Chapter 980: Compassion
"April 14, 1912. The largest and most luxurious cruise ship in human history crashed into an iceberg while traveling at high speed, causing a huge shipwreck. ”
Guo Dalu faced hundreds of entertainment reporters from all over the venue at the venue, and talked about the past of the Titanic in a low voice: "This accident shocked the Western world a hundred years ago, and the proportion of people rescued on the entire ship was very small, and most of them were killed in this accident, which is one of the largest shipwrecks in the history of human shipping, and it is still embarrassing to this day." ”
"Although I am a Chinese director, this tragedy in human history also shocked my soul, because this accident is too long, not to mention us Orientals, even Westerners have gradually forgotten. ”
Guo Dalu looked sad: "I think it is necessary for me to awaken everyone's memory and let everyone know that there was such a big accident a hundred years ago." As a director, you should transcend the boundaries of country and race, and devote your eyes to a wider world, such as love, such as war, such as hatred, such as history......!
The people who attended the press conference were not only Guo Dalu himself, Ma Cheng and several selected actors sat on the stage and accepted questions from reporters.
Wang Xiaolu, Song Qian and others were bored, and they all entered the press conference, but in the background, not into the hall.
"Eh, Brother Da Lu has such a good quality, does he really want to miss this shipping accident?"
After hearing Guo Dalu's words, Song Qian touched Wang Xiaolu's arm with a look of surprise: "The more I listen, the more hypocritical I feel!"
Wang Xiaolu sighed: "Do you believe this? Don't you know him? He is the most vigilant person in China against Western culture, don't you see him shouting every day to counterattack the cultural front?"
As one of the helmsmen of Guo Dalu's company, she finally found time to relax today, and now after hearing Song Qian's question, she said with a smile: "What do you think, the story of this ship, even the British themselves have never filmed a movie, but it was filmed by a Chinese director who claims to be fraternity, what does this mean? This shows that Britain's own director is not even as good as a Chinese film director! At least we don't have love! If this movie is filmed and released, what do you think of the British people's faces?" ”
Song Qian opened her mouth wide, "Is there still this deeper meaning? Brother Da Lu is going to slap all British film and television workers in the face?"
Wang Xiaolu said with a smile: "The slap in the face is just incidental, the real purpose is to awaken the enthusiasm of Westerners and establish an international image for himself. ”
Song Qian sighed and admired: "Brother Da Lu is so insidious! pretending to be so similar, the original purpose is to earn money from these foreigners!"
Wang Xiaolu said: "Isn't it! In fact, he was also angry with a "Kung Fu Panda" some time ago, which is obviously a cultural symbol of our country, but it has been discovered by Westerners in addition to its commercial potential, and it is used to shoot a story to earn money from our country. That's why he came up with the idea of filming stories about Western countries, in fact, just to breathe this out. ”
When Wang Xiaolu said this, there was a look of adoration on her face: "My husband is my husband, and his courage is greater than others!
Song Qian: "Yo Yo Yo, are you sour, are you sour? It's an old husband and wife, and I'm still doing this, and I'm getting goosebumps!"
At the front desk of the press conference, the projection video behind Guo Dalu continued, and the reporter on the screen began to explain the salvage scene in the video and the progress of the scene after getting permission: "After spending a huge amount of money, Director Guo finally figured out the location of the sinking of the Titanic, and now the offshore operation is underway, we consulted some old people in the United Kingdom, and some officials." They didn't really support our salvage, they felt it was best to keep the ship safe at the bottom of the sea, and didn't want us to disturb its sleep. ”
The Chinese-faced reporter shook his shoulders and looked helpless: "So we can't salvage the whole ship, we can only salvage some wreckage fragments, and then send these wreckage to the local memorial hall to commemorate the major shipwrecks in the past......"
After cutting off the live broadcast, Guo Dalu smiled at the reporters in front of the camera: "I expressed my shock and sorrow for the shipwreck in the past, and what I can do now is to salvage some wreckage fragments and send them to the memorial hall to express my heart." Of course, I will make this shipwreck a touching story, so that more people can understand that there was such an accident a hundred years ago......"
The press conference lasted for nearly three hours, and Guo Dalu was interviewed by a number of media reporters for the first time.
After the press conference, when returning to the backstage, Ma Cheng threw himself to Guo Dalu's admiration: "Guo Ye, you are acting like you! If I didn't know that you want to make money from these foreigners, I really thought that you really wanted to make something to commemorate this accident!"
Guo Dalu's face sank and he scolded: "Nonsense! Where did I act? In the face of such a shipwreck accident and the death of so many people, as a human being, it is the most basic conscience to sympathize with them and feel sad for them! I really feel pity and regret for this accident! The salvage of the wreckage of the shipwreck is really a gift to the local memorial in Britain. Let's do this, who dares to say that I am acting?"
Ma Cheng was slightly stunned, and muttered: "Didn't you say that you want to earn foreigners' money? Why did you suddenly become a saint of compassion?"
He saw that Guo Dalu had a serious face, and he was a little confused, and he didn't know whether what Guo Dalu said was true or false.
After the press conference, Guo Dalu began to lead a group of selected actors to the Mexican sea and began intense filming.
The names of the two leading actors selected by Guo Dalu are surprisingly familiar with the names of actors in another world in his mind, the actor is an American named Leonardo, and the actress is called Winslet, both of whom were selected by Guo Dalu from many audition actors.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you have a month to familiarize yourself with the script of this film, and in a month, let's start filming again!"
After arriving at the filming site on the beach, Guo Dalu gathered all the crew together and ordered: "We need passion and inspiration for this film, and of course, we need acting skills! ”
In another world, the shooting cycle of the original movie has reached five years, Guo Dalu does not have the patience to shoot for so long, in his expectation, the film must be shot in a year at most, otherwise, if it is delayed for too long, it will be a bit more than worth the loss.
With his current worth and income, if he stays abroad all day to shoot movies, it will be the biggest waste, and it is unprecedented to be able to spare a year to engage in film and television.
When Guo Dalu worked on film works before, he rarely had works of more than half a year, but he planned to spend a year to shoot this movie, which is already a very amazing thing.
The crew members are all old people who follow Guo Dalu, and when they know that Guo Dalu will spend more than a year filming this work, everyone knows how big this electricity is.
Everyone has been talking about big movies, big movies, and now seeing the grand scenes made by Guo Dalu in order to shoot the movie, as well as the money invested and the expected time, the crew finally has a full understanding of the three words "big movie".
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
