China Entertainment: Great directors start by winning actresses

Chapter 261 Spider-Man’s Line
"Haha... It seems that these two families are indeed not very wise. They have played their good cards to pieces. Interestingly, there really is no thousand-year world. No matter how many resources they have, without a wise leader, sooner or later they will Defeated.

This reminds me of Spielberg, who had many godsons and goddaughters, although few of them became superstars.

But some people won the Academy Award for Best Actress, some became the most popular star among teenagers, and some even starred in the leading actor in the super commercial blockbuster "Transformers".

Compared with the achievements of these godsons and goddaughters of Spielberg, Missydi, the darling of two families, pales in comparison. "

Su Zhe couldn't help but laugh after hearing this. He didn't know about it before, but now he understood the reason.

The daughter and niece of two great directors have such a close relationship, which reminds Su Zhe of the godson and goddaughter of another great director.

I really don’t know if I compare them, I can only see the difference after comparing them.

In a conference room in Colombia, the atmosphere is solemn and formal.

When Su Zhe and David were introduced into the conference room, a middle-aged white man in a suit and tie immediately greeted them warmly.

"Good morning, Mr. Su Zhe, and student David." He smiled, stretched out his hand, and introduced himself: "I'm Misit, Misit Selvi, currently working in the Columbia Production Department and being hired by The company has been appointed as the producer of "Spider-Man".

I am familiar with many people in other film and television companies, and I know that even a superstar like Tom Cruise behaves well on the set of "Mission: Impossible". "Mishit said flatteringly with a smile on her face.

"Understood, director, don't worry, I know what to do.

He just found out in the past few days that Su Zhe was very indifferent to Missydy's audition. He even didn't bother to come up with questions when Missydy went through the audition process. Instead, he let the other people who were accompanying him in the audition make their own choices. Let Missydi perform an excerpt.

What I need is an actor who can perfectly interpret the role, rather than someone who comes in based on connections or background. "

Although the process is a bit cumbersome, Su Zhe is willing to cooperate. After all, this movie is Colombia's flagship project, and they have their own way of doing things, especially this super commercial blockbuster.

The meals here were just the same. Su Zhe had eaten them a few times and lost the novelty, so he had to continue eating steak.

Su Zhe swallowed the beef in his mouth and took a sip of milk before speaking slowly. don't know

how? The actors I recommend are naturally qualified, and you have to trust my professional vision. "Of course Su Zhe knows that his internal operations have made many people at Columbia have objections, and David has already mentioned this matter to him.

If possible, I would rather stay in a hotel near the set, drink and read newspapers every day. "

"Very good, then let's start the audition according to your Colombian process." Su Zhe nodded with satisfaction.

This is completely different from Su Zhe's performance when auditioning other actors, so Mixit asked this question.

I just like working with smart people.

“It’s just involution, this phenomenon happens everywhere.

In the past few days, during the auditions, Mixit, as a producer, also needed to accompany them to the auditions. The two of them had become familiar with each other. At this time, there was no sense of unfamiliarity between Mixit and Su Zhe, but they seemed very familiar.

Su Zhe looked at the producer, but did not immediately respond to his handshake.

Why does my crew always shoot so fast? Because they are all smart people and there is no trouble.

"That's true... there are many actors you are familiar with in this movie. To be honest, Su Zhe, with your current status, it would not be easy for other directors to win so many roles." Mixit was stunned for a moment. , then smiled and nodded, and casually talked about other actors.

"Like it? Why do you like it? Missit, I don't know this Missit. I have never been in contact with her before, so naturally I can't say I like her."

For this kind of audition, even if the real actors have been decided internally, the format still has to go through a lot of work. This is to report it to external news media and increase global exposure.

Everything on the set is decided by you, the director, and I am just a messenger.

I don't have any other ideas myself.

President Milady has also told me that I will not interfere in anything on the set.

“Wow, I kind of like you, Misit.

Mixit knows the importance of maintaining a good relationship with Su Zhe.

After saying that, the professional smile on his face bloomed again.

As an internal employee of Columbia, he is very aware of Su Zhe's strength and influence in Hollywood.

Many film and television companies are rushing to cooperate with this Chinese director, and he does not want to miss the opportunity due to his negligence.

“That’s not important, Mitsit.

But Su Zhe didn't care. He felt that he would be a fool if he didn't use his own people.

By the way, he warned again that he has the final say on his crew and no one dares to interfere at will.

In the next few days, audition activities were in full swing. Su Zhe comes to Columbia every morning and doesn't leave until evening.

After the performance, Su Zhe did not express any opinions.

He has full confidence in the actors he selected and believes that they can perfectly interpret the characters and add brilliance to the movie.

He quickly responded: "If the director is worried that I will interfere with the crew's work, then there is no need to do so.

During lunch time that day, when Misit Selvi was sitting with Su Zhe eating together, he asked with a smile: "Su Zhe, you don't seem to like Missit?"

I hope to get the director's attention in the future. "

Misit's smile began to become a little stiff, and when he could no longer keep his smile, Su Zhe gently shook his hand and asked the question expressionlessly.

I hate trouble, and I like to root out trouble..." Su Zhe's expressionless face suddenly showed a smile when he heard this, and he patted Mixit's arm appreciatively.

Su Zhe glanced at Mixit and said calmly: "It's not that I don't like her, it's just that she is not suitable for my movie.

Mixit breathed a sigh of relief, what he worried about did not happen.

He thought for a moment and then asked, "Do you know my filming habits?"

Otherwise, how could a little-known woman like Missydi become the heroine of a movie. Su Zhe thought of this and took the initiative to ask without waiting for Misit to speak.

"Mishit, speaking of Missyt, I want to know how this woman got Colombia to agree to her being the heroine of the movie?"

Missit looked around to make sure no one was nearby, then smiled and said in a low voice: "Hey, Director Michelle is the director of our production department, and he strongly recommended Missit to be the heroine.

The company internally felt that "Spider-Man" was a commercial film with Spider-Man as the absolute protagonist, and the male and female protagonists were just embellishments. As long as the acting skills were decent and the pay was low, it would be acceptable.

So I gave Michelle face and agreed to let Missydy be the heroine. "

"What is the relationship between this Michelle and Missydi?" Su Zhe is also very interested in gossip, which seems to be a common feature of human beings.

“Director Michelle made a lot of money for Columbia by cooperating with two great directors, Ron Homick and Clint Eastwood, and was able to take the position of head of Columbia’s production department.

He collaborated with the two directors on many films that year, both of which he served as producer.

Now that these two people came to him again, he really couldn't refuse. "Mixit didn't hide anything from Su Zhe and told everything.

Many things are not secrets, it’s just whether anyone is willing to ask about them.

For foreigners, most of them are happy to share unless they sign a confidentiality contract.

"Oh, I understand." Su Zhe nodded with a smile and stopped the topic.

This is also the so-called involution phenomenon. Su Zhe can probably guess it even without asking.

It's just that he didn't expect that the two once-prominent director families would fall to this point. It's really sad to see such failure in life. After a busy week, the auditions for "Spider-Man" are finally officially over. All actors have been confirmed:
Actor: Tobey Maguire

Actress: Missydy Dallas Homick

The heroine's sixteen-year-old niece is played by: Natalie Portman
In Su Zhe's script, the heroine is set as a foreigner, who is far different in age from her sister.

The heroine's sister is a divorced woman with a child——.

Later, the sister got divorced and married a Chinese man who was also divorced.

And this Chinese man also has a child, a girl, played by Natalie Portman.

In order to arrange for as many of his people to participate in the performance as possible, Su Zhe racked his brains when writing the script to design roles suitable for them to play.

The "Spider-Man" series of movies has rich plots and many characters. Here is an introduction to some of the main characters:

Peter Parker/Spider-Man (played by Tobey Maguire): The protagonist of this series, an ordinary high school student, gained superpowers after being bitten by a genetically modified spider.

He vowed to use these abilities to fight crime and protect New York City.

Mary Jane (played by Missydie Dallas Homick): Peter Parker's neighbor and crush.

She is a gentle, kind and beautiful girl who has deep feelings for Parker.

Norman Osborn/Green Goblin (played by Willem Dafoe): The boss of a biotechnology company who gained superpowers after inhaling nerve gas and embarked on a criminal path. He is one of Spider-Man's main enemies. one.

Harry Osborn (played by James Franco): Norman Osborn's son and Peter Parker's best friend.

After his father became the Green Goblin, his life was also greatly affected.

Uncle Ben (played by Cliff Robertson): Peter Parker's uncle who had a profound influence on Parker.

He taught Parker that "with great power comes great responsibility," which is also one of the core themes of the Spider-Man film series.

Aunt May (played by Rosemary Harris): Peter Parker's aunt, she takes care of Parker like a mother, giving him the warmth and support of a family.

J. Jonah Jameson (played by JK Simmons): The editor-in-chief of the Daily Bugle, who often publishes negative reports about Spider-Man, but in fact he is a complex and interesting character who sometimes shows respect and understanding of Spider-Man. .

These characters together form the rich plot and character relationship network of the "Spider-Man" series of movies.

Each character has his own unique personality and story background, making the entire series more engaging.

Lin Yoona and Tang Yan play supporting female roles that often appear in it. Although it is only a small supporting role, there are many people competing for it. Su Zhe often talks with Miss Milady.

After all, these supporting female characters appear much faster than the main characters.

In addition, there are some small roles in the movie that are played by many black people. Su Zhe chose actors of various skin colors to play them to show multicultural tolerance and avoid leaving any talk to the outside world.

His films have always adhered to the principle that unless there are special circumstances, people of all colors will find their place in the film.

Columbia Studios was selected as the main filming location for the movie "Spider-Man" and will host the majority of filming.

In this spacious studio, the most eye-catching thing is the long green screen, which will play an important role in the filming process.

Green screen shooting is a technique commonly used in film production, especially in films that require special effects and scene compositing.

In this movie, due to the difficulty and high cost of real-life construction of "Spider-Man", green screen shooting became the main shooting method.

In front of the green screen, actors can perform according to the script, while the post-production team will synthesize special effects and scenes onto the green screen background to create various environments and effects needed in the movie.

The shooting scene was busy and orderly, with field staff holding slates and accurately marking the status of each shot.

The actors performed with full concentration in front of the green screen, while the photographers captured every wonderful moment.

Although performing in front of a green screen was a challenge for the actors, they successfully portrayed the characters in the movie with their professionalism and solid acting skills.

In this sparsely populated country, it is not difficult to have such a spacious studio.

As one of the six largest studios in Hollywood, Columbia Studios has top-notch facilities and resources, providing a strong guarantee for film shooting.

In this studio, the filming of "Spider-Man" is in full swing, and we look forward to this movie bringing more surprises and touches to the audience.

"Spider-Man" mainly tells the story of an ordinary high school student named Peter Parker, who unexpectedly gained superhuman abilities and enhanced physical fitness after being bitten by a genetically modified spider.

He discovered that he could crawl on walls and ceilings like a spider and shoot spider silk from his wrists. At the same time, he also realized that with these abilities came greater responsibilities.

When Peter's dearest uncle is killed by a criminal he once let go, Peter vows to use his superpowers to fight crime and protect New York City from the forces of evil.

From then on, he transformed into Spider-Man and began his heroic journey.

Throughout the story, "With great power comes great responsibility" becomes Peter Parker's motto and the core message of the film.

The film not only showcases Spider-Man's battle against the forces of evil, but also delves into themes of personal responsibility, sacrifice and heroism.

Spider-Man mainly has three branches.

A, it’s about the battle between Spider-Man and the Green Goblin. (The struggle between good and evil.)
The Green Goblin has several identities. One is the father of Spider-Man's friend, and the other is Spider-Man's senior in scientific research.

(These two identities make his relationship with Spider-Man closer.)
The birth of the Green Goblin is also based on his own living conditions or expertise: ① Scientific researchers have their own laboratories. ②The withdrawal of experimental funds led to him going into battle. ③ Side effects of experimental drugs.

(This happens to be one of the reasons why the previous experimental funding was cancelled.

In other words, the side effects of this drug played a role in promoting two branches!

① As a result, his experimental funds were revoked and he was forced to conduct experiments. ② As a result, he had an accident during the experiment, his mind was affected by the side effects, and he turned into the Green Goblin. )
——This is the birth of the Green Goblin.

So what about the birth of Spider-Man?
2. The birth of Spider-Man: Spider-Man has two identities: . He is a top student in science.

②I am a photography enthusiast.

The scene when he transformed into Spider-Man happened to match his two identities, and he used them both. For example, the occasion he participated in was a scientific exhibition, which was his own professional direction.

For example, when he was bitten by a spider, it was based on his hobbies and interests, and the setting of his photo played a echoing role. Can be more natural. (How to introduce the mutant spider in detail is another matter.)
B, it is about the love line of Spider-Man and Peter Parker, and the conflicts and conflicts of each line are arranged in each line.

The conflict in the love line is that Peter's mood and attention when he has a crush on the heroine are always rudely interrupted by others, especially the heroine's boyfriend.

The plot of him chasing the bus was repeated twice for comparison (the first time was to introduce the girl he had a crush on, that is, the love line.

By the way, the scene in the love line where he was bullied was also arranged. The three-year period has arrived, and the Dragon King (Spider-Man) is welcome back to the palace.

The second time was to suggest subtle changes in his body (tearing off the advertising paper on the bus), which means that the role of one plot fragment may be two lines.

After the love line ends, the villain line follows

(That is, the friendship line, where childhood friends appear, and then there is the exchange between the protagonist and the future villain boss.

The content of the conversation between the two people must have involved scientific research products with side effects that were eaten by the villain later. )
So what kind of line does visiting the scientific research museum belong to?

It is to pave the way for his mutation, and the mutation is a plot arranged based on his school major and hobby of photography, so how to fill in the content of this plot.

It just continues to intersperse some small conflicts and contradictions in the love line, so that Peter Parker's hobbies and specialties + college majors and love lines collide (taking photos of the crush + explaining the performance of the mutant spider.)
And these photoshoots could not go smoothly because of the obstacles of the heroine's boyfriend's gang, that is, some small conflicts related to the love line were arranged, very obscure and indirect conflicts.
