Chapter 161: Establishing the status of a masterpiece
Zhao Wenzhuo, who also participated in the performance, was even happier.
In his previous fighting scenes, although he did fight for real, he only showed various postures in the early stages and then edited and synthesized them in the later stages.
Has there ever been a situation like today, where an opponent had a real fight with him?
The thrill of competitive fighting is unprecedented!
Not to mention Huang Zitao.
He was just a rookie before, but now he can fight one-on-one with Kung Fu superstar Zhao Wenzhuo, and hundreds of eyes are watching him at the scene, looking at his Kung Fu with envy.
At this moment, Huang Zitao felt that his vanity was about to explode.
Martial arts stars at the scene, such as Fan Shaohuang, Wu Jing, Shi Xiaolong, etc., also stared at the monitor screen with burning eyes.
During this period of time, under Su Chen's teaching, they have made rapid progress in both strength and martial arts.
It is foreseeable .
Now, as amazing as Zhao Wenzhuo and Huang Zitao are in front of the camera, their future fighting scenes will be just as amazing!
Su Chen was quite satisfied with the effect of this footage.
In fact, there are many versions of "Fist of Fury".
Su Chen's script is an improved version based on the 1995 version.
In the original version, the martial arts of some martial arts schools were too fancy and the degree of restoration was poor.
For example, the karate skills of Ishii Hideaki that appeared in this scene.
The characteristics of karate are that it emphasizes killing with one strike, simple and effective movements, and advocates straight-line attack.
In the original version, there were too many moves designed just for posing.
Su Chen's improved martial arts moves focus on practicality and authenticity.
The shot taken from the camera position set by Su Chen embodies a full sense of violent aesthetics.
If some lines are not powerful enough, Su Chen will make some modifications.
For example, the line by Huo Yuanjia just now.
Ishii Hideaki went around challenging other sects, injuring and killing countless martial artists from various sects.
In the original version, Huo Yuanjia just said "Why hit so hard!".
It doesn't sound as righteous as "Why kill innocent people!"
At the strong request of the on-site crew, Su Chen replayed this footage three times in a row.
Finally, everyone's desire was satisfied.
At this time, everyone also saw an unprecedented phenomenon.
In previous fighting scenes, various short shots and slow shots were spliced together.
But in the fight scene just now.
Su Chen actually used a special camera to capture a long shot of the entire fight!
There is no doubt that the effect presented by this long shot is absolutely genuine!
The use of this kind of lens can be said to have broken the rules and created history.
So far, only the fighting scenes directed by Su Chen dare to be shot in this way.
If other film and television works dare to use long lenses in fighting scenes, it would be equivalent to recording a major blunder scene!
This is a good start.
The subsequent shooting went even more smoothly.
A group of action stars then realized that Su Chen's control over the set was so powerful.
What surprised them even more was.
With Su Chen's guidance, their understanding and grasp of the characters reached a level that even they themselves could not believe.
The filming process was unexpectedly smooth.
Almost all the shots were shot in one go.
This is unprecedented in their previous filming experience.
Regarding all this, the crew members seemed unusually calm.
It would be unexpected if you had to reshoot all day long while filming under Su Chen.
When filming "Wulin Waijia", the crew was already familiar with this rhythm.
The brothers Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun who were watching from the side were even more shocked.
I have been in this industry for so many years.
This was the first time they saw that a martial arts scene could be filmed in this way.
From the day Su Chen started the special training class, the brothers witnessed Su Chen's real kung fu on the spot.
But they could not have imagined that on the set, these skills could be realistically presented.
You know, Zhao Wenzhuo, Fan Shaohuang and others already knew Kung Fu, but their previous martial arts scenes could not be filmed like this.
This made them realize.
An era of kung fu movies exclusively for Su Chen may be coming!
On the next day.
Zhong Lei suddenly brought a girl to Su Chen:
"Xiaochen, this is the assistant the company hired for you."
"Try it for a few days first. If it doesn't suit you, we'll replace you."
Su Chen took a look at the girl, who had a wheat-colored complexion. The look in her eyes that met his was firm and fanatical.
As soon as he saw her temperament, Su Chen knew that this was a girl who could endure hardships.
Don’t ask Su Chen how he figured it out.
Su Chen has seen too many girls from orphanages with similar temperaments, because they have to struggle for their own lives at a young age.
At this moment, the girl looked at Su Chen with fanatical eyes and began to introduce herself:
"Hello, Brother Chen! My name is Lu Lanlan."
"If you need anything in the future, just let me know!"
Well, actually, Lu Lanlan is from Northwest China, and she is one of the students who received funding from Su Chen’s donation.
She likes painting, but her family is extremely poor. As you can imagine, her family cannot afford such an expensive profession as painting.
It was Su Chen's financial support that made her dream of going to college come true.
Helped her get into the School of Fine Arts of Huaqing University!
She applied for the position of Xingyi's assistant with great admiration.
She just thought that if she joined Xingyi, she might have a chance to meet Brother Chen!
After all, for a family like hers, working part-time is a must. Part-time work is not part-time work anywhere.
I never expected this.
After joining Xingyi, she directly became Brother Chen’s assistant!
At this moment, Lu Lanlan was so excited that she could hardly control herself!
But of course.
Lu Lanlan didn't plan to reveal all her secrets. She was worried that if she did that, everyone would look at her strangely!
Zhong Lei chuckled: "This assistant was selected by the Human Resources Department after multiple rounds of screening. He has strong abilities in all aspects."
"Besides, she's also a huge fan of yours."
Seeing that the other party was so sincere, Su Chen had no choice but to accept it.
It’s free, and the people are already here, how can you refuse?
"Thank you, Mr. Zhong."
At this time, Zhong Lei took a step closer and said softly:
"The wave of people smearing you online has died down after we sent out a warning letter! Although we didn't catch any substantial evidence this time, it's still those few people! If they dare to mess around again, we will make them look bad!"
"Xiao Chen, just focus on filming. Leave the off-stage matters to us!"
It would be great if we could create another hit like “Wulin Waijiao”!
Su Chen nodded: "Thank you."
Although Su Chen is not afraid of haters, it would be better if no one hated him.
“Do a good job!”
Zhong Lei patted Su Chen lightly, then walked away very tactfully.
Just like that, from then on, Su Chen had a female assistant by his side.
Many of the external liaison tasks that Assistant Zhong Lei used to help handle have been transferred to Lu Lanlan.
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye, ten days passed.
The filming of "Fist of Fury" is going very smoothly and one third of the progress has been completed.
At the same time, "Wulin Waijia" also came to an end.
That night, the ratings of "Wulin Waijia" hit a new high, reaching an incredible 10%!
This shocked the entire Internet.
In this age of flourishing entertainment, such ratings are simply unique!
Moreover, the Douban score of this drama has reached an outrageous 9.8 points!
This move established the historical status of "Wulin Waijiao" as a masterpiece.
But of course, some are happy while others are sad.
In a small villa.
Wei Dasun and Zhang Dada got together again.
They were extremely depressed as they saw the entire internet was flooded with information about Su Chen and "Wulin Wai Zhuan".
Wei Dasun: "We can't just let it go like this!"
"So what if a warning letter was issued?"
"I feel unhappy when I see that the whole internet is full of news praising Su Chen!"
