Chapter 175, the prop company that is about to collapse
In the following half month, the Huaxia Wushu Association suddenly made a series of actions that were quite contrary to their usual behavior;
First, an online selection activity of "Star of Chinese Martial Arts" was launched, and then an invitation letter was issued, inviting all members of major martial arts halls and martial arts enthusiasts to shoot a 1-minute video of a real fight drill in a semi-forced tone, and send it to the newly built website for audition;
And it is specifically stated that anyone who has been trained or registered in the corresponding institution must participate in this activity, and the uploaded materials must not be "passive and slacking", otherwise they will be punished according to the circumstances.
Looking at the official seals of a certain sports bureau and a certain cultural bureau on the invitation letter with a bit of a red-headed document, under the coercion of "qualifications", various martial arts halls and martial arts training institutions in China, including the fan club, had to hurriedly call to gather people, among which there were many members of the "new faction" who were quite resentful - the Chinese martial arts community is divided into many factions, each with quite different ideas, according to the consistent preferences of a certain association, their own emphasis on actual combat does not talk about posture, and with the "tradition" The members of the opposite faction, what are you doing with the spirit, aren't they all accompanying the prince to study?
Unexpectedly, this time an association didn't know what medicine was taken wrongly, and after the audition process for more than half a month, most of the "new faction" members with some strength were actually selected, but those "traditional celebrities" who have always been favored, except for a few people, almost all of them have been brushed down;
This time, the martial arts world in China exploded, and the director and investor of the "Martial Arts Fight Fake" program were ecstatic, could it be that the effect of this show was so good, and it actually entered the field of vision above, so there is such a play?
However, in the eyes of some well-intentioned people, things are not so simple, look at the list of those selected, either the free martial arts members who are closer to the Sanda style, or some new members who are more practical than the actual fight, but after careful observation, the works of the selected members clearly carry the shadow of the eight extremes, Hu Shi poke feet and other genres, the biggest feature of these genres is that they have the effect of effectively defeating the enemy;
What's even more breathing is that this selection actually has a special preference for the two schools of Tongbeiquan and Yang's Taiji, but all the fighting videos uploaded, with the skills or variants of these two schools, are basically selected, you know, many of the methods in these two schools are no longer simple fighting skills, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a killing technique.
No matter how the outside world spread it, Yang Zhu didn't care about it, he just drew and drew the budget in his hand, and added it again and again, so that these martial arts coaches with a real level agreed to teach abroad after a two-pronged approach of money and ideological mobilization;
On the other hand, relying on the debt to himself, he put forward some excessive requirements - the number of martial arts instructors who meet his standards is seriously insufficient, and a group of people need to be "transferred" from the army to replenish;
At the beginning, the top refused to agree, and the top also understood the character of the bastard, knowing that there must be a group of bad things to do behind this kid, if the middle is only involving civilian personnel, then some are easy to say, but once it is detected that there are people from the army involved, the public opinion risk to the country is great;
Yang Zhu was quite unimpressed by this, and said directly to them:
"Aren't the [small circle] organizations that caused a lot of waves in North America decades ago also made up of retired personnel?"
"I don't see any public opinion risk to the country!"
"Besides, don't say that this plan will not be popular, even if there is really a large-scale demon, how many organizations involved in violence around the world have not absorbed retired personnel from various countries?"
"This is a completely unsolvable problem for all countries?"
"As long as you are not on the job, even if this thing breaks through the sky, there will be no problem;"
"And according to the plan on my side, these [retired] personnel will not be allowed to coach until half a year later, plus the initial [silence period], there will be nearly a year in between;"
"As long as you move quickly, arrange personnel [transfer] now, and no one can say anything in between;"
"If you don't feel at ease, I promise you here, these [transfer] personnel are just as hole cards, and they fulfill the obligations of a normal martial arts coach, basically just when people come to make trouble or kick the gym, and usually don't let them take the initiative to attack, this is down, right?"
After hearing his assurance, and knowing that this kid planned to invest 120 billion in the first year and establish at least 6,000 martial arts halls in the world, he was first shocked by this big spend, and then finally was moved by a burst of rhetoric, and promised to coordinate with other departments and try his best to allocate enough manpower to ensure the smooth development of the plan.
And Yang Zhu was greatly relieved after receiving the above promise;
Now that two of the four core elements of the basic disk have been solved, and the other one will not have much of a problem, the rest is to go out and create a breaking point for this project......
..................
Aside from Yang Zhu's side, the little white rabbit is also very busy;
I didn't think much of it when I was just a simple actor before, but now as one of the two "giants" of the crew of "Secrets of the Three Kingdoms", she knows how hair-making it is to prepare a complete film and television project.
"Miss Wan, this is a prop sample sent by the props company, you are an expert in this area, or, pass by?" Zhang Lin was a little unsure, so he had to come to the little white rabbit for help;
According to Yang Zhu's special instructions, in film and television production, we should learn from the United States, although this drama is only a TV series, it must be implemented in strict accordance with the standards of the movie, in his words, it should be given Zhang Lin to exercise basic skills.
Under this kind of requirement, props have become the top priority of this play, even if he finds the top props company, he is still afraid of making mistakes, but this kind of thing obviously does not dare to bother Yang Zhu, so he took a trick and came to Wan Jing for endorsement.
The little white rabbit didn't think about it so much, and went directly to the warehouse where the props and samples were placed.
Looking at the vacated warehouse, the piles of props built according to different uses of more than a dozen small application scenarios, Wan Jing carefully observed.
"The shape of this batch of swords is not good, the [four-edged] swords used in the late Eastern Han Dynasty are all swords, the width of the swords of this batch of props is 1CM smaller, and there is no edge on it!"
"Also, the luster of the sword body is too much, and the ancient sword is not so smooth as a mirror, so the color is a little dull. ”
The little white rabbit drew a sword, looked at it twice, and frowned;
The staff of the props company on the side hurriedly took a small notebook to write it down, and they said at the beginning that what they want is quality, as long as the price is not pitted, everything is easy to say, and this batch of swords costs 800 handles, and after recasting, including the mold opening fee, it is also a small amount of oil and water.
"Why do you only have one type of armor?"
"What about [Black Light], [Bright Light], and [Horse Armor]?"
"You must know that in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, these armors were not only used for battlefield fighting, but also a symbol of status.
When the staff heard this, the corners of their mouths were a little bitter, since the props were formulated according to the movie standards, then they must be real, this [ring lock armor] doesn't look a little ugly, but they spent half a month of hard work, referring to a large number of historical materials, knocked out one by one, in order to look like there is no sense of industry;
However, the [Ring Lock Armor] They can be restored by reverse deduction of the process, but the [Black Light Armor] and [Mingguang Armor], they really can't restore it now—— you know, if you really strictly follow the requirements of the crew, it will not only look similar, but each part must be completely restored, and even the weight must be about the same, so that the actions of the characters will be real, and there will be no armor weighing dozens of catties, but the result is as light as a piece of paper, and there is no [sense of restraint].
Hearing the complaints of the staff of the prop company, Wan Jing thought about it and wrote two phone numbers directly in his small notebook:
"This is the phone call of Professor Zhang of the Department of History of Capital University, his research topic is the history of the Three Kingdoms, and he talked about it last time we cooperated, and he should have a complete process of various armor and horse harness in the Eastern Han Dynasty. ”
The props company's people are happy, the so-called "it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish"; if the other party is really willing to provide a complete process, then it is really a treasure!
............
"The pattern and color of the palace carpet are wrong, at a glance, you can know that it is industrially dyed, and the shape of the dragon pattern embroidered on it is wrong, the Eastern Han Dynasty dragon pattern twisted tail is less than that of the Western Han Dynasty, the ears are drooping, and the eyeballs are also drooping compared with the Western Han Dynasty;"
"You go to [Suhua Zhai], they have recently made palace carpets with pure vegetable dyes, and there will be no problems in terms of color and shape. ”
"Similarly, the clothes of those actors are also this problem, the shape is correct, but the color is wrong, and [Suhuazhai] solved it together. ”
............
"These court lamps and lanterns are not right, the court of the Han Dynasty used gilt cylinder lamps, smokeless ones, the shape is generally people and animals, not a simple candle holder, go back and redo it!"
The staff's face was a little unnatural.
..................
"There are also problems with these houses, and the tiles of the Han Dynasty are all inscribed, and they are generally written in small Zhangyang script with auspicious words such as Changle Weiyang, Changsheng Wuji, and Chang Wu Xiang Forget. ”
The staff was a little frustrated.
..................
"There is nothing wrong with these bell-shaped systems, but there is no instrument base below, go back and make up for it, the Han Dynasty generally used the shape of the auspicious beast to make the seat of a large musical instrument, and it is also very particular about streamlining, you should pay attention to this when the time comes. ”
The staff's face turned a little pale.
............
"There are a lot of problems with court banquets, and when the court of the Han Dynasty generally dined, it was true that lacquerware stilt plates were used, but the edges on the top of the house were gilded;"
"As for the pattern, just use the [Feather Man Four Divine Patterns];"
"Moreover, when the ministers are feasted, there must be a square tripod, and during the small banquet, there will also be a small and medium-sized tripod for the emperor's exclusive use;"
"Fang Ding, you naturally know how to choose, what about the Ding during the Emperor's banquet, you just use that round [Bronze Grid Ding]. ”
The staff's eyes began to drift.
............
"There are also these jade pendants, the color is wrong, don't use pure white, use seeds with skin; dragon-shaped jade pendants should be [point instead of scale], ordinary people's jade pendant knife work should be a little simpler, your lines are too feminine and round. ”
"There is also this jade seal, the color problem is big, re-choose a larger square material, and redo it after the color is turned into leather!"
"And ......"
After two hours, the staff of the props company pinched the small notebook that had already been deformed, and left with a face like earth, looking at Wan Jing's eyes before leaving, clearly like looking at a little monster.
Zhang Lin, who accompanied him throughout the whole process, also wiped the sweat on his forehead, this aunt, let's just shoot a TV series, it's almost over, is your old man planning to turn it into an online naturalist exhibition drama?
Wan Jing saw Zhang Lin's unnaturalness and sighed slightly:
"Director Zhang, I know you're going to think I'm making a fuss,"
"But this drama has invested 200 million, and it is very likely that additional investment will be made in the future,"
"Such a large investment without water is the first case in our Chinese TV drama industry, right?"
Zhang Lin nodded, if you remove the greasy in the middle, and compare the real investment, the investment in this TV series is indeed the most in China at present.
Wan Jing saw him nodding, and then said: "So, the purpose of the BOSS is very clear, that is, it intends to set a benchmark for Huaxia's costume TV series;"
"Let's not talk about whether the audience can accept the plot for the time being,"
"But I know that the boss hopes that at least through our efforts, the audience will become more and more rare in those shoddy and perfunctory costume dramas;"
"I also hope that the audience can at least appreciate the glory of our Chinese civilization through this TV series;"
"So, in this case, whether these props are real or not is far more important than you think;"
"You know, [details make an effect], this sentence is not only applicable to business, but also to TV dramas;"
"In hundreds of minutes, thousands of minutes of pictures, countless meticulously crafted details come together, and after precipitation, the visual impact and aesthetic subtlety brought to the audience are beyond the reach of most movies. ”
"The performance of the actors, even if we work hard, is not an absolutely controllable factor after all,"
"Therefore, for the completely controllable hardware element of props, even if we work hard and let the props company suffer a little, we must not be sloppy. ”
"Just ...... Let's get basic insurance!"
After listening to this, Zhang Lin was a little embarrassed, this is the drama with the largest investment he has received so far, and it is also the biggest assessment he has faced, but as a result, he is a director, and no one else has an actor who cares and thinks carefully.
After the old face was very red for a while, Zhang Lin said seriously: "Miss Wan, I have been taught!"
"If there is anything wrong with me in the future, just bring it up, I will definitely change it!"
Wan Jing looked at Zhang Lin with a serious look, was startled, and hurriedly waved her hand: "Director Zhang, you are serious, are you the director, or do you have the final say!"
Zhang Lin shook his head and put on a grinning face:
"You also know my background, I was born in advertising films;"
"Thanks to Boss Yang, he plans to support me, so I slowly learn to be a director;"
"But I know what level I am now, at most I am a rookie who has just come out of the novice village;"
"In the past, there was Boss Yang teaching and taking it with him, but there was no big mistake;"
"And now, Boss Yang has more important things to do, and he can't take care of this;"
"So, I can only trouble you more!"
"Don't worry, what I just said was really not casual, I really thought so!"
"You are well-informed and thoughtful, Boss Yang is not here, you are the one who speaks;"
"So, if there's anything wrong, just bring it up, don't have any scruples;"
"Anyway......"
"It's all a family!"
The little white rabbit looked at the director who had worked with him once, as if he had a narrow smile, and his expression was a little twisted;
It knows the relationship between Zhang Lin and its own boss;
Mo Fei,
He also saw something coming out?
Thinking of this, the little white rabbit felt a little shy, but he was a little more happy......
