Chapter 416. [The Return of the King](1/2)
Basically three hours have passed since this scene was filmed.
The scene that followed was the Monkey King being escorted to the heaven to be tortured. He was first beheaded, and then struck by lightning, but he was all unscathed. Finally, the Supreme Lord came up with the idea to use the monkey head to make elixirs.
So the Monkey King was stuffed into Taishang Laojun's Bagua Furnace, where there was a great storm and he was forced to refine the elixir.
But who would have thought that the Monkey King has great magical powers. Just when everyone thought he was being refined into a golden elixir, he jumped out as soon as the Bagua furnace was opened. Not only did he not die, he also developed piercing eyes!
So now the heaven is bustling.
The Monkey King officially caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace. None of the heavenly soldiers and generals in the Heavenly Palace could catch him, but he beat him to a pulp. Even the Jade Emperor was so frightened that he crawled under his chair. He had no choice but to shout: "Hurry up."
Go and invite the Tathagata Buddha of the West!"
The last scene used almost all special effects.
The Monkey King, played by Yi Feiyang, met the Tathagata Buddha from the West who came to "rescue" him. The Monkey King made rude remarks and asked the Jade Emperor to give up the throne and take a seat by himself. The Tathagata Buddha scolded him and then made a bet with him.
, if the Monkey King can fly out of his palm, let him sit in the heaven. If not, quickly return to his Flower and Fruit Mountain.
The Monkey King didn't know what the plan was and flew into the palm of Tathagata Buddha. Finally, he flipped his hand and pinned him under the Five Fingers Mountain.
Needless to say, the special effects of this scene were great, but in order to make it look more realistic, Yi Feiyang, who played the role of the Monkey King, went through a lot of hardships. First, he asked the crew to build a rockery nearly ten meters high. Of course, this rockery was
Made of plastic foam, and then using the method of hanging wire, he fell from the sky - and then the rockery came down!
The sky is falling and the earth is falling, and the dust is flying!
Although this Wuzhi Mountain is fake, it still has a lot of weight. He suppressed it all at once, even though Yi Feiyang ate overnight porridge and learned kung fu, he still felt pain in his back, chest tightness and breathlessness!
At this time, all he could do was try his best to shout out: "CUT!"
Yes, that’s downtime!
Filming is over!
The staff hurriedly and laboriously moved a gap in the rockery, and then pulled poor Yifeiyang out from underneath.
Yi Feiyang's body ached all over, like a refugee who had just been rescued from a major earthquake.
After taking a breath, Yi Feiyang took the handed mineral water, took a few sips, and then poured the entire bottle of water on his head.
It wasn't until he calmed down that he walked to the camera to watch the playback, that is, to see how the scene he had just filmed turned out.
Assistant director Cindy gave up her seat, and Yi Feiyang sat down and took a closer look. Everyone around him was too angry to kick him and stared at him.
Yi Feiyang read it again and again.
Everyone in the crew was silent. They looked at Yi Feiyang and stared at his mouth.
"Boss, have you passed the test?" Cindy stood behind the camera, her face turning red due to nervousness.
Yi Feiyang turned around and looked at everyone. Then he nodded heavily.
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
…
The cheers rang out like a wave, not only from the crew, but also from the extras who played the monkey grandson and the heavenly soldiers. After such a long period of hard work, the film was finally successfully completed at this moment.
"Okay, let's call it a day! Let's go drink together!" Yi Feiyang stood up, with a rare expression of joy on his face, and waved vigorously to everyone.
Cindy and others were going crazy, and with their men, the set was cleaned up in less than half an hour. The group of people retreated to the temporary banquet set up while singing.
Beside the open-air banquet, the old village chief, who had provided the greatest help to the crew this time, had been waiting eagerly for a long time.
He only knew that Yi Feiyang's crew would be filming the final scene today, but he didn't know when it would be completed. However, this did not affect him from arranging a banquet and waiting for the heroes' triumphant return.
This Zhuang village will surely turn into a sea of joy tonight.
When the crew members came over, everyone was stunned by the extremely sumptuous closing banquet.
There was a dazzling array of various delicacies and countless fine wines. Of course, all these meals and drinks were prepared by the old village chief. During this period, Yi Feiyang also spent a lot of money purchasing them from big hotels outside.
All in all, there was an open-air banquet that was as big as a football field, with bonfires rising and people buzzing.
Those beautiful Zhuang girls dressed in exquisite costumes sang and danced around the bonfire.
Yi Feiyang, the old village chief and others toasted and drank, clinking glasses in celebration. The whole scene was extremely happy.
Holding the wine glass, the old village chief took a sip, and then said to Yi Feiyang: "Ayang, do you really want to go back tomorrow?"
Yi Feiyang nodded and said, "I'm reluctant to leave, but this drama still needs to be returned to the United States for final post-production, which is also a big project."
"I understand this. You are from the United States and of course you have to return to the United States, but I am afraid that I, an old man, will miss you by then!" the old village chief said with some emotion.
Yi Feiyang smiled and said, "That's simple. As long as you miss me, I will fly back from the United States to see everyone, see the mountains, the water, and the people here! I will never forget your help to me in my life."
I can’t, let alone forget everyone’s kindness to me!”
"Haha, it's great that you have such a heart! Come and have a drink with us!" The old village chief raised his glass and drank with Yi Feiyang. At this time, the little girl Bao'er also came over, holding rice wine, and insisted on toasting with Yi Feiyang.
, in the words of a little girl, this is her happiest day, and she must have a drink. Yi Feiyang said, little girls cannot drink. Baoer said back, rice wine does not count as wine! As soon as he said this
, making everyone laugh.
That night, everyone drank a lot of wine. The depressed mood originally caused by filming was released. They sang drunkenly and drank heavily for fun.
Yi Feiyang also drank a lot of wine, so much so that when he walked back to the tent, his legs were a little uncontrollable. Logically speaking, he had a large capacity for alcohol, but he drank so much that he couldn't help but get drunk.
The tent was dark, and the drunk Yi Feiyang lay down directly. He slept until midnight, but felt a little cool. Yi Feiyang pulled the blanket, but it was pulled away. When he opened his eyes, he didn't know that the little girl
Bao'er also got in at some point and was curled up next to him like a kitten.
Yi Feiyang couldn't help but burst into laughter. He stood up, covered Bao'er with a blanket, and then walked out of the tent. But he felt his mouth was extremely dry, and he was about to turn around to find some water when he suddenly heard someone talking on the phone.
In the darkness, the man looked very nervous and excited, "No, I can't do this, yes. We spent countless efforts to film this drama, and I can't burn it!"
"Really? What about the money you owe the casino? Are you willing to be thrown into the sea and fed to sharks? Haha, dear Mr. Kerkorian doesn't have such good patience!"
"Then please tell Mr. Kerkorian that even if I die, I will not burn the master tapes of this drama!"
"Don't give me a toast or a fine drink! Do you really think that China Yi values you very much? No, he is just using you. Let you do some bullshit as an assistant director. God, everyone knows, even if this "Big Brother"
"Heavenly Palace" is really popular, but he is the famous one. You have no credit at all! So, you have to think clearly. Mr. Cindy, is he cooperating with Mr. Kerkorian and betraying that damn Chinese Yi! Or is he guarding you?
The so-called cheap and worthless morality, struggling to the death, and finally throwing us into the sea to feed the fish?!"
Cindy, it’s Cindy!
The assistant director I just supported!!
Yi Feiyang was shocked.
In fact, after hearing this, Yi Feiyang roughly understood what happened. It seemed that Kerkorian was so anxious to defeat himself that he even thought of the clumsy method of burning the master tapes. Poor Cindy didn't know why.
I owed the casino a large amount of money and was actually threatened by them.
"Hurry up and make a decision, Mr. Cindy, you don't have much time left. Yes, you have to make a decision! You know, if you really choose to die for bullshit loyalty, we will be very happy, at least we have witnessed a
A principled and moral guy... But the ones who are unhappy may be your family, your wife, and your children. What should they do? Are you asking them to be beggars on the street?!" the tone on the phone.
Became contemptuous and cold.
Hearing the warning on the phone, Cindy was trembling all over. Yes, he didn't know what to do at this time. He was not afraid of death, but he still had a family, a wife and children. If he died, they would
what to do?
Just as Cindy was holding the phone and struggling in her heart, a man came over and took away his phone, and then said sarcastically: "Please tell Mr. Kerkorian that I will pay for Cindy's money."
Also! Also, don’t harass his family in the future! One last sentence, if you want to defeat me, show him for real in a movie. What kind of hero is he who engages in such obscene actions in private?"
The other end of the phone was surprised, "Who are you?!"
"Yi Feiyang!" Click, Yi Feiyang hung up the phone and handed it to Cindy who looked at him dumbfounded.
Cindy was dumbfounded and took the phone for a long time, "Boss, I..."
"No need to say it, no need to explain it, I know it all, yes, I know it all!" Yi Feiyang patted Cindy on the shoulder, "You are good, at least I did not misjudge the person, and you can make friends with me, Yi Feiyang
Yes, they are all good!"
"But I almost agreed to them..." Cindy said with a cry, "I almost betrayed the boss!"
"I understand where you're coming from, man, so I don't blame you, and yeah, you did a good job!"
Hearing Yifeiyang speak for herself like this, Cindy could no longer suppress her inner emotions, hugged Yifeiyang and started crying.
Yi Feiyang said nothing, just patted his back, which would make him feel better.
The crying woke up Bao'er in the tent. She walked out in a daze, only to see two grown men hugging each other, one of whom was still crying loudly.
Immediately, the little girl turned her head and said: "I didn't see anything, you continue!" She thought in her heart, no wonder the director uncle would disdain a Loli beauty like herself, it turns out he has this kind of hobby!
How did Yi Feiyang know that Bao'er had a very strange misunderstanding about him? At this moment, what he was thinking about was how to defeat the gambling king Kerkorian and the MGM he controlled!
Yes, MGM today is not as prosperous as it used to be, and seven or eight of its ten films even suffered losses, but that's because Kerkorian didn't put his thoughts into it. But things are different now, Kerkorian
Under the instigation of Sony Akio Morita and with the help of the great director Cameron, An was determined to be the king of Hollywood. As the most influential person in Hollywood, he and his own Fantasy Entertainment became his stumbling blocks.
.
To kick him out, he must defeat Fantasy Entertainment. If Kirklian can think of using Cindy's identity as assistant director to burn the master tapes that he worked so hard to shoot, then there must be other tricks to deal with him.
To be continued...
