Dreams of the Fragrant River

Chapter 84



: Eighty-Four [Fixing And Digging]

“Move this screen over… Yes, just put it there, a little on the left…”

Kang Jianfei was in command of the scene, while the other two martial artists borrowed from Hong Jiaban were sawing the legs of the stool, and saw only a trace of wood veneer, which would cause impact damage during the fight later.

Chen Mingsheng followed Kang Jianfei to help and stepped aside when the filming was about to start. He thought that he would be able to show his talents after coming to the crew of “Mr. Zombie”, but he didn’t expect that he could only add some details and omissions to Kang Jianfei. The general art design of the film was already done by Kang Jianfei himself.

Chen Mingsheng asked Zhong Zhiwen, who had adjusted the camera position: “Mr. Zhong, the previous scenes were all art directed by Director Kang?”

Zhong Zhiwen smiled and said, “Aren’t you surprised? I was also surprised when I was just filming with him. The lens design was basically completed, and there was nothing to do without me as a director of photography.”

Chen Mingsheng sighed: “Director Kang is really a versatile person!”

Zhong Zhiwen said: “Not only that, his habit of making movies is very unique. It seems that before the filming starts, he already has the whole film and pictures in his head. During the pre-production, he already had a complete picture. The sub-shot script was completed by one person without any consultation with Meizhi and the photographer at all.”

“Aren’t you joking?” Chen Mingsheng asked in surprise. There are not many directors in the world who can do this. When filming with such a director, the work will be very easy and fast, but it often gives people a sense of frustration. Because people like Chen Mingsheng and Zhong Zhiwen feel that their talents have nowhere to show, and they can only follow Kang Jianfei to fill in the gaps.

Of course, you can learn a lot from following Kang Jianfei’s filmmaking, because he often inadvertently reveals a lot of techniques and concepts of filmmaking in later generations, which is very valuable for today’s filmmakers.

For example, Hu Juncai, who recorded for Kang Jianfei on the spot, and Chen Xunqi, who was an assistant director, learned quickly. As long as they follow Kang Jianfei to make a movie or two, they may be able to direct them independently.

Yuan Hua, who was dressed up as a zombie boss, came on stage, jumped up and slammed Lou Nanguang’s neck, and the latter flew to the side immediately.

“Crack! Come again.” Chen Xunqi, who had officially become the executive director, shouted, but Lou Nanguang jumped in the wrong position when he was “pushed” out, and did not break the preset stool.

Lou Nanguang fell three times and finally fell right, and Lin Zhengying also appeared in a short coat with an ink fountain. Kang Jianfei and Lin Zhengying, holding the ink bucket line from left to right, intercepted the zombie dressed up by Yuan Hua.

Huang Shrimp, who originally played Li Saifeng’s father, has long since finished his drama. At this time, he is in charge of commanding and operating Weiya, and sometimes he also makes a cameo appearance as a dragon and tiger martial artist in person.

As soon as Kang Jianfei and Lin Zhengying rushed over, Huang Shrimp gestured to the operator, and the two of them pulled Weiya together, and the zombie flew back immediately.

…………

…………

Eight zombie prop models in official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty were placed in a circle in the center of the main room.

Yuan Hua was wearing clothes made of insulating material, looked at the lighter in Lin Zhengying’s hand, and asked worriedly, “Won’t it really burn me?”

Lin Zhengying frowned and said solemnly, “Probably not. Mr. Kang bought it for a lot of money, but I haven’t used it before.”

Yuan Hua was horrified by Lin Zhengying’s words, and was about to speak when Lin Zhengying put the heat shield over his head, then lit the lighter and touched him.

“Boom!”

The flames rushed up from Yuan Hua’s sleeves, and instantly ignited half of his body.

“Ah!” Yuan Hua shouted and struggled, waving his arms indiscriminately. Despite the insulation, he was still frightened, and he could even smell the burnt wig on his head.

Yuanhua struggled with the fire for 10 seconds, and Kang Jianfei immediately shouted, “Crack, put out the fire!”

“Bah…”

Four fire extinguishing bottles surrounded Yuan Hua, spraying foam on his body, quickly extinguishing the terrifying fire.

Yuan Hua took off his Qing Dynasty official uniform, which was burning to ashes, and opened his sleeves to see that the skin on his arms was all red, and he felt that his hair was scorched.

The rest were replaced with model props. When the zombie model ignited a raging flame, “Mr. Zombie” was finally completed.

It took 18 days from start to finish.

However, taking into account the preparations for the shooting and the post-production time in Hong Kong, it took at least 40 days.

Kang Jianfei clapped his hands and attracted everyone’s attention before he said: “This afternoon and evening, everyone can play casually and have a good time strolling around Taipei. But don’t make any mistakes. If anyone doesn’t show up when you leave tomorrow, then Swim back to Hong Kong from the sea by yourself!”

“Wow!”

There were cheers in the courtyard.

Kang Jianfei pointed to the messy shooting scene and said to Qi Chunwang, “Uncle Qi, you have to work harder and bring someone to clean up this place. In addition, I will hand over to the Cultural City, and I have already paid them the compensation for tearing down the walls of the wing. Negotiated.”

“Don’t worry, I will handle it.” Qi Chunwang smiled.

The Hong family class borrowed a total of five people this time, Yuan Hua, Huang Shrimp and other four people were pulling and pulling with Lin Zhengying outside.

When Kang Jian flew out, Lin Zhengying kept shaking his head and said, “I won’t go, I won’t go, you all go…”

Yuan Hua laughed and said, “If you come to Taipei once and don’t visit Beitou, isn’t that a waste of time?”

Lou Nan ran over naked and asked Lin Zhengying, “Brother Lin, I heard that you are going to Beitou to soak in hot springs and kill chickens? Count me in.”

Huang Shrimp coughed and reprimanded: “Just follow when you go, don’t make a loud noise.”

“Understand, understand!” Lou Nanguang immediately shut up.

Seeing that she couldn’t push back, Lin Zhengying saw Kang Jianfei coming, and immediately said while running: “Go on, I have something to do! Director, let’s discuss the later stage…”

“Hahahaha…” A few guys laughed when they saw Lin Zhengying running away in a panic, they didn’t really want to pull Lin Zhengying away from the ghost, they just wanted to make fun of him.

After Yuanhua and the others left, Lin Zhengying wiped a sweat and relaxed.

Kang Jianfei asked with a smile, “Lao Lin, are we happy to work together this time?”

“The speed of filming with Director Kang is really fast,” Lin Zhengying said sincerely, “If this film were to be directed by me, it would take at least a month and a half to shoot.”

Kang Jianfei pulled him to the corner and said in a very sincere tone: “Are you interested in working in our company? I’ll give you the treatment in the Bruce Lee era.”

Facing Kang Jianfei’s solicitation, Lin Zhengying was very moved.

Hong Jinbao’s Hong family class has too many talents, plus Yuanhua, Yuan Kui and other Yuan family members have a closer relationship with Hong Jinbao, Lin Zhengying’s position in Hong family class is actually very embarrassing~www.readwn.com~ Although Lin Zhengying has always been highly regarded by Hong Jinbao because of his excellent skills, this kind of respect is reserved.

Whatever good things happen, Hong Jinbao must first take care of the former senior classmates of the Yuan family, followed by Lin Zhengying and Huang Shrimp. This is human nature. Both Lin Zhengying and Huang Shrimp think it is normal, but Lin Zhengying, who used to be Bruce Lee’s right-hand man, is inevitably dissatisfied with his current situation.

Lin Zhengying hesitated, thinking about the pros and cons of keeping it: Kang Jianfei’s newly opened company does not have his own martial arts team. Home classes go hand in hand. But when Bruce Lee died and Lin Zhengying was in despair, it was Hong Jinbao who pulled him. If he just left the Hong family class and went to join Kang Jianfei, he would be really sorry.

After thinking about it, Lin Zhengying finally said, “Mr. Kang, I will help Brother Sanmao make two more movies. If the time comes…”

Before he could finish speaking, Kang Jianfei smiled and said, “I’ll be waiting for you at any time.”

If you don’t have your own team, you can only ask for help. It’s okay for others to give you face, but it’s uncomfortable when you don’t give face. If Lin Zhengying can be dug over, Kang Jianfei thinks it doesn’t matter if he is upset with Hong Jinbao because of this.

Cheng Long was able to become popular all over the world later, thanks to the family class he cultivated. If there is no marriage class, Cheng Long’s film is at least five points inferior!

Kang Jianfei’s next drama is going to be a police and bandit movie, and there must be many dragon and tiger martial artists to assist, so he is eager to dig Lin Zhengying. Otherwise, if he collides with Hong Jinbao during the filming time, he will not be able to borrow a good action team at all.
