What is there to do in Hengdian? This guide looks for the hidden ways to play in Hengdian

The thing is like this. Not long ago, Caicai asked who wanted to go to Hengdian to be an extra. Daying and I immediately raised our hands, thinking that we could meet celebrities and receive lunches, so we would be fools not to go. Before I went there, I realized that the so-called "group performance" was just an experience project in Hengdian (the specific format will be mentioned later) and it was not a real filming experience on the set. This...is quite different from our expectations.

But they all decided to go, so they went to play with Daying for a few days. The result is delicious~! Since Hengdian's big and small accounts have written very detailed guides for visiting scenic spots and eating, our main task this time has been to find Hengdian's hidden ways of playing and experience various projects.

So the two of us traveled to different scenic spots every day, dressing up and playing various roles. In the morning, we might have filmed a short play in Qing Dynasty costumes, and in the afternoon, we traveled to the Republic of China and played an immersive script killing game.

 

Even though I walked 15,000 a day, by the third day I had blisters on the soles of my feet (remember to wear sneakers when going to Hengdian!) , but we were both happy every day, maybe It’s really fun to try different life experiences in one go~!

I also saw real extras while playing, and it was quite different from what I imagined. According to the staff, sometimes the extras may encounter rain scenes that start at three in the morning, and they need to be on site at one or two in the morning. Most people will only feel tired and miserable if they come to experience it. After hearing these words, I immediately gave up my desire to be an extra.

 

Before experiencing the various ways to play in Hengdian, I will first summarize Hengdian’s six popular scenic spots (If you want to see the detailed guide, please click here~) .

 

Ming and Qing palaces

The Forbidden City has been restored 1:1. Almost all the familiar Qing Palace dramas were filmed here, such as "The Palace", "The Legend of Zhen Huan", "Yanxi Palace Story " and so on.

Along the River During Qingming Festival

Along the River During the Qingming Festival is a scenic spot created based on the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" by the Song Dynasty painter Zhang Zeduan. It restores the street life of ordinary people in the Song Dynasty.

The crew gathers here , and as long as you have the patience, you can watch a live performance with real actors, the kind of unedited original sound version.

 

Qin Palace

This is a scenic spot specially built for Chen Kaige's "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin".

 

Subsequently, many classic costume dramas were filmed in this scenic spot, "Chen Qing Ling", "Mi Yue Zhuan" and "Nirvana in Fire" were all filmed here. There is also a 5D movie "Empire" in the scenic area that can compete with Disney's Beyond the Horizon.

 

Guangzhou Street·Hong Kong Street

Don’t be fooled by the name, these are not two streets, but a restoration of Guangzhou city in the mid-19th century and Hong Kong city in the early 20th century.

I personally recommend coming at night. When the neon signs light up, the atmosphere of the entire scenic spot is full.

Old Ming Dynasty New Garden

An incredibly large scenic spot with as many as 45 scenic spots in it. Here, the Old Summer Palace before the fire is restored and reproduced, with a proportion of 84% of the original, which is roughly the same.

Dream Valley

Dream Valley is considered an above-passing amusement park, and there is no shortage of facilities that a general amusement park should have. The highlights are the two performances Water World and "Fantasy Tai Chi" and "Heavy Rain and Flash Flood" .

 

Generally I think it is enough to arrange 2 or 3 scenic spots in a day . For the scenic spots in the evening, you can choose Guangzhou Street·Hong Kong Street or Dream Valley (other scenic spots close at 5:30), during the day, Qingming River Scene and Qin Palace are right next door, so you can check in together.

Let’s relax~Let’s have fun in Hengdian

Hengdian hidden gameplay

 

In fact, before I came to Hengdian to experience it, I was an embarrassing cancer patient, still in the late stage. I frowned at the thought of having to put on costumes and act awkwardly. But after playing in Hengdian for a few days, my cancer was completely cured. Once I let go, I had a lot of fun!

I have introduced the projects that Daying and I have a better experience with directly in order of personal preference, you can refer to them below.

 

Go to the movie

The scenic spot turns into a film set, and a wave of memories comes

💰 Free

🏰 Experience scenic spots: Guangzhou Street·Hong Kong Street

Usually at seven o'clock in the evening (it will be delayed to 7:30 in the summer) , there is a director holding a loudspeaker in the square of Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street to call for extra performers (this is the previous article The mentioned extras) , let everyone "walk into the movie" with him.

The entire Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street turned into a large film set at that moment. , and you and I become the characters in the play.

 

At the very beginning, the big screen will introduce 's first movie "The Opium War" shot in Hengdian. It is precisely because of this historical blockbuster that the story of Hengdian Studios begins.

As soon as the curtain closed, follow the director and continue walking inside. The song "Little friend, why are you acting like a fool~" suddenly floated to my ears. When I got closer, I saw Yiping from "Love in the Rain" singing affectionately on the stage. It instantly took me back to my dreams. The summer vacation controlled by Aunt Qiongyao.

 

In addition, you can also see the reappearance of classic scenes from "Golden Family", "The Pretender", "Latent" and "Ip Man" .

 

There is also a scene in the "Lush" section Exciting gunfight Even though a passerby who had seen it once had given me a high-energy warning, I was still shocked when I saw it with my own eyes.

 

When all the classic film and television dramas are reenacted, follow the flow of people and walk around Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street surrounded by neon lights. The whole process is like visiting a summer temple fair, and your mood becomes light and airy. of.

Of course, this isn't over yet! There will also be an award ceremony for the best actor and actress in the square, and the two with the best acting skills will be selected from the group of actors on site. Although I don't know what the director's criteria are for judging when there are so many people, but why bother to delve into it? Just Tu Yile.

Afterwards, several classic movies will be displayed on the stage combined with dance. When I heard "If I had a boat ticket, would you come with me?" , and then looked at the stage, my mind began to replay Su Lizhen holding a bowl of wontons with Chow Mo-wan. The scene of passing by on the stairs.

The finale of these movies is "The Opium War", and the format is no longer a dance, but a restoration of the filming process of the opium eradication scene in Humen in "The Opium War". When the director said "Cut" for the last time, I was in a daze, not knowing whether I was a spectator or a person in the drama.

When I thought everything was over, suddenly there was a "bang" in the sky, and when I turned around, I found that fireworks were being set off. Although the fireworks lasted only a short time, the sense of surprise like opening a gift made me happy.

On the way back, I met my grandma who was still immersed in the atmosphere and dancing. Her intoxicating and cute dance made me want to twist with her and continue the "movie".

 

The story of promotion in the harem

Real test of how many episodes can one survive in a harem drama?

💰 98 yuan/person

🏰 Experience scenic spots: Ming and Qing Palaces

I would say that it is the king of value for money among the fee items in Ming and Qing palaces.

 

Not only can you change clothes, but you can also directly take on the role of a character and "promote", and as long as your companion's photography skills are online, you can also wear these clothes and leave photos in various scenes of "Harem Promotion", photography + clothing These two costs are saved. Renting a set of clothes in Hengdian and getting a hairstyle will cost at least 100+, which is really a bit expensive.

 

"Promotion in the Harem" is simply to choose a character (Zhen Huan, An Lingrong, Wei Yingluo, Fu Heng, etc.) , and then advance through various levels in different scenes. The first step in the game is naturally to select a character card. Once you decide on your role, all the staff will be on the spot immediately and even before the makeup time before entering the stage, everyone will only call you by your character name.

 

Daying and I chose Wei Yingluo and Fu Heng respectively. The young lady who helped us persuade the Taoist priest said "Miss Yingluo" to the left and "Master Fu Heng" to the right. The next second I heard this, I wanted to ask "Master Fu Heng" why he married Er Qing.

 

After you change your clothes, your "yin and yang" father-in-law will teach you the rules of the palace. I had just put on the flower pot bottom for a while, and my father-in-law asked me to lift my left foot first, then lift my knee and take a small step. The heel of each step should not exceed the other's front foot. After stumbling all the way, I clearly realized that I really had nothing to do with the smart Wei Yingluo. It was more like Little Yanzi accidentally entered the scene of Uncle Benshan's "Selling Kidnappings" sketch.

"Master Fu Heng" is much smarter than me. Basically, after learning it twice, he will be good at it.

After learning their own rules, different characters have different tasks in the following levels.

 

Some tasks are quite mild, such as doing embroidery, playing football, etc., but some are slightly challenging. For example, I experienced cleaning the "toilet" in Xinzheku and also I had to figure out why I made the emperor angry while I was playing. I had forgotten the specific plot a long time ago. How could I know why? Fortunately, the accompanying father-in-law would "reprimand" me in a dramatic way, and at the same time guide me to tell the correct answer. Answer.

 

It takes about forty or fifty minutes to play the entire game. Whether you are alone or in a group, you can experience it. The girl who helped us with makeup and hair repeatedly emphasized "Even if you come alone, we will do it." A group of people are serious about playing with you." I was touched by this service attitude.

By the way, children can also participate. The character selection is a bit limited, only Xiao Yanzi and Fifth Brother can choose. But I feel that children sometimes feel more involved and more relaxed than adults. After all, who hasn’t fantasized about which princess or elder brother he is when he was a child? While we were playing, Daying played a small game and the little boy next to her became very competitive. He immediately raised his hand and wanted to compete with Daying.

 

Green screen experience hall

The “one dollar” special effects are fun enough

💰 Free

🏰 Experience scenic spots: Ming and Qing Palaces

Do you want to know how the special effects of Wumao are made? Do you want to travel around the mountains and rivers while sitting indoors? Friends, if you are passing by, don’t miss the free green screen experience!

Although this is a free trial project, the costumes and headwear are not ambiguous (makeup is not required) , and the entire project is indoors, so you can say goodbye to the sun!

 

After changing the costumes, you can go directly into the green screen area to experience the legendary 50-cent special effects. At first glance, the entire scene is actually just a green semi-arc space + a green square.

But when you are in it, the big screen behind you will switch between various scenes, whether it is going up to the sky (flying on an eagle to the Forbidden City) or down to the ground (swimming in the sea) . It’s a matter of a word from the director. In fact, I think this special effect is a lot better compared to the outrageous special effects in some movies and TV series. It's worth at least one dollar.

At this time, you only need to let go of your reserve, come up with your own plot, boldly perform without physical objects , and a "hugely invested" special effects short film will be formed.

 

After it was "finished", I couldn't help but start to imagine how funny the scenes would be when those real actors were filming fantasy and fairy tale dramas. Without a deep sense of belief, it really wouldn't work.

 

Law of the Jungle

This is immersive script killing!

💰 688 yuan/person

🏰 Experience scenic spots: Guangzhou Street·Hong Kong Street

Two days ago, Dragonfly wrote a script about a cruise ship in Chongqing, which created a wave of script fans among fans. Hengdian, which has its own set advantages, will naturally not lose . There are immersive scripts in Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street.

 

Here is a brief introduction to what script killing is. Script Killing is actually a game in which players play the roles in their respective scripts, reason around the cases in the script, restore character relationships, search for evidence, analyze the timeline, and finally find the murderer.

In addition to the advantages of the setting in the script killing in Hengdian, the acting skills of NPC (game staff) are also better than the usual script killing. After changing into the costumes of the Republic of China, walking through the streets of Guangzhou· In the streets of Hong Kong, when I felt the joy, anger, sorrow and joy with the NPC, I couldn't help but get into the drama even though I wasn't too interested in scripts at first.

 

The background of the story of this script is Shanghai in the early 1940s. The current situation was turbulent. The local parties, military commanders, invading forces, and puppet governments all had different ideas, and everyone was fighting with each other.

 

During the 210 minutes of script killing, the entire Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street seemed to have truly become the city I was living in, and that plot seemed to have become another period of my life that I had traveled through.

 

Acting opposite "stars"

Be the protagonist comfortably for a time

💰 599 yuan/person

🏰 Experience scenic spots: Ming and Qing Palaces, Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street

The fact that you can spend 599 yuan to shoot opposite a "star" sounds pretty good~ but in fact, if you translate this into human language, it means to shoot your clips separately and then splice them together with the original drama. The final film will look like you are with the star. Filmed a rival scene. Think about it, after all, the money in Hengdian is only enough to hire an extra.

Although there are no real stars to act with you, The staff on site will treat you as the real protagonist It may take more than an hour to complete the one-stop service of choosing clothes, putting on makeup and doing hair.

After everything is ready, the director will take you to the corresponding original scene to shoot, guide the actions on the spot, and teach you your lines.

If you are as talented in acting as Daying, the whole filming experience may be very fast, and you can finish it in just a few takes.

You can refer to the video below for the finished film effect:

The process is too fast, isn’t it satisfying? Then you can team up with two or three people to shoot a short play with a real script. It feels like you and your friends are the actors in the play. It is quite memorable to complete a short play.

 

Entry-level travel photography

Freeze the moment of time travel

💰 599 yuan/person

🏰 Experience scenic spots: Ming and Qing Palaces, Guangzhou Street·Hong Kong Street, Qingming Riverside Scenery

For me, in addition to eating when going out, whether the place is easy to take photos is also one of the important indicators of the source of happiness during travel. If you don’t take pictures when you come to Hengdian, the fun will be cut in half in an instant. Such a suitable place for taking pictures, I won’t allow you not to freeze your own silhouette!

 

If you want to take beautiful photos in Hengdian, there is a lazy way, just leave the professional things to professionals. Several popular scenic spots have photo studios.

There are a lot of clothes to choose from that match the scenic scene, and the makeup artist will also help you put on a full set of makeup.

 

Even though I am a shy person who usually just smiles when I see the camera, my limbs are no longer so stiff under the photographer’s guidance.

 

I personally suggest that it is best to go there without makeup in the morning . After taking photos, your makeup must be much more refined than usual. Only then can you go to play elsewhere to make the most of your makeup.

As for the choice of shooting spots, I would recommend Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street.

Because I think the style of Hanfu or Qing palace clothing is quite homogeneous. Compared with the various styles of clothing in Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street, the quality will be slightly inferior.

After the shooting is completed, is usually given 3 refined photos and 3 original photos . In the current market where even an ID photo costs 100+ yuan, the price of 599 yuan is still acceptable.

I have seen other people describe Hengdian before, saying it is a magical place, but I prefer to use the word dream.

During the few days I spent in Hengdian, I often had the illusion that I was in another time and space. It created a dream world, and every tourist was invited to dream.

 

You who grabbed the room coupon a few days ago, why not take some time to go to Hengdian and dream together~
