Chapter 135: Filming

Returning to Cold Mountain Town, Ji Mingzhe took the crew to survey the terrain in a wilderness 15 kilometers away, and then he was going to shoot the largest battle of Krett in "Cold Mountain", which took place on July 30, 1864 in real history, and a total of 6,300 people on both sides were killed in the battle, among which the Northern Army suffered particularly heavy casualties. … , Chi Mingzhe is ready to shoot this scene more shockingly, so more than 1,800 extras were hired alone, which surprised the outside media.

After the filming location was decided, the special effects designer in the crew, Fei Ruiti, seriously walked around and kept writing and drawing in the notebook in his hand, and then he told SΓΉ Chi Mingzhe that if he wanted to restore the real scene at that time, he had to dig a large number of trenches, pave hundreds of meters of railroad tracks, build a whole fortress, build a lot of fortifications, and it was best to build a temporary field hospital. Thinking of such a trouble, Chi Mingzhe couldn't help but scratch his brain, Ferretti is Hollywood's first-class special effects designer, and Perry also took a lot of effort to pry him into the company, Chi Mingzhe thought carefully for more than half an hour before he decided to shoot grandiose.

Returning to the town, Chi Mingzhe immediately ordered to hire a large number of construction machinery to go to the site and start building the battlefield according to Ferreti's plan, but the weather suddenly became bad, it rained for four consecutive days, and the venue became muddy, and all the crew had to stay in the town to eat, drink and have fun, and then many people asked for leave to leave Lengshan, and Chi Mingzhe also agreed, but once he was summoned. You have to get all of them.

"What the hell! This weather says it rains, it rains, it's not over yet!"

Lee Yong-sik grabbed his wine glass and stayed in the tavern in the town with Ji Mingzhe, looking at the majestic rain outside and complaining.

"Alright. Rest assured, just rest! Fortunately, there is nothing lacking here. ”

Chi Mingzhe lowered his head, took his mobile phone and texted each other with the girls who were far away in Los Angeles to play, and he was idle anyway on a rainy day.

At this time, his mobile phone rang, looked at the caller number, and pressed the answer button.

"President, are you busy?"

"It's okay, Brother Zhenying! Are you reconciled?"

Park Zhenying on the other end of the phone was filled with joy.

"I'm getting married!"

"Really, congratulations, when is the ceremony going to happen?"

"On March 20, at the company's hotel, will the chairman be able to return to Korea?"

"Of course. Brother Zhenying, how can I not attend your wedding?"

"Great! I'm afraid I'll delay your work!"

Ji Mingzhe is also sincerely happy for Park Jin-young, who is 31-year-old Park Jin-young and finally got married.

"I'm in a hurry, I'm going to rush back! Brother Zhenying! I've got all the wedding banquet for you, and it's a congratulatory gift for you. ”

"That'...... Thank you so much, Mingzhe, I ......."

"Okay! We're good friends, aren't we? I chose the Courtyard in Cheongdam-dong. By the way, do you want to invite the girls and Heicher to them?"

"Yes. I'll call them and Hee-cheol later, is Brother Yung Sik there?"

"Yes, you wait a minute. ”

Ji Mingzhe handed the phone to Lee Yong-sik, and he thought in his heart that by then, the filming progress of the movie was halfway completed, and it should not be a big problem. Then I got the phone back.

"That's ......right, Mingzhe! I'd like to ask you to sing a song live, how about it?...... Yin Jing is your fan, I want to ......"

Park Jin-young was a little stumbling. For fear that this request would cause Chi Mingzhe's displeasure, after all, his identity is here.

"Haha! No problem! Sing a new song for you!"

Ji Mingzhe thought in his head. When the time came, he sang a song, but he still agreed very happily.

"Thank you so much!

Hanging up the phone, Ji Mingzhe and Lee Yong-sik looked at each other and laughed.

Jude Law and Natalie Portman ran into the tavern with umbrellas.

"Didn't you all go back?"

Ji Mingzhe is very strange, because of the weather, the crew has a holiday, and many people have returned to Los Angeles.

"I'm too troublesome to run around, isn't it nice to have food and drink here? ”

Ji Mingzhe turned to the bar counter and took a bottle of gin and put two glasses in front of Jude Law and Natalie.

"Drink it! Drink the wine here, drink it to death!"

"Haha!"

Jude Law was a heavy drinker and often got drunk with Leonardo.

Natalie unscrewed the wine bottle and poured it for everyone who was seated, her skirt was a little wet, and the pair of **** on her chest kept shaking with the movement, Ji Mingzhe took a look, and then looked away.

"Cheers to the damn weather!"

"!"

Jude held his glasses, and the glasses touched together.

When Natalie was drinking, his eyes kept looking at Ji Mingzhe, but he deliberately looked at the table, but he knew in his heart that Natalie was looking at him, and his heart said that he hadn't been found staring at her breasts just now!

"Natalie, aren't you going back to school? graduating this year, right?"

Ji Mingzhe had nothing to say.

"I graduated in June, why do you still want me to film?"

Natalie held her glass in both hands, her eyes playful.

"If there's a suitable role, I'll contact you. ”

Natalie doesn't have many roles in "Cold Mountain", and Ji Mingzhe plans to complete her role when the weather is good.

After a whole day of rain, Ji Mingzhe returned to his bedroom, and after a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Ugh...... Natalie!"

"You won't want me to come in and sit down?"

"Please, ma'am!"

Letting go of the body, Chi Mingzhe thought in his heart, it wouldn't be something for her to come to her now!

"William, I heard that after the filming of "Cold Mountain", you will continue to shoot "The Departed"?"

Natalie sat on the couch in Ji Mingzhe's room, her legs folded, and she had changed her clothes. He also wears slippers on his feet.

"You're well-informed, Leonardo sues you?"

"No! ”

Ji Mingzhe remembered that he had talked to Nicole and Jude, but unfortunately it was a man's play. There are few female characters, and some are also dragon roles.

"Don't get me wrong! I'm not here to ask for a role. It's just boring and I don't know what to do, so I'll come to you and talk to you. ”

"Really, that's a great idea!" ......

Five days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Natalie came to Ji Mingzhe again, saying goodbye to him, her role has all ended, and she will leave Lengshan Town tomorrow, and everyone will celebrate together in the evening to practice for her. Everyone drank a little too much, and Ji Mingzhe also drank it in place, and he was just about to rest when he came back. Natalie came to him with the smell of alcohol and hugged him without saying a few words.

Ji Mingzhe also finally got a glimpse of Natalie's chest, it was really big, but this woman seemed to be more eager than him. Volunteered to push him down on the bed. made him feel very happy, the next day his situation was a little inappropriate, his memory seemed to be a little wrong, I can't figure out how many times I did it with Natalie last night, or if I did it, I drank too much last night, and my back hurts at this time, and Li Yongzhi, who lived downstairs from him just now. I came to him with dark circles under my eyes and told him that he couldn't fall asleep in the second half of last night. The upstairs room never stopped, hoping that he would pity his family who was not around.

"Everyone's out! ...... quickly"

The field manager held a megaphone and yelled loudly to the staff present, in the distance, Chi Mingzhe, the actors and crew members all went down to a trench, only Li Rongzhi had a boom truck, which was lifted into the air, more than ten meters above the ground, and there were the same three cars around, with a camera and photographer on it, facing the open space in front of him, Ferreti was lying on the ground with a few assistants to make some noise, and then they also evacuated there.

Down to the trenches, he came to Chi Mingzhe's side and nodded to him, Chi Mingzhe handed the walkie-talkie to his mouth and asked again, if there are still people who have not evacuated, there will be a shocking explosion later, in order to create this explosion scene, the special effects artists used 6000 liters of gasoline and 150 kilograms of ********, which is really dangerous enough.

"Let's get started! ”

Chi Mingzhe shook his head at him and then covered his ears, and the people around him learned to cover their ears with him, in fact, everyone wore protective earmuffs, but this was all a subconscious action.

"Okay, everyone, be careful!"

He took out the remote control and pressed it hard.

"Boom ......"

The earth was trembling, huge fires and pillars of smoke rose into the air, directly rushing into the air at a height of nearly 60 meters, a lot of gravel was thrown around at high speed, the earth was flying, and many humanoid objects were thrown away, a shocking scene was deeply imprinted in the minds of these people around, but everyone felt that their chests were stuffy, and the shock wave was too powerful.

Chi Mingzhe and they raised their heads carefully, and saw that there was still smoke in front of them, and they couldn't see anything clearly, this is a torn stump and broken arm everywhere on the ground, these are prop man models, but the degree of simulation is very high, and it was spent a lot of money to ask Hollywood props masters to make zuΓ², and more than 350 prop people have all been reimbursed. This is to simulate that the Northern Army dug tunnels into the enemy's hinterland in order to break through the encirclement, and blew up a fortress underground with explosives, thus forming a giant crater 170 feet long and 60 to 80 feet wide, but the scene just now has completely surpassed, the situation back then, Chi Mingzhe grinned, he just wanted this big scene.

"Brother Rong Zhi, how are you?

Looking up at Li Yongzhi on the boom, Ji Mingzhe was afraid that he would be in danger.

Li Yongzhi didn't speak, just pointed to his ear, indicating that he couldn't hear what Ji Mingzhe said now, he was in mid-air, and the impact was much bigger than that of hiding in the trench. The four booms were quickly lowered, and the staff gathered around several photographers to check whether they were injured, and one of the photographers' arms was actually scratched by the rushing mud, which was nearly 600 meters away from the blasting center and was not injured, which shows how powerful the explosion was.

More than 1,800 extras have changed into military uniforms, simulating the soldiers of the American Army at that time, lined up on the battlefield to fight each other, and suddenly it was full of smoke, there were too many props and guns, Jude Law's face was covered with dust, wearing tattered military uniforms and standing in the front row of the actors who played the Southern Army, posing in various fighting poses, Li Yong-sik pushed the camera lens to continuously shoot him from all angles, and then there was a long shot of the entire fighting scene, and there were several cameras around shooting in various positionsChi Mingzhe used the monitor to watch the camera footage until ten minutes later when the assistant began to stop.

The filming of the movie has been completed for most of the time, and it will be completed in half a month in the future, and the speed at which Ji Mingzhe makes the movie has been very fast, mainly because all aspects are prepared in advance, and the crew are all veterans, so the progress will be so fast. But no matter how fast it is, Ji Myung-cheol is going to stop work, and the time has come to March 17, and he has to rush back to Los Angeles to pick up the girls and Kim Hee-cheol and them, and return to South Korea to attend Park Jin-young's wedding together.
