"Tom, can I call you that?"

Yan Qingyu looked at Tom, who was a little restrained in front of him. Hanks, smiling.

Although he is already a father of two children, he looks naturally innocent.

This trait makes him shine in "BIG", that is, "Flying to the Future".

Tom. Hanks looked at Yan Qingyu, who didn't hide his true face, and said with a smile: "Of course you can, you can also call me Thomas." Yan, you really look too much like an elf prince. ”

Published thirty years ago, the British fantasy novel The Lord of the Rings swept all English-speaking countries and influenced the growth of generations.

Obviously, Tom. Hanks is no exception.

Yan Qingyu smiled: "Tom, you are a good person. It's not a compliment to you, it's El who sues me. ”

Tom. Hanks laughed when he heard this, and said: "I was silent for a few years after filming "The Mermaid". It's the same with Life. Maybe it's the same sickness, we became good friends. But I don't think he would say anything nice about me, because although The Godfather is one of my favorite movies, my favorite actor is Robert. De Niro. ”

Yan Qingyu laughed and said, "No wonder, because the two were too similar back then, Al was very affected. ”

After filming "The Godfather", Al. One of the reasons why Pacino did not become as popular as he thought was that Americans often did not know how to distinguish between him and Robert. De Niro.

Darker thoughts, Al. Pacino is an Italian national, and Robert. De Niro is an authentic American. So, even though the acting skills are all about the same, but Robert. De Niro's star path is better than that of Al. Panino is a hundred times more than ......

Tom. Hanks was obviously reluctant to think about it more, he looked at Yan Qingyu very seriously, and said, "I read the script." Swallow, I think it's wonderful, but ......"

Yan Qingyu interrupted Tom with a wave of her hand. Hanks turned around and said, "Tom, I know you must have doubts about my directing skills, I'm not from a professional background. But James. Cameron is also not a professional and was driving a truck a decade ago. His "Terminator" grossed $78 million worldwide, and my "Smell" has grossed more than 100 million dollars worldwide, and Al even won an Oscar for it. ”

Saying these is really not showing off, and that is not Yan Qingyu's character.

Say this to dispel Tom. Hanks's concerns.

It took a lot of time to get into the industry. Tom. Hanks only became famous after "The Mermaid" in '84, but sadly, for a long time after that, he could only spend his time in some obscure bad movies.

It wasn't until the year before last in "Flying to the Future" that it broke out again and was a very big success.

So, Tom. Hanks has a very heavy defense mentality against the film, and he is worried about falling into the bad movie pit again.

If that's the case. There may not be a second "Flying to the Future" that can turn him over.

Hearing Yan Qingyu's words, Tom. Hanks' expression faltered slightly.

Yan Qingyu hit the railroad while it was hot: "Tom, we can sign a gambling contract." ”

"What VAM contract?"

Although it looks innocent, Tom. Hanks is not stupid. To put it bluntly, to describe him. It is a typical pig with a pig on the face, and the heart is bright.

Foolish people will never succeed in Hollywood.

Hearing Yan Qingyu's words, Tom. Hanks' heart tightened for no reason......

Yan Qingyu smiled: "I know your worries, you are worried about the recession of the previous years. I was even worried that there would be no film to shoot. Well, I'm willing to dispel your last worries. ”

Tom. Hanks's heart not only did not relax, but became more and more nervous. He looked at Yan Qingyu and said, "What...... How do I cancel it? ”

Yan Qingyu laughed and said, "Relax, relax Tom." Am I going to hurt you? Yes, you know, I'm a rich man, I have a lot of money. ”

Even though it is a cultural habit to show off wealth in the United States, it is still rare to be as straightforward as Yan Qingyu.

Tom. Hanks couldn't help but smile and nodded, "Now Hollywood basically knows that you are a super rich person." ”

Yan Qingyu snorted and said, "Then, we can sign a gambling contract." If Forrest Gump can't grossing more than $400 million worldwide, then I have to make a movie for you every year with an investment of no less than $20 million. ”

This condition makes Tom. Hanks's heart was greatly shaken, 20 million dollars was definitely not a small amount. Especially after the stock market crash of the century, the United States almost entered the Great Depression.

This kind of investment of 20 million US dollars can already be called a huge amount of money.

Tom. Hanks said: "What if Forrest Gump grossed more than $400 million at the global box office? ”

Yan Qingyu laughed and said: "Then you have to sign a contract with my brokerage company, you can rest assured, your commission is the same level as Al, no more, no less, only one percent." ”

Tom. Hanks was even more moved when he heard this, no matter how he looked at this gambling contract, he would not suffer.

Although he doesn't believe that the global box office of "Forrest Gump" can break 400 million, even "Rain Man" does not have this height.

In other words, he can get a movie contract with an investment of more than $20 million every year.

Hey, wait, what's the difference between this and movie success?

Tom. Hanks suddenly looked at Yan Qingyu in a daze.

Yan Qingyu laughed and said, "Don't be puzzled, Tom. The reason is very simple, I am optimistic about you, your future, must be the most influential actor in Hollywood. ”

……

Yan Qingyu got the stubborn Tom here. Hanks, Fang Nan also got the other main supporting characters out.

Including Capt. Deng. Taylor's actor Gary. Sinis, played by Mrs. Gan and Sally. Field.

And Shi Nansheng also established a working group for "Forrest Gump".

"Forrest Gump" was officially launched.

The first sub-shot: follow a feather that slowly falls from the sky, first falls on the shoulder of a passerby, the person leaves, the feather flies, and then falls on the car, the car drives away, and the feather flies until it lands on the hero Frey. Gan's feet. Picked up by Forrest.

"Hello, my name is Freys, Freys. Sweet. Are you going to eat chocolate? I can eat a million pieces of chocolate. Mom used to say that life is like a box of chocolates, you never know which one will be next. Those shoes must be very comfortable, and you can walk all day without pain in your feet. I wish I could have a pair of shoes like this. ”

Frey. Gan said to the black woman sitting next to her.

The black woman said lightly, "My feet hurt. ”

Frey didn't care at all, he continued: "Mom used to say that there are many things to know about a person, just look at the shoes he wears. Where will he go. Where he lives. I wore a lot of shoes, and if I think about it, I can remember the first pair of shoes I worn. Mom said he would take me anywhere, and he was a pair of magic shoes. ”

Fredo, who closed his eyes tightly, recalled vigorously.

……

"Very good, very good, Tom, well done. Come and have a look. ”

After the first long shot, it was the shooting of the first script, which was very smooth, and it was all over again.

Yan Qingyu watched very well behind the camera. After shouting "cut", he happily greeted Tom. Hanks came over and looked at the image in the camera.

Good news for the good start, Tom. Hanks also walked over happily. Enjoyed it together.

He won't appear in the next few scenes, because Forrest Gump's childhood will be filmed.

After watching the first scene in the camera. Tom himself grinned and laughed, and he smiled: "It's okay, the director opened with a long shot, which is very good, somewhat similar to "Smelling Fragrance", which is very attractive to the film." ”

Li Jiaxin, the heroine who always stood beside Yan Qingyu and stood obediently like a maid, couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Hanks, can you explain it in detail, I don't understand it too well." Ah, sorry, I was too abrupt. ”

Seeing Yan Qingyu's faint eyes sweeping, Li Jiaxin was like a frightened rabbit, and even her body trembled slightly.

"Oh, easy, miss!"

Li Jiaxin, such a beautiful woman, made such a frightened look, which almost made Hanks have the urge to find Yan Qingyu to fight alone.

"Xiao Yu, you are too majestic to the lady, she is just studious."

looked at Li Jiaxin, who was crying, and persuaded the useless Tom. Hanks had no choice but to turn his head and complain to Yan Qingyu.

Yan Qingyu was funny in her heart, don't look at Tom's image of an innocent and good man, in fact, he is also a second-married man after all......

Before having the first child, also hi two big. Stimulants such as hemp.

However, these have nothing to do with Yan Qingyu, he didn't pay attention to Li Jiaxin anymore, but said lightly: "If you are willing to be a gentleman, just tell her about it." ”

Yan Qingyu's light words, but Li Jiaxin, who had tried all kinds of persuasion by Hanks to no avail, finally calmed down, and looked at Tom with big eyes full of doubts. Hanks.

According to Hong Kong people, Li Jiaxin is already very ghostly, that is, like a foreign devil.

In fact, she does have ghost blood, and her father is a native Portuguese.

Therefore, even in the eyes of Westerners, she can be regarded as a super beauty.

With tears but full of intellectual curiosity, Tom. Hanks's manly love skyrocketed, and he explained very seriously: "First of all, let's look at the long shot that appears at the beginning of the film, in the blue sky in a haze, the looming feather begins to "float" aimlessly, it floats above the roof, floats into the woods, floats to the side of the road, and then falls on the shoulders of pedestrians with the wind, high and low, and then slowly floats to the feet of the protagonist Forrest Gump, so what's so good about this long shot?

First of all, in the blue gray sky, we can find it fluttering in the quiet sky at a glance, naturally, our eyes and attention will be on this feather, the feather is floating high and low, our eyes will also be high and low with it, where will it drift, where will it drift in the next second?

The audience's attention will follow this feather, it sells all the passes, slowly, slowly, slowly floats, floats here and there, and then slowly floats to the protagonist's feet, so our attention will be shifted to the protagonist's shoes.

And then we will find that the story naturally starts with this shoe and tells it to us, naturally, very naturally. At the end of the first long shot here, the director used such a long shot to open the curtain for the whole film in a relaxed and happy way, and at the same time, this long shot laid the groundwork for the appearance of the protagonist and the telling of a series of stories from childhood to adulthood, and the use of long shots to open the film also gave us a refreshing feeling. ”

did not explain how good he was in the film, but kept praising Yan Qingyu's perfect handling of the first long shot in the film.

This kind of practice not only doubled Li Jiaxin's impression and good impression of him, but even Yan Qingyu couldn't help but slander on the side: Is this his mother a fool? Is there such a shrewd fool in the world?
