Chapter 430: Sexy
Hu Yifei hung up Nina's phone, but remembered the "Vampire Diaries" and the "Twilight" movie that his company was preparing.
At present, the film director and screenwriter have been confirmed, and the male and female protagonists are being auditioned, and there is a lot of uproar in the whole circle. There are not 1,000 but 800 actors and actresses who came to apply, but no candidates have been determined so far.
Seeing that autumn was about to begin, Hu Yifei felt that he could be decisive.
"Galen, you're ready to go." Reggie shouted, waking up Hu Yifei, who was deep in thought.
Hu Yifei glanced at the set and nodded, "Let's start." ”
All day, even the whole month of August, Hu Yifei will spend his time in a busy situation, the filming of movies like "Transformers" is far more complicated than those independent films, and it is not the slightest sloppiness, and the early preparation is difficult, and the post-production must also fit the preliminary preparations, and any of the small mistakes may become a very serious problem in the shooting.
Although Hu Yifei no longer needs to do specific work such as making schedules and scene schedules, and the assistant director team and a strong team of producers are enough to help him complete it, Hu Yifei still has to review each studio, even if it is something he can't take care of, it must be looked at by Michael Bay, who is the producer.
Now that the decision has been made to let Michael Bay take over the sequel, it is best to let him integrate into the film from the first one, so as not to be too disjointed in the creation of the sequel later and create it alone.
When Erica Kardashian was there, she was also mainly assisting Hu Yifei's work. Because the film is a multi-party investor, the funds are controlled by a third-party guarantee company.
Third-party guarantee is a universal system in Hollywood, it can effectively curb some other ideas about money that many people in the crew inevitably have, all directors in Hollywood work under this system, Hu Yifei is no exception, in some ways, Hu Yifei is also a supporter of this system, and the films jointly invested by the family film industry and other film companies in the past have also used third-party guarantees.
Even if he cooperated with Warner Bros. before, Hu Yifei would not be so idiotic as to directly hand over the funds to the other party or the crew to control.
A mature industry will inevitably have a corresponding system as a guarantee.
"Erica, how are the preparations for the Twilight Strobe?"
In addition to filming, Hu Yifei also took the time to ask her about the preparation of her new movie.
Erica said: "It's not very optimistic, the casting is very controversial, and director Kathleen Hardwick and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg both have their own ideas, and I tend to be different. So everyone decided to interview for a few more rounds before finally deciding on the candidates for the male and female leads. ”
Melissa Rosenberg is a famous Hollywood screenwriter, screenwriter of the hit series "Bloodthirsty Forensics", and has won many Emmy Awards and Writers Guild of America Awards. The director chose Catherine Hardwick to be selected to shoot "Twilight", and her status as a female director helped a lot. Of all the female directors in the United States, Catherine's most famous film before her was the controversial film "Nativity"
This is the decision of the production team, and Hu Yifei has not asked too much since he has given up power.
He thought for a moment and said, "Go back and show me the information of the top few characters." ”
"Okay." Erica couldn't wait, "It would be nice if you were the author to determine this." After all, in everyone's mind, there is a Hamlet. ”
Hu Yifei smiled, "I'll only give you a reference, but I don't have much time to pay attention." ”
Erica was suddenly helpless, "When I meet a boss like you, I really don't know if it's the luck or misfortune of the employee." ”
Hu Yifei laughed and decided.
After "Inception" created the IMAX boom, IMAX now has a certain confidence, Hu Yifei continued to use this shooting mode when filming "The Dark Knight" and "Transformers", but the cameras are no longer provided for free, and the crew needs to pay relevant rental fees.
This is a very normal situation, there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world, and a business transaction is a business transaction after all.
And once the advantages of imaX technology are fully revealed, it is inevitable that many companies and films will follow suit, and it is no surprise that there are few imaX cameras in the world that are in demand.
After relaxing a little, Hu Yifei opened the folder again and continued to review the storyboard artwork to prepare for the next round of shooting.
"Scene 35, Act 18, start now!"
Among the high-rise buildings on the streets of Chicago, after hearing the sound of the field notes, Andrew Garfield, who had already prepared, immediately entered the state, took Alexandre Ambrosio's hand and began to run desperately forward, completely escaping with a 100-meter sprint, AA also looked back from time to time, as if something terrifying was chasing them behind them.
From time to time, several cars rumbled down the street from the top of the parking lot and smashed right next to them, causing AA to scream. When shooting, you must follow the predetermined route, otherwise you may be stoned to death.
“Cut!”
When the last prop cart fell from the sky and smashed behind them, the director's seat finally shouted to stop, and then a voice of praise came, "Good job, Andrew, AA, continue to maintain the current state." ”
Andrew Garfield knew who was speaking, so he quickly stood up and showed a sincere smile over there, "Thank you, director, I'll do my best." ”
AA let out a scream and squatted on the ground, and suddenly the whole crew looked over, "My leg is broken." ”
Hu Yifei left his seat and walked over to take a look, the people around him got out of the way, Hu Yifei squatted down and gently pinched the supermodel's calf. Because of wearing high heels for a long time, you don't ask how beautiful the model's legs are.
When I was shooting just now, because I wanted to pursue the beauty of the lens, AA was running with Andrew in high heels, and I was maybe too involved in the shooting. Now after shouting to stop, she couldn't help frowning, and she was about to cry in pain.
"Doctor!"
Hu Yifei saw her red and swollen calves, and hurriedly shouted. "You sit on the ground, don't squat, to prevent blood from accumulating on your calves."
AA sat down, Hu Yifei personally helped her sit down, lifted her legs, helped her untie her high heels and laces, and held her calf with his palm to check the injury. He was unintentional, just to prevent the actor from being injured too badly to affect the filming. Ambro Xiu's beautiful eyes couldn't help but glance at him, the corners of his mouth showed a seductive and aggrieved look, and he leaned on Hu Yifei quietly.
Hu Yifei was slightly flustered, Ambrosio was wearing a short skirt and a tight body shirt, sitting on the ground, and suddenly revealing the spring light in the short skirt. From his point of view, he saw it right.
In the face of such an angel supermodel, with a perfect face and sexy figure, it is fake not to be attractive. But work is work, and Hu Yifei doesn't want to cause more trouble. Countless staff members watched from the sidelines of the venue.
"I'm sorry, AA. I didn't know you were hurt. Andrew apologized apologetically, he heard the other party screaming when he was filming just now, and thought it was a natural reaction to filming.
"It's okay Andrew, I don't blame you. It's me who didn't pay attention. AA waved his hand and said, "Galen, I'm sorry, will I delay the filming progress?" ”
The doctor came, and Hu Yifei comforted: "Don't think about it, let's see what the doctor says first?" He stood up and patted Andrew on the shoulder and said, "Okay, Andrew, it's not your fault, you can also take a break." ”
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief, working with such a famous director, if there is no pressure or tension, it must be fake.
Although he is already familiar with Hu Yifei in private, Hu Yifei will not put up a fight for them, but as a billionaire director, it is inevitable that he will be nervous and make mistakes. Fortunately, the director's temper is not as big as his fame, and he will give a few words of guidance and encouragement from time to time, so that he gradually finds his current feeling.
Of course, AA and Andrew Garfield will not deny their hard work, and the role is actually not too difficult to play.
He has enough confidence in acting, and the biggest problem comes from these action scenes, since he entered Chicago to shoot, he has been on the run. There are still various obstacles to overcome during this period, and without using a stunt double, I really suffered a lot.
Back in the lounge area, a makeup artist came over to touch up his makeup, and Andrew Garfield asked the assistant on the crew to help him pull up his trouser legs. A large bruise appeared on the knee, which was left by the collision when the car had just rolled over.
However, he did not say anything, he knew very well that if he wanted to succeed in Hollywood, he had to seize every opportunity, and now is the most rare opportunity. AA is a woman, and it is normal for him to be hurt unbearably, and he, as the male lead, if he is also injured. The drama of the entire crew is bound to stop.
It wasn't what he wanted to see. (To be continued.) )
