Chapter 304 There’s a lot to be done
The next day, Zhang Yuan finally had his part.
"Come on, take off your clothes."
Wang Jing pointed at Zhang Yuan in front of the camera and spoke.
The scene here is the Valley of Evil.
It is the residence of the ten evil men.
However, in "The Little Fish and the Flowerless", half of the ten evil men were deleted.
The famous "Twelve Constellations" scenes in the original work were almost completely deleted.
Only Wang Jing would dare to make such a major overhaul.
The martial arts dramas produced by TVB at that time were always criticized for not being consistent with the original works, and none of them made such huge changes as his.
According to the setting of this drama, the Valley of Evil is not only a prison for the evil people, but also the residence of the ghost doctor Chang Baicao.
The character Chang Baicao was added to introduce the film's leading female character, Su Ying.
According to the original setting, Su Ying is the adopted daughter of Wei Wuya, the leader of the “Twelve Constellations”. But now the “Twelve Constellations” have been deleted, so don’t we have to add a new setting?
So the couple Ghost Doctor Chang Baicao and Poison Queen Su Rushi were created.
Logically speaking, this person is Xiaoyuer's official partner, but the limelight was stolen by the original supporting character named Murong Xian, nicknamed Little Fairy.
When adapting the original novel "The Twins of Heroes", Wang Jing mixed a lot of Jin Yong elements into this Gu Long work.
For example, Su Ying's parents, these two miracle doctors, are similar to Hu Qingniu and his wife in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" in terms of both their personalities and background stories.
One is a medical immortal, the other is a poison immortal. The couple separated because of their different ideas on curing diseases.
The story and setting of the hermit "Troublemaker" who trapped the villains on the island directly adopted the routine of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" where Duan Yu kowtowed sincerely to the jade statue and triggered the mechanism to obtain the secret book.
After Xiao Yuer kowtowed sincerely to the remains of the Troublemaker, he obtained the secret book.
There is a lot of plagiarism in the world, and Wang Jing has figured it out.
The scene at this time is a wooden house with some cheap-looking antique decorations and a large vat in the middle.
It must be said that when it comes to props and scenes in costume films, big beards are indeed much better.
But even though it is made several times more sophisticatedly, its cost is still lower than that of Wang Jing.
The total budget of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" was only 3000 million.
"The Little Fish and the Flowerless" reached 4000 million.
Even if we put aside the issue of Big Beard withholding the actors' wages, I'm afraid the production cost would still be lower than this movie.
The special effects, scenes, and props of these two films are not at the same level at all, and "The Return of the Condor Heroes" is much better.
This shows how high the salaries of these Hong Kong artists and staff are!
Looking at the large brown water tank, Zhang Yuan suddenly thought of the night when all the actors in the crew of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" had diarrhea.
"The manure vat that I smashed when the bearded man fell in it looked like this."
"Hey, take off your clothes."
"You're a man, why are you shy?" Wang Jing said again.
He thought to himself, I spent 800,000 yuan on the film's salary, and you're still hesitant to take off your clothes.
When he gave Xu Jingjiang 80,000 yuan, he took off all his clothes.
"What are you afraid of?" Wang Jing urged.
Forget about the dressing room. This poor crew, who knew where their money went, built a wooden screen in the corner for Zhang Yuan, with a folding stool inside and a towel on it, and then... nothing happened.
That's all the property.
Even the towels are relatively thin, so stingy.
It was a hot day and I wasn’t wearing much anyway, so I took it off in no time.
He took off his underwear because he had to soak in the water and he couldn't keep it on.
Then it will all be wet.
He wrapped himself in a towel and staggered out.
"go in."
Wang Jing pointed to the water tank.
Because Yan Nantian became a vegetable due to the poison attacking his heart, the miracle doctor gave him medicinal baths every day.
The so-called medicinal bath is just putting a bunch of unknown spices in clean water.
After stepping into the vat and smelling the floating spices, Zhang Yuan felt like he was a piece of stewed meat...
"Throw out the towel!" Wang Jing shouted again.
"The setting is naked. There are medicinal herbs on the water anyway, so there will be no exposure."
"On the contrary, if you bring a white towel, it will be more obvious in the camera."
Zhang Yuan shrugged, always feeling like he was filming Wang Jing’s old profession... a Category III movie.
He would give some face to the actresses and cover them with something like a tube top, but the men just ignored him completely.
Zhang Yuan handed the wet towel to the stage manager and put it aside with water dripping from it.
"Why did you pull me here?"
At this time, off-camera, Yang Xue said to Fan Bingbing beside her: "There is no scene for me right now. I still want to read the script and study it for a while."
"Hey, I saw in the script that today's scene is Zhang Yuan's nude scene. Are you not interested?" With a sly smile, Fan Bingbing pulled Yang Xue, whom she had just met, to the set.
"He was shirtless yesterday." Yang Xue replied.
"She has a nice figure, but I've seen her before, nothing special."
"That's different. Look, today he is 'a beauty emerging from her bath.'" Fatty Fan said with a snicker, "I'll steal his clothes later and let him wear mine."
As Fan Bingbing spoke, she took out a pink women's sweatshirt from her small bag with the words "I'm a girl" written in large letters on it.
"Hehehe..." Hearing this, Yang Xue, who had been quite steady, also laughed when she thought of how he looked yesterday wearing a small-sized women's clothing.
He learned bad habits from Fan Bingbing.
"I swear today that I will cure you, otherwise..."
After turning on the machine, Zhang Yuan lay motionless in the tank with his eyes closed, resting.
It feels so good to make this money.
The role of the genius doctor Chang Baicao is played by Teacher Zhang Shuangli, who is famous for his fashionable style and has appeared in many film and television dramas.
"Otherwise, I will never leave the valley!"
"Card!"
"Teacher Zhang, please be more resolute when you're doing your lines."
"no problem."
How the director and actors coordinate and shoot seems to have nothing to do with Zhang Yuan.
He was just wearing a dyed blond wig, holding the edge of the tub with his arms, taking a bath there.
Although the water in the tank is cold, it is just right for cooling off in the hot weather.
If he hadn't kept reminding himself that he was filming, he would have probably fallen asleep.
Since there is more than one scene where he is soaking in the water, it is like the army coming and going in droves. He does not move, but the other actors and scenes keep changing.
"Hello."
Fan Bingbing and Yang Xue were leaning against the window with their buttocks sticking out, watching Zhang Yuan filming when a gentle female voice suddenly came from behind them.
Speaking of which, both of these names are cold, one is ice and the other is snow.
The two turned around, straightened up immediately and smiled.
"Hello!"
The person who came was none other than Yuan Quan, the actress who played the film’s leading female role, Su Ying!
She is one of the four famous golden flowers of the 96 class of the Central Academy of Drama. Although she is still young, she has already gained a great reputation in the entertainment industry.
Qin Hailu, Zhang Ziyi, Hu Jing, Zeng Li and Mei Ting are all her classmates.
Even if the timeline is extended 30 years forward and backward, the Chinese Academy of Drama has never had a star-studded class like the Class of 96.
Even though they are middle-aged, they are still the backbone of the Chinese film and television industry.
Among the girls in Class 96, some are doing well and some are not.
The best, of course, is Zhang Ziyi.
The bad ones are so bad that the audience can’t even remember their names.
But Yuan Quan is a relatively special one among them.
This person is a little different from others in both appearance and personality.
First of all, let’s talk about her appearance. She has sunken eye sockets, a high nose bridge and snow-white skin.
When he was in his teens and twenties, people would believe he was mixed-race if he dressed up a little.
In "Blue Love", which she collaborated with teacher Pan Yueming, the picture of 23-year-old Yuan Quan smiling sweetly in front of the camera is truly beautiful.
When they were in school, she had the best relationship with Zeng Li among all the girls in her class.
Because not only were they college classmates, they also studied at the secondary opera school affiliated to the Academy of Chinese Opera when they were young.
The two were old classmates and fellow townsmen from Jingzhou, but Zeng Li practiced the Da Qingyi role while she practiced the Huashan role.
Although she rarely wears revealing clothes, Yuan Quan actually has a pair of extremely long legs.
When she was in drama school, her legs were a full finger longer than other girls of the same height!
But these long legs caused her a lot of trouble.
Others could easily lift their legs and touch their foreheads, but her legs were too long and she couldn’t do that, which made the teacher very disgusted.
It doesn't matter whether the teacher dislikes it or not, I guess Xia Yu doesn't dislike it...his legs are good for years.
Not only was this person good-looking when she was young, her acting career was also enough to make others envious... Of course, except for Zhang Ziyi, she is a monster.
She filmed her first movie in her junior year, and after filming her second movie in her senior year, she won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actress.
The beginning is the peak!
Two years later, she won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actress.
She turned around and started acting in dramas. Not only did she win the Plum Blossom Award, she was also inducted into the Drama Centennial Hall of Fame when she was less than 30 years old, becoming the only woman there.
I went out to sing and won a bunch of awards. What a life against the will of heaven.
But unfortunately, this person's character is not so utilitarian, otherwise he would not have been able to live with Xia Yu.
At this time in 04, Yuan Quan was more famous than Fan Bingbing.
Because of his background in opera, this person has a very good manners and temperament, and he speaks and walks slowly.
However, this person has uneven shoulders, and it is quite obvious.
Fan Bingbing greeted her very warmly.
Firstly, she has strong public relations and communication skills. Secondly, Yuan Quan is not in direct competition with her, so she is naturally suitable to make friends with him.
"What are you looking at?"
"Shh." Fatty Fan put a finger beside his mouth: "Be gentle, we are watching Zhang Yuan acting naked."
Then she pointed at Yan Nantian in the water tank.
"Oh, I recognize him." Yuan Quan replied with a smile, his eyes shining.
"Hmm?" Fan Bingbing turned around and glanced at Teacher Yuan.
"She knows Zhang Yuan?"
"And the look she gave Zhang Yuan was quite gentle. Could it be that they had 'communicated' with each other?"
Just now she thought that Yuan Quan and herself were not in competition, but now she felt that there seemed to be some competition.
In fact, she was totally overthinking it.
Zhang Yuan had never seen or recognized Yuan Quan.
As for how Yuan Quan recognized him?
I have to mention one more person.
Director Huang.
Yes, he was the director of the Chinese Academy of Drama with whom Tong Yao studied in depth.
In the class of 96, this person was not yet the director, but happened to be Yuan Quan’s teacher!
Yuan Quan's second drama, the one that won her the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actress, is called "Spring Rhapsody".
The director of this film is Teng Wenji, who is also the father of the famous Teng father and son.
Because the role of Zhou Xiaomei in the film was set to be a Beijing Opera Drum performer, when selecting a female actress, Lao Teng immediately fell in love with Yuan Quan who had a background in opera.
But it is not clear whether it is the ability or the person that is attracted at first sight.
The style of the Teng father and son is quite famous in the circle.
Whether the young and beautiful Yuan Quan was picked and tasted by him is unknown to outsiders.
Even if you don't fall into the clutches of the devil, you are bound to suffer losses.
In addition, Yuan Quan is a relatively introverted and comfortable person, so she naturally dislikes and even hates the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry.
When she was in school, she knew that her teacher Huang had serious problems with his work style.
When I heard that this old guy was fired a while ago, Yuan Quan was actually quite happy.
She also learned that in addition to Zhang Guoli, Shu Chang and a young actor named Zhang Yuan were also involved, so she paid special attention to it.
Only then did she recognize Zhang Yuan.
Due to some special circumstances, she did not attend the opening ceremony yesterday and just hurried here today.
"I wanted to see his performance live, but unfortunately he just didn't move." Yuan Quan sighed slowly.
"I've seen it, he acted well." Fan Bingbing said.
After a long time, director Wang Jing finally called cut.
"Zhang Yuan, get up."
It’s not that we’ve finished filming, it’s just that it’s time for lunch.
He was soaked in the water for the entire morning!
"Are you familiar with him?" Yuan Quan looked at Fan Bingbing who had stolen Zhang Yuan's clothes.
"We've filmed a scene together before, and this kid is really bad."
"Towel." Zhang Yuan waved to the stage manager beside him.
I can't get up naked.
Zhang Yuan took it and looked at it. It was still the wet towel, and there was no dry one.
After he had surrounded himself in the tank, he stood up and walked out.
There was no such cliché scene as the towel falling off, he tied it very tightly.
"Fuck!"
But after coming out, there was still a cry of surprise from the scene.
Then everyone present looked straight at the middle of his body.
Zhang Yuan looked down and saw the towel was there!
Towels are in.
But this towel is of poor quality and not particularly thick.
Once soaked in water, it becomes wet and looks even thinner.
Plus, he tied it so tightly that it fit very closely, so that the outline of three legs appeared in front of him.
Wang Jing raised his glasses and leaned forward.
"Pity!"
What he felt sorry for was that if this kid had this talent and was born a few years earlier, there would be no chance for Xu Jingjiang.
Wang Jingxin said that he had just seen him hesitate to enter the water and asked him what he was afraid of...
Now it seems that they may be afraid that we will feel inferior.
The three women by the window also looked over.
Yang Xue's cheeks were red. She lowered her head, and from time to time she secretly raised her eyelids to take a few more glances.
Yuan Quan took a deep breath, tensed his expression, and forced himself to remain calm.
But Fan Bingbing is more powerful.
Not only did he not blush, he even stretched his head forward, almost getting it stuck in the window frame.
“So exciting!”
"I think he will achieve great things in the future!" Fat Fan almost became envious.
"I also think he can achieve great things." Yuan Quan continued with a stern face.
"I wish him great success."
"I think he'll be very popular."
Yang Xue, who was standing by, listened to the two people talking in large characters and lowered her head in embarrassment.
Zhang Yuan finally noticed this and walked aside while covering his face with his hands.
"Was the machine on just now?"
"Open, what are you doing?"
"Leave the clip behind. In case there's a wealthy female investor who needs to be wooed, he might be able to film it and use it." Wang Jing said righteously.
All the Hong Kong team members around him nodded vigorously.
Not long after, Zhang Yuan, who came behind the screen to change clothes, let out a cry of grief.
"Fan Bingbing, give my clothes back to me!"
He had heard the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, but he didn't expect that with Fan Bingbing around, he would become the Weaver Girl.
But he didn't know that after seeing his "capital", Fan Xiaopang wanted to make him a gigolo.
Fan Bingbing brought a camera with her, wanting to take pictures of him wearing women's clothes.
But now I have changed my mind.
Picking up the clothes, he walked all the way to the screen.
"I'm just joking with you, don't be angry."
After saying that, he threw the clothes to him, then he lay down in front of the screen, looking inside through the gap in the curved screen with one eye.
Ziliu!
Fan Bingbing wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
Don't think that only men are greedy for women's bodies. It's just that most women hide it well and don't say it.
Zhang Yuan had good hearing and immediately noticed the other party's peeping behavior.
I poke!
"Ah!" Fat Fan screamed, covered one eye and ran away dejectedly.
He was very gentle, naturally because he was afraid of really hurting the other person.
Otherwise, with his finger strength, he could dig out the other person's eyeballs.
Fan Bingbing rubbed her eyes while running and couldn't help laughing.
"With him here, I can even grow my nails."
Zhang Yuan shook his head.
"One is wild, the other is coquettish."
"Sure enough, the two Bings are not people you can easily mess with."
