"Kill them!"
Zhu Yuanzhang shouted.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Countless cannons and muskets opened fire at the same time, and a rain of arrows once again shot towards the tall ships.
The waves churned violently and the sound of cannons could be heard continuously.
Even Lin Yi, who was on the shore, felt the earth shake and the mountains shake.
He also felt the cruelty of war and the strength of the Great Ming Dynasty.
Seeing this scene, the audience in the live broadcast room was also dumbfounded.
Was this a special effect?
This special effect was too realistic!
Where did Lin Yi find so many extras for the live broadcast that lasted for most of the night? How did he set up such a scene?
At this moment, the members of the History Research Institute felt their hair stand on end, and they had goosebumps all over their bodies.
It wasn't like they hadn't watched historical dramas before.
However, the scene in front of him was more realistic and shocking than a historical drama!
If they weren't still sitting in this meeting room, they would probably think that he had returned to Big Ming!
"The two dragons fight to determine who is the winner, and the Red Cliff ships sweep the sky.”
"The blazing fire shines on the sea of clouds. Zhou Yu defeated Cao Gong here.”
Elder Zhao clenched his fists tightly, as if his nails were about to dig into his flesh.
However, his eyes were still fixed on the screen.
He was excited and passionate.
On October 3, 1363, Chen Youliang was killed by an arrow.
Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang won!
The battle at Fanyang Lake was indeed a classic battle of the Burning Red Cliff. However, this battle on the water lasted 37 days from the 20th of July to the 26th of August.
The length of time, the scale, the number of troops, the number of ships, and the intensity of the battle were all unprecedented!
And this battle also cleared all the obstacles for Zhu Yuanzhang to destroy the Yuan Dynasty!
This was also the opening that Lin Yi had deliberately arranged.
What could be more shocking than Zhu Yuanzhang's battle that determined the world and let people understand the strength of the Ming Dynasty?
Only Da Ming could have such soldiers and such combat strength!
However…
Lin Yi clearly did not consider what kind of shock this scene would bring to everyone.
The station heads of the Central Television Station.
"This…is a special effect?"
Director Sun turned his head in a daze and looked at the other directors who were also in a daze.
If it was just a scene before, they could still accept it. However, the scene of the battle now made them unable to understand. They could only be dumbfounded.
If this scene was made with special effects, how much money would it cost?？
Could it be that he had spent all 60 million yuan in this episode?
Assistant Director Liu swallowed and stuttered,"Probably…probably not?"
What was the price of special effects in China?
Every second, every frame was burning money!!
60 million yuan?
Even a period drama wouldn't dare to shoot like this!!
Director Sun took a few deep breaths, but he still felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. His clenched fists were drenched in cold sweat. He could not help but look at Assistant Director Liu again."Do you have the contact information of any famous directors? Hurry up and ask them how much money this episode will cost!!”
"Ah, yes, I'll ask now."
Assistant Director Liu quickly took out his phone.
Director Sun was the head of the station, and he had always been fawned on by the director.
However…
In order to avoid suspicion, Director Sun rarely contacted these directors, so this task fell on his head.
"Beep, beep, beep!"
A series of notifications came, but no one answered the phone.
Deputy Station Head Liu dialed another number.
Very quickly.
A middle-aged man's voice came from the phone."
"Yo, Deputy Station Head Liu, why are you free to call me today?”
"Alright, I'm busy! Stop mocking me. Why didn't Director Wang pick up when I called him just now?”
"Director Wang is filming? What's the matter? Do you want me to help you pass the message?"
"I have something to do! Anxious! It's urgent!"
……
At the Capital Film and Television Base.
A middle-aged man rushed into the recording studio.
"Crack!"
"Rest for ten minutes!"
As soon as he entered, the middle-aged man caught up with the intermission. He quickly jogged to the director's chair and lowered his head to whisper a few words to the grizzled and serious-looking Director Wang.
Director Wang sat up straight and glared at the middle-aged man."Battle of Fanyang Lake? Assistant Director Li, are you making fun of me?”
"No, no, Director Wang, I wouldn't dare! It was the Central TV Station's Station Head Sun who asked the Sixth Deputy Station Head to ask about it. When I heard that it was all using special effects, I was also shocked.”
Assistant Director Li waved his hands.
Director Wang was a famous director, especially good at shooting films with historical topics.
His understanding of this area was naturally better than his, the assistant director.
If it was anyone else, he would have just brushed it off.
However, this was a question from the central station. Even if it was the deputy station head, he did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
Moreover, he had to be careful.
And it was the Central TV Station's general station head, Sun Hao!
"Ha…"
Director Wang chuckled, although he found such a ridiculous statement ridiculous.
But he had to give face to the Central Television Station.
"Show me the scans."
"No…no footage. I heard from Assistant Director Liu that it's a live broadcast!”
"What?"
Director Wang was slightly stunned, and then he looked angry."Assistant Director Li, oh Assistant Director Li, you've been an assistant director for so many years. Don't you know that shooting at night is far more difficult than shooting during the day?!”
"Besides, which battle would dare to use all the special effects!”
"The battle at Fanyang Lake was during the day. How could such a magnificent scene be filmed at night? Don't you know how dangerous the explosion scenes are? If you're not making fun of me by talking about a live broadcast, then what is?!”
Even if the people at CCTV didn't understand, how could Assistant Director Li not?
Great battles could use special effects.
However, it was usually used for long-range shots. If one wanted to shoot a scene that was as imposing as a rainbow, they would use special effects.
According to Assistant Director Li, the faces of the extras were all carefully observed.
How could it be a special effect?
It wasn't that special effects couldn't be done, but how expensive would they be?
Other than using it for scenes that could not be shot, who would waste special effects on extras?
More importantly, it was authentic!
It was impossible to achieve the level of realism that Assistant Director Li had mentioned!
Looking at the angry Director Wang, Assistant Director Li smiled bitterly."Director Wang, don't be anxious. Let's watch the live broadcast first!”
As he spoke, Assistant Director Li handed the phone that he had just turned on to the live broadcast room to Director Wang.
Director Wang lowered his head and looked at the screen.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Gunpowder cannons exploded one after another, and the huge ships burned in the thick smoke.
Countless soldiers were holding guns and crossbows, firing at Chen Jun who was swimming in the water.
The flames of war billowed as if the entire world was engulfed in the flames of war.
Director Wang stood up immediately, but his eyes were still staring at the screen, whether it was the composition, the setting, the tall ships, or the actors…
Every frame and every second was extremely clear.
The grand scene and the intense battle were far more realistic than he had imagined.
This…
It was the battle of Fanyang Lake that he had in mind!
"No, that's impossible!"
"How is this possible…"
Director Wang muttered to himself, unable to believe that the screen was a live broadcast.
The filming of such a big battle.
Even if he were to film it, it would take half a month, or even a month.
How could it be a live broadcast?
Could it be that this was a film that the Central Television Station had filmed in advance?
Director Wang held his breath. Even if this was a film that had been shot in advance, it was impossible for the scene to be so grand without special effects.
However…
However, he couldn't see any traces of special effects!
This was simply a perfect masterpiece!
"Quick, quickly call Assistant Director Liu back!”Director Wang was so excited that he even forgot about his own phone. He pushed his phone directly to Assistant Director Li. Assistant Director Li's hand trembled, but he quickly dialed Deputy Station Head Liu's number.
"Assistant Director Li, what do you think?"
Just as Deputy Station Head Liu's voice rang out, Director Wang snatched the phone away."Deputy Station Head Liu, where did you find the special effects team?”
"This program is simply a perfect masterpiece!”
"If your show can be filmed like this, how are we going to film a TV series or movie?”
“……”
In the conference room of the Central TV Station, the group of station heads looked at each other as they listened to the excited voices coming from Assistant Director Li's hands-free phone.
Director Wang had worked with Central TV quite a few times before, so how could they not know?
However, this was the first time they had seen Director Wang so excited!
"Director Wang, calm down!"
Director Sun interrupted Director Wang's excitement and quickly said,"This program was not produced by our Central TV Station, so we don't know where we found the special effects team.”
"Director Wang, we just want to ask, based on your professional standards, how much money will this episode cost?”
Upon hearing Director Sun's voice, no matter how excited Director Wang was, he was still very excited.
He did not continue.
Instead, he thought for a moment and slowly said,"It's impossible for this show to use all the special effects. If it wasn't a live broadcast, based on the scene, it would only cost about one to two million yuan per second!”
"Of course, different special effects teams charge different fees.”
Director Sun couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He felt his mouth and tongue dry.
The battle at Fanyang Lake.
It was definitely more than ten seconds!
"Then…then what if it's a live broadcast?”
"A live broadcast…Although the possibility of a live broadcast is not high, if it is really a live broadcast, it will cost at least ten million per second!”
At this moment.
The entire conference room was extremely quiet.
Even the sound of breathing had disappeared.
They knew very well that it was impossible for Lin Yi to record the program in advance in such a short period of time.
A live broadcast, at least ten million!
How much did this episode of the program cost?
A sky-high price!
