Chapter 222: Post-Production

In a blink of an eye, it was February 23, 2015, the fifth day of the first lunar month, and the Spring Festival stalls at this time had already been white-hot, and "Hero" directed by Zhang Yifan was unbeatable, with a cumulative box office of 760 million.

Many media said that Zhang Yifan's treasure is not old, and the final box office of "Hero" is predicted to be 1.5 billion, and Jiang is still old and spicy.

Now it is also the launch conference of "Death is Coming", and the media who received the invitation letter also came early, the launch conference of "Death is Coming" was held in a five-star hotel in Beijing, and "Death is Coming" will be filmed in Beijing.

On February 23rd, at half past ten in the morning, the launch conference of "Death is Coming", with the introduction of the host one by one, the main actors and directors of the film appeared one by one, and the press conference officially began.

After the moderator, he went to the reporter's question session.

The reporters in the audience raised their hands to ask questions, and the host randomly clicked on Chen Zhi, a reporter from "Shuguang Daily", Chen Zhi stood up very happily and asked Qin Feng: "Hello Director Qin, I am Chen Zhi, a reporter from "Shuguang Daily", what is the production cost of this movie? ”

Qin Feng looked at Chen Zhi and replied with a smile: "The production cost of this movie is not high, the initial budget is 55 million, and it is exclusively invested and produced by Yanhuang Film and Television.

The film is a thriller, a thriller that is different from the horror films of the bloody violence. There will be no bloody scenes such as violent killings in it, and it will even be a little fresh, but it will be a horror film like no other. ”

This time for the film investment of "The Grim Reaper", Qin Feng wanted to pull several other companies to invest together at first, but after they heard that it was a thriller, they hesitated, and finally decided not to invest, because they were really a little unoptimistic about a horror thriller without violent and bloody scenes.

"Hello Director Qin, I am Yang Mei, a reporter from Beijing Film and Television News, this time the film was filmed in Beijing, which school will I go to to film?

"This time, the filming of "Death is Coming" will be filmed in Beiying. Then, Director Zhang's movie "Hero" is being released, and the box office is also very hot, I hope that more and more directors will make more excellent movies for the audience to see, and I am also here to congratulate Director Zhang's "Hero" on the box office hit. Qin Feng replied with a smile.

"Hello Hu Ge, the TV series you starred in is on the air, and this movie is also your first time starring in a movie, the first time you played the role of the movie male lead, or a movie directed by Qin Feng, will you feel a lot of pressure?" a reporter asked Hu Ge.

"There is definitely pressure, but there is pressure to be motivated, I am very happy to be able to cooperate with Director Chen, I believe that our cooperation will be very pleasant. Hu Ge replied with a smile.

Next, after asking some questions to Qin Feng and several other leading actors one after another, the press conference lasted for a month and a half, and it ended.

"The Grim Reaper is Coming" was on the 23rd, after the start-up ceremony was held at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and the film officially started filming.

Soon after the filming of the movie began, Qin Feng asked Ang Lee to buy a scrapped plane for film shooting.

......

Beijing Airlines welcomed a different guest today, not to visit, but to buy an airplane, or a scrapped aircraft.

This request made the staff of Beijing Airlines look confused, thinking that they were here to make trouble.

However, he was dressed extraordinary, so he reported it layer by layer, and then the vice president of Beijing Airlines came down directly to greet him.

"Haha, Mr. Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time!" Li An said to the vice president of Beijing Airlines.

The two had met before, so they weren't too polite, so Ang Lee went straight to the point: "Take me to see it directly." ”

Then they got on the bus and set off, and Mr. Wang, the general manager of Beijing Airlines, asked Li An: "What are you buying a rotten plane for? If it is a decoration, I have a good one, and there is no need to buy a scrapped rotten plane." ”

Wang Ang also asked with a puzzled face, but if people want to buy it, there is no reason why they should not sell it, and it is still moldy when it is placed, and now that the garbage can be exchanged for money, it is a little happy to think about it.

Soon the two of them came to the large flat where the scrapped aircraft were stored.

As one of the top ten airlines in China, Beijing Airlines has also scrapped a lot of aircraft, and there are thirty or forty scrapped planes parked here.

Li An looked at it and said: "I want the kind of passenger plane that has no damage to the appearance, the price is the most convenient, 120 passenger planes with more than 120 seats, as long as the appearance remains intact, and there is no problem with disassembling some devices inside..."

"If you want to be in good shape, and if you want to talk about it, then I'll ask someone to show you.

Lee, you take us to find a few planes in this condition. Mr. Wang said to Li next to him.

Li is in charge of this side, so he is also very familiar with the situation here, and he directly led them to the parking points of several targets without reading the information.

Ang Lee and Mr. Wang had a smile along the way, and soon, under the leadership of Li, they looked at several planes, and after comparing them, Ang Lee chose a large passenger plane. Although the contents are almost hollowed out, they are not bad in appearance.

Mr. Wang said to Li An: "Mr. Li, we are old acquaintances, so what do you think of the friendship price of 1.8 million yuan sold to you?"

Li An didn't expect it to be so cheap, and after thinking about it, this time the budget was five million, which was really low, so he said to Mr. Wang: "Okay, it's only 1.8 million, but I still have one condition, which is to help me repaint the plane and paint it like a new plane."

Then, help me lift the plane to the suburbs, and I'll give you the address, of course, we'll pay for these expenses, what do you think?"

"Yes, I will arrange for the staff to paint as soon as possible, and then help you get out of the countryside. Mr. Wang replied, and then the two sides reached an agreement and signed the contract.

.........

Qin Feng asked Ang Lee to buy this plane because he wanted to use it to shoot the explosion, and in his previous life, "The Grim Reaper is Coming" used the airline's aircraft explosion video as a movie clip, but Qin Feng's version must be refined and will never be roughly made, so not long after the movie started, he asked Ang Lee to buy a plane.

The movie has been filming for more than a month before I know it.

On April 1st, a scrapped plane was parked on an empty field on the outskirts of Beijing, and Qin Feng was already directing the camera and preparing at this time.

Qin Feng bought this scrapped plane to make a live explosion, and then used a good camera to shoot all the explosion scenes, and then used post-production special effects to make the appearance of an explosion in the air.

Therefore, for this shooting, Qin Feng specially rented several highest-level cameras from abroad, and the shooting quality was clearer and brighter, the particles were fuller, and the light sensitivity was better.

On April 1st, the official blog of "Death is Coming" issued an announcement: On April 8th, the plane explosion scene of "Death is Coming" will be filmed in the suburbs of Beijing.

And Qin Feng's Weibo, which has not been updated for a long time, is also forwarded: Do you want to see what making a movie is like?

Now, the whole network is crazy, there is no news after "The Grim Reaper is Coming" is turned on, the whole crew is in a closed state of filming, this is suddenly going to blow up the plane, and you can still go to watch, who can stand this? No one can stop me! Countless netizens are talking about the consequences like crazy, that is, Weibo is directly paralyzed at five o'clock.

Countless fans have taken leave in advance and gone to Beijing, and countless media have also gone out!

At three o'clock in the morning on April 8, it was already pitch black, and the location where the plane was shooting was brightly lit.

The crew of "Death is Coming" and the hired security company are extremely busy at this time, preparing the shooting plan after six o'clock.

Although there were still six hours before the shooting of the plane explosion scene, it was already crowded around, so in order to be able to watch from a vantage point, they all rushed here overnight to occupy a good position.

In the morning, Qin Feng was also shocked when he saw the scene, it was really crowded, and he was also shocked by these enthusiastic fans, and at the same time arranged to strengthen supervision and strictly prevent accidents.

Qin Feng first thought of opening this plane explosion scene for everyone to see, just to take this opportunity to publicize it, and now that the whole country knows about it, it feels so high.

"Welcome to the filming site of the plane explosion scene of "The Grim Reaper", let me briefly explain the situation at the scene. Qin Feng took the microphone and pointed at the people at the scene.

"You can see that around the plane there are ten ten-meter-high iron frames, and on these shelves are ten cameras, all high-definition cameras.

The 10 cameras surrounded the blast point and shot at 360 degrees, as well as recording equipment and other equipment. After Qin Feng called another professional to answer a few questions about the equipment, the plane explosion was about to start.

At nine o'clock, after all the inspections were correct, the explosives were also placed, and after the surrounding area was cleared, all the reporters and spectators were waiting at the best viewing point.

After all the equipment was ready, Qin Feng picked up the microphone and shouted, "The blasting is about to begin!"

"Everyone stay safe, take care to avoid, ten, nine, eight, seven...... Three, two, one, detonate!"

With Qin Feng's order, the blasting master pressed the detonation device.

At the same time, the ground shook and everyone felt the shaking of the surface, and those who didn't know thought that there was an earthquake, and at this time, the audience at the scene were staring wide-eyed, looking directly at the large passenger plane that was being torn to pieces by the raging flames.

The whole explosion lasted about a minute, but everyone was still shocked by the huge explosion scene and had not yet recovered.

Then after sobering up, the applause was thunderous!!

"C is too TM shocking!"

"Just for this face, I'm sure of "Death is Coming"!"

"Holy! What just happened? Why is it gone!"

"Maple is less awesome!!"

.........

The explosion scene of "The Grim Reaper is Coming" won unanimous praise and affirmation from the audience and the media, and after "The Grim Reaper is Coming" finished filming the plane explosion scene, it switched to shoot something else, and at this time, there were countless pictures and some videos of the plane explosion scene on the Internet, which caused countless netizens who failed to come to watch.

"What's the situation? There are so many people, is this a fight?"

"This plane looks pretty cool, where is this park, I'll have time to check it out!"

"Damn, just blow it up, if you can't do it, give me a cup of '82 Sprite to suppress the shock!" At this time, there were hundreds of millions of discussions on the topic of the plane explosion scene.

Soon, the official blog of "Death is Coming" also released a clip video of the live explosion, which was immediately forwarded by countless netizens!

At the same time, countless media who watched the explosion scene quickly wrote their own opinions and analyses and posted them on the Internet, rubbing a wave of popularity, and the popularity of "Death is Coming" is really known to the people of the whole country!

.........

On April 27th, "The Grim Reaper is Coming" officially completed all the filming tasks, officially finished, and began post-production.

This time, the investment in "The Grim Reaper is Coming" is as high as 60 million, and the production of special effects is as high as 30 million.

Before the film was completed, "The Grim Reaper is Coming" had already entered post-production, and the promotion of the film had also begun.

""The Grim Reaper is Coming" spent a huge amount of money to buy an airplane to shoot the plane explosion scene!"

"The special effects of "The Grim Reaper is Coming" have produced more than 30 million, Qin Feng claims to play with the heartbeat, and the heartbeat will accelerate when watching the movie, this is a thriller movie that makes people feel the fear of death!!"

After the news about "Death is Coming" was released, countless fans and netizens who had watched the plane explosion scene at the scene immediately climaxed, and they ran to Qin Feng's Weibo to leave messages.

"Mom asked me why I was crying, I was so excited..."

"The conscience of the industry, produced by Feng Shao, must be a high-quality product!"

......

And when "Death is Coming" was in post-production, the movie also began to promote the movie in waves.

Since "The Grim Reaper is Coming" has professionals to follow up, Qin Feng has not followed up in post-production now, but there are some problems for him to decide, and after the editing is completed, we will see if there are any problems to improve.
