Chapter 106

Laughing so happily these days, what's there to be happy about?

In New York's Central Park, the crew had just entered the break. Duke looked at Scarlett Johansson who was bringing him coffee with a smile, and always felt that something was wrong. Since we had dinner together that night, she seemed to be in a good mood. Especially when looking at Naomi Watts, there is always an inexplicable smirk.

Because you promised to take me to the Super Bowl with you.

Pulling her blond hair, the little girl lay on the back of Duke's chair, When the godmother came over yesterday, she promised to bring me into the infield with me.

You're not being honest, Scarlett. Duke knew it was all bullshit, and pointed at her. Liar kids get longer noses.

Then... let me tell the truth.

Eyes rolled twice, Scarlett leaned over and whispered into Duke's ear, Because you've been nice to me recently, you're happy so I'm happy.

Really? Duke couldn't believe it.

Hey, you are my brother. The little girl pouted in dissatisfaction, Of course I am happy if you are happy.

Duke nodded despite still not believing what the sly little guy was saying, and he treated all actors equally while filming, whether it was the physical Naomi Watts or the close family. Scarlett Johansson will not receive any special treatment.

You have time now, don't you? Scarlett turned to the front of the chair, grabbed Duke's sleeve, and pulled him up, There is also a film crew here, let's go over and take a look.

Along the bank of Central Park, Duke was pulled by Scarlett Johansson and walked forward. Not too far, he saw cameras set up and a bustling crowd. In fact, when he first entered the venue today, Duke found Another crew was also filming here, but Central Park has always been a popular location for Hollywood movies, and there is a distance between the two sides, so they did not come to visit curiously.

I also auditioned for this crew last year.

Standing on the periphery of the crowd, Scarlett pointed to a fat man behind the camera, That's the director, because I wasn't old enough, I was brushed off by him in the first round of auditions.

Is it him? Duke suddenly became interested in this crew.

It's him, a Frenchman, confirmed Scarlett Johansson. He ended up picking another girl from New York!

Look, it's that girl.

I don't know when, Scarlett jumped on the stone bench next to her, pointed to the little girl who left the crowd and walked under a big tree, and said, She is very tricky, and the fat director also eliminated her because of her age. Now, she has the cheek to stop the director...

The little guy grumbled about a big pass, obviously unbalanced by the results of last year's audition.

Honey, opportunities are always up for grabs.

After watching the filming for a while, Duke lost interest, pulled Lascarlett, and walked back, Especially in Hollywood.

The little guy next to him seems to have enough hearts, but compared to the one in the back that was once rumored, it is not enough to look at at all.

I also want to fight for a chance. Scarlett trotted from behind to catch up and grabbed Duke's sleeve, Director Rosenberg, may I still have a chance to appear in your movie?

It depends on my mood.

The shooting of Independence Day went better than expected, and gradually came to an end, Duke was also in a good mood, and it was rare to make a few jokes, If you can make me see you, the first thing that comes to my mind is to be happy, not I'll think about it because of your mischief.

Oh, I see. The little guy followed Duke's footsteps and kept nodding his head, I will try my best to play a serious, hard-working and cute girl in front of you.

play? Duke turned his head to look at the smiling Scarlett, shook his head, and walked towards the crew. In fact, lively, naughty and smart girls are cute most of the time.

Back to where the crew was, after a simple adjustment of the camera position, Duke started shooting again. There were not many scenes in Central Park. Except for the framing, there were a few transition scenes that were not particularly important, and the shooting was not too difficult. It's not going to be smooth. After all, this is Central Park. There are tourists from all over the world, and the onlookers often bring some unexpected troubles to the crew.

Maintaining order is sometimes a headache, especially for tourists from other places. If you suddenly press the camera, the flashing light will be enough to cause a scene to be overturned and restarted.

Then there are the reporters. Although the reporters tacitly abide by the rules of not disturbing the filming of the crew, Duke is no longer the director who was unknown at the beginning, especially the global box office of Brave Island has slowly passed the $390 million mark. , is hitting $400 million, enough to put him in the spotlight of the entertainment media.

In order to promote the needs, under the promotion of Warner, Duke will also say a few words to the media after filming, throwing some fierce materials to attract attention.

The publicity of a commercial film usually reaches its peak about half a month to a week before its release, but the entire publicity process will never rely solely on a certain media and publicity methods, even if it is viral marketing that has been mythed by countless people later. The proclamation plan of the film is a long and complicated process. Any star or major director is just a pawn in the propaganda. Individuals will never have a decisive role, and teamwork is the eternal theme of the propaganda war.

The main publicity plan for Independence Day is the upcoming Super Bowl. Duke flew back to Los Angeles after filming. After fully communicating with the special effects production department, he edited a 30-second video. Advertising trailer.

Because of the chain effect brought by Brave to the Dead Island, the trailers of many films this year will appear in the halftime advertising time of the Super Bowl, including True Lies, The Lion King and other Duke Very familiar name.

In February, Duke returned to New York, and the filming of Independence Day was drawing to a close. This film, which was prepared in September, did not actually spend much time on the actors' shooting, and if the actors' performances were put In front of professionals, it can only be described as appalling, especially the exaggerated and funny style of the hero Will Smith. Even if the film is far from being released, Duke can imagine that he will definitely be criticized by film critics. not worth.

However, these are not important. This is a collection of vulgar elements in the summer file. Almost all the vulgar plots used in the summer file can be found in Independence Day.

The main actors of the crew left one by one. When the filming entered the final scene, in addition to the staff of various departments, the crew only had more than a dozen stuntmen and a group of extras called up in New York. Duke brought These guys came down to Eighth Avenue in Manhattan to shoot the final scene.

Grace...

Standing at the intersection of the temporarily blocked Eighth Avenue, Duke called all the stuntmen together, You drive a police car...

Duke took these people to the center of the intersection. The police car is parked here. After you get off, look up at the sky in surprise.

clear.

The middle-aged stuntman nodded and followed Duke forward.

As he walked across the road, Duke pointed to each location and explained, Three taxis and two cars rear-ended! Pay attention to the strength of the collision!

After turning around the prepared stunt vehicle, the group returned to the intersection. Duke pointed to the truck on the left and said, Martin, pay attention to the signal, and then come out and hit the police car after seeing the signal!

After the other party responded earnestly, Duke went to the place where the recording and filming crews were, John, the old way is to install the camera on the car, especially the truck. Lana, live recording, I want the most realistic one. Crash.

Adjusting the camera position, measuring the route of the car, and explaining the precautions to several 'passer-by' actors, Duke, as in the past, did not take it easy before shooting. He had been busy for nearly two hours before returning to the director's monitor.

Duke, you need to hurry up. Sofia Coppola dismissed the representatives of the New York City government and came over to remind, New York will be off work in two hours.

This is the most crowded Manhattan in the world. Duke naturally knew that the relevant government departments could not give him too much time. After asking various departments, the filming kicked off.

A police car came quickly, and seemed to see something incredible. It suddenly braked. The police officer jumped out of the car, looked up at the sky in amazement, and walked forward unconsciously. A taxi behind did not have time to brake and hit the police car. , and then more cars collided, and a series of rear-end collisions inevitably occurred.

Just when the police officer just walked out of the range of the police car, a truck rushed out of the intersection and knocked the police car into the air.

Duke didn't stop and looked at the monitor seriously. The collision, confusion and panic were all happening according to the expected plan. The cameras scattered all over the place, catching the passersby and actors after seeing the alien spaceship. reaction.

Cut!

Finally, Duke called to stop, and the cluttered Eighth Avenue was instantly quiet, and although there was a shutdown party after the Super Bowl weekend, the crew could say it was done with its mission.

There is no shouting excitement, no intimate hugs, and some just a touch of routine applause. Every Hollywood crew always conceals countless contradictions, and Independence Day is no exception, but with the disbandment of the crew , many of the contradictions suppressed by Duke have also become clouds of the past.

Under the urging of the city government representative, the crew hurriedly organized the equipment and venue. Duke personally sent the film into a bank vault before returning to the hotel where he was staying, preparing to temporarily go on vacation and fly to Atlanta to participate in the annual event. The North American rave extravaganza - the Super Bowl.

And, of course, the Super Bowl halftime lingerie catwalk.
