Hengdian Film and Television City is a large-scale comprehensive tourist area integrating film and television tourism, vacation, leisure and sightseeing.

At its peak, it received more than 300 crews a year, and dozens of crews were filming in Hengdian at the same time in one day.

Currently, this is a world dominated by costume martial arts dramas and costume movies. In many cases, just by looking at the film and television city's launch list, you can basically judge the trend of domestic film and television dramas at present and in the next year or two.

Here, ancient and modern, traditional and anti-traditional, the most expensive and the cheapest, stars at the top of the pyramid, producers and extras who can't afford 100 yuan can be seen everywhere.

It is said that an ordinary employee who has not been out of Hengdian for more than ten or twenty years may be familiar with the most important producers and art directors in the country.

Liu Qingshan is one of them. Although he has only stayed here for three years, he has traveled to more than a thousand crews.

Here, there are no Beijing-Shanghai-Guangzhou-style appointments. Unexpected visits, pigeon releases and constantly changing times are all understood and accepted.

Because the crew's time is constantly changing, no one dares to make a commitment to the time, and the entire town of Hengdian has a temporary feeling that there is no tomorrow.

"I've seen a lot of old-school traditions in the crew here. For example, a start-up ceremony consumes thousands of incense sticks. When I was an extra, I was often asked to play a dead person!"

This is Liu Qingshan chatting with Chen Zuming about some past events while walking.

Kunal got off the car halfway, and Chen Zuming became his temporary follower.

"Have you really played a dead person? Is there any extra money?"

"It's an extra ten or twenty yuan. If a character dies, there's a red envelope under the pillow. The money can't be too much, because it has to be spent on the day. Some crews will keep the incense burner on after turning on the film.

They have to take it with them to the theater until the filming is completed. Even the taxi driver believes that the Mount Fuji-like Bamian Mountain is the guardian mountain of Hengdian. Some producers believe in Buddhism and bring a Buddhist shrine every time they come to Hengdian for filming.

"

"Before, I always went to Zhuozhou and Xiangshan for filming. This is my first time here in Hengdian, and it's really not that good!"

"Hey, you can speak Northeastern dialect? You can hardly speak everywhere. You were born with a golden key in your mouth. You don't understand that it's more difficult for the group performers at the bottom. Gangs form groups to compete with other forces for jobs and turf.

You haven’t experienced it, have you?”

"Well, the group is very hierarchical, and there are strict rules on who should be with whom."

Their arrival this time was actually met by someone, but perhaps because there was no management level on the set, the receptionist was only responsible for guiding the way and helping to pull the heaviest suitcases.

Not far away, the same official bus arrived. As soon as the bus stopped, several large black umbrellas quickly greeted it.

Moreover, the people holding the umbrellas could judge by experience who was in charge, and the big umbrella accurately covered the heads of several older people among them.

It is common knowledge in every film and television studio that actors who are slightly famous will not follow the bus, so the people who came to pick up Liu Qingshan and others did not notice Chen Zuming who was wearing a mask.

Following the guide, we arrived at the filming location of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". There were people in groups of three or three in front of the door, waiting for something.

As I passed by now, a small group of people were quarreling.

"What did you do? I saw you filming me."

"I'm a fan of Huang Yiming. I'll wait for him to come out and take a look. It has nothing to do with you."

"Bring me your phone! I saw you filming me. You little girl, I have been staring at you for a long time. I have been here every day for the past few days."

At first, the man was unwilling to give up, which angered the latter.

"I photographed you?! Do I have to photograph you? Who are you? Why do you still want to look at my phone! Besides, did you say hello to the celebrity when you secretly photographed the celebrity? If you secretly photographed the celebrity, I can't secretly photograph him.

Have you?"

Thinking that it was his first time to experience the crowd of star-chasing people, Shi Hui beside him involuntarily slowed down his pace, apparently thinking about gossip.

Liu Qingshan hurriedly pulled her over: "Let's go quickly. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Didn't you see so many mobile phones and cameras?"

Shi Hui suddenly understood and quickly passed over in a few steps.

This hotel can't be said to be very high-end, but it has a large enough open space in the yard.

The crew must move in and out of a lot of large-scale equipment, props and the like every day, so having a big venue can be a lot more convenient.

Zhang Beard is currently waiting in the conference room on the second floor. Others in the crew also reported today. Soon Liu Qingshan saw many familiar faces.

Although more people don't know him, they are very familiar with the face next to him. That is Chen Zuming, the son of eldest brother Chen Long.

Those people were wondering in their hearts at the same time, this man

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

What appears on the non-Hong Kong cast?

As a result, Liu Qingshan, who was beside him, gradually became more important.

But as more and more people who know him appear, the news that Liu Qingshan will play Guo Jing spreads like wildfire, and various speculations about him are also gaining momentum.

This description is not an exaggeration. "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is a truly large crew, with more than 200 people qualified to come to this conference room.

Fortunately, the official crew meeting also started. Under the auspices of deputy director Guan Xingchi and investor representative Tian Mingzhu, the truth was quickly revealed.

At this time, Liu Qingshan was sitting in the row belonging to the action design team, and next to him was Uncle Ping, whom he had always heard about but had never met.

Uncle Ping is very famous in Hengdian, no less famous than some big stars, mainly because he has participated in too many film crews, and most of them stay with famous martial arts celebrities in Xiangjiang.

Although he did not establish a certain class or a certain stunt group, we all know that he introduced many local martial arts in the country.

"I have grown older in the past two years and have rarely shown up so directly. Li Qi, Shengli and the others have been able to take charge of their own business, which has left me with a lot of free time. However, this time it is us mainland laymen who really take the lead, and I can't help but come."

Get involved!”

Uncle Ping is a capable old man who always holds his head high. Although he is over sixty, thick calluses can still be seen on all the exposed joints.

When I shook hands with him, I felt that my grip was extremely strong. It was obvious that he had practiced Eagle Claw Kung Fu, Grappling Hand or other grasping techniques.

Although Liu Qingshan has been working in Hengdian for three years, he has only heard of his name for a long time.

"Brother Qi and Brother Shengli are very strong and are very suitable for this. And it can be seen that they have learned a lot from their counterparts in Xiangjiang. They are very authentic inside and out."

Liu Qingshan's dialogue was full of respect.

"Well, they are all good, but I appreciate you more because you have accomplished what I have always wanted to do but failed to do!"

Uncle Ping's biggest wish is that mainland martial arts dramas should be hosted by mainland martial arts dramas.

He has been wandering in Hong Kong for more than 20 years and has tasted all the ups and downs in Hong Kong. Because of his identity as a mainlander, he finally had to return to the mainland. No one can be more eager for the rise of domestic martial arts than him.
