Chapter 100 Shao Heroes, the Crazy Progress
"Wrong, pay attention to the use of eyebrows!" Yuan Xinyi shouted wildly downstairs of the crew's hotel. His loud voice could almost wake up people on the entire floor: "Boss Shao, people should start by distinguishing the meaning expressed by their eyes from the eyebrows. If you frown hard, you will find that your nostrils will expand. At that time, even if you don't stare at me, you will be angry. There are many similar expressions. These expressions can only make your moves look more beautiful when added to the movements!"
"No, Boss Shao, you can watch your hands when you make a move. Just look at your hands means that you are not very skilled. So what master do you play? Look at the part you want to hit the opponent..."
"Boss Shao, if you want to show your moves when you are somersaulting, you have to show your poss. If you want to show your truth, especially after being beaten in a fight, you have to take a few steps back in a mess, whether it is clear?"
During the days of special training with Yuan Xinyi, Shao Yingxiong learned a lot of different action scenes in action movies, but the action scenes and martial arts are completely different. Korean action is mostly made by large-scale actions to show the sense of power. For example, martial arts blockbusters such as "Hero" and "Ten-Faced Ambush" are designed to show beauty and gorgeousness. Of course, there is also one of them, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", but the fighting style of "Embroidered Spring Sword" is realistic, which is Wei Jiahui's requirement for the entire crew. In order to meet this requirement, Yuan Heping even led the Yuan family to visit several martial arts sects in person...
This sounds very familiar. When Shao Yingxiong was resting, he even recalled the promotional video before the filming of "The Grandmaster". The promotional video was recorded by Wang Jiawei, who led the martial arts instructor Yuan Heping to visit various martial arts sects. They even visited all famous artists in the mainland, Xiangjiang, and Baodao.
Fortunately, Shao Yingxiong followed Wei Jiahui's advice and hired Yuan Heping, which was a bit stinky but extremely serious. If it weren't for him, perhaps "The Embroidered Spring Sword" would have the same flaws as what Shao Yingxiong had seen before.
For Shao Yingxiong, the "Embroidered Chunjian" he had watched was not perfect. Even the critics' evaluation of "Embroidered Chunjian" was that "is far away from perfection, but it is indeed sincere." Shao Yingxiong, who was not familiar with action films, did not understand the imperfection of this drama at that time. Only after this period of time did he devote himself to studying the performance methods of action films with Yuan Xinyi that he had some clues.
The original film of "Embroidered Spring Sword" performed very well in small scenes. In big scenes, such as the scene where the Yan family fought to the death, it was obviously not satisfactory. A few people came out to kill, which should be a very representative pleasure point in the whole film. However, during the fight, Lu Jianxing's almost begging for mercy made the people watching the movie feel depressed. First, he was cheated by the Jinyiwei Baihu, and then he couldn't get hard, even if he cut off Mr. Yan's hand. The three people killed him. The pleasure point was not revealed; there was also the third brother Jin.
The fighting scene between Yichuan and his senior brother Ding Xiu jumped to the end. Not to mention the joy in the middle, Jin Yichuan, who has been cheating money, even blocked bullets for Ding Xiu. Is it unreasonable to say that just because Ding Xiu has never touched that girl? It is unreasonable; and Shen Lian and Zhao Jingzhong's scenes in the corridor, the fighting characteristics are not outstanding enough. Even the eldest brother Lu Jianxing did not explain the fight scene on the way to surrender. Even if all the scenes in the capital are secret battles, there should be big scenes on the grassland?
Can……
The small-produced film "Embroidered Chunjian" is a very sincere director who wants to tell a good story of "Repressing" when it should be suppressed. Unfortunately, due to insufficient production funds, all the key points of a good movie were erased. Even Zhang Zhen, who had signed 75 days, completed all the scenes in just 60 days. When Zhang Zhen was filming, he repeatedly persuaded the director to "Can we still be more detailed?" What is this?
Thinking of this, Shao Yingxiong could only sigh for Lu Yang. Who could not attract more investment? Even the last scene on the grassland outside the pass was at the cost of reducing the shooting expenses for more than ten days.
It's different now. Shao Yingxiong's drama has an investment of 45 million yuan, and it is still 45 million yuan in 2005. In addition, they have big names, stories, and the best martial arts fingers. If they can't make a satisfactory "Embroidered Spring Sword" in this way, but let the audience sigh when they walk out of the theater, then he doesn't have to hang out on the big screen. He will return to Huayi and live his life with his job on the small screen.
"Guide Yuan, let's continue."
Shao Yingxiong, who had enough rest, started a new round of training. His sweatshirt was already wet. He was scolded by Yuan Xinyi again and again when he ignored his expression because he completed his movements, and kept falling in the movements that he ignored for his expressions. Even so, he never thought of giving up.
Yuan Xinyi said to Yuan Heping behind his back: "This kid is very hard, and it is a good piece of material when beaten."
Yuan Heping was a little surprised. Yuan Xinyi, as a veteran of the Yuan family, rarely praised others, but today he praised an outsider. The reason for praising this outsider was not because the other party's identity was Boss Huayi.
Immediately during the filming process, including Wei Jiahui and Yuan Heping, they all saw the aliens. They were not surprised by the increase in Shao Yingxiong's movement performance, but because Shao Yingxiong was still gritting his teeth and insisting on filming. Even the training at night was never delayed.
Shao Yingxiong won the respect of many martial artists in Xiangjiang with his own efforts rather than the status of boss Huayi. Yuan Heping and Yuan Xinyi were no longer sarcastic. Yuan Heping also said to him: "If you understand it, you will be able to fight, but if you don't understand it, you will die."
Yuan Heping is used to bringing a folding bed at the filming scene. When he is tired, he will lie down and put it in the van with the bedding. I heard that Li Lianjie once slept on this bed when he was the most tired.
Liang Jiahui also changed his attitude towards Shao Yingxiong. Liang Jiahui is an artist who came out of the "ban". He was an "all-round genius" by people in the Xiangjiang circle. It is precisely because of this that he has high requirements for actors who act opposite him. However, after Wei Jiahui polished it himself, Shao Yingxiong has already gained a certain understanding of film performance. At this time, when he acted against Liang Jiahui, Shao Yingxiong could make Liang Jiahui look at him with great gaze.
He is no longer Shao Yingxiong when filming "Infernal Affairs". He can keep up with Liang Jiahui's rhythm in both body language and restrained facial expressions in literary dramas. Even though Liang Jiahui still has the upper hand in momentum and acting skills in the opponent drama, Shao Yingxiong can do so without letting Liang Jiahui's light completely cover up himself with full strength!
This is the main reason why Liang Jiahui respects Shao Yingxiong who appears on the set as an actor!
If an actor wants to gain the respect of his peers, there is no other way than to show off his acting skills. Maybe you can become the front line by luck, but you will never be able to express respect to you by luck. In 2014, Yang Mi was also the front line, and no one can deny this, but the words "acting" will never fall on her, at least it will not fall on her in 2014.
Liang Jiahui is an acting player. He will respect Shao Yingxiong who inspects as a boss. But if he does not have enough acting skills in the crew as an actor, then his respect will be superficial.
"Hey." Liang Jiahui took the initiative to sit next to Shao Yingxiong on the set for the first time. It was the tenth day after Shao Yingxiong joined the group.
"Brother Hui." Shao Yingxiong called Liang Jiahui and Wei Jiahui the same title.
"I thought there was something wrong with the scene just now. Look, when you heard Zhou Miaotong and Mr. Yan's affair in the room, your cold face and eyes showed hatred and jealousy, but you didn't show guilt. At this time, just add an extra machine. Record your eyes as you freeze the hatred and jealousy expressed when Mr. Yan's figure, and record the guilt you looked at Zhou Miaotong's figure, and then the whole emotion would be fulfilled..."
Shao Yingxiong immediately stood up and went to the monitor and asked, "Let me take a look at the camera just now."
Wei Jiahui asked in a daze: "What's the problem?"
When replaying the camera, Shao Yingxiong made a quick decision: "Director, let's do it again. The scenes in the corridor do not need to be repeated. I'll just do it again. It won't take a few minutes."
This is the starting point for Liang Jiahui to respect Shao Yingxiong. He not only has acting skills, but also listens to others' advice and can correct himself.
Many people can't hear others say they are bad, and many people say things that they don't like when they open their mouths when they see something that they don't like. In Liang Jiahui's eyes, Shao Yingxiong is different from these people. He said that Shao Yingxiong's martial arts scenes are too bad, but as a result, Shao Yingxiong pesters Yuan Xinyi to practice movements every day, and his growth rate is amazing. He said that adding a machine to the camera just now would be better. Shao Yingxiong verified it, and after thinking about it, he immediately made a decision.
Liang Jiahui used his decades of interpretation experience to tell Shao Yingxiong which is right and which ones can be better. Shao Yingxiong did not choose to listen blindly or modify blindly. He has a self-certification zone and will enter the modification procedure after certification. He has his own opinion and listens to others' advice, but his ears are not soft. Liang Jiahui cannot estimate that he will go to that point, but he will definitely go a long way anyway.
After the night scene was filmed, Shao Yingxiong held a main creative meeting. He expressed his thoughts about the embroidered Chundao: "According to the actual shooting, Yuan Heping and Yuan guided the action design to design the action scenes in a gradual order, and finally pushed them all the way to the scene outside the pass and the Jurchens to launch the peak burst point. I am not saying that this is not good, but through such a long period of expectation, will the audience raise the expectation value to a level that we cannot satisfy?"
"Guide Yuan, can I make a suggestion, let's change the explosive points in the action. For example, when we were in the Chen Mansion, wouldn't we use some action scenes that were not very visually sensitive? Then when the three brothers killed Wei Zhongxian, we would first explode according to the level; then after returning to Beijing, the three brothers were monitored and fought and chased, which could form a prelude. Taking advantage of this prelude to the Yan Mansion, the fighting scene was more viewing." Shao Yingxiong looked at Yuan Heping's thoughtful expression and said: "In this order, we exploded on the grassland with different visual feelings, and finally had a grand action scene." He gestured with his hands at the high ground of the fighting level. With such a stroke, the difference in the fighting level of the whole play suddenly appeared.
"If that's the case, the movement design must be changed. The Yan family's young master of the Yan family cannot break his hands. If the broken hands occur in the Yan family, then the battle between Chen Lian and Zhao Jingzhong will be unsatisfied. According to you, this means that the level has not been improved, but has decreased. Chen Lian was just shot in the corridor. If the level is improved, Zhao Jingzhong's head should be cut off."
Shao Yingxiong nodded and said, "Yes, Yan's play can break the hamstrings of the Yan family's young master. He is also disabled, and his visual effect will be one level worse."
