Yu Shi, who shoots three arrows in a row on horseback and rides a horse without a stand-in, makes many actors blush?

Gotta get a movie

2024-05-12 12:44Posted in Hebei Entertainment Creators

Exploded, exploded again.

In July last year, "Fengshen Part 1" won a box office of 2.6 billion in the tap water of thousands of netizens.

The movie is on fire, the second part is on the agenda, and the leading actors have also entered the audience's field of vision, and the proton brigade bravely entered the entertainment industry.

Among them, "Ji Fa" Yu Shi is the most eye-catching.

After "Fengshen", Yu Shi was awarded the Most Influential Young Actor of the Year, and various collaborations in covers, endorsements, and variety shows came one after another, and everyone was looking forward to his next movie.

Xiqi is the wild.

didn't wait for Yu Shi's new movie, but waited for the news of his crossover TV series.

And the subject matter is even more novel, and it actually challenged a prose TV series-

"My Altay"

This drama is adapted from the essay collection of the same name by writer Li Juan, which records the bits and pieces of Li Juan's life in northern Xinjiang, and the series integrates all the stories and makes a stream-of-consciousness TV series with a strong breath of life.

The director is Teng Congcong, who was nominated for the Best Director Newcomer Award at the Shanghai Film Festival for "Send Me to Qingyun", starring Ma Yili, Yu Shi, Zhou Yiyi, and Jiang Qiming.

From the original book to the behind-the-scenes to the cast, it feels like a spring breeze and is very weighty.

CCTV gave a prime-time broadcast position, and the ratings directly broke 1, and the webcast results were also very gratifying, and it soared to the first place immediately after it was launched.

Word of mouth also exploded.

The score of 8.5 rose to 8.6, and the unique slow-key style made people feel comfortable, and many people chased a few episodes and even placed an order to buy the original book overnight to satisfy their hunger.

After watching 8 episodes, what surprised me the most was Yu Shi on horseback.

Please lock Yu Shi on horseback, thank you

The plot is about a 19-year-old girl with a dream of being a writer, and the story of what happened to the local villagers after going to northern Xinjiang to seek refuge with her mother, but I don't want to repeat the details, after all, this type is not a big plot design.

You have to feel the atmosphere of life, not understand the plot.

Chasing the whole drama, the biggest drawback is that the duration is too short, the number of episodes is too small, and it was tied before I came back to my senses.

And the biggest advantage, in addition to the refreshing image style, the biggest brilliance is none other than - Yu Shi.

He was pleasantly surprised.

In the play, he plays the role of the Kazakh nomadic boy "Batai".

Just this gentle and wild face makes people can't take their eyes off, and the setting of the nomad also has a natural fit with Yu Shi himself.

Let's not talk about handsome.

As a nation on horseback, Yu Shi's riding skills can also be said to be unique in the entertainment industry.

Behold?

The opening scene is a high-energy play.

As a horse trainer, Batai interacts on horseback in the horse farm, and the director gives a stop-motion long shot.

It's not just horseback riding, it's communication.

You can clearly feel the connection between Yu Shi and the horse, they become one, the horse almost does not move in front of the camera, and rotates in a circle according to Yu Shi's instructions.

This technique is by no means something that can be done in a few days of training, and behind it is a lot of experience and the confidence of the rider.

Then there was the regular horse ride, perhaps because it was too simple, Yu Shi not only rode a horse, but also led a horse on the right side.

The posture, expression, and technique are impeccable.

As the first time the male and female protagonists met, Yu Shi appeared on horseback.

A sudden stop with an indifferent expression, coupled with a 180° highlight surrounding, is so handsome that he has no friends.

This action seems simple, but in fact, it requires a lot of horseback riding experience, and controlling two horses without changing their complexions is definitely hard work.

Normal horseback riding is even more obvious.

Compared with other actors who picked up the reins and were dragged by horses, Yu Shicai really "rode" the horse.

With one hand on the reins and his head held high, he scurried across the horse team, chatting with the tables in front and behind, coming and going freely.

After the speed came up, Yu Shi's posture was still impeccable.

The sheep scene in the fifth episode is a concentrated embodiment of Yu Shi's horseback riding skills.

Holding the sheepskin in his left hand, he can also lead the horse's head to move around while maintaining speed, and dominate the horse team.

If he hadn't watched "Fengshen", who knew he would be an actor?

When I thought it was amazing enough, Yu Shi gave all the audience a fierce blow.

In the fourth episode, the heroine and her mother had a misunderstanding with Ba Tai's father, and Ba Tai was ordered to stop the heroine's family.

Just watch him spur the horse, holding the bow in his left hand and holding the reins in his right hand, standing up with the rhythm of the horse's body, and running on the grassland with one man and one horse.

And when he ran to the maximum speed, he actually freed his hands to make a "big scatter", and shot three arrows in a row with a bow in both hands.

Draw the bow, aim, shoot, all in one go.

Give me a handsome one, don't don't!

This is also the kind of aborigines with extremely strong combat effectiveness, right?

In the last episode, Yu Shi staged horseback archery again, this time with a more free and easy posture, changing from the front to the side.

And did you find it?

All Yu Shi's horse riding scenes, almost all the shots are large panoramas, and Yu Shi and the horses have a panoramic view, not to mention the horse trainer secretly helping, and there is no possibility of borrowing a seat.

Why?

Because he is one of the few professional riders in the entertainment industry who has actually won awards!

Horse riding, genuine fakes are very different

In 2018, Yu Shi was selected by the crew of "Fengshen" and entered the training camp after 24 weeks of training.

He not only trained his tendons, but also mastered horseback riding, archery, martial arts, fitness, basketball, diving and other skills.

One of the proton groups is a random Spartan warrior in the entertainment industry.

And Yu Shi has a soft spot for horseback riding, and even after leaving the crew, he still regularly goes to the racecourse for training.

From 2020 to 2023, Yu Shi applied for a training class for professional riding and archery training, obtained numerous certificates, and finally even signed up for the 2023 Mounted Archery World Cup Asian group stage.

China has a total of 7 players, and Yu Shi is on the list.

Don't think he's playing, he's a champion seed.

During the game, Yu Shi rode around the field on horseback, leaning almost to 60 degrees on the galloping horse, drawing his bow and volleying 5 shots in a row.

That gesture! No wonder he was asked to play Ji Fa!

Yu Shi achieved very good results in this event, and Yu Shi also had a figure in other competitions.

In the "National Elite Invitational Tournament" held in Guangdong, Yu Shi even won the competition bonus.

This proves that in the professional field, his ability is still at the top level.

That's why it's the real guy who looks good when he goes into battle.

"My Altay" is a work with a northern Xinjiang background, and the actors need a lot of horseback riding, and the nomadic characters are accompanied by horses day and night, and almost all of them are local actors.

And Yu Shi is the only one from other provinces, but he is also the one who resolutely does not use a stand-in in the equestrian scene among all the actors.

Nothing else, my brother just has strength.

Some people may want to say that riding a horse can be completely replaced by technology, is it necessary to say that it is so serious?

This has to mention some negative examples.

Horseback riding is easy to say, and anyone can hold on for a few minutes as long as they don't move around.

But in order to show that you can ride, or even say that the ancients are familiar with it, you must learn this skill thoroughly in private, so as to provide the camera with the most realistic horseback riding.

But how can big stars and big traffic have time to serve the audience?

So the crew showed their talents and came up with countless ways to solve the problem of horseback riding.

For example, if there is a borrowed seat-

Wooden box, motorcycle, ladder, man......

In short, no matter what you take, you will ride, your eyes are locked on the front like a torch, and you will hold the reins with one hand, and swing your hand movements regularly.

And this kind of borrowing makes the photographer suffer, so he can only lock the scene on the upper body of the actor, and there can be no deviation.

The solo is fine, but there are some scenes of men and women riding horses......

I knew that I was riding a horse, and if I didn't know, I thought I was driving.

If the conditions are better, go to technology.

Actors can't ride horses, so they can only waste investors' money and spend huge sums of money to buy fake horse props, ranging from 3,000 a day to tens of thousands of yuan according to the degree of refinement, which is more expensive than real horses.

At this time, the actors can finally shoot the lower half of their bodies, but they still can't shoot panoramas.

After all, horses don't have a lower body.

In the end, it intensified, and even some shoddy crews even saved cardboard boxes, and directly let the actors stand and fiddle with their hands, and the photographers could find the angle by themselves.

I knew that I was riding a horse, but I didn't know and thought that the psychiatric department of which hospital had escaped en masse.

But can horseback riding really be like that?

Is it just a regular swing of the body?

Obviously, no, the horse is also alive, and each of his movements is logical, and the rider's technical content is to deal with the different movements of the horse, which shows the rider's demeanor.

Why are costume dramas and period dramas good-looking?

They must be in the best spirits at all times in order to have the basic physical strength to cope with horseback riding.

You look at the actors who actually ride horses.

They don't need the director to talk about the play, they will take the initiative to show their best mental state, ride a horse, and the whole person will become more energetic and powerful.

Instead of carrying your crotch to deceive yourself.

Some things won't just won't, you can't "pretend" to come out.

Let's go back to Yu Shi's horse ride.

Regardless of the intuitive shock brought by the panoramic lens, if you really know how to ride a horse, you can see the wind whistling in your ears, you can feel the surging mental power of the actors, and you can even feel the vibration of the horse's hooves on the ground.

TV only accounts for two of the five senses, and only by respecting the audience and filming the most authentic side can the feelings be maximized.

It's a pity that those borrowers will never understand.

can't even ride a horse, and shamelessly performs a large number of ancient puppet dramas and period dramas.

What's the difference between this and a blind man playing a marksman?

epilogue

When "Fengshen" was suspended, he was neither humble nor arrogant, learning and evolving in a corner that no one could see, and after "Fengshen" became popular, he was not arrogant or impatient, and went to northern Xinjiang to experience life for a micro-series.

It is precisely in this way that Yu Shi can be the current Yu Shi.

There is a reason why Yu Shi became popular, not only the popularity brought by "Fengshen", but also the audience's recognition of hard-power actors.

Don't let the bad money drive out the good money.

Only truly dedicated actors deserve to be liked by the audience.
