Chapter 1617: Brave the Island of Death
Bruckheimer came earlier than Yin Jun thought.
The next afternoon, he hurried to Yin Jun's office in Lianyi Film Company.
"Jun Shao!"
Bruckheimer's Cantonese salutation, that is more standard and more standard.
But after the salutation, he was in a hurry of American English, "You say that this Christian is so willful, what kind of opera is he going to play? Isn't this a joke? I have almost found a script for him, and I will start filming after his "Resident Evil"!"
"Calm down, sit down and talk. Yin Jun looked at him funny, and poured him a glass of water, "We are all old friends, don't be so impatient, you can say anything directly." β
Bruckheimer's face flushed.
He knew that Yin Jun could see his pretense, but being able to say it so directly meant that Yin Jun did not treat himself as an outsider.
"Ahem, I'm also anxious!" Bruckheimer took a sip of water before saying, "You know, I'm very optimistic about Christian, and I'm ready to build him so that he can become an existence comparable to Schwarzenegger and Stallone." But I didn't expect him to be so brainless! Now it's okay, the movie I prepared is useless!"
"What movie did you have for him?" Yin Jun asked.
"A spy movie similar to "Life and Death", but it has not yet been submitted to the company for review. Bruckheimer said.
"The remaining three films of the company, I have my own arrangements for you, and I will put down that spy movie for the time being. Yin Jun said lightly, "I have a movie here, recommend a new actor to you, and then you make it." β
"Is it one of the remaining three?" Bruckheimer's eyes lit up.
"Yes. Yin Jun nodded.
He stood up and took out a script from the safe next to him.
Bruckheimer took it and took a look, and it was written with both Chinese and English titles.
γTHE ROCKγοΌοΌ
Bruckheimer picked up the script and flipped through it.
He is used to reading Yin Jun's script, and the first few pages must be the main category of this script.
Then there are the character settings, detailed content, storyboards, and so on.
So what he's reading now is the rough idea of the script.
The story is simple.
It is said that a group of soldiers and men of the Navy and the Army's reconnaissance unit were dissatisfied with the fact that the US government had sent them to carry out various undisclosed tasks, and that their colleagues had sacrificed their lives but could not get honor and compensation, so under the leadership of General Hammer, they decided to strive for honor and compensation for these sacrificial comrades.
So General Hammer led them to steal X gas and X bombs, and occupied Alcatraz, a tourist island that was once an abandoned prison.
While controlling the hostages, he aimed the warhead at the nearby downtown area of San Francisco.
On his side, he could only think of a way to destroy it completely, and at the same time send the best chemical experts to find a British agent who had escaped from Alcatraz, and prepare the two of them to lead the way for the commando team to forcibly rescue the hostages.
The story revolves between a chemist, an agent, and General Hammer.
And then the unexpected plot development, the display of various human nature, thrilling action shootouts, and various explosion shots......
These Yin Jun were not written in the script, but Bruckheimer, who now has a wealth of experience, can see the energy contained in it at a glance.
Yes.
The Chinese name of this script is the well-known "Brave Island".
This 96-year-old masterpiece, a super classic that Bruckheimer has to mention in his career, the battle for fame of bombing, and the collaboration between Nicolas Cage and Sean Connerry, has always been an indelible classic in the minds of American fans and even fans around the world.
It's not just action-thrilling, such as gunfight shots, explosion shots, and a car chase in San Francisco.
More importantly, the core of the film it explores is very lamentable and melancholy.
It's a rare movie where you don't hate the villain.
On the contrary, it is said that in the movie criticism of the year, the biggest tragic figure was the villain General Hammer.
People have only sympathy for Hammer and his men.
Many people even felt that if General Hammer and his men escaped in the end, it would be a great result.
Yin Jun also likes General Han Mo's determination and sacrifice to seek justice for his subordinates, regardless of his own honor and disgrace.
So in this movie, General Hammer's role has been strengthened a lot.
Includes the first 5-minute scene of General Hammer.
Reminiscing, making up your mind, going to the cemetery to say goodbye to your wife...... and when he passed by several soldiers of the honor guard, he raised his hand and saluted resolutely, all revealing his tragedy.
The better he writes, the more tears he can earn when he dies unexpectedly, and the more intense the discussion will be.
Of course, some of the original scenes also need to be modified.
For example, General Hammer talked about his battle in the south of XX, and Yin Jun changed it to Thailand.
There were also some soldiers of General Hammer's army, and the plot that was shaken at the last moment was also modified by Yin Jun to be more sleek and changed to an accident.
Ten minutes later, Bruckheimer, who had read the script twice, put down the script.
"Good script!" Bruckheimer gave a thumbs up, "If this movie is made, it must be a good movie full of controversy!
"Of course!" Yin Jun accepted the praise with a smile, "Jerry, that chemistry expert, let our Keanu Reeves star in the role, and you can choose the rest." β
"Good. β
Bruckheimer nodded, very satisfied with Yin Jun's arrangement.
As a producer, you must have enough power, otherwise you will be hollowed out and become a puppet.
Of course, Bruckheimer will not be willing to be a puppet, what he wants to do is a gold medal producer with real power.
Although he signed a contract with Kirin Culture for 5 years and 6 films, to a greater extent, the two sides are in a cooperative relationship.
Yin Jun never regarded him as a subordinate, and even agreed with his own company to make films, and then distribute them through the distribution channels of the Kirin Group.
In this "Brave Island", although the role of a chemical expert is the most important, the middle-aged British agent and General Hammer are all very outstanding characters.
There are also some people in Bruckheimer's entrainment who often cooperate.
If they can star in the annual production of United Arts Films, it is definitely a qualification.
Especially this script is still written by Yin Jun, and it is destined to become popular.
If you are lucky enough to play a role, it is not a problem to become famous at all.
It's a little regrettable that British agents are at least around 50 years old, and General Hammer should be in his 40s, so he can't install young actors.
But Bruckheimer was already satisfied.
With Yin Jun's status and strength, his own script, you can choose two of the three protagonists, what else do you want?
"Christian's side, don't let him go. Yin Jun groaned, "I also go to the UK from time to time to see him, so that he doesn't give up exercising, but increases his acting skills...... When he comes back, let's work together to see if he has the qualifications to go to the top of this world!"
"I understand. β
Bruckheimer smiled.
He understood Yin Jun's meaning at once.
In fact, when Fei Xiang returns to the United States, at most one movie, basically his contract with Kirin Culture should also end.
Yin Jun's current speech is obviously that everyone will cooperate in the future.
And the way of cooperation must be similar to now, Yin Jun produced the script, Fei Xiang starred, and Bruckheimer was the producer.
In this way, it is actually Bruckheimer who takes advantage.
Disney and United Arts Pictures are getting stronger and stronger, and there are more and more producers and directors.
Yin Jun didn't use his own people, but chose him Bruckheimer, which is the best affirmation of Bruckheimer's ability.
"That's right, Junshao. Bruckheimer suddenly remembered what he felt was wrong just now, "In "Brave Death Island", isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to use the shady scenes and contradictions in the navy?"
"Huh?"
Looking at Yin Jun's surprised eyes, Bruckheimer smiled and said, "Have you forgotten? Didn't we praise the Navy Flying Team fiercely in the previous "Top Gun"? Now that it changes hands, it is a knife to them, is it easy to make the relationship between us that we have only been good and directly make it gone?"
"Oh. β
Yin Jun patted his head.
"Brave Island of Death" was written several years ago, and it was filled in the year before last, and of course I didn't notice these small details.
Bruckheimer was right.
You just said good things about the navy on the front foot, and you immediately listed them as villains on the back foot, and your position is too unfirm.
It is also easy to lose the favor of the navy.
"Well, then change it to the Army. Yin Jun thought about it and made a decision.
"Okay!"
Bruckheimer took out his pen and made the minutes.
Then he said, "What's the budget for this film?"
"50 million US dollars!" Yin Jun had already made a decision in his heart, "There are no big names in the actors, the most important thing is the explosion, flying car, gunfight special effects, you have to keep an eye on it yourself...... I think that these projects will definitely be used more and more in movies in the future, so we should develop them well. β
Bruckheimer nodded, "Yes, I thought so too." However, compared with "Beverly Hills Detective", its overall macro effect is more prominent, and even the production cost has to be increased a lot. β
"If only you could understand. Yin Jun smiled.
Bruckheimer suddenly felt that Yin Jun's smile was quite meaningful.
But he didn't ask either.
As everyone knows, Yin Jun really thinks like this.
One of the biggest setbacks of Bruckheimer and Bombshell's lives is on the same movie.
Well, I should add to this the dream factory that is in full swing.
The three of them jointly produced a blockbuster with a cost of hundreds of millions of dollars.
The name is called
"Pearl Harbor".
As a result, the special effects were well done, and the actors were also excellent, but the plot was a mess, and in the end, it was a mess.
As a direct result, DreamWorks fell into serious losses, and Bruckheimer also lost tens of millions of dollars.
The bombshell was even worse, and he was almost shot to death on the beach.
If it weren't for Spielberg's insight into the talent and let him shoot "Transformers", there would be no future glory!
Bruckheimer also withdrew from this kind of war film because of this, and he no longer touched it even if he was killed.
Then he was also lucky to write the theme of "Pirates of the Caribbean", which combined with Disney's strong publicity, which became a sensation around the world, bringing him an overall box office of billions and countless peripheral income.
Only DreamWorks has been in a slump since then, and was finally acquired by others, leaving regrets in vain!
