Chapter 1,453 May the morning sun always shine on my land
Although the filming of the movie was bumpy and bumpy, and Li Yi repeatedly emphasized safety during the process, it is a pity that if accidents can be guaranteed, they will not be accidents.
Zhao Qian was still injured, and this time the injury was quite serious.
Don't expect action scenes. Li Yi couldn't help but feel a little surprised whether the "Once Upon a Time" series of movies is really suitable?
In my memory, the leading actor in the original Once Upon a Time was also injured in an accident during filming, which led to the fact that most of the fight scenes in the subsequent third film were done by the actors from Gui Jiao Qi.
The trouble must be quite troublesome. Because of the injury, he was unable to move, so he definitely couldn't use close-up shots for Zhao Qian. He couldn't complete all the kicks, somersaults, and full-body shots.
So Li Yi had no choice but to find a stand-in for Zhao Qian. Fortunately, Xiong Jun's figure was not much different from Zhao Qian's. If he didn't take a close-up shot, he didn't need to worry about being a stand-in.
"He was performing a martial arts performance on the stage, but I was sitting there pretending to be a great master." Zhao Qian said rather self-deprecatingly.
Because Zhao Qian was unable to play every time he was filming a fighting scene, so he had to ask his stunt double Xiong Jun to fight for him. When the close-up of the camera came, Li Yi had to replace Zhao Qian immediately; so the crew had some interesting moments during the filming.
In the picture, Zhao Qian broke his leg while jumping from a high place, so he had a plaster hanging from his foot. However, when filming, it was not placed on his lower body, but on his face. At this time, he still had to
Showing either determination or a playful expression.
In fact, it was not just Zhao Qian who was injured, Wu Jun was also injured a little, but his injuries were not as serious as Zhao Qian's, so he still gritted his teeth and endured it.
The filming process was bumpy and bumpy. It can be said that by the end, the camp was almost full of injured soldiers, but the movie still had to be shot, and no one complained about pain.
This kind of spirit where everyone is united and focused on making good movies is really hard to see now. Of course, this is also partly because Li Yi's crew, he himself is the biggest boss, and he is famous.
So naturally there aren't that many nonsense things.
But try changing the crew.
This time, everyone was more involved in the shooting than before, but because the shooting was more difficult, the shooting efficiency was not as good as before. Li Yi was not in a hurry. After all, he had plenty of time.
However, news such as injuries during filming cannot always be kept under wraps and spread out quickly. However, this is not a bad thing.
At least in terms of public opinion, Zhao Qian and others have been praised and praised for their dedicated spirit of persisting in filming despite being injured.
This has also made more movie fans look forward to the next two parts of "Once Upon a Time".
Many movie fans even said directly: "Don't be like squeezing out toothpaste. Watching one movie at a time will make people in Hollywood next door think we can't watch movies!"
"That's it! Let's play both together!"
"The cracked wall requires both parts to be released together!"
"Aren't we all filming together? Then let's do it together."
Wait, wait, at first it was only a small group of netizens who were making fun of it, but gradually more and more people joined in and requested that the next two parts of "Once Upon a Time" be released together.
In fact, the conditions are there. Li Yi's filming this time is not like the previous "Men Should Be Strong". Instead, he will directly shoot the third part at the same time and then do post-production.
In fact, the last two parts of "Once Upon a Time" are not particularly long on average, and they add up to less than four hours.
With the influence created by the first film, Li Yi's own influence, and the enthusiasm of the fans, there is actually no need to worry about any problems if the two movies are released together.
The theater chain will not refuse, why?
Because this does not mean that one movie is very long, but two movies. Even if tickets are sold, they must be sold together for both movies.
But there are still some drawbacks to releasing them together like this, so Li Yi won't consider doing this for the time being.
But what he didn't expect was the enthusiasm of netizens and movie fans.
The post about requesting that the next two parts of "Once Upon a Time" be released together has over a million comments.
It can definitely be called an exaggeration.
Although everyone seems to be very active in joining in the fun now, it may not be possible to get them to buy tickets to watch a movie, but this is enough for Li Yi to pay attention to.
How about giving it a try?
Li Yi felt that it was rare for movie fans to be so enthusiastic, so he would satisfy them.
In fact, it may have a certain impact on the box office, but in his opinion, the impact will not be too great.
Time flies very quickly despite being so busy. In the blink of an eye, nearly three months have passed since filming started again, and the final two parts have been officially announced.
When Li Yi shouted "It's finished", the whole crew cheered loudly. There was no way. Although everyone had a fulfilling life in the past three months, the pressure was also great, and the key is, there were people constantly
The injury also had a great negative impact on the crew.
Fortunately it's finally over.
Naturally, Li Yi was not stingy about holding a wedding banquet in a grand hotel. In this regard, Li Yi was quite generous.
Others could take a breather, rest, travel and relax, but not Li Yi. He only rested for a week before starting post-production.
However, the post-production of the "Once Upon a Time" series is actually not complicated. Li Yi himself has the original version as a reference. In addition, action movies and martial arts movies are actually very difficult to shoot. The most critical aspect of post-production is just
There are basically no editing or other special effects.
Therefore, post-production does not require Li Yi to expend too much energy. It is completely different from filming.
Of course, this is him.
No need to try again and again, just get it right in one step.
But after all, they are two movies, so it still took some time.
Finally, both "Once Upon a Time: A Man Should Be Strong" and "Once Upon a Time: The Lion King" have completed all the work and are officially declared complete.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The last two parts of "Once Upon a Time" have been completed, and Li Yi can finally breathe a sigh of relief. In fact, as a director, his body is not tired during filming.
After all, he doesn't need to be beaten like an actor, but the crew's constant accidents have put even Li Yi under a lot of pressure.
So after finishing the film, Li Yi handed over the two films to the company, and then went out with his wife and children.
Now that the movie is finished and Li Yi has decided to screen the two movies back-to-back, the plan will definitely begin to be implemented.
Fortunately, this is a series and a sequel, so you don’t really need to worry too much about promotion.
In addition, with the success of the first film, both the theaters and other colleagues knew that they would have to make time for these two films this time, so when they learned that "Once Upon a Time in China"
"After the two parts were released, the movies that were originally scheduled to be released at that time were withdrawn.
There is no way, no matter how stubborn they are, they will not be stupid enough to go head-to-head with Li Yi's movie, and it is also the follow-up two parts of the series!
After all, no one wants to have a bloody head, right?
After the promotion of "Once Upon a Time in China" and "Once Upon a Time in the Lion King" began, the discussion on these two movies naturally became more intense.
Netizens and movie fans are quite happy about the two movies being released at the same time.
In fact, as everyone said, they are really not short of money to watch the movie!
As long as the movie is good enough, Chinese movie fans are still very willing to buy it.
Because of the foundation of the first film, "Once Upon a Time in China" and "Once Upon a Time in the Lion King" skipped the screening stage and were released directly to the public.
Because there is no need to do any more screenings!
In terms of film arrangement, "Once Upon a Time: A Man Should Be Strong" and "Once Upon a Time: The Lion King" can be purchased individually or as a package.
Of course, there will be a certain discount when buying a package.
As a result, after the reservation channel was opened, the reservation box office immediately exploded.
The key is that people who buy package tickets account for 80% of the total, and nearly 80% of the audience choose to buy package tickets directly.
What’s interesting is that netizens have also posted their booking records on the Internet.
"Record jpg, Mr. Dog, you dare to release it at the same time, we really don't lack the money for a movie!"
“Book a package.jpg, don’t say anything, just do what you say!”
"Finally, I can watch it all at once!"
"..."
For a time, posting booking records actually became a trend.
Finally, the time has come for the two parts of "Once Upon a Time" to be released. This time, Li Yi also did not hold a premiere. Again, there is really no need.
Most of the time, premieres are held to promote movies, but the movie's promotion is already strong enough, so there is no need to go through such a formality.
Of course, Li Yi would never admit it. He just thought it was troublesome.
Zhou Qingquan walked into the theater and booked a package ticket. As one of Li Yi's die-hard film critics, Zhou Qingquan would naturally not miss Li Yi's new film, and it is also his favorite Once Upon a Time series.
In fact, after watching the first part, Zhou Qingquan always felt that this story had just begun, but he really didn't know how Li Yi would film it in the future, but he was always looking forward to it.
In fact, after the release of "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun", many similar martial arts film projects were approved, and there were even relatively fast copycat films that were released. Thanks to the influence of "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun", these follow-up films
This work, although the production is relatively rough, has still achieved certain results. Of course, comparison is harmful.
In contrast, everyone is naturally looking forward to the high-quality genuine "Once Upon a Time" movie.
"Old Zhou, what a coincidence?" Zhou Qingquan found his seat and sat down when he heard an old acquaintance in the front row shout.
"Old Xu, it's you, what a coincidence!" Zhou Qingquan was also a little surprised to see Xu Jian.
The two of them are peers and old acquaintances.
"To be honest, I am very curious about what theme Li Yi will set for the next two parts of "Once Upon a Time". To be honest, the essence of the first part is not the theme. Top Gun is a bit too general, and the first part does not break away from the old
There are some patterns, and the most exciting thing is the presentation of the social floating world of the late Qing Dynasty. If the second and third parts are still the same, it will be really disappointing," Xu Jian said.
"I think with Director Li Yi's consistent style, if he chooses to make a sequel, he must be confident. On the contrary, I am looking forward to it." Zhou Qingquan said with a smile.
This is also true. Li Yi actually makes relatively few series films.
At this time, the theater where they were sitting was already packed with seats, and it was packed to the brim. Even the seats at the front, where the movie-watching experience was not particularly good, were filled with people.
This shows the enthusiasm of the audience for the "Once Upon a Time" series.
Finally the lights dimmed and the big screen changed from advertisements to feature films.
The opening of the second part made Zhou Qingquan and Xu Jian look surprised.
The opening of the second part shows the Jiugong master of the White Lotus Sect opening an altar to practice.
From the perspective of today's people, of course we know that the so-called invulnerability, the so-called invulnerability to fire and water are all nonsense, they are all tricks and tricks to fool people.
As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, while insiders watch the door.
Ordinary viewers saw the opening scene of the White Lotus Sect and thought that Director Gou was really good at filming and created the atmosphere very well. Although they all knew that it was a trick to fool people, it still gave people a good feeling when it was filmed.
But whether Zhou Qingquan or Xu Jian, they felt that opening the second part with the White Lotus Sect drama was a very subtle choice.
Why do you say that?
How the first part highlights the ignorance of the people at the bottom of society at that time is through the golden mountain promoted by foreign traffickers!
The second part goes even further. The more backward a country is, the easier it is to fall into the quagmire of religious superstition. China in the late Qing Dynasty was no exception. Therefore, the White Lotus Sect that appeared at the beginning of "Men Should Strengthen themselves" was a typical representative of that time.
People who are familiar with history should know that in the late Qing Dynasty, there were endless religions for the ignorant masses such as White Lotus Sect and Hong Deng Zhao.
A particularly interesting scene was when a Dalmatian was being led over when the foreigners' gadgets were being burned. The audience found it funny, but the film critics had other ideas.
"The dog has leprosy, it's a demon dog! Burn it to death!"
He said the funniest words in a serious manner, but in that era, what was even more frightening was that this was not a joke, but a side reflection of the public's attitude towards new things.
Even people with a high social reputation like Huang Feihong had an inexplicable resistance to foreign things and Western culture at the beginning, let alone ordinary people?
So that is indeed a kind of ignorance, but it is the most authentic portrayal of that era.
Especially at the end of the scene with the White Lotus Sect, the shot of the White Lotus Virgin raising her head is even more meaningful.
The so-called Holy Mother of White Lotus is just a child, but why did it become like this?
After the scene of the White Lotus Sect, the music melody of the familiar scene "Men Should Strengthen Theirself" sounded again, and the brothers of the militia were sweating on the seaside with the sky full of morning glow.
However, the difference is that this time, Huang Feihong started riding on a speeding train, in the morning when the sun was rising again!
The opening chapter is a short funny plot, and it also points out through dialogue that Huang Feihong was invited to attend a medical exchange meeting.
