Chapter 253 An accident on the crew
Chapter 255 An accident on the crew
In the early morning, Jack was woken up by the beeping alarm clock. He looked at his watch and saw that it was past 7 o'clock and he had slept for about 5 hours.
I endured the exhaustion and got up, knocked on the door next door, and then walked to the bathroom to wash up.
After Jack bought the house, Swagger has been living with him for a while. Two Ferraris of the same model parked in front of the house every day. Residents in the community speculated who lived in this house.
After washing up in confusion, Jack took over his place as soon as he left the sink.
Today's car chase scene was scheduled early in the morning. For this kind of scene, the external producer must submit an application to the government in advance to close the road section for filming, so the time cannot be changed. Even if they are tired, they must film it.
After washing up, the two of them didn't even bother to have breakfast, and rushed to the set with two slices of sandwich in their mouths.
When the two arrived, most of the crew was already in place and setting up the scene.
Sonny arrived almost at the same time as them, and the crew once again witnessed the arrival of the "traffic light" combination. Three Ferraris of different colors sounded together in unison, which was indescribably pleasing to the eye.
The section of road that was closed for filming today is a section of road from Los Angeles to the outskirts of the city. The road is flat and the scenery is beautiful, so the director decided to shoot here after the production inspected the scene.
The three of them found the prop truck, said hello to the TTI people, and started counting the guns.
Sonny and the others are unconvinced. That guy really didn’t offend us at all.
Chen Rong was also working with the actors one by one. Each of the eight of us was responsible for a few people. Instead of repeating all the actions we were going to do today and letting us do it until we knew it, that was how slow the martial arts performance could be.
One of the reasons for passing.
"Director, director, the small truck in charge of the prop truck had an accident on the road..."
As soon as he heard that the prop truck was in place, the director slowed down, and the producer Lilian next to him slowed down first.
The two of them also looked over at that time. Director Xiao Wei touched his chin and looked at the eight Ferraris of different colors parked together, mentally imagining the scene before replacing them with Ferraris.
That film is a fashion action film, and its target group is young people, so it must have something eye-catching.
The two waved their hands and said, "There is a problem. The gun is in bad condition and you have checked the bullets."
"No, but one car is fine. Eight cars are needed."
Ferrari's interior is as cool as Chen Ronglu's Wendy, and it always feels a bit boring to be the lead car.
When we were taking inventory of the guns, director Xiao Wei and producer David also arrived at the scene. Those two were the smallest on the set. Is there anyone who could arrive later than us?
"Chen Rong, help me, help the crew get through that difficulty. There must be something wrong with the car, and the crew will pay for it."
The only eight Ferraris on site were the eight without the 'traffic light' combination.
So what Wei arranged for the villain was a simple supercar, Swag Wendy.
But now that the villain’s supercar is on the road, should we let the villain appear in a Toyota Alfa?
When I throw my idea under your bus, I have to ask for your opinions in advance.
While Chen Rong was explaining the moves to Shaopu, the executive producer suddenly ran over anxiously.
The director was angry because it must be someone else's car, and it can be replaced temporarily. However, the villain's car is Swagwindi, and it is impossible to find a replacement in a short time.
And the color is too dark, it doesn’t match the white Audi in front.
After Jack counted the portions in his hand, he turned to ask Martin and Aston.
"Uh... you see, can't I switch to a Ferrari?"
"Eight brothers, please help~~"
The executive producer had a wry smile on his face and owed it to the eight people from a distance, hoping that they would help. The matter will definitely be resolved today, and I will have to take the blame.
Yes, it must be replaced by a Ferrari, and it needs to be slightly modified.
"Well, can we temporarily find another vehicle to replace mine?"
The executive producer joined in to say bad things later, saying that the "Traffic Light" combination is someone's private car. It's just a matter of words to give it to me. Even if it is given to me, there is nothing I can do about it.
Today is the first appearance of the villain boss, and that scene must be visually stunning.
At the critical moment, Chen Rong stood up. The executive producer is in your hands, and you have to help wipe that butt.
This is what they have to do every day, counting the number of guns and checking the condition of the bullets.
Seeing that the director was about to have a seizure, the executive producer hurriedly consulted.
Sonny is the one who takes advantage of me.
"Whose car is under the truck?" the director asked.
My sound was heard by people in the distance. Everyone stopped moving their watches and looked here in curiosity.
Li Lian Production was responsible for renting all the venues. The film's construction schedule was very tight. At the beginning, we only applied for one day of closed filming on that section of the road. We must have filmed the car chase scene today.
You need to reapply, this is how you know when.
At that time, the executive producer finally breathed a sigh of relief, but it was still over, and I had not yet passed the level.
Real car chases all use long shots, requiring actors to perform in person, and all are done by stuntmen. The actors only need to show their faces in close shots.
I really want to say something, but I don’t have any friendship with Chen Rong and the eight of them. It’s even the first time that the eight of them have spoken to each other today.
What does it mean now, to create a fait accompli and then force you to submit?
Director Xiao Wei said with a pale face: "When can we arrive?"
Sonny turned his back, and Martin and Aston also told the actors their own scenes. Everyone among the eight people understood that guy and left me alone.
I glanced at Chen Rong and Aston. The seven of them thought for a while and nodded slightly towards me.
"What do you do? You only applied for one day."
David also rushed over at that time. In the same sense, those producers are all in my hands. If there is a problem now, you have to solve it.
"Temporary vehicles? Where did he get temporary vehicles from? He can't even think about using Toyota or Ford to fool you."
"Come on, the driver said the truck overturned..." The executive producer looked anxious.
The eight protagonists of the "Traffic Light" group looked at each other, and then all looked at the director and executive producer.
The executive producer's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Director Xiao Wei was silent, no one dared to speak. As the eight people involved, we all looked at the executive producer, commandeered your car, have you asked?
"Damn."
Exciting gunfights, sexy beauties, beautiful scenery and modern luxury cars are essential elements, but these are not enough to attract people to leave the theater and buy tickets.
Originally, in my imagination, Swagwindi should be the leader, followed by a small group of Audi brothers.
Several leading actors were already in place, and Sonny distributed guns to everyone. The highlight of today was the car chase, so apart from us, there was no stunt team or demolition team.
We also thought that the executive producer would actually give us the idea.
A long time ago, Director Xiao Wei finally made a decision, and I still have no replacement plan in my mind.
"How's it going over there?"
Executive Producer: "Mainly a villain's vehicle."
When David spoke, Chen Rong could pretend to hear him again.
