Chapter 312 Scholar

In a vintage two-story brick building in Nanwei, Saigon, Hong Kong.

Other furniture on the second floor have been emptied, leaving only one table as a gambling table. The four cameras are respectively set up in different positions in front of the gambling table, but Li Xuan is preparing to use multiple cameras to shoot a scene in order to catch the show.

Liu Dehua wore a denim suit and a big back, looking very ruffian and very handsome. The person standing next to Liu Dehua as his guest starred in the company was Ye Weixin, who had been working in the company for several months. This guy got his wish and got his job on the set and is no longer a person who knows nothing about movies.

But what is more noticeable in the crew is the famous "big fool" Cheng Kui'an, who was later famous. He played the role of the gangster who opened a small gambling game in "God of Gambling". Originally, he was from the Li Xiuxian's Li family class, but Li Xiuxian is now a free agent and investing in movies everywhere, so Li Xuan borrowed Cheng Kui'an directly.

Moreover, it was different from the nicknames of Li Xuan's later generations after he thought that "Dasha" was Cheng Kui'an's nickname after becoming famous in movies. At this time, Li Xuan realized that "Dasha" was a nickname that Cheng Kui'an had since childhood. So Li Xuan was too lazy to change the name of this gangster leader, so he called "Dasha Brother", which was very appropriate.

So now when the people in the crew saw Cheng Kui'an, they grew up and screamed. Cheng Kui'an, who was vicious on his face, was not angry, but instead made a fuss with everyone.

In the next scene where Liu Dehua bet against others, his opponent Li Xuan was replaced by Wu Mengda as a supporting role. This movie has only two shots and even a single line. It was a Easter egg that Li Xuan deliberately made, specially prepared for the next movie "The Gambling Saint".

He was deeply influenced by American easter eggs in later generations and had these evil things.

As for the usury boss played by Wu Mengda in the original film, he was handed over to Yuan Hua to play a guest role. Anyway, he played many bad guys, not just one or two more.

Four or five "gamblers" were sitting around the gambling table, while Cheng Kui'an, who was not angry and furious, was standing next to the gambling table. However, he did not stare at the fraudster, but was playing against Liu Dehua.

Huang Yuetai, Li Xuan's imperial cameraman, is now becoming increasingly high. He likes to take disciples and has already graduated with several disciples. Now it can be said that more than half of Xuanyuan's cameraman were taught by him. At this time, as the camera director of "God of Gambling", he is teaching the last teaching of the four cameramen in the control of the camera position.

Seeing that the time was almost over, Li Xuan asked loudly: "Are you all ready?"

“OK!”

"Okay, the director will start."

"The camera is OK, too."

“…”

Li Xuan nodded. While sitting down, he said, "Everyone is buried in their own seats and is ready to start shooting!"

"The 18th Game of God of Gamblers" is filmed 3 times, Action!"

"Bang!"

Ye Weixin, who looked a little sick with a little makeup, stood behind Liu Dehua, stared at the small eyes and said, "Uh, boss, we are only one o'clock at 8 o'clock."

"You are dead head. Damn!" Liu Dehua slapped Ye Weixin's crow's mouth, and picked up the cards in his hand with a tangled expression and shouted in a low voice: "Out, out, out..."

"Out, out, out..." Ye Weixin also started shouting from the side.

"Not nine, no nine, no nine..." Liu Dehua looked at the trump card in his hand. His expression suddenly changed from nervousness to excitement, and Ye Weixin also suddenly laughed beside him.

"Haha--" Liu Dehua opened the trump card and threw it on the table, and smiled proudly: "Hold on, it's eight o'clock, haha."

After taking this long shot, Li Xuan quickly took a look at the second camera. This is a close-up of Cheng Kui'an's upper body. He saw Cheng Kui'an's face paused in the monitor, and he slapped the gambling table and shouted: "Kill all!"

These lenses are almost fixed lenses. So the camera doesn't need to be moved, and the actors can walk in a good position. According to the following shots, Li Xuan looked at the number three again. This one shot the medium shot, and could almost capture the entire gambling table.

Liu Dehua stood up and shouted at Cheng Kui'an: "Oh! Eight o'clock is against eight o'clock, it is obviously a fight, how could it be a killing?"

After saying this, the No. 4 camera also began its shot, but it was a close-up scene of Liu Dehua and Cheng Kui'an fighting.

"My rules here are the same as killing!" Cheng Kui'an said viciously while pointing at his feet.

Liu Dehua argued with reason: "You are robbing!"

"Hmph. This alley belongs to mine, the house belongs to mine, and I will decide the rules. If I say you can kill me, I will kill me. If you talk nonsense, I will throw you downstairs." Cheng Kui'an cursed with a fierce look on his face.

"Fart--" Liu Dehua cursed loudly.

"Click—"

Li Xuan shouted loudly and shouted: "Huazi and Dasha both have good acting skills. After this, everyone is ready to prepare. Let's shoot the next scene!"

Cheng Kui'an just said it was indeed good. This place was indeed his territory. This person with a vicious face was very popular in his hometown. Even this half-breaking and half-old brick building was borrowed by him with his uncle, which saved Li Xuan some trouble.

Next, the crew was divided into two groups. Li Xuan's group continued to shoot the scene where Daozai brought the god of gambling to cheat money, while Huang Yuetai took a cameraman to the outside of the building to film the scene where Daozai was thrown down by a gambling thug. Of course, the person who threw it down was definitely not Liu Dehua, but a life-threatening Dragon and Tiger Martial Artsman. If Liu Dehua is injured, many of his previous scenes will be in vain.

Zhou Runfa's acting skills are much better than the previous two, and he was trained by Wang Jin for a month. He is not a cliché when he acts in comedy, so this injured and mentally retarded god of gambling is naturally no problem.

The group worked overtime and rushed to shoot quickly. For this reason, Li Xuan also called on most of the company's resources. As a result, nearly three-quarters of the scene were filmed in about two weeks, and the shooting speed was comparable to that of the fast gunman Wang Jin.

However, in mid-November, even if Li Xuan was in a hurry, he had to stop the filming of "God of Gambling" and put the entire crew off for three days.

Of course, Li Xuan did not want to attend Shao Renmei's funeral. Although Shao Renmei's mourning ceremony was only in these few days, he had only met Shao Renmei and was not familiar enough to go to Singapore to pay his respects.

The main reason is that the 20th Taiwan Golden Horse Awards are about to open.

As for "The True Character of Heroes", which won many nominations for the Golden Horse Awards, the crew naturally had to participate in the Golden Horse Awards. Without Zhou Runfa's "God of Gambling", it would be impossible to continue filming. Li Xuan was also nominated for the Best Movie Interlude, and now the directors of "God of Gambling" are no longer in Hong Kong.

In recent years, Taiwan’s democratic atmosphere has become increasingly strong, and the Golden Horse Awards has also begun to resist quietly this year. This can be seen from the time of the Golden Horse Awards this year that has been postponed for more than half a month.

Why did most of the Golden Horse Awards choose to draw on October 31 in the past? Even if it is postponed or advanced, it will be a few days away.

That's because October 31st is Mr. Jiang's birthday, and the lottery is chosen on this day, which also has a certain sense of celebration. From the date of its birth, the Golden Horse Award is a movie award with a strong political and personal color.

This year, the Golden Horse Awards were postponed for half a month.

Although there was a lot of fun in Taiwan, Li Xuan rarely paid attention to those things. As long as the movie could be released there safely, it would be great. This time he went to Taiwan, he not only participated in the Golden Horse Awards, but also to meet the scholar's boss Cai Songlin and build a good relationship.

However, Li Xuan didn't expect Cai Songlin to come so quickly.

The crew of "The True Heroes" came to the hotel arranged by the Kaohsiung Golden Horse Awards Organizing Committee, and each scattered and rested, preparing to attend the Golden Horse Awards at night. As the nominal heroine of "The True Heroes", although Zhong Chuhong was not nominated like the Golden Horse Awards, she still came to participate due to Taiwan's influence.

On this side, Zhong Chuhong was packing her and Li Xuan's clothes, while on the other side, Li Xuan turned on the TV set and watched Taiwan TV programs casually. But after only ten minutes of watching, he heard knocking on the door.

Li Xuan was not very interested in TV shows of this era, so he turned off the TV and ran to open the door.

"Mr. Li..."

As soon as the door opened, Li Xuan saw Li Guoxin of his company standing at the door, and there were two strangers standing behind him. The last one looked like a little brother holding a bag, and the most attractive thing to Li Xuan was the elegant man standing in the middle with a slightly "panda-eyed" look.
