Huayu special effects started in 97

After hearing Jiang Heng's news that "Jurassic World" will most likely be released in June next year, Zhang Yimou was indeed a little nervous, because the disadvantages of "The Great Wall" were too obvious.

"Jurassic World" is a big IP movie, while his Qin version of "The Great Wall" is an original story.

As for the actors, the male lead Huang Xuan and the female lead Yang Mi are not well-known internationally, not to mention the other characters.

Although "Jurassic World" uses dinosaurs as its selling point, it will not spend a lot of money to invite Hollywood's first-tier stars, but it will always choose one from the second- or third-tier familiar faces.

In addition to the former's modern story, his film is about the distant ancient East, so no matter how you calculate it, he is at a slight disadvantage.

If it is released in the same period or later, it will definitely suffer a loss.

The only thing we can do now is to speed up the shooting progress and release the film ahead of schedule.

At the same time, Jiang Heng can be invited to make a cameo appearance to increase the popularity of the cast!

Zhang Yimou expressed his thoughts, and Jiang Heng had no objection. He smiled and said, "Look, let me play a cameo role!"

Zhang Yimou glanced at Zhang Ruolan who was chatting with Yang Mi at the side, "How about you two play a young couple?"

Jiang Heng smiled, "You're not going to ask us to play Meng Jiangnu and Fan Xiliang, are you?"

Zhang Yimou smiled and waved his hands, "Not really, not really. You are so good at Kung Fu, you must play a master in the movie!"

Jiang Heng said: "I only need half a day!"

"I know. Half a day is enough. I will definitely help you finish the filming!"

In Jiang Heng's mind, the image of Chief Leader Chen, played by Damian Lau, suddenly emerged. He was so handsome and pretentious and then quickly left the filming.

The reason is very simple, because Liu Songren didn't have any schedule, he just came here to make a guest appearance.

It's just that his appearance was too stunning, and his death was too sloppy, and the contrast was too great, so that the audience still can't forget it after so many years.

He wouldn't do this, right? He couldn't do this, right? Jiang Heng muttered to himself.

He immediately waved to Zhang Ruolan and told him about the guest appearance, the latter looked surprised.

Because two months ago, she was just a high school student studying in a vocational high school. Now, not only has she become the heroine of "The Three-Body Problem 2", but she will also make a cameo appearance in Zhang Yimou's blockbuster, and play a couple with director Jiang Heng in the film. It's really exciting to think about it!
Yang Mi, who was standing by, could only sigh secretly after hearing this. This girl's luck is really too good!
After the guest appearance was agreed upon, Zhang Yimou called in the screenwriter to set the identities of Jiang Heng and Zhang Ruolan.

Without much thought, Jiang Heng was given the identity of a court envoy, and Zhang Ruolan was the princess of Daqin.

The Qin State valued martial arts, and its princesses were very different from those in later generations who were never allowed to leave the house and were strictly controlled by rules.

Zhang Ruolan plays a princess with good fighting skills. Because she misses her elder brother Fusu who is guarding the northern border, she secretly hides in the convoy of the court envoy played by Jiang Heng.

Because the two have already made an engagement, the envoy played by Jiang Heng is happy to take the princess north with him.

After they arrived in the north, they encountered a wave of monsters. The two climbed up the city wall and bravely killed the monsters. In the end, they both died to save Prince Fusu.

Jiang Heng looked at the script that the screenwriter had written on the spur of the moment, and was both angry and amused. "Can all this be filmed in half a day?"

The screenwriter looked embarrassed, "I just wanted to make it more reasonable!"

Zhang Yimou advised: "Anyway, our two crews are close to each other, so when we are ready to shoot, we will prepare in advance and then pick you up!"

Jiang Heng said: "I will be here for at most a month, then I have to go to Northern Europe to shoot the exterior scenes!"

Zhang Yimou said: "I know, I know, I will refine the scenes a little more and I guarantee that we can finish filming soon!"

"All right!"

After all, it was their own film, so Jiang Heng didn't want to bother about those things.

First they tried on clothes and put on makeup, shot a few scenes, ate lunch together at noon, and continued shooting in the afternoon. It was already past eight in the evening when they finished all the work. Zhang Yimou wanted to arrange dinner, but Jiang Heng waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Filming is so tiring now, so let's not do those empty things. When we are done, we can eat and drink well!"

Zhang Yimou was born in 50 and is over this year. After a busy day on the set, drinking, eating and chatting, it would be a bit too much for him.

I could only say apologetically, "This meal is what I owe you. I'll treat you guys to a meal after we finish filming!"

Zhang Ruolan looked flattered and quickly said no, no.

After leaving the crew and getting into the Mercedes-Benz S600, Zhang Ruolan sat obediently in the passenger seat like a quail.

Jiang Heng was driving the car and said with a smile, "You must be starving, is there anything you want to eat?"

Zhang Ruolan nodded slightly, "Just eat whatever you want!"

Jiang Heng said: "If you say it's up to you, then I'll make all the arrangements!" He then drove to a hot pot restaurant not far from the China Film Digital Base.

As soon as he entered the room, the beautiful female receptionist came forward and bowed, smiling and said, "Director Jiang, is this still your private box?"

Jiang Heng said: "No need, there are only two of us, just change to a smaller one!"

"Okay, this way please!"

Zhang Ruolan followed him upstairs with a look of surprise and came to a private room of moderate size that was exquisitely and luxuriously decorated.

After ordering the dishes, the receptionist left the room. Zhang Ruolan asked curiously, "Do you come here often?"

Jiang Heng smiled, "Not only do I come here often, this hot pot restaurant is also a subsidiary of the company!"

"Ah?"

Zhang Ruolan was very surprised. She knew that the company had a real estate development company and had developed many real estate projects and commercial complexes in Beijing in recent years. She didn't know that the company had also entered the catering industry.

Jiang Heng said: "There is too much money on the company's books. We can't keep it in the bank forever. We must invest it. Catering, tourism, hotels, pharmaceuticals... We opened this hot pot restaurant so that we can eat out conveniently when filming!"

Zhang Ruonan nodded slightly. She understood what Jiang Heng meant. As a big star, it was too easy to be secretly photographed outside. It would be much more convenient if she had her own store!
I couldn't help but sigh, "How amazing!"

Jiang Heng smiled, "It's nothing. When you have a lot of money, you will find that it is very easy for money to make money. It is like money has the ability to reproduce. It will multiply by itself and become more and more!"

Speaking of this, Jiang Heng suddenly thought of "The Richest Man in Xihong City".

You can produce it in advance and let Zhang Ruolan play the female lead!

“Want to do a comedy?”

"what!"

Zhang Ruolan was stunned, not knowing how Jiang Heng's thoughts jumped over.

"I, I can't!"

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "It's okay, the funny thing isn't you anyway!"

"Oh!" The girl lowered her head, somewhat shocked.

Jiang Heng said to himself, "Well, after the filming of The Three-Body Problem 2 is finished, I will let you star in a comedy, and your fame will be consolidated a lot. When you go to Beijing Film Academy or the Central Academy of Drama to study, you must also take time out to film one or two works a year...!"

After hearing this, Zhang Ruolan felt that Jiang Heng was really nice and thought so long-term and thoroughly for her.

"Director Jiang, you are really, so nice!" (End of this chapter)
