That year Huayu

Chapter 479: Shooting, about to part ways

Lin Nan and the other main creators reviewed the scenes shot on the first day on the set.

In the literary and drama part, when the female lawyer played by Naomi Watts, with an insightful and oppressive tone, repeatedly asked if there was anything to hide.

Leonardo showed extremely unjust, manic, helpless and aggrieved emotions. His eyes even turned red with frustration, and he felt like he was about to collapse.

"These are not enough to save you. If it is really gone, or there are other things, and you don't tell me this defense lawyer.

Then you can only wait for the police and judges to convict you. Because there is no way to prove that someone else killed her..."

Naomi Watts intentionally or unintentionally threw a newspaper on the table, and followed Leonardo's temptations and attacks his heart.

The latter subconsciously glanced at the newspaper and saw a piece of news.

News about a young man who has been missing for months, along with photos of that young man's life.

Finally, Leonardo in the camera opened his mouth and talked about what happened three months ago...

"The first lie always needs to be fulfilled with the second lie. Lin, your script is really great!"

"Thanks for the compliment, Jessica."

Lin Nan looked away from the camera and looked at Jessica Chastain and Naomi Watts present.

This morning, the Academy announced the Oscar nominations.

"Congratulations on your nomination for Best Actress."

"In addition, before we have finished filming this movie, many film producers and distribution companies have already come to inquire about it."

"Thanks, Lin."

The two said in unison, both in a good mood.

As he spoke, Lin Nan glanced at Xiao Lizi again, who seemed as if nothing had happened, and comforted:

"Leon, there is still time, there will be opportunities, right?"

"I hope it's as you said. These old guys always deliberately target me..."

Obviously, DiCaprio didn't even get a nomination for this year's Oscars.

"Get ready, in five minutes, we will start shooting the second lie story."

"Yeah, no problem."

A few minutes later, filming began on the tree-lined path.

According to the description and memory of the male protagonist played by Leonardo:

After the two had an affair out of town, he received a concerned call from his wife. He felt guilty and wanted to separate from his lover.

He drove his car, carrying his lover, and the two of them were preparing to rush to the airport and go home.

In the car, he took the initiative to mention the breakup. Both parties became emotional and the car speeded up.

At this time, a deer jumped out in front. While the car was dodging, it collided with another car. The driver on the opposite side was a young man.

The camera moves on the slide. In the shot, the young man's head is covered with blood and he is obviously dead. The cell phone that fell on the seat was still receiving chat messages.

Leonardo took out his cell phone in a panic and was about to call the police, but was stopped by his lover played by Jessica.

"No, you can't call the police. It's his responsibility. He didn't wear a seat belt and was texting while driving.

If we call the police, our relationship will be exposed. Think about your wife, daughter, my husband, and our respective careers..."

The hero played by DiCaprio was convinced, and they prepared to leave quickly while no one was watching.

Time passed by, but the car just couldn't start. It was obviously a crash.

At this time, a car approached from afar. Under the lover's quick wit, the two pretended to be the owners of the two cars and were negotiating to resolve the traffic accident.

The young man who died was laid down in the car to avoid being seen.

"Hi, do you need help?" A middle-aged man passing by rolled up his car window and asked.

"Thank you, no need. I hit his car and we are negotiating to resolve it."

Jessica Chastain replied hurriedly, her tone seemed a little nervous, as if she hadn't recovered from the car crash in her mouth.

At this time, the cell phone of the dead young man left in the car rang, "Oh, it should be a call from the insurance company, I'll go pick it up..."

Jessica Chastain ran over, hung up the call on the young man, pretended to answer the phone and said a few words, then put the phone in her pocket.

Finally, she used her body to block the blood flowing out of the gap in the car door to avoid being seen.

In this way, the two fooled each other. But the male protagonist is still a little worried.

"Maybe he saw the body?"

"No, let's not talk about this now. We have to get rid of the body quickly. That person is a witness and may expose us.

You immediately drive this car to dispose of the body. I'll wait here for someone to repair the car... From now on, we won't meet again. As you wish, it's over..."

Jessica's body and tone were trembling, but she still made decisive arrangements.

Lin Nan nodded with satisfaction and then signaled the end of the game.

"Cut, great, we're here for today."

…………

Every year, the Oscars, like the three major European film festivals, are the focus of attention for filmmakers around the world.

Domestically, the nomination list is also being reported.

Especially for Lin Nan's film crew, two actresses were actually shortlisted, which is extremely conspicuous.

Staying at Crystal Pictures, Lin Nan saw the emails sent by Yue Jun, as well as domestic movie information.

""囧" exceeded 1.2 billion, and the total box office has reached 1.245 billion, with a daily revenue of one million. It is expected that the box office of 1.3 billion will be hopeless."

"The total box office revenue of "Zodiac" is 828 million. Jackie Chan bluntly said that he hopes to exceed 900 million before it is released..."

"The Grandmaster", which Wang Jiawei has been working on for four years, has finally been released in the mainland.

The box office on the first day was 29.4 million, reaching his personal best result. The box office in one day exceeded the total box office of "2046".

The entire Chinese film industry seems to be sucking up to me.

"The director who can produce "The Grandmaster" must also be a great master!"

"Four years of sharpening a sword, meticulous craftsmanship, craftsmanship..."

However, compared to the collective praise in the film and television industry, the Internet is relatively objective.

There are still many viewers who feel that this movie is a bit too boring.

In terms of reputation, although "The Grandmaster" is good, it is still far from the two movies "Life of Pi" and "1942". The reviews of the latter two movies are overwhelmingly positive, with almost no objections. .

"She really seized the opportunity to make a comeback!"

Lin Nan saw what Zhang Ziyi was doing.

For this movie and for herself, International Chapter worked really hard to promote it.

I'm still in Hollywood, but on average, I post at least two or three Weibo posts every hour, shouting at the top of my lungs.

As one of the Academy's judges, "The Grandmaster" will always be mentioned inadvertently when being interviewed by Hollywood media.

The promotion of movies in February has already begun. It is the prime time for Lunar New Year singles, Spring Festival, and Valentine's Day.

"Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", "Love in Seattle", "Perfect 2" and other movies will all appear.

Lin Nan thought for a while and replied to Yue Jun and Xue Xiaolu. The promotion of "Love in Seattle" can be stepped up.

As movies of the same type, Zhang Ziyi's "Perfect 2" and Donnie Yen's "Together" are not very competitive in Lin Nan's opinion. Zhang Ziyi has no box office appeal, while Donnie Yen... plays Romance movie? funny!

Liu Yifei called from Paris with a clear voice: "It will take another day and a half. You can see me in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow."

"Then I can only ask Tom to bring someone to pick you up. I should be on the set." Lin Nan said softly.

"It doesn't matter, you are busy with your business. Besides, I brought a gift back. He... dad gave it to you."

Lin Nan really didn't expect to receive a gift from that person.

"I'm inexplicably looking forward to it, Sissi."

"I said a lot of nice things for you. But you never told me that you have already met!"

"That all happened when we were filming "Inception". Okay, I'll talk to you when you come back. I'm going to the set."

"okay."

…………

The cast of "The Invisible Guest".

According to the plot, the lover played by Jessica drove to the airport alone after spending some time repairing the car.

But the car broke down again midway, and when she was calling for help, she met an old man driving the car, Tom Bolangier.

The latter used to be an automotive engineer and is now retired at home. He was kind enough to help and could tow Jessica's car back for repairs.

Jessica plays the role of a lover who cannot refuse because she needs to hurry.

But what happened next made her feel horrified.

When she followed the old man back to the latter's home and was introduced to his wife, she saw a family photo and was immediately frightened.

Only then did she realize that the young man killed yesterday was the only son of this couple...

And in her jacket pocket, she also contained the mobile phone of a young man who had died in a car accident that she had forgotten to dispose of.

…………

Domestically.

Zeng Jia hung up Yue Jun's call and went to the crew's dressing room to find Yang Mi.

According to the shooting plan, the first two parts of "Tiny Times" will be completed in mid-to-late February.

"Mimi, Director Yue and Director Xue Xiaolu have informed us that we need to adjust the time to coordinate with the film's promotion."

Yang Mi nodded blankly, feeling a little unreal.

The words conveyed by Zeng Jia have another meaning.

That is to say, Yang Mi herself is about to part ways with Shanhai Media. 3 years go by so fast.

"Well, then let's go talk to Director Guo and ask him to adjust my role and free up time."

A group of leading actors from Taiwan and supporting actors from the Mainland were all envious as they watched Yang Mi and Zeng Jia laughing and chatting with Guo Jingming.

Everyone knows that the only first-line actress in the crew is Yang Mi, and she is the one at the front.

Backed by Shanhai Media and Lin Nan Pictures, the road ahead is smooth...

"No problem, I also like Director Xue's movies. You can just run the promotion without any worries. I will help you stagger the scenes."

Guo Jingming said to Yang Mi and Zeng Jia with a smile on his face.

"Then thank you, Director Guo."

Yang Mi and Zeng Jia thanked them.

"You're welcome, I wish your "Love in Seattle" a great box office success..."

For a time, several main actors opened their mouths to express their blessings. This kind of obedience does not cost anything.

…………

The main actors rarely make more than five mistakes when performing.

Most of the time, one or two can be passed, which makes the shooting efficiency of the movie very high.

Lin Nan roughly estimated the time. This "Invisible Guest" can definitely be completed before the end of January.

Paul from Lionsgate unexpectedly came to visit the crew, and Lin Nan could vaguely guess the reason.

A crime drama film that brings together top directors and top actors is very likely to go for an Oscar.

Therefore, its release and distribution is a big business.

It just so happened that the bosses of this movie, the director Lin Nan and the leading actor Leonardo, were both able to meet during the visit.

"According to Oscar rules, the film must be released publicly before the end of the year."

"Lin, Leon, give it to Lions Gate, we are friends."

During a break in filming, Paul mentioned something.

Lin Nan didn't have any objections. He looked at Leonardo with a questioning look.

The latter nodded: "Okay. However, I need to open as many theaters as possible."

"No problem. With your creative lineup, the theater will be happy to do it."

After Paul left, Xiao Lizi whispered to Lin Nan:

"We have to discuss the public relations company and public relations expenses at that time. Lions Gate is not very outstanding in this aspect."

Lin Nan couldn't help laughing when she heard Xiao Lizi's words.

how to say? This is really crazy!

The movie is only halfway through filming, and I’m already thinking about Oscar PR!

"Okay, it's up to you. We'll decide in the second half of the year."

The shooting continued and it was getting dark.

When Tom Bolangier was helping the lover played by Jessica repair his car, he saw an exquisite luxury men's lighter, which felt strange.

It stands to reason that only successful men would carry such a thing with them.

But he remembered that on the way back with him, Jessica Chastain said that it was his sister's car while chatting.

He smiled and shook his head, not paying much attention.

In the house, Jessica Chastain was already very nervous. The hostess was calling her son's friends, but they all said they didn't see anyone.

Until Tom Bolangier came in after repairing the car and reminded him to call his son directly. Only then did the hostess, Naomi Watts, another stylist and makeup artist, react.

Jessica hurried to another room, hid the boy's cell phone in her pocket, and covered everything up.

She also excused herself to be in a hurry and left directly.

Only an elderly couple was left, still contacting their son's friend who "forgot his cell phone" to find someone.
