Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

On the set, Kevin is watching with appreciation, watching Jet Li and Johnson fighting with the villain's men.

This is an important factor in the success of the film.

The fight scene.

The rehearsed movements in advance, with the cooperation of Johnson and Jet Li, are wonderful in the camera.

For this fight scene, Kevin prepared four cameras, and shot all angles in multiple directions without dead ends.

The fighting style of Hurricane Rescue, consistent with Mission Impossible, belongs to the outlier in Hollywood, and is the kind of fist to flesh.

This time, Kevin is also ready to make a little force by editing.

Increase the sense of substitution.

Make the fist feel as if it is right in front of you.

In Kevin's memory, this type of movie, as long as the action scenes are filmed well, there is really no loss.

Of course, this time the cost of hurricane rescue is actually very low.

That's 60 million dollars.

The original hurricane rescue cost only $25 million.

In addition to the salaries of Jet Li and Johnson, as well as the actors, the overall cost is still much higher than this French film.

This money, naturally, is not used in vain.

The protagonist wants to defeat the gangsters in many countries around the world, and come to New York line by line.

The various framings in this, train stations, airport stations, copy a little bit of Jackie Chan scenes.

Kevin is nothing less.

This one hundred and forty minutes is a long and extraordinary movie, but the fast-paced horse has no connotation.

It is to fight all the way, kill all the way, with absolute strength, tell the bad guy what will happen if he moves his daughter.

What Kevin has to do is make this movie a meme.

There are a series of movie memes on the Internet, such as Don't Touch Keanu Reeves' Dog, and Guo Dastatham's Express.

Kevin now has to add Youlan's daughter, or Jet Li's daughter.

As for Yulan, it is the name of the protagonist in the movie, and here, Kevin directly applies the name of the protagonist in the Universe Wanted Order.

To be honest, Kevin loved that movie to death.

Unfortunately, this kind of theme is not the mold of the public, and it can be filmed, but it cannot be shot by Kevin.

Because Kevin knows that the ceiling of this kind of movie is too low for Kevin in his current situation.

If you make a movie with an investment of 30 million US dollars, you will end up with 100 million US dollars, although you will not lose money, but I don't know how many people will sing about him.

Although he didn't care very much, he had to worry a little bit.

His Steve Kevin's golden sign can't be broken so easily.

"Card!"

After repeating the shooting a dozen times, it was determined that there were not too many flaws in the shot, or that some imperfect action scenes could be eliminated through editing.

The scene to be filmed today is basically over.

When the crew was packing up, Zhang Yimou came.

Kevin also came to a high-end restaurant at the invitation of Zhang Yimou.

Of course, if it is high-end, it is a few hundred dollars per person.

No way, Zhang Yimou is not rich, and he almost cut off his income during his appearance, and he is eating his old capital.

Kevin said that he would be given a fixed salary, and he righteously refused.

As a person who plays art, this basic self-esteem is still there, not to mention that with his identity, he rashly accepts this money and returns to China with a bunch of censorship is enough for him.

For Zhang Yimou to invite only this level of restaurant, Kevin has no opinion.

He belongs to the kind that can be eaten expensive and cheap can be eaten.

Of course, a meal for a few hundred dollars is actually not cheap in any way.

After taking a seat, Zhang Yimou handed Kevin a movie project book with a thoughtful face.

and a script.

"Kevin, can you help me see this project, is there a play?"

Chinese's habit has always been to talk about things at the dinner table, and so is Zhang Yimou, so is Kevin.

Therefore, for Zhang Yimou's actions, Kevin is not surprised at all.

After ordering some dishes, Kevin picked up Zhang Yimou's script and read it.

What catches your eye is the three big characters of Journey to the West.

Just these words, Kevin knew that Zhang Yimou still listened to the words.

As the most well-known IP in the mainland region, there is no one.

Zhang Yimou rubbed the heat right.

It depends on what tricks he can shoot the Journey to the West.

With this thought in mind, Kevin carefully studied the script.

····

The entire script describes a complete story in detail, and the section of Lion Moose Ridge is taken.

Of course, this is only the background of the journey to the west.

In this scripted worldview, demons feed on people.

In Lion Moose Ridge, people are just meat raised by demons, and in such a day-to-day time, people are almost numb.

But there is a hope for that one percent of humanity.

Legend has it that the Bodhisattva once came here and informed the people that a holy monk would come here with his three disciples to destroy these demons and set the people free.

Seeing this, Kevin nodded.

But America's favorite thing is to shout the slogan of freedom.

At this point, Zhang Yimou did not learn in vain, just rush this, the box office is millions of dollars is not a problem.

Don't be exaggerated.

Under lax education, do not overestimate the IQ of Americans.

As long as you find the hi points of ordinary Americans, it is really not difficult to trick them into entering the cinema.

Immediately afterwards, the holy monk really came, but he did not bring an apprentice.

Instead, three laps were brought.

Those who take these three circles will become his apprentices and defeat the demons entrenched here.

····

Looking at this magic modified version of Journey to the West, Kevin is very satisfied.

It's not that the plot is very, very good.

But its core, in fact, is still the American set, but covered with a mysterious cloak from the East.

That's the core.

Really take the oriental set, the American audience can't understand it at all.

Just like some American movies in the future, in fact, the mainland can't understand the same reason.

Only the simplest and simplest, some elements passed by the whole world, can be killed all over the world.

"Not bad, but is ten million dollars enough for this movie?"

"It's not enough, that's why I asked you to see if this script works, and if it works, see if you can increase investment."

This trip, Zhang Yimou is fully prepared for him, and when the time comes, he will return to the mainland to shoot, which can save costs on the largest scale.

Of course, this is part of it.

In terms of special effects, he came to an entire art team in order to make the special effects company make an original taste of oriental mythology.

And not the magic movies of the West.

Beautiful filming locations, special effects featuring oriental mythology, and a core story in line with American values, plus a layer of westward journey skin.
