Chapter 151: True Lies

"Mr. Liu, this storyline seems to be very similar to Hamlet!"

But Ye Jinsheng, a cultural person, heard a hint of the doorway.

"By the way, Brother Ye is really knowledgeable, that's right, this story is derived from Hamlet, and I came up with it casually!"

Now Liu Lang is not even more pale when he talks nonsense.

"Amazing, amazing! Mr. Liu still has such a deep study of drama, admire, admire!"

Lin Guodong on the side couldn't stop admiring, and Chengxian also nodded again and again, the two of them are Liu Lang's loyal disciples, and this opportunity is naturally a good pat on the back of the other.

"Jimmy, it seems that you haven't wasted your time in China in the past few years! You even studied Shakespeare, could it be that you want to write plays?"

Lucas asked.

"I don't have that spare time, I just write and draw by hand!"

"Then you can't just write this one work in the past three years, is there anything else?"

Liu Lang is a treasure trove, and he must be squeezed dry.

"Of course, I also wrote a script, everyone take a look!"

Liu Lang motioned to the assistant next to him, and the other party immediately took out a thick script and put it on the table.

Everyone hurriedly rushed up, only to see that the title of the script was "True Lies".

In a previous life, "True Lies" was a science fiction movie shot in '94, with a global box office of more than $500 million.

The film was also released in China, and it won a box office of 100 million yuan, setting a box office record after a Hollywood blockbuster entered the Chinese market.

"Forrest Gump" was introduced to China two months ago, and it won 150 million yuan at the box office in two months. The most attractive thing for Chinese fans is not the interesting plot, but the Chinese elements in it, especially Liu Lang's empowerment of the male protagonist, so that the other party can find the true meaning of life, in addition, there are a large number of scenes of the Forbidden City in the movie, and the photographer's lens shoots this ancient palace beautifully, especially the palace in the rising sun implies the soaring China, which arouses the pride of the Chinese people, so it set off a movie-watching boom in China, and finally won a box office of 150 million yuan, more than 20 million US dollars, which is not a lot.

The special effects of the movie "True Lies" have been a huge success in special effects, but the plot is also brilliant, especially the humorous dialogues are impressive.

Liu Lang introduced the plot of this movie to everyone, and also drew sketches in some special effects.

The reason why only sketches are drawn is because this is a purely commercial film, there is no profound connotation, as long as the content in the script is presented, it must not be bad, the sketch is just to highlight at some climactic moments, and the other is to determine the image of the protagonist.

"Jimmy, your protagonist is very familiar, it seems......... It's a lot like the Swarzenegger guy in "The Terminator"!"

Lucas pointed to the hero.

"George, you're right again, the hero of this movie is none other than Schwarzenegger!"

Liu Lang nodded.

Schwarzenegger's deepest impression is the figure, there is no excess fat on the body, muscles are like metal, he has starred in James Cameron's "Terminator 1" and "Terminator 2" in recent years, and he is also a little famous in Hollywood, but he is far from Tom Hanks, and now he is the hottest candidate for the next Oscar.

In the previous life, "True Lies" was played by Schwarzenegger, and a tall and powerful agent was certainly the most suitable.

Lucas and James Cameron are good friends, the relationship between the two may be better than Lucas and Spielberg, the special effects of "Terminator 1" were made by Lucas's Industrial Light & Magic, but that was still 84 years, the technology of Industrial Light & Magic is far from what it is now, and later Cameron's "Abyss" and "Terminator 2" are also produced by Industrial Light & Magic, both are science fiction movies, and the pursuit of the future and the unknown makes the two like-minded.

"Jimmy, Schwarzenegger is an actor who has no acting skills, and his face is stiff, not good!"

Lucas was not very optimistic about Schwarzenegger and somewhat despised the other party's acting skills.

But he forgot that he was not much better, where did the actors in Star Wars have acting skills? It all depends on special effects and the construction of the future world, but after he filmed "Forrest Gump", he felt that he had suddenly become more upscale, and he would shoot more movies like this in the future, so that it would be more noble.

"George, this movie is a purely commercial film, it has nothing to do with acting, the selling point of the movie is the special effects and tense plot and dialogue, after all, a movie script like "Forrest Gump" is not easy to get!"

"Can you stump Jimmy? I want to make another film of the same type, and if I can win two Oscars for Best Director, I'll be in the Hall of Fame." ”

Lucas's ambitions have swelled, and he has to win two best director statuettes, which is really "insatiable".

In fact, this is all Liu Lang's "habit", the role of Lucas in this movie is very small, if the whole movie is 100 points, he is worth 20 points or less, Liu Lang not only wrote the script, but also drew the sub-scenes in detail, he has to be worth more than 50 points, and the remaining score is the male lead Tom? Hanks, and he was also hand-picked by Liu Lang, but Lucas didn't care, Liu Lang's thing about giving him a split shot happened in China, and few people knew it except his assistant, and Liu Lang would not break it, then he was the only director of this movie, the movie was released for three months and was a huge success, all kinds of honors came one after another, Lucas's ears were almost filled with those beautiful words, and even he thought he was so powerful.

Liu Lang smiled when he heard you.

"Let's talk about it later, I'll give it to you when there's a suitable script, but I think this "True Lies" can be directed by James Cameron, I believe he will be interested!"

In his previous life, this movie was directed by Cameron, and in this life, Liu Lang felt that it was best to let him do it, but it was four years in advance.

"James, yes, I think he's suitable, but it's said that this guy went fishing in the Pacific, I'll try to contact him, it shouldn't be a problem!"

Lucas also felt that the script was a good fit for James Cameron, both of whom were good friends, and he could invite each other, and he believed that Cameron would like the script as well.
