Is it reasonable for me to build a space elevator when filming The Wandering Earth?

Liu Lang was able to bring in real soldiers, weapons and equipment for shooting, and Lin Hao, as the assistant director, was already impressed.

But he didn't expect that the fighter jets he invited would actually use live ammunition to attack.

The anti-aircraft missiles actually hit their targets in front of their eyes.

As the assistant director in charge of logistics of the crew of "The Wandering Earth", Lin Hao's first reaction when he saw this scene was how much the destroyed 'Marauder drones' and fighter missiles were worth.

On the other side, Wu Jin, Andy and others were also dumbfounded on the spot.

Wu Jin is also one of the few actors in China who has filmed large-scale modern war scenes, and he has also touched real guns, and even test-fired one or two magazines accompanied by professionals.

The tanks and armored vehicles in those battle scenes are all on the verge of scrapping, and the barrels and holes are welded to death.

Even so, he found it enjoyable.

However, today I witnessed the air battle of the crew of "The Wandering Earth", which completely subverted Wu Jin's perception of the scene of "modern war films".

He finally knew why there wasn't much green screen around.

Missiles were used, and drones literally exploded.

Isn't this scene more realistic than the animation rendered by CG special effects?

"Are all the modern war scenes on your mainland like this?"

Andy's impact is no less than Wu Jin's, in Hong Kong Island movies, a scene with hundreds of group performances can be regarded as a big scene, and the explosion of a few real cars in a drag racing scene can be praised by entertainment news.

Fighter planes flew in real flight, participated in filming, and even launched missiles to destroy large drones on the spot?

Hua Tsai never dreamed of such a scene.

。

Everyone was still in a state of confusion, and the port terminal area not far away, which was arranged as a 'space elevator ground fortress', began to make big noises again.

More than a dozen improvised rapid-fire close-in anti-aircraft guns began to turn their muzzles as a piercing electric bell rang out, and began to strafe the group of 'Marauder drones' in the sky.

The rapid-fire close-fire anti-aircraft gun, equipped with red tracer shells, fires ammunition that looks like lasers, almost connecting into laser-like rays in the air.

More than a dozen 'Marauder drones' that were strafed exploded in the air in an instant, turning into fireballs.

This scene was accurately captured by a large unmanned camera on the edge of the battlefield in the air, and became an important part of the scene of [Space Elevator Defense].

". "

Assistant director Lin Hao is now completely numb.

As a non-professional wild military fan, Lin Hao used to have some understanding of close defense artillery.

Take the Type 1130 close-in defense gun, which is commonly equipped in the Dragon Kingdom, the shell it uses is the DEC115 type 11-tube 30 mm tail stabilized shelling armor-piercing projectile, which costs about 1,000 yuan per shot.

According to the rate of fire of 10,000 rounds per minute, just a three-second burst of fire is almost more than 500,000 yuan.

And now, on the set, there are ten rapid-fire close-in defense guns firing at the same time, and those slightly crisp 'buzzing' sounds in the ears of onlookers are like a hammer in Lin Hao's ears, making him uneasy to hear.

"It's over, it's over, no matter how much the budget is, it can't stand such a build. "

。

Not to mention the assistant director who was distressing about the budget, Liu Lang, who was shooting, looked at the picture on the screen of the camera screen and was fascinated.

Although the sci-fi short film [Space Elevator Battle] he produced also has similar pictures, the delicacy and realism of the close-up live pictures cannot be compared with CG animation.

"Very good, very good, the picture presentation is great!

Get ready, and the next shot will take a look at the perspective of the fighter cabin of 'Zhang Peng'.

Hearing Liu Lang's words, Sha Yi, who had been standing behind the director and looking at the shooting screen, was stunned on the spot.

The role he plays is 'Liu Peiqiang's mentor 'Zhang Peng'.

"Director, are you calling me?

I didn't see a simulated cockpit here.

Sha Yi looked around in wonder, he couldn't shoot this shot without equipment.

"Mr. Sha Yi, someone will take you to the machine soon, and I will communicate with you through the headset.

When the time comes, it will be performed according to the script.

As soon as Liu Lang finished speaking, a HNA armed helicopter slowly landed near the set, and several soldiers dressed in the uniforms of the Dragon Naval Aviation rushed over.

Liu Lang pointed at Sha Yi to them, and several soldiers immediately nodded knowingly, and then, Sha Yi boarded the helicopter gunship under their leadership with a confused expression.

"No, why did we leave the set?

Where are we going to shoot?" As

the HNA helicopter gunship took off, seeing that he was getting farther and farther away from the filming base, Sha Yi became more and more confused.

It didn't take long for a huge flat steamer surrounded by many frigates and supply ships to appear in the field of vision.

"Hang. Aircraft carrier?!"

Looking at the neatly arranged fighter jets on the deck below, Sha Yi was shocked.

"Mr. Sha Yi, for this reshoot, let's use the actual footage of the fighter jet.

Don't worry, you're in a two-seater trainer with a pilot behind you.

You just have to act according to the script, it's very simple.

Liu Lang was communicating with Sha Yi through the headset, and on the other side, Sha Yi had already rushed the ducks to the shelves and entered the cockpit of the trainer plane that had been prepared for a long time.

As Liu Lang said that the preparations were completed, the training plane was ejected by electromagnetic catapults and jumped into the sky from the deck.

It didn't take long for more than a dozen carrier-based fifth-generation fighters to also take off and fly behind the trainer fuselage to participate in the shooting.

With the performance of several difficult maneuvers and flight actions of the training aircraft, Sha Yi, who was sitting in the driver's seat of the front cabin, had full blood pressure, and the whole person instantly entered a state of excitement.

"Teacher

Sha Yi, how is it? Are you excited, are you not excited, are you not energetic?" "Have you entered the performance state?"

"Director, hurry up, I won't be able to bear it if I fly again

!" "Okay, all units are ready, ten seconds countdown!" Seeing

the perfect rendering of the camera screen, Sha Yi shouted "Nof,

hurry up and shake people!" After leading a large number of fighters to counterattack, Liu Lang announced with satisfaction that the filming of this clip had been successfully completed.

"It's so enjoyable!" After

Sha Yi returned to the shooting base, his legs were still weak after a long time.

When Wu Jin, Andy and others learned that Sha Yi had just been sent to the deck of the aircraft carrier, aboard a real military training plane, and flew accompanied by many fifth-generation fighters to shoot air combat scenes, everyone looked at each other in shock and speechless.

"How hard is Director Liu Lang's background?!"

everyone began to think about this question in their hearts.

"Director Liu is a real-life maniac, you better be mentally prepared. Hearing

Sha Yi's advice, Wu Jin and Wang Zhi glanced at each other and looked at each other, tomorrow it would be their turn to play the [Battle in the Space Elevator Cabin] scene.

You can't really shoot in space, right?
