mazi coming, everyone knelt on the ground and shouted "Jingtian Dashao".

Zhang Mazi fired a shot into the sky and shouted, "Get up, don't kneel!"

Later, Zhang Mazi shouted, "I came to Echeng to do only three things: fairness, fairness, and damn fairness!"

When Zhou Kevin said this line, he was emotional.

You are using an automatic pool cue to compare with our manual pool cue, it's not fair!

After this segment was filmed, Zhou Kevin walked to Xu Ye's side with a face full of resentment.

Xu Ye asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"

Zhou Kevin said unhappily, "When will you prepare a pool cue for me, I will be in a good mood."

Xu Ye asked for something from his pocket and smiled, "I'll give you the key to my house in Hawaii, and you can go and play after the filming is finished."

Zhou Kevin's eyes lit up immediately, and he immediately stretched out his hand.

"Don't regret it."

Xu Ye put the thing in his hand in Zhou Kevin's hand.

After seeing the thing in his hand, Zhou Kevin was speechless.

What the hell are you doing with a macadamia nut opener!

Can this be called the key to a house in Hawaii?

It seems that it can be called that.

I think I have this house key at home.

The filming of "Let the Bullets Fly" is also going smoothly.

In a blink of an eye, three months have passed, and "Let the Bullets Fly" has officially finished filming!

Filming this movie was the most tiring of all the movies Xu Ye has filmed.

There are so many camera languages ​​in this movie that there is not a single frame of nonsense in the whole movie.

This greatly increases the difficulty of filming.

After the filming was completed, Xu Ye returned to Ancheng to start editing the film.

On the other hand, good news came from the Dream Building Studio.

"Journey to the West: Hero is Back" is completed!
