Parallel World, Hengdian Studio
"This isn't a small matter. It's a serious sci-fi movie.”
"The director said that money is not a problem, but the props must be realistic…"
"We've found several prop factories, but we're not satisfied. I heard that in this area, your craftsmanship is the best?”
In the messy office, an assistant director wearing sunglasses was looking for a place to sit.
From time to time, she looked at the young man opposite her through her sunglasses. It was hard to imagine that this overly old guy.
He was actually the most famous prop master in Hengdian.
Jiang Chen.
23 years old.
Just like the main characters of many novels, he was a transmigrator.
After his parents passed away, he took over the props factory.
Relying on a prop system, he had made quite a name for himself in Hengdian Studios and became the most outstanding prop master of the younger generation.
He would take on jobs that others did not dare to take on.
He would make the props that others couldn't.
In short, there was nothing he couldn't do.
Jiang Chen patted the dust off his shoulder and said modestly, looking at this rich and overbearing assistant director.
"His craftsmanship isn't the best, but it's passable.”
"If it's convenient, can I take a look at the item blueprint?”
Everyone who came to him to make props said that they were big productions.
After listening to this assistant director brag for a long time, he still did not know what to do.
The assistant director hurriedly handed a blueprint to Jiang Chen. He sounded proud.
"I told you, this is a serious big production.”
Jiang Chen opened the drawing and looked at it. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
The prop was 93 meters tall, cylindrical in shape, and eight meters in diameter. It was obviously a huge object, and there was an airplane lying on the pillar.
There was also a 100-meter-tall shelf next to it. It was connected to the cylinder by a support frame, maintaining a vertical posture.
Jiang Chen looked up at the assistant director opposite him and said in disbelief.
"The prop you want to make is a rocket?”
"Uh-huh…"
Seeing Jiang Chen's surprised expression, the assistant director couldn't help but raise his chin arrogantly.
"How about it? Do you dare to accept this job? The deadline is one month.”
Jiang Chen wasn't in a hurry to reply. He picked up the drawing and put it in front of him, looking at every detail carefully.
After a while.
Jiang Chen finally spoke.
"Do you have any requests?"
In other words, Jiang Chen would accept the job.
The assistant director rubbed his hands in excitement. There was still a month before the movie started filming, and the props had not been finalized yet.
It was great that Jiang Chen dared to accept it.
This hot potato was finally thrown out today, so he immediately added.
"I only have one request. It has to be real, the more real the better…"
"You can't fool people with wooden planks. The shell has to be at least metal.”
The more real the better?
Jiang Chen frowned, which was rare. He seemed to be in a difficult situation.
Seeing this, the assistant director thought Jiang Chen was going to retreat. He hurried over and said with a stiff neck.
"Don't worry, money is not a problem…"
Jiang Chen was finally relieved when he heard this.
"Alright, give me an address. I'll deliver the goods in a month..."
"Deal!"
The assistant director grabbed Jiang Chen's hand excitedly and shook it. After signing the contract and paying the deposit, he ran away without stopping.
He looked as if he was afraid Jiang Chen would go back on his word.
Seeing the assistant director leave, Jiang Chen closed the big iron gate of the prop factory.
Then, he returned to the office alone, picked up the blueprint on the table, and muttered.
"System, scan the blueprint…Build me a three-dimensional model."
As soon as he finished speaking, a light blue light swept over the drawing. The two-dimensional drawing, which was originally flat, had been scanned and supplemented by the system. A miniature three-dimensional rocket model floated in the air in front of Jiang Chen.
Ding! Item blueprint has been detected. Host, please choose the item's realism…
Jiang Chen's prop system allowed him to choose the degree of realism of the prop. The higher the degree of realism, the stronger the degree of reproduction. It could even reach 100% realism.
"Yes... 90%?"
Jiang Chen thought of what the assistant director had said just now. The more real the better. In the end, he shook his head.
"Forget it, the realism is 100%!"
At the same time, she was puzzled. Were the requirements for filming movies so high now? The props had to be as real as possible. Was he going to shoot a movie in space?
However, these problems were not something the prop master should be concerned about. He had already said that he did not lack money.
Then he would make it a real one.
Jiang Chen stretched his hands in the air and raised the 20-centimeter-tall projection model to half a meter high. Then he drew his right index finger, and the whole model kept spinning in the air.
"Yes... To be real…System, analyze the aero appearance…"
The analysis of the rocket's aero shape was completed. There were 37 areas that affected the overall aero performance of the rocket, which could lead to the risk of disintegration in the air…
" Calculating and modifying. When the wind tunnel test data is out, remind me…"
Jiang Chen lit a cigarette. Sitting on the rotating office chair, he stomped his feet to the tea machine. He said this while filling up the water.
" The altitude is over 90 meters, and it's already close to the Eagle Kingdom's Saturn V. Give me the Saturn V-core first-stage F-1 engine parameters…"
While drinking water, Jiang Chen looked at the rocket model floating in the air. The system was perfecting the shape of the rocket, and he canceled the order.
" Forget it, the F-1 is too big. I'll switch to Falcon's Merlin engine…"
...
The assistant director, who had already driven away in high spirits, might have overlooked a crucial problem.
In terms of the authenticity of the prop rocket, Party A and Party B were obviously at odds.
He had gone a hundred and eight thousand miles astray.
Strictly speaking, the assistant director could not be blamed for this.
As a prop, the production team naturally wanted it to be as real as possible. Only then would the effect of the scene be realistic enough.
Who would have thought that someone would be serious?
...
As the days passed, the deadline for the delivery of the goods was getting closer and closer.
The assistant director, who hadn't made any progress, was still worried. He decided to call Jiang Chen to urge him on the progress.
Jiang Chen, who was rolling up his sleeves to make a rocket in the prop factory, was wearing a welding cap. He was sticking his butt out to be welding the inner wall of the engine's exhaust pipe. It was high-intensity pulse welding. Few people in the country had mastered the technique of welding exhaust pipes.
Jiang Chen had just familiarized himself with it under the guidance of the system. While he was carefully welding, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
" System, connect me to the Bluetooth earpiece…"
Hearing the assistant director's voice in his earphones, Jiang Chen wanted to give this client a good electric welding.
"To make a long story short, I'm welding the spray pipe, so I can't be distracted…"
Hearing Jiang Chen's serious tone on the phone, the assistant director wasn't angry. Instead, he felt relieved.
She hadn't dared to contact Jiang Chen for so many days, because she was afraid that he would go back on his word and quit.
Speaking of which, what was a spout?
Forget it, let's leave the professional matters to the professionals.
He had to give it a five-star rating.
"Um, Teacher Jiang, I'm sorry to disturb your work. The investor just said that they want to print their logo on the rocket's outer shell. I'll send the document to your phone.”
"The investor said that the logo has to be big and eye-catching.”
"Alright, I won't disturb you anymore.”
The assistant director hung up the phone after he finished speaking. He had no choice. Only Jiang Chen dared to take this job. For the sake of the movie shooting, he had to let Jiang Chen finish the job no matter how hard he tried.
After Jiang Chen had finished welding the five sets of Merlin's engine jets at the bottom of the first level of the core, he got out of the rack. He took out his phone and opened the document sent by the assistant director.
He looked like an old man on the subway looking at his phone.
"Old godfather spicy sauce?"
On the document, there was a big picture of a kind old man with three big words at the bottom.
Old godfather.
It was a genuine national brand, and it cost eight yuan a can. Jiang Chen had eaten it often when he was still studying.
Jiang Chen, who was holding his phone, turned around and looked at his factory.
The first and second stages of the rocket, which hadn't been painted yet, were standing in the open space of the factory. Because they were too high, Jiang Chen had left the cover of the factory incomplete. Half of their heads were exposed. From a distance, they looked like two big chimneys.
He wanted to print this thing on a rocket?
Forget it, Party A's father had the final say.
Do whatever you say.
