Next chapter

The next morning, Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu went downstairs for breakfast. When going downstairs, Zhang Jingchu slipped on the stairs. Although Zhang Ran supported Zhang Jingchu in time and did not fall, her foot was still broken.

When Zhang Ran helped Zhang Jingchu into the restaurant, the men in the crew all smiled ambiguously. Neil patted Zhang Ran and persuaded, "Robin, you have to know how to be temperate!"

Zhang Jingchu's face suddenly turned red into tomatoes, and Zhang Ran said speechlessly: "Jingchu broke her foot when she went downstairs, don't think about it!"

Everyone laughed: "We didn't think about it, it's a broken foot, it's really a broken foot!"

Zhang Ran was very speechless, what I said was true, why don't you believe it?

Zhang Jingchu has no other work arrangements recently, so she started as Zhang Ran's assistant in the crew. She graduated from the Department of Directing and understands the relevant knowledge of directing, which is more than enough to be an assistant.

In the next few days, in addition to the old relationship movie channel, there were many people who didn't know each other who came to visit the class. "Time and Space Warrior" is a super blockbuster production with an investment of 120 million, and it is also an A-grade production in Hollywood, which is unprecedented in China, so everyone wants to come over and open their eyes and see how Hollywood blockbusters are made.

It is not surprising that Han Shanping, the head of China Film, came to visit the class, China Film is an investor in the film, and they invested $5 million in the film. When Harvey tore up the contract, Han Shanping talked to Zhang Ran on the phone and said that he could increase capital investment, but Zhang Ran~▼ did not agree, he didn't want to dilute his shares.

This time, Han Shanping came to visit the class not only by himself, but also with the great director Chen Kaige.

"Zhang Ran, I don't need to introduce this person, Director Chen Kaige, you must know him. As soon as the three of them met, Han Shanping took the lead in introducing Brother Chen Kai beside him.

"Director Chen. Hello! When I was studying in the past, I also made a special pull film for "Yellow Earth", and it is a great honor to meet you!" Zhang Ran doesn't particularly like Chen Kaige's movies, but after all, he is a senior, and he is still very respectful.

"I watched your "Burst Drummer", and it was a good shot!" said Chen Kaige with a smile.

After a few words of greeting, Zhang Ran invited the two to the crew: "Mr. Han." Director Chen, please come here, please"!

There are many people in the crew Nortel, and they all know Brother Chen Kai, and there are staff members who say hello to Brother Chen Kai along the way, and Brother Chen Kai also nods in return.

came to the digital workstation of the crew, Zhang Ran asked the staff to bring chairs to Chen Kaige and Han Shanping, and asked them to bring them drinks, drinking drinks and chatting at the same time.

Ordinary crew monitors are often just one. Brother Chen Kai saw that Zhang Ran had several monitors in their digital workstation, and he was very curious and asked Zhang Ran what these monitors were for.

Zhang Ran introduced to him which is the director's monitor, which is the position of the action director, which is the picture of Group B, and where are the two cameras of Group A, and then introduced him to DIT technology and related processes.

When Chen Kaige heard Zhang Ran, they could not only see the filmed footage at the scene, but also edit and color grade on the spot. Very surprised, he looked at Han Shanping and said, "Today we have opened our eyes." It's the right time!"

Han Shanping smiled slightly, put down the cup in his hand, and said seriously: "Zhang Ran, we came here today, in addition to coming to see you, we have another purpose. I'm just here to learn from you!"

Zhang Ran was stunned, Brother Chen Kai was very high in his bones, how could he learn from me, a junior. Suddenly, something came to him: "You're here for the special effects of "Boundless"?"

Han Shanping laughed and said: "You kid is simply a monkey, one guess is accurate! Didn't you open a special effects studio?" I also have experience working with Hollywood. "Wu Ji" is a magic blockbuster invested by China Film, with a large number of special effects shots, we can't afford to hire a Hollywood special effects company, only you have the ability in China!"

Chen Kaige added: "I went to Xiangjiang's Xiantao Digital to see it, and I also went to your Tiangong Chongcai to see it, to be honest, your technology is much stronger than Xiantao Digital." I've seen some of the shots you did that are at the level of a Hollywood blockbuster, and I want to work with you!"

The memory of "Wu Ji" is a well-known bad movie, and the problems are mainly in three aspects: the story is not good, the actors' performances are problematic, and the special effects are very bad. Chen Kaige later said in an interview that his only dissatisfaction with the movie was the special effects. He thought that he had been blinded by others, and when the stunt company handed over the finished film to them when it was about to be released, the effect was very bad, and he could only force the release of the film.

However, Xiantao Digital, who is in charge of special effects, is another statement, they think that director Chen Kaige does not understand the process of special effects from the early stage to the later stage, and more importantly, he has no clear concept of picture modeling, and the special effects are almost done blindly by the special effects personnel themselves.

For the statements of both sides, Zhang Ran thinks that Xiantao's statement is more reliable, many domestic directors have a wrong understanding of special effects, and think that special effects are a later thing, I finish the film, and you add effects to me according to what I say, this concept is undoubtedly very wrong!

Of course, Zhang Ran has always believed that special effects can't be done, and the commercial prospects of Chinese films are bleak. No matter how many high-scoring films are made, no matter how many international awards they get, at most they will be another France, and who can compare to the French than art films? But France is also beaten by Hollywood on its own soil, and the masters have to rely on government subsidies to make a living. Therefore, Zhang Ran thinks that it is a good thing that a big director like Chen Kaige can use special effects.

However, Chen Kaige is too conceited, he can't listen to other people's opinions, in order to avoid his company from making the special effects of smashing the signboard in the original version of "Wuji", Zhang Ran thinks it is good to say ugly words in front: "Director Chen can see the heavens and heavy colors, it is our honor, but it is particularly important to do special effects in the early stage, at the beginning, the special effects team needs to make zuòpreviz according to the director's storyboard, that is, to make a 3D animation according to the storyboard, and make the whole scene, based on the editing of the previous story version." We spent three months doing this before we started shooting, and now the result is almost the same as the 3D animation.

Storyboarding is just the first step, and then the VFX team will make something like this called Tehviz, what is this thing? It's also an animation, but this animation will describe in detail the specific content of each special effects shot, where our camera is, how you need to move it. How tall it needs to be, from how high, to how high, everything will be described very clearly, so that everyone will know how to shoot this special effects shot at a glance. During the shooting, a special effects shot was taken. The director thinks that the shot is not good, and the special effects team needs to review the shot, and if they think that the shot is okay, then it can be passed! The most important thing to do special effects is the preliminary preparation, if the preliminary preparation is not done well, and the special effects team will do it after the shooting, even if the industrial light and magic are invited, it is useless!"

After speaking, Zhang Ran asked the people of the special effects team to pass through the display screen and showed Chen Kaige and Han Shanping part of the 3D storyboard and Tehviz of "Time and Space Warrior". Then introduce them to the special effects shooting.

was chatting energetically, and the assistant director came over to inform Zhang Ran that the preparations for filming had been made and the filming could officially start. Zhang Ran said to Brother Chen Kai, and then began to give orders, while Brother Chen Kai watched with interest as Zhang Ran commanded the audience.

There was a little problem with Reeves's performance, and Zhang Ran called it off, saying that he had said it. Shooting resumes. This time Reeves' performance was perfect.

Zhang Ran watched the replay twice and asked about the situation of the other groups. No problem. He nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Brother Chen Kai and asked, "Director Chen, what do you think?"

Brother Chen Kai shook his head and said with a smile: "The shooting is very good, I don't have any opinions, don't care too much about other people's opinions as a director." To stick to your own artistic point of view, you just have to follow your own ideas. ”

Zhang Ran was just polite, nodded yes with a smile, and then announced loudly: "This shot is over, the next shot is ready!"

Time flies. By five o'clock in the afternoon, today's shooting task was completed, and Zhang Ran announced the end of work. In the evening, Zhang Ran specially set up a banquet to entertain Chen Kaige and Han Shanping, and Zhang Jingchu also went together.

During the banquet, the guests and hosts had a very happy conversation. Brother Chen Kai looked at Zhang Jingchu and said with a smile: "Jingchu, the heroine of our drama is quite suitable for you, are you interested in trying it?"

Chen Kaige is a top director in China, and the only mainland director who has won the Palme d'Or and the Golden Globe Award.

But just as she was about to speak, Zhang Ran smiled and shook her head: "Director Chen, I'm sorry, I have a play next year, and Jing Chu is the scheduled heroine, so I really can't take your play!"

Do you want to see me take off my clothes? Zhang Ran still remembers the classic lines of the heroine Allure in "Wuji", and he thinks that this kind of role is better left to Baizhi. Cecilia has a good figure, everyone likes to watch it, my Jingchu is a washboard, or keep it for yourself to appreciate, so I won't come out to show ugliness!

When Zhang Jingchu heard Zhang Ran say this, the corners of her mouth hooked upward, Chen Kaige's play and Zhang Ran's play, she must choose Zhang Ran's play, which is called the difference between intimacy and intimacy: "Thank you Director Chen, it's really a pity!"

Brother Chen Kai didn't care, Zhang Jingchu is very popular now, but he still can't compare with Cecilia Cheung, Cecilia Cheung is the first choice for the heroine in his heart, since Zhang Jingchu has no schedule, forget it.

On the afternoon of August 27, the last shot of "Time and Space Warrior" was filmed.

The rocker arm was raised high, giving a large panoramic view from mid-air, Reeves glanced at Zhou Xun, turned and walked forward, a lonely back frozen in the screen of the monitor.

"Stop!" Zhang Ran shouted, and then replayed the shot, there was no problem with the actor's performance, and then he asked the other groups about the situation, there was no problem, and the whole shot was perfect.

Zhang Ran immediately stood up and announced loudly: "This scene has passed! I announce that "Time and Space Warrior" will be completed!" After speaking, he began to applaud.

"Oh yes!" the audience erupted in cheers, followed by applause, and then the members of the various groups hugged each other.

On the one hand, China is on the other, and Hollywood on the other, after such a farewell, it is likely that there will be no more opportunities for cooperation in this life, whether there is a relationship or not, after all, after living together for more than a few months, there is some reluctance in my heart after all.

"Lee, you are a good young man, you will definitely have a great future!"

"Tom, you're great! I have time to come to Peking to play in the future, there are many places to play in Beiping!"

"It's been a pleasure to work with you, and I hope to have the opportunity to work together in the future!"

Zhang Ran was also hugging the members of the director team, and he had mixed feelings in his heart. "Time and Space Warrior" has a very special meaning for Zhang Ran. This is his first major production, zuò, and various new techniques are used in the film, which will become an invaluable experience in his film career.

During the filming process, Zhang Ran encountered a lot of difficulties and risks, but finally survived. This time he has accumulated a lot of experience, and if he is asked to shoot a big production again, it will definitely be a lot easier.

Anyway, now that the movie is finished, it must be celebrated. (To be continued.) )
