Millennium director

"Well, Director Wu, I'm honored to receive this invitation, but this is a big deal and I need to think about it carefully."

Bosco's Mandarin pronunciation is very good, at least better than most of the Hong Kong people Wu Yuan met during this period.

It can also be seen from this aspect that he is still very concerned about going north to the mainland for development, otherwise he would not specialize in practicing such standard Mandarin.

Most of the Hong Kong actors Wu Yuan likes and is willing to interact with are very good at Mandarin. This also shows that it is not difficult for Hong Kong people to practice Mandarin well.

Even Mr. Xing, who has stopped acting for a long time, is quite good in Mandarin.

Some actors from Hong Kong keep saying they want to embrace the mainland market, but more than ten years have passed and they still speak very poor Mandarin. From this, you can see how sincere they are.

"Of course, I understand it very much." Wu Yuan said to Huang Zongze in a very kind tone: "There is no need to rush to make a decision. Even if we fail to cooperate in the end, it doesn't matter."

Although I really like Bosco Bosco, in today's light and shadow era, we really don't care too much about whether an actor stays or not. Wu Yuan just has such an idea, and he will happily accept it whether it succeeds or not.

Faced with such an amiable and relaxed Wu Yuan, Huang Zongze was also very surprised and even a little moved.

You know, here in Hong Kong Island, the director is called a jerk. In some Hong Kong film and television dramas, the director grabs the actor and scolds him, just like a gang boss. This is not an exaggeration.

The directors in Hong Kong are really bad. Directors like Johnnie To, Wong Jing, and Lau Wai-keung treat their actors on the set exactly the same way that gangsters treat their younger brothers. They often beat and scold them.

This is also related to the fact that Hong Kong movies were seriously influenced by the underworld in their initial stage and glory period.

Therefore, Bosco, who is used to seeing "tyrant-style" directors in Hong Kong, is really a little uncomfortable facing such a soft-spoken Wu Yuan.

Originally, he thought that Wu Yuan would be offended if he did not agree directly but made a recommendation, so he was mentally prepared to be scolded for being disrespectful.

Now, Huang Zongze, who had not yet been able to make up his mind, had already tilted his inner balance towards accepting the invitation to join the Light and Shadow Era.

There is no way, he is such a sentimental man!

"I know, I will think about it carefully!" Huang Zongze nodded with firm eyes, and decided to communicate with several big brothers in the industry when he went back to ask for their opinions.

In his heart, he also felt that instead of staying in this small Hong Kong market that was destined to decline, it would be better to completely turn to the mainland. This was also a good choice!

The visit of several local actors from Hong Kong Island did not disrupt the normal shooting plan of "Doctor Strange", and the film is still being shot in an orderly manner.

After almost using up the 350 tons of gravel, the filming of the largest and most complex street battle scenes in the entire film was completed successfully.

Different from the original version, this time Wu Yuan's version of "Hong Kong Island Street Fight" has some more lion dancing faces.

These lion dances not only served as the background, but also showed a funny performance of "lion escape" in the background when the mages were fighting.

This can be considered a little easter egg in the movie.

As for the scene between Doctor Strange and Dormammu after the street battle, it had already been filmed in New York. It was filmed in a New York studio. Benedict was constantly facing a big man in green clothes. 'Dormammu, I'm here to negotiate' repeats, and then the special effects take care of the rest.

It is explained that the audience will see a fantasy and gorgeous, psychedelic adventure, like a kaleidoscope, with colors bursting out, and a dimensional world where time and space are embodied.

As for the crew, after completing the filming on Hong Kong Island, they will continue to the next filming location, which is also the last filming location, London, England.

The crew will be filming some scenes here about the Holy of Holies in London, as well as scenes with Master Mordo on the streets of London.

There are not many scenes in this part, and it is just the finishing touches. After completing the filming in London, the crew can declare that it is completely finished and then start to move into post-production.

Shooting for Marvel is so convenient, and Wu Yuan doesn’t have to worry about anything in terms of post-production. Marvel is responsible for the special effects and editing. They have made many Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, and they are more professional than Wu Yuan, even with many special effects. They are all ready-made, and the special effects company can just use them directly.

This is one of the reasons why "Doctor Strange" only took one year from filming to release. At least one-third of the special effects shots in the entire film can be reused from previous Marvel movies, which can naturally reduce a lot of Post-production time.

Just like "The Wandering Earth 2" can use many resources of "The Wandering Earth 1".

However, what surprised Wu Yuan was that within two days after the "Doctor Strange" crew came to London, someone came to visit the team again, and it was an unexpected person-Tom Holland!

That is the new version of Spider-Man.

In June last year, Sony and Marvel announced that Tom Holland would play Peter Parker, the "Spider-Man", and also officially confirmed that Spider-Man will return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Before this news was announced, in fact, as early as May last year, Tom Holland had officially started to serve as Spider-Man and joined the filming of "Captain America: Civil War".

Although he joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe, neither Wu Yuan nor Benedict knew him, even though both he and Benedict were British actors.

The other actors in the crew didn't know him either. He just came to join in the fun because he knew a new Marvel movie was being filmed in London.

No wonder Tom Holland could become the new Spider-Man. His personality is really similar to Spider-Man, at least to the new version of Spider-Man designed by Marvel. It can be said that he played his true colors.

And the "Doctor Strange" crew welcomed such a youthful and familiar actor to visit the set, which was a relatively pleasant experience.

1Holland is not yet 20 years old this year. Being with him makes Wu Yuan, a 30-year-old uncle, feel a lot younger and more energetic.

Well, if you can ignore Tom Holland like a curious baby, constantly asking a hundred thousand whys beside him.

However, Tom Holland's arrival did cause a little misunderstanding.

The crew of Doctor Strange has attracted much attention from entertainment journalists around the world. Since the filming of this movie started, there has been no shortage of paparazzi reporters taking photos from Nepal to New York and then to Hong Kong Island. After all, this movie has a lot of street shooting, and it is easy for reporters to squat on the set.

The same is true in London.

So, when Tom Holland came to visit the set, he was immediately discovered by reporters who were secretly taking photos on the buildings near the set with their cameras, and was successfully misunderstood.

The next day, the Sun, the largest entertainment newspaper in the UK, reported a news with a front-page headline.

"Latest Reuters! - Tom Holland, the new Spider-Man, joins the movie Doctor Strange!" (End of this chapter)
