Chapter 625 The Great Project (Kavin, just one chapter today, sorry)
As one of the most well-known film and television cities in China, Zhedong Film and Television City has very complete facilities and covers a wide area. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ ใ ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ
There are mainly some ancient buildings here, there are ancient buildings of various dynasties, among which there is a palace that covers a huge area, in the westernmost part of the film and television city, hanging alone, but it is built very magnificently, there is indeed a bit of ancient royal style, but it is just a few points, and the real royal palace, it is still far away.
The purpose of Jiang Xia's trip is this palace.
Hengying rented this palace for a whole year, and even signed a contract for priority renewal when it expired, which cost a lot of money, and the production of the blockbuster can be reflected in all aspects.
The palace is usually open to tourists for sightseeing, and when there is no crew stationed in it, it will be opened, if there is a crew filming in it, it needs to see the openness of the crew, and the general crew also allows tourists to enter the sightseeing, because during the rental of the palace, the crew can get sixty percent of the tickets for tourists to play, and even during the filming, they can get eighty percent, which is a way to recover costs.
Jiangxia's crew hasn't settled in yet, so now there are also tourists who come to sightseeing, but because it's still early and it's winter, there are not many people here, but there are also a few sporadic tourists taking pictures.
The group drove to the gate of the palace, Jiang Xia got out of the car and walked, followed by a group of people.
The art team leader of "The City is Full of Golden Armor" brought two people to follow, Cheng Xin and Xue Yan also followed, Zhuang Hao also followed, the scene and drama affairs also followed one, and Cheng Xin's two bodyguards.
The group walked to the palace in a very spectacular manner, looking at the surrounding environment while walking in Jiangxia.
Compared with the busy and lively interior of the film and television city, this palace can be regarded as a quiet place, tourists see their group, very curious, can't help but look twice, they don't look like they are here to visit. However, the tourists did not recognize that it was Jiang Xia standing in front of them.
Jiang Xia came to the gate of the palace, touched the gate and said: "The gate is not good, it needs to be repainted, according to the style of the Forbidden City, red bottom, golden button." โ
Naturally, someone on the artist's side wrote down some of the requirements Jiang Xia said.
Xue Yan asked: "Isn't the background of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period? How to use the style of the Forbidden City? The Forbidden City is from the Ming and Qing dynasties, so it shouldn't be different, right?"
Jiang Xia said: "Yes, it's different. However, this gate, in my vision, will only be used once or twice. So, if you want to save trouble, you can wrap the whole door in a layer of paper, but I'm going to do it realistically, you know?"
"If there's a way to save money, let us know. Xue Yan said.
Jiang Xia shrugged his shoulders and said: "I try my best, occasionally I can't think of it, but I suggest that it is better to repaint and decorate." How to get it will be discussed when you go back. โ
The group continued to walk forward, and after passing the first gate, Jiang Xia looked around, did not speak, and continued to walk forward.
After passing through the second door and the third doorway, Jiang Xia said: "These three doorways will appear, when art, strengthen the sense of hierarchy, each door should be beautified, the appearance should be better organized, the packaging will be slippery, the color will be brighter, and the whole will be mainly golden." โ
"Good. "The art team leader should be down.
Jiang Xia walked to the square in front of the imperial palace, turned his head and asked, "How big is this square?"
"I don't know, if there is a need, immediately find someone to ask for data. Zhuang Hao replied.
Jiang Xia waved his hand and said, "From the first gate to the entrance of the palace, I have been covered with a carpet with chrysanthemums as a pattern. The width of the carpet is the same as the width of the center door. The specific color, you artists look at it, and after determining the style, show it to me. โ
"Good. โ
Jiang Xia pointed to the square in front of him and said, "Here, at the gate of the palace, a chrysanthemum platform is established. You have drawings for specific proportions, and the style is also according to that style. Then on both sides of this square, with this carpet in the center as the central axis, they were all filled with chrysanthemums, yellow chrysanthemums, pot after pot, filled for me. โ
"How full?" Xue Yan asked.
Jiang Xia gestured: "From this road, it is about the edge of the carpet line, all the way to the root of the wall over there, and the back is also to the front and back wall roots, all of which are full of chrysanthemums, and they must be as neat as possible." โ
"How many pots of chrysanthemums are this!" Zhuang Hao exclaimed.
Jiang Xia said: "So, in order to prevent shortages, you have to book in advance now." Because when filming, there must be more than one wave of consumption, and you must prepare at least five times the amount, or even more. โ
"I suddenly understood why this was a blockbuster. Zhuang Hao gasped.
Xue Yan said, "Are you crazy, how much does it cost?"
"How else is this a blockbuster? I'll be honest, this movie doesn't use many special effects, a lot of stunts, and most of the money goes to manpower and scenes. Jiang Xia said, "I have learned that the current domestic blockbusters are mainly spent on special effects, and there are not many real shots, so I want to try real shots." โ
Jiang Xia is telling the truth, he does know about it, he doesn't know much about the movies of this world, but he is also a person in this industry, when preparing the script of the blockbuster, he has learned about those blockbusters, and it seems that he has learned from foreign countries, and he uses special effects as the main means. After so many years of development, the special effects are not bad, but there is not much breakthrough.
So Jiang Xia also considered it at that time, when all the special effects were used, it would definitely be very shocking to use real shots.
The shock caused by real human power is incomparable to the special effects in any way. Jiang Xia also likes imaginative special effects blockbusters, but he can never forget the shock caused by the real shot. The real 10,000 people and the 10,000 people made by special effects are absolutely different from the feeling presented on the screen.
There are a lot of real shots in "The City is Full of Golden Armor", and Zhang Yimou, the old plotter, really used a lot of people, and there was a war scene, and even more than 20,000 people were used. It was a real shot, not a special effect, and it was very difficult to shoot.
The reason why Jiang Xia wants to make such a live-action blockbuster instead of shooting a special effects blockbuster is very simple. If you want to make a special effects blockbuster in Gongshan Studio, there is still hope, but it is impossible to make such a real blockbuster. There are too few people in Gongshan Studio to mobilize such a big scene.
You have to try everything to be able to face any challenge.
"Are the people from the action team here?" Jiang Xia asked.
"Nope. Zhuang Hao replied, "If there is any request, I can convey it." โ
"Convey it, too. Jiang Xia said, "Tell the people in the action team that the scene of the 10,000-person scuffle, the location of the war, is in front of the Chrysanthemum Terrace, about this position, accounting for one-third of the dividing line of the entire square. At first, the siege force Golden Armor occupied two-thirds of the square, and then gradually pressed back, pressing to a quarter of this side. โ
"Remembered. Zhuang Hao recorded it on his mobile phone.
Jiang Xia nodded and said: "In addition, after they get here, take a look at the roofs around them or something, mainly on the east and west sides, there are people who need to stand there, and there are a lot of them." Let them pay attention to the security measures, and the problem of positioning. โ
"Good. Zhuang Hao recorded it again.
Jiang Xia glanced around the square again, and after finding that there was nothing to pay attention to, Jiang Xia continued to walk inside.
The interior of the palace was originally well decorated, showing the luxury and majesty of the palace.
But as soon as Jiang Xia came in, he completely denied it.
"The decoration drawings here are already available, just follow the decoration drawings. Jiang Xia said, "Go inside and take a look, inside the palace, there are a lot of places that need to be used." The queen's bedroom, the eldest prince Yuanxiang's bedroom, the emperor's bedroom, the second prince Yuanjie's bedroom, the pharmacy, several places where the emperor is located, and so on. Now it is necessary to pick them out one by one, first of all, to choose a central point around which to determine how many rooms are located. Shop first and choose later, because distance also needs to be considered, the lens can deceive people, but some places are too similar, it is always bad. โ
The group began to observe in the palace, and bumped into a few tourists who came to visit, and saw that they were only tourists, and they were about to continue walking forward after just two glances, but one person suddenly shouted: "Jiang Xia!"
Jiang Xia was already at the forefront, but at this time he had already missed the tourists, and when he heard the shouting, he subconsciously turned his head.
"What Jiangxia?"
"He's Jiang Xia, the one with sunglasses on his head!"
"Well, it's a bit like that. โ
"The beautiful woman next to her, isn't it Cheng Xin? The one who wears sunglasses is really Jiang Xia!"
A few tourists, you and I recognized several of their identities.
The main reason is that Cheng Xin didn't do any disguise, she often showed her face before, the awards ceremony on TV and even on the Internet, the exposure during this time is not small, if anyone pays attention to these things, it is normal to recognize her.
As soon as they saw that they were recognized, Cheng Xin's two bodyguards subconsciously wanted to go forward to stop these tourists and protect Cheng Xin behind them at the same time. Xue Yan also intentionally or unintentionally helped Cheng Xin block a line of defense, and the three women cooperated very tacitly, directly putting Cheng Xin in an absolutely safe position.
Jiang Xia easily took off his sunglasses and waved at them, then put a finger to his lips and said, "Shhh โ
"Can we have a group photo?" said a girl who recognized Jiang Xia first.
"Of course. Jiang Xia agreed.
After taking a photo with them and giving them a few autographs, Jiang Xia put on his sunglasses again and led a group of people forward.
A few tourists who got the group photo and autographs were very happy, and some said: "Jiang Xia said he came to play, won't he?"
"You also believe it, you can't go anywhere to play, and you still go to the film and television city to play. went to the film and television city to play, and brought Hengying people. That's Cheng Xin, the boss of Hengying, come along, and the rest of the people must be employees of Hengying. It is estimated that he is here to step on the point, and the next movie may be filmed here. โ
"I guess so, then let's have a good stroll, and we can take it out and blow it when we go back. โ
"Yes, yes, I wanted to leave quickly, but now I have to take a good walk. โ
"Shall we follow Jiang Xia and them to have a look?"
"Don't bother people, people have jobs, it's good to get an autograph and take a group photo, don't bother others. โ
"Well, let's go shopping by ourselves, maybe we can meet again?"
They were originally going to leave after shopping, but now that they met Jiang Xia, they decided to go shopping again, and when they turned back to Jiang Xia really making a movie here, they could also go out and brag and say that they had seen it when Jiang Xia stepped on the spot, which would definitely make many people envious.
When Jiang Xia was taking photos with tourists, Cheng Xin and the others left a distance first, and Cheng Xin didn't know where to take a pair of sunglasses and put them on to cover her face. It was just now that she was recognized, so that others confirmed Jiang Xia's identity. It's just that Jiang Xia, wearing sunglasses, doesn't dare to recognize too much.
After coming back, he continued to walk forward, but in the aisle, Jiang Xia paused.
"The corridors need to be completely renovated, and the doors and windows are all glazed, that is, glass, and colored. The lighting can be more noble and mysterious, remember this, and don't forget it when the time comes. The style of the corridor, I am very happy with the drawings, try to reproduce it completely. Jiang Xia commanded.
After walking a few steps in the corridor, Jiang Xia said again: "You can hang some bead curtains in the middle of the corridor, which can be rolled up." The beaded curtains are closed at night, and only opened when people pass by. โ
Naturally, the artists are taking notes, and this is their task for the next few months.
Every room in the palace was open, and the decoration inside was still very good, but Jiang Xia didn't make any comments, after looking at one room, he quickly walked to the next room, and soon walked more than a dozen rooms. Then Jiang Xia didn't continue to go down, but turned around and went back to the fourth room he had just left.
"This room is the center point, and the center point is the queen's bedchamber. Separated by two corridors to the east is the bedroom of the eldest prince Yuanxiang. Separated by two corridors to the west is the bedroom of the second prince Yuanjie. Yuan Jie's dormitory is separated by two corridors to the north and is the dormitory of the third prince Yuan Cheng. Two corridors to the north of Yuanxiang's dormitory are pharmacies. The Emperor's Bedchamber is located directly north of the Queen's Chamber, separated by three corridors. Jiang Xia stood in the palace and said with his eyes closed. He was thinking about the floor plans he had seen, and he had recalled the architecture of several houses.
"This big house on the south side serves as the residence of the opening maid. Jiang Xia said.
When he says a word, someone over there will record it.
"Each palace must be different, and the specific situation will go back to it, the entire interior of the room needs to be renovated, and the doors and windows of the palace between several dormitories also need to be renovated. The camera may be swept at that time, except for the pharmacy, the overall style of the pharmacy should be depressing and dark. Jiang Xia continued.
After saying this, Jiang Xia closed his eyes and thought for a while and said: "I'll think of these for the time being, decorate it like this first, I will come over from time to time, and then I'll talk about what I think of." The workload is not small, and the time required is certainly not short, I hope everyone will work hard, and in the case of ensuring the quality, try to be as fast as possible, by the way, finish the decoration of the hall first, and even if it is not completed by then, you can also shoot some scenes first. โ
"Okay. The art team leader said that he remembered it.
The renovation of the palace is definitely a big project.
Jiang Xia believes in the art team leader, the renderings he makes are really good, as long as he follows the renderings, Jiang Xia believes that this big project, the artists can do a good job.
