NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 47
Chapter 47:
Filming is different from when it is shown.
It’s never said that according to the plot, you go first, you shoot first.
Instead, it is arranged according to the actual situation of the plot and the preparation work.
The seaside town that appeared at the beginning of the plot, because the construction has just begun, the scene naturally has to be shot at the end.
By the same token, the final scene in the film, Barbossa’s Cave of Hiding Treasures, also had to wait for Warners to complete it.
Therefore, what Kevin chose to shoot was actually part of the scenes at sea. Of course, only part of the scenes were actually shot, and some of them had to be shot in the studio.
At the same time, even these actual scenes have to undergo post-processing before they are officially completed.
As for the Black Pearl, it is a hull made in a hurry, and it is completely dependent on the consignment of the big ship to be able to sail on the sea.
Compared to building the real Black Pearl, this method will undoubtedly save a lot of money.
During this process, the scenes of Pirates of the Caribbean were filmed non-stop.
….
Time came to mid-February 1994. Pirates of the Caribbean had been filming in the Caribbean waters for nearly half a month. Finally, all the scenes here were filmed.
Looking at the tired crowd, Kevin raised the loudspeaker in his hand and said loudly:
“Everyone, starting from today, we will go back to New York, take a three-day break, and three days later, we will gather at the Warners studio, and everyone can find Director Zach at that time.”
“Oh hoo hoo hoo!”
“Director Kevin, you are the best!”
Dozens of people suddenly made a loud noise, applauding Kevin’s words.
Although Kevin is indeed a tyrant on the set, scolding is a common thing when filming, but he usually focuses on the matter and does not make any personal attacks, just pointing out the mistakes of others.
Unless this mistake occurs again and again, otherwise, Kevin will not make too much action.
At the same time, in view of sufficient funds, Kevin did not treat these actors and behind-the-scenes staff badly in terms of logistics. Everyone tasted various seafood dinners one by one, and the stay was quite good.
Coupled with sufficient wages, under this premise, Kevin still received praise from the staff.
In such laughter, the group embarked on the road back to New York.
The biggest reason why Kevin is so rushed is actually that he received a message from Warner to inform him, that is, his film Escape from the Dead Town successfully won the Oscar nomination for the Best Film Award and Nominated for Best Screenplay.
When Kevin was busy with his own affairs at hand, Warner Bros. did not stop, during the Oscar warm-up session during the release of Mission Impossible.
After investing millions of public relations expenses, the DVDs of Escape from the Dead Town were given to the judges one by one. At the same time, next to the DVD, a batch of valuable gifts was given according to the judges’ hobbies.
Sending money directly is, of course, an insult to the sanctity of the Oscar, which will make many judges reject it, and even have a rebellious mentality, so they will vote for other movies.
But when it comes to gifts, it’s different.
These are all unspoken rules that have gradually formed since the founding of the Oscars. As for the confidentiality principle of the Oscar judges?
In the eyes of a film company of Warner’s level, it’s just a joke.
They know the addresses and real identities of 99% of the Oscar judges. This is the background of the big film companies.
….
Back in New York, Kevin didn’t even have time to go home, he came to Warner Bros.
Robinov greeted him with a smile on his face, looked around, and after making sure it was safe, he said in a low voice:
“Kevin, there is a high probability that you will win the Best Screenplay Award for escaping from Breakthrough Town, congratulations!”
Kevin also smiled and said:
“Thanks to the follow-up PR from Warner Bros., this award is obtained, but unfortunately it is not the best picture or the best director award.”
Having said that, Kevin also knows that at a time when the Black Lives Matter movement is not yet developed enough, the anti-war art film Escape from the Dead Town to defeat Schindler’s List is a film that awakens and reflects the tragic experience of the Jewish people at the same time. There is no possibility in Hollywood, a circle dominated by Jewish capital.
The 1994 Oscar, the biggest winner, was exactly Spielberg’s Schindler’s list, the target of Kevin’s pursuit.
As for escaping from Dead Town, under Warner’s power, he finally ate a small piece of Oscar’s cake.
….
Chapter 76
After briefly understanding the Oscar process with Warner, Kevin returned home.
There is still one day before the Oscars are announced, and Kevin is also planning to have a good rest at home for a day. After participating in the Oscars the day after tomorrow, he will have another day off the day after tomorrow.
In order to recuperate the spirit of the turbulent sea and continue the shooting of Pirates of the Caribbean.
…
Kevin’s three women know each other’s existence, and they are also very clear about Kevin’s thoughts.
However, they also have a trace of confidence that they can change Kevin’s mind. It is for this reason that they do not compete with each other, but show their abilities and try to become Kevin’s favorite.
Today was the only time they all met together.
They came to Kevin’s villa tacitly and held a birthday party for Kevin.
For Kevin’s character, they are somewhat clear that Kevin doesn’t actually like to deal with too many strangers.
In the past, Kevin had never hosted a birthday party.
The three of them also found someone to find out Kevin’s birthday and came to hold a birthday party for him. They thought they were the only ones doing this.
Unexpectedly, all three of them thought so, so they simply held a birthday party for Kevin.
Kevin left Warner and returned to his home. As soon as he entered his villa, he saw a birthday party organized by three women for him.
Although Kevin doesn’t like birthdays very much in his past or present life.
But he was very happy that these women got together to celebrate his birthday. Although he couldn’t give them the home they wanted, other than that, whether it was status, fame, or money, Kevin was very happy. Is very generous.
Hayek won the two works of Chainsaw and Pirates of the Caribbean, and his future in Hollywood does not need him to worry about it for the time being.
Jolie also won Get Out, which even won an Academy Award for Best Screenplay, which has many benefits for her future development.
It’s Milla Jovovich, who has a higher start than Hayek and Julie.
Kevin hasn’t figured out what works to arrange for her.
Resident Evil works, it is not impossible, but now is not the time, the current Hollywood is not very interested in movies based on Japanese works.
Now even if it is filmed, the probability of hitting the street is very high.
More importantly, Kevin wasn’t very interested in the movie.
Of course, he could be a producer, wait a few more years for Zack Snyder to hone in, and let him be a Resident Evil director.
After all, in the future, Zach is also famous for directing Dawn of the Living Dead.
It is also a zombie movie, and Kevin still trusts Zack Snyder’s ability.
The only problem is that it’s been too long, and he has already accepted the gift in the middle, which is not suitable, so he still has to find a movie to compensate her with a heroine.
These thoughts passed for a moment, and the next moment, Kevin made a mess with them, and had one of the most people’s birthdays since he came to now.
………,
The warm winter sun shines on Kevin’s face from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and Kevin wakes up from his daze.
“Uh~~~~~~~”
Kevin exposed his shirtless upper body from the duvet, stretched his waist, and a violent soreness came from his waist, instantly causing him to collapse onto the bed again.
He couldn’t remember the memory of yesterday very clearly. He only remembered that he drank a lot of wine that he snuck from Cage.
After drinking, the stamina is really enough.
The only remaining impression of him is that he beat three enemies with one enemy and three enemies…
What?
Why is the water flowing, you ask?
Kevin didn’t know how to explain it. In short, adults don’t have to be so clear about it, to prevent children from learning badly.
After resting in bed for a long time, Kevin stewed himself some old ginseng from Changbai Mountain, which was purchased from Chinatown.
Finally regained a little bit of vitality.
…
After recovering his body, Kevin just remembered his business. Tomorrow is Oscar night, and he still lacks a female companion.
This is not good. Whether it is inviting Hayek or Julie, it will make the other person jealous.
In addition to being unwilling to get married, Kevin is unwilling to hurt any woman, and the prodigal son in love is him.
Touching the phone, Kevin first called Julie:
“Baby, Get Out is nominated for Best Film and Best Screenplay. Would you like to walk the red carpet with me?”
Julie on the other end of the phone said lightly:
“Go with Hayek, I can go by myself tomorrow, and I have to prepare an event dress today!”
As a woman, sometimes being unruly and willful is fun, and sometimes it is just plain annoying.
Julie is still very clear about this point. She is the heroine who escaped from Breakthrough Town, and she is already qualified to walk the Oscar red carpet, so there is no need to occupy an additional spot.
Let Kevin take Shanghai Jacques for a walk to show her generosity.
Kevin was overjoyed and quickly said:
“Okay, baby, see you tomorrow night!”
After that, he hung up the phone and called Hayek again.
At this time, Hayek was resting at her home. Since she played Chainsaw, she has filmed a lot of scenes and earned millions of dollars.
The money was used by her to buy a house in the ordinary residential area of Beverly Hills. In short, it actually means that she and Kevin live not far away.
Hearing the phone ringing, Hayek took the call, and heard Kevin’s voice on the other end of the phone:
“Hayak, Oscar tomorrow, I’m still missing a female companion…”
“Okay, I’ll come tomorrow!”
Hayek immediately smiled and readily agreed.
Hollywood stars have a soft spot for walking the Oscars red carpet, but there are too many places for the Oscars red carpet, and not everyone can go.
Chapter 77 The Boring Oscar
She was naturally very enthusiastic about being able to get an invitation from Kevin. After hanging up Kevin’s call, Hayek immediately went to major brands to choose a suitable dress.
After arranging these things, Kevin came to Cage’s house again for dinner, and took away a few bottles of Cage’s good wine before returning to his home.
————————————-
The rest time of the day passed quickly, and the time soon arrived in the afternoon of the next day.
The Oscars start at 5:30, and the time for the red carpet is even earlier, starting at 4 o’clock.
Kevin called the driver early, and after receiving Hayek, he turned around to pick up Julie, and then brought the two to Hollywood together.
…
“Hanks! Hanks!”
“…”
Just stepping on the red carpet, Kevin heard the fans on both sides shouting the name of the current Hollywood superstar, Tom Hanks.
Then several pairs of celebrities who knew or didn’t know Kevin walked the red carpet.
Immediately afterwards, Kevin and Hayek officially walked the red carpet.
And Kevin as a director is a behind-the-scenes staff member, his reputation is mainly concentrated in the industry, and the public does not know much about it.
Hayek was frightened by the chainsaw, and the following films, more or less familiar in front of the audience, walked on the red carpet, dressed in a **** dress, which really surprised many audiences.
At the same time, she was even more curious as to who the man walking on the red carpet with her was, and said words of envy, jealousy and hatred.
Following Hayek’s side, Kevin walked slowly, allowing Hayek to enjoy the Oscar red carpet more, so he dawdled for nearly 20 minutes, after Kevin’s patience was completely worn out.
