Chapter 89: Surrounded by Heroes
The week of training passed by in a flash, and next was the start-up ceremony.
Zhang Yuan has experienced this twice, and it is no longer new.
On the other hand, Zhang Dabeard, as always, loves to work hard on this kind of thing. The scene was very grand. The owners of the scenic spot, investors, and reporters from major TV stations were all summoned, and a buffet was arranged.
A press conference was held by him for a long time, Zhang Yuan faked a smile until his face froze, and then it ended.
Everything is fine, and there is no trouble like the crew of "Eternal Dragon Sword".
Zhang Yuan is already familiar with most of the leading actors and crew bosses, but there are exceptions.
The assistant director Ma Peng's attitude towards Zhang Yuan was neither salty nor cool. When they met, he just nodded casually and often showed unkind eyes.
Zhang Yuan understood that this person was pointing at the crew's lunch boxes to make money, but Zhou Xiaowen handed over most of the business to him, so of course he felt unhappy.
"I'm still unhappy. The most profitable part has been snatched away by you, an old boy." Zhang Yuan had a smile on his face and felt MMP in his heart.
However, behind him is director Zhou Xiaowen, and behind Ma Peng is Zhang Jizhong. Neither party can touch the other, maintaining a delicate balance.
Cao Jianjun and his comrades also arrived at the set in advance. Zhang Yuan contacted Mr. Hu at the scenic spot and asked them to stay in a hotel under the other party's name. In this way, the food they cooked was fully licensed.
After the opening ceremony, it was the first scene.
Like many crew members, the first scene is of great significance. They always want to "come up with a big one" and ask for their eloquence, but if they don't do it well, they will easily become "a big one" and be embarrassed.
The content of the first game is the "Battle of Juxianzhuang".
There was no Zhang Yuan in this scene, but Chen Hao, Liu Qianqian, Shu Chang, and Gao Feng were all idle. They each had handfuls of melon seeds and hid in the distance to watch.
I have to say that having money is good.
The single scene of this scene is three or four times larger than Huang Rihua's version, and there are hundreds of actors present. It truly restores this big scene in the book, not the "meaning" of the Hong Kong version Just get there", a sparse style of painting.
"Ahhhhhhh!!!" Hu Jun in the crowd shouted.
The arms are waving like tigers and tigers, three circles to the left, three circles to the right, turning movements, and stretching movements.
Numbering the cards, shuffling the cards, pushing the cards, whatever happened...
He had hidden two small packets of ash powder in his sleeves in advance. When he exerted his strength with his arms, two clouds of white smoke would come out one after another.
At a later stage, if you add two golden dragons flying and add dragon roars, you will have a good audio-visual effect.
"Stuck!" Zhou Xiaowen shouted stop in the first shot.
Zhao Jian and Yuan Bing were watching, but Zhang Bearded rushed to the airport after attending the ceremony.
Zhang Jizhong is not only doing this, but also filming the final scenes of "Legend of the Condor Heroes" on the other side, so he has to go there and watch.
Precisely because he could not be at the scene all the time, the deputy director named Ma Peng was arranged to be on the set. This bearded imperial envoy was responsible for supervising the officials.
The screenwriters of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are also quite interesting, one of them is good and the other is evil.
The real name is Lan Xiaolong. He later collaborated with Kang Honglei, who also debuted as a bearded man, and produced many classic military masterpieces.
The evil one has a catfish face and a beard that looks more like catfish whiskers.
This person who participated in the script production of "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan" is named Shi Hang.
In later generations, he was accused of harassment by dozens of women and his reputation was ruined.
Back to the set.
"Jun, come here." Zhou Xiaowen waved to Hu Jun.
“Director Zhou, what’s wrong?”
"Um..." Zhou Xiaowen rubbed the stubble on his chin and said a little embarrassedly: "Yesterday I asked you to practice the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms in advance. Have you practiced it?"
"Yes. I've been practicing for several hours." Hu Jun narrowed his eyes in embarrassment.
"But the effect just now was not good, you can see for yourself."
Hu Jun and the director watched the replay together. The palm just now was indeed not as domineering as Qiao Feng.
Frustration, although everyone will know it in later generations, Hu Jun is really a literary and opera actor.
Before this show, he had never even filmed a costume.
"Teacher Hu Jun, let me teach you again." Yuan Bing pulled him aside and readjusted his movements.
In order to save time, Zhou Xiaowen first took close-ups of the aerial scenes and group performances.
Half an hour later, Yuan Bing returned to Zhou Xiaowen, and then shook his head helplessly.
“My body is too hard, and I forget what I have learned.”
When it comes to memorizing lines, Hu Jun is a good player, but he has never filmed a fighting scene and has no dance foundation, which makes Hu Jun's action scenes comparable.
The body is as stiff as Gao Yuanyuan.
The action looks like Gao Yuanyuan.
The one with poor effect is like Gao Yuanyuan.
……
"Then what should we do... right." Zhou Xiaowen suddenly remembered.
Yang Tao mentioned to him that the Song Qingshu character in the previous "Yitian Sword of the Dragon" was the Nine Yin White Bone Claw.
After Zhang Yuan was injured, he changed himself into the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.
He has experience in this skill!
Zhang Yuan slapped the melon seed skins off his hands and followed Yuan Bing to Hu Jun and Zhou Xiaowen.
"That's it." Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "I really know how to do it."
"Brother Jun, why don't you come with me."
Zhang Yuan led him to the side .
In just 5 minutes, Hu Jun returned to the court.
At this moment, he was full of confidence, with an expression that said "I've realized it" all over his face.
"Director Zhou, I taught Brother Jun everything."
"Is that okay?"
"You will know if you try it." Anyway, the crew has money and uses a digital camera. If the shot is not good, you can delete it without saving film.
“"Dragon", the first scene, the first shot, the second time, ACTION!"
Hu Jun took up his stance again.
This time, he did not make that complicated series of "big moves."
Instead, he opened his arms, expanded his chest, and tried his best to make a roc spread its wings.
The wig on the head naturally fluttered due to this movement.
Then Hu Jun took a deep breath, shouted loudly, and swung his arm forward with all his strength.
The wide robe and long sleeves brought up two strong gusts of wind, blowing his already messy hair straight back. The whole person was as domineering as a running lion.
“Stuck!” Zhou Xiaowen shouted stop again, and then looked at the monitor.
“Hey, don’t say it, you really don’t say it!”
“This one has a trick from afar, and the effect looks much better than just now.”
【Received thanks from Hu Jun, equestrian +1! 】
Yuan Bing on the side covered his face.
Nima.
I spent a long time designing a perfect set of moves, but this guy only had two moves in total.
The roc spreads its wings, overwhelming mountains and seas, it’s over.
But the effect is better than the complex movements I designed. How can this be justified?
No wonder it was taught to Hu Jun in five minutes. If he couldn't teach the two moves anymore, he would be a fool.
"Director Yuan, actually this is my method." At this time, Zhang Yuan spoke next to him: "It is specially used for ordinary actors like us who have no foundation."
Just now, Zhang Yuan had been eating melon seeds and watching from a distance, and he had already discovered the problem.
The biggest problem is that this action is too complicated!
When Hu Jun was performing, he was obviously thinking while playing. His movements were not only incoherent, but also not in place.
When Zhang Yuan said this, Yuan Bing understood.
He was thinking about how to improve the visual effects, but instead he ignored the basics and forgot that actors have their limits.
He doesn’t have much contact with mainland actors, and those in Xiangjiang are more experienced, so he is used to difficult fighting routines.
"This boy's observation skills are quite good."
Yuan Bing smiled and nodded to him, thinking that when Zhang Dabeard asked about the scene, he would have to give him a few good words. sentence.
"Okay, let's do it this way, Director Yuan. From now on, the movements will be simpler. Anyway, we can do special effects." Zhou Xiaowen simply came to a conclusion.
“Understood.”
The filming continued, and Yuan Bing helped Hu Jun optimize his movements.
"Director Yuan." During the break, a short, unattractive actor came to Yuan Bing's side.
"Overhaul, what's going on?"
The person who came was none other than Xiu Gai, the actor of Feng Bo Evil.
This man also played the young Gao Qiu in "Water Margin".
That’s why I became associated with Big Beard.
At the same time, he and his younger brother Xiu Qin had practiced martial arts for many years, and had also made a living in Xiangjiang, so they were familiar with Yuan Bing.
“Are you familiar with the actor Murong Fu?”
Yuan Bing's eyes rolled back and forth, and he understood what the other party meant.
Originally, the role of Murong Fu and the bearded man was intentionally given to Xiu Qin. His role as Ouyang Ke in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" had just ended, so he could perfectly match the role.
But Zhang Yuan came out halfway and took this position.
In the crew, Xiu Ge felt sorry for his younger brother.
"Overhaul, everyone has his own destiny, wealth lies in heaven."
"Some people are the fate of the protagonist, and some people are the fate of the supporting characters. Like me, it is the fate of Wu Xing."
Yuan Bing acted as a peacemaker, trying to alleviate Xiu Ge's dissatisfaction.
"But that guy is so young, can he be qualified for this role?" As the eldest brother, Xiu Ge loves his younger brother the most.
Of course, the marriage is indeed a success. From their appearance, to their temperament, to their relationship, they feel like Wu Da Wu Er.
"Haha, I was present at his audition." Yuan Bing looked at him with a smile.
"With Zhang Yuan's boxing and stick skills, you are no match for him."
Xiu Ge was horrified!
Although he is not from a sect, he has practiced martial arts for many years, and most average practitioners can be on par with him.
Is this guy so powerful?
“Furthermore, Zhang Yuan’s appearance also takes advantage. Your brother is not bad, but if he is paired with the little girl who plays Wang Yuyan, the gap in appearance and age will be too big.”
Xiu Ge sighed, looked at Zhang Yuan in the distance, lowered his head and acquiesced to what the other party said.
“There are plenty of opportunities in the film and television industry.” Yuan Bing patted him on the shoulder.
Xiu Ge left silently, but he was still dissatisfied and dissatisfied.
Yuan Bing saw all this, so he turned around and said hello to Zhang Yuan.
"It doesn't matter." Zhang Yuan waved his hand after listening.
"If it were me, I would also be angry for my brother."
"You are quite generous." Seeing that he didn't care, Yuan Bing confirmed his previous thoughts.
This kid will definitely do great things in the future!
But what I didn’t expect was that in the next scene, Zhang Yuan unexpectedly stretched his hips...
