Chapter 978: In Africa (7)
The ruins scattered all over the ruins were quiet, and the smoke of gunpowder was silent.
Suddenly, the roar of the engine came from far and near, and after only a few minutes, a thick gun barrel appeared in the camera, and soon a T75 main battle tank was revealed.
Although the tank may look old and lacking in perfect maintenance, its weight of more than 40 tons, its sturdy and thick armor, 125 mm caliber, and the 12.7 mm heavy machine gun mounted on the turret make this weapon of war still impressive.
It easily ran over the collapsing house, and with the mechanical sound of "clicking", the turret slowly rotated half a circle to the right before froze.
The air seemed to freeze at this moment.
Boom!
The next moment, a blazing flame erupted from the muzzle of this T75, the heavy hull shook violently, and a grenade shot out, hitting a building three or four hundred meters in front in an instant.
Rumble!
The tank grenade that hit the target exploded as it pierced the wall, and the force of the explosion ruthlessly destroyed the three-story building, sending countless pieces of rubble flying everywhere and a cloud of black smoke and dust rising up.
The shelling of the T75 tank seemed to be a signal for an attack, and at the same time as the building was destroyed, hundreds of soldiers in green uniforms and many more tanks of the same type appeared behind it.
These soldiers, either with automatic rifles or RPGs on their backs, charged forward in a vertical skirmisher line, and the soldier who rushed to the front pulled the trigger, and the sound of "sudden rush" was exciting.
And this battle scene, which was fought by seven tanks and more than 300 real soldiers, was completely filmed by cameras arranged around and in the air.
Luo Kai, who was in charge of the command, held the walkie-talkie in his hand, stared firmly at the five monitors arranged in front, and constantly issued instructions.
"Machine Four, keep up!"
"Drone lowers altitude, dives close-up!"
"Pay attention to the position of the No. 1 machine!"
Although he has rich experience in war shooting, he can't help but be preoccupied with all his efforts to arrange such a big scene.
In today's fierce battle scene, real guys and big guys were used, and in order to cooperate with the filming work of the crew, the military of the Republic of Sacra sent a battalion of army officers and soldiers stationed in Ridero and a tank company, which can be described as a mobilization of the army.
Even if it is a movie, it is quite a consumption to dispatch so many people and weapons and equipment, for example, the T75 tank just fired a genuine grenade with great lethality, of course, the target of destruction is the ruined buildings left over from the previous civil war and have not been cleaned up.
And all the soldiers held rifles loaded with special empty cartridges, and these black uncles fought happily and happily, burning all the money.
The help received by the overseas crew of "Operation Thunder" is not free, in fact, a large part of the total budget of 350 million is paid to the Sega government and army.
If you don't shoot well or if you don't have good results and you need to reshoot, it will be very troublesome, and you will need to burn more and more money.
Not only Luo Kai, but the other crew members were also trembling, some of them had no similar shooting experience, and they were taken aback by the sound of artillery and explosions just now, but fortunately there were no major problems.
“OK!”
Luo Kai shouted, and everyone was immediately relieved - the scene was finally completed.
Luo Kai put down the walkie-talkie, clapped his hands and said, "Rest for half an hour, and then prepare for the next one!"
He let out a long breath and sat down in his chair.
"Let's have a cigarette. ”
Shi Fei, the assistant director, moved the chair and sat next to him, handed a cigarette at the same time, and said with a smile: "The effect is very good, have you filmed before?"
Shi Fei is really curious, you must know that war scenes are not something that fledgling directors can control, and if you want to control the scene perfectly, you often need to accumulate rich experience.
Before "Thunder Action", Luo Kai had only directed one "Across the Seas", although "Across the Seas" as an action movie has a lot of content involving gunfights, which is completely pediatric compared to the real war.
Previously, Hongqi Film and Television also had concerns about this, so they specially invited Shi Fei to be Luo Kai's assistant.
Shi Fei has filmed a number of film and television dramas on the theme of modern warfare, and there is no problem with his experience.
He was also ready to take over the filming of the war scenes, but he didn't expect Luo Kai's command arrangements to be in order, not at all like an inexperienced novice, and he was skilled and experienced in scheduling and control.
"I've consulted a few teachers..."
Luo Kai can't say that he has filmed many times in another world, and explained vaguely: "I have also watched a lot of films with the same theme, so I can be regarded as a little experience." ”
Shi Fei sighed: "This is talent, the real ancestor appreciates food!"
Luo Kai smiled: "Thanks to your help, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to do it alone." ”
It's good to enjoy the shade with the big tree at your back, it's really comfortable to cooperate with a big national unit like Hongqi Film and Television, the professional level of the crew is very high, and there is no intrigue in the internal unity, everyone works together to ensure the smooth shooting.
If he formed his own team and came to Saiga, it would be very troublesome to just communicate with Saiga officials.
Luo Kai called the drama manager over and gave a few orders.
Soon, boxes of Coke were brought out of the supply truck and distributed by the crew to the Saiga soldiers who participated in the filming.
After the filming ended, these black uncles hid in the shadows of the ruined houses to rest, and when they saw the Coke sent by the crew, they all smiled, and immediately unscrewed the bottle cap and drank it happily.
These Saiga soldiers played a very important role, and they participated in the filming in a similar way to the exercise, and the images presented to the audience in the future will undoubtedly appear extremely realistic, and many scenes are basically impossible to complete in China.
Since the filming process will last for many days, the crew has provided them with a lot of benefits to ensure morale, and Coke belongs to the category of daily supply.
Uncle Black has a great love for Coke, and a large bottle of Coke is enough to ensure their strong morale for half a day, which is much easier to satisfy than domestic group performances.
Therefore, Luo Kai deliberately asked the logistics staff of the crew to ensure that a sufficient amount of Coke was purchased and loaded in the supply truck, mainly to supply them.
Luo Kai and Shi Fei chatted for a few minutes, and after smoking a cigarette, he handed over the walkie-talkie and megaphone to the latter, along with the director's authority.
Luo Kai himself changed into a set of special combat equipment, because what will be filmed below is the scene between him and the members of the Thunder Squad!
