Chapter 419 "The Expendables" filming begins

Every day goes by in the blink of an eye.

Before we know it, it’s June and the temperature in Los Angeles is gradually rising.

At Daju Film Company, the long-prepared "Suicide Squad" has finally started filming, and the location of the opening ceremony is arranged in the casino city of Las Vegas.

On the way to Las Vegas, Suri watched the latest episode of "Breaking Bad" on her laptop.

When he saw someone introducing himself as being in the drug research and development business, and then being exposed by his companions, saying that he was just a humanoid mouse being tested for drugs, he couldn't help laughing.

In fact, this joke was something Suriti suggested and asked the screenwriter to add to the script, and it was performed just right.

The first season of "Breaking Bad" is just over halfway, and its popularity is catching up with the previous "Prison Break".

Las Vegas is not far from Los Angeles, so this time he chose to go out by car and enjoy the valley and desert scenery along the way, which was a bit like an outing.

He had been to Las Vegas several times, but he was not very interested in the gaming tables, performances, or girls. He was considering going back to Lanai for ten and a half months to go on vacation to the set.

After more than four hours of driving.

When we arrived at a small farm near Las Vegas, we could see that the crew was already in place, and there were many cars parked nearby, including even a red Bugatti Veyron belonging to Stallone.

In this regard, Suri can only say that Stallone is indeed a tough guy superstar who dares to drive such a car for long distances.

It's not that you can't run, it's just that it will be very tiring after driving for a long time, which is particularly taxing on your waist.

Therefore, his own super sports cars are generally only used for driving in urban areas. When going to slightly farther places, luxury cars and commercial vehicles are more comfortable.

Seeing Suri, everyone gathered around him, including many reporters.

Stallone, dressed as a farmer, walked up to Suri with a stiff smile, shook hands and said, "If you don't come, I'm ready to start filming. The weather forecast says it may rain."

The major shareholder of the "Suicide Squad" project is Suri, and Stallone, Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham, Jack Cheng and others have also invested money.

Schwarzenegger, who is still serving as the governor of California, will make a cameo in the later stages, but did not appear today.

Dwayne Johnson stretched out his hand at this moment and said to Suri:
"If I had known you were coming over, I would have been waiting for you yesterday. I went to Caesars Palace Casino last night and lost $7. This place is really not suitable for me."

Suri smiled at them and only said:

"Then let's start quickly. After cutting the ribbon, go straight to the shooting... Hey, why is Barbara dressed like this?"

The young girl standing not far away is none other than Barbara Palvin, who has become very popular in the fashion industry recently. She is currently wearing a student uniform, a white shirt, a school uniform, and a short skirt, which is particularly eye-catching.

After all, he was an "net friend" who had been in contact for half a year. Barbara did not treat him as a boss, and told him in a lively tone:

"My character in the play is a high school student. I will have a role later..."

Suri suddenly realized this.

He had already read several versions of the script for "The Expendables," and only after he was sure it was OK did he finalize it with Stallone, the screenwriter, the chief director, and others.

When asked what the story of the original "The Expendables 1" was, Suri only has a vague memory.

In this new version of "The Expendables", the main story is that the protagonist played by Stallone once accidentally killed the villain's wife and daughter while performing a mission.

After the villain was caught, he was thinking about revenge all day long. After being rescued from prison by his old subordinates, he suddenly became the boss of a certain country and sent people to capture the hero's daughter, hoping that he would also experience the pain of losing a loved one.

The protagonist immediately made a phone call and contacted the Pentagon and his old department. The tough guys ended their vacations and gathered in the warehouse in front of them. Then the helicopter set off with the purpose of subverting the small country and rescuing their daughter.I can only say that when watching this kind of movie, I always feel that they all share the same script outline.

However, when it was my turn to invest in photography, I realized that it was really delicious.

If a more complicated story is set, the plot of the entire movie will inevitably be delayed, and it will take a long time to describe the side details, and then, like "Hulk" and "Green Lantern" that failed at the box office, the audience will be disappointed sleepy.

The core of a tough guy movie is to make the audience feel happy and excited after watching it.

Therefore, in terms of plot, make sure there are no major flaws and try to be as concise as possible so that it makes sense.

Everyone gathered around the farm, and the fence became a restricted area.

The reason is that the protagonist in the play heard in advance that his enemy had been rescued from prison. He had offended too many people in his life, so he set up many agencies at home in advance, and some tunnels actually had explosives buried in them.

In order to avoid accidentally injuring anyone, it was temporarily closed and no outsiders were allowed to enter.

As an investor, Suri is paired with a group of familiar tough-guy superstars. This scene made many reporters' eyes shine. At least today, they don't have to worry about having no news material to hand over.

After being poked in the nose with a microphone, Suri simply said a few words, nothing more than full confidence in the film and that it would present a wonderful story. Then he went to the simple opening venue to preside over the ribbon-cutting ceremony to start filming.

Holding a power-on ceremony specifically has nothing to do with seeking good luck.

Just find reasons to use news media channels to let people remember that there is such a movie, so as to attract them to the theater in the future...

Everything is ready.

As soon as the ribbon-cutting was completed, the director discussed with Stallone and started filming him driving his daughter home.

Barbara is wearing a school uniform and has long brown hair draped over her shoulders. The character fits her age quite well.

Suri watched from the side, thinking that it was a good thing Barbara didn't usually wear this outfit to tease her, otherwise she would probably not be able to withstand it.

Entering filming mode, the Hungarian girl was not distracted. After telling her lines according to the script, she got out of the car and entered the wooden house with Stallone.

Subsequently.

While the father and daughter were cooking, the hero received a phone call from the Pentagon, telling him that there was intelligence that a group of gangsters had arrived near his home.

When Stallone looked outside the house, across a large green potato field, he saw three Cadillac SUVs driving fast. A few seconds of implanted footage was worth a million dollars.

Even the canned corn that Barbara cooked and opened was filled with money, otherwise the brand trademark would not easily appear in the movie.

Major brand manufacturers have long-term cooperation with Hollywood. With the influence of American movies, they indirectly affect countless audiences.

Consecutive shots on the screen often require a long time to prepare during shooting.

Suri had nothing to do. While chatting with Jason Statham and the others, he also used a shovel to dig out the soil and dug out a few potatoes with his own hands.

The big ones are already as big as oranges, and the small ones are like grapes. It looks like they will have to wait a while before harvesting.

In order to rent this farm for filming, the farmer needs to be paid US$20.

Not only will there be explosion scenes, but the interior decoration and exterior walls will not be saved after being shot. This money is enough for the farmer to build a better house, which is equivalent to paying compensation in advance.
