The nearly twenty-seat Toyota Coaster, carrying several old Flying Tigers and their relatives, went to the shooting base of Flying Tigers, which was the airstrip where the crew restored.
When the old people followed the car to this red land, Li Mu could see that each of them showed a different kind of excitement and excitement.
The although airport used for filming was not the original site reconstruction, but because the airstrip was also on such a piece of red land, it seems to the old people that it is almost the same as that of the year.
The thing that excites them most is the dozen or so P-40C aircraft parked at the airport. It is said that half of them are real aircraft and half of them are engraved item(s)s.
Li Mu ca n’t tell which of these planes are real planes or which are item(s), but these old people are very discerning. Crying, but there are so few looks at indistinguishable planes no one wants.
Ning Hao was amazed before Li Mu: "These old men have really good eyesight. I have stayed here for so long. I can't tell which is true and which is fake. They can see at a glance." >
Li Mu smiled and asked: "You don't know which one is true and which is false, how do you know that the old men are right?"
Ning Hao laughed: "I can't tell, but remember the number of the fuselage, the singular number is the real machine, and the double number is item(s)."
"Okay." Li Mu nodded and walked to the old man Sun Xiaozhong. At this time, he was stroking the P-40C propeller with his trembling hand, vigorously turning the propeller slightly, full of excitement. With excitement.
Li Mu asked him: "Mr. Sun, do you want to take a picture with this plane? I will ask the photographer to help you take some pictures?"
When the old man Xiao Xiaozhong heard this, he was excited first, then looked at himself again, and found that he was wearing the most common white short-sleeved shirt today, and said a little embarrassedly, "I am not suitable for taking pictures with it like this, or in the future I have a chance to say it again, and I will dress more formally ... "
Senior Han Zili nodded again and again, saying in a joke: "If you take a picture with these old guys, how can you wear it so casually, you have to wear a full tunic anyway?"
Han Zili ’s son could n’t help but say, “Dad, just put on your former pilot ’s costume and take a photo with it, it ’s so memorable.”
Old man Han Zili said with a laugh: "You said it is simple. The Flying Tigers sent me my uniform. I wore it until the end of the War of Resistance, and I changed the uniform of the national army. That suit has always been treasured, but I went to Taiwan in 49 years. At that time, because the aircraft luggage was overweight, it was detained. "
Li Mu patted his head and said, "Our crew has replica military uniforms of the Flying Tigers. Let the crew of the crew take you to try it on. Hundreds of military uniforms are always suitable for you."
"Really ?!" The two old men, as well as the other two China veterans of the Flying Tigers, looked at Li Mu in surprise.
Li Mu immediately nodded and said, "I also borrowed a uniform and took a photo yesterday. I told the director to let him arrange it."
Speaking, Li Mu greeted Spielberg and told him his thoughts in English, saying: "Steven, I will let the staff take some old gentlemen to put on a suitable military uniform and let the photographer Come and take some pictures for them, which means a lot to them. "
Spierberg nodded without hesitation: "Then I will arrange this, our stunt pilots are still there, do you want them to come out and fly the plane to fly to some old gentlemen?"
Li Mu asked in surprise: "Can I fly at any time? Do I need to apply to the military?"
In the impression of Li Mu's, the airspace of China is managed by the Air Force, and the flight routes of civil aviation also require the approval of the Air Force, and the crew of the crew must have the Air Force ’s approval.
Spielberg said: "It is common sense to apply for a few days before each flight, but our local military district has given us great support, knowing that we are going to shoot aerial shots, so we gave It is a privilege for us to report directly to the military area before the plane takes off. As long as the military area nods, it can fly immediately. "
Li Mu asked again: "How long does it take for the military region to approve?"
Spielberg said: "In a minute or two, we are directly contacting the air force's air traffic control. Our area is not on the civil aviation route, so as long as the military determines that it has no activity in our area, we have not received it. Flight requests from other general aviation companies will give us permission immediately. "
Speaking, Spielberg said: "Our P-40C, as well as our camera helicopter, can basically take off at any time."
Li Mu nodded with satisfaction, said: "Then let the pilots of the flying team prepare for it, and wait for the old gentlemen to change their uniforms and take off to pay tribute to them."
For Hollywood's large and medium-sized film and television companies, they have very high requirements for film quality. In the process of filming, special effects are only used in scenes where computer special effects must be used. Other lenses are used as much as possible. Real shooting, because only the real scene is the most perfect, take Tom Cruise's "TopGun" for example, the reason why it became the classic of many viewers' eyes in the air combat movie, largely due to the large number of real fighters in the play For the camera, if all computer special effects are used, the scene will definitely be greatly reduced.
So, in "Flying Tigers", many of the air combat shots are real shots. The ordinary aerial shots are completed by helicopters. The special shots of air combat chasing and rolling are handled by an aerobatic plane. Now the real scene of the Flying Tigers fighting with the enemy in the air.
For this reason, the crew specially hired an aerobatic performance team from the United States to take charge of aerial shots.
Li Mu suddenly remembered many war films and TV dramas of China's later generations. In the impression, all the domestic war movies and TV dramas he had watched used the five-mao special effects when he was involved in the shot of the plane, even the war in his mind. In the TV series NO.1, "My Commander My Mission", all the shots about the plane are also clumsy five-mao special effects, which are extremely scenic.
Originally, the expeditionary army was going to Myanmar by plane. It was originally a tragic thing, but the plane on the screen was on a piece of crumbling dirt, and the feeling of restraint was suddenly stingy, and the plane was in The lens on the ground can be seen at a glance that the item(s) is really too careless, and the special effects lens after the plane is lifted is utterly messy, and the three-year-old child can see that the plane is fake.
It is true that this has something to do with the budget of film and television dramas, but why should n’t the budget be tilted toward quality? To the next TV series, the cost of 200 million yuan, 100 million 80 million is an actor's pay, as for how to shoot, it doesn't matter, the five cents special effects against that's alright, so there have been a lot of cutout film and television dramas.
Li Mu feels that it may not be able to influence the future development direction of China film and television dramas, and it may not be able to improve the industry's overall requirements for film quality, but at least it can set an example and make a few high-quality movies first. Make a sample of the China film industry.
Thinking about it, several old people changed their flying tiger uniforms one after another, and walked out of a large military green tent. They were outdated in although years, but they put on pilot uniforms and wear them again. Putting on the pilot's sunglasses, it feels really imposing.
There are China faces and American faces among these old Flying Tigers. They are the same as the old photos of the Flying Tigers, except that the young people who were brave and brave at that time have now become elderly people. However, apart from their bodies, everything looks the same as it was then.
The uniform is still the same as the one in the past, the airport is still the same as the airport in the past, and the airplane is still the same as the airplane in the past.
At this time, the aerobatic pilots had drilled into six P-40Cs, and the aircraft started, lining up to the end of the runway.
As soon as the old people changed their clothes at didn't expect, these planes had already started, and they were immediately surprised to ask why.
Li Mu said to everyone: "The aerobatic team members will lift these planes to the sky to pay tribute to you, and also allow you to see the scene of this plane flying in the blue sky again."
The old people nodded excitedly, their eyes fixed on the plane, and they couldn't even blink.
The military district has given the flying team permission to fly. The radius of 20 kilometers and the lifting limit of 5,000 meters are completely open, so the six P-40C fighters accelerate, lift, and lift one by one one after another. The formation was completed and the show flight began.
The old people applauded while the happily looks at aircraft changed its flight over the airport. After a few low-level passes, Li Mu carefully discovered that every old man had a smile on his face, but also had tears on his face. .
Senior Sun Xiaozhong said: "These planes looks at shuttle back and forth above their heads, and all they have in mind are the scenes where they were driving the same fighter plane and fighting with the enemy in the sky. This kind of feeling seems to be like another world. In front of you. "
The six planes flew in the air for half an hour and performed many thrilling flight postures before landing on the runway. After the six planes were parked side by side, Li Mu said to several old people: "We It ’s time to take pictures now. "
Several old men nodded and came to stand in front of a P-40C plane. The old men of the two countries helped each other. As in those days, they took pictures in front of the plane. An old American flying tiger team wiped tears while While sighing: "When we used to take pictures, I always like to climb on the wing and the fuselage, and now I can't climb anymore."
Senior Sun Xiaozhong patted his back and smiled: "John, that time has passed. We used to sit in the cabin and used to drive these guys to heaven. Now, there is no such opportunity anymore, now. It ’s not our time anymore. "
The old American Flying Tiger named John nodded gently and said, "I can meet them again, touch them, listen to their engine sounds, looks at they are flying in the sky, I am satisfied ..."
