Now I want to be a good person - Chapter 648
In the parallel world, “Dallas buyer club” won six Oscar nominations and two performance awards. But before its release, the film was almost ignored and was not favored at all.
The film is produced by focus film company. The company’s two most famous films are Brokeback Mountain and lust, caution, both directed by Ang Lee. The company, formerly known as goodmachine, was founded in 1991 and started with Ang Lee’s first film push hands at a low cost of $490000.
“Dallas buyer’s Club” is not only dystocia, but also the crew is very poor. Due to the limited cost, the shooting cycle of the film had to be compressed in just 25 days, and the crew was very short of time, capital and equipment.
Craig Bowden found the focus film company, wanted to seek cooperation, and wanted Ang Lee to be a director. Ang Lee’s film is fantasy drifting of the youth school. He is not interested in it.
“Coincidentally,” Liang Kun came to visit Ang Lee and read the script, expressing his interest.
Bowden was flattered. It took him a lot of effort to visit Ang Lee. He was even more surprised to meet Liang Kun. Liang Kun is now one of the top commercial film directors in Hollywood. He can’t see it at all, and his film is obviously not a commercial film.
Ang Lee smiled and asked, “are you free to make this play? I heard you’re going to make another superhero film soon.”
“I’m free, because I can finish this feature film in a month. Select the actors, make them familiar with the script, get ready, and start shooting will be done soon. I like this story very much. There are similar things in China and have been on the news.”
As an actor, Liang Kun will not make low-cost films after his status is improved. But as a director, he has a high degree of freedom. It is normal for big directors to make films with low cost in order to win awards. Directors with artistic pursuit will get higher evaluation.
Those nominated for the best director Oscar generally don’t make big films, and the judges don’t like commercial films.
Liang Kun made this film in the United States and will write a similar script in China in the future. It makes sense to shoot it by Yingyi entertainment. In his current position, if he doesn’t shoot this film and directly comes to China with “I’m not a god of medicine”, there will be great controversy.
He is sure to get investment. The original cost is only $5.5 million, mainly the remuneration of several actors.
There are no special effects in this film. The shooting cycle is short. The only difficulty is the man’s weight.
Christian bell is inconvenient to play this role because he is too expensive. At present, he is at the peak of his career. Next year, the rise of the Dark Knight will be released, and his film pay is the highest of the crew. This year, bell participated in the Chinese film “Thirteen hairpins in Jinling”. The film remuneration is said to be 100 million yuan. This is all the friendship price. He took it only when he liked the script.
Matthew McConaughey is much cheaper. He hasn’t had a good work for many years. His last big box office movie was the ten day dating manual in 2003.
Matthew is a hard-working actor, parallel world. In order to play the terminally ill drug addict, he lost more than 40 kilograms of weight crazily, almost beyond recognition.
It is said that for four months, Matthew’s daily food was only two boiled proteins, a small piece of chicken, a small spoonful of cassava powder and two cups of diet coke. Later, he said in an interview: “hunger strike made me lose my * * and occasionally lose my emotional control, but that feeling of hunger purified my spirit and helped me finally enter Ron Woodruff’s world.”
Liang Kun can easily reduce his weight with a body adjuster, but this is a prototype role. It is impossible to change into a Chinese actor, otherwise he can hit the Oscar for best actor again.
Having agreed to make a feature film, Liang Kun began to work on the magic Woman movie again.
Because DC films make money and compete with marvel, Warner’s work efficiency has been improved. Soon they made preparations and began the cast’s casting.
The casting place was Los Angeles instead of New York. Liang Kun didn’t have to fly back in two cities. He attended the audition on time.
Wonder woman still chose Gail gado. In order to act, she decided to have children with her husband later. The sister born in 1985 got married very early and got married in 2008.
She has the red task of winning the role and becoming an international female star. Liang Kun took over. As long as she was chosen, she could finish it in the future.
When filming the man of steel, Jiaduo auditioned for flora. At that time, Liang Kun chose Cobi smodes. Jiaduo thought Liang Kun didn’t like her. Unexpectedly, the heroine of the audition succeeded.
The important reason why Liang Kun didn’t consider her at the beginning was that she had to play the magic nvxia. She played the villain role in advance, and the big role had to be replaced.
During the break, Luo Wen smiled and asked, “are you sure you want to choose her? Although she has a heroic spirit, her chest is too small, which is inconsistent with the cartoon image, and many fans may be dissatisfied.”
Liang Kun said solemnly, “that’s why I chose her. She has a small chest and looks more feminist. Moreover, the new armor of wonder woman can make up for this defect. She has big and long legs.”
Luo Wen smiled and nodded. Jiaduo’s legs are really long. In the cartoon, the height of wonder woman is 183cm, plus 175cm and special high-heeled boots.
Why not find a higher actress? Because the figure is not good enough. Adelini parrich, 180cm tall, auditioned for the role. Liang Kun didn’t like her. She was too strong.
She starred in the pilot episode of DC TV series wonder woman this year, and was cut off in one episode. At the beginning, nvxia chased an ordinary man and ran for more than a minute. She was hit by a car. Nvxia is so weak that she is doomed to be cut in the first two minutes.
Another great advantage of gado is that her pay is very low. She can do it for $300000 as a female host. Chris Evans was worth the same when he played the marvel play Captain America.
Liang Kun chose Ryan Gosling instead of Chris pine as the hero. Gosling’s acting skills are better than pine. He starred in half Nelson as early as 2006 and was nominated for an Oscar. In recent years, he has no box office works, and the film pay is lower than pine.
Gosling has an orange mission to get a role and wants to prove that he can stand the box office. Although his career is average now, he can impact a front-line male star in a few years.
His 2015 “big bear” has a good reputation, with five Oscar nominations. In 2016, city of love enjoyed a great reputation at the box office, with 14 Oscar nominations, and he won the golden globe.
Gosling plays Steve. The crew must make money. Pine is a low cost actor in Star Trek. But his performance is not good. In the film, his combat effectiveness is low and he can’t see any acting skills.
Liang Kun chose an American actress born in 1979 to play queen Hippolyte, named Brenna brown. This is a blonde with a height of 170cm. She can’t be popular. She hasn’t even played an important role in TV dramas. She has been playing tricks in American dramas for a long time.
As long as she gets the role of Hippolyte and mixes into DC blockbusters, she can complete a red task. Her request is so low that she basically has no chance to act in a film.
“Dr. Elizabeth pill” also has a lot of parts. Liang Kun chose Australian actress Melissa George, born in 1976, to have an orange task.
Melissa’s acting skills are excellent. She has acted in many thrillers and is known as the “Thriller Queen”. But she has not been popular. In 2009, she starred in the famous suspense thriller “horror cruise” with a good reputation and less than $1 million at the box office.
General rudendorff is starred by Danny Houston. He is an old actor with a height of 188CM. His film salary is not high and he has no task.
When the villain “ares” turned into Sir Patrick, he didn’t have many parts. Anyone can play it. Liang Kun chose a man with an orange task to play mark strong, 188CM TALL.
The casting director of DC likes mark very much. In the parallel world, he starred in the famous villain tal senesto in the green lantern. Unfortunately, the green lantern’s old enemy is only a supporting role in the film, and there is no sequel after shooting.
Apart from these people, there are no important roles, and there are few scenes. Even so, Liang Kun has orange tasks to do. Just choose a few people.
Liang Kun is so famous now that his films as a director have a high box office. Many ordinary actors who are not popular want to be familiar by participating in his films. They don’t want to be big stars. They can slightly improve their popularity and are satisfied with a stable job.
A few days later, the actors officially signed the contract, and Liang Kun completed two red tasks and five orange tasks.
The rewards for two red missions are life + 5 and advanced recovery potion + 1.
There are three magic potions in the orange task, and the actors attach great importance to their own image. An intermediate healing potion and a permanent prop.
The red mission hasn’t produced permanent props for a long time, and the orange mission has produced two recently. The effect of body shaping clothes is good. Now there is another “face changing master”.
The role of this prop is to change appearance, not as simple as Liang Kun wearing a wig and a fake beard. A mask is connected to the system. Liang Kun can set the face and change it into that way to ensure that no one can recognize it.
The figure adjuster is to adjust his figure. This is like a face pinching game. Both men and women can do it. After using the mask, he completely covered his skin. There was a small button on his right ear to take off the mask.
This thing looks like the electronic mask worn by the black widow in Captain America 2. Now Liang Kun has a black technology mask in his hand, which can also play a role together with his characteristics. He wears a mask to change his face without revealing his true face, and without revealing his true face, he will increase his mysterious charm.
If Liang Kun wants to, he can change his handsome face to play the ELF KING, but he doesn’t intend to act with a mask. It’s not his face. It’s meaningless to play well. And he is not sure whether he can freely make an expression after using the mask. Maybe his appearance can change and it will be a “facial paralysis”.
The biggest function of this prop is that he can go to the street freely at ordinary times. His face will not be recognized by fans.
He is not the only one who can use the mask. If his girlfriend wants to change her face, she can try it
