Chapter 184: Zhang Hong's Gonghuo has always been okay
The film is ready to start.
The first thing to shoot is naturally the first literary drama part.
The shooting here is different from Zhang Hong.
Zhang Hong shoots completely according to the progress of the plot, and he will shoot whatever the plot goes.
But here is to finish the filming of the drama first, and the same scene is filmed at the same time in the drama.
When that's all done, we go out on location, and the location is all over, and finally shoot all the special effects in the green screen studio.
It's better to say that this is the normal shooting process, both at home and abroad.
Zhang Hong is the strange one who doesn't follow the routine.
He patiently followed the filming together for two days, and always felt that nothing was going well anywhere!
Finally, that night, he found Donald.
"Don, I don't feel right. ”
Zhang Hong took a sip of his beer and began to complain.
Here he regained a sense of ease.
It would be even better if it wasn't one of those small bars, but a domestic barbecue stand.
Donald also took a sip of Budweiser, then let out a long sigh of relief and hiccup, before asking, "What's wrong, Zhang?
Zhang Hong pursed his lips and put down his mug, "If you just want to make a popcorn movie that is not very good, then it is not a big problem to shoot like this." ”
Is popcorn bad?
At least it's delicious before it cools.
In fact, he also understands what Zhang Hong means, but what Columbia Pictures wants is a popcorn movie.
It's not that they don't pursue it, it's that they don't have the qualifications to pursue anything now.
It's like editing a station.
Different editing styles are different, and some editors don't like to interfere with the author's writing, so his author may hit the street into the sewer, or he may soar into the sky.
But some editors seek stability, so they prefer the kind of stable authors.
It won't hit the streets, but it doesn't have much chance of becoming a hit.
Columbia Pictures is now seeking stability, and they are not qualified to pursue the so-called top hits.
As long as the film pays for itself, that's the biggest win for them.
At the very least, we can explain to the shareholders and prove that Columbia Pictures can still make movies without losing money.
But that's not what Zhang Hong wants.
He wants to make money!
Make good money!
What money can you make from a regular popcorn movie?
Maybe in China, with the name of Hollywood popcorn and his fame Zhang Hong, he can cheat a lot of money.
But that's not what he wants, he's going to earn money while standing!
And in Hollywood, this kind of film ...... Not shocking enough.
The special effects must be top-notch, and the box office will not be bad, but doesn't it seem that he Zhang Hong has also been brainwashed by Hollywood's industrial assembly line?
Well, actually, he can't handle Hollywood.
Donald took a sip of the beer that had no foam, and wondered, "Zhang, do you want to change the script?"
If Zhang Hong said so, he would definitely veto it.
Columbia Pictures can't afford to toss it now.
Zhang Hong shook his head, "No, it's just a small problem, such as the second part, and the ending." ”
What an international joke!
He Zhang Hong can't wait for Hollywood to be turned into ashes by the "controversy from heaven" tomorrow, let him lick Hollywood?
No, you can't!
But if he can make a small change to the script to make the ugly country's idle birds hurt the red neck and Blackman to enhance the sense of substitution, then he doesn't think it matters.
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to make more money?
And the money earned by European and American ghost animals can still get a good reputation, why not?
Donald was noncommittal, "How do you change that?" and we invested so much in our first film, and if it didn't work out, I wouldn't have been able to get an extra five cents from the boardroom." ”
Zhang Hong thought for a moment and said, "It's very simple, just add a little detail in the middle." ”
Then he began to detail his plans.
For example, in the first part, it was still filmed as it was, the protagonist's side was righteous, and then they burned the signal tower all the way, beat people and robbed supermarkets by the way, and then injected vaccines on themselves to save the world and so on.
The first part has not changed much.
The second plot connects with the first, the mastermind behind the scenes (the owner of a tech biopharmaceutical company, not named Gates anyway) controls the world and then rules the world by adding nanochips to the vaccine.
Then the protagonist and the heroine use the initial vaccine, which is the only two vaccines without nanochips.
So the official sent people to find them, saying that the initial vaccine in their bodies was not perfect, and there would be problems in the end.
At the same time, the man behind the scenes also sent people to find them.
The father and daughter dodged (counter-killing) while advancing towards the other company.
In the end, after a lot of hardship, he sent his daughter there to be vaccinated, and before the vaccine was injected, the protagonist accidentally learned the truth, and it turned out that COC wanted to develop a new generation of vaccines through the antibodies produced in her body to fight the nano vaccine of the boss of the technology company to save the world.
But the price is that the daughter will die.
So the old father, who fell into a state of rage, killed the COC alone and rescued his daughter.
As for the world?
Whatever.
However, after solving the official side, the tech company still sent people to hunt them down.
The old father was accidentally knocked down with a golf club, and his daughter was taken away in front of him.
The old father who woke up went berserk again, and another person killed the technology company and rescued his daughter.
Even in the end, he saw that the boss was going to kill him.
Then the boss told the truth.
In fact, there is no chip vaccine at all, all vaccines are indeed normal vaccines, and he is not the mastermind behind the scenes, he really wants to save the world and save mankind.
The reason why they brought him with his daughter is because the vaccine in their bodies is not perfect, and with the initial vaccine, they will indeed not be infected with the virus again, but at the same time, they will also become the source of transmission of the virus.
Yes, there is no radio wave virus at all.
It was a virus that was accidentally created by nature.
But in order to cover up its ignorance and incompetence, the ugly government threw the blame on the signal tower.
The so-called chips in the vaccine are also actions made by the government in order to throw off the pot or prevent the truth from appearing, resulting in a decline in support ratings.
The protagonist will be skeptical.
The tech boss laughed, "Believe it or not, soon they'll announce that black people are the source of the virus, because somebody will find out one day that the airwaves can't spread the virus at all." ”
The protagonist doesn't believe it, but the next moment, the TV station starts broadcasting the news.
The great Ugly Commander-in-Chief began to speak live across the country on the aircraft carrier.
He said......
"The COC study shows that all non-white people of color are the real source of the virus. ”
And so, the riot began.
Blacks kill whites, whites kill blacks, and then there are other races.
Looking at the chaos on the street outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the protagonist falls silent.
At this time, the boss of the tech company tidied up his suit and planned to leave.
Before leaving, he tells the protagonist the truth.
In fact, no one cares what the source of the virus is, at least no one cares about the high-level leaders of the ugly country.
They only care about their own rule.
This society is a fragmented society.
Is the problem of the ugly country really a racial problem and a problem of foolishness?
Neither, it's a class issue.
There are capitalists among whites, capitalists among blacks, and capitalists among yellows and Latinos.
But they will hide, they will hide themselves in the race to which they belong for their own benefit and to deflect hatred.
You say that a person is a capitalist and should be brought down.
He said you were racist.
It is obviously the result of a horizontal society, but they make people think that they are a vertical society.
That's what this society is.
The protagonist asks, "What about the virus?
"Who knows, maybe the Chinese country on the other side of the sea cares, and there will be a solution, but our great motherland certainly does not. ”
The boss smiled, "What you have to do now is to live, to live until the day the world is destroyed, or...... When the true savior appears. ”
In the end, the protagonist leaves with his daughter.
Looking at the people with numb and hateful faces who were burning with raging fires and smashing and looting, he had no nostalgia and turned away with his daughter.
This is the end of the script.
Donald was deeply shaken.
But he still has a concern: "Zhang, this script ...... It's the kind that can win an Oscar! I believe that! But the money is really ......."
"No, it's enough, just go my way. Zhang Hong said confidently, "Dismiss all the crew, just keep the post-production team and the surround LED screen group, and leave the rest to me, I will find my crew from China, and then ...... I'm sending you two Columbia Pictures movies that are box office hits and can win Oscars. ”
Donald frowned for a long time, and finally, he took a sip of the beer in his glass, which was no longer cold, gritted his teeth, and said, "FK!! I'm gambling on my career!"
Zhang Hong smiled slightly: "I won't let you down." ”
