Chapter 459 is more perfect than the original
Chen Jin reported the box office very lightly, and other people's faces were immediately full of smiles. Stallone first raised the coffee in his hand and shrugged his shoulders. "No wine, let's use coffee to worship the greatest KING together!" Everyone coaxed to make a promise and clinked glasses with Chen Jin with a smile.
Today's "The Expendables" is no longer a disabled veteran, but a powerful general, as well as a super big-name guest appearance. The most important thing is that Chen Jin will carve every script wonderfully, which makes people amazing. He wants to make this into a super appealing series.
Therefore, Chen Jinzhao takes all their praise and reverence. At this time, you don't need to be too polite. You have to have a little momentum as a leader, and then, slowly, all this is under your control.
After chatting, everyone was happy. Stallone seemed to ask inadvertently, "KING, you said you would clean up all of us in the sequel. What does this mean? Will we become enemies in the sequel?"
This guy actually asked about the sequel, but he asked very skillfully. Obviously, who doesn't want to know about the next episode and many of the next episodes of such a big-selling movie, which is a good thing related to everyone playing all the time and making money all the time!
Seeing everyone's expectant eyes again, Chen Jin also wanted to take the opportunity to instill something in them and let them hang out with him honestly in the future. As for Governor Arnold Tongzi, if he wants to go to politics, just change another one.
After a little thought, "Well, let's probably shoot two or three happy plots together first," after a pause, seeing their nervous faces, Chen Jin was secretly happy in his heart, "Then, I will launch the story collection of each of us, which is our origin, our previous life, of course, the others are still It's indispensable, but the protagonist in that episode will have more roles.
shrugged his shoulders, "I think, if the box office is always good, then I will take it as a super series, just like Star Wars and 007 Series, and let this series accompany us all the time."
Hehe Yile, "If we get old, I think we will always have some children later, and they can continue our glory now."
Super series. With Chen Jin, a talented screenwriter, everyone also thinks that they have the ability and charm. Obviously, this is a very loving series. Everyone is happy. However, Arnold Schwarzenegger beat Chen Jin, "KING, you say old now, that's not to hit me. "Are you guys!"
This one is 48 years old, and he is really getting old, and Stallone, who is already 49 years old, also shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "It seems that you can play for another 40 or 50 years, make those little kids old, and then you will retire gloriously."
Chen Jin said half-truthly, "That won't work. I still want to fight with the third generation of kids." Psychologically, Pang Ban is nearly 100 years old, and he still looks like a 40-year-old man. If he is 70 or 80 years old, I don't know how he will look.
The protagonists of the first part of The Expendables are Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. After shooting the helicopter the next day, Chen Jin immediately flew back to Prague. In other words, he only left for two days. What's more, he is still shooting the night scene this time, which is basically equivalent to turning around for one day.
Next is a series of scenes, all of which are evening scenes. The final completion is the scene of Prague's overall action in Impossible 1. Except for the protagonist Ethan Hunt, everything else is dead. Of course, this was the idea that Ethan Hunt survived at that time. In fact, it was just a conspiracy, the beginning of a series of plots.
Because it is a split shot, the scene of each shot is very short. Except for the scene in the banquet hall, there are more people, and the props, lighting and makeup are busy, the rest are actually not too troublesome. Even when performing, you can focus more, and it is rare to have a laughing scene.
Bill Collins and Chen Jin are good at controlling the scene. Chen Jin is a screenwriter. He also knows what he wants and what he doesn't want, and he can get all the desired results faster and more efficiently.
In just three nights, everything in front of him was completed. Next was Ethan Hunt, played by Chen Jin. After surviving, he went to see the IMF's agents and found that he had been planted and escaped.
The highlight of this scene is that Ethan Hunt escaped with the help of the bursting fish tank of the whole aquarium cafe. This aquarium cafe is a very novel trend. There are three super-large fish tanks with a width of three meters, a height of two meters and a thickness of 80 centimeters. Not to mention this, the ceiling of the cafe is a colorful and interesting aquarium composed of large fish tanks.
There are six such aquarium cafes in Prague, but this scene is to be filmed in Prague Square, and there is only one near it, and the business of that one is particularly good. They are very reluctant to let Chen Jin and others make a mess of the whole shop, especially those fish tanks. They can't tolerate smashing, which takes too much energy and time to reorganize the store.
There is no way. If all the fish tanks to be used are prepared in advance, it will be easy to redecorate them at that time, because there will be no loss of the upper structure. Therefore, just put the fish tank on it at that time, and then the fish tank below will be the same. As for the rest, there are more people and strength. Big, plus willing to spend money, can be done in two days. Under this condition, Chen Jin personally came out and told them that after the film is released, the store is likely to become a tourist attraction, which is recognized by the store owner.
However, there is another problem at this time. If the fish tank on it is broken and the glass pours down under the help of water, then there are other staff in the cafe, which is very likely to hurt them.
Of course, after shooting in different shots, and then editing, the original Tom Cruise is like that. The broken fish tank is a shot, and then water is splashed on him. He reaches out to block a shot; then the stuntman first smashed the glass with his body. There is also a panicked crowd in the camera, no Yes, the amount of water in it is very small.
Next is to add a lens of flushing tables, chairs and benches with water. There are also panicked waiters and agents, but this is not the water in the fish tank, but the water in the water tank prepared for a long time. Think about it, you will know that the fish tank is so big, and how to come out to fill the whole room with water. Noodles.
The last two shots are Tom's "heroic" from the cafe without glass obstacles. With the surging water jumping out of it, at this time, the fish tank on the ceiling finally broke, and all the water poured down, but at this time, the ceiling The fish tank was only broken in that small area, not all of them. At the same time, for the safety of the staff, there was no one inside; another shot was that Tom ran quickly across Prague Square with the turbulent water and poor fish, and disappeared.
A whole set of shots are edited together, which is the wonderful scene at that time. However, it seems wonderful, but it is not thrilling at all, because there are not many thrilling scenes in it at all. In the slow mirror, you can see it very clearly. Of course, anyway, it's only a minute or two, and you will be satisfied to have fun.
Chen Jin wanted to have a big scene. He was not only alone, but also had to let the agents and staff at that time join in, making the scene chaotic and thrilling, and even more exciting, and even making the escape of the protagonist Ethan Hunt more reasonable.
The first thing to do is to change the scene and replace the fish tank in the scene with a large water wall, from the ground to the ceiling, which looks more spectacular, and the impact on the audience when broken is obviously several times.
What needs to be replaced is the ceiling above the head. First, remove all the fish tank and replace it with a transparent telescopic plastic board. At that time, it will be pulled open at the same time, but there will be no glass debris pouring down. Then you can have a panoramic view, which makes people and seats under fierce impact, chaotic and thrilling, which causes shock and excitement. It can also be doubled.
In such an arrangement, there will be fewer shots, and it is not a close-up of the close-up, but a panorama of the far-range lens. In such a set, the picture is not only smooth, but also more shocking, thrilling and exciting, which will not make the scene caused by the whole aquarium explosion unique. What the audience will remember and what will be discussed will be more More.
Filming is not an actor's business. It is even said that the actor's performance does not take so much time. More time is spent on the preparation of props, makeup artist's makeup, and various scenes, such as lighting, photography preparation and deployment, etc.
Just like the scene that is about to start shooting, it took five days as soon as it was ready. Moreover, if it is not filmed well this time, it will take another two days to make the water wall. It is not the original fish tank. If it is smashed, just take another one and put it up.
In order to make everything better, it is also worth it. Chen Jin is very sure of this. Bill Collins is also more excited. There is a boss who is willing to spend money and is willing to shoot better results, which is the blessing of the director.
When he was about to shoot, Chen Jin called all the actors aside and encouraged them, "Gentlemen and gentlemen, I look forward to success once. In fact, there are no lines here, only us and water," he shrugged his shoulders, "or fish or something."
Everyone laughed, and Chen Jin also smiled and said, "I think everyone has experienced a thrilling scene, and this is the danger of knowing in advance. Therefore, when the water wall breaks, everyone only needs to show the panic they should be, and escape wherever they should. Of course, you can't hit the glass."
Everyone laughed again, because Chen Jin was going to hit the glass later, instead of the original version. After the stuntman smashed it, Brother Tang picked up a bargain, which was not thrilling and only good-looking.
Everything was ready. The camera returned to Ethan Hunt like an angry coffee cup on the table, but took the opportunity to throw the chewing gum bomb to the huge water wall. George and several agents looked at the piece of chewing gum on the water wall in astonishment, while Ethan Hunt immediately squatted down to dodge.
With an order, the water wall more than three meters high broke instantly, and a huge amount of water spewed out thinly. Here is no longer a special scene of the area with a split lens like the original version, but a perfect panorama is given with a set of lenses to shoot the best moment from all angles.
Obviously, everyone underestimated that so much water spewed out. For a moment, they were a little panicked, but this just made the scene look real and perfect. The water was mixed with fish rushing on the people. On the seat, everything rushed to the glass wall of the store.
At this time, at a more shocking beginning, the glass on the top of the ceiling also broke one after another because of the huge air waves and vibrations caused by the bomb, and the waterfall-like water hit the people and everything that were already in chaos.
Although Ethan Hunt, played by Chen Jin, dodged early, he squatted with his head in his arms. His center of gravity was not too stable. At first, he was still washed to the ground by the huge amount of water rushing out of the rupture of the water wall.
However, he struggled to get up quickly. Under the impact of the waterfall overhead, he looked very beautiful and shocking, but his figure rushed to the glass wall of the coffee shop unsteadily. With a loud bang, the glass splashed, and he rushed out with water and fish. First, he fell to the ground because the rush was too fast. After that, the next moment, he got up quickly and quickly unfolded his legs.
The original version is over here. However, in such a shocking scene, Bill Collins gave a close-up of the still raging water in the store to the crowd, the seats and other messy scenes.
Chen Jin ran out and back. Looking at the connected shots, the best presentation of the wonderful, thrilling and shocking scenes at that time, everything was more real, more beautiful and smooth. It was no longer a small close-up, but a crazy panorama.
After watching it, Bill Collins and Chen Jin said with a smile, "This looks like a disaster film. The scene is very spectacular," he shook his head and stared at Chen Jin up and down. "Well, you're not hurt, boss!" It's true that Chen Jin doesn't look like an actor who has just finished the dangerous scene at all. Except for being soaked, he doesn't even have a breath. He can only mutter in his heart. What a freak.
Chen Jin shook his head with a smile, took the towel handed to him by Catherine Zeta Jones and wiped his hair and face. He also saw the last shot of Bill Collins and patted this guy on the shoulder. "Well done!" This is where Bill Collins is excellent. He will not be tied up because of Chen Jin's presence. Instead, the two of them will cooperate better and surprise him from time to time. This is already a problem of one plus one is greater than two.
