Chapter 114 Production is in progress
When the owner of the Will Hotel knew that the crew of "Wedding Guest" settled in, he was very excited, and immediately stopped opening for business, only entertaining the crew, which was a prior agreement, similar to a charter, the crew agreed in advance, they signed a contract for one and a half months, and the accommodation and food were all provided by the Will Hotel, which could effectively protect the privacy and security of the crew.
According to the agreement, the Will Hotel should protect their privacy during their stay, and do not allow idle people to enter, and the crew must provide venues and help when recruiting extras, the boss Will is very excited, he knows that this is a major opportunity, far better than his hundreds of thousands of advertising, Hollywood superstars stay, how much face, now at the door of the Will Hotel, there are hundreds of people here every day, waiting to see the style of Hollywood superstars, Boss Will is personally guarding the door, prohibiting idle people from entering, and personally refusing to come to the door, which is not comfortable, and he still has to do business in the futureBut there is a contract, and all this is helpless.
The last time Mark stayed at Caesar's Palace and took the opportunity to implant an advertisement, with the super sale of "The Hangover", the flow of people checking in increased dramatically, which made the hotel very happy and took the opportunity to launch "The Hangover" package, attracting a large number of tourists to come, snatched away a lot of customers from the old rival MGM, the scenery is extreme, they see the favor, gave Sophia a face, and the result was a rich return, Mark is also very good at being a person, many times in public to express his gratitude to them, full of praise for the hotel's facilities and services, so that the hotel is very happy.
Now that "Wedding Aoke" is very famous, both Mark and the starring role are very famous, and they have successfully attracted more than 12 million advertising placements, which has greatly helped the crew's tight budget.
In these advertising placements, there are cosmetics, clothing, jewelry, cars, etc., Mark is happy to see this, since filming five wedding scenes, and then filming a few big scenes of the Ke family's marriage, it is obviously much more calm and confident.
As a well-known cutting-edge director, Mark can be called an identity and status, there are not many things to do for him, the size of the crew Nick will handle it well, his main task is to make a good movie, after the battle of "The Hangover", Mark is famous all over the world, he has established absolute authority in the crew, no one dares to question and disobey him, it feels quite good to do what he wants, which is also the reason why the protagonist of "Batman" was replaced, he was very unhappy and very unaccustomed.
They are spending a star flag to shoot the wedding of the Ke family, HSD has always been the center of politics, so of course it rarely becomes the location of romantic comedies, however, the spoof of "Wedding Proud" will naturally ignore this set, with two atypical playboys who are happy to be bridesmaids as the protagonists, it already seems nonsensical enough, this movie is even bolder, even jokes about the Minister of Finance and even the president, although it is vulgar, but this kind of spoof has always been very popular, the more absurd and nonsensical, The more nonsensical it is, the more successful the film is.
During the filming of Clary's wedding reception, the crew recruited 500 extras and took a week and a half to shoot, and the wedding cake used at Clary's wedding was worth $5,000, plus other expenses, amounting to millions of dollars.
While drinking noon tea, Rachel sighed, "Even if it's a real wedding, it won't cost so much money?"
Mark has a good impression of this maple honey, at least she can withstand Kevin's pressure and temptation, and she didn't climb another branch, Kevin's conditions are quite good, the heroine of the billionaire production, under coercion and temptation, even a first-line actress can't stand it, but she is a newcomer who withstands it, Mark said: "Your wedding will cost more, please believe me." ”
Rachel is the kind of person who doesn't look very sexy and beautiful, and is far inferior to Blake in terms of figure, but she is cheerful, and her happy and hearty laughter makes her more sweet and amiable, and her popularity is good, she laughs: "Why are you so sure?"
"You're going to be a superstar, you're going to make your dreams come true, you're going to make a lot of money, and there's a girl who's going to save money at her wedding," Mark said. ”
Rachel said: "In this business, love is extravagant, and marriage is even more risky, I dare not expect such a perfect love as Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt, nor dare I think about ending it all over again, but at least it will not be harmed." ”
Mark said: "Very pessimistic and sensual, are you playing with the cold style of a literary young woman?"
Rachel said, "I feel it." ”
Mark said, "How are you getting along with Ryan Gosling?"
Rachel's bright and charming big eyes looked at Mark and said: "My so-called relationship with him is the need for the crew's publicity, we don't call in the crew, we often quarrel, Gosling has asked the director more than once to replace me, and hype the movie with romance and scandals, this is one of the requirements in the contract, it is not easy for an actress who is not famous to be the heroine, and it takes a lot of effort." ”
Mark couldn't face her direct gaze, looked down at the script, and said: "I believe that after this year, it will be you who audition for the film company and the show, not the film company for you, just like Leonardo, he has a crush on Bruce Wayne, and Batman is his." ”
Rachel smiled and said, "I don't dare like that. ”
Mark said: ""The Hangover", "Mean Girl", and "Love Notes" This year is your explosive year, and I believe that after "Wedding Guest", the salary will be less than 10 million. ”
Rachel said, "Are you very optimistic about the notebook?"
Mark said: "Yes, do you have any plans for working so hard and earning so much money?"
Rachel said: "I don't even have a tenth of your annual income, how dare I say too much? I'm going to buy my mom and dad a lakeside house and invite them to travel the world, I hope they can work less hard, retire before the age of fifty, and send their younger siblings to the best colleges." ”
Mark smiled: "The responsibility is not small, what kind of investment do you usually make? You must know that the dollar depreciates very quickly, and the interest rate in the bank is too low, which is not the right way to manage money." ”
Rachel said: "Coincidentally, I'm not a smart person, and I don't know how to invest, investment is risky, and it's easy to lose all your hard-earned handfuls." ”
Mark said: "I suggest you buy Gu Ge's shares, which is an Internet technology company that is about to go public. ”
Rachel said with great interest, "Why are you so optimistic?"
Mark said: "Sophia let me earn enough 100 million US dollars, mortgage everything I can, I must make up 100 million US dollars, buy 20% of Google's shares, Citibank will soon operate and list for it?"
Everyone has a different fate and opportunity, the opportunity is in front of you, whether you can grasp it, it depends on everyone's luck.
Hiss, who had been drinking milk tea with his head bowed on the side, said: "What else is there to think about? Sophia won't make Mark suffer, Mark won't make his friends suffer, are you still afraid that Mark will cheat you? I have already prepared the salary, just wait for Brother Gu to go public, Mark, my guy, remember to give me a discount." ”
Mark said, "0k! "The ten-minute break is up, and now there are so many extras every day, and it is hundreds of thousands of expenses a day, Mark doesn't dare to waste and slack off every minute, the super bad movies in history, the kind that kills the company, almost all have the same characteristics, the investment is huge, it has been postponed repeatedly, and there are many contradictions within the crew, these factors are not available to the crew of "Wedding Aoke", but Mark does not dare to take it lightly, any delay means hundreds of thousands or even millions of expenses.
Mark admires James Cameron very much, this guy insisted on raising the budget of 130 million to 250 million, really awesome, really powerful, it is estimated that he almost forced the top management of Twentieth Century Fox to jump off the building at that time, if "Titanic" hit the street, I am afraid that everyone will die together.
And Mark looks at the problem from the perspective of the film company boss and the producer, his repeated postponement of the director's sabotage plan is unforgivable and acceptable, if someone under his command does this, he will personally clean him up, from a producer's point of view, the film must be made well, and the money cannot be made less, this is the business, if you only care about making movies, regardless of market reaction, and regardless of the interests of investors, it will be difficult to bring in funds and shoot again in the future.
So now many directors are involved in the status of producers after success, which is a good thing, rights also mean responsibility, a director who knows the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt is positive and positive, at least they will think about the interests of investors.
When Mark defines himself, he lists himself as a director and producer of commercial films, he has no literary heart, he will be satisfied with making satisfactory works, he is more obsessed with making a blockbuster, and then the box office is super, making money and making money softly, which will make him feel satisfied and honored, if he is asked to choose between the golden man and the super box office, he will choose the box office, which is why he is so obsessed with "Batman", because in its trilogy, two of the North Mi broke 400 million, and the world broke 1 billion, earning enough silver and beer.
Mark They finished filming the scenes in the church that required a lot of group performances, and then filmed a few scenes where the protagonists needed to play, which had the advantage of giving several protagonists more time to rehearse.
Big scenes are difficult to shoot, but Mark has a habit of shooting difficult to shoot first, he likes to shoot the easier and more relaxed, he has done this in the past few works, make a good plan, strictly follow the plan, shoot exterior scenes first, and then shoot interior scenes, and it is customary to cut while shooting, he must complete the work on the day before falling asleep, if there is something missing, he will toss and turn, and it is difficult to sleep.
Mark is filming John going to the gift pile to pick up Miss Claire, and his request for them is to follow the script, the specific details, and play on their own.
