Chapter 277: Emergency!

The biggest attraction of "The Day After Tomorrow" is the wonderful natural disaster pictures, which it tries to show and illustrate: if the greenhouse effect and the trend of global warming continue to develop, it will inevitably lead to major disasters on a global scale, which is undoubtedly a background with a very realistic sense of crisis.

This far-reaching film mobilizes almost all the elements of a water disaster movie, the flood in "Heaven and Earth" turned into a monstrous wave after the glacier melted and poured into New York City, and the hurricane in "Tornado" became more powerful this time, setting off cars and houses so commonplace that it even tore the whole of Los Angeles apart.

In this film, the most shocking thing is the extremely amazing and realistic special effects. A thrilling catastrophe that has never been seen or never seen before in history is truly unfolding before our eyes this time. In the film, the most classic picture is the picture before and after the 'quick freeze' in New York City, the sky-high waves surging into New York City, the Statue of Liberty being submerged, the alleys sinking in the ocean in an instant, and the 10,000-ton giant ship being washed into the buildings. In an instant, the temperature plummeted, and the vast ocean of New York City became a frozen world again, leaving only the head of Lady Liberty on the vast ice field, symbolizing that most of the cities of human civilization are buried in ice and snow forever. Humanity and the world that humans have created seem so small in the face of nature.

Although the investment in this film is as high as 125 million, and it will cost an extra $20 million to shoot a year in advance, Zhou Shaoming threw the check of $150 million in front of Stella Ben without blinking an eye, which comes from the confidence in Ben's ability to take charge of the camera, and also from the super high box office of $186 million in the North American market and $560 million worldwide in the visual blockbuster!

"Zhou ...... Your trust in me is too heavy, so heavy that I can't afford it......" Ben looked at Zhou Shaoming with a smile on his face gratefully, and didn't know where to start with a thousand words. It's just hard to breathe. Intermittently expressing his concerns.

"Everybody's growth. All of them need to work on their own. I see your efforts, and I absolutely believe that you can make this movie well. The script has been handed to you, and you can get to work on it right away, backed by supernova pictures' powerful VFX support. I hope you can make a disaster movie that will make a sensation in the world! Zhou Shaoming encouraged Ben with fighting spirit, until his eyes also revealed a feverish light.

"Thank you, thank you for giving me confidence, I will do my best to make this movie!" Ben bowed deeply to Zhou Shaoming. , an originally unknown assistant director, finally got the directing rights of a super blockbuster, and he clearly knew who brought him all this.

"We are all people full of dreams, since we have dreams, let's chase them! It's January, and I hope that "The Day After Tomorrow" will be released during Halloween, and there are almost ten months left, and then, won't Frank still have to release Chainsaw IV? Crush him again! Zhou Shaoming smiled. For this person who has followed him since he crossed over, what else is there to worry about?

Ben resolutely rushed out. Zhou Shaoming's entrustment made him feel that the task on his shoulders was very heavy, and time was precious, and he could not waste it anymore.

Zhou Shaoming sat on the sofa relaxedly, just leave the matter of "The Day After Tomorrow" to Ben to worry about, as long as he gives him the best resources, everything is OK, the visual effects director and visual effects team have given him the Oscar level, there is no reason why this disaster film that subverts imagination and shocks eyeballs is not successful.

Back to the present, the classic American drama "The Walking Dead" and the acquisition of Marvel and Blizzard have become more important and urgent things at present, but the most critical thing is that Will Smith and his son Terry starred in "When Happiness Knocks on the Door".

But the key thing is that Terry, the little Zhengtai, doesn't want to appear in the movie at all-

"Smith Chow, I'm sorry to give you this call, I talked to Terry for a long time, and he didn't want to be in a movie and just wanted to do what he wanted to do. I think it's me, the father, who has too little communication with him. But I respect his thoughts, and I'm really sorry I can't fulfill my promise. I'm not going to make movies anymore, I want to get along with Terry, family and kids are the most important things for me. ”

Listening to Will Smith's call, Zhou Shaoming was very helpless, but what else could he do when he had no choice?

"Well, I hope to have the opportunity to work with you, please believe that you are the best actor in my mind!" Zhou Shaoming accentuated his tone, relieving Will who was full of guilt.

"Thank you, when I repair my relationship with Terry, next time, I will definitely cooperate with you!" Will thanked him repeatedly, after all, he had promised Zhou Shaoming before, but now he didn't do it as planned.

hung up the phone, Zhou Shaoming sighed, the protagonist of the original version resigned from the starring role, where should he go to find someone who can replace Will?

Holding his head and thinking painfully for a long time, Zhou Shaoming thought of Jim Carrey inexplicably, he sat up straight and waved his fist excitedly, but soon became depressed, because Jim Carrey's relationship with Everea was worse, and it was very likely that like Will, in the end, it was a bamboo basket for nothing.

Ran home in a hurry and found Jim Carrey who was sleeping, this guy couldn't control his desire to perform as soon as he saw the script when happiness knocked on the door, and tried his best to say that this script was great, and he had a great desire to let himself play, when Zhou Shaoming wanted him to play Gardner, he excitedly hugged Zhou Shaoming and kept jumping, happy.

"Haha, Zhou, you won't be disappointed, I will definitely play this role well!"

"You let go first! I tell you, don't be happy too early, it's okay to play the lead role, and Everea must also participate, you will play the real father and daughter on the movie screen! Zhou Shaoming pursed his lips and tried his best to break free from Jim Carrey's bear hug, giving him the most difficult task.

"What? Want Everea to star? Oh my god, she won't listen to me! Jim Carrey's eyes widened in horror and said in a depressed voice.

"I'll figure out a way to do this, your task now is to calm down and give me a good experience of the script, of course it's a black man in this script, and it's a son instead of a daughter, but it's okay, I'll revise it!" The script changed its draft three times, which made Zhou Shaoming speechless.

"Okay, I hope Everea will listen to you......" Jim Carrey took the script very obediently and ran to the side to grind. And Zhou Shaoming shook his head with a wry smile and dialed Jessica's phone.

Calling Jessica is naturally fulfilling his promise that day, since Will will no longer appear and Jim Carrey will be on top, then it is not appropriate for Gardner's wife to find a black actor in the play, so Zhou Shaoming immediately thought of Jessica Alba, a chocolate beauty.

"Harrow, Director Smith Chow, why are you calling me so late? Could it be that Christina is not there? Jessica's coquettish voice came from the microphone, warm and slightly seductive.

"HOHO, SHE'S UPSTAIRS, PLAYING WITH JIM CARREY'S DAUGHTER, I HAVE SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO DO WITH YOU!" The first half of Zhou Shaoming's sentence was also a joking tone, but in the back, it became serious.

Hearing his tone, Jessica couldn't help but get nervous, just like meeting the "playboy" Zhou Shaoming on the street that day: "What? Are you really, really looking for a movie? ”

"You're right, congratulations, fly to Los Angeles right away! We sign the contract! Zhou Shaoming laughed.

"Oh my God, is this true? Is this true? I'm not dreaming! Jessica was so excited that her voice changed a little.

"You'll understand when you come over, it's all true!" Zhou Shaoming smiled and said a few more words to Jessica, and then hung up the phone. Now that the cast has been determined, those important supporting roles have been implemented one by one, but before filming starts, there is still one more work to be done, which is also one thing that Zhou Shaoming has been thinking about countermeasures.

That is - to convince Everea to participate in the film shoot!

But in the face of that "problem girl", Zhou Shaoming had no good way, so he could only mobilize Christina and Avril, who had the best relationship with her, to persuade Evereya, if she went by herself, it would definitely not work.

At this moment, in the villa, Zhou Shaoming was looking at Avril and Christina with a serious face and said: "Evereya's problem is handed over to you, you must let her join the filming of the movie, otherwise, all the efforts you made before will be in vain!" ”

Seeing that Zhou Shaoming was so serious, Avril and Christina also realized the seriousness of the problem, and after half the salary, they nodded and said to Zhou Shaoming: "Don't worry, leave it to us, we will definitely let Evereya play." ”

With that, the two of them walked into Everia's room. Only Zhou Shaoming, who was full of anticipation, was left waiting outside.

Soon the voices of the three of them could be heard in the room, and it seemed that Avril and Christina were coaxing Ivorya. Zhou Shaoming couldn't hear what he was talking about.

After a while, Avril and Christina walked out of the room with smiles on their faces, and seeing the expressions of the two of them, Zhou Shaoming also knew that the matter must have succeeded. However, he still asked, "How is it, is Everea willing to join in the filming of the movie?" ”

Avril smiled and nodded, and then said: "Because you and Jim Carrey are not around, Everea is very cooperative, in fact, she still likes movies very much, it seems that there is Jim Carrey's genetics, but she also made her own requests." ”

"What is the request, is it to ask Jim Carrey not to join the filming of the movie? That's the end of it. Zhou Shaoming asked nervously.

Hearing this, Avril smiled and then said, "Okay, don't be so nervous, she just asked me to accompany her." (To be continued.) )
