Soldiers who can establish a certain personal relationship with Liu Qingshan will of course be more valued by relevant parties. Besides, behind Liu Qingshan stands Mr. Fu, who has enjoyed high prestige in the military for decades.
Therefore, it is not known who was actually operating it. Feng Kuohai was actually transferred to a group army in Kyoto by a certain unit a few months later.
This time he was directly sent to assist in the filming of the film, serving as the actual liaison between the crew and the military.
Liu Qingshan didn't get much useful information from him. This was because he himself received the transfer order in a daze, and his direct superiors didn't reveal to him which party was paying attention to him.
However, it is speculated that Feng Kuohai has fallen into the eyes of his father or his subordinates, and it is probably because this person provided a lot of help to Liu Qingshan in the beginning.
Liu Qingshan did not continue to dwell on this matter. He thought that he would just wait until he had the opportunity to meet Mr. Fu and ask about it.
What he is most concerned about right now is that his old friends meet here again, and there will obviously be no obstacles to future cooperation between the two parties.
There were actually three people leading the team, the battalion commander Wang Zhiqiang and one company commander and one deputy.
It is said that this time to cooperate with the local film shooting, the military method does not require the dispatch of battalion-level cadres. It is enough for the local department in charge of the armed forces to cooperate with the leading officer to do this.
But since battalion-level cadres like Feng Kuohai sent by the headquarters also came to the filming location, of course they had to send another officer of equal rank to receive them equally.
But these are not the parts that Liu Qingshan should worry about, so after getting familiar with each other, he gave an in-depth explanation to the people present.
"The filming of our film will be very difficult. Most of the actors will not be able to take a shower for at least a few months. Even washing their faces and brushing their teeth may be a waste. I would like to ask Battalion Commander Wang and the two company commanders to inform comrades in advance about this." Make it clear! Of course, our crew will try our best to improve everyone’s treatment, at least we won’t be sloppy in terms of food and accommodation!”
Wang Zhiqiang said with a smile: "As for the hard work during the filming process, our leaders have actually made it very clear a long time ago. Such a good work that can truly reflect the cruelty of war and promote the selfless dedication of soldiers is of great concern to those of us who protect the people." The former soldiers are actually very willing to actively cooperate, no matter how hard and tiring they are, they are willing to do so!"
The company commander beside him, Sun Jiang, also quickly agreed: "I can't explain the truth of our battalion commander, but Mr. Liu can rest assured that the grassroots officers and soldiers can endure hardships and are willing to endure hardships! And that building is full of props We are managing the clothing tent, and we all saw with our own eyes what clothes were shipped yesterday, and no one showed the slightest resistance!"
Feng Kuohai turned his head and explained: "I don't know where the old military uniforms came from. Not only are they very dirty, but they also have a strange smell. Let alone wearing them, it's hard to breathe even close to them!"
Liu Qingshan's eyes immediately widened and he looked at Liao Xin, who was at the same table: "Do you still need to save this little money? Didn't I tell you a long time ago that we are not short of money for this investment project?"
Liao Xin smiled bitterly and spread her hands: "Although I am a producer in name only, I can't stand the orders of the big boss of China Film Group who came to supervise and review, right? These props were obtained by Master Han. He also said All war movies allocate costumes in this way, and there is a special outsourced company responsible for allocating materials in this area, and our crew cannot violate the rules!"
The assistant director of the crew also spoke up: "Mr. Liu, this is indeed the case. We are definitely not trying to save money. In fact, the price of renting that pile of junk is not low!"
Liu Qingshan did not continue talking to these people, but called Han Shanping.
The third master laughed when he heard Liu Qingshan's complaint: "There are no hidden rules here as you think, but this kind of costumes and props that have a sense of age and have certain political significance also need to be submitted for approval. It’s definitely not someone who has a monopoly on this capitalless business, it’s not as shady as you think!”
"But the things that were sent in this batch are really unbearable to look at!"
"Just make do with it. Others still gave me away a lot for my sake. Otherwise, no matter how damaged the clothes are after the photo shoot, they still have to be packaged and sent back, and there is still a huge charge." Philippine’s damage fee! There is no way, they have the approval certificate, if we customize it ourselves, I’m afraid it will take several months just to go through the procedures!”
"So, any war movie needs to be re-done by someone?"
"It can't be said like this. There are no explicit regulations, but when it comes to war films with historical themes, if anyone deliberately finds fault with the costumes and props, just tell us There are no adverse effects, and it can be considered as indirectly helping us to avoid many unnecessary disasters. Although there are some bad habits in the industry, even we at China Film are helpless, so you just have to swallow this breath! Besides, making war movies is just a matter of time. It has to be so dirty, if you still don’t want to give in, can I personally wear it on the spot tomorrow to give the actors a look?”
At this point, Liu Qingshan could only bear it silently: "Okay, I will talk to my comrades again."
Han Shanping smiled and said: "I have already explained it to the two battalion commanders. I will explain it to the soldiers again tomorrow. Don't worry about this matter. Just think about how to take a good picture! By the way, you won't come back tonight. Guest house? There is no hotel here, and the conditions are a bit more difficult, but you chose the filming location, so I should be the one to complain!"
"Haha, I know the accommodation conditions in the future. It has nothing to do with you finding it difficult. I didn't know in advance that you would still have to come!"
After chatting some more, Liu Qingshan finally withdrew his attention: "Captain Wang, you just heard that it's hard for people who make war movies because of these conditions!"
Wang Zhiqiang looked like he didn't care at all and pointed at the two battalion commanders: "You don't have to worry about those brats under their command. The two leaders have to change into those clothes to participate in the filming of the group performance scene! Besides, , it’s a war movie, and I’ll be covered in sweat and mud at the end of the day. The old and new ones are actually the same, so the weird smell won’t be that strong once I wear it!”
Although the attitude of others was very cooperative, Liu Qingshan still couldn't bear the uneasiness in his heart: "Anyway, I have to work hard for you. Don't worry, you will be given favorable treatment as you deserve. If the box office is satisfactory in the future, we will also give you a big red envelope!"
The deputy company commander who has been silent is called Li Guoping, a rugged Northeastern man: "Actually, my soldiers are very satisfied if they can have close contact with you. Including me, after receiving this mission After that, I was quite excited. You must know that you, Mr. Liu, are a role model among the young people of our generation. You are a Chinese who dares to step on international superstars and can kill a fighting master with one punch. But for us Chinese He has a long face!"
Jin Xishan snickered with his mouth half-covered: "That's rude, okay? You have to have a lot of kung fu to rely on, otherwise would you dare to look at him again?"
Wang Zhiqiang smiled and shook his head: "Competition between countries must be based on strength. Only when you have super high comprehensive national strength will others respect you. It's the same as a human being. If you rob him, he will retreat. If you are weak, he will dare to bully you in every possible way. The higher Mr. Liu's force value, the quieter others will slander him. This is reality and there is nothing to be ashamed of!"
Liu Qingshan nodded: "Especially when you are overseas, strength and unity are very important. The foreigners' objective prejudice against our country is unimaginably harsh and profound. If you are too polite to them, it will only be a slap in the face!" "
His words actually caused the four soldiers to applaud in unison, and the relief and deep understanding on their faces were clear at a glance.
Jin Xishan smiled helplessly: "This is my first time dealing with Chinese soldiers like you. The man's bloody nature is the deepest impression on me!"
Li Guoping immediately followed: "Miss Jin, after you see our soldiers filming war scenes, this feeling will be even more profound! Foreigners always think that our country has not fought in decades, and most of the soldiers today He is the only son in the family again, and he no longer has the combat effectiveness he had before! In fact, they don’t understand that our Chinese military has always been the melting pot of society and can be washed away All male weaknesses, including timidity, will definitely surprise the whole world no matter when they are brought to a real battlefield!"
This time it was Liu Qingshan's turn to applaud: "I love hearing this, and personally I have always done this. The Chinese national spirit has been suppressed for hundreds of years due to various reasons, and it is time for us to re- It’s time to stand on top of the world!”
Since he debuted, he has never said such heroic words in public, mainly because his own force value is too high, and saying such words will give people an intuitive feeling of overwhelming power.
But today is different. The few soldiers present have their own unique sense of iron and steel. They are galloping leopards, flying eagles, and the vast sea, which makes people awe-inspiring.
Jin Xishan didn't have many similar feelings, but he was interested in the straight backs that the soldiers kept almost all the time: "Is the management in your army so strict? Almost everyone has a unique temperament that makes people feel uncomfortable. Dare to offend!"
When she said these words, she had already arrived in the area where ordinary soldiers were. The soldiers were surrounding bonfires. Although they were still holding bones in their hands, their waists were straight.
Regarding her arrival, the soldiers, who looked like they had just reached adulthood, all had fiery eyes, but few of them dared to look at Jin Xishan, smiling shyly.
Only the person closest to him answered softly: "We are all used to it. Everything must be done in a formal manner. It is the basic quality that every soldier should have. Lazy appearance is only allowed in the bed where you sleep!"
Jin Xishan's face was still full of surprise: "When I came to the mainland and watched TV, I often saw pictures of your soldiers. Are those pictures of neatly lined up waiting lines at train stations and subways real?"
Another soldier replied: "It's just a matter of habit, and there is not much intentionality! Sister Xishan is a foreigner and doesn't understand our military system. As long as you walk out of the camp gate, all the people wearing military uniforms will represent It’s not just one person, but the quality of the entire army. This is very important, and we are very willing to implement it, because passers-by see us with respect in their eyes, and we will feel very proud of that look!”
