This actor just wants to verify.

Chapter 70: SLR camera ruins your life, photography makes you poor for three generations

On the way back, Hao Yun still sat with Chen Guanxi.

This time Chen Guanxi didn't sleep again.

He was studying a SLR camera with the packaging box still there, obviously it was a new purchase in Siam.

Hao Yun decided to give him a chance.

Take another handful and see.

+120 for photography!

Well, apart from photography, you can’t reveal any other attributes.

"Can you play?" Chen Guanxi knew that Hao Yun could speak Cantonese, and he saw Hao Yun and Liu Furong chatting and laughing until they were about to board the plane.

Anyone who can be favored by Liu Furong is at least worthy of talking to him.

"No!" The photography attribute that Hao Yun had picked up yesterday has not disappeared yet, but having the attribute alone is useless. He must at least know how to use the camera in order to bring out the effect of the attribute.

"Let me teach you. Look, this..."

Although this camera was new, Chen Guanxi had little material to shoot. He had nothing to do, so he was kind enough to teach Hao Yun.

“Haha, not bad, not bad, photography is really interesting!”

After learning all the basic operations and advanced techniques, Hao Yun has almost mastered them all.

You can get the job after taking the exam.

He kept taking pictures of himself the whole time, and when he was done he took pictures from Chen Guanxi next to him. It would be strange if he couldn't learn it.

But there are problems too.

One problem was that after he took the photos of the attributes, he couldn't help but want to point the camera at the female passengers.

Another problem was that he learned so fast that Chen Guanxi was almost frightened to the point of foaming at the mouth.

People always admire the strong. If they are not jealous, then they admire them.

Chen Guanxi had complicated feelings towards Hao Yun. He did not admit that he was jealous of Hao Yun. Hao Yun was just an unknown person from the mainland.

But with the facts before him, he actually admired Hao Yun a little.

When Hao Yun first touched his camera, he didn't even know where the shutter was. By the time he landed in Xiangjiang, he was already able to take good photos.

"I have a lot of cameras. If you are interested, I can give you one."

Chen Guanxi loves the camera, just like it is his girlfriend.

The fact that he offered to give one to Hao Yun was enough to show his appreciation.

Hao Yun is a photography genius, so maybe I’ll have a companion when playing with cameras in the future.

"No, thank you." Hao Yun laughed: "My mom said that a SLR camera ruins your life and photography makes three generations poor. Teacher Chen, please play with it less."

Hao's mother is a rural woman and she doesn't even know what a SLR is.

Naturally, I can't say such words.

It was an excuse Hao Yun made up for himself. He was determined to stay away from the camera.

If you pick up a camera and just want to point it at beautiful women, you will fail sooner or later.

"Are you fucking sick?" Chen Guanxi strode away with a cold face.

Thanks to him for teaching me everything he knew along the way, and I even planned to give him a camera as a gift.

After all, I paid by mistake!
The crew returned to Hong Kong and began formal filming.

"Infernal Affairs" tells the story of two men with confused identities, one is undercover of Jingfang and the other is of the Black Society. After a fierce fight, they are determined to find their own stories.

Hao Yun plays the youth of Jingfang undercover Chen Yongren.

The role is not too big, but not too small either, so it can be considered a supporting role.

The film is scheduled to be shot for 30 days.

The first scene was shot in a temple where Han Chen recounted his fate of "one general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers" as he saw off a group of his younger brothers. The temple was the Wanfo Temple - the name Wanfo came from the fact that the Wanfo Hall in the temple houses more than 12000 finely crafted Buddha statues and the real body of the temple's founder, Master Yuexi.

Hao Yun had nothing to do with it. In fact, he had nothing to do with it in the past few days.

First we shot the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, then the police station, then the cinema...

It will probably be a week before it is his turn to film. Currently, the scenes being filmed are mainly related to Liu Furong, Chen Guanxi and Zeng Zhiwei.

The following is a shot of the interactions between these people.

Later, he and Liang Chaowei will film their solo shows.

Hong Kong has a very scientific process for filming movies, and since most of the sets are made from local materials, the filming speed is extremely fast.

Hao Yun borrowed a laptop from Chen Guanxi to check his emails.

PTU has already sent the email.

In the project description, Hao Yun learned that this movie was actually planned to be filmed in 2000, but due to problems with actors, funding, and other aspects, it was aborted several times until it received an investment of 400 million Hong Kong dollars.

It’s shabby, only 4 million Hong Kong dollars.

Hao Yun was paid 5,000 Hong Kong dollars for the film.

If you are poor, you should just take care of yourself; if you are rich, you will think too much.

The crew's poverty can no longer be concealed, and this money is probably only enough for a taxi.

The character played by Hao Yun doesn't even have a specific name. He is just the male lead's subordinate, which is common in Du Qifeng's movies.

There is still no script, let alone any character biographies.

The presence of scripts in Hong Kong is very weak. Wang Jiawei's lack of a script is not hype, and even if other directors have one, it is only a few pages. Apart from the adapted films, "Infernal Affairs" is the first film with a definite script.

But... this story outline looks so familiar.

"Looking for a Gun"!
My goodness, this “PTU” is just the Hong Kong version of Finding the Gun.

Just a few days after my debut, I encountered two movies about guns and I had a big fight with them.

Hao Yun replied to his email, saying that he had accepted the role and was very satisfied with the role and the remuneration, and would report to the set as notified.

that's it.

In Hong Kong, email has a very strong binding force, so it doesn't matter if you don't sign a formal contract.

Rules, these are the rules.

"PTU" asked him to join the crew five days later, and "Infernal Affairs" would take at least a week later.

So what does he do these days?
Doing math problems?
Hao Yun had no choice but to help the crew with odd jobs.

Lifting equipment, moving things, picking up trash...

Or maybe it was because his attitude was really good that the director team was very satisfied, and finally someone remembered to arrange for him and Chen Guanxi to participate in training to prepare for the filming of the movie.

First, the military posture - the military posture here is different from that in the mainland.

Hao Yun felt that it was not as good as those in mainland China, but there were not many scenes in the movie, so he learned almost everything in half an hour.

Morse code, it doesn’t matter whether you learn it or not, you just type it randomly and the audience won’t have any idea what you mean.

But Hao Yun still learned it.

Because this is free, the crew hired a teacher to teach this.

Shooting - he just needs to practice with a prop gun under the guidance of a professional. In the final film, he doesn't even know if he, the undercover agent, will have the chance to use it.

But who can blame the fact that there is a gun enthusiast named Mai Zhaohui in the crew?

He was born into a police family. His father and brother were both police officers. He grew up in a police dormitory and everyone around him was a police officer.

My love for guns has long been ingrained in my bones.

For this purpose, he once participated in Zhang Guorong's 2000 film "Gun King".

This time, he decided to take Chen Guanxi, Hao Yun, and Lin Jiadong to a friend's shooting range to play.

Hao Yun was very happy because he didn't have so many opportunities to encounter guns in the mainland.

Along the way, he kept asking Mai Zhaohui for advice on things to pay attention to.

Lin Jiadong also played with guns and would join in the conversation, but Chen Guanxi just looked out the window and didn't say anything.

Ever since he was rejected from doing photography together, Chen Guanxi has been unkind to Hao Yun.

But he can’t be said to be that bad. At least he doesn’t look down on Hao Yun.

The two even slept together a few times.

However, Chen Guanxi liked to go out and play at night, and he would play until three or four in the morning. When he came back, Hao Yun was already asleep.

Hao Yun got up early in the morning, and Chen Guanxi was still sleeping when he left.

Both of them slept with their clothes on.

They were very wary of each other.

This time, when Mai called him back to take him out to play, he didn't pay much attention to Hao Yun.

"Cheer up, I'll take you to play with guns." Mai Zhaohui glanced at the back seat and found that the two young people were indeed very "well-matched".

They are both very handsome, but not equally handsome.

Chen Guanxi is cool, handsome and unruly.

Hao Yun looks more complicated, as if he is carrying a lot of things, but he is not fierce and cruel. Instead, when he smiles, there is a brightness and clarity in his expression.

Hao Yun discussed Chen Yongren with Mai Zhaohui and Zhuang Wenqiang many times.

He is getting into the role little by little.

Becoming more and more like the young Chen Yongren.

Indeed, he could use Liang Chaowei's acting skills to definitely play a Chen Yongren that both the director and Liang Chaowei would feel resembled, but Jiang Wen had told him not to always think about being like others, you have to have your own understanding, so that your performance will have soul.

There is a reopening day, and no one is young.

The middle-aged Chen Yongren became what he is today after going through so many things.

Different from Hao Yun’s young man Chen Yongren.

Therefore, he planned to understand it himself first, and then film Liang Chaowei's acting, so that he would be able to distinguish himself from Liang Chaowei.

When he arrived at the shooting range, Chen Guanxi once again felt the fear of having his IQ crushed.

As a rich second-generation born abroad, Chen Guanxi is no stranger to firearms.

Hao Yun even had to ask the coach at the shooting range how to open the safety catch.

However, it only took half a day for Hao Yun to be able to use firearms skillfully, and his accuracy was getting better and better.

Hao Yun has a junior archery coach certificate and can store 300 attribute points.

He also once got 10 points of permanent shooting attribute. Permanent attribute is equivalent to basic talent. Combined with the attributes he got from the coach, and with free bullets, it is not surprising that he learned to shoot.

However, this time he didn't dare to ask for the certificate.
