Full-time actor

Chapter 275 [102] "House of Flying Daggers" is completely different from the previous life!

In the first class cabin, in a small space where only one person could lie down, Chen Yu was writing a biography of his character.

By the way, let’s analyze the script of “House of Flying Daggers”!

Of course Chen Yu had seen the movie "House of Flying Daggers" in his previous life. Not to mention this one, he had also seen "Three Guns", "The Great Wall" and "A River of Red" which were the worst movies of Lao Mouzi's life, just for the sake of it. His reputation took a hit, and then...fuck him.

In this comparison, "House of Flying Daggers" is not the worst.

But in fact, last year, "Hero" was already called by many movie fans as the worst film made by Lao Mouzi, with negative reviews; and "House of Flying Daggers" was even worse, and even the subsequent "Manchuria" "The City Ends with Golden Armor" makes people even too lazy to complain.

It’s just that I never expected that there is no worst, only worse. Who would have thought that he could still make unlimited movies like "Three Guns".

It can only be said that everyone overestimated Zhang Yimou's integrity.

During this period, there was only one film, "Ride Alone, Thousands of Miles" with Ken Takakura in 05, which somewhat restored his reputation. He doesn't make any boasts, he doesn't make commercial films, and he is definitely good at making literary films.

None of the commercial films are good.

But, Chen Yu suddenly discovered that the "House of Flying Daggers" script in his hands was completely different from the "House of Flying Daggers" movie he watched in his previous life.

The script is excellent and very well done.

Even when Mei Yanfang was seriously ill, he didn't say that he wanted to replace him, and he was still waiting for her to return.

The role of the eldest sister of the Flying Sword Clan in the previous life was reserved by Zhang Yimou specially for Mei Yanfang; when the project of "House of Flying Daggers" was first established, Zhang Yimou confirmed that she was the first actor, and he even wrote this important role around her. villain role.

Especially the role of the eldest sister of Feidaomen, what kind of thing did Song Dandan play in her previous life? It's not that Bai Yun's acting skills are not good, it's just that this role is really not suitable for her.

……

But unfortunately, the crew still didn't wait.

At least, Chen Yu had a very clear concept in his mind after reading the script.

"This should be because of Mei Yanfang's sudden death!"

"The eldest sister is an extremely beautiful woman who treats others very warmly. She always has a sweet smile on her face."

Moreover, the "eldest sister" not only has an overt line, but also a hidden line: she is the biological mother of the character "little sister".

"But she possesses the unique skill of throwing knives and her hidden weapons are unparalleled in the world!"

That's why the ending of "House of Flying Daggers" seems so abrupt and even confusing.

“I don’t know what kind of effect it will be like in this life!”

But the face is not shown, and the character is cut in two.

In fact, in the original script, Mei Yanfang's character had many roles and had to tie together many plots. She was a big sister with high martial arts skills.

This led to the fact that in the history of Chinese films, "House of Flying Daggers" was the first and only film that was filmed and released as planned without a replacement due to the absence of an actor!

The role of the eldest sister of the Flying Sword Clan is still retained in the official release version of "House of Flying Daggers".

In the later stage of the script, a completely unrecognizable overhaul was carried out.

This role is really good.

In Lao Mouzi's original conception, the role played by Mei Yanfang was as a leader of the Jianghu, who came out to maintain the rules of the Jianghu. She had emotional entanglements among Liu, Captor Chen and the heroine. And when he forgets the rules, he shows up to maintain the rules in the arena.

There was a comment from a previous life that was actually quite spot on: "The moment she appeared, it became Stephen Chow's movie"!

Teacher Song Dandan was excellent in playing the old man, and he was particularly matched with Motoyama.

She is even the final master of the overall situation.

If the film is shot according to the script in Chen Yu's hand, he cannot guarantee how good it will be, but there is still hope that it will surpass "Hero" and even reach the level of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has the core and artistic conception in Chen Yu's heart, but the fighting scenes are really not that brilliant.

It's not that Yuan Heping's martial arts skills are not good, he is an actor.

Fa Ge doesn't have the taste for acting, and he's not good at acting.

As for Chen Yu, he thinks he can work hard on fighting scenes. Mei Yanfang, Zhang Ziyi and even Liu Dehua can use stand-ins, but he plans to do the whole process himself.

At 19 years old, you can give it a try.

It will definitely not work if you are in your 30s.

The most important thing is that Mei Yanfang in the previous life was not able to participate, which is a big regret for this movie. However, Mei Yanfang in this life is still in good health and is preparing for her global concert. Chen Yu will give more advice if everything is fine And take care!

She joined the cast in October, and her role as an actress is second only to Zhang Ziyi's, and in Chen Yu's opinion, her role is very outstanding.

Especially the sentence at the end sublimates the theme.

"For thousands of years, the world has been the world of men, but today I want to say that the world is ours, regardless of gender!"

Domineering and revealing, one sentence can reveal a woman's ambition.

Song Dandan obviously can't handle such a role, so this line is not in the play, only in the script.

Snapped!

Chen Yuanhe wrote the script, making the content seem to overlap with the previous movie, and then the ending took another path of decryption and sublimation.

"Chen Captou: Young and handsome, his sword skills [drawing the knife to cut off the water] are as sharp as flying, and his smile is as bright as the sun.

……

Chen Yu quickly wrote a biography of the character. The image of Chen Captou in his mind became more and more rich and three-dimensional.

His character's identity also has bright and dark sides... Liu Dehua's character Liu Capt, Zhang Ziyi's younger sister, and even Mei Yanfang's eldest sister, these three people also have both bright and dark sides in the play.

Fourteen hours later, Chen Yu and others finally arrived in Kiev, Ukraine.

In addition to sleeping, Chen Yu was studying the script of "House of Flying Daggers". Of course, he would occasionally go to the cabin to catch his breath.

"I didn't see you this morning. Are you sleeping?!"

Zhang Ziyi got off the plane and couldn't help but ask Chen Yu. Chen Yu shook the note in his hand: "I'm writing a biography!"

Several people were waiting to get their suitcases.

Zhang Ziyi was a little surprised and said: "Why, did you just start reading the script yesterday?"

Regarding character biographies, of course Zhang Ziyi also does them.

Although she has a lot of negative news in her later life, her acting skills are indeed among the best among actresses, which is not bad.

At present, she seems to be on the rise of her career, so she is very devoted to the interpretation of the role.

The female lead she played in "House of Flying Daggers" was a blind dancer, that is, a blind girl.

In order to play this role well, she lived with a blind girl with a brain tumor for two months some time ago. Except for going to the toilet, they were almost inseparable and observed each other's diet, daily life and movements every day.

In her previous life, "House of Flying Daggers", she was the most outstanding actor.

Liu Dehua's acting skills have greatly declined, and Jin Chengwu was so scolded that he stopped filming in the mainland... This was his first costume drama in his life, and then he encountered Waterloo!

To the point where the audience can't stand it.

The blunt and pretentious dialogue, Hong Kong and Taiwanese accents, and hilarious and passionate performances completely made the character lose credibility. The emotional scenes he co-starred with Zhang Ziyi were even less beautiful... Anyway, there are a lot of shortcomings.

Coupled with Mei Yanfang's incident, many people expected this drama to be a hit.

"without!"

Chen Yu shook his head at Zhang Ziyi: "I was familiar with the lines and script before, and I started to deepen my impression yesterday, so I made a short biography and let myself try to embody it!"

Chen Yu has actually transformed into Chen Baotou in the drama, and his introverted character is also trying to become more sunny.

Chen Captou is a prodigal son who indulges in the flower field. Just like his lines, he is the wind, the wind that goes with the wind.

"When the time comes, I will definitely see the acting skills of Berlin's Best Actor!"

Zhang Ziyi snickered. The few people took their luggage and walked out of the airport when they saw the vehicles of the "House of Flying Daggers" crew coming to greet them.

This time, "House of Flying Daggers" was filmed in Wolf, a small town near Kiev.

Lviv’s unique scenery, with its vast tracts of open mountain scenery, is very suitable for shooting big-budget movies.

Previously, Cheng Long's "Platinum Dragon" was filmed here.

At that time, "Platinum Dragon" used the snowy scenery on Lvov Mountain in winter, but this time Zhang Yimou chose the unique scenery of early autumn!

The car kept speeding all the way, and finally arrived at the set that had been arranged early at 10 a.m.

After a brief opening ceremony, Zhang Yimou announced that "House of Flying Daggers" has officially started filming. At 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, the first scene of Chen Yu and Zhang Ziyi will be filmed here.

After getting familiar with each other, the two will shoot a lot of rival scenes and passionate scenes...

"It's 8 o'clock tomorrow morning!"

“The accommodation conditions are a bit rough, so we’ll just have to make do with it!”

Kiev's current economic conditions are not even as good as those in the country, let alone the current small county. The transportation conditions are not developed, and the accommodation and food conditions are only equivalent to the domestic level in the 80s.

Not to mention taking a shower at night, the power supply is even more inadequate.

When Chen Yu arrived at the team, he heard many staff members who had been here for a few days complaining that either the power or the water was cut off, so they could only wipe themselves down with cold water.

Chen Yu was fine, but Zhang Ziyi probably couldn't stand it.

Fortunately, eating was okay.

Every time Lao Mouzi shoots a film, he has a special kitchen to follow him to cook for the crew. It is also the same this time. It is just due to the lack of local supplies and the filming location is in the Lviv Mountains. It is already very good to have water and electricity. It eliminates the embarrassment of “having money and nowhere to spend it”.

Chen Yu is not bad, at least it is an independent tent-style residence. Zhang Ziyi lives next door to him, and Lao Mouzi and Jiang Zhiqiang are also nearby.

One person per household, just a bed, stool, table and so on.

"This damn network doesn't even exist..."

Chen Yu was also convinced. When he turned on his laptop, let alone wireless, there was no 2G GPRS.

"I can only send you a message!"

"Let me tell you this, it's worse than the environment in "The Blind Shaft"!"

Chen Yu and Liu Yifei were sending messages, but Zhang Ziyi's voice came from outside the door: "Junior, can I come in?"
