Chapter 251 Warm wine kills Hua Xiong
If ordinary people were in such overwhelming praise, they would probably lose themselves, but Zhou Yi still maintained a normal heart because he had known that this day would come, just early or late.
From an inspiration that came to mind last summer, to reading millions of words of information to starting script creation, to preparing funds to build a crew, to completing filming, to winning awards in Cannes, and then global releases, all the way, it is really a step-by-step process.
Zhou Yi has no new inspiration in his mind for the time being. When he reaches his current status, it is difficult for him to let go of his posture, abandon his integrity, and then shoot some brainless follow-up movies to make money. This is undoubtedly a limitation.
After all, in the eyes of the world, he is a Qingliu in the entertainment industry. He represents a master of acting and is simply a fairy-like character.
However, Zhou Yi did not have the opportunity to rest. Although there was no new film plan, the filming of "Three Kingdoms" was in full swing.
The month after "The Sword Dance in the City" was released, "The Three Kingdoms" was filmed for a whole month. As a 100-episode masterpiece, the shooting speed was not increased at the beginning because the director and film crew had a lot of work to coordinate and handle, and the actors' status had to be stimulated bit by bit.
The producer Zhou Yi is a completely dismissive manager, and it basically depends on the director Sun Shicheng and several deputy producers to support him.
However, no one complained about Zhou Yi. The great success of "Sword Dance in the City" has given everyone a lot of motivation and is more optimistic about the prospects of "Three Kingdoms". Therefore, although Sun Shicheng has very high requirements, the crew members are also trying their best to overcome difficulties to complete the shooting task.
In one month, the filming of "Three Kingdoms" has advanced to the plot of the eighteen princes in defying Dong.
Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Three Rebellions in Taoyuan, the Ten Constant Insurgency Rebellion, Dong Zhuo went to Beijing, Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan, and the Eighteen princes formed an alliance.
Many of the scenes are big scenes, requiring thousands of extras to be dispatched, and there are many scenes of horse war. The command and dispatch test the director's level, so the filming is very slow.
However, Mr. Sun Shicheng was not in a hurry at all. His standard was to strive for excellence, and it didn't matter if he had been photographed for three or five years.
Of course, investors are certainly unacceptable. The top part of "Three Kingdoms" will be broadcast on major satellite TV stations at the latest in the second half of this year.
When Zhou Yi officially joined the group, the crew was filming war scenes in Zhuozhou Film and Television City, and the two highlights of "Wind of Hua Xiong" and "Three Heroes Fighting Lu Bu".
The eighteen princes of the 18th vassals were also a gathering of heroes. The heroes gathered in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Not only did they need to dispatch a large number of extras, but there were also many famous and surnamed characters.
The princes, military generals and strategists appeared one after another, and the most shining ones were undoubtedly "Lu Bu" and "Guan Yu".
Mr. Sun Shicheng is already 79 years old, less than a year before his 80th birthday. However, he is still energetic, wearing a white baseball cap on his head and a simple plaid shirt on his body. He is communicating with the crew with Song Dachuan and Sun Qingtong.
"This time, we used 12 camera positions, and basically all important roles are included. Group scenes are the most difficult to shoot, and it is best to shoot, so we can grasp the key points!" Sun Shicheng gestured: "Actors need to perform in a state of performance. The play of 'Warm Wine and Kill Hua Xiong' is to have a comparison. The princes were confident at the beginning, and then were shocked by Hua Xiong, and then the shock after Guan Yu went to the battle, they all had to be performed!"
"Don't show too much, it must be in line with your personality, Dao Lin, and the mainland, it depends on your performance later!" Sun Shicheng turned around and gave serious instructions to the two leading actors around him.
Wei Daolin and Lu Ming are already wearing military uniforms and are majestic, especially Lu Ming, who is 1.93 meters tall and burly and majestic, and has a kind of aura of not being powerful and angry.
Wei Daolin is a veteran actor and is also considered the biggest character in the entire "Three Kingdoms" crew. His performance is quite outstanding. He really performed the style of a generation of heroes, which made Mr. Sun Shicheng quite satisfied.
Lu Ming was an unexpected surprise. You should know that before joining the crew of "Three Kingdoms", Lu Ming was just an extra. He was not a professional and had never even played a supporting role. He was also the most grassroots starring actor among all the Three Kingdoms.
However, after Lu Ming joined the crew, he kept holding the book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and the script "Three Kingdoms". The books were almost broken by him. If someone didn't understand, he often asked the director for making progress in literary dramas.
In martial arts, Lu Ming performed even more amazingly. He is also the fastest and best among all the generals who play equestrianism.
"Be ready, then start shooting!" Sun Shicheng waved his hand: "Today, the weather is beautiful, strive for one-time success, and we will film the 'Three Heroes vs. Lu Bu' later!"
The actors' costumes, props and makeup have been prepared, and they have entered the shooting venue, standing or sitting.
The supporting men also wore armor and held long spears in their hands, and stood carefully.
The photography crew was ready, just waiting for a command.
The Eighteen-Road Princes Alliance is the highlight of "Three Kingdoms", so the crew specially set up semi-fixed tents, terraces, and fences in Zhuozhou Film and Television City. This condition is much better than the 1994 version of CCTV's Three Kingdoms.
In the big tent, eighteen princes took their seats one after another, and the leader of the alliance Yuan Shao took the lead. Cao Cao, the initiator of the alliance, and Yuan Shu, the prefect of Nanyang, sat on the left and right. Liu, Guan and Zhang stood behind Gongsun Zan.
Wang Haimin, the actor who plays Yuan Shao, is a professional performance teacher at Beijing Film Academy. He is forty years old this year, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, handsome and burly. His acting skills are naturally straightforward and very moderate.
At this moment, director assistant Liu Lanting led Zhou Yi in.
Sun Qingtong saw Zhou Yi at first sight, and her eyes instantly showed a surprise expression and quickly walked forward.
Just as he was about to speak, Mr. Sun Shicheng waved his hand domineeringly: "Shots start!"
Zhou Yi stood still and began to watch the scene.
"I didn't expect Sun Wentai to be defeated by Hua Xiong. It was really unfavorable to go out and his spirit was severely injured!" Wang Haimin, wearing a red cloak, suddenly stood up and paced anxiously, his beard jumping and he was so angry.
Yuan Shao is a man who is good at planning but has no decisions, is harsh and bold, and cannot hold back his temper. Wang Haimin's performance is very classic. He can only perform this feeling in just one sentence or an expression.
"Everyone, you guys, why don't you talk?" Yuan Shao looked at him, and then he found that there was silence in the tent, and the princes all had expressionless expressions and no one answered.
Behind Gongsun Zan, the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang were browsing and smiling.
It's like the teacher on the podium was furious, but someone laughed out loud.
