Chapter 165 Changjin Lake is turned on
"Director Li, I have to join the crew of "Changjin Lake" late!"
Wu Jing touched his head embarrassedly.
The "Wolf Warrior" movie will have its premiere tomorrow.
And he is the starring actor of "Changjin Lake".
"It's okay, it's not so fast!" Li Hao bowed slightly.
This time, the scale of "Changjin Lake" is absolutely unprecedented, with the largest investment in history and the largest manpower since 1990.
As for the manpower is not the largest, it is that "Armageddon" was too ferocious at the beginning, and 130,000 soldiers went into battle as a group performance, which cannot be compared!
This time, more than 7,000 people were used in the early stage of "Changjin Lake", and various studios and three major art schools were mobilized.
And it is estimated that the number of extras will also reach 70,000!
There are a lot of tank props and so on!
And in this, it is also necessary to recruit a lot of foreign group performers, as well as foreign actors.
This kind of film, there is no need to count on the overseas box office, it is almost impossible to release it, that is to say, you have to count on the mainland box office, even if it is calculated according to the highest score, the upper and lower two movies must have a box office of almost 3 billion in order to recover the investment.
Preliminary preparation will cost a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and it will take a long time.
The plan is to start it in July.
However, the main actors will be gathered in advance for military training.
After all, it is a military war movie, and the actor can't have no military atmosphere at all.
After arranging things, Li Hao was busy with "Changjin Lake", and even he did not attend the premiere of "Wolf Warrior".
July 5th.
"Changjin Lake" held a launch conference in Beijing!
Many people are surprised why Li Hao filmed such a war theme film!
The news they got before was that Li Hao's next movie was the sci-fi blockbuster "The Wandering Earth", why did it suddenly change.
And the cast is so strong, there are a hundred of them!
At the press conference, the thick history of the Battle of Changjin Lake as the background was very conspicuous.
The starring configuration makes people's eyes shine.
Wu Jing plays Wu Qianli, Wu Jing's "Wolf Warrior" has just been painted, and it has a box office of 1.03 billion, and it is self-written, directed and acted, and now it is hot.
Zhang Yishan, as Wu Wanli.
Hu Jun, as Lei Suisheng.
Zhu Yawen, as Mei Sheng.
As for the supporting roles, they are even more big.
Jing Tian, who plays a nurse.
Tong Liya, who plays a female war reporter.
Hu Ge, who plays the son of a great man.
Yang Mi, playing the role of daughter-in-law.
And when Li Hao announced that the investment was as high as 1.2 billion, it shocked all the media.
After the press conference, the filming of the scene in the capital began.
The main actors are all special actors.
The scenes in the capital were filmed in three days.
Subsequently, Li Hao took the crew to Zhejiang, and first came to Hanshan Lake, Tiantai County, which had already been selected, where the filming began, that is, Wu Qianli finished the battle and took his brother Wu Baili's urn.
The crew has already set up the set.
Framing is done first.
The lake area of Hanshan Lake is 9,600 acres, which is equivalent to 6 West Lakes, and the scenery is very beautiful.
The Ninth Corps, which was in Zhejiang at the time, was urgently dispatched to the northeast!
At sunset, the golden sunlight sprinkled all over the lake.
Quiet and peaceful little fishing village!
Start shooting.
"Departments prepare." Li Hao shouted with a loudspeaker.
"The camera crew is ready!"
"The props set is ready!"
“.”
Report on the situation by various departments.
"Let's go!" Li Hao shouted.
Wu Qianli, played by Wu Jing, sat on a fishing boat, holding Wu Baili's urn, first a close-up shot, and after Wu Qianli touched the urn, the camera began to gradually zoom out and become a long-distance shot, showing the beauty here.
The beautiful scenery means that the civil war is over and a good life is coming.
This scene is filmed.
It was getting late, so I directly filmed the scene of the family eating.
After the filming of this scene, the first day of filming ended.
After a few days of filming in Hanshan Lake, the scene here was finished.
Then I went to Bulu Township, Xianju County, Taizhou to shoot!
After filming here, I moved to Coal Mountain Station, Changxing Coal Mountain Town, Huzhou!
The second big scene of the movie will appear here, which is the scene where the Ninth Corps lands on the train.
When Li Hao and the others arrived, the props and trains here were already ready.
The train, naturally, will not be the steam locomotive of that era, and it will be made through special effects to replace the diesel locomotive in reality.
All the shots here were taken at night!
Thousands of group performances, thousands of people, immediately very spectacular.
A lot of people means it's hard to coordinate!
This scene took four days to shoot before it was completed.
Coupled with the scene of the gathering of the Ninth Corps, it was filmed for several days.
When I arrived in Hengdian, Zhang Hanhe's scene was filmed first, and there were only two days left in his scene, and there were very few shots.
Next, the main scene is filmed in Hengdian, and after filming the scene here, he will go to the next place.
On this day, the filming was over.
Everyone eats supper together.
"Congratulations to Director Li, the movie is a big hit at the box office!" Everyone raised their glasses and celebrated to Li Hao.
In the summer vacation, two consecutive "Jiuding Ji" movies have achieved quite good results.
"The Young Dragon of Jiuding Ji" and "The Hidden Dragon of Jiuding Ji", one with a box office of 1.28 billion and the other with a box office of 1.59 billion, performed very well in the summer vacation.
Li Hao said with tears and laughter: "Are you congratulating me, or are you laughing at me!" ”
Although the two movies have won the box office championship in the same schedule, but now the outside media is reporting that Li Haojiang is exhausted, and the movie suffered a defeat at Waterloo.
Turns out to be a big box office hit.
"Haha~~" Everyone laughed.
"Those media only know how to report indiscriminately, and such a good box office is a fiasco, so other directors can commit suicide by jumping into the river." Wu Jing said with a smile.
The box office of "The Finale of the Four Famous Catches" was 190 million, and a celebration banquet was held early.
The result is good, when it comes to Li Hao's side, it has become a box office fiasco!
"Director Li, wait for your "The Wandering Earth" to be filmed and released, and then slap them in the face!" Nie Yuan said with a smile, this time he played the role of Yu Congrong.
Li Hao smiled.
He didn't care about that.
The box office of the two movies is 2.87 billion, and Haotian Media can get 1.139 billion, even if it is for actors and celebration banquets, there are still 1.1 billion, Li Hao is quite satisfied.
Not to mention, "Jiuding Ji: The Dragon Enters the Sea" and "Jiuding Ji: The Transformation of the Real Dragon" have already been produced, waiting for the Chinese New Year, and now the first two are accumulating popularity.
"Everyone has worked hard during this time, I respect everyone twice!" Li Hao poured a glass of wine and raised his glass.
Everyone drank together!
During this time, many night scenes were filmed, and one shot was in the middle of the night, and sometimes it was even filmed until dawn.
There are many group performances and a large crew!
If it weren't for the assistance of six assistant directors filmed by China Film, Li Hao would definitely not be able to bear it!
