In the crew, Jada Pinkett Smith, the wife of the famous black actor Will Smith, plays the role of Naibel in the movie. Just because there is a paragraph in the script that says, "Nabil has beautiful muscles when she pilots the spaceship", she decisively starts training before the others.

Pinkett-Smith believes that training will help her better in her role, "Nabiel cares a lot about her body, because her body is her capital, and her body is her tool. She undergoes the most rigorous training because her characters expand your imagination more than just physical movements. These actions create the soul of the character, the kind of soldier's suzhì, which is a display of strength for Nabier. So I started with weightlifting, and then I moved on to martial arts. In the end, my kicks were pretty good and fun. ”

It's hard to imagine that this woman has just given birth to Jaden Smith just over two years, and when filming "The Matrix", she was still pregnant with Will's female Willow, so the whole crew was very careful, and all her scenes were concentrated in a period of time.

So although she was trained very early, it was only now that she had a place to try, and while drinking a drink and walking by boredly, she happened to see Chen Tiandu soaking in a bathtub of ice, and she looked at him, as if to say, "What are you doing here?" ”

Chen Tiandu rolled his eyes and said, "Sooner or later, it will be your turn." ”

Then after the filming was completed on this day, Chen Tiandu had to call Will Smith, "Will." I'm sorry. Your wife's joints are swollen. My legs were all stiff, too. At this point, Jada finally knew what the ice was for.

Although the action scenes are very hard, the other actors have the same attitude, and Fishburne is very appreciative of the skill level of the martial arts instructors: "I think everyone should applaud and welcome Yuan Heping and his team into our film industry, they have been away from home for many years and helped us to complete the role beautifully," said Fishburne, "their professionalism." Their experience and the creativity they bring to this film is invaluable. Without their influence. The Matrix couldn't have been what it was now. ”

In the empty studio, there are pitch-black sets, and Chen Tiandu is standing there in the middle, surrounded by a circle of Hugo clones wearing black suits and white sensors on their faces, playing routine movements in the pale yellow light.

Around it are five digital cameras that capture his movements at various angles.

The crew is nervously completing their daily filming tasks, but during the awards season, as long as the Oscars don't end for a day, the crew can't really calm down, especially in the days after the Oscar nominations are announced on February 13.

"Infernal Affairs", which only won two insignificant awards at the Golden Globe Awards. It entered the Oscars and won six nominations in one fell swoop, including "Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Editing, Best Original Song, and Best Foreign Language Film". There is one less Best Actor than the Golden Globe Awards. But there was one more Best Editing, Selma Skuma, who was nominated for Best Picture and Best Picture.

The 73rd Academy Awards will be held on March 25, 2001 at the Holy Auditorium in Hollywood, California, USA, and the host of this year's award has long been confirmed to be the famous comedian Stephen Martin, who is hosting the Academy Awards for the first time, and he has been shortlisted for the Emmy Award.

Compared with the six nominations for "Infernal Affairs", another Chinese film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is even more exaggerated, ranking second with 10 nominations, second only to "Gladiator" with 12 nominations, and it is also the most nominated non-English-language film in the history of the Oscars.

The Los Angeles Times reported: "This is the second time that Christmas Chan has been nominated for the Oscar for Best Director, and when he was nominated for the Oscar two years ago, people used his youth as an excuse to greatly reduce his chances of winning, and that time he did not win." Two years later, he has already been nominated for the Osarca Best Director Award for the second time, and it is hard to imagine that he is only 26 years old this year. ”

is also 26 years old, which reminds people of Steven Soderbergh, who was known as a prodigy director before the year, who won the best picture at the Cannes Film Festival in 1989 with "Sex, Lies, and Videotape", and at the Oscars the following year, the 27-year-old prodigy was only nominated for Best Original Screenplay; In 2001, the 26-year-old Oriental director Christmas Chan was even younger than Steven, and had the same experience, having already won the Best Director Award at the Cannes Film Festival. ”

This Oscar was rated by the media as a showdown between the supernatural powers of the past and the prodigy of today. In the past, Shentong missed the Best Director statuette at the Oscars 11 years ago, and this wait is 11 years. Now, the new supernatural power is about to ascend to the throne, will he become an obstacle to the former supernatural power to fulfill his long-cherished wish for 11 years?

Now 38 years old, Steven Soderbergh is running for the Oscars this year with two films, "Never Compromise" and "Drug Network", of which "Drug Network" was shortlisted for the Best Director Award. Obviously, in terms of sympathy, Soderbergh is more favored, which is undoubtedly very bad for "Infernal Affairs".

A fact that worries fans even more, if Chen Tiandu misses the Oscar for Best Director again this time, will he have to wait until he is 38 years old to win the award?

-- That's really a sadness.

The Matrix's PR department spends millions of dollars a year, and it's used where it is. Today's Chen Tian is not as low-key as he was in the previous two years, he only cares about filming, and he gradually has some contacts in Hollywood. If two years ago, a nameless and moneyless Chinese came to Hollywood, who would care about you.

Now that the status of the boat is rising, these friends will also say a few words for him if they are asked about the best director when they are interviewed by the media, and this is enough. In addition, reports in major media magazines are essential, all of which are touting the hype, "Christmas Chan was nominated for the Oscars for the second time, and as a young man, his appearance is shocking. "It's time to test whether Oscar is old and dizzy. Putting aside the narrow view of age and qualifications, it is not novel for "Infernal Affairs" to win the best director, only those discriminators who make a fuss about skin will turn him away...... "This threat is too explicit, and it is estimated that a lot of money will be charged."

Of course, it is impossible to ignore the Lee case, which was nominated for best director at the same time, along with Ridley Scott ("Gladiator") and Stephen Dudley ("Dancing Life").

Time entered March, the promotion of "Fast and Furious" was in full swing, and the trailer of "Infernal Affairs 2: Ultimate Infernal" was also released. This time, Hong Kong audiences finally saw Li Ming and Chen Daoming, who had not appeared in the previous film.

Now that "Infernal Affairs" is competing for the Oscar in North America, it is heating up, and as the final chapter of the sequel, there is too much suspense to be left for the next one to unveil. The only thing that reassures fans is that the final chapter seems to be about the prequel and the sequel interspersed, because you can still see Chen Yongren wearing a black leather jacket with a small beard in the movie trailer.

On March 12, the nominees were busy filming at lunch, and did not appear.

Time has stepped into March, and the filming of "The Matrix 2 Reloaded" has basically ended, and only a few shots of Kate appearing remain. The filming of "The Matrix Revolution 3" is also nearly halfway through, because the final chapter of this series has changed the most, so Chen Tiandu chose to be very cautious.

He streamlined the huge and bloated parliamentary system in Zion and the scene of the battle between Zion and the mechanical squid, and used special effects CG technology to render a spectacular scene of hundreds of spaceships and countless mechanical squid fighting in the air. is similar to the battle scene in "Special Forces: Rise of the Cobra", as for the rudimentary mechanical armor in the original work, he threw it away directly after taking a look, and wasted another shot on it not far away.

“Action！”

As the days go by, spring temperatures in Los Angeles are the most suitable for activity, neither cold nor hot. Filming for The Matrix continues every day, except, of course, on weekends. The shoot was still in the matrix studio, and the crew was busy finishing all the shots of the interior set before moving the camera to the green screen stage.

Filmed as usual on this day, the crew filmed the more than a quarter of an hour-long heads-up scene in the finale.

Several sprinkler trucks were parked outside the crew and sprayed under pressure with special unkemps, creating a steady stream of water curtains. It's a sparring scene in the rain. Chen Tiandu and Hugo Vivian are extremely tired, especially in the rain scenes. Although the weather is not cold, anyone who sprays in the rain for hours will not be able to stand it.

Chen Tiandu kicked over, and Hugo Weaving was kicked and flew out against the norm.

This battle fought from the ground to the sky, and from the sky through several buildings, and the superman battle was not so destructive. Especially in the post-production of zuò, CG synthesis technology will be used to add a row of Hugo Weaving on both sides, all staring at him with cold eyes. That picture is intoxicating to think about.

"Ah sneeze~" Chen Tiandu couldn't help but sneeze and shivered from the cold.

“cut！”

The filming stopped immediately, and Niu Yingying hurriedly handed over a towel and asked him to wipe the water stains on his body. Chen Tiandu felt that he had a clear nose at this time, and sneezed several times in a row, and did not forget to rub his nose and look apologetically at Hugo who was pulled away by Weiya, "Sorry, I really can't help it." ”

"It's okay, you're sneezing, it can't be a cold." Hugo asked, "This water didn't feel cold just now, but now it's too cold, it's really unbearable." ”

Charles Rowan worried: "Then do you want to change the car of hot water?" ”

Chen Tian wanted to promise him, but reason made him shake his head, "Hot water in this kind of weather, no matter how you get it, there will be water mist, let's take a rest, endure it and pass." ”

Kong Yiji said: "The water temperature is reduced to about 35 degrees, which is exactly the same as the body temperature of the human body, and there should be no water vapor." I think it's better to give it a try, after all, this scene can't be won in a day or two. ”

Several director teams discussed the solution together, and at this moment, there was a sudden commotion from the rear. Chen Tiandu looked over in surprise, he remembered that he had a rule that the crew was not allowed to make noise. (To be continued......)
