Chapter 310 Eye-opening
"This is Xihaigu?"

Su Ze stood on the top of the mountain. This is Zhongwei County, Ningxia. At his feet was the vast yellow sand and Gobi Desert. The golden color stretched as far as the eye could see.

"This is Xihaigu." Zu Feng, who came together, looked into the distance and sighed: "After more than 20 years of development, the conditions have become much better. One can imagine how difficult it was back then!"

Su Ze nodded. He only knows a little about learning on paper, and standing here in person can realize the insignificance of manpower.

"Let's go." Zu Feng patted Su Ze's shoulder and said with a smile, "Let's keep our emotions in the play, let's go back."

The two returned to the set and saw the busy Kong Sheng. This time the filming was different from before, and they were asked to join the set one month in advance, just to learn the dialect for the experience of life.

"This is the environment of Xihaigu back then!" Kong Sheng took out a photo and showed it: "The art team can see it clearly!"

Su Ze leaned forward and looked at Xi Haigu in the photo where there was no grass growing, only layers of loess slopes and caves?

"Brother Sheng, it's not easy this time!" Art team leader Wang Jin complained with a bitter face, "Where can I find such a scene?"

"If you can't do it, you have to do it!" Kong Sheng resolutely said: "There is no discussion!"

Su Ze also shook his head secretly. The vegetation on the Huangtu slope is now lush, and there are still clouds in the forest.Although the foundation of the village is still there, the earthen houses have been surrounded by trees. Now Xihaigu has become a world dominated by pheasants, hares, wild boars and wild goats.

The reason for joining the group early is not only to experience life and learn dialects, but also to steal teachers.Seeing how the noon sun works, how the director coordinates, and how Fu Huadao operates, these are experiences that are hard to buy.

In a work, apart from the performance of the actors, everything the audience sees in the screen is related to art.This work is complicated and detailed, ranging from trains and planes to small water glasses in the hands of actors, all of which have to reproduce the background of the story.

Especially in period dramas, any flaws will make the audience play in an instant.

"I can only give you half a month for the art team!" Kong Sheng ordered: "Rebuilding a Jintan Village will not work for one more day!"

Seeing more than a dozen people leave, Su Ze nodded secretly. This is called execution, and Sunshine at Noon deserves to be the industry benchmark.

"Hey, it's not easy." Kong Sheng sat down, took out a cigarette and handed it to Zu Feng, and said helplessly, "The most difficult thing about period dramas is to convince the way. There are too many details and a headache."

"How are you preparing?" Seemingly asking the two of them, the eyes mainly looked at Su Ze and said: "I don't worry about acting skills. Ma Defu is not difficult for you, mainly the dialect."

"Very good." Su Ze smiled and said, "Drink tonight?"

"I'm still drinking Hammer. I drank too much yesterday." Zu Feng's eyes lit up, and he quickly answered with his lines.

"You guys don't drink, just eat, let's gossip."

"That's all right, I really don't drink, my head still hurts."

Listening to the dialect conversation between the two, Kong Sheng nodded secretly.

Needless to say, Zu Feng has already known the basics of many years of cooperation, and he can speak various dialects by mouth.The main reason is to worry about Su Ze. After all, he is young and experienced enough, so his acting skills must be fine, but the dialect...

Can you answer fluently in just a week after getting the script?

Really hard work!

Thinking of this is even more satisfying. After so many years of debut, I have worked with countless actors, and I have never seen any old drama talents.

The most basic ability to become famous is to be dedicated. The level can be high or low. Even if the acting skills are not good, it is a big deal for the director to work harder on the drama, and the progress is nothing more than slowing down.

What annoys me the most is to meet idiots who are not obedient with high eyesight and low abilities. This kind of person counts as one, no matter how famous they are, get out early!
Kong Sheng doesn't need it!
"I can't even look at Po Yi, why is it a tender wooden pouch?"

"Today I stumbled halfway, and I got hurt."

"Three punches, two victories and one cup, no belt, no kicks."

"Looking at Special Costume B, I'm hooked!"

"Your cat is begging for food, there is no mercy."

At the beginning, Zu Feng returned his lines, but then he went straight out of the script and started chatting in the local dialect.I have filmed two films before, and I learned the authentic dialect from fellow villagers in Ningxia. I didn't expect this kid to be so?
Not bad at all!

"Have you studied it?" Can't help asking.

"Well, I have learned a little bit about a spoon." Su Ze explained vaguely, it can't be said that he has practiced in the system for a few months.

"Very good." Zu Feng agreed: "It must be enough!"

"It's okay, I'll learn from my fellow villagers." Su Ze said seriously.

"Okay!" Kong Sheng slapped his thigh and said with satisfaction: "I don't worry about you two, Zhang Jiayi and Yanni are both from Northwest China, and there is still work in hand, and I will join the team as soon as the finale is finished."

"The remaining few are guest appearances, and there are not many scenes. Guo Jingfei and Reyiza will come in a few days, and then you can touch more scenes."

"That's it, you guys arrange to experience life yourself, I don't have to worry about it!"

Watching Kong Sheng leave in a hurry, Zu Feng was afraid that Su Ze might misunderstand him, so he explained: "Old Kong has such a temper, and he only trusts you like that. After getting along for a long time, he will understand."

Su Ze nodded with a smile. Every director has his own style, and five hundred is about the same. He ran around the set and had to watch everything before he could rest assured.

Every time I work with different directors and teams, it is a novel experience, not to mention the midday sun, the standard is the benchmark in the industry, and I am here to learn and steal the teacher, but it is a pity that Kong Xue can't come, otherwise...

I officially joined the group today and started to learn the dialect from my fellow villagers. I have no problem chatting basically, mainly local slang and dialect, these are the details.

Doing farm work with fellow villagers every day, feeding cattle, herding sheep, mowing grass, carrying water, bathing horses...

For nothing else, it is to polish your temperament through farm work, and you can't be a poverty alleviation cadre with oily head and flour noodles!
Observing while learning, I used to shoot urban dramas, and I didn’t need to set up special scenes. Even a spoon can be done by finding a local farmhouse.

This time Jintan Village is a big project, and I have really seen what it means to be a strong artist.

More than 20 people, together with the construction team, completed the infrastructure construction of the entire village in a short time, and the Eight Immortals crossed the sea to show their magical powers.

At first, I planned to clad wooden boards on the outside of the steel frame, and then made some wall effects to disguise it as a farm house. Later, I found that the Gobi wind and sand are too strong. When the wind blows, the house will move?
No choice but to start all over again.First lay the foundation, build a basic frame, and then do the wall effect.And found that this solution is not only inefficient, but also more costly than building a real house?
Because the Gobi Desert is full of stones and it is very difficult to dig, it was finally decided to remove the houses with interior scenes, and the rest of the scenes refer to the way the first generation of immigrants built houses back then: build houses without laying foundations.

However, rammed earth was used back then, but this time the art team used bricks, and the outer breadboard was thickened and firmed. Finally, the effect of rammed earth was used to disguise the appearance of the original adobe.

Although the house was built on flat ground, the weight of the bricks plus the weight of the planks and rammed earth is strong enough to resist wind pressure.

This is just the beginning. According to the development of the plot, Jintan Village must go through three different periods.The first phase is adobe houses with wooden doors, wooden windows, fences and courtyard walls.

A very complete example is the Shuihua family. She was the last to arrive at Jintan Village, and experienced the whole process from living in a nest to building an adobe house.

Only then did Su Ze know that the so-called Diwozi was the house dug out on the Gobi Desert by Diaozhuang immigrants?
