Chapter 14 The Demeanor of the Heavenly King
At 9:00 a.m., when Shao Yingxiong arrived downstairs of the building where he filmed his last scene, he looked at the left and right sides. After this look, he smiled. Both sides of the building were exactly the same as the movie shots he had seen on his computer. One side said "Bao Shop for Rent" and the other side was "Business and Commerce and Bank".
When he arrived at the rooftop, the staff were ready, and the two kings ignored each other and looked for their feelings in a corner of the rooftop. Everything seemed in order.
Shao Yingxiong didn't say anything, nor did he go to find Liang Chao and Wei Pan before leaving, but just waited quietly. At the same time, he held the line in his hand and glanced at him from time to time.
However, no matter what, he didn't expect that Liu Weiqiang, who had not communicated with him, came over at this time, and when he arrived beside him, he smiled very friendly.
"Mr. Shao, is it the last one?" Liu Weiqiang asked politely.
After the explanation from the Cantonese translation, Shao Yingxiong nodded and said, "Thank you Director Liu for your care."
"Actually, I have always seen Mr. Shao's efforts, including when Mr. Shao came, he directly filmed the scene with Andy Lau in Cantonese."
Liu Weiqiang was talking about yesterday. Last night, the crew filmed "Infernal Affairs" and first cracked the case of a fake passport gang. That is, Andy Lau pretended to be a lawyer to cheat the phone number from the criminal, and in the scene, he and Andy Lau had a few conversations in that scene.
Shao Yingxiong shook his head and denied his efforts, and then said, "It should be, I'm an actor."
In fact, that's what he thought. It's understandable that a mainland actor cannot communicate in Cantonese when filming in Xiangjiang, but you can't speak lines in Cantonese, so it's inexcusable. Can you continue to speak Chinese when you go to Hollywood? No? On the other hand, he looks down on those actors who come to mainland China to act and speak Cantonese. I remember that when I was watching TV series on the computer for a while, a Cantonese actor's lip styling and dubbing were obvious. This is not professional. If you don't believe it, please let him go to Hollywood to try it. Even if he doesn't know English, he can memorize the lines in a short period of time.
Liu Weiqiang smiled and did not continue the topic: "You performed very well in the crew, and I will tell Wang Zhonglei about this. If there is hope, I look forward to our cooperation again."
Shao Yingxiong was very quiet, neither playing pole nor shirkingly said: "I hope so."
He came to Xiangjiang to learn other people's shooting techniques and crew operation. Now these two goals have been achieved, and he has also fulfilled a wish to show his face on the big screen. As for whether he can continue to cooperate in the future, Shao Yingxiong is not very much looking forward to it. He doesn't hate the Xiangjiang crew, but after all, the mountains are high and the waters are far away, so it is impossible for others to appreciate you just by these scenes. He specially creates a movie for you, so let it go.
Liu Weiqiang left, and Mai Zhaohui came over to exchange contact information. Shao Yingxiong treated Mai Zhaohui with a completely different attitude, but the people helped to say good things at the Dragon Knight Charity Dinner. If these words were not mentioned, maybe Liu Weiqiang wouldn't even know who Shao Yingxiong was.
From Xiangjiang to leaving Xiangjiang soon, Shao Yingxiong has only talked with four people in this circle, Huang Qiusheng, Liang Chaowei, Liu Weiqiang, and Mai Zhaohui. In addition to chatting a little more with Huang Qiusheng, the others met one by one, let alone something difficult to part with.
A moment later, Andy Lau, Liang Chaowei and Shao Yingxiong were called to Liu Weiqiang, and Liu Weiqiang and Mai Zhaohui were talked about the play. One of them played Chen Yongren and the other played Liu Jianming, and they were talking about the play while gesturing. Even after explaining how to move and how to control the performance, they threw the three of them aside. At this moment, it was when this important scene really began.
When the crew made the last adjustment, Liu Weiqiang asked the three of them to finish the lyrics and then walked the show again. When the entire crew was fully ready, Liu Weiqiang shouted: "ACTION!!!"
At this moment, it was already 10:00 in the morning. It took an hour to see how Liu Weiqiang attached great importance to this scene.
On the rooftop, Andy Lau, who walked into the camera step by step, appeared in the sun. In the clear weather, the sun made him squint to see everything in front of him. However, this did not delay filming.
“OK!”
After Andy Lau appeared, he performed the action of looking for Liang Chaowei on the rooftop. The sight he turned around several times and explained to the audience what his first purpose was. At this moment, the shot ended.
Why ended?
Why not finish the whole scene with a long shot?
The reason is very simple, just because there is no place in the rooftop of this building to hide. If Liang Chao stood on the rooftop, Andy Lau would not have to look for it. In this way, the scene where Chen Yongren suddenly appeared behind Liu Jianming and pushed him with a gun would become a joke.
Shao Yingxiong saw that no one moved at the end of the first shot, and everyone was waiting for Liang Chaowei to enter the venue. At this moment, filming started again without any rest in the middle.
“ACTION!”
The photographer squatted behind Andy Lau, and Liang Chaowei pushed his back with a gun for the second...
“OK!”
Multi-directional photography methods that connect all the shots in the same scene with the actor's position without changing but are connected through various scattered lenses are not uncommon in the film industry today. This is also possible in the mainland. In just two comparisons, the overall effect and the photographer's shooting of a rhythmic scene will have a gap. Who made commercial films become a mature industry in Hong Kong long ago, and the mainland has not had much time to develop.
After another shot passed, the main scene will be filmed next.
Du Kefeng changed his position and began to shoot Liang Chaowei's body searching shot of Andy Lau. As for the later scenes of pulling out guns and handcuffs in the movie, they were all repaired. At least Shao Yingxiong did not find it in this shot.
When Liang Chaowei was wearing a black leather jacket and messy hair, he removed the bullet from Liu Jianming's pistol, Andy Lau turned around and showed a evil smile. The scene of laughing in a joyless atmosphere could immediately make people tell who is the good and who is the bad from the folds on his face.
"It's very skillful (very skillful)." Andy Lau said this in a way that he didn't turn his body but just turned his head.
Liang Chaowei said without any emotion: "I have been to the police academy."
Seeing Andy Lau's back handcuff Liang Chaowei, Andy Lau looked ahead indifferently and said, "You undercover agents are so interesting. You always meet on the rooftop."
"I am not like you, I can see light. (I am not like you, I can see light)"
When Shao Yingxiong saw this, he had a very strange feeling, that is, Liang Chaowei and Andy Lau did not work hard, and the expressions on his face were even more slight. But now they were wrapped in a very strange emotion at the same time, and they still made you unable to see restraint. It seemed that these two people were like this, and they should have been like this, but it would be completely wrong to change the expression form. This is much more difficult than the way to act with great force. At least not everyone can feel emotions with one look, but these two people can do it completely.
This is a feeling of drama, a natural emotion flowing without having to act like a drama.
This feeling is wonderful for the actors. They can't be played without a good opponent, they can't be played without a good script, and even the emotions at that time are not right.
When Shao Yingxiong saw this kind of performance, he realized that his acting skills were still far from being far away. Not to mention the art films and commercial films, Liang Chaowei, who can handle them even if he has always been known for his hard work, many fans will be placed by Liang Chaowei when it comes to acting skills. Andy Lau, who is behind Tony Leung, needs at least ten years of skill to reach the current level.
"Where are the things I want?" Liang Chaowei and Wei Ren's hair was suffocated by the wind on the rooftop. His face clearly showed no concern under the camera, but at this moment, Shao Yingxiong could see that he would not give up if he did not completely send Liu Jianming to the judicial authorities, because his eyes were too ruthless, and he didn't care about any direction except Andy Lau's eyes.
"You may not bring anything I want."
Andy Lau was a little cautious. The ease on his face disappeared, which was completely reflected in the subtle points. At least in Shao Yingxiong's opinion, Andy Lau's change in this scene did not change much. However, the atmosphere had changed completely.
Liang Chaowei smiled, with nothing in his smile, which was almost the same as hearing a joke: "What is that now? Come up and bask in the sun?"
After breathing a little, Andy Lau once again whispered in a different tone and asked for help, "Give me a chance."
"How to give a chance?"
Liang Chaowei's words were not a question. His eyes were always staring at Andy Lau, and he had no need to say the attitude of having to nail him to death; this sentence was like a play - joke, a game before cats and mice.
"I had no choice before, I want to be a good person now." Andy Lau still had a glimmer of hope.
In the close-up, Liang Chaowei nodded slightly and said, "Okay, tell the judge, see if he lets you be a good person."
"That's to let me die."
Liang Chaowei said mockingly: "I'm sorry. I'm a policeman."
"Who knows?" The line was spoken immediately pulled back the balance that had been completely tilted to Liang Chaowei. The two superstars used a performance without too many expressions to move every person filming this scene at all times. Who doesn't know that Liang Chaowei's biggest wish is to restore his identity besides catching black police, but this sentence can destroy everything Chen Yongren.
These lines are classic in Shao Yingxiong's opinion. In the end, almost every line can be used as a conclusion. As long as any sentence is erased from the end, the ending will change.
Liang Chaowei raised his gun a little fiercely in an instant. Shao Yingxiong swore that if he hadn't watched this movie, he really didn't know what the ending would be, because since the moment the two superstars stepped onto the rooftop, the balance had been swinging left and right for a long time, and it was completely suspense that who would win in the end.
"Card!"
"Shao Yingxiong, enter the venue."
That's right, the camera has been shot again, because this scene cannot be a long shot.
Shao Yingxiong walked out of the monitor and climbed all the way to the rooftop. When the director's "ACTION" sounded again, he rushed out without hesitation.
"Don't move, please!!!!"
Shao Yingxiong held up the gun, and in front of him was the scene where Liang Chaowei changed his position and pointed the gun at Andy Lau and walked around behind him.
"Put down the gun and put Liu SIR."
Shao Yingxiong did not show Lin Jiadong's hesitation in the original movie, and he stood on the rooftop calmly.
Since then there was a big scene in the scene. B confessed that he had helped Liu Jianming destroy the evidence. At this time, Big B shouldn't have hesitated. He had made up his mind to continue to follow Liu Jianming. Why did there still flash in his eyes? How could the hand holding the gun still shake?
"Your head is Han Chen's undercover." Liang Chaowei broke the news directly at the unidentified Shao Yingxiong, which proved that he could not let Liu Jianming go, and it was impossible for Huang SIR to die: "The evidence is in my hands, so I will tell you if I have anything to do."
Shao Yingxiong looked at the other party for a long time, finally gritted his teeth and said, "Put down the gun, put down the gun immediately!"
He showed his confined teeth by raising his lips and speaking. It was a ruthlessness, and he had already made up his mind to kill Chen Yongren!
Liang Chaowei was still explaining: "I called the police."
"Why should I believe you!" Shao Yingxiong did not show any disbelief at all, but was keeping aim at Chen Yongren's direction in the sight of the sight. In this second, he believed that any audience could see what he was going to do from the connected camera.
"You don't have to believe me." Liang Chaowei grabbed Andy Lau with one hand and pointed the gun in Andy Lau's neck with the other. The two of them immediately moved forward.
Shao Yingxiong did not retreat, and he did not retreat even a single step.
Liu Weiqiang did not expect Shao Yingxiong to be so expressive. Although he and the two superstars had a gap at a glance from their acting skills, and they could not even use the tone and micro-expression to show the character's heart, this understanding of the plot that connects the past and the future has a unique charm. From now on, Liu Weiqiang has more or less a slight affection for Shao Yingxiong, very simple, and likes the performance method. However, this is Shao Yingxiong's last scene, and perhaps the fate is finally here.
"OK!!!"
When Liu Weiqiang shouted out the finale of this shot, Shao Yingxiong had completely finished all his tasks in Xiangjiang. However, no one said goodbye to him, and everyone hurried over from him to prepare for the next shot. Only Liang Chaowei looked at him with a smile.
That's right, Huang Qiusheng, who can say a few words, is not here, Liang Chaowei is not good at speaking, he and Andy Lau have not yet had a friendship, Mai Zhaohui and Liu Weiqiang have to film a scene, let's do it, let's do it...
Chapter completed!
