Chapter 75: Framing Zamboanga

On Monday, after morning work and breakfast, Zhou Yi took his sister to the company's headquarters for a meeting. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Tang Yan doesn't want to go, she usually has to practice, study, do homework, and go to the crew to dub, what's the use of having a meeting? She is young and knowledgeable, she can't speak, she can only sit dry, be a beautiful vase in the conference room, it is better for Xi Wei to serve tea and pour water, is it interesting?

But Zhou Yi still had to take her.

Zhou Yi told his sister that being able to participate in company meetings and crew meetings is a reflection of the status of an artist. You are the leader of Zhengdong, how can you not go to a meeting? Look at the club meeting, the younger brother can't speak, but participation is victory, and the emphasis is on participation.

Tang Yan was very happy, obviously the saying of "being in charge" satisfied her, and she happily accompanied her brother.

Zhou Yi understands psychology and knows how to make his sister happy.

If you want her to be obedient, it is not okay to blindly discipline harshly, you must grasp the psychology of girls.

Coax her to be happy, and she will naturally be obedient.

Tang Yan didn't know that her brother still had such strange ideas.

Anyway, it's good to be happy.

When I came to the company, it was past eight o'clock in the morning, and Xi Wei took Zhou Yi's brothers and sisters directly to the conference room. Zhuo Qinglian had already arrived early, and Director Zhao and they were also there, they all came quite early, and they wanted to have a meeting early. Zhou Yi also has to go to the crew for dubbing, he is very busy with work, and the meeting starts early and ends early. Tang Yan still sat beside Zhou Yi honestly, with only eyes and ears, not a mouth.

The little girl has the posture of a meeting recorder, but unfortunately she can't remember anything.

She has a specialization in the art industry, and she can recite ten blacks fluently, but she can't do shorthand.

In order to maintain her image, she has to stand tall and pull her back and sit upright, so that people can know at a glance that she is very professional, and she is a good material for Hua Dan, but she can't make any "Ge You paralysis" or "Baguio sitting", and the posture is ugly. If that kind of image is seen by the physical teacher of the academy, it must be slapped in the face. These manners must be maintained at ordinary times, and habits become natural in order to have a training effect.

The little girl sat for an hour, and it was also full of hard work.

The people present, in addition to the senior executives of the crew, company executives, including Manager Zheng, also came. When you go to the Philippines to shoot exterior scenes, you must be accompanied by the company's senior management to escort you, and it is impossible to let the crew go directly.

Zhuo Qinglian first introduced to Zhou Yi a military commander Wang (Min) De, who was specially dispatched by the military commander to help in the crew and was responsible for professional guidance. With this kind of expert guidance, many details of the film can be shot more realistically, more meticulously, and more professionally.

Zhou Yi had already noticed this middle-aged expert with a serious face and a bit of a big pie face, and there was only this stranger in the conference room, which was very conspicuous. This expert also wore gold-wire glasses, which added a bit of scholarly temperament, at least a little less cold and majestic in his face.

Under Zhuo Qinglian's introduction, the two shook hands with each other and exchanged a few words of warm greetings.

Zhou Yi expressed his gratitude to Mr. Wang (Min) De for coming to the crew to help.

Wang (Min) De is very polite, knows who Zhou Yi is, and is willing to serve.

This is his job, it's a very easy job, and there is a decent salary to be paid, which is very good.

Everyone had a great time.

In the upper play, there are military experts to help train Zhou Yi's etiquette, and military experts to help build Chongxiao Tower, and military experts come to help guide various professional details of rescuing hostages, and shoot with the group. What is the background of due east, all the top management of due east knows it.

This is simply undisguised as a red fruit.

Next, we have a formal meeting.

Director Zhao will first introduce the situation in detail.

Listen to him say that the opening plot in "Ace vs. Ace" is mainly to highlight the ability and charm of the male protagonist, and more importantly, to show the protagonist's uninhibited character of daring to take risks and break conventions, and for the later plot, he took the risk of kidnapping the CIA high-level and laying the groundwork for his behavior of clearing his name. Then, this plot must be filmed well, filmed wonderfully, and filmed with a sense of realism.

If you want to shoot realistically, you have to be careful when choosing locations.

If the scene is small, and if the scene is fake, there will be no such effect.

The crew was indeed ready to shoot directly overseas, choosing Zamboanga in the Philippines.

Director Zhao said that there is our overseas concession in China, there are many Chinese, there are the largest Chinese cities and communities in the Philippines, and Zamboanga International Airport, there are direct flights, which is very convenient. In terms of location selection, it is also very good.

With its former Spanish architecture, beautiful beaches, and the Philippines' own style, it is the center of brass and copper products of the Moro people, a distribution center for shells, and an important fishing base. It is an international transshipment port, exporting rubber, pearls, coconuts, high-quality hardwoods, fish, hemp and fruits, and importing rice.

With such distinct scenery and features, it's no problem to shoot exterior scenes.

In particular, there is also a naval port where overseas troops are stationed, a special response formation is stationed all year round, and it is also one of the overseas rotation training places for the Marine Corps.

Director Zhao said a lot, very detailed, hoping to get high-level support.

Zhou Yi was suspicious: "I remember that there have been anti-government armed conflicts and hostage-taking incidents in Zamboanga in the Philippines before. He remembered some things from the past, and learned these classic cases of rescuing hostages in the military youth group.

Director Zhao and they looked at Wang (Min) De.

Wang (Min) De, an expert on military command, took the initiative to say: "That's the case, but it has been suppressed by us a long time ago, and there is no danger now." The humanitarian crisis was secretly planned by the CIA, and they had remnants of their forces in the Philippines, which was caused by historical reasons, but was quickly dismantled by our heavy blows. As everyone knows, the Americans themselves do not have any overseas colonies, and as the saying goes, they are envious, jealous, and hateful, so they have always liked to attack our colonies on human rights issues and point fingers, which is the consistent practice of the US government, but it is useless. Now that the Moro National Liberation Front has collapsed and disintegrated, the remnants will either be wiped out or co-opted, and there will be no longer any threat. ”

Zhou Yi nodded.

Since Wang (Min) De dared to guarantee this, there was no danger.

Zhuo Qinglian also explained: "There is a garrison there, and safety must be guaranteed. Our military experts will also go with us. As for the hostage-taking incident mentioned that year, it was also successfully resolved by our overseas garrisons, and it was also credited with the behind-the-scenes cooperation of our military commanders. ”

Wang (Min) De said: "It is true. That's why I suggested that it would be very appropriate to shoot in Zamboanga. ”

It turned out that he came up with the idea.

Zhou Yi knew that like Assistant Director Liao Zhenyu, it was impossible for them to think of going to Zamboanga to film, and they must have been behind-the-scenes guidance by military experts.

This is not a blind trick, it is indeed feasible.

There was a lot of talk about it, and they all felt that it could be done.

Zhou Yi said: "The opening plot wants to imitate the Philippine hostage crisis? ”

Director Zhao nodded and said, "That's right." Mr. Wang provided our crew with relevant information about the hostage crisis that year, and I have seen it and really think it is very good. The writing team and I redesigned the concept and decided to mimic the Filipino hostage incident in the opening film. After all, our film is a highly realistic shooting style, and if more real-life cases are added, it will appear more realistic and believable. ”

Zhou Yi nodded, understanding this truth.

In the previous life, the old work was a super acting performance with a solid and rigorous realistic style, strong dialogue, exciting, very good, very dramatic tension and shocking performance. In this world, it has been changed to a Chinese movie, but the style is the same, which is the guarantee of the film's high reputation and increased sales.

Director Zhao can understand this, and obviously has a foundation for success.

At this time, Director Zhao continued: "Yousheng Entertainment Group once invested heavily in building an overseas filming base in Zamboanga, which is a large-scale film and television city, which can provide a lot of help to the crew. When many domestic crews shoot overseas location scenes, they often choose to shoot there. There are a variety of shooting spots that are unique to overseas influences. Western Australia also has a film and television city that we invest in, but it is too far away, and we don't need to travel far to shoot there, just shoot in the Philippines at our doorstep. ”

Director Zhao represents the opinions of the top management of the crew, and it seems that they must have been well thought out.

However, Zhou Yi still had some doubts in his heart, and said: "As the saying goes, poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people. I have heard that the law and order in the Philippines is not very good sometimes, especially when gangs are rampant and there are many gangs. Our crew will be fine! ”

This is completely influenced by the experience of a previous life, and I am worried that there will be a local gang to go to the crew to collect protection money.

In this case, the level of Jackie Chan in the previous life is unavoidable and cannot be ignored.

Zhou Yi has always been cautious, and sometimes it is inevitable to think too much, but it is better than not thinking about it. After the accident, make up for the loss, that is not Zhou Yi's style of doing things, you have to think about everything in front, take precautions, and tighten your own fence. He knows that the situation in this world is different, China is the world's first military power, borrowing a hundred dares from the Philippines, it does not dare to exclude China, it can only be honest as a little brother, just like in the previous life, did it dare to exclude the United States?

However, the king of Hades is good to see, the little ghosts are difficult, and the poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, this is the reason.

Zhou Yi didn't want the crew to cause trouble.

Director Zhao and the others looked at Wang (Min) De again.

They hadn't thought about this kind of thing beforehand, and it seemed that the boss was cautious.

After all, Zhengdong is not one of the six major companies in China, but a second-tier company, and its power is not strong enough, so no one may bully it, so there is no harm in thinking about it. No one takes the initiative to provoke you in China, but when you go abroad to film, it's different, it may not be troublesome, be cautious!

Wang (Min) De supported the gold-wire glasses he was wearing, and said with a smile: "Zhou Yi is thoughtful and considerate for the sake of the crew, but this is too much to worry about." If you think about it, the status of our Chinese overseas is superior, and there is a powerful army behind us, who dares to disobey! Those gangs usually bully their neighbors and oppress their own people, how dare they provoke the Chinese, isn't that death? That unobtrusive must have been cleaned. Especially in our concession, the law and order has always been very good, and the local rich and high-level officials in the Philippines are scrambling to move in, and no one dares to mess around. In particular, we have law enforcement and judicial powers over those indigenous Filipinos, and what do the riot police do? In prison, flogging can be used on indigenous Filipinos to promote their integration into civilized society, help them evolve, and correct bad habits. They do not have the human right to immunity from corporal punishment. ”

Zhou Yi smiled, of course he understood this.

Just like in the previous life of the Hong Kong and British periods, those Hong Kong gangs were at most bullying their compatriots, did they dare to provoke the British?

As it says in a certain movie, do you have the courage to go to HSBC to collect protection money?

Think back then, when the British gentlemen ruled India, they were the first to invent "cannon execution" torture! Are you afraid?

It's just that he later put on a coat of civilization.

In the previous life, Hong Kong people naturally did not have brain cramps to provoke a brutal British gentleman.

The Hong Kong "gentry" and the British "gentleman" are two completely different species!

At this time, Wang (Min) De pursed his lips and continued: "Those Filipino natives are completely underevolved species. Don't look down on them too much! Those dwarf mules can't even get a decent red light district, they don't have the economic acumen to open a casino, and in the end they want to make money and want to go crazy, so they just start a Filipino maid business, there are no decent women in the country, it's always okay to be a maid, train it, and do the same. However, their Filipino maid business is doing very well, and it is already a world-famous brand product, forming a complete set of foreign exchange earning industry chain, which can be regarded as the national business card of the Philippines. ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Zhou Yi could tell that this Mr. Wang (Min) De was a Chinese chauvinist through and through.

However, Zhou Yi had expected this.

With Zhou Yi's meticulous observation after strict training in the military command, he had long seen the blood ring of the Martyrs' Society worn on the middle finger of Wang (Min) De's left hand, which was the symbol of the Martyrs' Association "I recommend Xuanyuan with my blood", and it was obvious that he was a backbone member of the Martyrs' Association when he was in college. The Martyrs' Association was born in the National University of Defense Technology, and is the No. 1 large-scale club in Chinese universities, and has been competing with the Yanhuang Awakening Club of Yan University.

The scale of this kind of society is much stronger than Yanying's Red Alert Society.

It is estimated that Wang (Min) De received strict training from the military command with the background of the Martyrs' Association during his college years, and after graduation, he successfully joined the military command.

As for whether it is a civilian or a military position, it is not clear.

There are some situations that don't need to be introduced by Zhuo Qinglian, Zhou Yi can roughly guess them by himself. This kind of person is in his bones the chauvinism of a great power and the hegemonism of China, and it is impossible to look at the indigenous Filipinos in his eyes. Some disgruntled foreigners call them chauvin pigs, just like some Americans called white-skinned pigs in previous lives, but there are also many people in the country who like them and call them chauvin bears.

Anyway, with this kind of person following the crew, Zhou Yi is naturally relieved.
