Perfect Superstar

"Crack!"

Although the sudden voice was not loud, Zhao Haichao, who had just slapped his left palm, shuddered subconsciously, his whole body froze, and his face flushed with shame.

In the afternoon, the filming location was in a roadside wine shop. This scene is very important. It is the starting point for Lin Pingzhi, one of the main supporting roles, to meet Yue Lingshan for the first time. Therefore, there are many scenes.

As the actor of Lin Pingzhi, Zhao Haichao had eaten more than a dozen NGs in his first fight scene!

Although it is normal for an actor to be NG, and even the top celebrities will inevitably make mistakes, but for Zhao Haichao, who is determined to shoot this role well, a dozen NGs are undoubtedly not a small setback.

"Your hand movements must be clean and tidy..."

Lu Chen stood up from the director's chair, walked quickly to the front of several actors, and gestured with his hands: "The jumping movement just now passed, but the palm movement was slow, which made the connection of moves not smooth enough. It just felt so stiff…”

Zhao Haichao suppressed the impatience in his heart, listened carefully to Lu Chen's explanation, tried hard to memorize and understand, and at the same time danced and imitated, but the movements seemed a little funny.

Zhao Haichao has also filmed action scenes before, but the moves are very simple, nothing more than two or three punches and kicks to get it done, and the post-production can be accelerated and special effects will be OK.

"Swordsman" is completely different. This is a new martial arts movie that pioneered the genre. It is completely different from action movies and the popular martial arts dramas in Hong Kong in the 1980s. The essential difference lies in the martial arts scenes.

The martial arts in "Swordsman" is extremely demanding!

After winning the role of Lin Pingzhi, Zhao Haichao had nearly two months of basic training in the Lujia class, and he thought he had mastered some of the key points, but when he actually started filming, he realized that he was still not prepared enough , unable to completely let go of his hands and feet in front of the camera.

"Brother Yong, let's demonstrate..."

After patiently explaining the essentials of the movements, Lu Chen called Wan Yong over.

In the first big movie of "Swordsman", Lu Chen acted as the actor and action director, so he directed the whole martial arts show in the afternoon, and Wan Yong, the leader of Lu's class, was the martial arts instructor.

Wan Yong nodded, and the opponent who replaced Zhao Haichao faced Lu Chen.

All eyes were on the two of them, and Zhao Haichao couldn't take his eyes off them, for fear of missing any details.

"Lighting...camera...actor preparation..."

"action!"

Although it was just a demonstration and teaching, it was still carried out according to the regular shooting. After the sound of the board hitting, Wan Yong looked at Lu Chen with contemptuous eyes, and sneered: "Fuwei Escort Bureau? I have never heard of it! What is that for? "

Wan Yong used to be a soldier. After retiring from the army, he worked as a security coach in a club. Later, he was discovered by Lu Chen to be the head of the Lu family class. He didn't have any acting experience at first.

But as the saying goes, practice makes perfect, Lu Jiaban became famous in the industry through "A Chinese Ghost Story", and later participated in the filming of "My Love from the Star", and hired several times outside, gradually accumulating a lot of experience.

Wan Yong is no exception. He recites a few lines in a decent way, which reflects the character's fierce temperament very well.

Lu Chen jumped up and shouted, "Specially for beating puppies!"

The next moment, he struck out with his left palm, and before he could get used to the technique, his right palm had already pierced through the bottom of his left palm, what he used was the move "The Universe in the Clouds", his movements were as graceful and free as flowing clouds and flowing water.

"Little Huadan still has a few tricks!"

Wan Yong's eyes were fixed, and he swung his left hand to block Lu Chen's right palm, while his left hand quickly grabbed Lu Chen's shoulder.

Lu Chen immediately lowered his right shoulder, and punched out with his left hand, powerful and powerful.

Wan Yong hastily turned his head to avoid it, but he didn't expect Lu Chen's left fist to open suddenly, and the fist turned into a palm instantly, and the direct blow turned into a sweep, and the "Looking at the Flower in the Mist" slapped him heavily on the face.

In fact, there is no real fan, but Wan Yong's whole head was slapped aside as if struck by lightning,

"Turning from shame to anger", he kicked Lu Chen fiercely, but Lu Chen turned around and kicked back.

Several actors around including Zhao Haichao, as well as many extras who played passers-by and crew members were thrilled to watch. They really didn't know before that the martial arts movies of martial arts were filmed like this!

Few of the people present were laymen, and some of them knew the shooting of action movies. Although the punches and kicks on the screen are full of power, they are basically all processed by special effects and sound effects. The real shooting process is actually very boring and completely fixed. standardized pattern routines.

The sparring practiced by Lu Chen and Wan Yong, although not very fast, gave people the impression that it was not only smooth and natural, powerful, but also had an artistic sense of rhythm, which made people pleasing to the eye and even excited.

In particular, Lu Chen swung his fist with his fist, and it felt as if he could blow up his opponent with one punch. Normal shooting would have such an effect, and with the addition of editing, modification and special effects in the later stage, what would it be like? outstanding?

According to the setting of the script, in the first part of "Swordsman" "Sword Out of Huashan", Lin Pingzhi is just a small character, belonging to the third and fourth ranks of the rivers and lakes, and he is not considered a master at all.

So what kind of excitement will the protagonists who will appear on the stage later perform?

It's really exciting!

Zhao Haichao clenched his fists involuntarily, his determination has never been as firm as it is at this moment.

Determination to play this role well.

"alright…"

Lu Chen withdrew his fists, called Zhao Haichao and his opponent to the monitor, and asked the camera assistant to replay the shot just now: "You practice against each other, and then reshoot when you meet the requirements."

Zhao Haichao nodded vigorously.

Lu Chen said to the others: "Everyone rest for half an hour, and try to finish shooting this group of shots in the afternoon."

The atmosphere at the scene immediately relaxed.

Zhao Haichao and his temporary partner ran to the side and continued to practice together. Wan Yong glanced at them, hesitated and said to Lu Chen, "How about a substitute?"

If Zhao Haichao was replaced by members of the Lu family, these martial arts scenes had already been filmed.

Lu Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "No need for now, his understanding is still very good, give him some time."

In order to catch up with the schedule, time is very precious for "Swordsman", but for Lu Chen, it is completely worthwhile and more meaningful to spend some time cultivating a potential rookie actor.

Lu Chen's filming of "Swordsman" is part of the martial arts big IP project, and the significance of the martial arts big IP project is not to make money for himself, but to push the martial arts culture to the market and to the whole world!

This may be the meaning of his future life!

To achieve such an ambitious goal, relying solely on him and the Lu family's strength is far from enough.
