Chapter 110 Brainstorming
"Old Zhao, long time no see. I'll wait for someone first. You can find a seat first." Yang Zhu greeted Zhao Hao with a smile.

Zhao Hao, who has gained a lot of fame recently and once again received a big order from Yang Zhu, nodded, and headed towards the conference room with a few technical backbones.

"Mr. Chen, you're here. Sit in the conference room and drink tea. I'll wait for someone first." Yang Zhu shook hands with Chen Daomin.

"Huh? What kind of person can make you, a proud and sideless little cunning, wait obediently?" Chen Daomin was very curious;

Although he and this young man in front of him only dealt with each other for an afternoon, Chen Daomin thought he could get a rough idea of ​​this guy;

Talent is of course talented, but this guy has a naughty temper like a loach, and there are as many tricks as a cow's hair, and even himself has been tricked;

The most important thing is, don't look at this kid who is called by teachers and teachers all day long, and the smile on his face is also simple and honest,
But Chen Daomin, who has long been a human being, has long seen that this guy is very arrogant in his bones, basically there are few people who think highly of him,

Even as a senior like himself, he only maintains superficial respect. As for how he sees himself deep down...

Chen Daomin didn't want to think about it, lest he feel bad.

But seeing this little fox standing obediently at the door waiting for someone today, and looking like a fan meeting an idol, he had to wonder, what kind of character could make this arrogant and borderless guy pose like this? formation.

So Chen Daomin, who was full of curiosity in his heart, insisted on standing at the door, chatting with Yang Zhu without saying a word, no matter how much he persuaded him, he would not be moved;
Suddenly, the elevator door opened, and a person came out,

Yang Zhu's eyes lit up, and he walked up quickly, supported the old man's arm respectfully, bowed his head slightly, like a little eunuch serving Lafayette: "Mr. Liu, you are here, please..."

………………

Liu Xun, born in 1939, originally from Imperial City, graduated from the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts. He is a Peking Opera actor, but by chance, he participated in many Hong Kong movies;
In this world, which movies Liu Xun has participated in, Yang Zhu has not watched them all.

But in another world, he is the most outstanding Chinese actor in Yang Zhu's mind, not one of them;

The benevolent old monk in "A Chinese Ghost Story" 2, the evil Pudu Cihang in "A Chinese Ghost Story" 3,

Tsui Hark's femininity in "Swordsman 1", Xiang Wentian in "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East"...

There are too many of his classic roles, which can be upright or evil, yin or masculinity,
The most rare thing is that although they all play supporting roles, each role has great tension and can fully interpret the charm in his bones; as a result, in many movies, Yang Zhu often only remembers the role of Liu Xun who did not appear many times, but instead I forgot what the protagonist looks like...

........................

Liu Xun looked at this young man in surprise. He hasn't returned to the capital for so long. Are the crew members here so enthusiastic?
Looking at the way Yang Zhu was carefully supporting him, it was a little funny, and said: "Young man, there is no need to do this, my body is still strong."

Yang Zhu smiled embarrassingly, and didn't say much, but followed along very seriously;

Seeing this, Liu Xun shook his head helplessly, thinking that this young man must have been ordered to die by his superiors.

After walking two steps, Liu Xun saw Chen Daomin with an incredulous expression at the door, and hurriedly said hello: "Hi, Teacher Chen, I'm Liu Xun, nice to meet, nice to meet!"

Although Liu Xun is more than ten years older than Chen Daomin, the status of the two in the cultural and film circles is quite different;

One is a supporting actor + a Peking opera actor in a remote place, and the other is a movie star Nailhu + a Chinese first-class actor + the chairman of the Film Association;
Chen Daomin looked at the thin old man in front of him who was vaguely familiar, shook hands with him politely, and exchanged greetings,
Then he smiled at Yang Zhu: "Director Yang, your most important guest has arrived, shouldn't it be time for us to enter?"

Hearing Chen Daomin's teasing tone, Yang Zhu rolled his eyes and said angrily, "I let you in a long time ago, but if you didn't listen, I couldn't hold it anymore after standing for a few minutes. Now I directly suspect you Whether you can play this role."

Chen Daomin didn't take it seriously, and walked forward with a smile.

Only then did Liu Xun realize that this young man turned out to be the director, and seeing him choke Chen Daomin, but the other party didn't care, he was even more surprised. This young man doesn't look simple, but why is he so respectful to himself? ?
……

Entering the conference hall, Yang Zhu still looked respectful. Regardless of Liu Xun's objection, he motioned for Pan Yueming to get up and put him in the first position on the right. This is the most honorable position besides Chen Daomin's left one. the position;

In fact, if Chen Daomin hadn't taken the first step to the left earlier, Yang Zhu would have planned to change his idol with Chen Daomin.

After Liu Xun settled down, he handed over a cup of tea himself, and then Yang Zhu sat down at the head of the long table;

All the people who knew Yang Zhu in the audience stared at Liu Xun with amazed eyes, and then whispered to each other, who is this man, who can make Director Yang respect him so much?You know, even Chen Daomin doesn't have this kind of treatment.

Liu Xun felt a little uncomfortable with the strange looks, and felt like there were a few more nails under his butt.

Yang Zhu knocked on the seat, and the conference room suddenly became quiet.

Yang Zhu glanced at the crowd: "I called you here today mainly for two reasons;"

"The first is to make everyone familiar with each other. In the next six months, everyone here will fight side by side. I hope everyone can get along happily!"

"Secondly, since everyone is now a de facto team, then I don't care about it,"

"I have some things here that I need everyone to brainstorm and put forward some ideas and opinions,"

"That's the legendary brainstorm,"

"It doesn't matter who it is, as long as you can come up with useful or practical ideas, those who add chicken legs add chicken legs, those who give bonuses give bonuses, if it is an actor's suggestion, I will accept it, and even add a few more brilliant shots for you. no problem!"

Everyone suddenly laughed lightly, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed;

Yang Zhu signaled the staff to send the information he was carrying, and then said:
"I remember I told you that I intend to make this movie a benchmark of Chinese cultural movies;"

"Therefore, the movie needs to create a lot of classic, dazzling, and cultural elements;"

"We have basically solved the rest, but the core elements of the battle of the three systems of [Tao], [Witch] and [Buddha] in the movie have not been fully perfected,"

"Taizu also said that there is great strength in numbers, and some of you here are young and have unconstrained thinking;"

"Some have rich life experiences and profound cultural heritage;"

"No, I, a good-for-nothing director, just come here to ask everyone for help."

There was something chuckling underneath.

"OK. Let's start with the easiest one now. Everyone, please look at the three hand-painted paintings in your hands;"

Everyone looked at the three sheets of A3 paper sent by the staff, and the patterns copied on them were a bit strange;
On the upper left side are some strange characters, and on the lower left side are those characters that have obviously been slightly deformed with a thick brush;

On the upper right side, there is a man in ancient costume, twisting his body in a strange posture, making an obvious attacking action, a trace like a glass crack appeared in front of him, and behind him, a The pattern of blood gold is shining brightly, it is the deformed and bolded text on the lower left;
On the lower right side, there is a monster with a human head and a leopard body, with wings on its back, and another bloody pattern on the back. Looking at that face, it is clearly the person in the picture above.

Turning over the other two pages, the general meanings are similar, but the words are different and the attack postures of the people in the paintings are also different.

Chen Daomin looked at the text on the paper, and said, "Is the second hand-painted inscription in gold? The third one is Dongba script?"

Yang Zhu nodded: "That's right, the hand-painted ones on everyone's hands, the third one is Dongba script, the second one is gold inscription script, and the first one is Shui script script!"

Paused: "These three hand-drawn pieces are the core combat elements I designed for the [Witch] system;"

"In the setting of the movie, [Witch] is an ancient remnant inherited from the age of ancient mythology;"

"Combined with the records of ancient documents, they are the controllers and spreaders of the culture of the clan, and they are also doctors who are proficient in medical treatment; they are not a group of reckless people, but a group of people with profound cultural literacy."

"So, I plan to make a set of combat core elements combining [Wen] and [Wu] for them;"

"There is a record in ancient books, [Cangjie created characters and ghosts and gods were frightened, and the sky rained like millet and thunder];"

"Therefore, the combat element of [Wen Wu] should be based on words;"

"With the help of jujitsu, they twist their bodies into the shape of characters, and use special skills to achieve the purpose of killing the enemy;"

"You can think of it as a sonic attack skill. Those postures of the body are just to allow the human body to build a sound wave emission platform of a certain frequency band, or to realize the resonance and amplification of some elements between heaven and earth, so that The energy in the body can exert the maximum killing effect."

"And these witches are proficient in medical knowledge,"

"So the combat element of [Wu Wu], the combat element I designed is mimic transformation;"

"I refer to the "Shan Hai Jing" and select some species that obviously do not belong to the natural world, and use them as the transformed image;"

"Such as [Gu Carving], such as [Kui Niu], such as [Shanhui] (hui, one against the dog, one army; the input method cannot be typed.)"

"OK, what we need to decide now is, among the three inscriptions in water script, inscriptions in gold, and inscription Dongba, which script do we need to use as the core element of the [Wenwu] battle?"

"Hmm... Jin inscriptions are relatively recognizable, but from a historical point of view, Shuishuwen and Dongbawen are more closely related to [Wu]."

"Of course, the most important thing is from the shape point of view. You think that typeface is more graphic and mysterious."

After Yang Zhu finished speaking, the people below began to compare carefully,
After a while, a technician from Longteng Magician raised his hand: "I think Shui Shuwen is more suitable. It is not only more simple in shape, but also more mysterious, and considering that actors need to make similar body movements, it is relatively difficult. Small."

With him starting, the rest of the people spoke one after another. Generally speaking, most of the people who agree with Shui Shuwen.

Yang Zhu nodded: "OK, that's it, it's God's will, [Shui Shu] is a book for witchcraft, and its writing is really more suitable for the ghost king."

Chen Daomin twitched his mouth, looking at the movements of the character who seemed to have bent his waist on the hand-painted manuscript, he directly doubted whether his [Ghost King] would be tossed into the ICU by then.

Yang Zhu looked at Chen Daomin's constipated eyes, and his stomach almost hurt from laughing. In fact, the adoption of Shui Shuwen was a matter he had already decided on. First, it was to enliven the atmosphere. The staff can better understand the characteristics of the film and quickly increase their sense of belonging to the film, which can greatly enhance their dedication to the performance.

……

"Okay, let's move on to the second topic; that is about the design of the combat elements of Daomen;"

"Currently, we have several ideas;"

"First, the deformation of the 64 lines of the eight trigrams is presented through the steps and the sword style;"

"Second, the writing action of the talisman script is similar to [Wen Wu], but it is realized through the swipe of the sword;"

"Third, 28 Constellations, step on the star point through steps, body skills and sword style, and use special effects to achieve the attack;"

The people below began to meditate;
"I think that in other movies, the gossip element is used too much, and if it is used again, the audience will feel a little visual fatigue; so I think the talisman element is better." A male supporting role spoke enthusiastically;

Yang Zhu nodded towards him, showing encouragement.

"I think that if you use talisman elements, the movements will be a bit too silly, there will be no sense of sharpness, and the visual effect will not be up to the mark. After all, Qingyunmen is the number one sect. There is no reason to lose to Ghost Kingzong in the fighting scene." Young supporting actor speaks.

"I also agree not to use talisman seals. I suggest using 28 constellations. No one has ever used this element. Although the movements will be a bit more complicated, it will be refreshing." It was Liu Yan who spoke.

"Is the 28 Constellations too complicated? And the audience is not familiar with this thing. Even if there are special effects, the audience will only feel that the actors are jumping around in place." Chen Daomin spoke.

Yang Zhu nodded, this was actually his biggest concern.

"Well...Director Yang, can you do this?" Liu Xun who was on the side asked hesitantly.

Yang Zhu immediately put on a serious and respectful expression.

Looking at Yang Zhu's appearance, Liu Xun felt a little unnatural, and cleared his throat:

"Director Yang, when I was filming a movie in Hong Kong, I saw that in some zombie movies, some Taoist priests dodged and jumped up and down in the air, making different movements with their hands. The zombie is subdued;"

"So I was thinking, can we learn a bit and add some flashing movements, so that it will have more three-dimensional effect, and with the addition of special effects, a star point will appear for each flashing, so that the audience will not I feel like we're fooling around."

Yang Zhu's eyes lit up: "Three-dimensional sense?" After chewing this sentence carefully, he seemed to have a hint of inspiration.

"I don't quite agree. Although flashing movements can increase the three-dimensional effect, the beauty of the picture and the sharpness of the moves will be greatly reduced. Generally, there is no problem with Xiao Xiami doing this, but if the masters of Qingyunmen still do it, it will not be possible at all. Showing the strength of the world's No. [-] faction will lead to entanglements, and the audience will think that the masters here are actually pecking at each other." Prince Lin raised his own doubts.

Yang Zhu nodded. Indeed, if there is too much flash, the coolness and mastery of the battle will be greatly reduced, which will greatly affect the audience's viewing experience.

"In this way, Director Yang, what I just said was decades ago, and the special effects are far from comparable to those in the past;" Liu Xun carefully considered his words.

"Look if this works, we synthesize the actors' stepping movements together, and through special effects processing, the surrounding environment is instantly static or extremely slow, while the actors' movements are accelerated; in this way, the audience will know that this series of actions is It is completed in an instant, and then the attack is launched, so that the sense of sharpness will be there, and the coolness of the picture will be guaranteed."

After Yang Zhu listened, the words "bullet time" appeared in an instant. Although the two are quite different, they are similar in essence.

Sure enough, experience is not comparable to simple knowledge in many cases.

Immediately said: "Mr. Liu's idea is very good. We only show this superimposed effect of urgency and urgency on a few masters of Qing Yun sect, so that it will appear that the masters of Qing Yun sect are calm and different;"

"As for the general Qingyun children, we only step on all the points and complete the moves in a very short period of time through motion collection. In this way, what we present to the audience is a pure sense of sharpness and cultural beauty."

After everyone heard it, they simulated it in their minds, and they felt that it was pretty good, so they all nodded.

……

"The third topic is about the combat element design of Buddhism;"

"For this, I already have a preliminary idea, everyone come to find out;"

"First of all, the characteristic of Buddhism is [quietness], so it is not suitable to have too intense body movements. It is enough to use the secret seal of Buddhism. Others are more made up with special effects."

"Except for the role played by Teacher Liu, the core combat element of the rest of the Buddhist characters is [Buddhist Kingdom]!"

"Generally, it is by pulling the enemy into the [Buddhist Kingdom] created by oneself, and by absorbing the thought power of believers to suppress and destroy the enemy spiritually."

"You can imagine the specific picture. In a shimmering void space, huge murals appear one after another, depicting the six realms, Buddha, sentient beings and Sanskrit..."

"And Faxiang is Teacher Liu's exclusive combat core element, and its general performance is..."

………………

From the core elements of the battle of each faction to the weapon settings, and then to the attitudes of the various factions, it took seven hours for this brainstorming to be completed.

The crowd only felt dizzy and exhausted, and Chen Daomin and Liu Xun, two older people, looked even more fatigued; but in contrast, they felt inexplicably more satisfied, the so-called "excitement after exhaustion" "Feeling" is this state.

Regardless of the objections of those involved, Yang Zhu respectfully helped Liu Xun into the car, and did not look away until the car was gone.

Chen Daomin, who was watching from the side, finally couldn't help his curiosity: "I said Director Yang, why do you respect Big Brother Liu so much?"

"If you want to say that you respect the old, you haven't seen you treat me like this?"

Yang Zhu pursed his lips: "Guess why a director respects an actor so much?"

Chen Daomin thought for a while, then shook his head: "Why?"

Yang Zhu rolled his eyes: "What else could be the reason, his acting skills are so good!"

Chen Daomin didn't believe it at all: "Can his acting skills be better than mine?"

Yang Zhu felt that his idol was being questioned, and was immediately unhappy, so he looked at Chen Daoming with the eyes of an alien creature: "Are you competing with Mr. Liu?"

After speaking, he shook his head, feeling as if he had heard a joke.

Chen Daomin didn't come up in one breath, and almost carried it back.

It took a long time to slow down, and I didn't want to suffer from this guy's mental attack again, so I changed the subject: "Hey, I almost forgot one thing."

"Who is the actor playing the head of the Qingyun faction? Why didn't I see him today?"

Yang Zhu was reminded of the sad past, and said with a blank face: "Come here, you have seen it too."

Chen Daomin frowned, sorted it out carefully in his mind, and asked doubtfully, "Who is it? Why don't I remember?"

Yang Zhu chuckled stiffly, then pointed at himself.

Chen Daomin didn't react immediately: "Oh, you."

"Ok!????"

"You mean...it's you!???????"

PS: The writing of these chapters is quite tiring, because there are many things to conceive, and it is already the third edition.

Teacher Liu Xun is really an actor I admire very much, I hope Chen Daoming's fans don't scold me.

In addition, the grades of this book are quite dismal. The 12 books are all ordered. I was severely mocked by my friends yesterday, so I angrily went out to eat 1 skewers of chicken butts at 5:3 in the middle of the night. Just barely fell asleep.

This story tells us that if it is past 12 o'clock, it is best to eat only 3 skewers of chicken butt...

Finally, I wish you all a happy holiday!

Thanks to the author who suffers from severe sleep deprivation!
