Chapter 791: It's a Beginning
Boss Jia has a big face, so he directly invited these seven people, except for Hu Jun and Liu Ye, who are newcomers, the other five people are all long-famous bigwigs in the Chinese film and television industry.
And after the arrival of these seven people, the assistant director also came forward and told them the plot in detail again.
Although Boss Jia had already talked about the plot with these bigwigs on the phone in advance, after really seeing the script, these bigwigs couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied in their hearts.
They thought they were here to participate in Hollywood blockbusters, even if they weren't starring, but with their status in the circle, they also had a position like co-starring.
But after really opening the script, they realized that they came here to be a trick, and all the shots added together may not take two or three minutes, which inevitably disappointed these bigwigs, which was too far from what they imagined before.
But even if they are dissatisfied, these bigwigs don't dare to really save Boss Jia's face, unlike the domestic arrogance and the nouveau riche, the people in Hong Kong and Hong Kong understand very clearly that rich people are super gods and kings of the world, and Jia Yapeng, the richest man in China with a legendary wealth of billions of dollars, must not be offended.
Not to mention that Daqian Entertainment is becoming more and more bullish now, although there are no actual film and television works, but it has mastered thousands of copyrights, and basically controls the entire Fusang and domestic film and television markets.
Otherwise, as long as Daqian Entertainment gives an order, it will be able to completely block the VCD sales of a film and television work in China and Fusang, and this energy is also very terrifying.
Not to mention that now they know that Daqian Entertainment is cooperating with Hollywood giants, which is incomparable to all Hong Kong and Hong Kong film and television companies, if Boss Jia is happy today, when Boss Jia makes another Hollywood blockbuster in the future, he may be able to give them more opportunities to show his face.
Besides, it's all here, and if you leave now, won't you really be able to get anything, and now you can show your face in Hollywood blockbusters!
So even if they were a little dissatisfied in their hearts, these bigwigs still didn't agree to shoot twice.
It's just that when they really started filming, when they were surprised to find that Boss Jia was actually with them, shirtless, playing the role of boiler workers, they really didn't have anything to say.
The dignified richest man in China filmed with them, and when this matter is said, it will be a lifetime of glory and gimmicks, what else do they have to worry about.
The whole filming process went very smoothly, among the seven actors, 5 of them are actors with extremely high professionalism and can be called actors, and the other two Hu Jun and Liu Ye, although they are not famous, they are standard academics, and the plot is only about ten seconds, when they escaped from the bottom of the cabin to the deck, the two Chinese laborers who died were them, so their plot was quickly completed, and the rest was Boss Jia and the other five actors, who rescued the father and daughter and children on the deck, and the final picture of rowing to save himself.
These actors were still a little worried that Boss Jia would drag them back when filming, but they didn't expect that Boss Jia would act decently, and he also knew a lot of professional knowledge, although his acting skills still seemed very immature, but he had an unusual momentum, and the shooting effect was not bad.
And Boss Jia is also very satisfied with the cooperation with these actors, everyone is Chinese, they can communicate directly in Chinese when filming, and everyone has the blood of Huaxia, and they can all experience the great deeds and emotions of their ancestors, who have suffered thousands of hardships in a foreign country, but are still full of blood, not afraid of the destiny of heaven, and have the courage to struggle.
"Mr. Jia!" In the evening of that day, after the filming ended, Brother Long suddenly found Boss Jia, with a picture of wanting to speak and stopping.
"If you have anything to say, Brother Long can say everything!" Boss Jia said with a smile.
"Then I'll just say it, Mr. Jia, I don't understand, what do you think!" Brother Long had a lot of resentment in his stomach, and looked at our Boss Jia and said.
"I know what you mean!" Boss Jia smiled, "Do you think I'm making a fuss, in order to run a trick that only takes a few minutes, I have found the big names in the entire Chinese film and television industry, which is too embarrassing for the Chinese film industry, right?" ”
"......" Brother Long didn't speak, but obviously acquiesced.
"Actually, when I called you, I was also a little hesitant, and I also thought that my idea was to make a big fuss, give these gringos too much face, and let the absolute bigwigs in our Chinese film industry play tricks, which is almost sending your own body to the feet of foreigners, which will greatly destroy the face of our Chinese films!" Boss Jia said lightly.
"In fact, if it were any other movie, I would never do such a thing, but this movie is different, this movie is "Titanic", it is a film destined to appear as the box office champion in global film history in the future, it can be said to be the most successful commercial and cultural film in the 20th century, this is a movie that will set off a trend all over the world, this movie must have the figure of our Chinese people, even if it is only a dozen seconds, I also need our Chinese people to give the most perfect impression to the world, because this movie, To surpass the impact of hundreds of Hollywood blockbusters on the world, I need the most outstanding actors to give the most perfect cultural output to the world! ”
"Cultural export?" When Brother Long heard Boss Jia's words, he was stunned for a moment, this was the first time he had heard this word.
"Not bad, cultural export!" Boss Jia smiled slightly and said, "The best cultural export tool in the world, that is movies, and this "Titanic" is the beginning of China's cultural export, in the next 20 years, I will use movies to let the world know a new China, and this is when everything began!" ”
As a result, it took less than two days for all the pictures and shots of the Chinese workers to be filmed, and Boss Jia used a private jet to send these bigwigs back to Hong Kong and China.
When these seven people went home again, they felt as if they had a dream and something unusual, who could have imagined that in less than three days, they flew from China to Hawaii, and the richest man in China, as well as the internationally famous director completed the filming of Hollywood blockbusters, and then returned home in an instant, all of this is like a dream, fast and a little unrealistic, as if it has never actually happened.
These actors came and went in a hurry, but Boss Jia stayed, and there are only 22 hours left before the planned global live broadcast of the sinking of the Titanic, and Boss Jia still has to check the preparation progress of the entire work with Director Cameron, as well as the entire crew and live broadcast team.
"By the way, Director Cameron, how long do you plan to edit the plot of the Chinese this time?" After checking the work of the live broadcast, Boss Jia, who was already a little tired, suddenly asked Director Cameron.
"Mr. Jia, let me tell you the truth, although we have filmed three hours of footage, after editing, there may only be more than 20 seconds of plot presentation on the movie!"
"After all, I am shooting a group portrait movie, and there will be hundreds of ordinary people like the survivors of Huaxia, and they will all get the attention of the camera, so as to reflect the tragic scene when the Titanic sank in all aspects, so I can't give you Huaxia survivors too much time, but I promise that even if it is only 20 seconds, I will still present the heroic deeds of your Huaxia people."
"20 seconds is too little, I hope there will be at least about 5 minutes of footage to extract the plot this time!" Boss Jia said lightly.
"5 minutes! Absolutely not, it's too long and will disrupt my overall editing plan! Now the estimated overall movie running time has reached 194 minutes, which is almost more than three hours, and I really don't have five extra minutes for you! Cameron immediately shook his head in refusal.
"Hehe, Director Cameron, let's think about it in a different direction, since it's already 194 minutes, what does it matter if you add another five minutes to 199 minutes? This has no effect on the audience! Boss Jia said with a smile.
"But 194 minutes has made the producers very dissatisfied, they said that it is difficult for the theater to accept such a time, and now it has been increased to 199 minutes, which is ......"
"Don't worry, I'm the producer, I'll talk about the time for you, and I guarantee that there will be no problems for 199 minutes!" Boss Jia said lightly, and then he saw that Director Cameron was still hesitant.
Boss Jia couldn't help but smile and said, "That's it, the next movie directed by Cameron, I don't ask what movie it is, I will definitely invest my best to support your next movie, even if you plan to play 3Dmax, I will fully support you, even if all the investment, I will come out alone, how?" ”
“3Dmax!” Director Cameron was stunned when he heard this, and then involuntarily nodded and said, "Okay, I'll find a way to add these five minutes!" ”
In this way, the 194-minute epic movie "Titanic" in history, with five more minutes of Chinese footage, became a 199-minute movie.
Boss Jia once again quietly changed history.
Well, by the way, Cameron's next movie, called Avatar.
