It was the hotter season in New Mexico, and Duke stayed here for a few days without interfering with the crew, and like most producers, he would maintain the director's authority on set. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info%music%essays%novels.xs.co

Besides, Duke, who should have intervened, had intervened in the early stages of preparation.

"Chris? Hemsworth is strong......"

Standing in the shade of the town, looking at Thor, wielding a warhammer in front of the camera, Scarlett said to Duke, "He doesn't need any acting at all." ”

"Hmm......" Duke nodded, fully agreeing with Scarlett, "his character didn't need to be performed much in the first place. ”

As he spoke, his eyes left the set and looked around at the town, where the crew built a complete small town for filming.

Scarlett looked over the set and continued, "I took that hammer yesterday and it was very heavy. ”

The crew's Thor Warhammer Mezzola is made of bronze and covered with diamonds and jewels made of resin, and although the entire Warhammer is hollow, it also weighs 30 pounds.

Duke turned back and asked Scarlett, "Would you be interested in picking up that warhammer?" ”

"Pick up the hammer?" Scarlett shook her head, "Not interested, too heavy." ”

"I'm talking about the movies." Duke reminded, "Your character, Natasha? Normanov. ”

Scarlett shrugged her shoulders and said nonchalantly, "That's up to you and Marvel." ”

She vaguely remembers, as if in a certain version of the comics, after the fall of Thor, the god of thunder. Black Widow became the new generation of Thor.

The crew switched scenes at this time and filmed action scenes. Unlike Scarlett's Black Widow, Thor's fighting skills are still the kind of boxing skills drawn in the comics.

"Hello, Director Rosenberg."

An actor who looked likable walked over and said, "Thank you for recommending me for this role." ”

Duke vs. Tom? Hiddleston nodded and said, "You're welcome. ”

Originally. The cast and Marvel Studios selected actor is Kim? Kerry. Starting with "Strange Heroes in Disguise", Kim? Carrey has always liked the character of Loki in the original comics, but was vetoed by Duke, first, the former Loki left too deep an impression on him, and second, Kim? Kerry's salary is too high.

Tom? Hiddleston just passed by and walked to the set after saying hello.

In fact, the rivalry between Loki and Thor is very interesting, and it is also one of the highlights of the whole series, which is exactly 'I abused my brother a thousand times, and my brother treated me like his first love'.

In addition to the veto? Kerry. Choose Tom? Outside of Hiddleston, Duke's intervention in the crew is also reflected in the heroine Jane? Foster.

The character was a nurse in the original comic book, but Duke wanted to make her fit for a modern woman. So it was suggested that she be portrayed as an astrophysicist and a very beautiful research scholar.

Director Kenneth? Branah wants an actress who is both beautiful and smart, with top-notch acting skills, Natalie? Portman's kind of actress who is both intellectual and emotional fits his requirements very well.

But that's vetoed by Duke, Natalie? Portman can indeed play a lot of difficult roles, but this very simple vase is not suitable.

Duke wants to come now, Natalie? Portman's actions at the Cannes Film Festival. It doesn't have to do with that.

Of course, it may also be that he thinks too much, after all, the other party has not won the Oscar actress, and he may not want to enter the commercial masterpiece so soon to make money.

According to the exact news he got, Natalie? Portman is preparing for "Black Swan", but if she wants to win the Oscar for Best Actress with this film, she will definitely not go as smoothly as she once did.

Thinking of this, Duke turned to look at Scarlett, "Let's go." ”

He is turning around the world, and "Fury Road" is also being released around the world, and the number of countries where this film is released has expanded to 97, which is almost to the limit, and many countries and regions are not ready to introduce "Fury Road", such as the Arab world......

In the more than ten days that Duke has been wandering around, "Fury Road" has collected another $62.11 million from North America, and the North American box office has reached $223.02 million, and it is not an extravagant hope that the final box office will break the $250 million mark.

Overseas, more than $50 million has been earned, and the global box office has exceeded $500 million.

In addition, although the peripherals of the film are far from being compared with "Transformers", they sell quite well, especially the various models and dolls of rock warriors, which are extremely popular, and there are even many sounds of fire-breathing electric guitars on the market.

By mid-June, DC Comics had also launched the "Fury Road" comic series, which sold nearly 3 million copies in less than a week after it was released, which also strengthened the idea of a Warner Bros. series.

Duke doesn't mean anything against it, and it takes a series of movies to squeeze all the value out of it.

The importance of a series to a company is self-evident, and Duke knows this. Ellison knows this too.

From the day Sky Film Studio was founded, he was looking for a suitable project to be serialized, but the film he invested in has been until today, and only "I Am Legend" is a big hit, and this film based on the novel is not very suitable for serialization.

So, he has been asking people to find suitable projects, only not long ago, he heard a news, "Fast and Furious 4" producer and actor Fan? Diesel was pulling investment, and after some investigation, he contacted the other party.

"Let's put it this way, I want to invest in your films."

In the reception room, David? Ellison looked at Fan? Diesel's plan said to the bald head, "I'm very optimistic about this project." ”

Fan? Diesel thought for a while and said, "There have been four installments in the Fast and Furious series, which has cultivated a large number of fans, and as long as the level of the fourth part can be maintained, the box office of the film will definitely rise a lot!" ”

After running for these days, I finally met a person who was willing to invest. Fan? Diesel is also a little impatient, but the reality is quite complicated. "David, the rights to this series are in the hands of Universal Pictures, and if our cooperation can be established, we will also have to negotiate with Universal Pictures, Universal's financial situation is not very good at the moment, Ron? After Meyer's resignation. There is also some confusion in internal management. ”

David? Ellison understands Fan? Diesel means. "I have a lot of patience on the projects I'm optimistic about. ”

And what about him again? "Aren't you looking for the original team?" I can help you with that too. ”

"Yes...... "Fan? Diesel frowned, "I never found Jessica?" Alba's whereabouts. ”

"I'll find a professional private investigator to do this."

Looking for someone, or looking for someone who used to be quite famous, to David? Ellison wasn't a difficult task.

He closes the fan? Diesel's project book, "I think you're setting up a villain, a gangster boss, looking for an actor who is tough enough. Do you have the ideal candidate? ”

"The project has not yet been decided," Fan? Diesel spread his hands and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. ”

"I have a good candidate."

David? Ellison leaned a little closer and whispered a name. Fan? Diesel's brow furrowed even tighter, "He? Is it appropriate? ”

"My father was a Jew...... "David? Ellison shrugged, "But I'm not!" ”

Fan? Diesel was silent, just thinking of words like "Fury Road" and sissy, and nodded slightly.

In some ways, all of them have a common dislike for them.

Back in California from New Mexico, Duke got Steve? News that Steve Jobs is seriously ill. Although he never tried to influence or interfere in Jobs's life, and the two were not friends, Duke traveled to San Francisco to meet Apple's leader and dictator out of common interests.

No matter what the world thinks of him in the future, no one can deny that this is a real super genius!

Duke is also known as a genius, but it is clear that he may have some intelligence, but he is still very far from the word genius, compared to Steve? Steve Jobs is a brilliant person, he is just a cheater.

Duke never shied away from that.

A clear mind and a clear understanding of himself can be said to be an important guarantee that he has been making great strides.

Like he knows Steve well? Who is Jobs, he is a layman in the electronics industry, and he will never be stupid enough to influence Jobs, but use all the situations that can be used to stand on the same line with Jobs as much as possible to obtain the greatest benefits.

Steve? People like Jobs are not something that others can influence casually.

So, Duke meets Steve? After that, Jobs still did not do any persuasion about the condition, even though he knew that the other party did not live long.

To be exact, Duke didn't say anything other than a simple greeting, because he was in Steve? Jobs met someone who didn't like him and he didn't like either.

Duke didn't expect to see Larry here? Ellison; Didn't expect that, Larry? Ellison and Jobs still have a bit of a friendship.

This is not a public place, and neither of them hides their thoughts.

Larry? Ellison just snorted at him, and Duke simply ignored him.

After the pioneer of Oracle left, Duke also learned from Steve? Jobs said that the reason for the friendship between the two was a little bit.

On the one hand, the two have a common enemy - Bill? Gates; On the other hand, the two used to be neighbors.

According to Jobs, he was in a relationship with Larry? When Ellison was a neighbor, the family had a peacock at that time, and this peacock was a gift from Jobs' girlfriend to Jobs, and the peacock often walked around the house, sometimes coming outside Ellison's house. And the peacock's frequent loud calls made Ellison sleep poorly.

So Ellison went to Jobs and told him about it, and Jobs replied that he, like Ellison, hated the peacock very much.

Then Jobs successfully persuaded Ellison that when Jobs explained to his girlfriend how the neighbors didn't like the peacock, Ellison must follow Jobs to "add fuel and vinegar".

It is because of this peacock that Jobs and Larry? Ellison built a little friendship. (To be continued.) )
