The plot of this movie, called "Operation Red Sea", is not complicated, telling the story of the Chinese Navy's "Jiaolong Commando" 8-member team was ordered to carry out the evacuation mission, and the commandos were divided into two ways to rescue, but unfortunately they were ambushed and suffered casualties, and at the same time won a tragic victory in the shocking conspiracy to crush the rebel armed leaders.

But it's very difficult to actually shoot, from a battle to a dialogue or an action, and every aspect needs attention.

In addition, the shooting area is located near the Sahara Desert, and the average temperature is almost 45 degrees or more, which is a huge challenge for everyone.

The crew took live-action shooting, and every shot was a real scene, from steep mountains to barren deserts, from bustling city streets to lonely old city alleys, and traveled to nearly ten regions, each of which was a new challenge.

But since they came here, Lin Qirong and his team have long been mentally prepared and fully prepared, Ni Jiayin led her logistics team to go all out to protect the crew, so that Lin Qirong and others can devote themselves to filming.

The actors also tried their best and put in the greatest effort to strive to be recognized by the director team with the fastest speed and the best effect.

For the sake of effect, the only female member of the "Jiaolong Commando" reluctantly cut off her hair after arriving in Africa, and her neat head looked heroic and sassy, which won everyone's applause.

For the sake of the movie effect, she really worked hard.

But that doesn't mean everything is going to go smoothly.

During the filming of a blasting scene, the shells were all real, the demolition team was preparing in front, and the actors ran over with the camera, and although the safety measures were taken, one actor was still injured by the blasting stone, and he was bleeding on the spot.

However, after processing, he quickly stood in front of Lin Qirong again.

"I'm fine, I can keep shooting. ”

"Is it really okay?" Lin Qirong said worriedly, "This kind of thing is not a joke. ”

"It's really fine. The actor smiled, "Isn't it normal to shoot war scenes? ”

Lin Qirong was still not at ease, so he asked the doctor who followed the team to confirm that he was okay before allowing him to continue filming.

While filming the plot of another vehicle explosion, the crew encountered another unexpected situation.

For the sake of the real effect, the actors can be said to be very close to the explosion point, and when the vehicle really exploded, everyone was overturned by the explosion wave, and one by one sat on the ground in a daze, and one of the actors was injured.

Then for the sake of the shooting effect, some of the actors were really buried in the sand for a while, and when they were pulled out, the whole person couldn't stand it anymore, gasping for breath, and the effect was unusually good.

Such a situation appeared again and again in the process of filming, but the actors showed a strong professionalism, no one complained about being tired, let alone quitting the shooting, but devoted themselves to the shooting with greater enthusiasm and hard work, and the professionalism made everyone admire and drove everyone to work harder to complete their work.

In such a situation, the shooting progress was very fast, far exceeding Lin Qirong's expectations, but the shooting quality did not deteriorate in the slightest.

If you say it, it will definitely surprise people.

During the filming of the biggest street fight, the local government mobilized thousands of extras, and the entire city was locked down to cooperate with the crew for filming.

The entire city was turned into a huge military base, which perfectly recreated the effect that Lin Qirong wanted.

"What do you think?" Lin Qirong asked Yan Junda.

"It's a little bit bigger than it actually is. Yan Junda said, "But the momentum is not so fierce, the real militant base does not have such a calm atmosphere, the whole city is shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere, and people are killed all the time."

Reality is often scarier than the movies. ”

"So the situation you faced was even more brutal at the time?"

"No, after all, it's not like you, almost the entire city is a rebel base, and we still have a lot of support, but we still paid a huge price to get the job done.

At that time, our team was directly reduced by half, and the rest of the others were more or less injured, and in the end, only me and one other person remained in this team, and everyone else was added later. ”

Yan Junda spoke very calmly, as if he was telling a story, but Lin Qirong could still hear the heaviness and grief in his words.

In order to complete the task, in order to realize the promise that "no Chinese expatriate can be left behind", they paid a huge price, and it was the price of their lives.

I still take it for granted.

"I know, I'm going to make everyone more prepared and try to be as close to reality as possible. ”

"Actually, it's already very good, so why bother with this?"

Lin Qirong shook his head, "Although we can't completely reproduce your battles, we want to show your battles, the situations you face, and your sacrifices as truly as possible to all audiences, so that they can understand that the peace they have and the security they enjoy are the sacrifices of you people."

In order to do this, it is not enough to show your heroic deeds, but also to sacrifice and to be able to shake the hearts of all. ”

Yan Junda was silent for a while before saying, "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome. ”

After the adjustment, the whole scene has become much more vivid, showing the terrifying atmosphere of a rebel base.

The climax of the whole movie officially began filming.

The "Jiaolong Commando" infiltrated the rebel base and rescued the last hostage, but was still discovered by the rebels at the last moment, and the two sides engaged in a fierce exchange of fire.

All kinds of weapons are in battle, and the final tank battle is even more exciting.

But this scene is difficult to film, because the tank battle takes place in the desert, the wind and sand are very strong, and the crew must work hard to shoot this battle in the wind and sand.

Lin Qirong did not give up this most exciting battle because of the wind and sand, and thought of many ways, and finally relied on the super-first-class photography equipment produced by the system to perfectly capture many details of this battle.

The fierce battle, the scene of the tank exploding after being hit, and the look on the face of the tank when operating the tank······

When they saw the scenes in the camera, in the wind and sand, Lin Qirong and the others around him breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"Click, it's over. Lin Qirong announced loudly.

One of the most difficult scenes has finally passed.

"I doubt I'll drive a tank when I go back and drive myself. One actor joked to himself.

"You're just driving a tank, and I want to press it when I see the button to see if I can fire shells. Another actor also said with a smile, making everyone laugh.

Anyway, after the filming of this scene, everyone was full of confidence and felt that there was nothing to stump everyone.

The final chase scene became much simpler, and the filming was completed quickly.

And by this time, the time has come to January.

Lin Qirong stayed in this place for three months, and the filming of the scene here was finally completed.

He had a lot of tanning all over his body, and so did the rest of the crew.

Several of the actors already looked like real special squads.

"No wonder those actors don't like acting, and they all went to shoot variety shows. Li Guangsheng sighed, "Filming is really too hard, whether it is a director or an actor, he spends a few months outside."

As for filming variety shows, it only takes one or two days for one issue, and it will take about half a month or a month for a season, and it is too comfortable to be able to get a high salary and increase popularity, which is too comfortable compared to making movies. ”

Lin Qirong nodded sympathetically, it is true, compared with filming movies for a few months, it is really much easier to shoot variety shows.

"But that's why we need to do this, right?" Lin Qirong said with a smile, "We can't stop making movies for this reason." ”

Li Guangsheng sighed, "It's a pity that I haven't seen my wife for a few months." ”

Lin Qirong shook his head helplessly, who is not like this? He also deeply misses Zuo Youran and Tongtong.

Fortunately, now that the scenes in Africa have been filmed, everyone can finally go back to China to shoot the rest of the scenes.

The rest of the scenes are all scenes on warships or at sea, and they only need to be completed on ships in Huaxia.

"I'll take care of the rest. Lin Qirong and He Yijun said.

In this movie, He Yijun played no less role than him, and there was naturally no problem with filming the rest of the content.

He Yijun nodded.

He doesn't like rhetoric, and action is his best answer.

"The schedule, I hope it will be arranged in the summer schedule, for reasons you know. ”

"It's a bit of a rush, but I'll hurry. He Yijun said.

He naturally understands why, this movie is released before Army Day, this movie has greater significance, and it can be regarded as a gift to the Chinese Navy, Lin Qirong considers the problem at a higher level than him, he doesn't need to say anything, he just needs to do his best to complete the task assigned by Lin Qirong.

The crew held a banquet to celebrate the successful completion of filming in this place, and officials from the local Chinese embassy and local government officials attended and sent their best wishes to the crew.

Lin Qirong naturally responded enthusiastically, after all, their cooperation was crucial to be able to complete the shooting so smoothly.

Yan Junda and his team members also bid farewell to Lin Qirong and others at the banquet, and they must return to their troops and continue their mission.

"It's very satisfying to be able to contribute to this film and to see it tell our story authentically. Thank you. ”

Yan Junda's words were simple and sincere, which moved Lin Qirong.

The real ones are more heroic and respectable than them in the movie.

"Goodbye. ”

"Goodbye. ”

Later, the crew of "Operation Red Sea" ended filming in Africa and returned to China.

Lin Qirong flew directly to the United States to complete another agreement.
