"Crack"

Under the blue sky, the sound of firecrackers kept ringing, making people feel a little hurt, but the festive atmosphere was good.

At the scene of firecrackers, a large case was very eye-catching. There was a huge braised pig's head on it. In front of the pig's head was a small statue. Even if it looked like a man, it was impossible to tell what kind of god it was.

The chopping board was surrounded by people, densely surrounded by three people. From left to right were Fang Liyong, Du An and Zhou Xingchi. There were assistants waiting beside them, and they were talking while handing the incense to them.

"This place is really good. It's November and it's the same as early summer. Just wear a shirt. It's really a pleasure to stay here in the next few months."

Fang Liyong was idle and was talking to Du An at hand in the noise of firecrackers.

Duane glanced at him, "Do you like it? Well, you'll stay here with us next. Anyway, the signal towers have been built, and you can remotely operate your company's affairs."

Fang Liyong thanked him for his proposal and said, "I think, but many things in the company can't be solved by just the Internet. Alas, I can't compare to you when I work hard."

Duan smiled and did not expose him, but looked over him and looked towards the sea that could be seen far from the left.

This is Nanshu Island, located in the South China Sea, belonging to the Nansha Islands. It is an island with an area of ​​square kilometers. It was officially incorporated into China's territory during the Song Dynasty. After modern China took back the series of islands from Japan, there were still constant disputes. Vietnam, Philippines and Horses have always held disputes over the ownership of the islands. This year, with the continuous development of China's national construction, the dispute gradually subsided.

And this is also the filming location of some scenes in "The World of Truman".

Although international disputes and the dissent of neighboring countries have basically disappeared, in the past few years, Vietnam has seen news that the Chinese government's opinions on seizing the islands and triggering a series of conflicts, as if it was yesterday, so it also made many people have an impression of "unsafe" here.

Such people obviously include Fang Liyong, who is obviously worried about safety factors, so he came to attend a start-up ceremony today and would leave immediately afterwards.

However, such islands also have one advantage, that is, they are cheap.

Since the entire ownership of the archipelago is still short, the region has no permanent population, mainly peacekeeping troops are stationed, and fishermen will also rest here. Under such circumstances, the country urgently needs to build and improve the relevant basic facilities on the archipelago. At this time, the crew of "Trumen's World" jumped out.

They need to build houses and roads when filming, but they go after filming, but these houses and roads cannot be demolished. This is equivalent to giving it to the country, which perfectly meets the needs of the country's construction and does not require the state to pay for it. Naturally, the government does not want such a good thing. As a reciprocating move, the country also gave them the benefit, that is, they almost got 100,000 yuan with a free number.

The rent is simply a symbolic number, not to mention that the government has built a signal tower for them on the island and sent peacekeeping troops to stay on the island during their shooting. It also promised that the Navy would take the South Island as a key strategic goal during daily patrols, and to achieve two patrols a day, completely eliminating their concerns about safety.

These projects alone are far more than 100,000.

Of course, Duane has only obtained these discounts. After all, he is now the world's number one director in the single film world box office and a world-renowned figure. If something happens to him in Chinese territory, where can the government put its face?

"Director Du, it's time to burn incense."

The voice of an assistant interrupted Duane's thoughts.

He withdrew his gaze and saw that the firecrackers had been set off. Then he nodded, took the incense, and walked forward with Fang Liyong Zhou Xingchi, bowed three times to the statue on the table, and finally inserted the incense into the incense burner.

This statue is a statue of the Sea Dragon King.

Although the custom of worshiping gods on the mainland is not as strong as Xiangjiang, now they have filmed on the island, and there are seas around them. It is better to be awe in such a place. Worshiping the Dragon King can also be considered as giving yourself some psychological comfort to the crew.

After worshiping the Dragon King, cut the color again, this opening ceremony will be over.

After the ceremony, the staff on the scene became busy again. They were packing up their things and preparing for filming later. There were only three or four idle people.

"Without media, I always feel a little uncomfortable..."

Fang Liyong looked around and sighed at Du An.

The accelerated globalization has made regional cooperation more frequent, especially in the entertainment industry, where yellow, black and white are both yellow, not to mention different provinces, and that is more. This has led to Fang Liyong, a Nanyang man, who speaks Northeast dialect, which has a little bit of a taste.

Duane smiled, not saying anything to him.

Since the list of actors was not announced, Duane planned to keep the filming on a low-key tone to run, so no media was invited to interview this time.

The total production cost of "Trumen's World" is 300 million yuan, of which 30 million is spent on Zhou Xingchi's pay. This is due to Zhou Xingchi's willingness to reduce his pay by himself. This shows how terrifying his original pay was. As for other actors, from the heroine to the little supporting actor, Du's Security Department adopted unknown actors, and the total salary was less than 2 million yuan. The huge gap between the rich and the poor in this circle is obvious.

There is nothing good to promote for these unknown actors. The audience will be interested in them only because Duane and Zhou Xingchi do not attract traffic themselves, so Duane simply keeps his mystery and does not promote it, which can achieve a better effect.

The time has not come, and I can't leave for a while. Fang Liyong is probably very bored. After looking at the busy staff around him, he smiled and said, "These faces are really pretty, and I don't know any of them."

The meaning in his words was very obvious, and even a fool could hear it, and Duane was no exception.

Du An just said, "Mr. Fang, since you have given me full responsibility for this matter, I think you should not think too much about it. Anyway, you have made money, right?"

Fang Liyong is not satisfied with the list of actors. This is something Du An has known for a long time. Fang Liyong has also said this many times, but every time he was pushed back by Du An, just like this time.

However, Fang Liyong did not just keep silent like many times in the past, but followed up with another sentence: "It's just that a famous actor can always feel at ease when using it, and it's like you have made a profit, so you don't have to think too much about profitability, nor do you have to reduce costs for me."

His words were beyond Duane's expectations.

Du Anli looked at him in surprise: According to Fang Liyong's personality, he wouldn't talk so much? Especially when he had suffered a lot of rebuffs.

However, after seeing Fang Liyong's expression that was somewhat unnatural than usual, Du An's eyes turned, probably understanding what was going on.

He probably was afraid.

Fang Liyong is cautious by nature and takes stability as the first priority in everything he does. He likes to control all situations within his predictable scope, but the current situation is not within his control scope. He doesn't know if Yue Fang will suddenly get angry. After a few years of calm, he suddenly comes to cause trouble. What should he do if his personal safety is at that time?

So he was scared and used his words to relieve his nervousness.

This discovery made Du An laugh: I have known Fang Liyong for a long time. I have been with each other as a friend or an enemy. This is the first time he saw Fang Liyong feels really scared. This is fun.

"I don't actually have high requirements for acting skills. On the contrary, if these actors reveal a little flaw during the performance, I'm more looking forward to it and more in line with the overall style and plot of the film. I believe I'm still more professional in this regard. Mr. Fang, you don't have to worry too much."

After Duan answered Fang Liyong's doubts, he became flirting with evil spirits and stopped talking.

He guessed that Fang Liyong would have nothing to say.

Sure enough, Fang Liyong was blocked by his answer and was silent for a while before saying, "Is the food and accommodation situation of the crew okay? I think you'd better do a survey and collect your opinions on food and accommodation. If there are any bad places to live or eat badly, just tell me, after all, it's not easy for everyone to go to such a far place to make movies. We don't have much to do, and we can't be wronged by eating and living."

Duan smiled in his stomach: This guy seems to be really scared.

Seeing his expression of "It's really not easy for them" was completely empathetic and putting himself in. He probably thought of the horror scene if he wanted to stay in this place for a month, and he was very moved at this moment.

Seeing Du Ann not speaking, Fang Liyong said again: "This place is really good. If you don't say it, I really wouldn't have thought it would be a deserted island a few months ago. Look at the road surface, this house, and the design style of these buildings, it looks fashionable when you put it in Shanghai."

Duan's evil taste is really not overwhelming. Not only did he not use Fang Liyong's words, he found an excuse to leave and go to Kang Junan to guide his work, leaving Fang Liyong here alone.

Have a good taste of fear, this kind of opportunity is not always available.

"This angle is not right. If you take it, the face will appear deformed. You should go up a little and pull down a few degrees."

Duan, who had slipped here, pulled Kang Junan and pointed at a camera at the door of a bungalow.

In addition to regular shots of "Trumen's World", there are many shots that are shot by cameras, which he had already told Kang Junan.

Compared with professional cameras, the camera is definitely not as good as the size, performance, picture presentation, and detail capture. It will be obvious on the big screen. Even if they have purchased it according to the highest standards, the room for improvement is limited.

But that's exactly what Duane needs.

"Trumen's World" tells the story of a person living in a live broadcast world. There are more images that are obviously shot by a camera, which will make the audience intuitively feel that "this is a live broadcast world", which is the so-called lens language.

During the process of being a director, Duane learned and understood more and more things, such as lens language: at first he didn't know what lens language was, but later he thought that lens language was pictures, light, composition, and now, he further expanded his understanding of lens language to the aspect of equipment.

The obvious different pictures taken by different equipment are also a kind of lens language.

Kang Junan tilted his head and looked at it, walked up to stroll around the camera, then moved the camera installed on the fence of the bungalow yard with the fixture as Duan ordered, and turned around and asked, "Is this OK?"

Duan looked at it, gestured at his body again, nodded, "Absolutely."

Just talking is not possible, you have to use facts to speak.

After Kang Junan walked around the camera again, the two walked to the monitor, found the camera in the channel, and put it backwards, and compared the scenes of Kang Junan walking before moving and after moving. After comparison, they found that there was indeed a slight gap.

Although the gap is very small from the monitor, it is very eye-catching if it is enlarged onto the big screen. This is also the difference between movies and TV series. Due to screen limitations, many details will not be noticed by people. Movies are different. This often requires actors to have better performance abilities. This is why the status of movie actors is far from comparable to TV actors.

After seeing the comparison screen, Kang Junan joked: "It seems that you didn't do live broadcasts in vain. This is really sensitive to the camera's sense of smell."

Duan said: "That's right, I may not be as good as you in photography, but when it comes to playing with cameras, you are probably not my opponent now." He looked at Kang Junan again, stood up, and said: "Take the camera on it and study how to adjust the aperture of that scene in a while..."

When he got busy, he forgot that he had come over and deliberately disgusted Fang Liyong, and was completely immersed in work. While walking back and forth, Duan's vest was sweating for a while.

The weather on Nanshu Island is really good enough. It's almost December, but the sun is still so bright and the temperature is high. Duane can sweat when wearing long sleeves.

Still busy, the first scene of "Trumen's World" finally started filming.
Chapter completed!
