Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang
Chapter 796
"How do you convince investors to invest in such a movie, Mr. Wu," Billy Christo asked.
"Not convinced." Wu Yusen shook his head.
"Without persuasion, can investors directly invest in such a film that is deeply influenced by other movies and still have no script." Billy Christo didn't pretend to be shocked at this time, he was really shocked.
"No." Wu Yusen thought for a while and said: "When there is this idea, it is difficult to talk to investors and bosses about this concept because it is necessary to make such a movie in Hong Kong.
I want to make a story about a police detective and a killer. This is because the detective wants to catch the killer. He must first understand the killer. He must enter the world first. You know him before you can catch him. The result is because This understanding has turned into a kind of sympathy.
If you tell such a story to the investor, he will not understand it, and it is difficult to imagine what kind of movie the story is like.
But fortunately, I had one. At that time, the boss thought that I would make a movie like the third episode. Fortunately, my production partner Tsui Hark understood very well.
So far, he and I are the most tacit partners, and he supports me very much, but at that time, there was just such an idea and there was no script.
Moreover, when shooting at that time, another problem arose. For themes like this, I originally wanted to use new actors, new actors, not so popular actors, because this movie is more personal and not so commercial.
At that time, I was already the first big director to break the Hong Kong box office record. The environment at that time was because Zhou Run's acting became even more popular. When film dealers all over Southeast Asia wanted Zhou Run, my play would have been without Zhou Run. Can't make it.
Later, Zhou Run was very loyal.Without him, I couldn't make a whole year of filming. So I told him that the boss asked you to do it. In fact, I thought of him in my heart. He was very popular at that time, and two or three sets of films were filming every day, very popular.Later, he told his boss that he promised to perform my play, plus Li Xiuxian and Xu Ke, and then he had the opportunity to film this play.
When I wanted to make this scene, I didn’t have a script, and I didn’t know what the exhibition of this story was like. Because of a creator, I think romance is the most painful, and romance is often not so easy to understand.
One very interesting thing, I made half of this movie, and all the staff didn't know what the style of the play was, what the play was about, and that was something later.
Before the script, I encourage everyone to come out and make a movie. When creating a movie, it’s best to have a creative partner. At that time, Xu Ke was my producer. I just told him about my idea. I said this. The police detective and the killer, apart from a sympathy between them, but there is also a respect for each other's sportsmanship, and there is also a competition. I said that if a scene can be designed, in terms of a very lively form of sports, The scene of the assassination, I believe this atmosphere will be very shocking, there is also the feeling of two people competing with each other.
Before there was a script, there was a dragon boat competition. I immediately invited two photographers to shoot a documentary first. No matter what the future story exhibition was, I had this degree of freedom at that time. I took the whole dragon boat competition process and filmed first. Come down, take a quick and slow shot. In the future, considering the use of editing montages, after shooting the dragon boat, then I think about the story and start writing the outline. It will not start until a few months later.So when we created this movie, it was like this."
Hearing this, Billy Christo couldn't help interrupting Wu Yusen and said: "Mr. Wu, what you mean is that you let two photographers take pictures of the dragon boat race, but in fact, you don’t know how the content of this film can be taken. Can’t be used, right"
Wu Yusen nodded:'Yes.'
"God. If you don’t know if you can use it, you can get people to shoot. Do you have so much autonomy. If you can’t use it, wouldn’t the boss and the producer accuse you of wasting your investment?" Billy Christo was shocked Everyone started shouting to God.
"Our boss will not accuse me. Because he believes me." Wu Yusen said confidently and gratefully: "Our boss, Mr. Feng Qiao, told me from the very beginning when I joined the company,
Wu Yusen first buried Qiao Feng and said that the concept of the bloody duo was to say that Qiao Feng did not understand Qiao Feng, and dissed Qiao Feng, the best Oscar screenwriter.
It's over, now I'm very good at taking the opportunity to give Qiao Feng a flattering.
After taking the opportunity to flatter, Wu Yusen breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the boss, now you can’t blame me. I said before that if you don’t understand, you just follow how you taught you to attract attention. Now I slapped my ass, you can't hold a grudge.
Billy Christo didn’t know Wu Yusen’s inner activities. He just wanted to satisfy his curiosity. He asked curiously: "Mr. Wu, let me add in. How long is the consumption ratio? Finally, Film and film.
Wu Yusen shook his head with a smile, and said with a guilty conscience: "I'm sorry, I never counted, and I didn't dare to ask, nor did I dare to mention it to me. That seems to be hundreds of thousands of feet, 4o Tens of thousands of feet.
However, it took a few days to shoot 9o. When filming in Hong Kong, usually when the staff sign the contract with the actors, it starts from 45 days to 6o days. 6o days is the most. But the number of days I filmed and the money spent are all The average movie is doubled. My scene was filmed for more than 90 days. In Hong Kong, it also broke the record.
I estimate that I used 20,000 feet for the film.Because of my way of filming, I'm different from many directors' filming methods, because I don't have separate shots.
I only have an edited storyboard. I’m in Hong Kong. When we were filming, I took the shots he needed. The first shot you look at me, then you jump to the third shot and you nod, and the sixth shot. The whole sentence, shoot it over.
I don't. I am from every angle, long-range, medium-range, and close-range.Then I split the shots when editing.
Then I am shooting. When I was shooting, my work team had never touched on such subject matter and didn’t know my thoughts. It is also difficult for me to use words to explain the meaning of the picture and the style of the scene. kind.
I just told them that I hope Zhou Run was shot and stained with blood. That's what I thought."
"I got an idea and I shot it, and it's so classic and beautiful, it's as simple as that," Billy Christo asked.
"Well, it's that simple."
