Chapter 518 Emergencies
Sanwei Mountain, also known as Beiyu Mountain, is 25 kilometers southeast of Dunhuang City and stretches for 60 kilometers. The main peak is opposite the Mogao Grottoes.

It was already mid-August when more than 8 people from the "Mythology" crew came here. After getting out of the military vehicle, Wang Xiaohu set up a pergola and looked at the neat rows of tents in front of him. The side view is much better.”

"It's good, it's good, but it's too hot!" Zhao Yazhi's handsome face had two lines of sweat lying on it, holding a fan and shaking it lightly.

Wang Xiaohu chuckled, Dunhuang is connected to the desert and Lop Nur to the west, and the Gobi to the north, connecting to the rest of the Tianshan Mountains.It is high in the north and south, low in the middle, and slopes from southwest to northeast. The average altitude is less than 1200 meters, and the urban area is 1138 meters above sea level.The alluvial fan belt of the Dang River and the alluvial plain of the Shule River constitute the inland plain of Dunhuang.

The endless deserts and large oases form a unique natural feature.Because it is located inland, it is characterized by dry climate, low rainfall, large evaporation, large temperature difference between day and night, and long hours of sunshine.

The reason why he came to Dunhuang to shoot the location was that after the fight with Zhao Gang that day, in order to better understand the soldiers' familiarity with the military formation, Wang Xiaohu took some time to walk around the camp twice a day. Wang Xiaohu raised his opinion, saying that the location here is not as good as Dunhuang. According to the prompts in the script, it seems to be in the Gobi, and it seems to be in the desert. The Sanwei Mountain and Jingtai Yellow River Stone Forest in Dunhuang are the most suitable places for filming.

The speaker had no intention, but the listener was interested. Wang Xiaohu immediately got to know about it, and communicated with the soldier for a long time, and finally decided that the shooting location should be Dunhuang Sanwei Mountain and Jingtai Yellow River Stone Forest.

Ever since, Zhao Gang led two groups of teams, a small number of them rushed to Dunhuang Sanwei Mountain to build a film set, and the main force took a large number of props, weapons, costumes, and war horses to Jingtai Yellow River Stone Forest.

As the first stop of the crew, Sanwei Mountain did not shoot many scenes, because a small part of the script is flexible and vague, such as Meng Yi's welcoming army and the Xiongnu army (it seems that there is no mention of the enemy before haha , Let’s be the Huns) battle, finally Meng Yi took the princess and the Qin army were separated, got lost on the way, climbed mountains and waded, and finally arrived in Xianyang.

Wang Xiaohu's original intention was to finish filming in one shot near Xi'an. After the soldier said this, he was immediately moved.After all, in the original "Mythology", Jackie Chan and Tang Jili moved to several countries for filming. Just in China, they were busy in Gansu, Shaanxi, Guilin and other places, basically including the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.

Wang Xiaohu believes that since "Mythology" is defined as the Chinese national character, it should reflect the great rivers and mountains of China, so he made such a "waste of money" decision after careful consideration.

"Everyone go to the tent to rest for a while, and prepare to start the machine in the afternoon!" Wang Xiaohu clapped his hands, and said to the crew members with bitter faces, "It's time to finish filming early and call it a day."

"Brother Hu, will this big sun burn us?" Zhang Yuan said shyly.

"You kid and I have become more and more pimps recently, I will clean you up after the filming is over!" Wang Xiaohu said with a stare, and Zhang Yuan shrank his neck in fright to call the crew to unload the props.

In fact, there are very few props used in this scene, mainly to show that Meng Yi and the princess share joys and sorrows along the way, and the two gradually develop feelings for each other, so the props are only five or six sets of clothes, and there are only two of them as the main actors. Plus a few remnants of the Huns.

Although there were few scenes, it was hard enough for everyone to shoot. It took five days of tossing around for a few shots before the job was over. On the military vehicle rushing to Jingtai Yellow River Stone Forest, Wang Xiaohu gave Zhao Yazhi various massages to relieve muscle pain It doesn't matter that he is in good physical condition, Zhao Yazhi is the hardest in the whole crew.

Because many scenes are filmed in the desert and Gobi, and the prop shoes Zhao Yazhi wears are not very heat-insulated. Standing on the desert for a long time, the ground heat and the thin shoes will cause a few blisters, which makes Zhao Yazhi frown frequently, but she She never told her husband, and only scolded herself when Wang Xiaohu saw it after filming.

"Ah Hu, take a rest, I feel much better." Zhao Yazhi turned pale and said softly to her husband who was still applying the potion for her.

"No, I have suffered you these few days. Hey, I was too careless. If I knew you had an injury, I would have slowed down the shooting. Your body is the most important thing." Wang Xiaohu felt extremely guilty. .

"Hehe." Zhao Yazhi smiled lightly, pulled Wang Xiaohu's hand over her face and said, "Everyone is working hard, I can't do special ones, if I don't support you, how can you ask the rest of the crew?"

"Azhi, thank you." Wang Xiaohu's heart was warm, he lowered his head and kissed his wife's jade hand, his eyes were red.

"We are husband and wife. It always feels weird to say these things." Zhao Yazhi shyly withdrew her hand, and Wang Xiaohu hugged her delicate body, causing Zhao Yazhi to whisper: "Hey, Ah Hu, don't be like this, Qing Xia and Gillian are outside."

"It's nothing, I just want to hug you, nothing else." Wang Xiaohu said softly.

Jingtai Yellow River Stone Forest is located in the southeast of Jingtai County, BY City, adjacent to Longwan Village, Zhongquan Township.Surrounded by mountains, the environment is quiet, the air is fresh, and the scenery is beautiful. The ancient stone forest group is the most distinctive and large-scale.

In a long and narrow valley in the middle of the Stone Forest of the Yellow River, hundreds of Qin Dynasty warriors wearing battle armor and holding various weapons are fighting in a square formation.

At a distance of more than ten meters in front of the team, twenty war horses are slowly advancing. The leader is Wang Xiaohu, followed by Jackie Chan, Yuan Biao, Yuan De and others. They are all wearing Qin dynasty heavy armor and riding black The horse walked slowly from the valley.

This valley is about 350 meters long. On both sides of the road in the valley, photography tracks are set up every 50 meters. Above the valley, there is a photography elevator every 100 meters. On the platform of the elevator sit Concorde, Shanghai Film, Photographer of Changying and Beiying.

However, the key cameras are still controlled by the staff of Xiehe Company, led by Sammo Hung, Yuan Heping, Li Hanwei, and Wu Di. Sammo Hung and Yuan Heping are responsible for the two most sophisticated large cameras in the world. The former assistant Wu Di gained a lot of experience with the filming of "Mythology", and was assigned by Wang Xiaohu to be in charge of the track car on the right.

At this time, Zhang Yimou was pushing the trolley hard. After following the crew for two months, his skin, which was not very fair, became darker, but his body became much stronger. This has a lot to do with the crew eating meat. relation.

Yuan Heping, who was standing at the highest point, suddenly shouted with a loudspeaker: "Attention the photography teams on the left and right sides, immediately enter the acceleration state, and the rail car will run hard for me. Did you hear that!"

"I heard it!" Zhang Yimou and five assistants pushing the trolley answered loudly.

"Okay, the first game of "Mythology", welcome the princess and get ready to start!" After the game recorder finished playing the cards, Yuan Heping gave an order, and saw Wang Xiaohu and others clamp the horse's belly with their legs, and the horse immediately accelerated to run, Jackie Chan and others He and the soldiers of the People's Liberation Army behind him also accelerated forward. For a while, the entire canyon was like galloping horses, and the dust was blowing up in the sky, which was really spectacular.

Standing on the track car, Li Hanwei said to Zhang Yimou and others, "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up! I want to take pictures of Brother Hu's handsome appearance."

Hearing the words, Zhang Yimou exerted all his breastfeeding strength, pushed the track car forward with all his limbs, and at the same time let out a low drink: "Ahh~"

After a few moments, there was a thud, and Li Hanwei let out a scream: "Ouch!"
The track car is fast, but the speed is too fast. It ran out of track within a few tens of meters. It’s no wonder the car didn’t go off the rails. I saw Li Hanwei curled up, hugging the camera tightly in his arms and lying on the ground. .

Zhang Yimou was stunned when he saw this, and hurried up to pull Li Hanwei: "Mr. Li, are you okay?"

"Start!" Li Hanwei gritted his teeth, and carefully took out the camera to watch: "Damn it, it's ruined! It's all ruined, and it's all your fault!"

Isn’t it? Because the speed of the rail car is too fast, no matter how fast Li Hanwei reacted at the moment of derailment, the camera was in close contact with the ground. It was just this light touch, and the camera was directly reimbursed. No wonder Li Hanwei would get angry.

"I told you to push it quickly, but you should also look ahead. Don't you know that the track is gone? It's all right now, the lens is destroyed, and it's worth hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars. I can't afford to sell you !"

Zhang Yimou blushed and lowered his head, he was dumbfounded on the spot, hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars, even if he borrowed all his relatives, he might not be able to pay for it.

"What's going on?" The crew gathered around at once. After learning what happened, Yuan Heping, the deputy director, came to the scene and became furious. He pointed to Zhang Yimou's nose and said, "What are you doing, Mouzi? What do you think now?" manage!"

"I, I." Zhang Yimou raised his pale face and stammered for a long time, not knowing how to return.

At this time, other people also began to point and point. If Daluzai doesn't understand this or that, he will cause destruction except by working hard.

This is a hornet's nest. You must know that there are not only Hong Kong staff in the film crew, but also three film companies and hundreds of soldiers from the People's Liberation Army. These gossips were exported, and the people on both sides immediately wiped out a strong smell of gunpowder.

Crew members from more than a dozen continents immediately surrounded Yuan Heping and others to ask for an explanation.

"Hey, you are amazing from Hong Kong, what's so awesome about it!"

"Yes, why do you look down on us, we have a lot of work!"
