Chapter 243 Being Cyberbullied
The crew filmed in Taierzhuang Ancient City for a total of 15 days after the start of filming, and completed all the shots required for this location.
If we were to say which scene left the deepest impression on Gu Wei during this half month, it would be the scene where "Chen Lian" visits the archive at night, is attacked by "Zheng Zhangban", and the Embroidered Spring Knife fights against the Meteor Hammer, and the archive is set on fire!
This scene was the foreplay of "Chen Lian" meeting "Ding Baiying" in the teahouse. Because of the threat from "Ding Baiying", he had to go into the case library at night, and ended up meeting the hidden "Zheng Zhangban", so a big battle inevitably broke out.
Gu Wei believes that this fight scene can be regarded as the most exciting fight scene in the entire movie, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is the best martial arts scene in the entire film.
This section is also a night scene. "Chen Lian" played by Gu Wei is dressed in night clothes and cautiously comes out of the document library. "Zheng Zhangban" walks out of the darkness behind the stone lamp in the small courtyard, takes a stance, and the meteor hammer flashes with sparks in his hand back and forth, like flowing water!
"I wanted to be quiet, but once you left the inner courtyard, you were very alert."
Gu Wei turned his head and looked around.
"Don't look, I'm alone."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Wei turned around and tried to escape, but "Zheng Zhanban" entered combat mode, slid sideways with one hand on the ground, and stones flew everywhere, swiftly cutting off Gu Wei's retreat! This series of moves was so beautiful that it was unmatched.
The weapon used by "Zheng Zhangban" was a meteor hammer. Gu Wei originally did not want to reveal his identity, but was forced to draw out his iconic Embroidered Spring Knife during the fight, so he had to silence "Zheng Zhangban".
Although Gu Wei, as the protagonist, definitely won the final victory, he was at a disadvantage for most of the fight.
It was like this in the play and it was also the same during the actual filming.
After a period of systematic training, Gu Wei has mastered the sword techniques taught by Coach Sang, and has gradually become proficient in filming fighting scenes in the crew.
But the actor Liu Fengchao who plays "Zheng Zhangban" opposite him is no ordinary person.
Although he is only a minor villain who appears for a few minutes in the drama "Assassin Spring Blade 2", he is actually a national master-level athlete who has practiced martial arts since childhood and won the sixth place in the gun and sword event at the 10th National Games.
He is a master of all kinds of weapons. This time, he was invited by Director Sang to play the role of "Zheng Zhangban". He practiced using the unpopular weapon such as meteor hammer for nearly a year in advance. Now he can hit whatever he points with the hammer in his hand.
Although Gu Wei was confident that he was not worse than him in terms of physical fitness, he was far behind him in the use of weapons.
This fight scene was filmed all night long, from when the sun went down and it was completely dark until dawn the next day.
The two leading actors and even the crew members were a little exhausted, but fortunately the final result was good, and all kinds of exciting fighting shots were fully filmed.
Under the direction of Director Sang, the action designs of each fighting scene are sharp, thrilling and full of alternative beauty.
Anyway, at the end, Director Lu Yang looked very satisfied. Although he had been up all night, he was still very excited when he saw the various shots of the fierce clash between "Chen Lian" and "Zheng Zhangban" on the monitor.
"Teacher Liu, thank you for your hard work!"
At the end of the filming, "Zheng Zhangban" was killed by "Chen Lian", and Liu Fengchao naturally finished filming and left the stage.
"Teacher Gu Wei, you're too polite. Everyone has been working very hard. I'm just filming normally."
Liu Fengchao felt a little flattered by Gu Wei's greeting.
Although he has some accomplishments in action and martial arts, he has been playing villains or minor supporting roles since entering the entertainment industry, and can only be described as an 18th-tier actor.
There is absolutely no intersection with the world of top stars like Gu Wei.
"Your fighting was truly spectacular in this scene. If I hadn't had the aura of a leading actor, I, 'Chen Lian,' would have been beaten to death by your 'Zheng Zhangban'."
Gu Wei didn’t have too many thoughts, he just simply felt that people with ability deserved respect.
"Haha~ Mr. Gu Wei, you're too kind. Your swordsmanship is also very good. Your action scenes are definitely top-notch among the younger generation of actors."
As he said that, Liu Feng gave a thumbs up.
After chatting for a while, Gu Wei learned that Liu Fengchao had played the role of Shi Qian, the flea on the drum, in the TV series "Water Margin". No wonder Gu Wei felt that he looked familiar.
After filming for a day and a night, both the crew members and the actors could not bear it any longer, so the director announced that everyone could go back to the hotel to rest for a day and continue filming at night.
Gu Wei walked to the edge of the set, took the mineral water handed to him by his assistant and took a sip.
"Boss, do you want me to take some pictures of the area where you were injured just now?"
Assistant Yang Dan asked while standing nearby.
When shooting action scenes, injuries are inevitable.
Especially since Gu Wei's opponent Liu Fengchao's weapon is a soft weapon like a meteor hammer. Even if he is very skilled in using it, it is normal to have occasional bumps.
In addition, during the fight, two people may fall due to improper movements or unstable center of gravity.
There must be several bruises on Gu Wei’s arms and thighs now.
He didn't care about this minor injury though. With his physical condition, he just needed to rest for a while. The crew couldn't delay filming just because of his fall. These minor bruises were common for action actors.
"Why are you taking pictures?"
Gu Wei asked doubtfully, he didn't quite get the point of the question.
"Nowadays, even famous stars who get injured while filming will take selfies and post them on Weibo to show how hard they work and how dedicated they are to their work. Fans love to see this."
Gu Wei suddenly realized.
It's like the saying goes that if you get injured while filming, go to the hospital in time, otherwise it will heal by the time you leave it.
Also, my idol is super hardworking. He trains for 25 hours a day and insists on filming with a high fever of 45 degrees.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. It's normal to have bumps and bruises during filming, and I don't need to work hard on my marketing."
The assistant was a little confused. It was very common nowadays for celebrities to work hard on marketing. From Korean idols to popular stars in the domestic entertainment industry, everyone did this, and fans liked to see this.
Things like I feel sorry for my brother, he is the hardest working person in the world, etc.
But Gu Wei is the boss, so he only needs to go to the admissions office to make any request he makes.
Just when Gu Wei was concentrating on filming on the set, Wu Jing encountered a trouble that was neither big nor small.
"Wolf Warrior" has been scheduled to be released nationwide on April 2nd. As the leading actor, director and investor, Wu Jing has been very busy recently.
In order to promote the movie, he appeared on many variety shows and talk shows.
However, in a variety show [Big Names Arrive], the host Hua Shao took out a group of photos of the popular boy group EXO and asked Wu Jing if he recognized them.
Maybe the photo was a little too effeminate, and Wu Jing had never heard of EXO, so he blurted out, "Is this a boy or a girl?"
When Hua Shao heard Wu Jing's answer, he quickly came out to smooth things over: "They are all boys, they are all boy groups."
Wu Jing also realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, and wanted to ease the embarrassment: "It's fine~"
However, the wrong words could not be taken back. After the show was broadcast, loyal fans of the EXO boy group were angered by Wu Jing's question of "Is it a boy or a girl?", and then a huge wave of anger hit Wu Jing.
In an instant, Wu Jing's Weibo and Tieba turned into a battlefield with bullets flying everywhere.
Because EXO's fan base is too large, Wu Jing Bar was unable to resist and was quickly "conquered", and it was filled with all kinds of disgusting insults.
They demanded that Wu Jing immediately apologize for his inappropriate remarks.
These are all acceptable, at least things are still within the scope of everyone's understanding. The next part is the most outrageous.
[Have you heard? Someone named Jing got terribly criticized online recently!]
[It seems like this happened. Why was he scolded? ]
[It was because of the fans who attacked EXO for being androgynous. It was so miserable.]
[What? You're cursing my idol? What's his name?! I want to curse him too!]
[Let me think, his name seems to be Pu Jing. Yes! That's him!]
So, some "enthusiastic netizens" who had no idea what was going on also joined the verbal battle, cursing him first without caring about who "Jing" was. As a result, they went to Pu Jing's forum and started to rant, leaving Pu Jing and Wu Jing confused.
There are even more outrageous ones. Some people even left harsh words under Pu Jing's forum, threatening to "die", saying "If Pu Jing doesn't apologize to EXO, I won't have breakfast tomorrow."
This action almost made Wu Jing die of laughter. Fans also shouted to Pu Jing, "Be a man and take responsibility for your actions! Apologize! Apologize immediately!"
