From Xiangjiang Martial Arts in the 70s

Chapter 56 Culture Clash
"Don't move, it's hard to wipe it off."

Wu Chang used his hand to rub some blood plasma and smear it on the face of the man in the role. It was strange to observe it closely for the first time.

Wu Changyun touched the big belly of the extra actor, and the touch was harder than normal skin.

"What kind of leather is used on the outside of this costume?"

"It was modified on the basis of pigskin."

Rai replied that blood packs would be filled in if necessary, and artificial blood would be sprayed out when a sharp weapon scratched the skin.

"It's such a good thing, we can even have a masquerade party with this."

"The idea is good, but it will attract the local police." Ley said in a calm tone. They had indeed done this before.

At the scene, countless jagged steel wires wrapped the actor, and his body was covered with scars. Several steel wires strangled into the costume he was wearing, and artificial blood leaked from the cut.

"how do you feel?"

"It's a little heavy." The suit is supported by a single leg. The suit weighs more than 20 kilograms, and it is very uncomfortable for the whole person to be hung by the steel wire.

Compared with martial arts in Hong Kong, this kind of work is already considered light and easy.

"Everyone is in position, ready to start."

When there is no camera, Wu Changyun sits behind the camera. Fortunately, because of the previous cooperation with Du Qifeng, the communication between the two is still tacit.

The filming went smoothly for a week, and finally it was Ann-Margret's turn to appear. Her role is very important, she is the doctor's wife.

Wu Changyun walked to the door of Ann Margaret's room. Recently, her agent sent herself a lot of legal documents, which were piled up on the table in Wu Changyun's room.

Unfortunately, one day when Wu Changyun drank too much, he threw it all into the toilet, so he specially invited a repairman to come over for it.

"Come on in, you haven't got those contracts and agreements yet."

Ann-Margaret wore a white shirt and track shorts, her bare thighs looking plump and bouncy.

"Thank you."

Wu Changyun leaned on the table and received the local specialty juice from Ann Margaret.

"It doesn't look like you're going to deal with what's going on between us."

Ann-Margret took a sip of the juice. She originally thought she had expectations for this oriental man, but after arriving here, she once suspected that she was filming a special documentary.

"Not everyone can be Bruce Lee," Ann-Margaret said.

"Does this have something to do with our current shooting?"

"Yes, I think you should go back and take a closer look at the agreement I gave you to ensure the interests of both of us, otherwise I won't step into that damn dangerous building."

She said resolutely that the crew frequently entered and exited the abandoned hospital, but this did not guarantee that it was safe.

Wu Changyun pays actors according to American standards. For Ann Margaret, he even paid more than the standard.

"Unfortunately, Miss Ann Margaret, you don't have a role in the hospital." Wu Changyun couldn't help reminding.

Ann Margaret was stunned for a moment, with a surprised expression written on her face, and immediately said in a strongly questioning tone: "No, this is a matter of trust."

Ann-Margaret's request is also very simple. She hopes that Wu Changyun will sign an agreement with her to ensure that she will not be injured and left trauma during the filming process. If this happens unfortunately, Wu Changyun needs to pay financial compensation Losses etc.

For an American actor in his golden age, the amount of compensation is astronomical.

This is actually a matter of concept. No one in Hong Kong dares to make such a request. Even those popular female stars. No one in Hong Kong would go to great lengths for the safety of actors.

"You can't? Then I'll change."

This is already the most polite statement in Wu Changyun's mind.

"what?"

"What did you say?"

"This matter is not negotiable, I can replace you." Wu Changyun's expression changed, he turned around and left.

"We have a contract, and you are in breach of the contract." Ann Margaret chased to the door, holding a roll of paper documents in her hand.

Wu Changyun looked at each other helplessly, stood in the corridor and said softly to her: "Don't think that I will delay the construction period because of you. If you don't want to play this role, I will contact Canadian college students to shoot tomorrow. After this film is finished, you You will not receive a penny of compensation. When the filming is over, take your lawyer to collect evidence in an abandoned hospital in Canada, and remember to send the subpoena to Hong Kong when the time comes."

"You will regret it." Ann-Margaret sprinkled the document in the air in an atmosphere.

Wu Changyun is not worried that he will regret it. The most classic part of a play is often remembered by the audience.

The most classic of "Chain Saw" is the mechanism design, the surprise brought to everyone when the jigsaw appears, and all kinds of cruel and bloody scenes that cannot be seen directly. Who will remember what the doctor's wife looks like?
The main reason for this trip to Canada is that his films are more popular in overseas markets.

Instead of competing head-to-head with Xu Guanwen's special comedy films to compete for the box office in mainland Hong Kong, Wu Changyun only needs to spend a year to raise enough funds. Right now, he is still affiliated with Yuan Aijia's Zhengke Films.

He discussed this issue with Yuan Aijia before, and the other party readily accepted it. She is still in the investigation stage of her grandfather, and Wu Changyun's new work is listed under the company's name. It is not harmful to her.

After returning to the hotel room, Wu Changyun called the local Canadian executive director and asked him to temporarily help him contact actresses of a more suitable age, even if they are not professional, try to find as many as possible.

"Now? Are you in a hurry?" When the executive director arrived, it was already past 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.

"Well, it's urgent."

Wu Changyun didn't want to see Ann Margaret and her agent making fun of him the next day.

I have to say that this Canadian executive director is really awesome. At 2 o'clock in the morning, he rushed into the hotel with a dozen slim girls. The security actors on the first floor were so frightened that they called the security directly.

Wu Changyun had no choice but to rush to the lobby on the first floor and explain to the hotel manager: "Sorry, this is required by the movie."

The manager spoke very fast, each time he said a lot, and then the translator slowly conveyed it to Wu Changyun, and the security personnel stopped the girls in the lobby.

The manager has been emphasizing safety issues. Fortunately, Wu Changyun brought his own security team when he came to Canada this time.

There was a man named Yin Zhaozhao in the security team, who used to be Liu Yukuan's big disciple in martial arts. When he heard the translator's words, he immediately picked up the hotel security guard.

Yin Zhaozhao stood in front of the manager with a person in his hand and asked the translator to convey to him: "We can handle it. You don't need to meddle in the security issue."

The manager had never seen such a barbaric scene, and even said "OK" several times, for fear that Yin Zhaozhao would pick him up soon, and sometimes misunderstandings were established like this.

Fortunately, in the early morning, Wu Changyun raised his head and glanced at the floor where Ann-Margaret was located, but he didn't see the attracted people. At present, this hotel is occupied by Wu Changyun's crew.
