Chapter 263: You can’t do it alone
“Quick, quick, pull up!”
A group of people pulled up on a rope and soon pulled photographer Zhong Zhiwen out of the water .
Yang Ye hugged Zhong Zhiwen's legs and was dragged up.
Two buckets had been prepared on the shore, with hot water inside. The two of them were helped to sit in the buckets, and they felt warm.
"Ginger soup, ginger soup!"
Xu Feng personally held a bowl of ginger soup, supported Yang Ye, and fed him to drink. Zhong Zhiwen was also supported by others and fed ginger soup.
In winter, the stream in the mountain forest was extremely cold to the bone. The two of them stayed under the water for two minutes. As soon as they came up, they were trembling all over and couldn't hold the bowl at all.
Xu Feng fed Yang Ye a bowl of ginger soup. Regardless of the strange looks from others, he hugged Yang Ye and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
"I'm fine, let's take a look. Text! ”
Zhong Zhiwen went down with a scuba, and the conditions were actually much better than Yang Ye.
Yang Ye was naked and had to perform.
However, Yang Ye exercises every day and has never stopped for many years, and his physical fitness is much better than Zhong Zhiwen.
So he can still speak, but Zhong Zhiwen's two rows of teeth are fighting and he can't speak at all.
After finally regaining his composure, Zhong Zhiwen said: "I, I, I'm not...it's okay!"
"Did you get the shot?"
"The distance is a bit far and the effect is not very good!"
"Then take a rest first and continue shooting later."
Yang Ye is here After sitting in the hot water for a while, he regained his strength and crawled out. Xu Feng quickly dried him with a towel, then wrapped him in a blanket and said distressedly: "Why do you have to film an underwater scene on the first day? Wouldn’t it be better to wait until summer to shoot?”
Yang Ye said with a smile: “The stream water in summer is too turbid and the effect is not as good as in winter.”
There are very few underwater scenes in Chinese-language films these days, and even if they do, they are in a glass tank, and the photographer fools around with them through the glass.
Yang Ye wanted to shoot the scene of Mona Ludo dodging bullets under the stream, and he couldn't fool him at all.
So he specially bought a set of underwater photography equipment from Nikon and asked Zhong Zhiwen to wear scuba and follow him underwater to shoot.
Unfortunately, the conditions for underwater photography are too harsh, and the equipment these days is not very advanced.
Under the water, the longer wavelength red and orange light will be quickly absorbed by the water, making the picture appear blue.
Therefore, photographers must get as close to the subject as possible to reduce color loss.
This distance is unacceptable if it is more than one meter.
In the shooting just now, because the stream was too cold and the equipment was too heavy, Zhong Zhiwen couldn't adapt to it for a while, so he didn't grasp the distance well enough to achieve good results.
Yang Ye thought for a while and said: "Find a wooden stick and push it into the water. After you enter the water, Awen, hold the wooden stick and shoot. Don't move. I will jump directly in front of you. This way you won’t go wrong.”
This is a good idea. After Zhong Zhiwen had a rest, he went into the water and tried it. He simply tied himself to a wooden stick with a rope. Anyway, he had a scuba tank and couldn’t do it. drowning.
"3, 2, 1, Action!"
Yang Ye was optimistic about the position, jumped into the stream with a "swipe" sound, and landed accurately in front of Zhong Zhiwen...
Xu Feng stared at When the two minutes were up, the watch immediately shouted: "Quick, pull up!"
Everyone tried their best and pulled the two people up with wooden sticks.
Zhong Zhiwen made a trembling OK gesture, indicating that the shooting was successful.
...
Yang Ye and Zhong Zhiwen were wrapped in blankets and resting, while Hua Huiying took other photographers to continue shooting.
This scene is about Mona Ludo of the Mahepo tribe who has reached the age of fifteen. His father, Ludo Luhei, leads the tribe to help him out.
On one side of the stream, two hunters from the Ganzhuowan tribe were hunting. They killed a wild boar fiercely.
At this moment, the Mahpo tribe suddenly attacked and killed the two people with shotguns.
Mona Ludao appeared. He jumped into the stream, swam to the other side, raised the knife with his hand and dropped it, harvested two heads, and carried the wild boar that was killed by Ganzhuo people.
Not only kill people, but also steal the loot!
The struggle between tribes is so cruel and barbaric!
“Mona!”
“Mona, thousands of people are coming to Ganzhuo!”
"Run, hurry up!"
"Run, I don't want the wild boar!"
Mona is extremely tough, still refusing to give up the wild boar, and carries the wild boar on his shoulders He ran all the way, but because of this, the wild boar helped him block a shot.
The two tribes opened fire across the bank, each suffering casualties. Mona Rudao crossed the stream and successfully escaped!
……
After the group performance, Yang Ye came back on stage, and Ke Shouliang pointed out the locations of the bomb sites one by one to Yang Ye.
After reading it once, Yang Ye remembered them one by one and said it was ready to start shooting.
Then, Yang Ye entered the stream, and the recorder said: "Action!"
Yang Ye jumped out of the water and ran all the way according to the designed route, and the explosion point was Everything exploded around his feet, it was extremely thrilling!
“OK, perfect!”
Ke Shouliang sighed: "It's great to film with Mr. Yang. As long as you tell him once, he will remember it and he will never make a mistake."
Luo Lixian also said: "On the contrary, we are worried that we will make mistakes and he will get stuck. The point is too precise. If the dose of medicine is not determined, it may hurt him."
...
The Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1899 failed, the Beiyang Fleet was wiped out, and the Qing Dynasty ceded Taiwan Island to Japan. !
The Hakkas on the island refused to accept it, began to organize themselves, and carried out heroic resistance. This is the famous "Yiwei War",
The Yiwei War was the largest war in the history of the island of Taiwan. Hakkas were the main force, but Hokkien people, mainlanders, and aborigines also participated. The entire people resisted Japan and lasted for a year.
In this battle, the Japanese army dispatched two major regiments, the Guards Division and the Second Division, totaling more than 37,000 men and 7,000 horses, not including military men and logistics reserve troops. In the end, there were nearly 5,000 casualties, including a leading prince and a major general.
On the Taiwan side, about 33,000 regular troops were dispatched, and the number of civilian warriors and rebels was incalculable. Not only did they lose many generals in this war, but the Japanese army also carried out brutal and indiscriminate raids. , with at least 14,000 military and civilian casualties.
In the original version of "Sediq Bale", this war was briefly introduced in three scenes.
In the first scene, the Japanese generals held a meeting, pointed at the map of Taiwan and said: "Taiwan Island is the new territory of the empire, a land that has not yet received the emperor's favor. Although the people on the island are fierce and fierce, it is said that they will be armed There is no need to be afraid of the stragglers who resist our army. After landing at Keelung Port, a comprehensive sweep will be carried out from north to south. The islanders must no longer be aggressive and sincerely submit to our Sun Empire, especially the Youfan tribe. The heartland of the separatist regime..."
The Japanese general pulled out his command knife and pointed at the central mountain range on the map, "The mountains, forest farms, mines...infinite treasures here..."
In the second scene, the Hakka people organized to resist the Japanese invasion. , but it was a mob that was defeated in minutes.
In the third scene, the Japanese captured the leader of the resistance army and paraded him in public, surrounded by numb onlookers with pig tails.
Yang Ye made some modifications to this.
The first scene is copied from the original version;
The second scene shows the heroic resistance of the Hakka people against the Japanese army;
The third scene shows the Japanese army's brutal and indiscriminate raids on the Hakka villages.
Next, we return to the topic, telling about the aboriginal resistance to Japan.
A Japanese army crossed through the deep and steep Taroko Gorge and prepared to enter the central mountains where the indigenous people live. The Seediq people had already been waiting on the cliff for a long time based on the natural dangers.
“Put the stone in!”
At the command, the rocks on the cliff fell one after another, smashing the heads of the Japanese soldiers below.
The various tribes achieved unprecedented unity without prior communication.
......
"Railcar ready, Action!"
Zhong Zhiwen sat on the railcar, operating the camera to shoot close-ups of Yang Ye chasing the Japanese army.
I saw Yang Ye, dressed in Seediq clothes and holding a scimitar in his hand, rushing out and chasing a Japanese leader.
The amazing thing is that he actually maintained a relative speed with the rail car, allowing Zhong Zhiwen to perfectly take a picture of his stern face as he chased the enemy.
The proud Mona Rudo would never swing his knife from behind his enemy when mowing the grass.
He gave chase and passed a Japanese officer. He raised his knife and suddenly slashed it down... "How is it?"
"OK! The rhythm of running is so well controlled, I really admire it!"
Zhong Zhiwen has been a photographer for several years, and has filmed more than ten TV series for LiTV. He has never seen the camera feel before Such a good actor, his precise positioning makes people call him abnormal.
Yang Ye nodded and ordered: "Clean up the scene, clean up all the props and stones, don't leave garbage here to pollute the environment!"
Yang Ye ordered loudly, and suddenly someone shouted Said: "Director, your foot!"
Yang Ye lowered his head and looked: "Fuck, it's broken again. Doctor, please come over and wrap it up for me."
Seediq people do not wear shoes. Although Yang Ye specially made a batch of rubber shoes, the effect was only marginal.
Rubber shoes are often punctured in the mountains and forests, and since the toes are exposed, being accidentally kicked is common.
The filming took less than a month, and people were injured almost every day. Yang Ye himself was injured several times.
He is quite lucky. Every time, his skin is broken and he bleeds a little, but the damage is not very serious.
Several of the martial artists he brought with him had their feet punctured and were sent back to the city to recuperate.
"Damn, after eight years of filming, it has never been so miserable!"
Yang Ye complained, and deputy director Ding Shanxi laughed and said: "No one has made such a movie before, and never will in the future." Someone take the photo."
Hua Huiying nodded and said, "Yes, no one will spend so much energy telling the history of ethnic minorities like Mr. Yang."
Yang Ye thought to himself, it's not impossible. Hollywood later filmed "Pocahontas" and "Avatar", but their angles... were very strange.
For example, Disney's "Pocahontas" beautified the brutal colonial history of America.
Pocahontas has the face of an Indian princess but the body of a Caucasian. She is nothing more than an exotic, idealized beauty based on the aesthetics of Caucasian men.
And "Sediq Bale" does not make judgments and truly reproduces the cruel history of Taiwan's aborigines resisting Japanese aggression!
From this point of view, it is much more advanced than "Pocahontas" and "Avatar".
Of course, the highlight of "Pocahontas" is the beautiful singing and dancing, and the highlight of "Avatar" is the dazzling special effects.
Use advanced technology for commercial packaging, which even "Sediq Bale" cannot match!
...
The crew was filming everywhere in the mountains and forests every day, with countless extras coming in and out. Unknowingly, two months had passed.
Yang Ye has already played Mona Ludo's youth, and Zhang Shuping personally put on makeup to make him look like a middle-aged man with deep eyes, some gray hair, and a grooved face.
The filming continues, this is a scene where Mahpo and the Daoze tribe meet in the hunting ground.
Mona Ludo and Temuvaris met as enemies and became jealous. Kojima Genji, played by Hiroyuki Sanada, quickly ran out to smooth things over.
Kojima Genji grabbed Mona's gun and said: "Mona, don't get me wrong, my eldest son went hunting for the first time and I asked Tiemu to take me here!"
Mona was furious: "Then you shouldn't come to my hunting ground in Mahpo."
Tiemu Bubu said: "In my uncle's time, this place was originally our hunting ground in Daoze, and it was usurped by you guys."
A young man from the Mahepo tribe said arrogantly: "Your hunting ground? Then you can take it away again!"
Ojima Genji shouted: "That's enough!"
The Japanese went crazy and everyone suddenly became quiet.
Xiao Dao said: "Mo Na, give me a face, can you?"
Mona said: "Xiao Dao, if you are in Mahepo now, I will definitely give you face. But you are in Tumbala now, take these red-footed slugs with you and get away from my hunting ground."
"Kakaka..."
Dozens of rifles were loaded at once. , the fire is on the verge of breaking out.
At this moment, Kojima's son, who was only a few years old, said: "What is your hunting ground, my hunting ground? They all belong to us Japanese!" Everyone fell silent.
Yes, they all belong to the Japanese. Even the guns and ammunition used for hunting are all received from the Japanese. You must register the guns when you receive them, and return them when you use them.
What else are you fighting for? What a fight!
……
"OK, we just filmed here today. There are still two hours until dark. Hurry down the mountain. That kid just now, you did a great job. Chicken drumsticks for dinner!"
"Thank you, director!"
< br>Everyone packed up their things and went down the mountain. Yang Ye said to Ding Shanxi: "Old Ding, I have to take a leave. The first Academy Awards will be held in Hong Kong this year. I must give face to support them. You can take them with you these days. Team, just skip my play."
Ding Shanxi nodded and said: "Okay!"
Yang Ye went down the mountain without eating dinner. In less than two hours, We arrived at Lin Fengjiao’s home in Taipei.
Lin Fengjiao heard the doorbell ringing. When she opened the door, she saw a middle-aged man with a dark face and gray hair standing outside the door, wearing strange clothes. She couldn't help but look confused.
"Excuse me...Who are you looking for?"
"Gillian, you miss me so much!"
"Ye...Brother Ye?"
Yang Ye grinned, showing two rows of white teeth, and said: "You came directly from the set and didn't even have time to take off your makeup. Fortunately, you are at home."
"Come in, have you eaten?"
"No!"
"Then I'll cook you a bowl of noodles!"
"Okay, I'll wash up first Take a shower!"
Yang Ye walked into the bathroom, scrubbed himself, put on the clothes Lin Fengjiao had prepared for him, and walked out.
Lin Fengjiao had already cooked the noodles and was sitting at the dining table waiting for him.
Yang Ye walked over but did not eat the noodles. He picked up Lin Fengjiao and placed her on the dining table.
Lin Fengjiao exclaimed: "What are you doing, let's eat noodles first!"
Damn it, I have been holding it in for two months in the deep mountains and forests, of course I need to release it.
Xu Feng only stayed on the set for a few days before going home to take care of his baby.
After Yang Ye finished eating, Lin Fengjiao sat at the dining table and watched with satisfaction as Yang Ye ate the noodles.
“Are you reincarnated as a starving ghost?”
“I have been hiding in the deep mountains and forests for two months, and I am almost turning into a savage. How can I bear it!”
< br>Lin Fengjiao spat: "I'm talking about noodles, gangster!"
Yang Ye chuckled and said: "Have you seen Qingxia recently?"
"No, we each have a movie being filmed, so how can we have time to meet?"
Actually, this is just an excuse. They used to film separately and didn't see each other often.
It was because, a few months ago, after the two of them accompanied Yang Ye together, they felt very embarrassed when they met again, so they made a tacit agreement to avoid meeting each other.
"You are good sisters, how about this? Call Qingxia and ask her to come over!"
"No more..."
"When I return to Hong Kong tomorrow, won't you two come with me?"
"Oh!"
Lin Fengjiao thought it right, agreed, and ran to call Lin Qingxia.
Yang Ye made a good excuse, because Er Lin was both shortlisted for the Academy Awards, so naturally he had to go back with Yang Ye.
But in fact, Yang Ye called Lin Qingxia over because after holding it in the forest for two months, Lin Fengjiao alone could not withstand his fire!
