What kind of bad thoughts can the director have?

Chapter 214 Worth looking forward to
The post-production of "The Last Days of Devils" is relatively simple. There are no major battle scenes that require special effects processing. Although there are some special effects that increase the sense of age, they have already started to be produced. Next, the screen synthesis, and then dubbing and soundtrack will be enough. It will take about two months Can be done within.

Since it is related to the plot of "Warrior", it has the meaning of a side story, in order to keep the style consistent, the soundtrack is still used by the soundtrack artist Sunan.

However, instead of using "Velvet Flower" as the main theme, a similar music was created, adding the regional characteristics of southern Shandong.

In order to meet the theme of scenic spots, the song "Playing My Beloved Pipa" was chosen as the ending song in the final play.

This is also an old routine, catering to the expectations and habits of the audience. There is nothing unique in this respect, not to mention that this song is a typical Lunan minor.

Yang Shu, as the producer, actually continued to lead the post-production work, and was very satisfied with the results.

Liu Man didn't care that he meddled in everything, but was happy and relaxed.

Some artists are very concerned about the so-called independence of creation, and regard their works as a display of personal ability and an expression of thought.

Of course, Liu Man also had such feelings, but since the creation of "Lovers at the Table", she was fooled by Yang Shu and gave up her independence. All the works are collaborations between the two.

After a long time, she got used to this mode, not to mention "The Beginning" and "The End of the Devil" Yang Shu did not hesitate to let her be the director, so why not do it.

She said to Yang Shu in private: "There seems to be a Stockholm effect between the two of us. You are willing to control everything, but I am willing to be controlled by you."

Perhaps there is this factor. When men and women are affectionate, they can accept anything, and sacrifice is equal to dedication.

On the other hand, this is also the norm in the industry. The so-called independence is usually hypocritical for novices, and once they become famous, they don't care at all.

Many well-known big directors, including Director Zhang and Director Chen, in their mid-to-late works, one-third of the shots were directed by themselves, which is not bad.

Once a script project is established, it is a conscientious artist who can personally storyboard, and then the work is assigned to the so-called on-site director, executive director or assistant director, etc. to execute the shooting.

No matter what the name of these directors is, they are actually gunmen, and these big directors actually play the role of producer, checking the quality of the product.

Most industries have routines similar to Moyu. The director Moyu and the actors naturally follow Moyu. Every day before the filming starts, I ask: "Is Director Zhang personally directing the film today? Will Director Chen come to the scene today?"

If they don't come, actors with a little wrist will dare not to recite their lines, and use various advanced methods to ask the assistant to remind them, and the arrogant ones even use a teleprompter.

In contrast, Yang Shu did the opposite, went to the battle to do everything well, and then asked his beloved woman to sign.

If this is not love, then it is really sad.

But no matter how much you love, it is impossible to cover everything in detail. Liu Man is also a professional director, and many things can be done well as long as he points out the direction.

So in mid-July, Yangshu began to prepare for the filming of "The Three-Body Problem", while investing funds to promote the production of special effects, and at the same time began to build the Hong'an base.

This is very important. One-third of the plot in the first season took place at the Red Coast base.

The interior scenes of the base can be completed in the studio, but it is difficult to find a suitable place to replace the exterior scenes.

Yang Shu thought about using space, aviation, military radar stations and other places to shoot, especially long-wave radar, there may be that kind of cauldron.

However, he went to several places and was not satisfied. In some cases, the environment did not match the description in the book, but in most cases, the pot was not big enough, or the appearance was too ordinary.

As a last resort, Yang Shu came up with the idea of ​​setting up a scene, when Hei Niuchen provided a very useful piece of news.

Yang Shu didn't want to use fixed stars in his own works, but the directors have similar laziness and like to cooperate with familiar people again and again, so Hei Niuchen will participate in the first season of "Three-Body Problem" , who plays Ye Wenjie's husband Yang Weining in the play.

Yang Weining is the chief engineer of the Hong'an Base, and was once a student of Ye Wenjie's father. Ye Wenjie happened to be a freshman when he graduated from graduate school.

This kind of relationship easily reminds Yang Shu of Fu Yaming and Chen Shu. Chen Shu is also a student of his father, and Fu Yaming also entered the first year of Chinese opera when he graduated.

It was Yang Weining who made an exception and brought Ye Wenjie to the Red Bank base, and the story of the three-body problem happened. However, he was a typical intellectual of that era, timid and cautious, and only wanted to keep himself safe.

Later, he discovered the secret of Ye Wenjie sending signals to alien civilizations, so he was killed by Ye Wenjie.

So in the first season, Hei Niuchen and Niangniang will play the husband and wife. As the chief engineer of the Hong'an base, he is quite attentive in finding the filming location of the Hong'an base.

After all, it is easy to do things with a military background. He told Yang Shu that in a mountain north of Zhangjiakou, there is an abandoned military radar station on a steep mountain top surrounded by forests, which is very similar to the description in the book.

And also sent a few photos, Yang Shu looked pretty good.

The key is that it can be modified according to the needs after being discarded.

So after completing the formalities with the relevant departments, Yang Shu took Ning Song, the artist, props, Hei Niuchen and a group of people to inspect the site.

The radar station has been abandoned for at least ten years, and the buildings are dilapidated and old, but they have a sense of age.

The radomes are riddled with holes and not big enough.

These are not problems. The building can be repaired, and the radome can be transformed into the required size and shape. The important thing is that it saves a lot of trouble with this foundation, and it is more realistic than a fully built scene.

The whole group was very satisfied, this place was like the second Red Bank base, and even the cliff where Ye Wenjie murdered was ready-made.

Artists and prop masters roughly calculated that it might take one and a half months to transform this radar station into a Red Coast base, at least 300 million.

300 million is not too expensive to set up a base. Yang Shu immediately made a decision to start the transformation immediately. "Three-Body" is trying to start in September. It is not too cold at that time, and it is more convenient to shoot.

The traffic in this place is inconvenient, and there is no communication signal. Once I come up to shoot, I may have to live here, and then work continuously for a week to shoot all the shots that need to be shot.

These are not problems. The professional crew and actors are used to working in the field, but they have to say hello to the empress in advance, and they will have to suffer for a few days.

The construction of the Hong'an base has started, and the news spreads, and the Internet is boiling.

Yang Shu took advantage of the trend and posted a wave of makeup photos. Sun Li's Ye Wenjie and Yu Hewei's Shi Qiang all received a lot of praise.

"Although the movie hasn't been filmed yet, it's worth looking forward to seeing this lineup."

"Poplar trees are always worth looking forward to."

It seems too early to use the word forever.

Surprisingly, Hei Niuchen played the cautious Yang Weining, which was unanimously recognized, which was a bit beyond Yang Shu's expectation.

"This guy looks a bit useless, and finally someone wants to go with me."

I hope Hei Niuchen didn't see this kind of comment, otherwise it would really hurt my self-esteem.

At the end of August, the production of "The Devil's End Is Coming" was completed and sent to various platforms for review.

In mid-September, the renovation of the Red Coast base was completed, and the interior scenes were also built. All preparations for "Three-Body Problem" were ready.

On the morning of September NO.18, "Three-Body Problem" was officially launched at the China Film Film and Television Production Center.
