Chapter 131 Jingwu Heroes, boot up
The award ceremony of the Huabiao Award is scheduled on the last day of July.
No matter how dismissive those fans are, but you want their brother to be shortlisted and win a prize?
I estimate that the draft can be completed in the first half of the year without duplicates!
After all, it is the official third award, and the prestige is still there. This is destined to be a highly anticipated event.
As one of the most dazzling names on the shortlist, Yang Rui has naturally become the focus of heated discussion.
Nineteen-year-old directors are already a rare species. If they come home with a few Huabiao trophies... it will probably be a miracle in the entire history of China Entertainment!
It’s hard to say whether it will never happen, but it is definitely unprecedented.
This is a rising supernova!
For a time, everyone's minds became active.
Yang Rui, who is at the center of public opinion, has no intention of paying attention to these commotions because the preparations for "Fist of Heroes" are almost completed and filming is about to begin.
This film was scheduled to be released during the National Day, so the schedule may be tighter than "Those Years", so Yang Rui simply applied for the editing team to work with him and edit while filming to save time.
Ding Lan directly approved the application without saying anything. Anyway, no matter what Yang Rui's request is now, as long as it is not excessive, it will be granted.
She knew very well that Jing Yong had actually lost the gambling agreement by default. The one billion mark was a joke to Yang Rui, and the dust would probably be settled once "Those Years" came out at the box office.
Coupled with Jingtian's little thoughts...it's hard to say who owns this company in the end.
Maybe in another ten years, she will have to call him Director Yang!
well.
Before filming officially started, Yang Rui also finalized the final starring lineup.
Chen Zhen, Huo Ting'en and Fujita Tsuyoshi had already decided on it, and Ding Lan finally gave the role of Mitsuko Yamada to Liu Shishi.
It’s easy to understand Ding Lan’s thoughts as the wealth should not flow to outsiders.
Yang Rui was a little worried about being cast in the show at first, but after seeing the little lion's audition photos, he approved of the casting.
The seventeen-year-old Liu Shishi is just as good as the original in terms of appearance and purity.
The only thing that worries me is those eyes... Well, what can I do? I'll adjust it slowly when the time comes!
For the role of Fumio Funakoshi, Yang Rui still cast Yasuaki Kurata in the original version.
After all, this Oriental martial artist is really good at fighting, and his performance in the original version was also quite impressive...
Of course, the main reason is that it’s cheap!
The glory of kung fu movies has gone forever. This Japanese martial artist has long been in a state of semi-retirement. As soon as he heard someone offered him a role, he agreed without even asking for a salary.
What surprised Yang Rui the most was the actor who played the roast chicken "Xiaohong".
Because Andy Lau also participated in this film, he had to leave this supporting role.
Finally, Liu Dehua reported a name that surprised him - Li Zi!
TVB Hua Dan, Little Stutter in "Young and Dangerous", Zhao Min in the drama version of "Yi Tian", Zhou Zhiruo in the movie version of "Yi Tian", Yu Ying in "The Golden Branch"...
Yang Rui didn't remember much about this person, he only remembered that she was indeed very beautiful, and her two pear holes when she smiled were so sweet.
The last news I saw about her in her previous life was that she was transferred from the entertainment channel to the financial section, and she became a real rich lady.
Why would Andy recommend her?
He couldn't understand or guess, so Yang Rui didn't bother to ask.
Anyway, this girl's beauty is more than enough to play an oiran. It's a TVB production, and the lower limit of her professional ability is guaranteed, so you can rest assured.
Yang Rui did not forget about Wang Zhi, and assigned her the role of a junior sister. Although her role was very small, Yang Rui gave her two wonderful martial arts scenes in the only time she had to play.
After reading the script arrangement, Wang Zhi readily accepted the role.
As she aims to become a real actor, she keeps in mind a lesson - there are no small roles, only small actors.
The dazzlingness of a character is not directly related to the length of the scene. A great actor can stun the screen in just one moment.
Just like Anthony Hopkins, if you give him sixteen minutes of playing time, you can win the Oscar.
On the other hand, this kind of cold treatment from a minor supporting role actually made her feel inexplicably at ease.
She is not afraid of hard work, but she is afraid of being given the leading role right from the start. After all... she has met too many Chongzhi directors before.
Several other supporting roles were basically divided up by people recommended by investors.
Anyway, they were just green leaves, and Yang Rui didn't interfere too much. After all, eating alone is a taboo in the industry.
He just made a rule in advance: he only accepts those who are willing to act seriously, and those who like to put on airs and fish in the water, get away as far as they can!
It turned out that some people thought this rule was a bit overbearing, and many people wanted their Xiaomi to appear in the film. For this reason, some people even called Ding Lan directly to complain...
Once the nomination list for the Huabiao Awards came out, these complaints disappeared automatically.
On July 25, after the final intensive preparations, the opening ceremony of "Fist of Heroes" was held at the Pearl Film and Television Park.
The story stage of the film takes place in Mingzhu City in the old era. This film and television city with the style of the Republic of China is naturally the best choice.
The original version of Earth chose Jinmen as the filming location for the entire episode. I don’t know if it was to save money or to pay tribute to Huo Yuanjia’s birthplace?
Anyway, after Yang Rui inspected the Pearl Film and Television Park, he felt that some scenes here were more suitable than the original work.
In addition, for some scenes outside Mingzhu City, you can go to the nearby Fengyun Film and Television City in Qingfeng. The buildings and scenery there are basically satisfactory.
After the crew took turns to burn incense and pray in a circle, the opening ceremony ended and "Fist of Heroes" officially entered the filming process.
Because the subject matter of the film is somewhat controversial, Yang Rui simply didn't bother to hold a press conference and just filmed it without any nonsense.
After filming is completed and released, the good or bad will naturally be revealed.
According to the original flow of the film, the first set of scenes should have taken place in Xiaoli's university, but a suitable filming location could not be found here, so Yang Rui postponed it to Qingfeng to complete the filming.
The first scene that started today was a head-to-head martial arts scene - the duel between Chen Zhen and Huo Ting'en!
This is a very complicated but exciting martial arts drama, and Yang Rui made this choice after careful consideration.
First of all, it can set the tone for the crew: Did you see that I am working so hard as a director? Are you embarrassed to stand in the water? Work hard for me!
Secondly, this scene will definitely have to be done countless times anyway, which will allow the crew to get familiar with each other.
After finishing this scene, the crew should be able to enter the fast lane, and shooting other scenes will naturally be much easier!
In the spacious courtyard of "Fist of Fury", the crew was busy preparing.
The scenery is being set, the camera is being adjusted, the two protagonists are doing their makeup, and several director assistants are taking the time to tell the actors about the drama...
After all preparations were completed, Yang Rui and Zhao Ming walked to the center of the small courtyard.
All the "fellow disciples" immediately cheered up and stood in their positions.
The other actors who gathered around to watch the show also held their breath, waiting for that moment to arrive.
Xiao Yang, who was brought in to train as an assistant director, raised the script tube as a trumpet.
"Unrelated personnel exit the stage, and the actors take their places."
"The first shot of the first scene of "Fist of Heroes" begins!"
Snapped!
Chapter completed!
