The time soon came to mid-April 1999, and the filming of "The Matrix" was going on in an intense and orderly manner, and Chen Tiandu himself did not seem to be complacent about the Academy Award at all, and he was still in a good mood with the crew, shooting for up to eight hours a day.

If possible, he would prefer to be filmed non-stop for 12 hours. It's just that in that case, the Hollywood Screen Actors Guild will probably take him to court. Moreover, the overtime pay of employees is not a small amount.

The internal scenes in the matrix space have been completed, and the scenes in the real world are even more precarious.

"The searchlight is ready, the light group mobilizes the brightness of the light, simulates the normal daylight brightness, and aligns it with the operating table!"

Holding the guide microphone and shouting to the light, Chen Tiandu looked to the other side and raised the guide microphone again, "The props team has handled the reflector, and the rope that controls the shaking of the props is well hidden, I don't want to see him exposed in the camera." Photography: Adjust the focal length of the lens and don't let the walls appear in the lens! Also, whose coffee is that, take it quickly! ”

Chen Tiandu found an unknown object with sharp eyes and shouted loudly.

An negligent makeup artist rushed into the venue, took the coffee cup away, and apologized, "I'm sorry, my responsibility." ”

skillfully gave orders again and again, directing the entire crew to move.

Because it was a finale scene, Spielberg was present, holding his arms to see Chen Tiandu commanding Ruoding. Chen Tiandu's role as a director is undoubtedly qualified, and the entire crew moves quickly under his command.

After more than half an hour of busyness, the scene set ended, and an exquisite operating table in the spaceship. The heartbeat circuit diagram is placed on one side and the hospital bed is placed next to it. Chen Tiandu was lying on it, surrounded by Kate, Lawrence, and the only living teammate in the spaceship, Tank. The makeup artist was still combing Kate's hair, and the powder makeup was constantly smoothing out the makeup on her face.

Finally, after the makeup artist checked the final touch-ups, he left the scene satisfied.

"Attention units, the last scene, ready to shoot!"

"The lights are on, the props are in place, the director, can we start?"

Chen Tian didn't answer, he held the guide tube and smiled, not too strict, "Don't be too nervous, guys." Since it's the last shot, it's all the more important to relax, we have time. ”

There were a few more chuckles at the scene, and the atmosphere was a little lively, but still not forgetting the tension.

He turned his head and stretched out his palms to Kate and Lawrence, "Guys, it's the last shot, do you want to give a high-five?" ”

"Bang bang." The three of them slapped their palms on Chen Tiandu's hands and smiled at each other.

Chen Tiandu nodded with satisfaction, signaled that he could start, and then closed his eyes and lay on the operating table.

"Ready, ready, final act, action!"

With a command, photographer Aiman pushes the camera to control the lens, controlling the distance and proximity of the lens. This scene is filmed of Neo falling into the matrix world and escaping after defeating Smith, but unfortunately Smith can't be killed. At the last moment, he shot Neo, who lay on the hospital bed and shook a few times, simulating the realistic reaction of being shot, and then remained motionless, his face as white as paper.

The heart rate graph on the heart rate indicator is also starting to turn into a line.

"Not good!" Lawrence's nervous and worried expression came alive.

Ayman controls the camera, and the camera is firmly focused on Lawrence's Morpheus. A close-up of the tank behind him nervously looking at the field, his eyes full of exhaustion, anxiety, and worry!

There were some "blood stains" on the corners of his mouth and body, and his spirit was a little trance. And Morpheus, played by Lawrence, is even more tortured, his lips are chapped, and his face is vaguely tired.

"Stop!"

Confused, everyone looked up at the director's seat, where Spielberg was talking to McConway.

Chen Tiandu raised his head, "What's wrong?" ”

"The light, the light is too bright, pay attention to the brightness." This time it was Spielberg who spoke, and Chen Tiandu lay down again with confidence. Turn it on again after a few moments.

The prop master in the rear gestured, and the inside of the ship sparkled with electric sparks, and the outside was being invaded by mechanical squid. But they can't launch electromagnetic bombs, because Neo is still in the Matrix world.

Aiman shook the camera slightly, creating the feeling that the ship was shaking. Under the control of the prop master, the items fell down one after another, ping pong, a busy and noisy scene.

Trinity looked sad and lowered her head to hug Neo, who had stopped her heartbeat, tears rolling in her eyes, "Neo, I don't have anything to be afraid of. The prophet told me that whoever I would fall in love with, the one I fell in love with, was the Savior! So you know what, you're not going to die. You won't, because ...... I love you. Do you hear me, I love you! ”

With that, she leaned over and gently kissed Neo on the lips.

During the filming process, Chen Tiandu pointed out Kate's acting skills many times, and now she has already played the role of Trinity, which makes men embarrassed when it should be cool, and beautiful when it should be tender.

"Thorn la click" electric sparks splashed everywhere, and in the behind-the-scenes production, there will be mechanical squid infrared cutting rays scurrying around.

Spielberg sat behind the monitor and stared at the camera carefully, his right hand subconsciously rubbing the beard on his chin.

"It's time for Chen Tiandu to react."

McCoway nervously watched the development of the scene, and Kong Yiji, who was sitting on the side, also watched the camera with attention.

"Ahh

Neo's body, which had been suspended, suddenly shook, like a drowning man, and he took a quick breath of air. "It's time for Neo in the matrix space to come back from the dead." Spielberg thought, motioning for Ayman's camera to push forward. Aiman hurriedly captured the expressions of Kate, Lawrence, and Tank.

Kate's tears of excitement finally fell, "Wake up at last, Neo." ”

Lawrence was also shocked, and suddenly looked back at the heartbeat, and the straight line began to beat again. And on the computer, a green subtitle also fell quickly.

Tank: "What happened?" ”

Lawrence: "He's the Savior!" ”

……

Finally, at the critical moment, Lawrence pressed the launch button of the electromagnetic bomb, and Neo woke up and met Trinity's eyes.

“cut！”

After the last shout, Chen Tiandu walked behind the monitor and watched all the shots. Talking to Spielberg again, everyone watched them talk, waiting in place for orders. They couldn't hear what the two were talking about, only that Chen Tiandu kept talking, and Spielberg nodded from time to time and spoke occasionally.

In the end, Chen Tiandu stood up, waved the guide microphone, and shouted excitedly, "Finish!" ”

Dozens of staff members present immediately cheered after hearing Chen Tiandu's words. All the crew and leading actors laughed and cheered and applauded, Niu Yingying jumped up with cheers and threw a piece of clothing into the sky.

Kate also went straight to Chen Tiandu, and the two hugged each other, everyone hugged each other, cheering together for months of hard work, celebrating the birth of a movie.

Chen Tiandu's second film, "The Matrix", was finally completed after five months of filming.

"Everyone's worked hard!"

Chen Tiandu carried the lead microphone and turned up his voice to the maximum, "In the past few months of working with everyone, I have had a very fulfilling and happy life, and the most important thing is that with our joint efforts, Hollywood has another classic." Yes, I'm proud to have been a part of this film. In August, after August, we will let the whole world know that another classic is born in our hands! ”

That night, the crew held a finale banquet at the hotel.

"Hugo, Lawrence, thank you for your hard work. I've been working with you for so long, and I have a lot of requests, thank you for not complaining! Chen Tiandu smiled and hugged Kong Yiji, McConway, Spielberg and several directors and production crew warmly for a while, and then squeezed out of the crowd to greet Hugo Weaving and Lawrence.

The two smiled, and Hugo Viven said: "Chen, the director's request for more is a manifestation of excellence, you are a good actor and a good director, and it is very pleasant to work with you." Hopefully, the film will go well, then there will be more to look forward to in the sequel. ”

"Hehe, there will definitely be!"

They all signed a three-part contract with Chen Tiandu directly, so they naturally knew that this was a series. But there are also conditions, if the first part is not successful, the sequel naturally does not need to be mentioned. smiled: "Trust me, there will be a sequel soon, you will be proud to take on this drama!" ”

The crew will not be disbanded for the time being, especially the photographer, props, and lighting, and they will also cooperate with post-processing. In the process of post-editing, if there are some deviation shots, goofs, etc., the leading actors must be called for reshooting.

"Kate, thank you!"

Kate cut her black hair, she dyed her black hair for filming, "It's okay, you've worked hard, it's good that it's finally over now." ”

The two had to say more, looked at each other and smiled, and couldn't help but kiss together, all without saying a word.
