Unscientific Movie King

Chapter 80: Can Hung Fist Fight?

"Clap!"

"Everyone follow me, first eight beats, turn around and circle, take two steps forward, raise your left hand, very good, raise your right hand... take two steps back and circle again, bend your knees..."

The Axe Gang's victory dance doesn't have many moves and is very easy to learn.

In half an hour, Qin Chuan had already taught more than a dozen extras how to do the job.

Finally, everyone was handed an axe and the rehearsal began.

Qin Chuan, as the lead dancer, stood at the front. He couldn't see the performance of the people behind him, so he could only do his part well.

After the rehearsal, Zhou Xingchi applauded: "Okay, let's do it this way and prepare for filming."

"Scene 4, first shot, action!"

Studio, interior scene.

Qin Chuan didn't have a single line of dialogue. He just picked up an axe and started dancing, sometimes turning around, sometimes stepping forward. His dance was very magical.

The last action is to raise the axe in your hand.

After the filming, seeing Zhou Xingchi staring at the monitor, Qin Chuan secretly walked over and stood not far away to watch.

Noticing the gaze behind him, Zhou Xingchi turned around and said, "No need to stand so far away, come and see."

Qin Chuan smiled awkwardly and walked forward to watch the replay.

Soon, he finished watching the segment he had just performed.

"Director Zhou, isn't this segment a bit messy and untidy?"

It would be strange if everything was in sync during the last-minute rehearsal. I didn't notice it when I was dancing on stage, but it was very obvious when watching the replay from a third-person perspective.

"It's okay, it's messy but not bad, just natural and casual, that's it." After commenting on this scene, Zhou Xingchi commented on Qin Chuan: "Your acting is good, and you have a deep understanding of the role, but your performance is not good enough."

"Maybe you've been shooting too many TV dramas and don't have any experience shooting movies. When shooting a movie, you need to be a little more restrained in your expressions."

"Movies are on the big screen. The audience can see every blink and every expression."

After just a little thought, Qin Chuan understood what Zhou Xingchi meant.

The TV has a small screen and the audience sits a few meters away to watch, so everyone can tolerate poor acting skills and any flaws cannot be noticed.

Movies are different. They are shown in theaters. The screen is so big that the audience can see clearly any slight movement of the facial features.

"Thank you Director Zhou, I understand."

"Yes, but don't try too hard to show off your skills. You must retain the character's temperament. Go ahead and get busy."

"Good director."

Qin Chuan left and Zhou Xingchi continued to focus on the monitor.

In this crew, Qin Chuan is one of the few actors who doesn't give him any worries.

The young man was very smart and understood what I meant after just a little reminder, so he saved himself a lot of effort.

Another actor who gave him less trouble was Yuan Qiu.

……

Pig cage walled city.

Ah Xing went to the barber shop to blackmail and met the landlady.

Yuan Qiu took off his slippers and slapped Zhou Xingchi in the face.

"The Axe Gang, huh?"

"Mafia, huh?"

Zhou Xingchi said he wanted to fight for real, so Yuan Qiu really fought, with a cigarette between his lips, and he showed no mercy.

Zhou Xingchi's face turned red.

In the end, Yuan Qiu became more and more addicted to beating him, and Zhou Xingchi held his head and said, "Ka, ka, ka, stop, stop beating me."

I thought this was just Zhou Xingchi's impromptu performance and a line, but Yuan Qiu didn't stop and beat him even harder.

Zhou Xingchi turned and ran.

"Sister Qiu, I just told you to stop. You've already called out 'Cut,' so why are you still hitting me?"

"I'm sorry, Director. I thought you were just improvising."

Zhou Xingchi: “…”

Me.

Without saying anything else, Zhou Xingchi went to watch the replay. It turned out that it was not a big deal. He was very satisfied with his "improvisation".

"Yes, just follow this."

"Get ready for the next one." Next up was the fight scene, and martial arts instructor Huang Jinbao finally came in handy.

But Zhou Xingchi was not satisfied as soon as he came on stage.

"I don't want this kind of boxing. I want to send someone flying more than ten meters with one punch, or make a light jump three meters high."

"Is it a martial arts style?"

"It's not martial arts, it's fantasy, you know?"

"What's the difference between that and my design? I also knock people away with one punch."

"It's not the flying punch you're doing. This is a real-life punch. It's too close to science. There's no need to be realistic."

During the first fight scene, director Stephen Chow and martial arts instructor Fatty Huang had a dispute.

There are more than a dozen NGs and none of them are usable.

Huang Jinbao is also in trouble. He is known as the big brother in the industry. Who wouldn't give him face?

As for the martial arts design, no one can help but praise it.

Zhou Xingchi, on the other hand, has denied him again and again. Even after he asked, it still didn't work. Isn't this really embarrassing?

If the two of them had no grudges against each other, Huang Jinbao would have suspected that Zhou Xingchi had paid him to come and deal a punishment to him.

For the next seven or eight days, the two quarreled on the set every day.

Yuan Qiu tried to stop the fight but failed.

In the end, Huang Jinbao simply took a few days off on the grounds of feeling unwell, intending to let Zhou Xingchi think clearly about what he wanted before coming to him again.

As a result, Zhou Xingchi fired the fat man directly.

The martial arts instructor was paid eight million yuan in salary.

The fat man was furious.

Without a martial arts instructor, the Kung Fu crew couldn’t continue filming the fighting scenes at all, and had to shoot the literary scenes first.

All of a sudden, benefits and pressure came to Qin Chuan.

Originally, Brother Chen didn’t have that many scenes, and according to the normal schedule, it would take him more than two months to finish filming.

Now the martial arts group has dropped out, and the entire crew is concentrating on the literary scenes, shooting him every few days.

He acted opposite Zhou Xingchi, opposite Huoyun Evil God, opposite Yuan Qiu... In just half a month, Qin Chuan finished filming a scene that was originally planned to take more than a month.

If we continue at this pace, we will be finished in another half month.

However, Qin Chuan's dream was shattered on the day Mr. Yuan Baye joined the team.

China's number one martial arts instructor, Yuan Ba ​​Ye, was asked by Stephen Chow to save the day and redesign the martial arts moves.

"You guys can be more exaggerated in your martial arts. The Hong family's iron wire fist is mainly fierce and powerful, with big and wide movements."

"The Twelve-Route Tan Leg must be fast, and the Five-Rod Bagua Stick must be accurate."

"We can use sound wave power to replace Tiancan Dique. The Six-Fingered Zither Demon knows that the sound of the zither can transform him into a human form."

Although Mr. Yuan Ba ​​couldn't understand what Zhou Xingchi's fantasy martial arts meant, he still tried his best to fulfill Zhou Xingchi's requirements.

This is the first time that the concept of "qi" has been incorporated into a film with a modern background.

So, the first group battle scene in Pig Cage Village was a bloody massacre.

In the tailor shop, Tiancan challenged Hong Jia's Iron Wire Fist. The two fought hard and the walls were devastated.

The fight started inside and ended outside.

In the end, Tiancan and Dique joined forces and used sonic power to beat the tailor to pieces.

Then Wulang Bagua Stick entered the scene and the second round of PK began.

Qin Chuan came to watch the show every day, and he would admire it as he watched: "This martial arts is awesome. The tailor has a solid foundation in Hong Quan, and he must have practiced for at least ten years."

Master Yuan Ba, who was standing nearby, heard this and laughed: "Zhao Zhilin has been practicing Hung Fist for more than a dozen years, at least forty years."

"He learned from Lin Shirong. You know who Lin Shirong is, right? He is the pork Rong in the Huang Feihong series. Zhao Zhilin is the real disciple of Huang Feihong."

Qin Chuan smacked his lips: "So fierce."

Master Yuan Ba ​​put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "He is extremely fierce. Zhao Zhilin is the leader of the Hong Quan school. He has hundreds of thousands of disciples all over the world."

Qin Chuan took a deep breath and asked the question that had been in his mind for a long time: "Master Ba, can Hong Quan really be used?"

If he really could fight, he wouldn't be polite.

Who doesn’t have a martial arts dream?
