Chapter 97. 'God of Gamblers' Chow Yun-Fat
Speaking of the filming of "Bei Qiao Feng and Nan Murong" in "New Tianlong" was successfully completed, and "Murrong Fu" played by Chen Xiaotang was even more "sexy". Director Xiao Sheng was extremely satisfied. At this time, everyone in the crew was very happy. Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, overall, today's shooting was smooth.
Chen Xiaotang himself was also very satisfied. Everything was difficult at the beginning. Since he started his first shooting easily, he could naturally have optimistic ideas for the next development.[]
Director Xiao Sheng was even more happy. He was not good at this action style, but the results of the filming are probably difficult to pick on even experts in this field, so he had a further idea. For Chen Xiaotang, completing his first appearance was the beginning, but in Xiao Sheng's idea, why not change this drama slightly?
Everyone has watched the original work of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". The TV series was filmed according to the content of the original work, but now it is a movie. Do you still follow the rules?! If that is true, this drama will at most be a bad martial arts film that will change the soup and not change the medicine.
But as a director, who would like to make a bad movie?!
………………………………………….
After the scene of this scene was filmed, everyone's eyes turned to Xiao Sheng, waiting for the next notification. Xiao Sheng was dazed, with a strange light flashing in his eyes, and fell into deep thought. Subconsciously waved his hand, Xiao Sheng said, "Let's get here today." He turned around and strode to the side.
The actors dispersed one after another, and ordinary staff began to pack up props and other things. No one dared to disturb Xiao Sheng for a while, but Xiao Sheng's thoughts were fluctuating at this time.
As a gold medal director, Xiao Sheng is still very self-aware. He understands that his strengths lies in the handling of emotional scenes in martial arts dramas and is not good at operating commercial films. However, this does not hinder his appreciation of this aspect. Seeing Chen Xiaotang's sudden talent, he deeply feels that he has the need to reconsider the conception of the entire film.
The New Century Film Company, which invested in this drama, knew that Xiao Sheng himself knew that this drama was a hype of striking while the iron was hot. The TV series became popular, and followed the movies and everything was a remake without innovation. Originally, the New Century Film Company did not ask him to shoot very well. As long as he could use the TV series to seduce Hong Kong citizens to the cinema, he could just take advantage of the trend of TV series to seduce Hong Kong citizens to the cinema and take a few glances, and it was considered to promote his new company. It was precisely based on this idea that Xiao Sheng originally planned to put some effort into martial arts design, seek stability in the plot, highlight the emotional scenes, and shoot a not too ugly film. Anyway, the company was also newly opened, and the amount of investment was not much, so who could ask for more?
However, Chen Xiaotang's strong acting talent changed Xiao Sheng's idea, and the action design he made would definitely be the biggest highlight of this drama. All this made Xiao Sheng suddenly have the idea of "re-adapting the script". He increased the role of the villain "Murong Fu", went on a strange story, and filmed him as a ** character!
People are familiar with the "Tianlong Bazi" and tired of watching it. With their eyes closed, they can come up with the stories of three male protagonists, "Duan Yu", "Xu Zhu" and "Qiao Feng". However, no one from "Murong Fu" has to dig out, dig out his heart and his tragic world.
As a martial arts novel enthusiast, Xiao Sheng, like many people, once only focused on the three protagonists, thus ignoring a character who is closer to the reality, that is - Murong Fu!
He did not have the luck of Duan Yu and Xu Zhu, nor did he have the heroic spirit of Qiao Feng. He carried too much burden. For this burden, he gave up his beloved, gave up his dignity, gave up everything, and ended up going crazy.
In a sense, Murong Fu is more like the current struggle of those Hong Kong people, with goals and talents, but no luck...
Rewrite the script, do it or not?!
Immediately, Xiao Sheng showed the courage of a big director and did not spend much time in this regard. He immediately decided to start over and increase the role of "Murong Fu" played by Chen Xiaotang, and use him as the soul and focus of the play!
However, Xiao Sheng had another aspect that was quite troubled. According to the original script, the emotional scenes of the character Murong Fu are basically dispensable and have no depth. The script he adapted highlights Murong Fu's emotional scenes. But how to deal with the emotional scenes in the play is the most difficult thing for Xiao Sheng to decide.
Is it possible to refer to the description in the original work to make Murong Fu a ruthless person? As long as he is a human being, he will have feelings, and Murong Fu is the same, but he hides this feeling deeply. All he has to do is - how to dig it out!
Once Xiao Sheng had this idea, the temptation would be so great that he could not resist. He could not emphasize the emotional scene too much, but he could not let the scenes in this aspect become a transition. He should dig out the depth of the relationship as much as possible in the smallest plot. Xiao Sheng made continuous decisions and quickly thought about the whole plot, and his eyes suddenly became clear.
Suddenly he stood up, Xiao Sheng asked someone to call the movie screenwriter, martial arts deputy, and a group of leading actors.
As soon as a few people met, Xiao Sheng suppressed his excitement and roughly talked about the adapted plot first. Each of them had their own ideas, and director Xiao Sheng couldn't care about that much. He looked serious and began to formally tell his new ideas about the whole film. He emphasized that the relationship between the two protagonists "Murong Fu" and "Wang Yuyan" should be explored to the greatest extent in the limited scenes and plots. This is Xiao Sheng's specialty. He talked freely, and everyone listened very seriously and nodded frequently. Chen Xiaotang's reaction was particularly different. On the one hand, listening to Xiao Sheng's explanation, on the other hand, he immediately showed a new understanding of his mind.
When the story is over, everyone has different expressions.
Tang Zhenye was the first to bear the brunt and expressed his dissatisfaction with a cold snorkeling. After all, he is one of the male protagonists in this drama. Now he has deleted so many of his roles. How can it be reasonable? For Xu Shaoqiang, it doesn’t matter if he gets the same money and has fewer roles, so he can play more time: For Huang Rihua, he is happy that his friend Chen Xiaotang can receive the attention of the director; for Chen Yulian, although his role has not changed much, his roles against Chen Xiaotang have increased, and he is a little unconfident. Who knows if he can act well?!
The discussion on the script lasted for a long time. When Xiao Sheng was satisfied in the end, it was already dark. Everyone began to disperse step by step. Tang Zhenye left first. He was very unhappy with such an adaptation, but he had no choice but to sigh that Chen Xiaotang was lucky. The second one left was Xu Shaoqiang and Huang Rihua. One of them was anxious to go to a nightclub to have a drink and drink-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chen Xiaotang didn't expect that so many things happened just one day after he came to the crew. Seeing that it was dark, he took the initiative to take on the important task of protecting the flower and asked director Xiao Sheng to escort Chen Yulian back.
Xiao Sheng was very happy that Chen Xiaotang had this spirit of "helping others", so he immediately agreed and told them to be careful.
Chen Yulian originally wanted to refuse, but looking at the sky, she finally said to Chen Xiaotang: "Then I'll let you go!"
Chen Xiaotang smiled and said, "Then you are too polite! It is natural for a hero to give a beautiful woman!"
....................................
Chen Yulian lives near Jiulong City, and it takes about half an hour to drive. Of course, Chen Xiaotang, the fake "Wan Chai Car God", cannot drive, so he shamelessly asked Chen Yulian to act as a driver, while he was sitting aside and acted as a temporary bodyguard.
As a girl, Chen Yulian certainly would not drive the car very fast like some men. She was either a plane or a rocket, but was slow and slow, feeling like a crib, just a little swaying.
Chen Xiaotang could still hold his arms at first and act like a cool "Zhongnanhai bodyguard", but as he shook, his eyes began to squint. The fatigue from filming all day long hit his heart, and he could no longer help it. He closed his eyes and wandered around the world.
Chen Yulian was also very tired, and was yawning while driving. She turned around and wanted to say a few words to relieve her fatigue, but suddenly she found that the other party was saliva at the corner of her mouth and fell asleep in a bumpy head.
Who is this? He is so old and drools when he sleeps? Why is he like a child? Chen Yulian is so amused and crying.
When she was distracted, a car rushed towards her in front. Chen Yulian hurriedly turned the steering wheel, and shouted, and the car turned around. Chen Xiaotang, who was sleeping, hit the front with his head.
"Oh, my god!" Chen Xiaotang grinned in pain, covered his head, and lost all sleepiness.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!" Chen Yulian quickly apologized.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Chen Xiaotang waved his hand, "I can still withstand it!" He let go of his hand and looked at it, and a large bag appeared on his forehead.
Chen Xiaotang dipped his hands with his saliva, applied it to the big bag, and rubbed it, and it hurt a lot.
Seeing that he looked in pain, Chen Yulian asked again: "Are you really okay?"
Chen Xiaotang shook his head. "You may need to apply some potion, otherwise it may swell tomorrow."
"If you hold on, you will arrive at my house soon!" Chen Yulian said, speeding up.
About five or six minutes later, the car stopped downstairs.
Chen Xiaotang covered his head and got out of the car. Chen Yulian walked over and said carelessly: "Let me see if you want to go upstairs first to apply some potion."
Chen Yulian gently took Chen Xiaotang's hand away. When he saw that his forehead was indeed swollen. It seemed that he had knocked hard just now.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it just now." Chen Yulian said apologetically.
"I said everything, it's okay!"
"It hurts very much, right?" Chen Yulian couldn't help but want to reach out to touch Chen Xiaotang's forehead.
"No need." Chen Xiaotang grabbed her hand and said.
This action is entirely out of instinct, but in the eyes of some people, they will not think so.
"Boy, hurry up and take your hand away!" With a loud shout, a man rushed over from one side and reached out to grab Chen Xiaotang's shoulder.
Chen Xiaotang felt a smell of alcohol coming. He instinctively reacted, put one hand on the tiger's mouth of the visitor, and then fell over his shoulders beautifully. With a sound of the blond, the man fell to the ground fiercely.
With stars on his eyes, the man was thrown to death!
Then he exclaimed again: "Afa, why are you?" Chen Yulian widened her eyes and looked at the unlucky guy whose butt was almost broken in half!
The man held a handful of flowers in one hand, covered his butt with the other, grinning.
Chen Xiaotang also woke up and looked at the man on the ground again. Although he was so painful that he grimaced, he could vaguely tell that he was the famous Hong Kong film actor in the film industry today - Chow Yun-fat!
I actually threw down the future "God of Gambling"!
Ah!
Chen Xiaotang covered his mouth.
It's a big deal!!!
But what caught him even more off guard was that a large group of media reporters ran out from somewhere, holding gun-like cameras, aiming at this scene that was rare in a thousand years, and shooting wildly.
At that moment, Chen Xiaotang had only one thought in his mind: his uncle is miserable!
Chapter completed!
