Shanghai Indoor Stadium, also known as Shanghai Grand Stage, is a unique scenery in the downtown area of Shanghai!

The venue is located in the southwest of Shanghai, opposite the famous Huating Hotel. With more than 10,000 seats, it is currently the first gymnasium in China to be completed with a theater-style design!

The reason why this stadium is a unique scenery is because the main function of this stadium - the basketball court is given to the citizens of Shanghai.

In December 2001, it was the time when the domestic CBA (Chinese Professional Men's Basketball League) season was burning.

Since the start of the game in 1995, the CBA has been fighting for more than ten years...... If you want to say that the season was the hottest in that season, the 2001-2002 season was definitely the first choice!

Because just this season, the CBA ushered in the rise of a dynasty; Also because of this season, the Chinese men's basketball community has cultivated an oriental giant who will surprise the world basketball in the next 9 years - Yao Ming!!

However, these are things that are extremely far from reality! But one thing I have to admit is that the current Shanghai Gymnasium has become the most beloved paradise in the hearts of major basketball fans in China!

The new season has only started a few rounds, but with a giant like 2.26 meters tall - Yao Ming's Shanghai Oriental Sharks team, but they have won all the way!

This makes the citizens of Shanghai love this blessed land of basketball in their hearts!

Naturally, in this rich and greasy basketball atmosphere. Shanghai Huayi Company artist Qi Lei's new TV series "Basketball Fire" is going to shoot the most important story scene of the show in this basketball blessed land......

That's a great thing!

……

On December 19, 2001, on Christmas Eve, the Shanghai Gymnasium was full of people!

That's because this is the time for the Shanghai Oriental Sharks to practice hard for the Christmas game in a few days!

However, there was a little accident in the gymnasium today......

To be precise, at this time, in addition to all the players and coaching staff of the Shanghai team, they are training in the stadium. There were dozens of people sitting in the audience on the sidelines, and they were busy arranging another equally important thing.

Qi Lei is one of the people who are busy working on the sidelines! …… Or to be precise, the crew of Shanghai Huayi's "Basketball Fire" is busy on the sidelines, and the next basketball team will start filming after the training of the basketball team!

At this point, everyone must be very curious why Qi Lei and others can appear in the gymnasium that has been completely closed to the outside world! Although Qi Lei and the others were busy with business at this time and were not in the mood to pay special attention, the training of these professional basketball giants on the court was coming......

But to be able to appear on the side of the court at such an important time, the energy of the crew of "Basketball Fire" is not small!

Of course, the reason why this can be done is largely due to the results obtained by Huayi Company in its dealings with the National Basketball Association and the Shanghai Basketball Association!

As I have said before, the filming of "Basketball Fire" was approved by the National Basketball Association and the Shanghai Local Basketball Association. There will be a few scenes that will be filmed without affecting the normal play and training of the football game and the team.

And Qi Lei took this opportunity to the first climax point at the beginning of the new season - around the Christmas War, to shoot the game scenes related to his "Basketball Fire".

“…… Okay, that's all for now! Now let's take our seats, and remember that we only have two hours to spare at noon. So today, I have to get rid of everyone who can cooperate a lot, and try to finish the shooting early and finish early to watch our team star training! Qi Lei did the final mobilization. …,

"Roaring ......" Because this is the exclusive training time for the big men in the field, after listening to Qi Lei's mobilization words, all the members of the "Basket" crew just murmured in response.

After about half an hour, it was already noon.

Under the coach's "liberation" order, the players of the Shanghai basketball team finally ended this morning's training and slowly walked out of the venue to have lunch!

When the last player left, Qi Lei stood up with a megaphone and shouted: "Okay guys, it's our turn to work!" Come on......"

"Roar!! ......" It was only then that the members of the crew dared to respond loudly to Qi Lei.

So, after a group of professional players went to the basketball court, a group of professional film and television practitioners arrived!

Perhaps because many of the crew members were locals, they quickly entered a state of high efficiency after starting work.

In less than half an hour, things on the sidelines such as cameras, mirrors, shooting tracks, actors' makeup, etc., were all done by the staff in an orderly manner!

Because in this scene, the actors are often wearing sportswear, and they appear in water and sweat. So it's not a very difficult task for the makeup team to do the makeup for the actors!

Then, it's time to start filming the main scene!

What we are going to shoot today is a basketball matchup, which is after Yang Guang, the character played by Qi Lei in the play, has become an excellent college basketball player and team after a series of previous story developments.

With the story background that they came to participate in the National College Men's Basketball Tournament, they came to play against their first opponent, the Army Wolves from the Military Academy, such a scene of game shooting!

……

"Okay, everyone is ready...... Let's go! After waiting for a qiē to be ready, Qi Lei stood on the court in a basketball uniform and said to the assistant on the sidelines.

Soon, the field manager walked up to the camera with the boot card and shouted: "The 32nd basketball duel scene of Episode 8 of "Basketball Fire", the first time the shooting starts countdown 3, 2, 1, action!" ”

With the "snap" of the boot card, this scene of "Basketball Fire" began to really stage the intense work of filming!

I saw that on the field, Qi Lei first held the ball and dribbled across the half court, and then was intercepted by the opposing player.

On the sidelines, the camera rack was followed by the photographer along the slide all the way to the Sleigh, shooting at a distance of about 3 meters.

On the other side, another group of camera extensions were also filming related roles in front of several artists in the sideline rest area at the same time.

The head coach W played by Lin Chiling is wearing a women's suit with deep basket stripes, standing on the sidelines with a dignified demeanor, indifferently holding his hands on his chest and looking at the court.

The team's physical fitness coach played by Li Bingbing and Yang Mi, who played the role of the team's manager, sat at the table next to them, holding props such as a second counter and paper and pen, and were also silently watching the field.

From the camera lens, it can be seen that both of them look slightly nervous but with a sense of anticipation. It makes people look really a little bit, the charm of the characters in the play when they work!

Speaking of which, at this time, Yang Guang, the character played by Qi Lei, was already blocked outside the three-point line by the defender with the ball.

Yang Guang (the characters in the following paragraph are referred to by character names) dribbled the ball and looked for opportunities, while the defenders were also very serious and squatted down with their hands open and squatted down to defend.

Suddenly, Yang Guang moved!

After a sudden acceleration to the left, he deceived the letting hand player and shifted his center of gravity, and immediately changed direction to the right side and broke through!

It's a clean, simple, beautiful individual breakthrough performance, and if it's in a real basketball game, then this ball is definitely a good goal to score!

But at this moment, the assistant director on the sidelines suddenly shouted: "CUT!! Stop ......"

So needless to say, Yang Guang (Qi Lei) broke through halfway but had to stop, turned to look at the director on the sidelines and asked with his eyes.

And the assistant director explained at this time: "Qi Lei, you moved too fast just now. The time to move is too early, and you don't cooperate well with the actor who is playing against you, so you come and see the picture. Then reshoot the shot two minutes later......" The assistant director said to the staff on the sidelines.
