This Spring Festival, Cai Shaojun and Zhang Jin had a very happy time, because they accepted Wang Xu's invitation to join "Journey to the West" a few years ago.

Zhang Jin served as the martial arts director of the film, and Cai Shaojun joined to play the role of Princess Iron Fan. As a result, Cai Shaojun is the fourth popular first-line actress to join after Gao Yuanyuan, Liu Yan, and Zhao Rongrong.

On this day, spring is bright.

Cai Shaojun and his wife appeared in Chang*sha to participate in the trial of the film, and as soon as they arrived at Golden Hammer Film and Television, they saw twenty or thirty reporters and hundreds of fans with long guns and short cannons standing in front of the building.

"!"

Fans shouted excitedly when they saw Cai Shaojun appear, and reporters did revolve around Cai Shaojun to get more inside information out of her mouth.

Cai Shaojun always kept a polite smile, waved her hands and apologized to the reporters, she didn't respond a word, and then walked into the building under the escort of the security guards.

Like her, several actors who arrived earlier kept their promises and did not disclose the news of the film to reporters. Now Wang Xu's movies are becoming more and more adept at using mystery, of course, this is also because he has such qualifications to play mystery, in exchange for the general crew, he will be spoiled by himself.

"Sister Jue, Brother Jin!"

Cai Shaojun and his wife walked into the building and were greeted by Wang Xu's agent Chen Ruan. "Hey, Ruan Ruan!" Cai Shaojun and Chen Ruan came to a warm hug.

"Sister Jue, it's so nice not to see you on a holiday, and Brother Jin is also full of red face." Chen Ruan laughed as he led the two into the elevator.

"Ruan Ruan, you are getting more and more beautiful, and you are now a big agent, congratulations!"

"Don't lift me up, I'm just a little assistant, where is a big agent."

"Hey, that humility means that you have already started to put up a big agent!"

"Haha. You're kidding! ”

Chen Ruan smiled and said, "Let's go to the fourth floor now, Brother Sledgehammer and they are already putting on makeup, and there are actors who can't take pictures when they try on makeup, and assistants and agents can't bring their mobile phones in, even me." ”

Cai Shaojun nodded in understanding.

Soon the fourth floor arrived. Cai Shaojun saw several familiar female stars, including Gao Yuanyuan, Liu Yan, Zhao Rongrong, and a few people wearing makeup in the room.

When the three actresses saw Cai Shaojun and his wife coming, they all greeted each other in a friendly manner. Among them, Liu Yan and Zhang Jin were good friends during the filming of "The Saint of Gambling", and they hugged each other when they met.

Several actors congratulated each other and said that they were very happy to be able to work together. At this time, Cai Shaojun asked which actors were changing their costumes in the room.

Zhao Rongrong told her that there were Luo Jiaying and Wu Mengda. Qian Feng, Xiao Ai, and Wang Xu and Zhuang Xiaodie are inside. And Qian Feng, Wu Mengda, and Wang Xu were in it very early.

"Uncle Da, Brother Feng and Brother Sledgehammer, one is Zhu Bajie, and the other is the Bull Demon King. One is Sun Wukong, and the makeup of the three of them is very complicated, and they have to do inverted molds. It started at 5 a.m. and it's been 4 hours now. ”

The actors present are all actors, and they know that sometimes it takes several hours to pretend, Cai Shaojun herself has experienced, she played the queen in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", and it took half an hour to put on that set of court clothes and headdress every time. If you want to play an elderly queen, you also need special effects makeup, and the skin on your hands and neck needs to be aged, which takes six or seven hours.

This time, "Journey to the West" did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire the world's top special effects team, they are Weta Studios, which has participated in the special effects production of "The Lord of the Rings" and "Avatar".

The investment budget of "Journey to the West" is 300 million yuan. Of these, 150 million will be spent on special effects. In the film, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Spider Spirit, Bull Demon King, and hundreds of monsters of all sizes under his command all need a lot of 3D special effects, so Golden Hammer Film and Television and Weta Studio began to cooperate in the design and production of these models half a year ago.

Weta Studios' headquarters in New Zealand produced more than 200 clay models for the film "Journey to the West", which required ten large trucks to load.

Wang Xu is confident that the new version of "Journey to the West" will definitely win a few streets in terms of special effects compared to Xing Ye's "Journey to the West".

"Four female stars, please come in."

At this time, a staff member came out and brought Cai Shaojun and the four into a dressing room, leaving only Zhang Jin, Chen Ruan and seven or eight assistants who came with the star to wait outside.

Another hour passed.

Cai Shaoying, Gao Yuanyuan, Zhao Rongrong, and Liu Yan came out in beautiful costumes, followed by Tang Seng played by Luo Jiaying, and Monk Sha played by Xiao Ai also came out.

Tang Seng and Sha Monk have various versions of TV series for reference, and they don't need to do inverted molds, which is the easiest. And the costumes of the four beauties have to be designed with some thought in comparison.

After a few came out, they were judging each other's outfits, and if they were not satisfied, what details should be modified, and the designer would immediately redesign them according to their opinions. It can be seen that this work is not so easy, and the crew arranged three days for trial installation.

"Look, Monkey King is out."

At this time, Chen Ruan shouted, it turned out that Wang Xu finally came out, and the big guy hurriedly surrounded him.

Wang Xu's version of the Monkey King is designed towards the principles of the Monkey King, he only has some inverted molds for his hair, eyes, nose, and mouth, and only a small amount of monkey hair sticks to his face.

In general, it is an anthropomorphic Monkey King, and Wang Xu's original face can be vaguely distinguished.

"Big brother!" It was Zhu Bajie who was shouting, and when everyone looked back, Zhu Bajie played by Wu Mengda came out.

It's really Zhu Bajie, I can't see his original face at all, only from the voice and a pair of eyes can find Wu Mengda's shadow.

"I'm pregnant, it's a twin, I can't walk, big brother!"

"Huh!"

Everyone laughed when they saw Zhu Bajie with a big belly and a faltering appearance. Wu Mengda's big belly weighs four or five kilograms, which is a bit heavy. But he wasn't even worse, and Qian Feng's "crying" sound didn't come from inside.

"Miserable~~ Sledgehammer, Uncle Da, I just can't walk, come and help me!"

Qian Feng, no, it was the Bull Demon King who came out, he was wearing bionic creature skin all over his body, and he was covered with metal armor. He has two horns on his head, and he is wearing a hideous black iron mask, and he is burly, and his arms are as thick as ordinary people's arms.

Stretching from both arms to shoulders are rows of spikes, one of which holds a fierce trident.

If it were a 3D model from a computer, his eyes would glow red, his horns would burn violently when he was angry, and his weapon trident would glow blue. Now it's a physical model, of course, there is no such light and shadow effect, but this is strong enough.

If Qian Feng hadn't spoken out first, everyone would have been startled when they saw this monster come out.

Wang Xu was very satisfied with the computer special effects given by Weta Studio, the design of this Bull Demon King, this is a bit like the ultimate wave SS in the film, and the original special effects are of course inferior to today.

The appearance of the Bull Demon King can really bluff people, but it is miserable from the mouth, and it seems to be very difficult to lift his legs.

An assistant curiously took the trident of the Bull Demon King and played with it, it turned out to be metal, but it was actually so light, I didn't know it was made of materials.

Just when everyone was admiring the Bull Demon King, Zhao Xiaolan's voice came from inside: "Fairy Zixia is coming out!" ”

The proprietress was about to come out, and everyone was looking at the dressing room with blank eyes. Even Wang Xu, who had witnessed it a long time ago, stood with everyone, looking forward to his wife's appearance.

And people like Zhao Rongrong and Gao Yuanyuan couldn't wait to push the door and walk in, giving a sneak peek.

"Wow wow, wow, it's so beautiful......"

The exclamations of Zhao Rongrong and Gao Yuanyuan came from inside the dressing room. Hearing the sound inside, the hearts of the people outside were even more itchy, and they began to look forward to it.

After two minutes, finally with the support of Zhao Rongrong, Gao Yuanyuan, and Zhao Xiaolan's three daughters, a beautiful ancient beauty like a fairy walked out.

The beauty is wearing a vermilion bright gauze dress, a fish-white coat inside, a blood-tooth-colored gauze skirt, flame-red trim, a snake hair bun on her head, a white jade hairpin in the middle, and a bright red pomegranate flower inserted in the sideburns.

He holds a sword in his left hand and wears a bell on his wrist, which makes a pleasant ringing when his arm swings.

The beautiful woman has a graceful body like the ups and downs of mountains and rivers, and her skin that is crystal like snow and full of elastic power, so that everyone can see it straight.

There are beautiful women in the north, peerless.

One look at the city, and then look at the country.

is talking about Zhuang Xiaodie in front of her, and even Wang Xu, who gets along with her day and night, can't help but cry out obsessively at this moment: "Wow, perfect." Wife, I really love you to death! ”

Wang Xu is rarely so numb in front of outsiders, but you can imagine how satisfied he is in his heart, but Zhuang Xiaodie blushed from being shouted by him. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!)
