Chapter 132 Arrival in Hong Kong
Nowadays, filming has to depend on the sky to eat.

Nowadays, digital cameras are not so popular, and many directors are still used to shooting films with film.

Hou Keming lived a hard life and was very economical in filming.

After doing enough homework beforehand, I was able to control the ratio of film to 10:1.

Very impressive!

If it weren't for Cheng Yu'an's two lifetimes of directing experience, he wouldn't be able to achieve such a terrifying proportion.

You have to ask who is the director who burns the most film?

There is no doubt that Jiang Mazi is in the Chinese film industry.

He dared to burn 93 feet of film for "Sunny Day" in 25.

In order to take pictures of the Milan in his mind, he asked Ning Jing to stand in the yard and let him take pictures. It took 4 film rolls, 4 minutes for one set, 4 minutes for 16 sets, and 1 frames per second for the film roll, which means he took 24 pictures , and then choose one of the more than 23040 photos to put in the movie.

The Hongmen Banquet scene in "Let the Bullets Fly" took a week to shoot and burned 10 feet of film.

Film shooting has relatively high light requirements, and "Falling Leaves Return to Root" is an outdoor scene, and there is no way to manually adjust the light on a large scale.

You can only end the indoor play first and then go outdoors.

The weather in Yunnan Province changes rapidly, and the crew can only shoot for a while.

Just like now, the master and apprentice are hiding in the temporary shed to avoid the rain, sighing while eating pineapple.

"Why are you sighing?" Cheng Yu'an asked Hou Ke's name.

"The weather in Yunnan province is changing too fast at this time, it would be nice to come back in summer in June and July." A minute of delay costs an extra minute of money.

Every minute of the crew is money.

Finally, when the sun cleared, Hou Keming immediately called for people to start work: "Hurry up, let's take more time to shoot two sets of shots."

Although he complained, Cheng Yu'an could tell that his teacher enjoyed the uncertainty and busyness of the set.

Cheng Yu'an was busy with the crew of "Falling Leaves Returning to Roots" until April 4th when she had to leave.

The opening of the Hong Kong Island Film Awards is just around the corner. Long-distance Media has three films, "Old Thousand", "Sunflower" and "Clues of Time and Space", which have become the biggest highlights of this year's Film Awards.

If you include "Despicable Street" written by Cheng Yu'an and controlled by Yinhuang, four films will be shortlisted in Yuanyuan.

This year is a big year for the Golden Image Awards. More than 30 films have been shortlisted, and it coincides with the 25th anniversary of the Golden Image Awards. Zhang Ziyi, Li An, Wang Sunjing, Andy Lau, Stephen Chow and others will all be present.

With the in-depth development of CEPA, there are more and more co-productions between the Mainland and Hong Kong Island.

Cheng Yu'an is not Director Tang, so he cannot change the content of CEPA.

But at present, CEPA has indeed brought a new atmosphere to filmmakers on both sides of the strait.

This year's Hong Kong Film Awards, more and more mainland actors were able to participate.

Cheng Yu'an mainly participated as the director of "Clues of Time and Space".

On the evening of the 6th, Cheng Yu'an arrived on Hong Kong Island.

A total of dozens of people including the actors and staff from the three crews shortlisted remotely came to occupy the rooms on the third floor of the hotel.

Of the three films, only "Sunflower" has not yet been released.

But because there is a share of Hong Kong capital, there is nothing wrong with participating in the Hong Kong Film Awards.

Yuan Yuan's trip to the Academy Awards this time can be said to add glory to the Academy Awards.

Last year, the box office performance of local films on Hong Kong Island was unbearable.

The top ten were occupied by Hollywood with 7 places.

The other three, "Initial D" is a co-production film, "Despicable Street" is a Hong Kong script written by mainlander Cheng Yu'an, and "Old Thousand" has an all-mainland cast in addition to the director.

Calculated in this way, none of the top ten box office films on Hong Kong Island last year were purely Hong Kong films, while remote control and participation accounted for 2 of them.

Although some bigwigs in the Hong Kong film industry are unhappy with Cheng Yu'an, and even such extremely bad things as bugging happened, how can you explain to the audience if you don't invite Remote?
Let me tell you about the nominations Remote Media received for this year's Golden Image Awards:

The first is "Clues of Time and Space", nominated for best film, Cheng Yu'an nominated for best director, Gu Tianlei nominated for best actor, Fan Xiaopang nominated for best actress, as well as two for best editing and best visual effects Technology Award.

And then there's the crew of "Girls".Nominated for Best Picture, Qin Hailu was nominated for Best Actress, Hu Ge was nominated for Best New Actor, screenwriter Cheng Yuan was nominated for Best Screenplay, and director Chen Musheng was nominated for Best Director again. This is his nomination for Best Director for three consecutive years .

Finally, for "Sunflower", the director Cheng Er was nominated for the best new director, and the lead actor Jing Tian was also nominated for the best new actor.

"Sunflower" originally wanted to propose Cheng Yu'an as the best screenwriter, but Cheng Yu'an declined. In addition to "Despicable Street", Cheng Yu'an took up two nominations for the best screenplay. People take it as a joke.

"Despicable Street" is not his project, and Cheng Yu'an doesn't care much about it.But it was also nominated for eight awards including Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Director!

For those who are interested, Du Qifeng and Cheng Yu'an are the most important people to watch in this year's Golden Statue Awards.

"Underworld" has nominated everyone who can be nominated. Cheng Yu'an's movie box office is ridiculously high, and several movies, large and small, have received more than a dozen nominations.

It is also blessed with the status of the best director in Venice.

What is a great director! (Tactical back
When Cheng Yuan landed on Hong Kong Island, a group of reporters were already crouching in front of the hotel. As soon as Cheng Yuan's car entered the hotel, the reporters surrounded him.

"Cheng Sheng, do you have confidence in this trip to the Academy Awards?"

"Cheng Sheng, how would you rate Johnnie To's "Underworld"?"

"Cheng Dao, is Yuan Yuan's big nomination this time because of the wiretapping incident as compensation?" This question was asked without thinking, and Cheng Yu'an ignored it.

"Director Cheng, do you think "Clues to Time and Space" has a good chance of winning?" A familiar mandarin voice came from the group of reporters.

Cheng Yu'an stopped and looked, it was Liu Yan, a glamorous reporter.

Seeing Cheng Yuan stop, all the reporters immediately rushed up and surrounded him.

Cheng Yu'an smiled and said, "Just answer three questions, you come first." Liu Yan was ordered.

Liu Yan handed over the shiny microphone, and Cheng Yu'an asked her first: "How is your boss?"

Liu Yan said: "Mr. Wang is very good, every day is very happy."

Can you not be happy? Guangxian and Remote have a cooperation. Remote brings Guangxian to make movies, and Guangxian’s channel resources are also open to Remote. The two sides are mutually beneficial. Wang Changtian eats soundly and sleeps soundly every day.

Liu Yan then asked: "Director Cheng, Yuanyuan has three nominations for this time, which movie do you think has a higher probability of winning?"

"I like the three films very much, and I have spent a lot of energy doing them. I hope that all three films can gain something." Cheng Yu'an is well versed in interviews.

After Liu Yan finished, Cheng Yu'an ordered another Hong Kong reporter, who asked in broken Mandarin: "Director Cheng, please %￥#*&! @￥%(￥#, thank you."

Cheng Yuan frowned when he heard this: "???"

"Say it again in Cantonese. I really don't understand you when you speak Mandarin. My Cantonese is not good. Please speak slowly."

When Cheng Yuan said this, the onlookers laughed.

The reporter smiled awkwardly, switched to Cantonese, and said slowly, "Director Cheng, will the wiretapping incident last year affect your future cooperation with Hong Kong Island? Thank you."

Cheng Yu'an said with a smile: "We have never wanted to magnify this matter, and we don't want to raise this bad matter to the conflict between the mainland and Hong Kong Island film circles. This is just our personal grievance and will not affect the development and cooperation of Yuanyuan in Hong Kong Island. .Last question, Xiaohan."

Jiang Xiaohan from the movie channel also came.

"Director Cheng, do you have any new film plans after "Falling Leaves Return to Roots" this year?"

"Uh--this year's work will focus on supporting newcomers. I have a few ideas, which are still being perfected and will be announced to everyone later this year. Okay, everyone has worked hard, I will go in first. Goodbye."
