The anti-fraud bureau needs a promotional video, and you're going to make a "Desperate Gam

Standing in the center of the stage on set is Chen Daoming, who plays King Ying Zheng of Qin.

He is a national treasure-level actor in China. He has been in the industry for more than 40 years and has portrayed countless roles, covering almost all of China's 5,000-year history.

He has portrayed emperors from various dynasties, making him a veritable emperor specialist.

So much so that when he went out shopping, he was often respectfully addressed as "Your Majesty".

This project is a key national film project. When Chen Daoming learned that he would be playing the role of Qin King Ying Zheng, he was shocked.

Moreover, since he was starring in the movie "The Three-Body Problem," he took it even more seriously.

Chen Daoming had been preparing for this for a very long time.

He prepared for this scene for six months, and by the time filming began, it was already April of the following year.

Chen Daoming has a deep understanding of the history of the Qin Dynasty, even though his role in the film lasts no more than five minutes.

He shared many of his insights with Shen Qing.

Not only did the actor himself value this role, but the film production team also attached great importance to it.

The First Emperor's clothing was carefully considered.

As I said before, historical dramas must not have the slightest error.

Thanks to the efforts of the costume team, the dragon robe worn by Qin Shi Huang was meticulously designed.

Historically, Qin Shi Huang's black dragon robe followed the principles of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.

The First Emperor wore the Tongtian Crown as his everyday attire, abolishing the six-crown system of the previous dynasty, and only wore "black robe and crimson skirt," with both the upper and lower garments being black.

In addition, the Qin Dynasty paid great attention to the Five Elements theory, valuing water and metal, and therefore revered the color black.

Chen Daoming prepared for this scene for a long time in order to perform it well.

Shen Qing adopted many of his suggestions.

For example, in the Three-Body Problem game, Qin Shi Huang should be from Shaanxi, so the First Emperor should speak fluent Shaanxi dialect.

Shen Qing agreed to this.

They also pay great attention to appearance.

Historical records state that "When the First Emperor was young, he was studious, skilled in writing, and eight feet six inches tall, with a dragon-like countenance between his eyebrows."

If calculated according to this proportion, Qin Shi Huang would be an extremely tall and burly man.

Historical records also state that "there was a dragon's face between his eyebrows," meaning that the First Emperor was handsome and had the bearing of an emperor.

The appearance of the First Emperor is also mentioned in the Records of the Grand Historian.

"The King of Qin was a man with long eyes, a large mouth, and a prominent nose."

In layman's terms, Qin Shi Huang had long, narrow eyes, a slightly large mouth, and a high nose bridge.

Later, actor Fu Dalong's interpretation was quite outstanding. Coupled with his superb acting skills, he almost brought the King of Qin to life.

According to historical records, the makeup team consulted a large number of historical facts and even drew inspiration from the Terracotta Army of Qin.

The makeup team put in a lot of effort from beginning to end.

Finally, a majestic and imposing image of Qin Shi Huang was successfully created.

When the actor stands in the main hall of Hengdian, he spreads out his arms.

Under Shen Qing's cinematic language, there really is an imperial aura.

Especially when the powerful lines are recited, those who lack the skill might step forward to worship.

The production team of "The Three-Body Problem" film strives to create the most outstanding portrayal of Qin Shi Huang in the history of Chinese cinema!

Shen Qing firmly believes that actor Chen Daoming can do it! In addition to the First Emperor, the two great scientists who play von Neumann and Newton are also quite remarkable.

These two actors are from the UK and have given outstanding performances in many excellent British dramas.

This includes "Yes, President," one of the highest-rated British TV series in film history.

Both actors have important roles in the film, and now they have traveled across the ocean to China to participate in the great film "The Three-Body Problem".

When the two British actors saw actor Zheng Jianming change into his costume, his appearance was so lifelike that he looked just like a historical emperor.

"The costume design is outstanding."

"It's so realistic, it makes you want to go up and bow down."

After passing the initial visual test, the film's literary consultant was none other than Professor Li, Shen Qing's mentor.

When he saw the designs from the costume and makeup teams, he was full of praise. This was the image of the First Emperor in his mind.

This scene features a large cast of actors, all of whom are well-prepared.

In this scene, Chen Daoming is undoubtedly the most dazzling. Even Wang Miao, the protagonist of the film, is overshadowed by the aura of the First Emperor.

The shots were extremely complex, involving as many as thirteen photographers.

They also employed a variety of filming techniques to capture the entire scene of more than 10,000 people on camera.

The production team put in a lot of effort for this live-action shoot.

Filming finally began, and even the usually composed Shen Qing became excited.

With a shout of "Action!", the most important scene begins immediately!
As the camera slowly pans across the room, the magnificent scenery of the Qin Palace unfolds. This is a reconstruction from later generations; it's impossible to imagine how truly majestic the Epang Palace was in history.

The camera slowly pans forward, revealing an enormous hall.

The inner chamber was pitch black, making it almost impossible to breathe.

Switch to another camera position.

"rise!"

At this moment, the camera lens is recording the scene inside the main hall of the Qin Emperor's Palace.

The guards stood ramrod straight.

"bye!"

Speaking with a Shaanxi accent, Qin Shi Huang received von Neumann, Newton, and Wang Miao, who had come from afar.

"You asked me to assemble an army of 30 million and use the three laws and calculus to predict the sun's movement. At the very least, you should demonstrate to me how this computer works."

This is a story with a strong sense of magical realism.

The dragon's might shook the heavens.

Qin Shi Huang's voice was deep and powerful, like thunder from the heavens, shaking the hearts of every minister.

He pointed his finger at the three people in the prince's court.

As the first emperor in Chinese history to unify the six kingdoms, he sat on the dragon throne, wearing a magnificent dragon robe, his hair tied with a golden crown, and his brows revealed an irresistible majesty.

"This is the majesty of the First Emperor!"

Filming officially began for the large-scale scene with the computer-generated imagery, and Shen Qing also held a camera, capturing close-up shots of Qin Shi Huang.

After the word "action" is used, a surreal and magical scene unfolds.

Two scientists from the West are explaining the principles of computer operation to Qin Shi Huang.

With enough people, it is possible to predict when the next Eternal Era will arrive.

This is a very long shot, and the entire film will be presented in the form of a stage play.

It feels a bit like when Lars von Trier was filming "Dogville".

Behind this performance lies the hard work of each team.

More than 10,000 soldiers, dressed in imposing Qin army armor, shouted in unison.

For the background music in this scene, Shen Qing once again invited the master of traditional Chinese music, Zhao Ping.

When showcasing the Qin Palace, Qin Opera will be inserted to create an even grander atmosphere.

The creation of the great work "The Three-Body Problem" was due to the combination of favorable timing, location, and popular support.

Shen Qing has the most efficient directing team in all of China, and is assisted by producer Chen Ming.

However, this grand production still took a month to complete.

This is the first time such a situation has occurred in Shen Qing's directing career.

Filming progress was greatly hampered.

Verbally, Shen Qing has always said that he could not have predicted the Three-Body Problem project.

But in reality, his idea was to finish filming all the plots of the Three-Body Problem script by the winter of the following year.

We can take advantage of the snowy scenery in Heihe, Northeast China, to complete the final scene.

Judging from the current progress, the production cycle of "The Three-Body Problem: Earth's Past" will be much slower.

In mid-April, filming was completed for the epic scene depicting the humanoid computer from "The Three-Body Problem"! (End of Chapter)
