Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

For MGM, the biggest hits this year are two superhero movies, "Spider-Man" and "Captain America."

From the beginning, both Lin Daoqiu and Richardson felt that the box office performance and influence of "Spider-Man" would obviously be higher than that of "Captain America."

Therefore, MGM's support and investment in "Spider-Man" from the beginning was higher than that of "Captain America."

At this time, both "Spider-Man" and "Captain America" ​​are in the midst of intense filming.

As the producer of these two movies, Lin Daoqiu has never appeared on the set from the time the movie was launched until now. This is really too much.

So that morning, Lin Daoqiu took Fang Jinsheng to Magic Studio's special effects studio in LA early to check on the filming progress of "Spider-Man" and "Captain America."

As the male protagonist of "Spider-Man", Matt Damon has been practicing very diligently since he took over the role.

After several months of hard work, although it is still far from the level of the ordinary dragon and tiger martial arts masters in Xiangjiang, it is more than enough to shoot this kind of special effects movie.

Terry Leonard was originally hired by Lin Daoqiu to be the assistant director of this play, but now he has almost become the director of this play.

After all, Lin Daoqiu has never come forward. If Terry comes to Leonard and takes care of things, the film will not be filmed at all.

So Lin Daoqiu simply promoted his position to director, which made Terry Leonard extremely excited.

Although Terry Leonard himself knows very well that with his ability, it is almost impossible for him to film "Spider-Man" alone, but fortunately the script given by Lin Daoqiu is very perfect.

, he just needs to film according to the script.

Even though there is still a big gap between him and those great directors, Terry Leonard has been in this industry for many years and has worked with many directors, so he can't stand out.

I will never ruin the film.

"Matt's condition was not very good at the beginning, but after a period of time, he and Jennifer have become more and more understanding."

Terry came to Leonard and introduced to Lin Daoqiu the progress of the filming of "Spider-Man" and the situation of the actors while walking.

"I've seen the sample photos I took before, they're pretty good."

Before arriving, Lin Daoqiu had already watched all the samples taken by Terry before coming to Leonard. In his opinion, at least so far, Terry's work at Leonard was still up to standard.

After all, superhero series are all about action and special effects. As long as the plot is shot as normal and there are no big mistakes, it will be considered qualified.

Originally, Terry Leonard was worried that the photos he had taken before would not be able to pass Lin Daoqiu's eyes, but when he got Lin Daoqiu's approval, Terry Leonard finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Don't be so nervous. The most important thing for you is to accumulate experience in shooting this type of movie. You have done a great job so far. I really saw the right person."

Lin Daoqiu patted Terry Leonard on the shoulder, patting the opponent's bones lightly.

"It's all Mr. Lin's well-written scripts, that's why I felt so comfortable filming."

Terry Leonard knew exactly what to say in front of Lin Daoqiu. Although he was not such a person before, sometimes it only takes a moment for people to change.

"Don't put a high hat on me. What's yours is yours. No matter how good my script is but it doesn't turn out that way in the end, it's all in vain."

Terry Leonard just smiled at this. In his opinion, everything Lin Daoqiu said was right, and he just had to do what Lin Daoqiu asked.

You must know that the investment in "Spider-Man" is over 150 million US dollars. It is no exaggeration to say that among all the directors in Hollywood, 99% of them will never direct such a super blockbuster in their lifetime.

opportunity.

Even before Terry Leonard met Lin Daoqiu, he thought that he would probably only be an unknown assistant director in his life.

But after meeting Lin Daoqiu, his fate changed dramatically. He could even see his name in the newspaper, which was something that was unimaginable before.

"Mr. Lin..."

When Matt Damon and Jennifer Connelly learned that Lin Daoqiu was visiting the class, they rushed over immediately.

"Thank you for your hard work. "Spider-Man" is the first superhero series movie I shot after taking over MGM. This type of movie is still in the exploratory stage, so it requires repeated study."

Although they already had experience shooting "Godzilla" and "1992" before this, for a brand new special effects film like "Spider-Man", they are still in the exploratory stage and cannot apply all their previous methods.

Fortunately, the technology of Magic Studio and Industrial Light and Magic in special effects can be said to be unparalleled in the world. If even they can't do something, then others will be even further behind in this regard.

"I am deeply honored to be able to participate in the filming of this drama. I will definitely not disappoint Mr. Lin's expectations and do my best to play this role well."

The core character in "Spider-Man" is the male protagonist, and Terry Leonard had repeatedly emphasized this to him before filming, which naturally put a lot of pressure on Matt Damon.

However, Lin Daoqiu believes that with Matt Damon's talent and his dedicated attitude, it will not be a problem to play this role well.

From Terry Leonard's words, Lin Daoqiu can also feel that he is very satisfied with Matt Damon as an actor. So far, he can be said to be fully committed to every scene when filming.

They are all very serious.

Although Terry Leonard doesn't know what the final result of the film will be after filming is completed, he believes that with Matt Damon's attitude and talent, he will definitely become a shining star in Hollywood in the future.

There is no doubt that he is a rising star.

"I'm very happy that you think so. I plan to release "Spider-Man" during Christmas this year, although the time is a bit rushed."

The most golden period of the year in the North American film market is undoubtedly the period from Christmas to New Year. If we compare it to Hong Kong movies, it is similar to the Spring Festival period there.

Lin Daoqiu has already booked the Christmas schedule for "Spider-Man" this year. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I believe that "Spider-Man" will be a hit during the Spring Festival this year.

Thinking that the movie he is starring in will be released on this year's Christmas schedule, Matt Damon becomes even more motivated.

"Guys, it seems that the boss is putting pressure on us this time, so we have to work harder and try to finish filming "Spider-Man" before Christmas."

Like Matt Damon, Terry Leonard is already looking forward to Christmas.
