Volume 1 Chapter 382 Filming in Progress 1

"Director's camera, OK"

"Reflector, OK"

"Makeup, OK"

"I'm ready too"

After receiving reports from the surroundings, Lin Xiaozhi nodded with satisfaction, lifted the microphone and said loudly, "OK everyone, since everyone has finished preparation, make the most correction...... The actors are in place, the cameras and lights are ready

Following his order, the artists who had already changed into their costumes for the performance were either temporarily resting in the audience according to the previous arrangement, or had already entered the venue to wait for the arrangement.

"Good, cinematographer in place, Resident Evil Act I, Scene 4 'Danger is approaching,,

Rebuilt from the underground building of the original World War II air-raid shelter, after spending millions of dollars of investment by Lin Xiaozhi, it has completely changed its appearance at this moment.

The metallic building materials on the walls that have been widened a lot, and the more rigorous room layout, ventilation, and lighting facilities make it look more in line with the setting of the 'high-tech research institute' designed in the script.

It's a pity that the audience could never imagine that because the ventilation is not very good, there is still a faint smell of paint in the building at this time. It's a pity that for the sake of the filming of the movie, Lin Xiaozhi and others have to stay here for a period of time in the future.

Lin Xiaozhi approached a monitor and looked at the results from the monitor screen connected to the camera. On the first day of filming, they were all busy with the three scenes of the protagonist 'Lyon, who escaped after successfully stealing the virus. The plot that is less than two minutes together in the movie, but they have NG u times, especially the plot of Leon's escape at the last point, and he had to reshoot it today, which made him very dissatisfied with the efficiency of the crew.

However, to say that yesterday was not completely unpleasant to him, 'Leon, this villain male protagonist was originally prepared for Leung Jiahui, with the title of actor, Leung Jiahui's strength can be seen. He has played heroes, emperors, policemen, criminals, arrogance and unsachets, with his superb acting skills, he is very handy for playing villains. But in the end, after thinking twice, he still gave this role to Liu Dehua.

There are two reasons for this. First, Birch Tsai starred in his Red Alert before, and now has a certain popularity in Europe and Japan and South Korea by starring in this movie. The audience actually recognizes his face very well, and he once again used it as the leading actor, which is conducive to publicity afterwards. Second, Leung Ka-fai has now signed a contract with Media Asia and has become an artist of Media Asia. Naturally, he has to take care of his own people, so he changed the role of Matt to find his sister to Leung Jiahui, firstly, with his rich acting skills, this role will be handy, and secondly, this role will also appear in the subsequent version of the movie, and he will be able to put on the battlefield and take another film at that time.

In the shot, a man who gradually walked over entered Lin Xiaozhi's sight, it was Li Keqin, the little king of the music world.

Li Keqin will appear in the movie "Resident Evil", or Lin Xiaozhi's initiative to send an invitation, coincidentally because he recently had to hold a continuous concert in Taiwan, he couldn't spare too much time to shoot a long scene, so Lin Xiaozhi took advantage of the situation and arranged for him to receive a bento soon and die, ready to take advantage of his popularity.

Li Keqin, who trimmed a clean and refined hairstyle, and did not have many scenes, was wearing a clean white coat, walking over quickly with a cup of teacup in his hand, and when he saw a person he knew coming over, he didn't forget to shake the coffee cup to say hello. But he didn't want to, and when he came to a fork in the road, he was slammed by a man who walked out of his right-hand side, and his white clothes were stained with coffee

"Hey, man. Don't you even apologize......"

Looking at Li Keqin, who was complaining at Liu Dehua who was walking away in the camera, Lin Xiaozhi frowned slightly, "Card"

Less than two minutes after the filming of the new drama started today, Lin Xiaozhi shouted the first stop

Zhang Yimou turned off the camera, and Li Keqin looked at him blankly, wondering what was wrong with him

After looking at the coffee stains on his body for a while, Lin Xiaozhi said: "Helen, it can be clearly seen in the camera that you have just walked to the fork in the passage, and you have an obvious protective action when you are about to be hit by Birch. This unnatural manifestation of the coffee stains that would have been sprayed on most of your face and chest has been replaced by the fact that it only spills a small part of your waist......"

The plot of the first act should be a relatively easy part of the whole movie to shoot, and there are not many places that need to use special effects processing, special props, and modeling design, and it is easy to complete a few simple processes that need to be used with new vision.

Everyone followed his words and looked at Li Keqin, and found that it was exactly as he said. There are not many coffee stains on Li Keqin's body, which looks very incongruous.

"I'm sorry director, it's my fault. I did hesitate for a moment, "Although Li Keqin has no habit of cleanliness, anyone who knows that he will have a cup of coffee will stain himself will have some instinctive dissatisfaction and resistance in his heart, and it is precisely because of this instinct that he subconsciously appeared a protective action."

"Forget it, everyone is in place, this scene is re-filmed"

With Lin Xiaozhi's reminder, the second shooting was much better, and Li Keqin really didn't have any problems, and passed it directly. Although it seemed to be embarrassed, from the face to the collar, it was very embarrassing to splash the cup of coffee, but there was no sense of incongruity just now.

As a veteran independent film company in the United States, Miramax still has the strength, otherwise the Disney Group, which is preparing to enter live-action film shooting, will not take it as a prey and is ready to buy Miramax

After Lin Xiaozhi took down Miramax first, Lin Xiaozhi did not interfere too much in the management of this company. With the exception of the financial controller and a vice president as stipulated in the agreement, Miramax was largely under the management of the Winston brothers. It was his over-the-top move that won the favor of the Winston brothers, who, although not too optimistic about the prospects of spy films made by Hong Kongers in the United States, still sent the company's most professional negotiation team to contact the theaters that cooperated with their company to negotiate the release. The success of "Red Alert" in Europe is that by the time of its release on April 1, the number of North American theaters that had been promised to show it had increased a bit, and finally on the first day of release, the Winston brothers had successfully contacted 7 theaters and 39 theaters in the United States and Canada, increasing the number of screens to 554.

This result is not outstanding in the United States, and for Hollywood blockbusters, those with less than 1,000 premiere screens are not favored by the market or the producer is not strong enough. For example, several Hollywood giants have thousands of screens screens when movies are released. However, 554 screens is already very good for a Hong Kong film company that has no influence in the United States, you must know that in the past, many Hong Kong film companies such as Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers released movies, very few of them can be released in mainstream theaters. Basically, some of the films exported from Hong Kong to the United States are screened on a small scale in some Chinese-owned non-mainstream theaters in Chinatown, and most of the movies are watched by Chinese, Latinos, and African-American people of color.

On April l, April Fool's Day, "Red Alert" was successfully released in mainstream theaters in the United States, and a thunderclap exploded
