Millennium director

"Listen to my advice, you really can't control it."

"Moreover, Hollywood now seems to be a hot business, full of flowers, and very aggressive in the world, but in fact, Hollywood is already going downhill."

"In recent years, the box office of Hollywood movies has indeed been increasing year by year around the world, and there are more and more movies with a box office of over 1 billion US dollars."

"But have you noticed that these movies are all very homogeneous, half are superhero movies, and half are fantasy and magic movies."

"In short, they are all special effects movies that rely on a lot of special effects shots and burn money on visual effects."

“Fine movies that can truly stand the test of time, like Titanic, The Godfather, The Shawshank Redemption, Forrest Gump, Mission: Impossible, The Matrix, and Gone with the Wind, have become increasingly rare. ”

"It seems that without special effects, Hollywood will no longer make movies."

“There are no more Hollywood works that have conquered the world with their dramas and moving stories like they did in the past.”

"The future of world cinema lies in our country, not in Hollywood!"

"You may not think that Hollywood is glamorous now, but in five or ten years, Hollywood will go downhill. When everyone gets tired of the gorgeous special effects and the same superhero movies, It’s totally impossible to come to the dock.”

Faced with Wu Yuan's long speech, to be honest, Wu Jing couldn't understand it.

In his opinion, the current Hollywood is simply too successful to be successful. As Wu Yuan said, there are several new movies that break $1 billion in box office every year.

It can be said that Hollywood is creating new top results every year, and every year is a new record.

But Wu Yuan said that this was already a sign of decline from prosperity, and it was the last carnival before decline.

Wu Jing really couldn't see it, even if he did feel that Hollywood blockbusters were a bit homogeneous, with just the same themes over and over again.

But to say that Hollywood is about to die is really unreasonable and a bit alarmist, right?

Seeing Wu Jing's unbelieving look, Wu Yuan sighed inwardly and understood.

If he hadn't known that there would be an epidemic later, and then the zzzq trend would start in Hollywood, it would be hard to imagine that Hollywood would decline like that.

I remember that after 2020, mainland movie fans almost no longer pay attention to Hollywood movies. What everyone discusses and pays attention to every day are China's own Chinese-language films.

It is also difficult for emerging actors in Hollywood to become internationally renowned actors like the generation of Brad Pitt and Robert Downey Jr.

Even the most successful superhero movies, after the new trilogy of "Spider-Man", will no longer be able to achieve the good results of Marvel's first and second phases.

Even movies such as "Black Panther 2" and "Captain Marvel 2" had a hard time breaking the 100 million box office in the mainland. The final box office performance was not as high as that of "Avengers 1" ten years ago, and even "Captain America" ​​was better than but.

But all of this was unpredictable, and no one could have imagined this outcome before it happened.

So it is normal for Wu Jing not to imagine such a future.

Reaching out and patting his shoulder, Wu Yuan chose not to dwell on this topic anymore, and sighed: "Anyway, you can make your own decisions. My advice is to choose carefully. Going to Hollywood is not necessarily a good thing. "

"But the final decision rests with you. This is the opinion I gave you when you asked me."

"Okay, let's continue filming!"

Ignoring the thoughtful Wu Jing, Wu Yuan turned around and continued busy. They were still on the set.

What he didn't expect was that because of this conversation and the sudden action in Hollywood, Wu Jing was completely absent-minded during the afternoon filming.

And I was filming a circus in the afternoon!

The protagonist regiment of "Riding the Wind" is the Jinzhong Cavalry Regiment, a cavalry team. Naturally, the protagonists have a lot of horseback riding scenes.

Moreover, Wu Yuan does not accept the use of fake horses like some TV dramas, and completes these circus scenes by shooting close-up shots and post-production synthesis.

He required the leading actors to learn to ride horses and to run on real horses during filming!

This is how movie making is. Real scenes in reality will never be done by cutting corners.

Fortunately, several of the leading actors in "Riding the Wind" can basically ride a horse, and they have all acted in horse riding scenes before.

Even Liu Yifei, although she didn't have any riding scenes in "Riding the Wind" and only had other people taking her to escape on horseback, she can still ride a horse.

When she was filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", she had a lot of circus scenes, and she boldly rode a real horse to film them. She didn't know how to ride a horse at that time, so she practiced her riding skills hard, and later she actually managed to gallop on a horse. , and he also jumped off a galloping horse with wires hanging on it. The stunt was very difficult!

It can only be said that she was really brave back then. A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers and she dared to film any scenes.

Now she would be afraid to film such a scene.

Among the several leading actors in the crew, the only one who has no experience in riding horses is newcomer Chen Xingxu. One month before he officially joined the cast, Wu Yuan specially arranged a circus coach for him to take him to practice riding horses every day. .

After joining the team, he practiced every day, but he could barely keep up with the filming progress. He was able to gallop on the small plain outside Jinzhong City with his "father" Wu Jing.

But it happened that Wu Jing, who was always skilled in riding a horse, was not in good condition and was worried. He fell off the horse without paying attention.

Wu Yuanke was shocked when he saw this scene. He immediately shouted to stop. A group of staff rushed up and quickly separated the other horses and actors.

Fortunately, although he fell off the horse, there was no stampede. The "cavalry soldiers" behind Wu Jing were all specially invited professionals with superb horsemanship. They stopped their galloping steps at the first time.

But Wu Jing, who fell off the horse and rolled several times and was kicked by the horse's legs, was still injured.

When Wu Yuan rushed to him, he saw Wu Jing groaning on the ground with his waist covered. There were still several wounds on his face caused by stones.

"Hurry, hurry, send him to the hospital immediately!"

Wu Yuan, who guessed why Wu Jing had an accident, was angry and worried. Fortunately, when shooting such dangerous scenes, there were medical staff on the scene. They immediately lifted Wu Jing on a stretcher and sent him to the hospital for examination.

"That's good. The male lead is injured. It looks like he's seriously injured. He'll have to stop working for at least half a month."

Wu Yuan sighed. In addition to being scared, he was also a little angry.

It's all Hollywood's fault!

What a bunch of plague gods!

He's already withdrawn to his country, but these people are still causing trouble for him! (End of this chapter)
