024 Hardship

"Pacific War" officially started filming, and the entire crew was running like a meticulous instrument. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

But after the first week of filming, Lan Li was idle. Because Eugene's role appeared in the first episode, the second and third episodes did not appear at all, and it was only an appearance in the fourth episode, and it was not until the fifth episode that Eugene joined the Pacific War in full swing as a recruit and entered a long and arduous tug-of-war.

For nearly a month and a half, Lan Li had no work tasks on her side, just moving around with the crew. This made Lan Li experience the true meaning of filming for the first time: "Filming, is waiting", this sentence comes from James, played by Robert Lezzie.

During filming, most of the time was spent waiting, even for the main character. Not only because the set and preparation of each scene takes a lot of time, but also that each scene needs to be divided into sub-shots for shooting, with different actors, different angles, and different distances, and a scene needs to be shot seven or eight times without mistakes.

Therefore, waiting is a compulsory course for every actor, which is far from the crew life imagined by Lan Li.

In fact, Lan Li didn't have a job during this time, he could take a vacation and rest, although the whole crew was in Australia, but if he wanted, he could go to the Golden Coastline for a walk and come back. But after thinking about it, Lan Li had really considered this option, and he decided to stay, for the simple reason of "Pacific War".

This series is very special, with a time span of more than two years, and truly describes the U.S. military's dealings with the Japanese army in the Pacific, experiencing countless life-and-death battles large and small, and it can be said that the impact of every night and every encounter on soldiers is immeasurable.

Lan Li can choose to go on vacation, but he will be detached from the realism of the entire battlefield, and the fault line of the time span will also affect the performance. Originally, he lived in an era of peace, and his understanding of war came from images and words, and he could never really feel the indelible impact of war on the soldiers.

Lan Li not only chose to stay in the crew, but also went through the arduous filming with the other actors, coming and going in the wind and rain, and truly felt the test brought by every battle.

For example, two weeks ago, Lan Li and Jon Seda, James Beji Dale and other actors lay in the mud of the torrential rain for forty-nine hours, sleepless, and the bath was even more extravagant. The test of still having to fight hard in the face of physical strength cannot be experienced by imagination alone, and the fear of still worrying about life hanging by a thread under exhaustion cannot be understood just by listening to other people's descriptions.

The added gain is that Lan Li really met a lot of friends in the crew, and the experience of sharing weal and woe made them easily find resonance, which is indeed the fastest and most effective way for Lan Li to integrate into the crew as a newcomer. At the same time, the isolation and exclusion of Richard's group could not be realized.

Towards the end of September, Lan Li finally put on the battlefield again, because Eugene officially landed on the battlefield, which also means that he is no longer a foil, but gradually takes over the position of Robert Lezzy in the first half of the series, and grows into the first protagonist of the whole series, shouldering the beam.

In the blink of an eye, the "Pacific War" crew had been filming for more than four months, and when they first arrived in Australia, it was still winter, and now it is summer. If nothing else, they will spend their first summer Christmas.

"Everyone find cover, the explosion range has been demarcated just now, don't exceed the range line, remind again, don't exceed the range line! Find cover in advance, and then follow the route!"

The leader of the special effects team shouted loudly with a loudspeaker that in fact, in the past four months, they have experienced double digits in explosions of all sizes, and the actors are no strangers.

However, the scene to be filmed today is more special, because it is on an empty playground, although there are many ruin bunkers nearby, but the content of the scene is that the army is stuck in the middle of the road, and in a completely empty situation, it encounters an explosion - an air attack from friendly forces, because of the time error of intelligence, which led to a devastating air attack by friendly forces, which turned into a disaster.

Because it was an open space, it was even more difficult to control the explosion, especially since the actors had to cross the square during the explosion, and the special effects team was also on standby, and it took five days to rehearse for the scene.

"Rookie, rookie. James's joking voice came to his ears, and since the first day, this nickname has followed Lan Li, even if all the actors in the crew are full of praise for Lan Li's acting skills. However, the nickname also means that Lan Li is truly accepted by everyone.

Lan Li was sorting out his shoulder straps, he was a mortar gunner, and the mortar on his back was his weapon, which accompanied the whole shooting process, but he still had an extra rifle in his hand today, so he needed to adjust his posture, and he didn't turn his head back, Lan Li returned, "Don Juan, have a fart to release quickly." "Don Juan" is James's nickname, a self-proclaimed lover.

"I'm betting with you, Big Eyes and the others are sure to fall. James's words immediately provoked "big eyes" Rami complained dissatisfiedly, "Hey! I'm not so clumsy, okay! I can guarantee that I will definitely not be in a situation today!"

Lan Li held his rifle and looked left and right, confirming the route for a while, "Don Juan, I bet you, the big eye will definitely be hit, and the clod of dirt will hit the door of the head!"

"Rookie!" Rami shouted unwillingly, but there was nothing he could do with James and Lan Li, so he could only clench his fists depressedly, "I definitely won't!"

James and Lan Li directly ignored Rammy's ambitions, discussing whether they could finish filming this scene within three days, and Rami was left alone next to him, which made the other actors next to him laugh. Then there was a voice in my ears, "All departments are ready." ”

Lan Li interrupted the conversation, slowed down the rhythm of her breathing, and became highly concentrated, and entered the rhythm of shooting again.

After hearing the explosion, Eugene bent down and ran along the established route, the flying sand blurred his vision, and from time to time he could feel the clods of earth hitting his body, and the sound of intensive gunfire in his ears was heard, and the ruins under his feet were splashed with a whole row of bullet holes - it was obvious that the air was attacking intensively, which forced him to start looking for cover to temporarily avoid the limelight, and the impenetrable attack made him dance like a mine on the tip of a knife, and a single negligence could have led to his death.

But he didn't have time to think about the threat of death, his blank brain rang with the prediction of the alarm bell, and every cell in his body could feel the precarious fear, which made his steps more and more steady, and he came out of the cover again, and continued to move forward with rolling and crawling, the beating of his heart and the rhythm of his breathing lost its meaning at this moment.

"Cards!"

The explosions and gunfire suddenly stopped, and David's voice echoed through the horn over the entire clearing, "Stay in place, everyone, stay in place, next shoot the shot of Robert going back, the camera crew changes angles, and the actors are in place!"

Lan Li's shoulders slackened slightly, in fact, relatively speaking, the shooting of war scenes is much simpler, because in the rain of bullets, acting skills need not delicacy and depth, but reality, relying on the body's instinct / ability to cooperate with the props team, special effects team, and camera crew, which is enough. What is really difficult is the precipitated scenes after the battle, which is also the part of the "Pacific War" that distinguishes it from "Band of Brothers", a lot of psychological portrayal and character exploration, which puts forward higher requirements for both actors and directors.

"Ahh

"Merrill falls, Merrill falls!" Lan Li immediately shouted, calling by the name of Rammy's character in the play, and at the same time ran over quickly, "Man, are you okay?" Although the weight of the explosion was carefully calculated, accidental injuries were inevitable, and everyone had some minor injuries on their bodies when filming war scenes.

Rami pressed his feet the floor, splashing a patch of soil, but he still didn't make a sound.

Lan Li looked up and down, at least he didn't see any blood, which was a good sign. Immediately, Lan Li saw that Rami kept glaring at him, Lan Li didn't know why, "What's wrong? Are you injured or did you fall down accidentally?"

Rammy's expression became more and more anxious, he let go of his hands, and couldn't help but let out a low moan/moan, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "I'm fine, I'm fine, don't let everyone come, don't ......"

There was too little information, and Lan Li didn't understand what Rami meant, "Let the doctor come and check it out." Before the words could be finished, the crew and other fellow actors had already run over and asked about the situation with concern. Lan Li could only raise his head and explain, "I don't know the situation either, Rami suddenly fell, and then exhaled in pain, the medical staff came to check it." ”

James squatted down beside Lan Li and asked with concern, "Rammy, are you okay?" Usually joking, itself is a sign of intimacy, and when it comes to situations, they are more anxious than anyone else.

Lan Li frowned, just last month, he dislocated his arm and sprained his ankle, although it was not a big problem, but he also rested for two days because of the problem with his arm. Looking at Rammy's current situation, it's really not good, he has been lying on the ground, these few minutes have passed, he has not turned over, let alone stood up, it seems to be very serious.

Glancing again, Lan Li tried to see if it was a trauma or something else...... Then, Lan Li saw a strange little detail - what was it, stuck in Rammy's buttocks, which looked like a twig?
