Next, the troops who control the gregarious performance will also follow, because there are two highlight scenes there, namely the scene of throwing money and shooting before "killing Shiro and robbing the watchtower".
This section is also another manifestation of the famous scene of "let the bullets fly for a while" and is one of the most important plot descriptions in the entire film.
The second highlight was the shootout scene in the outskirts of Echeng, where the counterfeit Zhang Mazi was hunted down, and the scene where the master who fled in a carriage was killed by a bomb.
The filming of the entire film has just come to an end, so the filming from today onwards can be regarded as the climax. Even the ordinary extras can see the general structure of the story.
People have this kind of mentality when doing things. With the job prospects clearly visible, the enthusiasm and attitude towards work will increase accordingly.
As a result, the filming process of the big scene scenes in the past few days went surprisingly smoothly. The filming was originally expected to take about a week, but it ended up taking only 5 days.
Taishan and Kaiping are adjacent, so the distance between the two places is only one step away. Therefore, even if a large army moves out as a whole, it only takes about forty minutes to arrive.
Seeing the outside of the small square city, many people sighed: The Goose City in the movie turns out to be real.
Even Liu Qingshan had similar emotions after checking the information. It can be seen that the environment here is excellent and it matches the movie scene in his mind.
In fact, this small town-style building was a private residence built by local overseas Chinese with the surname Mei and their family members in the early years, so it is also called the "Mei Family Courtyard" in the local area.
The compound covers an area of 80 acres. There are 108 two- to three-story buildings with arcades, arranged in a rectangular shape, row upon row, and uniformly arranged. In the middle, there is 40 acres of open market space for vendors to sell goods, just like a small square city, so it has It is known as "Mei Family Courtyard".
Now it is almost unimaginable how the Mei family could be so rich and able to build such a small town.
However, no one cares about these anymore. Even in local chronicles, there are very few introductions to the Mei clan. They are only generally referred to as an example of the thoughts and living standards of the people in the hometown of overseas Chinese at that time. The Mei Family Courtyard is currently preserved nationwide. It is the most complete and typical representative of overseas Chinese architecture of a certain scale.
This place is also listed as a provincial cultural relic protection priority, because waiting in front of the city gate at this moment, in addition to the local government and nearby villagers, there are also staff from the provincial cultural department of Guangdong Province.
The Mei Family Courtyard has high historical value and appreciation value, and has great development potential. These people came here for this reason.
And just like the previous Zili Village, the local government welcomed this photography team. Not only did they send people to renovate the buildings that needed to be used, they also temporarily sent a team of staff at all levels to live in the city to coordinate The crew cleared the filming location promptly.
When we entered the city, we were faced with the market where vendors were selling their goods, but now almost no one was willing to guard their stalls, because everyone was rushing towards the crew.
Compared with Zili Village, the transportation and communication conditions here are obviously much better. Not only are there buses running directly to here, but the stores on both sides also have plaques with various mobile phones, clothing, hardware, and local products and groceries. It is obvious that it has all the facilities that a small town should have.
Most of the people here are dressed in modern clothes and have a sense of fashion. Young people are not uncommon, which shows that not the majority of people here go out to work.
They cheered for not seeing the big star in this crew, and Liu Qingshan was treated as warmly as Uncle Ge and Fa Ge. It was obvious that people here knew a lot about him.
There were even young girls shouting "Alien" in the crowd. Now this group of words has become Liu Qingshan's English name, but I only his fans can call him this.
Even ordinary foreigners and most Chinese people often call him Mr. Liu or Mr. Liu Qingshan. It seems that such a clear way of calling him has become a folk convention.
Even though this is just a small town, people on the street can also recognize many actors in the crew. For example, Liu Jialing, Zhou Yun, Chen Kun, Shao Bing, Liao Fang, Du Yiheng, Jiang Wu, etc., some of them can call out their names. Come.
Therefore, the relatively closed filming environment in the past two months has made almost everyone feel excited to return to the human world, including actors. After all, being recognized by more people is recognition of identity.
The crew's residence is different from before. There is no collective living environment, but they are scattered among the two-story old buildings.
It's just that the second floor is not open to the public. There were people living on the first floor before. Now everyone's belongings have been moved to the second floor for storage, and there is no place to put their feet.
The local government’s explanation for this is: “After learning that Mr. Liu was coming to film a movie, the Mei family compound began to raise funds to build a hotel. Unfortunately, a heavy rain three months ago delayed the construction period, so this was the only way to deal with it. ! Fortunately, most people can live in double rooms or even single rooms. I heard that they can only stay here for more than ten days. Please help Liu Qingshan explain this special reason! "
Liu Qingshan laughed loudly: "Actors have a lot of experience living in tents in the wild. The conditions you arranged are no worse than hotels or hotels. We don't dare to think that the conditions are not good, and we are very grateful for your careful arrangements!"
The sedan chair was carried by many people. This standard is applicable everywhere, and it is the same here. Everyone showed a happy expression.
Furthermore, the specific accommodation is not bad. Many people can enjoy the treatment of single rooms. Although the facilities are relatively simple and you still need to go to public places to use the toilet, it is much cleaner and sanitary than Zili Village.
Since those horses were also brought here and temporarily arranged in a large yard where the troops were located, actors who needed to strengthen their riding training had to go there to lead the horses.
Liu Qingshan was also in this group. He also developed the habit of riding a horse for a lap before going to bed, so after the dinner organized by the locals that night, he accompanied Liu Jialing, Zhou Yun, Chen Kun, Shao Bing, and Jiang Wu. A few of them came to the residential area where the troops were located, carrying several boxes of wine and drinks along the way.
Here, he met the deputy battalion commander Feng Kuohai whom he had contacted on the phone before.
Soldiers will not attend dinners organized by civilian organizations, but there are people from the local garrison who came to express their condolences. Feng Kuohai is one of them, and he is also the one with the highest military rank.
It was obvious that this person had a close friendship with the company commander Huo Liansheng. After the others exchanged greetings, they rode out and Liu Qingshan stayed to talk to the two of them.
Although he didn't think that Battalion Commander Feng might not be able to explain the reasons for helping him, after all, this person had a positive attitude during his busy schedule, so the gratitude he deserved couldn't be vague.
Sure enough, Feng Kuohai still said what he said before: "Mr. Liu, just thank me and forgive me. It's just an entrustment. Besides, it didn't actually help you anything!"
Liu Qingshan smiled and shook his head: "Why didn't you help? If you and Captain Huo hadn't reminded me that Zhang Ping had found something about someone above, I wouldn't have known about it in time, and the person might have been sent directly to the countryside. Then But it will cause conflicts between the township and the county, and my crime will not be serious!"
Feng Kuohai kept shaking his head, "Sending to the countryside has always been our suggestion. It's because you, Mr. Liu, didn't take it. It's not our fault!"
Liu Qingshan shook his head and said, "It's the same as sending it to the countryside. If I don't know that Zhang Ping has a relationship, there will be two situations. Fortunately, with your information feedback, I can avoid the possibility of quarrels between the township and the higher authorities. I The desired effect is far less significant than having their people taken away directly! Let’s end this matter now, there is no need for us to fight over it afterwards!”
Battalion Commander Feng stopped mentioning it and asked, "How is the man who was sent to the hospital doing now?"
"The other party moved out an industry leader, and I happened to have some cooperation with him. He personally came from Kyoto for this matter. I have to give him face, but without corresponding compensation, I still won't treat that person! "
"Compensation is due. We have learned about Mr. Liu's work style. His personal experience is quite special. It is understandable to be overly cautious towards people of unknown origins."
"Should there be some blood or not? Zhang Ping is a bit unethical in what he does. I respect Director Zhang very much and I have the responsibility to help him get out of his bad temper!"
"I read today's newspaper and learned a lot about it. That Zhang Ping is indeed a bit arrogant and domineering. It turns out that Director Zhang's old father had already seen his ambition before he died."
"The key is that Director Zhang has been kept in the dark. He thought this person was helping him share his worries. The process of my persuading him was a bit tortuous. If he hadn't just discovered that someone was following him, he might not have woken up so quickly!"
"Is there such twists and turns? Director Zhang is also a bit too stupid."
"Who says it's not, but I can't blame him. The two have been friends for many years, and that person did help him a lot in the first few years. It's just that Director Zhang's market appeal is too great. After several films have made money, , Zhang Ping began to interfere in all aspects and no longer concealed his ambitions!"
"I've seen the scene where Mr. Liu quoted Marx's Capital. The greed of capital is really shameless!" Captain Huo interrupted.
Liu Qingshan deeply agreed: "Director Zhang should feel lucky that his trusted friend was a little too blatant. Otherwise, if he had hidden it deeper, it would have been irreversible by the time he finally discovered it!"
Feng Kuohai nodded, "That's because he couldn't hide it anymore. In the face of the huge temptation of interests, he got a little carried away. I don't understand this. I only read the analysis in those newspapers!"
"The reason for this is mainly because of the character of that person. It will be a matter of time before he is exposed. It is just a matter of when Director Zhang can come over."
Liu Qingshan said this, and then asked another thing: "Is it possible for the person who entrusted Battalion Commander Feng to find out who Zhang Ping is looking for? I always feel that this matter is not simple, and there will definitely be more What’s the follow-up?”
