Chapter 976: In Africa (5)
The original work of "Operation Thunder" "100 Hours of Decisive Victory!—2016 North African Evacuation Operation" is set against the background of the civil war conflict in the Republic of Sayyato, and recounts the real events of the 3rd Escort Fleet of the Chinese Navy, which was on duty in the Gulf of Aden at that time, went to Lide to evacuate overseas Chinese.
The movie script has been adapted to a considerable extent, following the real story background, but adding a main plot of a special operations team going deep into the dangerous area to rescue the trapped medical team in Sa.
The hospital, located in the civilian area of Ridro, also has a team of Cypriot medical supporters, who have shown great welcome to the arrival of the crew of "Operation Thunder".
Some of these esteemed volunteer doctors from all over the country have only been here for a few months, or some have been working here for two years.
Thousands of miles away, in a foreign country, and a relatively backward and poor region with inconvenient communication with the outside world, it is undoubtedly very happy and joyful to be able to meet so many compatriots.
And this time, the crew also brought them a lot of living materials, all of which were randomly transported from China, many of which were eaten, including instant noodles, hot sauces, snacks and so on.
There is a story in this, that is, after the personnel sent by Hongqi Film and Television came to Ridero, they found this hospital as a filming location through the assistance of the embassy, and after learning about the deeds of the volunteer doctors, they were very moved by their selfless dedication, so they offered to bring them something they wanted.
And then the most demanded is instant noodles!
"Thank you!"
Chen Weiguo, the captain of the medical team aiding Cyprus, held Luo Kai's hand tightly and said, "It's really a charcoal in the snow!"
Luo Kai hurriedly said: "You are too polite, I hope our shooting will not affect your work." ”
"No, no, no. ”
The gray-eyed doctor shook his head again and again and said, "We were ready as soon as we received a notice from our superiors. ”
Luo Kai's heart moved, and said: "Doctor Chen, I would like to ask you to be our temporary consultant to guide us in the filming of the medical treatment part, and if you don't mind, you can also make a cameo appearance in the movie." ”
Mo Lan plays a volunteer doctor, so she needs to shoot a scene of her saving lives, but Mo Lan has no experience in this area, with this experienced real doctor as a guide, the plot is undoubtedly very real.
Chen Weiguo was stunned and said with a smile: "It's no problem to be a consultant, forget about the cameo, I don't know how to act." ”
Luo Kai smiled: "Okay, thank you." ”
After completing the communication with the medical team, the crew of "Operation Thunder" quickly started work in the hospital, setting up temporary backgrounds, lights, cameras, tracks, etc., as well as the actors' props and costumes.
The overseas crew of "Thunder Action" is formed by Hongqi Film and Television, Jiandun Film and Television and China Film, and the members are very experienced, especially the staff of Hongqi Film and Television have all had overseas shooting experience before, so the work efficiency is very high.
Although the movie has just started filming, and the daily operation of the crew still needs to be run-in, it doesn't take much effort from Luo Kai, everything is arranged in an orderly manner.
"The lights are ready!"
"Unit 1 is ready!"
"Unit 2 is ready!"
"Let's go!"
Two 4K Full HD digital cameras were up and running at once.
In one of the treatment rooms, Mo Lan, wearing a white lab coat and a mask, is operating on a little black girl with the assistance of a nurse.
“CUT!”
Luo Kai shouted to stop for the first time, he called Mo Lan over, and said in a deep voice: "Your eyes are a little nervous, you should show calm and confidence, because the volunteer doctors have a lot of experience." ”
Mo Lan nodded: "I'll do it again." ”
Although the two are the most intimate couple and unmarried couple, in the work of film shooting, Luo Kai, as a director, only treats her as an actor, and points out any problems directly, and even criticizes them, and will not look at Mo Lan differently because of his identity.
That's what Luo Kai did when he was filming "Across the Seas" before, and of course it's the same now.
Mo Lan didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this, so he went back to reshoot.
This time it's over.
There was no grand ceremony, let alone an interview with reporters, and the filming of "Thunder Action", with an investment of up to 300 million, began.
It didn't go well at first, because this episode in the hospital required a lot of group performances, most of which were played by locals and hospital staff.
They have no experience at all, and when the camera sweeps over, they often unconsciously look at the camera, showing either curious or nervous looks, so that Luo Kai can only shout to stop, and then communicate with them through an interpreter and give guidance.
Over and over again, NG did it many times, and it took until the afternoon to complete the shooting of part of the shot.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Luo Kai ordered to call it a day and return to the hotel.
You'll definitely have to bring back valuable camera equipment, but there are some things that you can leave here for a while so that you can save a lot of time on setting up tomorrow.
The staff worked together and soon evacuated.
After talking a few words with the people in the hospital, Luo Kai was also ready to leave.
At this time, the little black girl who played the patient suddenly ran over, she grabbed the corner of Mo Lan's skirt, gave a bunch of fruits, and said a few words shyly.
The interpreter next to her explained: "She asked if you would come tomorrow and gave you this bunch of fruit." ”
"Thank you. ”
Mo Lan squatted down, touched the little girl's face with a smile, and said, "I'll come back tomorrow, your performance is very good today, we will continue to cooperate tomorrow!"
This little black girl was found locally by the staff of Hongqi Film and Television, and she has a considerable role in the movie, and will be evacuated with the medical team in the later episodes.
The little girl is only 7 years old this year and is easily shy, but she behaved quite well during the shooting.
Mo Lan liked her a lot, and asked the staff for a large bag of instant noodles and chocolates as a gift in return.
The little girl opened her arms and hugged the instant noodles and chocolates tightly, her face turned red with excitement, and her speech was a little incoherent.
The interpreter said: "These are very precious treasures to her, and she said that she will take them back to her parents and younger siblings to share, and her family will be very happy." ”
Mo Lan and Luo Kai looked at each other, silent.
Luo Kai even remembered Niuniu who was far away in the capital, and didn't know what Niuniu was doing at this moment.

The first one is sent.
