Chapter 1044: The Martial Hero Is Dead (Asking for Monthly Votes)
Chapter 1045: Martial Arts is Dead (asking for monthly votes)
There are some scenes in "Black Coal, Thin Ice" that were filmed before the snow, and these were mainly filmed in the early stage.
Then it was the turn of the indoor scenes.
There are also some night scenes, some sentimental scenes, or sentimental scenes at night.
For example, this scene on the Ferris wheel.
Wan Qian and Wang Jingchun also filmed a scene with a little sentimental before, but the scale was not large.
Wang Jingchun played the owner of the laundry shop.
Except for Zhang Zili, he is probably the only one who has not been killed by Liang Zhijun after making a move on Wu Zhizhen.
The reason is very simple, that is, he is not good enough.
The actor of Liang Zhijun is Huang Bo.
Huang Bo was chosen to play this role because Huang Bo had a schedule.
Liang Zhijun's character is probably a lick dog and a strong desire for control. There is a certain probability that he is not good enough, otherwise Wu Zhizhen would not have to go out to find a man.
It is inevitable to think of "Sword Rain".
It is also a script written by Hao Yun.
There is a sentence in it that you are not not good enough, you don't have it.
The scene on the Ferris wheel is the most explicit in the whole movie, with both a warm-up scene and a "bed" scene.
"Change the No. 2 camera to this angle, use a borrowed position to shoot, the No. 1 camera to shoot a distant view, and the No. 3 camera to shoot a close-up of the face. This is the effect I want. Can you do it?"
Hao Yun gave the camera crew a difficult question.
The camera crew was tangled. For such a simple scene, you just hugged the actress and chewed it.
Looking at the willing look on the actress's face, it was probably no problem.
As a result, you insisted on having a taste and even a taste was borrowed. Brother, are you misogynistic?
"OK, adjust the camera position, and move quickly. You are all not cold."
After Hao Yun gave the order, the director of photography Cao Dun immediately followed the request.
He is an old man who follows Hao Yun and knows Hao Yun's temper.
Hao Yun has a set of plans for filming movies. If you follow his plan, it doesn't matter if you make some mistakes.
He is definitely not a tyrant on the set.
But if the filming cannot be carried out according to his plan because of you, then I'm sorry, he can replace you at any time.
The only one who can ruin his plan is his woman.
Don't feel wronged, because he will not cooperate with you in the future, and it's not too late for you to feel wronged.
After arranging the photographer, Hao Yun talked to Wan Qian about the play.
In fact, Wan Qian has been acting very well these days. She may not be beautiful, but she has a kind of charm.
She can perform that kind of cold and charming... coquettishness.
"Don't shake the camera, it's your first day as a photographer, Cao Dun!" This love scene is divided into several shots.
One is the two people biting each other ambiguously, and some of them used borrowing.
One is Wu Zhizhen's reaction to being fucked.
Another is Zhang Zili's reaction to being fucked.
It's okay to shoot two people, the key is to see how well the two people act and whether they can immerse themselves in that atmosphere.
Zhang Zili asked Wu Zhizhen to take the initiative, and when the two got together, Wu Zhizhen took the initiative.
It looked like they were biting passionately in the camera, but in fact, they didn't touch each other at all.
But Wan Qian was still a little shy. After all, even if Hao Yun pretended to be decadent, he was still a rare handsome man. With his status, women were even more obsessed with him.
Fortunately, both of them were professionals.
So it looked very smooth in the camera.
It was just a little awkward when they were shooting a single person.
The photographer held the camera, stood above the actress with his legs apart, and shot down.
The actress had to make movements and expressions.
Or like what Hao Yun was doing now.
The photographer lay down, holding the camera in his hand, and then Hao Yun rode on the photographer...
There was no way, the love scenes were all shot like this.
This photographer was a little nervous when Hao Yun rode on him for the first time, and his hands, which were always calm, were shaking a little.
Hao Yun directly asked Cao Dun to take the lead in shooting this shot.
"This angle is really scary." Cao Dun made a joke and successfully shot this scene.
"OK, let's call it a day. Let's call it a day. Let's go eat barbecue together later."
Although "Black Coal, Thin Ice" only required 30 million yuan in investment, there were no special effects and no big scenes, so the funds were very sufficient. Hao Yun occasionally acted as a good boss by asking everyone to shoot in such a cold weather.
When the staff on the scene heard this, they immediately stopped feeling tired.
The first snow of the year in the Ice City appeared one night. Hao Yun, wearing a sheepskin coat, opened the door of the terrace of the hotel room and saw the stars of snowflakes, which swirled and fell to the earth under the dim light.
The wind was cold and the temperature dropped to below 10 degrees Celsius.
It didn't snow for a long time last night, but the snow layer was very thick, which was convenient for Hao Yun and his team to shoot.
Many scenes in this play were shot in the snow.
For example, the scene where Hao Yun got drunk and lay on the roadside in the heavy snow.
It is said, but it is just said.
In the Northeast, every year when it snows, there are cases of drunk people falling on the roadside. If no one calls the police, the police will take them away and they will freeze to death.
The main reason for this phenomenon is that people don’t feel cold lying on the snow after drinking.
The ethanol component of alcohol has the effect of dilating blood vessels, making people feel hot.
In addition, alcohol and its metabolites have a certain anesthetic effect on the central nervous system, which makes the skin less sensitive to the cold outside, so they don’t feel so cold after drinking.
There is such a scene in "Black Coal, Thin Ice".
Zhang Zili was riding a motorcycle under a tunnel bridge, lying there in the snow.
Then a crowd actor appeared.
This crowd actor saw a person lying on the snow, he went over to care for him, and found that the other person was drunk, then rode away his good motorcycle, leaving his own broken motorcycle there...
It was really funny, but also scary.
"Is Zhang Zili completely unaware, angry, or indifferent? Guo Ke..." Hao Yun asked by name.
"Normal anger is definitely not good, and complete indifference should not be good either. It would be best if he could be a little sentimental to highlight his hope to change the status quo." Guo Ke, who was called by name, thought for a while and answered slowly.
This is not the first time he has been an assistant director. He had been an assistant director before joining the Young Directors Program.
However, he looks strong, but in fact he is a little soft-hearted.
During filming, he rarely speaks actively, and always observes silently. Hao Yun hopes that he, who is experienced, can make a movie independently as soon as possible, so he will call on him to answer questions.
"It's OK, you direct this part."
After Hao Yun finished putting on his makeup, he fell to the side of the road.
This scene was probably the most decadent moment of his whole play. He was drunk but not asleep.
When the extras took off his helmet, he was immersed in the memories of the past, with a face full of pain.
Drinking to relieve sorrow only made him more sorrowful.
The extras pushed him twice, and then he pushed him away.
This extra is called Bi Gan, who did not show up throughout the whole process and only had a few lines.
The reason why he was able to act was that he had the best motorcycle skills, and he had no problem riding even on the snow.
This was also a performance in front of the boss.
There are many minor supporting roles in "Fireworks in the Daytime" played by these assistant directors.
Minor supporting roles do not need any acting skills, they just need to obey and understand the director's meaning.
Who else can understand Hao Yun's meaning better than these assistant directors?
"OK, this scene is finished. For the scene between Huang Bo and Zhang Yi tonight, you and Zhang Dalei will be the main actors, and the others will assist. I will watch it tomorrow after the scene is finished."
"No problem, director, go ahead!"
"That doesn't sound right. If you are hungry, let Zhang Yi treat you to a meal. He is a local."
"No way. I am filming a death scene today, and it will be the kind where the body will be dismembered. Shouldn't I be given a big red envelope? Why do you ask me to treat you?"
Zhang Yi plays the role of policeman Xiao Wang, who replaced Zhang Zili as the captain of the criminal police after he left the police force.
During the process of arresting Huang Bo, he was killed by Huang Bo with an ice knife.
Hao Yun must admit that he has somewhat discredited our police uncle for the needs of the movie plot.
First, a group of four people arrested two suspects, but in the end there was only one pair of handcuffs, which indirectly led to the situation of two deaths and one injury.
Later, the criminal police captain played by Zhang Yi went on a mission alone. It was fine. The suspect said that his arm was injured and he was asked to handcuff him in front, but he was so naive that he believed it.
"I'll reimburse you later!"
"Then I'll take my brothers to eat casserole, the boss will treat us!"
"Bring me a portion when you go back!"
Hao Yun waved his hand and left the set. He lay on the snow for more than an hour. Even though he was in very good physical condition, he was still a little cold.
Moreover, he had an appointment to call An Xiaoxi. If he delayed too late, it would affect An Xiaoxi's rest.
Hao Yun could also see his precious daughter through video chat.
So that his daughter would not recognize him next time she saw him.
Moreover, although his main job every day was to shoot movies, being busy was actually his normal state.
The post-production work of "The Martian" alone was enough to keep him busy.
If he wanted to finish shooting "Fireworks in the Daytime" in November, he had to let the assistant directors shoot some unimportant shots. Anyway, he would check them after shooting, and he could also use them as teaching materials to train these assistant directors.
Hao Yun is probably the least jealous director.
He wishes that all the assistant directors could be independent.
The movie "The Martian" has many special effects shots, and Hao Yun needs to follow up and guide them frequently.
The movie is scheduled to be released in North America in January.
If the movie is very popular, it can increase the popularity of Hao Yun's Oscar campaign.
"Black Coal, Thin Ice" was edited after filming, and then it was sent to the Berlin Film Festival at the beginning of next year.
The 61st Berlin International Film Festival will be held from February 10 to 20, 2011, earlier than the Oscars on the 27th.
Hao Yun may become the best actor before he wins the Oscar.
Of course, it is also possible that he will have both, or neither. Whether it is the Berlin Film Festival or the Oscars, it is not something that Hao Yun can control.
What he can control mainly is the current Chinese film industry.
He is filming in Harbin, and people from the Chinese film industry often come to visit him.
Some came to make themselves known, especially directors or actors from Northeast China, such as Yang Yazhou, who had just finished filming the movie "Big Sun" to commemorate the third anniversary of the Wenchuan earthquake. He heard that Hao Yun was filming in Harbin, so he drove over to have dinner with Hao Yun.
Huang Jianxin's "Back to Back Face to Face" was co-directed with Yang Yazhou.
Yang Yazhou is the winner of multiple awards for best director, including the Golden Rooster, Golden Eagle, Huabiao, and Feitian Awards.
His film works focus on morality and people's livelihood, the living conditions of the little people, and he can always see the sunshine in the suffering. He can be said to be a person with social conscience and artistic pursuits.
Of course, when others visit Hao Yun, Hao Yun cannot turn a blind eye to local cultural figures.
He has also visited some old artists in person.
For example, Mr. Wang Zhichao, 83 years old, was once the director, dean, and director of the Cultural Bureau of Bingcheng Drama Theater.
However, it is rare to see people like Xu Haofeng who come all the way from the capital.
"Brother, you are wearing too little..."
This is the ice city with a temperature of minus 15 degrees Celsius. Well, minus 15 degrees Celsius is the result of the temperature rising.
Xu Haofeng wore a down jacket that didn't look very thick.
What's more outrageous is that he actually wore a formal shirt inside that looked good but was useless.
You look down on the temperature in our Northeast.
"I didn't expect it to be so cold." Xu Haofeng said shiveringly. In fact, it was not cold in the house, but it was extremely cold outside.
"You've come all this way, brother..." Hao Yun got straight to the point.
"Begging for alms, oh, I want to make a movie, a martial arts action movie, a real martial arts action movie." Xu Haofeng didn't beat around the bush.
He felt that the person who understood him best in the entertainment industry was probably Hao Yun.
Because Hao Yun was not only a martial artist, but also had made martial arts movies like "Sword Rain".
"Xu Ke is making a martial arts movie recently, "The Empire of Heaven" barely counts, why did you think of looking for me instead of Bernard?" Hao Yun was not very interested in martial arts movies.
There is nothing more to make of this thing.
You made it with all your efforts, but the box office was not much, and compared it with the Hong Kong martial arts movies ten years ago, what you made was like a pile of shit, isn't this just asking for trouble.
Anyway, Hao Yun didn't think he could make a martial arts movie that surpassed "New Dragon Inn" and "Swordsman: Invincible in the East".
Now photography technology, special effects technology and other technologies have improved, but these things are meaningless in martial arts films.
Something shot with an investment of 200 million yuan is not necessarily better than a movie with a production cost of 8 million yuan.
Yes, Hao Yun was complaining about Xu Ke.
His new film "Dragon Gate Flower Armor" invited Li Lianjie and cost 200 million yuan to shoot, while the previous work "New Dragon Gate Inn" only cost 8 million yuan.
"That's Xu Ke." Xu Haofeng said endless bitterness in one sentence.
Because it is Xu Ke, people are willing to invest, because Xu Ke has created many miracles.
What does he Xu Haofeng have.
The only thing he can brag about is that he was the screenwriter and martial arts consultant for Wang Jiawei's "One Bag Master", and this title must be followed by "one of".
"Can I see the script?" Hao Yun has written so many scripts, and his vision is there.
He can tell whether a script can produce anything by just flipping through it.
Sure enough, after taking the script from Xu Haofeng, Hao Yun took a few glances and knew that this brother's movie was going to fail.
He looks like a loser.
"Take another look, take another look!" Xu Haofeng begged when he saw Hao Yun wanted to put it down after flipping through a few pages.
It's not that he can't find money to make a movie.
He has written several books over the years and has many die-hard fans. He can find some rich people to get some money from them.
But those people are only motivated by the moment and will retreat once the movie loses money.
Therefore, Xu Haofeng hopes that people can truly understand his movie.
It's best to have a rich man who knows martial arts and understands martial arts, and doesn't care about the loss of tens of millions.
Hao Yun just meets the conditions of a long-term meal ticket.
"Well, Mr. Xu, please go ahead and I'll finish reading this script."
Hao Yun smiled and did not refuse such a request. Xu Haofeng's introducer was Lu Jinming, and Lu Jinming was Hao Yun's martial arts teacher. They have been in contact for the past few years. Hao Yun would personally bring gifts to his door during festivals.
The concept of "once a teacher, always a father" no longer exists, but respecting teachers who deserve respect will never go out of style.
After Hao Yun finished reading the script, he spoke again: "I admit that this script is indeed interesting, but that's all. It's impossible to make a comeback in martial arts films with this movie."
This is not something that people can decide, it's decided by the market.
"I understand, I just want to shoot something to tell people what the real martial arts world is like, no high-flying, no fancy fighting..." Xu Haofeng hurriedly explained.
"Okay, how much do you want?"
Hao Yun is a very utilitarian person and rarely does business that loses money.
But martial arts are indeed less and less popular, replaced by people like Ma Baoguo who are praised as "Kung Fu King" by the British martial arts community.
In modern society, martial arts are not important.
But martial arts can also be said to be very important. At some point, it represents the blood of a nation.
So Hao Yun is willing to give Xu Haofeng a chance.
Willing to give people like Xu Haofeng a chance.
"Eight million is fine, if not, six million is fine, but I hope to rely on the publicity channels of Black Bean Media during the publicity."
Xu Haofeng was overjoyed, but he still didn't dare to ask for too much.
"Okay, Black Bean Media will invest in this project."
Hao Yun wanted to roll his eyes. It's just a D-level project. If you ask Lu Jinming to pass on a message, I will give you this face.
Why do you need to make this trip in the wind and snow!
