The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 413
Everything that the "Taken 23" crew needs to prepare is almost done.

Some of the things McCain said during his speech were nothing more than a sudden accident to Lee Sung Yew and Warner.

Neither side took it to heart.

Some redneck netizens attacked "Taken 23" and Warner, but they didn't get any feedback, which made them feel like they were hitting cotton with their fists.

Under such circumstances, the matter gradually cooled down.

However, Li Shengyao is very clear that as the general election in Magnesium is getting closer and the debate between McCain and Obama is getting more and more intense, there should be a lot of nonsense in the future.

He quickly convened an internal meeting of the film crew and the Chinese family members, asking everyone to be cautious in their words and deeds, especially when facing reporters, and must not accept interviews to avoid any accidents.

After making sure everyone listens to it.

2008年2月25日上午9点，在土鸡一处酒店大厅，《飓风营救23》剧组确定开机。

The actors and field workers were not affected by McCain's words, and everyone had expectations in their eyes.

Li Shengyao was originally worried that the previous incident would affect everyone's mentality, so he asked his assistant to prepare a testimonial, intending to use chicken soup to motivate everyone, but at this time, everyone was in good spirits, so he didn't say anything more.

After taking the microphone handed over by the assistant director, Li Shengyao said directly, "Turn on."

Amid applause, "Taken 23" officially started.

The main plot of "Taken 2" takes place in Tuji, and a small part of the plot takes place in Magnesia.

The plot of "Taken 3" is set in Magnesia.

The plot of the second part is that the male protagonist goes to the chicken to perform a task, and invites his ex-wife and children to travel in the chicken by the way.

As a result, the leader of the gang he killed in the first film came from a large family in Albania, and the leader's father was also the helm of this large family.

The old father wanted to avenge his son, so he led a group of gangsters to investigate the actor. They got the whereabouts of the actor and rushed to Tuji from Albania with weapons. He wanted to catch the actor's family and give him His son was buried with him.

At first the male protagonist and his ex-wife were arrested, then the male protagonist cooperated with his daughter and successfully escaped, but his ex-wife was still in the hands of the enemy, so he settled his daughter first, and then went to rescue his ex-wife.

In other words, the second part of "Taken" should be regarded as "rescuing" the ex-wife.

The style is still the same as the first one, and the male protagonists are killed all the way.

However, compared with the first part, "Taken 2" has two very exciting plots.

The first is that after the male protagonist is caught, he cooperates with his daughter, uses the sound of bombs to measure the distance between himself and his daughter, asks his daughter to find him, and gives him a pistol, allowing him to escape successfully.

The second place is that after the male protagonist was arrested, he kept listening to the surrounding voices and reciting the numbers silently. He successfully memorized the place where the gang members parked for the first time, which is the lair of the best boss.

These two points are what makes "Taken 2" more exciting than the first one, showing the wisdom and courage of the hero.

Regarding the filming of these two plots, it is natural to take it seriously.

After discussing with the assistant directors, Lee Sung Yew decided to start with the easier ones and then the more difficult ones. First shoot simple literary dramas, let the actors find their way, and then shoot some more difficult scenes. This should help improve the shooting efficiency.

In the first scene after starting the machine today, the hero completed the task.

Satisfied with his work, several bosses gave him an envelope with money.

The male lead smiled happily when he saw the money inside.

This scene is relatively simple, the only difficulty is the last trace of the actor's smile.

This is not Xiao Ming's evil smile, nor is it Si Nuo's mysterious smile while sitting on the hospital bed.

It's a kind of smile that the workers get paid after hard work, relieved, satisfied, and have some emotion and yearning.

The hero of "Taken" lives alone, and he doesn't really need money himself.

He makes more money because he wants to compensate his daughter.

The make-up artist put on makeup for Cheng Long and a few extras, while Li Shengyao walked in the lobby and walked alone. After the actors finished their makeup, he immediately called the actors, the lighting engineer, and the photographer to come over, and then told the actors how to move. Teachers and photographers make requests and tell them what kind of effect they need.

He walked four times in a row, and when the actors understood, he stepped aside, and then watched Cheng Long rehearse with the extras.

In the past, Lee Sheng Yew's filming was not like this. When he was in the mainland, he would directly explain the requirements of the actors, and then sit down to rest. If the actors did not perform correctly, they would correct them.

However, the high efficiency of "The Hangover" made him try to film like a Hollywood studio, where the director moves first, the actors rehearse, and then film.

This scene is relatively simple, the main difficulty is whether Cheng Long can perfectly express that smile in the end.

The actors finished it after rehearsing for half an hour, and there were basically no problems.

Then the filming officially started.

Li Shengyao sat behind the director's monitor, quietly watching the actors perform.

This is the first scene. The temporary extras obviously know Cheng Long. When facing the camera, their amateurishness is shown. As supporting actors, their eyes are too focused and bright.

If it is not necessary, it is best not to be too conspicuous for such supporting roles without lines, especially not to have too many eye scenes.

After all, the focus is on the protagonist.

After the filming ended, Li Shengyao pointed out this point immediately and asked several extras to adjust their status.

After a while, the second shot began.

Compared with the first time, the eyes of several group performers are much more natural this time, and they are still willing to learn and correct.

Cheng Long caught the scene and waved goodbye to several bosses. After the bosses left, he opened the envelope, revealing a small opening, pulled out a small half of a stack of banknotes, and then counted.

This part reflects the cautiousness of the hero, he did not pour out all the money.

After counting and confirming that it was correct, the hero pursed his lips and smiled.

Holding the envelope in his hand, he was thinking about what gifts the money could buy his daughter.

Cheng Long handled everything well before, but when he laughed at the end, he subconsciously squinted his eyes, and the squinting action preceded the smile.

Gives people a feeling of being funny.

This is Cheng Long's previous filming habit, and he often acts like this in Kung Fu comedies.

Li Shengyao didn't say much, but told Cheng Long calmly.

"Give me five minutes."

Cheng Long nodded, then found a small mirror, and practiced in front of the mirror.

Seven or eight minutes later, Cheng Long didn't know how many expressions he made. He stood up and said that he was fine.

After a while, the performance started. Cheng Long's condition was much better this time. The performance was a little stiff, but his expression was correct.

"Very well, let's come again."

Cheng Long is in good condition, he has indeed taken it easy recently.

Lee Sung Yew looked forward to the next filming even more.

Reviewed in the previous chapter.

Absolutely no rustling.
