Chapter 726 I’m Going to Make a Movie!

After a busy day's work, when Yin Jun returned to his manor at No. 20 Shih Hoon Road, the lights were already on.

The manor is brightly lit. Even if Yin Jun has not returned, lights will be turned on in many places at night to avoid blind spots for the defense forces.

In fact, on the one hand, Yin Jun also likes to see the shining lights, because this will dispel the desolation of some large rooms with few people.

After Guan Zhilin became her own woman, she spent less time here because she had more classes recently, and then she had to study for a driver's license in order to drive the Porsche sports car that Yin Jun bought for her.

Besides, having been eaten by Brother Jun, Miss Guan no longer worries about her future. Naturally, she is not as eager to crush Wen Bixia to death as before.

Wen Bixia has been visiting less recently because she has decided to return to Kylin TV, but ATV over there still has three drama appointments with her. Although Huang Xizhao and McDonald's Bear will not embarrass her, this little girl is also a talker. As for those who have faith, because they have been filming three movies together recently, they are so busy that they almost don’t even have time to sleep, so naturally it’s not easy.

Originally, when Yin Jun went to Aunt Zhang's place for dinner, he asked her to slow down and take her time. However, when Wen Bixia didn't say anything, Aunt Zhang spoke first.

"We are originally from a poor family. If we have to shrink from this difficulty, what will happen to her when she grows up to be so coquettish? She must work hard enough to live a better life!"

When Aunt Zhang said this, Yin Jun was speechless.

He knew that Aunt Zhang had never thought that her daughter would have to rely on others, and the previous decades of hard work made Aunt Zhang feel that it was a good thing to be able to continue working and make money, and there was no need to be so pretentious.

In her previous life, when Wen Bixia grew up, she was very enthusiastic about her work. I think it was because of what her mother said.

Yin Jun has his own large study room. There are several huge safes in the corner, which contain his main memory-resistant notebooks, scripts, etc.

Even Wen Bixia and Guan Zhilin rarely come here on weekdays, let alone other people.

Even every time a servant comes in to clean, there must be two bodyguards following him. As long as Yin Jun is not at home, there will be two people who are responsible for watching over here. If there is any movement, they will take action immediately.

Sitting on the sofa chair, Yin Jun first took a sip of the tea made by the servant, closed his eyes and rested for a while, then stood up and turned the combination plate and opened one of the safes.

After looking at the signs posted inside, the young man flipped through it for a while and took out three script books. After standing there thinking for a while, he put two of them back, took one and sat back on the chair. .

There are four big characters written on the cover of this script.

The speed of life and death.

Yes.

This is the movie Yin Jun plans to make next year.

This small-budget, popular action film eventually became a global hit, directly elevating Keanu Reeves to the status of a first-line star. His handsome and heroic image is even more likable than "The Matrix".

Even though the heroine Sandra Bullock became more popular than Keanu Reeves in the future and directly became an Oscar-winning actress, it did not shake Keanu Reeves' status in the hearts of movie fans.

In the past, when Elvis Presley indulged in drinking and sex, Americans all had a wish, that is, to lock Elvis in a room with only pen and paper and recording equipment, and let him just work hard on writing songs and not do other things. .

Keanu Reeves "went astray" and was making art films all day long. Movie fans around the world also have one wish - not to waste his talent anymore, just tie him to make action movies!

Back to "Speed ​​of Life and Death".

The plot of this action movie is actually very simple. It is the story of a policeman fighting against an evil retired policeman who is disabled and has no livelihood due to a disability.

The plot is simple, but the process is very complicated. The storyline is reversed one after another. Coupled with the exciting and tense scenes, people can't take their eyes away while watching the movie.

Yin Jun wanted to make this movie because it is a clean and neat movie. It doesn’t need to be too complicated to shoot. It doesn’t require a trip to the desert or an ambush in the woods.

There are only three main scenes.

on the spacious highway.

On the subway.

Plus an airport.

The scene layout does not need to be too complicated, but the configuration is not simple either.

Buses are easy to talk about, and roads are easy to talk about, but the scene on the subway, the scene where the subway rushes to the station entrance, and the scene where the bus rushes over and blows up an airplane are all very particular.

Of course it is impossible for all of this to be true. Yin Jun has the money, and the subway company and the airport will not allow Yin Jun to do this.

This requires very superb special effects technology.

Yin Jun needed a large space to make a fake subway station entrance, shoot it on the real subway, and then rely on editing to hold the final scene together.

In the scene where the bus collides with the plane and explodes, Yin Jun cannot have the luxury of using a real plane to blow up the scene, even if it is a plane that is about to be scrapped, so he can only ask the special effects artist to make a plane of the same size.

Although it is a bit more work, it is still dozens or hundreds of times cheaper than a real airplane.

Yin Jun has thought about the above-mentioned problems during the filming process dozens of times.

With the finished movie from his previous life as a reference, the boy saved a lot of thought and could just work on it based on the finished product.

All that's left is how to make it.

The director must be Yin Jun. As his first joint work and the first film of Qilin Film Company to make a name for himself, Yin Jun was worried about who would be filming "Speed".

Because there is a huge gap between American movies in the 1980s and American movies in the 1990s, let alone Hong Kong.

Director Xiangjiang's concepts and filmmaking abilities are still completely unable to control "Speed". If left to them, it will ruin the classic.

However, Yin Jun doesn't mind finding a few director Miao Zi and letting them film with him and be responsible for some specific matters. In this way, he can not only make a good movie, but also learn a lot.

For example, directors such as Yuan Kui, Wu Yusen, Tang Jili, and Chen Musheng are more suitable for this kind of film, and the most famous among them is Wu Yusen. He is still making movies in Jiahe, but he has been marginalized.

The photographer was a little troublesome. Yin Jun was used to using Zhong Zhiwen. Unfortunately, he had just finished filming "The Story of Hu Yue" and was loaned out by Lin Lingdong. Naturally, Yin Jun was embarrassed to compete with Lin Lingdong. .

But among the four major photography tycoons in Hong Kong, except for Duke Feng, who is still running with the crew in Baodao, the remaining two are all in Hong Kong, and they are very famous and high-level.

The director's assistant and photographer have been selected, but Yin Jun also needs a set director who can support the scene. It is definitely impossible for Le Yiling to be the set director again. If it doesn't work, Yin Jun is going to ask Shi Shaoming to take care of it. With his ability The ability is completely more than enough.

Needless to say, the special effects team must have brought Stan Winston’s team over from the digital realm.

Yin Jun had already inquired about it, and Stan Weston had already made the props and models used in "E.T.", and he would be able to come and join him in February at the most.

Stan Winston and the American special effects engineers are naturally the leaders, but Yin Jun’s special effects team in Hong Kong, Luo Lixian’s team, must also learn and start from scratch. It is rare to cooperate with international-level masters, so it depends on how much Luo Lixian can steal from his masters. .

After getting the people behind the scenes, the three most important roles, the hero, the heroine and the villain, have to be arranged with a lot of thought.

The heroine is a bit better, either Lin Qingxia or Zhong Chuhong, but from the perspective of time allowance, Zhong Chuhong is more suitable. Moreover, Zhong Chuhong is hearty and generous, and the filming is similar to the role of Sandra.

The hero's best friend is the one who was first shot by the hero and crippled, and then went to the villain's house and was killed by a bomb. There is no doubt that Eddie Murphy should play it. , he is his own actor anyway, if he doesn’t take care of him, who will he take care of?

The main villain is also simple. Zeng Zi, a seasoned villain, is the most suitable for such a role.

The last remaining male protagonist gave Yin Jun some trouble.

Yin Jun's template is Keanu Reeves, he'd better be tall, handsome, and agile.

But after looking through all the celebrities in Xiangjiang, there is no suitable one now.

Zhou Runfa is tall and has a fleshy face, which is not good.

Liu Dehua has flesh on his face, so that’s not okay.

Zhang Guorong is not tall, no.

The same goes for Liang Chaowei.

Zheng Shaoqiu is too thin and does not have that modern heroic spirit.

Liang Jiahui is not good-looking and handsome.

Huang Yuanshen... I'm not familiar with it, no.

Ten years later, the Chinese-German mixed-race Wang Minde could be used, and his image is quite suitable.

Without a suitable leading actor, Yin Jun is not going to make the film.

But if it doesn't work, then you have to ask Zhou Runfa to lose weight. There is no reason that Aamir Khan can lose 50 pounds in 5 months. You, Brother Zhou Fa, can't lose 30 pounds in 3 months, right?

…

Early the next morning, Yin Jun, who had been thinking about it all night, just came back after Shi Xuandao ran for exercise, and heard from the bodyguard who stayed behind that Huang Bogao was here.

This is what Yin Jun told his subordinates. If there is anything, they can come to him directly to discuss it, no matter where he is.

Huang Bogao was given such a high priority as soon as he joined the company. He is very motivated!

After washing up quickly, Yin Jun saw Huang Bogao in the hall.

"Master Jun!"

Huang Bogao stood up and handed Yin Jun a stack of information, "These are the people I have compiled for poaching. Take a look."

"You are quick." Yin Jun smiled, picked it up and started to read.

For the first piece of information, Huang Bogao actually chose Tan Yonglin, which surprised Yin Jun.

"Tan Yonglin's singing voice is mellow and full of magnetism. He can freely switch between treble and alto, and his lung capacity is extremely abundant. He is a good singer." Huang Bogao explained from the side, "And he has already There are many awards, including the top ten Chinese golden songs, the top ten golden songs, etc. They belong to people who can become superstars if they are cultivated. It is the most effective and quick way to recruit such people."

Nodding, Yin Jun turned to the second page, which was also an acquaintance.

Chen Baiqiang.

"Chen Baiqiang is a very potential new star of EMI. With the songs you gave him, he has been very popular recently. In line with the idea of ​​poaching others, weakening their strength, and strengthening myself, I think it is good to poach him ." Huang Bogao said, "Including Polygram's Tan Yonglin, the same is true. If they have both Zhang Guorong and Tan Yonglin, it will be difficult for us to win!"

"Haha, you are digging for the three major records!" Yin Jun said with a smile, "How about it, is your old club Warner next?"

"Warner is now in Greater China, and there is no sign of exerting any force at all. They are still focusing on Europe and the United States." Huang Bogao said, "For now, there will be no movement within three to five years... Next A singer, he is just an unknown person now, but a friend of mine said that he has great potential, he is a mixed race, handsome as hell, and he can definitely help us open up the European and American markets."

"Oh? There is such a singer?" Yin Jun was surprised. Where in Xiangjiang is there any outstanding mixed-race singer?

Turning to the third page, Yin Jun suddenly saw the face of a mixed-race young man. He was indeed handsome and full of vitality!

And Yin Jun recognized who this young man was at a glance.

Fei Xiang!

Fei Xiang was hailed as the most handsome guy by mainlanders in the 1980s!

Fei Xiang is considered by mainlanders to be more handsome than Tang Guoqiang and Chi Ziqiang, the two pretty boys in the 1980s!

But it’s not right!

Fei Xiang was still studying in the United States in 1980. He returned to the island in 1981, was discovered by Zhang Aijia and filmed, and then released an album.

Why have you become a new singer now?

Surprised, Yin Jun asked, "Where did he discover it? Is he still a student? Which record company has he signed with now?"

"Oh, yes, he is a student who went to college in the United States. But he has completed his credits and is waiting to get his diploma, so he went back to Treasure Island in advance to see if there are any good jobs and interview him first. Huang Bogao said, "Because he studied drama in the United States, he went to film companies and record companies for interviews.

Takarada EMI has taken a fancy to him and is preparing to sign a new singer contract with him. But my friend, the examiner responsible for interviewing him, told me that such an outstanding talent as Fei Xiang should not be looked down upon so much. With his appearance and voice characteristics, he can definitely become a talent! If you don't catch it properly, someone might snatch it away. "

Yin Jun nodded when he heard this.

Fei Xiang is indeed a smash hit superstar. It would be a huge waste not to get such a talent.

With his mixed-race identity, it is indeed easier to be accepted by Europe and the United States, just like Keanu Reeves is accepted by Asia.

Um! ?

Suddenly an idea flashed in Yin Jun's mind.

yes!

Mixed race, handsome guy, tall and thin... isn't this another version of Keanu Reeves! ?

He is the most suitable for the male protagonist of "Speed"! !
