Chapter 550: Filming Location: Erlan
"Saving Private Ryan" describes the four sons of the Ryan family who participated in the war after the Normandy landing, except for the youngest son of the 101st Airborne Division, Private James Ryan, who is still missing, the other three sons have all died in battle in various places within two weeks. After learning of the incident, General Marshall, chief of staff of the US Army, out of humanitarian considerations, specially ordered a team of eight people to be organized at the front line to find the story of Private James Ryan, whose life and death were uncertain, in the vast sea of people and the rain of bullets, and to send him back to the rear safely.
Ye Chen walked into the military training base of the United States for the first time, there are advanced military equipment and high-quality soldiers, Ye Chen didn't know what the situation was when Bobs brought Ye Chen here, but he said that he would tell Ye Chen when he arrived at the destination.
Originally, Ye Chen did not have the right to enter the military zone of the United States, and then Bobs entered the training base as the main creator of this movie after some communication, but it was only limited to half an hour.
When he arrived at the training base, Ye Chen knew what Bobcks' secret was, it turned out that the major stars he invited this time were all conducting correct military training here, in order to better be able to get a more realistic effect in the movie, so Bobs took this series of exercises.
I have to say that he thinks very well, with Ye Chen's understanding, this kind of movie, as long as you find a few people who look like soldiers to act, but he didn't think about letting actors participate in military training, which is obviously a bit too exaggerated.
"Through real training this time, they can also have a certain understanding of the army, and they can be accurate in the details of the movie, especially the posture of holding the gun, after his special requirements, the person must achieve the goal, otherwise I would rather not shoot, as for these investments, they must be worthy of this movie."
Bobks's words made Ye Chen also feel his cognition of film art,
"Bobs, sir, they're doing pretty well, and they'll be going all the way when the time comes."
Bobs smiled, then pointed to a sturdy man who was crossing the obstacle and said: "That is the captain of this special operation, he is Hans, the winner of the best actor at last year's Universal International Film Festival, with strong acting skills, this time after some training, he must be the tough guy role, and the other team members can be seen by looking at their physique, the image of a natural tough guy, with a little carving, is a piece of beautiful jade!" ”
Ye Chen looked at those tall and mighty people, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the physical fitness of this foreign actor is good, if this is put in China, it will not get a lot of fans.
"By the way, Mr. Bobx, who is that Ryan playing?"
Ye Chen thought that there would be an actor who played Ryan here, how could he guess such a few people, he couldn't guess them all!
Bobs shook his head and said: "Now that Marmon is still filming, he should be in place when we start filming, this young man is very good, and he is very similar to Ryan's role, and when the filming comes, you can meet him, but you have to follow us on this side of the earth, and you may not be able to return home for the time being, you have to be prepared for this!" ”
Ye Chen nodded and smiled: "This is no problem at all, I was about to graduate, and I wanted to learn this movie from you, who is a senior in the film industry, and go back to work on my graduation work." ”
"Graduation project?" Bobs was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Ye Chen and said, "Your work is already very good, and you can graduate with full marks in the academy, I really don't know what you're worried about?" ”
Ye Chen also knows that his current grades are enough for him to graduate with excellent grades, even if he is placed in the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts, or the Central Academy of Arts, or even the Film Academy, there are a few people who can compare with his current grades.
"People always need to make progress, if you are blindly satisfied, then sooner or later you will go downhill, no different from ordinary people, so I still need to learn more from the old-timers is the right thing, otherwise the graduation project is poor, I will fail."
Bobs nodded with satisfaction and said: "Paramount's recommendation of you to come and see is not all selfish, on the other hand, it may be because of your military development, and want me to take you more, this cunning old fox, but I myself am also willing, let's go to the British Empire in the afternoon to discuss the matter of seconding more than 1,000 troops to assist in shooting, you can also take a look!" ”
Ye Chen said in disbelief: "The matter of seconding troops, isn't this a bit too exaggerated, will the British Empire be seconded?" Even if you give them an honorarium, it's quite difficult! ”
Ye Chen also knows that in military-themed movies or TV series, local troops sometimes often participate in the filming, but these are only executed when they receive orders.
Especially with such a huge scale of troops, with 2,000 people, this movement should not be too big, and it is strange that the Ministry of Defense of the British Empire will be unified!
"So I need to talk about this, you follow me to meet the world, knowing that you showed up at the handover ceremony in Port City, they won't do anything to you, aren't you?"
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Chen and Bobs arrived at the place where they were negotiating, but the officials of the Ministry of Defense only agreed to send 500 troops after repeated negotiations, and if they could not provide more.
Bobs tried again and again but still couldn't meet Bobs's filming requirements, and finally stopped business cooperation.
Ye Chen had to sigh for Bobks's persistence, perhaps it was because of this that there would be such an excellent director, it seems that he has a lot to learn in the future, of which Bobs is one of them, Paramount is also one of them, because it took nearly two years to prepare for "Titanic".
"Next, let's go to Erlan, which should meet my needs, otherwise, this movie will really be difficult to shoot."
After arriving in Erlan, the relevant personnel of the Ministry of Defense were still relatively resistant to Bobex's request at first, but after repeated negotiations, Erlan finally decided to agree to Bobex's request, and Bobbers also had a lot of interests for this.
As for the equipment and weapons in the film, naturally all of them are provided by the troops, among which the Tiger tank that appears in the script is modified by the military with the Su-34 tank, but it is better than nothing.
After everything is ready, just wait for all the actors to be in place and start filming, and at this moment, "Titanic" directed by Paramount himself has been filming for a long time, and he even asked Ye Chen on the phone if he wanted to participate in the role, after all, it is his own work, why do you want six shadows?
