Chapter 202: Choosing the Island (Chapter 6)
"Liu Tianwang said: The script has been discussed since last year!!"
"Liu Tianwang admits that he will play the leading role in the movie!!"
"Liu Tianwang said: It can definitely surprise everyone!"
"An idea that can be compared to 'Crossing the Stream'!!"
Soon what Liu Tianwang said to the reporters was reported, which surprised everyone who cared about this new movie.
"After Wang Shang has made so many movies and TV series, he finally started to use big stars!"
And those hundreds of millions of fans of Liu Tianwang are even more happy: "Andy, come on!" Strive to make a world-class movie! ”
"Boss, come on!!"
They cheered up their idols, and Wang Shang's gaze became more pleasing to the eye.
Just when the news of Liu Tianwang's cooperation with Wang Shang caused a fluctuation in the entertainment industry, Wang Shang made a phone call to Robert Downey Jr., who was on his honeymoon in France. When Wang Shang saw the mad scientist character at that time, he immediately thought of him.
By this time it was already dark in France, and Robert Jr. and his new wife had just returned to the hotel room to rest.
"Robert, do you have a schedule for May to December this year? There's a character here. ”
"Role?" Little Robert, who was still in the midst of sweetness, was suddenly confused.
Wang Shang quickly explained to him the mad scientist character in "Biochemical Apocalypse - Survival".
Hearing Wang Shang's introduction, little Robert's eyes became brighter and brighter: "Oh, thank you Wang for giving me this role, I like it, and it's very similar to Tony Stark in "Iron Man", I agreed to play it!" ”
"Don't worry, this movie is positioned in the North American market, and I am confident that it will be the next "Fast and Furious"!" Wang Shang said with a smile, unraveling the concerns in his heart.
The two sides had just finished the phone call, and Susan Levine, who had just taken a shower, asked happily: "Honey, is there a film company looking for you to make a movie?" ”
Little Robert excitedly picked up his wife: "Haha, the king has arranged a role for me, a role I like very much." ”
However, Susan Levine was not so excited and asked, "Wang? Isn't that going to China to shoot? ”
"Well, that's right, I've always wanted to go to Huaxia, but I haven't had time, or else...... My dear, should we go to China for our honeymoon and make a movie by the way? Thinking of this idea, little Robert was even more excited, and he couldn't help but hug Susan and turn around.
Although Susan Levine was very moved, she also asked worriedly: "If you go to Huaxia to make a movie, will it reduce your reputation in Hollywood?" ”
"Haha, it won't! Feel relieved! And my fame in Hollywood is basically gone......" Robert Jr. replied.
――――――
After getting Robert Downey Jr., Wang Shang took the scene selector to choose the location non-stop.
In order to be able to keep it secret, Wang Shang chose to take the scenic spot on an uninhabited island. These islands need several conditions: they need to be large enough, with plains, jungles, deserts, and broken buildings......
Before going to the scene, Wang Shang secretly hired geographical experts to investigate all the small islands in the coastal areas of China, and selected four islands with better conditions.
At this time, Wang Shang directly took the list of these four islands and found the city to which the island belonged.
In Shanzhou City, as soon as the local political axe leader heard that Wang Shang was coming, he smiled like a flower, and greeted him directly: "Welcome Mr. Wang to come and make a movie!" ”
It's no wonder they're so happy, the tourism boom in Nanhai Province is still going on, and the impact of Fast and Furious on the local tourism industry is obvious. Now that a new movie is going to be made here, can you not be happy?
Wang Shang shook hands and replied with a smile: "I am going to find a desert island to shoot my new movie "Survival", and it just so happens that Zhujiadao has this condition, so I came to discuss." ”
The next day, Zheng Axe arranged for a deputy mayor in charge of tourism, Sun Quan, five local tour guides, and a cargo ship, to take Wang Shang and his party to Zhujia Island.
The island is located 3 kilometers from the mainland, and there is a sandy beach on the south side of the island, and there is a deep water area next to it, and a boat parking area has been built to moor boats. After Wang Shang got off the ship, he officially landed on the island.
From a distance, there are trees and trees, and there are all kinds of shrubs and weeds growing underneath. In the middle of this wood, there is a one-lane concrete road that leads deep into the island. However, the concrete road is now deserted, and there is not a lot of stubborn grass growing in the cracked places, and the surrounding shrubs and branches and foliage have covered the concrete road in half.
At this time, Mayor Sun explained: "Ten years ago, there was a development here, and I wanted to make a place for tourism, living, and retirement, but the result was not very effective, and it was lost every month, and it was abandoned three years ago." ”
Wang Shang smiled: "It's okay." ”
Soon, the crew unloaded three sightseeing cars from the cargo ship. Wang Shang and the others sat up, and under the leadership of Mayor Sun, they walked three kilometers, and finally came to a place with a wide field of vision, and at a glance, there were about seven or eight kilometers of open plains.
"This plain was originally built for a golf course, and all the trees were cut down at that time......
Later, Wang Shang saw the residential area, there were more than 20 abandoned buildings, many of which had grown grass......
After inspecting for a while, Wang Shang was quite satisfied, although some sites needed to be modified, and some trees could be cut down, but it was not difficult......
At this time, Mayor Sun said: "We are planning to develop this small island into a tourist area, and the mountain has a stream with abundant water, which is suitable for rafting, and in the east; There is a spa area with a very wide area; The place also has a golf course and the island is home to a lot of flora and fauna......"
Wang Shang looked at the Quartet along Mayor Sun's gesture and said, "With this condition, it shouldn't be difficult to attract investment, right?" ”
When Mayor Sun heard this, he smiled bitterly: "It's because a few years ago, the investment here failed, and many bosses lost money. So it scared off a lot of investors. ”
After speaking, he looked at Wang Shang with expectant eyes: "If your movie can be made here, the situation may be different." ”
Wang Shang looked at the jungle in the distance, thoughtful.
After a day of investigation, almost in the evening, Wang Shang and the others finally left the island. That night, the political axe invited Wang Shang and his entourage to a banquet, and during the meal, he also vaguely mentioned the tourism development plan.
However, Wang Shang did not take a stand.
Soon, Wang Shang's itinerary was discovered by media reporters with a keen sense of smell.
"Wang Shang led a team to inspect the island, suspected of preparing for a new film."
"On April 24, Wang Shang and Deputy Mayor Shanzhou went to Zhujia Island for an inspection and stayed for a day and a half."
In the days that followed, Wang Shang visited three other islands, and the conditions were almost the same.
The ability of the paparazzi is also undoubted, and Wang Shang was discovered by them everywhere he went.
"On April 26, Wang Shang and the deputy political and legal secretary of Wenzhou went to Luoshan Island and stayed for one day."
"April 28 ......"
"April 30 ......"
"Wang Shang may have studied Spielberg's directorship and filmed on the island for the sake of film secrecy......"
"Grapevine: Wang Shang is preparing to build a tourist area for the film that integrates film shooting and tourism......"
With the continuous reporting, this matter has also begun to escalate, and countless people in the entertainment industry are talking about it, and this movie, which has not yet started filming, has now become in an uproar. Many producers also sarcastically said: "This person is really good at hype, if he hits the street, he will laugh everyone's big teeth." ”
And these four inspected islands have also shown their faces in the country in the past few days.
After inspecting the four islands, Wang Shang went directly back to the magic capital, and soon hired a professional tourism developer to evaluate the tourism value of Zhujia Island.
――――――

It has a similar beginning to "Fast and Furious", with bright sunshine, blue sky, blue water, sandy beaches, coconut trees, and beautiful women......
Countless tourists enjoy this stunning beach, from boating to skateboarding, to fishing by boat......
Groups of people are scattered around the beach, holding swimming rings and playing in the water......
Adults and children, a happy and peaceful scenery......
Just when all the spectators were relaxing, a shark's dorsal fin appeared on the surface of the sea and was approaching the beach at a very fast speed!!
And just not far away, there is a couple who are swimming sweetly, and then there are fishing and surfing around......
All the spectators breathed and paused, worried about the swimming couple......
Subsequently, as expected by the audience, and also frightened the audience, the swimming woman was bitten to death by a shark, the blood stained the sea red, and the boyfriend screamed in fear.
The next day, beach managers found the girl's body.
The police chief ordered the beach to be closed, but the mayor did not agree to do so. Looking at the mayor's surname, all the audience couldn't help but go into the movie and cut him.
On the third day, tragedy struck again, and during a swim, another child on a swimming board was eaten by a shark.
The mayor of the town is afraid that the town's tourism economy will be seriously affected after the beach blockade, so he still insists on not blocking the beach......
At this time, the audience who substituted for the movie scolded angrily: "This mayor is still not human!" ”
"This kind of person is worthy of being the mayor of the town!! Fuck off!! ”
The film continues.......
