Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 452 Regaining Life
At the end of April, Nanli Lake in Hainan, the largest artificial freshwater lake, is lush with vegetation, beautiful scenery, and has 16 islands distributed throughout the lake, which is still a natural landscape.

It is very suitable for the scene at the end where the heroine returns to Earth in the return capsule and falls into the water.

The weather here is hot, about 28 degrees Celsius, and the highest temperature can reach over degrees Celsius, which is also suitable for filming in the water.

Originally, it is not possible to shoot the scene of entering the water in one or two times. It requires many shots. It is best to have a scene like this with suitable weather and beautiful scenery.

At least it’s not cold and swimming is very comfortable. Many people have come here to escape the cold.

However, we didn’t see the bikini scenes as we had imagined. “Gravity” communicated with local authorities and rented a closed lake for filming.

There are more than a hundred people in the filming team, and it’s just a short outdoor scene, so there is no need for so many people to come.

"Wow, so beautiful." Liu Tianxian stood on the mud by the lake, looking at the scenery in the distance.

The lake is clear with rippling blue waves. In the distance there are islands that look like small hills. They are covered with tall trees, which are very lush. From time to time, small birds fly out.

"You are the only one who would come here to film like this. I wouldn't bring anyone else here to film," Fang Hong said.

"If it was someone else, where would you go to shoot it?" Liu Tianxian asked.

"If it were someone else, they would just find a lake in Beijing and take pictures if they want. If not, just get lost." Fang Hong said with a smile.

Liu Tianxian laughed and jumped on his back: "Are you so fond of me?"

"Of course." Fang Hong spun around repeatedly, making Liu Tianxian giggle.

The laughter could be heard from far away, it was very joyful.

Apart from going back to their hometown, it was the first time for the two to travel so far and visit such a beautiful place. Although they were filming a movie, it did not prevent them from using their power for personal gain.

When the two of them were playing around, the staff looked at them with envy. They worked and lived together, so it was impossible not to be envious.

Han Jianv is directing the staff to scout various locations nearby, to make plans for where to take pictures, which angle has the best scenery, where to get into the water, and where to swim ashore.

A prop called a "return capsule" also needs to be sunk into the water and fixed in position, and the heroine comes out of it to start filming.

Several boats were also rented, and staff were on the nearby lake in boats, checking the water depth of the lake.

During the shooting, not only Liu Tianxian had to go into the water, but the photographer also had to go into the water to follow the shooting.

After surfacing, there must be cameras in the air to film, and safety must be ensured throughout the process, so it is still very troublesome.

Of course, the photographers are all directed by Liu Yin!
Guo Fan didn't come, as he was in Beijing doing post-production special effects. Fang Hong could shoot the exterior scenes like this, but Han Jianu did come, as she replaced Chen Zhixi.

Chen Zhixi is the producer, but she doesn't have time, so she asks Han Jianu to come and take a look.

Hundreds of staff members were busy on the shore and by the lake.

Fang Hong had already put Liu Tianxian down. He sat on the grass and looked at her short hair: "I'm not used to your short hair."

"What's there to be uncomfortable with? It's all the same." Liu Tianxian sat next to him, looking at the scenery in the distance.

At this time, she cut off her long hair and replaced it with a neat short hair, which made people a little uncomfortable and she lost her fairy spirit, but her appearance was still very good.

This is required by the plot, astronauts don't have long hair, but fortunately there are not many shots of Liu Tianxian showing her full face.

Except for the part in the space station, there is the ending part.

"I can't press your hair down anymore." Fang Hong tilted his head and whispered.

"Go away."

Liu Tianxian patted his shoulder, knowing that he was driving.

Fang Hong smiled, put his hand on her shoulder, and watched the staff in the distance using ropes to lower a prop similar to a "return capsule".

It needs to have a certain weight, after all, it needs to sink to the bottom of the water and not float up, but it doesn't need to be particularly heavy. If it is particularly heavy, it won't need to be lifted by a rope, but by a crane.

"Should I come out of that later?" Liu Tianxian pointed.

"Haven't you filmed a flooding scene before? This time you're sinking to the bottom of the lake, and all you have to do is come out from the bottom of the lake." Fang Hong explained the scene to her.

Previously, Liu Tianxian filmed the water filling in the studio, which is not necessary here.

When we say filling water, we mean pouring water into the return capsule.

Because the return capsule is sinking, water will flow in after the hatch is opened.

As the two were chatting, the assistant director walked up to Fang Hong and pointed at the lake and said, "Principal, the water here is not deep, there are aquatic plants under the water, and the wind and waves are not strong, which meets the conditions for filming."

"Okay, let's get ready for the shoot." Fang Hong stood up and brushed off the dirt on his butt.

Liu Tianxian also stood up and prepared to work.

After hearing the instructions, the assistant director asked the staff to set up the camera. A famous photographer was going to follow Liu Tianxian into the water and needed to wear waterproof equipment.

Others also need to install instruments and equipment.

Fang Hong asked Liu Tianxian: "How good are you at swimming?"

"It's okay, no problem." Liu Tianxian said.

"You will take off your space suit underwater in a moment. Don't panic. Tell us if you have any questions. Let's stop filming and don't stay underwater for as long as last time. This segment doesn't require that kind of tension or excitement. Just film normally." Fang Hong said.

The last time Liu Tianxian was filming Now You See Me, she stayed in the water tank for a long time.

The plot is that the heroine's return capsule falls into the water, and she comes out of the return capsule wearing a space suit. The space suit needs to be taken off and then float to the surface.

"I know, don't worry."

Liu Tianxian also knew that he was doing this for her own good, so she said, "Then I'll go change my clothes."

"Go!" Fang Hong gestured.

Liu Tianxian needs to change into a gray vest and shorts, and then put on a space suit on the outside, which needs to be taken off underwater.

The shorts are similar to safety pants and will not expose your body.

Fang Hong came to the lake to check. There was a yellow wetland by the lake. He squatted on the ground and grabbed a handful of wet soil, which was very soft.

After everything was ready, it was noon, when the temperature was highest, and it was the perfect time to go into the water.

Liu Tianxian, wearing a clumsy space suit, was helped by staff to get on a small boat. The boat didn't need to be too big and was not far from the shore.

The boat swam to the middle of the lake, and the prop master instructed: "Sister Yifei, when you go into the water to shoot later, just pull the zipper in front to the bottom and it will come out."

"Okay, this thing shouldn't be heavy underwater, right?" Liu Tianxian was still worried about his own safety.

"It's not heavy, it's waterproof, it won't get wet, and it has a certain amount of oxygen, so don't worry. We just made it to look like a space suit," said the prop master.

In this case, Liu Tianxian will have no problem before going into the water for filming, but after filming she will have to hold her breath when taking off the clothes.

Liu Tianxian said she understood, made an "OK" gesture towards the shore, and then slowly went into the water with the help of others.

The photographer also went into the water carrying a camera, and there were divers nearby to assist in the filming.

This segment was filmed underwater and the camera was not turned on at the beginning.

There is also a robotic arm in the air, which can be extended to the center of the lake, making it convenient for Liu Tianxian to surface for filming. There are also photographic equipment set up on the shore.

"Be careful, and make a stop gesture if there is any problem." Fang Hong said into the walkie-talkie on the shore.

Not only to Liu Tianxian, but also to the photographers who went into the water, and other staff.

Underwater, Liu Tianxian easily entered the return capsule. There was nothing inside. The photographer was outside and there were divers helping him, but he did not appear on camera.

Fang Hong could see the underwater scene and saw that there was no problem. He said, "All units, get ready and start."

When she heard the filming was about to start, Liu Tianxian took off the helmet on her head. Water flowed into her clothes through the gaps for a while, but it was not heavy and it was normal.

It's just that she needs to hold her breath, and there is no oxygen supply to her.

Liu Tianxian was not panicked. It was not her first time shooting underwater scenes. She came out of the "return capsule" very naturally. The photographer followed her and filmed with the assistance of the divers.

Everything seemed normal and stable.

Liu Tianxian took off her space suit underwater, revealing a gray vest and black shorts, showing her tall and curvy figure. Then she swam toward the water, and at this moment, her body froze and her feet were entangled in water plants.

Fang Hong's heart tightened. It would be difficult to break free from this thing, so he quickly said into the intercom: "Go get someone to take a look."

A diver underwater rushed forward to rescue, but Liu Tianxian waved her hand to signal him not to come over. She seemed a little flustered when she waved her hand like that.

However, the diver understood what she meant and did not go over. Instead, he stood guard outside the camera, ready to rescue at any time.

This made Fang Hong quite nervous, as he was afraid that something might happen to Liu Tianxian, but knowing that she was good at swimming, he let her try.

Others who saw it were also quite nervous.

Underwater, Liu Tianxian pulled down the water grass that was hooked on her feet, similar to taking off socks, and she actually took it off. She floated up safely, with her head above the water.

Fang Hong was about to shout "click" but stopped because he found that Liu Tianxian was in good condition.

While he kept choking on water and coughing, his face showed a look of relief and relief. It was part acting, but also a natural reaction.

After all, so many years have passed, there must be some progress.

The staff did not move and remained at their posts.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"Principal, should we keep this part?" The assistant director next to him was talking about the part where the water plants were entangled.

Fang Hong thought for a moment and said, "Keep it!"

This part can be considered a small surprise, which can make the audience feel a little nervous and relieved.

That's fine, no problem.

At this time, Liu Tianxian was looking up at the sky on the water. There was a special effect in the later stage, where there were fragments like meteors passing through the sky, but nothing could be seen now.

There was a photographer sitting on the robotic arm in mid-air, just in time to record this scene.

Liu Tianxian rested on the water to recover her strength, and then swam towards the shore. Here Fang Hong did not shout "cut"!
Instead, it adopts the form of a one-shot.

"Crack!" Fang Hong suddenly shouted.

The staff didn't move. Liu Tianxian had already swam to the shore. Fang Hong walked to the shore and said, "You have to crawl. You can't use your feet at the beginning because you haven't touched the ground for a long time. You are a little uncomfortable."

"Crawling?" Liu Tianxian raised his head in confusion.

"Yes, it's just like a newborn baby, first learning to crawl, then learning to stand, then learning to walk, and finally growing up. This is the process."

Fang Hong squatted down and said: "It is the birth of life, which is a very difficult process. It means that you are reborn."

After hearing this, Liu Tianxian felt that it was quite meaningful and profound. She savored Xia Hong's words carefully, and then said, "Then I'll try it."

"It's better to swim over from the beginning from the middle of the lake." Fang Hong said, without returning to the monitor and letting the assistant director watch, he watched her perform on the shore.

How a movie ends and how it is sublimated is very important. If it ends badly, the quality of the movie will plummet.

Liu Tianxian got on the boat and was dragged by the staff to the previous position in the lake to resume filming.

"Attention all departments, let's begin." Fang Hong shouted into the intercom.

Liu Tianxian swam from the middle of the lake to the shore, and after the water became shallow, she began to crawl on the mud. This time she looked a little weak.

Seeing her crawling to the shore, Fang Hong was in front of her and instructed: "Lie flat on the ground with your face flat against the ground. Feel the excitement and gratitude of being reborn."

This is post-dubbing. There is no recording on site, so it’s okay to speak.

Liu Tianxian was all wet. As she listened to Fang Hong's story, she lay on the ground with her face pressed against the wet earth. She was breathing heavily and smelling the fishy odor of the earth.

Since she was wearing only a vest and black shorts and was lying on her stomach, revealing her dazzling long legs, her waist looked very thin and her butt was very big and perky.

I guess the audience will be excited when they see this.

The staff on site were relatively normal and didn't show anything, just their backs.

But when seeing Liu Tianxian's good figure and exquisite curves, some people still swallowed their saliva. The principal was so damn happy.

It's normal. Everyone would have dirty thoughts when seeing a beautiful woman, let alone someone like Liu Tianxian.

Liu Tianxian was still acting. She grabbed a handful of wet mud, propped herself up and stood up, but fell down again weakly.

However, she was not angry. Instead, she smiled at herself, climbed up again, and stood up slowly.

A photographer hurried over, squatted down and took a slow upward shot of her.

Liu Tianxian opened her arms, looked up at the sky, and staggered forward step by step. The photographer took a picture of her back. This is growth.

It took Liu Tianxian several days to shoot these short scenes of falling into the water, swimming, crawling, standing and walking.

"Clap clap clap!"

After the filming, there was warm applause and cheers from the audience.

The film has officially wrapped up at this point.

The shooting lasted more than two months. It can be said that this is the longest film to shoot. Sometimes a scene had to be shot dozens of times, and many difficulties were encountered in the process.

Among the two regular actors, Liu Tianxian has the longest role, and she was in the show from beginning to end without taking a single day off.

There is no way around it. Everyone takes it very seriously, simply because it is the film with the largest investment by Yutu.

Han Jianv came over on behalf of the crew with a bouquet of flowers and presented it to Liu Tianxian: "Thank you for your hard work, Yifei."

"Thank you, thank you Sister Han." Liu Tianxian's body was still wet, but she still hugged the girl from the Han family. The weather was good, so everything was fine.

The daughter of the Han family is one year older than Liu Tianxian.

Liu Tianxian held the flowers and bowed to the staff around her to express her gratitude: "Thank you all for your hard work."

"It's not hard."

Someone responded, but the applause continued.

Everyone was very excited and relieved that more than two months of living together day and night was finally over.

Fang Hong took a large towel like a bath towel and covered Liu Tianxian with it. Although Liu Tianxian didn't care much, it was better to cover up this spring view.

Liu Tianxian felt the affection of the man next to her, so she took the initiative to hug him and gave him a kiss on the face in full view of everyone.

Normally, she wouldn't take the initiative to kiss Fang Hong in front of outsiders, at most they would just say something sweet to each other.

This is probably the first time.

"Oh oh oh!"

The staff on the scene immediately started to cheer and the applause became even louder.

The scene was lively and romantic. Liu Tianxian smiled generously and separated from Fang Hong.

Fang Hong put his arm around her waist and said to everyone, "This play is finished. You can have fun in Hainan for a few days. The crew will reimburse you."

"Okay, thank you, Principal!"

"The principal is wise!"

"."

Some people cheered and shouted, everyone was very happy, traveling at public expense.

"But there's no money in the account." Han Jia'nu immediately poured a basin of cold water on her.

"No money left?" Fang Hong wondered.

Others were also surprised. The scene became quiet. Was this the end of their publicly funded trip?
Seeing the disappointed looks on the faces of the people around her, Han Jia immediately smiled and said, "I'm just joking with you guys. I even have money."

"Sister Han, this is so unkind of you. You are just teasing us." someone said.

"Just kidding!"
