Chapter 479 When the filming is in progress (3) or three chapters
"Mr. Wang, come and have a drink!!"
"Wow, Liang Sheng, please show mercy."
“Thank you Mr. Wang for your investment in our Sichuan capital!!”
"As soon as Director Wang's new movie is released, the construction of the tourist area will be basically completed. By then, with Mr. Wang's appeal, this tourist area will definitely become a big hit!"
"Haha, the governor gave me the award."
"By the way, Mr. Wang, can you help recommend our tourist area to those foreigners? As long as they are willing to shoot movies here, we will do it for free for the past five years and we will fully cooperate!"
"Okay! No problem!!" Wang Shang agreed directly.
There was a lot of drinking and drinking, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.
In fact, Wang Shang doesn't like this kind of socializing, but living in a social circle and Wang Shang's current class, dealing with the government is inevitable.
Today at noon, a group of leaders came over to participate in the power-on ceremony, and then went to the tourist area for a tour. In the evening, Wang Shang was invited to have dinner.
There are not just this group of people who invited Wang Shang, there are three groups, a group of people from China Film and Television, and a group of people from the international film industry, each with different purposes, which means that Wang Shang will have entertainment these three nights.
Wang Shang understood the purpose of this wave of people from China Film and Television. It was about the Golden Dragon Award, and partly for the opening of IMAX technology. As for the foreign film companies, it was for IMAX technology.
After three nights of socializing, all three parties returned home satisfied.
The launch of "The Shawshank Redemption" has made the outside world very excited. Many newspapers at home and abroad have devoted a lot of space to reporting on this event.
In China, most media reported this...

"Facing the five major Hollywood giants, Wang Shang chatted and laughed happily, and he had the style of a world film giant."
"Wang Shang is very confident in this movie."
In foreign countries, most media tend to focus on the movie itself, and movie fans are also concerned about the movie itself.

——————————
On August 20th, "Avengers" was released in China. At this time, it was also released in various countries around the world. At this stage of its release, the box office is declining sharply every day.
North America has been scheduled to be released on August 31, and North America will be the last region in the world where "Avengers" will be released. On September 1, the new IMAX3D movie "Lord of the Rings 3" will be grandly released.
, "Avengers" will naturally make way for it.
September 18, Cangshan Prison, the crew of "The Shawshank Redemption".
After filming one scene, Wang Shang ordered: "Take a 20-minute break and shoot Act 48, Scene 23 of the next scene, the suicide of the warden."
After Wang Shang ordered him to go down, he went to the side and took a bottle of drink and drank it.
Because this movie was shot very strictly, I filmed it many times this month and wasted a lot of film. Fortunately, this movie is not IMAX or 3D, so the film cost is not too outrageous.
Huang Qiu Sheng was wearing an old Chinese tunic suit, with his graying hair neatly combed. He came over with a bottle of water and sat next to Wang Shang.
"How's it going? Have you figured out how to act later?" Wang Shang asked.
"..." Huang Qiu Sheng originally wanted to chat with Wang Shang and have a friendly relationship, but Wang Shang was very strict and serious this month. When he met everyone, he would ask how he was thinking about the character? Or how he was preparing for it, which made a lot of people feel uncomfortable.
to retreat.
Huang Qiusheng thought for a while and expressed his thoughts these days: "I have thought about it a lot. When the warden found out that his corruption and bribery were reported in the newspaper, his first thing should be panic. According to the script,
According to the plot arrangement, the police came immediately at this time, which meant that the warden was not given much time to calm down. When the police knocked on the door outside, the warden had two possibilities. One was to panic and grab
He pulled out his pistol and loaded the bullets in a panic. Another possibility was that he was calm and calm. Then I just asked about the prop gun. It was a revolver with 6 bullets. The bullets were not loaded at first."
"If he was panicking, he should be like this...this..."
"If he was calm and collected, he should be like this... like this..." Huang Qiusheng performed live.
Wang Shang thought about it and found that the "calmness" of Huang Qiusheng's performance was very similar to the performance of the warden in "The Shawshank Redemption" in the past time and space. He calmly stuffed 6 bullets before committing suicide. And the reason why he stuffed them
Six bullets, mainly to prevent the revolver from missing bullets. But now it seems to Wang Shang that the warden's calmness is a bit incredible. After all, he is the kind of greedy person. After years of corruption, even the most iron-blooded person has become
Soft people. This kind of people tend to be more fragile when encountering life-threatening things, so the most likely reaction is panic. Just like the prison guard who cried like a girl when he was arrested.
Wang Shang thought for a while and did not make a decision immediately. Instead, he said: "When the shooting is next, you can try both, and we will see the effect then."
"Okay!" Huang Qiusheng naturally had no objection, "By the way, Director Wang, I will go to the Magic City together the day after tomorrow. Ah Hui and I are quite familiar with each other."
"no problem."
The day after tomorrow is the day when Liang Jiahui is officially released from prison. Naturally, the crew will have to clean up his dust for him. So Wang Shang announced yesterday that the crew will have a three-day holiday starting tomorrow. Of course, Wang Shang also brought in private goods. It is best to prevent those actors from leaving Sichuan.
'Visit' the Cangshan tourist scenic spot, and then post on Weibo to mobilize fans. Advertise the tourist scenic spot and so on.
Twenty minutes passed quickly. The crew began to set up the shooting scene.
The warden's office and the library, which are relatively "high-end" places, have been decorated during the prison's renovation, so they will not affect the filming of the movie.
In about 5 minutes, the lights and scenery were all ready. Revolvers, boxed bullets, newspapers, Bibles, and hanging paintings were also prepared.
Huang Qiu Sheng rehearsed it in advance. Keeping everything in mind, sorting out and perfecting what was in his mind.
Soon Wang Shang took the loudspeaker and shouted: "3, 2, 1, action!!"
"Bang!!" The newspaper was smashed on the table, and you could see that the hands of the warden (Huang Qiu Sheng) holding the newspaper were trembling, and Huang Qiu Sheng's face showed a look of twisted anger and a touch of panic.
Ta-ta-ta-ta~~~The footsteps that were not loud but a little panic rang out. Huang Qiu Sheng went straight to the place where the safe was. His figure was unconsciously bent and no longer straight.
Wang Shang and the assistant director looked at each other and nodded. Huang Qiusheng's acting skills are undoubtedly very superb. This scene perfectly interprets the panic but not very panic state.
The warden twisted the combination lever of the safe with his hands a little messily... took out the 'account book' inside, only to find that it was a Bible. He flipped it inside without giving up, and then his face suddenly became livid, and then turned pale...
…
Part of this look relies on Huang Qiusheng's own acting skills, and part of it relies on the superb skills of the lighting engineer. When Wang Shang originally formed the crew, he invited master lighting engineers. With Wang Shang's instructions, the lighting engineer quickly perfected the show
Come out on this.
Huang Qiusheng seemed to be immersed in the play himself. Following Huang Qiusheng's performance, the entire crew fell into an inexplicable atmosphere. It was so quiet that they didn't dare to take a breath for fear of destroying the atmosphere.
Wang Shang was also very excited to see Huang Qiusheng following the script and doing it very well. This kind of dramatic state is very rare.
The warden returned to the window numbly and looked at the police car downstairs.
Go back to your seat and pull out the drawer...
With trembling hands, I flipped a box onto the table...
He took out a bullet, his hands kept shaking, and finally loaded it into the pistol with difficulty.
Raising the gun, feeling angry? Taking a memorial? There are still two drops of crystal tears in the eyes. Is it regret?
…
"Click!!"
"Okay!!" Although I didn't want to interrupt, I couldn't perform what I just said, so I had to stop.
At this time, Huang Qiu Sheng seemed to have just woken up and was at a loss as to what he had just done.
"This is a good one!" Wang Shang patted Huang Qiu Sheng's shoulder and praised. Seeing that Huang Qiu Sheng had not yet recovered, Wang Shang said, "Let's rest for 10 minutes and see how 'calm and calm' is.
.”
After resting for ten minutes, we continued filming. As a result, it seemed that his acting skills had been exhausted. Huang Qiu Sheng could no longer find his previous state and acted like a scumbag.
Wang Shang tried several times but was not satisfied.
In the end, I had no choice but to announce a replacement for the next performance.
The next day, August 18, Wang Shang announced that the crew was on holiday, and then flew back to the Magic City with the main crew.
Tomorrow is the day when Liang Jiahui is released from prison. Half a year has passed.
Wang Shang: "They say time is like a butcher's knife. I wonder what Ah Hui has become like after being in prison for half a year."
Wai Tsai: "Actually, there are many celebrities in Xiangjiang who have been imprisoned due to drug abuse and car accidents. There are also many big stars. Ah Fai has tried it before, but it is not as serious as this time."
Wang Shang: "Oh, really? Tell me about it, it will make me happy..."
Wei Zai: "..."
Huang Qiusheng: "..."
Eric Tsang: “…”
Sure enough, Wang Shang has some potential for talking nonsense, otherwise how could he possibly write the kind of talking talk in "Iron Man"?
