China Entertainment: Indulge in Vanity Fair

Chapter 158 What kind of person can write such a script?
When the time came to May 5, He Fang also dealt with domestic affairs and went to the United States.Because "The Purge" is about to start filming, he has to go.

The crew of "33 Days of Broken Relationship" didn't care anymore, they were already on the right track anyway, and the crew wanted to cry, but He Fang really didn't care if he said he wouldn't care too much.

Departing on the 28th Beijing time and arriving on the 28th Los Angeles time, Tong Weidong, who came with him, was a little excited. It was his first time to come to the United States. Don't get excited?

"By the way, Weidong, I have something to tell you. Don't fight with others easily in the United States. When you see the police come and ask you to raise your hand, you should raise your hand, and if you want to get down, you should get down obediently."

He Fang told Tong Weidong some tricks, but Tong Weidong was dumbfounded.

"why?"

"Because it's legal to own guns here. If you fight with others, others will draw guns. Even if you can knock down one, gangsters are also legal here. Maybe a gang will appear."

"As for the police, as long as they determine that the other party is acting dangerously, they can shoot and kill them without taking legal responsibility."

"So, when you encounter a special situation, it's best to persuade you friendly first, unless it's a last resort, and you can only do it when you are sure that you can handle all the dangers in the surrounding environment."

He Fang walked and talked, and before Tong Weidong could finish digesting them, they had already arrived at the exit, where Du Chunsheng was picking them up.

As for why the heroine Liu Yan didn't come with He Fang?

People have been here for a month or two.She worked very hard just to adapt to the life and habits here early.

So after He Fang and the others arrived at the Tuanhuo company's villa, he met Liu Yan, whom he hadn't seen for several months, and became more capable.

"Teacher Liu Yan, have you adjusted well during this time?" He Fang stepped forward to give Liu Yan a big hug.

Still so bouncy, awesome!

"It's not bad. I have basically figured out some of the routines here, which are quite different from those in China."

"It's good to get used to it, and it's good to be able to adapt to the shooting habits here."

"Well, that should be fine. Why didn't Mr. Wang come with you? Didn't he say that he also wanted to come and see the graduation practice of the students in the advanced training class?"

"He will come over in two days, it should be because the company is busy."

He Fang was talking to Yan when he suddenly remembered something.

"Chunsheng, move all the scripts and plans written by the students in the training class into my room, and I will go to check after dinner. I will work overtime tonight, and let them come over for a meeting at around ten o'clock tomorrow."

"Okay, you are the boss, you have the final say."

……

That night He Fang locked himself in his room and thoroughly studied the plans of the students in the advanced class. Of course, in order to relieve his fatigue, he specially called Liu Yan in to help him press the button.

All this was seen and heard by Tong Weidong, who was in charge of He Fang's security.

Tong Weidong felt emotional all night, it turned out that something really happened between the director and the female star, such a beautiful female star, alas... I rarely see it in normal times, the director is just cool.

If He Fang knew that recruiting a security assistant would be so responsible, he would definitely arrange something else with Tong Weidong in advance. Who likes this kind of thing to be seen?

Is my 10-minute ultra-long standby time letting others know that it will leak the secret?From then on, he was targeted by more beauties?

……

Now He Fang's energy is good. In one night, he read dozens of proposals and wrote comments. In addition, he used his 10-minute long standby skill twice.

Is this energy good?Someone non-stop all night?Then stop bragging.

The next day, the second group of members of the training class sent by Tuanhuo Culture and Guangguang Media were summoned to the Los Angeles branch of Tuanhuo, and He Fang held a one-day meeting with them.

They even commented on their plans book by book and told them where the problems were.

After the meeting with the refresher class, I went to Fujing on the third day, and on the fourth day the whole crew held a script reading meeting...

On the fifth day, Wang Changtian also came over. This time, Guangguang sent over three types of people to study, one was producers, one was directors, and the other was screenwriters. They sent ten of them respectively.

Therefore, Wang Changtian mainly cares about their progress, and hopes that they can help Guangguang to pull up his team after they go back. If they can come out with He Fang, or Feng Xiaogang, they will be prosperous.There are no people like He Fang and Feng Xiaogang, and Ning Hao is fine.

This is Wang Changtian's thinking. He can't tell who can get out in the end, so he can only cast the net to the level of ten people. It's not that he doesn't want to spread the net to the level of a hundred people. He really can't afford it, and he doesn't have so many people for him to train. ah.

Wang Changtian is actually a person suitable for an entertainment company, because he can hold his breath. The reason why He Fang cooperated with him is because he knew in another time and space that Wang Changtian was willing to invest in animation films for a long time, and finally he made a name for himself. .

This kind of long-term boss can cooperate. Like Huayi, they want to go public when they set up a company, and they want to collect money after they go public. This is not good.

He Fang saw that Wang Changtian was enthusiastically talking with the members of the training class sent by his company. He was enjoying the fun of being a Bole.

After taking a look, he pulled a stool and went to the lawn to sit and bask in the sun by himself.

After a while, He Fang heard footsteps beside him, he turned his head to look, Wang Changtian also sat over, and then handed him a cigarette.

"Director He, you are a professional. How many of the [-] people in my company do you think can come out? I don't know much about professionalism." Wang Changtian asked.

"This... I can't give you an answer right now, how about this, I will give you a rough answer after I finish working with them on this film." He Fang lit a cigarette, took a puff, and exhaled comfortably lock up.

"Okay, before I came to the United States, I went to watch the filming of "33 Days of Broken Relationship". The people you cultivated are good. The staff and actors all think that there is nothing wrong with the filming, and the film can be successful. So, now I treat you even more I have confidence in the leading method, and I look forward to this batch of trainees."

Wang Changtian has a chest full of hills and valleys, hiding great ideals and big plans.

"Heh, you have to be prepared to fail. Even if you have expectations, don't worry. Make a small investment first, and wait until they succeed in the shooting. There are still two concepts between practice and philosophy, so you can't be sloppy."

"Well, you're right."

……

On the sixth day, that is, June 6, the "Human Purge Project" was officially launched.

The crew is small and there are a lot of people, mainly because there are dozens of students in the advanced training class, busy with various positions.

The shooting schedule of "Human Purge Project" is only [-] days, the reason is very simple, the scene is simple, and the shooting is not complicated.

If it weren't for the fact that the US staff had weekends off and couldn't work overtime at night, the filming could have been done in 20 days, not to mention 30 days.

Although the shooting is not complicated, this time He Fang invited Qian Jiale from Hong Kong to be the action director of this movie, because He Fang wanted the action of the movie to look better, and it can no longer be like the original film, only bloody violence without any action beauty .

The beauty of action here does not refer to the kind that must fly around or play gracefully to be called action beauty.

Plasma film, you have to let the audience see the beauty in the violence, the feeling that the pain can come out of the screen.

How does this kind of thing manifest?A very simple example, when a punch hits a person's face, the flesh on the face deforms, trembles, teeth and blood splatter... whether the audience across the screen will feel that this will be very painful.

For another example, when the opponent cuts down with an axe, and you hold a wooden stick to block it, the crisp collision sound, as well as the ax kicking up and the wooden stick sawdust flying, the opponent's hands also trembled.

This is the aesthetics of force, the force that can be seen.

Of course, this is not to say that using high-speed photography to make slow motion is the aesthetics of force, but...

It needs action design, camera movement, light and beauty, and props to realize it together.

The American plasma film is too unaesthetic, it is pure plasma, coupled with primitive fighting, and even the movements are slow.

It may be that they are used to this aesthetic method, so why should it be improved.

Of course, it cannot be upgraded to the kind in Hong Kong movies, but a little refinement and beautification based on the style of Hollywood action movies.

For example, they still fight like that, they don't fly like Hong Kong movies, and they are still so slow.

However, it makes the blood flow more tense, the blood pool has a sense of shape, the movement has a sense of power, and the body has an artistic sense...

It is not necessary to use slow motion, as it can be shocking under normal speed.

The meaning is... ok, the explanation should be clear enough, it is to find the beauty in the plasma, let the pain spread out on the screen, so that the audience watching the movie can have an immersive feeling, and can lift their hearts to their throats, The adrenal glands can go up to the tip of the hair.

Yes, that's right, it is to work towards this feeling.

So Qian Jiale and his team try their best to help He Fang achieve what he wants.

A week after the filming started, Wang Changtian left, and the crew also entered into the extremely intense filming.

Every day Liu Yan was exhausted after filming, so she asked her assistant to give her a massage.

"How is it, Teacher Liu Yan, how do you feel these days?" He Fang asked Liu Yan.

"I'm so tired. Is this a Hollywood action movie? Actresses don't have any strength and really can't act." Liu Yan complained.

Why is she complaining?Because the action actors here sometimes really use their strength for the sake of realism. They have not received martial arts training and they don't know what retraction is, or the retraction is not good at all.

The strength of the Westerners is very strong. Although they sometimes withdraw their strength, for Liu Yan, they have to use a lot of strength to deal with it every time.

Moreover, this kind of play involves running around, so there are not many fixed shots, which consumes a lot of physical strength of the actors.

In addition, she has to keep her emotions full at all times, so her body and mind are exhausted, and she feels paralyzed after the play.

"Come on, let me press it for you." He Fang grabbed Liu Yan's hand and began to rub it slowly.

"Director He Da, why was Fan Bingbing's filming so easy last time, while mine was so hard?"

"Her is just a single film, and yours is a series, which is different. Hers is literary criticism, and yours is purely commercial. Black commercial films, plasma films, the concepts are different."

"Oh, don't click randomly..."

"What? Massage, don't all muscles need to relax for you?" He Fang said sternly.

"..." Liu Yan rolled her eyes weakly, "I have no strength."

"Do you want to use your strength? You can just enjoy it. Do you want to use your strength?" He Fang said bluntly.

"...It's up to you... hey, hey, don't talk about my clothes store, hey... ah..."

……

The content of the "Human Purge Project" is to fight, fight, kill, kill, a carnival of killing, and vent all hatred.

Anyone who can come up with this kind of story is a pervert. If it weren't for Hollywood making this kind of movie, it is estimated that Chinese people would never even think of such a story.

Because this is in another moral system, which is completely contrary to the Chinese moral system.

The most angry emotion that Chinese people can think of is to rise up and kill the enemy and the family, but this is supported by morality. In this process, human nature is not destroyed, and there is compassion. Young women and children will be spared.

However, the state directly allows killing for 12 hours in order to remove excess human beings, and there is no need for any deep hatred, let alone any survival compulsion.

It is killing for the sake of killing, killing when you are not used to it, pure killing that loses humanity.

This is a primitive animal desire with no emotional foreshadowing at all. Even wild animals will tell whether they are hungry before hunting, and they must distinguish whether they are of the same kind.

This story completely loses the ethics of wild beasts.

What the hell is this called?So this is not within the Chinese moral system.

The point is that such values ​​are normal in the eyes of the West, which is very weird.

Because of this, He Fang thinks that the person who wrote this story is a pervert, and the nation that thinks this kind of behavior is reasonable is a pervert.

...

One of the characteristics of human beings is that the body has a particularly strong ability to adapt to the environment. In a high-intensity environment, as long as your body survives the first seven or ten days, your body will adapt to this environment and intensity.

So the more the movie was made, the more fierce Liu Yan became...
