As for Fat Jack, he has already taken a plane to Suzhou Gardens to shoot some of the exterior scenes of this drama. It is hoped that after the filming of Huaguoshan is completed, the two groups will officially meet up and complete all filming, and then wait for post-production and editing.

In fact, the one who is as nervous as Yi Feiyang at this moment is Keanu Reeves. In this drama, he plays Erlang Shen, the last opponent of the Monkey King. As a foreign actor, he will interpret this Chinese mythological character.

As the traditional god of war in heaven, it can be said that Reeves is very stressed.

Reeves has always liked to thoroughly study the background of his characters when acting, and this time is no exception. In order to play Erlang Shen well, Reeves spent a lot of time studying this Chinese mythical character.

After research, Reeves became even more interested in Erlang Shen, especially because Erlang Shen was the product of his mother's affair with a mortal. Legend has it that his mother was the sister of the Jade Emperor, who secretly descended to earth because she envied the loving life in the world.

He met and married a scholar named Yang, and finally gave birth to a son, Erlang Shen.

Immediately afterwards, Reeves learned about the character of Erlang Shen. He did not have a very good relationship with the Jade Emperor, the big boss in heaven. He did not accept weakness or flattery. The most important thing was that he "listened to the propaganda but not the tune." In American terms, that is

A person hanging in the White House. He has a position but does not obey the president's orders and acts freely.

In short, Reeves' understanding of the character Erlangshen is that he is arrogant, very arrogant!

At this moment, all kinds of work are ready.

There were eight to nine hundred actors dressed as monkey soldiers from Huaguo Mountain and heavenly soldiers and generals. Everyone was in full formation.

"Director, there's no problem with the lighting!"

"The actors are in place!"

"Cameras in place!"

Everyone looked at Yi Feiyang with firm eyes.

There was an atmosphere of excitement and excitement in the crew. Yi Feiyang felt the same as them. After such a long period of hard work and countless days and nights of hard work, the film finally made its debut today.

It's about to be finalized.

Yi Feiyang, dressed as the Monkey King, stood up and smiled at everyone: "Everyone, this is the last day of filming. Everyone, shoot well. After the filming is completed, I will treat everyone to a drink!"

"good!"

"Nothing to say!"

A group of people were very excited and cheered.

"Start shooting!" Yi Feiyang picked up the guide tube and shouted loudly. The whole audience quickly got into the mood. At the same time, the two cameras of Fatty and Cindy started to rotate.

Medium shot.

White cloud rolling---The blower blows dry ice. Make a white cloud rolling costume.

The "Er Lang Shen" played by Keanu Reeves holds a three-pointed two-edged halberd and stands majestically in the "clouds".

The Monkey King facing him stood on the Flower and Fruit Mountain holding a golden hoop.

"Bold Monkey, I am the Heavenly War General Erlang Zhenjun. If you are interested, I will capture you quickly. If not, I will capture you and bring you to the Heavenly Court for questioning!" This paragraph of text is very difficult to pronounce, especially for Keanu Reeves.

It’s even bigger, but as an actor, the challenge is very difficult. I’ve recited it hundreds of times, and now it’s catchy.

"Hey, it doesn't matter whether you are the Erlang Zhenjun or the Sanlang, Silang and Wulang Zhenjun! I am the Monkey King, the Monkey King. If you want to capture me, you must first ask about the golden cudgel in my hand!"

"What a monkey, I think you won't shed tears until you see the coffin!"

"Why are you talking so much? You'd better take my stick first!" The Monkey King raised his golden cudgel and hit Erlang Shen.

"Well done!" Erlang Shen shouted, wielding his three-pointed two-edged halberd and shot the Monkey King's golden cudgel!

Long shot:

The Monkey King and Erlang Shen were fighting together, with explosions, fireworks, and rocks flying everywhere. The two of them fought fiercely in the sky and on the ground.

Close-up:

Erlang Shen swept past with his halberd, and the Monkey King turned over and dodged in the air.

The person in charge of Via yanked hard, and the Monkey King in the camera rotated 360 degrees in the air, then put his head down and hit Erlang Shen with a stick.

For this fight scene, the eldest brother Cheng Long, who is a martial arts instructor, borrowed action scenes from Peking Opera and then integrated them with actions from Hong Kong martial arts movies to form a very exaggerated but beautiful action scene.

In the camera, the Monkey King transformed into a fish and escaped the pursuit of the divine dog. Erlang Shen, played by Keanu Reeves, cast a spell and turned into an osprey to catch the Monkey King; the Monkey King turned into a sparrow and flew into the sky, while Erlang Shen

Turning into eagles to catch sparrows... In this way, the two of them changed and changed. However, the so-called "transformation" was a task of post-production special effects. The two actors only needed to make transformation movements in the camera.

Long shot: The Monkey King turns into a temple but Erlang Shen sees through it and knocks him out of his true form with a halberd. The Monkey King wants to escape, but Erlang Shen releases the divine dog to chase and bite the Monkey King.

The Monkey King ran wildly, with the Divine Dog chasing after him.

When filming this scene, carefully selected thin dogs were used. This kind of hound is a specialty of China and has been bred for thousands of years. It has a thin body, a long head and calves and a thin waist. It is good at running and has a body shape similar to that of a cheetah.

Or similar to the Western Greyhound; compared with the Greyhound, it has slightly less explosive speed, but its endurance and flexibility and coordination are far superior to the Greyhound. Its desire to pick up and hunt is also higher than that of the Greyhound, making it an excellent hunting dog.

When filming this movie, Yi Feiyang planned to choose better domesticated police dogs, but most of those police dogs were German shepherds, or the wolf dogs were too different from the thin dogs in the original work. For this reason, Yi Feiyang specially

I asked Fat Jack to be seconded to the place where thin dogs are abundant, and this is how I got the "Howling Sky Dog" in front of me.

Yi Feiyang cultivated a relationship with this thin dog for more than a week, practicing how to chase humans and dogs whenever he had free time.

Now there is a tacit understanding when shooting, especially in the camera, the Monkey King and Erlang Shen are fighting fiercely, but when they are running, they are caught up by Erlang Shen's thin dog, and Zhao is bitten on the calf, and then pulled down again. This time

During the trial shooting of the lens, four or five rolls of film were spent.

Fortunately, in this official shooting, the camera captured the scene very well, and the actors and the fine dogs also worked perfectly together.

The moment Xin Quan pounced on Yi Feifang, "cut!" Assistant Director Cindy shouted to stop.

Shooting is paused.

Yi Feiyang, who plays the role of the Monkey King, was helped up from the ground. Thousands of staff members stuffed cotton on his leggings to prevent him from being bitten by dogs.

Then, reshooting begins.

The roaring dog threw down the Monkey King and bit the Monkey King's calf with its mouth. Erlang Shen stepped forward, threw out the rope, and tied up the Monkey King directly.

"OK! Let's take a rest!" Yi Feiyang, who was tied up, said.

The "Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals" who had just tied him up saw that the scene was finished and hurriedly stepped forward to untie him for the boss and director.

After Yi Feiyang was released, he moved his arms and said with a smile: "You are quite real, you are tied up so tightly!"

This sentence immediately frightened the two actors, "No, we just follow the needs of the plot..."

"Don't be afraid, I mean good job! This is real!" Yi Feiyang patted one of them on the shoulder and comforted. "Filming requires such a serious spirit. Only in this way can we make good films."
Chapter completed!
