Entertainment Era: My Good Sister Is All Over the World

Chapter 91 The White-Robed Taoist Nun (Third Update, Please Subscribe)

the next morning.

Wu Tianming and Xu Xiaoming both came to Huang Wenbin's room.

Before filming each day, the three of them would get together briefly to discuss the upcoming scenes.

"The battle scene at Shaolin Temple is the highlight."

Wu Tianming said earnestly, "We contacted several temples, such as Daxingshan Temple and Xingjiao Temple, and they all agreed to filming. There is Daci'en Temple nearby, but the Big Wild Goose Pagoda stands there, and it can't be blocked, so it doesn't seem very suitable."

"It's alright," Huang Wenbin said casually. "We can film a scene of the main characters escaping at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. As for the other temples, I'll trouble Director Wu to take Director Xu to check them out this afternoon and find the most suitable locations."

"I think all the temples can be filmed, and then it can be edited later."

Xu Xiaoming, however, had a more open-minded view, saying with a smile: "Anyway, the audience in Hong Kong is tired of all kinds of sets, and now they just like the beautiful landscapes of our motherland. Even if it doesn't make sense, we should still film more scenery."

Upon hearing this, Huang Wenbin finally understood why there were so many geographical errors in the original film.

It's likely that Xu Xiaoming sacrificed some logic in order to showcase the scenery of mainland China.

Huang Wenbin was initially conflicted, but now he has figured it out.

The purpose of designing this escape scene is simply to showcase more scenery.

Now, he also wants to take more photos of the scenery to add fame and vitality to these historical sites, which can be considered as making some contribution to the local tourism industry.

Just like in "Journey to the West," he traveled all over the country, capturing countless stunning landscapes, which indeed boosted the tourism industry in many places.

"Alright, let's film the Shaolin Temple battle scene first today."

After considering it for a moment, Huang Wenbin immediately made a decision: "Then I'll trouble Director Wu to take the actors who have escape scenes to some lesser-known but beautiful scenic spots near Xi'an to film some scenes and see if we can boost the local tourism industry."

"Thank you so much!" Wu Tianming cupped his hands in thanks to Huang Wenbin.

This is a win-win situation, so why not do it?

There are two scenes depicting the battle at Shaolin Temple.

The first scene is at the beginning of the movie, where Supervisor Wang Cheng, along with several henchmen and Qi Tianyuan, comes to cause trouble, ultimately forcing Qi Tianyuan to take over the position of abbot.

The second battle is the final showdown, where the protagonist Huineng leads the Wudang forces back to Shaolin to rescue people, engages in a fierce battle with the villains, and ultimately achieves victory.

Both of these are the main events.

The three of them spent a long time planning before finalizing the filming plan.

After the meeting ended, Huang Wenbin turned to Wu Tianming and said, "By the way, I met a nice actress on the set of Xi'an Film Studio yesterday. I'm thinking of asking her to make a cameo appearance in one or two scenes. That should be fine, right?"

Wu Tianming asked, "There's no problem with its safekeeping, but I wonder which actor it belongs to?"

"Her name is Zhu Lin, and she should be on the set of 'The Traitor' right now," Huang Wenbin replied.

"Oh, I see." Wu Tianming immediately looked enlightened. "That's Director Zhang Qichang's film crew. It's one of the major productions for our Xi'an Film Studio in the first quarter."

As he spoke, he suddenly suggested, "Then let's have each other fill in the scenes. I'll go talk to Director Zhang about it."

"No problem." Huang Wenbin nodded.

Wu Tianming suggested, "Then I'll take you to meet Director Zhang."

The three of them left the guesthouse together and headed towards Studio No. 4 of the Xi'an Film Studio.

The crew of "The Traitor" filmed some scenes in the hospital at the end of the movie here.

"Xiaolin, how come your acting has improved so much in just one night?"

Director Zhang Qichang is fifty years old this year. Although his hairline has receded quite a bit, he has striking eyebrows and bright eyes that give him an air of authority, and he usually looks quite serious.

Now, however, he praised Zhu Lin: "You're much more natural than before. Keep up the good work and continue to improve."

Zhu Lin was also very pleased: "Thank you for the compliment, Director Zhang."

"Sister Lin, did you take some kind of magic pill last night?" Narenhua, who plays the female lead, smiled sweetly and teased, "You suddenly got it today and your acting is so good, I can hardly keep up with you."

"

Although Naren Hua is ten years younger than Zhu Lin, she debuted much earlier. In 1976, at the age of 14, she starred in "Battlefield Chrysanthemums." Last year, her role as the lead in the women's gymnastics film "The Flying Swallow" brought her considerable fame. In 1982, she was admitted to the Yenching Film Academy, and after graduating, she went to England for further studies. Upon her return, she starred in the film "Xiang Girl Xiao Xiao," winning the Best Actress award at the 7th Golden Rooster Awards.

Later, some of his more influential roles were Secretary Yang in "Parents' Love" and the mother of Bai Ke's character in "Jiang Zhao and Dawn".

The lead actor, Ma Jinwu, also expressed his appreciation for Zhu Lin's progress.

Zhu Lin's gratitude towards Huang Wenbin deepened even further.

"Director Zhang, Director Zhang!"

Just as Zhang Qichang was about to suggest taking a break to finish filming the remaining scenes, he suddenly heard shouts from behind him.

He slowly turned around and saw Xiao Wu from the factory leading a few people toward him.

"Oh, it's Xiao Wu. What's up?" Zhang Qichang asked.

Wu Tianming didn't beat around the bush. Pointing to Huang Wenbin and Xu Xiaoming behind him, he introduced them to them: "These two are the planner and director of the film crew of 'The Cotton Robe.' This is Huang Wenbin, who was seconded from Beijing Film Studio; this is Xu Xiaoming, who is a compatriot from Hong Kong."

"You two are both so young! Truly, heroes emerge from among the young!" Zhang Qichang exclaimed in surprise at their youth. "When I was your age, I had just been assigned to the Beijing Film Studio as an actor."

"Then you're my senior!" Huang Wenbin immediately tried to ingratiate himself. "My apologies for not being more respectful."

Zhang Qichang burst into laughter, pointing at Huang Wenbin and saying, "I remember now, I went back to Yanjing a while ago and heard people talk about you. I didn't expect to run into you here today."

"That's fate!" Wu Tianming said with a smile.

Xu Xiaoming was curious about the filming methods used in mainland China and kept looking around the studio.

It has to be said that the mainland is much more grand; even the film studios there are much more impressive than Shaw Brothers'.

The actual area might be similar to some of Shaw Brothers' film sets, but for some reason, Shaw Brothers' sets always give off a small and stingy feeling, probably because they used too much plastic set material.

Wu Tianming got straight to the point: "The reason I brought them to see you, Director Zhang, is that Planner Huang came up with a suggestion. He wants the actors from the two film crews to make cameo appearances in each other's films to add some fun to the movie."

"Sure, no problem!" Zhang Qichang readily agreed, but pointed to the bald young man following behind them: "However, there are no monks in my movie."

Huang Wenbin said with a smile, "It's alright, just put the hats on them."

"But you, I think you're pretty good. How about you do a cameo?" Zhang Qichang spotted Huang Wenbin at a glance: "You're so tall and handsome, it's a waste for you to be a planner. You should act in a movie."

Huang Wenbin waved his hand: "Forget it, I prefer working behind the scenes. Let's talk about acting later."

"If you don't want to make a cameo appearance, then I won't agree," Zhang Qichang said, shaking his head directly.

"Alright then." Huang Wenbin thought for a moment that it wouldn't hurt to have a cameo role that lasted only a few seconds.

Zhang Qichang laughed and immediately said, "Then you can choose whichever actor you want to make a cameo appearance over there."

"Anyone who wants to come and have a cameo in one or two scenes is welcome to come," Huang Wenbin said, looking at Zhu Lin and the others. "Anyone interested in trying out action scenes?"

"I'll do it!" Narenhua was the first to raise her hand, smiling as she said, "I played a gymnast last year, so my athletic ability is still there. Playing a martial arts master shouldn't be a problem."

Huang Wenbin smiled and said to Ma Jinwu, "Teacher Ma, how about you, would you like to make a cameo appearance?"

Ma Jinwu is a teacher in the Acting Department of Yanjing Film Academy and also the head of the Acting Teaching and Research Group.

He knew Huang Wenbin, but they weren't very familiar with each other.

Ma Jinwu said with a smile, "I would also like to try making a martial arts film, but I'm not clumsy enough and I'm afraid I won't have the strength to do it, which might delay your business."

"1

"That's no problem." Huang Wenbin had expected this, and pointed to Xu Xiaoming: "This Hong Kong compatriot has been doing this since he was a child and has been a stuntman for several years. He knows best how to teach people to film action scenes. He'll just need to strike a pose or two, and that'll be about it."

Hearing this, Ma Jinwu felt much more at ease and said, "Alright, then I'll also have a taste of being a chivalrous hero."

This old man later played Bu Ying, Yan Shuangying's master, and Lao Daobazi, who looked very much like Bu Ying.

Director Zhang Qichang quickly wrote out the scenes featuring Huang Wenbin and the others in cameo roles.

Zhao Changjun plays the officer who comes to arrest the protagonist, Professor Niu, while Donnie Yen and the others play patients in the hospital who have lost their arms and legs in a fight.

Huang Wenbin was cast as the fiancé of the second female lead, Shen Hong. Because he was several years younger than Shen Hong, she didn't dare mention it to Professor Niu and the others. In the finale, after hearing some rumors, he rushed to the hospital to see Shen Hong, and Shen Hong was finally forced to reveal their relationship.

This wasn't something Huang Wenbin actively asked Zhang Qichang for; it was Zhang Qichang's own idea.

Because the female lead Tian Tian, ​​played by Narenhua, has a boyfriend, Li Jun, who is manipulated by the villain in the drama.

Another female character is Tian Tian's mother, who was Professor Niu's lover when he was young.

Shen Hong is the only one alone. This is a movie with a love story, so if a male character is to be added, it would be most suitable to add him to the role.

Zhu Lin's face flushed slightly, and a strange feeling welled up in her heart, as if it were a real thing.

Huang Wenbin was alright, he just found it a bit novel, he felt that he had fulfilled Tang Sanzang's dream.

These scenes were all very simple, and almost everyone nailed them in one take.

Then Huang Wenbin took the actors away to the nearby Da Ci'en Temple, found a suitable hall, and filmed the two fight scenes.

Zhu Lin was also watching an action scene for the first time, and thought to herself, "So that's how it is. It's really quite chaotic."

Narenhua felt it was too exciting. In the second half, she made a cameo appearance as the youngest daughter of the Grand Alliance Leader, took down two or three minions, and exclaimed that it was so enjoyable.

Ma Jinwu plays an old Taoist priest, and under Xu Xiaoming's guidance, he also performs martial arts moves quite well.

Old Master Liu Xun thought to himself, why not let him play the role of the Master of Wudang Mountain, and he can just play the role of a dead eunuch?

However, Ma Jinwu didn't have time to go to Wudang Mountain. After filming the indoor scenes for their drama "The Traitor," they still had to go to the southwest to film outdoor scenes.

Zhu Lin played a white-robed Taoist nun from Wudang Mountain.

Her current makeup and clothing were styled at Huang Wenbin's suggestion.

She looked pretty and elegant, innocent and ethereal, and was very eye-catching.

This kid was just putting in his own personal stuff, so he could easily play some uniform play in the future.

cough!
