A different director [entertainment circle]

heart, because it is hard for him to imagine that classic movies can bloom in a continent like a cultural desert.

Moreover, Yuan Qiye always believed that Liang Yongfeng still needed to be tempered, so he kept him by his side.

However, the rapid development of the mainland box office has made Yuan Qiye deeply aware of the potential of the mainland.More and more Hong Kong stars and actors are willing to go to the mainland to seek gold. According to legend, the land is full of opportunities.

Today's meeting with Qin Yan made Yuan Qiye recall what his apprentice said back then

Yuan Qiye thought, maybe even Qin Yan, the one who can change the mainland market, would say no.He has seen too many people, and he saw something called hope in Qin Yan.

Although Yuan Qiye is limited by various unspeakable rules and cannot directly participate in Qin Yan's project, he can definitely send his own students to participate.

If my students encounter some unsolvable problems when they are shooting a movie, it is reasonable for them to help out occasionally.

Of course, Yuan Qiye also has selfish intentions, that is, he hopes that his students can develop better.

Regardless of what Qin Yan said about Hong Kong and Taiwan just now, the traditional culture is well inherited, the martial arts instructors in the entire Chinese film and television circle are concentrated in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the film industry chain is complete...

But in fact, martial arts talents are withered and difficult to maintain, and outsiders don't know it at all.Even though Yuan Qiye has won the Golden Horse Award now, there are very few people who are really willing to learn from him.Apart from Liang Yongfeng, he couldn't even find another apprentice who could inherit his mantle.

After all, the martial arts instructor industry is an oligopolistic market. Those top martial arts instructors can make a lot of money, while the bottom workers can only be dangerous substitutes who sell coolies.

Don't talk about injuries and dangers, just talking about the salary of Wu Ti, it's not much higher than the utility.After working hard to learn art for more than ten years, there is no way to guarantee a living. Who wants to enter this industry?

There are indeed many famous martial arts instructors in Hong Kong City, such as Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, etc., but the more so, the greater the pressure of competition in Hong Kong City.

Hong Kong City produces 200 films a year, of which less than one-fifth of the films really need martial arts guidance.

If, as Qin Yan and his apprentice Liang Yongfeng said, the mainland has a bigger market, this is undoubtedly an opportunity for the martial arts guidance industry in Hong Kong City.

Perhaps it is also a good choice to obey his apprentice's wish and let him go to the mainland to develop. After all, Qin Yan is a director he is optimistic about.

Of course, Qin Yan didn't directly agree. He has very high standards for his films, and he also has corresponding requirements for every working member.Otherwise, Qin Yan would not have made a special trip to Hong Kong City, keeping his head down and being small, just for the one in ten thousand possibility of inviting Yuan Qiye.

Under Yuan Qiye's recommendation, Qin Yan soon met Liang Yongfeng.Liang Yongfeng is not young anymore, in his thirties, he is a very refined man, but he has never really served as a martial arts director for a large-scale movie.

Qin Yan didn't look down on him because of his lack of experience. After all, Liang Yongfeng had studied with Yuan Qiye for so many years.

Without the participation of Yuan Qiye, Qin Yan and Liang Yongfeng chatted for a whole afternoon.Qin Yan took out some fighting storyboards in the script and asked Liang Yongfeng to help him design the actions.

When Liang Yongfeng saw the thick stack in Qin Yan's hands, drawing detailed storyboards, he was already tempted.

Qin Yan's strength, attitude, and funds can all be placed in front of him. He also realized that this is a unique opportunity, so he used all his strength to show Qin Yan his strength.

Later, Liang Yongfeng even took up props and weapons to cover up for Qin Yan.

Although Liang Yongfeng was far behind Yuan Qiye in terms of martial arts artistry, his design was quite innovative, and he was determined to forge ahead. In the end, the two reached a preliminary agreement on cooperation.

After completing the first task of his trip, Qin Yan did not leave Hong Kong City immediately. Instead, with the help of Hua Guoxing Company and Liang Yongfeng, he met many actors in Hong Kong City.

Of course, they are not actors at the level of actor and actress, they care more about their status than Yuan Qiye.

Qin Yan made appointments with actors who were in their 30s or 40s, who were still in TVB and other TV dramas and had never been on the big screen.

Don't think that Qin Yan is such an idealistic person, he hopes to choose a cost-effective partner from this group of TV drama actors.

Qin Yan's original plan was that after years of training in TV dramas, these actors' acting skills have basically reached the standard.And because it has appeared in TV dramas for a long time, it also has a fairly good reputation in the mainland. After all, the most popular TVB TV dramas in mainland audiovisual stores these years.

Qin Yan knew that his box office appeal was definitely not as good as those veteran directors, and since there were no big-name actors to join him, film promotion would definitely be a troublesome issue, so he could only try to take advantage of it.

And these actors must also want to switch from TV series to movies, and the price is much lower than that of actors with the same reputation.

The actors' remuneration reserved by Qin Yan is not much, so of course he will use every penny as two cents.

The reality once again gave Qin Yan a headache. He originally thought it was a win-win situation, but getting along with these Hong Kong TV drama actors made Qin Yan quite uncomfortable.

After these people knew that Qin Yan was an actor and director from the inland, their eyes showed obvious contempt.

They all thought that Qin Yan, who came from the mainland, was just a bumpkin.

Not to mention that Qin Yan's request at the time needed to be filmed in the interior for a long time, and his attitude was even more perfunctory.From their point of view, the mainland is a barren land, how could filming in the inland be as comfortable as being in the port city.

In fact, Qin Yan can also understand their thoughts, because the conditions in mainland China are indeed not as good as Hong Kong City in recent years, but this does not mean that Qin Yan is willing to accept this view.

Everyone knows that people have the instinct to dislike the poor and love the rich, but when they find that their relatives only have a pair of snobbish eyes, they will still be disappointed with their relatives.

Most of the actors of this age were born in the most prosperous era of Hong Kong City, and it was also an era ruled by the Never Falling Kingdom.

They don't have deep feelings for the mainland like Yuan Qiye, and they understand what cultural inheritance is. They only have resistance and contempt in their hearts.

But they couldn't refuse the temptation of the movie, and they also knew the funds in Qin Yan's hands.While holding his superior posture, he also showed his willingness to cooperate with Qin Yan with a rewarding attitude, and put forward many requirements on working hours and contract prices.

It really made Qin Yan sick.

It's not just Qin Yan who has this experience, many mainland actors and directors have encountered all kinds of vicious difficulties when they collaborated with Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television circles.

So after getting in touch with a few middle-aged second-tier actors, Qin Yan gave up the idea of ​​finding actors in Hong Kong City.

Instead of asking these uncles to go back to make offerings, Qin Yan might as well go back and dig out more mainland actors.

But Qin Yan also had a small notebook, and he wrote down all the names of these actors.

Since they don't want to cooperate with me today, and they don't want to go to mainland China to film, then they don't want to talk about cooperation in the future.

Qin Yan never considered himself a saint, nor did he think that he was generous enough.

For the embarrassment given to me by others, one day of course I have to pay back.

After agreeing on an approximate starting time with Liang Yongfeng, Qin Yan immediately returned to the mainland, and then continued with casting.

There are several younger roles in this play, among which Xie Beiyang and Xi Qianqian are the male and female protagonists.

To be honest, when Qin Yan was considering the lead role, he also hesitated.Because Xie Beiyang's foundation is still a bit weak.On the big screen, a person's acting skills will be placed in front of the audience by Chiguo/Guo to be assessed.

But the next morning when he returned home, when he saw Xie Beiyang getting up early in the morning and going downstairs to practice vocalization, he put aside all hesitation.

Isn't it the basics?I, Qin Yan, can't transfer/teach a good actor?

Qin Yan immediately took out a small notebook and began to design special training for Xie Beiyang.

Qin Yan still invited the boy from the acting department that he and he had invited back then——Yang Zhenhai.

It was the boy who rejected his cooperation invitation, but was also the only boy who told himself the reason.

Although Zhenhai did not provide much substantive help, sometimes a little kindness is enough to change the fate of others and himself.

In addition, there are the second female lead and several young characters with relatively large roles. Qin Yan held a small audition meeting in Pingying and Central Opera.

Mainly for the junior and senior students of these two schools, the sensation Qin Yan caused was no less than those well-known directors.

Because "Ancient House" is more influential among young people, and there are precedents such as Xi Qianqian and Xie Beiyang, so they are full of expectations for Qin Yan.

The entire casting meeting was Qin Yan's speech. After all, Qin Yan did not accept any company's capital injection for this movie, and he was [-]% the producer.

There are only two selection criteria, that is, the fit between acting skills and characters, and other issues are not within Qin Yan's consideration.

When the list was finally announced, it did cause quite a stir in the school, but Qin Yan didn't care at all.In his movies, he is the only master.

There are also some important supporting roles in the movie that require middle-aged and elderly actors to play, and Qin Yan is very busy with this matter.

Whether in Hollywood or in Hong Kong City, there is an actor's union, and most actors will leave their detailed information in the actor's union.

Although Qin Yan was not ashamed of the quality of the actors he met in Hong Kong City, he had to admit that the actors' union system in Hong Kong City was much better than that in mainland China.

At that time, he only put forward the age, image characteristics and remuneration price of the actors he needed, and quickly screened out the candidates for appointment.

But now Qin Yan wanted to find a suitable actor, he was looking for a needle in a haystack.Fortunately, Qin Yan still has a certain understanding of actors in the mainland market.

He has a lot of suitable old actors in his heart, with low salary, excellent acting skills, high professionalism and hard work.

With the help of He Jianhua, Qin Yan finally got in touch with the actor.

Qin Yan was embarrassed to send them audition invitations, but brought the script himself, and came to communicate with these actors one by one.

Talk about scripts, characters, plans...

It took Qin Yan more than half a month to determine the actor.

In fact, in most film projects, there are assistant directors or casting directors who are responsible for the selection work, and the director only needs to decide on the main actors.

Qin Yan actually thought about finding one or two assistant directors to help him with some basic work, but in the end he chose to do it himself.

Now the project team of this film is quite immature and young. Only by personally inviting these old actors and expressing enough respect to them can the next work be smoother.

----

Because there are still many other issues such as staff and shooting locations that need to be dealt with, after the actors have been basically confirmed, Qin Yan is still not busy with the official start.

But this does not mean that the actors can wait for the start-up with peace of mind. Since May, Qin Yan has required all young actors to train for 5 days in advance, and other actors for 30 days.

Xie Beiyang and Xi Qianqian have already worked with Qin Yan, and they know how strict Qin Yan is in terms of work, and they have long been used to the various arrangements of the crew.

Young actors like Yang Zhenhai, who are still studying at school and have no major works, have not officially stepped into the acting circle, lack resources, and are not particularly pampered.

So facing Qin Yan, a director who can control their stay and roles, they naturally choose to obey.

In fact, the environment for making movies in this era is much better than 20 years later.

There are no chattering media, various variety show activities, and the pervasive Internet...

There is an unbridgeable gap between actors and common people, and the distance between the two worlds is even further.

Perhaps actors in this era do not make as much money as in the future, but there is also an advantage, that is, under such a relatively distant relationship, actors can devote themselves more fully to acting.

Now when making movies, actors will often be stationed in the crew.For a year and a half, I basically didn't deal with the outside media much, and there was no such work as daily business.

It's no wonder that many people miss why good movies and TV series can be made in this era.After more than 10 years, the environment and conditions have improved, but the works with the quality of before can no longer be shot.

Qin Yan has no intention of judging who is good and who is bad in the two eras. The high income of actors, the influx of capital, and the emergence of more works are not an absolute bad thing, but each era has its own characteristics.

Qin Yan made a movie in that impetuous era, and it often took a year and a half to finish it carefully.But now that there is such a stable creative environment, he certainly doesn't want to miss it.

The young actors are all obedient, and the middle-aged actors are also very persuasive.

After all, Qin Yan's character is also a very important consideration when selecting young actors, and he doesn't want conflicts in his future work.It is shameless for some actors to rely on their old age to sell their old age.

What are the young actors doing during this time?Qin Yan asked Liang Yongfeng to train these seven or eight young actors physically. For this reason, Qin Yan also rented a professional gym.

Although the martial arts movie this time does not focus on action and fighting scenes, it also does not emphasize the blood in the arena, making it more relaxed and funny.

But after all, this is a martial arts film, and audiences just hope to see superb martial arts in martial arts films.

Wonderful action scenes can add a lot of color to the whole movie. Qin Yan has already asked Liang Yongfeng to design several important fighting scenes.

But when Qin Yan made a movie here, he didn't allow young actors to use stuntmen.When he signed the contract, he asked if he could accept real body play.

Because the effect of using a substitute is definitely not as good as going on stage in person.

Even in the era when movie special effects are highly developed in the future, once stand-ins are used, it is impossible to use full-body frontal shots for fighting scenes, only facial close-ups and side shots, which will make the whole movie lack sense of substitution.

On the other hand, it is impossible for Wu Ti to correspond to the figures of the actors one by one, and there will definitely be discrepancies.Any goofy shot will immediately reduce the texture of the entire movie greatly.

Moreover, Qin Yan had told them in advance that this time the filming was more physically intensive, so they were asked to do physical training in advance, at least Xie Beiyang would obediently go for a morning jog every morning.

But the current concentrated training places more emphasis on basic movements, how to make your movements more powerful in front of the camera, and what kind of changes in facial expressions should there be when exerting strength...

The fighting dramas in Hong Kong City are quite famous in the international film circle.

For example, in the close combat scenes in "New Police Story", Mr. Chen Long showed the tightness of his body muscles, and every movement was punched to the flesh. The sense of power will instantly pull the audience into the whole movie situation. middle.

Moreover, people who practice martial arts have a unique spirit.Qin Yan didn't ask Xie Beiyang and the others to do this, but they must not make a person from the Jianghu look like a Hanlin student suffering from illness.

So a group of glamorous handsome men and beautiful women are doing physical training indoors, sweating profusely and gnashing their teeth.

"Raise your hands a little higher!", "Be ruthless when exerting strength, use your eyes as a sandbag and hit your enemy!", "I'm not happy! Then come and hit me!", "Strength! Are you Man! I think Xi Qianqian is stronger than you!"...

Liang Yongfeng's voice of training people kept ringing out. To be honest, he was surprised that Qin Yan would train all the young actors together, which is unimaginable in Hong Kong City.

And Qin Yan said that if anyone can't meet his standards in the end, he will directly replace the actor, even Xi Qianqian and Xie Beiyang are no exception.

At first Yang Zhenhai and Yuan Qiushan were skeptical, but after training, they were shocked when they saw Xi Qianqian's cruelty to them.

They asked Xi Qianqian in private why he had to train so hard, Xi Qianqian just said: "The first time I worked with Qin Yan, it was because the actress he originally worked with was late three times in a row."

As for what happened afterwards, it goes without saying that everyone knows.Although Xie Beiyang has no such experience, he can be said to be obedient to Qin Yan's words and has never been lazy.

This frightened Yang Zhenhai and the others badly enough, but they managed to win this opportunity, so they also started training hard.

According to Qin Yan's request, Liang Yongfeng can be said to have practiced several people to death, and everyone wailed in the gym regardless of their image.

Of course, the effect of training is also quite obvious, especially after taking off clothes in the gym, everyone's body shape has changed.

For example, Xie Beiyang's shoulders are slightly wider than before, and the muscles on his arms are smoother.If there is tights in the play, once Xie Beiyang exerts strength, the muscle lines of the entire arm will be highlighted, and the aura of a heroic boy will rush to his face.

Liang Yongfeng was even thinking about whether to suggest Qin Yan to give Xie Beiyang an injured look, which would definitely have a contrasting sense of vulnerability.

As for Xi Qianqian and Yuan Qiushan, although they don't have too strict physical requirements, they have been given individual fitness classes so that they can show the shape that an athletic woman should have.

During this period of time, these young people were tortured miserably.

Everyone is a student, and in their hearts they call themselves film art workers.Where have they experienced such high-intensity physical training, three hours of physical training in the morning and two hours of martial arts training in the afternoon.

After training every day, they just want to lie on the bed like a dog, and they don't want to go anywhere.Recently, none of their friends can see them at night, and they all wonder if they are dating or dating.

But the fact is that they and the bed are inseparable from each other.

But it was not Liang Yongfeng who really put pressure on them, but Qin Yan.

In the beginning, Qin Yan came to the gym to exchange some action designs with Liang Yongfeng.Recently, he is modifying the storyboard again, and he has a lot of good inspiration in his mind.

At the same time, let's take a look at the physical fitness of young actors like Xie Beiyang. After all, the action design still has to be modified according to their actual situation.

But after seeing Xie Beiyang's training, Qin Yan was also moved.

In the past, he was an extremely self-disciplined person, and he had very high demands on himself in terms of sports.

Moreover, Qin Yan does not exercise for others, he is completely enjoying the sense of accomplishment after self-torture.So although he has a figure comparable to a male model, he has wrapped himself in formal clothes for many years, and outsiders don't know it at all.

There was only one time when I went to the beach for vacation and was accidentally caught by paparazzi.Only people in the world know how sexy his figure is. Qin Yan's swimsuit photos directly crush domestic traffic.

But since then, Qin Yan has paid more attention to his privacy and will never appear on the public beach again. This has become a great regret in many people's hearts.

Since his rebirth, Qin Yan has also been exercising.It's just that the writing of the script was too torturous some time ago, and he didn't have time to maintain basic exercises, and he obviously felt that his muscles had begun to relax.

Seeing Xie Beiyang and Yang Zhenhai sweating profusely from the exercise, Qin Yan's heart was naturally moved.Anyway, he wasn't particularly busy during this time, so he joined the morning physical training together.

Although they are all of the same age, they are completely inferior to Qin Yan when it comes to physical exercise.Especially after Qin Yan took off his coat because of sweating, Xie Beiyang, Yang Zhenhai and other boys' desire to win was instantly aroused.

Why is their director's figure so good!This is the only idea of ​​several young actors!

Men are always fighting creatures.Especially when you are with your peers, all kinds of weird comparisons are always inevitable.

Good physical exercise, because Qin Yan's participation turned out to be a strange competition. 10KM pace running, squat weight, arm thrust, etc., everything can be competed.

Later, after the middle-aged actors joined physical training, this kind of comparison did not weaken, but intensified.

There are several middle-aged male actors in their 30s. They looked at the young and capable bodies of Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang, and then subconsciously touched the "treasure" on their stomachs that was constantly brewing with the years. The provocation of young people.

They originally only participated in physical training, but also voluntarily joined the physical training in the morning.The gym was immediately occupied by the entire crew.

However, it was also Qin Yan's joining that quickly shortened the distance between Qin Yan and the actors, allowing a lot of work to be carried out smoothly.

Liang Yongfeng, who was in charge of the training, saw all this in his eyes, and sighed that Qin Yan's control over the actors was too strong.He only saw it in some well-known directors when he followed his master, and it could almost be said that it was forbidden.

He is now very much looking forward to the day when the filming will start. He has seen too many battles for positions, fights for roles, and sarcasm in the crew. He always feels that Qin Yan's crew will be different from others.

In addition to this training, there is still a lot of work waiting for Qin Yan to complete.For example, various issues such as the lease of the venue, the determination of other staff members, and the signing of contracts.

Huayan Company is not yet sound enough, and many tasks require Qin Yan to do it himself.

During the preparation period, "Ancient House" was screened in mainland China for a month and a half, and it was also released. "Ancient House" finally made a total box office of 1 million Chinese dollars in the mainland.

Qin Yan knew that this result was not enough for this year. After all, 2002 would be hailed as the first year of Huaguo's commercial film, but he was already satisfied.

This figure is basically the same as the 2001 million box office champion "Pearl Harbor" in 1.04, which undoubtedly injected a shot in the arm for the entire film market.

During the domestic release period, the reports on "Ancient House" and Qin Yan never stopped.The media tried their best to praise Qin Yan. According to them, Qin Yan is almost becoming the hope of domestic films, and at the same time, they are looking forward to Qin Yan's next film.

Compared with Qin Yan's high-profile departure before, Qin Yan suddenly went uncharacteristically, declined all interviews, and disappeared from public view.

If it was Qin Yan in his previous life, he might still be complacent about his achievements, but now he knows that the success of "Ancient House" is actually more due to the right time, place and people.

The time of day, the occasion of entering the WTO, the global competition.

The location is favorable, Huaguo is home, and the people of the country tout it.

Renhe, Huaying help each other, and famous directors dormant.

Some time ago, there was even a voice saying that "Ancient House" can achieve such good results abroad, so as a Chinese, we must support it.

At that time, the propaganda department of Huaying Group also approached Qin Yan and asked him if he wanted to promote, but Qin Yan directly refused.

This is just a horror film and has nothing to do with patriotism. He doesn't want to force moviegoers to watch movies they don't like under some banner.

This is also the standard he has always adhered to when shooting literary films.

Although shooting a literary film is a very difficult and low-return thing, and there are indeed profound themes that the director wants to express in the film.

But in the decades of his previous life, Qin Yan never said that literary films must be more elegant than commercial films, nor did he despise or criticize the audience of commercial films from a high point of morality or IQ.

In addition, Qin Yan also cooperated with relevant departments to do another thing that many people don't know, but it is of great significance.

A week after "Ancient House" was released, many domestic media suddenly began to report on box office stealing.

The sales of "Ancient House" across the country are extremely hot, and some movie theaters and theater chains even brazenly steal the box office of "Ancient House" in order to fill their own pockets.

It is not easy for films from mainland China to achieve success in the international arena. Many people go to the cinema to watch "Ancient House" to support the development of domestic films.

Someone actually dared to steal the box office of "Ancient House" at the risk of the world, which immediately ignited discussions in the entire society.

Then there were related reports, pointing out various common methods of stealing box office, such as handwritten movie tickets, other movie tickets to replace...

It is the first time that the unspoken rules in the movie circle have been announced in such detail in front of the public.

The audience of "Ancient House" is mostly young people, and they are also the group with the strongest awareness of rights in China.They spontaneously participate in the regulation of the market and do not want their money to be stolen by some people.

Qin Yan actually knew that there was no way to stop the box office stealing from the root cause.

After all, as long as the theater chain is ruthless enough, it can print almost exactly the same "The Ancient House" movie ticket, but it is not included in the box office statistics, and the general public has no way to monitor it.

The rectification of the box office of "Ancient House" this time is just a test of the entire market by the relevant authorities, to see how the people react to stealing the box office, and it is also for the next big hit to make a name for themselves.

In Qin Yan's memory, in the last world in 2002, there was no movie like "Ancient House" that could inspire people's sense of pride.

In the first half of the year, although some media reported some box office stealing reports, in fact, the public's attention was not enough, which made it very difficult to carry out follow-up work.

Recently, Qin Yan reads various media newspapers and periodicals when he is free, and sometimes even reads "Citizen's Daily".He could see that the relevant departments were secretly manipulating the direction of public opinion this time.

Although he is not the winner of this box office war and market reform, he can be regarded as a pioneer at any rate.

Qin Yan suddenly remembered the bad things he and Xie Beiyang encountered while watching a movie last year, so he told Xie Beiyang all the conspiracies behind it.

""The Ancient House" is a film we made together, which can be regarded as a little contribution to the reform of the box office system." Qin Yan said to Xie Beiyang with a smile. bosom.

Xie Bei Yang Yuan was happier than Qin Yan imagined, he hugged Qin Yan excitedly and said, "That's great."

When Qin Yan was hugged tightly by Xie Beiyang, his mind went blank, and he didn't know how to react.

The only thought was "that's great".

The author has something to say: I saved the manuscript last night until the new movie was released, so I really want to show it to you.

I kind of like the new movie myself.

----

In addition, in this chapter, it is written that Hong Kong actors look down on the mainland, and they all have prototypes.I originally wrote hundreds of words, but I gave up thinking about reality.It happened to be the most rampant around 2003, with different accommodation conditions, different treatment, different work intensity, and public beatings.

And they are all second- and third-tier tvb actors, so maybe it's because the kid is hard to deal with.When I checked the information at the beginning, the thief was uncomfortable.

Therefore, if you fall behind, you will be beaten.

050 power on!

"Scene 1 of "Laughing Rivers and Lakes", the filming of the first act begins."

The sound of the clapperboard sounded, and the whole set immediately entered the atmosphere of shooting.

The preliminary work of "Laughing Jianghu" has been officially completed.Some time ago, Qin Yan guided the stylist to complete the character design of "Laughing Jianghu", including costumes, makeup and so on.

Qin Yan has always been generous with the invitations of film crews.It's just that like Yuan Qiye, many successful workers would not join Qin Yan's crew even if they threw a lot of money at it.

Who wouldn't want to invite Master Ye to be the styling designer?Even Qin Yan from the last life may not be able to please him, let alone now.

Qin Yan has tried his best to choose stylists from Aesthetic Online, but the facts are hard to explain.

This is really not a question of ability, but limited by the aesthetics of the times.At present, the understanding of the martial arts image in the mainland film and television circle is basically to learn from Hong Kong City and Taicheng City, with hair tied, bunts, rags, sabers...

Not to mention the sameness, what's more, the learning is not in place. Many clothing details are shoddy, and there is a sense of cheapness when worn on the body.

In order to reduce costs, some chemical textile materials, such as chemical fiber, polyester and so on, have also begun to be used.

What's even more frightening is that under the influence of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", I have recently started to learn the simple style, which is really horrible.

The makeup artist was not much better either. The female makeup was influenced by a series of Hong Kong stars such as Lin Qingxia, and it seemed that they only showed women's charm through eyeliner.The male make-up is complete with "blade eyebrows" and "willow eyes"...

In the end, Qin Yan had to invite an old professor from the school to accompany him to design the shape.The professor designed the shape and clothing that truly integrated ancient elements, while Qin Yan was responsible for making certain modifications from the perspective of modern aesthetics.

This is derived from history, but different from history.

For the styling design, Qin Yanyou delayed for a few days before finally deciding on the styling of the main actors.Qin Yan can also be regarded as teaching-oriented design, and will invite college professors to give private lessons to the stylists of the crew.So he only needs to give the stylist an inspiration for the supporting role and let them complete it slowly.

Qin Yan is not superstitious about Feng Shui like the directors in Hong Kong City and Taicheng City. After a simple opening ceremony, he directly entered the shooting stage.

In the first scene, Qin Yan still chose the first scene in the development of the plot——Han Yuanbin listening to a book in a restaurant.

Han Yuanbin is the hero of "Big Dream Jianghu", and also the role played by Xie Beiyang.At the age of eighteen, I don't know people's hearts.

At this time, a storyteller was standing on the stage, the gavel fell from his hand, and the whole restaurant fell silent instantly. He began to talk about the rumors about Jianghu:

"It is said that there are eight sects in this world, four of which are good and four evil. For decades, the disputes in the world have never stopped. Today I will talk to you about the legendary Xie Wuya story..."

"By the way, Xie Wuya, a son of a rich family who has been passed down for nine generations, once went to the West Mountain to play, but the bandits..."

In just a few words, the storyteller explained the situation of the whole rivers and lakes very clearly, which aroused the applause of the entire tavern.

The lens of the camera moved slowly on the rail frame, and the scene shifted to Han Yuanbin who was listening to a book.

Listening to the storyteller's story, Han Yuanbin blushed and clapped vigorously. It could be seen that he was very excited.

Next to Han Yuanbin stood two extras, who were his attendants.Han Yuanbin's face was full of excitement, and he ordered without looking back: "Well said, you should be rewarded."

The entourage at the side immediately took out the money from his body and sent it to the storyteller.

The first act can be regarded as an explanation of the background of the whole world and Han Yuanbin's character.

After Han Yuanbin got up from the wine table and left, this scene was officially finished.After Qin Yan yelled "Cut", everyone broke away from the shooting.

After all, this was the first scene, and everyone ran to Qin Yan, wanting to see if the first scene could pass smoothly.

Qin Yan watched the picture he just took several times over and over again.

There are two main characters in the scene just now, the first is the first storyteller.

Every move and every word of this old gentleman shows the charm of storytelling, because this old gentleman is a professional storyteller

The craft of storytelling is also being lost, and it is not easy to find such a storyteller who can speak various languages.

Qin Yan had inquired everywhere in Pingcheng before but couldn't find anything, so he ran all the way to Jincheng, and finally found a storyteller who met his requirements.

Because it was a genuine performance, and the old man had been telling stories on stage for decades, there was nothing to criticize about his performance.

As for Xie Beiyang's scene just now, it is not too difficult in terms of acting skills, otherwise Qin Yan would not have chosen this scene as the opening scene.

But Qin Yan is checking carefully alone, because he needs to see if Xie Beiyang is acting
