I'm not just an action star

Chapter 517 Brother Long, We Are Sorry For You

Come on, Luo Lin also lived in Wu Long's house in the name of writing.Before "The Lord of the Rings" was finished, she could always have a reason to stay by Wu Long's side and be with Wu Long.

When she is with Wu Long, no matter what her identity is, others will respect her very much.In the past, the way many men looked at her allowed her to guess what the other person was thinking.

But ever since she appeared by Wu Long's side, those men didn't dare to have those inner thoughts when they looked at her.

Or there is, and I dare not show it so clearly.

"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" has indeed been written, and it can be sold after being approved and printed in a factory.Because it is spoken in English and written in English.After Lorraine finished writing the English version, she translated it into Chinese for Shufei Publishing House.

Western Fantasy, it is necessary to translate English into Chinese to have that flavor.

What Lorraine has finished is only the first part of the "Lord of the Rings Trilogy", and "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" and "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" will continue to be written.

However, will Lorraine leave after the "Lord of the Rings Trilogy" is finished?

No, she doesn't want to leave.

By Wu Long's side, she can not only learn to write, but more importantly, the feeling of being valued by others.She is obsessed with this feeling.

After writing the first "Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring", she had a bold idea.The Lord of the Rings seems to have a story in The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring.She wanted to stay by Wu Long's side by writing a prequel.

She thought that those film companies must also want Wu Long to make a prequel.

Wu Long came to Hao Lai Hu to meet with Scott to discuss the filming locations and actors.He began to officially enter the shooting of "Lord of the Rings".

"Kate and Liv both have good acting skills. They can play the elf queen and elf princess well. These are actors of other roles, and my initial intention is them. You make an appointment, and I will let them come to see you."

Kate is the queen of the elves, Liv is the princess of the elves, and Wu Long is the prince of the elves. I have to say that you are all elves.Scott grumbled inwardly.

However, Scott, who had read the script, approved Wu Long to play the elf prince.

Wu Long is so handsome!

He plays the prince of elves and can be more like elves.

Wu Long's martial arts is superb!

Wu Long can perform better in some action scenes of the elf prince.Especially for things like archery, the posture of drawing a bow and shooting arrows is more difficult than holding a sword.

Some handsome actors, celebrities, and even first-line actors, some of them held their bows and shot arrows in a strange posture.Why is it strange, but I can't tell.

"Are they all willing to accept Rocky's special training?"

Wu Long took over the list of actors and looked through the information of these actors.

At the beginning, Wu Long told Scott that no matter whether these actors can be selected in the end, they must first go to Rocky to receive some basic skills training.

Although he does not plan to use oriental martial arts in "The Lord of the Rings", he also requires the actors in the action scenes to show a certain amount of strength and action fighting performance.

Otherwise, if you take a sword or an ax, but give people a feeling of lightness or softness when you fight, that's not okay.

The thrust must be fast, and the thrust must be steady and not trembling to the end, this is the basic.

The chop must be fierce, and the sword must not flutter to the end. This is also the basic principle.

Cold weapon fighting in the West is just the same.Add some skills when turning around or changing moves, and Wu Long's request can be fulfilled.

The audience looked, at least not like ordinary people fighting with props.It was a desperate fight against the background of that era and that story.

Rocky's special training is mainly about the sense of strength and fighting performance.To achieve a sense of power and violence when shooting, this requires targeted training.

Rocky is the UFC champion, and he also learned Chinese martial arts from Wu Long. It can be said that he has both East and West.I have made a movie with Wu Long again, and I can understand Wu Long's meaning very well.Let him teach, the most appropriate.

If the actor selected by Scott does not go to Rocky for training because he may not be selected in the end, then he will definitely miss the filming of "Lord of the Rings".

Participate in training, there is a great opportunity.

Without training, there is no opportunity.

For the movies that can play Wu Long, even if these actors reject other movies and waste time, they still have to accept Rocky's special training. No one is unwilling.

As long as you can act in Wu Long's movies, whether you are an actor or an actress, your worth and status can be improved.It's another $[-] million movie with a big investment and a big production. Those who don't seize the opportunity must be fools.

After reading the introduction, Wu Long called Rocky to inquire about the special training of these actors. After getting good evaluations, he approved of Scott's choice.

In other words, Wu Long did not veto Scott's choice of actors.In this way, it not only gave Scott a lot of face, made Scott feel trusted by Wu Long, but also made others feel that Wu Long would really delegate power in his work and conduct.

Next is the choice of location. After watching the video materials in Scott's hands, Wu Long decided on Xinxilan as the location for the shooting.

This choice, without asking Scott, Wu Long directly decided.

This makes Si

Kurt couldn't help suspecting that New Zealand-born songstress Haley Westner played a role.You can guess this from the fact that Wu Long wrote a song for Westna.

In fact, when Westna said that "neversaygoodbye" was a song written by Wu Long for her, many outsiders speculated that the location of "Lord of the Rings" was Xinxilan.

When the decision was announced to the outside world, many people on the Internet said that it was indeed so.And released the screenshot of his prediction at the beginning to prove that his speculation was correct.

Of course, this also confirmed Wu Long's gossip rumors.

Some people even boldly speculated that the song of "Lord of the Rings" might also be sung by Westna.There are also people who bet and swear and open the market online.

The shooting project of "The Lord of the Rings" is huge, and many scenes are a combination of fiction and reality.Panoramas use miniatures.

For example, the city of Gondor, according to the scale of 1:72, the physical model is six meters high and is made of polystyrene and resin.

Standing in front of the model, one can immediately marvel at the size of the model.

But compared to reducing the ratio of 72, it has to be finely crafted.The details on the city walls, the imprints after a long time of rain, the streets, and the houses in the city all have to show a sense of reality in the camera.

A model like yours needs a lot.

There are also weapons, which must conform to the medieval feeling, and cannot make the audience feel like products made by modern equipment.

For the original shooting, landscaping experts were asked to plant various flowers and trees, and build small bridges and other landscapes according to the scene set in the preview two years before the shooting started.

Wu Long had to meet the construction deadline, so it was naturally impossible to make arrangements two years in advance.It's not difficult, you can transplant it, but you need to spend a little more money.Otherwise, after deducting Wu Long's [-] million US dollar remuneration, how will the [-] million US dollar production cost be spent?

You know, the original version was shot in three consecutive shots just to save money.The production cost of the trilogy was less than [-] million U.S. dollars.If Wu Long now costs [-] million U.S. dollars in production costs for each film, it can be said that he has eaten very poorly.

In order to cover it up, it is natural to spend more money in the name of being in a hurry.Of course, the big head was actually given to Shi Lei's film special effects company.

There is very little news about Wu Long who is involved in the filming, as well as the news about the filming of "Lord of the Rings".

For Scott, if Wu Long hadn't done a lot of preliminary work, he thought it would be impossible to complete such a huge trilogy within a year.

It takes a long time just to determine the script and shooting details, props, models, scenes, storyboards, etc.

For example, which ones were shot in the studio, which ones were shot on location, and which ones were shot in an outdoor studio.

What artificial scenes need to be arranged for location shooting, how to set up and arrange for studio shooting, what kind of framing for outdoor studio, etc.Xiushu

All need an overall arrangement to allocate the shooting time and plan.

Like indoor shooting, how to do the interior decoration is reasonable, and how to place things.

These, shortly after Wu Long signed the contract with the film company, handed them over to him in batches to arrange for people to do them.

Only by getting close to Wu Long's shooting in this way, can we know that behind Wu Long's seemingly lucky success is hard work that others can't see.

Scott is an old director, so he naturally knows how to make a movie.Sometimes, the arrangement of the scene will need to be adjusted because the camera shows that it is not what it is supposed to be.

But when he got these details of Wu Long and looked at them, and then the feeling during the actual shooting, he realized why Wu Long could make movies so fast and so well.

Because, as long as the filming process is done according to Wu Long's arrangement and plan, it can be completed smoothly.

It seems that Wu Long already knew that this kind of shooting is the best, and this kind of arrangement is the most perfect.

This made Scott feel that it is very likely that Wu Long has a professional team dedicated to him in the imperial capital, otherwise Wu Long would not be able to perform so perfectly.

Of course, everyone now knows that Wu Long is a genius.

Maybe a genius can do it.

It is indeed a genius that Wu Long can do it.

Regarding Wu Longhe's exclamation about the filming, Scott held back in his heart and did not say it to the outside world.

There is a rule that many people are afraid of when making movies, that is, before the movie is released, or before it is successful, don't talk about how easy it is to make a movie, or how perfect it is.

It is often said that for movies that say this, either there is an accident during filming, or the movie ends up hitting the box office.

But the more he kept it in his heart, the more he gradually developed a heart of admiration for Wu Long.He is much older than Wu Long, and he made movies earlier than Wu Long.It turned out that he worshiped Wu Long, which was unprecedented.

He decided that once the box office hits big, he must praise Wu Long in all aspects, otherwise he will not be able to express his admiration for Wu Long.

There is no news about Wu Long and "The Lord of the Rings", and the ever-popular horror film "Latent" has also been released.

In the end, the global box office total was 3000 million US dollars, which is 6000 million US dollars less than the 3000 million US dollars of "Spiritual Ghost Records".

This made Wen Zhiren and Werner very frustrated.

Obviously, the production cost is higher than that of "Smart: Ghost Records"

A hundred times, why is the score worse than "Spirit: Ghost Story"?

Knowing that Wu Long was filming "The Lord of the Rings", they just secretly reported the results to Wu Long.He wanted to plead guilty to Wu Long, but he was worried about delaying Wu Long's work.

Wu Long took the time to meet them secretly.

Seeing the decadent appearance of the two, Wu Long was taken aback.

"I said you two, how did you do this? You don't shave your beards, and you don't cut your hair. If it weren't for the media reports, I really can't believe that you would make yourself like this."

It's okay if Wu Long didn't say anything, but when he said it, Wen Zhiren knelt down in front of Wu Long, grabbed Wu Long's thigh and cried:

"Brother Long, I'm sorry for you."

Seeing Wen Zhiren's appearance, Werner on the side thought that Wu Long's country likes to kneel down and beg for forgiveness like this. He also followed Wen Zhiren's way, kneeling in front of Wu Long, holding Wu Long's other thigh and crying:

"Brother Long, I'm sorry for you too."

"Why, why are you sorry for me?" Wu Long helped them up. "The outside world doesn't know the relationship between you and me."

According to media reports, Wen Zhiren and Werner feel that the box office of "Latent" is not as good as "Smart: Ghost Story", and they are in a bad mood.

Wu Long thought it shouldn't be.After all, with a box office of more than 150 million yuan, the production cost was only [-] million US dollars, and no one said it was unsuccessful no matter where it was placed.

A movie with a production cost of tens of millions of dollars can have a box office of nearly 150 million, which is already a celebration of success.You only have $[-] million, and you still say you can't succeed.See what the return on investment is?Aren't you trying to piss people off?

Moreover, the total global box office of the original version of "Latent" in Wu Long's previous life did not exceed 5000 million, only [-] million US dollars.

But even so, the return on investment is 100, okay?

"Tell me, what's going on?" Wu Long asked with concern.

"The production cost of "Spiritual: Ghost Story" is only 6000 US dollars, and it can earn 150 million US dollars in the global box office. However, "Latent" cost 3000 million US dollars, and the production cost is a hundred times that of the former. But the box office is [-] million dollars less than the former..."

"Stop! Stop! Stop!" Wu Long interrupted Wen Zhiren and turned to Werner:

"You have the same reason, no other reason?"

Werner nodded.

"That's the reason. We drank for a few days, and we didn't dare to call you to report when we were drunk for a few days."

Wu Long laughed out loud.It is really the same as reported in the media, which is really dumbfounding.

"You guys, you are wrong!"

Wen Zhiren and Werner looked at Wu Long suspiciously, not knowing why it was wrong.

"I know that if the global gross box office exceeds [-] million, it is a success. Compared with "Spiritual: Ghost Story"..." Wen Zhiren explained to Wu Long.

"The Ghost Story is a special case, understand? No one can copy it, including me. Even if you make a sequel, I ask you, I still give you $[-], and you can still make a second one ?"

Wen Zhiren and Werner thought about it carefully, nodded and shook their heads.

"It's possible to shoot, but I don't think this is what you want to talk about." Wen Zhiren said.

Warner also said: "It's only [-] dollars, and it's a repetition if you shoot it again. The audience won't buy it."

"You see, this is the key. Like "Spirit: Ghost Story", I think it should be more luck. If you don't believe me, I will give you the script of the second part of "Spirit: Ghost Story", and you can estimate the production cost yourself. Let’s see if the box office will be higher than the first one after filming.”

"Or if you want to shoot "Latent 2", I can also give you the script. You choose."

After the two discussed, they unanimously chose to shoot "Latent 2".

"Let's shoot "Latent 2", taking advantage of the popularity of the first film."

"Yes, if the two films take turns to make sequels, it will confuse the audience's memory."

After the two explained their reasons, they were appreciated by Wu Long.

"You made the right choice, which shows that you have come out of the previous persistence. This is very good. Sometimes directors need to be persistent, and sometimes they can't be too persistent."

Wu Long took out the script of "Latent 2" and gave it to the two of them.

"Estimate for yourself, how much will the production cost?"

The two read the script and discussed their estimated production costs.

"One million dollars."

After finishing speaking, the two looked at Wu Long cautiously, for fear that their estimation would exceed Wu Long's expectation.You know, Wu Long's production cost is always so small that it is unbelievable.

"Okay, let's shoot according to the cost you said. Don't worry, you are capable, and 500 million dollars is also my budget."

After Wu Long left, Wen Zhiren said with lingering fear:

"Fortunately, we kept production costs to a minimum."

Werner nodded frequently.

"Yes yes. If it weren't for that, I'm afraid we would have failed."

"Also, if we choose to shoot "Spirit: Ghost Story 2", I'm afraid we will disappoint Brother Long."

"It seems that we are still smart."

"It shows that we do have potential. Brother Long didn't misjudge us."

"quack--"
