Made in Hollywood

"I think, if you have to add a meaning to this film, the meaning is that it successfully educated underage girls and their fathers."

Jiang Xiaojun paused, pointed at Ge's bald head and said, "Including future fathers like you."

"Huh?" Ge Bald looked at him.

"The movie is very simple and exciting. The most important thing is that it can give people a hint." Jiang Xiaojun lowered his voice and said, "For example, it can remind those troublemakers to listen to Dad and call Dad more. Don't casually strike up a conversation with strangers, and don't associate with bold classmates."

Hearing what he said, Ge Guangtou couldn't help laughing.

But Jiang Xiaojun didn't seem to be joking, and said, "The old men in the bureau should work with the Ministry of Education to release this movie in every middle school in every city across the country!"

"Xiaojun, you'd better save yourself." Ge Baltou seemed to remember something and persuaded him, "Be careful that those gentlemen make you unable to be an actor."

Jiang Xiaojun showed a wry smile and simply closed his mouth.

On the screen, when Brian was retrograde at a high speed by the Seine, and the god of death struck again and again, as the light of Elysium illuminated his increasingly resolute face again and again, the audience was all moved. easy to be understood.

With such a father, who doesn't feel sorry?

Of course, this is the case with every father. Even if they don't have the extraordinary skills of Brian, who was an American agent described in the play, they are the same in loving their children and making all the sacrifices for their children. ——Maybe everyone has different abilities, but parents are willing to go through fire and water for their children.

The so-called God blocks killing gods and Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, the driving force is estimated to be no more than the love of parents for their children.

It's an endless love, of course. There is only one kind of love in the world that is endless...

In this world, there is such a person, at a certain moment, they will transform. Sometimes they turn into gentle Santas; sometimes they turn into omnipotent superhumans; sometimes. They looked like cruel devils; sometimes, they licked the blood from the corners of their mouths and turned to smile.

Brian Mills in the film is such a person. He came to a foreign country alone, and killed himself in the seemingly romantic city of Paris. He first killed countless bastards and villains with a gun, and then One of them was tied to the electric chair and tortured. He shot at the ex-friend's wife without hesitation and threatened her. Hit him with another punch. In the end, he relied on his professional skills and left countless corpses and seriously injured people.

All of this is just to save a woman, a young woman. Save a young woman who is the cutest in his eyes.

Who do you think this man is?

Very simple, he is the father! The young woman he wants to save is his daughter who is more important than his life!

Leaving a mess in Paris, Brian is helped by his former colleagues. Returning to the United States from Paris with her daughter, the film ends there.

There was thunderous applause in the theater. Many in the audience stood up to applaud the film, and the screening ended, but Duke didn't leave, accompanied by Warner's publicist. He walked into the press hall next to him and was interviewed by media reporters.

Since he was the only one in the crew, all the problems inevitably fell on Duke's head.

However, compared with Europe and the United States, the entertainment reporters here are only in their infancy, and the questions they raise are not too tricky. They mostly focus on the movies that have just finished showing. With Duke's experience, they can deal with them. It's easy to get up too.

"Director Rosenberg, what do you think is the most important aspect of this film?"

Hearing this question, Duke thought for a moment and said, "The action effect that directly achieves the most effective purpose! This is related to the work behind the background of the film's protagonist, so the audience sees Brian's flexible sweeping. All obstacles."

A reporter stood up under the name of the host and asked, "When you filmed "The Matrix", you successfully introduced Chinese Kung Fu to Hollywood, and set off a kung fu craze in North America, but the The fighting techniques that Ryan uses are obviously not kung fu."

"It's not really kung fu."

Of course, Duke would not say that kung fu has begun to cause aesthetic fatigue in North America, and said casually, "Every actor has his own performance and movement style. My action guidance team is based on the characteristics of the actor Liam Neeson himself. , tailor-made his current fighting style, and Liam Neeson has also received a lot of training for a long time, because I want him to do the film's movements as much as possible himself."

"Of course I wouldn't let him jump off a bridge or crash a car," he added, "but Liam has a lot of fight scenes, so it takes a lot of time to practice. It's very demanding for him. , because I don't want the action to be too fast in the picture. In fact, Liam has really become strong in learning to fight."

There was a burst of laughter at the scene. Although Liam Neeson is not a big star in Hollywood, he is no stranger to the people here.

Then another reporter asked, "We noticed the inner struggle of the hero in the horrific torture scene in the film. How did you manage this scene?"

"It was really tense and scary on set," Duke said after a moment's consideration. "In the film, Brian found out that his daughter's best friend had been killed by a drug overdose, and he started thinking. He learned that things were the darkest. On the other hand, the instinct of being a father has swept away any concerns and depressions. So I think this scene is needed to make him lose his mind."

"Duke, in your experience, will Liam Neeson be the center of attention because of this film?"

"Liam has always been in the spotlight." Duke said basically the truth, "I used to close the scene for him, he didn't like to be interrupted by some 'fanatical' behavior at work. It would make it difficult for him Going into the role, he's a great, charismatic actor, and that's a big reason why I chose him."

"Also, Liam's own temperament is also very suitable for the role of Brian. I can't imagine anyone else playing Brian. Liam's personality and his own conditions are very good - 1.95 meters tall, and very sensitive at the same time. When you meet him, you definitely don't think he's a militant, but you can feel a certain potential under his ruthless exterior."

Finally, a male reporter stood up and said in a joking tone, "Director Rosenberg, when I was just sitting in the cinema watching a movie, I suddenly felt that this movie was a living warning, and even thought about it. The director wants to make such a film, is it because his daughter is not obedient, so Dad made such a film to scare her?"

As soon as this question came up, the whole press room laughed, and Duke laughed too, he could tell it was a well-meaning joke.

He also cooperated with a joke, "If I said that this is a movie specially made for female middle school students all over the world, would you believe it?"

There was another burst of laughter in the press room.

The interview also ended here. Duke soon left Shanghai Studios. According to the time, it is not far from the North American release time. He has to go back to maintain active contact with North America.

The day after its release, Duke saw a lot of comments about "Hurricane Rescue" in many local newspapers, which were generally good.

"The storyline of the film is still old-fashioned. The lone hero is resourceful and strong, and goes deep into the tiger's den to catch the bad guys. However, the placement of the emotional core and the establishment of the relationship between the characters make this film a new look, not only with exciting and hot action scenes Feed your eyeballs, and tick your heart with secret, subtle, soothing emotional drama."

"Besides, the film is worth mentioning with a good sense of rhythm, a very textured picture, and an excellent psychological creation. Director Duke Rosenberg, as always, has created an excellent commercial blockbuster, People can not only hold popcorn, be refreshed by the explosive voice, but also drop two lines of tears and walk out of the theater thoughtfully."

"All in all, this is a masterpiece not to be missed."

Since he came to Shang Hai, Duke inevitably needs to attend some events, especially those related to Warner Bros. and movies. This is also the main purpose of his coming here, to lay the foundation for the future, at least the media here first. , audiences and departments related to the film industry are familiar with each other.

Duke has attended two official banquets held by China Film Group and Shanghai Municipal Government, but he has always been cautious in his words and deeds. He is very aware that some departments here are too sensitive.

There is still a lot of work in North America, and it is impossible for Duke to stay here for a long time. After the two formal dinners, he will prepare for the last two activities according to the itinerary established earlier.

One is to accept a TV interview, and the other is to give a speech at Fudan University.

Because he did not want to go north and because of the nature of the TV station, Duke declined the invitation of a TV station with the largest audience and chose a relatively private program.

Of course, this show has a large audience, and it has a certain influence in Asia.

That's right, Duke chose Yang Lan's interview among the many invitations from TV stations. The other party has experience studying in the United States and working in North America, and he knows the political and social situation on both sides. In the communication between Tina Fei and her, He also happily agreed that the subject of the interview was basically within the scope of the film, and would not involve messy sensitive content such as politics and human rights.

On Monday afternoon, Duke walked into the interview room of Sun TV, giving an exclusive interview to the Chinese media for the first time in his life. (To be continued ~^~)
