Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2378

For MGM, the big 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 is higher than that of "Captain America".

At this time, both "Spider-Man" and "Captain America" ​​are under intense shooting.

As the producer of these two films, Lin Daoqiu has not appeared on the set since the movie started, which is a bit too much.

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

As the leading actor of "Spider-Man", Matt Damon has been practicing very hard since he took over the role.

After several months of hard work, although it is still far from reaching the level of Xiangjiang's general dragon and tiger warriors, it is more than enough to shoot this kind of special effects movie.

Originally, Terry Leonard was recruited by Lin Daoqiu to serve as the assistant director of this drama, but now he has almost become the director of this drama.

After all, Lin Daoqiu has never shown up. If Terry Leonard doesn't care about things, then this movie will not be able to be filmed at all.

So Lin Daoqiu directly promoted his position to director, which made Terry Leonard very excited.

Although Terry Leonard himself is very clear that it is almost impossible to shoot "Spider-Man" alone with his ability, but fortunately, the script given by Lin Daoqiu is very perfect. , as long as he shoots according to the script.

Even though there is still a big gap with those big directors, Terry Leonard has been in this industry for many years, and he has also cooperated with many directors, so he can't do it well but The film will never be smashed.

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

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

"I've seen the samples I took before, and they're not bad."

Before Lin Daoqiu came here, he had watched all the samples taken by Terry Leonard before. In his opinion, at least so far, Terry Leonard's work is still qualified.

After all, the superhero series is about action and special effects, and as long as the plot is shot according to normal and there are no major mistakes, it is considered qualified.

Originally, Terry Leonard was worried that his previous shots 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. Accumulating experience in shooting this type of film is the most important thing for you. You have done a great job so far. I really didn't see the wrong person."

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

"It's all because Mr. Lin's script is well written, that's why I'm so handy in filming."

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

"Don't give me a high hat. If it's yours, it's yours. No matter how good my script is, it's useless if it turns out to be different in the end."

Terry Leonard just smiled at this. Anyway, in his opinion, what Lin Daoqiu said was right, and he just had to follow Lin Daoqiu's request.

You must know that the investment in "Spider-Man" is as high as more than 5000 million US dollars. It is no exaggeration to say that 90.00% of all directors in Hollywood will never have the opportunity to direct such a super blockbuster in their lifetime.

Even Terry Leonard thought that before he met Lin Daoqiu, he might 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 unimaginable before.

"Mr. Lin..."

Matt Damon and Jennifer Connelly rushed over immediately when they learned that Lin Daoqiu was coming to visit the class.

"Thanks for your hard work, both of you. "Spider-Man" is the first superhero series film I shot after taking over MGM. This type of film is still in the stage of exploration, so it needs repeated research."

Although they already had shooting experience of "Godzilla" and "1992" before this, they are still in the stage of exploring new special effects films like "Spider-Man", and they cannot all apply the previous methods.

Fortunately, Magic Studio and Industrial Light & Magic are unrivaled in special effects technology. If they can't do something, others will be far behind in this respect.

"It is a great honor to be able to participate in the filming of this drama. I will definitely not disappoint Mr. Lin's expectations, and I will do my best to play this role well."

The core character in "Spider-Man" is the male protagonist, and Terry Leonard has repeatedly emphasized this matter with 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 is not a problem to play this role well.

From Terry Leonard's mouth, Lin Daoqiu can also feel that he is very satisfied with the actor Matt Damon. So far, he can be said to be fully committed. When shooting every scene They are very serious.

Although Terry Leonard does not know what will happen after the final film is finished, he believes that with Matt Damon's attitude and talent, he will definitely become a shining new star in Hollywood in the future , it is beyond doubt.

"I'm very relieved that you can think of it like this. 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 the period from Christmas to New Years. If you compare Xiangjiang movies, it is similar to the Spring Festival period there.

Lin Daoqiu has already helped "Spider-Man" book this year's Christmas schedule, as long as there are no accidents, I believe that this year's "Spider-Man" will kill the Quartet during the Spring Festival.

Thinking that the film he starred in will be in this year's Christmas schedule, Matt Damon's enthusiasm has increased a bit.

"Guys, it looks like the boss is here to put pressure on us, so we have to work harder and try to finish shooting "Spider-Man" before Christmas."

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