Approaching the set, you can see the tent set up in front of you from a distance, and the staff are busy in it.

"You've been living here, huh?"

Dongfang Wenying glanced at the front and said, "Sometimes, when I finish work too late, I just live here, and I go to a nearby county town to live in a guest house when I have time." ”

Closer, Gu Bei pointed to another place, where there was a large group of horses, and a few people with long poles were guarding around.

"So much?"

Previously, Gu Bei had heard Feng Pants say that the crew borrowed a batch of horses from Inner Mongolia, note that it was a batch, not a horse.

"Six hundred and seventy-five horses in all!"

Ooh......

Gu Bei couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, thinking that when he was filming the scene of Tianhe horse herding, the crew asked the local garrison troops for help, and only got together more than 300 horses, and now there are nearly 700 horses here.

Of course, during the ancient wars, the cavalry of the two sides had to start with two or three thousand, 670 horses, and they had to be divided into two camps, which was not a lot.

As for some, there are thousands of them at every turn, that is pure nonsense, in ancient times, the value of a good war horse, it is difficult for people today to imagine at all, and to cultivate an excellent cavalry, the price is not lower than raising a war horse.

Basically, the cavalry unit is a country's hole card, which one can really have two or three thousand cavalry, basically can dominate in a region, if the light cavalry is replaced by heavy cavalry, it is not an exaggeration to sweep the world.

"It costs a lot of money to borrow it, right?"

Dongfang Wenying smiled: "What's wrong?" Mr. Gu is distressed? ”

Stupid!

What's so distressing about this, if you don't use the quantity to create a grand war scene, you can only use special effects.

The special effects of a second may be as high as tens of thousands, and they have to be dollars.

In comparison, it is much more cost-effective to rent some horses to film.

"Let's take a look!"

Seeing the group of horses, Gu Bei couldn't help but feel itchy, and drove directly to him.

got out of the car and looked at the horses that were being driven in one place, munching on the weeds on the ground with their heads down, one of them attracted Gu Bei's attention.

Up and down, the whole body is snow-white, without the slightest variegation.

White Dragon Horse!

Gu Bei's eyes widened, but soon his eyes dimmed again, and he shook his head.

"What's wrong?"

Dongfang Wenying asked curiously.

"I remembered the horse used by the crew when I was filming before! At that time, I communicated with the leaders of the troops, and the crew spent a lot of money to buy it! ”

Dongfang Wenying immediately guessed which horse Gu Bei was talking about.

"White Dragon Horse?"

Gu Bei nodded, and couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart.

It has been more than ten years since I first met the white dragon horse.

"Teacher Gu, do you still know where the white dragon horse is now?"

Nature knows.

It's just a pity that it's no longer there.

That white horse is not just a living prop for Gu Bei, it is very humane, every time I think of it, it is like thinking of an old friend, it is not a horse, but a person!

When he was in the crew, Hakuba was always diligent, and although he couldn't speak, he could use his gaze to express his feelings.

Until now, Gu Bei still remembers that the crew was filming in Suzhou, and one day they set off to the set, because the horse couldn't go on the road, so they used a truck to pick them up every time.

When he got into the car, Hakuba stepped on a wooden plank that was leaning on the truck, and he had never had an accident, but that time, I don't know if he was empty, or slippery, and halfway up, Hakuba suddenly fell down and got stuck in the ditch on the side of the road.

At that time, the big guy was frightened, as an important property of the crew, if it was really injured, many people would be punished, and they got along day and night, and everyone also had feelings for the white horse, how could they bear to watch it suffer.

The white horse struggled to stand up on all fours, but the saddle was stuck in the ditch, and everyone stepped forward together, but they couldn't pull it.

Gu Bei still remembered that Director Yang Jie was crying urgently, squatting in front of the white horse, constantly comforting, and babbling on his lips: "Are you in pain?" How could you be careless? Don't worry, we'll pull you up! ”

At that moment, Gu Bei actually saw tears flowing from Bai Ma's eyes, a big teardrop.

Fortunately, everyone brought tools, got the white horse up, and then pulled it around the yard to see if it was hurt.

Fortunately, after a while, the white horse moved freely.

Another time, I remember that in 87, the crew filmed in Jiuzhaigou, finished filming the scene below the waterfall, and prepared to shoot the shot of the four masters and apprentices walking on the waterfall.

Gu Bei and Li Chengru pulled the white horse and the four masters and apprentices to the top of the waterfall from another road.

Just as we were going uphill, because the rocks on the mountain were very slippery, the white horse slipped and fell in the rocky ditch again, and everyone panicked and tried to pull the white horse out of the ditch, but this time it was not like last time.

The rocky ditch is relatively deep, and the water flow is rapid, which chokes the white horse, and the place next to the ditch is very narrow, and a group of people are helpless to crowd there.

Fortunately, I met a tourist at that time, reminding Gu Bei and the others to first remove the saddle on the white horse, and then comforted the white horse, let it rest for a while, recover its strength, and then worked hard together, tossing for a long time, before pulling the white dragon horse out of the ditch.

Later, I learned that the tourist was a fellow Tibetan and a professional horse wrangler, so it was no wonder that he knew the habits of horses.

It is precisely because we have experienced a lot of things together that the relationship is extraordinarily deep.

But there is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, and a few years have passed in a hurry, and everyone is going to say goodbye to the white dragon horse.

Hakuba left the crew when the crew was completely incapable of taking care of it, and he didn't know where he had gotten it.

Later, Gu Bei went to Director Yang Jie's house during the Chinese New Year, and heard the old lady say that the white horse was taken to Wuxi along with all the set props of the crew.

I also heard that the white horse was regarded as a scene, made a selling point in Wuxi, set up a "white dragon horse" brand, tourists can pay money to take pictures with it, more money can also ride it to take pictures, if more, you can also ride a circle.

At that time, when Director Yang Jie talked about what happened to Bailongma, her tone was full of sadness, and Gu Bei was also taken aback, he didn't expect that Bailongma would be used as a tool to make money.

When it came to the crew, it had already reached the age of being discharged, otherwise the army would not have been able to transfer it to the crew, and then followed the crew to film everywhere, in the wind and rain, climbing mountains and mountains, and being born and dying several times.

This shouldn't be the end of it!

The last time I heard the news of Bailongma was the year before last, and I also heard Director Yang Jie talk about it.

The old lady and teacher Wang Chongqiu went to Wuxi for a trip, found the leaders of the local cultural department, asked about the whereabouts of Bailongma, and were told that Bailongma was still alive and was enjoying the treatment of retired cadres, living in a single room and eating small stoves!

So, Director Yang Jie and Teacher Wang Chongqiu wanted to see how they enjoyed the treatment of retired cadres.

When I arrived at the place, I found that the so-called single room was a cave-like hut, but in fact it was just a hole dug in the hillside, dark and narrow.

Near the door, it was a little bright, and there was a lean horse inside, listlessly munching on straw in a manger.

It's very dirty, and it is almost impossible to see its original white, which makes it hard to believe that it is the white dragon horse that once carried Tang Seng westward.

Director Yang Jie said that at that time, she stood by the narrow cave for a long time, and the white dragon horse seemed to recognize her and watched her stand for a long time.

Before leaving, Director Yang Jie asked the person in charge to take good care of it, but it didn't take long for the news that Bailongma was dead and buried in the local area.

When listening to Director Yang Jie talk about this incident, Gu Bei's mood was very complicated, remembering that when he was filming Tianhe herding horses in the Inner Mongolia grassland, the white dragon horse was heroic and upright, and galloped on the grassland with the horses.

How happy the white dragon horse must have been at that time!

It was their gang who, for the sake of filming, "snatched" it away from where it should have lived, let it live the life of the crew, and let it work hard with the crew.

When people are used up, they will be ruthlessly abandoned!

In the end, he died silently!

When Gu Bei talked about this, Dongfang Wenying's mood was also very low.

"Teacher Gu, why didn't you help it at that time?"

yes, why can't you help the white dragon horse?

The capital does not allow horses to be raised?

With his wealth, couldn't he build a horse farm on the outskirts?

The contribution made by the white dragon horse is enough for it to enjoy such treatment.

In the final analysis, it was still troublesome, so I deliberately forgot about it.

Gu Bei didn't speak, and walked towards the horses, and the person in charge here saw Gu Bei and was about to step forward to stop him, when he found Dongfang Wenying following behind.

"Teacher Gu, danger!"

Gu Bei smiled, when he was filming Tianhe herding horses, it was not as dangerous as now, what is this.

The horses were very docile, and when Gu Bei came over, they knew to give way.

Gu Bei didn't stop until he walked to the side of the white horse, raising his hand and gently stroking his long mane.

This horse really resembles the White Dragon Horse.

Probably sensing Gu Bei's kindness, Bai Ma lowered his head, so that Gu Bei could touch it without raising his arm too high.

It's really fate!

"Dongfang, how much did it cost to rent this herd of horses?"

"One month, fifty thousand."

More than 600 horses, rented for a month, only 50,000.

"You take the time to contact the owner of this group of horses and ask him if he wants to buy this white horse, I want to buy it!"

The white dragon horse is no longer there, Gu Bei may be out of conscience, or maybe he wants to get some comfort, so he has a whim and wants to buy this white horse.

I just heard Gu Bei say so much, and Dongfang Wenying also guessed Gu Bei's thoughts.

"Teacher Gu, do you think it will be happy to keep it in captivity?"

Gu Bei was stunned when he heard this, looked back at Dongfang Wenying, and shook his head with a wry smile for a long time.

"Forget it!"
