"Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is an action movie, and during the filming process, there will be no shortage of explosions and gun battles.

For example, the homes of the two protagonists in the film were turned into ruins by the explosion.

The original shot was taken at the end, and it wasn't a house that exploded, but a garage.

In order to pursue reality, Ryan modified the script a little, and made the explosion scene more spectacular with actual shooting in real life.

The only difficulty is that such an explosion method is not so easy to control

It took a lot of time to calculate and load the explosives alone, and in order to increase the explosion effect, the one-time explosion was changed into a continuous explosion.

In this way, the preparation time required will naturally not be too short.

"Jack, are you ready!" Ryan stayed away from the temporary house that was about to become a ruin, he didn't want to be affected by the explosion for a while.

"It's ready." Jack waved his hand at Ryan, "We'll guarantee continuous explosions in a while."

Ryan nodded, and once again asked all the crew to step back, leaving only a few photographers to shoot the explosion scene, and they will need to capture close-up shots later.

Cast members such as Brad Pitt and Charlize Theron hid behind the RV one after another, and the crew also hid far away.

Seeing that the preparation was almost done, Ryan asked Jack to detonate the explosives filled inside.

The next moment, the temporary house that had not been built for a long time turned into a huge flame and shot into the sky, and a series of explosions continued to sound.

Ryan was far enough away that he could still feel a wave of heat coming. Several photographers who were close could even faintly smell the smell of burnt hair.

Charlize Theron looked at the soaring flames in the distance, and subconsciously hid behind the RV, her ears buzzing, "This is too exaggerated!"

"With twice as much explosives as planned, the effect will definitely be exaggerated." Ryan looked towards the crew of "Saving Private Ryan", hoping that they would like this big firework.

"Next, there is another scene. The scale of the explosion is bigger than this."

"Okay, let's not talk about this, while the flames have not been extinguished, prepare to shoot the shootout."

Immediately after the explosion ended, the crew started filming again in front of the burning ruins.

For several days in a row, Ian Bryce didn't see anyone come to negotiate, "It seems that Ryan Gosling has changed the shooting location."

"At least it's good news for us."

"Better." Steven Spielberg didn't pay much attention to it.

Regarding Ryan Gosling's name, even Steven Spielberg couldn't ignore it.

In just a few years, he went from an ordinary horror film director to the owner of Orion Films in one fell swoop, producing two world-best-selling films one after another, and his income is enough to make anyone envious.

"Terminator 3," which was released last year, was second only to "Independence Day" at the global box office, making Orion Pictures a fortune.

This year's spring file has just started, and the North American box office of "The Sixth Sense" is close to 300 million US dollars. The global box office is expected to be no less than that of "Terminator 3". With only two films, Orion Films has achieved an impressive performance. commercial achievement.

If Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and James Cameron are representative figures of the older generation of Hollywood directors.

Then Ryan Gosling is a representative figure of the new generation of directors.

Therefore, on the premise that it does not involve its own interests, Steven Spielberg does not want to have conflicts with it. The pressure that DreamWorks needs to face is already great enough, and it is impossible to be an enemy of all Hollywood film companies.

Of course, if it involves his own interests, Steven Spielberg will never give in. He and DreamWorks have reached the edge of the cliff, and there is no way to retreat.

Just when Steven Spielberg came back to his senses and was about to start filming the night scene.

In the distance, there was a sudden loud bang, and then the flames shot up into the sky, like a mushroom cloud, illuminating the surrounding area brightly.

"What's going on!" Steven Spielberg's voice just came out of his mouth.

There was another explosion sound, one after another continuously, and it took a long time before it stopped.

After finally waiting for the sound of the explosion to disappear, there was another fierce gun battle in the distance.

This is not a gun from World War II, but the sound of all modern weapons, mixed with the sound of a slight explosion.

"Fa-k."

"They must have done it on purpose." Ian Bryce's face was a little ugly.

The last time they filmed an explosion scene, they made it impossible for the other party's crew to shoot. This scene before them is clearly a blatant revenge.

"I don't believe they can go on all night." Ian Bryce gritted his teeth.

Looking into the distance, Steven Spielberg suddenly had a headache. It seems that today he can only rest for one night, otherwise the whole crew would not be able to continue filming.

The sound of gunshots and explosions is okay, but at worst, it can be silenced in post-production. Besides, the filming of "Saving Private Ryan" was originally a war scene.

The real headache is the firelight coming from a distance.

At this time, another producer of the crew, Bonnie Barrett, came over, with a hint of anger on his face, and said: "The crew of Mr. and Mrs. Smith just sent a message. They decided to change the next plan. Filming locations."

To put it bluntly, I just won't play with you.

Ian Bryce was so angry that he was 100% sure that the other party must have done it on purpose, "I will tell Paramount this matter truthfully and file a complaint with the trade union."

"It's useless." Steven Spielberg shook his head, "Ryan Gosling also has a cooperation with Paramount, and Paramount won't get involved in a small matter, and the other party has decided to change the shooting location. "

Ian Bryce wanted to say something else, but Steven Spielberg waved his hand directly, "Notify all crew members to cancel tonight's shooting plan."

On the other side, Ryan just finished filming a very intense shootout scene, sat in the RV to rest, took a sip of wolfberry tea, and seemed to be in a good mood.

The unhappiness brought about a few days ago was returned to the other party tonight.

"Spielberg must be **** off by you, and you are not afraid that he will become angry." Sophia Coppola had a smile on her face.

"It's just a small episode, and Spielberg won't get angry because of it." Ryan shrugged, "Besides, Orion Pictures isn't afraid of competition."

Neither DreamWorks nor Orion Pictures will cause a storm for a small episode.

Besides, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" will not choose to be released in summer next year, while "Saving Private Ryan" in the previous life will be released in July.

There is almost no possibility of competition between the two films.

"How's your contact with Polygram!" Ryan asked suddenly.

"The release of "The Mind Game"?" Sofia Coppola was taken aback for a moment.

"I mean Polygram Entertainment," Ryan reminded.

The scale of Polygram Entertainment is not very large, but it has a large number of personnel and a bloated organization.

However, Polygram Films Entertainment has a large film library, such as "Four Weddings and a Funeral", "The Usual Suspects", "Trainspotting", "Two Smoking Barrels", "Fargo", " Death Row Walking" and other film copyrights.

Sofia Coppola finally came to her senses, her expression changed, and she stared at Ryan in disbelief~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Do you want to buy Polygram's video library? It is also rumored to be an overseas distribution channel established by PolyGram! "

PolyGram's North American distribution channel is almost dispensable, even worse than Orion Pictures.

On the contrary, PolyGram has established a global film distribution channel relying on its own record channel, which is eye-catching.

Right now, "The Sixth Sense" is still in theaters. The North American box office has exceeded 278 million US dollars, and the overseas box office has also reached 310 million US dollars. The global box office of the film is about to exceed 600 million US dollars. top three.

It is expected to bring a large amount of income to Orion Pictures again. It is definitely not enough to acquire Polygram, but the distribution channels are indeed more than enough.

Speaking of it, Ryan was somewhat depressed. "Terminator 3" met "Independence Day" and could only rank second in the North American annual box office list in 1996.

This year's "The Sixth Sense" met Cameron's "Titanic" again, and it could only once again rank second in the North American annual box office list.
