Hearing that he didn't want Jim Carrey to quit filming, Zhou Shaoming's hanging heart was put down, he touched his chest exaggeratedly, and said with a smile: "I'm scared to death, it turns out that this is such a thing, you also joined in the shooting, I just lack the image of a rock singer who can perform on the street." ”

"Oh? So, are you officially inviting me to join the filming? Excuse me, Zhou, how much is my salary? After listening to Zhou Shaoming's words, Avril looked at Zhou Shaoming with a narrow face and said slowly.

"I'm very generous, what was your salary in the spring of the last cattle herding class? I tripled! Zhou Shaoming fought back without showing weakness.

This time Avril couldn't stand it, and shouted with her teeth and claws, "What! I'm only worth the price, you only gave me $200,000 last time, and now it's only $400,000 even if it triples, I'm a superstar now! You bad guy, I'm going to go back and tell Everea not to go to the shoot now. ”

This time, it was Zhou Shaoming's turn to be anxious, and he hurriedly filled the smile of Grandma Wolf, and said flatteringly: "My little rock princess, I know it's wrong, you let me go." ”

"Humph! Then you say, how much do you pay me? Avril put her hands on her waist like a queen.

"Okay, how about $3 million?" Zhou Shaoming weakly quoted a price. This is already very high for just making a cameo and showing your face.

But compared to Avril's worth of the world's top rock stars after she spread her wings and flew high, 3 million is not much, not to mention that Avril was just joking with Zhou Shaoming, and she didn't really plan to ask him for money.

"Okay, that's it." Avril said with a wicked grin.

"Okay, okay, you two don't make trouble, rest early, most of the things are done now. Prepare for a while longer. Filming is about to begin. Christina said with a smile.

Whenever this week, Shaoming and Avril start to quarrel. It's all Christina who is a peacemaker, and unconsciously, the docile Christina seems to be used to this kind of life, although Zhou Shaoming and Avril are very close. But it seems that it is indeed the relationship between brother and sister, so the tight strings slowly relax, and it is not strange.

"Then again, where did our family's prosperity go? Why haven't I seen it lately? Zhou Shaoming asked suddenly.

"It's in my room. I've been hanging out with Everea for the past few days, and Iverea has been giving her a lot of things to eat, so Wangcai is very clingy to her. Avril said nonchalantly.

Zhou Shaoming shook his head helplessly, and said helplessly: "This guy, where is there really meat." ”

Hearing this, Avril and Christina couldn't help but laugh.

Zhou Shaoming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the preliminary work has been completely over, and what he has to do now is to get ready to start shooting. As for what difficulties will be encountered in the future, Zhou Shaoming is not sure. But he's ready.

Fighting！ ――

On the Internet, on entertainment forums, fans across the United States naturally began to pay attention to any detail of this show, any rumors that were revealed intentionally or unintentionally, this is known as the first zombie TV series in history under the light of director Smith Chow, which makes everyone full of expectations.

Will the subversive graphic performance of "Resident Evil" carry over to "The Walking Dead" on the small screen? Will it maintain the old way of winning with the impact of the picture and the thin connotation of the plot? And if its director is not Smith Chow, who will it be? Who will be the hero and heroine in the play?

Wow, that's a lot of imagination.

"I bet the Walking Dead must be visually exploding, and the plot is pale as a piece of paper! That's what Smith is used to on Mondays! ”

On the Yahoo Entertainment forum, user Aofeci said this, unable to hide a trace of distrust of Zhou Shaoming.

"It's a very irresponsible bet, it's just to attract the attention of netizens, Smith Chow has never let us down, I'm sure his TV series will also shock the whole United States, and after the release, there will be a large number of people whose faces will be red and swollen, believe me, Mr. Orfee is the same!"

Soon, some die-hard fans of Smith Week retorted and followed under Aofe's post, doing their best to mock it.

And Zhou Shaoming is as confident as ever, in an interview with Yahoo Entertainment media, he said with a firm look in his eyes: "Lovers of zombie movies don't have to worry about this problem, as a supernova film that has always led visual effects, we must insist on bringing the audience immersive, and far beyond the imagined story scenes, and the plot of The Walking Dead is quite rich and exciting, I want to say that the review for this movie is only four words: exciting!" If you don't believe it, then keep looking forward and wait for another surprise! ”

When the reporter asked Smith Zhou what level and number of viewers he hoped to reach for this TV series, Zhou Shaoming began to slowly restrain his confident tone, which made people say that he was arrogant, and said very mysteriously: "I am responsible for bringing good movies and good TV series to the audience, and the rest will be decided by the audience, I personally have high expectations for this TV series, but everything is still up to the audience!" ”

Zhou Shaoming's words surprised the audience, but also whetted their appetite, and Zhou Shaoming's busyness in the past few days has achieved good results, and the overall structure of "The Walking Dead" has been completed.

The most important directorship was given to Ernest, who was the director of the walking dead in the original time and space? Dixon, who has directed many TV series and has been in charge of the camera since 1992, has quite a lot of experience, Zhou Shaoming has a good impression of him, and he decided to let him direct the first work of Supernova Pictures.

And the actor in the play, Rick, Zhou Shaoming did not choose anyone else, it was played by Andrew? Andrew Lincoln (Andrew Lincoln) British actor. Born on September 14, 1973 in London, England, he is only 29 years old now, and he is a very young actor.

Through makeup, Andrew will age a lot and will still maintain the classic image of future generations.

But in this TV series, Zhou Shaoming did not completely follow the arrangement of later generations, the young and beautiful girl screaming and outlaw in the bloodthirsty zombies is the revelation of the girl in red in "Resident Evil".

Therefore, the girls or women in the original play will be top-notch, sweet and lovely, and actresses with their own characteristics, which will make the young people who love zombie movies, especially the boys in the main viewership group, boil their blood.

Sufficient funds have been put in place, and the director has been found, except for Zhou Shaoming, who has designated the leading actor Andrew, and the characteristics of other actors, the others are left to Ernest? Dixon arrangement.

He was a director himself, and he knew that the director would combine his own specific selected roles, so he didn't force Ernest? Dixon wants to invite this and that, but he just uses someone without suspicion and lets him arrange it.

The common practice of American TV dramas is to shoot one episode a week, and then decide whether to continue or adjust the investment according to the ratings, but Zhou Shaoming did not use this method, he just asked Ernest? Dixon filmed the fifteen episodes of the first season within half a year, and the requirement was to do it carefully, give him enough time to adjust the role, and better run-in, Zhou Shaoming doesn't have to worry about the ratings of this TV series at all, not to mention that the current Walking Dead is not as good as later, it will definitely set off a frenzy again-

Dealing with other things in Supernova Pictures, the actors of "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" are in place, and all the preparations for filming are ready, Zhou Shaoming did not do too much publicity, so he focused on filming.

But before that, there was another thing that was arranged by Zhou Shaoming in advance, and a biography was officially published in an American publishing house.

The promotion of this biography is only one sentence: "The original book of Smith Chow's latest movie!" ”

And the name of this biography is called "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", and the author is naturally Chris? Gardner.

When Zhou Shaoming met him before, Chris had the idea of publishing a biography, and after getting Zhou Shaoming's affirmation, Chris returned home and began to write this biography of himself.

Because it was all about himself, Chris wrote it very smoothly, so it didn't take long for this biography of the same name as the next movie of the father of chainsaws to officially meet the audience.

Some moviegoers bought the book as soon as possible, and many bookstores in California cities ran out of stock, forcing publishers to print more books overnight to replenish the supply.

The success of the biography was what Chris expected, and he originally tried to write a biography with the mood of wanting to write down the story, but he didn't expect it to cause such a big reaction.

Many readers were moved by the sincere father-son relationship in the book, and even wanted to see for themselves what kind of character this legendary father was.

On the other hand, readers who have read this book are all overwhelmed, clamoring to watch a movie one by one, and clamoring for the father of chainsaws to finish filming quickly.

And seeing Zhou Shaoming, who had a very good publicity effect, naturally started filming as soon as possible.

Within a week of the publication of the biography of "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", the film officially began filming.

The filming location was chosen in San Francisco, which was also the original Chris? The city where Gardner is located.

"Cameras in place, props in place, personnel OK!" At the shooting scene, the staff shouted one after another.

It's a pity that the scene was just laid out, but now only Jim Carrey was standing alone, and Everea didn't know where to go. (To be continued.) )
