Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"When night falls and the clock reaches 7 p.m., the chilling siren will sound. This is also a nightmare for all those who yearn for peace in this city."

The set of "The Purge" was set up in a studio in LA. The setting here is mainly ordinary urban streets, and it is also one of the most important filming locations for "The Purge".

This time director Oliver Stone invited Kevin Costner, the actor who played an outstanding role in "The Untouchables", to star in "The Purge".

Lin Daoqiu did not interfere with the casting of "The Purge" from the beginning, but completely delegated power to Oliver Stone. This can be regarded as respect for him.

After all, Lin Daoqiu believes that the setting and plot of this drama alone are enough to attract many viewers who like this type of subject matter.

As for who should be chosen to play the leading role, Lin Daoqiu actually didn't have much opinion on this. As long as the salary was not too expensive, he would be fine.

Obviously, the choice of Oliver Stone is very good. Kevin Costner is only in his early thirties at this time. He is very tough and handsome, and he can be regarded as a standard handsome guy.

This time he will play an ordinary security system salesman, but in the second half of the movie he will transform into a home-protecting maniac.

Lin Daoqiu's setting for the male protagonist in the script actually gave him the status of a retired special operations team instructor, so that he could play a role in the second half of the movie.

Speaking of which, this movie is more of a fun movie than a horror movie, but the setting of the plot will give people a preconceived fear at the beginning.

After all, under such a setting, what people can think of is all kinds of indiscriminate killing, but in the whole movie, Lin Daoqiu does not have the kind of group fighting or large group battles.

It just puts the focus on the hero's battle of wits and courage after his family is invaded, as well as the resistance and counterattack in the later period.

After all, Lin Daoqiu never thought about making "Human Purge Plan" into a movie with anti-humanity themes.

If it can be done well, Lin Daoqiu can establish an anti-war image for himself after the movie is released.

"Why does this alarm sound like an air raid siren?"

At first, Oliver Stone asked people to find several alarm sounds and try them out to see which one was more suitable.

But neither he nor Yu Yungang were satisfied after listening to several sirens.

"There is no need to worry about these, as long as the alarm sound does not appear often, it is best to make it completely different from the ordinary alarm sound."

Lin Daoqiu also came to the crew of "The Purge" today. He came over today to see how the filming of this drama is progressing.

"Mr. Lin is right. If it is similar to an ordinary siren, it may cause misunderstanding."

Yu Yungang still doesn't know whether "Human Purge" will be a big hit. He simply looks at this issue from the perspective of an ordinary audience and citizen.

But Lin Daoqiu knew very well that the movie would be a big hit by then. If the sirens in the movie were similar to the sirens in reality, it would definitely arouse fear among the general public.

"Let them do it again."

Oliver Stone was very interested in this drama after reading the script, and his ideas became more and more during the filming process.

Coupled with the cooperation with Yu Yunchang, this drama is even more comfortable in creating horror and suspense.

If Lin Daoqiu hadn't already set the ending and the direction of the overall plot, Oliver Stone really wanted to make this drama look more tragic.

"Hello Mr. Lin, my name is Kelly McGillis. You can just call me Kelly."

As the heroine of this drama, Kelly McGillis has met Lin Daoqiu for the first time.

Kelly McGillis, who was seen as an on-screen couple with Tom Cruise in "Top Gun", was invited to play the heroine in "The Purge". I don't know why she was willing to take on the film.

"Hello Kelly, nice to meet you. I was too busy to visit the class before. I hope you can forgive me."

The casting of Kelly McGillis had nothing to do with Lin Daoqiu, it was all Oliver Stone's decision.

However, Lin Daoqiu was still a little surprised to be able to invite her to star in this drama.

But what Lin Daoqiu didn't know was that Oliver Stone's fame alone might not necessarily be able to recruit Kelly McGillis. The main reason was because this drama was written by Lin Daoqiu.

Otherwise, for a horror film with this kind of anti-humanity theme, it would be really not easy to hire someone like Kelly McGillis.

"Tom has told me a lot about you before, and it seems to me that his respect for you has reached an all-time high, so this makes me want to cooperate with you..."

"Director Oliver happened to send me an invitation, so I gladly accepted it."

Although she later brought in Oliver Stone, Kelly McGillis actually didn't like the script at first.

If Lin Daoqiu's name hadn't been on the screenwriter column, it would have been unlikely that she would have taken on the drama.

After all, after starring in "Top Gun", Kelly McGillis's fame in Hollywood skyrocketed. As long as she continues to develop steadily, she will definitely have a place in Hollywood in the future.

But this time Kelly McGillis made a very bold decision. She decided to take over the heroine of "The Purge".

Even her agent did not agree with her decision, but the attraction of screenwriter Lin Daoqiu was too great for them to refuse.

"I haven't seen Tom for a long time, but his development is indeed very good, and he will definitely become a top star in Hollywood in the future."

Lin Daoqiu no longer plans to cooperate with Tom Cruise because the relationship with the other party's manager has caused a rift in the relationship between him and Lin Daoqiu.

In fact, Tom Cruise was very upset. He originally respected Lin Daoqiu very much and even hoped to have more opportunities to cooperate with him.

But it's a pity that a rat's excrement ruins the pot of soup. Cooperation between him and Lin Daoqiu is unlikely at least in the past few years.

Kelly McGillis didn't know about this. If she knew that Lin Daoqiu and Tom Cruise had a quarrel, she would never dare and would not mention Tom Cruise's name in front of Lin Daoqiu.

But what I have to say is that Lin Daoqiu feels that Oliver Stone's casting this time can be said to be very good.

If this time it was an idol drama, then Lin Daoqiu's score for Oliver Stone could be said to be absolutely perfect.
