When Zhang Ran was about to go out, he remembered that there was a question he forgot yesterday, today's opening ceremony was held in front of the earthquake monument, and there would be a ceremony to lay flower baskets and pay silent tribute to the earthquake victims. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info should not be dressed too brightly for this occasion, black or plain should be worn.

Wang Luodan: They should understand this, after all, they have experienced life in Tangshan for a few months, and they should have this understanding. Zhang Ran was worried about a few students in his class, especially Yang Fan, who were babbling all day long. If they appeared on such a serious occasion in fancy dress, it would be a shame.

However, when Zhang Ran knocked on the girl's bedroom and saw Yang Fan in front of him, he was slightly stunned, Yang Fan was wearing a black T-shirt, and then looked at other girls, Yuan Shanshan, Lin Xiaolu and Jiao Junyan were also black T-shirts. Zhang Ran laughed, although these children usually babble, they are actually very sensible.

Yang Mi saw Zhang Ran's smile, and pretended to be vigilant and said, "Xiao Ranran, why are you laughing so obscenely? Tell you, don't beat my idea!"

Zhang Ran slapped Yang Fan on the head: "I'll beat you a big-headed ghost!"

Leaving the girls' room, Zhang Ran knocked on the room of the boys in the class again, and the boys were all dressed in black. Next, Zhang Ran came to Song Zhuer's room again and found that her mother also changed her into a black dress, and it seemed that everyone was paying attention to this problem.

When he came to the ruins park, Zhang Ran found that the media reporters present were no exception, basically wearing plain colors, and there were no brightly colored clothes in the entire ruins park.

Under the gloomy sky, the earthquake monument square is enveloped in a solemn atmosphere. There was no music or posters at the scene, only a plaque with white characters on a black background "Tangshan Earthquake Launching Ceremony", which showed people that today was different.

When Jin Wei, the host of the movie channel, announced the official start of the opening ceremony, all the crew first laid flower baskets to the earthquake monument and paid three minutes of silence to the 240,000 compatriots who died in the earthquake.

Next, Chen Guoying, mayor of Tangshan City, delivered a speech, and then Han Shanping said at the scene that he believed that under the leadership of director Zhang Ran, "Tangshan Earthquake" would be filmed successfully.

When Zhang Ran spoke, he didn't say much, but simply said: "We must live up to our mission, make every effort to do a good job in the filming of the movie, and historically reproduce the great Tangshan earthquake-resistant spirit forged by the heroic Tangshan people!"

In the afternoon, Zhang Ran led the main creators to attend the first press conference after the launch of "Tangshan Earthquake". At the start-up ceremony in the morning, Zhang Ran and they did not accept an interview, so the media reporters were gearing up, ready with all kinds of questions, waiting to ask questions to the main creator of the crew.

"Tangshan Earthquake" itself is a theme of national concern, and it is directed by Zhang Ran himself, in terms of attention, it is definitely punching Feng Xiaogang and kicking Zhang Yimou. The whole press conference simply made the relevant domestic reporters ready to move.

The hall of this press conference is very large, larger than the hall where Zhang Ran thought the press conference would be held. Even so, the whole scene was still packed, which shows everyone's attention to this movie.

The press conference was still hosted by Jin Wei, and after the speech of the Propaganda Minister of Tangshan City, Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu, the main creators, were invited to the stage. Zhang Ran, as the director, naturally sat in the middle, Zhang Jingchu on the left, Wang Luodan on the right, and the other actors were arranged in order according to the importance of the role.

Zhang Ran briefly introduced the relationship between the characters in the play, Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu played a couple, but after the earthquake, the character played by Zhang Ran died; they had a pair of children, the daughter was played by Song Zhuer, and the son was played by a small actor in Tangshan, the role was relatively small, but it was very important; Ji Chen and Wang Luodan played Zhang Ran's younger siblings, Cao Bingkun played Wang Luodan's husband; Hu Jun played the driver of the car where Zhang Jingchu went home.

After the actors finished introducing themselves, Jin Wei threw a question to Zhang Ran: "Director Zhang, I heard that in order to make this movie, a set of the most advanced seismic instruments was imported from Germany, can you introduce us to this set of equipment?"

Zhang Ran knew that Jin Wei threw this question to himself just to introduce himself to the special effects of the movie, which is one of the biggest highlights of the movie. He smiled at Jin Wei and said: "First of all, I want to explain that although there are many foreign teams involved in the special effects of this movie, it is our own Chinese team that really plays a leading role." This movie is different from "Time and Space Warriors", "Time and Space Warriors" led the special effects of the Australian team, and at that time, our technology was too far behind, so we could only help others. After several years of accumulation, we now have the ability to do such a big project on our own. The vibration platform you mentioned was actually designed by ourselves, but the materials were imported, and then we asked Tangsteel's master to help weld and assemble it.

The role of this vibration platform is like this, in the past, when filming earthquake scenes, I basically relied on the performance of the actors to express the feeling of shaking, but the effect was not very real, and the biggest pursuit of our film was reality, so the special effects team designed the vibration platform. A few days ago, the actors of the crew also went to try it. ”

Zhang Ran pointed at Hu Jun and said, "Hu Jun went to try, when he stood on the vibration platform, after starting, he was shaken to the ground in a few clicks, and he couldn't stand up, and the whole effect was very close to the state of the real earthquake." The movie "Tangshan Earthquake" is very difficult to make, and the most difficult part is the special effects. The difficulty of this special effect is that it has to simulate a real earthquake, which is particularly difficult to do. In fact, the kind of Hollywood blockbuster when the sky collapses, a building collapses, and that kind is not so difficult. I can say that this film is the highest level that the Chinese film industry can achieve at the moment, and it may change the perception of Chinese films in China. Maybe it can change the world's perception of Chinese films!"

Soon it entered the stage of interviews that reporters liked to see, and reporters became enthusiastic and rushed to ask questions.

Zhang Jingchu is the female number one in the movie, and a reporter first asked her: "Jingchu, we all know that you are not married, let alone have children. But this time I have to play the role of a mother of two children in the play, do you think it is a challenge?"

Zhang Jingchu seemed quite confident: "This role is not a challenge for me, but it allows me to release my understanding of my mother, you may not know me, in fact, I am a very maternal person." ”

As she spoke, Zhang Jingchu stretched out her hand to Zhang Ran under the table, and Zhang Ran shook her hand with a smile.

Immediately, a reporter threw a question to Zhang Ran: "Director Zhang, when the film was launched at the beginning of the year, you said that the movie would start at the end of July, what was the reason for the resignation in September?"

Zhang Ran explained: "At the beginning of July, we got a new 4K camera and shot it with a 4K camera, and this film will be the first 4K film in the world. Maybe you don't understand what the concept of 4K is, let me give you a simple example, which is equivalent to the difference between VCD and DVD screen, the picture definition is very different. With this camera, many of the previous solutions were no longer available, so it was postponed for more than a month. But I think it's worth it, we invested 300 million in this film, and it is almost impossible to recover the cost domestically, and the performance overseas is very important. It's just that foreign language films are difficult to sell overseas, and not many people overseas know about the Tangshan earthquake, so if a movie wants to be released overseas, you must have a publicity point, and the world's first 4K movie is a good publicity point. ”

A reporter asked: "You just said that there are a lot of special effects in the movie, which is difficult to do, and you also said that "Tangshan Earthquake" is a new height in China's film industry, so is this movie a Hollywood-style disaster movie?"

Zhang Ran felt that the reporter's understanding was wrong, and corrected: "We definitely can't shoot like a Hollywood disaster movie, if we let Hollywood make it, the movie will probably look like this." The male protagonist is a researcher at the National Earthquake Administration, responsible for earthquake research. He has a happy family, a beautiful wife, and a pair of lovely children. Half a year before the earthquake, the actor determined that there would be a major earthquake of magnitude 7 or higher in Tangshan at the end of July through observation. The actor realized that this matter was dangerous, so he made a detailed analysis and reported it to his superiors.

However, due to the previous forecast of the earthquake, there were a lot of riots, and the leader in charge sent the actor's report back, and asked the actor not to study it anymore. But the actor didn't listen, and overstepped the level to report the incident. This angered the supervisor, and he not only suspended the actor's position, but also transferred him to the field.

On the eve of the earthquake, various seismic data indicated that a major earthquake was coming, and the actor couldn't sit still, so he borrowed a car and prepared to go back to the city to find his wife and children. But as soon as he entered the city, a great earthquake struck, and the earth shook and the heavens cracked. The actor frantically dodges the collapse of the building, the cracks in the ground, and dangers along the way. In the end, the actor relied on his extraordinary skills to avoid waves of danger and rushed home.

However, the most terrible thing happened, his home had collapsed and was in ruins. The male protagonist was about to collapse, pounding the ground in pain. At this moment, the cry of his son came from underground. It turned out that the wife and children relied on the earthquake knowledge taught by the male protagonist to hide in the corner when the earthquake happened, and they did not die. The actor was excited and began to dig desperately, and the rescue team also rushed to help after knowing it, and everyone dug together to save people. After arduous excavation, the hero's wife and two children were rescued, and the whole scene burst into applause and cheers. Hollywood probably shoots like this, but if "Tangshan Earthquake" is filmed like this, can you accept it?"

The reporters present were dumbfounded, if they really want Hollywood to shoot it, I'm afraid it's true, but is this still the extremely tragic Tangshan earthquake?

Zhang Ran smiled, and then said seriously: "Hollywood disaster movies are not too difficult for me, but if "Tangshan Earthquake" is filmed like that, don't say that the audience can't spare me, and even I can't forgive myself." A few months ago, when I was in Tangshan, I asked some elderly people who had experienced a major earthquake and asked them how they thought the film should be made. Almost all people have only one requirement, to be real, to be real. An uncle said to me that he told the truth, not that the story in it should tell all their experiences, as long as they can grasp one person and one thing, and conform to the truth, it is enough, so the biggest pursuit of our film is truth. ”

Although Zhang Ran had made the matter very clear, the title given by the media the next day was still exaggerated: "Zhang Ran: "Tangshan Earthquake" is more real than Hollywood blockbusters" and "Zhang Ran fiercely criticized Hollywood's fake special effects".

Looking at the report in his hand, Zhang Ran was very speechless, this group of undisciplined media, when did I criticize Hollywood? He stuffed the newspaper into the trash can, and then raised his voice and said: " Let's stop, let me say something, today our drama will officially start filming, we have a lot of extras in this drama, they are basically from Tangshan, many of them have had the experience of family members dying or surviving the earthquake, they are lucky to be able to participate in this movie, so, if a scene passes, everyone must applaud, don't pity the applause!"
