King of Rolls' China Entertainment Tour

Chapter 292 "Saw" Finale Banquet

After taking a group photo, the 19th Hong Kong Film Awards officially came to an end.

Yu Hao and the others walked out of the venue chatting and laughing. As soon as they walked out of the gymnasium, a reporter came up and asked:

"Director Yu, congratulations to the crew of "Savage Girl" for winning the Academy Awards. However, I heard that you were not even nominated for Best Director. What do you think about this?"

Yu Hao smiled and said: "But, I have already won the best picture. If a movie wins the best picture and the best actress, plus the best music, the harvest is already quite big. I am satisfied."

A reporter curiously asked: "Director Yu, you are also the male protagonist of "Savage Girl". What do you think about not having a best actor nominated?"

Yu Hao raised his eyebrows and said: "My main job is directing. I am an actor just to serve my movies. I have no feelings about whether I am nominated or not."

The reporter asked: "But mainland directors such as Lao Mouzi and Jiang Wen have all won Best Actor. Do you think you can't compare to them?"

Yu Hao laughed and said: "You have to understand one thing. The subject matter and content of the movie are the key to winning the award. For an urban romance film like "Savage Girl" to win the Best Actress and Best Picture, it is already very good.

My performance in the movie can only be said to be good, but it is far from the level of winning the Best Actor Award, and it is not as good as the performances of several nominated actors in the movie. Besides, as a director, why do I want the Best Actor Award? "

The reporter said excitedly: "Director Yu, you mean that your acting skills are not as good as those of them, right?"

Yu Hao said with a speechless expression: "You guys can say whatever you like."

A reporter asked Gao Yuanyuan: "Ms. Gao, what do you think of your ability to defeat those popular nominees?"

Gao Yuanyuan thought for a moment and said, "I'm very happy, but I will continue to work hard."

…………

After the interview, Yu Hao took Gao Yuanyuan and his party back to the hotel.

After returning to the room, Gao Yuanyuan said with excitement: "Senior brother, I am also a movie queen now, and I have become a movie queen after watching movies. Does this count as my first job?"

Yu Hao joked: "Do you really think you have the ability to be a movie queen?"

Gao Yuanyuan's smiling face fell instantly, and she said helplessly: "Can't you just make me happy for a while? I'm only 20 years old, how good can I be in acting? Now I'm already pretty good."

Yu Hao nodded and said: "It's good to know. You can be happy, but you can't be arrogant. Your ability to resist ratings and box office is not clear yet. When you can have that ability, you will be worthy of becoming a TV queen and movie star." It’s over.”

Gao Yuanyuan shrugged and said, "Well, it seems I still have to work hard, but I won't disappoint my senior brother. Next year, can my contract be higher?"

Yu Hao nodded and said, "No problem, but do you still care about this?"

Gao Yuanyuan stuck out her tongue and said mischievously: "I don't care, but as a big company, Sugon should set an example for others. Otherwise, everyone will have no motivation, which is not conducive to the development of the company."

Yu Hao nodded and said: "I know, I will prepare something for you when the time comes. By the way, you can collect information from the magazine. I plan to make a ranking of the four little actresses."

Gao Yuanyuan asked curiously: "According to what standards?"

Yu Hao thought for a while and said: "The most important thing is nationality, followed by ratings, box office results, endorsement ads, and how many magazines you have photographed, these can all be used as criteria."

Gao Yuanyuan smiled and said: "I must have a share in that, but wouldn't it be good for me to have more referees and be a player at the same time?"

Yu Hao shook his head and said: "If you are not qualified, then how can others be qualified? Just try to be fair."

This night, Yu Hao experienced what it was like to be a Best Actress at the Academy Awards, which was a little different from what it was like to be a Best Actress at the Golden Eagle Awards. It was a pity that he had to change his dress again.

The next day, I spent a day shopping with Gao Yuanyuan, and then took the crew to Hollywood again.

After returning, Yu Hao continued filming non-stop.

However, for some unknown reason, there are always a lot of problems when shooting.

"Ka, Jin, you have a problem here. Didn't I ask you to think about it carefully before? Is this the result?"

Jim Carrey said helplessly: "Yu, as actors, movies are our lives, so we naturally hope to perform better.

But I don’t know what your specific requirements are? Hope it can give us a reference direction. "

Yu Hao thought for a moment and walked over and said, "In that case, let's take a look at what I want to express."

Everyone in the crew turned their attention to Yu Hao, but they were all skeptical.

They know Jim Carrey's acting skills well and want to know what wonderful performance Yu Hao will have. If it is not good, it will be a shame.

Yu Hao didn't hesitate when he saw this, he just lay down in the dirty bathtub and shouted to the board: "Three scenes, two scenes, two, action."

Yu Hao then started his performance. He sat up suddenly, gasped for air, looked around with a horrified look, and then shouted loudly.

Seeing no one responded, and looking at this dark scene, I couldn't help but whisper: "Am I dead?" His hands were still touching himself from time to time.

At this moment, Mark's deep voice came from the other side: "You're not dead yet. Stop screaming. There's no one here. I've tried it before."

Then the lights came on one by one. Yu Hao squinted his eyes and raised his hand to block the light. Only then did he realize that the two of them were in an abandoned toilet. Then he stood up, lifted up his clothes and said, "Look, am I okay?" ?”

When Jim Carrey saw Yu Hao's performance, he immediately understood what Yu Hao meant. Then he compared it with his previous performance, and a lot of inspiration suddenly came to his mind.

Sun Cheng also shouted at the right time: "It's stuck. It's passed."

Yu Hao asked Jim Carrey: "How is it? Are you clear?"

Jim Carrey nodded and said: "Yu, I understand. Details, details everywhere, make the character more full and the audience can be more immersed in the scene. It seems that I did not do it well before."

Mark also said thoughtfully: "Facial expressions, the character's true reaction on the spot, and behavior consistent with the character are all important."

Yu Hao said very seriously: "That's it. The script is just a foundation for you. You still have to think carefully about how to perform it.

If it can be done well, I believe that after this movie is finished, you will definitely get something good. You must also be worthy of my salary. Don't let people say that this is Yu Hao's movie. There is no Zunlong, Jim Carrey, Mark, etc. thing. "

Everyone suddenly became nervous, remembering the situation of "Datang". That movie was like this. Everyone in Hollywood knew that it was Yu Hao's movie and had no impression of the leading actors.

This scene was re-shot three times before Yu Hao ended it satisfactorily. The shooting continued the next day. Today's scene is the scene of the two looking for clues.

"Three scenes, five shots, one action."

No one knows why they were kidnapped, let alone why they appeared in this strange place. No one knows what they should do, but the murderer has left instructions to them.

The corpse held a small tape recorder in its right hand, which contained the kidnapper's instructions: Gordon must kill Adam within 6 hours. If the task fails, not only will both of them die, but Gordon's family will also be brutally murdered. .

Lawrence, played by Mark, did not act recklessly. He stood up and walked around. He looked around and saw a clock hanging in the middle of the toilet. Then he said confidently: "It must have something to do with time."

Jim Carrey also started groping around on his body. The two searched for two pieces of evidence and started sawing off the anklets on his body, but it was to no avail.

He was so angry that he threw the receipt at the wall and broke a corner of the mirror.

Yu Hao shouted: "Kah, are you trying to show that you accidentally hit the mirror instead of knowing it so deliberately? At this time, you are very upset, but the saw in your hand is a survival tool, and the professionalism of a doctor makes you unable to He will be so irritable, but the expression on his face is also uncomfortable, all of this needs to be shown on his face."

Jim Carrey and the two nodded, put on spare mirrors and started filming again.

A week later, the crew was about to reach the climax of filming, when they came to the scene where Gordon sawed off his own leg.

"Six scenes, one shot, one action."

Anne called Gordon again, but Mark couldn't get it because he had just thrown away the phone and his foot was locked. The phone rang, and Mark sawed off his foot in mania and despair.

The phone stopped ringing during the sawing process, and Mark climbed out dragging his broken leg. When Jim Carrey heard the gunshots coming from the phone, he felt a surge of mania and despair in his heart.

Yu Hao shouted: "Ka, Jin, you didn't show your mania and despair. Put yourself in your shoes and think about it if the person you care about most encountered this situation, what would you think? What would you do?"

Jim Carrey nodded, thinking that if someone was in danger, he couldn't help but feel a sudden thought.

"Six scenes, one shot, two, action."

Jim Carrey's performance was perfect this time.

The next thing to be filmed was that Lawrence suddenly pulled his shirt over, bit it in his mouth and started sawing his feet.

Yu Hao, Sun Cheng, and Teacher Mao began to discuss how to shoot more reasonably. Seem more real?

Teacher Mao suggested: "Director Yu, just put a few pieces of chili pepper in your mouth for cold sweat, just control it."

Yu Hao nodded, and then asked Zun Long and the others: "Can such detailed descriptions of sawing legs appear in Hollywood movies? Or can such detailed expressions be produced?"

Mark swallowed and said, "Yes, but it will be classified as an R-rated movie."

Yu Hao smiled and said: "Okay, then show it perfectly. If you don't know how to show it, you can ask someone. I believe someone should know this."

Due to the requirement of authenticity, these people went down to prepare, and the crew also took two days off.

The plot about leg sawing has been stuck here for the past few days, and today Yu Hao plans to finish filming it directly.

"Seven scenes, four shots, eight times, action."

Jim Carrey bit his shirt and sawed his legs, and Yu Hao shouted: "Close-up of face, close-up of legs."

After Jim Carrey ate three chili peppers, he bit his shirt and the veins on his forehead popped out, and his face became paler and paler. Finally, he was shaking all over and sweat was falling like raindrops. This is a close-up of his face.

The leg is a bionic prosthesis, which is filled with equal proportions of pig blood. With Jim Carrey's saw, the skin, bones, and tendons are broken bit by bit.

The sweat is falling faster and faster, and the sound of exhalation is getting more and more rapid.

After filming this scene, Yu Hao shouted: "It's stuck. It's passed."

Jim Carrey quickly got up and ran out. Yu Hao didn't know why, but Teacher Mao chuckled and said, "He drank a lot of water and ate a few chili peppers, so he must be feeling very uncomfortable now."

Yu Hao could only sigh.

"Seven scenes, five shots, one action."

Then the filming of the final scene began:

In the end, Lawrence's colleagues failed. Lawrence sawed off his feet and escaped. The candid cameraman was still in the bathroom, but "Jigsaw" got up from the ground, closed the door and left. The candid cameraman was still in the bathroom, and the game continued.

Mark dragged his broken leg out of the bathroom. Jim Carrey was still very happy, but when he found out the truth, he was confused. He didn't know who was the real murderer?

At this time, Zunlong got up from the ground wearing a hood and a strange look on his face, and Jim Carrey looked confused.

Finally, Zunlong slowly walked out of the bathroom, leaving Jim Carrey shouting hysterically. Then, Jim Carrey turned around, turned off the light and closed the door with his desperate eyes. Jim Carrey was completely desperate.

The video ends here.

Yu Hao shouted: "Stuck, pass."

A movie that only took 45 days was completed, and Yu Hao felt that it was incredibly fast.

In the past, it took him two months to shoot a TV series, and "Sassy Girlfriend" also took more than two months.

However, thinking that the original version was only shot for 18 days, Yu Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Although it took a month longer than others, Yu Hao felt that it was worth it. The performances of Jim Carrey and others were worth the remuneration he paid.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but pick up the loudspeaker and shouted: "It's done."

After hearing this, everyone in the crew came back to their senses, with expressions of relief appearing on their faces.

Filming this kind of thriller is not only uncomfortable for the actors, but also for those behind the scenes. Especially knowing what the story is and having it deeply impressed in their minds, and having to shoot it over and over again, makes it even more uncomfortable for them.

When they came outside and saw the sun again, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Li and others took water-soaked grapefruit leaves and sprinkled them on several people. There was a brazier in front of them.

Zunlong couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and followed Yu Hao naturally.

Anne Hathaway and others looked confused, Yu Hao said with a smile: "This is a way of getting rid of bad luck in our country, there is something."

Several people accepted this mysterious ritual with curious faces, and no one refused the kindness.

Afterwards, the group went to the hotel arranged in advance to celebrate.

Jim Carrey picked up the glass and said to Yu Hao: "Yu, thank you. I have learned a lot from you. If you have a suitable role next time, you must consider me. The salary is negotiable."

Yu Hao smiled and said: "That's natural. Your acting skills are very good. I like actors like you very much."

After drinking a few drinks, Zunlong said with a smile: "Director Yu, I feel very good working with you. I wonder if I can sign a contract with your company? I like working with you very much."

Anne on the side blinked her big eyes and said with a bright smile: "Yu, I also want to sign a contract with your company, you can't forget me."

Seeing Annie's coquettish behavior toward Yu Hao, everyone understood. It seemed that Yu Hao had completely won her over.

Yu Hao chuckled and said: "Okay, as long as you are willing, we can sign the contract at any time."
