Bao Qijing's finale banquet was not like Yuan Heping's finale banquet, where a bunch of people caught Yuan Heping and poured wine. Bao Qijing is a lesbian after all, and everyone is still relatively gentle in front of her, afraid of falling into the notoriety of bullying lesbians.

Bao Qijing is a relatively quiet person and doesn't particularly like to talk, but today she talks a lot, and she keeps talking to everyone, as if she doesn't finish her words, and she won't have a chance to say it in the future. In fact, she really thinks so, after this farewell, many people in the crew may not have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, and may not even have the opportunity to meet. has lived with the crew for more than four months, and she is really a little reluctant in her heart.

Bao Qijing looked at Xu Wangqiu and said with a smile: "I really thank you for giving me such an opportunity to play the role of Yuemei." This time I was really eye-opening. I always thought that China was particularly backward, and the same was true in movies. I didn't expect to come here this time, only to know that we are so strong in terms of technology, and we have seen a lot of unheard of shooting methods, which is really eye-opening. I'm sure you'll make a lot of amazing movies in the next few years. ”

Xu Wangqiu said confidently: "This is for sure, the export company has the support of national policies, and we can share the account with China Film Company." With the support of the domestic market, we can use the best equipment and the best technicians to make the best movies. In the future, we will build our own film industry, just like Hollywood. ”

Bao Qijing doesn't understand the film industry, but she still knows how powerful Hollywood movies are. If she heard Xu Wangqiu's words a year ago, she would definitely think that she was bragging, but after participating in the filming of "Falcon", she believed that it was possible: "This is a good thing." Hopefully, we'll have a chance to work together in the future, and if there's a suitable role, don't forget about me. ”

Xu Wangqiu nodded with a smile and said, "That's for sure." We are a company, we are all our own people, if we can use our own people, we will definitely use our own people. He suddenly laughed: "I'm afraid that you won't look down on us at that time, because Xiangjiang Film Company and the director will rush to cooperate with you at that time." ”

Bao Qijing naturally didn't believe it: "Don't make fun of me." Our Changfengxin actors have been suppressed in Xiangjiang, and using us means being blocked by Taiwan, the Taiwan market is very important to Xiangjiang Films, and it is the most important market, so no one dares to use ours unless we quit the Left/Pai Film Company and publish a letter of repentance in the newspaper. ”

Xu Wangqiu knew that what Bao Qijing said was the truth, using actors from left/faction companies means being banned by Taiwan, but now the situation is different, now the country has established a film export company, and the export company can share the accounts in China. With the mainland market as its backing, Taiwan is certainly not an opponent: "Taiwan is just a market with a population of 20 million, while we are a huge market with a population of one billion. Last year, we watched 29.8 billion movies in China, and the box office exceeded 1 billion yuan. In the world, it can also be ranked in the top five. In the past, due to the implementation of unified purchase and sales, the film was 700,000 yuan no matter how good or bad, and the film company couldn't make much money. Now the export company can divide the account, take "Hoe Rape" as an example, the final box office should be about 80 million, if the account is divided, the export company can share 28 million. Assuming that "Hoe Rape" is co-produced by Xiangjiang Film Company and us, and the investment is half of one person, then Xiangjiang Company can divide 14 million yuan, which is equivalent to more than 50 million Hong Kong dollars. You are the boss of the film company, will you cry and shout that you want to cooperate with us?

Bao Qijing was stunned by the figures reported by Xu Wangqiu, a movie earns more than 50 million Hong Kong dollars, and the Shaw Brothers may not earn so much money after making a movie for a year, right? A movie can make so much money, then the boss of the Xiangjiang Film Company will really cry and shout to cooperate with us! Could it be that leftist/faction films are really going to rise again, and we people are going to have to work hard? She still can't believe it: "You can't lie to me, right?"

Xu Wangqiu smiled and said, "It's true. If it is not implemented, how dare the company invest more than 5 million yuan to shoot "Falcon", and how can I invite Yuan Heping to be a martial arts instructor at a high price. There are export companies, and it is possible for Xiangjiang Film Company to make a lot of money by cooperating with us, and there is no comparison in the Taiwan market. Just cooperating with us, if you want to make money from the mainland market, there must be conditions, if you are pro-Taiwan, why should we cooperate with you, if you don't use our actors, why should we cooperate with you. You are our leader in the Xiangjiang market, the company will definitely praise you, and those companies that want to cooperate with us will also rush to cooperate with you. It's not just you, Changfeng's new actors are like this, everyone's day is coming!"

Bao Qijing's eyes were a little red when she heard this, although she is known as the leader of the left/faction, she has no influence at all in Xiangjiang and belongs to the third-tier stars. The reason why she can be called the leader of the leftist is not because of how popular she is, but because there is really no one in the entire leftist movie, and the actresses who entered the Great Wall at the same time as her are basically gone.

As a veteran minister who has been on the Great Wall for ten years, Bao Qijing is really full of emotion when she hears that left/faction films are going to rise again, and she said with tears in her eyes: "Over the years, I have always believed that the country will become stronger and stronger, and I believe that left/faction films will rise again." I've finally waited for this day! It's the best news I've heard this year!"

After the finale banquet, Xu Wangqiu returned to the room and lay on the bed to think about the problems of the Xiangjiang market. In the last life, in 1982, Changfeng Xin merged into Yindu Institution, but because the creative concept of Yindu Institution was out of touch with the mainstream of Xiangjiang, it was impossible to make movies that the audience liked to see, and the golden decade of Xiangjiang films had almost nothing to do with Yindu Machine.

In fact, the Yindu institution had a chance to turn over, "Shaolin Temple" caused a sensation at home and abroad, and achieved amazing results, and Jet Li became an instant hit. If Yindu can catch Jet Li, seize "Shaolin Temple", and make it into a series of movies, it is entirely possible to rise strongly, so as to restore the glory of leftist/faction films in Xiangjiang, but unfortunately Yindu has not been able to seize this opportunity.

The reasons for this are very complex, including institutional reasons and unified purchasing and marketing. "Shaolin Temple" has a box office of more than 100 million yuan in China, but only 488 35mm copies have been issued, and Yindu institutions can only get 4.39 million in China, excluding the cost of 2 million, and earned 2.39 million in the mainland market. Leftist films from outside Hong Kong have been suppressed, and it is difficult to get enough income from China, and the Yindu institutions have been in a state of poverty. At the end of the 80s, other film companies in Xiangjiang invested tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars in a film, while the cost of Yindu Films was only 2 million. Yindu could only take the route of small-cost literary films, and finally fell into a vicious circle. If it weren't for the support of the state, the Yindu institution would have gone bankrupt long ago.

Now the situation is completely different, Yindu has become a subsidiary of the export company in Xiangjiang, and the films of Yindu can be directly divided in China. In this life, "Shaolin Temple" is filmed, and even if the box office is 100 million, then the Yindu institution can be divided into 35 million, which is 140 million when converted into Hong Kong dollars.

Backed by the mainland market, Yindu can grow into a giant in the Hong Kong market. Yindu can rely on its strong strength to completely recruit directors such as Xu Ke and Xu Anhua into its banner, and let them become the cadres of leftist films. In the previous life, Xu Ke filmed "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", and in this life, you don't have to wait until 2013, you can shoot it in 1983.

There are too few directors in China who can make commercial films, and it is almost impossible to establish a complete film industry within 20 years by relying on Xu Wangqiu and a few of them. In fact, Hollywood is not only the Hollywood of the United States, but also a good food dock in the world, because the tentacles of its film industry extend to the whole world and adopt the model of global film division of labor. If Chinese films want to achieve industrialization, they must also take this road, and absorb all the outstanding talents in Xiangjiang, such as Bao Qijing, such as Yuan Heping, such as Xu Ke, and let them become a part of the Chinese film industry.

On November 11th, the day of Singles' Day in later generations, the crew of "Falcon" completed the filming in southern Yunnan. Two days later, the "Falcon" crew returned to Peking to carry out the final special effects shooting in the stunt studio of Beijing Film Studio.

There are two main types of stunt shots that need to be shot in a stunt studio, one is stunt photography and the other is keying. The most difficult of these is the shot of the Falcon Squad's bazooka hitting the enemy helicopter and the helicopter falling to the ground and tumbling towards the screen.

It was easier to shoot such shots in later generations, but now it is very difficult and very dangerous to shoot. Because the propeller is still rotating when the plane lands, there is no propeller for this kind of shot in the future, and the propeller is added through computer special effects in the later stage, but now there is no way to add the propeller through the later stage, so it can only be real.

Xu Wangqiu's model airplane has propellers, and the propellers are rotating at high speed. Shooting this shot can be said to be very dangerous, if the propeller hits someone, it will definitely be either death or injury, resulting in a tragic accident.

Fortunately, Xu Wangqiu and they came up with a cableway photography system, which can control the camera through the cableway system in the distance for shooting, otherwise Xu Wangqiu would not dare to shoot this shot at all.

Xu Wangqiu and the others took their first shot shortly after returning to Beiping, but due to the use of infrared masking technology, the results were not particularly good. The principle of infrared matte is the same as that of green screen keying, that is, a screen that can emit infrared rays is arranged in the place where the green screen is arranged, and the picture taken with the infrared matte camera will not show the background, but only show the foreground, and the keying will be completed directly. However, due to the fact that the model explosion and combustion can emit infrared light, it interferes with the infrared mask camera, and as a result, part of the plane and flames are deducted, and it is impossible to use it at all.

In order to achieve the desired effect, the crew decided to switch to blue-screen keying technology. Blue screen keying technology is not a high-tech technology, and several large domestic film studios have basically mastered this technology. In this era, there are many types of keying and compositing techniques, unlike later generations that only had green screens and blue screens. For example, there are three types of keying techniques in Beijing Film Studio, infrared active matte, frontal projection synthesis and blue screen movable matte. It's just that because the blue screen technology is not as convenient and fast as the infrared matte technology, the Beijing Film Studio generally uses the infrared matte technology for keying and synthesis.

A week later, the Falcon crew did a second shoot, but this time it failed again. During the shooting, the model of the airplane rolled crookedly and did not roll towards the camera. The subsequent third shooting also failed, the explosives in the aircraft model exploded in advance, and it did not achieve the effect Xu Wangqiu wanted, so it had to be reshot.

On December 14th, the crew conducted the fourth shooting, and at this time, all other shots of the movie had been filmed. If this shot can pass smoothly, then "Falcon" will be officially completed.

When Xu Wangqiu came to the studio, the crew had already propped up the blue cloth used for filming. It is a huge blue cloth 8 meters high and 16 meters long, which is stretched flat and neat. The blue cloth used for blue screen shooting must be flattened, and there can be no wrinkles, because there are wrinkles, shadows may appear, and if there are shadows, the key will not be clean, leaving black blocks, which will affect the picture effect.
