Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Huairou Film and Television City, the crew of "Liancheng Jue".

After booting, the shooting was relatively smooth.

With Xiang Nan in charge, everyone was very attentive and did not dare to play tricks.

Everyone was united, and the shooting went smoothly.

However, it is not completely without problems.

The biggest problem is still lack of experience.

How to set up the scenery, how to shoot the photography, how to use the lighting, how to act the actors, how to do the action... In Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television dramas, this has already been a certain paradigm.

For example, in Huang Rihua's version of "The Eight Parts of the Dragon", when heroes battle Shaolin Temple, Qiao Feng's appearance is a very typical way for heroes to appear on the stage.

At the critical juncture, Chief Qiao flew in the air, a qigong wave exploded, standing proudly on the spot, and then all the supporting characters looked sideways, shouting at Chief Qiao with all their tricks... What a sight.

However, there is a lack of relevant experience in the mainland, and one has to gradually explore in order to make a good film.

In order to gain experience quickly, Xiang Nan specially invited Wuzhi Yuanbin from Xiangjiang.

He is one of the Seven Little Fortunes, and he has been a martial arts instructor for films such as "New Dragon Inn", "Swordsman: The Undefeated in the East", "The Deer and Ding Tale", "God of Gamblers 2", "Once Upon a Time: The Lion King", etc. Have a certain strength.

Moreover, what he is good at is the style of martial arts, which is more realistic. Although "Liancheng Jue" has the miraculous inner strength of Shenzhaojing that can bring people back to life, it is still a low-level martial arts world in essence. Compared with whether the internal strength is profound or not, it pays more attention to the competition of moves, so it is more appropriate to invite Yuan Bin to direct.

...

At the beginning of filming the TV series, the script originally prepared a martial arts replacement for Xiang Nan.

Wan Zhenshan still had some martial arts scenes, and they were afraid that Xiang Nan would not be able to handle it.

But I didn't expect Xiang Nan to fight in person, and he played well, which surprised Yuan Bin and Wu Yue, let alone the others.

"Master Cheng, have you practiced kung fu before?" Wu Yue asked curiously.

"When I was young, I learned a little from the uncle next door." Xiang Nan nodded and said.

"You're not a bit." Wu Yue waved his hand and smiled.

Others can't tell that he is a professional martial arts practitioner. He once won the national martial arts championship. It can be seen that Xiang Nan is a good kungfu. When shooting martial arts action, every move is just right. If it weren't for a good kung fu, it would never be so perfect.

Just like Chen Hao, Jiang Qinqin, Ni Dahong and others, they have never learned martial arts before, but they just studied for two months before shooting. Therefore, it is all about embroidering fists and legs, and when filming scenes, I often make mistakes.

Xiang Nan smiled slightly, his kung fu is indeed amazing.

Although Wu Yue is a national martial arts champion, he practiced mostly moves, which are different from real fights. And Xiang Nan inherited Ip Man's Wing Chun, which can really kill people.

But it's not worth showing off. Now that the world is peaceful, he doesn't need to kill people.

Wu Yue saw that Xiang Nan was obviously good at kung fu, but he didn't show off his skills, and he couldn't help being very infected, and lost a lot of frivolity.

As for Xiang Nan's fight scenes, he played in person, without a substitute.

This spirit of sacrifice also infected the crew. All the actors try their best to perform in person, unless the movements are too difficult, and the doubles are not used until they are finished.

In this way, it is naturally very helpful to improve the quality of the series.

Unlike some dramas, actors have to stand in for every scene they shoot. Literary plays have literary substitutes, martial arts have martial arts substitutes, lore plays have naked substitutes, and kiss plays have kiss substitutes. Even rolling on the ground and falling somersaults are all done by doubles.

With so many stand-ins for filming, the quality of the episodes will definitely not be good.

Because acting is a two-way communication process, although the play is fake, the feelings are sincere. No matter how good an actor is, he still needs the cooperation and stimulation of his opponents to show his ideal acting skills.

If a stand-in is used for filming, the performance of the opponent will definitely be limited, which will affect the quality of the episode.

Moreover, when using a stand-in, you can only use a long-range lens, and you cannot shoot the front face, which will also have a certain impact on the shooting.

Driven by Xiang Nan, the crew of "Lianchengjue" participated in the battle in person, which is naturally good for improving the quality of the series.

...

During the filming of "Liancheng Jue", many people from other crews also came to visit the set.

For one thing, Kylin Films is a giant in the mainland entertainment industry, and is very good at movies and TV series, and its reputation is quite high. Such a company, whoever wants to make a name for themselves in the mainland entertainment industry, would not want to build a personal network;

Second, Xiang Nan is the richest Chinese man, and he is also among the best in the list of the world's richest people. No one wants to get to know such a big man. In case of fate, just give me some advice, and it will be enough to benefit you for a lifetime.

For example, Feng Xiaogang was just an art assistant back then. Since following Xiang Nan, he has been on the rise all the way, and now he is the second brother who is well-known in the mainland film industry, only slightly inferior to Zhang Yimou.

For everyone's class visit, Xiang Nan didn't put on airs. If he had time, he was willing to chat, take pictures, and sign autographs.

Because those who dare to visit the class are mostly famous in the circle. For example, Su Youpeng, Lin Zhiying, Jiao Enjun, Lu Liangwei, etc. may have opportunities for cooperation in the future, and it is not worth rejecting people thousands of miles away.

As for those who have no name or surname, they dare not come to harass Xiang Nan. Even if they dared, the crew would not let it go.

Of course, compared to these male actors, Xiang Nan prefers to communicate with those female stars.

For example, the actress Xiao Qiang in "Little Li Feidao". Xiao Qiang is known as the number one beauty in Taiwan. After seeing the real person, Xiang Nan didn't think she was as amazing as the legend. On the contrary, Chen Hao and Jiang Qinqin are much prettier than her.

However, Xiao Qiang is more seductive and seductive, he is crazy and flirtatious, and he is especially good at making people happy. The so-called "Jie Yu Hua" is nothing more than that, so Xiang Nan thinks it is worth the money.

There is also Weng Hong, the actress in "Dharma", and Chen Derong, the heroine of "Peerless Two Pride". Xiang Nan liked their film and television dramas very much before.

...

In August, after "Liancheng Jue" finished filming at the Feiteng film and television base, it was time to go to the snow mountain to shoot the location. Because there is no role for Xiang Nan, he will not go.

Moreover, the filming of this drama took three months, and the director Wang Wenjie already has some experience, so there is no need for him to stare at it all the time.

In addition to "Liancheng Jue", in 1999, Kylin Films also invested in Feng Xiaogang's "A Sigh". This script is adapted from Wang Yi's novel "Worried".

Feng Xiaogang prepared to make this movie two years ago. But in 1997, Wang Yi was boycotted by public opinion, and the novels, scripts, and essays he wrote could not be used, which brought the preparation of "A Sigh" to a standstill.

Now that two years have passed, I dare not say that the situation has calmed down, at least the resistance is not so strong. So Feng Xiaogang took the time to shoot "A Sigh".

Although Feng Xiaogang has always shown himself to be a common man, most of his films are commercial films. But in essence, he still has artistic pursuits.

In real life, he has filmed "Tangshan Earthquake", "Assembly", "Youth", "Mobile Phone", "Night Banquet", "I'm Not Pan Jinlian", "1942", "Only Yun Knows" etc., are all tragic, literary films.

In comparison, his comedies are actually only five. Xiang Nan felt that he had misjudged Feng Xiaogang before.
