Chapter Twenty-Seven: Opportunity Comes Inadvertently

"Life is so fragile, so fragile that it's frightening. When the bullet entered the skull, the blood had not yet splattered on the ground; When the blade was inserted into the chest, the heart was still dilating and twitching, and the life was gone, and the traces left behind were only as light as the water stains left on the hands after the water slid through the fingers. Stephen spent twenty-five minutes forcing people to accept the shock - people in war are like insects and ants under their fingertips. ”

The filming of "Saving Private Ryan" is still ongoing, and Chen Tiandu has been given more opportunities to express himself.

These were not the things he actively fought for, and Spielberg was not particularly interested in a particular person. In addition, the crew members are all elites, and they will not favor one over the other. It's just that after comparing the work ability of several other people in the director team, he has to admit that Chen Tiandu, a young man, has a very set of skills, and he has made rapid progress. The most important thing is that every time Chen Tiandu shoots a picture, it perfectly fits what he thinks, and sometimes even he has to wonder if there is such a thing as a bosom friend.

Tom Hanks recovered, and although Chen Tiandu's massage played a small role, he successfully narrowed the relationship with the actor, and he would call him every time he went out for a drink.

There is a leading actor in the crew, and his position is more stable. What's more amazing is that this young man can not only have a good relationship with the leading actors, but also get along with the group performances, and he has become the most popular person in the crew.

But Chen Tiandu doesn't like to be in the limelight, most of the time, he will walk around the crew with a small notebook and ask some questions to the masters of various positions. Lighting, photography, props, special effects, etc., the seniors generally will not refuse in the face of a studious young man who earnestly asks for advice.

He doesn't look like a screenwriter or assistant director, but like an intern from the crew. But when there is a need, he can do it better than anyone else, and he never makes a mistake. That's where Spielberg reassures him. For some of the tasks he couldn't go to in person and needed an assistant to complete, the first name that popped into his mind would be Sansmas-Chan.

Chen Tiandu is also hungry for all kinds of knowledge, is there a better opportunity to learn than to learn from one of the best directors on the planet?

As the "quality assurance of World War II films", director Spielberg is obviously well aware of the mysteries of war epics. So although he burned a lot of silver, stubble after stubble, and splashed blood plasma, he didn't fall into the trap at all in the most brilliant part of the movie.

To add to the realism, Spielberg uses an almost documentary approach to shoot the first 25-minute scene of the film.

He didn't think about the storyline at all before filming, and after accepting Chen Tiandu's advice, he even took matters into his own hands, using a portable camera to track the soldiers on board 6 for close-up shooting. Spielberg really thinks that Chen Tiandu's method is great, he is really like a war correspondent who follows soldiers to the battlefield, and can realistically shoot the entire Deng 6 scene.

The span of the whole film is very large, but not a single second will be wasted in Spielberg's hands. As long as you seize the opportunity, you often only need three or two lens transpositions, and the application of many long and short lenses can be called a classic textbook!

A few vivid dialogues, a casual gesture, and a classic war swan song are all in one go.

"Just because war is a war of people, war movies are also movies of people."

The master reads this, so his films are living epics; Yongcai didn't understand it, so he could only play around blindly on the "shaking position" and "weapons and equipment".

Chen Tiandu was assigned another shooting task, a very important scene, the part where "the US military went to send a death notice to the family".

This scene could not be completed on the set of the Irish islands, and Spielberg couldn't do without it, so he handed it over to Chen Tiandu to be in charge. At this time, more than two months have passed since the shooting, and Chen Tiandu's status in the crew is undoubtedly highlighted, and even such an important plot has been handed over to him, which is the unique honor and trust of the entire crew.

Even the DreamWorks executives have become interested in him, a talented and capable young man, a young man who is very valued by Spielberg, is very worthy of being wooed.

Chen Tiandu took all the people and horses, and it took half a month to grind slowly and grind carefully to finish the shot in just a few minutes. But that didn't mean it was over, the film was sent back to Spielberg to see, and he nodded his head before it was finished. If it's not good enough, maybe Spielberg will do it himself.

In the dark screening room, there was silence, and the director team and production team were all crammed here. It was the content filmed by Chen Tiandu that was played.

The female workers in the logistics department kept typing out letters of condolence, and the dim shots and the rustling of the keyboard were the notices of the death of the soldiers. The attentive female worker suddenly appeared, and three letters were sent to the same place, and it turned out that the family had died, and only one of Ryan's siblings was left.

The general decided to bring Ryan back so that the wife could not be notified of the death of his last son.

In the part where the U.S. military went to deliver death notices to their families, my mother immediately collapsed to the ground when she saw two servicemen get out of the car and take off their hats. Chen Tiandu used the back to shoot, and he didn't even take pictures of his mother's face. recorded this moment in the dark, and the mother didn't even have a single line during the whole process, but a few shots were worth a thousand words. The cruelty of the war and the sadness of the mother who lost her son are vividly described.

When they saw this paragraph, Toby and the others couldn't hold back the urge to cry, not that they were too fragile, but that the director team was deeply immersed in the plot and understood what this paragraph was about.

Spielberg nodded, "Good as always, good work for Christmas." ”

"Thank you, director, what I should have done." Chen Tiandu smiled faintly.

In the past month, Chen Tiandu has not mentioned his "Sixth Sense" once, because he is still the assistant director of the crew and is still working.

Today's shooting is a shot of the death of a soldier, and the death of someone means that the scene is finished. Today is the finale scene of Owen Wade, the military doctor played by Giovanni Rubby, he drank bullets and cried blood at the radar station, and the soldiers ran over to press his constantly spurting belly, all of them looked painful, and Wade's words when he was dying were really unbearable: "Mom, Mom, take me home......"

Those who hear it are sad, those who see it are in tears, and whoever reads it will applaud this paragraph.

After filming this scene, the crew applauded in unison. But the leading actors were not very interested, and laughed a few times, and they were still immersed in the love just now.

Everyone expressed their understanding, and Spielberg ordered with a sad expression, "Filming will start after half an hour's rest, and everyone should not disturb the actors." ”

The next scene is the scene where Captain Miller quietly walks to the side and cries silently.

The actor suddenly beckoned Chen Tiandu to pass, "The silent crying written in your script here is a bit complicated, since it's far away, isn't it more shocking for me to cry?" ”

Chen Tiandu fished out his head, and he really couldn't say which was better to cry out loud or not to cry. After all, this is an Oscar winner, and his acting skills are there. The original version is a silent howl, but what if he cries out for the better? A little embarrassed, he said, "Idol, why don't I show you the scene of silent crying, I practiced it myself several times when I wrote it." ”

"Yo, I'm not afraid to try out in front of an idol." Vin Diesel came over and joked.

"Fuck off, your death scene is almost here, it's easy now, right?" Chen Tiandu didn't want him. This guy is naturally optimistic, he has his trademark bad smile everywhere he goes, and his voice is very thick, he looks particularly manly, and he is also popular in the crew.

"Okay, then you can try it out." Tom Hanks laughed.

Toby Hawkins in the distance also saw the situation here, holding his arms to watch the excitement. The director instructed not to disturb the actors, but Chen Tian was called by Tom Hanks, obviously not among them, but he was not easy to walk over intuitively.

Chen Tiandu responded, took off his coat to soak up his feelings, and then realized that his shirt was too white, and it still didn't fit the situation. Simply kneaded the kneading method and rolled in the trench on the spot, and the white shirt turned gray, "Hey, this is much more pleasing to the eye." ”

Vin Diesel raised his eyebrows, this informal personality is really good.

Because in the next play "The Sixth Sense", the most important emotion is the thick sadness that cannot be dissolved, so when Chen Tiandu practiced acting, he focused on practicing this aspect. His eyes are deep, and his expression of sadness is even more handy, and if he is given a cigarette at this time, the woman will definitely be fascinated by him. He knows that there is an actor named Tony Leung in Hong Kong, and he will be called the "King of Eye Acting" in the future, and Chen Tiandu thinks that he is not much worse than him.

But now sadness is obviously not enough, so Chen Tiandu struggled a few times, looked at a piece of paper in his hand and looked at it, and then suddenly his face was distorted and he began to cry, crying and trembling, but the strange thing was that there was no sound at the scene. Suddenly, he looked left and right for fear of being seen, and quickly wiped his face, stuffed the paper into his ** pocket, and stood up with the pain.

Tom Hanks and Vin Diesel applauded face-savingly, with the latter hippie saying, "It's not bad, it's just a little worse than me." ”

Chen Tiandu returned one of his middle fingers, "Come less, I'm much better than you." Idols, how's that? ”

"Great, I think I've got an idea." Tom Hanks laughed, "Do you want to act in the future?" ”

Vin Diesel also said: "It's as handsome as me, it's a waste if you don't act." ”

"Thanks for the compliment."

Chen Tiandu automatically ignored Vin Diesel's narcissism, nodded with a smile: "I do want to act, in fact, I want to direct and act myself, the same as Fan." The first film in my life has been prepared for a long time, the script and script have been prepared, and even the main actors are two-thirds together, so I am close to investing. Hollywood New Picture has my script in its library and has reached out to me to express interest. But I plan to show the script to director Spielberg after the filming of "The Soldier", if DreamWorks can invest it will be much more convenient, after all, I am a Chinese to the United States, I am not familiar with life, and I know the most people from this crew. ”

"Oh, did you bring your script? Show me. ”

"In the hotel, I'll send it to you when I get back." Chen Tiandu was a little excited.

Vin Diesel bumped him on the shoulder and teased, "Man, you're going to get there." As long as the script is not too bad and there are idols to help, investment will definitely be fine. ”

Chen Tiandu bared his teeth, and couldn't help but snicker, and lowered his voice and said: "You can't be happy too early, maybe the bamboo basket will be empty." ”

He knew that the opportunity he had been waiting for for months had come quietly and inadvertently.

He thought he would have to wait a few more months.
