Vol 2 Chapter 83: That's a big deal

Chapter 83—That's What It Is
Although the beaches of Rosarito are not as beautiful as some of the world's most famous beaches and are good places to visit, many tourists come here every year. Most of them are Americans and a few are Mexicans and citizens of other countries. .
But since a few months, people who come here will unconsciously explore what the beach near the town is doing. Those who come from the United States rent a large beach and build houses, but these houses are too It's simple, it can't live at all, it looks more like a set, and a big pit was dug in shallow water. Then it started to build a big ship. That's right, a huge cruise ship is too strange.
The locals were particularly surprised, but they watched it change from a skeleton to a large ship. Although it can be seen later that this is not a ship that can be launched into the sea, they will still have a shocking feeling when they stand near and look up. Those who have been recruited in the past as temporary workers especially like to boast. After all, it is always worth showing off that such a giant is born from his own hands, even if he may have just knocked nails or moved things.
Many people want to ask what these Americans are going to do, but the people in charge always evade the topic, and the local government does n’t care about it, just saying that their complete procedures will not hinder the local tourism industry. It really did not hinder it, and it also pulled a lot. After the news spread, many tourists also came to visit and wanted to see this strange big ship docked on the coast.
There were many people, and some things could not be kept secret. It didn't take long for James Cameron to be recognized by several American tourists. After the news came back to the United States, entertainment reporters flocked immediately. They all know that the director who is famous for burning money must be shooting his new movie. Although Cameron likes to burn money and has a small output, each work has a very high commercial value, and naturally there will be no shortage of news. .
But Cameron didn't cooperate with them, although he didn't rush them out, no matter how they asked, they kept silent, but just said that they would know when the time came. So how long is this time? No one knows. Depressed reporters had to leave some people to try their best to soften and inquire about the news.
There are always some demographics in the world that are not so strict, and the reporters who can stay to inquire about the news are all human beings. They can always extract a little bit of useful information from the staff. After a long time, they finally put together the truth: card Mellon's new work should be a movie about shipwrecks at the beginning of the century.
"It's true. The model of the ship from the photos is exactly the style of the early century. We all know that there was a beach that shocked the world at the beginning of the century. The consequences of that shipwreck still affect us today, such as distress signals, such as steamships. The number of lifeboats. But if James Cameron really wants to remake the shipwreck, it may be a disaster for investors. Let alone say that there are too many movies about the Titanic, just personal style He is also inappropriate to make such a movie, and I don't know who is willing to pay for him to build such a large model, "a commentator wrote.
After reporters flew photos of the scene in the United States, many people speculated that it might be the Titanic. After all, the model is very similar, and the Titanic is also the most famous shipwreck at the beginning of the century. How come Cameron's spleen Maybe you do n’t pick your mouth to attract the eye? However, although there are many such speculations, there are not many of them. One-to-one model has not been completely built, but from the photos, it is not certain that it is the Titanic. Second, as the commentator said There are too many movies about the Titanic, and they are not consistent with Cameron's usual style.
Therefore, most people's eyes are focused on the 1: 1 model. How much is this so big? I am afraid that such a model has a budget of two or three independent films. Where to pull the investment.
However, some things are often unexpected. Just two days before Cameron announced the start of shooting, he finally asked the workers to place the Titanic's letter logo on the bow of the model ship. The reporters, of course, relayed the news back to the country for the first time, and then there was a big uproar in the commentary. He really planned to remake the shipwreck.
"God, he must be crazy. The previous movies or technically are not as good as they are now, maybe everything has been shot. How can James be confident that he can shoot something new?"
"We may see a bigger picture, which has always been his specialty."
"A movie is not good with pictures. If James can't tell the story, it's hard to say what the final result of the movie will be, and can he really restore the Titanic's picture at the time?"
In the Tonight Show, the host and guests debated this for a long time, which is a microcosm of the current public opinion circles. Some people think that Cameron is playing with fire, picking an unfamiliar theme and still shouldn't be arrogant, and some people think this is worth looking forward to, Cameron can always give people a surprise. It was a noisy moment and made the media very happy.
"Here I refer to the interior decoration of the Olympics, and I went to the White Swan Hotel to see it on the spot. At the same time, there were photos at the time, these, these and these, including some of the original materials at the time of construction ..." As he walked, Adrian was introduced to a luxurious cabin that had been perfectly furnished.
The decoration is gorgeous and exquisite. Turkish rugs, velvet curtains, all kinds of handmade furniture, and even the carved lines on the fireplace are carefully carved. If you don't look outside, it is the same as the real retro luxury cruise ship cabin.
"Frankly, it's bang." Adrian nodded. Before arriving here, they also went to the first-class luxury restaurant, which is also very beautifully built, and the degree of restoration cannot be said, but there are also left and right, there is a breathtaking feeling .
He didn't ask how much money Cameron hua had. Although this guy burned the money badly, he also knew that the money was used on the blade, not 1uanhua and Bai hua. In addition, the cabin completed in this 1: 1 model ship is only one third, and more is just a shelf, because these are not very helpful for filming.
The key to Cameron's burning of money is that the details are too harsh, as Adrian knows, because some women's clothing except for small flaws on the cuffs, as long as you pay attention to it during shooting, it will not be noticeable. , But he actually made people return to redo, and there is no room for negotiation.
"This is not a movie, sir, it is a crime." The person in charge of overseeing the financial situation complained to him like this.
Although Adrian smiled and comforted each other, he also took the opportunity to knock on Cameron: "Since the filming is now underway, should you also pay attention to some problems that were previously ignored, James? I have seen the book, I am afraid it is a bit tight . "
Although in the memory, Cameron finally went out 240 million, but if it can be completed with 200 million funds, why not? Even if this may be small.
"I know," Cameron suddenly coughed. "I've been watching, don't worry."
Following him, he hurriedly changed the subject again: "Yes, you have been seen by many people on the set today. Do you plan to keep it hidden or announce that you are an investor and investment quota?"
"Well ..." Adrian remembered the reporters who had met around the studio before, and he looked eagerly after seeing him get off the car, although he entered the studio for the first time without asking these guys questions Opportunity, but still got a lot of photos, even if he said nothing, the media would think that he invested.
"It was publicly announced, and they were taken aback." He said with a shrug, and then laughed. "I bet many people will have all kinds of criticisms and even attacks after being stunned, so James, don't Disappointed me, I hope to see their uncomfortable expressions after the movie is released. "
"I promise, you will see, I never forget what you said." Cameron Haha laughed.
The two then stepped down from the model ship, and a lot of extras, as well as various supporting actors and heroines, have been gathered on the scenery pier. I have to admit that Leonardo DiCaprio is really handsome, but unfortunately, the appearance of this young man is destined to make his road difficult, not to mention still starring in a major commercial production.
Adrian Yue affirmed that he did not insist that Rui Fan acted as the actor, so he got along very well with DiCaprio and patted him on the shoulder to show that he was very optimistic about him. DiCaprio was a little flattered, and then listened respectfully, honestly. As for the heroine ...
"How?" Gwyneth raised her hands with a smile and turned around Adrian, regardless of the many people around her, a white lady with blue stripes, wearing a tie and a long skirt. , And white gloves and purple wide-brimmed hats, have a noble spirit.
"Very perfect," Adrian said with admiration, Grace Winsie's elegant and elegant temperament has basically been matched with this dress, plus because of his sake, the body has also been kept quite good, completely Not as good as féi Wen's first look, but the more you look, the more bloated.
"I said, this role is perfect for you." Adrian stretched his hands around her shoulders, looking very intimate.
He knew what she wanted was this. In fact, if it wasn't for Gwennis to go to the set first, he might still be holding her in front of the reporters outside. What about letting them take pictures? There are already several gossips before, and it also involves Gwyneth. Now it is so openly displayed that the true and false will confuse the water.
But even now, it has been said just now that moderation is the most important thing.
The filming of the boarding soon began, and Cameron's arbitrary transformation style suddenly became apparent. The first shot was to hang an antique car on the Titanic's deck. It should be a very simple shot but shot repeatedly. After more than ten times, there is either something wrong here or there. Obviously it is quite perfect again, but Cameron insisted on returning, because one of the extras below stayed in place, although most viewers may not notice these when watching, but since Cameron The presence of flaws will not be allowed.
The following was the same when shooting 1ùsi for the first time, Cameron always thought that Gwennis didn't reflect the indifferent emotion of 1ùsi who wanted to resist but had no choice but to dislike it, I wanted the actor to experience it myself, so I patted it over and over again, annoying Gwennis, who was so tired.
Of course, after all, she is a professional actor, so she is angry and angry, and still tries to adjust her condition to match Cameron. After repeating this countless times, she finally passed.
"I said earlier that this guy is a tyrant and it was a mistake to cooperate with him." The angry Gwennis had just entered the hotel room, lifted Tuǐ and threw out her high heels, and walked back and forth in the room while angrily filling in.膺 said. Although she endured on the set, it does not mean that she will always endure.
"Okay, calm down, dear," Adrian followed as he smiled and pulled her into her arms.
"It's all up to you, why can't you arrange other movies, why do you have to cooperate with this guy?" Still angry, Gwennis said, "You know that there are several times when ng is because he is too critical, why are you Do n’t speak? Do n’t you dare to speak, do n’t you?

"Are you there?" Adrian deliberately made a puzzling look. "And as an actor, do you think you know the situation on the set better than the director, and can you tell the difference between blame and indeed re-shooting?"
Gwenness's face suddenly turned red, her ng mouth fluctuated, and she looked angrily anxious to bite her. But the next second, her mouth was blocked, and Adrian's hand caught her soft and sensitive place.
The girl's voice twitched, writhing her body to struggle, but unfortunately, she gave up only a few times, and finally was held by Adrian to the sand, and she let go of her hands and feet before letting go.
"How are you feeling now?" Adrian asked grinningly, he was too clear how to deal with her.
Gwenis, who looked so shy, gave him a glance, and said nothing to the side of her head.
"Well, Gwinnie, you know, only he can control this subject besides me, and even in many details and later techniques he does better than me," Adrian held her and explained Get up, "Why I do n’t direct, because the production time of this movie will be very long, even if I am famous for efficiency, even if I already know this movie, but it ’s still difficult to reduce the time, so I Had to give it to James. "
Gwyneth still didn't speak, but turned her head around and watched him sigh slightly.
"Will you be obedient?" Adrian ěn again ěn her, "Keep on, no matter how bad James is. I will never miss my sight, and you will know when this movie is released. With this movie Influence, many things will be easier in the future. So, you can dislike him, but never make him stiff. "
"Well, you can always make me do what you say." Gwennis sighed helplessly, then grabbed his neck and blinked, "So what reward for me?"
"Don't worry, you'll get your reward tonight, and there will be a return night and night." Adrian said with a smile.
Although there is still much work to do in Los Angeles, Adrian still spent four days in Rosarito before leaving. Anyway, the later part of "Brave Heart" can be completed at the end of the month, and the basic editing of "Emma" happened to be completed at that time, and then just continued. As for the preparation of several films, both "British Patient" and "Zorro's Mask" will take a lot of time. Although it does not take half a year like "Brave New", several months are indispensable.
Especially for "British Patient", if you want to take a picture of the Sahara, you can only go to Morocco, and the desert in Nevada is not enough to see. Most of the films about North Africa about Sahara, most of them are in Morocco. Although "Zorro's Mask" does not need to go to Mexico for a location, it also has to go to Texas or southern California.
To his surprise, just when he was planning to return, there was good news from Los Angeles, and Bruce Willis agreed in response to the invitation, without any hesitation.
"That was your invitation. How could I refuse the director's invitation." Willis said with a laugh on the phone.
Faced with such an answer, Adrian shrugged with a smile ~ EbookFREE.me ~ He forgot that his influence is increasing every day, and this investment in the "Titanic" is evidence. As he appeared on the set, it was self-evident who invested in the film. Although there was a tabloid on the day when Gwyneth also arrived on the set to hype the scandal of the two, it was soon drowned in the shocking 200 million investment Cameron's new movie "Titanic" is in the news.
Although inflation has been going on, the US dollar has been very strong in the mid-twenties. The movie company has already made 100 million US dollars to invest in movies, not to mention that 200 million also built a 1: 1 model ship, or This alone is enough to make many people vomit blood. Even the richest people can't just spend 200 million dollars to invest in a movie. Is Adrian rich and have nowhere to go?
What makes people even more vomiting blood is that if it is an independent movie by the standards of the 1970s and 1980s, without the participation of a movie company, it will be entirely dependent on directors and producers to invest in recruiting personnel for production. Independent film with 200 million investment ... It ’s crazy to think about it. Fortunately, there have been more explanations for the concept of independent film after entering the era. Otherwise, many people will really go crazy, but even this is still unbearable. Take a sip of old blood.
"This is really a big deal. You can never guess what the miracle director is thinking." David Letterman was so emotional in his show.
