"No, how is it possible? Mr. Christian has been preparing for "The Lamb" for so many years, and there is absolutely no way he will give up..."
"But... why does it feel like he cares more about the movie "The Departed" than "The Lambs"? We left without filming. Damn it, do you know how long he delayed us? Three months, a whole
Three months, do you know how we got here in these three months?"
"Sorry, but please believe me, please believe Mr. Christian, he will be here soon!"
"I've heard similar words more than a hundred times! You call Mr. Christian now!"
"..."
On the set of "Lamb".
A group of actors looked at assistant director Rody bitterly.
Roddy was sweating profusely, smiling so hard that the muscles on his face were stiff, but he had to continue to "deal with" these actors.
He has already cursed Christian to death in his heart!
This director is too unreliable.
"Lamb" has been in preparation for nearly five years...
After the crew was almost ready, it was stuck for nearly three years because they couldn't find suitable actors.
Finally, every actor was in place, and the filming of the movie finally started...
Hey, halfway through the filming, because the shooting conditions were not right, I was stuck for nearly three months.
For three months, the actors in the "Lambs" crew had nothing to do all day long. They only watched the assistant director Roddy walking in and out, and the prop master moved the props in and out over and over again, but they could not see anything from the director Christian.
shadow.
At first it was said that we would stop for ten days and then start shooting after making some adjustments. They tolerated it and they understood.
Later, it became a one-month pause, and they endured it again. Maybe Christian was holding something back.
Gradually it has become more than two months, and they are still enduring it. I feel that it is understandable for a famous Hollywood director like Christian and a famous European director to take longer to adjust!
until!
They heard that Christian went behind their back and spent less than three months filming "The Departed" with a little-known Chinese director.
After "The Departed" was released and achieved good box office success, they finally couldn't bear it anymore and even felt a sense of betrayal!
What is this thing going to do?
……………………
"In the corner where the light cannot shine, there is a suffocating darkness..."
"In the darkness, many things happened, and there were many respectable victims..."
"They used their lives to block the roar of darkness, and protected each and every weak life amidst the gunfire..."
"However, their names cannot appear openly in the news or newspapers. They have even been buried underground for many years and no one knows who they are!"
"Superman has a body of steel and protects the city, but after all, they are in the movie..."
"In reality, they are the real superheroes..."
"Salute to the heroes!"
"..."
Zhou Yang came to Los Angeles Plaza.
Countless movie fans almost surrounded the entire Los Angeles Plaza, and even the traffic was blocked.
Not far away, there is a high platform.
On the high platform.
Christian stood next to Olson, who was giving a series of speeches feverishly. Every time he gave a speech, there were bursts of cheers below.
Below the high platform, there were countless enthusiastic black movie fans and police cars. As Olson began to speak more loudly, several FBI officers got out of the police cars.
They did not come to arrest Olson, nor did they come to maintain security and order at the scene. Instead, under the witness of countless media, they stepped onto the high platform step by step, and hugged Olson tightly amidst cheers.
.
The morning sun in Los Angeles was so dazzling that Zhou Yang couldn't even open his eyes.
Zhou Yang squeezed in and finally reached a location not far from the high platform.
He saw the movie poster of "The Departed". On the movie poster, the handsome Hollywood movie star Mark held a pistol with a cold expression, and on both sides were the veteran movie stars Colt and Will Smith with sinister expressions.
They are the stars of "The Departed".
It was not until Zhou Yang watched the sample film of "The Departed" that he was shocked to discover that Christian and Zheng Jun had invited so many powerful actors to film "The Departed".
After the FBIs hugged Olson, Christian held their hands affectionately and said a series of words very passionately. Then he took out the medal, put it on the FBI's body, and walked out: "I declare
, we allocate part of our funds every year to support these "heroes" who protect the United States, thank you for your hard work!"
Shaking hands, taking photos, taking pictures...
Zhou Yang saw that after Christie finished a touching speech, Olson took the microphone again and began to continue his speech passionately. The content of his speech was all centered around the "American Dream" and "peace, fairness, beauty, and harmony."
.
Senator Olson's ability to control the field is so amazing that even Zhou Yang, a Chinese, couldn't help but get excited and wanted to roar after hearing Olson's speech, not to mention the audience below!
The roaring cheers and fanatical screams stung Zhou Yang's eardrums, and he couldn't help but stay away a little.
But Zheng Jun next to him was waving his hands very excitedly, his eyes as crazy as a madman.
Zhou Yang could not have imagined that...
The movie "Night Walker" was actually promoted in this way.
What's even more unexpected is that the publicity effect was so explosive that even Zhou Yang saw many reporters from the BBC TV station participating in it and cheering for Olsen crazily!
Polls show…
Olson's approval rating in late 2007 was amazing!
The support rate has skyrocketed from the initial 30 to more than 40, and it seems to be one step closer to the supreme throne!
A few hours later...
The speech ended when Christian and Olson got into the car.
Zhou Yang also got in the car and returned to the company.
Not long after returning to the company, Christian came over.
He was very happy after seeing Zhou Yang, gave Zhou Yang a tight hug, and then talked about his series of plans with great joy.
"Los Angeles is just the first stop..."
"The next stop is New York. We are already preparing to speak in Times Square..."
"Although it is very hard, I think it is all worth it. Over in New York, I will follow Will Smith..."
"Ha ha!"
Christian talked to Zhou Yang about his plans for the future.
Zhou Yang always felt that Christian was becoming more and more fanatical, like some kind of believer, and he had already placed all his treasure on Olson.
He pushed Olson to ascend to that supreme position, and he is the most loyal supporter in that position.
"Our SKY will become the ninth largest studio in Hollywood!"
He thinks about the future ambitiously.
I never thought about what would happen if I failed.
Zhou Yang suddenly felt that there was something very crazy in this guy's bones, something very dangerous.
"Mr. Christian, what about "Lambs"? Are you not going to shoot it?"
Zhou Yang finally interrupted Christian's words and frowned slightly.
He always felt that Christian started not doing his job properly since he met Olson.
He just heard from the assistant director Roddy that there seemed to be an internal riot in the entire "Lamb" crew, and the actors even wanted to smash the camera.
"..." When he heard this, Christian suddenly fell silent.
Then, as if he thought of something, he looked at Zhou Yang strangely. After looking at Zhou Yang, who felt a little hairy in his heart, he finally showed a smile, as if he was extremely satisfied.
"Mr. Zhou Yang, how about you take the photo?"
"What?" When he heard this sentence, his eyes widened.
Is this guy mentally sound?
"I asked Mr. Roddy to give you the script and shooting plan. Ah, I remembered it. I'm going to catch a plane right away. Sorry... I'll go over first. You can help me shoot a section first... Zhou Yang
Sir, your "Infernal Affairs" in China was sniped by "Superman 2". Even the American version of "Infernal Affairs" was squeezed out of the shelves by the team behind "Superman 2". You don't want "The Departed" to be like this.
Can a movie be as tragic as "Infernal Affairs"?"
"Mr. Christian, that's not what I meant, I meant..."
"Oops, I have to catch a flight. I'm sorry, please! If you don't understand something, you can call me at any time... Don't worry, as long as the filming is completed, your name will be on the film "Lamb" and I will be the assistant director.
Already..."
"..."
In the office.
The air conditioner whirred loudly.
Christian put the hat on his bald head, answered the phone, and left in a hurry.
Zhou Yang opened his mouth.
Before he could say anything, Zhou Yang's phone rang.
"Hey...Mr. Zhou Yang, Mr. Christian said that the work has been handed over to you? Can you come over now? These actors are going to break up the crew. Come over and film quickly!"
"No, Mr. Luo Di, I have to go back to China during the Mid-Autumn Festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon!"
"Dudududu!"
The call was eventually hung up.
Zhou Yang scratched his head...
After a wry smile, when I called Christian, his phone was already turned off.
………………………
August 18th.
The box office of "Superman 2" was released on the third day in China.
Although the box office has dropped a bit, it still maintains an astonishing figure of 50 million yuan!
Breaking 100 million in two days, breaking 150 million in three days!
The movie "Superman 2" is very likely to become China's first movie with a box office of over 900 million.
However……
James Li did not feel happy because of this data. Instead, he left China in a hurry and returned to the United States...
Christian and Congressman Olson's speeches for two consecutive days were extremely effective.
If we don't return to the United States, the influence of "Superman 2" in the United States will be "stealed" by the small-budget film "The Departed"!
"Damn it! This Chinese director!"
"How insidious!"
On the plane, director James Lee cursed Zhou Yang...
