Chapter 270: Look at the exterior
Early the next morning, Jiang Peng came, and the door was ajar. In the room, Sun Ziming is squatting on the ground, helping a girl sitting on the sofa reading a magazine to tie her shoes. The girl was obviously not the one a few days ago, petite and exquisite, with a bright yellow T-shirt and purple sports shorts, she looked quite beautiful but youthful and looked like she was only seventeen or eighteen years old.
Yes? Jiang Peng was taken aback, the big director would still tie people's shoes? After being stunned for a while, Jiang Peng knocked lightly on the door.
Seeing that it was Jiang Peng, Sun Tzu turned his head and greeted warmly: "Dapeng, come in." Let me introduce, this is my wife Hu Juan, who just arrived yesterday. Juanzi, this is Jiang Peng. ”
Juanzi, who was watching the gossip news with relish, hurriedly threw away the magazine and got up, pulled Sun Ziming up, tied the shoelaces casually twice, and smiled at Jiang Pengtian: "Brother Dapeng, get up." "You can't lose face in front of outsiders.
Sun Ziming didn't think it was embarrassing to help his wife tie his shoes, but it was difficult to tie the tricks, so he said "oh" and stood up and beckoned Jiang Peng to sit.
Jiang Peng realized that the glamorous girl and Li Jiaming were both the boss's lovers a few days ago, and this was the lady of the main palace. Hu Juan? After taking a closer look, Jiang Peng was even more surprised, isn't this Hu Juan, the new queen of the Chinese music scene, the cousin of his boss? No wonder I feel a little familiar.
Hu Juan felt that she hadn't closed the door just now, which made Sun Ziming lose face in front of her subordinates, so she hurriedly made tea and poured water, wanting to be a virtuous little daughter-in-law. Sun Ziming sent a cigarette to Jiang Peng, and seeing that Juanzi really wanted to boil water and make tea, he hurriedly said: "Okay, don't pretend, Dapeng is not an outsider." Hurry up and pack your things and go out, I'm going to see the exterior in the morning. ”
"Oh"
Juanzi hurriedly packed her backpack again, and saw that her grandson shook her head directly, this child has learned badly from Sister Mei, and without an assistant, he will lose everything. Sun Ziming got up to help Juanzi pack her bag, and then helped her buckle the Lakers' baseball cap and sunglasses, and the three of them went out.
When I arrived at the hall, the assistant director of the crew was already waiting there. Lao Du also came out of nowhere, drunk and hazy, it looked like he was fooling around last night. When Lao Du saw Juanzi, he shook his head and said, "Juan, my beautiful Miss Diva, why are you dressed like this?" You should wear purple glasses, that way it will be more fashionable! ”
Lao Du opened his arms and wanted to hug Juanzi, but she kicked twice, and Jiang Peng was stunned again. The elf-like girl in MTV, so rude in life?
Lao Du and Juanzi were usually used to making trouble, rubbed their sore calves, and took out a string of emerald jade bracelets from their camera bags. Juanzi's eyes lit up when she saw it, took the bracelet and snatched the camera bag again, and began to open it to search.
Lao Du saw that Juanzi didn't leave him a necklace, so he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Ajuan, you have to leave one for me, I have to send a note to my wife." ”
"Cut, ex-wife or ex-ex-wife?"
"The current one, I just proposed in Canada the day before yesterday."
Jiang Peng introduced Chris, the assistant director who came from San Francisco, to Sun Ziming, and everyone went to see the location. Chris looks like thirty-two and three, more than one meter eight tall, thin like a bamboo pole. He is a local, and after graduating from college, he has been mixing in various crews, from miscellaneous to assistant director, and he is in his thirties, and he has never even made a movie with the smallest investment.
This time, Greenton introduced him to his brother-in-law, Jiang Peng, and he realized that this was an opportunity. Only in this kind of small company can he come out and realize his dream of directing. From getting the script until yesterday, he traveled almost all over California, just to get the attention of this legendary director.
Sun Ziming also heard Jiang Peng introduce Chris, and he is familiar with everyone in the circle, and his level is not bad, but he is unlucky. In the first half of the year, Warner was going to let him make a comedy, but he temporarily canceled the filming plan, and now he is idle at home. Since Warner can prepare him to make films independently, it must be at a good level. A large company like Warner, although the system is a bit rigid, has a very high vision.
After some conversation, Sun Ziming suddenly realized that he might have dug up a treasure, this guy is Chris? Columbus, a true comedic genius director! "HomeAlone", which he filmed, is actually his 'original'! It's just that he didn't write "Elf" when he graduated from college, and he didn't get the appreciation of the great director Spireberg, and he is currently in a dormant period.
Sun Ziming suppressed the heat in his heart and calmly invited: "Chris, are you interested in working in our company?" I'm looking for a director for a sequel to HomeAlone, and I think you're up to the job."
"Huh?"
Happiness came too quickly, and the huge pie stunned the comedy genius director, and he was stunned for a long time before he excitedly agreed. recruited a real world-class director, Sun Ziming was also very excited, although he still accepted Chris's thanks very calmly on the surface, but the slight tremor of his left hand could not be concealed from Juanzi. After taking a closer look at the ghost guy who was as thin as a bamboo pole, Juanzi didn't see anything great about that guy, "Ziming, this person is very powerful?" ”
Sun Ziming lowered his head in Juanzi's ear and whispered: "This guy is the same as Brother Jing's dead fat man, he belongs to people who can make up and shoot, but his luck is too bad." ”
Yes? When Juanzi heard that there was a fat man, she couldn't help but think about how much money her family could make from others.
……
Looking at the exterior scene, he saw that the sun was about to set at six o'clock in the evening, Jiang Peng stopped Chris and continued to take everyone to see.
"Brother Ming, we're going to have dinner."
"Wait a minute, Ajuan, this is very beautiful, do you want to have a few?"
It's really beautiful, the sun is setting, and the buildings on the street are bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if painted with layers of golden light. Juanzi took off her sunglasses and began to pose, and when she was done, she excitedly pulled her grandson Ming to take a couple photo.
Not far away, a young man who had been waiting for a day was also holding a camera and taking quick continuous photos here. This is a good opportunity to make a fortune, I really didn't expect that the '200 million dollar director' and the diva Hu Juan are a couple! What is that Li Jiaming? One maid and two husbands? As long as this news breaks out, you can't be famous if you don't want to!
Sun Ziming and the others were happily shooting, and they didn't notice this side, and after accompanying Juanzi to take a few group photos, he took a few group photos with Jiang Peng and Chris, and then went to dinner. At the dinner table, everyone was eating and discussing work.
"Chris, have you done all the coordination of the location?"
"It's all done, just set a time, and you can apply two to three days in advance."
Sun Ziming thought about it for a while, since Cheng Long recruited Xiao Hei and them for himself, and his Cheng family class is a master, then the chase scene can be bigger. Anyway, used cars in the United States are super cheap, and it doesn't hurt to crash a few more.
"Chris, I still need to find a city highway, and I will close it for about a day, can I do it?"
Chris asked for clarity, immediately called his friend and asked, and within five minutes he gestured at the dinner table: "Ming, it's impossible in the city, the police department won't agree, but we can take the post-synthesis." There is a road in the suburbs that needs to be renovated, and the closure will start in a few days. I was able to borrow it for a few days, but the roads were in poor condition. ”
The road conditions are poor, so you can't pay for it? However, as long as the money is not spent, this is fine.
"Those roads are just a bit of potholes, I think so, we fill the lines of the vehicles with asphalt and cover the asphalt with paint, what do you think?"
Jiang Peng pressed the calculator on the side, and handed it over after two or three minutes, and Sun Ziming quickly shook his head. Things are cheap in the United States, but labor is super expensive. To fiddle with Chris, the finished footage is then composited in post-production, and the budget is at least more than $500,000 more.
Lao Du looked at the budget and hurriedly stopped: "There is another way, that is, to shoot on the city road, you can use the street scene, and you don't need to compose it in post-production." Aaron and they are good, as long as we adjust the shooting angle and add protective nets in places where the bus can't shoot, it should be fine! ”
That's right, the city is heavily trafficked, the situation is volatile, and it's impossible to close the road, so it's a good idea to adjust the shooting angle and add protective nets.
When Chris heard this, his face turned a little pale, and he hurriedly dissuaded: "Ming, it's not cost-effective, no company would shoot like this, those doctors are vampires!" ”
