After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn

Counting his two lifetimes, it was the first time Tao Mu went to Africa.There are not many traces of modernization on the vast grassland, and the setting sun hangs precariously on the horizon, reflecting half of the sky and the surrounding fields into a piece of orange red.On the big tree in the distance, you can still see leopard coiled on the branch.Looking far away, I feel more and more open.

The filming location of the crew was in an abandoned factory.The props group, the lighting group and the camera group are setting up the shooting scene.Tao Mu, who had already done the modeling, pulled the stunt performer who was going to act later, carefully thinking about the scene to be filmed later.Cheng Baodong rolled the script into a barrel shape, walked up to Tao Mu, pulled Tao Mu to sit on the prop box, and told Tao Mu about the play with a serious face.

"The Sword of the King of Soldiers Unsheathed" tells the story of several special forces in the TV series "The King of Soldiers" who went abroad for the first time.Although in the entire script, the only elements related to "The King of Soldiers" are the names of the leading actor and a few supporting actors, but as long as the movie is released under the banner of "The King of Soldiers", there will inevitably be good people who put the two works together Compare.Cheng Baodong has shame, and of course he doesn't want someone to say that the TV series is better than the movie.What's more, the filming cost of this movie has exceeded [-] million.There are few domestic films with such a huge investment.Cheng Baodong also didn't want to be criticized as a director who didn't deserve the resources and couldn't control such a huge crew after the movie came out.So this time directing the film, Cheng Baodong is also going to use his best efforts.

Not to mention Cheng Baodong's character and temperament, but in terms of professional ability, Cheng Baodong is definitely one of the best directors of commercial films in the domestic entertainment industry.Tao Mu also benefited a lot from him being able to seriously tell plays to Tao Mu.

Because the later scene involves the plot of blasting, the blasting team is constantly testing on the side.Explosions sounded one after another, and Cheng Baodong, who was narrating the play to Tao Mu, suddenly said with emotion: "I just like making commercial films. Many people think that the films I make have no connotation. In fact, whatever connotation a commercial film needs, cool is enough."

Cheng Baodong said that since he was a child he liked watching explosions.When I watched Hollywood blockbusters before, a group of foreigners played the heroes.The adrenaline stimulated by various blasting scenes is unnecessary.There are also Xiangcheng movies, and the various gun battle scenes are also very eye-catching.On the other hand, the movies in the mainland are either bound feet or some kind of scar literature. The actors, regardless of gender, always speak dirty dialects.It's just tiresome.

When Cheng Baodong said this, he asked Tao Mu: "What about you? Do you prefer to make commercial films or literary films?"

Tao Mu glanced at Cheng Baodong, and said, "As long as the book is good, I like it. But relatively speaking, I still prefer a faster pace."

"That's right!" Cheng Baodong nodded: "I think your current path is very good. In fact, young people with good acting skills should act more in commercial films. Some young people, obviously talented, plunge into literary and artistic films and I can’t get out of the drama. I still feel that I’m quite high-quality. I should regret it when I can’t get a play in the future. There is no distinction between male and female actors, and the prime time is only a few years. If it is wasted, I will never make up for it in the future .Good resources also need popularity. Otherwise, why did the producers and investors choose you as the number one male?"

Cheng Baodong felt that Jingying's current employment direction was a bit off.Obviously, the students' acting skills are not bad, and their appearance is also passable, but because they are too focused on acting skills and literary films, they are not as good as Yan Ying's second-rate students after graduation for a few years.Especially some female students.Cheng Baodong felt a pity looking at it.

Fortunately, this situation improved a lot after Tao Mu entered school.A "Great Wall of Flesh" and a "Fashion" made many sophomores and juniors of Beijing Film Academy familiar in front of the audience, and the resources are gradually improving.This is actually a good thing.Acting is a job that focuses on actual combat.Actors can only hone their acting skills better if they practice more in front of the camera.Working behind closed doors is useless.After a long time, I can't get used to it even in front of the camera.So despite the fact that there are only [-] or [-] students graduating from Jingying every year, there are some who quit the circle every year.

Listening to Cheng Baodong's rambling words, Tao Mu knew that Cheng Baodong intended to show his favor, but he still couldn't let it go, so he smiled in his heart.

Suddenly, a scene reporter came over and said that the set had been set up.The blasting team and stuntmen tested it several times and it was fine.Let Tao Mu himself go to familiarize himself with the position.

Tao Mu got up, followed the recorder into the set, and took the submachine gun handed over by the props team. The demolitionist and the martial arts teacher surrounded Tao Mu, telling him about his position and movements later.

This scene is about the details of the actor played by Tao Mu and several other special forces sneaking into the enemy's base camp to rescue the hostages.There are not many lines, mainly play.All kinds of gun fights and blasting shots.Playing against Tao Mu were several strong foreign men who were two meters tall.The chest muscles are bulging, and the arms are as thick as Tao Mu's thighs when raised.The visual contrast is particularly striking.Therefore, Cheng Baodong asked that the fighting scenes later must highlight the smooth fighting of special forces and kill with one blow.It is required that Tao Mu's movements must be strong and must not be limp.

"If it doesn't work, just fight. Punch to the flesh!" Cheng Baodong looked at Tao Mu's slender figure in comparison with the martial arts actors, and said seriously.

Although Tao Mu was also a martial artist, the stuntmen recruited by the crew were all boxers.From Cheng Baodong's point of view, compared with these stunt performers, Tao Mu's basic skills are nothing but airs.So he asked Tao Mu to really fight while filming.This is for the pursuit of shooting effect.

Tao Mu frowned slightly.

"Don't worry, all the staff of our crew have signed confidentiality contracts." Cheng Baodong took a look at Tao Mu and added.Afraid that Tao Mu would be afraid of his image and would not really fight.After all, this kid has a lot of deep hearts in the city, and the two of them still have a grudge.In case Tao Mu privately speculates that he wants to take this opportunity to discredit Tao Mu, under the banner of pursuing the shooting effect, to signal Tao Mu to really fight, and then find someone to reveal that Tao Mu is playing big names on the set to bully stuntmen.It is inevitable to have such concerns.

Cheng Baodong felt that he really wanted the shooting effect to be good, so he was not afraid to tell Tao Mu clearly: "Didn't the camera crew record the behind-the-scenes of the shooting. This is also evidence."

With these words, the originally noisy studio suddenly became quiet.Everyone looked over at the same time.

The stuntman standing next to him didn't speak Chinese very well, and his face was full of bewilderment.

Tao Mu was slightly taken aback.He didn't expect Cheng Baodong to say that.I didn't think of this just now, but I just thought that if he really fought, he could resist a few tricks of the stuntman.After being reminded by Cheng Baodong, he understood instead.It turned out that Cheng Baodong meant to let him fight for real and let the stunt performers put in more effort.

"Since it's for the shooting effect, then it's really fighting. Otherwise, in the camera, there must be a difference." Tao Mu is quite confident in his fighting skills.After all, he grew up in the alleys since he was a child.After that, I trained in the army for so long, and also trained with the special forces for several months.Physical fitness is there, even if it is not as good as boxing, it will not be much worse.

After all, the stuntman in front of him was just punching, not black boxing.

Tao Mu knew that the reason why Cheng Baodong gave such instructions was that on the one hand he was not confident in his martial arts skills, and on the other hand he was afraid that the stuntman would hurt him, so it would be difficult to explain to the Li family and delay the filming.But everyone is for filming. If there are too many scruples, this scene will not be able to be filmed.

Tao Mu looked at the special actor, patted the other actor on the shoulder, and said in English: "You really hit too."

Cheng Baodong's expression changed: "Isn't it necessary?"

"It's okay!" Tao Mu waved his hand calmly: "Go one way first and try."

Cheng Baodong's face was not very good-looking, but he waved his hand.The five sets of cameras are ready and the lights are ready.The field recorder took the field record card and slapped it in front of the camera.Camera No. [-] slowly advances, Tao Mu is holding a pistol and hiding behind the pillar bunker, panting slightly, and various gunshots can be heard in his ears.

Tao Mu held a pistol in his hand and kept fighting back under the cover of the cover. After firing a few shots, he quickly rolled and rushed into the door behind the door.Just this one action made Cheng Baodong's eyes shine. Regardless of the accuracy of Tao Mu's shots, the appearance of the action alone can be regarded as a standard textbook.

Unlike many Xiangcheng shootout movies, where the hero has endless ammunition, after Tao Mu changed the magazine with one hand twice, the submachine gun ran out of ammo very quickly.Tao Mu met the thug played by a stunt actor, and a fist-to-body fight followed.Tao Mu pressed down the stuntman's arm with his backhand, and a cross clamp imprisoned the stuntman's neck.The stuntman's other hand clenched into a fist and slammed into Tao Mu's right leg.However, the actor played by Tao Mu kicked his chin and passed out.

"Ka!" Cheng Baodong looked at Ka in time, reluctantly moved his eyes away from the monitor, and looked at Tao Mu on the set.He found that it was not without reason that Tao Mu became so popular in just two or three years.

Not to mention the beautiful play, the most important thing is the amazing expressiveness in front of the camera.In fact, the real fighting nirvana is far less beautiful than the movies show.Many actions need to be entangled together, the scene is not only awkward, but also slightly embarrassing.However, Tao Mu has a talent for showing off skills in this respect.Even Shi Shigu's movements, which are so embarrassing to outsiders, can still be beautiful and pleasing to the eye.And there is a strong evil spirit in every gesture, like a vigorous leopard hunting.Even in the messy studio, Cheng Baodong can feel a strong visual shock, not to mention the effect of the film after post-editing.

It was precisely because of this that Cheng Baodong rarely asked, "Are you okay?"

Tao Mu's face turned a little blue, he let go of the stuntman, and rubbed his calf.He just asked the stuntman to do it for real, and the stuntman was pretty solid.Those blows hurt him so much.Tao Mu felt that his calf must be bruised.

However, the X that I have pretended to be, even if I am kneeling, I still have to pretend it.What's more, Tao Mu, who has a ton of idol burden, can't kneel.He just waved his hand calmly, indicating that he was fine.Cheng Baodong is also a real person, seeing Tao Mu's normal face, he believed it.So I called the crew to continue filming the next few scenes—all fight scenes.

Tao Mu: "..."
