A fierce battle scene is completed, the crew temporarily enters the rest stage, Duke reviews the footage just filmed, sits in the winter sun of the ruins, holding a cup of hot coffee, the unhappiness caused by the interruption of filming in the morning, at this time completely disappeared, but quite happily with Tom? Hanks and Leonardo? DiCaprio was making small talk.

"Are we going a little too far?"

Leonardo's young face was still green, "Will such an explosion have a bad effect?" ”

"Impact?" Duke seemed strange, with an expression that we hadn't done anything, "We're just shooting on schedule, we can't just take a vacation today because of a change in plans, right?" ”

"That's right."

Probably the most affected person before, Tom now? Hanks completely agreed with Duke's words, "I'm also short on time, I can't put the scene on for an indefinite period of time, the Oscar nominations will be announced in a few days, and I have to go back to North America." ”

"Do you need to congratulate you in advance?"

Hear Duke, Tom? Hanks shook his head, "Congratulations, Duke, you've got your hands on last year's North American box office winner." ”

After entering 1995, "Independence Day", which was still screened in nearly 200 theaters in North America, after nearly half a year of accumulation efforts, the North American box office finally surpassed the $357.06 million of "Jurassic Park" to $359.917 million→ dollars, setting the best North American box office results in recent years, and at the same time beating the "Lion King" and "Forrest Gump", which had been released, and firmly held the 1994 North American box office champion in his hands.

The film grossed $888.85 million worldwide, and although most overseas markets have finished screenings, it is still trying to collect money in many remote countries and hit the first box office record in the history of "Jurassic Park".

These are indeed capital worthy of congratulations, and the main actors of the crew are also willing to endure the deployment of such a workaholic director. Because once "Saving Private Ryan" is a big hit, they will also be a part of the benefits.

The sound of leather shoes stepping on the rubble sounded, and Duke turned his head to look, Robin? Grande was walking over.

"Something?" Duke asked.

Unless something important happens, both production managers are stealth men for the crew.

"Someone from the crew of "Braveheart" is here." Robin? Grande said, dodging the ruins of a triangular building. "I want to talk to you."

"Who's coming?"

It's not just Duke asking, next to Tom? Hanks also looked interested, after all, he was the one who was directly affected in the morning.

"Not Mel? Gibson. ”

Maybe it's because they've been together for a long time, and occasionally they can guess Duke's bad intentions, Robin? Grande shook his head and said, "It's Bruce?" Davis, one of the executive producers of Braveheart. ”

Hearing this, Duke lost interest, "Robin." Let Charles go and see him, he must be happy, you all know where my bottom line is. ”

"Our shooting plans will not change."

With that said, Robin? Grande went to Charles? Rowan too.

Leonardo sitting in the back of the side? DiCaprio heard these words completely in his ears, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but tremble, as if the young director in front of him was a little vindictive, and after changing the plan, they would shoot the ending battle scene in the next few days. There are not a few explosions among them, if the crew next door will not be affected. Would he rather believe Duke? Rosenberg is a good guy.

He also got up and left the place, and as soon as he returned to the actor's resting place, he heard shocking news from some particularly well-informed people.

Just when the crew was filming the explosion scene, the horse used for filming next door was frightened and not only washed away the set. It also caused many people to be injured in different ways, among which Sean, who was the most seriously injured? Connally may have had a comminuted fracture of his right leg......

Looking up in the direction he came, Leonardo saw that the young director was working with Tom? Hanks talked and laughed, and didn't seem to pay attention to what happened next door at all, as if this qiē had nothing to do with the crew of "Saving Private Ryan". It seems that Sean? Connery's injury was a complete accident......

This...... Is it Hollywood? Competition within and outside the rules is everywhere? Want to climb up, want to be like Duke? Rosenberg and Tom? Hanks is generally successful, so he can't be afraid of all kinds of competition? To step on the opponent's head?

Young Leonardo? DiCaprio seems to have gained a deeper understanding of the circle.

On this side Duke reconvened the cast and departments to start filming, and on the other side in the makeshift reception room, Charles? Rowan met with Representative Mel? Bruce from Gibson? Davis.

"I'm sorry, Bruce." Charles? Rowan said unhurriedly, "In the morning, in order not to affect the filming of "Braveheart", director Rosenberg had to adjust the shooting plan, and the distance between our sets was far enough away so that the impact on each other could be minimized. ”

"The problem is that your shooting has affected us!" Bruce? Davis looked angry, "The explosions you keep making, Yan zhòng has affected our shooting, and our horses are frightened because of your explosions!" Sean? Connelly fell from his horse and was seriously injured! ”

"According to your meaning...... "Charles?" Luo Wen's face turned to Yan Sù, "The crew of "Saving Private Ryan" is responsible for this? ”

"It's not going to be responsible," Bruce? Davis's tone was not very good, "But you Yan zhòng has influenced director Gibson, and we should both sit down and negotiate a shooting plan that is acceptable to both sides." ”

"That's what I meant in the morning." Charles? Rowan snorted, didn't wait for the other party to speak, and continued, "You should know the media and fans' nickname for director Rosenberg, we will be filming war scenes in the next few weeks, and a lot of preparations have been prepared, if we make adjustments, it will definitely bring losses, who is responsible for this part of the loss?" ”

"You ......"

Bruce? Davis felt his anger rushing to his head, obviously he was still filming a literary drama in the morning, and the war scene was only temporarily changed......

"All we can say is sorry!"

Hear Charles? Rowan is rather cold words, Bruce? Davis understood that this matter would be difficult to resolve through negotiation, and simply said, "For your bad behavior, we will complain to the union!" ”

This faintly threatening word also inspired Charles? Rowan's rage, he was killed by Mel in the morning? Gibson has played it, and he has a fire in his belly before he has a fire.

"Okay!" He stared at each other tightly, "As a member of the Producers' Alliance, since there is a safety accident in the crew, I think I have the obligation to truthfully respond to the Actors' Union!" ”

Sean? The injuries of Connally and others are indeed related to "Saving Private Ryan", but legally speaking, it has nothing to do with it, and this is Ireland, not North America!

Looking at Bruce? Davis reluctantly left, Charles? Rowan felt a lot more comfortable, the shame of being fooled in the morning, only half a day later, Duke used a few explosions to return to the other party, this is simply the best way to fight back.

As for Sean? Connally broke his leg, he didn't care at all, even if the other party complained to the union, what could he do? And behind "Saving Private Ryan" are the three giants of Warner Bros., Walt Disney and Twentieth Century Fox!

What will be the follow-up reaction to "Braveheart", Duke doesn't plan to care at all, hear Sean? The news of Connery's broken leg was only slightly stunned, and he continued to shoot himself, anyway, no matter what the other party did, he made up his mind to finish filming the ending battle before anything else.

As for whether it will upset Mel? Gibson's filming plan, like the other party in Charles? Luo Wen's reaction after the negotiation is the same, what does it matter to him!

The sound of gunfire, cannons, and explosions remained the theme of the set for more than a week.

"Now clear the scene, unrelated personnel evacuate four hundred feet away!"

Looking up at the abandoned clock tower, Duke personally held the megaphone and gave orders, "John, your No. 1 camera is fifteen degrees to the left, and you can capture it with a medium shot!" Ben, I want a wide-angle close-up! David, pay attention to capture the tank! ”

The film crew is busy with tension, the props crew is also debugging the modified tank, and the pyrotechnic crew has already gone up to the bell tower to arrange a blasting point, in order to blow up the half-collapsed abandoned building, the pyrotechnic crew reused military explosives, which is also the reason why Duke asked unrelated personnel to retreat as much as possible.

When the set is set up here, a special photo booth is reserved, and there are certain protection measures, so you don't have to worry about the threat caused by the debris that blows up.

After nearly a month of running-in, the team has found the best rhythm and state, although the constant explosions do torment people's nerves, but as a person who follows Duke to shoot the third film in a row, they are also adapted to working in this noisy environment, even if they occasionally make small mistakes, they can still complete their respective jobs with quality and quantity in general.

Got Jos? William's notice, Duke called the clearance again, and after confirming that all departments were correct, the notice began shooting.

The German tank converted from the Soviet-made T-34 tank slowly turned its gun muzzle and aimed in the direction of the bell tower, a burst of gunpowder smoke flashed, the top of the abandoned bell tower exploded violently, and the rubble flew into the sky, and the small half of the bell tower collapsed directly, smashing on the building ruins on the ground, stirring up countless dust, and the small half of the studio was covered with a layer of dust.

Grim-faced from the main camera position, Duke walked behind the director's monitor to check the footage he had just shot, ignoring the wet towel sent by his assistant, and the overall effect of this small-scale violent explosion was quite good.

"Here you go."

By the time he looked up from the monitor, Sophia? Coppola handed over the steaming wet towel in time, Duke took it and wiped it on his face, and listened to her continue, "Just got a call from Nancy, 'Independence Day' has been nominated for several awards. (To be continued......)
