Christian Bale remembers!
Some time ago, Legendary Pictures CEO Thomas Tull did approach him through his agent and asked him if he was interested in starring in the latest work of a Chinese film director.
Chinese film director…
Christian Bale immediately remembered three people, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, and Jiang Wen, who has a strong personal style.
But Thomas Tull said, neither!
The film director's name is Yang Hao. He is only 24 years old and has just graduated from the film school.
Upon hearing this, Christian Bale refused without even frowning.
In Hollywood, I am not the top star, but I am not reduced to starring in a young student's work, not to mention that this student is from China.
Thinking of who Yang Hao was, Christian Bale's curiosity arose.
Is this young student really so amazing?
Just as he was thinking about it, director Zhang Yimou spoke.
“Attention all actors!
According to director Yang Hao's suggestion, we slightly modified this scene, that is, during the escape of these young girls, there were explosive spots on the road, and there was more than one.
If an accident does occur on the filming set, then no matter how well-shot and awesome the movie is, the final result will be in vain.
The young staff member ran very fast. Even if he tripped over the bricks on the road, he still rolled forward.
…”
Yang Hao laughed again.
"Oh, hello Mr. Bell, I am Yang Hao."
"Yang, you are this!
Of all the film directors I've come across, you're the one who impressed me the most, except, of course, Christopher Nolan. "
Plant explosive points on the actors' escape route.
"Mr. Bell, you are right, but have you heard the explosion now? No, right? We just used a small trick to make these actresses think that the explosive spots will still explode when they are officially filming. , but it didn’t.”
The crew of "The Thirteen Hairpins" has a special effects team. After all, this movie will shoot a very long gunfight scene. Therefore, when Zhang Yimou announced the decision, the special effects team immediately planted five explosive spots on the shooting scene.
A dozen girls with disheveled hair ran over from the other side of the street. These girls looked frightened, and some of them even cried while running.
As soon as Zhang Yimou's voice fell on the intercom, the recorder at the shooting scene started talking.
"Are you really not afraid that they will be in danger? Because many of the girls here are exposed to the acting industry for the first time." Although he admired Yang Hao's methods, Christian Bale still raised his own questions .
"Uh... Mr. Bell is here." In front of a Hollywood superstar, Yang Hao was a little embarrassed by his girlfriend's passionate confession.
After he finished his demonstration, the staff of the special effects team acted quickly and replanted the explosives at the location where the explosion had just occurred.
Standing outside the shooting scene, Christian Bale only stared at this scene for two minutes before he knew he could pass it, and he could pass it in one shot.
"Mr. Bell, thank you for your candor. I have decided to use five years to improve my directing level to a level comparable to that of comrade Christopher Nolan."
"Haha..." Yang Hao laughed.
Li Chun, Han Xiting, and Sun Jia were originally unwilling, but when they saw that all the actors had passed, they could only carry their own baggage in the play and walked to the starting point.
No matter what happens, we must put people first.
"Action!"
"Aha...
"OK, all departments are ready. Let's start shooting now. Just try to get one shot!"
So, he frowned, touched his nose, and then quickly came to the other side and stretched out his hand forward.
In all his past and present lives, this was the first time that a Hollywood superstar extended a hand to him, and Yang Hao was a little happy.
Then came Li Chun, Han Xiting, Sun Jia and others.
"Director, can we stop filming? This will be dangerous!" Han Xiting, who felt a little scared, perhaps felt that she was Zhang Weiping's, protested.
Listening carefully, indeed, Christian Bale did not hear any explosions, so he immediately gave Yang Hao a thumbs up.
"no!"
Suddenly, there were rapid footsteps.
boom…
"Yang, planting explosive spots on the shooting scene really allows the actresses to act immersively. The frightened expressions on their faces are not staged at all, and they are running forward very fast.
"You're awesome, even better than at night!"
The two were chatting when suddenly, a person rushed over from the shooting scene, and then with lightning speed, he hung himself on Yang Hao's body.
"You tell me, Mr. Bell."
boom…
Because the speed is slightly slower, the bricks and tiles blown up by the explosion may hit him.
"ah…"
"Ha ha…"
boom…
"Woooo..."
"Yang, I'm Christian Bale, nice to meet you!"
Several bow-legged Japanese soldiers, holding big guns in their hands, chased quite fast. They chased a dozen girls while laughing unscrupulously.
"Mr. Bell, Yang Hao is my boyfriend and a famous film director in our mainland. He is going to Hollywood to film soon. I hope you can help me if you have the opportunity."
In this way, we can be regarded as the most realistic restoration of the actual situation on the day Jinling fell. "
But, I have a question? "
There were corpses lying around, and there were several wild dogs licking the blood from the corpses.
Ruins!
Don't run away, I will be gentle and treat you gently, haha..."
………
"Hey, it's okay. Christian Bale doesn't speak Chinese, so he can't understand what we're talking about." Ni Ni, who was smiling, kissed Yang Hao on the face, then got off him and turned to look at Christian Bale, speaking to him in English.
Zhang Yimou's face darkened and he went directly to the director's studio next to him.
Where there is first, there is second.
In order to allow these actresses to truly feel the power of these explosions, the staff of the special effects team also conducted demonstrations in person.
Bai Xue was the first to cry.
"Attention all actors, the explosion time between explosion points is 5 seconds. In other words, if you want to keep yourself safe, then when the director says to start shooting, you have to go crazy. run forward.
"elder brother!"
Zhang Doudou, Zhang Xinyi, Yuan Yang Junzi, Li Yuemin and others, led by Ni Ni, all stood at the starting point of the shooting scene one by one.
"Um?"
"Well, come on, sisters, we are actors. Since this scene requires it, we must devote ourselves to acting." As she said this, Ni Ni was the first to stand at the filming scene.
Flower girl, flower girl’s work!
As soon as Zhang Yimou finished speaking, everyone present opened their mouths. They thought of dogs, donkeys, horses, and even mental illness. The only thing they didn't expect was that Yang Hao would play like this...
"No problem!" Christian Bale smiled.
"But Ni Ni, what you said just now is that you are great. In fact, what I can understand is that it means very good. Well, in English, it means very good."
"Ha ha…"
As soon as Christian Bale finished speaking, Yang Hao put his arm around Ni Ni's shoulders and laughed.
