"I think Shiying has already told you about the situation. Since it was Shiying who introduced me, I believe she is right. Well, can you ride a horse? Today's scene involves riding a horse. Wu Ziyuan can't ride a horse and needs a substitute.
." Guan Hong said.
"Horse riding? Oh, I can." Xue Chen nodded.
"Well, let's not waste time and give it a try first." Guan Hong was the first to walk out.
Xue Chen glanced at everyone in the Caigang room and asked Du Tao in a low voice: "Where is the male lead? Who is it?"
Du Tao curled his lips: "You mean Wu Ziyuan? He should still be sleeping. Humph, this person just relies on having a good skin and a bit of popularity, but he is not dedicated at all. He will not be able to use a substitute.
Acting by himself, for a three-day play, he can only act for one day at most, and the rest will be done by a stand-in."
"Oh, that's right." Xue Chen nodded and walked out of the color steel room together.
At this time, director Guan Hong had already led a maroon horse beside him.
"Xue Chen, can you really ride a horse? But be careful, it's cold and slippery now, don't fall." Han Shiying walked aside, looked sideways, and reminded softly.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Xue Chen strode over and took the reins of the maroon horses. He reached out and touched the horses' heads, smoothed their manes, turned over and jumped onto the horses' backs, knocking their insteps.
, the horse under him kicked and trotted around the open space.
Guan Hong looked at Xue Chen's skillful riding movements and nodded with satisfaction. He seemed to be quite capable of getting on the horse without even stepping on the stirrups. He should be able to serve as a stand-in, and the wonderful thing is that with the height and body shape of the male lead Wu Ziyuan,
They are all about the same age.
When Xue Chen came back from riding a horse, Guan Hong said: "Very good, remember, you play Zhao Zicheng, the second in command of the bandits. The first scene today is you riding a horse to carry the female mountain bandit played by Shi Ying.
Qin Yuehong, the third leader of the bandits, ran away on the mountain road to avoid the pursuit of the Japanese."
Jumping off the horse, Xue Chen was very excited and happy thinking that he was going to act for the first time. Although he was just a stand-in, it felt very fresh and he was eager to try: "Director Guan, I understand."
"Very good, let's try it out now. This is your first time filming. Don't be nervous. Even if you make a mistake, it's okay. You can retake it, but you must pay attention to safety when riding a horse." Guan Hong clapped his hands and shouted,
"Xiaomei, come here."
A woman in her thirties walked out of the colored steel room. Xue Chen took a look and saw that her hairstyle, body shape and face were somewhat similar to Han Shiying's, so she realized that this person should be Han Shiying's stand-in.
.
As expected, Guan Hong shook his head and said, "Xiaomei, you can take part in today's horseback drama."
Before the female stand-in named Xiao Mei could speak, Han Shiying said, "Well, I'll do this scene, so there's no need for Sister Mei." She added at the end that I can trust Xue Chen.
"Are you sure?" Guan Hong said hesitantly.
Shooting scenes on horseback is quite dangerous, especially now that the weather is very cold and the ground is already a little frozen and slippery. This is a safety hazard. Generally speaking, this kind of dangerous scene involves a long shot and requires a stunt double.
Up.
Xue Chen smiled and joked to Han Shiying: "Don't worry about me accidentally throwing you off the horse, you are a rich man."
Han Shiying cast a charming look: "Can you do it?"
The filming of the first scene was about to start, and dozens of people in the entire crew were busy, listening to Director Guan shouting about lighting, photography, props...
After more than half an hour, everything was ready and the camera was set up, aiming at a road from a distance.
At one end of the road, Xue Chen, who had already changed into the costumes prepared by the crew, first got on the horse, then pulled Han Shiying on the horse and sat in front of him, and the two of them rode together.
Xue Chen's arms went around both sides of Han Shiying's body and grabbed the reins.
"Huh." After sitting down, Han Shiying let out a long breath, turned back with a blushing face, her eyes rolled, and she pursed her lips and smiled, "Don't knock me off my horse."
"No." Xue Chen said with certainty, reaching out and touching the necks of the big horses under him, feeling some rejuvenation. Immediately, the bay-red horse became excited and kept twisting its hooves.
Han Shiying made a prepared gesture towards Director Guan from a distance.
Director Guan raised an arm, and when everything was ready, he lowered his arm forcefully.
"drive!"
Xue Chen shook the reins, and the bay-red horse spread its hooves and ran wildly along the road.
Director Guan Hong looked at the screen where the camera was following the shooting, and said with constant joy in his heart: Good, good, good, keep it up...
Han Shiying had previously filmed a circus scene in a time-travel drama in which she was carried by a prince and ran on the grassland. But compared with the speed at this moment, it was not called running on horseback, it was called walking!
"Xue Chen, is it... too fast!" Han Shiying said with a slightly trembling voice,
The maroon horse's hooves were flying, and waves of cold wind blew in her face, which even made her unable to open her eyes. She could only feel the wind and lightning.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Since you are escaping, you have to be faster." Xue Chen replied,
A road of more than 300 meters was swept by the wind, and the horses' hooves made a sound like raindrops on the hard ground.
"Xu."
When he saw Director Guan shouting "stuck", Xue Chen reined in the reins.
Han Shiying panted rapidly, her heart beating like a drum. When she felt the horse stop, she opened her eyes with lingering fear. She also realized that the scene had been filmed. When she realized that she was leaning against Xue
In Chen's arms, her cheeks turned red.
At this time, Guan Hong and several crew members strode over with smiles on their faces: "Okay, very good, very good, the scene just now was simply perfect!"
The other crew members also nodded. The scene just now completely exceeded everyone's expectations and was even better than the ideal situation.
The horse's galloping speed was so rare that the tense atmosphere was fully revealed, as well as the feeling of life and death shared by the second and third masters of the bandits in the play.
"Shiying, I really want to thank you for finding such a good substitute for me." Guan Hong said with a smile.
Han Shiying got off the horse, took a deep breath and touched her face.
Xue Chen turned over and jumped off the horse and asked: "Director Guan, is this scene over?"
"Well, after one try, there are no flaws at all." Guan Hong gave a thumbs up, "Your riding skills are really good."
"What about the next scene?"
"Okay, let's start preparing now. The plot of the next scene is..."
The plot of the next scene is that Zhao Zicheng, the second leader of the bandits, is hiding in a tree on the roadside. When a three-wheeled motorcycle with a bucket used by the little devils to deliver messages passes under the tree,
Jump down, kill the kid in the car, and intercept the letter.
The group of people walked along the road for a while, and Guan Hong pointed to a thick tree growing on the roadside.
After telling Xue Chen about the plot, Guan Hong shouted in his unique loud voice: "The prop team is preparing wires, and there are also three-wheelers coming..."
Xue Chen pointed to a branch of the thick tree more than three meters above the ground and asked: "Director Guan, should I just stand there and jump down?"
"Yes, it's that tree branch, but don't worry, we won't let you jump directly. With Wire hanging you, there's no danger at all." Guan Hong explained.
"No, no, no, Director Guan, that's not what I meant. I just wanted to say that there is no need to hang the wire rope, I can just jump." Xue Chen said.
"No wire? Just jump?" Guan Hong was stunned, "Are you kidding?"
"No, I already understand the plot. If a tricycle comes over and I jump into the truck, won't it be gone?" Xue Chen asked.
Looking at Guan Hong, who had a straight brow and a suspicious look on his face, Han Shiying glanced at Xue Chen and said to Guan Hong: "Director Guan, Xue Chen... well, he is very skilled. Since he said so, then
It shows that this scene is not difficult for him."
Guan Hong thought about it in his mind. If he really didn't use wires, then he would be very happy. The effect of shooting without wires would be better. A long shot could be shot directly in one go without splicing fragments. The picture quality would be better, but it would be too difficult.
It's too high, and it's too dangerous. You have to jump directly from a tree more than three meters high into the carriage of a moving tricycle. If you make a mistake, you may suffer fractures or even death...
"Well, since you said you don't use Wire, then try jumping down from the tree branch and let me see." Guan Hong pondered and said, turning around and shouting, "Bring a ladder and let him climb up the tree...
…”
Before he finished speaking, Xue Chen had already arrived under the tree. He jumped easily, grabbed a branch with both hands, straightened his waist easily and turned over. In the blink of an eye, he was standing on the tree more than three meters high.
On a tree branch.
Guan Hong opened his mouth: "Oh, pretend I didn't say, there is no need for a ladder..."
The other crew members all raised their heads and opened their mouths, thinking, is this person a monkey? Why does he move so fast?
Du Tao, who had been following behind, smacked his lips: "No wonder Xu Longjiang asked him to film the movie. He is simply invincible and saves him a lot of trouble."
Han Shiying's eyes were also particularly bright, staring at Xue Chen.
Xue Chen jumped down from the tree more than three meters tall with a light leap, and landed firmly on the ground. His face was not red and he was not out of breath, and his movements were indescribably free and carefree.
Guan Hong scratched his hair hard and asked seriously: "Do you think it's really possible?"
"Don't worry, there's no problem." Xue Chen smiled calmly.
"Okay, I'll do as you said." Guan Hong nodded vigorously.
The entire crew was busy again, preparing for the second scene.
When Guan Hong's arm dropped to signal the shooting, everyone held their breath and watched from a distance without blinking.
A dark green three-wheeled motorcycle, puffing out black smoke, drove over from the far side of the road. There were two Japanese soldiers in military uniforms sitting on the car, one driving the car and the other sitting in the side of the car.
When the car drove under the tree, Xue Chen, who was hiding on the other side of the tree, jumped down and stepped exactly on the back of the tricycle beside it, which was behind the two Japanese soldiers.
Shocked, he turned around and shouted Bagayalu. Just as he was about to take out his gun, a dagger was wiped across his neck. (To be continued)
