Chapter 172: The Second Coming to Dali(1/2)

"It was built so soon?" Lin Xiaohua stood at the city gate, looking up at the ancient plaque of "Tianlong Babu Film and Television City" above, and said in surprise: "When I came last time, there was nothing here."

, "It's not completely completed, but it's almost done," Li Xiaohu smiled and said, "Go in and take a look. Everyone also goes in and stroll around, freely engage in activities, and experience the ancient and ancient martial arts world."

Today is the first day the crew arrived in Dali, but they didn't start filming immediately. They traveled all the way and just arrived in Dali at noon. Let's take a break and hold a start ceremony tomorrow morning.

Li Xiaohu brought several starring actors and staff to the film and television city to get familiar with the environment.

, "Hey, isn't that Juxianzhuang? Go in and take a look..."

, "There is Mrs. Ma's house in Xinyang City in front of me. Isn't there really a Mrs. Ma living inside, right? Haha..."

"Where is the Wuliang Mountain stone cave? I heard that there is really a jade carving of a fairy sister in it!"

, "The living fairy sister is right next to me, what other jade carvings do you have to look at?"

When we entered the film and television city, everyone was very interested and gathered together in groups of three or five to play around, because the buildings inside were basically all appeared in the novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". When everyone saw the corresponding buildings, they couldn't help but shout.

剧组里的每个人,不仅仅限于演员,包括所有的工作人员,都被李小虎要求读过《天龙八部》小说至少三遍,演员们甚至还要加倍,可以说几乎剧组里每个人都是《天龙八部》的书mi.

Even the group of technical oters in Feixiang Studio, which made special effects for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", have to take time to read "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" at least three times.

Because only when everyone has a sufficient understanding of the novel, they will be more handy when shooting it. Especially when making special effects, although there are renderings provided by Li Xiaohu, if a technician has not read the original novel and cannot figure out the pictures by himself, he will not be able to create a perfect visual effect.

In the past, there were often blockbusters in China, and Western special effects teams would be invited to join, but the final special effects were often unsatisfactory and criticized. This is because of the different cultures of the East and the West. Western movie special effects pay attention to the truth, but Orientals pay more attention to artistic conception and spirituality. But how do Westerners understand what artistic conception is? What is spirituality? Although the special effects produced are gorgeous, they lose their spirituality.

Li Xiao"hu wanted to cultivate his own special effects team, and there was also this reason why he wanted to shoot an epic and mythical blockbuster about ancient China in the future, so it would be impossible for Westerners to do it.

Only Chinese people can make special effects blockbusters with unique Chinese characteristics.

In fact, even in martial arts movies, many of the special effects in the Chinese are the most exciting. Stephen Chow's "Kung Fu" in his previous life were very classic, such as using sound bo to transform into a flying knife, such as lion roar, and Tathagata's magic palm that fell from the sky. These were all made by the local special effects team in Hong Kong.

If it were a Western special effects team, it would be very difficult to just let them understand such mysterious things, let alone make special effects.

In our opinion, many of them are very common things, but Westerners often feel that they have no way to understand them. Because they think that just fiddling the strings and making a little sound, why did it turn into a flying knife? The landlady roared with a big horn and shouted, how could it blow a tornado? The palm of a person is only that big, so how could he slap such a big pit?

It would be even more mysterious to let Westerners understand what sword energy is, what sword energy is, and what palm wind is. Since even understanding is impossible, how can we make corresponding perfect special effects?

Only Chinese people who grew up reading martial arts novels will become accustomed to these things. Many foreigners who claim to be "China" must be blinded when encountering things in this area.

But even Feixiang Studio, which is not unfamiliar with martial arts, Li Xiaohu still asked them to read "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" three times before handing them over the task of producing special effects. You can imagine that Li Xiao

Tigers attach importance to it.

, "Let's go in and have a look." Li Xiaohu waved to Lin Xiaohua, who was leaping around him.

The two of them had already eliminated their psychological barriers. In fact, they were just having a dream. Although they felt a little guilty, it was impossible for outsiders to know that in two or three days, both of them returned to nature and became closer than before.

Lin Xiaohua smiled sweetly, and while walking along the ancient streets with Li Xiaohu, he asked curiously: "Is there really a statue of a fairy sister in the Wuliangshan stone cave? Does it look like me?"

The fairy sisters mentioned by others are mostly teasing Lin Xiaohua, but when Lin Xiaohua talks about the fairy sisters, they are obviously the characters in the novel. Last time when the film and television city was laid, someone specifically asked Lin Xiaohua to take a photo of her costume, saying that she wanted to carve a jade statue in the Wuliang Mountain cave according to her appearance, but Lin Xiaohua himself had not seen the finished product.

"You'll know when you go and have a look," Li Xiaohu smiled. This film and television city was designed by him, and he was naturally familiar with the layout inside so much that he couldn't be familiar with it. He first walked straight to the direction where the Wuliangshan stone cave was.

, "It's changed me, it's changed me..."

As soon as Li Xiaohu and Lin Xiaohua walked into the Wuliang Mountain cave, they saw a group of people rushing to have a jade pendant.

It’s like a group photo, it’s naturally a jade statue of the fairy sister carved from the image of Lin Xiao.

The film and television city has not yet been completed and has not been opened to the public for the time being. At this time, the entire film and television city is not only the crew of the "Tianlong Ba Mo".

, "It seems that Sister Fairy is extraordinary. Everyone likes you very much!" Li Xiaohu raised his eyebrows to Lin Xiaohua and said with a smile.

"Where are you? Are you like the characters in the novel?" Lin Xiaohua's face was a little flushed, she smiled shyly, and said curiously: "Is this really carved out of jade?"

The statue is white and crystal clear. When it is pulled up, it floats like a fairy walking down to the mortal world. Although it is carved according to the image of Lin Xiaopa painting, it is more full of fairy spirit than Lin Xiaopa himself wearing a long dress full of urban atmosphere.

Although this is not the first time Li Xiaohu has seen Lin Xiao’s costumes, he still couldn’t help but feel a sincere amazement when he saw the statue. He didn’t know where the engraving master was invited. His craftsmanship was very good, and he fully demonstrated the classical temperament of Lin Xiao’s paintings.

, "How could it be a real jade carving? How much is such a large piece of jade worth? No matter how luxurious the film and television city is, it is impossible to place such a large piece of jade carving here. If it is moved away or broken, it is too late to cry." Li Xiaohu laughed in silence and said, "This thing is carved from white marble. Although it is also called jade, it is not the same as real jade. However, it has been treated with some special treatment on the surface, and it looks very similar to flawless jade."

Lin Xiaohua "Oh, I said, and suddenly smiled playfully, saying, "I'll go with the fairy sister." He said that, and ran to the statue. "He put on a V position at Li Xiaohu, smiling like a huā"

Brilliant and charming.

Li Xiaohu was wearing a camera around his neck. Naturally, he captured this scene without any chance and said with a smile: "The two fairy sisters take a photo together, it's really a feast for the eyes!"

"Yes, yes!"

There was a sound next to it, and the other staff members of the crew who gave up their seats to Lin Xiaohua nodded when they heard Li Xiaohu's words.

Among the actors who came to Dali today, "Lin Xiao painted one girl, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"

Although the five golden huās included in the Li brothers' company are full of beauties, except for Lin Xiaohua, the other four golden huās are very busy and did not come to Dali with the crew today. They also have to coordinate the schedule and wait until they have their scenes," they will arrive in Dali to participate in the filming.

Just coordinating the schedule of the actors is a very troublesome thing. Fortunately, Li Xiaohu doesn't have to worry about such things personally. In fact, with Li Xiaohu's strength, all actors can be required to temporarily put down other things in their hands and "rush to the crew to report them. However, it is completely unnecessary. It is not good to be too harsh by all artists from their own company.

Zeng Jianxin, who happened to join the Li brothers company and is about to play the role of Xu Zhu, has not been reported today because he is going to participate in the recording of the "Love Apartment".

However, Ning Boya came to Dali today, and the filming of "Deep Love" was also very tense, but Li Xiaohu and Tang Wan had already communicated in advance and asked her to concentrate on filming Ning Boya's scenes so that Ning Boya can make time for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Ning Boya's scenes in "Deep Love" have not been completely completed yet. After all, she is the male lead and has many scenes. However, she has been filming for a few months and there are not many scenes left. She will have to film "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" here first, but it will not have much impact. It will not be too late to rush back to make a comeback after the scenes here are finished.

Li Xiaohu had no intention of putting his former rival in love, and even planned to tailor an album for Ning Boya.

However, Young Master Ning didn't appreciate it and rejected Li Xiaohu's kindness with great courage.

I plan to write songs by myself and invest money in records by myself.

Although Ning Boya has long lost her intention to compete with Li Xiaohu, because the gap is too big, the series of brilliant achievements made Ning Boya not even have the courage to catch up.

However, Ning Boya is still very self-esteem, and Yu Dashao himself also studies music, so naturally he still has a fantasy of whether he is big or small about his talent, fantasizing that he can sing his own songs and become popular in the music industry.

So recently, Ning Boya has been hiding in a secluded place alone, thinking about creating. Just like today, everyone is out of the film and television city to visit, but Ning Boya chose to stay in the hotel.

The entire film and television city covers an area of ​​more than 700 acres. It is not big or small, but it is still very popular. Today it is said to make everyone familiar with the environment, but it can actually be regarded as a tourism.

But the only drawback is that the entire film and television city has not yet been opened to the public. Although there are no other tourists, they will not feel crowded, but the empty space seems too deserted. The film and television city was originally ready to have programs, but it will not be performed until a large number of tourists are pouring in. Some stalls in the city are not open. Just looking at various buildings, it is also very monotonous after a long time.

Li Xiaohu and Lin Xiaohua naturally walked together. Anyway, no reporters were involved in, so they were not afraid of any scandals. The people in the crew definitely did not have the courage to spread the director and boss's scandals.

, "What building is being built over there?" Lin Xiaohua suddenly pointed to the busy construction site in front of him and asked curiously.

"Can you know when you go over and take a look?" Li Xiaohu naturally knew what kind of building it was. After all, he was the designer of the film and television city, and the renderings of the entire film and television city were in his head. However, at this time, he was not busy showing off and took Lin Xiaohua all the way.

Many people in the crew also followed the movement and followed.

Li Xiaohu said that it was to let everyone move freely, but the film and television city was a little empty, and walking alone in it was a bit messy, so everyone walked together in groups of three or five.

, "Wow, what a big chessboard," Lin Xiaohua widened her eyes and shouted in surprise.

Workers were busy on a huge rock with a surface area of ​​nearly 100 square meters. The surface of the rock was carved into a huge chess board, and there were chess pieces carved from white marble and ink gold and jade. Judging from the size of each chess piece, it was probably 20 to 30 kilograms.

, "Director, is this the Zhenlong chess game in the novel?" The crew next to him asked Li Xiaohu.

, "Well, it's indeed Zhenlong chess game." Li Xiaohu nodded.

The placement of each piece on the chessboard is not random, but a few Go masters were specially invited to finally get such a Zhenlong chess game.

In the original Jin Yong's work, Su Xinghe was playing the chess game for decades, allowing all the martial arts masters who came to challenge them to return in vain. However, Xu Zhu, who did not understand chess, threw a random shot, and made the opponent surrender a large piece of chess pieces, thus breaking the chess game.

Such a Zhenlong chess game is not available in ancient scores, so it is really a painstaking effort to design a chess game like No. 1.

可尽管麻烦,这种细节却又是不能忽视的,观众们在看电视剧的时候,多半不会看得很仔细,也大概没几个人能看出棋局的不妥.但要是因此就随便糊弄过去”以后被人挑出刺儿来,那就太难堪了,而且那也不符合李小虎一贯精益求精的作风.

"Good guy, such a big chess board" is too exaggerated, right?"

"Only big can you have momentum!"

"Whoever wants to play chess with such a big chessboard is afraid that one chessboard will be exhausted!"

"I heard that every piece weighs twenty or thirty pounds. If you don't have some strength, you will have to be exhausted if you write a word. Let's not talk about playing a game of chess..."

"Old Su, this chessboard is prepared for you. Do you think your old bone can move a piece?" An old man in the crowd smiled. The old man was not surnamed Su, he was just "Su Xinghe, the actor of a role."

"After all, I am a top-notch master in the martial arts world. Isn't it a slight idea to play chess? Why don't you try to get out of here?" The old man smiled at another old man with a smile. The old man he teased was "Duan Yanqing, the actors of the role, are all martial arts masters.

The roles like the two old men who play soy sauce generally have no status in the crew, and are equivalent to being extras. However, Li Xiaohu still treats everyone equally today and brings everyone to the film and television city to feel the atmosphere.

When the workers saw Li Xiaohu's group, they were also a little curious.

Although most of the people who came today were behind the scenes and supporting actors, few of them were famous, at least a few celebrities had familiar faces and were recognized by the workers. For a moment, both sides watched each other.

Li Xiaohu and others watched the workers work. While the workers were working, they kept secretly looking at Li Xiao

Tiger and his group.

The crew is mainly young people, and the xing style is relatively active. After watching for a while, taking advantage of the workers' rest, he went up to chat. After walking around for a long time, everyone was a little tired and took this opportunity to take a break.

Seeing that Lin Xiaohua's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, Li Xiaohu was out of breath and was mostly tired, so he was not in a hurry to visit. He also found a place to sit down. The two of them were talking and laughing.

"Hello, are you Li Xiaohu?"

A somewhat timid voice sounded. Li Xiaohu looked up and saw that he was a boy about the same age as him. He was standing in front of him, smiling shyly. There were several peers standing beside the boy, all of whom were covered in dust, all of whom were workers on the construction site.

China's economy is relatively good in this world, but compared with the overall environment, local gaps between the rich and the poor still exist. There are not as many young people like this who come out to work and make money at a young age than in their previous lives, but it is not uncommon.

"Well, I'm Li Xiaohu, hello you guys." Li Xiaohu didn't expect that everyone would be recognized here, but he nodded calmly and said, "Is there anything wrong?"

Directors do behind the scenes work, they are all shameless, but they are not as star-studded as stars. Even if a powerful and idol-style director like Li Xiaohu, most people know his name and glorious deeds, but they may not necessarily know what he looks like. Therefore, Li Xiaohu doesn't need to disguise himself when he travels occasionally, and is often rarely recognized.

Besides, Dali is located in a remote location, and when the Internet has not yet risen, it is really not easy for Li Xiaohu to be famous. Perhaps even if there is no TV around him,

Lin Xiaohua, whose movies were released, has a higher probability of being recognized on the road than him.
