After Han Sen personally went through the scene just now, Han Sen finally felt relieved. Although it was not a master-level performance, at least it did not look abrupt or unnatural.
As long as the acting doesn't embarrass the audience, that's half the battle.
However, compared with the original version in my impression, it seems to be a little less attractive, the kind of desire that makes you want to continue watching it just after watching it for a few seconds.
Han Sen raised his head and said, "Director Xiang, what do you think of this scene? Where does our performance need to be improved?"
Xiang Yihua was stunned. Before he could say anything, Han Sen continued: "Don't have any scruples just because you are an investor or any other status. Since you are on the crew, everything should be subject to Director Xiang's arrangements."
, no matter what shortcomings you have, you can tell them directly to your face, so that the actors can improve. This is a mutually beneficial thing. Everyone hopes that the show can be done well and the audience can be satisfied with it."
Xiang Yihua was stunned for a while, and then said after a while: "I think your performance is quite good."
Han Sen thought Xiang Yihua was still being polite, so he said, "How about we shoot a few more times?"
Xiang Yihua is really dumbfounded now. He has always been good at shooting movies quickly. Many directors take a year and a half to shoot, but for the same content, Xiang Yihua can compress the shooting time into
Within three months, or even within one month.
But this does not mean that Xiang Yihua cut corners, just like the same ingredients, different chefs will produce different flavors.
Of course Xiang Yihua is considered a top "chef" and has rich experience, so every scene in the movie was under his control. Although the speed was a little faster, the explosive points in the plot were not.
No one will be missing.
To put it simply, it is to use the fastest speed and the highest efficiency to complete a movie that others have been unable to complete even after racking their brains.
This is Xiang Yihua's strength as a director.
But now, even a scene that was very good from Xiang Yihua's own point of view was questioned by Han Sen and even asked to shoot it a few more times.
"Ah Sen, I think this scene has been shot very well. No matter how good it is, it won't be any better. It will only increase the cost and waste time." Xiang Yihua said bluntly, even if the other party is Han Sen, the screenwriter is
Investors, he still has the same attitude.
Han Sen frowned, but then he let go and asked the staff to rewind the scene that had just been played on the monitor. He pointed at one of the scenes and said, "I think Jiang Bao's expression can be a little duller, but we can't make it look dull."
Filmed as a mentally retarded person.”
After a pause, Han Sen continued: "Director Xiang, in fact, everyone's character in the script of "Kung Fu" is not simple. For example, Jiang Bao, do you think he is stupid?"
Xiang Yihua subconsciously replied: "Not very smart."
This is indeed the impression Jiang Bao gave everyone in "Kung Fu", but Han Sen said: "He is not stupid, he can even be as wise as a fool."
As soon as this sentence came out, all the staff looked over, and even Jiangbao himself was confused, because in the script he received, all the characters' actions, language, etc., always revealed one message: I Jiangbao
Explosion, what an idiot!
But now, Han Sen has overturned this conclusion.
"The so-called Pig Cage Walled City is actually just a homophone. Its original name should be Zhulong City Walled City. This kind of city has hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Almost all the neighbors are martial arts masters."
Hearing Han Sen's words, all the actors held their breath.
Including Xiang Yihua.
At this moment, he wanted to refute and scold, but suddenly he remembered that the script of the movie "Kung Fu" was written by Han Sen himself. Who can understand this drama better than the screenwriter himself?
In addition, the subsequent plot also shows that everyone in this pig cage city is a martial arts master. Even a silly vegetable seller can punch the male protagonist and vomit blood. A child who is obviously only eight or nine years old has a big
With so much muscle, even a thin-looking man can stand over two meters tall.
Not to mention other roles such as the coolie, the tailor, the fried hawker, and the Condor Heroes' tenants and tenants, which are clearly divided into roles.
Everywhere shows the extraordinary sincerity of this dragon building.
"Where's Jiang Bao? He's also a martial arts master?"
Xiang Yihua asked hesitantly.
"Of course." Han Sen replied decisively, and pointed out the key evidence: "Jiang Bao can cut his hair in just a few seconds. Isn't this strong enough?"
Xiang Yihua choked on his words for a moment.
Han Sen added: "In the play, the second master of the Ax Gang came to the Pig Cage Walled City, and happened to be hit on the head by the protagonist's firecracker. Later, when Jiang Bao wanted to chop him to death, in just a moment, the second master of the Ax Gang
He was beaten away. Although Coolie admitted later that he was the one who hit him, there are only two people with such speed in the play. One is naturally the male protagonist, and the other is the villain Fire Cloud Evil God. So, no
Maybe it’s because the coolies are strong.”
Hearing these words, Xiang Yihua almost choked, and he even felt like he was a retard.
And Han Sen is so smart that he doesn't look like a mortal. These plots are all described in the script, but even as a director, Xiang Yihua did not understand the meaning behind these characters.
Zheng Fangqiu, who played the role of the charterer, stood aside and observed for a long time. At this time, she couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Han, I have always had a question. I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
Everyone looked over in surprise.
Han Sen turned around and saw that it was Zheng Fangqiu, so he smiled and said, "Teacher Zheng, please speak."
"This question has existed since I took over the script. Later I found out that you, Mr. Han, are the screenwriter of this play, so I think only you can answer this question."
Zheng Fangqiu said with a smile: "All the characters in the script have names, but only the male protagonist, who obviously has the most roles and is the most important, does not have a serious name. Of course, the name is not the most important.
, but the life experience of the male protagonist, who is he..."
Who is he?
Many actors felt the same way at this moment and nodded repeatedly.
Fatty Cong even showed a "painful" expression. Finally someone understood his pain. He had such doubts after receiving the script, and he never knew how to call Han Sen, so he simply called him boss.
,
Even though I had doubts in my heart, I didn't dare to ask any more questions. After all, Han Sen's reputation was here. If he, an unknown actor, asked something he shouldn't have asked, he might be replaced from the hard-earned role.
Han Sen was also questioned at this moment.
There is indeed no name for the male protagonist in the script he wrote. In fact, in the original movie of "Kung Fu", the male protagonist also had no name.
So Han Sen planned to follow the custom in "Pawn Shop No. 8" and just call the male protagonist Han Sen.
But people have to come from somewhere.
Where does the male protagonist come from?
Han Sen looked at the intellectual curiosity expressed by the surrounding actors and even director Xiang Yihua, thought for a moment, and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, the male protagonist should be the long-lost son of the Condor Heroes."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at a loss.
Only Xiang Yihua, who was familiar with the plot of the script, suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and immediately woke up.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. At the end, he couldn't help but clap his hands and cheer: "Wonderful, so wonderful!"
The male protagonist is born with the ability to self-heal, so even if he is about to die after being beaten, he will recover as before. The most impressive scene is when the male protagonist is beaten by the Fire Cloud Evil God, and the whole thing is like a gossamer.
The person was wrapped like a rice dumpling, but in the end, not only was he able to heal himself, but he was also hit by accident and his potential was unleashed. He emerged from the cocoon and turned into a butterfly, becoming a top master.
This miraculous self-healing ability is inherent in birth, and the charterer once said that her daughter was beaten to death when she was very young. If the male protagonist is really her son, then this son will not die.
Moreover, the script also vaguely reveals the answer through some lines.
For example, the male protagonist said that he wanted to be a doctor or a lawyer, and the landlord finally said that he was suitable to be a doctor or a lawyer, as if it was the experience that his parents had instilled in his son since he was a child.
Another example is what the landlady said: "Look, he was beaten so hard that he didn't even recognize his mother."
Various signs and lines indicate the identity of the male protagonist.
In this way, many things in the script are no longer nonsense, but are well-founded and self-justifying.
The excitement of "Kung Fu" has increased a lot, making Xiang Yihua so excited that he even slapped his thigh and shouted: "Shoot, keep shooting, shoot a few more, Asen, you can also participate in the directing, as long as you feel
If we’re not satisfied with anything, we’ll reshoot it!”
Although these words may sound like angry words, Xiang Yihua said them cheerfully and without any yin and yang at all, because these were his true thoughts in his heart.
"I have always underestimated you, kid. I didn't expect you to be so good!" Xiang Yihua patted Han Sen on the shoulder. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that his potential was unlimited. Being a singer was too unqualified. It was better to just make a movie.
!
Although many people still don't quite understand the twists and turns involved, after all, they haven't read the complete script, but they are so happy at the thought, and they obviously know that Han Sen's proposal is correct.
So Jiang Bao, Fat Zai Cong and others immediately returned to their original positions and began to reshoot the scene that had just passed.
Once, twice, three times...
They shot it seven times, each time striving for perfection, but they were not tired because they found that as they shot over and over again, the images on the monitor became more and more exciting.
Just the look in Jiang Bao's eyes can make people laugh out loud.
Even though Fatty Cong didn't say a word, when he shook the fat on his chest and showed a fierce expression like a cat and a tiger, it made people laugh.
The male protagonist is even more amazing. Every word he speaks, the tone of every word spoken, and the serious expressions and funny language make people laugh to tears, and some people even kneel on the ground laughing.
"This effect... is amazing!" Xiang Yihua felt his soul tremble, as if he saw a new type of comedy sprouting.
No one understands his actions, and the way he does things and speaks is also incomprehensible. There is no center, and neither his words nor his actions have any clear purpose, or even any sense.
There is one word to describe this in places like Guangdong, which is nonsense.
But Han Sen's performance is not just nonsense. Every word the character says and everything he experiences is endlessly memorable.
"Advanced performance! Completely natural!" Xiang Yihua suppressed the excitement in his heart and began to study Han Sen's attitude and approach to drama like an apprentice devoutly.
The filming of "Kung Fu" is in full swing here.
On the other side, after Wu Sheng got the song "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", he stayed on the set for two more days. Seeing that Han Sen was always busy and even filming late into the night, he finally felt ashamed and left.
As for the new song, we can wait until Han Sen finishes filming in three months.
Wu Sheng's trip was not fruitless. In addition to the song "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", he also saw Han Sen's attitude towards this career.
Terrible things happen every day, and the most terrible thing is that people who are better than you work harder than you.
He even felt a little ashamed when he saw Han Sen working so hard every day.
So after leaving quietly and returning to the mainland, Wu Sheng quickly started the production of "Along the River During Qingming Festival".
Hansen Studio.
In the recording studio, Zhang Hai just got an endorsement contract, and his throat suddenly felt itchy. He came here to yell a few words, and who knew that he happened to bump into Wu Sheng practicing a new song.
His heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Wu, are you ready to release a new song?"
"Yes!" Wu Sheng said with a smile: "Brother Hai, please help us promote it on Weibo when the time comes!"
"It must be promoted." Zhang Hai smiled, but did not leave. He stared at the lyrics and music score in Wu Sheng's hand and asked: "This new song is..."
Wu Sheng smiled happily: "Brother Sen gave it to me."
Zhang Hai's eyes widened, "Don't he have time to write songs now? He seems to be filming in Xiangjiang?"
Wu Sheng nodded and sighed: "Yes, but this is his stock at the bottom of the box. I personally went to Xiangjiang to get such a song..."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Hai immediately picked up his mobile phone and prepared to book a flight.
Wu Sheng's heart skipped a beat and he quickly said: "Brother Hai, you don't want to go to Xiangjiang to find Brother Sen right now, do you? I advise you to give up this idea. You also know that Brother Sen promised to help me write three new songs.
I just signed in to the studio, and this song "Along the River During Qingming Festival" is one of them. I went all the way to Xiangjiang and squatted on the set for a long time to get it. The other two songs were not available at all...
…”“
Zhang Hai put down his phone and asked suspiciously: "Only one song for you?"
"Yes! And this song was not written now, but was written casually when I was writing songs in the past. The quality may not be as good as your song "Fly Higher", Brother Shanghai." Wu Sheng said modestly.
It seems that Han Sen is really busy. Zhang Hai has completely given up the idea of flying to Xiangjiang. However, when he heard what Wu Sheng said, he felt a little proud in his heart: "You are right, but I think Han Sen's...
The quality of the songs are all top-notch. There is no way to judge them as high or low, only whether they are suitable or not. For example, "Fly Higher" is a song tailor-made by Han Sen. It suits my voice and singing style very well, so it became popular as soon as it was released.
All over the north and south of the Yangtze River..."
Hearing this sentence, Wu Sheng's brows were filled with joy.
Coincidentally, Brother Sen also said that I am very suitable for the song "Along the River During Qingming Festival"!
