Chapter 1119 Filming Location

Hearing the announcement blaring in the aircraft cabin, everyone could not help but feel refreshed.

After a nearly forty-hour journey, the plane arrived at Stanfield, Halifax, the capital of Nova Scotia, Canada.

Departing from Beijing International Airport and experiencing two transfers, it was an arduous trip for everyone.

The plane descended slowly while circling.

After the plane landed, Tan Yue took a deep breath, thinking that he had finally reached his destination. Then he took out his cell phone and reported to Chen Ziyu that he was safe.

It was twelve o'clock in the evening in Beijing, and Chen Ziyu did not reply to the message.

"Finally landed!!" Other members of the crew couldn't help but sigh.

“After this experience, I never want to fly again.”

"Brother, you really spoke my heart!"

"Don't worry, you will sit there for the same length of time when you go back."

Everyone got up and started packing their things to get off the plane.

"Hello Mr. Tan! I am a fan of yours. Can you give me an autograph?" A flight attendant came over.

"Okay, no problem."

"Thanks!"

Tan Yue directly signed a photo of himself and handed it to the other party.

Because it was a transfer, the current flight attendants are all foreigners.

Meeting fans on the plane shows that Tan Yue is now very well-known internationally.

In fact, almost all the flight attendants on the plane knew Tan Yue, but they did not go over to ask for his autograph.

Listening to the flight attendant's arrangements, everyone got off the plane one after another.

The flight took too long this time, and many people felt dizzy when they got off the plane.

Tan Yue quickly arranged for the accompanying assistant to make statistics on the crew members.

Everyone looked at the sign coming out of the exit and saw the pick-up staff holding the sign.

The pick-up person waved his hand: "Mr. Tan!"

Tan Yue walked over directly.

"Mr. Tan, you've had a hard time traveling."

"Xiao Feng, has the bus to pick you up been arranged?"

Xiao Feng was sent here a long time ago to take charge of various tasks here.

"Already at the door."

Tan Yue looked back at the crew members and said, "Let's make arrangements so that everyone can get in the car and go back to the hotel to rest. This time it took too long and many people were uncomfortable."

"Okay, I'll go over and make arrangements now."

Tan Yue said: "In addition, there are two people who are particularly weak. We will send them to the hospital later in the evening and give them a check-up. The expenses will be reimbursed directly by the company."

"Understood." Xiao Feng called on others to help.

After the crew members got their luggage, they came out one after another.

Xiao Feng specially arranged for another person to hold a sign at the exit, for fear that someone would come out from behind and find the place.

"Mr. Tan, please come this way."

Under the leadership of Xiao Feng, Tan Yue sat in a commercial vehicle and said: "Xiao Feng, go and count the number of people first, don't leave anyone behind."

Xiao Feng responded and went out to continue his work.

Tan Yue leaned back on the chair and took a deep breath.

Now he is also very tired and just wants to go back to the hotel and lie on the bed and have a good sleep.

Tan Yue took out his phone and checked it. Chen Ziyu didn't reply to the message, so he put down the phone and closed his eyes to take a nap.

More than ten minutes later, Xiao Feng knocked on the car door and said, "Mr. Tan, everyone is here. Shall we go back to the hotel now?"

"Go back." Tan Yue said, "Xiao Feng, you can sit in my car at the party. I have something to ask you."

"good."

Under Xiao Feng's arrangement, two buses set off.

Then came several commercial vehicles.

The commercial car Tan Yue was in left last.

"Mr. Tan, there is water here. Please drink some first."

Tan Yue said "hmm", took a sip, cheered up, and asked, "How is the situation here?"

"Everything is going smoothly here." Xiao Feng said: "The government here and the people in the film and television base all know your name, so when they hear that you are going to make a movie, it is very convenient to do many things. . Including the pier we want to rent, it was a small tourist attraction before, but now we can use it directly. ”

Tan Yue also understood this situation.

There are roughly two reasons why the other party agreed so happily.

First, it is because of Tan Yue's current international reputation.

The second and most important reason is that the filming locations used by Tan Yue when filming movies abroad have all become popular tourist attractions in recent years without exception.

This time, Tan Yue's new movie was shot in this place, and the local area was also considered for future use.

Xiao Feng continued to report: "Now all preparations for the terminal have been completed, and the film and television base we want to rent has been agreed with the other party, and can be used when we need it."

Tan Yue nodded and said, "You can make arrangements in the afternoon, at half past three. I'll go over and take a look."

"Are you going to the pier? Or the film and television base?"

"Look at the time. If you have time, go over and have a look."

"No problem."

Tan Yue continued to ask about the shooting location.

At this time, there were completely two scenes on the two buses in front.

In the first car, I either lay down and slept, or stared out the window in a daze, and could hardly hear any voice.

On the second bus, it was very lively.

"Look over there!"

"Can you please stop being so excited? It's almost the same as my hometown!"

"The scenery looks pretty good to me!"

"You've been in the office for too long. Go out more."

"I looked it up online. This is a tourist city."

The bus was mostly filled with young people, so it looked particularly lively.

Everyone looked at the scenery outside and chatted, and they didn't look tired at all.

Halifax is the economic and cultural center of eastern Canada, surrounded by the sea. Reefs, beaches, white sand beaches and ports, an hour's drive will definitely reach the seaside.

The car drove for more than 40 minutes and stopped at the door of a hotel.

"Mr. Tan, I'll take you to the room."

"Is anyone watching their check-in?"

"Someone is in charge."

"What about lunch?"

"I have specially arranged it for the hotel. They found a local Chinese chef to prepare lunch today."

As before, the crew brought two chefs from China to solve the problem of eating.

Even if you can find a Chinese chef abroad, it is not pure Chinese food.

After all, it is abroad, and it must be a fusion of some local flavors.

Tan Yue nodded. Everyone was very tired. They would eat some at noon and let the chef they brought cook in the evening. Then he got off the business car and said, "Everyone, hold on a little longer. The check-in procedures will be completed soon. The hotel has prepared some Chinese food for everyone. If you want to eat, you can come down to eat in the evening."

"Thank you, Mr. Tan!"

Tan Yue said, "Let's go."

Under the leadership of Xiao Feng, Tan Yue returned to his room.

Half an hour later.

"Xiao Feng, go and see if the other people in the crew have encountered any problems. You can help solve them. I will rest for a while. We will go to the shooting site at 3:30."

"Do you want to eat something? I'll ask the waiter to bring it to you."

"No, I don't have an appetite for the time being."

"Mr. Tan, then you rest, I'll go out first."

"Go."

Tan Yue looked at the layout of the room. It was a suite. You can see the sea directly when you open the curtains.

Although you can feel the sea breeze, the weather is still quite hot.

Fatigue swept over again. Tan Yue felt his eyelids were a little heavy. He got up to wash and prepare for bed.

On the other side, Xiao Feng came to the restaurant downstairs.

"Why are there so few people coming down to eat?"

"Everyone is too tired, many people just lie down to rest."

Xiao Feng said: "Go and ask if anyone wants to eat, and send it to their room directly."

"I've already asked, they have no appetite, and some people are eating instant noodles upstairs directly, some are not used to the food here."

"Okay, you stay here for a while and see if there is anyone else who needs help."

He naturally knew how it felt to take such a long flight to get here. On his first day here, he didn't eat a single bite of food, and he didn't even feel hungry at all.

Then Xiao Feng contacted other people, and two people were still in the hospital.

Three ten in the afternoon.

Tan Yue, who was sleeping, was awakened by the alarm on his mobile phone. He didn't get up immediately, and lay in bed for a while.

Although he only slept for more than an hour, he rested very well because of the deep sleep.

Next, he had to go to the set, and Tan Yue changed into a more casual outfit.

'Ding Dong, Ding Dong. ' Hearing the doorbell, Tan Yue got up and opened the door.

"Mr. Tan." Xiao Feng said.

"Come in."

Tan Yue asked, "Has everyone settled in?"

"Yes, but only about ten people came down to eat, and the others almost went straight back to their rooms to rest."

"Let them rest, the journey is too far." Tan Yue said, "Prepare dinner well."

"Understood."

Tan Yue glanced at the time and said, "Let's go and check the situation on the set."

Two people came down from upstairs, and several other people from the director's team were there.

This time we have to see the feasibility of the filming plan agreed upon at the beginning. If it doesn't work, we have to make adjustments as soon as possible.

Everyone sat in the car and chatted.

Xiao Feng first played the latest on-site situation of the filming.

After watching it, one of them said, "It's the same as what we discussed at the beginning. I think there is no problem."

"The effect presented by the video and the reality will be somewhat different. I will reserve my opinion for the time being. I will take a closer look after arriving at the scene."

Tan Yue looked at another person.

"I have the same opinion. This is the first time we use this method to shoot. Can our method work? We still need to go to the scene to take a look."

Several people spoke one after another and expressed their opinions.

Tan Yue didn't say much about this, and he thought so in his heart.

How to frame? What kind of lens should be used? Everything still needs to be checked on the spot.

After more than 20 minutes of journey, they arrived at the destination unknowingly while everyone was chatting.

"Mr. Tan, we are here."

Everyone got off the car one after another.

"Mr. Tan, long time no see."

"Mr. Tang Sheng, long time no see! You have worked hard during this period!"

The two shook hands.

Tang Sheng said: "It's not hard. I am most happy to see the simplified version of Titanic with my own eyes. I have seen it on the seabed before."

"Thank you for your help, otherwise our work would not be so fast." Tan Yue looked up at the behemoth parked at the dock.

Although it was only half, it was already quite shocking. He could imagine the sensation caused by the first appearance in front of the world.

The people in the director team behind Tan Yue were also shocked.

At this time, they really understood the difficulty of shooting that Tan Yue had always emphasized.

Before, they only saw some data. This time, the real object appeared in front of them, and they knew that it was very difficult to shoot well.

"Mr. Tan, can I take you around?"

Tan Yue joked: "I don't think anyone is more familiar with this place than you."

Tang Sheng took Tan Yue and his party to visit.

In order to ensure safety, several people put on life jackets when boarding the ship.

Several people first came to the deck.

Tang Sheng introduced: "Mr. Tan, the deck and the bow have been refitted by us, and now they are exactly the same as the bow of the Titanic."

Tan Yue walked to the bow and unconsciously stretched out his arms. The classic scene in the movie "Titanic" once again emerged in his mind.

In the next two hours, everyone slightly adjusted the shooting plan based on the actual situation.

During this period, Tan Yue received a reply from Chen Ziyu.

However, they were busy with work, so they just said a few words and ended the chat.

"Mr. Tan, we can go to the film and television base now." Xiao Feng came to report.

"Let's go, let's go over there and take a look."

Everyone set out for the film and television base again.

This is also the only film and television base in Halifax.

Because it can simulate the effect of the ocean, many movies are shot in this place.

After arriving at the film and television base, it was already past six o'clock in the evening.

Tan Yue and others were directly taken by the staff to the office of a building and met the person in charge of the film and television base.

"Hello, Mr. Tan Yue. I am the person in charge of this film and television base. My name is Horace Harlan."

"Hello, Mr. Harlan!"

Horace Harlan said, "When Mr. Zheng Tong came over, I thought he was joking. I didn't expect that you were really going to shoot a movie here."

"Looking around the world, there are not many film and television bases that can simulate the ocean effect. Thank you for providing us with this help."

"You're welcome. It's our honor that the director with the highest box office in the world's film history can shoot at our film and television base."

Tan Yue was a little embarrassed by the praise. This was the first time that a foreign friend said to his face that he was the director of the highest box office movie in the world's film history.

Tan Yue asked, "Mr. Harlan, can we take a look at the set now?"

"Of course there is no problem." Horace Harlan stood up and said, "Please come this way."

The film and television base is very large. Several people sat in the car and listened to Horace Harlan's introduction to the film and television base.

After some understanding, they learned that more than two hundred movies have been shot at this film and television base.

Gradually, a huge shed appeared in everyone's eyes.

Horace Harlan said proudly, "This is it."
