Chapter 974: It should be fried or it should be fried (4000+ chapters~)
"Heaven of ice and fire!"
The day before they were in the hot Tangier, and today they arrived in the cold Swiss town of Zermatt.
Ordinary people may not have any impression of the small town of Zermatt, but in the hearts of ski enthusiasts, this is a holy place, because one of the best ski resorts in the world, Zermatt Ski Resort, is located here.
In the evaluation of European ski resorts, it ranks 7th for professional skiing, 1st for town charm, 7th for catering, and 2nd for scenery.
This shows how attractive this place is to ski enthusiasts.
In the honest Hong Kong movies we have watched, there are always rich people who say they want to go skiing in Switzerland. In fact, they are talking about here, as well as the St. Moritz Ski Resort and Titlis Snow Mountain in Switzerland. It can be said that the entire Switzerland is for ski enthusiasts.
country.
This is also related to the country’s geographical conditions. Switzerland is dominated by plateaus and mountains, and is known as the roof of Europe.
It is precisely because of this reputation that when the crew decided to shoot here, they had already booked a room at the hotel here two months in advance. If they came directly, there was a high possibility that there would be no room.
"Director Wu, the hotel has been arranged!" Yang Sanpao and his translator were already waiting for them at the train station.
There is no direct airport here, so you can only come here by train.
And because of Switzerland’s historical reasons, there are four official languages here: German, French, Italian, and Romansh, so it’s natural to hire a translator!
"How's the location inspection going?" Wu Jianye asked.
When he decided to shoot the movie "Inception" before, Wu Jianye had already asked Zhao Fei to come here to look for filming locations, and Yang Sanpao and others came here for inspection after completing the filming in France.
Getting ready for the photo shoot.
Yang Sanpao showed his trademark silly smile and said: "I've finished watching it. The environment is very good. We are ready!"
Wu Jianye nodded, and everyone got in the car and drove towards the hotel.
On the bus, several young actors sat looking at the scenery outside the bus window and chatting.
"I was wearing a T-shirt before, but now I have to wear a down jacket!" Huang Xiaochu joked.
Xu Zheng just recovered and said: "When I first got off the train, I almost froze to death!"
Others laughed. Huang Xiaochu is from Yanjing and Duan Yihong is from Yili. Naturally, they don't have much feeling for the cold weather. Although Mr. Zhou and Liu Yunlong are not from Yanjing, Mr. Zhou is even from the south.
But after all, I have been in Yanjing for two years and have become accustomed to such weather.
On the contrary, Xu Zheng, who had been studying in Shanghai before, was naturally not used to such weather, so when he just stepped off the train, he couldn't stand the weather here.
Wu Jianye sat in front of the bus and turned around and warned: "Drink some medicine first when you get to the hotel, so that everyone will not catch another cold due to the weather!"
Everyone also nodded.
Although the town of Zermatt only has a population of 4,000, it is still quite large. The overall housing construction is also in European style. Through the car window, you can see at least half of the pedestrians outside wearing various ski suits and carrying various items on their backs.
For skiers who are snowboarders, their thick ski boots force them to take long strides in a unique way, which makes them look slightly funny.
At the same time, there are many ski shops on both sides of the road. When the filming of the movie starts, the crew will also rent various equipment in these ski shops.
In the hotel, Wu Jianye saw the officials from the small town of Zermatt. They also welcomed Wu Jianye and the crew here very much. The situation was similar to that in Tangier. They all took a fancy to Wu Jianye's global influence.
, but officials in the small town of Zermatt value Wu Jianye’s influence more in Southeast Asia.
After all, there is no shortage of rich people in places such as Southeast Asia and Hong Kong, and skiing is almost the favorite sport of these rich people besides golf.
But what surprised Wu Jianye was that the officials from the small town of Zermatt had another request.
"Director Wu, we saw the castle built by your crew, could you please not blow it up?" the official from the town of Zermatt said with a smile.
After Zhao Fei decided to shoot here, Wu Jianye asked people to build the third dream castle here. Now that the castle has been completed, the small town of Zermatt wants to preserve it!
Wu Jianye smiled: "I'm really sorry, it should be blown up anyway!"
The scenes presented in this movie require authenticity. If this were not the case, Wu Jianye would not be able to lead the crew all over the world, and it is naturally impossible to let go of the castle now.
Seeing that Wu Jianye was so determined, the officials of the small town of Zermatt said nothing. This matter was originally their unilateral idea. If Wu Jianye disagreed, they had nothing to do.
"Okay, but Director Wu, we still have one thing to tell you!"
"you say!"
"That is, when filming, we must protect our environment..."
Wu Jianye had no objection to the opinions raised by the other party. After all, this was a small town mainly focused on tourism, and protecting the local environment was their most important priority. It was reasonable to raise such opinions.
"Don't worry, after the filming is over, we will have someone responsible for the cleaning work!" Wu Jianye replied.
"That's great. If Director Wu has any requests for the next filming, you can just ask us!" said an official from the small town of Zermatt.
"Thanks!"
The exchange between the two parties was quite pleasant. Officials from Zermatt Town also invited Wu Jianye to attend the dinner in the evening, but Wu Jianye refused because he wanted to see the built castle!
It's noon now, and although the shooting won't officially start today, it's still necessary to take a look at the venue.
So after seeing off the officials from Zermatt Town, Wu Jianye, led by Yang Sanpao and Zhao Fei, headed for the castle on the snowy mountain!
Riding on snowmobiles, everyone arrived at the castle.
"Huo, to be honest, I feel like it would be a pity to blow it up!" After everyone arrived at the castle and looked at the construction here, Zhao Fei sighed.
Wu Jianye still smiled and said: "It should be blown up anyway!"
Zhao Fei asked curiously: "You don't feel bad at all?"
Wu Jianye smiled: "There's nothing you can do about it. Even if you stay, it's not ours!"
Zhao Fei nodded and said: "That's true!"
Everyone wrapped themselves in their down jackets and walked into the steel building. The design inside was almost the same as the design drawings they had given, which made Wu Jianye quite satisfied.
After seeing the situation here, Wu Jianye asked Yang Sanpao: "Have you found all the professional skiers?"
Yang Sanpao and his people came here in advance. In addition to being familiar with the environment here, there is another problem, which is to find professional skiers here.
The filming here involved a lot of skiing scenes. Although Chen Daoxuan and others had received some training before, their professional movements still could not meet the requirements of the movie. At the same time, they had to be responsible for their safety, so they went to
Sometimes, a lot of skiers are used.
This has nothing to do with the actor's professionalism, but rather the protection of the actor's own safety and preparations to ensure the quality of the film.
Even Cheng Long, who claims to never use a stunt double, also said that he will use a double in some professional actions, so there is nothing to worry about here.
"We have found them. They can come over at any time!" Yang Sanpao replied.
Naturally, these people were not what Yang Sanpao was looking for, but other staff who came with him, but Yang Sanpao was in charge of everything here.
Wu Jianye said: "Find the actors and these athletes here tomorrow and give them two days to familiarize themselves with the environment here."
Ding Sheng replied: "Understood!"
After what happened in Paris, Ding Sheng's performance has been very good during this period. When he was in Tangier, he was praised by Wu Jianye, which made Ding Sheng completely believe what Jiang Xian told him.
if.
After everyone saw the environment here, they got up and went back to the hotel!
When they arrived at the hotel, Wu Jianye treated the entire crew to a feast.
On the second day, Chen Daoxuan, Zhou Gongzi, Duan Yihong, Jiang Xiu, Huang Xiaochu and others who were filming at the Zermatt ski resort were sent to the filming location and began to become familiar with the local environment and Taoism.
Although Zhu Hao also has a role in this scene, the happy thing about Zhu Hao is that she does not have any action scenes, so it will be very easy to shoot.
But when we come to Zermatt Ski Resort, everyone naturally wants to enjoy skiing.
Wu Jianye also accepted everyone's application and took everyone to ski.
A group of people came to the ski shop, rented a batch of ski equipment, and then went to the ski resort. Among the entire crew, there were really not many people who knew how to ski. If it comes to roller skating, people like Huang Xiaochu would definitely be fine.
, it’s a pity that he is not here either.
We hired a ski instructor and a group of people had a relatively good time under the guidance of the ski instructor.
Wu Jianye and Zhu Xian are the two who mastered it the fastest. Although they can't slide out various moves freely, at least they can't fall.
When everyone returned to the hotel in the evening, Huang Xiaochu and others also sighed when they heard that they were going skiing.
"What's there to sigh about? Aren't you guys skiing too?" Xu Zheng said with a smile.
Huang Xiaochu said: "Can it be the same? We are working and you are playing. I should have suggested to Director Wu that you people who have no role here should go to the next place and wait!"
Xu Zheng laughed and said: "It's not too late for you to say it now!"
Huang Xiaochu rolled his eyes at Xu Zheng and said, "Do I have the courage?"
Although in later generations Huang Xiaochu was a teacher and a senior, in front of Wu Jianye at this time, Huang Xiaochu was a junior, a junior, and a student, so naturally he didn't have the courage.
As for why I say he is an apprentice, it is because after Wu Jianye was transferred to the performance department, students in the performance department of any grade have listened to Wu Jianye's classes, and everyone is willing to call themselves Wu Jianye's students, because
This will also allow them to better find the crew after graduation.
"By the way, I heard that you stayed in school after graduation. Will you go back to school after filming this movie?" Xu Zheng asked curiously. Xu Zheng has also graduated from theater, but he is not like Huang.
Little chefs can also stay in school.
So I am still very curious about Huang Xiaochu’s next life.
Huang Xiaochu nodded and said: "Yes, I talked with the college before coming here. I will tutor other teachers when I go back this year."
Xu Zheng said: "After starring in Director Wu's movie, do you still have time to go to class?"
In the domestic film and television circles, there is a rule, that is, after starring in Wu Jianye's movies, he is basically famous in the domestic film and television circles. I dare not say that he is the protagonist in every movie, but at least
There will be no shortage of scenes to film!
That's why Xu Zheng asked this question.
"Why don't you have time? Yu Feihong, you know!" Huang Xiaochu asked.
"Of course I do, she is one of the most popular female stars in the country now!" Xu Zheng nodded.
The movie "Eternal Night" made Yu Feihong the hottest new female star in China, and now she is being cast in countless films.
"If she can calm down and return to school to teach, of course I can too!" Huang Xiaochu said firmly.
In fact, Yu Feihong didn't accept a single movie, but she did accept a modern movie. One reason is that the shooting location of this movie is Yanjing. In this case, it is easier for her to allocate time, and the other reason is that it is filming
The time will also accommodate her class time.
Actor's time management is actually a very profound knowledge. As Yu Feihong's agency, Tangting Culture also put a lot of effort into it.
Now that Huang Xiaochu is also an actor in Tangting Culture, the company will naturally plan for his future and respect Huang Xiaochu's decision. If Huang Xiaochu really decides to teach in a college after the movie, it will also
It will be the same treatment as Yu Feihong.
You can teach while filming!
Let’s talk about it later when Chef Huang needs to make his own choice.
In fact, in another time and space, when Wu Jianye was reborn, Huang Xiaochu had resigned from his duties as a teacher at the film school and concentrated on filming and variety shows!
There is no way around this. No matter how well you plan your time, it is not enough.
In fact, the students that Huang Xiaochu brought over from the film school are the students from the class of 1997 of Haiqing and others. After the students of the class of 1997 graduate, Huang Xiaochu has already focused his career planning on
When it comes to his acting career.
After Chen Daohuan and others became familiar with some basic movements of skiing, the filming of the movie officially began.
The mercenaries in the castle are basically local skiers and coaches. Fortunately, they don't have lines, as long as they can complete action scenes.
But even so, the filming here lasted for three weeks, mainly due to the weather. Human errors can be avoided through training, but natural factors, even Wu Jianye couldn't do anything about it!
