The next day, early in the morning, we were on the mountain city light rail.
Huang Bo covered his chest and almost vomited.
“Damn it, is this going to work? I’ve already drank three or four cans, and my stomach will explode if I drink more.”
Brother Bo complained.
What is being filmed now is the scene where the trio of Dao brothers attempt to use the Coke scam to extract money on the light rail.
"I said all the words wrong, blame me!" Ning Hao also complained.
“Let’s do it again.”
“I can’t stand it, this Coke is so angry.” Huang Bo wanted to slow down.
“You are stupid, just give Coke a try!” Zhang Yuan shook his head.
“Besides, just take a can and pour out the Coke and replace it with plain water.”
Zhang Yuan picked up a can, opened it and drank it, which was quite enjoyable.
Ning Hao:...
Huang Bo:...
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I drank so much." Huang Bo was furious. Pushed him.
“Who told you not to use your brain when filming?”
Zhang Yuan complained, and the two of them looked at each other, not daring to refute.
It’s not because of his status as an investor.
The two of them knew that Zhang Yuan had no temper, as long as it did not affect his interests.
The reason why they did not refute was because Zhang Yuanzhen had a way of dealing with the problem.
And it’s not just about throwing money at it.
The shooting task yesterday morning was the final shot of the entire film.
Heipi, played by Huang Bo, finally escaped after being trapped in a manhole for several days. While he was dirty, smelly and black, he smashed the glass display case of the bakery and stole the bread inside.
Then the fat boss riding a small pedal caught up to the viaduct.
Ning Hao is interested in the Rongqiao Interchange on the mountain side.
Because this overpass has a 720° super loop, the photos are both beautiful and local.
But your little crew wants to close the road for filming?
Who gave you the courage!
Who cares about you?
Later, Zhang Yuan answered the phone and had a few words with the local traffic control department.
His rhetoric was simple.
"We are Andy Lau's crew. We want to shoot at an overpass. One hour is enough."
When people heard it was Andy Lau, they thought that Hua Ge's film must be a blockbuster.
The road only needed to be closed for an hour, so the crew was given a time period from five to six in the morning.
It was only then that the sky began to rise.
According to the professional terminology used in film and television shooting, this is called "density".
Generally speaking, photographers will say "it's getting denser".
Generally refers to the two periods of sunrise and sunset.
These two points in time are called the "Golden Hour" and the "Blues Hour" in Hollywood.
The light at these two times is the softest, and the shots produced have the best atmosphere, and it is easy to produce artistic-level shots with a hazy feeling.
In the final analysis, movies, photography, and even game graphics are actually the art of light.
Several police motorcycles blocked both ends of the overpass, and Ning Hao quickly started filming.
Huang Bo was covered in black mud, his face was beyond recognition, and he ran wildly on the elevated road.
The policemen on both sides stood on tiptoe, watching and muttering.
“This makeup technique is amazing.”
“Liu Dehua on TV looks so handsome, but after putting on makeup, he doesn’t even look human anymore…”
They heard Zhang Yuan say that it was Liu Dehua's crew because it was Brother Hua who was filming.
Actually, let alone makeup, even without makeup, Huang Bo often doesn’t look human... This is what Brother Liu Hua said.
Anyway, Zhang Yuan is not lying. This is indeed Liu Dehua's crew. After all, he is an investor.
In the end, the traffic police were so depressed that several older brothers who came excitedly with cameras and wanted to take photos were almost scolded.
Zhang Yuan was more witty, and one of them gave them a set of Baleno fashions, and then things calmed down.
It's free of charge for sponsors.
So Ning Hao and Huang Bo were convinced by his open-mouthed and evasive words.
Besides, although he is an investor, he never gets special treatment on the crew.
That’s why the crew members convinced him.
For example, the scene where he finally escaped from the ventilation duct and stood opposite Huang Bo, who had just left the manhole.
Huang Bo was covered in stinky mud, and he was also covered in black and gray, and his clothes were in tatters. They were treated without any distinction.
Neither of them relied on makeup artists to create their worn and dirty looks.
Huang Bo smeared mud on his body as usual, while Zhang Yuan found an old stove from an abandoned factory and smeared a lot of old coal ash on his body.
And this scene is different from the previous phone calls in the manhole.
Huang Bode really climbed out of the sewer.
It turned out to be too smelly and stuffy inside.
There is methane in many sewers. Huang Bo felt dizzy while waiting for the filming to start, and gradually, his whole body lost strength.
Zhang Yuan reacted quickly and scooped him up.
Otherwise, if you really fall, even if you don’t fall to death, you will still have enough to eat.
Brother Bo was naturally grateful. After coming up, he lay flat on the road and rested for a long time.
To say that Huang Bo is also very powerful, as Liu Hua, who plays Brother Dao, said, this guy will succeed one thousand percent.
I was just stunned by the smoke. I gritted my teeth and rested for about ten minutes. Then I climbed down again and finished the shot while holding my breath.
With such a group of professionals who are dedicated to creating, there is no reason why this film should not be successful.
“Are you sure you’re going to do it yourself?” A day or two later, on the roof of the New York New York Building in Jiefangbei.
This tall building was 228 meters tall and was the tallest commercial building in the entire mountain city at that time.
Ning Hao looked at Zhang Yuan with a shocked face.
“I mean I will do the window shot myself.”
“Of course the person going downstairs must use a professional stand-in. I’m not a lunatic.” Zhang Yuan cursed.
This scene is the most dangerous scene in the whole film.
The content is that the international thief Mike rappelled from the roof of a high-rise building and entered the office of Director Feng played by Xu Zheng through the window.
"That's dangerous enough. The office is on the 19th floor." Ning Hao pondered.
"Stop talking nonsense, I will save time by shooting it myself, and the camera will be able to catch it, otherwise I will have to go back and forth again."
After that, he asked the prop man to tie a safety rope, and then climbed out of the window using both hands and feet.
"Cuna, you're so tall..." Xu Zheng, who was supporting the role, stuck his bald head out of the window and looked at it, then gave a thumbs up: "Awesome, awesome..."
Teacher Xu said to himself that he dared to go to such a dangerous place by himself. No wonder it only took a few years for this kid to go from being ignored to becoming famous.
You wouldn't even dare to come if it were you.
He felt admiration for this junior for the first time.
In fact, this kind of high-altitude play is really dangerous.
Originally, yesterday I planned to film the rappelling scene from the roof of a high-rise building.
Xiangjiang martial arts director Luo Lixian personally led the team and found a professional stand-in.
At first, the crew planned to borrow the window cleaning machine in the office building to lower the people to a stable position before starting filming.
Because when designing such skyscrapers, most of them will reserve metal tracks for window cleaning machines on the roof. Window cleaning machines are divided into two types: Spider window cleaning machine and hanging basket machine.
This building happens to use the same crane used to hang Spider-Man, which is perfect for filming.
But the building management said that the air has been good recently, and the glass had just been cleaned a few months ago. This machine requires a professional company to operate it, so it cannot be used.
Ning Hao was holding this in and felt uncomfortable all over.
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been with Zhang Yuan for a long time, or if it’s just his nature.
This old boy suddenly slammed the table while eating in the evening.
“Gan!”
“I went to the public restroom at night to scoop up some gold juice and poured it on their glass from the roof.”
"Then they will have to find someone to clean the glass."
"Then we can borrow someone else's window cleaning machine for filming."
With this wicked idea, Zhang Yuan was They were all startled and scolded immediately.
“Shut up!”
“We are eating, is it appropriate for you to talk about public toilets?”
"And how can this be done!"
When everyone saw Zhang Yuan's words, they felt that he had a sense of justice.
"What you did is so obvious that people can guess it at once. Besides, there are surveillance cameras on the rooftop of the building. I have seen it a long time ago!"
Everyone:...< br>
Co-author, you don’t think this idea is bad, you think it’s not feasible, right?
"Yuan, why are you studying the camera on the roof of the building?" Huang Bo caught the key point of his words: "You don't have the same idea as Haozi."
"You two are really a perfect match. ."
"How can you be so slanderous?" Zhang Yuan waved his arm.
He doesn't have Ning Hao's evil thoughts, but he is a little sensitive to cameras after acquiring too many attributes of the yellow lame group.
Every time I go to a place, I can’t help but tap all the monitoring locations...
In the end, Ning Hao was stopped. When a person has no money, he can think of all kinds of evil ways.
Later, when filming this scene, the hanging rope was still knotted. Coupled with the strong wind that blew between the buildings from time to time, the stunt actors were thrown around dozens of meters high, which was very dangerous.
After Zhang Yuan saw this, he even admired the Hollywood actors like Tom Cruise who were obviously the eldest brother but still performed dangerous scenes themselves.
They really work hard.
Zhang Yuan is not envious at all when people like him and Jackie Chan make so much money.
At this end, when the camera opened, Zhang Yuan turned over and walked directly into the house, then took off his hood and came to the safe.
The purpose of his character is to steal gems and give them to the boss who hired him.
After all, he is very professional and dedicated.
But what he didn’t know was that the so-called boss was Xu Zheng.
And Xu Zheng just shot the secretary played by Wang Xun to death with a crossbow because he was threatening him with his four eyes.
Now that the camera was clear, he lay down in front of the safe, took out the stethoscope and hung it on his ear, while placing the other end above the lock ring of the safe.
"Holy crap, I thought the movies were all shot in vain, but it turns out it really works!"
Zhang Yuan slowly and slightly turned the locking ring with his fingers.
When moved to the correct position, the mechanical "click" sound in the stethoscope will appear slightly strange.
Coupled with his inheritance from the Huang Laizi sect, Zhang Yuan is confident that he can unlock this mechanical safe worth several thousand yuan in ten minutes.
"Hey!"
He lay on the ground and opened the box, and teacher Xu Zheng behind him was pointing a crossbow at him.
According to the script, after he shouted, Zhang Yuan should quickly stand up and confront him.
But after Teacher Xu shouted, Zhang Yuan showed no response.
Teacher Xu is a little confused. Isn’t that what it says in the book?
After all, he was an old actor, so he responded immediately, picked up the disposable paper cup at hand and threw it at him.
“Oh!” Zhang Yuan trembled all over and stood up.
"Stop...hahahaha!" Ning Hao smiled and waved.
“Okay, great.”
“Especially when Zhang Yuan showed his freedom just now and didn’t get up when he called someone for the first time, this behavior was very joyful.”
"Teacher Xu Zheng's response is also very good. Our group is indeed a master."
Zhang Yuan scratched his head a little embarrassed.
He really didn’t hear it.
My hands are itchy and I am fascinated by opening boxes.
Just now, the sense of accomplishment and desire to open the safe was far higher than filming this scene.
The souls of Huang Laizi's lineage were burning in his body.
Zhang Yuan patted his arm: "Why can't I control my hands!"
The next scene was a duel between Zhang Yuan and Xu Zheng.
One person shoots a pen and the other throws a throwing knife.
In the end, one died and the other was injured.
Ning Hao originally wanted to save money and asked the prop man to make a set of equipment similar to a fishing rod and hanging line, and planned to fly in front of the camera with a prop knife and pen.
It feels a bit like shooting a special photo shoot.
I tried it several times, but the results were very poor.
In the end, we had no choice but to use special effects.
“I happen to have a friend who knows how to do this.” Zhang Yuan said as he took a picture of Ning Hao’s shoulder.
"Special effects person?"
"Yes."
He immediately called Huang Weimin, who was still filming in Hengdian.
In addition to being the director, he was also the special effects director of "New Liaozhai".
"Okay, just one or two shots, only about ten seconds. If you don't have high requirements for the picture, it will probably cost several thousand yuan per second." Although Huang Weimin doesn't have time to do it, he knows many friends.
"So, this is the only computer special effect in the entire film, which would have cost tens of thousands."
Ning Hao felt sick listening to it.
Not to mention Ning Hao, Zhang Yuan also thought the price was amazing.
No wonder that "The Legend of Shushan", which had more than 4,000 special effects shots, almost went bankrupt by Xiang Huaqiang.
But at the same time, it also opened up a new way of thinking about money laundering for him.
This led to the later "Legend of the Gods".
After all, no one knows how much special effects cost, so it’s very convenient to do accounting.
"Okay, I will ask the director to contact you and you can help me."
"Okay, we are all our own people." Director Huang agreed kindly.
"By the way, the first three episodes of "Baby Girl's Good Mother" are almost done. You said before that you would help find sales..." Huang Daoshun asked.
In fact, he was quite anxious. After all, even if Zhang Yuan gave the company operating expenses, if no one bought the animation, it would not be a long-term solution.
"Well, when you finish it, you can send it to me. I will contact the TV station after I finish working on this crew."
Ning Hao and Xu Zheng were listening and talking to each other. Take a look.
Is he so busy?
Want to go to a TV station to sell cartoons?
In fact, they don't know.
Zhang Yuan went to the TV station to sell cartoons just by the way. More importantly, he had to work with SMG’s boss Li... (End of this chapter)
