The snow came a bit violently, and gradually turned from the initial small snowflakes to heavy snow, causing the entire crew to be trapped in the room by weather factors, affecting the progress.

Every day of free time, you have to spend a day's budget, and even every second is a loss.

In addition to visiting the shooting site of "The Truman Show", Li Zhifan also drank with everyone in the bar at the base, and it seemed that life suddenly became slower.

After a few glasses of wine in the bar, Li Zhifan rubbed his stomach, exhaled a sip of wine, and said, "The arrangements are made in Africa. When the snow stops and the flight can take off. I will take people to Africa for a few days first. Let's stop here first!"

"Then you have to be careful!"

The deputy director was already drunk and said, "It's very messy over there, be careful you're robbed!"

"I'm ready!"

Li Zhifan said, "I asked the military to contact the peacekeeping force. They will assist us in shooting. With guns there, those gangsters probably dare not make trouble!"

"I'm afraid if it happens!"

The deputy director worried, "Just last year they went to Africa to shoot documentaries and were looted several times, otherwise you don't go, I'll take people there!"

"I'm the starring actor, how can I not go?"

Li Zhifan waved his hand and said, "I can't do anything cutouts. These days I've left, you have to lead the team well. People can't have any trouble. Although they are in a state of rest, the crew's discipline must be abide by!"

"I understand!" The deputy director squeezed out a smile, "By the way, I have contacted Dalian Haida. We can shoot underwater scenes at any time, and the school provides strong support. Their survival training hall not only seals the hall for us to shoot, but also arranges the school coaches and teachers to assist us in completing the shooting!"

"Really? Didn't you say it earlier?"

Li Zhifan sat up all of a sudden, "I'll go, let's take photos directly when I'm ready. What are you waiting for? How much time is wasted here?"

"No, isn't it snowing? How can we go when it's cold and freezing?"

The deputy director was just talking casually, and seeing Li Zhifan suddenly became excited, he waved his hand quickly, "Besides, I have read the weather forecast, it's snowing there too! It's even heavier than here!"

The underwater scene was originally intended to find a lake or river to shoot, but professional underwater filming staff from the US production team said that the visibility of natural waters is very low, and bacteria in the water are prone to infection, not to mention that it can damage the environment.

Therefore, if any underwater shooting is to be clear, it can only be taken in closed and specially prepared waters.

Li Zhifan didn't believe in evil at first, but after searching several places, what the professionals said was true. Even if he went to the sea to shoot underwater scenes, it was pitch black and invisible. Moreover, he had to turn on the lights in the water, which was quite difficult in the active waters.

Things like finding scenery are done by art. The art of a movie is the essence of the soul. Whether it is the scene, the composition of the shooting, or the rendering of the post-production, it is all the work of art.

Dalian Maritime University was found for the crew's art. The survival training hall there has a special underwater simulation system, and many underwater scenes of movies were filmed there.

The underwater scenes of the entire drama "Deep Sea Fleet" released last year were filmed in the venue. It is no secret that the industry knows that this time, the filming of "Wolf Warrior" also asked Haida to make an appointment at the venue. The latter agreed without saying a word and paid great attention.

"That's it!"

Li Zhifan stood up and waved his hand, "Take the nearest train to Dalian, go and see the venue, and then set the plan and start shooting directly. You go and call the underwater shooting team, and the four actors involved in the shooting, let them start preparing!"

"This... are you sure?" The deputy director pointed outside, the snowflakes were still falling, and there was no intention of stopping.

"I'm pretty sure!"

Li Zhifan hugged his arms and said, "The athletes insist on training no matter the cold weather. What are our men afraid of?"

"All right!"

The assistant director had no choice but to stand up and cooperate with Li Zhifan's request and go to the person involved in the filming.

As a result, when I heard that Li Zhifan was going to film underwater scenes in this weather, everyone in the crew was surprised.

...

"Zhifan! Aren't you? Are you going to Dalian to shoot underwater scenes now?"

Wang Yue ran in and pulled Li Zhifan incredibly.

"Not now, it's right now! At least I can have a safe sleep tonight, right?"

Li Zhifan was lying on the bed, and his cheeks were red after drinking.

"Are you crazy? Do you know how many times there are in Dalian?" Wang Yue shouted, "You are still taking the train, what should you do if you are recognized on the road?"

Li Zhifan said: "Don't worry, I checked the itinerary and I can leave tomorrow!"

"Ming..." Wang Yue was a little angry and almost bit his tongue, "Okay, tomorrow. Do you know how much tomorrow it will be? If it doesn't snow tomorrow, it will be colder than today's snow, do you know?"

"I know!"

Li Zhifan waved his hand, "You go out quickly! Don't disturb me to sleep, you have to go to see the venue in the afternoon!"

"you……"

Wang Yue was not willing to leave, and sat by the bed and was talking and persuading Li Zhifan.

But it was useless at all, and Li Zhifan quickly started to snore.

At this time, Aure rushed in again: "Director, I heard you are going to take a risk? Oh, no! I advise you not to try it. You should know that if you go to film underwater scenes in such ghost weather, if a cold causes pneumonia, what should you do if you swell!"

More than a dozen people followed him into the door, including Lilith and others, ran in.

"Ore!"

Li Zhifan couldn't pretend to be asleep, so he opened his eyes and sat up and said, "The diving pool has a constant temperature. It's not zero degrees between degrees, so you can rest assured! Besides, there is air conditioning in the venue over there!"

"No, no!"

Aure pinched the bridge of his nose, then swung his hands gently in the air, "What I mean is that it has nothing to do with the water temperature, but with the weather. Do you know the weather? What should I do if there is something going on the road with such heavy snow?"

“Weather is not an obstacle!”

Li Zhifan smiled, "Do we have to wait until the summer to take pictures? Or do we take pictures in hot water? No! I think as long as we are ready, it will be fine at any time!"

"Zhifan!" Lilith's tone was much gentler than her and the other two, but she still looked at Li Zhifan with worry, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Your face is so red, can you just say something drunk?"

"No, I'm very awake now!" Li Zhifan lay down and said, "I just want to sleep for a while now!"

"Oh..." Aure slapped this head, tilted his neck to look at the ceiling.

"Let him sleep, maybe he will change his attention when he wakes up?" Lilith said.

Everyone looked at Li Zhifan and had to temporarily exit the room.

...

No one was waiting for Li Zhifan's "lost way" to return, but he was still "stubborn" and was about to go to Dalian.

It was the end of the year and the tickets were not available at all. The crew found a relationship through the Beijing Military Region and arranged a carriage to be added for use by the crew separately. Except for the people, all the equipment and equipment were also pulled over.

When they arrived in Dalian, the crew reached another bus and rushed to Maritime University without stopping. The school prepared a place for the crew to live and booked a small hotel near the school.

When we settled, the family was four o'clock in the afternoon, and the crew stayed in the hotel to gesture, while Li Zhifan took the deputy director and all professional underwater cameramen to visit the head of the school.

The people who received them were a vice principal of the school and the director of the survival training hall. The school was on holiday, and both of them lived in the city and rushed back to receive them temporarily.

"Mr. Li, this is our survival training hall!"

The vice principal is Yuan Changjiang, with a bald head, a short and chubby figure, and a mature and persistent look. "Our training hall is open to the public all year round, integrating swimming, water entertainment, competition and training. Look, now during the Spring Festival, many foreign tourists come to Dalian for tourism, and they still come to play in the wind and snow."

"Then let's make a movie! If you seal the museum here, will it affect the tourists?"

Li Zhifan asked, "After all, we only use one simulation pool!"

"No!" Yuan Changjiang smiled, "The underwater simulation training hall is separate. Because many crews come to us to make movies, we took this factor into consideration at the beginning of the design, and only closed this place without affecting the rest!"

At this time, the group had already arrived at the second floor of the venue, and there were quite a few tourists coming in and out.

Li Zhifan pointed to the tourists over there and said to the people accompanying him: "See, there are so many people coming to swim in this weather. How can we retreat when we see their spirits?"

Several foreigners smiled bitterly. Their movies were always the only spirit of adventure for art. Since Li Zhifan insisted on filming at this time, naturally no one would back down.

The water depth of the shooting place is between two meters and five meters, with an area of ​​about one hundred square meters.

This underwater survival simulation pool is also open to the public, just like a real person and a shooting range. Not only are tourists trying, but the students in the school also have classes for training here.

The person who played against Li Zhifan was four black actors, who were strong and had good underwater fighting skills. He was once a professional diver, and he could hold his breath for up to four minutes underwater for the longest time.

Li Zhifan would not specifically ask to finish the six-minute shot in one breath, but he could only divide it into two pieces at most. In order to sink to the bottom of the water quickly, he imitated the original shooting method and proposed a way to tie iron on his body. Underwater even arranged six lifeguards to prepare for rescue at any time during the shooting.

“The venue is perfect for you!”

After looking around, Li Zhifan said, "And the sand and stones underwater completely save us the need for the set, which is great! Principal Yuan, if possible, we plan to start shooting as soon as possible, tomorrow as early as tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow!"

"I see!"

Principal Yuan said happily, "Then let us leave it to Director Liu here. You can find him for anything. He can provide you with the help as much as possible."

Every time the venue is filmed and rented, it will bring a fee to the venue, and this fee will eventually be from the school.

Although the number of days of filming "Wolf Warrior" here is not very long compared to the previous "Deep Sea Fleet", it is not short, and it is more profitable than buying tickets for tourists every day.

After watching the venue, Li Zhifan asked Principal Yuan about the local beaches suitable for filming movies, and it would be better to have a similar site to African beaches. Principal Yuan thought for less than a few seconds and said, "There are many such places in our Dalian, and there are not less than ten places I have been to. You know, each of our schools often organizes students to conduct outdoor training, just to go to those beaches. Why not take you for a walk tomorrow and you can pick the places?"

"Or... today?" Li Zhifan couldn't wait, "Principal Yuan, if you are too busy, you can give us the address and we can find it yourself!"

"I'm busy! I'm sure I'm busy!"

Principal Yuan laughed, "In this way, I'll find a car and take everyone with me!"

Li Zhifan looked at the staff behind him and said to the deputy director: "If you want you, take everyone back to the hotel to rest first. I will just take Roberts and Gong Fan to see it!"

Robles is the head of the US filming team, and Gong Fan is the head of the art and props team of the crew. Just have them accompany Li Zhifan.

"Okay, then you guys are slowing down on the road!"
