Chapter 221 Singing the Motherland

If Zhang Cheng went to the Dabie Mountains to shoot a film this time, the main reason was that the cost in other places was too high. Maybe no one in the industry would believe it.But here's the thing, the average labor cost here is $100, and elsewhere it's $500.It stands to reason that Zhang Cheng is also short of this amount of money, but in fact the money is sent directly to the laborers in the Dabie Mountains, and it is outsourced elsewhere.

The management doesn’t need to care about these things, but Zhang Cheng is different. In his previous life, he worked from a small person to his death. The management paid 500 yuan, and when it was in the hands of the laborers, the maximum was 80 yuan. In remote areas, many outsourced foremen paid 60 yuan.

What are they doing?The two plays are all military materials, some are ordinary and some are heavy.Even props.For example, a heavy machine gun, this prop also weighs more than 30 kilograms.It doesn't matter if you take it regularly.

However, the filming needs to change the scene, and some places are not open to traffic, and the car can't drive through, so people need to carry it.Actors nowadays are not as easy to talk to as they used to be. Apart from filming, they ignore everything else and can only hire laborers.It was a mountain road of more than ten kilometers. Zhang Cheng felt that 500 was too little, and others felt that 100 took advantage of Zhang Cheng.

Like digging a hole.The trenches that everyone saw were basically dug, and the actors and extras were all pretending, and they fiddled with a shovel a few times, and it was a scene of repairing the trenches.Who dug this trench?Moreover, for a large-scale war-themed TV series like Zhang Cheng, it is dug and filled, and after a scene is dug, the original raw soil can be dug to mature.

Many people think that it is still followed by two troops, why not let the troops do it?Pull it down, people only listen to the command of their superiors, especially for such large-scale activities, they are usually locked in the barracks.When acting, even if you listen to the director's lecture, the scenes are arranged in rows and columns, so it is not as simple as you think.

The engineers and soldiers are all dispatched, but they are only responsible for the blasting scene.The scene of the battle between the two sides can be regarded as a military exercise.So they all need the help of migrant workers.Of course, the general staff doesn't know these things. If the general staff knows, he will communicate with the commander of the army.

What Zhang Cheng does now is tell the military the number of people every time, then put on makeup, and then choose some scenes in which people pretend to be dead or are killed during the battle.In this regard, the army is better than group performances. If you are obedient, if someone dies at 70 meters, he will never exceed 71 meters. When he reaches the place, he will fall straight as if he was really dead.

As soon as the crew entered the mountain, they were divided into two parts, one part was for "Bright Sword" and the other part was for "Soldier Assault".

The scene of soldiers assaulting Xu Sanduo’s old home can also be filmed here. Later, a place was built in the county to repair the original county armed forces department as a whole, and it became a scene. Anyway, I don’t plan to destroy it. This scene is left to the county armed forces department. .

As for Xu Sanduo's training place, he can do it anywhere. For the place inside the barracks, he chose Xuchang University not far from here as a temporary shooting location, because the playground looks pretty good.

After finishing the scenes on Zhang Cheng's side, he took out the drawing paper and told the assistant director to shoot according to this.Then he brought a teacher into the mountain.

Zhang Cheng's shooting method is different from that of many directors. He distinguishes according to the scene, and then divides it into shots, characters and.For example, there were two battles with Bantian United in one place, and the two battles must have been filmed together.Therefore, many actors and drama props who have not cooperated with Zhang Cheng will be repaired and trembling.

Because the script and scenes have been subdivided to a certain extent by Zhang Cheng.Therefore, whenever there is a break, there will be a bunch of people around the assistant director or the drama manager, and the scene notes to listen to the play.

Bright Sword is only level 30, from the time when Li Yunlong was sacked as the head of the regiment, he told the story until he became a general after the founding of the People's Republic of China.This TV did not tell the whole story of the original story. Due to various factors, the latter could not be presented to the audience. This is also a regret left all the time, but Zhang Cheng does not intend to let the regret continue.

When Zhang Cheng was filming Liangjian, he was ready for the sequel, and there was such a drama that could continue "The Burning Years".The protagonists of the two films are not the same person, but that is a matter of the previous life. Who stipulates that a biography of a person must be filmed?Therefore, Li Yunlong's marriage was modified by Zhang Cheng in the middle and late stages of Liangjian.

After "The Burning Years", although Oda Tianyu here still had a secret relationship with Li Yunlong in the 22 episodes, but it didn't work out in the end.

In the 25th episode, the Central China region was liberated. Li Yunlong met Chu Qin on the way to the city, and it was completely connected to the first episode of "The Burning Years". After that, this story began to intersect with the Burning Years. At the time of the episode, it was completely transitioned, and the burning years became the follow-up plot of Bright Sword.

A bright sword was filmed by Zhang Cheng for a full-length TV series with 60 episodes.

However, Zhang Cheng felt that this could give the audience a better explanation. You must know that in the previous life, because of Liangjian's search, there were 3200 million entries in a full year.Not only that, but even the villain Japanese highly admire Liangjian, and it has been broadcast more than 5 times in 3000 years.

Just to connect, in order to adjust Li Yunlong's character to Shi Guangrong's character, Zhang Cheng also spent a lot of effort.This is a little more than the two plays.

An episode of TV series is 43 minutes, and the total length has reached nearly two days.But in fact, the shooting time took more than 2 months, mainly because there was a scene change with the soldiers in the later stage, and the progress of both sides was not fast every day.It wasn't until 67 days after the shooting of the soldiers' assault that Zhang Cheng's speed picked up.

Compared with Bright Sword, Soldiers Assault is a slow-heating TV series. This drama must wait until the fifth episode to see some taste. When the tenth episode starts, the frontcourt and midfield of Soldiers Assault will be connected in series. It was really good at first, and then I felt that this is an inspirational drama.

It is precisely because of this factor that Zhang Cheng did not wait. The soldiers rushed to submit for review as soon as the shooting was over, and then did a lot of publicity work. This is the first time Zhang Cheng took the initiative to promote a TV series, and all the actors began to stop At the same time, a large banner "Only after watching the soldiers assault you will know what a real man is" posters are also overwhelming.

For a while, soldier assault has become a new word.And Chen Jiujiu's poster also surprised everyone. A thin-looking male lead is not as good-looking as Zhang Cheng. Why is this drama so good?

Some people speculate that this is a TV series filming Zhang Cheng's inner world, which deeply exposes Zhang Cheng's humanity and quality. Some people also say that this drama must be Zhang Cheng's new attempt to make a buffoon out of his own mind.

Of course, Zhang Cheng is well-known in the circle as a master of newcomers.Moreover, as long as his plays can be produced, they are basically high-quality goods, which is unanimously recognized by everyone.But for the first time, Zhang Cheng also said in the promotional film: This drama is a breakthrough in Chinese TV dramas, and it is a drama that real men must watch.This is a bit of a cow.In the past, Zhang Cheng used one song as the main feature of the promotional video. The songs are generally very relevant, and when they are paired with a nice MV, everyone will join in the show.Especially Journey to the West, popular all over the world.

The songs in Soldiers Assault are not pop music, but folk singing, one is "Speak from the Heart" and the other is "Little Poplar".The singer was not Zhang Cheng himself, but a young singer named Bai Wei, a second-tier singer from the Zongzheng Song and Dance Troupe. He was in his thirties, and he was neither popular nor white, and had little reputation.

But these two songs were suddenly played all over the world, because suddenly many doll players were walking.

All the troops were singing and walking on the street. The neat team and the thick voice were not aesthetically pleasing, but the longing and helplessness in the singing made countless people cry.This is ruthless.

At the end of May, Soldiers Assault was released on CCTV's prime time every night.

The ratings were high at the beginning of the whole episode, but it dropped significantly at the beginning of the fourth episode.But after the sixth episode, it almost exploded.

Soldier Assault became popular in Zhang Cheng's last life after three years of precipitation and broadcast on the Internet.But it is impossible for Zhang Cheng to wait for three years, because time is what Zhang Cheng must fight for.A lot of publicity is not in vain, and the attraction is very high from the beginning.But there will still be embarrassing scenes in the first five episodes, but after all, Zhang Cheng has too many loyal fans, and a large part of the audience is willing to stay and watch the following episodes, so there is a rebound from the sixth episode.

At this time, the shooting of Bright Sword was also completed, and Zhang Cheng decided not to rush to release this film. After all, Soldier Assault is still in theaters. If Bright Sword is released, it is estimated that Soldier Assault will be shot to death directly.This is not blowing, who will fight when the sword comes out?Countless big dramas have fallen under the bright sword, not to mention the assault of soldiers with small feelings.

But it was still necessary to lay the groundwork, so Zhang Cheng began to organize a chorus "Singing the Motherland"; Zhang Cheng prepared three versions of this song, the first version is a chorus of ordinary people.The second version is sung by some celebrities, and the third version is sung by Lulu solo.

The three versions require a total of three scene MVs.The cantata version is a modernized country scene.

The version of the stars is an overhead shot on the tower.

Only Lulu's version is completely embedded in the plot of Liangjian, and it has a different voice-over.

Especially when Xiangxiu was added to the bridge on the city gate, he shouted at Li Yunlong: "Fire me for the new China!" movie, so Zhang Cheng added her to Bright Sword.

The lyrics are pressing on us to be hardworking, brave, we..., Li Yunlong also ordered the firing scene with tears in his eyes.
