Chapter 193: Lockdown!
.........
Magic City.
The mouth of the East Yan'an Road tunnel.
Fang Ziheng and Liu Qianqian stood on the top floor of the Jinyan Building on the Bund, looking at the Oriental Pearl Tower on the other side of the Huangpu River.
There, it is the headquarters energy base of the alien invasion of Huaguo!
It is precisely because of the blessing of endless energy that aliens can attack China one at a time, regardless of the cost of casualties, and fight to the death with Chinese soldiers.
Yesterday the military and the Propaganda Department handed over a note.
After discussion, the Magic City Government, publicity, culture, transportation and other departments agreed to the filming request of "Edge of Tomorrow" and issued film shooting permits.
Alien invasion, the other side has a variety of high-tech weapons ahead of the earth, and the background of the movie is equivalent to a post-apocalyptic war.
In this way, the magic capital will become an empty city with only alien activities.
An empty city means that the city will be closed for filming!
Even if it is only a small area, it is very troublesome.
This is the case in big cities, where traffic restrictions are a big deal and must be allowed by the authorities and the local government.
Fang Ziheng now has three movies as a foundation, and his fame is not small, coupled with the endorsement of China Film and the military, he can make the Demon City Mansion relax and quickly solve a series of shooting requirements.
Fame seems to be an ethereal thing, but when it comes to using it, the effect is still very good.
Feng pants prepared for "Tangshan Earthquake", with the full support of the Tangshan Municipal Government, if he changed to an unknown person, people would ignore it.
Lao Mouzi is the same, during the filming of "Hawthorn Juice Love", the local government gave the greatest care.
I stayed in the best hotel in the county, and the cost was minimized, less than a hundred yuan for a house.
Even in order to assist in the shooting, the county town also specially set up a co-filming office, let's just say that it is not a cow.
There is also Chen Daren, in order to prepare for the filming of "Zhao's Orphan", with the filming of the movie, Xiangshan Film and Television Base waved his hand and directly renovated a Spring and Autumn Warring States City.
This is the convenience and benefits that the fame and status of a great director brings to himself.
If Fang Ziheng hadn't had "Tang Detective" and "Four Famous Catches", "Edge of Tomorrow" would definitely not be so smooth.
You know, this time the magic capital is in the movie, but it plays the role of the fallen city.
"It's going to blow up!"
Liu Qianqian snuggled up to his shoulder and pointed to the Oriental Pearl Tower and asked.
"Of course, it must be bombed, otherwise how can it show the price that Huaguo paid to save the world!"
Fang Ziheng smiled, tightened the beauty in his arms, looked at the river and said, "Not only the Oriental Pearl Tower, but even the Nanpu Bridge and the East Yan'an Road Tunnel have to be blown up together, so that the plot can be reasonable, so that the special team can sneak into the river and avoid the monitoring of aliens and touch the Oriental Pearl Tower!" ”
"Let's go, let's go back!"
After speaking, he took Liu Qianqian's hand and turned around and went downstairs.
The young lady's beautiful eyes flashed, and she said quietly: "Otherwise, we won't go back today and live outside!" ”
Hiss...
Live outside!
It's not impossible!
In a word, it provoked the anger in Fang Ziheng's heart.
The two went downstairs and found a high-end hotel nearby.
In a luxurious suite.
Fang Ziheng carefully checked it, and only after making sure it was safe did he take off his mask and walk into the bathroom with a bathrobe.
Liu Qianqian took off her coat, turned on the air conditioner, adjusted the temperature to the right temperature, and then looked at the entire suite.
In the living room, there is a red yoga ball behind the sofa.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, a single soft chair clings to the window, and on the snow-white wall next to it, there is a mirror two meters high and one meter wide.
Liu Qianqian frowned, looked left and again, and was very puzzled.
She kicked the Yujia ball, leaned on her stomach, made two movements to come back to exercise, and asked towards the bathroom: "Ziheng, this hotel is so weird, why is there a Yujia ball?" ”
"This is a trendy hotel, a lot of new and interesting things, I'll teach you later."
Fang Ziheng's words came from the bathroom, and his tone was inexplicable, with a hint of anticipation.
The young lady was even more curious, so she rolled her dark eyes, got up and came to the bedroom, and turned on the wall lamp.
A large snow-white bed with a crystal lamp hanging from it.
The most strange thing for the young lady was that there was a leather whip and two pairs of leather handcuffs hanging on the crystal lamp.
She stepped forward in a daze, reached out to remove the whip, and flicked it gently.
Syllable..
The whip was thrown out in the air, colliding with the air, and there was a whip sound.
Later, the young lady saw a wire next to the bed, and a remote control was connected to it.
"Weird!"
The young lady grunted and returned to the living room with a puzzled expression.
........
Ten minutes later.
Fang Ziheng came out of the shower.
Liu Qianqian lay on the sofa, shook the whip in her hand, and leisurely watched the Six Princesses Movie Channel.
At this point in time, the sixth princess played a zombie movie of Uncle Ying.
Well...
Isn't that a whip, why do you still hold it in your hand?
Could it be...
The young lady understands very well?
It shouldn't be!
Not long ago... What's that!
Fang Ziheng was secretly amused, and while wiping his hair, he asked, "Sissi, do you want to wash it?" ”
"Don't, I'll wash it later!"
The young lady didn't raise her eyelids, and watched Uncle Ying beat the zombies violently with relish.
........
All night, Fang Ziheng didn't move much.
The queen bed has a massage function, and the frequency can be adjusted at will.
Liu Qianqian also gained knowledge, blushed and half-pushed, and agreed to many of his scoundrel requests.
She also knew that there were other uses of yoga balls, floor-to-ceiling windows, and mirrors.
As for the whip and handcuffs, she won't agree to it, so let's stop it!
The next day.
The two slept until three o'clock in the morning, and then got up and went downstairs refreshed.
.........
Nov. 2, four a.m.
The crew drove to the Oriental Pearl Tower, and quietly started the film with the cooperation of the tower personnel.
At the same time, there are traffic police and special police on duty around the base of the Oriental Pearl Tower, blocking a radius of one kilometer.
The aerial photography team took to the air in advance to take pictures of the darkness before dawn in the magic capital.
According to the agreement between Hengyu Media and the Magic City Government, the Oriental Pearl Tower lent the crew three days for filming.
The lockdown is from 2 a.m. to 9 a.m. every day, and the crew has 8 hours a day to shoot.
Five o'clock in the morning.
The crew made all the preparations, and Fang Ziheng gave an order to officially start filming.
"Ready!"
"Actors ready!"
"The one hundred and twentieth scene, the first shot once!"
"Let's go!"
In addition to the Oriental Pearl Tower, the crew also selected twelve scenic spots in the magic capital.
Nanpu Bridge, Yan'an East Road Tunnel, Magic City Mansion, Old Republic of China Buildings and so on.
It is impossible to block the twelve attractions together, you can only shoot them one by one, one by one, and shoot where the seal goes!
As the shooting took place, the sky brightened.
A red sun rose on the sea in the east, and its path was bright.
At eight o'clock in the morning, there were many tourists and passers-by around the Pearl Tower.
Looking at a large group of soldiers wearing camouflage military uniforms and pitch-black mechs holding weapons, tourists and passers-by were curious.
"What is this doing, drill?"
Many people point their fingers and lift their feet to rush forward.
Some traffic police and special police officers pulled up a cordon and waved at everyone, indicating that they were not allowed to approach.
"It's not like a drill, it's like filming."
"Really, you see, there are a lot of cameras next to it, and there are aerial drones in the sky!"
"Lend me the glasses to see if there are any big stars."
"This crew is awesome, they have sealed the Oriental Pearl Tower!"
"Alas... I'll go, isn't that Liu Ye, Liu Qianqian, and Deng Chao? ”
"Who, let me see, where is it?"
"I know, it's the crew of "Edge of Tomorrow", they came to the magic capital to film!"
"! It's really Fang Ziheng, you see, this dog is wearing a camouflage military uniform, a peaked cap, and a walkie-talkie in his hand! ”
"It's November, why did "Edge of Tomorrow" come to the magic capital to shoot?"
"It should be part of the framing, and the whole process of shooting will definitely not catch up with the Chinese New Year file!"
"Didn't you say that "Edge of Tomorrow" is a future war, do you want to turn the demon capital into the end of the world?"
"Let's take a walk, go over and have a look, maybe we can mix up a group performance!"
The curious crowd uploaded the photos of Fang Ziheng, Liu Qianqian, Liu Ye, Deng Chao and others to the Internet, and then attached a text, which instantly attracted the attention of netizens.
In just half an hour, the news that "Edge of Tomorrow" came to the magic capital for filming topped the Weibo hot search list and became a hot topic.
"Wow, the fairy sister is so temperamental, I love it!"
"What do you do, I really want to watch it offline, and it's good to be a group performer!"
"Brother of the Demon Capital, hurry up, I want to listen to the latest frontline express!"
"Gaga, I'm going to work in Lujiazui, I'll be there with one foot on the accelerator, brothers are waiting for my good news!"
"I don't know what story "Edge of Tomorrow" tells, why are there still soldiers involved?"
"Fang Ziheng is too bad, hidden and pinched, it's really not bright!"
"Indeed, the guy is the best at selling guanzi, monkey spirit monkey spirit."
………
At nine o'clock, the crew called it a day.
The water near the Oriental Pearl Tower has been encircled, and the stills of "Edge of Tomorrow" have been posted on the Internet, which has attracted huge attention.
The entertainment media near the magic capital heard the news, and carried the camera directly outside the cordon, asking to visit the crew to interview the crew.
When Fang Ziheng saw this posture, he had no choice but to hold a film interview meeting to meet the requirements of the reporters.
If you're not satisfied, you can't do it!
If you don't make it convenient for people, people will be able to release your pigeons.
Under the Pearl Tower!
Fang Ziheng was dressed in a camouflage military uniform and a peaked cap, and said to reporters with a smile: "Everyone, as you can see, "Edge of Tomorrow" is a sci-fi war movie!"
Sci-fi war movie!
What the hell is this?
The reporters were blinded, and subconsciously thought that Fang Ziheng was fooling.
As before, sell off to whet their appetite.
A buddy was anxious, and asked loudly with a microphone: "Director Fang, I've only heard of science fiction films, war movies, and apocalyptic disaster movies, is the science fiction war movie you referring to a novel theme?" Can you elaborate on that! ”
As soon as these words came out, the other people's eyes lit up, and they looked at them with burning eyes, expecting him to give a detailed explanation.
"It's not a new theme, it's a combination of science fiction, war, and the end of the world."
Fang Ziheng smiled lightly, not hanging everyone's appetite.
Alien invasion, except for China, all other countries in the world have fallen.
This is both the last days and the calamity!
And because China is strong and can compete with aliens, "Edge of Tomorrow" can be called a war movie.
Coupled with the various high-tech weapons in the movie, this is another real science fiction film.
Fang Ziheng gave a glimpse of the outline of the movie, throwing out the concept of aliens invading the earth and the fall of most of the world.
The more the reporters listened, the more excited they became, at the press conference of "Edge of Tomorrow", Fang Ziheng threw out a video of more than ten seconds, and it was really famous.
Star Battleship!
Exoskeleton mecha!
Small spaceship!
Stealth missiles!
Laser weapons!
A series of nouns full of technology and fantasy captured their psychology at once.
Thinking of Fang Ziheng's ability to write scripts, the reporters were in a turmoil, and unconsciously had the idea of watching "Edge of Tomorrow".
"Director Fang, what role do you play in the movie, is it a starring role or a supporting role?"
"Liu Ye, you are the male number one, how do you feel about the first time you cooperate with Director Fang?"
"Sissi, you cut all your hair for the role, is it worth it? I see that your complexion has darkened recently, is filming hard? ”
"Sissi, let me ask you more, are you and Director Fang in love?"
"Deng Chao, this is the fourth time you have cooperated with Director Fang, how is it, do you feel annoyed or bored?"
"Hu Jun, look at your epaulettes, the character you play is an officer, do you have any experience as a soldier before?"
"Gu Zhixin, Xu Honghao, Zhang Yi, "I Am a Special Soldier" is on the air, the three of you have gotten together again, you are still military characters, and you don't have anything to say, do you feel that the role is repeated?"
For a time, the reporters turned into good students, caught the special operations team and lured them to spit out the relevant information of "Edge of Tomorrow" from various angles.
Everyone is not a novice, and they have been prepared for the reporter's questions, and they will not say everything, revealing a sentence or two about the content of the movie.
The more the reporters listened, the more itchy their hearts became, their eyes lit up from time to time, and they were helpless from time to time.
No matter how much they ask, they just can't get the real movie plot!
After an interview, the reporters came to Fang Ziheng with the microphone and asked the questions that fans on the Internet were concerned about.
"Director Fang, the background of the movie is in the magic capital, what do you say?"
"Director Fang, can you reveal how many filming locations "Edge of Tomorrow" has in the magic capital."
The reporters are not stupid, just from the ban on the Dongfang Mingdu Tower, you can guess that "Edge of Tomorrow" is definitely going to make a big move.
Fang Ziheng held the microphone, flicked his fingers, and said with a leisurely smile: "I can't say the reason why I chose the magic capital as my back, I can only tell you that you are absolutely shocked."
"The crew was going to shoot in the magic capital for about 20 days, and we chose a total of 12 locations for shooting."
After answering the last question, Fang Ziheng handed the microphone back to the reporter.
They also had to hurry to the next pick-up spot to finish filming the scene in the evening and dusk.
Outside the cordon, there are countless enthusiastic fans and fans.
Fang Ziheng took the main creator of the movie to bow and thank him in several directions, and then quickly pedaled away.
No way, it's the city center!
The lockdown has ended, and cars outside will soon be allowed in, and if you don't leave, it will really cause traffic jams.
………
After the interview.
Media reporters quickly transmitted the content back to the company.
In less than ten o'clock, the flowery manuscripts were scattered like snowflakes on major entertainment websites.
"Banning the whole city, "Edge of Tomorrow" can be called the biggest stroke in film history, director Fang Ziheng shouted 'I come, I see, I conquer!' ”
"Aliens have descended, humans have become ants, and brave and fearless soldiers have used the entire magic capital as a battlefield to conduct special operations with aliens."
""Edge of Tomorrow" is shocking, Fang Ziheng closed the city to film, creating the most realistic sci-fi war scene!"
"Sci-fi war films, "Edge of Tomorrow" integrates four genres: sci-fi, war, apocalypse, and disaster, Fang Ziheng once again told the world what it means to be talented and what it means to be a genius director!"
