After nearly two weeks of rest, Dr. Coles agreed to Ryan to go to the set, and repeatedly told him that it is best not to shoot action scenes in the near future. Ryan is not a fool, so he naturally and solemnly agreed.

It's just that the car hasn't driven the crew yet, so he answered the questioning call.

Ryan, Nami came to visit the class a few days ago. I heard she was injured when you were filming? Although Nicole's voice on the phone was more concerned, she was obviously dissatisfied, What's going on? I asked. She doesn't know Nami either.

It's okay, dear.

Luckily, Naomi Watts left before filming that day, otherwise it would have been in Nicole's ears. The soft tissue in the left foot was a little bit bruised, you know, filming the action scenes, inevitably, and now it's completely fine. already.

Ryan, you should tell me. Nicole's voice was a little low, don't worry about me, okay?

I'm sorry, Nicole. Ryan could only do the same.

Okay, I'll visit the class when I have time. Nicole probably thought it was just a trivial injury, so she ignored it, Have you received the documents I faxed?

Ryan turned to George, and Mr. Bodyguard nodded slightly before he said, Of course.

Okay, for now. I missed you, dear.

I miss you too, Nicole.

Hanging up the phone, George has already handed over the documents Nicole mentioned, Received three hours ago.

Nodding his head, Ryan carefully turned it over. The contents of the file were all related to the movie.

The North American box office of The Matrix has now reached 200 million US dollars. Although the number of remaining theaters is less than 1,000, the North American market still has some potential to be tapped. At the same time, it will be released in overseas markets one after another. There has been a worldwide hacking craze. As of September, overseas markets have also contributed more than 200 million US dollars at the box office, making the movie a big hit.

With the success of this film, the Wachowski brothers have entered the ranks of Hollywood's first-line directors. They asked the producers to invest more post-production costs on the second and third films. The Weinstein brothers verbally acceded to their request,

As for the specific number, it will be discussed with Ryan.

This is easy to do. After the first film was a big hit, Jenkins Films restarted negotiations with advertisers, and the increased sponsored advertising fees were invested in film production.

Below the document about The Matrix is the box office report of The Mummy. The film has now landed in North America for two weeks, and has taken more than 55 million US dollars and nearly 31 million US dollars, respectively. The North American box office alone has the potential to recoup the total cost of $95 million.

And Stephen Sommers, the director who switched from Disney to Jenkins Pictures. He has achieved the most brilliant performance since he started filming, and now he is visiting the high-level executives of Jenkins Films, and wants to start the production of the second film as soon as possible.

I heard Michael Eisner replaced the head of the Disney editorial team because he rejected Sommers director. George, who was sitting next to Ryan, said. And the so-called listening, the source must be Garcia.

Notify Julie and let Stephen Sommers come up with the script as soon as possible. Ryan must be cautious about the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars. Where can you easily let go of the script.

Over the years, in addition to serving as a personal bodyguard, George has also served as Ryan's assistant. One by one records his decision.

In the end, it is an invitation, but it is not really an invitation. After all, Death is Coming is a movie jointly invested by Jenkins Pictures and Tom Hanks. Big Tom took great pains to invite him for his son's future. Ryan at the premiere of the film.

Ryan calculated the time, if the next shooting goes well, it should be in time.

Just like when Orlando Bloom returned from injury, the spare crew of the crew held a welcome ceremony for Ryan, especially the elder Peter Jackson invited from the Maori, and he was still entering the huge temporary photography In front of the shed, pray for him by dancing.

Hi Ryan...

welcome back.

Our king has returned.

Orlando Bloom, Elijah Wood and others greeted him one after another. When Ryan walked in front of Charlize Theron, the South African Diamond gave him a big hug without hesitation.

Wow

These guys, who were afraid that the world would not be in chaos, made a strange cry.

Are you sure there's no problem. Charlize Theron ignored those people and asked Ryan with concern.

There is no problem with filming literary dramas. Ryan showed a calm expression, as if in this way, he told the gossip guys that he and the woman opposite him were normal.

But you're going to ride a horse!

This is the largest of the studios, with huge blue screens hanging from front to back and left to right. Hundreds of New Zealand soldiers and extras are wearing make-up, from what they're wearing, it's the knights of Lohan and Gondor. Soldier.

Don't worry, it's just a problem for me. Ryan patted Charlize's hand, I'm going to make up.

With the assistance of the stylist, the mail, boots, beard, leather jacket and black cloak, as well as the indispensable holy sword of Nasir, appeared on Ryan's body one after another, and he stood in front of the huge mirror, which could It was Aragorn's neatest dressing up after entering the crew, and the holy white tree on his chest showed his identity and status at the moment - the commander-in-chief of the last allied army of the human race, King Eliza!

When he came to the set set in the studio, Ryan raised his head, and it was still a flat blue screen. This kind of shooting has gone through too many times, and the black door looks like it needs to be added in post-production.

Brigo, my old friend, long time no see.

Ryan stroked the red horse's forehead, the horse snorted softly, and he went to his comrades next to him, who were ready.

Need a test shot, Ryan? asked Peter Jackson from behind the camera.

No, Peter, I think I'm in good shape now. Ryan jumped on his horse confidently, and Ian McLean's voice came from beside him, If you can't make it once, all of us will have lunch. It's up to you.

What if there is a problem with them? Ryan pointed to the soldiers and extras who were disguised as soldiers. Their number was obviously not enough, and the remaining ones had to be added later by CG.

Orlando Bloom grabbed the words, That's still yours.

Okay, let's hope it doesn't go wrong.

In fact, Ryan wasn't worried about this, these people had been rehearsing for a long time for this scene in front of the black door.

Scenario 762, Act 23, start now! the assistant director finally shouted to start.

Hundreds of soldiers were waiting. They seemed to be the most terrifying thing in the world. One by one, they showed expressions of fear. Many people even started to retreat unconsciously. They seemed to expect the end of the war. Down to face - death.

Is death scary? Even if they are warriors who have gone through the defense of Minas Tirith, they are still afraid.

Stand your ground! Hold your ground!

Ryan hit his horse and swung his sword, shouting anxiously to his phalanx, inspiring the morale that was most needed at this time, and he rode his horse back and forth in front of the formation.

At this moment, he seemed to have become the real King Eliza.

Warriors of Gondor and Rohan! My brothers! he shouted, shaking his sword. I have the same fear in your eyes!

Maybe one day, human beings will lose their courage, and our congregation will betray and leave, and it will be a complete defeat, but it is definitely not today!

Maybe one day, evil will triumph over justice, and the human world will be destroyed, but not today!

Today we will fight to the death! In order to protect everything you cherish in this world, fight to the end, human beings from the West!

Ryan gently pulled on the reins of Brigg, and the burgundy horse stood up, his long sword held high, and there was a sound of swords being drawn from behind.

As Peter Jackson stopped, the audience burst into warm applause. Although this was a pre-set line, Ryan used his voice, expression and few actions to show the momentum of fighting to the death.

“Very wonderful presentation!”

When he slowly dismounted, Elijah Wood was the first to come over, with a very funny baby face, Your Majesty, please accept the allegiance of a hobbit.

Putting the holy sword of Nasir on Elijah Wood's shoulder, Ryan put on a serious look and said, I officially canonized you as a knight's squire, and from today you can live in a stable with Brigg. , Mr. Frodo Baggins.

This is really the top treatment. Elijah Wood muttered.

The people around laughed, and similar jokes often happened during the filming.

The only pity is that this shot passed once.

Just as Orlando Bloom's words fell, Peter Jackson's voice rang out, Orlando, do you want us to waste a whole day on this shot?

No, no, Peter, that's not what I meant. Orlando Bloom explained quickly, I'm sorry that our free lunch is gone.

These guys! Ryan couldn't help shaking his head and turned to the fat director, Peter, is there a shooting assignment at night?

No.

After Peter Jackson shook his head, Ryan said loudly, Okay, there's no lunch, I'll pay for the bonfire party tonight!

Wow, Ryan is so generous. Someone shouted.

George!

Ryan made a gesture to Mr. Bodyguard in the distance, George nodded knowingly, took out his mobile phone and started dialing. To be continued. .
