Dinner was Liv's treat at a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown.

The place was not far from the office, and Liv walked over accompanied by two bodyguards. When I saw Bai Lu, let the bodyguard get off work in advance.

Liv was so happy that they met again a few days after they parted, and it was a strong hug as soon as they met.

Then go to the private room on the second floor and sit down, Liv said slightly apologetically: "I can only book here in a hurry." ”

Bai Lu said, "Why does it seem to be very raw?"

Liv smiled and began to order.

Yuan Long was worried about the movie, and he kept discussing it with Bai Lu during dinner. Liv didn't have a chance to speak.

Bai Lu said helplessly: "I talked about work for a few hours just now, and now we are still talking?"

After dinner, Liv asks Bai Lu to stay at her house. Yuan Long invited to live with the crew.

Bai Lu came for filming, and said to Liv: "It will be more convenient for me to live in the past." ”

Liv didn't insist on it, saying hello and saying that she had to go back to the company.

The bodyguard was not there, Bai Lu took on the responsibility of sending people off, asked the hotel where the crew stayed, and walked back with Liv.

Chinatown is to the south, and to the north is Wall Street, the center of the world economy, where Liv's insurance group is located.

As the two walked down the street, Liv said, "I remembered being in Los Angeles the other day." ”

Bai Lu smiled: "It's the same everywhere." ”

"Yes, then you carry me away. Liv laughed.

Bai Lu said the order, half-crouched down, and waited for Liv to jump up and carry her north.

Liv was happy, not caring about who she was, nor the eyes of the people around her. Quietly lying on the shoulders of Bai Lu, tasting a kind of happiness.

Liv whispered, "When I was a child, my dad carried me a few times, and then again. ”

Bai Lu said: "Don't say movie lines." ”

Liv laughed: "I learned a word, dog blood, real life is more bloody than the plot of the movie." ”

Bai Lu said, "Can't you learn something good?"

"I think it's good. ”

Well, walk a few streets, leave Chinatown, and continue north.

As he was walking, the phone rang on the white road. It's horse warfare. Ask him if he's not at home.

Bai Lu asked what he was doing, and Ma Zhan said, "The construction site has to be shut down for a few days." ”

"What?" Bai Lu asked, "Why is it stopped?"

Ma Zhan said: "I checked the land for the army and ordered that all the construction sites that had not yet been built should be stopped, and we would decide whether to start construction after verification." ”

Bai Lu was a little depressed: "Isn't it just to build a building? Why are there so many things?"

Ma Zhan said: "It's not aimed at you. It is a thorough investigation by the whole army. He paused and said, "I'm sorry." Are you at home? I'm going to go now. ”

Bai Lu smiled bitterly: "Don't be sorry." It's true to get this done quickly, and I'm not guilty of it. ”

"Sort of, wait for me. Ma Zhan wanted to hang up the phone.

Bai Lu said, "Don't wait. I'm in the United States. ”

"Why are you going to the United States?" asked Ma Zhan curiously.

"Can I jerk off?" Bai Lu was a little depressed, there have been too many things recently, and he felt that everything was not going well.

Ma Zhan smiled: "Don't worry, it's okay." Then he said, "I'll call you right away if there's something." ”

"Got it. "White Road hangs up the phone.

Liv asked, "Something's wrong?"

Bai Luen snorted and said that there were too many kinds of. Liv said: "Just emigrate, many rich people and officials in your country have emigrated, and you have also moved over, so there is not so much trouble." ”

Bai Lu said: "Impossible, people are in trouble when they are alive, and even people who are dead are in trouble. ”

Liv thought about herself and smiled, "You're right. ”

"My name is consistently correct. The tone was a bit gloomy.

Liv didn't want him to feel uncomfortable, and said, "Do you want to go on a trip? I have a yacht ......."

"Okay rich man, don't scare me into it. ”

The two of them said as they walked, time passed quickly, and the journey passed quickly. It didn't take long to come downstairs to the insurance group.

It's still an old wall and an old door, very inconspicuous, if it weren't for standing on Wall Street and sitting in the country, just such a building, it is estimated that it would have been demolished long ago.

Seeing a Chinese man coming back with Liv on his back, the doorman hurriedly greeted him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Bai Lu turned his head and asked Liv, "Don't come down yet?"

Liv jumped down with a smile: "Fortunately, it's night, if the employees see it......" Halfway through the words, there were three men in suits standing inside the glass door of the building, all of whom looked at Liv in surprise, and by the way, they glanced at Bai Lu with hostile eyes.

Liv coughed and walked towards the door. The doorman hurried over to open the door.

Bai Lu asked, "Am I going?"

Liv thought for a moment: "No need, I still have to do some work, you go to Yuanlong." ”

"That's good. Bai Lu waved goodbye and returned the same way.

Walking out of Wall Street and walking east for more than 40 minutes, there is an eight-story hotel in front of you. It is also an old building, but it looks elegant, there are signs hanging outside, and the third floor of this building is wrapped by Yuanlong, and more than 100 staff members live.

Bai Lu entered the door, went to the main station to ask, the waiter was a Chinese girl, could speak Chinese, took the initiative to take Bai Lu upstairs, led to the door of Yuanlong's room.

Seeing Bai Lu come back, Yuan Long's first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief, he was afraid that something temporary would happen to this guy again, and he couldn't take care of the crew.

The film starring Bai Lu and Yuan Long, the two leading actors are together, and the first thing is to call everyone together for a meeting.

The conference room is set up in a small conference room, which is stacked with a lot of props and costumes.

When everyone enters the house, they will first introduce Bai Lu.

There are more than 40 crew members from Beicheng, including martial artists, makeup artists, costume artists, and props...... The rest of the staff includes film company employees, photography, props, costumes, and many external cameramen and radio engineers, most of whom did not stay in the crew.

More than 100 people are the main team of this movie, except for Bai Lu and Yuan Long, there is no actor.

However, the interview has already been completed, and most of the actors have signed contracts, except for a few supporting roles, such as the role of Sun Jiaojiao, which has been retained.

Now, let's introduce you to the white road first. Mainly to introduce to foreigners, tell them that this guy who had an affair with Jennifer and a funny guy on the basketball court is their real boss.

Just from the word boss, all foreigners immediately remember the white road. Even if you don't remember it anymore, you have to remember this salaried person.

After everyone got to know each other, Yuanlong asked Bai Lu: "How many days can you stay?

"This is going to turn on?" Bai Lu was a little surprised.

Yuan Long glanced at him resentfully: "This was forced by you." ”

Bai Lu had no choice but to reply: "I can shoot." ”

Yuan Long said okay, assign tasks to the staff, and the first thing is to notify the actors to be in place, and filming will start at half past nine tomorrow morning. The second thing is to notify the assistant director. Prepare for the shoot. Then he took the storyboard and came to Bai Lu: "Shoot this one tomorrow." ”

The film "A Policeman". Bai Lu replaces Yuan Long to play the policeman, and Yuan Long can only play a middle-aged man who is nearly fifty years old and opens a restaurant in Chinatown. He used to be the coach of the national wushu team and was very capable of fighting. Under the persuasion of the apprentice. Immigrate to the United States.

in the film. Yuanlong had five apprentices, two of whom were collected domestically and three of whom were newly recruited. Among them are two foreigners.

The two apprentices in China are very capable of fighting, and when they first came to the United States, they were bullied, and then they rose up in anger to mix with the underworld. These two guys were once very arrogant, and then they were killed by several gangsters.

The two apprentices died in their respective homes, and it happened that Yuanlong went to the apprentice's house and was seen by the gangsters.

Bai Lu is an American policeman in the play, because the investigation of the case and Yuan Long and others are mixed together, so many stories happen. In order to increase the foreign elements of the film, most of the actors are foreigners. The main places where the story takes place are in the Brooklyn and Manhattan areas, and the footage of Chinatown is basically light except for two fights.

In order to film this film, Yuan Long hired a lawyer early, and the lawyer was responsible for communicating with the city hall to discuss filming matters.

Generally speaking, Lao Mei's movies are mostly studio shots, deducting portraits and putting them in the scene, and then the computer produces the movie clips.

Yuan Long didn't want to do this, he wanted to be like Fu Chuanqi when he filmed "Wandering Fish", abandon the computer system, completely use real scenes, and all the actions are performed by real people, and strive to shoot the most shocking effect.

To this end, Yuanlong signed a contract with the well-known IMAX company, and asked a special person to provide on-site guidance and 3D shooting throughout the process.

The average price is more than 80,000 US dollars for a RED high-definition digital camera, and if you buy 20 in one go, you must have a good time and a perfect shot. "Avatar" was filmed with this thing.

Today is the first time Bai Lu has come to the crew, and throughout the night, Yuanlong has been reporting to him, saying how much money was spent on the previous days, room and board fees, venue fees, labor costs, etc.

Bai Lu didn't want to listen to it at all, Yuan Long chattered for a while, felt bored, and threw the account book to him: "Look at it yourself." ”

"Don't look. Bai Lu said, "It's late, go to bed." ”

I got up very early the next day, and after breakfast, Yuanlong took people to the set early.

Yuan Long wants to play real, so there is no set at all, except for some indoor scenes that are filmed in Los Angeles, most of them are filmed on location. That's another big buck.

The first day of the scene was filmed at Yuanlong's restaurant, and the set was in Chinatown.

Because it is an introduction to the background, there is not much action, and it is done with four machines on the set, and at the end of this scene, the white road is played.

can't rent the venue all the time, and after Bai Lu finished filming, Yuan Long finished all the shots of this scene, and all the people who appeared in it were professional actors, and more than 60 people were used for extras on this day.

Filming continued until six o'clock in the evening, and after the American employees got off work, Yuan Long continued to shoot with his own team, trying to save time, that is, to save money.

However, filming is a thing, as long as the machine is turned on, it is impossible to save money.

In the film, the restaurant was smashed, and Yuanlong spent money to buy a bunch of tables and chairs, and smashed them according to the storyline. In addition, glass, lamps, walls, etc., can only be compensated at a high price, and then there is labor or something, which is too expensive.

In addition, the crew has Chinese and foreigners, communication is inconvenient, cooperation is not tacit, it takes more time, and several scenes in Chinatown have to be filmed for two days before ending.

Get these shots, starting from the third day, the crew will challenge the difficulty! (To be continued......)
