Chapter 275 [10,000 Chapters!]
From Daguang to the director, the focus of the storyboard script in everyone's hands is different, and Chen Tian is most worried about photography.
Tim Sushet's team also has only four people, and the rest of the filming crew was arranged by Han Sanping.
They are all well-known photography teams at the Chinese Film Festival, but they will not be responsible for the main cameras, and the main cameras are still handed over to Tim Sushet.
Tim Sushet's storyboard has been working on him for more than a month, and this shoot was the most difficult of his career.
The large number of hand-held photography, long lenses, and multi-camera interactive shooting made him feel tricky, and he saw that Chen Tiantim Sushet, who was worshipping the gods, also bowed to the incense case, and prayed in his heart that he would shoot smoothly this time.
"Han Sanping has come here in person, it seems that this time it is really not a joke, do you think this Chen Tian can make a Hollywood-level movie?" said Wang Qiang, a reporter from "Entertainment Weekly", looking at Chen Tian and a group of people in the distance.
"I don't know, but at least I got enough of it, did you see it, there was a police helicopter parked there, which was prepared for this movie.
Han Sanping specially borrowed it, which should be better than those garbage movies in China.
The cost of shooting is 5 million, but it's dollars. On the side, "Xinhua Daily" reporter Lin Fei said.
"Yes, the cost is super low in Hollywood, but it is not small in China, and it is not easy to recover the cost of 35 million.
There are few domestic directors who are so bold, and he can't ruin his reputation, I heard that the United States is waiting to see his jokes. To be honest, I still hope he succeeds. Wan Xiaowen, the only female reporter in the crowd, looked at Chen Tian from a distance and said.
She just returned from studying in Los Angeles this year. In the last six months of the United States, she was well aware of Chen Tian's status in the United States.
"No way. The capacity of the domestic film market is so large, and without Zhang Yimou's ability and appeal, there are a few people who dare to play like this, and Chen Tian will definitely not lose money.
I hope to drive domestic film production, a bunch of small-budget movies without a good story to make a bunch of bad movies!"
Behind a group of reporters, there were some fans who came to hear the news.
At this moment, they looked at a helicopter parked on the lawn not far away, painted in camouflage, and whispered, and this helicopter was temporarily borrowed by Han Sanping from the Beijing Police Station.
Originally, David Ellison wanted to bring his plane over, but Huaxia refused.
Eventually, the police AC313 helicopter, which was put into service last year, became the prop for the filming of "The Raid", and David Ellison was finally approved to become the pilot of the helicopter.
The story is set in Kowloon Zhai, Hong Kong in the early 90s. After the film is filmed, a lot of special effects will be made.
If you want to release it as much as possible, you have to compress the shooting time, otherwise it will be very difficult.
Weighing 13 tons, the AC313 is a large helicopter with a large load capacity, strong flaging capacity, a long range of up to 900 kilometers, and good comfort, which can carry 27 special police officers at the same time.
The final number of SWAT actors in "Raid" is only 13 compared with the original "Raid", in addition to Donnie Yen is the main character, Zou Zhaolong will play Donnie Yen's younger brother who is undercover in the gang.
And Zhang Zhen, An Zhijie, and Shi Xingyu will be relatively prominent special police roles, and the choice of Chen Tian, the bad cop candidate in "Raid", will not be officially announced until today's opening ceremony.
This is also the thing that attracts the most media attention in the entire "Raid" crew, except for a rare female role that was won by Zhang Jiani of the inconspicuous Huaxia Film Academy College.
Chen Tian has announced that this candidate will be an international superstar. is also a foreigner in the true sense of the word in the film "Raid".
International superstar, it is Chen Tian's gimmick that makes many domestic media rush to it.
At the moment, the role is playing and sitting in a helicopter. Everyone waited for the cosplayer to dedicate himself after the worship ceremony was over.
Regarding the so-called international superstar of this character, the American media dismisses it and thinks that it is more likely to be used to fool the Chinese audience.
"Believe in yourself, this role is not that important, but it will definitely be a fresh start!" the man inside the helicopter prayed softly, clenching his fist in front of his chest.
"Who do you think that person will be? If it's an international superstar, is 5 million enough for a salary?"
"There are many foreign actors who participate in performances with zero pay, and even ultra-low price friendship performances.
If it's just an innocuous character to make a cameo, it shouldn't be paid, and it may not be paid, but dividends. ”
"I think it's a cameo, watching Chen Tian's movie dividends in the newspaper is a killer feature for actors, and that Melip seems to have made a lot of money this time. ”
Listening to the words of her peers around her, Wan Xiaowen, who has just entered the industry, agrees.
"The Queen Wears Prada", which was released in North America for 20 days, has successfully crossed the threshold of $130 million at the North American box office.
Yesterday, he left behind Chen Tian's debut work "Buried Alive" to set a personal North American box office record of 130 million, and according to the estimates of the North American media, the final North American box office of "The Queen Wears Prada" will reach 1.6-170 million.
"The Queen Wears Prada" has also been released in thirteen overseas countries and regions one after another, and the overseas box office of "The Queen Wears Prada" has reached 70 million US dollars when there are still some box office powers that have not been released.
In this way, the overseas box office results also broke Chen Tian's personal overseas box office record, and the previous record was also held by "Buried Alive".
Although "The Queen Wears Prada" did not participate in the Chinese market this year, it was put on February 14 next year.
However, after a delay of more than half a year, Miramax and Chen Tian did not have too many expectations for the Chinese film market.
On the contrary, Chen Tian is looking forward to the upcoming opening of several overseas towns, according to the current table of "The Queen Wears Prada", there will be no big surprises, "The Queen Wears Prada" will reach the overseas results of "The Queen Wears Prada" in the future.
Combined with the North American box office. Chen Tian's version of "The Queen Wears Prada" will reach a new level.
And Anne Hathaway, who played Andy, turned over and became a hot Hollywood actress. Meryl Streep's image of Miranda in the play makes people realize that her acting skills have a higher height.
Although there is still more than half a year before next year's Academy Awards. But many media outlets have listed Meryl Streep as a candidate for Best Actress.
It was the box office hit of "The Queen Wears Prada" that strengthened the idea of the helicopter insider.
Originally, he was looking forward to giving him an absolute starring opportunity, but in the end, when faced with Chen Tian's invitation to play the role, he chose to think about it and agreed, which also led him to come to Huaxia quietly.
Having arrived in Huaxia with the Ellison siblings, he looked out of the plane, waiting for his gesture.
Chen Tian turned to look at everyone and clapped his hands: "I think everyone must be curious about who is playing another role."
I have said to the media before that this person will be an international superstar, and I have one of the biggest characteristics of this person. ”
Chen Tian pointed to his mouth: "Words count." ”
As soon as the words fell, the audience burst into laughter.
However, among everyone, Donnie Yen smiled a little reluctantly. Although his status as the male number one has not been touched until now, the international superstar in Chen Tian's mouth makes him a little nervous.
Playing with an international superstar, it's okay if the other party is a cameo, but this role is not secondary at all in the script, on the contrary, it runs through the beginning to the end of the film.
It can be said that this role is a very important role, and if this role is really played by an international superstar, then his male number one style will undoubtedly be weakened a lot.
"Let's all welcome him, luckily we don't have many women on the scene, otherwise I would have heard screams. Chen Tian finished with a smile, and then waved his hand in the direction of the helicopter.
Seeing Chen Tian's gesture. The man inside the helicopter let out a sigh of relief.
"See, it should be that mysterious international superstar who is about to appear!"
"I don't know who it is?"
"It's not Brad Pitt. ”
"It's almost visible!"
One by one, the reporters outside the isolation zone held up their cameras. Adjust the focal length and lens.
Soon a foot in leather shoes protruded from the helicopter, and soon the whole person appeared in the camera.
Wan Xiaowen felt suffocated all of a sudden, because the man in the camera was her favorite, the man who once touched billions of women around the world four years ago - Leonardo DiCaprio.
Not only Wan Xiaowen was shocked, but other reporters were also shocked by Chen Tian, an international superstar.
They never imagined that the international superstar Chen Tian said was Leonardo, who was popular all over the world, but the person in front of the camera at this moment was so real.
"Oh my God! it's Leon! It's Jack!"
"Jack!"
"Jack, I love you!"
"Leon, I love you!"
The few fans behind the reporters screamed loudly, and there was a group of female fans inside, who couldn't help but scream loudly when they saw Leonardo's appearance at this moment.
Zhang Jiani covered her mouth, she felt that she was so lucky, not only coincidentally got the opportunity to play the role, but also met the Prince Charming Leonardo in the hearts of countless girls.
The corners of Donnie Yen's eyebrows twitched, and he didn't expect Chen Tian to be so generous.
Having spent some time in the United States, he also knows that Leonardo DiCaprio is at a low point right now.
But even so, his fame is far inferior to that of the other party, whether at home or abroad, he can't help but worry about his future.
Yuan Heping, who was on the side, sensed Donnie Yen's thoughts, and lightly bumped Donnie Yen with his arm: "He can't fight, you can fight, don't forget that this movie is an action movie."
Don't think about it, it's still yours or yours, as long as you catch it yourself!"
Hearing Yuan Heping's words, Donnie Yen's heart slowly sank.
Han Sanping, who was standing next to Chen Tian, did not expect that Chen Tian would invite Leonardo DiCaprio, and the box office sensation caused by "Titanic" in China was almost at the level of a nuclear bomb.
The memory of "Titanic" by domestic audiences has not dissipated, and he can imagine that once the news of Leonardo's role in "Raid" comes out, how many people in China will have a sharp increase in their expectations for "Raid".
Some people who originally didn't pay attention to "The Raid" may be interested because of Leonardo's participation, which is a direct impact of Leonardo.
"Xiao Chen. Yours is the case. I guess I didn't have his salary in my budget. Han Sanping said with a smile. This character is the only one he doesn't even know.
At one point, he also asked who it was, but Chen Tian kept saying that it would be a big surprise, but he refused to reveal a word outside of the surprise.
He was also a little dissatisfied with Chen Tian's evasion, but at this moment, he saw that Leonardo's dissatisfaction had completely dissipated.
"No, but I promised to give him a 3% box office net profit dividend, this Mr. Han, I believe you won't disagree.
If you don't agree, I'll deduct it from my own salary, but I know that you are definitely willing to give a lot of money, and he is worth the price, right?" Chen Tian said with a smile.
Originally, he did not consider choosing Leonardo DiCaprio. Instead, I considered inviting a super popular star in China to star.
After participating in the recording of "Face to Face", when he returned to the hotel to study the box office of Chinese movies, he noticed the sensation caused by "Titanic" in China.
This led to the emulation of "The Raid" to choose a foreigner, and this role was eventually given to Leonardo DiCaprio.
In "The Raid", Leonardo DiCaprio will not show his handsome side, and will use makeup opportunities for proper aging.
Including the hair, although it is not as old as the later Wayu, it will definitely not be as handsome as in "Titanic".
Chen Tian believes that Leonardo is enough to interest domestic fans in China, even if Leonardo is now at an absolute low point in his career in the United States, but in China he is still the Jack who has touched countless people and touched countless people.
Originally, Chen Tian was not confident that he would be able to invite Leonardo, and once made second-hand preparations to invite the role to Hong Kong star Ren Dahua.
Once Leonardo refuses, he will invite Ren Dahua.
After all, his friendship with Leonardo was limited to this year's Golden Globe dinner, when he and Leonardo had a drink. I also said that if there is a suitable role, I must be invited.
But after all, the role of the team leader in "The Raid" is not the most important and eye-catching, but in the end, Leonardo agreed to Chen Tian's invitation on the 3rd. That's where Leonardo arrived.
"Jack, Jack, Jack!"
"Jack, I love you!"
"I love you, Jack!"
The few fans who originally came for the actors and Chen Tian now almost chose to scream and scream frantically without hesitation, just for Leonardo to look at them.
Although Leonardo couldn't understand Chinese, he could still hear the word Jack.
When Chen Tian invited him, one of the reasons was the weight of his jack in the hearts of Chinese fans.
Hearing the enthusiastic shout at this moment, Leonardo seemed to have regained the feeling of his peak, even if the people outside the isolation zone did not exceed a hundred people combined.
In the direction of the separation zone, Leonardo waved his hand, opened his mouth, and shouted awkwardly: "I love you!"
Although the words are barely audible in Chinese, this does not prevent his response from driving fans crazy.
"Chen Tian, an international superstar, is really very invited, he alone estimates that many people will go to the cinema, at least my wife must be willing. Zhou Zhou Fei said helplessly.
The originally quiet crew suddenly became lively, and this qiē was caused by Leonardo's appearance.
Chen Tian acted as Leonardo's translator and translated Leonardo's words to the entire crew.
And Tim Sushet and his side are specially invited from the photography major of the Beijing Film Academy to translate, so as to avoid communication problems with the Huaxia staff, and the director of the film shooting mistakes.
After a short introduction, all members of the crew were disbanded on the spot and will go to their respective preparation rooms.
Filming for "The Raid" will begin in earnest two hours later, and the people who need to attend the show and work are seizing the last two hours to prepare.
The main plot of the entire film will be completed at the Huai-Rou Film and Television Base in Beijing, and some scenes of Kowloon Village will be shot with green screens and miniatures, and then post-production special effects.
"David, are you ready? Don't mess up, you're the first to play, you have to have a start!" Chen Tian patted David Ellison on the shoulder, who was receiving simple makeup.
David Ellison confidently gave himself a thumbs up: "Absolutely no problem, don't worry about leaving it to me!"
Since the camera doesn't go directly to David Ellison. So his makeup is relatively simple. After putting on the pilot's helmet and police uniform, he could not be identified as a foreigner.
Although it made David Ellison a little depressed. But he eventually chose to accept.
Compared to David Ellison, Leonardo DiCaprio's makeup is a little more complicated.
He needs to wear makeup to make himself look older, and this is one of his rare roles to play old.
"Leon, thank you for your help. Chen Tian said to Leonardo.
Undercover is a role that tests the acting skills of actors, and Leonardo needs to play a black policeman, but Chen Tian has absolute confidence in Leonardo's acting skills.
The only thing to worry about is the language, although the dubbing will be re-dubbed according to the edited film in the later stage, but the actors' mutual help during filming plays a big role in substituting the language of the film.
Although it is possible to use an interpreter to help in places where the on-site camera cannot be filmed. But after all, translation is a translator and the actor personally accompanies the expression of expression are two different things, which is also the one thing Chen Tian was most worried about when he invited Leonardo.
After all, inviting Leonard to do more things to increase the attention of the movie and increase the box office, but Chen Tian still wants to shoot the film quickly in the final analysis.
If the filming progress is slow due to language problems, it is likely that the gains outweigh the losses.
"I should say thank you for the invitation, rest assured that I will work hard to do a good job, I don't want to disappoint the people who support me!" Leonardo and Chen Tian high-fived.
Two hours is a long time for journalists and fans outside the quarantine zone, who can only see the busy figures of the staff, and not much else to gain.
However, they have sent back the news they knew as soon as possible, and the news that Leonardo has become the last mysterious role of Chen Tian's "Raid" international superstar has appeared on some websites in China.
The release of this news made some domestic fans feel crazy, and it also made them look forward to "Raid" even more as Chen Tian expected.
Soon the news reached the United States on the other side of the ocean. At the moment, the United States is at nine o'clock in the morning.
People are busy at this time, except for some people who have free time to browse the news. The rest are the fellow Chinese reporters.
They have learned from Huaxia one after another, Leonardo DiCaprio has become the only foreign character in Chen Tianxin's film.
Leonardo's appearance made it impossible for them to criticize Chen Tian's racism.
But they found another way, and that is that Leonardo is now in a downturn in Hollywood.
The films starring in the film for two consecutive years have lost money, and none of them are small losses.
Although no one dares to believe that Leonardo will remain in the doldrums and change from a first-tier superstar to a third-tier actor, at least at this time Leonardo is in the doldrums.
On the American Internet on the other side of the ocean, people began to actively discuss.
"Does he want Leon to turn over with this film?"
At least it won't lose money again, and Leon should be glad that the bad period of the box office downturn is coming to an end, because this is destined to be a film that won't lose money. ”
"Is this a wise decision? Justin Chan has always had magical magic, and if you look at the stars under him, there are a few who don't get up.
For example, Anne Hathaway, a month ago, people called her vase, and it was a useless vase.
And now, she has returned to people's attention and has become a popular actress.
And this crazy span is just one film, and that's the magic of Justin Chen. ”
"There's Steve Carell, who starred in "Little Miss Sunshine" who was impressive, but now he's showing everyone his ability to be funny.
Look at the "Office" starring him, it's really great, and the movie table is not bad.
By the way, there's also that little girl, James Lawrence, who I watch every episode of "iCarly", which is one of the best American dramas I've watched this year. ”
Whether Leonardo can use Chen Tian's magical power to return to the peak of his life has become the focus of many people's discussions, Leon's fans hope so, and those who don't like Chen Tian hope that Leon can bring bad luck to Chen Tian.
On the other side of the ocean, at the Huajing Film and Television Base, the filming of "Raid" kicked off.
The first few scenes of "The Raid" were relatively simple, but for Zhang Jiani, this was the first appearance in her acting career.
The shot of her appearance is in the fourth scene. The first three scenes were all shots of Donnie Yen.
In the fourth scene, she appears in very few shots. is the same as the only female character in the later "Raid". Zhang Yun played by her is the wife of Zheng Qiang played by Donnie Yen, a woman who is pregnant and about to give birth.
Although there is only a short shot, Chen Tian has no low requirements for her.
After giving her this role, she was specifically asked to learn a lot about pregnant women.
Chen Tian, who was sitting behind the monitor, looked at the qiē on the screen, and Kate Green walked to the camera with a clapperboard: "The 0001st scene of "Raid" has officially begun!"
As the clapperboard closed, a SWAT watch and a pistol appeared on the monitor showing the time at four o'clock in the morning.
In the close-up shot, the second hand on the SWAT watch is turning rapidly.
Soon, Donnie Yen's figure appeared under the overhead camera lens. Donnie Yen bowed to Guan Erye, who was enshrined on the wall, and then inserted the incense in his hand into the incense burner.
Chen Tian looked at the footage presented by several cameras in the monitor, this first scene is very simple, and it only takes a few seconds to edit it in the end, and there is no difficulty: "Pass!"
With Chen Tian's voice, the first shooting of "Raid" ended.
From the second to the third, what needs to be shown is Donnie Yen's self-training.
Chen Tian's shooting method is one lens to the end, multi-camera cross-shooting.
The main shot is a close-up, which is used to show Donnie Yen's muscles and strength, so that the audience can initially feel his ability.
And Donnie Yen finished it very easily, but Zhang Jiani, who was lying on the bed in the room at the moment, was a little nervous.
With the help of the dressing room, she looked a little tired. As much as possible, it shows the state of a pregnant woman who is about to give birth.
"Raid Scene 0004 ready for filming, action!" All five machines are up and running.
Nick, Tim Sushet's first apprentice.
This highly talented guy became quite an important part of Tim Sushet's team after working on several films.
In Chen Tian's opinion, Nick will soon be able to take charge on his own.
At this moment, Nick followed Donnie Yen with the camera in hand, and his lens was the most important of all the cameras.
But in front of the camera, he wants to make the audience not feel that the picture is shaking, which requires a lot of arm strength and ability.
If you are outdoors, you can also use the camera to traverse, but the space is limited indoors, so Nick finally took the initiative to take on the task from Tim Sushet.
Chen Tian smiled when he looked at the camera belonging to Tim Sushet, and the expression on Donnie Yen's face was also in place.
The other camera positions have their own responsibilities, and the last few camera positions are edited into a single shot.
"Are you awake?" Donnie Yen walked to the window and looked at Zhang Jiani lying on the bed, his tone was very gentle.
"Hmm. Zhang Jiani replied softly, her eyes full of reluctance.
"Take good care of yourself, I will come back as much as I can!" Donnie Yen held Zhang Jiani's hand and said softly.
Zhang Jiani looked at Donnie Yen: "My child and I are waiting for you!"
After saying this, Zhang Jiani breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't hear CUT, and her shot was basically over.
However, at this moment, Chen Tian called out CUT.
"Jiani, your eyes and expression should be reluctant, you are his wife, you can feel something, and you can be reluctant, OK?
Don't be in a hurry to take back the love after saying the lines in the end, watching him leave, maybe I'll use this shot!
Let's do it again!" Chen Tian put on his headphones after speaking, and all the personnel began to work again.
The reporters and fans who stayed outside the quarantine zone looked depressed, after all, they could not get into the filming set.
And even if the camera needs to use the helicopter, they can only see the shadow of the helicopter.
Donnie Yen, they will not see the scene of them falling from the helicopter.
The fourth scene was filmed four times, and Chen Tiancai shouted out.
Zhang Jiani was already nervous, and almost screamed out when she heard the excitement of the whole person.
Although some Chinese people in the crew expressed a trace of curiosity about her joining the group, not many people paid attention to it at this moment.
Everyone's attention was immediately focused on the next scene, which was also the bloodiest beginning of the film, and Chen Tian was already ready to be rated R for the film in the United States.
Liang Xiaolong. This veteran Hong Kong action star. Cun Zài, who used to be one of the four little dragons in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, played the role of a drug lord in the film this time.
Chen Tian was very satisfied with Liang Xiaolong, who recommended him. In fact, the on-site shooting effect proves Chen Tian's choice.
Liang Xiaolong completely shows the ruthlessness and ruthlessness of a gangster drug lord, and this scene is basically the same as the later "Raid".
In the face of the person who made the mistake, the picture of Liang Xiaolong using a pistol to shoot his headshot and a hammer directly hammering his headshot is perfectly presented on the monitor.
The bloody footage was upgraded by the high-speed camera with blood splattering out at once, and it was also the first time that a high-speed camera was used in the whole film of "The Raid".
The filming of "The Raid" proceeded in an orderly manner, and David Ellison got into the helicopter parked in the open space outside the building.
The helicopter will be piloted by David Ellison to a mile away from the filming location, and then 13 SWAT officers will fly from a distance to the vicinity of the unfinished building, and then the SWAT officers will slide off the plane.
Small cameras were placed in several places in the helicopter, and David Ellison waved at the camera in front of him: "The David Ellison is about to take off!"
After speaking. The propellers of the helicopter began to turn.
Despite being only a helicopter, the momentum brought by the rotation of the propeller is amazing.
The people two hundred meters away still felt a slight vibration on the ground, and soon the helicopter lifted off and slowly flew away.
The filming of "The Raid" went smoothly, and the first difficulty came when the SWAT entered the building.
The lens requires a large number of multi-camera follow-up shots to maintain the authenticity of the lens and give people a sense of documentary.
"Raid" is being filmed intensively in China, and Wen Ziren, who is far away in the United States, is nervously preparing for the restoration of the special effects of Jiulongzhai.
This is also the highlight of the final formation of the "Raid" film, the time flies quickly, the two-day shooting time is over, and the film also completes the beginning plot of the gangster's counterattack, which was quite difficult at the beginning.
This is also the prologue of a large part of the film's action scenes, from the cold-blooded sniper. The cunning of the untycoon to the brazenness of the strafing police.
Chen Tian needs to lay out the rampant drug lords in a very layered way, and then lay the psychological foundation for the uncontrolled violent clashes between police and bandits later.
This part is a group play. It can also be regarded as a big scene in the "Raid" film.
In order to save time, Chen Tian was responsible for the main part of the shooting, and Christopher Nolan was responsible for the other part of the shooting.
Nolan understands Chen Tian's request very well, which is also the fundamental reason why Chen Tian is relieved to hand it over to Nolan.
This also saves time, as up to 12 cameras are working on both sides at the same time.
There was the sound of cameras running everywhere, and everyone on the crew was engaged in their work.
Such a high-intensity shooting attempt was completed smoothly on the second day, and Chen Tian specially entertained everyone in the evening.
"Eat well, but don't drink, you won't have that kind of enjoyment tomorrow night.
Don't call me a tyrant, I'm not there yet. Chen Tian said to everyone with the drink in his hand.
Filming for "The Raid" will begin tomorrow night from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m., with breaks in between, but only three hours at most.
This is very demanding for actors, especially the feeling of punching to the flesh pursued by Chen Tian's "Raid".
Human fatigue will undoubtedly make the muscles feel tired, and the muscles will undoubtedly ruin the beauty when the camera is tired.
In the later generations, "Raid" was unreasonable, and the protagonist was like Xiaoqiang who couldn't be killed, and he didn't feel tired until the end.
Here Chen Tian also continues this unreasonableness, so that Zheng Qiang, played by Donnie Yen, will not feel tired, just like an immortal Xiaoqiang, a crazy battle.
And Donnie Yen's own team is very demanding, and he also knows that the time for his real hard work is coming.
Chen Tian's fans on the other side of the ocean can only wait for the sporadic news from Huaxia, but these sporadic news are not as much as the filming of "The Raid".
Chen Tian, who returned to the room, echoed the situation of the shooting two days ago, at least he was satisfied at that time.
In the later stage, you also need to look at the editing situation, and if there is an unsatisfactory one, then make up the shot.
However, Chen Tian feels that there should not be many reshoots that need to be retaken, and the smooth filming is undoubtedly because the actors are very professional and do not rely on Weiya to play, which reduces the possibility of reshooting many action scenes.
And tomorrow there won't be much footage related to guns. It's more about showing hand-to-hand combat.
Chen Tian also needed more sports shots to present the audience with a sense of tension and excitement. The sports lens is a photography method that uses pushing, pulling, shaking, moving, following the camera, comprehensive movement, lifting and other methods to make the camera move.
There are two main categories of motion shots: panning and moving photography. When shooting, the camera position does not change, and the shooting direction is continuously changed, which is called panning.
Mobile photography, on the other hand, refers to the continuous change of shooting direction and position of the shooting.
Tomorrow will rely more on mobile photography, which is very demanding for cinematography and is the real beginning of the difficulty of filming "The Raid".
While Chen Tian was thinking, Tim Sushet was explaining to the filming team.
Tomorrow's shooting is not something he can do alone, although he is in control. But there will inevitably be times when he can't control it, and he needs everyone to cooperate with him perfectly, only in this way can he get the most perfect result.
After all, the film is shot by the camera, although the director and actors are the most important, but without the camera, then the film cannot be formed.
"Raid" was filmed intensely, and Donnie Yen's cousin conquered everyone in the crew.
But his requirements for action also made the rest of the crew feel harsh, but what Chen Tian pursues is truth, so Donnie Yen's strictness is exactly what Chen Tian wants.
However, fortunately, most of the actors are action actors, and many actions have been rehearsed before filming, which can avoid accidental injuries during filming and ensure the efficiency of shooting.
It is for these reasons. The filming of "The Raid" went very smoothly, and before I knew it, a week had passed.
And David Ellison, who ended his first big-screen journey from China, and Megan Ellison also invested in negotiations with DreamWorks.
The frequent contact between Ivanka Trump and Meghan Ellison has attracted media attention. Although Ivanka Trump announced her stake in Miramax Films in "The Queen Wears Prada", announcing the Donald family's entry into the film and television industry.
Compared with the real estate industry on which the entire Donald family depends, the film and television industry that invested in Miramax cannot be compared to the real estate industry at all.
But Ivanka Trump is often with the Ellison siblings, and sometimes there is a large team.
What's more, some media found that several of them were in frequent contact with DreamWorks, which couldn't help but make them start to speculate about the reason for the contact.
"Five hundred million, that's too low!
Isn't that a joke? Our animation department is only worth 500 million? How much does "Shrek" grossing worldwide? Can't they see, it's a complete joke, no sincerity!" Jeffrey Katzenberg said a little loudly.
As one of the three founders of DreamWorks, he was in charge of the animation department.
DreamWorks is in trouble right now, and that's something he doesn't want to see.
The animation department was already a sure thing to be sold, but he hoped that the animation department he had built would sell for a high price and save the precarious Dream Factory.
After approaching DreamWorks, Miramax made his first offer yesterday - $500 million.
This made him very unhappy, and he felt that the five hundred million dollars was an insult to his hard work.
"Don't be angry, Jeffrey, your heart is not good!" advises Steve Spielberg, an old friend and partner who doesn't want the burgeoning DreamWorks to go bankrupt.
In the music industry and animation industry, he can feel the reluctance of his two old friends, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen, who are in charge of animation and music respectively.
"Steve, David, what do you think of Universal? Didn't they express their thoughts strongly? Why is there no news?
Although Miramax's group of bastards only gave 500 million, they at least made an offer, why didn't Universal?" Jeffrey Katzenberg was depressed.
DreamWorks is in financial crisis, which is something that the entire film industry and even the public knows.
Even if the release of "Shrek 2" received the global box office, it still couldn't prevent the arrival of this decline, but it was delayed for a while.
But everyone knows that if you want DreamWorks to regain its glory, you can't do it in one or two years.
Those high debts are enough to put DreamWorks under great pressure, not to mention the high risk of future films.
Once it can't make a profit, then DreamWorks will only decline faster, unless DreamWorks has three or four movies in a row that make a lot of money like "Shrek 2".
But this is simply impossible for DreamWorks, after all, the production cycle of a good cartoon is too long.
Now everyone at DreamWorks is looking forward to the success of "Get Out of Clone Island", which is almost a hard hit. Spielberg and the three of them also hope that the negotiations will drag on until the release of "Escape from Clone Island".
But now it's not optimistic. The only of the giants who were optimistic about DreamWorks' animation division was Universal and the inconspicuous-looking Miramax.
And Universal did not give an offer after being interested. This frustrated their ideas a bit.
More people compete to sell at a high price, and if no one competes, the possibility of wanting to sell at a high price is too small, unless the other party is stupid and has a lot of money.
But in just over half a month of contact, Miramax's team is obviously not stupid and rich, but rather shrewd.
"Oracle and Donald Properties, the elite of the business negotiations between the two giant companies, damn Miramax!" David Geffen couldn't help but scold.
He had thought that two companies that were not in the film industry would not have an advantage in negotiations, but who knew the opposite.
The negotiation team of the two companies that is not in the film industry shows that their negotiation power is completely senior industry level. This, combined with their original bargaining power, made DreamWorks passive.
Although Chen Tian, who is far away in China, is busy shooting every day, he also listens to the negotiations on the US side all the time.
"What we have to do now is not to keep the news closed, even if that will affect the release of our next films.
But once the news is released and confirmed to the outside world, then we may change from passive to proactive, and I believe that there are still people who will take action. Spielberg mused.
Now the media does not know that Miramax is in contact with DreamWorks, which is also the news that Miramax hopes that DreamWorks will try to control the contact between the two sides as much as possible during the negotiations.
"Steve, I think this method works, anyone can put the news, not necessarily us!" David Geffen continued.
Just when the sun rises in China. TMZ magazine broke the news on its website that Miramax and DreamWorks were in talks to buy DreamWorks' animation division.
The news of this news immediately caused a shock in the industry, and the news that DreamWorks was facing a crisis and wanted to sell the animation department had long been reported.
The fact that the music department was sold before proved that it was not for nothing that the animation department was to be sold. However, no one expected that the buyer who wanted to buy it was Miramax.
It didn't take long for Miramax to be bought by Chen Tian, the Ellison siblings, and the Weinstein brothers, although the market value soared.
But the cash flow itself is far from abundant, and all that no one thought of buying DreamWorks was Miramax.
However, at this moment, the news is indeed conclusive, and Miramax wants to buy DreamWorks Animation, and the fact that Ivanka Trump and Ellison siblings have been close to each other for a long time has a reason for being in Miramax News.
“f…… Uck, those guys, we're under a lot of pressure!"
"Hey, Justin, I know you're not talking about me, but it sounds weird. Chen Tian, who had just gotten up, said while brushing his teeth.
The phone is set aside, and the hands-free is on.
David Ellison's frustration, he could hear it clearly in his tone.
Now that the news is being announced, Miramax is bound to have more difficulty acquiring DreamWorks' animation division.
Even if Mimax doesn't feel so powerful, but now that the news is definitely coming to buy DreamWorks Animation, those real giants such as Universal, such as Disney, such as Sony Columbia, will definitely not sit idly by and watch Miramax buy it.
Chen Tian and Ellison siblings plus the joining of Donald Real Estate have made Miramax a force to be reckoned with in Hollywood, and Hollywood's cake is so big.
Everyone knows that the DreamWorks animation department is a department with strong strength, and if it is successfully acquired by Miramax, then Miramax's strength will undoubtedly rise to a higher level.
This is something that the Hollywood giants absolutely do not want, and it is the source of David Ellison's anger.
Although he thought that he would eventually compete with other giants, it was definitely not now.
Premature exposure will make him feel pressure, and it is likely to affect the whole negotiation.
"Justin, you're so happy, really!" David Ellison's envious tone came out of the earpiece, "you ran to Huaxia and ran away from our chatter.
I know it's time for you to get to work and get the shoot done, and you know I'd love to be there, but now I'm just going to have to stay here. ”
"Don't worry, I won't let your efforts go in vain, I will give you the best action movie, I promise!" Chen Tian finished speaking, took a sip of water and rinsed his mouth.
Looking at yourself in the mirror of the washstand: "New day, come on!"
Today will usher in the real fight highlight of "Raid", and the character played by Zou Zhaolong and the character played by Wu Jing will have a fierce fight.
And after this scene is over, except for a short period of Donnie Yen, the climax of the whole film will be ushered in, and the brothers Donnie Yen and Zhang Zhen will single out the role played by Wu Jing.
Chen Tian, who was sitting behind the monitor, stared at the screen tightly. (To be continued......)
