Chapter 232 Three Months

"A Chinese Journey to the West: The Moonlight Treasure Box" opens with a confrontation between Monkey King, Avalokitesvara and Tang Sanzang, which is the introduction to the whole movie.

Because the funds were not very plentiful, Su Tong took Zhao Liying, who had already played other important roles, to play Avalokitesvara as a cameo.

"Gege, are you so poor that you want to betray me?" Zhao Xiaodao cried.

"I don't want to. In my heart, you are Guanyin Bodhisattva. My admiration for you is like a torrent of river water...so you have to give it to me." Su Tong played both soft and hard ways.

Not to mention, after makeup, if you don't look carefully, you can't tell that Avalokitesvara is played by Zhao Liying.

"Such a cute Guanyin Bodhisattva."

"Ouch, I pinch, I pinch, it's so cute."

"Bodhisattva, I love you."

"..."

Many people couldn't help laughing when they saw Zhao Liying's appearance. This is a comedy movie, and it's really funny everywhere.

Tang Sanzang is played by Wang Chao. The character of this character, Niannianpipipi, is very similar to the nervous Wang Chao, allowing him to give full play to himself.

The martial arts director thought that the crew who came to Su Tong could show their strengths, but they were stunned after seeing Su Tong's martial arts moves. Has this guy practiced before? The basic skills are so solid, and he can dance sticks so well.

"Director Su, you...why do you invite me here? I feel like I'm superfluous. The movements I designed are completely different from yours." Martial arts instructor Liang Wu was very depressed.

Su Tong didn't point out that Liang Wu was the martial arts instructor he wanted to train, and he would use it for action movies in the future. After all, Su Tong lacked the skills to do everything by himself.

Su Tong had no money to hire an excellent martial arts instructor, so he hired a newcomer like Liang Wu who just graduated from the teacher.

"Let's discuss it together. We need to ask Brother Liang for help when we film in the future. Now we are improving together." Su Tong laughed.

Liang Wu was grateful in his heart, what kind of discussion was this, it was basically teaching and accepting disciples, Su Tong said it nicely.

……

Avalokitesvara, played by Zhao Liying, sits cross-legged on a lotus platform, which is placed on a high shelf.

Due to technical reasons in the previous life, Master Guanyin’s camera angles were very limited. In this life, it’s different. Which angle is beautiful and which angle has a sense of immortality, Su Tong just shoots like that, with a high shelf appearing in the camera?It's okay, let the little devil P drop in the later stage.

"Sun Wukong, you beast, you promised Tathagata Buddha to escort your master Tang Sanzang to fetch the Western Scriptures, but you actually conspired with the Bull Demon King to eat your master, do you know that you have committed a heinous crime?" In the night, Guanyin Sitting on the lotus platform, the Bodhisattva overlooks Sun Wukong below. His cute and fierce language makes people laugh from ear to ear.

Sun Wukong raised his head and said viciously: "Don't be so wordy! You chased me for three days and three nights, and I didn't kill you because you are a woman. Don't think I'm afraid of you!"

"Wukong, how can you talk to Sister Guanyin like this?" As soon as Tang Seng's line played by Wang Chao came out, everyone burst into laughter. Many actors' scripts only have their own lines when they appear on the scene, and they don't know other people's lines.

I know that this movie is a spoof of "Journey to the West", which is nonsensical, but I didn't expect it to be so funny.

Sanzang called Guanyin Bodhisattva his sister?

……

Tang Seng: "Hey, hey! Everyone, don't be angry. If you get angry, you will violate the precept of hatred! Wukong, you are too naughty. I told you not to throw things around. Why are you...Look, I haven't finished talking about you yet. Throw away the stick again! The Moonlight Treasure Box is a treasure, if you throw it away it will pollute the environment, what if you hit the children? Even if you can’t hit the children, it’s wrong to hit those flowers and plants!"

Wukong grabbed the Moonlight Treasure Box in Tang Seng's hand.
Tang Seng: "What are you doing?"

Wukong: "Let go!"
Tang Seng: "Do you want it? Wukong, if you want it, just say it. If you don't tell me, how do I know you want it? Although you look at me sincerely, you still have to tell me that you want it." I want it. Do you really want it? Then take it! You don’t really want it, do you? Do you really want it?..."
Wukong: "I rely on it!"

Wukong knocked down Tang Seng with one punch.

……

This is a plot of less than 4 minutes, but it started from dark and was filmed until [-] o'clock in the middle of the night, and it didn't go through smoothly. It was filmed until almost dawn, and Su Tong reluctantly nodded and passed.

Fortunately, there was no role for Wang Chao and Zhao Liying the next day, so Su Tong let them go back to sleep.

Playing Guanyin is only Zhao Liying's cameo role, and the bone spirit is her real role.

Tong Xiaowei, a young student from the mainland, is an artist under Qin Huang, and was introduced by Yang Feifei to play the role of the second master.

The role of the blind man was handed over to Nian Nujiao's artiste, a student of Beijing Film Academy who has not yet graduated.

Many minor roles and extras are artists from Niannujiao Film and Television Company.

Beautiful as a flower, known as a poisonous widow, but in the end she showed great motherhood because she had a child, and it was played by Li Bingbing.

Beast plays the role of Princess Iron Fan in the second episode, domineering yet feminine.

Liu Yifei plays Niu Xiangxiang, the younger sister of the Bull Demon King.

Originally, Su Tong invited Bei Bi to play the role of Princess Iron Fan, but her agency refused to accept the announcement, thinking that Su Tong would suffer a big setback if she strayed into this industry, and didn't want Bei Bi to waste a few months.

But of course they wouldn't tell Su Tong explicitly, using the schedule conflict as an excuse to prevaricate him.

At that time, Su Tong became angry. He hung up the phone and told Zhang Xin to block all the artists of this agency, including Bei Bi. As long as there are his TV, movies and programs, no artist from this agency can be allowed to appear.

Zhang Xin agreed with both hands, and Beibi only participated in one episode of "Fairies Down to Earth", and gained more than any special guest, and went straight to catch up with the seven fixed fairies.

Bei Bi has a strong sense of artistic ability and can let go. She is a born artist.

But it's not for my use, Su Tong sighed.

Filming is not the same as it was seen when it was broadcast, starting from the beginning and filming one scene after another.In order to save time, usually several plots appear in the same background, and they will be shot continuously.

For example, something happened somewhere in the first part, and after a lot of plots, something happened in this place in the second part, and the director will shoot them all to save time, manpower, material resources, etc.

Even the lead actors don't know what the show will look like after it has been edited and produced in post.

The crew filmed smoothly for three months without too many accidents. Unlike in the previous life, when the film was co-produced in Hong Kong, there were many frictions between the crews of the two places, mainly because Hong Kong people looked down on mainlanders.

Not here in Sutong, the filming went very smoothly, the crew was friendly, and after three months of living in the desert, everyone lost a lot of weight.

The second season of "Love Apartment" ended in the summer premiere, and it is still being broadcast on various TV stations and video sites, which is even more popular than the first season.

In this way, with the funds in place, Yang Feifei not only paid back most of the 1000 million Su Tong, but also often gave extra meals to the crew.

"Are you satisfied with the effect?" During the rest, Yang Feifei said to Su Tong who also lost weight.
