Chapter 417: "The Matrix" starts filming

With the report of "Those Things in the Entertainment Industry", the topic of Zhao Xing's new movie was instantly flooded with the pages of major websites and media.

Of course, ordinary netizens are very excited and looking forward to it, and they all hope that Zhao Xing's movie can be completed and released soon.

And some film and television stars who just learned the news naturally regretted it, and urged the company to contact Zhao Xing to see if they could mix in a role, even if they didn't even want a salary.

Just when China was surging in China and talking about Zhao Xing's new movie, Zhao Xingzheng, who was in the United States, was receiving various film and television stars from Huaxia in the hotel with a smile on his face.

The number of these stars is not large, only a dozen, but they include stars from the inland of China, Taiwan Island and Xiangjiang in China.

Except for a few who were personally invited by Zhao Xing, the rest belonged to favors.

Among them, there are not only king-level actors like Liu Dehua, but also some second-tier stars, and the positions where these people sit are also very interesting, they are all around Liu Dehua, like stars and moons.

This can also show Liu Dehua's status among these people.

After saying hello to these stars, under the warm compliments of these people, Zhao Xing sat on the main seat.

After greeting these people for a while, the dishes were served one after another.

Don't underestimate the table culture of Chinese people, although some people and Zhao Xing are only meeting for the first time, but with the passage of time, everyone has gradually become acquainted, and some people frequently toast to Zhao Xing.

In this regard, Zhao Xing naturally did not refuse, after all, it is not easy to gather many Chinese people here in a foreign land, not to mention that these people are about to star in their own "The Matrix", which can be regarded as their own people.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, at the request of these people, Zhao Xing also told them the general structure of his new movie "The Matrix".

The more they listen, the brighter their eyes become, especially when they hear that it is an action movie, a person's eyes are even more excited, after all, they also know that the popularity of action movies is much more than ordinary movies.

Among them, the happiest is Liu Dehua, at the moment, Liu Dehua smiled at Zhao Xing and said: "Director Zhao, how much do you think the box office of this new movie can reach?"

Liu Dehua seemed to be joking, but it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Feeling the eager gaze of these people, Zhao Xing certainly knew their thoughts, and said with a smile at the moment: "As for the box office, no one can say for sure if it is not released, but I think it should not be less than the "Fast and Furious" series."

Hearing Zhao Xing's words, these people's eyes lit up again, without him, Zhao Xing's words had already given them a reassurance, after all, Zhao Xing's estimated box office, according to Zhao Xing's previous estimates, was only high and not low.

With the bottom in his heart, everyone's interest rose again, and Zhao Xing didn't know how much wine he was poured in, in short, in the end, Zhao Xing didn't know how he went back to the room.

The next day, when the early morning sunlight poured into the bedroom, Zhao Xing slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the unfamiliar room of the hotel, a wry smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Xing's mouth, and after scolding these people for a few words, Zhao Xing got up and washed up.

With the Chinese actors in place, it also indicates that Zhao Xing's "The Matrix" is about to start.

The time came to more than ten o'clock in the morning, and under the convening of Zhao Xing, a group of people came to the filming site of "The Matrix".

And at this time, some actors in the United States are already waiting where.

Looking at the mighty Chinese cast, these American actors suddenly showed a strange look on their faces, although some American actors looked down on Chinese actors, but they did not say anything to mock, after all, they also knew that the investment and director of this drama were all Chinese, and they didn't want to lose this hard-won job.

Under Zhao Xing's introduction, the Chinese actors and American actors met, but after all, only a few can speak English, so even if Zhao Xing introduced, Zhao Xing could feel the estrangement between the two sides.

In this regard, Zhao Xingzai had no choice but to do anything.

Zhao Xing did not make a big splash at the opening ceremony of "The Matrix", but simply held a worship ceremony for the crew, and the filming officially began.

Because "The Matrix" is basically all special effects, its filming location is not large, and it is basically in the studio.

Because they are all old actors, the filming went very smoothly, especially Liu Dehua's performance, which made Zhao Xing's eyes shine, obviously before filming, Liu Dehua did his homework.

The first day of filming lasted until 6 o'clock in the evening, not that Zhao Xing didn't want to strike while the iron was hot, but that the American worked only eight hours.

If Zhao Xing didn't want to get into trouble by himself, then he would have to compromise.

Zhao Xing encountered this situation when filming "Fast and Furious", and after scolding the damn "capitalism" again, Zhao Xing reluctantly announced the end of the filming.

……

Unconsciously, more than a month has passed, and with the hard work of many actors, the filming has gone very smoothly, and more than half of the shooting has been completed.

Just when Zhao Xing was about to make persistent efforts to continue filming, an invitation letter from "Oscars" disrupted Zhao Xing's plan.

This is the invitation letter sent by "Oscars" to Zhao Xing, who was shortlisted for three nominations for "Oscars" with the "Fast and Furious" series, namely Best Film, Best Director and Best Screenplay.

These three shortlisted awards can be regarded as a weighty award in the "Oscars".

Of course, Zhao Xing doesn't think that he will win these three awards, after all, for the local "Oscars" in the United States, Zhao Xing has always been an outsider, and this situation is xenophobic, even "Oscars", which can be called the heaviest award in the world film industry, is not uncommon.

However, even so, Zhao Xing has a reason why he must go.

I know that I am unlikely to win, but what if I do win?

Also, Zhao Xing is still very interested in "Oscars", after all, this is Zhao Xing's ultimate dream, even if he can't win the award at that time, it's not bad to feel it.

Fortunately, "Oscars" is three weeks later, although this time is a bit tight for Zhao Xing, but if the filming is stepped up, it will be enough.

Therefore, under Zhao Xing's deliberate acceleration of the pace, the entire "Matrix" crew began filming more quickly, even if some American actors complained, they remained silent under Zhao Xing's generous overtime pay......
