Chapter 90 I’ll let you go for now
After singing the birthday song, Yang Ye saw Hu Yinmeng’s face bursting with tears and joked: “It’s just a birthday, you don’t have to be so moved!”
Hu Yinmeng burst into tears and laughed, wiping his tears and said: "You two are big liars!"
Lin Qingxia said with a smile: "Of course there must be a surprise for your birthday, Yin Yin, make a wish Come on!"
Hu Yinmeng nodded with a smile, closed his eyes and made a wish, and blew out the candle in one breath.
Yang Ye clapped his hands and a sumptuous dinner was served.
After dinner, there was a lot of fuss and cakes were everywhere. Yang Ye secretly sighed, and he had to compensate for the cleaning expenses tomorrow.
Yang Ye took a shower and washed off the cake residue from his body. Feeling refreshed, he sat at his desk and drew the storyboard script.
After painting for more than half an hour, Hu Yinmeng came in with a cup of tea and put it on the table for him.
Yang Ye didn’t even raise his head, still painting with concentration.
Hu Yinmeng glanced at it curiously, and then froze.
Because Yang Ye is drawing a strange creature. The creature's head is a bit like a Shar-Pei dog, wrinkled. The proportions of the head with two eyes are extremely disproportionate, and they bulge outward.
Below the head is a thin neck, followed by a short body, a bit hunched over, and thin and long limbs. To describe it in one word, it is... extremely ugly.
She couldn't help but ask: "What did you draw?"
Yang Ye looked up at Hu Yinmeng and said: "Alien."
When he saw the hot tea on the table, he took a sip and asked in surprise: "Where did you get the oolong tea?"
Hu Yinmeng said: "You celebrated my birthday today and rewarded you. This is something I have never done before. The frozen oolong brought from Taiwan. "Then it was Qingxia's idea that you rewarded the wrong person."
"She fell asleep."
“Well, I have been filming every day recently and also have to practice horse riding, which is quite tiring.”
Hu Yinmeng didn't want to talk about Lin Qingxia, so she asked: "Isn't your alien painting too ugly?"
Yang Ye said: "Ugly is fine, the effect I want is... so ugly that it's only Mom will love him."
"Pfft!" Yang Ye's description made Hu Yinmeng laugh. "But, he doesn't look fierce at all, and he's quite pitiful."
"Why do you have to look fierce?"
"Aren't you going to fight aliens? ?”
"Who said that if I want to fight aliens, the earth can no longer accommodate me?"
"In those Hollywood movies, aliens always look evil, and you are a kung fu star, so I think You want to fight aliens.”
“No, this is a poor little alien. His parents accidentally lost him, and a little boy from Earth picked him up. So they became good friends. Look at his face, does it look like a Shar-Pei?"
Hu Yinmeng took a closer look and found that it looked a bit like it. She said incredulously: " So you want to keep aliens as pets?”
Yang Ye said nonchalantly: “When I was fifteen, my family got sick and left, leaving me alone in the city. In the village, people said at that time that I couldn’t keep my own house. I often imagined that I had an alien friend who would help me and defeat those people with bad intentions..."
Yang Ye made it up, and Hu Yinmeng suddenly felt very sorry for him.
Hu Yin dreamed that he was so young at that time and was alone in the crisis-ridden city. I don’t know how he survived?
His kung fu is so powerful, he must have been forced to practice it at that time, right?
Hu Yinmeng suddenly wanted to comfort Yang Ye and couldn't help but hug Yang Ye's head.
The two cuddled up silently for a while, and Yang Ye couldn't help but said: "That... Yin Yin."
"What?"
"I have a girlfriend."
"I know, there is more than one."
"Uh..." Yang Ye was speechless for a moment.
Hu Yinmeng let go of Yang Ye and said with a red face: "I see you are pitiful, I just want to comfort you."
She straightened her clothes, walked outside the house, walked a few steps, and finally stepped back, stared into Yang Ye's eyes, and asked: "Why don't you like me?"
"I don't dislike you." I like you! Isn’t it nice to you? Who else in this world would dare to be so arrogant to the boss?”
“Why don’t you chase me when you see a beautiful woman? "
Yang Yexin said, damn, this is the onset of Stockholm syndrome.
Hu Yinmeng is extremely confident in his appearance and thinks he can't lose to anyone. When she was in school, she received so many love letters that it could make a heavy snow fall from the sky. She would sit casually in a bar for a while, and there would be an endless stream of men coming over to chat up her.
But, for a year, she had been hanging around Yang Ye every day, and this guy didn't even look at her.
If Yang Ye was not interested in women and focused on her career, or was very single-minded and didn't love anyone except her girlfriend, then she wouldn't say anything. But this guy is obviously a bad person. When he sees a beautiful woman, he tries every means to pursue her... Hu Yinmeng refuses to accept it!
"Is it because I had a boyfriend?"
"Of course not, we didn't know each other at that time." Yang Ye denied it.
"You are, you despise me!"
Yang Ye was speechless: "Then how can you prove that I don't despise you?"
"I want to make love with you!" Hu Yinmeng said.
“Huh?” Yang Ye was shocked. Are you too direct? "No...Qingxia is still next door?"
"She fell asleep!"
"You are best friends, is it...not good for you to be like this?"
"You are still her boyfriend. She thinks about you every day in Taiwan, but you are still fooling around with that Adjani in the United States. "
"Well...you are right."
"You can do it or not."
"Just do it." Yang Ye. I was even aggrieved.
"Then you hug me." Hu Yinmeng said and closed his eyes.
She waited for a moment, but did not get the hug she was expecting. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She opened her eyes and said, "You still dislike me."
"Then...the atmosphere today is not good. That's right, it's quite embarrassing. Can it be done some other time? Besides, Qingxia is still next door, and it won't end well if she is discovered."
Hu Yin thought about it and thought it made sense, and said: " Well, I'll let you go today."
As he said this, he came up to Yang Ye, hugged her head, kissed her hard, then let go with a blushing face, turned around and walked away.
Yang Ye wiped his mouth and couldn't help complaining: "Damn it, why do I feel so strong?"
......
Yang Ye returned with the newly purchased equipment. When we arrived at the filming location, everyone on the crew was shocked.
Yang Ye introduced: "The name of this thing is called Titan. It is the largest swing arm in the world. It has a working radius of 17 feet, and after adding the extension arm, it reaches 29 feet. The viewing height is 27 feet. , with the addition of the traction arm, it can reach 37 feet.”
Hong Kong uses imperial units, so Yang Ye does not need to convert to metric units when making introductions. If converted, the two sets of data mentioned above are approximately five meters and eight meters. Nine meters, eleven meters.
"This big thing can hold three members of the camera crew, plus a director, a camera and two arc lights. For the need for quick balance adjustments, the pumped mercury can be quickly pumped from one end of the swing arm to the other. , with a driving weight of 12 tons, it can travel long distances. It took me two days to drive it over.”
Hu Jinquan’s mouth almost watered after listening to Yang Ye’s introduction. He couldn’t put it down. He touched the big guy on the ground and asked, "How much does it cost?"
"Nine hundred thousand dollars. Originally, there was only one in the world. It was only used in Hollywood to shoot large-scale war scenes. I never I started ordering it a year ago, so this is my second one. With this guy, it’s like a miracle to make martial arts movies.”
Limited to technical means, when Hu Jinquan made martial arts movies in the past, he could only show light skills. Using a trampoline, people take off on the trampoline, and then use montage editing techniques to give the audience the feeling of flying over a wall.
Now, using Titan coupled with Wia and Yang Ye’s wire elimination technique, almost unlimited possibilities can be achieved in the shooting of martial arts movies.
The kind of climbing on a cliff and crossing water in eight steps to catch cicadas and step on snow without a trace described in martial arts novels...all can be realized.
When Hu Jinquan was filming Heroine, it took a lot of effort to get Xu Feng and Jin Yiwei to perform a move in the air.
Now, you can do a hundred moves, and you can fly while fighting each other.
Hu Jinquan was so excited that he rubbed his hands and kept saying: "Great, great!"
Yang Ye smiled and said: "Let's do the work first. Ask someone to take this piece. The ground is leveled and the track is laid. This circus must be a success!”
Since Yang Ye proposed that Luo Xiaohu and Yu Jiaolong should fight non-stop on horseback, it would be difficult for Hu Jinquan to die.
Under high-speed movement, the camera cannot focus, and the photographer cannot even control the balance.
Not to mention the video that was shot was shaky, it was all made of flowers.
Hu Jinquan shouted: "Start work, start work!"
With the new equipment, everyone was very motivated, and Yang Ye and Lin Qingxia also played very hard.
After more than half a month, the scene between Xiaolong and Xiaohu in the desert was finally completed.
Yang Ye compared the cut-out film with the original version. Not only was it not inferior, it was even more exciting.
Li Yin is a screenwriter. His grasp of color was very rough in the early stage, and he could not reach the top in the later stage. Zhang Yimou was much better than him.
As for Zhang Yimou’s colors, he actually learned them from Akira Kurosawa and King Hu.
Therefore, under the control of Hu Jinquan, the texture of this desert scene is completely superior to Li Yin's version.
Yang Ye is very much looking forward to what the whole film will look like!
