Perfect Life

Vol 5 Chapter 40: Chinese Kung Fu and Ladies

On the outskirts of Xiamen, the ancient harbor film and television city, the filming site of "Once Upon a Time".

"All preparations! Start!"

As soon as the board was down, people in the entire street suddenly started to move in groups.

In the section of the street where the scene was filmed, there were more than 20 people on both sides, and suddenly they rushed together, punching and kicking and fighting - Margaery Tyrell subconsciously covered her mouth.

For those who are used to watching the film set, in fact, there is no essential difference between China and Hollywood, and it is hard to say that there will be any surprises, but the scene in front of me is extraordinarily special.

Margaery Tyrell has also participated in and seen a lot of Hollywood street fights and shooting scenes, but it is clear that the shooting scene she is seeing now has a lot to do with her Hollywood crew. What I saw was absolutely different!

At the same time, six cameras were burying and shooting, and at the same time, twenty or thirty people entered the venue and fought fiercely, and... they seemed to be fighting, and this shot actually took more than ten seconds!

This is... Chinese Kung Fu?

Margery couldn't help but said "Wow" in her heart.

Again, if it was in another time and space, in fact, Hollywood around 2ooo had already introduced a number of Hong Kong film talents when Hong Kong films were declining, and thus quickly mastered the decades of accumulation of Hong Kong filmmakers. That kind of martial arts action design ability, but in the current time and space, not only has there been no Hong Kong movies, even Bruce Lee has not appeared, and the fights that appear in the blockbusters they are fighting to sweep the world are compared to other time and space. It is inferior to more than one rank!

At least in terms of the aesthetics of martial arts design, the current Hollywood movies and Hollywood filmmakers are definitely old hats in front of the ten-second martial arts scene just shot!

If you consider the bonus effect of the mysterious Chinese Kung Fu... Well, there is no doubt that at this moment, Margaery Tyrell was directly stunned by the battle for more than ten seconds!

What could she see in the current Hollywood crew at the time? It's two American tough guys with big arms and round waists, where you punch and I punch each other, clap clap clap, you're covered in blood, and I'm not much better!

And if it's a street fight with a large number of people like this... Actually, think back, even in another time and space, before about 1995, or even 2ooo years ago, in Hollywood's individual hero films and street fight scenes, how did they ever appear? Any decent scuffles of a dozen or dozens of people?

Well, Americans also love hero films, and especially love hero films, but without the blessing of Chinese-style action design, let’s not talk about the beauty and impact of shooting street fights on the scale of 20 or 30 people. They even got the advanced street shootout design from Hong Kong films, especially after being taught a few films by John Woo, and this is the ultimate achievement!

Of course, without the unique exhibition environment of Hong Kong films, the current domestic films are no better than Hollywood in this respect!

So here, what Margaery Tyrell sees is actually the martial arts action design of this era far away! Well, oriental kung fu-style martial arts action design!

"Crack!"

Li Qian held the loudspeaker in his hand, sat on the seat without getting up, just shouted: "It was good just now, I didn't wear it, it's over! The next shot, the second camera, pay attention to move back more than one and a half meters. !"

As soon as he finished the call, he handed the loudspeaker to Feng Bicheng beside him. At this time, Guo Ziming over there had re-entered the venue, with a few simple instructions and requirements, and then he exited the scope of the camera.

Feng Bicheng held the loudspeaker, "All attention, No. 1, No. 4, No. 5, pay attention, start!"

Snapped!

Margery's eyes widened, seeing that the people in the field suddenly started to move together again, and where the three cameras were aimed at, in the scuffle of the crowd, a short man in a robe suddenly stepped forward. , as soon as he shot, a very beautiful leg swept across, but a very fat man opposite him suddenly bowed in place and used his arm to carry this leg, and then he looked very huge. And the bloated body showed great flexibility. After resisting the opponent's attack, he flew forward and took a big step forward, punching, and the opponent landed, followed by a parry...

"Ka! Pork Rong, your expression is too fierce! Forgot what I told you? Even when you should be fierce, you should show contempt and disdain, but don't be really fierce... Come!"

"ready, go!"

So, the shot just now was played again.

This time, Li Qian nodded, "Crack! It's over!"

...

It’s just that this street melee is expected to take about four and a half to five days to shoot, because there are too many shots, and even so, it is because many shots are taken out and taken back separately—those shots are not needed. So many groups were present.

There are many characters, many scenes, large scenes, difficult scheduling, and another big problem is that it is absolutely impossible to shoot long shots in this fight, and many shots need to be picked out bit by bit!

A lot of the footage is three and five seconds long!

As the saying goes in the industry, it is said that this job is a bit "broken" and needs to be saved bit by bit (bsp; Therefore, after shooting one shot after another, more than an hour has passed, the venue is still the same venue, and the people are still those people, In fact, it didn't move forward much.

And this progress has already made Li Qian quite satisfied!

Margaery Tyrell didn't understand either. She just stood outside the arena, about a dozen paces away from Li Qian's director's chair. , surprised.

And Li Qian's attention is too concentrated, it seems that his whole mind is only on the set, only in the places where the cameras are aimed and focused, so that even in the middle, he got up several times and went over to guide him personally. The actor's performance, but when he turned around and walked back, he didn't notice Margery, who stood out from the crowd and was golden and blue-eyed.

Of course, others must have noticed.

It wasn't until more than an hour later, when the crew took a ten-minute break, that Feng Bicheng reminded Li Qian in a low voice - he bent down and said a few words in Li Qian's ear, Li Qian was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned around and went behind him. Looking at it, he immediately stood up with a smile on his face and strode over.

Li Qian stretched out his hand habitually, but Margaery Tyrell had already opened her arms.

So, in a large circle of people watching, the two hugged.

"Why don't you take a break first?" Li Qian said.

"I'm coming over to see what you look like directing a movie, because I'm not sure if I've been tricked into it!" Margaery joked.

Li Qian laughed and asked, "How long have you been watching?"

But immediately, Margery smiled and said, "An hour? Maybe! But, Qian, you look so handsome as a director!"

Li Qian smiled again, chatted for a while, and then waved to her, and introduced several key personnel to her one by one.

Zhao He and Feng Bicheng are two assistant directors, the male and female protagonists Zhou Baoshan and Lu Lingxi, especially Lu Lingxi, who can play with her, and... the fat man who knows Chinese kung fu who she is very interested in.

You must know that although this time and space lacks Bruce Lee's dissemination and popular science, there are legends about "Chinese Kung Fu" in Western society, but it will not weaken much because of this!

Because for the Western world, the entire Eastern society, because it is completely independent from the Western system, and the degree of communication and communication between the two sides has been limited over the years, so it has always been extremely mysterious and attracting attention - Liao Liao The popularity in Europe and the United States is not without her being a "crooked nut"!

Some people often ridicule the Chinese people for believing that "foreign monks can recite sutras", but as long as you have solid things in your hand and extraordinary skills, even in European and American society, it is still "foreign monks can recite sutras"!

At this time, after being called over by Li Qian, the fat man Zhong Yuanfu was not at all stage frightened. He shook hands with Margery. When the other party was curious and asked him to perform some work, UU reading www.uukanshu.com even really showed off. A set of punches made Margery tut tut in amazement, and her hands turned red when she applauded.

"Wow, Chinese Kung Fu, cool!"

Sun Yuting added with a smile, "Chinese fat kung fu!" Everyone laughed, Zhong Yuanfu also laughed, but Margery couldn't understand it. Looking at Li Qian, Li Qian had to explain it to her. However, it was useless. , this joke is completely out of Margaery's point of laughter.

Although it would surprise her to see a fat man with such a bloated body being so flexible, but in her logic, the term "fat kung fu", even if it is hard to translate, is not funny.

After meeting, everyone else walked away consciously, and only Li Qian was left to chat with Margery as they walked.

After chatting for a while, Margery said: "Qian, you look very handsome as a director! Wow, and... it's beautiful here, I believe the movie you're making will be especially beautiful! I can't bear it now. I want to know what kind of role I'm going to play! Will I have a scene like that too?"

While speaking, she imitated Zhong Yuanfu's posture and gestured twice.

Li Qian smiled and waved his hand, "No, no, you are playing the heroine's friend. The heroine, as a Chinese, went to study in the Western world at that time, and you, the friend she met there, came here later. In China, of course, um, the scene where you appear in this movie is... very little!"

Having said that, he thought for a while and said, "It will take about three or four days to finish filming."

"Oh...no?"

Margaery Tyrell looked disappointed.

Li Qian nodded with a smile, "Yes, a lady...a hundred years ago."

Margery was obviously very dissatisfied, and couldn't help rolling her eyes, "My God! It's... a lady again!"
