[Falcon] is a typical police drama. The genre is similar to the later [Infernal Affairs]. They both tell the story of a young and promising police officer who is assigned to work as an undercover agent inside a drug trafficking leader. But in this case
Family, friendship, and love are added to it, making the whole story more full.
The protagonist of the new drama is Andy Lau, who plays the role of Jiang Dawei, and the newly-minted actress Chen Miner (later Liu Qizhi's wife) plays his girlfriend Wang Jiaqi. However, TVB is still worried that the appeal of these two people is not enough, so they invited singers Ip Tak-han and Kwan Ju-ying to join the show with high salaries.
, and also recruited veteran actors Liu Zhaoming, Qin Pei, and Zheng Zeshi to play the supporting roles, making this new drama more attractive.
The addition of Feng Yifeng did not bring any big changes to the crew's filming. After all, he was just a deputy martial arts instructor, and there were two other martial arts instructors above him. Anyone could see that Feng Yifeng was following them.
What he learns is, at best, a role in assisting. Feng Yifeng knows his own business, and he is good at kung fu. But in the play, he
Fighting moves cannot be mastered during martial arts training. Another thing is that this drama is a police drama. It is not the kind of movie where you hold a sword and chop for a few minutes, and then you are pulled by Wia to fly into the sky and escape, and finally vomit three liters of blood.
It’s a martial arts film where the winner is decided. The fights are designed to be simple and direct so that the audience won’t find them too exaggerated.
In a police film, what scares the actors the most is not the action and fighting that they are not familiar with, but the dangerous scenes such as car chases, crashes, rollovers, explosions, and falls from high altitudes. But these are essential for a police film.
There are few selling points to attract the audience. Which audience would watch a police movie that has more talk than action from beginning to end, and no hot scenes at all?
The scenes described above are all designed and completed by Wu Zhi. Of course, Wu Zhi cannot do it himself. This depends on dragon and tiger martial arts masters and professional stand-ins.
Today's technology is not as advanced and perfect as that of later generations. As far as Feng Yifeng knows, when shooting car chase scenes, the leading actors usually do not appear in person. Those who sit in the car and race are professionally trained stand-ins. Their bodies are protected.
There is often only one safer than
A stronger safety helmet, the rest is nothing. It relies on the stand-in to "execute the life" by oneself. It must not only complete the shooting requirements of martial arts or action guidance, but also protect one's own safety. This is a rare thing.
So the stuntmen at that time all had to fight for their lives.
Stand-ins focus on their own abilities and skills, but some shots cannot be foolproof just by relying on technology, such as scenes of shooting, blasting, and falling from high altitudes.
There are reactive bombs when shooting. As long as you press the button, the reactive bombs will explode, and you can create the scene of being shot. But today's reactive bombs are not as safe as future generations, and they may destroy the lining worn by the actor at any time.
Exploded together, causing direct damage to the actors. Some guns
Combat scenes will be conducted indoors or among various obstacles, which will test the actor's reaction ability. Because the reactive bombs are buried near the actor's head and body, the actor may be shot at any time when he cannot react.
Scratches caused by sawdust and stone chips when the reactive bomb exploded.
Today's blasting scenes use real gunpowder. Every blasting location has to be set by professional blasters to determine the amount of gunpowder and the blasting range. The amount of gunpowder can't be too much, and it can't be too little. If it's too much, what will happen to the actors?
It will be dangerous. If it is less, the effect will not be achieved, and it will need to be reworked.
Shooting costs money and time. So every time when shooting such a scene, the entire crew is very nervous from top to bottom. The director and the director will carefully check every explosive point and inquire about the amount of gunpowder used to ensure that all crew members
Only after the blasting site is safely evacuated will the blaster be powered on and exploded.
The gunpowder used for blasting must be approved by the police before it can be purchased, and the amount purchased is generally not too large. In the company, there are dedicated personnel responsible for management, and each use must be approved and signed before it can be used.
It is important to use and store the gunpowder. No one can afford the responsibility for the accidental loss of gunpowder.
Finally, there is the shot of falling from a high altitude. Basically few actors dare to take part in this kind of shot (people like Jackie Chan who are originally martial artists go out because they have been in this industry since the beginning. Jingjiaban, Yuanjiaban, Hongjiaban
, Yuan Jiaban and Liu Jiaban, these people practiced this. At that time, most of the racing, blasting and high-altitude jumping off buildings scenes in the movies were completed by these martial arts masters as stand-ins).
Stand in to complete the last jump. Because there are no powerful computer stunts in later generations. Jumping from several floors to a height of more than ten meters, there is only a layer of cardboard boxes and thin cushions below. You may be injured or killed at any time.
Possibility. No matter which film and television company it is, they are afraid of hurting the actors themselves by shooting such dangerous scenes, which will seriously hinder the filming progress of the film and cause the company to lose a lot of money.
Feng Yifeng learned from two martial arts masters, Xu Youlin and Huang Zhiqiang, that a martial arts master can do more than just design a few fighting moves. Otherwise, there are so many martial arts schools and martial arts masters in Hong Kong, how many martial arts masters can really become a martial arts master or become famous?
many
Shao? Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan, the two most famous martial arts actors and actresses in Hong Kong, have been in this industry for more than ten years. They have been Bruce Lee's stunt doubles, and they have to wear scars all over their bodies that make them miserable.
for today’s achievements.
Fortunately, Feng Yifeng is not the kind of arrogant person. He never thinks that he is a genius. He is able to draw inferences from one instance and has a photographic memory. He is courteous and courteous on the set and treats others with sincerity, which quickly won the hearts of Xu Youlin and Huang Zhiqiang.
The recognition and appreciation of these two martial arts commanders gave them some common sense about martial arts and some of their own unique insights.
They knew that Feng Yifeng had a background and wanted to have a relationship with him. However, this was in line with Feng Yifeng's intention. What he lacked now was systematic study and understanding.
Now with senior guidance and hands-on operation, Feng Yifeng quickly understood and became familiar with many tricks.
A newcomer, Wu Zhi, said that everyone, including his friend Andy Lau, was a little worried. The information currently circulating in the company is that Feng Yifeng is the nephew of Li Xiaohe and his wife, and was specially arranged to study at Wireless Wireless to prepare for a high position in the future. Uncle Shao Liu
The relationship with the Li family, due to Feng Yifeng's sudden joining, no longer had the harmonious and sincere cooperation between them in the previous life.
Things are changing at the top level of TVB. Some well-informed people have already received the news that after the battle for the position of production director, another high-level position of TVB - director of production resources department (later Le Yiling)
Only by holding this position can I be qualified to work with Chen Zhiyun and Zeng Li
The two families are fighting for it. This position is to control the management of all contracted artists of the entire wireless network. The artists' filming, commercial shooting, contract signing, contract renewal, stage appearances and other large and small matters are all under his management.
, it can be said that he has a high position of authority, and no one dares to offend him easily.
Li Xiao and his wife chose their brother-in-law Li Rongkang to take over, so that she can hold the most important resources of TVB in her hands. Even if several of TVB's current managers are from Shao Liushu, Li Xiao and his wife can take advantage of the huge talent pool.
resources to offset the disadvantage.
But is Uncle Shao an easy person to get along with? Definitely not. Although he doesn't want to get into trouble with the Li family and end up being benefited by outsiders. But now he has been forced into a corner. If he doesn't fight back, he will not be a famous actor.
Shao Laoliu, who has been in business for decades. He took action immediately. After a brief meeting with the board of directors, he
At the meeting, Li Xiao and his wife were caught off guard, and they mobilized shareholders to pass a resolution to hire Gan Guoliang as the director of the Human Resources and Administration Department to suppress it. Even if the board of directors finally gave Li Rongkang the position of director of the Production Resources Department, there would be
If Gan Guoliang checks and balances each other, they can tie again.
The top management is making trouble, and the people below are naturally unstable. All kinds of rumors have long been filled among managers and employees at all levels. Now that Feng Yifeng has been invited back to TVB by Li Xiao and his wife in a high-profile manner, it is better to find it through Wang Tianlin.
That’s a bit intriguing. Everyone knows that Wang Tianlin, Shao Liushu’s number one general,
Why would he be willing to listen to Li Xiaohe's wife's instructions and personally come to retrieve a junior student who has no foundation in TVB? Is it because this junior student is his close disciple? Or is there something between this disciple and Mrs. Li Xiaohe?
Relationship, now Wang Tianlin wants to change his family and join the Li family?
No one knows, no one understands. The person involved, Feng Yifeng, will naturally not tell anyone around him. Li Xiao and his wife want to be friends with Feng Yifeng again, so of course they will not talk nonsense. As for Shao Liushu, who had not made any movement at all, after hearing his subordinates
After the report was made, the person just smiled without any expression at all, and his attitude was very ambiguous.
The strange behavior of the top management made the people below at a loss. Feng Yifeng, an alternative, once again became a strange existence. People on the Li family's side and Shao Liushu's side didn't know his details and were making wild guesses.
, no one wants to offend him because who
They don’t want to be accused by their big boss because they have done stupid things. This leaves Tang Zhenye, who has always hated Feng Yifeng, unable to do anything, because he has been warned by Xiao Sheng not to touch Feng Yifeng, because this is
Toshitaka and his wife ordered the people to be found.
Because of this, Feng Yifeng is now living very comfortably in TVB. If he asks someone about something he doesn't know, no one will push him away or deal with it casually. Just like in the "Falcon" crew, the other two martial artists
He meant that he knew everything and explained everything, but he only needed step-by-step instructions, which made Feng Yifeng feel a little embarrassed and invited the two seniors to dinner many times to express his gratitude.
Li Tiansheng had known for a long time that Feng Yifeng's background was complicated, but he really didn't know that it would be so complicated. Although Li Xiao and his wife did not come to see him in person, they still sent a message to let people pay attention to this young man; Shao Liushu ignored it.
If you haven't heard of it, this is why the entire crew is in awe of Feng Yifeng. No one is willing to offend Feng Yifeng verbally, and in the end they will get a big envelope (dismissal letter).
Fortunately, Feng Yifeng is not the kind of villain, nor is he the kind of bastard who causes trouble for no reason. He is so polite to everyone on the crew, especially to veteran actors such as Ip Tak-han, Lau Siu-ming, Qin Pei, Zheng Zeshi and so on.
Gu, the old man, is more respectful. He is not born with dove eyes towards some newcomers and does not put others in his eyes.
Because of Feng Yifeng's deliberate interaction, he quickly integrated into the crew. People also found that this young boy was not so difficult to get along with. On the contrary, he often got along well with newcomers such as Tony Leung and Stephen Chow. He often talked and laughed in the crew, and gradually became
No matter how cautious he is, Feng Yifeng can finally come to the side of veteran actors and listen to their more acting experience...
