Chapter 410: Big Brother, Take It Easy

Bob. Shail's post with a trumpet sparked some discussion on the web.

There are many netizens who agree with Bob's remarks, and they feel that Warner is too weak to do things this time.

Big Hollywood companies have always been very strong, and Warner's behavior this time looks very faced, completely without the domineering of the six major Hollywood studios.

Some producers also said that if it were themselves, they would definitely be able to hold the copyright of "Hurricane Rescue 23" firmly in their hands, and Li Shengyao would like to get too many benefits.

Faced with this matter, Warner chose to treat it coldly.

However, they still told Li Shengyao about it.

At this time, Li Shengyao had already come to Istanbul.

It is a historic city that was formerly called Constantinople.

Many Hollywood blockbusters like to come here to shoot, like "007 Black Sun Crisis", "Transnational Bank".

It has a good reputation in Europe and the United States, and it has an exotic atmosphere, but this is not European, and the price of this place is much more affordable than that of European cities.

Filming here can not only make European and American audiences have a sense of substitution, but also relatively cheap.

Lee Shengyao received Toby. Emmerich's phone call revealed what was going on in the beautiful country.

"Man, I'm hesitant right now, I want you to make a big box office, but I'm worried that this will happen because then more people will belittle me."

If "Hurricane Rescue 23" loses money, maybe Warner's choice will be praised.

If "Hurricane Rescue 23" had made money, more Hollywood practitioners would have laughed at Warner, feeling that Warner had missed out on a lot of money.

As for Li Dadao, no one considered his thoughts.

After all, in the hearts of the vast majority of magnesium people, they can do whatever they want.

Naturally, foreign directors will have to succumb to Hollywood's big six.

Li Shengyao understood Toby's feelings, and he was also a little annoyed in his heart, but at this time, he could only comfort Toby, "Friend, I promise you, when the Chinese film market surpasses the island country, your efforts will be worth it and will be praised, and when the time comes, they will praise you for your excellent vision and clever calculation." ”

Soon after, Mr. Lee hung up the phone.

His smile was put away, even though he already had two high-grossing films in the beautiful country.

But the vast majority of people in Hollywood think he's a good bully.

He doesn't really think about the unexpected world, but he knows very well that with Hollywood's perception, there may be trouble in the future.

And he has no means to fight back for the time being.

Of course, he can make a good movie, make more money in the unfriendly atmosphere of Hollywood, and make those people angry but there is no way.

I just want to make money from the people of the magnesium country, what can you do to me except beep in your mouth?

Li Shengyao thought of this, and his mood was slightly better.

He lit the table, "Make a good movie, and then earn a knife." ”

……

When Li Shengyao came to Istanbul with the filming team, Cheng Long and the people in the family class, as well as Amanda and Elizabeth. Hurry has arrived.

These three people are the three most important characters in this play.

Among them Elizabeth. The ex-wife played by Hurry will also be beaten violently.

And the daughter played by Amanda is not playing, but the role is very heavy, and she will show that she is calm and brave like her father.

Compared with the first "Hurricane Rescue", the hero's daughter is a highlight.

In addition, the assistant director and cinematographer arranged by Lee Shengyao have completed the selection of the scene, and all the extras in the movie have been found.

In other words, if Director Li is willing, then they will be able to start filming the next day.

However, Li Shengyao did not choose to turn on the computer immediately, and he planned to spend three days checking the four points.

The first is the preparation of Cheng Long and Amanda.

There is naturally no problem with the acting skills of these two people, but the time that Li Shengyao gave them the script was too short, less than two months.

Lee Shengyao is not sure if the two of them have seriously studied and designed some of the performance details in the plot.

The second is the selection of the assistant director and cinematographer.

In Lee Shengyao's previous life, "Hurricane Rescue 2" should be the most exciting movie in this series, not only about wits and courage, but also about the hero's magical way of finding his daughter.

There is also the vast and desolate beauty of Istanbul.

The film uses a lot of long-shot, wide-angle shots to create a beautiful, ancient, expansive, and cold temperament for the city.

This temperament seems to have some resemblance to the male lead, and in this movie, the male lead seems to fit very well with the city.

The third is the action design of the martial artists of the family class, and the actions of the "Hurricane Rescue" trilogy are in the same vein, they must be clean and neat, and there is a very obvious fighting style in the army.

The fourth is the shooting plan, and then make sure that the first three items are no problem, he has to go over the shooting plan again to see if there are any omissions and if there are any things that need to be corrected.

So he rushed to Istanbul, checked into the hotel, had dinner with Cheng Long, and then asked questions about the preparation before filming.

Cheng Long was still wearing a Tang costume at this time, and he also used Overlord shampoo, he squinted his eyes, with a happy and happy expression, and seemed to enjoy the current environment very much.

However, his dark circles look a little heavy.

It's like the state of "Hurricane Rescue 1" when it was filmed in a beautiful country.

Li Shengyao turned his head to look at Elizabeth not far away. Herry, speechless, shook her head.

This is a mature woman, with a figure of ninety points, not to mention Cheng Long's big nose, it is difficult to hold it when she finds a sixty-year-old uncle.

However, the drama in Istanbul is very important, and there are a lot of fight scenes.

Cheng Long's current state is not good, he must be pointed out.

"I'm fine, Director Li, I feel very good now, I can shoot at any time."

Li Shengyao shook his head, "Big brother, your complexion is not very good now, your face is full of tiredness, the dark circles under your eyes are very heavy, your hair is wet, and there is a lot of oil." ”

Cheng Long was stunned when he heard this, "Impossible, right?"

"How can't it be, you can go to the bathroom now and see how you look."

When Cheng Long heard this, he didn't go to the bathroom, he really frightened Li Shengyao.

Li Shengyao then said in a serious tone: "Big brother, we have to stop in moderation, we have to be leisurely, you squeezed her dry, and the punches are soft, how can we make movies?"

Cheng Long showed an embarrassed expression, and he glanced at Elizabeth greedily. Heli then raised a glass of wine and drank it all, "Director Li, don't worry, I will definitely correct it next." ”

I came several times last night, and finally I didn't seem to feel anything.

Cheng Long plans to shoot once every three days to control the frequency.

"Big brother, it's a matter of words."

"Definitely, the most important thing is credibility."

Li Shengyao nodded, and the conversation changed, "You have already got the script and studied it?" ”

Cheng Long showed a sure expression this time, and he nodded confidently, "I have researched, the script is very good, I like it very much, I have already thought about how to act." ”

"Then if we start filming tomorrow, can you act?"

"Yes."

Cheng Long paused, "This is the basic ethics of an actor, you don't have to worry about this, nine out of ten people who have been in Hollywood treat their work very professionally." ”

Since Cheng Long said this, Li Shengyao believed him for the time being.

"Have you played against Amanda?"

"Nope."

Cheng Long glanced at Elizabeth. Heli showed where she was going after coming to Istanbul.

"Then I'll ask her."

Moments later, Lee found Amanda and made it clear what he meant.

Amanda was wearing a thin black down jacket with a pair of light blue jeans and a pair of blue flats, looking very good next door.

She heard Li Shengyao's words, and then opened a pair of big eyes and looked at Li Shengyao and chuckled.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Lee, I thought you would ask me if I missed you, but I didn't expect you to only care about movies."

Li Shengyao shook his head, "I am a very professional person, and in my place, work is always a priority. ”

When Amanda heard this, she immediately put away her smile, and then replied seriously: "You send me the script, and I will start researching, I have a lot of opinions about my play, and when it comes to shooting, you will be able to understand my focus." ”

"Then tell me, how are you going to shape this girl?"

"I have some ideas about the makeup, the tone of speech, and the details of the performance, I think in the second part, the hero's daughter is more mature, she understands her father's profession better, there is no rejection mentality, and there is a faint yearning."

Amanda continued: "When her mother was kidnapped by the bad guys, she was not afraid and very excited. ”

"With such a character, compared with the first part, she has lighter makeup, more old-fashioned dress, more powerful speech, slower speech, and more restrained and calm eyes."

As the words fell, Amanda lowered her head, and a minute later, she raised her head and looked at Li Shengyao with a confident and indifferent look.

She is performing the state of the heroine of "Hurricane Rescue 23".

"How's it going, Director?"

There was some pride in her eyes, and she was very confident in her efforts.

"It's okay, barely passing."

Lee Shengyao was very satisfied with Amanda's preparation, just like she said, the heroine of the second part was more calm and steady than the first.

In the first part, she was bouncing around.

By the second part, the pace was much calmer, she had already understood the male protagonist, and wanted to help the male protagonist.

He stood up, "Have you been exercising lately?" ”

"Of course, I've been exercising all the time."

"Very good, if you want to be a Hollywood star, you must have a good physique, let's go, let me see the results of your workouts."

Since the performance is good, it is natural to give some rewards, and Li Dadao has always been fair and just.

Amanda immediately followed, out of everyone's sight, and she said with some anticipation: "I'm completely ready, when are we going to start shooting?"

"In a few days, soon."

Lee also hopes to turn on the computer as soon as possible, and when he checks a few other points and makes sure that there is no problem, he will turn it on immediately.
