Getting off the warm plane, a cold wind whistled by, Huo Que quickly stood up his collar, and Alice on the side put a towel on his shoulder without the slightest expression, this action was skillful as if he had been trained.

Of course, although Huo Que felt the warmth on his neck, he didn't feel the warmth in his heart, after this woman worked with Huo Que, I don't know if she was afraid that others would say that she was gossip about his uncle's light, or if she was born like this, she has always been cold, even when she saw her nominal boss Huo Que.

Although they haven't been together for a long time, Huo Que has been used to her appearance, but today's rather delicate behavior of hers made Huo Que a little surprised, of course, he would not be naïve to think that this woman would have any thoughts about him, this seems to be the job of the assistant, she is just doing her duty.

After all, the director is the head of a crew, and if he suffers from a cold, the entire crew will have to wait for him to get better before he can continue to work.

When they walked out of the airport, the Kirin staff in Illinois were already waiting outside, helping Huo Que and them carry their things into the car, and then headed towards the town.

Outside the car window, the goose-feathered snow was falling unscrupulously, and the snow had been covered with a thick layer, listening to the soothing music playing in the car, Huo Que fell asleep.

It took me almost three hours to drive to that town.

Huo Que got out of the car and found the results of the hard work of his employees, Christmas trees, colorful lights...... In short, it's like the Chinese New Year, but whenever you walk here and see the scene here, it's like going back in time to Christmas.

"Oh my God." Able sped down from the car: "Isn't it Christmas here?" Is Santa Claus going to give me a present tonight? ”

Like Chinese children celebrating the Spring Festival, this Western child is also full of expectations for their most important festival.

"As long as you're happy, it's Christmas every day, isn't it?" His father lovingly touched his head.

Huo Que smiled knowingly, and followed the manager in charge of arranging the site into a house, during which he found a phenomenon, there were many houses here, but he didn't see anyone.

The manager in charge of the on-site layout is called Colin Ulysses, he is a native of here, but he stayed in Los Angeles after going to college. He may have seen Huo Que's doubts, so he took the initiative to explain: "The environment here is very good, but it is too far away from the main city, and it is not very convenient to live, so only in the summer when some people who work outside will come back to spend the summer vacation, and at other times it is still very idle here." ”

The house that Huo Que and the others entered was a house with good decoration, if this house was placed a few kilometers away from a big city in China, it would be a luxury villa, Huo Que looked left and right, and asked, "This should be a place for us to live, right?" ”

Colin is a sincere person from his face, he always speaks with a smile, and when he heard the boss's question, he replied gently: "Yes, Mr. Huo, I grew up here, so the people around me also know some of them, I explained our intentions, they are all willing to rent the house to us, I consider that you have to work in it for several weeks, so I rented this house to you alone, of course, it did not exceed the budget." ”

Looking at the fact that this house has two floors and several rooms, Huo Que waved his hand and said, "It's too wasteful for me to live alone in this house, so let's call them all move in." ”

Colin frowned slightly, but the boss didn't say much after he spoke, if this house could accommodate a few more people, it would indeed be possible to rent one less suite.

In fact, there is one expense that is very large in movie expenses, and that is the cost of living.

How so? is like the film "Home Alone", if the protagonist is a big name and a very famous actor, then there is no doubt that it is absolutely impossible for him to share a suite with many people.

And Huo Que, as the soul of the whole movie, if he wasn't the producer, if he wasn't the boss, he would have enough reason to live in a house, and even offer to go back to Springfield, the capital of Illinois, every day to live in the presidential suite of a five-star hotel.

Big-name celebrities often quarrel with the producer because of this.

For example, when John Woo was filming "Red Cliff", Cao Cao in the film was originally played by Chow Yun-fat, but it was because of some of Chow Yun-fat's harsh requirements that the director had to give up Chow Yun-fat and chose Zhang Fengyi, who also had good acting skills.

Among them, Chow Yun-fat has a request about life, that is, he asks to prepare an RV for him alone on the set, what is it for? Because Mr. Chow Yun-fat loves cleanliness, the purpose of renting an RV is actually to take a shower.

After Huo Que put their things away, they followed Colin to the filming site.

In fact, Huo Que has not completely ignored this matter in the past few days, when arranging the shooting venue, Colin has taken no less than 300 photos back to the company, and if Huo Que is not satisfied with any place, he will immediately correct it.

The main filming location was Kevin McAllister's home, and Huo Que walked around it from beginning to end and was very satisfied. Of course, he did not restore the venue in the movie in his previous life, but conceived some things in it, and the whole room looked more compact and warmer.

The surrounding houses are also considered to be more useful props in Home Alone, and Colin also rented them together, of course, only for the exterior, because he will not go to the house, which will save a lot of money.

And the church was not here, but in a small town more than a kilometer away from here, and because there was only one scene inside, Huo Que didn't go to see it.

Everything is already in place, only the east wind is owed.

The Dongfeng that Huo Que wants is the key cinematographer and sound engineer for any film.

When filming "This Man is from Earth", he took these two positions part-time, because there was only one scene in that movie, and there were not many camera transitions. But not now, the shooting of this movie is very exquisite both from the angle and the profession, so Huo Que invited two professional photographers and sound recorders.

The position of recording engineer may be a little unfamiliar to domestic audiences, because many mainland movies choose post-dubbing in order to save money, which everyone will find when watching movies carefully.

There is a benefit to post-dubbing, which is to save money, after all, live recording is very demanding.

But the downside is also obvious, and that is unnatural.

Huo Que did not choose post-dubbing, but chose live recording, for expenses, he can save in many ways, but in terms of movies, it is absolutely not good, especially the details that will affect the effect of the movie.

The photographer and sound engineer were introduced by Alex, and they have both been responsible for the photography and recording of some large crews, and their experience must be quite rich.

However, they can't arrive today, because they are still in a drama that has not been completed, according to the plan, they will arrive tomorrow, and today Huo Que rushed over mainly to see the shooting scenes arranged here, don't all the staff come by then, but if the filming location is not done well, it will delay the filming schedule.

Huo Que walked around this quiet and peaceful place for a while, and then returned to the house where he lived, preparing to take advantage of this spare time to write the script of "Death is Coming".

When Laurie mentioned creativity to Huo Que just now, Huo Que suddenly felt a little afraid, because creativity is all thought up by people. If Laurie didn't know Huo Que, but went to another company, and when he came up with the movie idea he had in mind, it might be the "Death is Coming" in this world.

With billions of people, what kind of talent will there be? , no one can guarantee that some of them will not think of "Terminator", and they will not think of "Chainsaw".

So Huo Que had to hurry up and write some scripts, of course, he didn't write them and shoot them immediately, but he could register the copyright first, so that the classic movies in his mind would be guaranteed.

It's definitely tiring to do this, but young people, if you want to live a happy life in the future, you have to put in some effort, right?

Just when Huo Que turned on the computer and was about to write the script, Alex made a phone call, and as soon as the phone was connected, Huo Que felt the oppressive atmosphere on the microphone, and intuitively felt that something was wrong.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Alex didn't speak for a long time, Huo Que asked with a frown.

"The photographer and the sound engineer are not coming." Alex took a deep breath and said in a dull voice.

"What?" Huo Que slammed the table and bounced off the chair at once. Now that all the preliminary preparations for the movie are ready, just waiting for the sound engineer and cameraman, why can't you say that you won't come? Isn't this cut off from the food and grass for the besieging army?

Alex sighed, "I investigated, and it seems that the two of them did it on purpose, and the reason I guess has something to do with the Valentine family." ”

Alex's tone was apologetic, he knew how much the sudden change of hexagrams between the two had an impact on Huo Que and "Home Alone".

Huo Que raised his head and sneered, boundless hatred rose in his heart, the Valentine family's trick was absolutely amazing.

If Huo Que wants to find two suitable sound engineers and photographers in a short time, there is only one path to take, that is, to spend a lot of money to hire famous photographers and sound recorders, but with the Valentine family making a hindrance, which big-name photographer and recording engineer will come to serve Huo Que?

Newcomers please?

Are you kidding?

If the director is the soul of a movie, and the actor is the body of a movie, then the photographer is the eye of a movie, and the sound engineer is the mouth of a movie.

The eyes are expressive, the mouth is affectionate, and all are indispensable.

It would be too risky to have a newcomer serve Huo Que, a movie that will make more than $800 million in money.

Huo Que hung up the phone, covered his face with his hands and took a deep breath, his mind was a mess.

"Bang Bang ......"

There was a knock on the door.

"Please come in." Huo Que said listlessly.

The door opened, and Laurie walked in from outside, and when he saw Huo Que looking so sluggish, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

"Mr. Huo, what's wrong, is something wrong?"
