Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon

Chapter 135: Studio accident

  Clearwater Bay Shaw Studios, various crews are filming, in order to fight the Golden Harvest Cinemas and Universal Cinemas, Shaw Films has also opened several plays.

   Although the quality of the films produced by Shaw Films cannot be guaranteed, the number is very optimistic. After all, there are sufficient staff.

   In Hong Kong, movies produced by Shaw Films are usually released for about half a month, while movies produced by Jiahe usually last for about 20 days.

   Because Shaw Films has its own studio, Shaw's films are rarely taken outside, which can minimize costs.

   The director of "Shaolin and Wudang" is Zhang Che. In Shaw Brothers, Zhang Che's status is comparable to that of Wang Tianlin.

   Under external pressure this time, Shaw asked Zhang Che to go out. One can imagine how much pressure he received.

   "Big Brother, the Jin family brothers and sisters are dead, Tong Qianjin is caught alive, I will dig him out, you can look at him in the spirit of heaven"

   "Brother Li, Second Ring."

   "Brother Wei is here!"

   "Who is this time?"

   "Tong Qianjin, I heard from Erhuan that the master asked you to contact Uncle Baimei, how about it?"

  ......

   This is a group scene. Zhang Che has a habit of filming. He shoots all the big scenes first, and then shoots a separate small scene.

   Zhang Che looked at the performance of everyone in the camera, smiled satisfied,

  According to this progress, it is possible to catch up with the screening time arranged by Yihua above.

   Suddenly a group of people entered the camera, shouting "Don't shoot, don't shoot".

   Zhang Che was a little annoyed, because of these people, this clip could not be used, and the props were also damaged by these people. You must know how difficult it is to apply for funding from Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua.

   This has a conviction, but Zhang Che has a deep understanding.

   In 1971, when Shaw Brothers was filming "Feng Feifei", there was a scene of a martial artist eating raw fried steamed buns in the film. The actor signed a purchase order and asked his staff to find Shao Yifu to approve it, stating that "receive 20 Hong Kong dollars to buy 100 raw fried steamed buns."

   Boss Shao doesn’t look right, and the raw fried steamed buns are only sold for a dime in the cafeteria. Why is it costing twenty yuan? So two words were approved: "No!"

   As a result, the actors and martial artists all put on their makeup, but they couldn't wait for the steamed buns, and the filming was unsuccessful. However, Shaw still had to be paid, and Shaw's cabbage lost more than 10,000 Hong Kong dollars.

   It was later found out that the steamed bun master in the cafeteria asked for leave that day, and no steamed buns were sold.

   Shao Yifu threw away more than 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, heartbroken, and summoned the dramatist to scold him: "You have to explain the situation. I am willing to vote for more than one million dollars in a film. How can I be stingy with the 20 Hong Kong dollars."

   And when Shao Yifu scolded the crew, Zhang Che happened to be in Shao Yifu’s office and watched the whole process, and the drama was scolded for resigning and not doing it. Although the time has passed for a long time, Zhang Che still remembers the whole thing.

Another time happened with Zhang Che’s own crew. When Zhang Che was directing "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he was shooting outside, hiring a martial artist as an extra. Boss Shao feared that the martial artist would be empty and asked a female staff member to change. A wad of Hong Kong dollars was sent to the scene to send money, and the famous paintings had to be pledged so that the martial artist could receive the money.

   Originally filming this kind of location was paid for a total amount. The martial artist thought that his personality had been insulted and announced a strike.

   These piles are all things that Zhang Che has encountered, but there are still things that Zhang Che hasn't encountered, and of course there are many hearsays that Zhang Che hasn't encountered.

   If only these people broke into the camera, this clip would be a big deal, but it would be nice to remake it, but this group of people also broke the props on the scene.

   "Which crew are you performing in a group, why are you here?" Zhang Che asked, and Zhang Che thought it was a group performance.

  During the British rule, it was difficult to distinguish between group performers and community members. Many people in Hong Kong were more or less of a community nature, so Zhang Che didn't care too much when he looked at these bearish people.

   At this time, Deng Zeyuan, the dramatist of "Shaolin and Wudang", ran to Zhang Che and said to Zhang Che: "Director, that person is Xin'an's red stick."

   Deng Zeyuan pointed to one of the bearded people and motioned to Zhang Che.

   Zhang Che heard the story of Deng Zeyuan, the dramatist, and was a little strange. What the Xin'an people did when they came to the set. If it was for location shooting, the crew would pay all the tea money that the crew should give, but what did the set mean?

   Zhang Che is the biggest man in the crew of "Shaolin and Wudang"~www.wuxiaspot.com~, so I can only get out of the car when encountering this kind of thing.

   Zhang Che walked to the Xin'an red stick and said, "What is the name of this big brother?"

   "It's good to say, my dear Chen Yaoxing, everyone calls me Brother Xing." Xin'an's red stick said.

   "Brother Star, do you have any advice for our crew today?" Zhang Che said.

   "The director, the tea money, if you don't have the tea money, who let you play." Chen Yaoxing said.

   Zhang Che was shocked and angry, and said quickly: "Brother Xing, we are shooting on the set, so this is not needed."

  According to the customs of the Hong Kong film industry, filming on location requires filial piety to the community, but not at all on the set.

   Many of Shaw's films were shot on the set. Before shooting on the set, this has never happened. How can it happen now.

   "There was no before, it doesn't mean there is no now. From now on, every movie will be needed." Chen Yaoxing said.

   When Zhang Che heard Chen Yaoxing's words, he knew it was nothing to look for, and he couldn't solve it. He had to ask Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua to come forward, so he fought for a long time to the crew next to him, and the crew ran towards the radio station building.

   And Chen Yaoxing was happy that this happened. Before Chen Yaoxing came, the big brother Xiang Yan in Chen Yaoxing's eyes specially summoned him and arranged for him to come out this time, with his mouth being the main thing, and his hands being the auxiliary.

   Xiang Yan also knew about Shao Yifu’s abilities. He didn't want to make a fuss too much, and didn't want to fall to Li Zhiwen completely, so he adopted this method.

   In Xiang Yan's view, Li Zhiwen wanted nothing more than to make a comeback, just to save face.

   Chen Yaoxing is making such a fuss, I think Shao Yifu is going to call himself, and then I will mention the reason for it with Shao Yifu, and I think Shao Yifu will make the right choice.
