One day later, the convoy arrived at the Yellow River Stone Forest.
Here are the most important scenes in "Myth".
At the beginning of the movie, there is a battle between Meng Yi’s bride-grooming team and the North Korean bride-snatching team.
At the end of the movie, Meng Yi escorts the elixir and fights the rebels.
It all happened in this place.
Yang Ye led people to check the terrain, and after determining the shooting location, he discussed with the photographer how to set up the camera.
While selling his face, he won the support of the local government and transferred a thousand armed police officers and soldiers to him.
If Yang Ye wants to shoot a war scene, ordinary group actors will not work. The best way is to use soldiers.
These armed police officers and soldiers are usually well-trained. After changing into Qin Jia, they become the tiger and wolf division of Great Qin.
Although the original "Myth" has a large scene, the production is relatively perfunctory.
The Qin army did not wear Qin armor. The North Korean bride-snatching team was armed with fine steel knives.
Nima, two thousand years ago, the peninsula could produce this kind of weapon, and it would have been easy to unify Eurasia. So why would there be any need to send the princess to Da Qin for marriage?
Zhang Yimou's "Hero" was very good at serving Dao, so Yang Ye also invited Wada Emi to design costumes for "Myth".
After receiving Yang Ye's invitation last year, Wada Emi came to Xi'an to collect styles. It took more than half a year to complete the costume design of "Myth".
This woman's control over details has reached an extremely critical level, unparalleled in the entire Asian film industry.
In "Hero", she experimented with the blending and dyeing methods of various fabrics, spending every day in the dyeing workshop to achieve 54 different kinds of red.
In the scene where Li Lianjie and Donnie Yen duel in the rain, she had to experiment with the dry and wet color effects of gray fabrics.
It has a bit of a Japanese "XX Immortal" meaning, but the final effect is indeed impeccable.
Of course, the sword in "Hero" is not quite right either.
Well... I, Da Qin, can have it, but you, North Korea, can't have it.
...
Between the towering mountains, a group of cavalry drove through the wilderness, their black armor reflecting the cold sun, and their bright red flags fluttering in the wind.
The sound of horse hooves was like thunder, and the dust on the ground was scattered.
Yang Ye was covered in armor with a black horse on his hip. He looked at the marching team below and felt very satisfied.
He suddenly understood what "gold and iron horses" meant.
This is my Great Qin Cavalry!
Yang Ye greeted Zhong Zhiwen and said, "Awen, I'm going down, take better pictures."
Zhong Zhiwen made an OK gesture, and Yang Ye lifted the reins. He galloped down the mountain and joined the Qin army.
In the distance, He Jiajin came galloping on a horse and reported to Yang Ye: "General, the princess's team has entered our Daqin territory."
Yang Ye waved his hand: "Get ready to welcome ! ”
...
The next step is to shoot the scene of the war.
Tang Jili is good at action scenes, but shows his timidity in war scenes.
For example, in the original film, the North Korean bride-snatching team pushed down a giant burning fireball from the mountain. Meng Yi rushed over on horseback and kicked the fireball away with a kick of his horse's hooves. This...
For another example, the princess's horse was frightened and the coachman was shot to death. Seeing that the carriage was about to fall into the cliff, Meng Yi stepped forward to rescue him and pulled the reins of the horse desperately, causing the carriage to get stuck on the edge of the cliff. Not falling off a cliff.
At this time, the princess's fiancé arrived. Normally, he should step forward to rescue the princess first, because she was his lover.
So what did the fiancé do? He picked up another rein and tied it to himself.
This operation is very accurate. However, just when the audience thought he was going to fight zombies with Meng Yi and save the princess, he raised his sword and said to Meng Yi: "Draw your sword, Saonian, let's We completed our respective missions.”
Then, the two men cut each other with a rein tied to each other, regardless of whether the princess died or not.
Wori, the princess has a saying in her heart that she doesn’t know whether to say or not. Can you two rescue me first and then have a duel?
When they were cutting each other, the carriage was going up and down, which looked very thrilling.
As soon as they saw that the carriage was about to fall, they pulled it back as hard as they could, pulled it to the edge of the cliff, and continued to chop.
While he was chopping, the carriage was about to fall down again, so he pulled it back a little.
The princess opened the car door with a look of horror on her face, her little heart pounding in fear.
Maler Gobi, can't you two take a few more steps?
...
Yang Ye modified this paragraph and added a rebel line.
The rebels existed in the second half of the movie and eventually killed Meng Yi.
Yang Ye is added at the beginning, which can be regarded as echoing from beginning to end.
In the revised plot, the fiancé rescued the princess first.
His purpose is to take away the princess, while Meng Yi's mission is to protect the princess, so the two have a duel, and only the living person can achieve his mission.
While the two were dueling, the rebels appeared, and their purpose was to destroy the marriage and prevent Meng Yi from completing his mission.
During the duel between Meng Yi and the princess’s fiancé, the rebels fired cold arrows, and the fiancé sacrificed his life to block the arrows in order to save the princess.
But another cold arrow hit the horse and the carriage lost control. Meng Yi flew to the rescue and fell off the cliff with the princess in his arms.
……
After many tests and confirmation of safety, the Wi-Fi team came over to report: "Director, Wi-Fi is ready!"
Yang Ye nodded: "Let's start!"
Meng Yihe The scene where the princess fell off a cliff was shot on a real cliff.
The wire group prepared two groups of wires, one group hung Yang Ye and Cui Zhenzhen, and the other group hung the photographer.
During the filming, Yang Ye and Cui Zhen were in front, and Zhong Zhiwen personally carried the camera behind. The two groups of people kept falling horizontally to complete the shooting.
Cui Zhenzhen glanced down at the cliff, a little frightened.
Yang Ye said calmly: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you!"
Cui Zhenzhen was raised by Yang Ye and trusted Yang Ye very much. She nodded seriously and said: "I'm not afraid!"
The staff came forward to help the two people tie up the wires. After everything was settled, the recorder made a call and the filming officially started.
After giving an order, Yang Ye held Cui Zhenzhen in his arms, and the two quickly fell from the cliff.
Cui Zhenzhen heard the howling of the wind in her ears, and her beauty was a little pale, but being held in Yang Ye's arms, she felt safe again and quickly calmed down.
As long as Yang Ye is protecting her, she has nothing to fear.
......
After filming for a month in the Yellow River Stone Forest, after completing all the scenes for this sub-scene, the crew was divided into two teams. Yuan Bin led the team to Shenzhen Guangming Film and Television City to decorate the scene of the Heavenly Palace. .
Yang Ye took people to the Jinshanling Great Wall in Chengde to film the famous scene of Princess Yushu dancing gracefully for Meng Yi.
It was early winter, but the snow had not yet fallen. The crew first found a place with the Great Wall on its back to shoot the famous scene.
Yu Shu waved his hands happily and shouted towards Meng Yi: "General Meng Yi, come on, come on!"
Yu Shu opened his arms and embraced the warm morning sun, Facing the morning wind, he said: "This is the first time I feel so free, without the constraints of palace etiquette. It's so beautiful!"
Meng Yi stood behind Yu Shu, seeing her happy, he also Then he laughed: "This is the first time that I have seen Concubine Li smile."
Yu Shu looked at Meng Yi and saw that he did not dare to look directly at her, so he asked: "Why don't you dare to look at me?"
"The general will not dare!"
"Don't say this again. In other words, don’t take away this feeling. From now on, I won’t call you general, okay, Meng Yi?” And fell down, revealing her close-fitting dress.
The skirt and belt were flying in the wind, Yu Shu said: "I really want to dance, can I dance for you?"
"Concubine Li, you must not do it. In the whole world, only the emperor can see it."
"I dance this dance only for you!"
She opened her arms. , dancing gracefully, with clothes flying and hair flying.
......
Yang Ye stood in front of Cui Zhen, watching her dance gracefully, blooming in front of him like a flower.
A song seemed to ring in Yang Ye's ears.
"Let love be the flower that blooms forever in our hearts, the dream that will never bow its head and never give up through time and space..."
In the sad and lingering music, Cui Zhenshi seems to be really She turned into the unlovable Princess Yushu.
There was hope in her eyes, as if to say, I don’t want to go to Xianyang, you can take me wherever you go, I want to be with you...
In a moment, Yang Ye seemed to be moved by her.
Mengyi who went to hell, I just want to hold her hand and take her to escape to the ends of the earth...
Cui Zhenshi’s dance is quite good. After dancing, everyone was amazed. Everyone applauded.
Yang Ye also came to his senses, applauded and said; "Zhenzhen, good acting!"
Cui Zhenzhen smiled shyly: "I have been practicing for a long time!"
< br>……
In the evening, the crew moved to the side where the Great Wall could be seen to shoot another scene.
Meng Yi led Yu Shu with a wooden stick, and the two of them climbed over the mountains and ridges, when a towering Great Wall suddenly appeared in front of them.
Meng Yi's mood suddenly relaxed: "We have reached the Great Wall. This is our national border. After climbing over this mountain, we will go to Xianyang. Concubine Li, you are safe now! I finally I can complete my mission.”
Yu Shu’s heart became heavy. After this journey, she had fallen in love with Meng Yi.
She said bravely: "No, I don't want to go to Xianyang. You can take me anywhere, as long as I'm with you. I don't want to marry Emperor Qin."
Meng Yi was silent after listening to Yu Shu's words. He was a minister of the First Emperor and a general of the Qin Dynasty. He must complete his mission.
But how come he never had feelings for Yu Shu?
Yu Shu looked at Meng Yi's expression and knew that he would not betray Qin Shihuang. He sat slumped on the ground and murmured: "Why do we try our best to survive, but in the end we can only be slaves to fate? When will we... be free? "
Meng Yi still didn't speak, but there were faint tears in his eyes.
……
After filming the Jinshanling Great Wall scene, Yang Ye parted ways with the crew again.
Everyone else went to Shenzhen, and Yang Ye went to Wuhan.
He was invited to participate in the 10th China Film Golden Rooster Awards.
Since I am in the country, it is impossible not to go there.
Two days later, Yang Ye arrived in Wuhan, and the Golden Rooster Awards organizing committee sent someone to pick him up.
Yang Ye got in the car and followed the people from the organizing committee to the hotel where he was staying.
The car was speeding on the highway, and not long after, it drove onto the Yangtze River Bridge.
Yang Ye looked through the car window and saw the Yellow Crane Tower on Snake Mountain in the distance. It was both familiar and unfamiliar, and he couldn't help but feel filled with emotion.
Suddenly, he felt dizzy and fainted. (End of this chapter)
