"Everyone, come and see God."
Seeing this scene, the extras, assistant directors, makeup artists, and supporting actors rushed to tell each other.
The wind was quite strong, but fortunately Zhao Chuanxin chose to float with the wind.
The movie machine’s mouth opens and closes.
It wasn’t until Zhao Chuanxin landed and Peter Grebbin tightened the reins that he understood why Zhao Chuanxin’s mouth was opening and closing.
Because Zhao Chuanxin was cursing: "Who made you look up when you were so paralyzed? And what's with that expression of yours?"
The expression of Peter Grebin is not out of character. The joy of the cage is shock.
It is difficult to imagine the inner activities of a man who has just escaped from prison, riding a horse and running wildly, but looking up at the sky with a look of amazement on his face.
Peter Grebin changed his previous laziness: "I, I, I will shoot it again."
He actually volunteered?
On the contrary, Zhao Chuanxin waved his hand: "Forget it, let's do it."
It doesn't matter if you increase the budget, this is an independent film, there is no upper limit on funding, no matter how poor Zhao is These three melons and two dates.
The key is time is of the essence.
On this day, Zhao Chuanxin actually shot more than fifty scenes in the ice and snow.
The rest of the people were extremely cooperative, even though they didn’t know the script or even what they were playing.
They were respectful and obedient like sheep.
At night, Zhao Chuanxin returned to the Peacekeeping Bureau Yamen and found a group of people following him.
If there is anyone in this world who is not afraid of being left behind, it is Zhao Chuanxin.
After he returned to the tower, he went to the third floor.
The group of people went to the second floor, knelt on the floor, clasped their hands and prayed.
Zhao Chuanxin saw this scene from the perspective provided by the True Vision Crystal, got up and went down to wait in the corridor at the door.
Peter Grebin walked out of the office lobby on the second floor.
He saw Zhao Chuanxin trembling.
Zhao Chuanxin asked him: "What are you doing?"
Peter Grebin said honestly: "Evening prayers."
"Evening If you don’t go to church to pray, why should you come to the Peacekeeping Bureau to pray?”
“It’s closer to God.”
Zhao Chuanxin: “…”
But by the next day, these believers were less enthusiastic.
Perhaps after one night they figured out one thing: God would most likely not kill people blatantly.
But Zhao Chuanxin will.
So, Zhao Chuanxin ≠ God.
On the second day, in addition to the actors and staff, there were also many curious viewers.
But Zhao Chuanxin’s shooting plan was formulated by Xingyue, with efficiency as the top priority.
And Zhao Chuanxin uses a non-linear way to narrate events.
This resulted in the actors, staff, or audience having no idea what Zhao Chuanxin wanted to film.
At this time, film production placed more emphasis on stage drama.Characteristics that emphasize the image of still images.
Zhao Chuanxin completely subverted tradition.
You can question Zhao Chuanxin's directorial ability, but you cannot question his composition and aesthetics.
Just like the Fukuro Tavern, there is an unremarkable building in the wilderness outside the camera, but with a frame, Shirasaka Nomi, who does not know photography, saw it and could only admire it: "Beautiful."
Today’s filming was a fight scene between exiles.
Peter Grabbin's lower body is unstable, his fists are weak and weak, his movements are slow during the fight, and the co-ordination of the supporting actors in the opponent's scenes is sluggish. < /p>
Bang.
The sandbag was shaken violently by his punch. The viewers were shocked and those who heard it were frightened.
Peter Grebin scratched his head: "Sir, I can't fight with such strength."
Zhao Chuanxin came to the actor: "He can't fight with strength, then it's all It depends on you. You are more important than him."
After hearing this, the actor was secretly happy: "Sir, I will do whatever you say."
"Okay, you have a brighter future. Add chicken legs later."
Zhao Chuanxin pretended to fight, and the supporting actor pretended to fall.
Zhao Chuanxin had a strong sense of proportion and punched him, and his fist stopped just in front of the dragon's cheek.
The hero felt the wind of the fist and reacted slowly: "Ouch..."
He fell backwards.
Zhao Chuanxin stopped his momentum: "Is this the Fist of the North Star? It takes three seconds to hit the head after hitting the ink mark, right?"
Can't you teach it in a while? Let's simply let Peter Grebin and the supporting actor do it again to find out the feeling.
The protagonist Peter Grebin performs a hip uppercut with standard movements.
Bang.
How can he have Zhao Chuanxin's sense of proportion?
One punch really hits the target.
The supporting actor really has no reaction time this time.
"Ah..."
The shouting was very real, and just hearing the sound told me that it hurt.
"Click." Zhao Chuanxin was surprised: "It passed, it seems you are all experienced people."
This movie has a lot of action scenes: boxing, gunfights, pick-pocketing Trains, horseback riding, etc...
Why is it so complicated?
Because he plans to show this film in Sakhalin, Japan, and all over the country.
For Chinese people, movies at this time were completely Western scenes. What they saw was the waltz of wives and children, the kiss of a gentleman and a chaste maiden, the ocean horse in a swimsuit on the beach, etc... and not anything else.
Except for the most rugged and primitive "beauty", I can't understand anything else.
Zhao Chuanxin refused to make short love action movies, so he had to use more exciting content to catch people's attention.
Zhao Chuanxin’s female secretary and makeup artist Nomi Shirasaka also has a role.
She was drawing water from a creek on the coast, wearing a kimono and her hairA long striped hair tie is tied behind the head, with a little buck teeth like the Showa beauty Sawaguchi Yasuko.
She was dancing in the rare morning sun in Sakhalin, with a fair face and red lips. Her generous kimono could not hide her beautiful figure.
Nakamura Ken scratched his head: "Sir, what am I playing?"
"Just say it with a ferocious face - I will give him Aconitum."
p>
When Peter Grabbin performed the painful scene of poisoning, Nakamura realized that Zhao wanted him to play a vicious-hearted child.
"Sir, this is not fair." Ken Nakamura came to Zhao Chuanxin angrily, feeling deeply deceived: "I acted so similar, I was acting in my true self, but you didn't add chicken legs to me."
p>
So this is what you were talking about.
Zhao Chuanxin was relieved.
"..." Zhao Chuanxin patted him on the shoulder: "Good boy, your role is the best. It doesn't matter if you add a chicken leg now. I just want you to avoid being beaten to death when the movie is released."
Ken Nakamura: "..."
There are two plays that are the most difficult.
It's all gunfights.
A play is shot by two sets of cameras at the same time.
One low angle shot and one side shot.
Peter Grebin fell to the ground, took a gun and shot at a Russian soldier who was charging with a bayonet.
The bullets were blank cartridges. Zhao Chuanxin used fresh chicken blood to fill the cartridges with blood and used micro bombs to explode the plasma.
"You jump up, wait for Peter Grabbin to shoot, you pull the string to detonate and jump back at the same time, making it look like you were shot away."
"My lord, I see People who are shot will not be blown away, but their bodies will be filled with big holes. "Idiot, I was killed in a sea of corpses, can you understand this?" It’s called violent aesthetics, and it’s meant to exaggerate the effect.”
I spent five packs of plasma and the chicken blood was coagulated, but there was no effect.
Zhao Chuanxin said with a sullen face: "Don't think I didn't see it! Did you mean to ask me to kill more chickens and eat more chicken for lunch?"
"Absolutely not. ." Everyone said in unison.
Zhao Chuanxin sneered: "I will help you perform this time. You should detonate the blood bag first, and I will help you complete the rest of the moves."
He originally wanted to use a rope behind him Pull assist, but it will not create special effects that remove the rope.
When Peter Grebbin fired a blank.
Bang.
The second-hand player was familiar with detonating plasma, and Zhao Chuanxin used his secondary limbs to suddenly drag his collar from behind.
The actor first flew upside down for one meter, and then landed on the ground with his upper body first, falling hard.
Fortunately, there is thick snow on the ground.
The actor stood up and was confused: "What happened?"
The difficulty of another play is that it requires a group of people to play Russian and Japanese soldiers.
What should I do if I really can’t find enough manpower to support a big event?
Zhao ChuanxinGo to North Island and South Island Pass to move people.
True Russian soldiers, real Japanese soldiers.
"Master Zhao, if we leave our posts without authorization, we will be punished."
"It doesn't matter, I will take you Shangguan away together."
" ..."
"But what if the Japanese/Russians attack?"
"Those who stop Zhao from filming will die!"
"That's no problem."
If you have the conditions, you can take advantage of them, but if you don't, Zhao Chuanxin will forcefully create the shooting conditions.
It took half a month to complete the shooting.
Zhao Chuanxin lay on a recliner and observed through his glasses. Xingyue controlled the black puppet craftsmen and puppet slaves to edit, and it took two days to complete the film.
The name of the film is - "Sakhalin Journey".
There are two ways of recording, one is simultaneous recording and the other is post-recording.
Zhao Chuanxin asked the actors to make up for the recording later and add special effects sounds.
Zhao Chuanxin asked Xingyue to copy and produce subtitles.
He then went to renovate the new, larger, yet unoperated tavern next to Fuxiang Tavern.
This is the temporary screening room of the Peacekeeping Bureau, and it must be ready before Maozi Christmas on January 7.
Not only the Peacekeeping Bureau, but also the north and the south knew that Zhao Chuanxin was filming a movie.
Everyone looks for clues about the movie from past issues of newspapers and periodicals.
After all, in the desolate Sakhalin, the movie is too far away.
All kinds of rumors about the movie spread like wildfire.
January 7th has become the most anticipated day in the art desert of Sakhalin.
At the same time, promotional posters were hung up in movie theaters owned by Zhao Chuanxin such as Lugang Town, Lubinfu, Hankou, Hong Kong Island, Ao Island, Shanghai Tang, Tianjin Wei, etc.
Zhao Chuanxin crossed the Tartar Strait and headed south, first to Shanghai, then to Hong Kong Island and Macao Island, traveling 4,500 kilometers. It took 5 hours at sea and a day to go everywhere.
He did not linger and immediately teleported to Hankou.
Somehow, some time ago, someone paid to place advertisements for him to promote his heroic deeds, which were published in various newspapers.
Forcing his power of faith to surge.
Zhao Chuanxin couldn’t figure out whether the assist was a friend or an enemy.
He has many fans, including those who are extremely rich and have no time to spare.
The two named disciples are.
He has more enemies, but the Japanese bear the brunt of killing enemies with this obscene and insidious style, followed by the United States.
In any case, Zhao Chuanxin was praised very much. It would be extremely difficult to kill him. Zaifeng’s tricks alone were not enough.
Exactly for teleportation.
Hankou, flying in the sky, Yanbian, Lugang Town, Lubin Mansion, Zhao Chuanxin made a big circle.
He sent copied films, new projectors, speakers, and promotional posters to movie theaters everywhere.
At the same time, he negotiated with various places about the release time: 1July 7th.
The rest is spontaneous promotion by movie theaters in various places, most of which spend money on advertising in newspapers.
"Report": The screening of Shanghai-Shanghai Internet Cinema is fair - the cinema's new film "Travel in Sakhalin" is directed by Zhao Chuanxin, who is well-known at home and abroad for a long time. The film lasts for 53 minutes. In the film, there are beautiful and graceful women, and some extremely vicious Rakshasa soldiers. They are in danger of boarding the train, are frightened by the gunfire, are capable of fighting, or rush out on angry horses... This is the first film in the world. A color film, a sound film, hundreds of extremely exquisite shots...
In general, this promotion has new ideas, but not much.
Why?
First of all, it’s the color. Previous short films also had color versions, but of course they were artificially colored and very fake. What’s outrageous is that the characters’ images have rough edges, just like the 50-cent special effects seen by later generations.
The second is the talkies. Nowadays, many movies have artificial soundtracks, narration, or musical instruments, and they can be called talkies.
Then there is content.
Newspaper advertisements will make people mistakenly think that they are a collection of multiple short films, so there are many content items.
And it is emphasized that there are beautiful and graceful women...
But there are two points that are very attractive.
The first is that the movie is 53 minutes long, and the second is that the director of this movie is actually Zhao Chuanxin.
Zhao Chuanxin is now a household name.
Has Tuzi Zhao made a movie instead?
Then you have to join in the fun.
The ticket price for a movie at Internet cinemas across the country is one dime.
Of course, this is a third-class seat ticket price, because the cinema is divided into first, second and third-class seats.
The price of silver rises and falls sharply, so the ratio of copper yuan, copper coins, small oceans, oceans, and silver is not fixed and changes frequently.
But Lubin Mansion’s money is very stable.
This is an important part of Lubinfu Bank’s outward expansion.
If you want to go to the theater, then it’s most convenient to go to Lubinfu Bank to exchange banknotes and buy tickets.
The general ticket price for a screening room in Sakhalin is 10 kopecks.
At this time, nickelodeon theaters had emerged in the United States.
Because the ticket price was 5 cents in nickels, it was called a nickelodeon theater.
Back in 1905, there were only a few nickelodeon theaters.
By 1906, there were more than 100 nickelodeon theaters in Chicago alone. In 1907, there were as many as 2,000 nickelodeon theaters in the United States.
At this time, there were almost seven or eight thousand families.
While there are surprisingly few theaters in China, Zhao Chuanxin’s Internet cinema is almost the most standard and advanced professional cinema at this time.
The foreign devil Remas has rented and purchased new movies from the French EMI record company in the past two years, rented a small room in the Shanghai Tanghua Club Tea House as a screening room, and hired people to trumpet at the door with foreign drums and horns. Attract customers.
The Huahui Teahouse is famous in Shanghai and is located in the downtown area.Four roads.
The teahouse is divided into two floors. The upstairs is for customers to drink tea and smoke; the downstairs is a playground with a billiard room, a Western view, a fun mirror, and a chess and card room.
After all, the Huahui Tea House has a large flow of customers, which makes Remus a lot of money.
But at this time, the film is made of nitrocellulose and is easily damaged.
After being played for a long time, the dozens of reels of Remas’ short films gradually became fragmented and incomplete. The images were scattered and often cut off during the screening.
But the audience still came in endless streams.
Remas picked up "The Report" and couldn't help but sneer when he saw the Internet cinema advertisement.
That movie theater took a long time to build, and even hired people, but it has been idle and has not opened, and it has become a joke in Shanghai.
Now it is suddenly announced that the movie will be broadcast.
We are friends in the same industry. When Remas saw the grandeur of the Internet Cinema, even though he did not enter, his eyes became red with envy.
In comparison, he looks like a street performer walking around.
"Damn it, do you think you can make money by using Zhao Chuanxin as a gimmick? Zhao Chuanxin knows nothing about movies? He is also a director. Can any cat or dog be a director?"
In fact, there are many foreigners who love movies, not only Remus, but also Galen Baek, Kobchev, etc...
At this time, the few screening halls in the country were basically occupied by foreigners. Monopoly, whether it is film distribution or theater construction.
It is inevitable that these foreigners will feel unhappy because of Zhao Chuanxin’s troublemaking attitude.
On January 7, Remas took money to exchange money at the Lubinfu Bank, which was originally empty but had a small amount of banknotes for exchange.
He took the beautifully printed dime banknote, touched the texture of the banknote, and wondered: What kind of paper does Lubinfu Bank use? How can you still feel the lines?
When he arrived at the Internet Cinema, he took another look at the poster.
On the poster is a handsome Russian wearing a fur hat, aiming a gun.
There are many words on it, but the biggest word is undoubtedly - Director: Zhao Chuanxin.
These big characters have translations in Chinese, English, Russian, French, German and other languages.
For fear that others will not see it.
As for the main introduction of Peter Grebin, it cannot be any smaller, and no one will take a second look at it.
This is not important. What is important is that there are long queues outside the Internet cinema.
Hey guys, there are so many people waiting to watch the movie without beating gongs and drums?
How much money do you need to earn?
A ball of fire ignited in Remas's jealous chest: I want to build a cinema too!
He waited and waited, and the queue got longer.
Fortunately, he came early.
He saw that the people were in high spirits, talking a lot, and their faces were full of merit, and he couldn't help but scratch his heart.
Finally it was his turn.
Remas arranged his suit and hat, walked forward with a civilized staff, and bought the tickets first.
The movie ticket has a pattern of a crescent wrapped around a six-pointed star printed on it, and the text states: Produced by Xingyue Film Company.
“Hmph, it’s all so fancy, let me see what kind of shit movie you made.”
Once inside, enter the waiting room where drinks, popcorn, Stalls selling dried sweet potatoes, preserved fruits and other dried fruits, as well as newspapers and periodicals.
There are no shelled snacks like melon seeds and peanuts here.
When we arrived at the waiting room, we had to wait for the audience to come out. During this period, many people went to buy snacks and drinks.
Butter sweet popcorn is more expensive than original popcorn, hot tea is more expensive than herbal tea, illustrated newspapers are more expensive than newspapers, glazed dried sweet potatoes are more expensive than original dried sweet potatoes...
Remas bought it Butter-sweet popcorn, looking around, he was proud to find that the small popcorn had actually increased his worth invisibly - others were buying tasteless ones.
After waiting for another hour, the audience came out one after another, with excitement on their faces.
Remas couldn’t understand what they were discussing.
Finally it was his turn to enter.
Some ticket inspectors will cut the movie ticket into a section before releasing it.
The ticket inspector asked him: "Sir, can you understand Chinese?"
"Yes."
"Sir, there is no smoking in the third-class area. , please don’t throw garbage anywhere, please take the garbage out of the viewing room, otherwise you will be punished accordingly.”
When Remas heard that he was not allowed to smoke, it was okay: “Why should I do it? What about smoking?"
The ticket inspector pointed to the uniformed patrolman: "Did you see the words on his clothes?"
Remas looked at it.
There are three words on the uniform: Jury.
The ticket inspector had a polite but unflinching smile on his face: "Have you ever heard of the Hong Kong Xuantian Sect's adjudication panel? If you insist on having your own way, the adjudication panel is proficient in two skills - reasoning and Fists, feet, and firearms."
Remas cursed, but did not dare to say anything more.
All foreigners in coastal and port areas have heard of the Judgment Panel.
That is one of the sharpest minions of the Far East Butcher Zhao Chuanxin.
I really never get used to foreigners!
At this time, many theaters that could play movies were in poor sanitation and poor condition.
It may just be a broken house with a few rafters, a curtain hanging on the door, a few rotten wooden chairs, fumigation, and pungent cigarette smoke.
The quality of the audience is extremely low, the crowd is noisy, and there are endless shouts, curses, and flirtations.
Some people are more particular and have to rush out the door soon after entering.
The exaggerated later recalled: "It was like traveling to hell!"
When Remus entered the screening room, he was shocked to find that the rows of chairs inside were neat, clean, and brand-new.
It's like a staircase, one level higher than the other, so that people in the back can see clearly, like the Colosseum.
This is so professional.
The ground is flat and clean, no wonder smoking is allowed.
HeI also heard the service staff in the second-class and first-class seats say: "This area is equipped with ashtrays. Please cooperate in flicking the ashtrays into the ashtrays. You are not allowed to smoke opium, otherwise you will be sent to the patrol room. If you resist arrest, you will be lucky. It’s true that the jury’s life is at stake.”
Remas: “…”
I’m so awesome, do you feel like threatening the audience?
Suddenly, all the lights in the screening room went out and fell into huge darkness.
The curtain appears.
Remas was shocked: "Wang Defa...how did you do this?"
The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Please trouble you. Move your little hands to exit reading mode. Thank you
