Chapter 133 An Unprecedented Movie
After creating the miracle of "Chain Saw", to be precise, it has reproduced this miracle.
Wu Changyun's ideas are still endless. Before that, there were no prison movies in Hong Kong movies, but the actual prison movies in 21 have been calm after the storm.
The most famous of them is "The Shawshank Redemption"
This name absolutely cannot be used anymore. Wu Changyun does not have Xiao Shengke under his command, only himself and Zhou Runfa.
Wu Changyun tried to place the image of Zhou Runfa on the protagonist of this play, which is obviously very inappropriate, but the brother image of Zhou Runfa and Zhang Guorong in "The True Colors of Heroes" is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Perhaps, with this selling point, Wu Changyun can do something.
Many viewers wrote to Wu Changyun, hoping to see Zhou Runfa and Zhang Guorong co-starring again. This time is an excellent opportunity.
Wu Changyun was just a little worried about whether Zhang Guorong could support this role.
As for Chow Yun-fat, who replaced the original role of Morgan Freeman, his relationship with Zhang Guorong is both mentor and friend. The two met again after escaping from prison, which sounds really good.
For this reason, Wu Changyun needs to change some scripts to achieve his goal.
Here, Chen Gangsheng is filming Drunken Fist under Yuan Heping. Since he came under Yuan Heping, many of Chen Gangsheng's ideas can be realized.
Not having a box office is not a problem of one person. Chen Gangsheng has also been poisoning the box office for several years. In addition to the guilt towards others, there are also heart problems accumulated over the years.
No one knows whether the next film will be a hit, but at least now he is on the rise.
There are a lot of special effects shots and various difficult exercises in the shooting of Drunken Master. Chen Gangsheng had to do these by himself.
The filming progressed very quickly. If Chen Gangsheng hadn't stopped, he would have never had time to prepare.
Yuan Heping looked at the tree trunk and asked Chen Gangsheng, "Are you okay?"
"Row."
Chen Gangsheng's consistent principle is that as long as you ask, you will be fine.
Then Chen Gangsheng was tied to the tree trunk, holding two wine glasses in his hands. This is indeed a real shot.Chen Gangsheng only felt that the blood began to flow down with a little effort, and his head felt swollen.
Lifting up just once seemed to use up all the strength.
At this time, I was hanging upside down from the tree and doing sit-ups, holding two cups in my hands. Since they were tied with ropes, I could hardly borrow any strength from my legs.
For the first time, the water in the cup spilled out.
Helpless, I can only do it a second time. Fortunately, this scene requires the actors to work very hard, otherwise this scene would not be able to be filmed.
After shooting for the third time in a row, Chen Gangsheng cheered himself up in his heart, this time must pass.
This time was harder than the last time, his abdominal muscles were about to tear while dragging him down, and he passed both sides hard and finally passed.
The next scene is even more uncomfortable. A few sticks of incense are lit under the push-ups. What I want is the visual sense of sweating, and then the incense sticks into the flesh.
Everyone knows that this scene cannot be faked, or a stuntman should be hired to let the stand-in be poked.
It won't do anything if you poke it, it will only hurt for a while, but there will probably be no scars later.
Chen Gangsheng took a look at the censer and played the role of Yuan Xiaotian, the death of his master. Yuan Xiaotian's suggestion was to put some things under the clothes through the clothes, so that it would not hurt too much if it was poked.
Chen Gangsheng also knew that the effect of the meat would be better, and everyone knew it was fake through the clothes.
"Okay, let's do it this way, what we pay attention to is truth."
Chen Gangsheng took off his shirt to reveal all his tendons. In order to pursue the effect, the props team had to sprinkle some water on Chen Gangsheng's body. Yuan Xiaotian sat on Chen Gangsheng's waist to keep his feet off the ground.
In fact, Yuan Xiaotian was also a little worried, for fear that the pressure would crush Chen Gangsheng all the time. It didn't hurt to poke it once, but if it was poked straight down, it would still leave a scar.
"It's okay, just come."
Chen Gangsheng held his breath, and immediately let go of his strength as soon as he was poked by the incense stick, his center of gravity was instantly unstable, and he fell to one side.
Yuan Xiaotian also had sharp eyesight and quick hands, jumping off Chen Gangsheng directly.
"What's wrong? Are you okay?"
"it's okay no problem."
Chen Gangsheng rubbed his abdomen and said hastily.
The last shot was indeed an overexertion of energy, and now even if I had the intention, I couldn't do it anymore.
"Director Yuan, take a break for 10 minutes." Chen Gangsheng proposed to take a break for the first time today.
Yuan Heping had also been waiting for this sentence, and he was also afraid that Chen Gangsheng would not be able to bear it.
For today's young actors, it is more attractive to make a lot of money than to suffer a lot from making movies.
Basically, I didn't complain about anything on the set. A movie can make money that others can't make in a lifetime.
On the other hand, in order to prepare a prison film, Wu Changyun had to contact Mo Yuxuan for help, and tried his best to provide a shooting location without disturbing the normal work of the prison.
"Are you crazy? Filming in the prison, what if something happens?" Mo Yuxuan refused decisively.
"I'm not talking about filming in prison at all. The problem now is that we can't rent this kind of venue." Wu Changyun really didn't want to ask this guy, and he always felt like he was going through the back door of the government.
Wu Changyun helped Mo Yuxuan several times, and it was not easy for Mo Yuxuan to refuse this favor directly.
"Then let me contact you, can I give you a building guide?"
"Architectural guidance?"
Wu Changyun thought about it carefully. If the site was built by himself, it would definitely cost a lot of money, and the amount would definitely be astronomical.
"That might be a little difficult."
"No way, you will still have no money at the top of the box office. If not, you can rent it out after you build it."
Mo Yuxuan doesn't watch movies very much, but he pays attention to Wu Changyun's situation.
"Build it and then rent it out?"
Wu Changyun thought about this problem seriously, yes, this is a good way.
When Chen Gangsheng filmed "Drunken Master", Wu Changyun borrowed Huang Zhengli out and made a fortune from it. He can not only rent actors, but also rent venues.
Although the investment is a bit large, it is also a part of the film system.
"Okay, then it's settled."
This money really cannot be saved. After Wu Changyun made up his mind, he chose a former forest farm site in the relatively remote New Territories.
Mo Yuxuan was quite reliable, and he really invited one of the prison's designers, who was also a public official.
The structure of the prison is not a secret. It's not like in the movie, everyone goes in and wants to escape or something.
It is said to be a claw pick, and it is not easy to dig out from the prison with a shovel.
Most of the people in the prison are rotten people. Those who really have this kind of determination and perseverance will not succeed in a short while.
With the help of the designer, Wu Changyun started working on a project that cost nearly one million yuan. The film has not yet started shooting, but the venue is about to burn hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.
If Wu Changyun hadn't approached Mo Yuxuan, he would actually only need to pay the prison some money, but now it's a slap in the face.
