Chapter 51 Little Black
"Qingxia, just run along this path, right in the middle of the thin line, don't be afraid!" Xu Zan said.
Although the main focus of the film is the garrison at Sihang Warehouse, Hsu Tsan still designed important plot points for Brigitte Lin.
Yang Huimin was not a regular soldier, but a boy scout, and was mainly responsible for transporting supplies and medicine.
She became famous throughout the country for delivering a flag to the Sihang Warehouse. However, she was later imprisoned in the Zhaizidong Concentration Camp for losing her luggage containing the butterfly.
Someone wrote a poem satirizing General Zhang, which included the lines: "Zhao Si is a womanizer, Zhu Wu is wild, and butterflies are fluttering about."
Although it was later verified that General Zhang was receiving Sir He in Beiping at the time and did not have a private meeting with Butterfly, it is clear that the common people do not care about the truth of such scandalous events.
Lin Qingxia, dressed in a Boy Scout uniform, had a slender waist and long, beautiful legs. She gave Xu Zan a three-finger salute.
"Mission accomplished!"
Despite saying that, Brigitte Lin was very nervous. She came to the set on the first day of filming and saw that several pigs had been blown up.
Although she had eaten whole pig feasts for two weeks, she didn't want to become a dead pig.
In this scene, Brigitte Lin carries a military flag, rushes through the cordoned-off area, and then dives into the water to swim across. This is one of her highlight moments in the film.
Another method was to call on Chinese people in the concession to donate money. She would stand in the back of a truck and shout through a loudspeaker.
As Lieutenant Fu shouted "On your marks!", Brigitte Lin had already begun her run-up. When the word "start" was called, she was exactly at the starting line.
Braving machine gun fire and bombs, Brigitte Lin made it to the bridge without serious injury. She stopped abruptly, her body swaying as she tried to maintain her balance.
Then she took a deep breath and jumped down, her skirt billowing in the wind, her hands waving in the air.
It slammed onto the air cushion with a bang.
"Cut!" Xu Zan shouted from the bridge, "Qingxia, come up, let's run it one more time!"
Lin Qingxia was panting heavily. The leap she had just taken was really thrilling. She was still a little dizzy when she got ashore.
"Brother Zan, is there anything I did wrong?" she asked breathlessly.
"Take a few more takes to find the best pose." Xu Zan patted her back and whispered in her ear, "Keep it up, try to understand the character based on your intuition!"
"Okay," Lin Qingxia nodded, then suddenly bent down and sniffed herself. "Shall we go to the hot springs tonight?"
Xu Zan paused for a moment, thinking she was implying something, and glanced at her IWC watch to cover her embarrassment. "Let's talk about it later, we have filming tonight!"
These past few days, whenever she had free time, Zhang Aijia would stick to his side. It has to be said that when they first got together, they were both quite addicted.
Xu Zan, in particular, was tall and imposing, with great strength.
To meet Brigitte Lin's deadline, she also had to participate in Panda Entertainment's "Destined to Love You".
Gu Minglun has been cast as the male lead in this drama, and filming is expected to take one month.
This film is scheduled to be shot in Hong Kong. In addition to the main storyline of the male and female leads, Xu Zan has also added a lot of stories about the struggles of people who fled to Hong Kong.
In recent years, more and more people from the mainland have been going to Hong Kong. Even barbed wire fences cannot stop those who want to pursue a better life.
Xu Zan stood on the roof of the villa, looking down at the lighting effects. This scene was the most difficult to film in the entire movie.
Due to current photography technology, to capture clear footage, multiple cameras are needed to follow the convoy. The camera positions cannot be too high or too low, and post-production editing techniques are also required.
Xu Zan had the troupe rehearse below. After watching for a while, he felt that the lighting was still insufficient to make the huge flag look majestic.
"Try shining some lights down from above!"
The lighting crew was exhausted, carrying lights and running around the building with long power cords. Meanwhile, the extras who were supposed to throw money upstairs were sitting inside playing cards.
That was a fantastic night's paycheck. I made money without doing anything, and it had to be from a big director. That's incredibly generous.
"Boss, could you introduce me to the director?" Xiao Hei said.
"What's the rush? When we wrap up, the director will definitely treat us to a late-night snack. I'll take you there, and you can go and say hello," the foreman of the extras said.
Xiao Hei nodded and immediately played a small card, letting the lead extra play. He knew he had to be adept at social etiquette. Last year, he participated in a motorcycle obstacle course and won the championship.
He thought life would get better, but there are relatively few commercial motorcycle races in Taiwan, so without races, he has little income.
I'm 23 and don't have a proper job. How am I going to find a wife in the future?
I finally managed to get a role in the film "The Eight Hundred Heroes" through connections, becoming an extra.
By midnight, the scene still hadn't been filmed, so Xu Zan asked the assistant director to order some late-night snacks so everyone could rest for a while.
Ko Chun-hsiung and the others, who had no scenes to film, did not leave. Instead, they sat around Hsu Tsan, chatting about the gossip they had heard.
"Luo Wei's new film 'Fist of Fury' has flopped in Hong Kong. Even with the original cast, it couldn't replicate the box office success of the original!"
"Only 450,000 in box office revenue, a huge loss. What's that guy he's promoting? Jackie Chan? Does he really think he's a dragon? He's nowhere near as handsome as Bruce Lee!"
Zhang Aijia unscrewed a bottle of beverage and handed it to Xu Zan, "Even with Miao Kexiu and Chen Xing there, they didn't get dragged up."
She was an actress with Chia-Ho before, and she knew Miao Ke-hsiu; they had a pretty good relationship.
The idea for "New Fist of Fury" was good, but Luo Wei didn't consider the audience's feelings. What kind of actions and appearance did they see Chen Zhen in the past?
How can the audience accept a sudden change to a thug-like kung fu kid? Besides, his kung fu is terrible, and the fight scenes aren't entertaining.
It feels like forced sentimentality!
Xu Zan nodded without offering an opinion, instead thinking about how to get his hands on Cheng Long. Cheng Long's current value is very low, so he figured he could talk to some of his underworld connections and Luo Wei might be able to release him.
With Jackie Chan on board, Xu Zan can film "Snake in the Eagle's Shadow" next year. Moreover, he knows Yuan Xiaotian, which will allow him to hire Yuan Heping.
At this moment, the big star in the crew noticed that someone had appeared next to him at some point, someone who was dark-skinned.
Xu Zan recognized him and nodded at Xiao Hei.
"Director, hello, my name is Ke Shouliang. I'm a stuntman," Xiao Hei said with a smile and a bow.
"Hey, stunt performer," Xu Zan pointed to an open space nearby, "do a few backflips here and let me see!"
Ke Shouliang immediately went over and started doing backflips. Although they weren't perfect, he fell to the ground after a few, awkwardly laughing as he circled his head.
His funny actions made many celebrities sit there and laugh out loud.
"Okay, I remember you can ride a motorcycle, right?" Xu Zan asked.
Ke Shouliang quickly stood up. "That's right, Director Xu, I won the championship by sheer luck!"
"Okay, Xiao Guo? Guo Suying?" Xu Zan called out to the side.
After a while, Guo Suying walked over, yawning and rubbing her eyes. "Brother Zan, what's up?"
"This person is joining our company. Go through the paperwork for him; he doesn't need to come to the set tomorrow!"
"Huh? Brother Zan, what's his position?" Guo Suying was clearly unaware of what had happened.
"Be my bodyguard!" Xu Zan said casually.
Ke Shouliang expressed his gratitude repeatedly, never expecting to become his bodyguard. Although it was different from the job he had envisioned, at least he had a stable income.
