Best Movie Star

Two days later, Helen Herman had the first contact with Susan Collins, and as Matthew later expected, the contact was not very smooth, and it was much more difficult than he first thought.

As a senior TV screenwriter, Susan Collins also has an agent in Hollywood. With the advice of an agent, it is impossible to sell the movie rights of "The Hunger Games" at an excessively low price. Her situation is better than that of Stephanie. -Mel is much better, has been nominated for an Emmy and is financially better off than waiting for money.

In Helen Herman's message to Matthew, Susan Collins' agent made a copyright transfer offer of up to $5 million, which also includes a certain percentage of later revenue sharing.

A simple purchase at a low price will definitely not be possible. Matthew asked Helen Herman and Susan Collins to continue to talk. If it is only $5 million in copyright fees, it is not impossible, but it cannot involve later sharing, and Conditions such as priority purchase of the copyright of the sequel should be added.

This kind of negotiation is to repay the money on the spot at the sky-high asking price. The other party's conditions are so high, of course, it is not the psychological bottom line price.

Helen Herman is still in talks with Susan Collins, and Matthew continues to shoot "Special Forces" in the Hughes Aircraft Factory studio.

Over time, the crew began filming more scenes.

On the set, many actors, including Matthew, got into a huge model of the aircraft, but the aircraft only had the front half, not the back half, and the camera would only be fixed at the front half of the hatch.

And there is only one side of the bulkhead of the aircraft, and the other side is not built at all for cost saving and filming reasons, and it is a completely semi-open structure.

On the aircraft, Matthew was leaning against the seat, the desert camouflage military uniform on his left hand was dyed red, but he looked extremely strong, as if ignoring the wound on his arm.

"Who are you?" he asked, looking at Carolina Kokova.

Carolina Kirkova came over with a medical box, squatted in front of him, took out the medical scissors from the box, cut Matthew's sleeves, and then said, "Your wound needs to be treated."

Matthew watched her bandage her wound without even frowning. The unusually sturdy Adwal Aegbaji walked over and shoved the needle of the infusion set into Matthew with a military-style rudeness. inside the left hand.

In the infusion shot here, of course, the needle cannot be inserted into the actor's blood vessel.

This black man was wearing a black tight-fitting battle uniform, raised his hand and patted Matthew's shoulder, and said in a loud voice, "You are amazing."

Matthew's face darkened, and he said with a bit of self-reproach, "I'm very incompetent, I killed all the brothers."

"It's not your fault," said Carolina Kirkova, whose hair was dyed red. "You were ambushed, and it was not ordinary terrorists who ambushed you."

Matthew looked around and asked again, "Which unit are you in? Which division is this?" He stared at Carolina Kokova and said, "From your accent, it's not a regular unit. "

Carolina Kokova's expressionless face...

"Stop!" Director Stephen Sommers shouted to stop filming, "KK, your expression needs to be richer!"

In fact, from the start of filming, he wanted to stop because of Karolina Kokova's expression problem, but considering the relationship between the familiar scenes, it was still filmed until now.

Stephen Sommers added, "Reset, reshoot in five minutes."

Hearing this, Matthew stretched his back and waved to the crew assistant. The crew assistant immediately ran over with the kettle. Matthew took the kettle and bit the straw and took two sips, feeling a little better.

Although the weather in Los Angeles is still quite hot in October, this studio converted from a hangar also lacks cooling equipment such as air conditioners, and the huge metal roof absorbs heat, which is like a stuffy tank.

Karolina Kirkova glanced here and saw Matthew drinking water on his own, opened his mouth, but swallowed the words he was about to say.

Today, she entered the crew for the first time to shoot. Compared with the rehearsal, she was inevitably a little nervous.

Matthew could see that he just took the time to relax and didn't say much.

Model background, especially the model who can become a supermodel, when shooting a movie, the facial expression is as rigid as a catwalk, which is almost an inevitable situation.

In contrast, the angels of Wei Mi are better, which is also related to the flexible typhoon of Wei Mi.

Otherwise, Matthew would not have taken Carolina Kirkova, even if she wanted to pay the price.

This shot was subsequently NG three times due to problems with Karolina Kokova and another Arab actor, and the fifth shot was successfully passed.

In the film "Special Forces", Stephen Sommers' requirements are not strict in terms of performance.

Even with Carolina Kirkova's performance, as long as it's not too bad, the director will announce it.

The scene was rearranged, the original set wall was pushed away, and the prop aircraft was turned around to make the scene look more like a hangar at a secret military base when the camera was shooting from the other side.

This scene is completely dominated by Matthew, and the other characters, except for General Hawke played by Dennis Quaid, all serve as the background wall for the male protagonist.

"All your subordinates were killed, and only you were rescued."

In front of the aircraft door on the set, Stephen Sommers said to Matthew the focus of the next scene, "You will definitely get revenge! You will pay back the blood debt from those terrorists. So, the performance must reflect these... …”

Matthew nodded slightly, "I understand."

As the commander of an elite squad, Duke would have confessed to the battle without the red-haired girl and the heavy-duty Duti leading the special forces to help, and the strong fighting ability of these people also surprised him.

This is undoubtedly a more elite army than the elite squad before him.

"Get ready," Stephen Sommers said to Matthew again.

Matthew didn't speak again, got on the aircraft in silence, waited for the crew assistant to close the hatch, and stood behind Carolina Kirkova, waiting for the filming to start.

""Special Forces: The Rise of the Cobra"..." the assistant director's voice came in, "The twelfth scene, the third act, start now!"

After hitting the board, filming began. Dennis Quaid strode to the aircraft with a group of deputies, the aircraft door opened, and Matthew walked down behind Carolina Kirkova.

"General!" Carolina Kirkova carried a huge box and gave Dennis Quaid an American military salute. "We're back."

Dennis Quaid returned a military salute, "Good job!" He looked at everyone who stepped off the aircraft, "Good job, commandos!"

Then Matthew got off the aircraft, gave the general a surprised look, and froze for a while, as if he was a little familiar.

"Welcome to the base, Duke." Dennis Quaid smiled and said, "I have long admired your name."

"You are... General Hawke?" Matthew recognized the man.

"This way," Dennis Quaid said as he led him towards the elevator, "We worked together in Afghanistan, although only once, but you left a very deep impression on me, you are A brilliant soldier, I wanted to recruit you years ago."

Matthew got into the elevator, looked around, and asked, "What kind of organization is this?"

Dennis Quaid said directly, "This is a special force called G.I.JE." He explained, "It is composed of the elites of various elite forces, and it is the top force in the world today."

Right in front of Matthew and Dennis Quaid and others, a huge blue screen began to roll so that composite scenes such as elevator movement and special forces training outside the elevator could be added in post-production.

"Are you tracking that group of terrorists?" Matthew said directly, "If yes, I will join you!"

The blue screen stopped rolling at this time, and the voice of director Stephen Sommers came, "Stop! This one is over!"

Then ~www.readwn.com~ he shouted again, "Take a break for half an hour and change to the twelfth venue to shoot!"

The set changed from quiet to noisy in an instant. Matthew walked towards the resting place alone. Before he had gone far, Carolina Kirkova followed from behind.

"Hi, Matthew." She greeted with a smile and said in a low voice, "There is time in the evening..."

Before she could finish speaking, Bella Anderson came over and said to Matthew, "Just got a call, something happened."

Matthew waved to Carolina Kerkova behind him and walked with Bella Anderson towards a secluded corner of the set. Bella Anderson's approach to him was basically about work. Kokova has nothing to do with it.

"What's the matter?" Matthew asked directly.

What Bella Anderson said had nothing to do with work. "Miss Charlize Theron just called and she will come to visit in the afternoon."

"Sally?" Matthew was a little surprised. "She came back from South Africa?"

In the past two years, Charlize Theron has spared no effort to cheer for the World Cup in South Africa in his spare time.

Sometimes he wondered if South Africa deliberately kidnapped Charlize Theron with that gold brick.

"The specifics are not very clear." Bella Anderson showed an apologetic smile, "Miss Theron hung up after only a few words on the phone."

Matthew nodded lightly, "I see." He thought about it, and then said, "Don't forget to say hello to the crew."

For things like visiting a class, I usually talk to the crew in advance, so as not to affect the normal shooting.

Soon, the crew moved to the No. 12 venue to continue shooting. In the morning, they were all filming literary dramas, and they completed five or six pieces on and off. Overall, it went smoothly.

In the afternoon, Charlize Theron came to visit the class, and Ma Xiu had something he wanted to ask her.
