Chapter 198 The New Novel of Demonic Transformation
Zhang Minyi made four dishes and one soup, and then heard the sound of turning the door lock.
As soon as Yang Ye entered the door, he hugged the eldest sister, kissed her on the lips, and said, "Have you cooked so many dishes?"
Zhang Minyi said with a smile: " Wash your hands and eat!”
Yang Ye shook his head and said infatuatedly: “Eat you first!”
As he said that, he picked up Zhang Minyi and walked to the bedroom...
When the two of them finished, the dishes were completely cold, so they reheated them and sat down to eat.
Zhang Minyi peeled a prawn for Yang Ye and asked: "What have you done recently? You always go to the police station and even make the news on the social media."
Yang Ye He sighed and said, "I have no choice. I want to shoot a car chase scene and an explosion scene in the city, but the Hong Kong government won't let me shoot them, and they won't block the roads, even if I have to pay. I can only secretly shoot them in the middle of the night."
Yang Ye is an entertainment star. He is always on the headlines of social media recently, and there is no one like him.
A month ago, the crew of "Terminator" caused an explosion in Yau Ma Tei. Although they had taken care of the nearby neighbors in advance, they still alerted the police, and finally Ko Shouliang got involved. Yang Ye paid the money and released the person on bail before the matter was over.
Half a month ago, the crew of "Terminator" staged a racing scene in the Hung Hom Cross-Harbour Tunnel at 3 o'clock in the middle of the night. They also threw bombs, almost causing a traffic accident, and then escaped. Although the police did not arrest anyone, they determined that it was the crew of "Terminator" who did it.
Three days ago, the crew of "Terminator" detonated an oil tanker under a viaduct near the Kwun Tong Industrial Area. The fire spread into the sky. This time Law Lai-hsien was caught.
Although someone took the blame every time, the police determined that it was Yang Ye who did it and have summoned him several times.
Zhang Minyi said: "I think you should restrain yourself a little. These things have a great impact on your personal image. Some newspapers have said that you are a terrorist!"
Yang Ye grinned: "Are you paying attention to my news?"
Zhang Minyi said harshly: "You will see it when you read the newspaper in the morning!"
Yang Ye ate the shrimp peeled by Zhang Minyi in one bite , and took the opportunity to suck on her finger, and then said: "The scale of Hong Kong movies has officially surpassed Japanese movies, becoming the second largest production base in the world. I think the Hong Kong government's laws need to be changed."
Zhang Minyi was surprised: "Change the law?"
Yang Ye nodded and said: "When I filmed "Fast Food Truck", it was because the city did not allow car chase scenes to be filmed, so I simply I went to France to film. After "Fast Truck" came out, many people followed the trend, which made Hong Kong action movies officially transform from Kung Fu movies in the early Republic of China to fashion Kung Fu movies.
But they can't all go to foreign countries to shoot like I did. The cost is too high, and there is no sense of immersion in foreign countries. Nowadays, many people are filming car chases and explosion scenes in the city. It's just that they didn't make as much noise as I did. In the future, shooting this kind of movie in the city will definitely become the norm.
The Hong Kong government cannot ban it. At worst, we will take photos secretly, but this is very risky and may lead to accidents. For example, if you film a street shootout, robbery, etc., and alert the police, the shootout might become real. So, why not go with the flow and make laws about filming car explosions? Movies produced in this way will be more popular, and they can also pay more taxes to the Hong Kong government, right? ”
In the 1980s, when Hong Kong films were at their most glorious, the film crew was under great pressure to shoot a drag racing scene because the government would not block the roads.
What should we do?
The crew I took the equipment and shot hard, then ran away after the collision.
No shooting was allowed. The actors went to Nathan Road to rob with fake guns. Several cameras secretly filmed the scene. They were unlucky. When they met plainclothes, they all went to the police station.
Getting into trouble is a very troublesome thing, at least it will affect the filming progress.
The shooting conditions and budget of Hong Kong films actually do not allow for these things, so to save trouble, Hong Kong films often start fighting for no apparent reason.
At this time, most of the scripts for Hong Kong films were very crude. Many times they only had an outline, and they were thought up while filming.
When the director looked at the script, he saw that it only had more than thirty scenes, which was not long enough.
A movie must be at least ninety minutes long, so I closed the notebook and said, "Two minutes first!"
How to play? The director doesn't care, leave it to the action director and you can think of it yourself.
The actors beat in various ways. Today they beat on the street, tomorrow they go to the firecracker factory, to the grocery store, to the hospital, to the kitchen...
The venue was renovated, The movements also need to be renovated, use a bench to beat, use a wire to beat, use a towel to beat, use a tie to beat...
When you see any utensil, think about how it should be used to beat.
Therefore, action guidance does not require high martial arts skills, but requires the ability to use one's brain and imagination.
Yuan Heping is known as "the best martial artist in the world", but his kung fu is the worst among his brothers.
It is precisely because of this weird shooting mode that the world-famous Hong Kong action movies were created.
Yang Ye said: "I think your Broadcasting Office should take responsibility, speak for our film company, make suggestions to the Hong Kong government, and ask the Department of Political Science and Law to formulate laws regarding the filming of speeding explosion scenes. This is not only convenient. We are also your political achievements."
Zhang Minyi thought it was reasonable and said: "It's a pity that I can't make the decision, but I can give advice to the director."
Yang Ye said: "Thank you so much."
"Why are you so polite to me?"
Yang Ye shook her hand and said, "Of course I'm not polite to you, But this matter is closely related to all the entertainers in Hong Kong. I want to thank you on their behalf.”
“I’m just giving advice, and the director may not listen.”
“It’s already very important. Okay, by the way...does this count as personal use for me..."
"Does that count as a public instrument for you?"
"Um..."
Yang Ye thought to himself, there are actually quite a few people using it.
Seeing that Yang Ye was frustrated, Zhang Minyi chuckled and said: "I think your idea is very reasonable, so I decided to mention it here. Don't think too much."
" That’s it!”
Yang Ye agreed, but he was thinking in his heart: "Damn it, in order to establish a law, I even used a beauty trick. Those Hong Kong film companies, such as Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers... I have to give you a thumbs up."
The next step depends on whether Zhang Minyi can promote the proposal at the Broadcasting Office. Once successful, Yang Ye can use his influence to mobilize public opinion and build momentum.
But this matter can’t be rushed, just wait!
The original time and space bill was not passed until 1998. However, at that time, Hong Kong movies were already half-dead, and passing it would be of no use.
Zhang Minyi's position is still too small, and she has to find a way to get promoted, at least to the director of the Broadcasting Department.
...
During this period, Yang Ye has successfully acquired the scattered shares of some small shareholders of Lishi. These scattered shares are mainly in the hands of some British people.
The situation in this era has undergone some changes. The People's Liberation Army is too powerful, which makes these British guys uneasy. Since someone is willing to buy it at a premium, they will quickly get rid of it.
However, this small amount of shares is of little use, and Yang Ye must make persistent efforts.
With the help of Huang Xizhao, Yang Ye quickly met Guo Zhiliang, the chairman of Yongan Group. Yongan Group held 5% of Lishi shares.
Wing On Department Store is the second largest Chinese-owned department store in Hong Kong, with five branches. They originally had two branches in Shanghai, but they were later classified as state-owned and renamed Dongfanghong Department Store. These two stores are still there, and they were renamed Yong'an Department Store.
Wing On Department Store is worth about 200 million Hong Kong dollars. To say that it is rich, in Hong Kong, it is nothing.
But in the department store industry, there is a lot of cash in hand, and the Guo brothers are not short of money at all. It is really not that easy for Yang Ye to win this share.
Guo Zhiliang said with a smile: "Yang Sheng, since those ghost guys will run away sooner or later and Lishi's future is unclear, why do you want to acquire Lishi?"
Yang Ye said: "Gui guys He ran away, so I just happened to take over.”
Guo Zhiliang added: "Yang Sheng's rise has only lasted six years. It is rumored that your net worth is at least three billion. Since you are extremely talented in entertainment, wouldn't it be better for me to take the dividends after you take over Lishi? Why sell? "Ah! What he said made sense, but Yang Ye was speechless.
Yang Ye said: "Let's not talk about this for now, how about we do a business?"
Guo Zhiliang said strangely: "What business?"
"The Baiyang Cinema Line plans to open a large multiplex theater in Causeway Bay with 1,200 seats and a supporting handicraft store.
But there is no vacant land to build a building in Causeway Bay, and we won't be able to find anyone to transfer it for a while, so we plan to find a department store and rent the first floor as a venue. ”
Yang Ye’s six Donglai Plazas are not located in the most prosperous places in Hong Kong, but they are still prosperous. The secret is of course the result of integrated management of entertainment, shopping and catering.
A large movie theater brings thousands of potential customers to department stores every day, even more if it is a holiday or when a blockbuster movie is released.
Idiots will calculate this, ever since. After the Donglai Plaza model came out, Hong Kong's department store business practitioners were jealous. Unfortunately, not everyone can open a theater. Without a stable film source, it is useless even if you open it.
And Yang Ye pointed out. Leasing space in a department store is obviously great news for the Guo family
This move can not only earn rent, but also bring a large number of customers to the mall.
However, there are many department stores in Causeway Bay, including the Chinese-owned Xianshi, the Japanese-owned Daimaru, and the British-owned Marks & Spencer...
What advantages does Wing On have compared with these? Woolen cloth?
Yang Ye proposed to open a theater at this time, and it was clear that he wanted to make a deal with the Guo brothers.
You sell me the shares, and I will open a theater in your shopping mall, otherwise I will go next door and do it first.
Since both parties have their own needs, the business is easy to negotiate.
In the end, Yang Ye rented the sixth floor of Wing On Department Store Causeway Bay store as the new location of the cinema.
The Kwok family sold 5% of Lishi shares to Yang Ye for HK$8 million.
At this time, Yang Ye’s shareholding had reached 17.2%, becoming Lishi’s second largest shareholder.
……
Unknowingly, it was the part of the movie shooting process that Yang Ye was most looking forward to.
That’s the sex scene!
Yang Ye once hoped to have a different heroine in every movie, and then shoot sex scenes with each heroine.
Unfortunately, in his first movie, he played a bald donkey and there was no sex scene.
This is really a death before the battle is launched, which makes the hero burst into tears!
As for this "Terminator", Yang Ye originally wanted to find Yang Ziqiong to act. Considering that Yang Ziqiong had not made his debut yet, it would be too strange to go to Malaysia to find someone, so he decided to change the actor.
Then, with a twitch of the head, Lin Qingxia was asked to act.
Lin Qingxia is good, but Yang Ye has already done a sex scene with her in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and the two are now an old couple. They feel no passion for the sex scene this time. .
The crew found a small hotel, booked a room, and finished filming in minutes.
The original version of Sarah showed her nakedness, but Lin Qingxia did not. She only took off her clothes and showed off her back.
Moreover, the opening scene of the Terminator showing off the bird was also omitted.
Finally, in this "Terminator", Yang Ye, Cheng Kui'an, and Liu Hua all exposed their butts.
Sex scenes need to be filmed with unfamiliar actors to make them more interesting!
Yang Ye secretly vowed that he would never partner with an actress again, unless it was a series of movies.
Yang Ye did not expect that a decision he made casually at this time would become evidence that fans said he loved Lin Qingxia the most many years later.
Because he basically only hooks up with other actresses once, unless there is a sequel.
I took a ride with Lin Qingxia five times.
......
After filming a car chase scene, Yang Ye said: "Next, I will go to Taiwan for an outdoor scene, and the rest will be all indoor scenes."
The remaining chamber drama mainly has two parts:
One is about the future war part, involving the battle scenes between humans and T1 battlefield robots. This part was all shot in a studio.
One is the final decisive battle, where T800 shows its true form for the first time.
After a big battle, Li Kai used a bomb to blow up the Terminator and was killed himself.
But the Terminator was still not dead, dragging his body and continuing to chase Yang Lisa. Eventually, Lisa used a hydraulic press to crush it into a pile of scrap metal, leaving only a complete mechanical hand.
This part is the most difficult to shoot. In order to make the metal robot T800 look like it can move freely, it is necessary to use time-lapse shooting and chase it frame by frame, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Yang Ye originally planned to find a factory and rent their workshop for filming, but... the cost was too high, so he might as well build his own.
In the end, it was decided to combine the two, and shoot the actual scene when entering the factory, and then shoot some panoramic shots to set up the details of the decisive battle.
After the plan was finalized, Yang Ye flew to Taipei with his troops.
In addition to filming on location, I also have to participate in the Golden Horse Awards.
……
"The Swordsman" leads this year's Golden Horse Awards with eight nominations, so the crew will naturally go to Taiwan to participate.
Taking two crews to Taiwan at the same time gave Yang Ye a headache.
Guan Zhilin was so happy when she heard that the crew was going to Taiwan that she pestered Yang Ye to go shopping with her every day.
Yang Ye thought about it and thought that a lot of women collided together. The scene was too beautiful for him to look at, so he kept Guan Zhilin in Hong Kong on the grounds that those who were not shortlisted did not have to go to Taipei.
Guan Zhilin was furious, but Chen Yulian breathed a sigh of relief. Before, she thought she was going to Taiwan with Yang Ye, so she was a little nervous.
After Yang Ye and his party checked into the hotel, Lin Qingxia went home to see her parents.
In addition to going home to take care of the baby, Yang Ye has been spending time with Lin Qingxia recently, and has been a bit neglectful of Hu Yinmeng. As soon as Lin Qingxia left, Yang Ye rubbed his hands and said, "Yinyin, where are we going to eat tonight?"
Hu Yinmeng said: "You can eat by yourself, I want to go home to see my dad!" ”
After saying that, he picked up the bag and chased Lin Qingxia away.
"Well...if I had known I would have brought Guan Jiahui here."
Yang Ye complained, sat at the hotel table, took out a stack of manuscript paper, and began to write.
After a year's rest, this guy started copying books again.
But this time it’s a little different. It’s not a copy, but an attempt to adapt a Western fantasy novel into an Eastern fantasy novel.
The story is roughly about an orphan whose parents died. He lived in a relative's house since he was a child and his life was miserable.
One day, a crane sent a mysterious letter inviting him to Kunlun Fairy Mountain.
As a result, this child became a cultivator in Kunlun Mountain. He made many friends and learned to fly with a sword...
