Chapter 525 Chapter 524, finalized

Qin Palace

It is magnificent and spectacular, with a building every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps; the corridors are winding and the eaves are high, each building conforms to the terrain and is full of intrigue.

The towering city walls and the palace complement each other. The main palace, the "Four Seas Return to One Hall", stands majestically, towering and straight, vividly showing the magnificent momentum of the King of Qin annexing the six kingdoms and unifying the world.

In the square in front of the palace, thousands of soldiers wearing black armor and holding iron spears stood solemnly.

At this moment, someone suddenly yelled:
"There are assassins."

Hearing this sound, thousands of well-trained soldiers did not panic at all. In less than a moment, they quickly formed an armored square formation, with their spears pointed diagonally forward, blocking the Qin King's palace.

...

Standing in the arch of the city wall and looking at the scene in front of her, Zhang Manyu, who was wearing green clothes, clapped excitedly.

"A Feng, don't mention it, it's really great!

Looking at this momentum in front of me, I really thought I had traveled back to the Qin Dynasty."

Not only Zhang Manyu was excited, even Jiang Feng had tears in his eyes.

In that life, he was Lao Ai, the "stepfather" of King Ying Zheng of Qin. He also wanted to seize the world. However, his plan was exposed, and the forces under his command were strangled by the well-trained Qin army.

He was also sentenced to death by being torn apart by a chariot.

However, although he died, Jiang Feng now had no resentment. Instead, he hummed the old song.

"Old Qin, let us face the national crisis together!
There will be no truce until the blood has dried!"

When Jiang Feng was preparing to go on stage for filming, Zhang Yimou had been observing him through the screen on the director's monitor. The reason for this was that he could not intervene in the filming of the martial arts scenes, so it would be better for him to observe the actors' preparations before going on stage.

You know, before a movie is released, the crew will cut the shots of the actors before they go on stage into highlights, which will then be broadcast as promotional videos on major TV stations across the country.

When Zhang Yimou saw Jiang Feng's preparations through the camera, his eyes immediately became wet.

"Old Qin, let us face the national crisis together!
There will be no truce until the blood has dried!"

Sure enough, Jiang Feng understands himself.

Before the filming of the movie "Hero", many people were angry and opposed to it. They believed that the script of the movie glorified the tyrant Qin Shi Huang.

But Zhang Yimou felt in his heart that Qin Shihuang was not a tyrant. He was a truly great emperor throughout history. Among all the emperors in later generations, no one could match his historical achievements.

If King Ying Zheng of Qin knew that primary and secondary school students in later generations were troubled by learning English, he would not blame his descendants for not working hard enough. Instead, he would blame himself for not doing well enough and for not truly unifying the world in his lifetime.

I'm a little touched.

He pulled out a tissue from the front and wiped his eyes. When Zhang Yimou shifted his attention to the picture on the director's monitor again, he saw that Jiang Feng, with a coercive strap on his body, had already started fighting with the group of soldiers in the square in front of the Qin Palace.

Two green figures holding Qin swords flew up and down among the black-armored soldiers.

Seeing that Jiang Feng and Zhang Manyu put on a great fight, Zhang Yimou wanted to pick up the intercom out of habit and praise Jiang Feng loudly, saying that he did a good job.

But at this time I realized that all the intercoms around the director's monitor had been put away.

The reason is very simple, that is, the command of the filming of martial arts scenes now belongs to Cheng Xiaodong, not Zhang Yimou.

...

"Jiang Feng, the shot was great, especially the jump and turn in the air, it even had a bit of the flavor of Jet Li's filming of 'Swordsman'."

During the break of the martial arts scene, Jiang Feng, who was tied up and intimidated, came down from the air. The martial arts instructor Cheng Xiaodong was the first to come over and threw a bottle of mineral water at him.

Jiang Feng moved quickly, stretched out his hand to catch the mineral water, gulped down a few mouthfuls, and then poured the remaining mineral water on his face.

There is no way. The small town in the south of the Yangtze River is still sweltering with heat in August. Not to mention jumping and fighting, even standing in the sun for a while will make you sweat profusely.

Of course, the extras were even hotter, because they were wearing black armor weighing more than 4 kilograms, which could burn their delicate skin when exposed to the sun. Fortunately, Zhang Yimou borrowed 4 sprinkler trucks from Dongyang Municipal Engineering Company, and whenever there was a break, these sprinkler trucks would spray water on the extras.

Looking at the extras around him, they could get water to drink as soon as the work stopped. Only then did Jiang Feng start chatting with Cheng Xiaodong.

"Director Cheng, thank you for the compliment.

At that time, I was fighting in the air, and suddenly I felt that the Eight Immortals Sword and Wudang swordsmanship that I had practiced for a while had little influence among these soldiers.

It's not as powerful as the sword-swinging and sword-breaking styles performed by Jet Li on the screen, so I imitated it temporarily, what do you think?
Looks pretty powerful, doesn’t it? "

"It's not just powerful, it's extremely powerful!" These words were said by Zhang Manyu. It has been more than four months since the two of them met at the Shichahai Sports School. They have been together day and night, and she has learned a lot of witty remarks from Jiang Feng.

Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, Jiang Feng and Cheng Xiaodong burst into laughter.

“Maggie…”

"Ok?"

“Let’s do our next scene, I plan to shoot it like this.

Jiang Feng and you see that there are more and more soldiers. Even if you have great martial arts skills, you can't kill all these soldiers.

So you stood back to back, looked at each other, and came up with an idea. Jiang Feng leaped up, stepped on the soldier's helmet in the air to gain momentum, and rushed straight to the Qin Palace.

On your side, try to stop these soldiers and buy time for Jiang Feng to assassinate Qin Wang Zheng."

"Okay." Zhang Manyu agreed.

"No problem." Jiang Feng nodded and stood at the shooting scene again.

“Ready…, go!”

As soon as action director Cheng Xiaodong gave the order, Jiang Feng leaped and flew above the heads of the soldiers.

……

When Jiang Feng and Zhang Manyu were filming in front of the Qin Palace, Chen Daoming came.

When I arrived at the shooting site, I shook hands with director Zhang Yimou.

Although Chen Daoming is also one of the leading actors in the movie "Hero", since there was no scene with Chen Daoming before, he only appeared when the filming started, and he did not come to the crew for more than two months. This time, it was Chen Daoming's first time to come, and he seemed particularly excited.

Following behind him was his agent Wang Jinghua.

"Good director!"

"Oh, hello, Dao Ming!"

When he saw Chen Daoming, Zhang Yimou stood up and shook hands with him, then raised his hand and greeted Wang Jinghua.

"Daoming, you're here quite early. Actually, you can join the group tomorrow."

"Well, Director, I heard that Zhang Manyu and Jiang Feng shoot scenes very quickly. Sometimes they can shoot for several days without making any NGs. So I'm afraid of wasting the crew's time, so I came to report to you in advance."

"Haha, Daoming, you are right. I was lucky with Zhang Manyu and Jiang Feng. As long as they are the ones working together in a scene, there will never be any NGs in the middle." Having said this, Zhang Yimou turned around and looked at Wang Jinghua.

"Sister Hua, you have to treat me to a meal, because when I heard that Jiang Feng was interested in taking over the directing job of "Big Shot", I rearranged the filming schedule of "Hero" and planned to complete the filming of Jiang Feng's part in this movie within 3 days."

"Thank you, director."

Upon hearing the news, Wang Jinghua's face was full of smiles.

Jiang Feng's scene can be filmed in 3 days. It seems that Jiang Feng's directing of "Big Shot" is a foregone conclusion.
