Everything is difficult at the beginning, not to mention that Wang Xiaohu entered the mainland as a Hong Kong native to make films, and there are quite a lot of difficulties to encounter, first of all, he needs to think twice about every procedure and plan, if this matter touches the bottom limit of Lao Zhao and others, then another method must be used to achieve the goal, through these two days of contact, Wang Xiaohu has determined that Lao Zhao's identity is not simple, almost all sources are reported and conveyed through this person, and the PLA soldiers also have considerable respect for Lao Zhao. 【】

"What are these?" Lao Zhao pointed to a few boxes of earthquake-proof manuals in Wang Xiaohu's tent and asked.

"These are shock protection manuals." Wang Xiaohu took out a book from the middle and looked at it and said: "You know that disaster movies like ours must understand this, and a movie is not just for the director to understand, but also for the crew and all the actors to understand the relevant content." ”

"Filming an earthquake disaster film, if the extras don't understand the knowledge of earthquake prevention and disaster relief, it will be a waste of everyone's time." Wang Xiaohu smiled and continued to explain: "So I decided to send these pamphlets to each recruited extras from tomorrow, so that they can have a general idea first, and then arrange a few rehearsals. ”

Lao Zhao nodded and said no more, after all, Wang Xiaohu's request was decent, but he still put one of the shockproof manuals in his pocket and took it away. Wang Xiaohu smiled again after seeing it, and said in his heart that the people of this year are really cute, and they have to make a small report on everything, but fortunately, it is much more convenient to communicate with the above now, and it is much faster than turning a few corners through President Liang.

"According to historical records, the maximum time of an earthquake is less than 1 minute, sometimes only a dozen seconds, so the safety of yourself and your family should be taken into account during an earthquake. First, take shelter under a sturdy table or bed with a low center of gravity and hold on tightly to the table or legs. ”

"What if I don't have a sturdy bed or table at home?"

This is the question raised by an extras on July 8, after the crew of "Shocking" built a set in the middle of Tangshan and Qinglong, Wang Xiaohu told dozens of extras invited from Qingshan and Tangshan about the earthquake prevention measures.

Wang Xiaohu smiled on the stage and said: "If there is nothing around you to avoid at this time, it is very simple, see that there is no corner, squat in the triangle, and find a pillow with both hands to protect your head"

Dozens of extras nodded their heads to indicate that they knew, Wang Xiaohu continued, and all morning, he was teaching the actors according to the earthquake prevention manual he had sorted out, and at the same time, in order not to arouse the suspicion of the bodyguards, he would intersperse several interactive links about filming. When the salary was paid in the afternoon, Wang Xiaohu used the food stamps exchanged in US dollars and Hong Kong dollars to distribute to the extras, and at the same time did not forget to stuff a few pamphlets into each actor. "Go back and take a look with your family, this thing is in good case, and if you think it's useless, you can make paper to wipe your butt."

"It's a pity that this paper wipes the ass, it's so beautifully printed." One of the crowd laughed.

"That means your ass is expensive!" Wang Xiaohu said, which immediately caused many people to laugh.

In the distance, the bodyguards responsible for supervising Wang Xiaohu's movements were in a row, and one of the bodyguards said to Lao Zhao: "Why don't you see that the capitalist from Hong Kong doesn't look like a counter-revolutionary, as if he is a philanthropist. ”

"Shut up! Now the capitalists who will put a label on the door of the head for you to recognize. Lao Zhao snorted and said: "Don't forget our mission, as long as he doesn't show counter-revolutionary behavior, let them toss." ”

Wang Xiaohu behaved very calmly, but in fact, he was anxious in his heart, but seeing that there were still 20 days before the human tragedy was about to be staged, the scheduled food and machinery were not in place, and the three film companies did not come to meet, so let Lao Tzu sing a one-man show, how can he sing in a few days!

Not only was he anxious, but the 30 dragon and tiger martial artists who came with him were also anxious, and Li Hanwei complained to Wang Xiaohu many times: "Brother Tiger, are we here to make a movie, how do I feel that we are here to squat in prison, you see that our every move is under the surveillance of others, how uncomfortable." ”

"Bear with me, believe me, as long as we hold on for another 20 days, our treatment will improve." Wang Xiaohu patted them on the shoulder, comforted them one by one, and did ideological mobilization work

At the same time, the relevant departments of Hebei region held a three-day earthquake meeting in Chengde, the theme of the meeting was to strengthen the management of various places, study the State Council Document No. 69, and discuss how to reasonably refute the rumors of the recent rumors of the "earthquake storm", everyone racked their brains for a long time, some people think that such a thing must be reported in time, but there are also people who immediately correct, if there is no earthquake after the alarm, then how to explain to the central government to the local people, will not cause chaos?

When everyone had a headache, Wang Qingchun, a representative of Qinglong County, raised his hand and said: "Recently, at the junction of our county and Tangshan City, a group of people have come to make movies, which seem to be earthquake-themed movies that the above agreed to shoot. ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of all the leading groups present immediately lit up, and someone immediately clapped their hands and said: "The proposal put forward by Qinglong County is very good, so it has been decided, and I will send someone to contact them when I go back." A week later, the leaders of the National Earthquake Administration held a special meeting on earthquakes in Tangshan, and we could submit this proposal. ”

History is quietly changing at this moment, and the intervention of Wang Xiaohu, a reborn, has given the Hebei leadership team, which had a headache about how to deal with the "earthquake turmoil", find a good reason, or an "excuse".

On July 13th, the three film studio teams of Bayi, Shanghai, and Changchun finally felt cold, and they came with all kinds of machinery that Wang Xiaohu needed, with a wide variety, but each type of machinery will not exceed 5 pieces, of course, all this cost is counted on Wang Xiaohu's head. Wang Xiaohu doesn't have the slightest opinion on this, who makes things cheap in China at this time.

Wang Xiaohu convened a meeting of the three responsible persons, "Now that the staff has all arrived, let me talk about our shooting plan for the next half month, the first thing to shoot is a strong earthquake somewhere, and the plot of our People's Liberation Army stationed nearby being ordered to rush to the disaster area, the shooting time is mainly concentrated in the period of 2:30 a.m. - 5 o'clock in the morning, and the preliminary plan of the shooting scene has three categories, namely the headquarters, roads, communications, rivers, and transportation machinery transfers."

Wang Xiaohu said that he was sprinkled, and there was no stammering in the middle, which he had planned during this period of time, and the content of the speech was very different from the earliest script, but it was in line with the tone of the main theme, which made the heads of the three film companies amazed in their hearts, they are also filmmakers, why are Hong Kong people moving forward faster than in China, in addition to the big factors of the political environment, they are more advanced than China in terms of shooting plans, you see that this movie has not yet started shooting, People's shooting plans are listed in detail, and they are specific to the expressions of every shot and every character, this thing is knowledge, if people don't say it, you will never learn it.

"Before that, we have to make a lot of preparations, first of all, we must train all the PLA soldiers, and then conduct appropriate rehearsals, so as to reflect the heroic momentum of our PLA." Wang Xiaohu paused at this point and said to Lao Zhao: "So this matter still needs Comrade Zhao's cooperation, and in addition, you will play the role of the temporary commander of the earthquake scene in the film." ”

Wang Xiaohu doesn't know what Lao Zhao's name is, in short, he feels that this character can shock these 200 People's Liberation Army, and it shouldn't be a problem for him to play the earthquake commander in the film, after all, he is an outsider in the eyes of the domestic group.

Lao Zhao thought about it, there was no expression on his face, looked at Wang Xiaohu's sincere eyes, and nodded after a long time.

In this way, the most critical part of Plan B arranged by Wang Xiaohu has been put in place, and the rest is to start training under the guise of filming. It's just that he hasn't officially started training yet, and early the next morning, Lao Zhao came to the door with a few people.

"Comrade Xiao Wang, is it?" The person who came was very polite, and when they met, they held Wang Xiaohu's hand tightly and said: "I am Wang Qingchun from Qinglong County, thank you for your support of our county's earthquake prevention work, these are the heads of several nearby county-level cities, we are here today."

Wang Xiaohu listened carefully, and after listening, he suddenly laughed in his heart, he was really sleepy and someone sent a pillow, he had a headache at the earliest, how to popularize the knowledge of earthquake prevention, and now it's okay, people have taken the initiative to learn from the experience, and they are very cooperative with the crew's shooting, saying that the main thing is not to delay production, and the local people are willing to take turns to be extras.

To put it bluntly, Wang Xiaohu is regarded as a local tyrant and inferior gentry, who let this girl come to give free classes to the masses this week and send food stamps, several nearby counties are greedy, but it is not easy to express it clearly, so he used this excuse, and at the same time, Wang Xiaohu can also clearly feel that he may be suspected of carrying the black pot this time.

However, in the eyes of others, it is a black pot, but Wang Xiaohu does not think it, because he does know that there was a major earthquake in Tangshan on July 28, and Tangshan is only the epicenter, and the entire North China region is shrouded in the terrifying shadow of the earthquake.

I know that many people feel that the Tangshan earthquake is too sensitive, and some of the things I wrote are taken for granted, and even the YY component is very large, but I have designed this plot for a long time, and it doesn't feel unreasonable, if it causes dissatisfaction among some readers, I can only say sorry.
