Chapter 88 - Cross

Chapter 88 Cross-Dimension Camera

The so-called cross-dimension camera, on the surface, looked the same as a normal camera, but when you played the video that was taken by it on the computer, it would only show the animated sceneries, and it was the special 3D version. It was just like those Hollywood blockbusters, you know it was animated sceneries, but it looked very realistic.

Those invisible mini Villagers, as well as those small beasts that normally people would not be able to see, would be shown in the video that was taken by this camera. However, there was a problem. This cross-dimension camera could recognize its owner. So only Zhou Yu could use it. If other people used it, it would only work like a normal camera.

The cross-dimension camera, which was called “Truth”, was exchanged from the Dragon prince’s Treasure Bowl, but it was kept in the storage room, so it had not been used much. The main reason was that Zhou Yu did not know the purpose of this camera. After all, he could use glasses to see the ACG world, and there was no need to document it.

Show it to other people? Don’t be silly. That was equivalent to telling other people about his ability.

Unexpectedly, he was finally able to use it now.

Using Zhou Yu as a cameraman to shoot the sea scenes. The movie should be able to complete before the film festival. Although Zhou Yu’s filming skill was not very good, there was Ling Daoran’s special skill – “Legendary Editing”. As long as it was not a big problem, it could be corrected.

Anyway, no matter how bad it was, it was better than canceling the entire project.

Naturally, Xia Huan also understood this. So without any delay, he immediately agreed to hire Zhou Yu as a temporary cameraman.

‘Muhahahaha…’ Zhou Yu was a little excited that he was able to take part in shooting a movie in person.

The water park’s wave pool was temporarily requisitioned. Little Rat, and his friends were surprised to see brother Yu brought over many strange but exquisite wooden ships and a camera, which seemed like he wanted to film something. So they surrounded him curiously.

Brother Yu knew how to build ships. It was already known to the people in all villages around Luhua village. The huge aircraft carrier was now a scenic spot, and all the people, who had seen it, was very impressed by it. Although these ships were a little smaller, they were still very good as usual. Looking at the sails, cables, and rudders on the ships, it would be worth at least hundreds of Chinese Yuan.

Zhou Fu was very happy and thought that the little boss had finally figured out that he should build a special gift store to sell tho exquisite models. In fact, the financial situations of those children, who had returned to Luhua village for the summer vacation were not bad at all. Two or three hundred Yuan for one model ship, was still affordable to them. Moreover, every penny they spent on those model ships was worth it. After all, the quality of those ships was much better than those of cities.

“Boy Yu, very good, very good! These models are so beautiful! And it is very suitable to be sold in the water park. It will definitely sell well. I want to take your aircraft carrier as the display of the gift shop for a long time, but I was afraid you wouldn’t let me take it.”

Zhou Fu’s business vision was not bad. Using the aircraft carrier as a display, coupled with these exquisite models, making profit was just a matter of minutes. Boy Yu had such a wonderful skill. He could just make money from home. It made him admire him slightly. Unfortunately, he guessed wrong.

“What are you talking about, Uncle Fu? These are props for making a movie.”

Zhou Fu was dazed for a second as soon as he heard it. ‘What movie?’ The launching ceremony of the aircraft carrier they made before was quite interesting. Was he going to make a similar one again?

Little Rat and his friends already wanted to play with those models, mainly because the models were too beautiful, and each ship had its own characteristics, making people unable to move their eyes away from them. As soon as they heard that brother Yu wanted to make a movie, they immediately gathered around and signed up to be actors.

Unfortunately, he already had actors. But it was still okay to help. Ships’ movements needed to be controlled by people, and there was no need to worry about filming the real people in, since Ling Daoran could edit them out.

Perhaps this was the real purpose of the cross-dimension camera.

Hearing that it was not something to do with the park, Zhou Fu was slightly disappointed. But then he thought about it again. It was actually not bad either.

Boy Yu’s animated movies were really good. He had also seen some of them. If the movie was good, then he could use it as an advertising video. Besides, boy Yu always did things on the spur of the moment. Last time, he even built a beautiful Luhua Middle School.

In the end, he still sold it. So, those models would eventually end up in the gift shop. With this in mind, Zhou Fu was not that worried. Instead, he curiously watched the big boy making a movie with a bunch of little naughty kids.

This was probably the first film in human history that was co-produced by the ACG world and the real world. So it had an extraordinary historical significance. Of course, it was not those live-action movies that were adopted from animations. Those movies were terrible.

Unfortunately, except Zhou Yu, no one else from the real world would ever know about this.

Ling Daoran and Yang Kuai sat on top of Zhou Yu’s head and instructed the little actors on board to get ready. Zhou Yu needed to arrange the children to move the ships in their hands according to the script, and pay attention to the camera in his hands.

“Action!”

Ling Daoran ordered the filming to begin. Most of the scenes on the sea were battle scenes. It was very normal to see all kinds of cannon firing, and people shouting battle cries. The scenes were very intense. However, in the eyes of reality. It was calm and peaceful. It was truly a strange feeling.

Those kids were holding the ships, moving slowly under Zhou Yu’s commands and doing various actions, and occasionally colliding the ships with each other. Every ship had some small wooden barrels, which would inevitably roll back and forth or even fall out after collision, so children dared not hit each other too hard.

However, Zhou Yu’s instructions were: “Hit harder! It doesn’t matter if it will be broken!”

Zhou Fu’s eyelids were constantly twitching when he heard it. How many models would be damaged in this movie?

‘Ah… You spoiled kid! Such good stuff, and you want to destroy them?’

Unfortunately, Zhou Yu wouldn’t change his instructions, and those children still obediently followed it. In one day, at least three of them turned into debris, and more than a dozen of them were all damaged, so they couldn’t be sold as merchandise.

In other words, at least a few thousand Chinese Yuan had been wasted on the first day of the filming.

Zhou Fu was so distressed to see the ships were deliberately destroyed. Unable to bear seeing it any longer, he decided to go to the construction site.

However, the frantic destruction of ships continued, this time was even more ruthlessly. The ships were blown up!

In this scene, the protagonist’s pirate ship was besieged by the navy, and the last cannon fire shot through the hall of the ship, breaking the ship into two parts. And then the ship was sunk to the bottom of the sea. In order to show this scene, Zhou Yu decided to sink the ship with a big firecracker.

Placing it inside the ship and then connecting the fuse, this kind of firecracker was definitely big and powerful enough to destroy the ship in one go. But after all, settings this kind of firecracker was relatively dangerous, so all the children were asked to stay far away, and all the work was done by Zhou Yu alone.

Fixing the camera position, aiming it at the pirate ship, then he swam to the ship to connect the fuse. With a loud bang, the wooden ship was blown into pieces, and the children standing in the distance applauded in excitement.

“No good, no good. The explosive was too powerful. It blew the ship into pieces. The effect of the video was terrible! Retake this scene!”

Ling Daoran checked the video and demanded to retake the scene unsatisfactorily.

Oh well, changing to a smaller firecracker. And let’s do it again.
