Chapter 137: Shooting, "Golden Armor" with a Collapsed Reputation

Just do it.

For this particular film, Lin Nan is now full of eager desire to shoot.

Tom showed exceptional organizational skills and pulled up a crew in two days.

"As long as there is a guild, it's all very simple."

Lin Nan has to admit that Hollywood's actors' union still has some advantages, including a large number of actors with good acting skills but not expensive.

The design of the props is also very fast.

Not only should the wooden coffin be thickened so that the main actor can push it with the greatest force, but it should also be designed so that the camera can rotate 360 degrees around the main actor when shooting......

In Hollywood, as long as you have the money, nothing can't be done.

The budget cost of the movie is only more than one million dollars, which is the cost after excluding Lin Nan's director's fees and screenwriter's fees.

The simple is the remuneration of the actors and crew, as well as the cost of props, and even the later stage is handed over to Crystal Pictures.

"For this movie, my shooting schedule is half a month to twenty days, Ryan, do you understand?"

Lin Nan looked at the leading actor he chose and said.

Ryan Reynolds, who has been in the groove for two days, nodded.

He didn't want to miss the opportunity.

"For the past two nights, I slept in a coffin and lay in it during the day, trying my best to substitute emotions, empty my brain, and awaken my subconscious.

Director, I think I can try to shoot first and gradually get into the best condition......"

Lin Nan understands what the other party means, and he also understands that this kind of scene can only enter the state again and again in the actual shooting, and get close to the most real state again and again.

"Let's get started."

The notes are in place, the lights are in place, and the equipment is in place......

β€œaction!”

…………

On the domestic side, the box office of "Golden Armor" has left many films in the dust.

"Wounded City", which was filmed by the original production team of "Infernal Affairs", only replaced the screenings of "Ink Attack" and "The Ballad of Yunshui" in the film schedule.

The performance of "Wounded City" was very weak on the first day, and the box office target of 100 million in the mainland shouted by the crew felt a lot more empty all of a sudden, not to mention the shaking of "Golden Armor" mentioned before.

The reputation of "Golden Armor" has also begun to decline as the box office grows.

"The city is full of big-breasted girls......"

"Except that the chrysanthemum is the chest, is this how the battle is fought? Siege heaps? What about instruments? It's strange to win! ”

The rationality of the plot of "Golden Armor" has been seriously questioned.

In addition to filming, Lin Nan also paid attention to the domestic public opinion report on "Golden Armor".

It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a flood of bad reviews.

Some media use the term "three brothers in bad movies" to describe it: "Wuji", "Night Banquet" and "Golden Armor".

Zhang Yimou was coerced by Zhang Weiping, and half of the current domestic box office can be said to be contributed by Jay Chou's fans.

Money is not easy to make,......

Ryan Reynolds was lying in the coffin, and Lin Nan was observing through the camera inside.

The best effect of this movie is that the actors are in one shot to the end, and the actors do it in one go without interrupting the shot.

This is also Lin Nan's ideal situation, but reality often does not allow it.

After NG several times, Ryan Reynolds buried his head in the water, and he wanted to get himself into that state quickly this way.

Lack of oxygen to the brain, restlessness, fear, panic, tangling......

There was less and less oxygen in the coffin, suffocation, dizziness, and a limited amount of time for him to perform everything, and the experiential pie might be more suitable for the occasion.

The coffin for filming, after communicating with Ryan Reynolds, the latter chose to be airtight and strive for truth.

Lin Nan specially hired emergency personnel to stay on the set, including psychiatrists and insurance companies.

The pale, wet Ryan Reynolds smiled, "Director, I thought, I can try again." ”

"Okay."

……

Nortel's reputation has become more and more famous in the past two years, and the relaxed policy on treating students in school has taken advantage of the school, at least in the market.

After graduating from the 02 class, the most famous among the current students is Yang Mi, who is known as the "06 Endorsement Newcomer King" by many media.

After the admissions brochure came out, the people who consulted crowded the Nortel admissions office, because the phone had already been blown up.

It is already a fact that the number of people who want to take the Nortel exam has definitely increased a lot, and there are more than Chinese opera and upper drama.

Lin Nan, who is far away in Hollywood, has received a lot of messages from people, hoping to help recommend it.

Lin Nantong didn't reply, there are thirty places in the performance department, and more than 10,000 people grabbed it this year, which is terrifying.

Wen Ziren took the time to visit the class, "Happy Death Day" has been released for more than 20 days, and it will be painted immediately.

Lionsgate, as the distributor, easily got the box office data, faster and earlier than Lin Nan knew.

"Would you like to hear the latest box office results?"

Looking at Wen Ziren's demeanor, Lin Nan knew that it was good news.

"How many?"

"It's more than 75 million, but it is estimated that it will not reach 80 million before the painting." Wen Tsairen is still a little pity.

"It's already good, have you forgotten how much it costs us? It's really my own boss, and no matter how much I earn, it's too little! ”

Lin Nan quipped.

"Haha, that's the truth. By the way, how did you shoot here? ”

Lin Nan glanced at Ryan Reynolds, who was adjusting his state outside.

"I wanted to try one shot to the end, but it was a bit unrealistic, but fortunately, it was going well, Ryan is a dedicated person, and he has been shooting almost halfway through it so far."

Wen Tsairen was devastated, it has only been a few days, and half of the award-winning film has been filmed, and there is not much post-production.

Lin Nan has been filming for the past few days and discovered a thing, it turns out that not only domestic actors are obsessed with awards, but also the whole world.

Ryan Reynolds was talking about going to Berlin several times, and Lin Nan suspected that he was stunned.

Who knew that he said, "Director, in Hollywood, all top actors are chasing awards, the box office is only temporary, and awards are lifelong ......"

After giving a lot of examples, Lin Nan couldn't refute it.

Wen Tsairen watched the crew for a while and left.

Tom has replied to Paul Schrader for Lin Nan, and Lin Nan will bring his works to this film festival, but it may be later, but he will definitely submit the film before the deadline.

"New World" was brought to the United States by Xijie, and Lin Nan took the time to meet the person in charge of their trip.

"Director Lin, the feedback of this film after its release in our country has been very good, and it has produced several new records for movie-watching, and Hollywood hopes to get the adaptation rights ......"

The screenwriter is Lin Nan, and the producer also has him, and the transfer of the script adaptation right cannot bypass him.

"I don't care about that, as long as my rights and interests are protected." Lin Nan's attitude is very clear.

"Please rest assured that CJ looks forward to long-term cooperation with you in the future......"

……

Yue Jun sent an email to Lin Nan, and the ratings of "Soldier Assault" on the TV station were very good, and the network spread brought a lot of attention to this drama.

According to the price discussed with Lin Nan before, the second round of playback has been sold, and the new script has been submitted, and the process is currently waiting.

Lin Nan didn't tell anyone else about this script, and it saved trouble, the normal review time is one to two months, and this time he didn't cut the queue, because there is a high probability that this drama will not be opened in the first half of next year, so he is not in a hurry, take his time.

The filming of "Buried Alive" continues.

In the camera, Ryan Reynolds's face is gray from lack of oxygen, his hands are completely moving, and his brain is spinning rapidly.

Lin Nan could see that Ryan Reynolds was in shape, and he was in very good shape.

If we keep performing like this, we may be able to shorten the filming time.

Half an hour later, Ryan Reynolds, who was tired, was helped out by the staff, his eyelids drooped, and asked Lin Nan, "Director, is this section okay?" ”

"It's great, keep it up, maybe you can look forward to the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor."

"Ahem, I'll be very satisfied if I'm shortlisted, I have to go to sleep for a while, my head hurts......"

"Go ahead."

Lin Nan said.

This movie was filmed too fast, most of the scenes were in the coffin, and it was almost finished in a blink of an eye, and the leading actors were really desperate.

Lin Nan chatted with Liu Yifei while calculating the time difference, and heard Liu Yifei say that Orange Sky signed Director Zhang Li, and held a big drinking party for this purpose, and Wang Jinghua took her artists to introduce them one by one.

"You don't even know what they say about "Golden Armor" directed by Yimou."

"How?"

"Called: A bloody case caused by a bun of steamed buns, haha."

Liu Yifei laughed.

Lin Nanke remembered that Liu Yifei had the idea of going to audition.

"I'm glad you didn't go."

"What do you mean?" Liu Yifei wondered.

"One stop there, unsociable, too small."

"Lin Nan, you are dead, you wait for me......"

Lin Nan smiled and took the phone away, "Fortunately, you didn't go at that time." ”

"I don't want to talk to you." Liu Yifei on the other end said coldly.

Lin Nan could think of her innocent appearance at this moment.

In the end, Liu Yifei let out a few cruel words and went to sleep.

However, what Liu Yifei said is true, "Golden Armor" was not only scolded by the audience, but also by many industry peers.

Jia Zhangke recently bombarded Zhang Yimou in the air, and "Golden Armor" dominated most of the screens in China, resulting in no room for other movies to survive.

The latter's answer is even more direct: some directors blame others for their bad harvest, which is very inauthentic.

All in all, it's money.

"Twilight" is also filming over there, and Lin Nan occasionally asks about the progress.

The post-production special effects are still being carried out in an orderly manner, and he will take the time to watch this every day, and the rest of the time is in the crew.

Lin Nan considered the dialogue between the kidnappers and the hostages in "Buried Alive", and whether to modify or delete it.

Wen Ziren gave Lin Nan some of his advice.

"Keep this paragraph, the movie has an extra layer of anti-war meaning, don't worry about touching politics, it's okay to scold the United States and the president in Hollywood, besides, this line is very true......"

Lin Nan nodded in agreement.

This dialogue can sublimate the movie even more, and the idea is suddenly elevated.

The more Lin Nan thought about it, the more he felt that this movie had to go to the film festival, and it would be a pity not to go.

There are many movies that are just not confident and missed the opportunity, including "Buried Alive" in the original time and space.

Ryan Reynolds seems to care more about the filming of the movie than Lin Nan, and once he has a feeling, he will urge the crew to start filming.

After consulting a psychiatrist, Lin Nan also accepted his behavior, for fear that it would be troublesome to film the actor with claustrophobia or depression.

He remembered the original time, the leading actor suffered from depression for a period of time after filming this movie, and it took a long time to recover.
