"Director, all the drama of the Yellow Turban Uprising has been filmed. Next comes the war scenes!" After half a month of filming, Xiang Liu, the executive director of this TV series and the actual person in charge of the entire crew, said Xu reported.
Well, the chief director Liu Xu actually only appears on the set about 1/3 of the time. These are all the responsibility of the executive director. After all, our Majesty has a lot to do and has too many things to do. It is impossible to cover everything. time devoted to the TV series.
"Okay, then let's start filming the war scenes of the Yellow Turban Uprising!" Liu Xu nodded. In Liu Xu's plan, the entire Three Kingdoms TV series will not be filmed in one go, but will be divided into nine different stages. , namely the Yellow Turban Uprising, Dong Zhuo's Rebellion, the Struggle for Hegemony, the Battle of Guandu, the Battle of Chibi, the Battle of Yizhou, the Battle of Yiling, the Southern Barbarian Expedition, the Prime Minister's Northern Expedition, and the Return of the Three Kingdoms to Jin.
What is currently being filmed is part 1 of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. The filming content is divided into two parts: literary drama and war scenes. The literary drama is shot first, and then the more difficult large-scale war scenes are shot.
Well, the suggestion to shoot in two parts was not Liu Xu's idea, but the TV series' production team suggested it to Liu Xu. Although Liu Xu was confused, shouldn't this war scene be the easiest to shoot?
Especially after Liu Xu personally participated in the filming process of part of the literary drama, he lamented the difficulties of literary drama even more. War scenes were easier to shoot.
"Director, we plan to recruit about 1,000 extras to play the soldiers on both sides, so that they will appear as real as possible. We are also planning to build a large number of war weapons. In this way, the cost of shooting the entire war scene will be about It’s about 1 million reading coins, and it will take half a year to prepare..."
"Wait a minute, what are you talking about? You need 1 million reading coins and a half-year preparation period?" Liu Xu's eyes widened when he heard this, and the executive director was also startled by Liu Xu's rhetorical question, and quickly said, "Director, These are all necessary. If we save them, the whole war scene will probably look fake, so we..."
"Wait a minute!" Liu Xu pulled the executive director and flew directly to the open space outside the city, and then asked, "In the script, how many troops are there in the Yellow Turbans?"
"There are more than 400,000 people, but with about 1,000 extras, they can basically fill up the entire screen..." Before the executive director finished speaking, Liu Xu waved his big hand, and countless heads were tied with yellow scarves. , soldiers holding hoes, manure forks and other agricultural tools in their hands appeared in front of the executive director.
These soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were all over the mountains and fields, almost endless at first glance, like a yellow ocean. The executive director, who was used to seeing all kinds of big scenes, was speechless at this time.
"How many officers and soldiers are there?" Liu Xu asked again.
"Yes, the official army is the army of the imperial court, and there are also troops recruited by local powerful people in various regions. The total number of people is about 100,000!" said the executive director.
"This is a bit messy!" Liu Xu touched his nose and said, "The clothes of the official army should be different from the clothes of the army recruited by the powerful landlords. The clothes of each team should be different."
"Yes! Yes!" The executive director nodded repeatedly, "Especially the troops recruited by the three powerful landlords, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Liu Bei, should all have different costumes, and these costumes should have their own characteristics, and These characteristics will also carry over to the military apparel they will gradually develop and expand."
"In addition, as for various war equipment, because the prop team has never filmed war scenes and does not have any historical data and illustrations to draw from, we need you to give some personal guidance to determine the quality of various costumes..."
"No need to go to such trouble!" Still waiting for the executive director to finish speaking, Liu Xu clapped his hands. Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Liu Bei, Sun Jian, Cao Cao, Dong Zhuo and others all reflected on the executive director one by one. Next to him, Liu Xu smiled slightly and said, "Come on, reflect all your troops from the Yellow Turban Rebellion period, and then listen to the executive director's command throughout the whole process, and have another fight with the Yellow Turban Army on the opposite side!"
In an instant, opposite the Yellow Turban Army, a hundred thousand troops appeared out of thin air. Unlike the Yellow Turban Army, whose clothing and weapons were as confusing as possible, these 100,000 soldiers were almost all professional soldiers armed to the teeth, although the number was only 1% of the opponent's. /4 or so, but the overwhelming evil aura displayed was able to keep the opponent at bay, and even faintly suppress the opponent.
The executive director who became the center of all this could only keep wiping the beads of sweat on his forehead. Apart from anything else, just standing in the middle of these two armies, the pressure was unimaginably terrifying and huge.
Especially when Liu Xu next to me said, "You can shoot any war scenes you want. As long as you give the order, these 500,000 troops will start a real war according to your orders and designs." A bloody war involving swords and guns!"

"TV series, this guy Liu Xu is really panicking. He actually wants to put me on the fire!" Seeing the brand new copy delivered to him, Jiujiu Wufu had the word "headache" written all over his face, and then he He gritted his teeth and refused, "I'm very sorry, your Majesty, we cannot accept your request. Playing TV series on TV is a request that the Writers Association absolutely cannot accept!"
"What?" As an envoy of Taiping, Lina obviously did not expect that Jiujiu Wufu would actually refuse the request of the Great God of Taiping.
Originally, Lina thought that this was just a simple task, handing over the TV series produced by Taiping God for her children to the Great Writers Association, and the Great Writers Association would immediately start arranging for the TV series to be broadcast nationwide. After all, who can refuse the request of a great god.
But Jiujiu Wufu refused, and he was so decisive and showed no mercy at all.
"This is not what I meant, this is the will of God Taiping!" Lina said with an unkind expression.
"Yes, of course I know that there is the will of the Taiping God behind this, but even so, it won't work, because there is the will of all the contracted authors behind it!"
Jiujiu Wufu looked at Lina seriously and said, "Your Majesty, you should know that the Writers Association has always been extremely strict in controlling various TV programs, especially in the TV series. No more than 3 TV series can pass the review every year. , and these TV series all have a characteristic, that is, they have nothing to do with anything existing. Their scripts are all original by TV workers, and the content they tell is almost all about the heroic struggle between our world and the mirror in the past 300 years. The TV series does not involve any fictional content."
"Do you know why?"
