"Let's go!"

Li Chencan said a word on the walkie-talkie in front of the monitor.

On this side, everyone started to move.

The filming of "Saving Private Ryan" needed a lot of extras, and such extras needed five or six hundred people...... And during the filming of "Saving Private Ryan" in Europe, these five or six hundred people will have to stay here for about half a month.

At the beginning, Li Chencan and they planned to find Chinese extras to play these soldiers in Europe - after all, "Saving Private Ryan" in Li Chencan's hands is completely a movie from the perspective of the Chinese army, of course, it is impossible to find foreigners to act, only Chinese can play the landing battle.

Because the empire allows dual citizenship, there are also Chinese people all over the world, and they are still Chinese in the strict sense.

The unique climate and unique scenery of Europe also attract some Chinese to settle again, anyway, it is only a matter of more than ten hours to fly from Europe to China, and there is also the Eurasian Land Bridge and the main railway artery in the middle of communication, which is not a problem.

But the problem is that it is possible to find Chinese group performers in Europe...... But so many ensembles need to be brought together from various countries, and although the process of European integration is accelerating, there is still a distance between countries after all...... The most important point is...... Although "Saving Private Ryan" doesn't require the group actors to have too many military skills and the like, they also need to have some acting experience and be able to follow the schedule. Many of these Chinese on the European side are quite scattered, and if they are to be subject to such strict management, many of them will immediately quit......

In such a situation. Li Chencan: They simply pulled people over from China, these five or six hundred people...... The freight alone is a lot of money, plus all kinds of eating, drinking, and sleeping on the way...... It's a big expense, but there's no way, who makes Li Chencan and they need these people?

So, in the current situation, a lot of things have become a little different.

But for the sake of the requirements of cinematic quality. Li Chencan still decided so.

At the beginning of filming, a lot of things had to be carried out by Li Chencan himself...... After all, Li Chencan now has the memory of that time and space, and he also has the ability to remember ten lines at a glance. also has so much knowledge of film theory, so he is still relatively handy in making movies, but he has to do it himself in the filming of many things in "Saving Private Ryan".

First of all. There is a difference between the original movie and the movie that Li Chencan wants to shoot - the way of war is not the same at all......

Since he boasted about Haikou, he said. If he wants to shoot completely real war scenes, he naturally has to restore the Chinese army's fighting style...... But at that time, the Chinese army was not only of high quality as individual soldiers, but also well-equipped and particularly advanced in play, which was not the same as the one in "Saving Private Ryan".

Of course, this has little to do with the Normandy landings, after all, the special terrain of Normandy has been decided, and there is no way to do it here with a skirmish line or anything like that. You can only use human life to pile up.

But many of the details must be in accordance with the Chinese army's style of play...... At least the Chinese army is in this war. The fight is really much higher than that of the American army in "Saving Private Ryan...... This requires Li Chencan and several military advisers to do their best to scrutinize the details, and I hope that every scene must be strictly followed by these details when filming.

Such a huge contingent of five or six hundred people must be followed in detail, and there must be no mistakes...... It's really going to die!

Five or six hundred people set out from China to come to Europe, and there were many problems in the middle, and all kinds of dirty things such as filthy things never stopped...... Finally, I came to Europe by bumping into it, these guys can still make a lot of trouble, but now when it is time to shoot a movie, Li Chencan found that these uncles, there are many people, it is very difficult to operate, and there are many things.

For example, this scene in front of you......

There are people who always accidentally enter the danger zone......

"!" Li Chencan couldn't help but burst out with a foul mouth, and shouted loudly: "Drag that grandson back for me!" ”

A group performer over there accidentally arrived in the danger zone, and the danger zone is buried with explosives that will be blasted at that time, if something happens...... Li Chencan and "Saving Private Ryan" are all finished......

Li Chencan went through this kind of thing, there were potential safety hazards in the crew, and he had goosebumps all over his body.

In his previous life, it was a TV series, filmed in Tengchong, Yunnan, and he happened to do something in that crew that day, and he encountered an unforgettable scene for a lifetime. Two pyrotechnics had an accident because they had to go over to check the gunpowder...... Then, in just a few seconds, two lives disappeared into this beautiful world.

That day, Li Chencan and many people felt that they had gone through the most difficult day in their lives, and it was also the day when Li Chencan was most suspicious of movies and TV series - in order to shoot film and television works, we actually had to sacrifice human lives......

This feeling has troubled Li Chencan for a long time, and he even found a psychiatrist to barely get rid of it.

Therefore, for this kind of movie, especially the dangerous scenes in war movies, Li Chencan's nerves are the most sensitive, so it is completely inevitable that this foul mouth will burst out.

The filming progress here is extremely slow, after all, it is still in the run-in period, but according to this schedule, it seems a bit of a problem to finish filming this scene in half a month.

In fact, Li Chencan himself has some problems - the original version of "Saving Private Ryan" was shot with a 2D camera, and in a very amazing way, it shows the same effect as a documentary...... That's good, of course, but it's really difficult for Li Chencan to show the effect of a documentary with an IMAX3D camera.

If you use shaky footage, such as "District 9", to show the documentary effect...... This is a 3D movie, and shaking two or three times can stun people, so how to grasp such a lens effect is an important problem that troubles Li Chencan.

At the same time, there were also some conflicts between the crew and local residents......

"Superpowers are amazing! You are Chinese! The Chinese can be unreasonable! Chinese, can they bully the French at will? An old French lady pointed at Li Chencan's nose and scolded, saying that Li Chencan and them were polluting and making trouble every day, so she had no choice but to let her see Li Chencan, and as a result, French was scolded.

Li Chencan's nose was crooked after hearing the translation.

These days, their filming progress is very slow, which has long made Li Chencan very unhappy, and he can only sleep for four or five hours or even two or three hours every night, which also makes Li Chencan tend to collapse, and he has long had a temper at all, and now he is still scolded by an old lady.

"Can you still hear with your ears? Can you still hear our crew? Li Chencan immediately roared.

In his previous life, if Li Chencan heard someone scolding him, the superpower was amazing, Chinese great, he would definitely feel a sense of accomplishment, just like many people hope that others will scold him for being rich and amazing...... But in such a moment, Li Chencan was really depressed.

The translator was sweating profusely and hurriedly translated: "He said he was sorry and would solve it as soon as possible." ”

“…… But I don't seem to be saying that, sir. ”

"Hey, can you still do your job? Translate it for me, how you translate what I say. Li Chencan heard the clue......

…… Just after the matter here was settled, there was news from there again, and there was a fight and brawl time on the extras, and one of the nose bones was broken.

Li Chencan pinched the T-shaped area connecting his eyebrows and nose with his fingers, and said bitterly: "Send them all back to China for me, let them take the train back, and it's a standing ticket - no standing ticket?" If you don't have a standing ticket, you have to create a standing ticket! ”

There are so many trivial things like this......

In the previous "Infernal Affairs", although the scene was big enough, so many group performances were used, and it still had to be continued for such a long time, "Saving Private Ryan" was the first time, and Li Chencan was still relatively good at standardizing those group performances in his previous life...... But in this life, damn it, all kinds of laws, and the actors' union manage these people too well, and many times they can't be beaten or scolded, and they really make people used to being cheap bones.

Of course, this is a manifestation of progress, but now in Li Chencan's eyes, he really feels that it hurts no longer.

Fortunately, Li Chencan has so many years of shooting experience after all, and these trivial things will be handled smoothly slowly, and as the initial filming stage has passed, the filming progress of the movie has advanced a lot, and the run-in of the crew has also been carried out relatively well, so the shooting progress has slowly kept up......

It's just that after the filming progress caught up, the crew also began to face some financial problems.

The cost of funds here still exceeded Li Chencan's expectations, and there were too many places to spend money on the filming of the movie, and it also exceeded the initial budget.

A lot of the funds of Li Chencan's personal studio have basically been invested here, of course, there is still some money in the studio's account, but that must be kept useful......

"Infernal Affairs" has finally been painted in North America, and it has received a total of 114 million US dollars at the box office, of which about 150 million can be distributed to the account of Li Chencan's personal studio, which will come in a while......

So the consumption of funds is not to say that you can't get these, it's just that this consumption speed is beyond expectations, and the next shooting will be more difficult. (To be continued......)
