rising director

The large screens in the squares of major cities are the first choice.

According to the current situation, "Super Girl" has already fired its first shot, and it will be broadcast on TV after the summer audition is over.Wan Xiaohu didn't care too much about whether "Super Girl" would be popular across the country this time, from the moment he handed over the program planning.

Wan Xiaohu has already decided not to worry about so many things, so as not to tire himself out.

After watching in the square for a while, I took Xue Kaiqi, who still couldn't get enough of it, to wander around the mountain city for a whole morning, and then rushed back to the film crew in the afternoon, and went to the hotel for dinner together.

"Comrades work so hard. The movie is finished and sold well after it's released. I'll give you red envelopes." Wan Xiaohu said proudly, holding a wine glass.

"Wan Dao is wise."

"A toast to Director Wan."

"Director Zhu Wan's "Infernal Affairs" and Director Ning's "Crazy Stone" are both big sellers."

Push the cup and change the cup, time flies by.

In the afternoon, Wan Xiaohu stayed in the crew with peace of mind, and Ning Hao, the producer, made the movie.The little assistant Xue Kaiqi was drinking and fanning, serving in every possible way, which made Wan Xiaohu feel that it is refreshing to be a producer.However, he just relaxed for one day and returned to Hong Kong the next day.

The crew is on vacation, and he needs to take advantage of this gap to browse through all the previous filming content, and then prepare for the next filming.

Conquer "Infernal Affairs".There is no room for half-heartedness.

……

On July 2001, 7, the Royal Castle Building.

Today, we filmed a scene of Huang Zhicheng falling from a building. In this scene, Mak Siu Fai and Zhuang Qiang originally planned that Chen Yongren and Huang Zhicheng meet on the rooftop.He was found by the gang~, chased after him, and shot Huang Zhicheng to death.Later, I always felt that this was not exciting enough, not thrilling enough, and I couldn't express that kind of atmosphere.

And it repeated with Chen Yongren's death.

After Wan Xiaohu read the script, he immediately offered a modification plan: "Throw him downstairs."

in a horrific way.to create a sad mood.

"Use a crane to lower people down slowly?" Mai Zhaohui asked.

"You don't need a crane, just throw it down, and when Chen Yongren arrives in a taxi, throw Huang Zhicheng over and hit the taxi he was in."

So there is today's scene.

"Brother Sheng, you have to hold on to this scene." Wan Xiaohu held the script.Command at the scene and shout to the second floor.

The entire Fort Royal Building was pulled apart by the crew with yellow wires, and a crane was added to the second floor. Huang Qiusheng had bloody makeup on his face and was fastening his safety belt. Hearing this, he said excitedly: "Director, you will Take a look."

He is a well-known veteran actor in Hong Kong.First-class acting skills, smart people.

I knew early on that this is a once-in-a-lifetime scene for an actor. Whether or not Huang Zhicheng, a good policeman, can be played well depends on today's scene.As the winner of the Academy Awards, Huang Qiusheng has acted in many movies, but they are all perverted movies. He plays either psychos or villains, and his personal image has always been negative.

this time.Huang Qiusheng has the idea of ​​transforming himself through "Infernal Affairs".

Huang Qiusheng was confident, and Wan Xiaohu didn't ask any more questions. Among the leading actors, he was the one who made Wan Xiaohu feel at ease the most.

"Props group. Is this okay?" Wan Xiaohu walked to the taxi again and asked, pointing to the card on it.

The prop master replied: "Don't worry, director, it will break if you touch it, it's safe and reliable."

"That's good."

When everything was ready, Wan Xiaohu directed the crew to stand aside, and then picked up the loudspeaker: "Attention all units, get ready."

"Crane set is ready."

"The camera crew is ready."

"The lighting team is ready."

"Okay, five numbers, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Acon!"

After the voice fell, Wan Xiaohu looked at the monitor.

The car stopped, Liang Chaowei got out of the car, at this time.

Bang!

In the camera, Huang Qiusheng slammed into the taxi. Although there was nothing at the scene, a tragic atmosphere still rushed out through the camera.

"Push forward, push forward!" Wan Xiaohu shouted.

Li Yaohui and Guan Benliang hurriedly pushed the camera forward to take a close-up of Huang Qiusheng.

Half of Huang Qiusheng's face was covered in blood, his eyes were half-opened and half-closed, and his hands were opened. This posture, who said that playing a dead person can't be good, this is acting crazy, perfect can't be more perfect!

"Very good, keep this posture, hurry up Liang Chaowei!" Wan Xiaohu took the script and began to gesture.

Liang Chaowei also seemed to be influenced by Huang Qiusheng's excellent acting skills, and he completely entered the state.

Three consecutive side shots and front shots were all passed at once.

"Okay, very good, rest for 10 minutes, set up the next game!" Wan Xiaohu yelled with a loudspeaker, and then patted Huang Qiusheng, "Brother Sheng, it's over, but please continue to sit on it for a while, wait for you It has to be used as a prop."

Huang Qiusheng sat upright on the roof of the car: "No problem, how was the performance just now?"

"Excellent, if you judge one of the top ten shots, this will definitely be selected."

……

As the crew worked together, Wan Xiaohu felt that the pressure on his heart began to subside quietly along with the progress of completion bit by bit.Moreover, during the two months of filming, his directing skills have definitely improved by leaps and bounds, and his control over the scene and the heat is ten times stronger than before the filming of "Infernal Affairs".

Therefore, the shooting speed of movies is getting faster and faster.

"The production team is well-adjusted, and the progress is getting faster and faster, and it may end within the year." Mai Zhaohui looked at the copy and said to Wan Xiaohu.

No one thought that the procrastination before was due to Wan Xiaohu's lack of ability, and everyone thought it was because Wan Xiaohu had just come to Hong Kong and hadn't adapted.This allowed Wan Xiaohu to keep his title of the most outstanding young director without showing any timidity.

"Work harder, take advantage of the scorching heat, try to shoot all the interior scenes in August and October, and shoot the exterior scenes after October."

"That's right. Ming Pao Weekly will visit the crew tomorrow. How do you plan to keep the level of secrecy, what should be revealed and what should not be revealed?"

"You can talk about the pain and tiredness of filming, but it's best not to talk about the content of the movie."

Wan Xiaohu set the tone of the interview.

The next day, reporters from "Ming Pao Weekly" walked into the studio of "Infernal Affairs", which is a weekly magazine of "Ming Pao Weekly". "Ming Pao Weekly" focuses on entertainment gossip.The actors were confessed by Wan Xiaohu, and they never mentioned the content of the film, and kept talking about the interesting things that happened during the filming.

As for Wan Xiaohu, he didn't say much, because he didn't like gossip.

Finally, the reporter asked for a group photo.
