Director: The special effects are too expensive, so I had to make real shots

Chapter 336 No matter where it is, explosion is an art

About five hundred kilometers away from the Guanghan Palace lunar base in the Campanus crater, an experiment is undergoing final debugging work.

This experiment will grow a mushroom on the moon.

"Director Xu, can we go to the scene?"

Ma Yong came to Xu Nuo early this morning and asked if they could go to the observation site of the lunar nuclear test.

Because they, the actors, also wanted to see a nuclear explosion "up close".

Not everyone can see this thing. Xu Nuo had an explosion before when he was actually filming "Oppenheimer" on the Blue Star, but that time was relatively "secret" and no one was aware of it. We don’t know when it exploded, but we only know that the International Atomic Energy Agency and China did arrange the explosion of that nuclear prop.

But this time, Xu Nuo still wanted to actually shoot a nuclear explosion for the movie "The Wandering Earth".

As the main actors in the movie "The Wandering Earth", Ma Yong, Xiong Li, and even Teacher Zhong Dengwen naturally hope to see the "true face" of this lunar nuclear test.

"I said it doesn't count."

Xu Nuo spread his hands and said to the actors under his hands.

Although this lunar nuclear test, for director Xu Nuo, it is also a real shot of a lunar nuclear explosion.

But this matter, after all, it is arranged by the Science and Technology Administration and the Space Administration.

It's hard for Xu Nuo to intervene, right?

However, as long as the Science and Technology Administration and the Space Administration agree, then Xu Nuo will naturally not mind taking Ma Yong, Xiong Li, and Teacher Zhong Dengwen to the safe observation area of ​​the lunar nuclear test to watch the lunar nuclear explosion.

"Everyone, if you want to go to the lunar nuclear test safe observation area, you can apply to the Guanghan Palace Lunar Base. If the application is approved, you can go there."

At this time, the voice of AI Jade Rabbit sounded in the base room.

"You heard it, Yutu has already told you the method. When Director Chen and Colonel Luo Wei arrive later, I will also tell them about this matter."

Xu Nuo told Ma Yong and the others not to worry, and told Director Chen and the others that they would go if they could. If they couldn't go, there would be nothing they could do.

"Thank you Director Xu!"

Ma Yong immediately expressed his gratitude to Xu Nuo.

As a science fiction writer and an actor in the movie "The Wandering Earth", Ma Yong really wanted to see a real nuclear explosion.

I had only seen Ma Yong on TV before, but it was completely different to watching it live.

In fact, for Ma Yong, the most shocking scene of a nuclear explosion that he has ever seen is the movie "Oppenheimer" that Xu Nuo shot and released before.

At that time, Ma Yong went to the cinema and bought the biggest screen to watch "Oppenheimer". I have to say that the scenes shot by director Xu Nuo were indeed shocking enough. Ma Yong was so awesome when he saw it.

Now, he finally has the opportunity to watch a nuclear explosion "up close", and Ma Yong is definitely going to fight for it.

In addition to Ma Yong, Xiong Li also wanted to see it, not to mention teacher Zhong Dengwen.

"Okay, do you want to go back and wait for news from me later, or just wait here with me for Colonel Luo Wei and others to arrive?"

Xu Nuo asked Ma Yong and Xiong Li again.

"How about waiting here."

After several people looked at each other in confusion, they all felt that it would be better to just wait here for Colonel Luo Wei and Director Chen to come over and see if there is any drama in this matter.

"Row!"

Xu Nuo nodded.

So he and his actors waited here for Colonel Luo Wei and Director Chen to arrive.

Previously, the Railway Bureau was also based at the Guanghan Palace Lunar Base, but the Railway Bureau was mainly responsible for the work of Tiangong Space. As for the Tiangong Space Station, Xu Nuo had previously discovered TO metal meteorite materials in the lunar soil and lunar rocks on the back of the moon. , so the Railway Bureau was "ordered in the face of danger" and put aside other work at the Guanghan Palace lunar base in advance. After returning to the Tiangong Space Station, it took the Tiangong Space Station out of the near-lunar orbit and transported the sample research materials required by the Academy of Sciences back to Lan. The star is gone.

About half an hour later, Director Chen and Colonel Luo Wei finally arrived at Xu Nuo.

Of course, Xu Nuo was not idle during this period. Actors such as Ma Yong, Xiong Li, and Teacher Zhong Dengwen happened to be here, so Xu Nuo took this opportunity to tell them about the plot of the scenes to be filmed later. , and some things to pay attention to.

Because after the actual shooting of the lunar nuclear test ended, Xu Nuo's "The Wandering Earth" still had some plots to shoot on the moon.

For example, Bai Yutang, who plays the role of Liu Peiqiang's master Zhang Peng, had to film the scene where Zhang Peng and Mao Zinov, who he played, brought nuclear bombs to the moon without hesitation and formed a phased array to detonate the moon. In a short scene of just a few minutes, there are a lot of things that need to be portrayed.

Xu Nuo has fully prepared actor Bai Yutang and Maozi actor Artyom.

Especially Bai Yutang, who plays Zhang Peng, in this plot, first wants his apprentice, Liu Peiqiang, played by Xiong Li, to take Mao Zi's lunar module and return to the Navigator space station.

This is also a plot scene that highlights "touching", but unlike the one on the Tiangong Space Station, this scene is mainly about the relationship between master and apprentice, which makes people cry.

In addition to this plot, Zhang Peng, played by Bai Yutang, has another scene that echoes the lines of the previous plot.

But Xu Nuo hadn't filmed that scene yet. At the beginning of the movie, the master Zhang Peng asked his apprentice Liu Peiqiang, "Is the earth beautiful?" Then when it came to this part of the plot, it echoed back and forth. When Zhang Peng detonated the nuclear bomb, in The moon looked up at the Earth, which was devastated by moon debris and teetering on the brink of life and death, but still said that the Earth is beautiful.

Yes, this blue planet, no matter what it is like to human beings, it will always be the most beautiful place in human hearts.

Xu Nuo can be said to have full confidence in Bai Yutang, an actor.

Because like Teacher Zhong Dengwen, he is also a national first-class actor, and Bai Yutang is younger than Teacher Zhong Dengwen in terms of age.

It is conceivable that there is no need to worry about Bai Yutang's acting skills.

Just when Xu Nuo was deeply immersed in talking about the subsequent scenes of "The Wandering Earth" with everyone, Colonel Luo Wei and Director Chen came over.

"Director Xu, when you have time, you are talking about dramas with us actors."

Director Chen came forward and praised him: "He is indeed a world-famous director in China."

"You have to work within your duties, so you can't waste time, right? Director Chen, Lao Luo, when do we set off today?"

After Xu Nuo stood up, he first asked about setting off to the moon nuclear test site. "Old Xu, are you ready?"

Colonel Luo Wei also asked.

"Everything is ready. I'm just waiting for you to come over and tell me to leave. Oh, by the way, there is one more thing... um, a little thing."

Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Xu Nuo just happened to mention it to Colonel Luo Wei and Director Chen to see if they could get Ma Yong, Xiong Li and the other actors to go with them.

"Director Xu, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

Director Chen was very cheerful. Anyway, the order he received was to successfully complete the lunar nuclear test and at the same time fully cooperate with director Xu Nuo to conduct actual filming.

"It's like this. We actors also have a rare trip to the moon. They also want to participate in the real-life shooting of the moon explosion."

Xu Nuo said this matter not too directly, nor too tactfully, but it could be said to be just right.

After hearing this, Colonel Luo Wei and Director Chen looked at each other.

Then Director Chen said with a smile: "This matter is not a big problem, as long as we report it to the Science and Technology Administration and the Space Administration."

Later, Colonel Luo Wei also smiled and said: "Old Xu, you can arrange this kind of thing, because this is not only a lunar nuclear test, but also the actual shooting of your movie "The Wandering Earth", and they are all The core actors of your movie "The Wandering Earth"."

The meaning of Colonel Luo Wei's words is very obvious. People can actually be taken, but because this matter has never been mentioned before, neither Xu Nuo nor Colonel Luo Wei thought of it. After all, they There are still a lot of things that need to be done on the moon every day.

Xu Nuo has to shoot movies every day, and he also takes time to do some research during this period.

Colonel Luo Wei will always be responsible for the lunar nuclear test.

After hearing what Director Chen and Colonel Luo Wei said, Ma Yong and Xiong Li immediately smiled on their faces.

Because from the looks of it, it can be settled that they will go with Director Xu to the lunar nuclear test site.

"Jade Rabbit, please apply to Blue Star through the Tiangong Space Station."

Director Chen immediately made arrangements.

Then, Colonel Luo Wei said: "How many actors are you going to go to?"

"Including Guan Ju, there are six people in total."

Xu Nuo replied immediately.

"Then it will be no problem for our convoy to take you with us. In this case, I will ask someone to make arrangements. Lao Xu, then your film crew should also seize the time to prepare."

"it is good!"

As the director of the movie, Xu Nuo is naturally responsible for the actors under him. Since this time he can go and observe the explosion of the lunar nuclear test, Ma Yong and Xiong Li have to listen to themselves. Scheduling.

"I'll give you half an hour to get ready, and then we'll set out with Colonel Luo Wei and the others to the lunar nuclear test safety observation area."

Xu Nuo said to Xiong Li and the others.

"understand!"

Everyone nodded and then went back to prepare.

The main thing is to put on your own spacesuit. After all, you are going to a place almost a thousand miles away, so you must make appropriate arrangements for this trip.

Fortunately, this time is different from the last lunar backside exploration team. The last lunar backside exploration team was mainly based on ground teams, because the team brought various ground collection equipment.

But this time, the main purpose is to send people there, so the flying transport ship can be used as a means of transportation.

In fact, Colonel Luo Wei and Director Chen arranged exactly this.

The Guanghan Palace Lunar Base originally used a batch of transport ships, and with this trip from the Tiangong Space Station, twelve transport ships sent supplies. In fact, not all of them returned to the Tiangong Space Station, because according to the original plan, These twelve transport ships will also send back a batch of resources from the moon. But as a result, something happened with TO materials. The Railway Bureau and Tiangong Space Station left temporarily, and they will return in two months. return.

Then a group of transport ships temporarily stayed at the Guanghan Palace Moon Base.

Therefore, the current transportation capacity of the Guanghan Palace Moon Base is completely sufficient. There is no need to worry about a few more people or a few more sets of unmanned steel battles that Xu Nuo specially prepared for Xiong Li and the other actors. Worry about shipping.

When Xu Nuo came to the moon this time, he brought a group of unmanned steel suits. Each actor under his control could have one set for emergency use. This is what Xu Nuo, as a director, did for his actors. Be well prepared for a trip to the moon.

When going to the lunar nuclear test safety observation area this time, Xu Nuo also decided to bring all the unmanned steel suits. Firstly, it can serve as his own mobile shooting robot, and secondly, it is also for the safety of the actors. Provide a layer of protection.

After Xu Nuo and Luo Wei were online and Director Chen was ready, they boarded the transport ship.

Xu Nuo, Colonel Luo Wei, Director Chen and others boarded a transport ship. The transport fleet set off from the Guanghan Palace lunar base and headed to the lunar nuclear test safe zone [-] kilometers away.

"Old Xu, the actors in your film crew are also very dedicated. Most people have heard of nuclear explosions, but you actors are good. You want to see our lunar nuclear test this time. .”

Director Chen used a relatively relaxed tone and chatted with Xu Nuo on the transport ship.

"Isn't there a safe observation area? In addition, I have already filmed a nuclear explosion on the Blue Star. This time it was on the moon. For actors like them, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Maybe in a lifetime Just this once.”

Xu Nuo spread his hands and said calmly: "No matter where it is, explosion is an art. As an actor and artist, it is always right to pursue art."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Colonel Luo Wei burst out laughing when he heard this and said, "Look, Old Chen, when these words came out of Director Xu Da's mouth, they suddenly became artistic."

"After all, he is a world-famous director."

Director Chen also followed Colonel Luo Wei's joking words and continued.

"Are you two making fun of me?" Xu Nuo glared at his good friend Colonel Luo Wei, and then suddenly said seriously: "Not everyone like them has the courage to leave Blue Star. Those who have gone to outer space or the moon, it would be nice to leave them with a good memory."

"Then they are the only ordinary witnesses of this lunar nuclear test."

Colonel Luo Wei thought this was quite meaningful.

Several people in the transport ship were chatting with interest, while the fleet was flying and moving quickly over the moon according to the formation. The countdown to the explosion of this "nuclear prop" on the moon began.
