Rebirth: I'm filming extra scenes on the set

Chapter 109 Fighting with the Xiangjiang Team

"Everyone, we are almost all here behind the scenes today, let's have a meeting first."

After the auditions of the actors for Resurrection of the Dragon were over, director Li Rengang went to the crew immediately.

The filming hasn't started yet, so Li Rengang decided to hold a meeting first.

"Chen Cheng, can you tell me how the set preparations are going?"

After looking at Chen Cheng, Li Rengang said.

Chen Cheng thought for a moment and said, "For the set design, we have two main aspects. One is the main battlefield, which is the Guazhou Cultural Protection Zone in Gansu Province where we are located. The other is Zhao Zilong's hometown in Changshan, which is smaller in scale and has been arranged by the external production. For the main battlefield, we contacted the relevant person in charge of the local department and chose a hilltop in the Guazhou Cultural Protection Zone to build a temple as the base camp of the Shu army. The advantage of doing so is that on the one hand, it will not damage the local environment, and on the other hand, after our crew finishes filming, this place will be developed into a tourist attraction."

"The costume and prop design has been completed. In three days, the costumes of the main actors will arrive at the crew. When shooting on location, there may be a lot of circus. My suggestion is to train the crew members on horseback for a period of time... This is the design rendering of the location, and this is the design rendering of the costume and props."

As he spoke, Chen Cheng distributed the plan to everyone.

As art director.

undoubtedly.

The previous life's version of things like flying saucer hats, Japanese clothing... were all corrected by Chen Cheng.

The costumes of all the actors are designed to be uniformly styled like Han Dynasty costumes.

but.

In order to prepare for the filming, Chen Cheng made certain modifications to the costumes of some important actors to enhance their appearance.

In addition, Chen Cheng made certain revisions to many historical issues in the previous version.

For example, the issue of the flags used by the Shu camp.

And the map exposed the problems of the Battle of Red Cliffs in advance, etc.

However, Chen Cheng is only an art director, and it is impossible for him to correct all problems.

Like the ending of the protagonist Zhao Zilong.

There is no such character as Cao Ying in history.

These cannot be modified.

Even the director cannot make changes.

If this is modified, then "The Dragon Resurrects" will not be "The Dragon Resurrects" anymore, but a historical drama of another style.

"As for the character modeling, I just got the cast list yesterday, so the character modeling has not been fully completed yet. But before that, I still drew a lot of character modeling renderings based on the script, and you can take a look at them."

As someone working behind the scenes, you have to get a series of things done before filming.

obviously.

Chen Cheng did a very good job.

Li Rengang and producer Zheng Taiyuan both nodded.

"Old Li, that's good. Fortunately, the art director was not included."

Zheng Taiyuan whispered to Li Rengang.

Li Rengang glanced at Zheng Taiyuan and said, "If it weren't for me, they would probably have fought. Fortunately, Chen Cheng is enough."

undoubtedly.

The two were very satisfied with Chen Cheng's performance.

"As expected of someone from the crew of Curse of the Golden Flower, Chen Cheng, not bad."

Li Rengang praised generously, saying, "From this point of view, our behind-the-scenes work is almost ready."

"OK then. In order to help you better understand the style of our drama, here is a video for you to enjoy."

talking.

Li Rengang asked his assistant to play a video.

In the video, a young man with a silver spear and a white horse, galloping like a meteor, caught everyone's attention.

"Chen Cheng..."

Many people saw that the person in the camera was Chen Cheng.

"I go……"

Chen Cheng secretly said that this was not good.

It’s not that he thinks his video was not well shot.

Li Rengang's recognition of this shows that this video is very well shot.

But it’s awesome.

As soon as this video came out, hatred was instantly attracted.

This is not.

Chen Cheng could already feel the gazes of some other people in charge behind the scenes.

"It seems that Director Chen is not only very good at art, but also very good at filming."

The director of photography said this with a half-smile.

"That's right. People who don't know would think Chen Cheng is Zhao Zilong."

have to.

Chen Cheng glanced at Li Rengang.

Li Rengang slapped his head and gave Chen Cheng an apologetic look: "Okay, I asked Director Chen to shoot this video. It will take a few days before we leave the camera. Everyone, make the final preparations."

Li Rengang then kept Chen Cheng and said, "Chen Cheng, I was abrupt during the meeting just now. Please don't mind. If you encounter any trouble in the crew in the future, just come to me first."

"It's okay, Director Li, don't worry, I can handle it."

Everything had happened, and Chen Cheng no longer worried about it.

not to mention.

Having been in the crew for such a long time, how could Chen Cheng not know about a lot of things going on in the crew.

Although there is less wrangling behind the scenes than in front of them, competition is common.

Even if there was no video, I would probably encounter a series of problems in the subsequent work.

As for the reason, it's simple.

Because the behind-the-scenes team and producers of See You Resurrection of the Dragon are also divided into three parts.

Because of geographical reasons.

The number of behind-the-scenes personnel sent by the South Korean side is small and can be ignored.

Mainly from the mainland and Hong Kong.

For example, the photography team, martial arts guidance team, and production team are all from Hong Kong.

The art team and the stage management team are from the mainland.

Relatively speaking.

The mainland behind-the-scenes team is much weaker.

……

"Fuck, that Hong Kong guy really doesn't treat us mainlanders as human beings."

"That's right. I think everyone is great and everyone is a big shot. I don't even want to serve them anymore."

"I've told you long ago that the bird people in Hong Kong are not easy to deal with, but you still joined this crew."

As soon as the two teams came into contact, a conflict broke out within just two or three days.

"Coach Chen, you have to help us."

The head of the production team and several group leaders complained to Chen Cheng.

no way.

Chen Cheng is the art director, although he is not the biggest one in the crew.

But for the time being, as an art director from the mainland like them, he has become their boss.

Chen Cheng understood everyone's feelings and said, "Don't worry, I will go and negotiate for you."

of course.

Said it was negotiation.

But it was never a negotiation.

Whether in front of the stage or behind the scenes, everything depends on strength.

If you don't have the ability, you won't be able to have such a position.

If you don't have the ability, your job will be taken away.

"Coach Wei, we are all working together, even though we are on different teams. There is no need to make things difficult for everyone."

Chen Cheng found Wei Hai, the deputy director of the martial arts guidance team.

Wei Hai is a member of the Hong Family Class.

Martial arts director Hong Jinbao has not arrived yet, and Wei Hai is in charge of martial arts guidance.

"These extras are just acting idiots. They don't take the filming seriously at all. I'm training them."

"Is there such a training? We are all ordinary people, so we are naturally not as good as your martial arts team. How can they bear to ride horses for several hours? There are already several people who can't get out of bed after riding horses so hard."

"We are all human beings, why can't they bear it? Besides, it was you who told me to do horseback riding training during the meeting. I am just following your instructions, don't you think? In addition, our drama has a lot of circus and war scenes... If we really want to shoot them, sometimes we have to stand on horseback for several hours. I am training in advance to avoid affecting the filming."

"Director Wei, there's no need to do this. We've all filmed before, and we all know whether it's difficult or not."

"Then you should report to Director Li."

Wei Hai laughed loudly. Dozens of Hong Kong martial artists behind him even whistled: "Little brother, you are awesome. I heard you are also an art director. Isn't the job of an art director to guide everyone on how to shoot educational action scenes?"

Chen Cheng's face turned cold.

The other person laughed even harder.

Chen Cheng said: "In this case, why don't I play with you all."

"Oh, what to play."

Seeing that Chen Cheng was angry, Wei Hai became even more interested.

"Just do as you said, ride a horse."

"How to ride."

“If you can catch up with me, even if you win, everything on the crew will be up to you from now on.

"This is interesting. Why didn't you say that we lost?"

"Even if you lose, you will still cheat, so I will just play with you."

"Good boy, get on the horse."

Wei Hai looked at Chen Cheng viciously.

Then he said to the martial artists behind him: "Catch up with this guy and kick him off his horse."

Chen Cheng seemed to have heard it and said, "Coach Wei, don't tell your little brothers. Why don't you go up yourself? Are you afraid?"

"You are seeking death."

……

"Brothers, let's fight."

"what's the situation?"

"The art director stood up for us and wanted to compete with the Hong Kong guy in horse riding."

"Oh my god, how can we compare them? Those Hong Kong guys are all martial artists, martial artists, horseback riding experts. Is Coach Chen going to die?"

Seeing the camp set up in front, a group of people behind the scenes gathered around.

Of course, this situation also attracted the attention of director Li Rengang.

Li Rengang wanted to stop it, but producer Zheng Taiyuan said, "Rengang, the crew often does this. Even if you can stop it, it's only today. If they don't decide the winner, it will affect our filming."

"Headache."

Li Rengang pressed his temple.

He also knows this.

Often when two places co-produce a drama, these messy problems will arise.

"Are you ready?"

Looking at Chen Cheng in front of him, Wei Hai licked his lips and said, "In three minutes, I will definitely catch you."

Chen Cheng smiled and said, "3 minutes, I'll give you 30 minutes."

Say it.

With a shout of "go", Chen Cheng spurred his horse into a gallop.

Wei Hai also shouted and led a group of brothers to chase after Chen Cheng.

Everyone is a good horse rider, and the terrain here is open and there is a desert, which is very suitable for horse riding.

All they saw was thick smoke rising.

Chen Cheng was leading in the front, and Wei Hai, the deputy martial arts instructor, was chasing after him from behind.

"Coach Chen is amazing. His horse riding skills are amazing."

"I thought Coach Chen was just a scholar before, but now it seems that I misunderstood."

Seeing Chen Cheng riding the horse so easily, everyone cheered for Chen Cheng.

Wei Hai was also stunned. He didn't expect Chen Cheng to be so good at riding horses.

But he was not in a hurry because he was confident in his riding skills.

Even though Chen Cheng can ride a horse, he can only do it for a few minutes at most.

But Wei Hai made another mistake.

Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

Chen Cheng turned around and shouted, "Wei Hai, three minutes have passed. Are you going to catch me? Come on."

"Damn it, just wait for me."

Wei Hai held his breath and whipped the horse hard.

But a pity.

No matter how hard Wei Hai chased, he was always several meters away from Chen Cheng.

In a blink of an eye.

20 minutes have passed.

"Boss, we can't hold on any longer. Let's just forget it."

Even though horse riding only takes 20 minutes.

If you just ride slowly, it won't take 20 minutes.

But this kind of galloping.

Even people like them in the martial arts industry can't stand it.

What I can't stand the most is the buttocks and thighs.

This is not.

After running so fast for a while, the buttocks of all the martial artists were already aching.

But Wei Hai would never agree, and said: "What's the use of calculating? We must catch this guy. Go..."

Another hard whip.

But a pity.

No matter how hard Wei Hai tried, he couldn't touch Chen Cheng at all.

even.

They also used a cheating split run.

But a pity.

This is a Gobi stall, so there is plenty of space to display your skills.

Even though Wei Hai separated everyone and prepared to surround and capture Chen Cheng, it was of no use.

"What's wrong? Run, little brother Wei Hai, didn't you say you were going to catch me?"

"Come on, is it because you didn't have enough milk after going out that you don't have enough strength?"

"Are you still a man? I think all of you martial artists are just fakes. With these skills, you should go home and suck your mother's milk."

Seeing that Wei Hai and the others were about to give up, Chen Cheng turned around and cursed.

Those dragon and tiger martial artists who were originally preparing to go back were instantly energized by Chen Cheng's scolding.

"Damn it, brothers, follow me."

"You must bring this guy back to me."

"Fuck... I still don't believe we can't catch you."

result.

Accompanying a group of martial artists, Chen Cheng strolled around the vast Gobi Desert several times.

Whenever they feel like giving up.

Chen Cheng's classic Chinese curse was hurled out again: "Why, that's all?"

"No, we have a product called Huiyuan Shenbao in the mainland that sells well. Would you like to try it?"

"We also have Liuwei Dihuang Pills, which nourish the kidneys. You can try that too."

"Actually, men can take Wuji Baifeng Pills, too. Really, I've learned a little bit of Chinese medicine, I'm not lying to you."

"If you really can't do it, then you can only take the Ten-fold Tonic Pills..."

"Hey, you guys, you guys..."

I’ve seen people swearing, but I’ve never seen people swearing like this.

When have all the Hong Kong martial arts masters been scolded like this before?

Chen Cheng's curse was even more vicious than any other curse he had ever heard in his life.

He made up his mind and rushed towards Chen Cheng.

Same as before.

Even though all the warriors tried their best, they failed to catch even a piece of Chen Cheng's clothes.

Not only did he not catch anything.

Dozens of martial artists ran wildly for several hours, but finally they couldn't hold on any longer, and several of them fell off their horses.

Even if you didn't fall down.

After returning to the crew, they were still lying in bed and unable to get out of bed.
