I'm not mentally ill, I'm a master of a thousand faces!

Chapter 144, A Big Treasure Happened

"Click"

"One pass"

It was done in one take.

Everyone's become a bit numb.

Every scene involving Li Yun was filmed in one take.

But it seems like no one can really say anything about it.

After all, they were really good actors.

"How are you all doing in the action scenes later?"

"I'm fine."

"I can"

Yang Xiaolong didn't ask Li Yun, but asked Yuan Qiu and Yuan Hua.

There's no need to even break character.

From the start of filming until now.

Li Yun has always been in the state of "Fire Cloud Evil God", a state that makes everyone keep their distance and there is no need for anyone to wait for him to get into character.

Since you've never truly stepped out of character, how could you possibly have the problem of getting too immersed in the role?

Li Yun is currently in this state.

"Is he really okay like this?"

At this moment, Yuan Qiu looked at Li Yun on the other side.

He was completely immersed in the role of the Fire Cloud Evil God, even displaying his murderous and evil aura to the fullest extent.

They still can't get out of character.

"There's a problem," Stephen Chow said firmly, pausing before adding, "but that's his problem."

Even a ghost could see that Li Yun's mental state, so immersed in the role, was not quite normal at this moment.

But for Stephen Chow and the "Kung Fu Hustle" crew, it was precisely this abnormality that gave the plot and the character a powerful boost, making the story and the characters more compelling.

It has a lot of tension.

At this moment, Yuanhua hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"But this mental state..."

It's not that I'm particularly worried about Li Yun's mental state.

He was constantly in the state of "Fire Cloud Evil God," which made him feel like he was covered in thorns.

I feel unwell all over.

Stephen Chow said it as a matter of course.

"What's wrong with your mental state? There's nothing wrong with it. It's okay for us actors to be a little crazy. If everyone is too normal, then we won't be able to get into character."

Yeah, as crazy as Stephen Chow, that's all you need to do, right?

At this moment, Yuanhua's lips twitched, unsure of what to say.

but.

This is also what Stephen Chow did in this time with "Kung Fu".

This is the first time he's admitted it.

A young man.

He is an actor.

Stephen Chow has always used himself as the benchmark for actors.

He holds himself to the standards of an actor.

At this moment, the film set was bustling with activity, and Yang Xiaolong was explaining the action plan to Stephen Chow.

"There are two options for kung fu: one is to use special effects, the other is a mix of both, with half special effects and half live-action fighting, and the third is pure martial arts."

Yang Xiaolong offered two solutions.

One type is a physical fight scene, like the one in Pig Cage Alley where the three masters battled the Axe Gang.

The second approach would likely be to use special effects to showcase the incredible skill level of the Fire Cloud Evil God.

"Half and half."

At this moment, Stephen Chow made a decision: "It's not that I don't believe in your kung fu, but we want to show the difference between a true master of internal strength and a master of external strength."

The difference probably lies in the amount of special effects used.

Judging from the expressiveness of the "Lion's Roar," it's on a completely different level from the previous visceral fight scenes.

From here.

The level of the "expert" should be "raised".

Of course, you can't just rely on special effects to fool the audience; they won't buy it.

There will definitely be some action scenes added to it.

And at this very moment.

Stephen Chow paused for a moment before speaking.

"Is our Mr. Li alright?"

Yang Xiaolong has always been in charge of the martial arts aspects; Stephen Chow hasn't been involved much.

Stephen Chow believes that letting professionals do what they are good at is what he needs to do.

At this moment, Yang Xiaolong spoke with unprecedented certainty.

"He'll be fine."

"Absolutely no problem."

Half special effects and half martial arts.

It was used to demonstrate the incredible skill of the Fire Cloud Evil God.

When it came time to film the action scenes, Yang Xiaolong, the martial arts director, stepped in, while Stephen Chow took a backseat and watched from the sidelines.

"Hey"

Li Yun's face still held a hint of expectation.

It's unclear whether they were hoping to kill the two masters.

I still hope to be killed by the two of them.

Either way, it's enough to send chills down your spine.

Enough to make one tremble

They all make you feel that what you're looking at is definitely not normal.

at this time.

Yang Xiaolong's chosen method is...

Shoot a long take of an action scene.

Then slice out the well-done parts and insert special effects shots in the middle.

That would allow us to form a battle between the Fire Cloud Evil God and the Landlord and Landlady.

"So you don't need to use 'Lion's Roar' during normal combat?"

"If you can really destroy the entire parking lot with a single lion's roar, I can make you do the same."

Yang Xiaolong even cracked a little joke.

It also seemed to be an attempt to ease the slightly tense atmosphere here.

Let's ease the tension.

at this time.

Yang Xiaolong glanced at Li Yun.

"Ready? Let's begin."

"3.2.1."

Poisonous toad.

Fire Cloud Evil God.

[Due to character compatibility, your Agility attribute has temporarily increased by 10 points (24 hours)]

After a period of improvement, your body may experience some degree of overexertion, and you may feel tired for a while. But that's okay; it won't harm your health.

As always, the system adheres to the law of conservation!

"It's okay, come on."

"I'm fine."

The martial arts of the Fire Cloud Evil God.

Just like him.

Danger.

fast.

It looks like a poisonous toad.

This also aligns with his style of kung fu.

"Speed ​​is the only way to win."

Li Yun could sense it.

His Kung Fu

He faced off against Yuan Hua and Yuan Qiu.

Originally, these two martial arts instructors from the Yuan family troupe were somewhat willing to back down.

But Li Yun continued to fight them at an even faster pace.

Fists, kicks, elbows, and claws—various techniques were displayed in the hands of Yuan Qiu and Yuan Hua.

But Li Yun at this moment.

Use your fists.

Use only your fists.

Use the toad's fist.

The toad's fast punches.

Just like his tongue, hunting down his prey.

Wow, that was fast.

What a fast punch!

At this moment.

Yuan Qiu and Yuan Hua were not ignorant of the principle that youth and strength are superior in boxing; they both understood it very well.

They had practiced martial arts since childhood and were once young and strong, having defeated countless old masters.

but.

They knew they hadn't surpassed their master in martial arts; they were still juniors. Even if they defeated the older generation, they were still disciples and still had to treat their elders with respect.

This is the respect that is due.

Now, they've grown old and become seasoned veterans, knowing that one day they would inevitably be defeated by the new generation, but they never expected that day to come in such a bizarre way.

But it has never been like this before.

What kind of kung fu style did he use?

Yang Xiaolong, what kind of crazy moves did you design for him?

And

He actually did it.

So agile.

How perceptive!

The various attacks from different angles really kept Yuan Qiu and Yuan Hua busy.

"Hehe, I can do Tai Chi too."

at this time.

The "Fire Cloud Evil God" in front of them suddenly changed his tactics.

Suddenly it turned into authentic Tai Chi.

It's even more authentic than Yuanhua's.

This is the Tai Chi skill that came from Song Qingshu.

However, the "Fire Cloud Evil God" soon returned to his original martial arts style.

What shocked Yang Xiaolong, who was standing next to him.

At this moment, Yang Xiaolong murmured.

"Mr. Stephen Chow, are you sure he only has a Level 3 martial arts certificate?"

"Yes, what he showed me at the time was a Level 3 martial arts certificate." Stephen Chow, watching from the side, didn't understand but thought it was very impressive.

From the perspective of a martial arts fanatic—a martial arts idiot.

It seems that in this real fight scene...

Both Yuan Qiu and Yuan Hua were suppressed by Li Yun, the Fire Cloud Evil God, primarily due to the difference in their martial arts styles.

It was extremely strong.

Furthermore, given that Li Yun is "young and vigorous," the feeling of the two masters being suppressed by Li Yun in this scene feels very real and authentic.

"And their physical fitness is just too good."

"I'm reminded of Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do," Stephen Chow said at this moment.

Yang Xiaolong also watched very carefully.

Li Yun's fist.

It's true that he wasn't as fast as Bruce Lee. Back then, Yang Xiaolong was one of the Four Little Dragons of Hong Kong and had dealt with Bruce Lee, so he knew about his punches. That speed was beyond what the naked eye could see in frames.

They truly used martial arts to demonstrate the might of Asia and the might of China.

Bruce Lee.

He was a true martial arts genius and even developed his own style, Jeet Kune Do.

But this does not mean that Li Yun's punches, as seen on camera, are inferior to Bruce Lee's.

After all, times have changed, and special effects technology is now more widespread.

With the support of modern technology and special effects, and the addition of various camera techniques, it is a truly remarkable film.

The effects that can be displayed.

It's definitely no less impressive than Bruce Lee's legendary feats in Asia. Back then, special effects technology wasn't advanced enough to achieve the effects we see today.

Li Yunsheng is a lucky man in this era.

This is not a question of whether or not one practices martial arts, nor is it a question of having a virginity training method.

This is talent.

His extraordinary physique gave him the talent to deliver fast and powerful punches.

Even if I'm envious.

You can't even envy that.

Just like Stephen Chow's comedic talent, there has been no comedic actor who can take over his mantle to this day. Some things are determined by talent.

You can't possibly envy that.

At this moment, Yang Xiaolong was a little dazed. If, if only, Li Yun's fist could one day catch up with the speed of Bruce Lee.

With the development of modern high-speed cameras and advancements in special effects, just imagine how powerful his kung fu will be!

Of course, that's all for the future. Now let's focus on the fight scene right now.

"He has quite a few techniques, it seems he's a child prodigy. He must have accumulated his skills from a young age and honed them over the years to achieve his current prowess," Yang Xiaolong thought, mentally replaying Li Yun's life story.

He is both talented and hardworking.

At this moment, Stephen Chow raised an eyebrow as he listened to Yang Xiaolong's words.

"You mean I struck gold with this third-level martial arts athlete I recruited this time?"

"It's not just finding a treasure, it's finding a super treasure!"

At this moment, Stephen Chow thought of the scene where he acted with the Fire Cloud Evil God in the "Mental Hospital" and nodded after a moment of contemplation.

"That's true, Da Bao."
