So far, Zhou Yang has really had in-depth contact with only two directors.
One is Feng Kai and the other is Wang Shuai.
Feng Kai is an out-and-out academic. Although he looked down on Zhou Yang at first, when he started shooting seriously, he would use various academic elements and techniques to integrate the lens language into the plot, and at the same time make some shooting plans.
Choose a place in advance…
Wang Shuai is not a very academic person, but he is very serious about movies. During filming, he will draw storyboards, scene design, and participate in post-production. He has even stricter requirements for scripts and actors.
In his heart, every actor must shoot according to his requirements. If the shooting feels wrong, he will take the trouble to do various demonstrations. Moreover, he has already formulated a very detailed plan before shooting that makes people crazy.
The shooting plan will not waste any time of the actors...
So, subconsciously, Zhou Yang felt that a good director should look like this!
but……
After Zhou Yang met Huang Jiacheng, he felt that all his three views had been subverted.
In the office.
"Okay! This script is good, let's use this one!"
Huo Yuanjie's expression was full of pain and hatred. After reading the script "The Grandmaster. Men Should Be Strong", Huo Yuanjie's face became even more angry.
It’s not that the script was not well written, but that it was very well written, completely in line with his positioning of the role of Huang Feihong...
I don’t know how many times better it is than a silly script like "Once Upon a Time vs. the One-Armed Swordsman".
He saw Huang Jiacheng patting his thigh excitedly and saying this.
He took a deep breath: "Director Huang... So, all the books I read and the lines I memorized in the past two days were wasted?"
He tried his best to keep his emotions calm, suppressed the thought of strangling Huang Jiacheng to death, clenched his fists and finally choked out those words.
"If it's not in vain, how could it be in vain? Don't you think that after reading the One-Armed Sword and reading this book, your understanding of the protagonist Huang Feihong will be at a higher level? And in a sense, this book is also
You modified it after reading the One-Armed Sword...right, Xiao Zhou? Master Huo's opinion is very important, isn't it?"
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Zhou Yang was not good at lying and did not dare to say anything. He could only nod his head but look elsewhere.
Huo Yuanjie took a deep breath.
Lift up the mineral water.
"Director Huang, tell me what this mineral water means? Don't tell me, you just did it on the spur of the moment, just for fun!" Huo Yuanjie had a wonderful expression, but then he seemed to think of something, and finally did not put the mineral water on the wooden table.
superior.
"You listen to me first, mention it first, and I will tell you what it means later... If I tell you now, many things will not work."
"Director Huang, don't play tricks on me! Everyone's time is precious!"
"Master Huo, how could I possibly play tricks on you? It's not like I'm full. So, Master Huo, if you still believe me, you can go back first. I'll ask my assistant Xiao Chen to copy the script to you later.
what do you think?"
"good."
"Master Huo, by the way, there are still things that should be kept secret, such as this bottle of water..."
"good!"
Huo Yuanjie seemed to be holding back the emotions that were about to explode, and finally nodded, then turned and left the office.
After Huo Yuanjie left, Zhou Yang finally couldn't help but look at Huang Jiacheng.
"Director Huang, what is Master Huo's two-liter bottle of water for?" Zhou Yang thought about it, but still couldn't figure out what the two liters of water were for.
"Well..." Zhou Yang saw Huang Jiacheng was silent for a long time, and then looked at Zhou Yang equally seriously: "I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I don't know how to use these two liters of water... but it will always be useful."
"???"
Zhou Yang was so shocked.
Your sister!
What kind of crazy operation is this?
……………………
August 11th at 8pm.
When the leading actors in the crew heard that the script of "The Grandmaster" in their hands had been completely replaced by "The Grandmaster. Men Should Be Strong", many of them were furious on the spot.
Donnie Yen's face, which was already dark, became even darker now. He kicked open the door of Huang Jiacheng's office with his manager, and angrily asked Huang Jiacheng for an explanation...
Zhou Yang, who was resting in the room, heard the sound of the door being kicked, so he hurriedly ran out of the room and went to the office to see what was going on.
Oops!
When Zhou Yang ran to the door of the office, he was instantly startled. He found that there was a dark crowd blocking the door of the office, and everyone was watching the excitement.
But the kicked-in door was still closed. At first, the voices in the office were cursing, but after a while, the voices in the office became softer.
Many people were curious and wanted to see what happened.
"Sister Jiaxin..."
When many people talk about the Hong Kong film industry in the 1980s and 1990s, they unconsciously talk about those stunning actresses.
Even after the turn of the millennium, the entertainment industry has entered a new era of plastic surgery, and many people will still talk about the dream lovers in those movies that their parents will never forget.
Shen Jiaxin is one of the best.
Having passed the watershed of thirty, Shen Jiaxin has not declined because of her age, but has gained a touch of mature charm, especially her elegance when standing in the crowd that cannot be ignored.
Zhou Yang said hello to Shen Jiaxin.
"Well, hello." Shen Jiaxin smiled and nodded to Zhou Yang.
She was not familiar with Zhou Yang, it could only be said that she barely knew him.
"Brother Zhen and Director Huang..."
"Nothing will happen. Don't worry. If you stay on the set for a long time, you will get used to it." Shen Jiaxin was relatively calm.
Many people were worried that Donnie Yen would fight with Huang Jiacheng, but she was not worried at all. After watching for a while, she turned and left.
When filming "Lost in the Woods", Huang Jiacheng's sexy moves almost blinded her eyes.
This time she saw the conflict in the crew, and she didn't feel any fluctuation in her heart at all.
Not long after...
The office door opened.
Zhen Ziwu walked out of the office. Although his face looked very ugly, he couldn't get out of an attack.
After seeing Zhou Yang, he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. He glared at Zhou Yang fiercely and clenched his fists tightly, but in the end he followed the agent without saying a word.
Zhou Yang felt a little baffled when he was stared at like this.
Didn't you offend this old man?
After watching Zhen Ziwu come out, the people surrounding him slowly dispersed...
In the next few days.
Zhou Yang felt more and more that the atmosphere in the crew was weird. Actors came one after another, but they didn't know what they were doing, and they didn't have any filming plans. They just wandered around in the crew.
Zhou Yang is also...
After a few days, he had no tasks and no one was looking for him. Apart from being confused in front of the computer in the room, he would go to the door and follow the staff to bask in the sun.
Many people even fished in the nearby lake…
Zhou Yang really couldn't stand the feeling of doing nothing, so he ran over and asked Huang Jiacheng what he wanted to do!
Huang Jiacheng was stunned when he saw Zhou Yang.
"Xiao Zhou, are you still on the set?"
"???"
"I plan to go to the mainland for filming tomorrow. I thought you would go to Hengdian first..."
"Director Huang, you didn't tell me!"
"Well, I forgot. I have been thinking about the script for the past two days and can't remember..."
After Zhou Yang heard this sentence, he was completely confused.
Can this person be reliable?
Can such a person become a director?
Zhou Yang felt that Huang Jiacheng was impacting his doubts about movies, directors, and even the entire industry.
He even felt that Huang Jiacheng was just like the two fraudsters when he entered the industry. Maybe he was using "The Grandmaster", a cross-strait co-production, to defraud money?
That’s not right either!
With Huang Jiacheng's current status in this circle, he shouldn't be so tactful. It won't do him any good.
"Director Huang, when will our movie be shot? When do you plan to arrange my role? If it's not my turn yet, I plan to leave for a while?"
"Don't be in a hurry, take your time, and do everything in a state of mind. Look at Huo Yuanjie, wandering around with a bottle of water all day long. Look how calm he is. I think you should also hold a bottle of water and practice your mentality...
"
"Director Huang, I'm going back first. When you really need me, will you call me?"
"Well, that's fine. By the way, I will give you the remuneration for the script according to the market price. You don't have to worry about this. I sent a contract template to Wang Jing and she is reading it. If there is no problem, you can take another look.
…”
"Well, it's okay."
Zhou Yang took a deep breath. He felt that if he stayed with Huang Jiacheng, he might become a psychopath.
After he returned home, he packed up his things, bought a ticket and left.
After returning to Huaxing, before his butt was still hot, he received a call from Huang Jiacheng.
The content of the phone call made a good-tempered person like Zhou Yang want to hack Huang Jiacheng to death with a knife.
Even if he could barely control his emotions, Zhou Yang felt like his fists were trembling.
On the phone: "Xiao Zhou, I thought about it, the movie still needs to be shot as soon as possible, so come here, I'm going to shoot your White Lotus Sect scene first, but it has to do a few somersaults, it's quite dangerous, you have to do it
Be mentally prepared. There are also actions such as stepping on the brazier and stepping on the tip of a knife. You didn't write these in the script... I've actually been thinking about how your character will appear in the past few days!"
"Wait a minute, aren't we coming to the mainland for filming? I just came back, Director Huang..."
"But I found a perfect shooting location on Hong Kong Island, and my plans can't keep up with the changes..."
"..."
………………
The filming of "The Grandmaster" is finally about to begin.
The shooting location was next to the church on Old Island Street.
The content to be filmed is that the leader of the White Lotus Sect, played by Zhou Yang, flies up a hillside on the tips of knives in a fantasy way, and then jumps into a large cauldron burning with strong carbon fire, placing various
All kinds of exaggerated actions...
When Zhou Yang arrived at Hong Kong Island and saw the battle, he was stunned. Looking at the sharp knives, even a desperate person like Zhou Yang felt chills down his spine.
"Director Huang, are these all true?"
"Of course it's true. Only in this way can we have a strong visual effect..."
"How do I act?"
"There will be wires hanging on you...but don't worry, the most dangerous part will be performed by the stunt doubles, they are very experienced!"
