    Indeed, Debao Film Company actually held Tony Leung Ka Fai's film contract. This news made Duan Zihao stunned for a while and gave him a headache.  He didn¡¯t expect that Dickson Poon would do this, and even openly offered the contract to poach people after filming.  What is it called? ??????????????????????????????????     what to do?  Duan Zihao had no choice but to ask Fatty Wang Jing to go to Debao to see if he could spend money to buy the contract.  ¡°It¡¯s a pity that what Pan Disheng wants is not money.  What he wants is a breath.  He just wants to see Duan Zihao¡¯s jokes.  ¡­ When the fat Wang Jing arrived at Debao Group, Pan Disheng did not meet him at all, but on the surface he was very enthusiastic and solemn. Not only did his confidant A Yong greet him warmly, he also asked his beautiful secretary to communicate with the fat man.  Normally, the fat man would be very interested in this beautiful secretary, but now is not the time and he doesn't have the inclination.  Therefore, when he tried three times but failed and ended up sitting on the bench, he realized that he was being played.  Fatty went straight back to Movie Emperor Entertainment and told Duan Zihao about the matter.  Duan Zihao didn¡¯t have high hopes at first. He was very familiar with Pan Disheng and understood his thoughts.  ¡°Don¡¯t look at it, Dickson Pan is from a good background and has a high reputation, but his mind is very narrow.  The two fought several times, each winning or losing, but in the end he still dominated him. According to Pan Disheng's temperament, he probably would not let go easily.  As expected, Duan Zihao stopped negotiating with Debao.  At this time, the filming of "Tomb Raiders" has been started for a week.  Among them, Tony Leung Ka Fai also has a lot of roles.  According to the current situation, Yingdi Entertainment has three options.  First, ignore Debao¡¯s statement.  Just tear up the agreement and let Tony Leung finish filming this movie.  However, doing so will have a very bad impact on Tony Leung, who will be considered a breach of contract and a loss of trust, and Movie King Entertainment will also have a reputation of bullying others.  Second, Yingdi Entertainment once again contacted Debao Company and worked hard to eliminate this matter virtually.  However, it requires too much effort and time, and it may not be successful.     third.  Let Tony Leung Ka Fai shoot two dramas at the same time, so as not to give the other party an excuse to find trouble.  It can also save a lot of unnecessary trouble.  But the problem is that Tony Leung Ka Fai is a big man, and the drama "Tomb Raiders" itself is quite tiring, and now he is worried that filming two movies in a row will be too much for him.  How to solve it in the end.  Everyone is waiting to see, especially those media reporters who are worried about the world being in chaos. They have put their eyes and focus on the Film Emperor Entertainment.  In this regard, Duan Zihao¡¯s decision was to ignore it!  That¡¯s right, those are the four words.  Ignore it.  Aren¡¯t you, Dickson Pan, proud?  Don't you want to use this to cause trouble for me?  Then I won¡¯t let you down!  It depends on what you do¡ª¡ª I have to say, this move is cruel.  Pan Disheng originally designed thousands of strategies to deal with Duan Zihao's actions.  But they didn't take any action at all.  It¡¯s like you¡¯ve exerted all your strength and punched a sponge, not to mention how boring it is.  What to do?  Pan Disheng was dumbfounded.  Those media reporters who were waiting to see the show were also dumbfounded.  ¡°It¡¯s like waiting to see a great boxing match, who knows.  One party actually abstained Looking back, Pan Disheng took the contract to court, but Duan Zihao sent fat Wang Jing to deal with it.  He is still immersed in filming.  Not affected by external conditions at all. ?¡­ ?Scene 5, Act 3 of "Tomb Raiders".  The camera rustled on the track.  ??In the camera, Mengyou Ping, played by Tony Leung Ka Fai, looks up at the moon, and a wolf howls is heard in the distance.  "I still have to keep this secret after all." Liang Jiahui said lightly.  This scene was filmed as a prequel to the role of Tony Leung Ka-fai, who protects the tomb with an oil bottle.  You must know that "Tomb Raiders" was originally a suspense-themed movie.  Following the original story line, there should be many interludes and flashbacks.  But Duan Zihao hates this kind of shooting technique.  This is not to say that these techniques are bad, there are many excellent movies that use this shooting technique.  For example, "Forrest Gump" in the previous life is a flashback, and "Spring in the Cowherd Class" is also a flashback.  An excellent example of using narrative filming is India's "Three Idiots Making Trouble in Bollywood".  As well as the Hong Kong classic movie "Dark War" and so on.  ¡°However, Duan Zihao doesn¡¯t like doing this very much, because in his opinion, although making a movie is also telling a story, it cannot simply follow the context of the story. The reason is?Stories are told with the mouth and listened to with the ears. What is used most is the heart, which is used to outline the scenes and create story scenes for oneself.  But movies are different. Shooting movies is the responsibility of the director. He relies on the camera to tell stories to the audience. The audience uses their eyes to watch intuitively. They don't use their heart to outline the scene, but are captured by the director's lens.  In this way, if the director often uses flashbacks or interludes, it will easily interrupt the audience's sense of the camera. If the story is originally being told, but a foreign scene is suddenly inserted, there will be a sense of detachment or disconnection.  feel.  Because of this, Duan Zihao doesn¡¯t like using this so-called movie technique to tell stories.  Especially after watching "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" directed by Xu Ke in his previous life, Duan Zihao felt even more that this kind of continuous insertion of flashbacks would give people a sense of detachment from constant time travel. Originally, he wanted to watch Yang Zirong outwit Tiger Mountain.  "Weihushan", but scenes of Han Geng's guy keep appearing. Damn it, is this a modern drama or a model drama?  !  Because of this, when Duan Zihao was filming "Tomb Robbers Notes", he inserted the narrative about the stuffy oil bottle in the original story into a prequel to the story, serving as an introduction to the new story.  Of course, this may result in less suspense, but it can tell the story more completely and smoothly.  "Cut!" Duan Zihao shouted from behind the camera, "Jiahui, you did a very good job in this scene, but your emotions need to be calmer to give people a sense of helplessness." "And the prop master, you  Renovate this ancient tomb to make it look like filming "Shu Mountain", it's so fantastic, what we want is realism," Duan Zihao said to the prop master.  The prop master had a grimace.  When I found Lan Naicai, I didn't know what he was muttering.  Lan Naicai came over and said to Duan Zihao: "Director Duan, the prop master just said that the model you requested is too high. According to the design in the script, they simply can't make it. " Duan Zihao was stunned, "How can they  Didn't you tell me this morning?  " "I'm afraid you'll get angry. You're famous for not recognizing your relatives when filming.  The requirements are very high" There were some words that Lan Naicai didn't say out loud. Duan Zihao was speechless. "What do you mean, am I a tyrant? It's so scary. "If something happens, don't say it on the spot.  Now he is shirk- ing what kind of airplane he wants to do!  "This time Duan Zihao really got angry. Lan Naicai was speechless. "In fact, Duan Zihao's request was a little too high. He asked the prop master to build a large tomb of 500 square feet, and the design in the tomb was even more original.  There are lots of rocks, intertwined walkways, and a few weird creatures popping up from time to time during filming. It is simply more complicated than filming a Hollywood science fiction movie in the previous life. With the skills of these Hong Kong people, how could they create such a scene.  Seeing that Duan Zihao was getting really angry, it was understandable if he thought about it. The filming was going well, but he suddenly said that the scene couldn't be completed and the special effects couldn't be done. This was very frustrating for everyone.  At least take a break. Duan Zihao called Lan Naicai, Hong Jinbao, Du Kefeng, the prop master, lighting engineer and others to have a meeting together. Duan Zihao unceremoniously criticized the prop master for his lack of work.  Responsible, there are other people who knew but didn't report it The atmosphere became very tense as soon as it started. Then Duan Zihao said: "No matter what.  This matter must be resolved, and it must be resolved immediately. If you want people or things, I will give them to you!  " The scolded prop master rubbed his neck and said: "Director, I have nothing to say if you scold me, but I tell you the truth, no matter what you offer, this thing won't work!  We don¡¯t have that ability!  " "Yes, Director Duan, the conditions you require are too high. It is a huge tomb, full of strange rocks, and more importantly, there are weird creatures living underground. This is too science fiction and we can't do it.  " Duan Zihao might as well ask these guys to talk back, so he asked Lan Naicai: "What about you, do you think you can handle it?  " Lan Naicai adjusted his glasses and said: "The big tomb is easy to talk about. It can be solved by finding a suitable place and rearranging it. There are many strange rocks, which can be made with foam plastic or plaster. As for the weird creatures, they are really  There is no specific image, and we can¡¯t create it by fabricating it out of thin air.  " Duan Zihao didn't expect that even Lan Naicai, whom he respected most, would say this, so he said: "Then if I draw a figure, or what a monster looks like, can you make it?  " "I don't dare to vouch for this, and I want you to graphically illustrate it.  " "Then give me ten minutes!  "Duan Zihao said very simply. Everyone, look at me,??Looking at you, I don¡¯t believe it. What do you mean, ten minutes?  Could it be that a monster will appear in ten minutes?  In a secluded corner of the crew, Duan Zihao bit his pen and looked at the manuscript paper. The various terrifying tomb monsters or underground creatures he had seen in his previous life kept popping up in his mind.  What should I draw?  he thought.  Gollum in the "Lord of the Rings" series?  Lord Voldemort from the Harry Potter series?  Thoughts flashed through his mind.  Suddenly, Duan Zihao¡¯s mind lit up.  "Yes!" He picked up the pen and began to write on the manuscript paper.  In a moment, a ghastly-looking monster with pointed ears appeared on the manuscript paper in a crouching form.  Seeing the monster he drew, Duan Zihao felt very satisfied.  Because in his memory, this is definitely an underground creature with a sense of design, or a terrifying monster.  It is the underground man-eating beast from the Hollywood horror movie "Dark Invasion".  I remember clearly that this kind of man-eating beast is very sensitive to light and is afraid of bright light. They have no eyesight, but they can walk freely in the dark and swim around. They have sharp canine teeth and sharp claws. It can be said that they are in the dark.  The world is simply a powerhouse on the food chain.  When Duan Zihao handed the monster drawing he drew to Lan Naicai and others.  Including Lan Naicai himself, as well as Hong Jinbao, everyone was shocked.  Especially after listening to Duan Zihao¡¯s description of the appearance and temperament of this ¡°monster¡±.  And after setting the attack ability, I was even more surprised.  You know, for a long time, Hong Kong movies, whether they are horror or thriller, have not had a monster that can be used.  I have to recommend one, that is, a zombie wearing Qing Dynasty clothes.  But this zombie monster theme has been disabled.  The audience will shout "jumping and walking" when they see it.  "Put a charm on your forehead," and "Hold your breath."  There is no freshness at all.  But now.  However, Duan Zihao designed a terrifying image of a monster with sharp teeth in just ten minutes, and matched it with very clever skills and characteristics.  It is afraid of light and relies on its sense of smell to detect prey.  The whole body is sticky and naked.  Like a hairless monkey.  He has strong attack power and animalistic nature, can bite people's necks, and likes to eat people's hearts and lungs "Ahem, Ah Hao, this monster you designed is really terrible!" Hong Jinbao is a very manly person,  After listening to Duan Zihao's narration, I actually felt a little shuddering.  People are always afraid of unknown creatures.  Especially something as ugly and scary as this.  Lan Nai is the kind of guy who likes to deal with all kinds of monsters. He collects "Blade Runner" and "The Evil Dead".  And "Zombie Crossing the World" and so on, the monsters in them are also very scary, but the scarier they are, the more interesting he finds them, so he is the only one in the whole team whose eyes shine, as hot as seeing his first love.  "Okay. It's really great! I've never seen a monster like this! It's so amazing!" Lan Naicai stroked the pattern with his hand, as if he was stroking something beloved.  Others hate the cold.  They can¡¯t learn this kind of heavy taste.  "Then let's look at it. Can it be made?" Duan Zihao asked.  Only then did Lan Nai wake up, "It's difficult, it's really difficult. At most I can only make a prototype out of dough, but it will take a lot of time and effort to make it come alive. I'm afraid  I can't take it!" Duan Zihao didn't expect that even Lan Naicai would say this, so he said, "Is there no other way?" "Yes¡ª¡ª" Lan Naicai said solemnly.  "If you can invite the American director Peter Jackson over, then I'm sure this monster will come back to life." Peter Jackson?  ??Duan Zihao is no stranger. Nowadays, he is a well-known special effects director in Hollywood. He became famous with "The Dead", but his most outstanding achievement in his previous life was shooting three "Lord of the Rings" in a row.  Inviting the Grandmaster of "The Lord of the Rings"?  This Lan Naicai also has a vicious vision.  "That's right, as long as you, boss, can invite Peter Jackson to Hong Kong to help shoot the special effects part of this movie, then our movie will definitely be a success." Lan Naicai said with certainty.  Next to him, Hong Jinbao was unhappy, "We're inviting ghost guys again! Didn't Ah Hao say before that we want to create our own Chinese-language tomb robbing film, and we will never be looked down upon by those ghost guys, but now we have to invite them This is not me  beatFace?  " "Yeah, doesn't spending money to hire them make us a failure?  " "This drama is going to be in Hollywood, but it has to invite others to help. Isn't it bad?  ¡± Everyone feels that this seems very spineless, especially the signature of this drama is to create its own Chinese blockbuster. How can you ask a ghost guy to help? Duan Zihao didn¡¯t expect everyone¡¯s reaction to be so strong. He did say that before  , we have to rely on our own strength to complete this drama, but nowdo we really want to break our promise? When Lan Naicai saw that everyone was opposed to hiring foreign aid, he said: "We must face reality. According to our special effects capabilities, we can only  To be able to reach this point, we are still a long way from Hollywood; because of this, we should put aside our so-called self-esteem and work hard to learn the advanced technology there to strengthen and develop our movies.  " Everyone was silent. Hong Jinbao opened his mouth, wanting to object again, but in the end he didn't speak. Duan Zihao thought about it carefully, and then said to everyone: "Lan Naicai is right, I know everyone has high self-esteem.  Strong, especially we hope that our own movie can be completed without asking for any help, but we must admit that we cannot make this movie without the help of Hollywood special effects; on the other hand, even if we reluctantly make it, the result will be  A failed work.  Instead of making a bad movie, we should put down our self-esteem and figure, and learn from Hollywood's special effects!  " "Besides, instead of spending more time and energy re-exploring this kind of movie special effects, why can't we use a good attitude and learn from Hollywood people as teachers?  There is no end to learning, and those who master first come first. Since Hollywood¡¯s special effects technology is better than ours, we must admit this, and our advantage is kung fu movies. I believe that if one day our movies can also go to the world, they  I will also be very open-minded to learn our kung fu techniques Finally, I hope everyone will remember one thing, movies have no national boundaries, only good or bad!  " Duan Zihao's words are resounding and well-founded. What's more, he himself knows very well that when "The Matrix" becomes popular all over the world in the future, Chinese Kung Fu will also become popular around the world with this show. Many Hollywood directors will invite famous Chinese Kung Fu actors.  Directors or kung fu instructors went to Hollywood to help with filming. Then there were many good films with Chinese kung fu elements, such as the "Delivery Express" series, the "Suicide Squad" series, and even "Super Body". People such as Hong Jinbao are not idiots.  It makes no sense. When Duan Zihao said this, it became clear that we are trying to use the doctrine to extract the essence¡ª¡ªso Hong Jinbao clapped his hands and shouted: "Fuck you, then let's invite that Peter Jackson over.  , see what he can do!  "(To be continued) ps: I went to visit relatives far away, the update is late, I'm sorry everyone!!!
