My movie scared the global audience to tears

The filming of "The Mummy" has begun, and the first scene shot is the scene where the heroine Lu Yiren, played by An Qin, goes to Kailuo Prison to find the hero Song Qiang.

This scene requires a large number of extras, but let alone Cairo City, the development of the film industry in the entire Afi country is relatively lagging, and the supporting labor union system is not very sound. There are only 400 registered actors in Cairo City.

There are many people, which is already too much.

So, Song Qi simply launched a wave of social recruitment directly through Mossad, planning to recruit a thousand extras from society.

Naturally, the extras recruited will not be very professional, but they only need to be good backdrops, which is not difficult at all.

But this wave of recruitment caused quite a stir in Kailuo City, because Song Qi's salary for extras was based on domestic wages, which ranged from 150 to 300 Chinese coins a day, which is equivalent to 10,000 Affi coins.

Between 22,000 and 22,000.

This is already equivalent to one month’s salary of ordinary people in Afei country!

As a result, in the afternoon before the filming started, many people from Cairo City arrived near the photography area with their bedrolls in hand, intending to queue up early.

The guard in charge had no choice but to call and notify the crew. When Song Qi arrived after hearing the news, there was already a sea of ​​people outside the studio. At least 3,000 people came, and the number continued to increase.

There will be trouble if there are many people. When Song Qi saw this, he immediately notified the director team and asked Xiao Ma to lead the team over and arrange an interview urgently.

There are generally no special requirements for interviews for group performances, as long as you are in good health and can understand instructions.

However, Song Qi specifically emphasized that it is necessary to find one-tenth of the special group performers with physical defects, such as lame legs, broken hands, hunchbacks, etc.

Because the background of this scene is a prison in ancient Aiji Province, it is normal for hands and feet to be broken.

This kind of group performance is a special type of actor, and the salary can be paid according to the maximum of 300 yuan.

The interview and selection process went very quickly, but it took the director team more than two hours to select enough actors.

However, the crew needed 1,000 extras, but there were more than 3,000 people who came to the scene. After learning that they were unsuccessful, the on-site interviewers were immediately unhappy and became emotional.

Seeing the excitement at the scene, the accompanying bodyguards stepped forward to protect the members of the directing team behind them.

Seeing this, Song Qi hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him for fear of conflict, and then asked the interviewers to recommend a few people who could walk the talk.

After some discussion, ten interviewees who seemed to be minor aristocrats were selected.

After discussing with them, Song Qi announced to all the interviewers that today's interview can only determine the performance quota after the filming starts tomorrow. This scene is expected to be filmed for 5 days, and there will be four more scenes in the follow-up, which will require one shot every day.

Thousands of extras.

If you want to perform a play for the next few days, you can find these people who have been appointed by him as contact points for the extras, that is, the few little nobles just now, and let them make unified arrangements.

As soon as this decision was announced, people who were interviewed became more honest.

If you can’t perform tomorrow, you can perform the day after tomorrow!

As long as you can perform, it's better than traveling in vain.

So, they gathered around the contact persons of the extras, hoping to become familiar with each other so that they could schedule the scenes for the day after tomorrow.

The so-called group performer contact person is the domestic group leader who is responsible for contacting the group performers.

But there are too few actors here in Kailuo City, so there is no need for so many extras, and there is no such special existence as the group leader born from the soil.

After Song Qi's push, the few nobles who became the leaders of the group may embark on a completely different path in the future.

However, in this way, the problem of conflicts between group performers is removed, and the safety of the crew can be guaranteed, killing two birds with one stone.

In the next few days, many people would come from Cairo every day and gather around the studio.

However, they did not cause trouble again and behaved in an orderly manner.

Several of those ten group leaders have gone offline and have divided into dozens of small group leaders.

With these group leaders maintaining order, the extras will be much more honest.

Every morning, they would come to the studio early and wait for the group interview. Those who passed the interview could enter the studio for filming.

Most of those who failed the interview would not leave, but would hang around the studio waiting for the interview the next day.

The flow of people will bring about economic flow. Starting from the next day, nearby residents began to sell noodles and sauces outside the studio.

By the third day, the neighborhood was almost turning into a small market.

But Song Qi didn't feel noisy, but was surprised.

So, starting from the third day, he issued a new instruction through the group leader, that is, interviewees must wear costumes issued by the crew before they can participate in the interview.

The group leaders can draw money from the performers. In just three days, the group leaders have earned more money than they could have earned in the previous year.

Therefore, they have now followed Song Qiyan's advice.

With their implementation, on the fourth day, all the people who auditioned for extras put on the costumes provided by the crew.

Wearing costumes and wandering around, they seemed to have formed a village and town where ancient Aegean people gathered around the studio.

This is what Mossad and Najido saw when they joined the team.

After seeing the extras wearing ancient Aji costumes, playing pebbles and eating traditional pita bread outside the set, Mossad couldn't help but sigh: "Song Qi, Najido is right.

Yes, you can create miracles wherever you go."

"I didn't create this, they were already here."

Song Qi explained with a smile and led the Mossad and his party into the set.

The character played by Mossad in the movie is the villain in the movie, High Priest Hope.

Both his body shape and temperament fit the role very well.

As for Najido, his role is that of a greedy prison warden.

The "Ancient Ai and Market" outside the studio quickly attracted the attention of the media, and many media came to report this grand event.

With the support of the media, the market around the studio has become somewhat fixed, and its scale is getting bigger and bigger.

Even some tourists come here because of its fame and specially come here to take pictures.

So Song Qi contacted the construction team, built some public toilets and other public facilities nearby for free, and set aside an area as a market for people going to the market to move around. This has also become a unique part of his future film and television base.

scene.

After discovering this, Mossad immediately regretted granting this land to Song Qi.

Why is this guy Song Qi able to turn waste into treasure wherever he goes?

But it was too late to regret it, the agreement had already been signed, and he couldn't save face by asking Song Qi to get it back, so he could only give up by using the opportunity of drinking to get Song Qi to agree to help him train a group of theme park managers.

Time passed quickly, and it was July in the blink of an eye, but only less than half of the movie was filmed.

"The Mummy" is different from "Apepp". A large number of scenes in "Apepp" are in the jungle, and the scenes are relatively simple.

But "The Mummy" has more scenes, a grander background, and is more time-consuming to shoot.

But the most difficult big scenes to shoot have been taken care of, and the rest are all scenes in the studio, so it was much faster to shoot.

On the last day of July, in the desert outside Kailuo City, bathed in the afterglow of the sunset, Song Qi and An Qin filmed the final kissing scene amidst the cheers and cheers of the crew.

"The Mummy" wraps up.
