Chapter 137: Two Movies
When he arrived in the United States, Qiao Feng spent a few days like a year.
Two crews, one heroine is Lin Qingxia and the other is Guan Zhilin.
Guan Zhilin starred in a big-budget movie that Qiao Feng had promised for a long time with an estimated investment of nearly 10 million US dollars.
Qiao Feng's soft sci-fi comedy films, which have been influential in the history of film, return to the future.
Back to the Future tells the story of Marty McFfrey, an ordinary high school student, who is attacked by terrorists while participating in the space-time machine experiments of his old friend, Dr. Emmett Brown. After the Doctor is killed by terrorists, Marty escapes from 1985 to 1955 in a time machine. Finding himself trapped here due to the lack of motivation of the time machine, and to make matters worse, Marty inadvertently intervenes in his parents' first meeting, putting himself in danger of disappearing at any time, and in desperation, Marty finds Dr. Brown 30 years ago, hoping to save the future with his help.
Qiao Feng originally wanted to put the place of occurrence in Hong Kong, so that all members could use Hong Kong actors, and the production cost would be reduced a lot, because there were actually few special effects shots in this film, and thirty-two special effects shots were almost the same for a science fiction film.
But later Qiao Feng gave up this idea, and the box office of this film in North America alone was more than 200 million US dollars, and the global box office exceeded 380 million US dollars.
If all Hong Kong actors are used, to be honest, Qiao Feng himself has no confidence in how much box office he can get overseas.The Chinese film market is only in Southeast Asia, which is an indisputable fact.
If you want to be a box office hit, you must not use all Hong Kong actors, white actors must be available, and they cannot be a minority.
The other is the need for the plot.,According to the plot, it's really not suitable to take place in Hong Kong.First of all, there are no terrorists in Hong Kong.,Even if you can replace it with the underworld.,But there is no nuclear research institute in Hong Kong.,There will be no plutonium theft.,This can't be changed.,And the loss of plutonium is a key to the plot.,It's also a key to the operation of the space-time machine.
It would be very unrealistic to change the plot to plutonium lost in the United States and then shipped to Hong Kong, the US security services are not vegetarians, and there will definitely be no way to ship it from the United States to Hong Kong in a short time.
After considering everything, Qiao Feng decided that the film should be made in the United States, as the second film of DreamWorks, a film and television production company established in the United States.
Director Qiao Feng once again chose Wang Fatzi Wang Jing, the hero and heroine and the girlfriend of the male protagonist, that is, the heroine of the second part, use her own people, and their families can use local Chinese, as for the key male No. 2 Doctor, this one is going to find an American actor, or is played by Christopher Lloyd, and the other villains also use Americans for everything.
In this way, it can be regarded as taking into account the markets of Southeast Asia and Europe and the United States.
The heroine, that is, the mother of the male protagonist, is played by Guan Zhilin, the actor Qiao Feng uses Liu Dehua, and his girlfriend is played by Li Saifeng, and then his timid and cowardly and stupid father Qiao Feng is handed over to Zhou Xingchi.
This is Qiao Fengding's cast of actors.
So when Qiao Feng and the crew converged, he also met with Guan Zhilin, and then he was sandwiched between Guan Zhilin and Lin Qingxia, two beauties.
Guan Zhilin already likes to play petty, and Qiao Feng also unabashedly praised Lin Qingxia, which made Guan Da Beauty quite hostile to Lin Da Beauty.
The hostile Lin Damei didn't know the relationship between Qiao Feng and Guan Zhilin, but Lin Damei's aura was there, and the aura of a top superstar was not comparable to Guan Zhilin.
Of course, this is nothing, the key Qiao Feng and Lin Qingxia have to go to her sister's house to meet her parents first, and then Guan Zhilin will follow.
Because Guan Zhilin's mother and younger brother immigrated to the United States a few years ago, her mother's place and Lin Qingxia's parents and sisters live in the same city, San Francisco, the United States, and San Francisco may be more widely known.
Qiao Feng sent Guan Zhilin to her mother first, and then followed Lin Qingxia to her mother's.
Although Lin Qingxia's parents are far away in the United States, they can still know some news about their daughter in Hong Kong, and Lin Qingxia sometimes talks about it when she calls, so Qiao Feng's arrival makes the Lin family look at him with scrutinizing eyes, especially Lin's mother Ma Lanying, she is very fond of Qin Xianglin, and she also vigorously promoted the engagement of her daughter and Qin Xianglin, but now the two are in contact with the marriage contract, a big factor is because of Qiao Feng.
If it weren't for Qiao Feng helping him find his eldest daughter in China, it is estimated that Ma Lanying would definitely not give him a good face this time, and he would not be able to eat behind closed doors.
After two days of getting used to staying with Lin Qingxia's family in an embarrassing face-to-face meeting, Qiao Feng was called to her house by Guan Zhilin again.
Guan Zhilin's mother Zhang Bingqian gave Qiao Feng a completely different treatment, Guan Zhilin directly introduced Qiao Feng as her boyfriend, Zhang Bingqian looked at Qiao Feng completely as a mother-in-law and looked at her son-in-law, the more she liked it.
After a few awkward days in San Francisco, Qiao Feng was finally relieved.
Guan Zhilin followed the crew to rent a good filming location at Universal Studios in Los Angeles to prepare to return to future filming, while Qiao Feng and Lin Qingxia flew to New York to meet the crew led by Chen Jiashang.
Chen Jiashang wore many hats when filming the fast pistol and fast gunman, not only played a perverted role, but also served as the special effects team leader and the assistant director.
And now he is promoted to director, which is also because he is going to shoot an action movie or a fashion action movie, Qiao Feng feels that Chen Jiashang has the ability to take on this role.
"What, going to Columbia to shoot on location?"
Chen Jiashang was a little dumbfounded: "Boss, Colombia is very chaotic, the government army and the rebels have been fighting, the new president came to power last year and just stabilized a little, but it is only a little more stable, there is no progress in seeking to support the negotiations, there are not a few scenes in Colombia, we can't take the risk there, just find a place in the United States to set up a location to shoot, no, we can also shoot when we go back to Hong Kong."
"It's okay, you also said that it is a little more stable there, and besides, we are filming in Bogotá, which is the capital of Colombia, and the security can still be guaranteed.
Qiao Feng comforted, this is really comforting, what Bogotá is the capital is safe, as the capital is dangerous, next year after eighty-five years, the rebels will attack the Bogotá Ministry of Justice, in the fierce battle and reoccupy the Ministry of Justice in the process of hundreds of deaths.
Even if the rebels can't get in, there are still drug lords, and next year the Colombian justice minister will be assassinated by a monopoly group that sells drugs in the north of the city of Bogotá, and then the war on drugs will break out, and Bogotá will often be attacked by drug cartels in the days that follow.
It's really dangerous, but Qiao Feng is still preparing to shoot in Bogota, after all, there are not many shots, two days is enough to get it done, he doesn't think that his life will be so bad that he will encounter any danger after only two days.
Another person who made the name of the movie to be made is Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and now he can be called Mr. and Mrs. Joe, Qiao Feng really likes to die in the movie Jenny and John
