Two days later, Tang Qiang arrived with more than 200 international actors. As one of the largest film and television companies in China, Kyoto Film and Television has many cooperative relationships not only domestically but also internationally. Tang Qiang only made a brief appearance before completing the task assigned by Fang Yang.

After half a month of filming, most of the scenes that did not involve international actors have been filmed. The arrival of the international actors is a perfect transition to the next stage of filming.

After the international actors arrived, Fang Yang spent two days explaining the script and camera angles to everyone. He also distributed storyboards to some of the main and supporting actors so that everyone could get a feel for it and get used to it. After all, no one can jump right in and act like a corpse. They're not playing dead bodies, just lying there, even though some of them were there to play dead bodies.

In the section at the fork in the road, there weren't many scenes featuring international actors. Most of the time, we only saw shells and not people. After Fang Yang had already blown up five or six cars, the rest of the scenes mainly consisted of adding some close-up shots of their faces. These were relatively simple and were completed in just a few days.

The completion of the scene at the crossroads does not mean that we should move to a new location now. Most of the exterior shots still need to be filmed around this area. Otherwise, Xiao Zhengguang's men would not have chosen to plant vegetables here. After all, most of the exterior shots in Africa will be filmed in this area, and the simple prop houses that Xiao Zhengguang is building are also inseparable from this unique geographical environment.

By the time the entire crew returned to Cedars, it was already the end of June. Several months later, Yang Huajin contacted Fang Yang again, only to find it felt like a lifetime had passed. The first phase of construction of Yuewen Entertainment Media's headquarters had been completed and the decoration was finished. They were just waiting to clean up before moving into the new office building. However, Fang Yang, who was in charge, had disappeared and could not be reached by phone!

Fortunately, Xiao Zhengguang still frequently returned to Siddas. Through occasional contact, he learned that the filming was going smoothly. Apart from an attack by a pack of more than twenty wolves, there were no other problems. For a film crew with more than a hundred mercenaries fully armed and protected, the appearance of a pack of more than twenty wolves was at most just something to talk about over tea, and it didn't cause any trouble.

Looking at the call from Yang Huajin, Fang Yang couldn't help but sigh. It had been so long since he had received a call. It felt like his phone had become a decoration. It seemed like he had forgotten to charge it for half a month. Although his life was monotonous, when he was busy, the biggest concept was just the rising and setting of the sun and moon!

"Hey, Uncle Yang, what made you think of calling me?"

Yang Huajin, sitting opposite him, felt a pang of heartache. "Xiao Yang, you seem to have completely lost track of time when you're filming a movie?"

"Oh, I've been quite busy lately and haven't had time to think about anything else. As you know, this area is all desert, more than 100 kilometers away from the city. There's no cell phone signal there, and the weather is too hot. Apart from taking advantage of the cooler mornings and evenings to shoot a few more scenes, we can't even stand going out at other times. We can only shoot scenes or discuss the script indoors. After this trip, everyone has lost more than ten pounds."

"Hey, filming is important, but you also need to take care of your health. If it weren't for the fact that I could still contact Xiao Zhengguang by chance, I would have put a missing person notice on my watchlist. You know, even if you're just making a movie, you can't just disappear like that. With so many things going on at the company, we can't find anyone to give us advice."

Yang Huajin shook his head and sighed. He hadn't expected the conditions there to be so harsh. It was like going back to the Stone Age. He couldn't even contact anyone. Xiao Zhengguang said that they had been growing vegetables there for more than two months. Just as they were harvesting the first season's produce, the crew returned to the city. Fortunately, they didn't waste any of it. They organized a hearty vegetable feast for the whole crew, which made many people feel like they had returned to modern society. Even the person who disliked side dishes the most ate until tears streamed down his face that night, and he kept saying how delicious it was.

"Oh, it's nothing. I'm back in the city now. Just call me if you need anything. There's only one intense scene left here, which will take about 20 to 30 days. After that, we'll go back to the South China Sea for the final filming, and we should be back at the company by mid-August."

Fang Yang calculated the timeline and figured there shouldn't be any problems. He figured that if all the special effects company staff worked on the special effects for the movie, there shouldn't be any issues. They could edit and work on the special effects simultaneously, and submit the application for approval by the end of September. Although the timeframe was a bit tight, as long as the publicity was up to par, the movie was sure to be a hit.

"I was hoping you could make it back to preside over the company's relocation ceremony. All the office furniture is being prepared to be moved in these past few days, and it would be best if you could come back."

Yang Huajin was helpless. The two were completely on different wavelengths. Fang Yang was currently preoccupied with making movies and probably had no idea about the company's relocation. He was really taking his job as a boss too lightly.

"Oh, that's a matter. You can arrange it as you see fit. I'm in a hurry to catch up on the progress here. You can discuss things with each other if needed."

Fang Yang hung up the phone and resumed his inspection of the abandoned factory. After much negotiation, the Rwandan government dispatched 1,000 National Guard troops to assist Fang Yang in filming the abandoned factory segment. Although Fang Yang didn't have to worry about food and lodging, the cost was anything but cheap. Just as Xiao Kui had said, as long as the money was in place, the government, which needed to invest heavily in economic development, would never refuse such an opportunity.

The daily expenses for the food, drink, and other necessities of over 1,500 people were so high that Xiao Zhengguang's eyes were twitching every day. The last batch of used cars that Xiao Kui had arranged had filled both sides of the street. Originally, the plan was for more than 20 cars, but because the street was too empty, more than 50 cars were finally arranged to meet the needs.

Once everything was in place, the scene was grand enough. Fang Yang positioned the National Guard members at various intersections, and the military off-road vehicles prepared by Xiao Kui were also in position. To achieve the best effect, Fang Yang not only made use of the aerial rails, but also put all the remaining drones to use, all in order to capture the best visual effect.

With too many people on site, Fang Yang dared not use the grenade launcher again. To make the effect more realistic, Fang Yang sought out the experienced Xiao Kui.

"Commander Xiao, is there any way to destroy the vehicle with explosives without damaging the vehicles following or behind?"

Without hesitation, Xiao Kui replied, "That's easy. The direction of the bomb's explosion will be different depending on the point of impact. This can be controlled. Although it will have some impact on the vehicles in front and behind, it is not the main point of impact. Moreover, these are military off-road vehicles, and their chassis are heavier than those of civilian vehicles. As long as the speed is not too high, they are not so easy to get injured."

Since Xiao Kui said so, Fang Yang used the real bomb without hesitation. Just as Xiao Kui said, most of the vehicles that were blown up fell to their predetermined locations. Even though Fang Yang was sitting behind the monitor, he was still on the edge of his seat, afraid that something might go wrong.
