The crew of "The Room of Fear".

A sketch of a bathroom game is pasted on the tiled wall with red tape, and the black lines outline a very exaggerated and paradoxical asymmetrical composition.

The most eye-catching thing at first glance is that in the center of this painting, a corpse is lying in a pool of blood, which is bright and dazzling.

"Ding--"

Maybe it was because the tiles were too slippery, the three corners of the drawing paper were torn apart instantly, and the whole story draft suddenly hung down, shaking in the air.

The staff of the crew glanced at the drawing paper, and couldn't help but look away, each with lingering fear.

In the core area of ​​the crew not far away, the camera boom is being reassembled. Every member of the camera crew is nervous, their eyes are distracted, and they look scared.

"Grandpa?"

With his ponytail tied, Qiu Litao looked back nervously at Wu Xiaozu who was standing behind him with his arms folded.

The cold gaze glanced at Qiu Litao indifferently, and the other party immediately shut up, and turned his head to supervise the placement and assembly of the camera boom.

The entire crew was filled with an atmosphere of tension, formality, and nerves.

an hour ago...

……

The opening scene of "Fear Room".

The square tables were covered with tributes, the incense burner was filled with sandalwood, and the atmosphere of the whole scene was warm.The staff who started work early in the morning before they had time to eat breakfast rushed to grab the tributes on the table, feeling happy.

"Good luck, smooth start!"

Qiu Litao ripped off the "red robe" draped over the camera with a smile on his face, and with the crackling sound of firecrackers "Send the (horror) God" to the sky, the film "Fear Room" officially ended the ceremony of worshiping the gods. .

Wu Xiaozu and Tsui Hark looked at each other and smiled.

A person who is good at composition, light, and sense of space, likes to use the lens to explain the fate of cause and effect, and creates a strong personal independent style.

One likes to be imaginative and unconstrained, creating a sense of suspense, and using parallel lenses to show the unique beauty of a scroll.

The two are completely different from each other, but they both have the heart of a commercial director.For this hasty temporary cooperation, both parties also have great expectations.A collaboration between the two studios is not ruled out, if possible.

Great money!The two impure people are both the special one in the new wave.

"The various departments of "Fear Room" audition, Do Reimi sends and receives Xi Duo, and Do Xi La sends and receives Mi Lai Duo..."

Ye Weixin, the field manager, took the walkie-talkie and sang a set of notes with excellent timbre and high pitch, plus a bit of beauty, if he debuted and became an idol, it would be a way to make a living.

With long hair and shawls, Qiu Litao, a men's clothing tycoon, stared seriously at the cameraman hanging on the wire.

In order to make the lens more flexible, Wu Xiaozu and Tsui Hark decided on this shooting method together.The cameraman's hanging wire is convenient for the camera to rotate and shoot, and it is also flexible and changeable, which is very suitable for this kind of horror sensory movie that emphasizes the lens and atmosphere.

Since Wu Xiaozu chose to shoot "Fear Chamber", he naturally had to know how to choose. Hong Kong Island or Asian audiences may not necessarily buy blood plasma films that are popular in Europe and the United States.Therefore, how to balance the blood plasma and the atmosphere, so that the stream of consciousness and the flow of the senses can be balanced on a fulcrum, this is worthy of Wu Xiaozu and Tsui Hark's respective creativity.

Fortunately, one of the two has read countless films, and a computer can support at least 15 film sources for "Whale Killing" websites, and the other is at the creative peak of life, and can have energy and brain power to collide and create.

If it were the old monster Xu of later generations, Wu Xiaozu would not dare to compliment him.

It is impossible to verify who invented this method first, but this method is most often used in the movies of the sexual intercourse dragon.

Therefore, Uncle Long's film crew and cameraman rotation is the crew with the most frequent rotation in the entire Chinese-speaking film circle.

Several strong men pulled the rope and controlled the wire motion. The cameraman on the top opened-closed-opened-closed his legs towards the staff below. Habitually circle an OK gesture with a circle size not exceeding 10cm in thickness.

Various departments responded one by one through shouting or gestures.

The conditions of the crew on Hong Kong Island are crude. In the 80s, the crew on Hong Kong Island only used the walkie-talkie for some big-budget film crews. As for the headset... the first crew in the Chinese-speaking circle was after Fang Shilong traveled to the United States. start using.

The simplicity of the Chinese film industry is unimaginable to many later generations.

Movies are not high-tech, and Chinese-language filmmakers often use indigenous methods of steelmaking.The best among them is Xu Xianxian who advanced a few steps beside Wu Xiaozu.

""Chamber of Fear" one scene at a time, Action—"

Tsui Hark waved his hand after touching his beard, and the curly black thread ends were stuffed into the nail caps, flowing in the wind, exuding a rebellious and extraordinary temperament.

From this point of view, Tsui Hark is really a man who goes to the toilet to walk the bird, but doesn't like to wash his hands.

With a wave of his hand, the black line flew to the north... He glanced at the "stand-in" lying in a pool of blood, and stepped forward to signal a pause in filming, and went up to "tell the show" to the stand-in corpse.In other plays, corpses don't matter, but "Chamber of Fear" is different.

The entire crew, even Zhou Runfa and Liang Jiahui, the two absolute leading actors, have not been given the detailed entire script, and they have not even read the last 25 pages of the script.They are also at a loss as to the ending and the scenes.Even, they are still in a state of confusion about the film.

Movie scripts are just scattered sentences. Simple vocabulary describes the psychological state, and more specific expressions require actors to experience themselves.

In later generations, Xiao Xianrou's expression is not in place... It may be that he failed the language, his imagination is not rich enough, and his IQ is flawed.Therefore, those heretics who criticize the "idol" for their dedication and character, are all bad intentions.

So, please respect the brain-dead and brain-dead fans.Because, in this society, the brain-dead should be understood and cared for.

The doctor played by Zhou Runfa sits in a corner with chains on his feet,

"You need to lie on your stomach like this—" Mr. Xu was really professional in his acting, and lay down on the ground to demonstrate.

In later generations, he told Yang Tianbao about the bed scene in "The Dragon King of the Gods". Next to him, Old Freak Xu could only respond with a polite smile.

"Crunch - ah!!!"

Sudden! ! !

With a cracking sound, a scream resounded through the crew, and then countless people saw the cameraman tied to the wire fall down in a daze!

boom!
Hit the bullseye!

The pool of blood from the prop was splashed, then oozes, and slowly spreads.

Tsui Hark, Substitute 1, and the camera operator fell into a ball, and Tsui Hark's legs were directly crushed under him, twisting into the shape of a "Bayer's arc".

"Hurry up and save people!!!" Wu Xiaozu subconsciously ran towards Tsui Hark.

There was an instant bang on the entire crew, and everyone was in a mess.

"Don't touch it! Don't touch it! Go to the emergency call!!" Wu Xiaozu quickly stopped everyone from reaching out, and calmly directed the on-site staff.

The crowd hurriedly carried the three wounded away on a makeshift stretcher, and they had just left.

"Crack-"

The incandescent light tubes above the bathroom started to flash, and three or four light tubes went out in a row. The wires connected to the camera suddenly burst into sparks, and the whole camera burned out instantly.

"This movie is a bit weird..." Some staff member muttered, and everyone's scalps went numb.

In the mottled bathroom looking at the scene, the pool of blood on the ground was particularly dazzling.

At the same time, the bathroom game paper behind him suddenly fell, and a gust of wind blew, shaking in the air.

The atmosphere at the scene instantly became paradoxical.

All kinds of supernatural and strange events are often circulated among the crews of the entertainment industry, and everyone keeps secrets about them.

Hong Kong people believe in feng shui ghosts and gods the most. When this happened suddenly in a horror movie, a sense of panic spread throughout the crew.

"Brother Zu, look—"

Qiu Litao suddenly excitedly picked up a wire rope and handed it to Wu Xiaozu.

After receiving the steel wire, Wu Xiaozu fixed his eyes on the fracture.

"There are obvious traces of man-made wear and tear here, a preliminary judgment..." Qiu Litao stopped talking here, and did not continue, but the meaning of the expression could not be more clear.

"Have you called the police?"

"Reported."

Qiu Litao nodded, "You asked me to call the police just now, and I called the police immediately."

"Okay, I'll go to the hospital first. You can deal with the messenger here." Wu Xiaozu said.

The crew couldn't cover up this kind of problem, so it's better to take the initiative to deal with it than the staff "unintentionally" revealed it.

What's more, Tsui Hark was also injured.

Wu Xiaozu looked at the many staff members who were dodging their eyes, his face was calm and his eyes were cold.

There are many "accidents" in the film crew. He is not sure whether the other party has an enmity with a certain actor this time, or has some other purpose.But all this made Wu Xiaozu fall into a passive state.

Tsui Hark broke his leg, which obviously affected the filming of the whole movie.

……

Charity Hospital.

Tsui Hark had a plaster cast on his leg, and was hanging above the hospital bed with a protective device around his neck, with a dejected expression on his face.

"It's good to be filming safely and steadily, don't come to Wu Xiaozu's side." Shi Nansheng, a capable short-haired and loose-fitting man next to the hospital bed, peeled an apple with a fruit knife and handed it to Tsui Hark's mouth. before the gram.

Old Freak Xu swallowed apple slices, but still retains his unruly aura, "I'm just shooting movies in peace."

"Then I will prepare three or four movies for you, and I will guarantee that you will have movies to shoot from the beginning of the year to the end of the year." Shi Nansheng said calmly, "Don't be deceived by that guy's appearance, he is different from you."

"He also likes movies very much." Tsui Hark said silently.

"But he doesn't care about gains and losses when doing things. To put it nicely, it's called doing big things without sticking to small details, but to put it bluntly, it's called unscrupulous. I heard rumors during this period that his movie is not pure."

Shi Nansheng hid his heroic spirit between his brows, and glanced at Tsui Hark who was hesitant to speak with a steady aura, and raised his hand and stuffed half of the apple into his own husband's mouth.

……

Outside the ward, a hand was fixed on the door, Wu Xiaozu accidentally listened to the corner.

"Are you embarrassed?"

Looking for her reputation, the plump and mature Lin Qingxia was standing behind her with a smile.

The white suit is closed, revealing a piece of deep white inlaid with black lace, and the white trousers on the lower body are tight, completely looking like an OL Yujie.

Wu Xiaozu was thick-skinned, shook his head with his expression unchanged, hung a light smile, and said in a Buddhist style, "Who doesn't talk about others behind their backs, and who doesn't get told behind their backs? Everyone has the right to judge others.

I can't force everyone to like me and my style of doing things. "

Sister Lin Yu smiled slightly, not to break the argument of the little man in front of her.But in her heart she really liked Wu Xiaozu's calm and mature performance.This man seems to have his own rules of life in any situation.
