Chapter 138: The Technique of Cutting the Sky and Drawing the Sword
The first scene after Zhang Yuan arrived on the set was the night scene.
The content is also very coincidental, it happens to be the scene during his audition.
That is [The old demon from Montenegro forcibly marries Xiaoqian, and the Seven Nights Demon Lord immediately cuts his sword]
After arriving at the set, he unexpectedly discovered that the martial arts director from the crew of "A Chinese Ghost Story" , or an acquaintance of his.
Who?
Lao Ma, Ma Yuchen!
Small half a year ago, the two of them lived together on the set of "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Slayer" for several months.
After finishing the work on "Yi Tian", he came to work on the crew of "A Chinese Ghost Story" under the introduction of his master Cheng Xiaodong.
"Marco!"
Ma Yuchen was discussing the first action scene with the director when Zhang saw him from a distance and waved hello.
“You two know each other?” Li Huizhu asked unexpectedly.
"Hi, I was in the same crew before, "Heaven Slaying the Dragon", and he played Song Qingshu."
"Oh." After Director Li came to his senses, he nodded slightly: "Then you should know it very well. How about this guy’s kung fu show?”
“The foundation is good, but the skills and qualifications are very shallow.” What impressed Ma Yuchen the most was Zhang Yuan’s performance during the audition for “Eight of Heaven”. Zhang Yuan's natural martial art, and most of his impressions of Zhang Yuan's martial arts remained at that moment.
In his opinion, he and Zhang Yuan hadn't seen each other for only half a year, how could his kung fu be so great?
“Hello, Director Li, hello, Director Ma.”
Calling Ma Brother just now was a sign of kindness, but now calling Director Ma a sign of respect.
"Just in time, it will be your scene in a moment. The first scene is of you killing the old Black Mountain demon with a sword." Ma Yuchen pulled him to sit down.
Director Li remained calm. She found that Ma Yuchen's attitude when talking to Zhang Yuan was not like a superior or a subordinate, but like an old friend.
"He gets along well with everyone." Director Li recalled the intimate conversation between Zhang Yuan and Yang Dengkui at the afternoon press conference.
"Are you better at socializing than acting?" Director Li thought to himself.
"Zhang Yuan, just like in "Yitian", your weapon here is also a sword."
"One thing is that in this movie, your move is called Zhantianba Swordsmanship is all about killing with one blow, with surging force.”
“The setting of this move is more like swordsmanship than swordsmanship.”
"There is a big difference between a knife and a sword, especially in terms of power." Ma Yuchen patiently explained.
"In general, the swordsmanship is agile and the swordsmanship is fierce. Especially for our scene, it needs to be... exaggerated to facilitate the addition of special effects later." Lao Ma said euphemistically.
“I understand, just show off.” Zhang Yuan said knowingly.
Soon, the crew will start filming.
Not to mention, because of his performance and popularity at the afternoon press conference, even if there was no show, the male lead Chen Xiaodong came to the scene to observe.
I want to weigh and weigh this supporting character who stole my limelight.
Wu Jing, who was familiar with Zhang Yuan in the afternoon, was naturally present.
Not to mention the female lead, Xu Xiyuan, she was already in this scene, and since she was as curious as Chen Xiaodong, she became more and more concerned.
“ACTION!”
Li Huizhu gave an order, Zhang Yuan stood firmly on the spot, then exerted force on his waist, his left leg rooted to the ground, and his right leg moved half a step back, with his toes touching the ground, at any time Waiting to explode.
The upper body, the arms are tight, the muscles are bulging, and the lines are clear, like two giant dragons crossing the river, holding a bright silver sword in their mouths, shining brightly under the moonlight, and the cold air is overwhelming.
"Slash the Sky and Draw the Sword Technique!"
Zhang Yuan shouted loudly, which shocked the ears of the staff around him.
The moment he exerted his strength, veins popped up on his forehead, and his two eyebrows suddenly stood up as if they had turned into steel swords.
Phew!
The steel sword used as a prop drew a perfect arc in mid-air, which was rounder and brighter than the moon.
The sword's power was exhausted, and the sound of breaking through the air came quickly.
Hoarse, dull, like a wolf shouting when looking at the moon.
As the heroine of the whole drama and this scene, Xu Xiyuan is positioned closest to Zhang Yuan.
After the sword was swung down, when she heard the sound of breaking through the air, she felt that her chest was hit by a strong wind.
The heat pressed against her body, and she tried to exhale after a few seconds.
"Stuck!" Li Huizhu said with joy on her face, waving her hand to stop: "Very good, let's do it again from another angle!"
Li Daoxin said that the sword just now wiped out the domineering feeling in her heart The perfect interpretation of the "slashing the sky and drawing the sword" is really domineering and unrestrained.
"I'm afraid Nie Yuan can't achieve this effect." Director Li said to himself.
She still feels a little resentful about the casting.
"Director, I can't come!"
Li Huizhu affirmed Zhang Yuan in her heart, but the other party unexpectedly sang the opposite tune.
"What's wrong? Are you tired, or did you move too much and hurt yourself?"
"No..." Zhang Yuan raised the "Yixi Sword" in his hand and shook it.
The prop sword at this moment is like a middle-aged uncle who has more than enough ambition but not enough power...it is already wilted.
Under his full swing, the Yixi Sword had turned into a C-Xi Sword, and the blade was bent.
In order to be lightweight, this prop sword is actually a plastic frame covered with a thin layer of iron.
Looking at the props alone, Zhang Yuan lamented that although the bearded man is greedy for money, he is really good at filming!
The prop sword of "Dragon Babu" not only presses the hand, but also has realistic pattern details.
Compared with this crew, it seems a bit "shoddy".
"Props, what's going on?" Director Li asked sternly.
The prop brother apologized helplessly.
"Director Li, my method is wrong, I used too much force." Zhang Yuan looked like he stepped forward to help smooth things over.
【Received thanks from Jiang Dabao, +1 for prop production! 】
While changing props, Ma Yuchen stepped forward with her head tilted.
"There's something wrong with you!"
"What?" Zhang Yuanzheng was rubbing his arm. He had really used a lot of force just now.
After all, the first impression is very important. He wanted to leave a perfect image to the crew and other actors through the first scene.
"You have practiced!" Ma Yuchen frowned and walked around him three times: "There are shadows of sword skills in your actions just now."
At this time, Wu Jing, who was watching the show, also frowned and stepped forward: "Have you ever practiced martial arts?"
"And it's still Southern Kung Fu." After a whole afternoon of chatting, Wu Jing was greatly impressed by this new "colleague".
Not only does he have an astonishing number of roles, but he is also quite business savvy. He uses his relationship with the crew to make money from surrounding industries.
He seems to be very good at his weak spot...women.
Wu Jing was almost depressed.
Obviously he has been in the industry for many years and has starred in many popular TV series, but after meeting a young actor, he developed a slight inferiority complex.
However, he quickly calmed down.
"I also have the ability to stabilize his end."
"That's Kung Fu!"
As the saying goes, laymen only watch the excitement, and experts watch the door.
He was watching the sword strike just now, and like Ma Yuchen, he quickly discovered the clues.
This method of exerting force and this technique of using the sword clearly have a foundation in swordsmanship!
Wu Jing then realized that his only advantage in "crushing" his opponents did not seem to be indestructible.
As for where Zhang Yuan’s sword skills come from?
We have to start with Huang Julong, who plays Zhuo Feifan in "Dragon".
This guy is good at swords, guns, sticks and boxing. After the two of them competed in public, Zhang Yuan used a trick to win. Not only did he get a lot of points, but he also reached an agreement with Brother Long to use his Shaolin stick skills in exchange for the rest of his skills. Law.
Among them is Cai Lifu's single sword technique that Long Ge is good at!
Cai Li Fu's sect originated in Guangdong Province. Ma Yuchen could tell that he had practiced swordsmanship, but Wu Jing, an expert among experts, went one step further and saw that he used southern swordsmanship.
"Brother Ma, Brother Jing, I'm ashamed. I did practice a set of sword skills, but I'm not good at it. It's embarrassing."
"Aren't you a natural master?" Ma Yuchen He asked doubtfully: "Why did you practice sword skills again?"
Wu Jing on the side was stunned. Not only did he know Nandao, but he also knew the natural martial art!
“If you have too many skills, don’t overwhelm yourself. If you have the opportunity, learn more.” Zhang Yuanhan said with a smile.
Ma Yuchen began to regret a little.
I regret that when I was talking to Li Huizhu just now, I probably underestimated Zhang Yuan's progress.
"We will treat each other with admiration after three days of separation..." Ma Yuchen thought to himself: "It seems that I have to re-evaluate this kid's abilities."
The three of them knew kung fu and soon started talking about sword skills and kept chatting.
On the other hand, Chen Xiaodong’s eyes swayed several times.
"That sword strike just now was so cool!" Xu Xiyuan, standing next to him, said, covering his chest.
At the same time, Chen Xiaodong also expressed his inner thoughts.
Damn it!
Handsome indeed!
Towards the north.
Why did the crew find such a handsome actor to play the villain?
Chen Xiaodong was born as a singer. He was originally relatively weak in acting and not that confident.
Now I see Zhang Yuan’s performance.
That look, that momentum, that look.
Look again at director Li Huizhu’s satisfied expression.
He was already worried. What if he was overshadowed by the other party when he was filming a scene with an opponent in the future?
"My little heart is still pounding." Xu Xiyuan rubbed his not plump chest, looked at Zhang Yuan's back, and licked his lips.
There is a psychological term called "suspension bridge effect".
When encountering danger, human beings will instinctively have their heart beat faster. If they meet a person of the opposite sex at this time, it is easy to extend the cause of this "heartbeat" to the other person.
This is a psychological illusion in which the physical stress caused by danger is regarded as a pounding heartbeat.
She was closest to Zhang Yuan just now, and she was caught in the strong wind caused by swinging her sword.
Heart pounding?
That was because I was not mentally prepared and was scared!
However, if Huang Bo were to wield the sword, Xu Xiyuan would not have a suspension bridge effect even if he swung the sword energy.
The key depends on your face.
Besides, she also saw that Zhang Yuan had a close relationship with her godfather, so she became more and more curious.
“Even my Xiaoqian is going to be snatched away by him?” Chen Xiaodong’s already huge eyes were even more glaring.
This moment is more like a sign of the life of the crew after Chen Xiaodong...
After the martial arts drama ends, it is literary drama.
The content of the literary opera is even simpler, it is exactly what happened during his audition.
“ACTION!”
“Three different performances were given in three auditions. Which one do you think he will use this time?” Director Li held a volume of script and thought to the side. Chen Shisan asked.
“I don’t think those three are perfect, I always feel they are a little bit worse.”
"Yeah." Director Li nodded, with the same opinion.
In the center of the shot, Zhang Yuan is sitting on two wooden benches, pretending to be riding a horse.
The crew is very smart and plan to film all the circus together to save some rental money.
"I ask you again, should you let this person go, or not!"
Although the conditions are "difficult", Zhang Yuan is still meticulous and looks straight ahead steadily. Let it go.
This time he was neither humble nor arrogant, neither arrogant nor impetuous, neither quick nor slow.
Don't be impetuous because your lover is tied up, nor be scornful and indifferent because you should be confident.
It just seemed like the tone was normal, asking the other party steadily.
“Another acting technique!” Director Li raised his eyebrows at Chen Shisan.
Including his performance during the audition, Zhang Yuan came up with a total of four versions of the character and tone, each version was different.
The version in front of me is obviously the master of all.
“He combines the advantages of the first three.” Chen Shisan’s eyes also lit up: “This time it’s not bad at all.” After a long time, the two of them noticed Zhang Yuan's progress visibly.
"We are just playing it off, and we didn't choose the wrong person." Chen Shisan said angrily.
"Well, Nie Yuan's performance in the audition was nothing more than this, and he is obviously more advantageous in other aspects."
Nie Yuan did not expect that he was repeatedly "whipped to death" on the set even though he was not even offered a job.
