Talking to the International Action Superstar, Brother Lian Jie!
The next day.
8:30 AM.
Shen Fei woke up at seven in the morning and had breakfast at the hotel. He wanted to go back to sleep, but he was informed by Ya Ya, who lived next door, that Brother Lian Jie was back!
They were about to go to the set to start shooting the first scene.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Shen Fei was a little puzzled." The first act's venue was just built last night. The earliest it will be completed is at eight this morning. Have you found the extras?"”
"Brother Lianjie only got back to H State at 7 am this morning. It's only been two and a half hours, and the first scene is about to start?”
Hearing Shen Fei's question, Ya Ya smiled faintly.
At the same time, there was a hint of reverence in her eyes, as if she could benefit from something. However, her tone was slightly reproachful as she said,"It's all because of you!"
Because of him?
What was going on?
Shen Fei was stunned.
Was it because he had revised the script and increased the production budget, so Brother Lianjie came to find him to 'denounce' him?
Seeing Shen Fei's confused look, Ya Ya said unhappily,"Because your script has been changed so well, and your acting skills are too suitable for the image of Qin Wang!”
"So, including Brother Lian Jie, Brother Zhen Dan, Sister Manyu, and Brother Chaowei, they all expressed their eagerness to start filming as soon as possible.”
"They are the top celebrities in the country, big shots in the industry. How could Sister Liu and Director Zhang dare to not satisfy their demands?”
" With sufficient funds, the props team and the scene design team finished the scenes overnight. The assistant directors in charge of the extras worked overtime. They contacted thousands of extras overnight and sent several waves of people to find the location of the maple leaf.”
When Shen Fei heard this, he subconsciously asked,"It's spring now. How can we find maple leaves?”
Ya Ya expected Shen Fei to ask a question and smiled,""I asked the same question back then, and the answer I got was…post-production! They only needed to shoot in the dense forest.”
Shen Fei nodded, secretly regretting that he did not have a melodramatic plot where the king of Qin led his troops to battle, met a female assassin, and developed feelings for her in the dense forest…
He put away his unrealistic thoughts.
On the way to the set, Shen Fei roughly understood the preparation work for the movie from Yaya and began to read their scripts.
Even though Shen Fei had the support of international acting skills, his emotions and thoughts could already be easily integrated into the characters in the plot.
However, this was a script that he had changed.
Now, she was in such a hurry to shoot it.
It was inevitable that other actors would not understand the characters and the background of the story, causing it to be difficult for them to integrate their emotions. Their lines would be dry, and their actions would be unnatural.
For example, Ya Ya at this moment.
She repeated the seemingly simple line several times, but she still could not find the fear, unwillingness, and anger of the character during the duel. She spoke it as if she was drinking water or eating food.
This was very dramatic.
It was just that he could express it more smoothly than those celebrities who only had " 12345 " lines.
To put it bluntly, he was not sincere.
Therefore, Shen Fei couldn't stand it anymore. Putting aside his personal feelings, he personally instructed," First of all, Kisaragi's role in the movie is to be a maid, followed by a swordsman. Therefore, her words, including her actions, must show that she is timid and introverted because she is a servant. In front of her master, she always feels inferior.”
" But at the same time, she is an outstanding swordsman. Therefore, her cowardice and introversion are expressed in her words and actions with a sense of ruthlessness.”
"Especially during the battle between her and the female master, Fei Xue, the first thing she has to do is to show fear and then ruthlessness. Therefore, in terms of words and actions, she has to show hesitation or panic.”
With Shen Fei's detailed explanation, Yaya suddenly felt enlightened.
When he tried the lines that were difficult to say and sounded awkward, he immediately felt much smoother.
In the next ten minutes of driving.
After Shen Fei's guidance, Yaya quickly integrated into the role of Ru Yue.
During the performance, every movement, every look, every expression, and every sentence seemed to come from the maid's mouth.
And Shen Fei was Ya Ya's master for dozens of minutes…
This was 'voluntarily' done!
Forty minutes later.
When Shen Fei and the others arrived at the set, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.
The scene was already set up.
Lighting, recording, cameras, and other equipment were also set up and officially started to operate.
At this moment, Shen Fei and the others followed the direction of the equipment and noticed a burly figure walking towards the main hall in the central aisle outside the palace.
"He is Brother Lianjie!"
Ya Ya recognized the other party's identity at a glance, and her face was immediately filled with reverence. At the same time, she whispered excitedly to Shen Fei beside her.
"He's recognized as an international martial arts superstar. It was also because of his love for martial arts movies that Sister Liu had prepared this movie!”
Shen Fei nodded. He had graduated from the Film Academy, so he had naturally heard of Brother Lian Jie's deeds and achievements.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a role model in the industry, a leading figure in the domestic martial arts movies, and a true big shot in the entertainment industry.
However, Shen Fei was a little dissatisfied with Brother Lian Jie's performance.
"Crack!"
Five minutes later, Brother Lian Jie finished filming the scene and immediately looked for Director Zhang. He said anxiously,"Director, I'm not very satisfied with this scene.”
"I keep feeling like something is missing. Can you let me retake it and find the feeling again?”
Director Zhang Kai was slightly taken aback before he smiled and said,""Alright, Lian Jie, you haven't changed your mind! She was already such a big shot, yet she was still so serious when filming a movie, striving for perfection! As expected of a superstar."
Brother Lianjie smiled.”
Director Zhang looked at the follow-up and frowned slightly."Very good. He vividly displayed the bearing and valor of the strongest assassin in the world, Nameless.”
"I didn't find anything wrong with it.”
After watching the replay, Brother Lian Jie frowned and shook his head.""No…I feel like something is still missing, Director Zhang…"
Before he could finish his sentence this time, he saw Director Zhang pointing outside the filming area and smiling."Yo, Teacher Shen Fei is here!"
As he spoke, Director Zhang stood up and patted Brother Lian Jie's back. Then, he walked out of the filming area with him and came in front of Shen Fei.
"Teacher Shen Fei! Let me introduce you. The person beside me is…"
Before Director Zhang could finish introducing Brother Lian Jie, Shen Fei hurriedly smiled and said,"Hello, Teacher Lian Jie. I'm the newcomer, Shen Fei. You can call me Xiaofei.”
Shen Fei's introduction made Brother Lian Jie's impression of this talented and good-looking young man double. He immediately took the initiative to reach out his hand and shake hands with the other party.
"To be able to write such a good script and use your acting skills to convince my three old friends, it's not an exaggeration to call you a teacher!”
Since Brother Lian Jie had said so, Shen Fei did not want to be too pretentious. He chatted with the other party for a while and then heard him ask.
"Teacher Shen Fei, when I was filming the scene of entering the palace, I felt that something was wrong. Can you give me some pointers?”
Shen Fei smiled,"It's hard to say if it's advice. Let's discuss it simply."”
Then, Shen Fei expressed his opinion with a relaxed expression.
"Brother Link's scene just now did have a big problem.”
"The most obvious and crucial problem is the mentality and attitude.”
Brother Lian Jie was puzzled by Shen Fei's analysis. He frowned and asked,""Mentality and attitude? I believe that as an expert of the current era and an assassin with a heavy responsibility, when Wu Ming walked into the Qin Emperor's Palace, he should have puffed out his chest and raised his head, displaying an imposing manner.”
" However, when I stepped into the hall and thought about the scene where Nameless was going to conduct a body search in public, I felt that the mental activity in front of the hall was contradictory.”
Shen Fei nodded,"That's a problem of mentality."”
He didn't keep her in suspense and continued,"Nameless is indeed an expert of the current era.”
"However, although the King of Qin was still the King of Qin at that time, he already had the strength to unify the six countries. There were tens of thousands of soldiers in the palace.”
"Of course, if the theme of the movie is to highlight assassins and heroes, and he is going to assassinate the king of Qin, then Wu Ming indeed has nothing to fear.”
"But now, I have to show that I have the world in my heart, that I have the heart to die. I don't want to go as a dying person, but as an emperor of a generation, a person who can give the world peace!”
"Then the emotions he displayed should not be fear…but respect, conflict, helplessness, and even some timidity.”
After listening to Shen Fei's analysis, Brother Lian Jie felt as if he had seen through the clouds. He immediately thanked Shen Fei and nodded with a smile,""I understand. Thank you, Teacher Shen Fei!”
"But…I still have a question. It's about the logic of the plot…"
"That's right. Since Wu Ming knows that the King of Qin shouldn't be killed, why does he have to assassinate him?”
"Don't kill him, go into hiding, or live on your own. Isn't that a good choice?”
Shen Fei seemed to have expected the other party's doubts and immediately gave the answer,"Brother Lianjie thinks this way because he's thinking in the modern world and neglects the social environment and education of the characters in the Warring States Period.”
"More importantly, I neglected Nameless's identity. He is an assassin who exists to assassinate.”
"During the Warring States Period, a person's reputation was more important than their life. Moreover, Wu Ming was an assassin who excelled in swordsmanship for revenge.”
"In the ten years that Wuming practiced his swordsmanship, the belief that supported him was to assassinate the King of Qin and save the country!”
" And when one day, he understood that only the King of Qin could unify the six states and make the world peaceful so that the people could live a good life, he instantly lost the belief in revenge and lost the only spiritual sustenance of assassinating the King of Qin. Then, it meant that his past was all in vain.”
At this point, Shen Fei paused and said meaningfully,"What's the point of him continuing to live in this world?”
"Thus, Broken Sword, who understood the concept of 'the world,' chose to die. Flying Snow, who was unwilling to give up, also chose to die.”
"This is their fate as swordsmen. From the moment they chose to assassinate the King of Qin, their fate was decided.”
"This is also in line with the mindset of an assassin who faces death unflinchingly!”
As soon as Shen Fei said this, Brother Lian Jie had goosebumps all over his body. A heroic spirit instantly ignited in his heart!
Let's talk about Yaya at this moment.
She had been standing beside the two of them and did not say a word at all…
This Shen Fei…Did he really just graduate from the Film Academy?
How long has it been?
How could he have such a thorough understanding of the background of the story and the psychology of the characters?
Especially now…
He could actually give a lecture to the current international martial arts superstar, the industry's role model, Brother Lian Jie?
"Then what about the useless performance he showed previously…"
Yaya could not help but clench her fists and think to herself,""Is he really acting as me?!”
