Chapter 107 This is a story about a young hero
"Art branding, what is this?"

Looking at the system prompts, Chen Cheng was a little confused about what this [Art Brand] was.

However, after checking, I found that the system did not explain it.

But Chen Cheng didn't have too much trouble.

Although I don’t know what this art brand is.

But when the art attribute reached 80 points, Chen Cheng felt as if the clouds had cleared and the sun was shining.

Things that I hadn't figured out before, I suddenly understood.

Some things that were not clear before suddenly became completely clear.

More importantly, Xiao Wu was amazed by the random painting that Chen Cheng drew.

"Brother Cheng, this piece of your work is amazing."

Looking at the painting that Chen Cheng had just drawn, Xiao Wu was so excited that he couldn't control himself.

Chen Cheng was a little confused: "How can it be so amazing? I just drew it casually."

"This, this, this, Brother Cheng, you are really disappointing me. After seeing your paintings, I feel that I will never be able to reach such a height in my lifetime."

"is it?"

Chen Cheng picked up his painting and looked at it carefully.

But maybe because he drew it himself, Chen Cheng didn’t feel too much.

At most, it feels a little different from before.

But Chen Cheng couldn't say exactly where the difference was.

"Haha, art is inherently fantasy."

Chen Cheng smiled.

But now Chen Cheng is in a very good mood.

He felt that everything he saw seemed to be able to be painted.

A week later.

After finishing his last painting, Chen Cheng took Xiao Wu and Da Long with him and headed for Gansu.

With Chen Cheng's current identity, he no longer needs to report to anyone.

Xiao Wu and Da Long can totally act as his assistants.

of course.

If there is an opportunity, Dalong can also take on some action scenes in the crew.

……

"Brother Cheng, our drama is from Hong Kong, why did we have to film it in the mainland?"

"It's very simple. Hong Kong is not that big. They will focus on the mainland in the future. Besides, this movie is not just a Hong Kong drama. We also have mainland China Film Group invested in it."

Although Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon is a Hong Kong film, it was produced by three companies.

One is Hong Kong, another is South Korea, and the other is China Film Corporation in mainland China.

Hong Kong is not a big place to begin with.

There is simply no place in Hong Kong to film such a large-scale Three Kingdoms scene.

The filming location for "Ascension of the Dragon", where most of the shooting took place, was in Zhangye, Gansu.

This is a famous historical city, named after Huo Qubing.

Place the shooting location here.

On the one hand, the geographical environment here is highly similar to the script.

On the other hand, it may also be because whether it is Huo Qubing or Zhao Zilong in The Dragon Resurrection, they both tell the legend of a young hero.

"Young hero."

He silently repeated these words.

Afterwards, Chen Cheng looked at the script carefully and wrote biographies of some of the main characters.

This is a habit Chen Cheng has developed.

As an art director, although he is not a director, an art director must also have the thinking of a director.

An art director without a director’s mindset is useless no matter how good his art is.

The script is well written.

But it is different from the official history of the Three Kingdoms.

The drama Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon made a series of historical common sense errors from the very beginning.

For example, Zhao Zilong did not join Liu Bei as a soldier, but defected to Liu Bei from Gongsun Zan.

Zhao Yun did not die in battle, but died of illness.

Deng Zhi also died of illness at the age of 78, which was considered a long life. He also served as an envoy to Eastern Wu.

In addition, Zhao Yun did not return to his hometown in Changshan after rescuing Adou.

As for why.

That was because Changshan belonged to Cao Cao's sphere of influence at that time, and Zhao Yun couldn't go home even if he wanted to.

In addition, Changshan is located in the Central Plains.

After Zhao Yun followed Liu Bei, he never set foot in the Central Plains again.

Of course, there is also the historical issue of Liu Bei flying the Han flag. At that time, the Han Dynasty was still in place, so it was impossible for Liu Bei to fly the banner with Chinese characters.

However, Hong Kong screenwriters have always been taught history by physical education teachers, and the many messy problems in the historical dramas they shoot have been an old problem for many years.

Or.

They didn't take history very seriously, they just wanted to use the Three Kingdoms as a cover and tell the legendary story of a young hero.

So Chen Cheng didn't complain about it.

It's none of his business.

Fortunately, although the play "Seeing the Dragon Resurrection" has many problems in history, it is generally well filmed.

Especially as time goes by, this not-very-historical Three Kingdoms-themed movie has been applauded and praised every time it is mentioned.

But now.

The problem Chen Cheng needs to solve is that as an art director, he must solve the problem of the flying saucer hat in his previous life.

At the same time, the problem of Japanese-style armor must also be solved.

In fact, this problem was exposed in the previous life, and many people complained about it.

But due to various reasons, it was not changed in the end.

Here, Chen Cheng looked at one of the producers and almost understood.

One of the producers is from South Korea. I don’t know if it was because of the pressure from there that this happened.

……

There is no airport in Zhangye.

It took Chen Cheng a long time to travel from Hengdian to Zhangye.

When he arrived at the Zhangye crew, Chen Cheng had already spent more than 12 hours on the road.

Fortunately, the crew’s first location was not moved directly to the large military camp, but was set up in the center of Zhangye County.

"Chen Cheng, have you arrived at the crew?"

"arrive."

"Mr. Han from China Film Group wants to see you. He's in room 888."

"Boss Han, who is it?"

"Mr. Han from China Film Group, who do you think it is?"

"Oh my god, it can't be Mr. Han." As soon as he arrived at the crew, Chen Cheng received a call from Wang Hua.

"Yes, it's Mr. Han."

"Well, Mr. Han wants to see me?"

"Yes."

"Brother Hua, am I going to get rich?"

"What are you talking about? China Film Group is also one of the producers of this film. He just wants to meet you. Besides, you were able to get the resources this time because Mr. Xu asked Mr. Han for help."

"Oh, I see."

Chen Cheng understood what Wang Hua said.

After putting his luggage away, Chen Cheng took a rest and then went to room 888.

"Hello, Director Han."

Looking at Han Sanping, Chen Cheng greeted him excitedly.

This person is a very important figure in the country.

even.

Only a big boss like this can really ban your existence with just one sentence.

However, although the outside world has spread rumors that Han Sanping is a bit mysterious, Han Sanping is not as scary as the legend says.

At least when Chen Cheng met Han Sanping, he smiled and said, "You call me Director Han? I haven't made a movie in many years. I also graduated from Beijing Film Academy."

"Yes, yes, I almost forgot."

But seeing Chen Cheng so excited, Han Sanping said, "Don't get too excited. I just studied at Beijing Film Academy for a while, so I can't be considered a fellow student."

"Uh……"

Chen Cheng was overwhelmed.

This old man Han's temper is so fickle that it's really hard to figure him out.

But isn't that what big guys do?
"Not long ago, you worked in a certain production crew?"

"Yes, I worked there for more than two months. I was mainly responsible for makeup."

"I was at your opening ceremony."

"Ah, are you here?"

Chen Cheng was stunned.

At that time, he didn't care who was coming.

“Hehe, maybe you’re too into your work.”

Han Sanping smiled again.

Then he said, "I have bad news for you. We have a new art director for this film."

"Art director?"

Chen Cheng frowned: "How come there is a position of art director?"

Generally, there is no position of art director in film and television dramas.

For the position of art director, usually those top retired masters are invited to put their name on the list.

Even if they are not just a figurehead, art directors usually just give suggestions and rarely appear on the crew.

Equivalent to the consultant of this film.

Simultaneously.

In terms of the domestic filming system, "art director" generally refers to "art director."

But now.

In the crew of See You, Resurrection of the Dragon, there appeared an art director and a production designer.

"There's nothing strange about this. If the producer says it should be there, then it will be there."

Han Sanping didn't say much: "But I think having an additional art director is a bit of a hindrance. You can handle it later."

"I understand."

Because it was their first meeting, Chen Cheng and Han Sanping didn't talk much.

After going back.

Chen Cheng called Wang Hua and asked, "Brother Wang, why did Hong Kong send an art director here?"

Wang Hua was also stunned: "How could this happen? Wait a minute, I'll help you check it out."

Half an hour later.

Chen Cheng received a call from Wang Hua: "I checked it out. This was arranged by the Korean producer. They said that both Korea and Japan were very interested in the Three Kingdoms theme, so they added an art director to add some international style."

"International style?"

Chen Cheng understood.

So this is how the flying saucer hat and Japanese armor came from in my previous life.

The Three Kingdoms flying saucer hat is really international.

"Brother Hua, the art director is here, what should I do as an art director?"

"Do what you have to do."

"How can this be done?"

"Chen Cheng, don't take it too seriously. He's from the production company, there's no need to offend him."

"Brother Hua, how about I pack up and go home and let them do it."

"How can this be possible? Although this drama is not as good as Curse of the Golden Flower, it is also a big production. Superstar Andy Lau is the male lead and Hong Jinbao is the martial arts instructor... You don't want such resources. You are crazy."

"In that case, I will drive that person away."

"Uh... don't mess around."

"Someone told me to mess around."

"???"

Wang Hua didn't quite understand, and Chen Cheng didn't explain it clearly either.

It's hard to say this.

I didn’t expect the relationship between producers to be so complicated.

But Chen Cheng didn't think so much.

His interests coincide with Han Sanping's, and neither of them wants to see this so-called art director.

There are already art directors, so why do we need him as a fine arts director?

If they really exist at the same time.

When the audience sees the credits later, they will wonder, is the art director more important, or the production designer?
