The 2003 Venice International Film Festival will open on September 7, and now it is only two months away from the opening time, and it is impossible to complete the filming and application according to the normal shooting.

But at this time, when he thought of the Venice Film Festival, Shen Zhenghui seemed to have found a fire in his heart, although his style was definitely not favored by Venice, but it was also good to be able to go there and take his works around to brush up his reputation.

Thomas didn't necessarily want to be able to bring the work to Venice, but he definitely wanted to take this opportunity to get Shen Zhenghui to speed up the progress a little. With the vice president of Colombia also landing in London at the same time, the preparation speed of Shen Zhenghui's crew suddenly accelerated, especially with the help of Miyamoto, a skilled hand, the crew was quickly set up. Liam? It was not difficult for Neeson to sign the lead role, he happily accepted the salary of two million US dollars, and then the other actors, Shen Zhenghui, were ready to use European actors as much as possible, so that the salary could be saved a lot.

Thomas was a little worried about such a choice, after all, the film was going to be released in the United States in the end, at first he thought that Shen Zhenghui was going to shoot a large-scale production that cost a lot of money, but now that he looks at it, the budget is more than 10 million US dollars, which is simply an ordinary small production, and he does not use Hollywood stars, such a gap makes him a little worried.

"It doesn't matter, if it really doesn't work, let's choose the main direction of the distribution in Europe, and the main scene is also European anyway." Shen Zhenghui said.

The other characters are all foils in "Hurricane Rescue", the protagonist's ex-wife and daughter only need to be beautiful and have a little acting skills, and the main force of the movie completely depends on Liam? Neeson himself, with his temperament and skill, but very suitable for this role. For this. Shen Zhenghui did not choose to use Yuan Xiangren as the action director, this drama does not need gorgeous action scenes, but should take the real and cold route, Liam? Nissen doesn't need to show how chic his actions are in the whole film, but he needs to show how cruel and powerful he is.

But Thomas himself would love to make Scarlett? Johnson made a cameo appearance as the star in the film, and he claimed to have communicated with Scarlett Johansson. And Scarlett herself will be in Europe in the near future, which is an opportune time.

Of course Scarlett? Johnson rushed to Europe mainly to participate in the award "Lost in Translation" in Venice, she will become a queen in Venice with this film, and at the same time will become a British Academy Film Award actress next year with this film, so no matter how you calculate it, it is a good thing for Scarlett Johansson to come over for a cameo, and Shen Zhenghui has no reason to refuse.

By the way, Ning Huan also took advantage of this opportunity to learn in the crew. He is a nominal screenwriter. Many times I have to work out the details of the script with a group of invited screenwriters, and I have to discuss the details of the real operation with the consultants, and provide the director with a table of the plan, etc., this guy who was very bad at English in his previous life was able to talk at length with others about the reasons for the plot setting in just one month, and at the same time, he was able to let others understand, according to his own words, it can be seen that people are forced out. Bai Tao, a guy who repeatedly failed English in his previous life, now speaks the same German well in Germany? He even learned Japanese well. Even if you can't play football, you don't have to worry about finding a job when you return home.

The crew is assisted by Columbia. The filming in Europe went smoothly, even so, during the filming period, Shen Zhenghui could only sleep four or five hours a day, and sometimes had to work for 20 hours in a row, and eating was regarded as rest. Of course. This is not the case with the other staff in the crew, he himself is in a hurry to see the effect immediately after shooting, and then design the following shots and so on. This shoot uses Sony's digital camera, which is also the biggest expense, and the advantage is that there is no need to wash the film.

Even Mnison's ex-wife and daughter used European actors. Liam Neeson made a good recommendation, they are not unknown in Europe, but compared to Hollywood stars, European actresses are simply cheap and easy to use, and it is easy to cope with this kind of commercial film.

The story of the whole movie is that Brian, a retired agent played by Liam Neeson, lives a poor life, his ex-wife divorced him and married a rich man, Brian wants to compensate his daughter, and buys an expensive karaoke machine to give to her daughter on her birthday. But the daughter's wealthy stepfather gave her a foal directly.

Then, Brian's daughter Kenda wanted to go to Paris for a vacation with her friend Amanda, Brian's early request for Brian's consent was asked for Brian's consent, Brian agreed to his daughter's request for a vacation with mixed feelings, but then his daughter and friends were kidnapped by a gang of kidnappers in Paris, which is a criminal group based on drug trafficking and organizing prostitution, Brian only had 96 hours to rescue his daughter, otherwise, he would never have found his daughter again.

"Hurricane Rescue" fully demonstrates the power of a state agent engaged in special work, even if they are poor in normal times, but in special events, they can fully exert their strength and connections. Although Brian is a retired secret agent, he knows a large number of good buddies who are still on the job or have access to intelligence, as well as senior officials of the French national security services, and can ask for their intelligence help. Although the senior officials of the French national security department have degenerated into the umbrella of the underworld, Brian's combat effectiveness is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary otaku and ordinary rich people in reality.

He traced the periphery of the organization deeply, and found out the situation of the entire criminal organization like a cocoon, figuring out half of the channels through which they committed crimes, and finding out where his daughter was sent. Even in the process, he was hindered by high-ranking French officials, and he successfully completed the task of rescuing his daughter. The original version of the whole film is tense in structure and logical, and it is a pretty good movie.

Shen Zhenghui tried his best to continue the processing techniques of the original work under the pressure of time, but in terms of details, it was still necessary to try to conform to the situation of filming in 2003 instead of 2008, and at this time, the screenwriting team and advisory group that Ning Huan participated in had their own work. When it was approaching the end of August, when the film was successfully completed, Shen Zhenghui finally relaxed and slept for a day after more than ten hours of intense editing.

Then, Thomas and the rest of the assistant director, screenwriter, starring and other staff watched the effect of the first cut of the film, and after a thrilling hour and a half, everyone had to admit that it was quite a powerful movie. Thomas believes that with enough publicity, there is no problem at all in achieving a box office of $100 million in North America, but relatively speaking, France and Paris are simply hacked. By the way, the plutocratic believers in the Middle East have also been hacked. But for Americans, it doesn't matter at all, does it? (To be continued......)
