Dreams of the Fragrant River

: Nine hundred and fifty-four [when filming is in progress]

"what!"

Li Jiaxin yawned and turned over. Except for Sophie Marceau, who was still snoozing on the bed, the others were already washing up. It was only before 7 o'clock at this time. If she had to be busy filming, she also wanted to stay for a while. After all, she was exhausted last night.

Lin Qingxia is about to leave after breakfast. She has been very leisurely these past few years. In addition to raising children at home, she also learned pottery and painting, occasionally writing a few essays, reading novels and movies to pass the time.

Living like this is the dream of Brigitte Lin in her girlhood. It would be even more complete if she could have a family-friendly husband.

Her son Kang Jiale is already 7 years old and will start elementary school in a few months. Lin Qingxia has been busy choosing schools recently. She has to have good school conditions and a little bit of remoteness so as not to be harassed by paparazzi all day long.

Today's breakfast was made by Aishwarya herself, and it was full of curry flavor. Lin Qingxia felt that the taste was good, but Li Jiaxin was quite unhappy. She called her assistant to buy breakfast at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. The price was not expensive, only two or three hundred yuan, but the style was obviously different.

Because he was in a hurry to go to the crew, Kang Jianfei quickly finished his breakfast. Li Jiaxin had to keep up, and called when she went out: "Axi, send my breakfast directly to the crew, remember not to get cold."

Kang Jianfei said speechlessly, "Just slowly get hungry."

Li Jiaxin said coquettishly, "Brother Fei, people are not used to it."

Kang Jianfei was too lazy to deal with this coquettish bitch, so he let the driver drive the car, and Aishwarya leaned on him to make up for her sleep.

The car quickly arrived at the destination, and there was even a traffic jam outside Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City. Such a remote place, because of the prosperity of the film industry, is blocked every morning.

Although the Hong Kong film market has been sluggish, the film and television city is getting better and better. Despite the fact that DreamWorks is reducing production, and that many small and medium-sized film companies are closing down, in fact, the annual output of Hong Kong films continues to increase.

In 1992, the annual output of Hong Kong films was 376, which increased to 426 in 1993 and 589 in 1994.

Why does this happen?

Because the average release days of Hong Kong films are shortening, countless cinemas are short of film sources. Some small directors can make a film in half a month with a random investment of 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, and a few actors and behind-the-scenes actors.

These **** films would never have been released in theaters before. But now he cares so much about it, he can make a movie, anyway, the screening hall is empty and empty. As for most of the investment, it can be recovered. If the box office is not good, you can sell vcd.

Now Hong Kong audiences, as soon as they enter the theater, they are basically met with bad movies, which greatly dampens their enthusiasm for watching movies.

However, for Tseung Kwan O Studios, the increase in film production is a good sign. There is an endless stream of film crews renting studios and costume streets every day, and even renting filming equipment and costumes and props, making a lot of money.

The so-called skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and the overseas box office of Hong Kong films is also very strong, but it has dropped sharply over the years.

In 1992, 40% of the total box office in Taiwan was contributed by Hong Kong films, the proportion in South Korea was 13%, and the market share of Hong Kong films in Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore and other places was also about 8%.

By the end of last year, this figure had dropped sharply, with 32% remaining in Taiwan and 9% in South Korea. However, because Golden Harvest and Oriental Pictures are actively building theater chains in Southeast Asia, the market share of Hong Kong films in these regions has increased. Malaysia has increased from 7.8% to 15%, and Indonesia and Singapore have also increased to more than 10%.

This is enough to show the brilliance of Hong Kong films. In 20 years, it is difficult to imagine that in conservative and xenophobic South Korea, one-tenth of the total annual box office of films is sold by Chinese-language films.

In the underground parking lot of the Studio City, the crew members have arrived one after another. Especially the makeup artist and the zombie group have already laid the foundation, and only the director can come over to guide and correct the makeup.

Xu Ke is already sitting there and drawing the storyboard. This guy's hand-painted sub-shots are a must, and it feels like a blockbuster can be produced with just a few strokes. Zhao Wenyu squatted beside Xu Ke and asked questions and suggestions from time to time. This young man still loves learning, and Xu Ke was very optimistic about him.

Cousin Wu Ruiqing got divorced two years ago. In order to **** the custody of his son, he paid his ex-wife 2 million yuan at one time, and then he will pay 6,000 yuan for living expenses every month.

The once weak boy has become mature and sophisticated in his thirties. When Kang Jian flew to the crew, Wu Ruiqing was criticizing the director of the field: "What are you doing, it's almost starting up, and you told me that there's not enough dry ice? If it's not enough, hurry up and get it!"

The head of the set said with a bitter face: "The logistics of the studio made a mistake and gave our dry ice to other crews. The spare goods in the warehouse are simply not enough, because our usage is too large."

There is a plot in "Resident Evil", the ground is full of white fog, which requires dry ice to create the effect. And one shot is more than ten hours, and the consumption of dry ice is very large.

Wu Ruiqing said depressedly: "Then go to the dry ice factory to pick up the goods."

The yard manager said: "It's already shipped there, but I'm afraid it will take two hours to arrive. You know, it's rush hour, and the road is very congested."

"How long will our dry ice last?" Wu Ruiqing asked.

"It will be used up in less than an hour," said the field manager.

Wu Ruiqing immediately ran over to explain the situation to Kang Jianfei. Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "It's alright, I won't be able to wait for long~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Go ahead and do your own thing."

The crew is a big team, and accidents can happen anytime, anywhere.

Before the dry ice problem was solved, a zombie actor with a heavier role in the scene went to the hospital with a stomachache. Kang Jianfei had no choice but to pick up a field attendant and ask the other party to quickly put on make-up, and let the action director teach him a play while putting on make-up.

Since we are going to make Hong Kong films, we cannot lose the fine tradition of Hong Kong films. In Kang Jianfei's version of "Resident Evil", martial arts scenes have been added in many places, especially the heroine Alice, who is more powerful than the original version, which is also the reason why Li Jiaxin does urgent training.

Of course, the movements designed by martial arts instructors are more inclined to realistic modern fighting. This piece of Kang Jianfei did not dare to let Xu Ke intervene, for fear that Old Monster Xu would turn "Resident Evil" into a flying urban martial arts film.

Xu Ke's task is more to create pictures and atmosphere. He is very imaginative about this. Back then, he was stunned to shoot some scenes of "A Chinese Ghost Story" in 2D with a 3D effect.

It was almost 9 a.m. when everything was ready. Li Jiaxin, Tom Cruise, Aishwarya and others stood in front of the camera.

""Resident Evil" 8 scenes, 3 scenes, 1 time, Akesh!"

A zombie with half of its face rotted walked towards the leading actors with a lame leg. Everyone was so frightened that they backed away, and then someone fired several shots in a row, but the zombies rushed in front of them, and Li Jiaxin, who was hanging the wire, flew away and kicked the zombies away.

"Crack, the landing is too ugly, come back!" (To be continued.)
