Lu Bu laughed and said mischievously: "Yu, it's not okay to just congratulate you verbally." ”

Gao Yuanyuan looked at him coquettishly and said, "Whatever the overlord wants to do, the concubine depends on you." ”

Lu Bu swallowed his saliva and said, "I brought you a gift and put it in the RV." ”

Gao Yuanyuan said happily: "What is it?" ”

Lu Bu sold a pass and said, "You'll know when the time comes." ”

In fact, it doesn't matter what it is, as long as it is sent by him, Gao Yuanyuan likes it, she walked side by side with Lu Bu, chatting while walking: "By the way, a few days ago, Harper's Bazaar Star Charity Night sent me an invitation again." ”

Lu Bu looked at her and said, "Do you want me to help you prepare the auction items?" ”

Gao Yuanyuan said: "I don't really want to go. ”

Lu Bu was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”

Gao Yuanyuan explained, "I feel that this event has changed a little bit......

Where there are stars, there must be eyeballs and topics, no matter what the form of the activity is, the essence is the same, and it is no longer strange.

Harper's Bazaar Star Charity Nights are always full of celebrities and topics.

However, purely from the perspective of the public opinion effect of entertainment first, it has become farther and farther away from the original intention of pure public welfare.

In 2000, the SARS fear had not completely faded.

"Take out the clothes and supplies of celebrities for auction, and donate the money to those in need."

The editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar magazine at the time, Su was busy and felt that he should do something for his compatriots in need, and Harper's Bazaar Star Charity Night was born.

In the following years, the amount of donations raised increased year by year, and the stories in front of and behind the stage became more and more exciting, and gradually evolved into star shows, red carpet shows, and C position shows.

The little flowers in front of the stage are all dressed appropriately, talk decently, and have deep sisterhood.

However, it is difficult to reach the audience and step on each other, and the draft is pressed.

No one cares how much money is raised, or where it goes.

It's hilarious, it's exciting, but it's also ridiculous.

It stands to reason that celebrities should drive public welfare.

Unexpectedly, charity turned into a show.

Obviously, some people don't really want to do public welfare, but just use it to set up people, good deeds become posing photos, and children become the background of beautiful photos, and then the "goddess of charity" is drafted, people are beautiful and kind, and fame and fortune are gained.

In this circle that is not bad for money, there are always various "fraudulent donations" from time to time.

A carnival was dispersed, and the so-called public welfare was buried in the smiling "We'll meet next year!" Among them.

Therefore, Gao Yuanyuan was bored, this was not the charity she wanted to do, so she said: "In the future, I will follow you to donate to the school." ”

Lu Bu smiled faintly and said, "I haven't exposed this matter." ”

Gao Yuanyuan's beautiful eyes flashed: "If I really care about exposure, I won't go to Harper's Bazaar Star Charity Night." ”

Lu Bu nodded and said, "Okay, then you will be in charge of the love meal with Xiao Yi and Jingjing." ”

Gao Yuanyuan had also mentioned this before, but it hadn't been decided yet.

As more and more schools are built, more and more students are needed, and the cost of meals has increased accordingly.

There will be less pressure for three people.

January 1, 2007.

Today, the crew of "The Legend of Chu and Han" does not take a holiday.

At this time, the sky was gray, the wind was blowing, looking at the soldiers wearing armor and holding weapons at the shooting scene, there was a feeling of "the wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return".

"Director Gao, Director Zhao, Zhang Zhi, Second Brother, everyone is here." The assistant director came over to report.

Today's group performance has reached 20,000, including armed police, college students, performance enthusiasts, etc., who play Qin Jun and Chu Jun respectively.

The scenes that will be filmed are the "Battle of the Julu", which is one of the famous battles in Chinese history in which less wins more, after which the Qin Dynasty existed in name only.

In 208 BC, the Qin general Zhang Han defeated the Chu general Xiang Liang, crossed the Yellow River, and joined Wang Li's troops from the north to attack Zhao together, and defeated the Zhao army in HD, besieged Zhao Wang Xie in Julu, and in desperation, Zhao Wang Xie had to send an envoy to Chu for help.

The queen of Chu promised that "whoever enters the customs first, the king." So the Chu army camp was divided into two routes, and one army went north to relieve the siege of Julu in Zhao State, with Song Yi as the general, known as the "Qingzi Champion", and Xiang Yu as the second general; while another army attacked Guanzhong along Henan, with Liu Bang as the main commander.

Because the number of the Chu army was far less than that of the Qin army, Xiang Yu first sent Yingbu to lead 20,000 Chu troops to cross the river, attack the Qin army's Yongdao, and won several small victories, and then personally led the whole army to cross the river, and ordered the cooking utensils to be broken, the boats were scuttled, and each person only brought three days of dry food, in order to show the determination to fight to the death, the Chu army was motivated by Xiang Yu's first soldiers, and the battle was very brave. Nine battles and nine victories finally led to a great defeat for the Qin army.

In the original script of "The Legend of Chu and Han", this famous war was basically brushed aside, first spent a lot of ink on the trivial things before the war, and then the real war scene was more than a dozen sub-scenes, and it was not even as much as Liu Bang's attack on a small county town.

Later, at the suggestion of Lu Bu, the Battle of Julu was taken as an important highlight in the early stage of this drama, focusing on restoring the formation and combat methods of the ancient legions, showing the openness of the battlefield and the grandeur of the scene.

Gao Xixi, Zhao Jian, and Zhang Jin all looked at Lu Bu, who was a war consultant and a historical consultant.

"Okay." Lu Bu took over the crew, and said to the assistant director: "Listen to my arrangement." ”

After speaking, I opened the folder in my hand, and inside were hand-drawn storyboards.

I learned from Xu Krypton, although the painting is not as good-looking as his, but I can express all kinds of details such as color, light, and characters in the picture.

Moreover, this is the first time he has made a cameo appearance as a director to coordinate the work of personnel from various departments.

"You're hiding it!" Gao Xixi can see at a glance the extraordinaryness of these storyboard manuscripts, the brushstrokes are concise and sharp, the regulations are clear, they look very neat and easy to read, and they have a high degree of practicality.

"It's over, I'm going to lose my job." Zhao Jian didn't expect Lu Bu to have this hand, so he made a joke.

"I said why didn't you form a game these nights, it turned out that you were drawing a storyboard in the night battle." Zhang Jin gave a thumbs up.

After a meal of business blowing, let's get to the point.

Lu Bu told them about his shooting ideas.

The more they listened, the more surprised Gao Xixi, Zhao Jian, and Zhang Jin became.

I didn't expect that he could not only draw storyboards, but even have his own set of use of light and shadow, color, transitions, etc.

In particular, the way the lens is used is very personal.

In the filming of film and television dramas, the way different directors use lenses is unique, for example, director Wang Weiwei's film works, in terms of lens use, most of them are based on unconventional sports shots; Director Li An's film works, in terms of the use of lenses, are mostly based on fixed lenses.

In short, each director has a different way of using the lens, which often constitutes a difference in his or her image style.

And Lu Bu's personal style is good at using long shots.

From the perspective of film and television drama shooting, the long shot refers to a piece of picture captured by the camera from a turn on to a shutdown, which is a continuous and unedited shot, which also breaks the limitations of montage editing, reproduces the myth of the integrity of the objective real world, and presents a real, complete and continuous space.

It can be said that the emergence of long lenses has opened a new door to image aesthetics.

From Lu Bu's narration, Gao Xixi, Zhao Jian, and Zhang Jin also understood that he wanted to use a long lens to completely show the whole space of the war scene and make the battle of Julu full of reality.

Ambitions are great.

But......

It is very difficult to shoot war scenes with long shots, because there are too many uncontrollable factors.

But it's hard to return, and they are willing to accompany Lu Bu to give it a try.

If it is filmed, it will become the grandest, most shocking, and most classic war scene in Chinese film and television dramas.

As a director, as a martial artist, as an actor, who hasn't pursued it!

"Pay attention to the formation when running in a group......"

"The second group of people facing the camera on the periphery don't laugh ......"

"The shouts of the three groups are louder......"

The whole morning was all about talking to the group performers about the precautions in the drama and filming.

Seriously, it's not your average difficulty.

20,000 people is too much, and some of them have no performance experience, and all kinds of problems occur.

Lu Bu was burned out.

"Come, add a chicken leg to you, don't worry, your eyebrows are about to twist." Gao Yuanyuan came to his side with a boxed lunch and sandwiched the big chicken leg into his lunch box.

"It's not easy to be a director." Lu Bu sighed lightly.

"Take your time, crossing the line is like crossing the mountain, this is undoubtedly a huge challenge for you, if you really can't do it, leave it to Director Gao and Director Zhao." Gao Yuanyuan wanted to share the burden for him, but his ability and strength didn't allow it.

"It's fun when there's a challenge." Lu Bu wouldn't give up so easily.

"Come on!" Gao Yuanyuan is naturally the choice support.

In the afternoon, it was finally time to start shooting.

But not very well.

Again, the dispatch of 20,000 people is too difficult.

The main thing is that this is acting, it is fake, not only to pay attention to the camera, but also to pay attention to safety.

If it's on a real battlefield, it's much easier to operate.

In this way, three days passed before the first war scene was filmed.

Tired, physically and mentally tired.

However, the effect is very good, and Lu Bu, Gao Xixi, Zhao Jian and Zhang Jin are all satisfied.

The effort is rewarded, and the tiredness is worth it.

"Is this the war of the Cold Weapon Age?"

"There's really that kind of fighting atmosphere on the battlefield."

The two armed policemen were sighing.

……

"It's even more touching than the picture of the Qin army in "Hero"!"

"Well, absolutely epic war scenes."

Two college students are sighing.

……

"It makes my blood boil."

"It's the first time I've been a group performer."

Two extras are complimenting.

……

It can be seen that there is a person who understands military affairs and history, and how attractive the war scenes filmed are.

Chen Daomin watched it for three days and shook his head again and again.

And this shake of the head is with admiration.

He has acted in dozens of historical dramas and war films, but none of them, including "Heroes", "Kangxi Dynasty", "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty", etc., have such grand, exciting, and wonderful war scenes.

"I'm not exaggerating, am I?" Chen Daoming said to the middle-aged man with a peaked cap beside him.

"I always thought that he was superior in appearance, good kung fu, and potential in acting, but I never thought that he also had research on ancient wars, ancient costumes, and ancient weapons." This person is Zhang Yimou.

"You didn't think about working with him?" Chen Daoming wanted to say, "If you invite him in "Your City Full of Golden Armor", maybe it won't hit the street with word of mouth", but no matter how good the relationship is, you can't stab people.

"Yes, why not, what's the way if the schedule doesn't match." Zhang Yimou sighed helplessly.

"What happened to you this time, I think Xiao Lu will be transferred out even if there is no schedule." Chen Daoming said with a smile.

"Hopefully." Zhang Yimou squinted and said.

He didn't come to visit Chen Daoming's class with nothing to do, but came with a mission.

As a representative of the "fifth generation of directors" of Chinese films, he has now moved from the film industry to the evening party circle, and he was selected to become the chief director of the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Yanjing Olympic and Paralympic Games.

What a glory it is.

Speaking of this, there is also a story widely circulated on the Internet.

At the beginning of this year, the recruitment of the chief director of the opening and closing ceremonies began, and after Chen Kaige learned about it, he went with confidence in wearing sunglasses, and the directors who participated in the interview that day also included Zhang Yimou, Li An, Xie Jin and many other well-known directors.

In Chen Kaige's eyes, none of these directors can pose a threat to him, especially Zhang Yimou, who just carried the camera for him, so before the recruitment meeting, he did not prepare a plan carefully.

He sat in front of the judges and talked for more than an hour, the judges listened to the clouds and mountains and fog, and finally he came to a wave of commotion, and recited Du Fu's famous poem in a frustrated manner: "Outside the sword, it was suddenly rumored that the thistle was collected, and the clothes were full of tears when I heard it for the first time...... Singing during the day must be indulged in wine, and youth is a good companion to return to the hometown......"

However, the judge's words slapped him in the face directly, making it very clear that this is a multi-billion project, which requires a specific planning plan and a planning book, not a "poet".

Chen Kaige's face was embarrassed, and what made him even more embarrassed was that Zhang Yimou, who he had always looked down on, appeared on the stage with a stack of planning books, which was unanimously praised by the judges and won the position of chief director of the opening and closing ceremonies.

He almost fainted.

"Click, it's over, ready to transfer!"

Lu Bu's sonorous voice spread on the set, and the group actors, actors, and staff all breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Daoming then appeared behind him and said with a smile: "Xiao Lu, something good has come to the door." ”

Lu Bu was stunned and said, "Huh? ”

Chen Daomin put his arm around his shoulders and said, "You just come with me." ”

Lu Bu turned around and shouted to Zhang Jin, "Senior brother, you can help me tell them a play." ”

Zhang Jin made an "OK" gesture.

Lu Bu followed Chen Daoming to the rest area, got into the director's car, and saw Zhang Yimou.

"Hello!"

"Director Zhang, your name has long been like thunder, and it is really a great honor to be able to see it today!"

"Where, where, I am the name that I have admired for a long time, and when I see it today, it is indeed worthy of my name." (End of chapter)
