In May, the filming of "Twelve Zodiac Signs" came to an end. Although it was seven and a half months earlier than expected, the torment was not less at all.
The main reason is that the eldest brother has suffered a lot. These past five months have been called a lot of troubles. At the beginning, he was injured and went to Vanuatu, where he wore an inflatable suit and performed dozens of stunts. Last month, his son fell out of control.
The eldest brother went out of his way to wipe his son's butt, held a press conference, and announced his son's retirement from the industry. He cried bitterly and begged the public for forgiveness.
After everything was settled, the eldest brother Cheng had a feeling of retirement. He felt physically and psychologically obsolete: Fang Yi supervised most of the special effects in the second half of the film, and he was the hands-off shopkeeper; at the filming scene, he
I also felt powerless and could no longer perform difficult movements, so I began to frequently use a substitute.
There is a scene that requires the eldest brother Cheng to jump from a high-speed Mercedes-Benz convertible to an airplane. Of course, this scene will not be filmed in real life. Instead, indoor model stunts and live filming are used: Fang Yi indeed drove the car to 200
At a speed of more than 10 kilometers per hour, not far in front of him, there was indeed a Gulfstream private plane with the door open and approaching to take off... But the co-pilot's eldest brother Cheng jumped onto the wing of the plane. This action happened indoors and was edited with special effects later.
Together.
This scene took three or four days to complete. After the filming, Big Brother Cheng was sweating profusely. He felt very depressed and was quickly sent to the hospital for an intravenous drip. This was the second time he went to the hospital in five months. Fang Yi led a group of people
When I came to visit, I saw him sighing in bed:
"How can the world be brought to peace if one family cannot be brought to peace?"
Everyone then understood that the eldest brother Guo was really upset because of Prince Long. Now Prince Long was sentenced to six months, and eldest brother Cheng's hair turned gray due to worry. The Hong Kong media was hyping up that eldest brother Cheng was at odds with his wife because of this.
My wife is unfavorable in the discipline of her son, and she believes that it was the eldest brother who did not care about the eldest child in his thirties that led him to the tragedy of quarreling with grass.
Various factors both on and off the field have affected Big Brother's success.
Finally, on the director list of the film, the eldest brother Cheng mentioned Fang Yi as one of the two directors, not just the special effects director. Maybe it was a good relationship, maybe he felt unworthy.
The video studio, which was built with a cost of more than 70 million yuan, did not go into disuse. Instead, it became more and more prosperous, with domestic and foreign directors constantly coming to visit. Wu Baige, Du Qifeng, Luc Besson... The most special one among these people is Han Sanping. He came
Secretary Jiao was not brought with him at the scene, and Fang Yi personally accompanied him through this end.
He has finished his lawsuit with Hollywood and won the case, but Han Sanping announced that he will step down on time in two years. This is the beginning of marginalization within the system, making way for others.
Han Sanping is quite low-key, with a Chinese tunic suit, a crew cut, short round hands, and old cloth shoes... I can't believe that he was once the helmsman of a mainland film.
Huairou Film and Television Base is a large place with various antique buildings. Walking around it feels like being in some kind of scenic spot. It is so dazzling that it is difficult to see it. Fang Yi took the initiative to start chatting and asked Han Sanping:
"What will Third Master do after resigning?"
"Why do you care about this?" Han Sanping asked back.
Fang Yi: "Lu Yang talked to me about this before, saying that you can actually continue to be a director and engage in literary and artistic creation. After all, you were once a first-class director... In fact, I think many people who have been in love with you care about you."
Han Sanping waved his hand: "I have to engage in literary and artistic creation, but I am not a director anymore. I know I will die long ago. Maybe I will be a producer in the future and show off my face. There should be someone willing to take it."
When he said that his eyes became brighter: "After all, I have done so much for Chinese movies, I still have merit."
The words were a bit boastful, but not too exaggerated. After all, Han Sanping got off the bus safely and preserved his reputation. He began to care about his posthumous reputation.
In addition, Han Sanping's daughter is also in the industry, relying on her father's cover to achieve success.
The two of them walked to a circular fountain to rest. The fountain only had dark nozzles pointing toward the sky, with no running water coming out. Fang Yi specifically counted the number of nozzles and found that none of them were working.
Han Sanping curled his lips and smiled: "When I came here last time, the fountain here was turned on early and sprayed for me to see! Do you know, it was sprayed for me just because I came here, and it would not be turned on normally. I am the leader
.”
Soon the management staff learned that it was Director Fang and Han Sanping who were inspecting, and immediately turned on the fountain. The fountain under the sunlight suddenly surged out, hitting the marble and releasing water vapor, which in turn reflected the colorful sunlight.
Fang Yi said: "I worked with director Jiang Wen in 10 years, when the movie "Transformers" was in full swing. He told me that the creation itself will not change, only the form of creation will change. A lot has indeed changed in the past few years, and now
Mr. Han, if you take a rest, it seems that you have opened a point in time, and more changes will come next... I don’t know how it will develop in the future, what do you think?"
Han Sanping didn't know what Fang Yi was talking about. He was completely immersed in the fountain. He said: "This fountain is also very wonderful. When I came here before, I would spray it to make me happy. Now I thought there was no reaction, but because
Together with you, it started spraying on its own... It is a dead thing, and it cannot move on its own. What makes it willing to move is the living person behind it... So I don't know if it's you who got the credit from me, or me.
This time I got the credit from you."
These guys who have been leaders always have something to say.
What does Han Sanping mean?
In the past, I was awesome, and everyone sold me my face. Now that I'm out of my mind, from now on, I'm afraid I'll only sell my face, and they may not remember me.
Fang Yi couldn't deny this, it was a fact, but he pretended not to understand and understood from another direction:
"Mr. Han said that the original film market was almost a pool of stagnant water. It finally came to life until you came, and you continuously pumped out living water to circulate... Now I seem to have made a little contribution. You use this to inspire me and let
Am I, like you, contributing to the Chinese film relay?"
Han Sanping was short, even when he was sitting. He looked up at Fang Yi and said with a smile, "You are actually very suitable for politics."
"Why do you say this... I have a very independent personality, so it's not appropriate."
"You are wrong. You are polite, neither humble nor arrogant, and you have outstanding talent... Many people in the organization will spontaneously appreciate you." He changed the subject, "What did you just ask me? What is your future development?"
Fang Yi then repeated the question.
Han Sanping got up and walked around the circular platform of the fountain, and asked Fang Yi to stay where he was: "I plan to move towards the future now and see what changes will happen in the future. What will be the future development?"
He walked around in a circle, because this was a round platform, and of course he came back to Fang Yi: "It seems that when we go into the future, we will probably see you again, the changes will be you, and the development will be you."
