"Lu Jia, Lu Jia!" Lu Xin wiped the sweat from his forehead, held his knees and gasped, and had to continue running.

"Don't run, stay with you, I have to clean you up!"

Lu Xin was so angry that he vowed not to always run to the real room, but to strengthen his physical exercise.

Lu Xin, who has spent her second year of college at USTC, has never had anyone worry about her studies.

The applied chemistry major not only received the attention of the teacher in every course, but also joined a professor's practical room in the second year of university and became a glorious "scientific research dog"

。

Of course, Lu Xin, who has just completed his sophomore year, belongs to the lowest class even among the scientific research dogs.

However, under her strong learning ability, she is already a new star in the small real room.

It's just that under the heavy academic pressure, Lu Xin really has no time to do other leisure activities in addition to the winter and summer vacations in the past two years, let alone exercise.

So much so that just in this new "city"

After less than half an hour of shopping, she was already sweating profusely with backache and leg pain.

However, on the other hand, Lu Jia, who just graduated from the first grade of primary school this year, under the guidance of the all-round development education ideology advocated by the Xinke Affiliated Primary School, his body is really better than Lu Xin, and he doesn't know where to go.

In the 80s, the new primary school had a large indoor swimming pool with a rubber track and a ball fitness center, which were luxurious in China, and unlike most primary schools, where physical education and music classes could be taken up at will, these courses were greatly strengthened in the new primary school.

Of course, the high tuition fees of the new branch are a big burden for the families of non-new employees.

But because of this, the family conditions that can enter the primary school attached to the new branch are not bad.

Compared with ordinary homeschoolers who study hard for the future, they have more "unemployment"

of the capital.

Lu Jia, who has just entered the first grade of primary school, can run fast against the July sun with the energy he has exercised from school.

If Lu Xin is not careful, she may lose her shadow.

Listening to Lu Jiayin's bell-like laughter flying around, he turned around and teased Lu Xin like a cat for a while, jumping to her feet and shouting to her: "Sister is coming, come and chase me!"

After speaking, you can spread your feet and disappear.

The bluestone paved streets are surrounded by quaint streets and palace complexes.

Occasionally, there are people who have nothing to do in the open shop, but there are a few people on the huge city road.

In the summer vacation of July 1987, Dingzhou Sanguo Film and Television City, which was only half-completed, was about as famous as none in China.

What's more, in the 80s, the enthusiasm of Chinese people for tourism has not yet been developed, at most they are just walking around their hometown.

Although Dingzhou is not far from Didu, the traffic is not as convenient as in the future, and the flow of tourists is still under development.

As for the operators of the film and television city, it seems that they are not in much hurry to develop the market.

The construction is tight, but the advertising is a little stingy.

Of course, if you take the Romance of the Three Kingdoms commercials that are being filmed, this investment can be regarded as a big investment.

"You little grinder, you can't stop for a while!"

When she was caught, Lu Xin finally caught Lu Jia, who ran crazy, and dragged her into her arms, no matter how she struggled, she would never let go.

"Sister, okay, I'm not going to run. ”

Lu Jia jumped to his feet, finally tired of struggling, pouted and compromised helplessly: "Shall we go to find Brother Hu?" Don't worry, I won't run, I want to." ”

"Okay, let's go. ”

Lu Xin exhaled and said angrily: "You two-faced, in your brother Hu, you have always pretended to be a little lady!"

Lu Xin's differential treatment of his sister seemed a little resentful.

The Three Kingdoms Film and Television City in Dingzhou was built directly on the outskirts of the city, but the main body here is not all of the film and television city.

Near the forest farm in northern Dingzhou, a larger area of land was carved out for location shooting.

Compared with the main body of the film and television city, there is nothing on location outside the city.

It is nothing more than a dilapidated village along a river in ancient times, and then there is an endless wilderness and forest.

However, the investment in this location is not inferior to the palaces and urban buildings in the film and television city.

"The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand. The year is in Jiazi, and the world is lucky!"

In a huge playground, thousands of peasants dressed in ancient costumes carried torches.

In the fierce wind, he stood on a makeshift earthen platform and raised his hands high.

At the same time, the peasants below also let out a roar.

"Director Wang, I think it's already very good!"

Hu Wenhai was on the antique tower built, sitting on a pony and holding a telescope, and some enthusiastic group performers were practicing.

"No, no, it's still far away!"

Wang Fulin held a loudspeaker in his hand, squatting in front of the director's small TV, still frowning deeply: "Compared with the requirements for the storyboard scenes you gave me, Mr. Hu, the level of these people is too outrageous!"

As he spoke, Wang Fulin picked up the loudspeaker in his hand.

Turn on the switch, stand up and feed twice, then start yelling at the crowd below.

"Didn't you guys eat? I just ate the braised pork at noon, shout two slogans and deal with me like this?"

"Those torch-raising group performers at the bottom, do you know that the camera was over your head just now? Really shooting, it's thousands of dollars a second! Cheer me up!"

"The Yellow Turban Army is powerless to raise a torch like you, what kind of rebellion does Zhang Jiao make, if Zhang Jiao simply finds a crooked neck tree and hangs him!"

"Do it all over again!"

With Wang Fulin's order, the whole scene had to start again.

On top of the crane with a boom more than ten meters long, the erected camera returned to its intended position.

If you want to say that whether it is a domestic movie or a TV series, group performance is really a big problem.

Except for a few national Liberation War and Anti-Japanese War films that can be filmed by the army, from the end of the 80s onwards, it seems that the kind of passerby actors in "Little Soldier Zhang Ga" can no longer be found.

To put it bluntly, it is Stephen Chow's kind of "Although I am a dead runner, I am still an actor" in The King of Comedy

The pursuit.

The group performers do not regard themselves as actors with pursuits, but as a human flesh set for 200 yuan a day.

The culmination of this atmosphere is undoubtedly the big bad movie "Bright Sword".

In his previous life, Hu Wenhai was a fan of Du Liang, and he knew Liangjian's novels many times before and after, but because of Liangjian's group performance, the TV series was stunned for one episode.

The group of wooden piles is like a dead trick, and it is embarrassing that the cancer has attacked.

In the 1992 version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the problem was not so big.

But listlessness and monotony have been showing signs of this since then.

But this is not Wang Fulin's problem, as the best TV drama director in China, whether it is the protagonist or the supporting role or the group performance in Dream of Red Mansions, he has been trained quite well.

However, the number of group performances required for the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is not the same as that of Dream of Red Mansions.

Fortunately, with Hu Wenhai, a big financier, the filming of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is quite abundant.

The salary of the group performance alone is ten yuan a day, and it is even more important to take care of a lunch.

Such a high salary is really an unbelievably good job for the surrounding farmers who have lost their land due to land acquisition in the film and television city.

But at the same time, Wang Fulin, as a director, has the support of Hu Wenhai, and his vision has unconsciously increased.

I thought I could bear a little flaw, but now I can ask for it again.

Without him, I don't panic when I have money in my hand.

After I don't know how many reshoots it is, I finally got the effect that Wang Fulin wanted to achieve.

It is also said that there is a big sun in the sky that can dry people, on the ground is a group performance wearing long-sleeved costumes and holding torches, and next to it is a director drinking cold Coke and blowing a fan against the roof of the tower.

After two hours of exposure, everyone will have passion at once, and it is very real - just express your hatred for the director.

Wang Fulin held a loudspeaker and shouted, "It's over!"

, the group performers below suddenly turned into birds and beasts and hid under the shade of the trees next to them.

However, after half an hour, the group performers had to be reluctantly kicked out.

With old farming tools in hand, and some of them were able to distribute some weapons that were tattered on the surface, they scurried towards the next scene facing the river.

Hu Wenhai, who is very familiar with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms TV series, suddenly brightened his eyes, knowing that this was the battlefield scene that was going to be filmed to save Dong Zhuo in the first episode of Liu Guanzhang.

To be honest, when Hu Wenhai was the first time to wait, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this martial arts scene.

However, if you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, you are afraid of comparing goods, and when he is Gladiator", "Spartacus", and even "The Lord of the Rings", he feels a little regretful when he turns back and acts again.

Not to mention the scene scheduling, the basic skills of color language and lens language are still a little less interesting when they go back and re-interpret.

There is no way to do this, Belin can be regarded as the first brother of a TV series director in China, but counting back, his works are only two or three.

As for a war film with a large-scale theme like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is the first time that a big girl has been on a sedan chair.

Being able to shoot the historical 1992 version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was almost a miracle for the Chinese TV drama industry at that time.

The 1992 version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is admittedly a classic, but it is still too far from perfect.

In terms of literature and drama, Wang Fulin's ability is naturally undoubted, but in martial arts, he lacks a lot.

"Thanks to Mr. Hu's support, I plan to shoot the first episode of the script where Liu Guanzhang rescues Dong Zhuo. ”

Wang Fulin took the crew down from the tower, and said with great interest as he walked: "It turns out that I only plan to shoot this battlefield scene for three or five minutes, just explain it briefly." However, since Mr. Hu has no objection, I plan to compress the first half of the first episode, and the second half of the first episode and the second episode will focus on this battle scene. ”

Hu Wenhai's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly agreed: "Yes, Director Wang's thoughts are the same as mine." The story structure of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms can be said to be perfect after hundreds of thousands of years of interpretation, and the feelings and episodes contained in it are very rich. But on the other hand, it's hard to have anything brilliant in the plot, because everyone is already familiar with it. If you want to catch people from the beginning, it's a good idea to use a fierce martial arts show!"

Wang Fulin said with a smile: "I have this confidence, mainly because it was brought by Mr. Hu." To be honest, I really didn't know how to shoot war scenes before! If it was the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, I would still be able to find a few veteran directors in China to give guidance. But after all, this is an ancient war, how to shoot it, I really can't find a few experienced people in China. ”

Hu Wenhai nodded silently, the level of domestic filming of modern wars will definitely not be worse than the level of the United States or the Soviet Union.

The scene scheduling and actor level, the rendering of props and atmosphere, the dubbing and the use of shots, and various film technologies are definitely not lost to American blockbusters.

According to Hu Wenhai's evaluation, the gap between the two movies of Saving Private Ryan and the Battle of Pingjin is only the gap in the clarity of the camera.

But if you want to talk about the filming experience of ancient wars, the domestic political environment in the first thirty years simply did not have the soil for the survival of such war movies.

Wang Fulin, a novice, has a bit of a big gap with the world's ancient war movies and TV series.

"Researcher Wang!"

Wang Fulin and the crew arrived at the filming site by the river, but there were already people waiting here at this time.

"Director Wang just calls me Wang Zhaochun, we are all our own family, what is polite. Besides, I'm not doing research anymore, I've already retired. ”

Dressed in a plain old military uniform and carrying a pair of toad glasses, Wang Zhaochun is no different from an ordinary researcher.

However, his existence is one of the confidence of Wang Fulin to dare to shoot the big scene of the ancient war.

Speaking of which, it is really a little unclear what expression to use to describe Wang Zhaochun, the ancient war consultant invited by Hu Wenhai, is one of the top ancient military technology experts in China.

However, before this status, he also had a formal career - a nuclear physics expert at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Before his retirement, Wang Zhaochun was a researcher engaged in nuclear physics research at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and only after his retirement did he pick up the hobby of ancient military technology.

However, perhaps it is this hobby and spirit of study that has made him a top expert in ancient weapons technology in China.

Since 1974, he has published five or six monographs on ancient military technology, and has become a dark horse and a leader in this field.

Before Wang Fulin started filming the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he especially learned the common sense of ancient warfare from him for a month, which can be regarded as having a basic understanding of ancient warfare, so as not to imagine ancient warfare as a group fight.

In fact, whether it is an ancient war or a modern war, the reason why Hu Wenhai feels that the martial arts drama of the Three Kingdoms is a little worse, to put it bluntly, it is bad""

above.

Not all big scenes are good, and not all big investments can be called visual feasts.

The key to good martial arts is to have logic and let the audience.

A battlefield without co-ordination is just a large-scale group fight.

While the audience is enjoying the big scene, there must be a kind of "fighting"

's IQ superiority, this is a good war plot.

On the other hand, in the historical Romance of the Three Kingdoms TV series, there are many battlefield scenes, which always make the audience feel like they are inexplicably winning and losing.

Of course, this is not only a matter of concept, but also because the historical Romance of the Three Kingdoms crew is still too poor.

After all, martial arts dramas are much more difficult than literary dramas.

Just the investment in props, if you think about it carefully, the picture is still the same picture, and the cost increase dozens of times can't fill this hole.

Finally, with Hu Wenhai's support this time, I don't have to think so much about props.

And how to design the details, this work will be the ability of spring.

"Then you're welcome, I'll call you Wang Laode!"

Wang Fulin smiled and shook hands with Wang Zhaochun.

Turning around, Wang Fulin walked towards the person behind Wang Zhaochun, and opened his mouth without taking two steps before he opened his mouth and said, "How many wows are you!"

"Empty you wow!"

The one standing behind Wang Zhaochun turned out to be a Japanese, bowed his head to Wang Fulin, and naturally there was an interpreter next to him to help the two of them translate.

"What is Mr. Kadokawa's opinion on our shooting?"

Wang Fulin shook hands with the Japanese Haruki Kadokawa and asked cautiously.

"Your officers and soldiers are very good, I think they can fully meet your shooting requirements!"

Haruki Kadokawa gave a thumbs up, first praised it, and then took out a stack of manuscript paper in his hand: "Director Wang's sub-shot me, this is my opinion, you can refer to it." Also, I'm very interested in your unmanned cameras, I wonder if I can sell them to Japan?"

"Oh, this Mr. Kadokawa is going to ask us Mr. Hu. I'll give you your storyboard opinion first, and we'll talk later. ”

Wang Fulin took the manuscript paper in Kadokawa's hand, and on it were pages of delicately drawn sub-shots.

Needless to say, this is the masterpiece of an animated film painter that Hu Wenhai found from the Modu Art Factory.

Next to these storyboards, there are lines of Japanese.

Below the Japanese is the Chinese that the translation has long been added.

Haruki Kadokawa's opinions on these sub-shots can be said to be clear at a glance.

"Oh, Mr. Hu, I'm so interested in your unmanned camera, I wonder if I can sell this product to the Japanese market?"

Haruki Kadokawa walked over to Hu Wenhai and asked a little urgently.

The so-called unmanned camera is actually a drone with a movie camera.

In order to support the filming of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Hu Wenhai personally completed a rough PID flight control core.

With it, after half a year, the Academy of New Sciences finally came up with a ********** that could be used.

With ********** excellent stability, combined with a movie camera and signal transmission equipment, it is no problem to make an unmanned camera for shooting movies in the air.

Hu Wenhai patted his chest and said generously: "No problem, Mr. Kadokawa doesn't need to be in a hurry, as long as this TV series can be completed smoothly." You don't have to pay for it, I'll give you ten unmanned cameras. ”

"That's great! But I'm still hoping to buy this kind of equipment in the Japanese market, can we Kadokawa Group represent it in the Japanese market?"

"Well, I don't think there's a problem. ”

Hu Wenhai nodded with a smile: "After all, we have already had a good start, and continuing to cooperate is a beneficial choice for both of us." ”

"Mr. Hu is so generous!"

Haruki Kadokawa couldn't help but smile when he heard the words.

Haruki Kadokawa can guess his identity from his name, and that's right, he is the president of the famous Kadokawa Publishing House.

Since becoming the youngest president of Kadokawa Press at the age of 33, he has made Kadokawa Press a thriving development.

In the mid-seventies, he went deep into the field of video publishing.

However, as the president of Kadokawa Publishing House, Haruki Kadokawa's daimyo is known as a director.

Hu Wenhai was not impressed by most of his films, but there was only one "Heaven and Earth", which was suddenly shocked later.

Not to mention where the high-headed horses came from in Japan's Warring States Period, but in the last scene of the movie Heaven and Earth, Takeda Shingen vs. Uesugi Kenshin's Kawanakajima battle, the war scene is definitely a classic that is not lost to Akira Kurosawa.

With this movie alone, the name occupies a place in Hu Wenhai's mind.

When the Romance of the Three Kingdoms faced the problem of battlefield scenes, the first thing he thought of was Haruki Kadokawa.

After handing over the Japanese distribution rights of all his works to Kadokawa Publishing House for publication, he finally agreed to participate in the filming of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in exchange for Haruki Kadokawa - let's Mr. Hu, the fake is also a well-known American best-selling author.

Although after the Scholar Press published a book with the nickname Song of Killing and, many readers mailed transoceanic blades to the open mailbox of ST because they announced that they would no longer write books.

But of course, Haruki Kadokawa's identity is the same as Wang Zhaochun, and he is a consultant to the crew.

As for whether or not they adopt it, it is up to Lin to make a personal choice.

In this regard, Hu Wenhai will still fully support Wang Fulin's directing decision.

"Brother Hu!"

After Hu Wenhai finished dealing with Haruki Kadokawa's request, Lu Jia's voice suddenly came from behind him.

As soon as he turned around, he was suddenly bumped into his arms by this little girl.

"Brother Hu, shall I come to film?"

Saying that, she also made a helpless expression, sighed and said, "Hey, my sister is a big lazy worm, this is all to take care of her, there is really no way." ”

Hu Wenhai was amused by her cute appearance, and nodded again and again: "No problem, Brother Hu will play with you, let your sister rest first." ”

Behind Lu Jia, Lu Xin really showed a helpless expression.

"Mr. Hu. ”

Secretary Qin Kai jumped down from the car that sent Lu Jia and Lu Xin over, walked to Hu Wenhai's ear, and whispered: "Secretary Huang from the imperial capital called over, and the Iraqi 7 billion project is about to be completed. ”
