villain king

Chapter 79
The story happened in Yuzhou, an old handicraft factory.

Due to poor management, the factory manager, Lao Xie, who was in arrears of wages for eight months, was going to sell the land, but he dug up a valuable emerald during the demolition.The factory director decided to use this jadeite to hold an exhibition, and used the money earned from the exhibition to pay the wages owed to all workers.

As soon as the jade came out, it immediately attracted the coveting of many people. The international thief Mike and the local bandit Brother Dao all turned their attention to this priceless jade.

Around this piece of jade, the exhibition hall started a contest of open and secret struggle.

After stumbling, the crew finally ushered in the start.

The crew are all locals, so they naturally bypassed the tedious and boring opening ceremony.

On the one hand, the opening ceremony is for peace of mind, and on the other hand, it is to provide some materials for the media.

However, this small workshop has no traffic at all, and no media reporters are moved by the news, so they don't need it.

After the equipment was set up, Ning Hao sat on the director's chair in high spirits.

This day has come too long!
"Give me the power on!"

The red cloth on the camera was lifted by Yue Xiaojun, which can be regarded as satisfying everyone's sense of ceremony.

After a brief cheer, the crew began to shoot the first shot.

Brother Dao's team wanted to steal, but was stopped by the traffic police. Just when Huang Mao, played by Huang Bo, was about to kill, a van on the side of the road crashed into a BMW, instantly attracting the attention of the traffic police.

Wang Xun plays the fourth eye who supervises the demolition of the handicraft factory, and is spray-painting the words demolition on the wall of the factory.His car was parked on the side of the road, but was hit by a van.

The owner of the van was lead actor Guo Tao, who was smashed through the glass by a Coke can falling from the sky, and was walking out of the car with his colleagues when the van without the handbrake went downhill and crashed into a BMW parked on the side of the road.

The Coke can was dropped from the cable car. Xie Xiaomeng, the son of the old factory manager, flirted with a beautiful woman and accidentally dropped the Coke from the cable car.

Theft gang, car accident, coke, cable car.

An invisible line guides the camera, making the story a closed loop, and the audience's sight moves along with the series of coincidences, and follows the whole story closely, and the characters in the story follow the coincidences one by one.

This approach is known as the Guy Ritchie style.

Montage and Guy Ritchie, two odd-character elder brothers, figured out two film structures.

In fact, it’s not that obscure. To put it simply, montage is a normal cut-and-paste combination, while Guy Ritchie is an unimaginable cut-and-paste combination.

Ning Hao was deeply influenced by Guy Ritchie's tactics.

In the book of Crazy Stone, you can see the narrative style of "Two Smoking Barrels" and the story logic of "Stealing and Kidnapping".

The film is full of nonsensical dialogues and unimaginable coincidences. Cool shots and fast editing make the plot compact and full of absurdity.

But Ning Hao didn't intend to brand this film as a plagiarism.

If Guy Ritchie's film was coincidence, then this Crazy Stone is coincidence.

The dedicated hero got the real jade, the little villains such as Huang Mao and Xie Xiaomeng suffered a lot, and the big villains such as Brother Dao and the real estate owner were sanctioned.

The causal relationship between these events makes the coincidence an interesting surprise.

Although the method is generally the same, in the eyes of Chinese people, this kind of fatalistic coincidence method is undoubtedly much better.

This difference in cultural core is also one of the reasons why Crazy Stone is better than two big smoking guns in China.

It can be said that before he decided on the script, he had already thought about how to localize Guy Ritchie's techniques, rather than blindly imitating them.

Guo Tao was the last to join the team, half a day before the start.

Ning Hao and Yue Xiaojun spent a lot of money to treat him to a meal, which was even richer than Ji Yun's meal.

But they were wrong after all, Guo Tao kept cursing until the next day before turning on the machine.

Guo Tao is a professional actor. Although he still felt resentful before the filming started, he entered the role as soon as the filming started.

The identities of him and Ning Hao were also reversed immediately, allowing Ning Hao behind the monitor to manipulate at will.

"Ca! This part is not acceptable!"

Ning Hao is like a machine that stops the story twelve times in the opening scene alone.

Comedy movies are not easy to make.

The image and movement of each actor needs to be fine-tuned according to the setting. The show really has no money to hire extra makeup artists.

The actors can only fine-tune themselves in order to meet Ning Hao's standards.

Moreover, the lines of comedy are not fixed, and every sentence seems almost meaningless when uttered, and it is often improved continuously during filming.

Maybe an actor's flash of inspiration can become the final piece of the film.

Just like Shen Teng, his ability to memorize lines is indeed a bit poor, but he has a quick mind, maybe that sentence will become a stroke of genius, which is much more exciting than what is written in the script.

Most of the entire crew are old actors, if it is really quick-witted, Boge is the only one.

He arched his back, raised his head, his upper and lower jaws were slightly unbuttoned, and a pair of thief eyes glanced upwards, revealing the ruffian aura of just seeing each other.

As a result, Liu Hua and Yue Xiaojun beside him were suppressed by him.

Fortunately, Ning Hao is a tolerant director, if it were someone else, he would definitely have to act with restraint.

"Brand, Baleno!"

Huang Bo curled his mouth wide and grabbed the hem of his clothes to show off.

"Hahahaha!"

The whole crew suddenly burst into laughter.

Bo Ge's performance is really down-to-earth, and he can speak even ordinary lines.

Even Ning Hao, who had a serious face, lost his temper with laughter.

But he couldn't blame Huang Bo either, after all, he acted well in this part.

"Very good! Let's keep one."

Dialect is a very plus point in comedy, it can quickly and easily set the tone of the characters and add a lot of laughs.

For example, in Wulin Biography, Tong Xiangyu speaks Guanzhong dialect, Guo Furong speaks Hokkien, Xing Butou speaks Shandong dialect, and Bai Zhantang speaks Northeast dialect, all of which have brought the relationship between the characters closer to a certain extent.

It's the same in Crazy Stone, Ji Yun plays a Xiangjiang native.

He speaks half-baked Mandarin, which can be regarded as adding some flavor to the regional colors in the play.

Ji Yun was wearing a black trench coat and wide-brimmed sunglasses. Those who didn't know it thought he was filming The Matrix.

With a paralyzed face, the word "master" was almost written on his face.

Ning Hao told him that your direction in this drama is to pretend endlessly.

He glanced up and down at Ji Yun's appearance, and patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, just pretend to be round, and I'll work hard if you can't pretend."

"Gang Pu, do you know it?"

"Yes, there's nothing wrong with it."

Ji Yun nodded, and murmured a few words "I am Zha Zhahui" to warm up.

Gangpu is really simple, there is no distinction between flat tongue roll, front and back nasal, NL, and pitch alignment, and then add the effort to read correctly, and Gangpu becomes it.

"Then say something and try?" Ning Hao was still a little worried.

"The version of the ship's heart that has never been seen in Sili, just click it, and the equipment will not cost a penny in case of a year."

"Okay, okay!" Ning Hao quickly interrupted, "What are you talking about?"
