Chapter 147. 【Facing the big dark horse of the future】
"Chainsaw", the eighth day of filming.
On the set, Yi Feiyang clapped his hands and shouted: "Everyone move quickly, strive to shoot a few more sets of shots!"
Under Yi Feiyang's order, the crew members who were already very tired immediately took action.
At this time, an actor who was about to enter the play shouted at Yi Feiyang: "I'm sorry, director, you asked me to scream loudly in the play for a while, but I couldn't find the feeling of being afraid, I was afraid that I would smash this scene." ”
Yi Feiyang smiled, "So man, let me ask you, what are you most afraid of?" ”
"What?" The little actor didn't understand.
"I ask you what critters you are most afraid of, snakes, rats, or toads?"
"I ...... God, you don't want to ......" the little actor winked his eyes, "Then rats, I hate rats, these dogs bit my ass when I was a kid......"
Yi Feiyang ignored this nagging little actor and said to James Wen beside him: "I'll give him a snake later, it's a bigger one!" ”
The little actor's ears were pointed, and he heard it, "Don't mind, director, I said that I was afraid of mice, why did you bring me a snake?" Oh shit, I'm most afraid of snakes...... Please, even if you scare me, can you make a small one? ”
Yi Feiyang ignored the little actor's plea, and instructed the photographer Cindy to re-bury the camera, "Wait a while to shoot the shot of that guy screaming, I want to take a close-up, understand, it's best to be able to see his gaping throat clearly!" ”
Arrange everything, just wait for the personnel to be ready, and start the machine immediately.
Yi Feiyang sat in the conductor's chair and blinked his dry eyes. I feel some pain in my eyes. He hadn't slept well in days. Yes. Since the beginning of the shoot, he has been facing the camera all the time, constantly watching the shots, constantly watching the playbacks, and constantly making editing changes...... However, in his opinion, if he can speed up a little faster, it will be worth it to be a little more tired, after all, Hollywood's summer vacation is about to begin.
Words in Hollywood. There are only two schedules that are known as the prime time of "box office explosion", that is, Christmas and summer vacation.
Especially the summer vacation, it is the most ferocious schedule in North America, and over the years, there are often many excellent big-budget movies.
For example, in 1996's "Mission Impossible", the North American box office: 180 million, and the overseas box office: 276 million. The film's performance in action scenes is very good, Tom broke the goldfish bowl to escape from the pursuit, hung in the air to steal computer intelligence, and ended in the life-and-death fight on the bullet train have become classic scenes in film history and have been imitated by countless latecomers.
1997's "The Fifth Element", North American box office: 63 million. Overseas box office: 200 million. The film's stunts were cutting-edge at the time, and the future of New York City, where taxis are flying all over the world, is beautifully built. The dazzling battle scenes are quite eye-catching, and the rich jokes are used as spices to feast the audience's eyes. The scene of the exotic heroine singing in the film conveys a mysterious supernatural feeling both visually and soundly, which can be called an out-and-out stroke of genius.
and "Saving Private Ryan", which was released in North America last year, North American box office: 216 million overseas box office: 265 million. Not much to say, this drama has been hailed as a milestone in modern war films, and even Yi Feiyang's last drama is imitating the essence of this drama.
In addition, last year, several blockbusters such as "The Peerless Tribulation" followed and swept Hollywood, making the total box office revenue from May to August last year in North America exceed $3.2 billion, accounting for nearly half of the annual revenue.
It can be said that the summer vacation is the most precious schedule in North America, and almost all of the most exciting entertainment movies of the year will be released in the summer. This is not only a fierce schedule, but also a must for production companies.
So, what are the blockbuster movies in this summer's vacation?
Yi Feiyang just learned a piece of news, which was enough to make his heart tremble: Warner has made a lot of efforts to create science fiction films, and has teamed up with the originally unknown Dusty brothers to prepare to launch their new film - "The Matrix" in this schedule!
Others don't know the way, but Yi Feiyang knows it very clearly, and 1999's "The Matrix" is a booster in the science fiction film industry and has epoch-making milestone significance.
Visually, Yuan Heping's martial arts movements are sharp and elegant, enchanting Western audiences, and the first "bullet time" special effect, combined with stop-motion cinematography and Wia stunts, makes the action scenes present a mesmerizing character. In terms of ideological connotation, the film uses its own philosophical theory to construct a huge and complex view of the world, which has aroused tireless discussion and research by fans.
"The Matrix" made the originally unknown Wachowski brothers become a super director in Hollywood, and the starring Keanu Reeves also ushered in the second spring of his career. The film was originally not favored by the producers, and the production budget was only $60 million, but after its release, it not only won nearly $500 million at the global box office, but also led a wave of "hackers" that swept all over the world, becoming an out-and-out super dark horse.
As soon as he thought of this, Yi Feiyang was a little flustered, yes, he had never panicked, what should he do if his "Chainsaw" and "Hacker" collided?
Bow down?
Or is it a desperate fight?!
Can his small production be comparable to the future dark horse of "Hacker"?
Just when Yi Feiyang was thinking about his thoughts, he suddenly heard a gentle voice behind him: "Hey, Yi, are you tired, do you want me to rub it for you?" ”
Yi Feiyang looked back and saw Anne Hathaway standing behind him prettyly, her face was full of sweet smiles, and there was a unique look in her eyes during the love period, which made her look even more charming.
Yi Feiyang pretended to frown and shouted to the fat man in the distance: "Hey Jack, how did you do it?" Who told you to bring such a beautiful girl in? So how can you still work hard! ”
Anne laughed and said playfully: "Such a great director, do you have the heart to work?" ”
"Such a sexy and beautiful woman standing next to her is a man who will not have a mind." Yi Feiyang looked at Annie, suddenly sighed, and muttered in a low voice: "Ha, how does this in front of you seem to be Anne Hathaway, who is newly rated as the 'factory flower' of Dream Pictures." ”
Anne rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Then do you want me, the 'factory flower', to accompany you at night." ”
Yi Feiyang pretended to be awake and said excitedly: "Really!." ”
James Wen, the apprentice standing behind Yi Feiyang's buttocks, looked at the flirting two, and couldn't help but throw himself to the ground for Yi Feiyang's five-body body that he admired again.
"Yi, today's work is over, shall we go on a date?" Anne looked at Yi Feiyang a little shyly, a little expectantly, and whispered. "It's been a long time since I've been alone since I came back from New York......"
Yi Feiyang thought about it, then shook his head apologetically and said, "Annie, I'm sorry, I still have to discuss the script with Bill and Max at night; There are still some company matters waiting for me to deal with......"
Anne hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Oh, it's okay! Easy, I'm just talking about it casually. She smiled and said, "Then you have to work harder, I will definitely support you." ”
"Annie......" Yi Feiyang couldn't help but grab her hand and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, you originally wanted to shoot this drama, but ...... Really, this drama is too bloody, I don't think it's suitable for you, yes, you're too pure, I don't want you to get any blood on you, even if it's filming. ”
"Hehe, you know that you care about me now, and before that, when you begged me to shoot 'Ghost Shadows'......" Anne quipped.
"That drama is just horror, not bloody......," Yi Feiyang defended himself.
"Okay, no need to explain, I understand." Anne shook his hand and smiled sweetly.
Yi Feiyang looked around, and then said with a sneaky smile: "Annie, don't worry, the filming period of this movie will not exceed 20 days, and we will go on a date every day after the movie is finished?" After a pause, he quietly put it on Annie's ear, and whispered: "When the time comes, you should dress sexy, don't always dress up so old-fashioned, learn from Jessica, how fashionable the little girl is, it's not a miniskirt, or a crop top!" ”
Anne listened to Yi Feiyang's lustful request, her pretty face immediately turned red, and she said angrily: "Villain, like Jessica, you should go to her!" ”
Yi Feiyang smiled stupidly at this Annie and said: "I'm joking, you don't know the way, that little girl seems to have a grudge against me, she looks like she has a grudge against me, she looks at me when she sees me, God, I'd better stay away from her!" ”
Anne Hedwig glanced at him, "I hope you do what you say, and don't want Jessica to hook her finger and you'll run over." ”
For Jessica Alba, Anne Hathaway has always had an indescribable premonition, which is very bad, as if someone is going to snatch their doll, especially Jessica's dazzling youth and sexiness, even if Anne is a girl, she will be attracted to her. But fortunately, Jessica seems to be on the wrong path with Yi, which makes Anne feel a lot more relieved.
"Well, dear Anne, don't be cranky anymore...... I'm going to work too! With that, Yi Feiyang let go of her hand and walked over to the camera in front of her.
Anne stood in place and took a deep breath, looking at the back of Yi Feiyang leaving, she suddenly felt very happy, but a little bit of a loss, she was afraid that she would really have to leave Los Angeles to go to school in New York in the future, Yi Feiyang would not be hooked by other women, and now she heard a lot of news that Natasha and Stormy were very interested in him.
Anne Hathaway looked at Yi Feiyang, who was working hard, but she couldn't help but feel troubled in her heart. (To be continued......)
