Chapter 122 The real big battle
There are two most important scenes in the Gobi Desert, one is the one who captures the plane at the airport, and the other is the one who captures the jade seal on the train.
For these two scenes, Chen Jia, who returned from the United States, brought his team to make many prop models. One of the trucks in the two trucks was equipped with these prop models, all of which were separated and could be assembled when used, and there were specially customized clothing.
But having these alone is not enough to capture the picture Qiao Feng wants.
However, it is no problem to have the help of mainland film studios.
At this time, every province in the mainland has its own film studio. Of course, it can be large and small, but in short, there must be all.
Small studios may not necessarily produce a work in a few years because no one has no money, but large studios require people to ask for things and have things, but the money is not enough.
But Qiao Feng is rich.
Of course, local Lanzhou studios are indispensable for filming in Dunhuang, but Lanzhou studios are small studios that require no one to ask for money. It is not enough to rely on them.
Fortunately, the nearby Xi'an studio, commonly known as Xiying Family, is full of talents, many soldiers and generals, and has complete equipment.
Of course, this was not the peak of Xiying. The strongest thing about Xiying was a few years later. The Golden Kirin Award, the best feature film won at the Second Tokyo International Film Festival in 1987. Zhang Guoshi also won the Best A-level International Film Festival Award, becoming China's first A-level International Film Festival Award.
Later, "Red Sorghum", directed by Zhang Guoshi, won the Golden Bear Award for Best Feature Film at the 38th German West Berlin International Film Festival in 1988; in 1993, the film "Farewell My Concubine" directed by the famous director Cheng Kaige won the Best Feature Film at the 46th French Cannes International Film Festival.
Xiying can be said to be very glorious with these international awards. Later, Xiying also produced the Xianghun Girl. "Tuya's Marriage" won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival. Qiuju had a lawsuit and could not miss the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival. Living and Shaking and Shaking to Grandma Bridge won the Jury Award at the Cannes International Film Festival and Best Director Award. Qinghong won the Jury Award at the Cannes International Film Festival.
Among these awards, only the National Master won the most awards, and of course, Xiying is also the film studio in China that has won the most international awards.
Xiying is very awesome, so when Qiao Feng arrived in Dunhuang, he asked Section Chief Yang to come to Xiying. Of course, this was the case that the leader of the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency and Qiao Feng agreed to have.
The top had already said hello to ask Xiying to assist in cooperation and communicate and learn more. Xiying naturally did everything. Besides, Qiao Feng was generous and willing to spend 500,000 yuan to rent equipment, personnel, and actors to hire Xiying. Even if Xiying was a little unwilling to do so, she would have put it all back.
Don’t think that 500,000 is less. Even 500,000 Hong Kong dollars is a lot in the mainland, let alone renminbi. At this time, the exchange rate of RMB against the US dollar is less than 2, which means that only one dollar is more than one yuan, and 500,000 yuan is more than one million yuan.
It’s enough to make a movie in Hong Kong, let alone the mainland, it’s enough to make several movies.
So, Xiying solved all the equipment, props, etc. that the crew did not have.
This solution really made people from Hong Kong stunned. It was nothing to provide some guns in the previous scenes. The awesome one was the scene of snatching the plane. The military garrison directly contacted the military region and filmed at the airport.
Isn’t it necessary to have yellow sand everywhere? There is no one at the airport, it doesn’t matter. I used a military vehicle to pull the sand and dirt overnight to lay all the required shooting sites.
Don’t you need some foreigners to be extras? Simple, Xi’an is also a big city, so it’s not difficult to find a few foreigners.
Hong Kong people have never seen such a big battle before. They actually used the army, tanks, military vehicles, and planes to shoot them all, which was so scary.
But Qiao Feng was very calm. He had seen many people who were shooting movies and TV series in China. Originally, he was in charge of time and space, and the number of troops calling for the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was said to be as many as tens of thousands of people.
This is just the army, not to mention that there are still tens of thousands of extras.
Big scenes, in the mainland, that's a minor meaning.
As long as the local crew is large enough and needs money, you don’t have to spend it, just keep in mind the meal.
It’s not like filming TV series in Hong Kong. A war of tens of thousands of people was done with a general leading a dozen or so soldiers.
In fact, in Qiao Feng's opinion, it is not a big deal to use real aircraft in this movie, and just appearing on the tank is not a big deal. What he is proud of is that he found the real master Zhang, who has just graduated.
Mr. Zhang was asked by Fu Qi when Qiao Feng was in Hong Kong. Mr. Zhang graduated and was assigned to Xiguang Studio last year. Qiao Feng knew this, so it was easy to find Mr. Zhang, and it was even easier to let him come over to be a photographer.
It’s not that Qiao Feng likes him a lot, but the key is that the picture in this movie is very colorful.
The clouds are burning like red clouds, the overwhelming yellow sand is rolling, so strong and so hot, Qiao Feng is worried that Hong Kong photographers will not be able to take the effect they want.
But it is absolutely fine for Master Zhang to take the camera. This man from Daniu studied photography. His bold composition, unique lenses, and strong sense of color are unique characters in the entire history of Chinese film.
Anyway, Qiao Feng has watched the movies of Mr. Zhang himself, whether it is art films or later commercial films, what can leave behind memories are the beautiful lens language and the most beautiful colors.
Moreover, Master Zhang became famous very quickly. Now, if you don’t invite a few years to shoot the red sorghum, you will really not be able to invite someone to take the camera personally as a photographer.
When filming the scene of robbing the plane, Lin Qingxia was wearing a military green woolen officer uniform, with her hair tied up and a boat-shaped military cap. Everyone was so handsome that she looked straight at her.
Liu Xiaoqin, who was invited to play Jin Sanniang, was so jealous that she was jealous.
Because she is one year younger than Lin Qingxia, she was invited to play a middle-aged woman. Although she did not add to her face such as wrinkles or other age, after applying it from a professional makeup artist in Hong Kong, she still looked over 10 years older in her twenties.
Her skin is still tight, but anyone can tell that this is a milf.
