Chapter 531 Don't win with plot

Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!

"Stop!" In the studio, Guilmo del Toro's shouts sounded, "Matthew, you're in a bad mood!"

Matthew sat in front of a New York map, quickly got rid of the character, looking at Guilmo del Toro behind the director's monitor, who waved to him, "You come and take a look."

"Okay." Matthew responded and strode over.

This shot was taken five or six times, and his emotional expression has always been a bit problematic.

Generally speaking, directors rarely let actors watch the shots, but Gilmore Del Toro does not pay so much attention to it, and Matthew never interferes in his work. The two worked very happily on the set.

Gilmo del Toro and Matthew came to him, pressed the play button, pointed to the screen and said, "You can only see disappointment, loneliness and pain on your face, without the persistence of being the last person!"

Looking at Robert Neville on the monitor screen, Matthew was silent for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "Do it again."

"No need to take a few minutes?" asked Guilmo del Toro.

Matthew shook his head slowly, "No, I think I've found that feeling."

"Ok." Gilmo del Toro raised his voice, "Each department is ready to shoot immediately."

Amid the shouts of Guilmo del Toro, Matthew returned to the main camera lens and sat on a chair hanging in front of the New York map wall again, quickly preparing for the shooting.

Nor did the assistant director be needed, Guilmo del Toro shouted in person, "Start filming!"

"On the first thousand and sixty days, we had a close contact with a nest today." Matthew began a monologue, his voice was low, transmitting the impact of the external environment on people. "Blood tests confirmed that I am still immune to air and contact-induced viruses, while dogs are still only immune to airborne viruses."

His voice was even deeper, with obvious disappointment, "The experiment failed again, and I still haven't found a vaccine..."

Speaking of this, Matthew fell into silence and lowered his head. His mood was extremely disappointed and terrible at this moment, just like the doomsday of one person and one city in the script.

But Robert Neville was able to survive in New York for more than 1,000 days alone and experienced countless experiment failures, but not easily being knocked down.

Matthew's previous few times had basically had problems here.

This time he used lines to guide emotional changes, "I will not give up, the vaccine test will continue."

While speaking, he slowly raised his head, "I can't transfer my immunity to the infected person, the kv virus is very..."

Matthew's expression gradually returned to normal, nodding hard, showing an attitude of not giving up, and then said, "Very excellent! To defeat it is like looking for a needle in a haystack."

Having said that, he became depressed again, lowered his head and was silent for half a second, and said again, "By the way, the part about behavior, today a well-known infected person was exposed to the sun, which may be due to deterioration of brain function or fear of food deficiency."

In the last sentence, he said it in great pain, "They have lost human behavior. I think they are no longer humans, but have become a completely new species."

Gilmo del Toro shouted behind the director's monitor, "Stop! Good job, Matthew! This one has passed!"

Matthew easily got rid of the role. It is said that he was deeply involved in the role and could not extricate himself. He had never encountered it before. Perhaps this was related to the fact that he played normal roles of business types.

"Prepare for the next game!" Gilmo del Toro shouted again, "Shooting in fifteen minutes!"

When he arrived at the rest, Matthew took the cup of water handed over by Bella Anderson, took a big sip. Just as he sat on the chair, Bella Anderson said, "David Ellison just called. He had sent the ticket to the Victoria's Secret Show this year to the manor. The venue was held at the Kodak Theater. In addition to the Victoria's Secret Show, the ticket can also attend the post-show party."

"Give me a cell phone." Matthew and Bella Anderson asked for their cell phone, dialed David Ellison's number, and specifically said thank you.

The two had already made an appointment to go to this year's Victoria's Secret show together.

Although the Victoria's Secret show is not a top show, it is the best hunting ground for Matthew.

Matthew handed his phone to Bella Anderson, who put it in his work bag and reminded him, "Aziva Gosman came to the set to watch the filming today, and he also followed a director."

Since she became Matthew’s personal assistant, she has been learning and mastering various useful knowledge. “If I didn’t admit my mistake, the director who accompanied Aziva Gosman was Peter Borg.”

Matthew was stranger to the name, "Peter Borg?"

"The first directorial work was "The Bad Things" in 1998." Bella Anderson obviously remembered some of the man's resumes, "has directed "The Moment of Chasing" and "Midnight Light on the Weekend in recent years."

"I haven't heard of it." Matthew shook his head and asked, "What are he here to do?"

Bella Anderson has grown very fast in the past two years. "I just asked someone to ask. Aziva Gossman and Peter Borg have been observing you, but they are far away and don't know what they are discussing."

Speaking of this, she gestured with her eyes, "They are on the outside of the set and are looking here."

Matthew followed Bella Anderson's gaze, Aziva Gosman and the tall and thin middle-aged man were chatting and looking at the resting place.

The film has not been completed yet, so why did Aziva Gossman find another director, and it doesn't look like he was visiting the set.

"That script has been in Hollywood for more than ten years." The tall and thin Peter Borg whispered to Aziva Gossman. "The main reason is that there is no film company willing to invest in filming is that the story is weak."

He said without hesitation, "The plot of the existing script is very poor and must be overhauled. Even if it is overhaul, the risk is very high."

Aziva Gosmann did not answer his words, but said, "This type of film does not win with the plot."

Peter Borg had never been in contact with first-line commercial productions before. After thinking for a while, he said, "Maybe what you said makes sense."

"Don't care about the perfection of the plot and philosophical and humanistic thinking, this is a commercial film." Aziva Gossman raised his voice slightly, "There is no need for these things."

He has been in contact with Peter Borg for a while, and Peter Borg has been hesitating.

Aziva Gosman roughly knew what Peter Borg was thinking and said, "I know you are worried that failure may ruin your years of hard work. But Peter, what if I give you a popular star with a huge box office appeal?"

Peter Borg's eyes fell on Matthew, "Do you want him to play the leading role?"

"It's not just me," Aziva Gossman said directly. "Warner Brothers solemnly warned me that if the protagonist of the new film was not Matthew Horner, they would choose to give up production and distribution."

He glanced at Matthew and said, "You have read the script, we can make appropriate modifications. This script mainly highlights the charm of the male protagonist. No one is more suitable than Matthew Horner."

Peter Borg looked at the rest of the set and never spoke.

It’s not that Peter Borg is the only one, but Aziva Gosman thinks his style is the most suitable, so he said, “I wonder if you have seen the latest box office statistics of “The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta”?”

He didn't need to be a bad person - Borg replied, saying directly, "After now, the box office of "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" has exceeded US$250 million in North America, and the global box office has exceeded US$500 million. I wonder if you have watched this video?"

Peter Borg nodded slightly, "Look."

Aziva Gosman asked, "What do you think of the plot?"

"Uh..." Peter Borg hesitated for a moment, and said, "very average."

This is a polite statement. If he follows his true thoughts, the plot of this movie is simply shit.

"But "The Three Hundred Warriors" was a huge hit at the box office," Aziva Gossman said deliberately, "Director Zach Schneider became a celebrity in Hollywood."

He looked at Peter Borg and asked, "Why do you think this movie is successful?"

"The director's unique style and Matthew Horner..." Peter Borg instantly recalled the announcements issued by countless investigative agencies. Those people believed that Matthew Horner alone might have brought one-third of the box office revenue to "The Three Hundred Warriors of Spartans".

Aziva Gosman smiled, "It's not just the film and director that make actors, but there is an actor that can make directors. Matthew Horner is such an actor." He reminded him, "To this day, all the movies starring Matthew Horner has made great success, and all the directors who have worked with him have taken a crucial step forward in their careers."

Peter Borg was still staring at Matthew, and after a while, he said, "Matthew Horner is sure to star in this movie?"

"It's basically no problem," Aziva Gosman smiled and said casually, "Warner Brothers has communicated with him in advance, and he has no objection."

In fact, today's Warner Bros.'s personnel will have initially contacted Matthew Horner about this matter.

Peter Borg nodded seriously, "I'll go back and discuss with the agent."

Aziva Gosman said with a hint of warning, "The opportunity is rare, don't be too long."

"Well..." Peter Borg pondered for a moment, "I will definitely give you an answer before the weekend."
