Chapter 551: Vast Preparations

Eight cars, more than 30 staff, plus a heart to Tibet.

This is the whole team of "Into Tibet".

Luo Mo is naturally not one of those people who thinks that if he goes to Tibet once, he will be baptized.

But during this time, he also wanted to try his hand at making a film, which he ended up choosing. Documentaries show real life and show the real state.

Chinese documentaries have a long history, and there are many that can be very well received.

Documentaries such as "Old Summer Palace" are very classic.

In recent years, China has also had good documentaries such as "The Train Home", which has caused a huge sensation in the world, and was called by foreigners at the time that 'ordinary people in China are actors', of course, this is not ironic, but really praised, because this documentary records the various states of all beings, giving people a kind of power that shocks the soul.

In addition to shooting a movie, not allowing himself to be idle, and getting more things, Luo Mo really wanted to go to Tibet once.

He knew that the filming process of this movie would inevitably be very difficult, from the plain to the plateau, from the forest to the grassland, the blue sky and white clouds, the green mountains and green waters, and the line between life and death...... These will further test and train Luo Mo's ability to deal with various dangerous and complex situations.

Filming "Yue Fei" will be a more huge project, and there will be more dangers and difficulties at that time, and Luo Mo is now preparing in advance......

Under many ideas, the plan of "Entering Tibet" was born.

Luo Mo is ready.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! A group of actors walked in front of Luo Mo, and the sound of banging caused dust to splash on the ground, and these actors who were training were going to be used in "Yue Fei".

Whether it is a Chinese or foreign war film, it is usually foolish in terms of numbers, even if it is "The Lord of the Rings", which has vast war scenes, in fact, only thousands of actors are used, and the terrible war scenes are synthesized through special effects.

Although the special effects synthesis can be fake and real, it can make a very large scene, but after all, it is fake, and after watching more, everyone will be suspicious.

Therefore, Luo Mo wants to train thousands of extras......

Originally, although the Yuejia army was very strong, after all, it was inevitable to use infantry against cavalry, and the cavalry of the Song Dynasty was too weak. It was not until in the war with the puppet Qi that the Yuejia army captured more than 10,000 war horses, and then formed a Beiwei army to fight with the Jin people and horses.

The elite 8,000 cavalry in the Yuejia Army's Beiwei Army, the Jin Man's Tiefutu, and the Kidnapping Horse are all cavalry, and Luo Mo just asked everyone to train again and again, hoping that the battle between them could be shown in the camera at that time.

Horse warfare is one of the most difficult shots to shoot in cold weapon warfare, after all, foot combat is shot by people, people can be obedient, can be forbidden, and achieve the desired effect, but horses are different...... This kind of training becomes very difficult, and every day these people have to work for a long, long time.

However, even with the Beiwei Army, the main force of the Yuejia Army is still infantry, and these infantry need a lot of momentum, so now they are also training those actors who play infantry, and now the company is still making specific negotiations with ZF, and those who play soldiers may use the field army.

After all, they naturally have momentum in them.

Now, on the training ground, shouting to kill the heavens, everyone is almost trained in the same way as training soldiers......

As a result, just in terms of training these actors and horses, the upfront investment of "Yue Fei" will reach nearly 100 million yuan. Then, it takes tens of millions of dollars to produce and shoot the set, build various scenes, and then, the props and other expenses of the entire crew, as well as the payment of the salaries of the cast and crew, plus a lot of expenses such as film, all kinds of trivial things will make the simple shooting cost reach seven or eight billion yuan......

There are also some movies in China that claim to have an investment of seven or eight billion, but in fact, these claims are very watery, and now except for Luo Mo's "Gravity" and "Inception", China really does not have a movie with an investment of more than 800 million yuan.

And now, "Yue Fei" alone has invested more than 700 million yuan in these films, not to mention that the plan can't catch up with the changes, who knows what the real situation of Lu Dao will be. It's no wonder that some of the company's shareholders feel that such a movie is too risky......

Although Luo Mo's movies have always been able to get high box office at home and abroad, no one knows if a Chinese costume war film like "Yue Fei" can be bought by foreigners......

After Luo Mo explained some, he didn't say much, and let everyone sit and watch the movie...... If the movie really doesn't work...... After all, the current Qianmo Entertainment Company has become a climate, with a complete film industry chain, even if his films do not get the terrible box office, Qianmo Entertainment Company will suffer heavy losses at most and will not suffer a fatal blow.

Shen Dan came to Luo Mo's eyes at this time, wiped a handful of sweat from his head, the ash on his face dyed his face into a big cat, and some sweat poured into his eyes, making him scrambled for a while before he said to Luo Mo: "Senior, are you here?" ”

Shen Dan is in charge of these trainings.

"Well, I'll come and see." Luo Mo patted his collar with his hand, and after patting the dust off it, he smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"It's fine." Shen Dan wiped his sweat again and said with a smile. Shen Dan has been serving as a deputy by Luo Mo's side for so many years, and it wasn't until a few days ago that he came up with a movie plan, passed Luo Mo's approval, and directly approved an investment of 100 million yuan.

He's going to make an action movie.

Luo Mo gave him such a large amount of investment, first because of years of affection......

Over the years, Shen Dan has been saddle up and behind, and many of Luo Mo's movies, he himself is responsible for mastering the general direction, but the most tiring and cumbersome grievances are all handed over to Shen Dan to solve.

Shen Dan has not lived up to Luo Mo's expectations and has always done a good job......

Now that he is going to fly solo after all, Luo Mo will also give him a big investment for the sake of years of love.

The second is because Shen Dan has been with Luo Mo for so many years after all, and has filmed many big-scene and big-investment movies such as "Inception" and "Gravity", and Luo Mo believes that he can control it well

However, Luo Mo was still on call for him, for example, for this kind of training, he was more relieved to hand it over to Shen Dan.

"Yue Fei" has to use relatively good domestic filmmakers no matter what it is, for example, the art director is Tim Yip, which has been decided...... Others will also look for the top in each industry.

The movie will only start shooting in the second half of next year, but Luo Mo has been preparing so early, so you can imagine how much he has to invest in this plan.

"How's the training going?" Luo Mo still asked what he was most interested in.

"It's okay to ......," Shen Dan said: "After training, everyone can basically still show that kind of style, and another half a month of training will temporarily let them rest, and then start to resume training after July next year, after a few trainings, everything can be settled." It's just that the horse team is different...... I guess I'm going to have to exercise regularly in the future, otherwise I won't be able to do it at all. ”

Luo Mo nodded.

The horse team must be difficult to train, and he knows this.

To train the horse team to chop, it is estimated that it is not easy to do this, and Luo Mo's purpose is to train the horse team to be able to accept aerial photography and long shots......

This one is even more difficult.

"Well, it's just you paying more attention." Luo Mo said.

…… After doing these things, the news of "Into Tibet" was officially released nationwide!

Luo Mo is going to make a documentary!

Although Luo Mo did not officially hold a boot ceremony or anything, he only released relevant information on Weibo and 'Luo Mo Chinese Network', and the news instantly spread to the whole country. Now Luo Mo, every move is the focus, of course, such a big move can't be hidden from others.

Many people were blindsided by this sudden news.

Didn't Luo Mo plan to shoot "Yue Fei"? Why do you want to make a documentary now?

What's going on? What was his plan?

Luo Mo didn't expect everyone to pay so much attention to himself, so he had to explain his thoughts about making this film, mainly because he wanted to try new fields and find some new touches.

"As for my "Yue Fei", I haven't stopped this plan." Luo Mo explained: "But this film involves a lot of things, and I need to prepare for too long, so in this blank time, I plan to prepare for "Into Tibet", which I planned to shoot a long time ago. ”

After Luo Mo's explanation, everyone understood.

For Luo Mo's first documentary, everyone has a lot of expectations, but while looking forward to it, they also told Luo Mo that they hope he can pay attention to safety.

After all, it's not a completely smooth path.

In addition, some people still ask, what does Luo Mo plan to film, is it like "Turning the Mountain"? There is no need for Luo Mo to answer such a question himself, many people can help him answer it - "Turning the Mountain" is not a documentary, it is a feature film, although the filming process is very difficult......

On August 3rd, the crew of "Into Tibet" officially started, in fact, this is the smallest start in Luo Mo's movie...... Even his debut novel "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" is a little larger than the current "Into Tibet".

Because of this film, if it weren't known to everyone, then Luo Mo even planned to shoot it secretly, and he didn't want to make the city stormy.

Therefore, this boot-up ceremony can naturally be short......

Soon, the car was already departing...... Keep moving forward on the road covered with yellow sand.

Tang Yan sat on Luo Mo's right hand, she looked at the scenery outside the window attentively, Luo Mo smiled and said, "This time it's really going to start filming, it's too late for you to regret it now." ”

"I have nothing to regret." Tang Yan said with a smile: "I can learn things from a great director like you, many people can't ask for it." ”

"It's a tuition fee to learn from me." Luo Mo said with a straight face.

"What do you want?"

"Pay the money and the debt......"

"How did you become so bad now?" Tang Yan slapped Luo Mo's right shoulder with her hand.

Luo Mo took Tang Yan completely by the way, his real purpose was to shoot this thrilling process, from death to life, from flat to rugged, from earth to heaven - of course, this is a metaphor, Tibet is not heaven.

Along the way, he also wants to hone his understanding of film and filming.
