Two buses and a few cars drove one after the other into the location designated by the Dog Warrior crew.
The doors opened, and after everyone else got off, Zhang Zian also got off with Famous and the two police dogs.
In the morning, after shooting the last set of training scenes in the gray and white courtyard of the Film City, most of the crew moved here. They came here to shoot the next set of scenes, and other equipment that would not be used for the time being would be transported here later.
Feng Xuan clapped his hands in front of the crew, waited for everyone to calm down, and encouraged them, "Good job, everyone. From this afternoon, the shooting will enter a new stage — a more difficult stage. I hope everyone can keep up the good work, make progress together, and work together to complete the shooting of this movie! "
The crew applauded.
Feng Xuan glanced at them. "Good! Next, everyone, do your own jobs. After lunch, I will check everything, and then we will start shooting! You can go now. "
Most of the crew members were experienced, and they knew what they were going to do, so they quickly dispersed. The lighting team went to set up the lighting, the extras went back to the bus to wait for their makeup, and a few small stars, including Lin Feng, stayed in the nanny van. Feng Xuan went to discuss with the cameraman about the arrangement of the camera positions. Only Zhang Zian and a few other newcomers were confused.
But he remembered Xu Junyu's advice — if you don't know what you are going to do, you'd rather stay idle than cause trouble for others.
So he took the three German Shepherds, found a stone shaped like a millstone, and sat down, watching the others busy.
He had read today's script many times, and compared it with the layout of the location, he quickly understood what was going to happen. In the script, both sides would shoot and exchange fire behind two piles of rocks, and the police dogs would detour from the side, crawl forward in the weeds, and rush into the enemy's position without anyone noticing. Feng Xuan was instructing the art designers to adjust the layout of the two piles of rocks, because several rocks were blocking the lens, so they could not shoot at the best angle.
As he watched, Zhang Zian's eyes locked on one person — Guan Biao, who was sitting on another rock two or three hundred meters away, playing with his mobile phone calmly, looking very relaxed.
Guan Biao came before the rest of the team, and Zhang Zian was a little worried that he would do something bad. However, after carefully studying the script, Zhang Zian felt that there was no chance for him to do anything bad, because there was no explosion scene in today's scene. At most, there would be blood bags hidden in the clothes of both sides after they were shot. This had nothing to do with dogs.
Zhang Zian was more worried about the scene of Famous crossing the minefield with several other dogs a few days later. By then, the new pyrotechnician should have replaced Guan Biao, but Guan Biao himself was still in the dark.
After watching for a while, Guan Biao did not move, so Zhang Zian took out his cell phone.
There was an intelligent surveillance camera installed above the cashier counter in the shop. Through the mobile app, one could remotely view the situation near the entrance of the shop and hear the sound through the microphone. He saw that Lu Yi Yun was painting with her head lowered. When a customer came, she would say a few words, skillfully handle the cashier, apply for a membership card, and answer some of the common questions of the customer. She would continue painting after the customer left.
Wang Qian and Li Kun were also helping out in the shop. They couldn't be seen at the cashier, but they would occasionally pass by the cashier while carrying items for customers.
After a while, Uncle Li delivered lunch for three people, put it on the cashier counter, chatted with Lu Yi Yun for a while, and then left. Lu Yi Yun greeted Wang Qian and Li Kun, and they took their lunches into the shop to eat.
Seeing that everything was running normally in the shop, Zhang Zian was relieved.
Lu Yi Yun raised her head, looked at the screen, clicked a few times with the mouse, and updated a new article on the official account.
Zhang Zian's cell phone immediately received a notification.
She explained in the article on the official account that the store manager was busy these days because he was assisting in the filming of a movie in Binhai Studio. She asked the customers who wanted to see the kittens dance to be patient. When the store manager was free, they could get their wish. Please continue to pay attention to the official account for the specific time.
The comments under the official account were made fun of by many regular viewers of Snowy's live broadcast room. They said that the store manager had finally gone to the sea to shoot a movie. Otherwise, why did he disappear when King Billy visited China again?
Then a lot of people flooded the screen, saying that the store manager had bowed down to offer chrysanthemums …
Zhang Zian was about to leave a message to clarify his reputation when he received a WeChat message. He opened it and saw that it was from Luo Qingyu, the president of the photography club of Binhai University.
Luo Qingyu: "The official account said that you are shooting a movie in a crew? Which crew are you from? "
Zhang Zian thought about it and felt that there was no need to keep it a secret, so he immediately replied, "The Dog Warrior crew is shooting in the wild."
Luo Qingyu: "Are there any big stars?"
Zhang Zian: "No, the biggest star is Lin Feng."
Luo Qingyu: "Oh, it's him … By the way, does the crew need a cameraman? I want to try. I can be a cameraman's assistant. It's okay if I don't get paid. I want to develop in the film and television industry in the future. "
Zhang Zian wanted to say that Luo Qingyu was being whimsical. After all, this was a regular film crew, how could there be a shortage of cameramen … Just as he typed a few words, he heard the new lunchbox guy shout, "Get your lunchboxes!"
It was important to get the lunchboxes, or they would get cold soon. He left Luo Qingyu aside and glanced at Guan Biao, who was still in the same place, so he went to get the four lunchboxes first.
The lunchboxes were much more sumptuous than before, but he still prepared an appropriate amount of stewed beef with potatoes, so that the three German Shepherds could eat their fill.
"Zhang, what are you doing? How about having lunch together? "
Zhang Zian had just heated up the lunchboxes. He looked up and saw Director Feng Xuan standing in front of him with a smile, holding a lunchbox.
"Nothing, Director Feng, please sit down." Zhang Zian gave up his seat.
"No, you sit down. I brought a folding stool." Feng Xuan magically took out a folding stool from behind, unfolded it, and put it on the ground. "Let's talk about the shooting in the afternoon while we eat."
Zhang Zian knew that Feng Xuan would not come to him for lunch for no reason. Feng Xuan did not stay idle during lunch every day. He strolled around with his lunchbox, sometimes checking the condition of the props and setting, and sometimes communicating with the crew members or actors. This might be his unique way to strengthen the cohesion within the crew.
Zhang Zian was right. Feng Xuan did think that way. Usually, Feng Xuan was very strict during the shooting, and he would reprimand anyone who made a mistake. However, he was also very kind during the shooting, and he would even apologize and encourage the person he reprimanded. This was the so-called carrot and stick approach.
It was getting dark early now, and the afternoon shooting schedule was very tight. Feng Xuan needed to discuss with Zhang Zian the details of how Famous and the two police dogs would sneak through the Gobi Desert to attack the enemy.
As they were talking, Feng Xuan suddenly noticed that Zhang Zian was picking out all the onions from the Kung Pao Chicken while talking.
Feng Xuan was a little unhappy. He felt that his mouth was dry, but Zhang Zian was not listening carefully. Feng Xuan used the tone of an elder, pointed at the onions he had picked out with chopsticks, and scolded, "You're a grown-up, why are you still picky about food? Onions are good stuff. They can kill bacteria, prevent cancer, and fight against colds. It's good to eat onions in such cold weather. It'll be troublesome if you catch a cold. "
Zhang Zian quickly explained, "I'm not picky about food, but dogs can't eat onions. I didn't expect the Kung Pao Chicken to be cooked with onions, so I picked out the onions before giving them to them. "
Feng Xuan was stunned. He had never heard that dogs couldn't eat onions. His wife was responsible for feeding the Labrador at home, so he had no idea what dogs could or couldn't eat. So he asked, "Dogs can't eat onions?"
"Yes, because onions and onions contain disulfide, which is very good for the human body, but it's poisonous to dogs. After eating onions and onions, dogs will have an acute hemolytic reaction, which manifests as hematuria. If the amount of hematuria is large, it may even die, "Zhang Zian answered.
Feng Xuan realized that he had wronged Zhang Zian. "Oh, I'm sorry. You can continue to pick … Also, should we tell the other dog trainers about this? In case their dogs eat onions by mistake. "
He was most worried that the supporting actors in the crew would accidentally get injured, so he asked.
Zhang Zian nodded. "We can remind them, but I think they should all know."
Feng Xuan didn't quite believe him. He walked around the venue with his lunch, and found that the other dog trainers had also picked out the onions from their lunchboxes. They were cursing while picking out the onions, saying which pig made the dark cuisine and put onions in the Kung Pao Chicken …
After walking around, he returned to Zhang Zian and said with admiration, "You're right. They've all picked out the onions."
Zhang Zian smiled easily. "That's normal. If they don't even know this kind of common sense, how can they be dog trainers?"
Feng Xuan recalled that Zhang Zian once said that cats shouldn't be exposed to mosquito-repellent incense and insecticide. Now that he knew that dogs couldn't eat onions, he couldn't help but sigh. "Raising cats and dogs is really troublesome. There are a lot of things to pay attention to."
Zhang Zian agreed. "That's right. So if the trouble caused by raising cats and dogs exceeds the fun they bring, they may be abandoned by their owners."
Having lived with the crew for many years, Feng Xuan ate very quickly. He finished his meal quickly, took a few sips of the orange juice that came with the lunchbox, and said to Zhang Zian, "I will inform the new lunchbox guy and ask him not to pick a lunchbox randomly in the future. He will discuss it with you first, just in case something goes wrong."
"Okay, leave the empty lunchbox here. I'll throw it away later," Zhang Zian promised.
Looking at Feng Xuan's back as he left in a hurry, he felt that it was really not easy to be a director. He had to be a father and a mother, and he had to take care of everything in the crew. Maybe a more famous director wouldn't have to work so hard.
