There is a genre film with a wide audience called youth film. American youth films are messy and bold. Their teenagers are open-minded. They have parties since childhood, engage in fraternities and sororities, play rugby, form bands, form groups to fly, engage in premature sexual behavior, etc... Chinese-language youth films are relatively restrained. Regardless of mainland China, Hong Kong, or Taiwan, many of them still adhere to Chinese education. Especially in the Mainland, bullying, puppy love, love triangles, abortion, and nothing else. The original "Happy Ghost" is actually a Western-style youth film. The three girls all come from good backgrounds. They go to a boarding school. The dormitories are all deluxe single rooms, and there are dances, camping at the beach and so on. It creates the kind of life that girls from ordinary Hong Kong families long for. Chen Qi made some changes, intensified it, and added many elements. Li Saifeng's character is Fang Jingjing, a sports girl who is carefree and aims to be a professional athlete, but has a somewhat lazy temperament and always wants to take shortcuts. Li Lizhen's character is Lin Xiaohua, a rebellious girl, precocious, loves to read romance novels, and fantasizes about Prince Charming all day long, but is deceived by a scumbag. Qiu Shuzhen's character is Yan Ruyu, an introverted nerd. Her family members are all top academics. She received a peremptory education. She has not been recognized since she was a child, and she is under great psychological pressure.
The happy ghost is called Zhu Xiucai, a man from the Qing Dynasty who repeatedly failed in exams and hanged himself. His resentment was attached to the rope used to hang himself. Chen Qi strengthened this setting. Zhu Xiucai will only come out if he carries a rope with him. The three girls were good friends. With Zhu Xiucai's help, they all thought their problems had been solved. However, they all wanted Zhu Xiucai to stay with them only. As they fought for the ownership of the rope, conflicts broke out and they broke off their friendship. At this time, Yan Ruyu performed abnormally in an exam and was scolded by her parents. She had a mental breakdown and ran to the rooftop, trying to jump off the building. Fang Jingjing and Lin Xiaohua couldn't let go of their good friends, so they risked their lives to save each other, and the three of them fell down the stairs together... A certain campus. It was a day off, so the crew of "Happy Ghost" lent it to me. They didn't pay me any money and would write a line of acknowledgment at the end of the film. The temperature in Hong Kong in October is about 20-28 degrees. I took the photo at the hottest time at noon, so it was okay to wear summer clothes. Qiu Shuzhen wears myopia glasses, a ponytail, and a school uniform modified from a sailor uniform, revealing two arms and well-shaped thighs. As for sailor uniforms, everyone must know better than me. The private photoshooting network disk clicks... Because the school was having a sports day, there were colorful flags and balloons everywhere, and the teaching building was beautifully decorated. After a while, she was going to sit on the edge of the roof, with her legs hanging down, and take a photo from below, taking a long shot. In addition, the crew built a three-meter-high fake roof for close-up shots. Chen Qi was communicating with Lin Lingdong and said: "Can we use a substitute, or only take close-up shots? This is too dangerous." "You are the boss, I listen to you!" Lin Lingdong didn't care, but added: "The effect may not be very good." "It's okay, I have protection." Qiu Shuzhen was very brave. "It's just a rope, what kind of protection is it? Come here and let me take a look!" Chen Qi called her over and checked it in person. A safety rope was tied around her waist, which would be tied somewhere on the roof to prevent her from falling. He stretched out the rope, but felt it was not strong enough, so he ordered: "Put as many cardboard boxes and inflatable mattresses as you need downstairs!" "Master, are you worried about me?" Qiu Shuzhen was just laughing.
"You call me Master, and I have to be responsible for you." "That master is not so worried about his apprentice!" "I still think of you as my sister!" Qiu Shuzhen's smile became even brighter, and Chen Qi knocked her on the head: "When you are satisfied, go up, be careful!" "Um!" She ran up, and the staff on the roof tied the rope and laid it underneath. She walked over little by little and sat on the edge shivering, not daring to look down at all. She just felt dizzy and trembling. "Azhen, take a look at the camera!" Lin Lingdong shouted. Seeing that she didn't move, he repeated it again. "Azhen, look at the camera!" "Are you okay?" "Azhen?" Lin Lingdong frowned and was about to ask someone to take a look when he suddenly heard Qiu Shuzhen shouting from above: "I can do it! I can do it!" In order to prove it, she waved her hand downwards, but from such a distance, she could be felt trembling... Lin Lingdong turned to Chen Qi, and Chen Qi nodded: "Shoot!" "Everyone takes his place!" "ACTION!" "Ayu!" Li Saifeng ran downstairs and shouted at the top: "Come down quickly, don't do anything stupid!" "Come down quickly!" Li Lizhen also shouted. After several days of training, she performed well and almost acted in her true self. She was very good at observing people's emotions and felt that Chen Qi was not interested in her, so she stopped provoking Qiu Shuzhen and just kept filming. "Don't worry about me, we have broken off our friendship!" Qiu Shuzhen said. "What kind of friendship is this?" "Wait a minute, we're going up!" The two ran towards the building. "Click!" "OK!" Lin Lingdong was very satisfied. This was passed. After a while, Qiu Shuzhen came downstairs with a pale face. Her calves were still trembling. She was afraid of heights. "Would you like to take a rest?"
"It's okay, it's okay, I can do it!" "Why are you working so hard all of a sudden?" Chen Qi was surprised. "You signed up for me, don't you want to embarrass yourself!" Qiu Shuzhen calmed down a little and immediately took over the next scene. The crew built a three-meter-high fake roof with air cushions underneath. She sat on it, and Moon Lee and Loletta Lee stood behind. "We broke up, what are you doing here?" "Ayu, come here, come here first!" "We are lifelong friends, we will never break up, come here first!" The two of them walked slowly forward while persuading her. Qiu Shuzhen was actually also loose and didn't want to jump off the building. As a result, when she was trying to stand up, she slipped and fell straight down. "Ayu!" The two rushed forward in a hurry, trying to hold her, but they didn't hold her, and were dragged down with them. "Ka!" "Next scene!" After the three fell down, there would be an empty shot of the roof, and then! Zhu Xiucai cast a spell and wrapped three large strings of balloons around them. The colorful balloons would float up first, and the three girls were below. During the filming, the balloons were just decorations, and the real thing to take them flying was the wire. "Ahhh!" The girls screamed, thinking they were going to fall to their death, but they found something wrong. They looked up and saw that they were actually flying in the air, with beautiful balloons and their best friends. In the camera, the three girls flew higher and higher, almost reaching the maximum height of the wire. They went from panic to surprise, and stood in a row, holding hands tightly, with the background of blue sky and white clouds, the wind of midsummer... A fantasy and romance that was not logical but very cute came over them. Xian Qiran was also there, watching this scene, and suddenly sighed: "So this is how youth films are shot?" "I originally thought it was just to find a few beautiful girls, playing around in school, having a relationship, and gossiping... Who knew it wasn't like that!" Lin Lingdong also sighed: "Youth films need a feeling." The two turned back and looked at Chen Qi. No wonder he said that after the release of "Happy Ghost", they would become the envy of all girls in Hong Kong. (No more!)
