The coffin was slowly placed in the endless depths of the yellow sand.
Afterwards, the coffin lid slowly closed. In order to make the movie more realistic, the entire coffin except for the movable shooting area, which is a wooden wall with movable and removable wooden boards, allows the camera to rotate 360 degrees around Will Smith for shooting.
They are all built according to the rules of real coffins.
Will Smith was lying in the coffin, silently looking at the sky above. After receiving his confirmation, Zhou Yang asked the staff to slowly close the coffin lid.
Darkness gradually swallowed up Will Smith's whole body. When the coffin lid was completely closed, Will Smith felt out of breath for the first time.
Narrow, claustrophobic, dark, suffocating...
This is a true portrayal of something buried deep underground.
Will Smith touched the coffin lid and pushed the upper part, and then found that he couldn't push it at all.
Then the coffin on the other side was slowly lowered, and the wooden wall between the coffins was slightly pulled away.
Will Smith's coffin is relatively large and can still be moved around, but Zhou Yang's coffin is smaller and cannot be moved around at all, and can even barely accommodate a camera.
"start!"
After Zhou Yang nodded, Will Smith felt the sound of yellow sand falling on the coffin lid.
Time passed little by little, and the sound of falling sand became softer and softer.
Zhou Yang looked at Will Smith seriously: "Mr. Smith, we are buried three meters deep underground. It is easy for various emergencies to occur. The oxygen can only be supplied for five hours at most... If we are not rescued in time, we will
There is a high probability that he will really die."
Although Will Smith asked Zhou Yang to shoot this way to get the best effect, when he heard Zhou Yang's serious expression and slow and quiet voice, Will Smith instantly began to feel uneasy.
The feeling above ground and underground were completely different, especially when Will Smith began to lose the sound of falling sand, that instinctive fear suddenly struck his heart.
However, fear is the best nourishment for acting. It allows people to break through their limits and present a character and all the emotions an actor should have.
"let's start?"
"Wait a minute, the burial over there shouldn't be finished yet..."
In the small space, after Zhou Yang finished playing with the camera, an inexplicable feeling suddenly flashed through his heart.
This movie is very important to him. It is a summary of what he has learned over the past year. He can direct the movie in his own way, control the direction of the entire plot, and match the happiness of the movie characters.
Anger, sadness and fear.
When he was filming the first movie in his life, "Under the Mine," he was still in a state of ignorance. He didn't understand the industry, so he could only rely on the memory in his mind and strictly required the actors to achieve the level he remembered.
This is a character state, and the filming process is almost controlled by other members of the crew. In the end, it can be said that Feng Kai was helping.
He is a learner!
When filming "The Crow", he was an actor. He was immersed in the role and basically didn't care about how to shoot or how to achieve the state...
"Saw" was supposed to be a time for Zhou Yang to show off his skills and test his learning achievements, but the tragedy was that Christian took over the director's seat not long after he directed it. From the filming to the end of the movie, although Zhou Yang
Yang had always participated, but as he continued to take pictures, he found that he had become an insignificant figure.
so……
Strictly speaking, "Struggle" is the first film he personally directed and shot!
Time passed bit by bit.
Zhou Yang heard the faint voice from the walkie-talkie. After listening to the voice, he picked up the camera, slowly opened the cover of the camera, and turned on the light on the camera. After finishing the lighting, he quietly crawled down and pointed the lens at Weir.
Smith's dark face, after applying light, the outline of Will Smith began to appear on the originally dark face. He slowly moved the camera forward slightly, and after confirming that he could capture Will Smith's facial expression, as well as some of the subtle details
After the change, he nodded with satisfaction.
Then he recalled shooting plans in his mind. After deciding on the direction, he finally looked at Will Smith.
"Mr Smith!"
"Act One, Begin."
Will Smith nodded when he heard Zhou Yang's voice, then slowly lay down in the coffin and closed his eyes.
Vaguely, he seemed to be able to hear the thumping sound of his heart.
……………………
In the office.
Django silently watched the pre-sale tickets for "Roboman".
The pre-sale tickets for "Roboman" were fully booked in the first few days, but six days after its release, the pre-sale tickets began to decline sharply, and now only less than half of them are left...
Although we know that this is the norm for a movie, even a blockbuster movie such as "Superman" will see a decline in pre-sale tickets a week after its release, let alone his "Mechanical Man".
But……
When he saw that the total box office of "The Golden Guard" during its six days of release was only over 10 million less than his own "Roboman", he inevitably felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
The total investment for this film is only 7 million. Even if the publicity and distribution expenses are included, the total investment is only 10 million at most!
This kind of investment and this kind of box office are simply crazy, and even rare in the history of Chinese movies.
But unfortunately, all of this happened in front of his eyes...
He went to see the pre-sale tickets for "The Golden Guard" with mixed emotions.
The daily pre-sale tickets of "The Golden Guard" are also decreasing, but judging from the pre-sale ratio, the stickiness is stronger than that of "Roboman".
One after another, an even more ridiculous idea appeared in Jiang Ge's mind unconsciously.
The daily box office of this movie in the future may be the same as his "Roboman".
"call!"
He took a long breath.
At this moment, his phone rang.
"Director Jiang..."
"What's up?"
"The movie "Struggle" has only one actor..."
"What did you say?" Jiang Ge's eyes widened.
"This movie is starring Will Smith, but in the preparation news in China, there is only one Will Smith. The filming cost of the movie in the preparation is indeed 50,000, but..."
"But what?"
"Zhou Yang said in front of the media that it was 50,000 US dollars, but the preparation information in the Huaxia Film System was that it was 50,000 yuan. He did not accept investment from investors, but he did accept an advertising fee. The other party was
A copycat mobile phone company just established a few months ago...the boss was once the coal boss of "The Bottom of the Mine", and the specific amount is 50 million yuan..."
Jiang Ge heard the assistant say these words on the phone.
Fifty million in advertising fees?
Jiang Ge's mind was spinning wildly, and various possibilities flashed through Jiang Ge's mind over and over again, only to be rejected one by one.
Maybe the actual investment in the movie is 50 million?
Immediately afterwards, he heard the other end of the phone continue to say: "Director Jiang, just now I received a message that the schedule of "Struggle" has been officially approved. It is March 24th. It will be released in "The Golden Armor".
" and "Interstellar" four days after the premiere... Moreover, Warner Bros. in the United States also took over the project of "Struggle". The news they heard there was that on March 24th, it would not only be released in China, but also in the United States.
Bian will also be released simultaneously!"
When Jiang Ge heard this sentence, Jiang Ge's expression began to become confused.
Is this guy really going to rely on this movie that took a week to be released in major theaters?
Invest 50,000 yuan and star alone...
If it was a few days ago, he would definitely laugh at Zhou Yang as a fool who tries to please others, but now...
Jiang Ge found that he couldn't understand what Zhou Yang wanted to do?
Could it be that he used this gimmick to make a fortune at the premiere box office and then left?
wrong!
This makes absolutely no sense
"Can you find out where others are now?"
"I can only find that he seems to have gone abroad, but I can't find the specific place..."
"Why can't I find it? Where's the news from the airport?"
"The news about Zhou Yang seems to have been deliberately hidden by some departments. The airport staff were very unusual and did not disclose where Zhou Yang went at all, as if it was a confidential matter..."
"Okay, please help me find out what this guy is going to do!"
Jiang Ge hung up the phone and frowned even deeper...
Ridiculous, nonsense, crazy?
An uncontrollable and extremely strong curiosity struck his heart.
He really wanted to know where Zhou Yang had gone, and even more wanted to know what Zhou Yang was going to do, and what ulterior secrets lay behind this series of inexplicable operations.
……………………
A movie king is a movie king.
Zhou Yang held the camera and looked at Will Smith, watching him perform everything in the script as required.
Even if I take a full shot, I can't find anything NG at all.
Three hours passed quickly.
The oxygen in the coffin seems to be getting thinner and thinner.
Will Smith felt a slight tightness in his chest.
"Mr. Zhou Yang, please put down the oxygen a little bit. I feel a little dizzy all over my body... I want to take a little rest."
"good!"
Zhou Yang took out his walkie-talkie and shouted a few words at it.
Then...
There was no sound from above.
Zhou Yang shouted a few more words, but there was still no response...
Zhou Yang seemed to be disbelieving and took out his special mobile phone and made a call on the ground.
Then……
Still no one answered the phone.
"Hey! Hey! Where is the person?"
"Hello?"
"Put down the oxygen tube, we are lacking oxygen now..."
"Hello?"
"anyone there?"
"anyone there?"
"..."
Will Smith saw Zhou Yang continuing to shout several times with the walkie-talkie as if he was annoyed.
but……
But there was still no response.
Zhou Yang's voice is getting more and more urgent!
Then he seemed extremely anxious...
"Mr. Zhou Yang, please stop joking. This joke is not funny at all. I'm really suffocating now..." Will Smith was frightened by Zhou Yang's appearance and said subconsciously.
"..."
Zhou Yang did not respond to him, but shouted repeatedly, his voice getting louder and louder, even deafening.
But there was still no response on the intercom.
Will Smith's expression changed drastically.
Zhou Yang's appearance didn't look like he was acting at all.
Could it be...
"boom!"
There was a burst of explosions all over the ground...
