Chapter 406 Calling
"Hello Director Huang."
"Yanming? Why did you remember to call me? Is there something wrong? Or is there something happening on the crew?"
"None of them, that, Director Huang, when do you have time? I'll visit you."
"I? I have time at any time. If I'm not busy during this period, come here."
Zhang Yanming hung up the phone and cleaned it up, went to say hello to Sun Hongye, thought about it, and then went to the cigarette hotel outside to carry two bottles of good wine, and then drove to Luliqiao.
There are quite a lot of place names like this on the land of China. Most cities with a little history have a few places around them, including Sanlizhuang, Wulihe, Liuliqiao, and Shili Pavilion. This is related to ancient etiquette.
In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient, and people disappeared as soon as they left the door, so they were particularly concerned about welcoming and seeing off. According to different relationships and things, there was a saying that welcoming and sending off a few miles. This is how these place names came from.
Not only are the people who have these etiquettes, but the royal family is the same. According to the official decision, the mileage of welcoming and sending, including the army that goes to triumphantly, they must abide by such rules. It is called great etiquette.
This is used for Chinese measurement, which is 0.5 kilometers per mile, which is quite standardized and is also the oldest unit of measurement in history. It has been used since the Qin and Han dynasties.
At that time, there was a kind of "taxi" that was specially used to calculate the distance. A small copper bell hung outside the car, and it entered a fully automatic state as the wheels rotated. Every time it was knocked, it was one mile, which was convenient and accurate.
The wisdom of the ancients really needs to be looked up to. As technology becomes more and more developed, humans are constantly degenerating, and in many aspects it is not as good as that of the ancients.
...
On the bus, heading south from the West Third Ring Road, Zhang Yanming took out his cell phone and called Director Huang again.
"Director Huang, I'm on the West Third Ring Road, where can I enter?"
"You are here? Is this a troll? I'm at the base, and you didn't say you're here. I thought you'd have to wait for two days. Are you driving? Why don't you come to the base directly and give me some advice."
"What advice can I give? It's almost the same as learning. The base, you have to walk from Wanping and cross Lugou Bridge, right? I haven't been there."
"Yes, it's okay to come from Yongding River, take the Xinqiao and the highway, it's a matter of five yuan. Then I'm waiting for you here, and I'm calling."
"Where is the gate? Uncle Huang, you have to tell me where the gate is, such a big place."
"Hahaha, west, the gate is west, when you arrive, call me, I'll ask someone to wait for you at the gate."
Zhang Yanming, the outdoor base of the Military Film Studio, has never been here in his lifetime, but he still knows the location, the size and roughly the partition inside. He has filmed many popular movies and TV series in the memory world, but the base itself is not very famous.
From Luli Bridge, he walked along Guang'an Road to Lugou Bridge. The movies and TV series in his head were circling like a lantern, which made his emotions a little ignited and he became a little excited.
If you think about taking all these classics in your mind, you will be worthy of this world.
After experiencing many lives in my dreams, seeing all kinds of worlds and all kinds of people, there are few things that can excite him, including making money. With so many memories, making money is already quite easy.
That's why he had the idea of going to school and then chose a director. He had done so many careers, but only film and television has not experienced it, so naturally became his goal.
Just like people riding bicycles want to drive, people in the mountains want to go to the beach, and people in the plains yearn for mountains, people always become interested in the unknown and turn a blind eye to the beauty around them. Including people.
This is the real person, the real life.
...
Director Huang is not inspecting the base, but has a job.
There are some shots in the battlefield diary here, and some scenes have been set up. Director Huang is doing the final inspection with the director.
The entire northern half of the base, which is more than one kilometer long from north to south, is empty except for some trees, and is used to temporarily build some scenes, which can be burned, exploded or destroyed. Many movies spend at least one-third of the money on this.
Including some mine clearance, shelling, explosion, charge and battlefield quiet shots, this is how the scene is shot, which can completely restore the script, minus the time and expense of finding suitable scenes everywhere.
Besides, it is really not that easy to find a place that is exactly the same as the script requirements. Many great directors may spend half a year or even a few years just looking for a suitable place in the early stage of filming.
It's much harder than finding an actor.
The key is that you may not be able to use it if you find an ideal place, and many places cannot be destroyed.
A famous director just destroyed a little green space in a scenic spot, and some garbage fell, and was scolded by the people for several years. What's more, war movies. If you don't dig or bomb, that's called a war movie?
Zhang Yanming was thinking about driving the car to Wang Zuo, but he was not familiar with it at all. After asking for a few people, he found the way. He turned right and left to the north end of the military film studio's exterior base.
From the west of the base, we drove south along the courtyard wall, and finally saw the gate at the turn of the middle road.
The gate was built into the style of an ancient wall, and two blue brick peak fire platforms were built into a gatehouse, with a tall city gate in the middle, connected to the right to the exterior wall.
Zhang Yanming drove the car into the cement dam in front of the gate and saw a person running over from the gate opening.
"Hello, is it Mr. Zhang?"
"Yes, I'll look for Director Huang."
"The factory manager is inside, let me pick you up here."
"You lead the way, can you get in?"
"Yes, my car is in the door, come in." The person who came waved his hand, turned his head and ran back into the door.
The guards raised the lever and signaled that Zhang Yanming could enter. The base was not open to the public yet and was a military management area.
After driving through the gate, there was another parking dam inside, but it was just land, with several offices beside him. The person who picked him up had already gotten in the car, a military green off-road vehicle waved at him and took the lead in driving south.
Zhang Yanming followed the off-road and walked inside. The road was a little bumpy, and the roadside was full of trees, so I couldn't see it at all. After walking for more than 200 meters, there were buildings on the side of the road, and a archway was coming towards it. The road turned east.
The off-road vehicle driver stretched out his arms and stopped the painting under the archway. Zhang Yanming stopped the car on the edge of the off-road, lowered the window and asked, "Are you here?"
"The factory manager told us to wait here, and he will come out immediately." The off-road driver got out of the car and closed the door, lying on Zhang Yanming's window and said.
"Oh, okay." Zhang Yanming pulled out the key and got out of the car. He turned his head and looked around. He had nothing but the tree. He could not see it at a distance and was blocked.
This is to prevent the shooting of the terrain specially designed, and it is impossible to see from the outside or from the inside. Otherwise, no matter how careful the director is, he will inevitably be careless.
Many of the electric poles, electric towers, air conditioners and vans in costume dramas are actually filmed in because of the terrain of the venue and terrain.
Duan Yu: Brother Qiao’s light skills are indeed extremely powerful. Look at me, Lingbo Weibu. Ha. There is a telephone pole beside me, and a telephone pole... His this has nothing to do with the scene, it is the director’s blind question.
