Chapter 38 Perfect Presentation
Because it is already winter, the crew has to return to a nearby county to stay every night. In the largest hotel in the county, Zhang Duo's room was made into a temporary small projection room, and Jin Yutang, Gu Zongling, Du Wenhui and Chen Feiyang sat scattered. Only two scenes were played on the screen. Ji Liancheng took three scenes of walking in the snow with Jiang Ruixue in his arms, while the scene of beating tigers was filmed for two days.
On the screen, a large panorama, pushing the camera, a gorgeous tiger roared from the distant forest in the vast forest and snowfield. A big man in the back was dressed in animal skin, with a long iron fork, and hurriedly chased.
Panoramic view, the tiger's body is brown and yellow, and its body is huge, and it is very powerful to run.
Middle scene, showing the upper body of the tiger. Close-up, the hair on the tiger's head was visible, and he suddenly opened his mouth and roared in a low voice.
In the middle scene, Xiao Feng stood up with his head held high and was majestic. He shouted, "Brother, I'll help you fight the tiger!"
In the panorama, Xiao Feng turned his back to the camera and rushed over to stop the tiger's way.
Zhongjing, the actor who played Wanyan Aguda was shocked when he saw Xiao Feng rushing out and shouted, but it was not Han Chinese.
In the middle scene, Xiao Feng raised his right hand and pointed it at the tiger's forehead.
In the panoramic view, Xiao Feng, who turned his back to the camera, slapped him, and the tiger turned over and fell a somersault, roared like thunder, and rushed to Xiao Feng again.
In the middle scene, the wind is strong on the snow, and the tiger follows the wind and rushes to the camera. It is majestic and unstoppable.
Close-up, the tiger opened his mouth and roared.
In the middle scene, Xiao Feng was not afraid of the wind and snow and praised loudly: "Good guy, I really have yours!"
Panorama, Xiao Feng, with his back to the camera, opened his body sideways, and his right hand swived from top to bottom. With a wipe, he cut between the tiger's waist.
quan jing, the tiger rushed forward a few steps, staggered, and immediately jumped away desperately.
In the panorama, Xiao Feng grabbed two steps, grabbed the tiger's tail with his right hand, grabbed the tiger's tail, shouted loudly, and caught the tiger's tail with his left hand.
In the panoramic view, Xiao Feng, who turned his back to the camera, tried his best to pull back with his hands. The tiger was spontaneously rushing forward and being pulled by him like this. Two forces burst out, and the tiger flew straight into the air.
In the middle scene, the tiger opened its mouth in mid-air, stretched out its claws, and fell from the air.
quan jing, Xiao Feng gave a shout, rubbed his body, put his palms out together, patted a muffled sound, and hit the tiger's belly. The tiger's belly is soft. This move of "rowing clouds and palms" is exactly Xiao Feng's proudgong fu. The big insect broke its internal organs, rolled on the ground for a while, and fell into the snow and died.
In the middle scene, Wanyan Agu hit his hand with an iron fork and saw Xiao Feng with his bare hands and killed a tiger cleanly. At first, his face was stunned, and immediately his face was full of admiration.
After seeing it, a group of people in Zhang Duo's room were all stunned. Except for Jin Yutang, who had just come here, the rest of them watched Zhang Duo on the set, but they never thought that the effect would be so good.
After Gu Zongling and Du Wenhui clashed with Zhang Duo, he lost his usual politeness when he saw Zhang Duo again. They have been on the set, ready to watch Zhang Duo's jokes and grab his handle.
But after their observation, they were shocked. That Duo was really as clever as he boasted, as a demon. It's clear that he hasn't been on the set and hasn't even touched the camera. But he was modest and easy to learn and not ashamed to ask questions, but in just one day, he became familiar with all the things of the crew. Chen Feiyang is also dishonest and shameless. A senior director in his forties put down his body and taught Zhang Duo carefully.
Zhang Duo filmed the scene of Xiao Feng walking in the snow with A Zi in his arms. The first shot was sloppy, and the second one was NG due to the actor's problems, and the third one was extremely refreshing.
When shooting the tiger scene and seeing the "little boy" acting coquettish with Ji Liancheng, Du Wenhui sneered: "Isn't this Duo suffering from heartlessness? If he puts the tiger-play behind, as his experience improves, he may be able to barely see people. Now, he can't control it at all.
Gu Zongling laughed and said, "Young people are always ambitious. He may want to take this play and prove his strength to investors and crew."
Du Wenhui said disdainfully, "I think he is delusional!" In the Chinese film and television industry, even Wu Song, directed by you, dare not say that he used a real tiger in the whole process of fighting tigers. As a novice director, he dares to be so arrogant. Humph, this tiger uncle is not so easy to serve. He will suffer in a long time!"
Gu Zongling obviously recalled the past and said with emotion, "This Uncle Hu is really difficult to serve!"
There are two main difficulties in shooting tiger fighting scenes. First, tigers can't enter the play at any time like actors. They often lose their temper and jump out of the fence to take a nap. And this often scares the crew. However, this problem can be solved. After all, the tiger filming is professionally trained. It is okay to roar a few times at the camera and do a few tiger movements.
And the most difficult part is to play. No matter how tame the tiger is, it is still a beast. Several actors dare to fight tigers. It pounced on you, and you were afraid that it couldn't help biting you. You hit it, but you were afraid that the tiger would get angry, and it would tear you up a few times.
So in previous domestic film and television dramas, the tiger-play usually hired a tiger from the zoo, let it walk a few steps in the camera, run twice, roar, and then make a few tigers. People who really fight with actors are dressed as puppets.
And Gu Zongling's "Wu Song" has only made a slight improvement, giving the tiger anesthetic on the basis of his predecessors. At the onset of the drug effect, the tiger obviously staggered and almost couldn't stand, so he let Ji Liancheng fight with it a few times. After the tiger fell asleep, he let Ji Liancheng ride on the tiger's back and beat him.
Such a little improvement has made the tiger-playing filming exciting. But they never thought that Zhang Duo not only made a tiger play, but also used a real tiger all the way. In broad daylight, the tiger's hair looked real. Compared with Wu Song fighting tigers at night, Xiao Feng's death of tigers during the day will be more shocking.
Jin Yutang was shocked by Zhang Duo. He impatiently asked Zhang Duo how he took this set of shots.
Zhang Duo said with a smile, "It's difficult to shoot tiger-plays. The key is that actors dare not fight tigers, but there are people who often fight tigers!"
Jin Yutang suddenly realized: "You mean the animal trainer?"
Zhang Duo said with a smile, "Yes, after NG that day, I saw the trainer put the tiger in a cage, picked up the stick and beat him, but the tiger didn't even dare to get angry. I asked the trainer, do you usually fight like this? He told me that the tiger had been taming since birth, eating meat and sticking, and being beaten if he was disobedient. I asked him if he dared to hit the tiger outside the cage? The trainer immediately hesitated and finally said that there was no problem in hitting it a few times without a stick. It was too fierce to dare.
"I was overjoyed and asked him if he dared to be a stand-in for Ji Liancheng. He paid him for an episode according to his value. As the saying goes, wealth and silk touched people's hearts. He thought that he would have tens of thousands of yuan just by playing a few "little boy", so he agreed."
The trainer is tall and matches Ji Liancheng's figure. After putting on makeup, it is difficult to see the difference from the back. Therefore, in this set of scenes, any scenes that do not show their faces are completed by stand-in. In the end, Xiao Feng killed the tiger, but it was Ji Liancheng himself. Of course, it was also the credit of the anesthetic.
Although others have seen how Zhang Duo shot this scene, their hearts are still stirring when they hear him talk about it again. And Jin Yutang is simply admirable. He clapped his hands and praised, "Aduo, although you are still a novice, you are smart enough. You can easily take down such a difficult play. Your future achievements are really unlimited!"
Zhang Duo waved his hand modestly and said with a smile, "There, it's just good luck. Thanks to the good temper recommended by Brother Liancheng, the trainer is desperate for money, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy!"
Everyone heard it, but burst out laughing. Jin Yutang said, "A Duo, it would be a pity if you don't speculate on such a good topic. I'm going to inform the media to publicize this whole process with the real tiger-play. What do you think?
Zhang Duo said, "That's not the best. We can provide some photos first, take more pictures after a period of time, and then cut out a few shots from them to make trailers. The media's attention will definitely come up."
It has been agreed that Jin Yutang is responsible for publicity. Once the news came out, it once again caused an uproar in public opinion, and even the opening of Romance of the Three Kingdoms was overshadowed.
Ji Liancheng fights with a real tiger. Does he want to die? Reporters all think so. It seems that three years after Ji Liancheng was banned, he began to play with his life in order to take office.
Entertainment reporters write it outrageously for the topic. Some people also said that Zhang Duo, a high school director, was ruthless and forced Ji Liancheng to fight with the real tiger. The two have now turned against each other and look like water and fire.
The news written by the entertainment reporter is true or false, but there is a person who is really like Zhang Duo, that is Du Wenhui. After seeing Xiao Feng's tiger shot by Zhang Duo, Du Wenhui clearly understood that his dream of investing 30 million in a big director was shattered.
Zhang Duo's Xiao Feng's fight against the tiger is better than Gu Zong's Wu Song, which not only shows the fierceness of the tiger and the thrilling people on the ground, but also shows the strength of Xiao Feng's martial arts, and the hearts of the people of the earth are turbulent.
After the investors see this set of shots, they will definitely not have the idea of changing directors. And he is unwilling to be a nominal supervisor. After returning to his room and telling Gu Zongling that he wanted to leave the crew, Gu Zongling did not agree.
Du Wenhui said hatefully, "Master, I understand. In fact, the so-called change of director is just Boss Song's plan to exorcise the wolf. At the beginning, they wanted to get the right to adapt this novel and didn't want Zhang Duo to be the director, so they invited us here. Now when they see that Zhang Duo is so evil, they will definitely leave us aside without hesitation. Now it's meaningless to stay here. It's better to find another way out!"
Gu Zongling disagreed and said, "Wen Hui, you have also read the script and know that this play is destined to be a classic. Zhang Duo's little doll is also a demonic figure, and there is no doubt that this play is well made. We stay here and receive both fame and fortune. Why not do it!"
Du Wenhui retorted, "I don't want to get this cheap!" Master, it was you who promoted me as a chore from a crew to a deputy director step by step. I am grateful to you in my life. But I can't serve you by your side anymore. Take care!" After saying that, Du Wenhui turned out of the room and left the hotel. He refused to stay for a moment and went to the capital overnight.
Looking at Du Wenhui's distant back, Gu Zongling was reluctant to give up, but still chose to stay. For an old man like him, his face is empty, and fame and fortune are real. What's more, Du Wenhui has always been on the front line of the conflict with Zhang Duo, but Gu Zongling doesn't have it. How can he give up this kind of fame and fortune because of a little friction with Zhang Duo!
