Chapter 263 Reshoot Scenes
"The boss wants to reshoot a few scenes." The producer told the director, "I think it would be perfect to insert a few scenes into 'Captain America,' which will be released at Christmas."
The director nodded to indicate he understood, but a question lingered in his mind. Seeing his silence, the producer asked again, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
The director hesitated for a moment and said, "Wouldn't this... be too abrupt? The audience might be put off, right?"
The producer smiled and reassured him, "Don't worry, it won't be too obvious. We just want him to have a few lines in the movie. Besides, this will help reduce the film's budget!"
Hearing this, the director was still a little worried, but he couldn't argue anymore, so he could only nod in agreement.
As Zhang San sat in the screening room, watching the movie on the screen, a question suddenly popped into his head: "Other commodities can be defeated in movies, so why can't real estate?"
The more he thought about it, the better the idea seemed, so he decided to talk to the producers about it. Perhaps they could really add some real estate-related plots or scenes to the film, which would not only bring new creativity and highlights to the movie, but also promote their own real estate projects—wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?
The above explains why the previous dialogue took place; Zhang San planned to insert a scene from the movie with a duration of no more than 20 seconds.
Zhang San pondered how to seamlessly integrate GG into the film without disrupting the audience's viewing experience. He came up with an idea: in a scene, a character could mention the name of Forest Manor or display some real estate-related props.
"I love Forest Manor; I want a home here."
"Stephen Realty is a trustworthy company."
These two lines were actually spoken by a beautiful and lovely girl who expressed her love for Forest Manor to the male protagonist in a sweet voice. The scene takes place within Forest Manor, surrounded by beautiful gardens and a swimming pool.
However, Zhang San originally preferred to cleverly insert some GG (Goblin) elements into the movie "MechWarrior" to increase its commercial value. Unfortunately, since the movie had already been officially released, no further editing or modifications could be made, so he had to abandon this idea.
Nevertheless, Zhang San still hopes that the audience will notice GG in the film.
"Stephen, you're a true businessman." Amy said, her expression a mix of admiration and regret, as she looked at Zhang San. It was hard to tell whether it was a compliment or an insult. Her tone carried a hint of surprise, but also a touch of admiration.
Zhang San smiled. He knew his actions might cause controversy, but that was reality. In this competitive world, everyone is pursuing the maximization of their own interests.
He calmly replied, "Amy, this is Lighthouse (not the same as the one in Liaoning Province). This is a capitalist society; everything serves commerce. If we don't seize the opportunity, someone else will take it. So, I'm just doing what a businessman should do."
Hearing this, Amy remained silent for a moment. She knew Zhang San was right, but she couldn't fully accept it. After all, film was art, and she was still somewhat naive. In this commercial society, people often stop at nothing.
"Oh!" Amy, a little dazed, seemed to snap out of her daze and quickly chimed in, "Yes, this is the lighthouse, this is Amelica." As she spoke, she chuckled self-deprecatingly. Seemingly realizing that her behavior had been somewhat inappropriate, she quickly composed herself and regained her composure.
"Stephen, being with you always lets me see a different world."
In this business world, everyone must learn to adapt to the rules in order to survive; once you leave school, you will be exposed to the realities of society.
Reshooting scenes is commonplace for the crew, and it's even included in the contract. However, the villas in the forest estate won't be filmed, as they are copyrighted and would require payment to film.
A few days later, the reshoots were successfully completed.
The movie will be released at Christmas; hopefully, audiences won't find GG offensive.
In the summer of 2002, the entertainment industry began to recover after the attacks in 2001, and the box office soared. The originally postponed films "Knockout Pirates" and "Robotech" were released as scheduled, with "Robotech" being released a month earlier than "Knockout Pirates".
Zhang San never expected that this version of RoboMan would be so popular. Before filming began, Zhang San had someone sign a twelve-film contract with Robert Downey Jr., stipulating that his highest salary would not exceed ten million US dollars.
Not only him, but all the actors in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe had to agree to sign contracts for sequels.
Some have four parts, some have ten, and Little Robert has twelve. Otherwise, they won't give you a contract.
The contract included facial copyright, which means that if you decide you don't want to film anymore and refuse to renew the contract, the film crew can still use your face by cutting it out.
Upon its release, *Robot Man* immediately caused a huge sensation worldwide. Audiences were captivated by the image of the genius inventor and superhero in the film, and the special effects and exciting action sequences were breathtaking. Social media was filled with enthusiastic discussions about the movie, with fans expressing their love and admiration for RoboMan.
The film's box office soared, breaking numerous records and becoming one of the highest-grossing movies of its time. The image of RoboMan quickly became a sensation, and related merchandise such as toys and clothing became hot commodities. People imitated RoboMan's attire and even dressed up as this superhero at various events and parties.
The success of *Robot Man* was not only a huge commercial success but also had a profound impact on the superhero film genre. It laid the foundation for the rise of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and inspired a surge of similar films. RoboMan became a cultural phenomenon, representing technology, courage, and intelligence, influencing the values and aesthetics of a generation. People's love for this superhero transcends the movie screen, becoming a cultural symbol that inspires dreams and creativity.
Many people didn't expect that the movie "Amazing" would be so popular, which may also be related to the attack last year. The vulnerable Amelia needed heroes, and superheroes could just heal her emotional wounds.
Especially the last line: "I am the Mech Man!"
It ignited the entire audience, and thunderous applause erupted.
