"Brother Hong, I'm really sorry......"

Two months have passed.

The filming progress of the twenty-five episodes of the TV series is almost coming to an end.

Now is the stage where all the literary dramas are filmed and then some scenes of driving mecha are added.

And at this point, many of Wang Chen's shortcomings are reflected.

The role he wants to play is a middle two disease who is usually expressionless, and he usually looks like a rebellious young man with frowning eyebrows and pretending to be deep.

But the plot is almost at the end, and he has to play the slightly hysterical side of the protagonist.

Just like the general plot, as a villain BOSS, Luo Yun plays the mask man, a normal villain BOSS with lofty ideals, down-to-earth hard work, like-minded followers, and all the way towards his dream.

Then, of course, on the eve of the imminent realization of his dream, he was disturbed by the protagonist jumping out.

And the protagonist often yells.

The part I'm shooting now is the cockpit stuff in a pure green screen studio.

Because in the plot, Wang Chen and Luo Yun are interacting wildly while shooting and slashing at each other while driving mobile suits.

But Wang Chen always can't play this part well.

Zhang Hong handed him a bottle of water and wondered, "What is the specific reason? Do you have a score yourself?"

Wang Chen took the water bottle and thought for a while, and said: "Maybe it's because I don't have much experience, this is a pure green screen studio, and there are cameras in 360 degrees without dead ends, and some of them are almost on my face, so I'm a little nervous, probably ......"

After Brother Hong's "encouragement", at least now Wang Chen is full of confidence in his acting skills.

Zhang Hong looked back at Li Shanqi and gave him a look that could only be understood and could not be spoken.

[Is it that the habit of making small movies in the past has been brought back? How can you shoot the camera in the face of others? It seems that your psychological shadow has really come out.......]

Li Shanqi also gave a helpless look.

[He himself is too vegetable, can he blame me?] The picture quality of the movie, of course, should be a little more textured. And in this way, you can save more money on special effects in the later stage. 】

Zhang Hong raised his eyebrows and ordered: "Everyone rest for ten minutes before shooting." ”

Clapping his hands for everyone to rest, Zhang Hong quietly hid in the corner.

Then he dialed Lin Muqing's phone.

"What's wrong. ”

Over there was Lin Muqing's faint voice.

Zhang Hong asked directly: "That's the case, I just want to ask how much we have in the budget." ”

"Three hundred seventy five million eight hundred seventy five thousand five hundred fifty five. Without the slightest hesitation, Kuro Changzhi reported the exact number.

And so much more?

Zhang Hong asked again: "How much did we spend on the post-production cost of "Cloud Falling Red Dust"?"

Miss Lin pondered for a moment and replied, "Ten episodes, a single episode with a cost of more than 1.2 million. If you talk about post-production and special effects alone, each episode should not exceed ninety, that is, a total of about nine million. ”

"OK, thanks. ”

Hanging up the phone, Zhang Hong began to analyze.

"Clouds Fall into the Red Dust" does not spend much money on the actors, almost equal to nothing.

The crew was lent to him by Director Sun Zheng, and the salary and everything were paid by Director Sun.

The same goes for equipment.

The cost of group performances and eating and sleeping is evenly spread into the cost of each episode.

Renting a venue or something is Lin Chuan's money.

That is to say, a total of 13 million was invested, of which 10 million was spent on post-production and special effects.

"Clouds Falling into Red Dust" is indeed a mythological drama that requires a lot of special effects.

But there are also many Chinese drama parts, and the real need for special effects is less than half of the current "Mobile Suit".

Then it's simple.

The cost of the post-special effects of a single episode of "Clouds and Red Dust" is 900,000.

It's good to double it, and even add a little more to two million.

According to the cost of two million special effects in the later stage of an episode, twenty-five episodes are 50 million!

50 million smashed special effects?

Hey.

That's a terrible amount of money!

Compared with those ordinary TV series, of course, it is outrageous, because I am afraid that at least half of the money in their TV series will go into the pockets of the actors or the companies behind the actors.

The rest of the money is the production cost.

Zhang Hong had read the news in his previous life, a certain TV series that claimed to have invested more than 100 million yuan, just a few leading actors added up to take 70 to 80 percent of the money, and the rest was the production cost, and in the end, the special effects producer only approved 500,000 yuan.

That's a bit of an egg!

However, in his previous life, Zhang Hong, as his own keyboard warrior, also checked the information, and the total investment of "The Wandering Earth" was between 360 million and 400 million, and it was definitely not 400 million anyway.

And that's the total cost of publicity.

Then I now spend 50 million on post-production special effects, and the level of special effects in this world is not bad.

Those TV series and movies with poor special effects are reluctant to pay for them.

You get what you pay for, and if you give less, people will naturally not let the top team do it for you.

It's even more difficult to say, whether the special effects are good or not is purely technical.

And most of the domestic films are still the director and the art director have the final say.

They think that good effects are good effects.

The truly professional special effects need to be scientifically designed according to the color matching and audio-visual language.

Including color grading is actually a science, which requires a professional colorist to adjust according to the director's setting of the plot, rather than the editor doing it by the way.

Now that I, Zhang Hong, am filming a TV series, I will spend 50 million yuan on the post-production and special effects, so what's the problem?

Even he felt that it was less!

There are nearly 370 million left!

I just take 300 million to smash the special effects, so what's the matter!

So Zhang Hong, who came back from the break, waved his hand and made a decision: "Try to shoot the panoramic picture as much as possible! Even if you shoot the cockpit, you have to shoot the upper half of the body! The cockpit behind the character should also shoot me completely! Including the 'universe' outside the cockpit!"

Also, please go to the engineers and bring me the 'Unicorn', 'Big Green Pepper', 'Zagu', and 'Jean' from Shed 1!"

Wang Ye, who was promoted to assistant director, hesitated: "But Brother Hong, is the cost ...... in this case?"

"Don't think about the cost! The crew has money! I don't know how to spend it!" Zhang Hong waved his hand, "Go move! And shoot as I say!"

Joke!

This film doesn't care about how much money it sells!

And it cost 500 million just to build the scene and the like!

And there's more than 360 million! Will you be able to spend me all or what?

You must know that the more than 360 million yuan was put in Zhang Hong's previous life, which is the entire cost of "The Wandering Earth"!

And counting the publicity!

After finishing the order, Zhang Hong patted Wang Chen on the shoulder again and said, "I can't find the feeling, right? It's okay, just stand the 'Red Yousan' opposite you in a while, and then look at it, you will definitely be able to shoot it." ”

Then he clapped his hands again and ordered: "Who is that! Put the 'unicorn' behind Wang Chen's cockpit in a while! Put the 'red yousan' behind Luo Yun!"

Wang Ye nodded and was about to act.

Zhang Hong shouted to him again: "One more thing, remember that no matter whose scene the two of them filmed, they let each other sit in the cockpit opposite each other in costumes, and don't let him take off Luo Yun's mask." ”

Wang Ye continued to nod.

"One more thing. Zhang Hong shouted to him again, "When the time comes, remember to shoot the opponent's drama, let the two of them sit directly in the cockpit face each other and speak to each other, don't just shoot one person, you can shoot with a group on both sides." ”

"Okay, Brother Hong. ”

"One more thing, remember to power up the 'Unicorn' and 'Red Yousan' when the time comes, and the atmosphere must be in place!"

"Uh...... Understood, Brother Hong. ”

"One more thing, remember to raise the cockpit of the two people to the chest of the fuselage, and then everyone worked hard and sat on the ladder to shoot. ”

"Ahh......h

"One more thing. Zhang Hong's expression was serious, "Make me a cup of tea, and bring me the military coat by the way." Who the hell is on the air conditioner! I'm freezing to death!"

Wang Ye: "......"

"Understood, Brother Hong!"

Seeing the handsome back of Zhang Hong wearing a military coat, Wang Chen bit his lip and didn't speak.

Then his eyes became determined.

He knew that he couldn't live up to Brother Hong's trust in his life.

He won't show any loyalty, but he will do his best to make this drama well!

Until...... He sat in the cockpit, fastened his seat belt, and was lifted into the air almost twenty meters in the air.

His face was pale, and everyone was about to cry.

Wang Chen has a secret that he can't tell to the outside world.

That's ...... He has a fear of heights!

............

With both feet on the ground, there is not only Gundam, but also Zhang Hong.

He sat on the pony, looked at Wang Chen's iron-clad face in the monitor, his eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands: "Okay! Sure enough, you can only find the right feeling when you are there! This is what the actor wants now! What are you doing in a daze? Start shooting!"

I, Zhang, am really a director genius!

PS: Daily ticket request 2/2!

Drank a lot of wine and slept. During the day, I tried to get out the two chapters at night, and at night I had to go to another groom's house to blow up balloons and paste happy words.

(Anyway, yesterday the groom's mother saw that I was white and clean during the meal, and said that she wanted to introduce me to someone...) I'll just believe it. ）
