Chapter 12: The Battle of Dunhuang (4/5)

It's a shame, you said that there is dating software everywhere now, and the crew members start with a salary of 10,000 yuan per month!

Even the salary of a lighting assistant is more than eight thousand!

Also considered middle class...

Do you still have to rely on prostitution to solve your physiological needs?

However, on second thought, it can be regarded as an increase in GDP for Hami's tertiary industry...

It is actually normal for the crew to prostitute Chang, and many crews have broken out the prostitution incident...

Yulin City Chronicle records: On July 27, 1993, the prefectural and municipal public security departments seized the case of prostitution and secret prostitution of some staff members who came to Yu to shoot the film "East Evil and West Poison", involving a total of 30 people, including 16 prostitutes, 7 secret prostitutes, and 4 pimps...

The news spread, and netizens commented: "East Evil and West Poison" is a collective prostitute, which shows that the crew does not engage in unspoken rules, and the actress does not sleep when lonely...

I don't want to think about it, Wang Guxian, Zhang Manyu, Lin Qingxia, who can you sleep with?

Of course, the message was pressed!

If this pedal gets out, "No Man's Land" will be a shame...

Zhang Junsheng has no other punishment, and he can't conclude that a man is a bad person just because of prostitution!

This is not right!

……

In August, the protection period of domestic films was ushered in, and "Big Man" continued to occupy the position of box office champion.

Originally, "Painted Skin 3" was released in August, and "Big Man" was very good at the box office, Yuehua simply adjusted the release schedule - she couldn't let her own movies fight!

"The Wind Listener", "I Love Big Big Wolf", "Disappearing Bullet", and "Hedong Lion's Roar 2", which were released at the same time, poured blood mold...

The viewing effect caused by the word-of-mouth effect spreads!

The audience ran to the theater just for "Big Man"...

It's like "Let the Bullets Fly" back then, if it weren't for the strong word-of-mouth effect of the movie, who would be willing to go to the cinema to support you?

When "Let the Bullets Fly" was released, the audience had a second choice, and when "Big Man" was released, it was quite a standout!

In addition to the die-hard fans of the actors, there are really few other movies that are willing to watch them.

"Listener to the Wind" and "Disappearing Bullet" are mainly based on Hong Kong film teams, and they also have some similarities in style, with a complete story structure, a neat cast, visual spectacle scenes, and the overall production is also above the standard...

But for a movie, or even a popcorn entertainment movie that doesn't seek depth, it's not enough to just have that.

Or maybe not enough for today's audience!

Story, star, and visual spectacle are important elements that make up a movie, but it is more important that the film has enough emotions to echo with the audience.

From this point of view, "Listener to the Wind" and "Disappearing Bullet" obviously did not do it - this is also the reason why it is difficult for Hong Kong movies to break out!

Especially "The Wind Listener", a movie with a red theme, the Hong Kong team treats it as an assembly-line commercial film - love scenes occupy the leading role!

"The Wind Listener" is adapted from Mai Jia's "Secret Calculation", this one is very good, the story is very exciting, the plot is tight, the rhythm is free, and the adapted TV series is also very popular, and it also set a high rating at the time.

In addition, Director Mai has reformed since "Guan Yunchang", and has successively made good films such as "Eavesdropping 2", Zhou Xun and Tony Leung, two powerful actors...

However, they still messed up!

"The Wind Listener" was adapted into a romance film dressed as a spy war...

As for "Disappearing Bullet", it's even worse...

It is called a bad movie by many people!

That is, after these two films, Hong Kong directors couldn't figure out the needs of mainland audiences, and a group of Hong Kong filmmakers simply didn't cater to mainland audiences as their main demand, and began to drum up what they are good at, such as "Cold War", "Treading Blood and Seeking Plum Blossoms", "Wushuang", but ushered in a small rise...

At the end of August, the two films "The Amazing Spider-Man" and "Batman: The Dark Knight Rise" were released, ending the box office champion of "Big Man"...

In September, three Hollywood blockbusters, "Prometheus", "The Expendables 2" and "Ring Messenger", hit ...

Yuehua simply moved "Painted Skin 3" to September 15th!

You can't use it to fight for Hollywood blockbusters, right?

……

In order to ensure the taste of no man's land in the script, "No Man's Land" was all filmed outside, and it had been filmed in Xin*Xinjiang for a while, and it was transferred to Dunhuang in September...

During the preliminary site survey, the main creative team wanted to set the two beams in the three Lingnan springs...

There are ready-made border towns there.

It's a pity that the security in that place is too strict - after 09 years, the security in the northwest has been very serious!

It was very simple to transfer the role of Erdaoliangzi to Dunhuang - just set up a scene.

Brother Bo is finished, and he leaves directly after receiving the lunch.

Huang Xuan has very few shots left, one set today, one group tomorrow, and it's completely OK.

He only had a role in the afternoon, but he had nothing to do, so he got up early and followed Yang Qing to the set.

That place is not far from the hotel, listening to Yang Qingchuan, the crew built a small town in half a month...

Actually, it's, there is indeed a small town in this place, but most of the residents in it have gone to the east to work, and there are only a few elderly people left...

The crew rented the town and transferred the uncles to a hotel in Dunhuang...

Add a few more buildings, and the two beams will come out!

Huang Xuan arrived at the crew, and there was endless yellow sand, ancient vines, old trees, dim light, and old sets...

It's like being in a barren place, and I feel a little small...

He somewhat understood what Zhang Junsheng said when he first started filming, Lao Tzu taught those people, what is a western!

The thinking routine of "No Man's Land" is simple: don't talk about human nature with people with extremely bad moral character, otherwise they will pull you down to the same height as them, and then use their rich experience to kill you.

The harsh environment of the barren sand and Gobi has shaped some inhumane inhabitants, and when the self-righteous spokesmen of modern civilization come to their hinterland, you not only put down the guns in your hands, but also want to negotiate peace with them. These beings, who obey the purest and primitive laws of nature, will be grateful to the heavens, and then they will squeeze you and tear you apart.

Pan Xiao, a self-serving white-collar lawyer, succeeded in his courtroom and social arena, and failed because he overestimated the power of reason and thinking.

Now to shoot the ending of the dancing girl...

The script is simple: Pan Xiao and the eagle seller are all gone, and in the midst of the flying banknotes, she is very confused and does not know where to go...

Pan Xiao's death has nothing to do with human nature, he is just an unlucky guy who inadvertently entered the wolves...

He didn't think about saving the dancing girl either, and the reed gave a better explanation, 1 million!

For one million, he came to the place where the Erdaoliang Eagle Falcon traded...

Compared with the original version of the split personality, Zhang Junsheng also thinks that it is better to deal with it this way!
