Director: The special effects are too expensive, so I had to make real shots

Chapter 259 How to make audiences around the world fall in love with little spiders?
Who would have thought that at first Xu Nuo was worried that the actor playing Spider-Man would be under tremendous pressure when faced with difficult action performances.

It is even difficult to accept the real-time performance of such difficult movements.

But for this guy Li Cheng, I have to say that Xu Nuo really made the right choice.

Not to mention that this guy's acting skills have improved obviously to the naked eye during the months before and during the shooting. Just because of his love for the role of Spider-Man, he has reached a height that other people can't match.

In addition, Li Cheng accepted Spider-Man's difficult action real shots too quickly, and even after the actual real shots, he has fallen in love with this exciting feeling.

In his words, it is adrenaline, as if he has opened the door to a new world.

For this, Xu Nuo was very pleased.

Sure enough, I didn't choose the wrong person.

So after starting the third phase of filming for "Spider-Man", Xu Nuo raised his standards for the various difficult Spider-Man action shots he wanted to a higher level.

In this way, not only can my "Spider-Man" have better shots and pictures, but also allow Li Cheng also to realize his addictive idea of ​​immersive performance.

in the next half month.

Li Cheng put on the spider suit, turned into a little spider, and jumped and shuttled among the high-rise buildings in Yuzhou City. For him, this seemed to be a kind of enjoyment.

I can't wait for Director Xu to take more shots and pictures like this, because Li Cheng knows very well that after the filming of "Spider-Man" is over, if he wants to experience this feeling again, he has to wait until the second "Spider-Man" "Xia".

After all, director Xu has to dispatch a lot of resources every time he shoots, including AI resources, computing power resources, steel suit resources, and the capital cost of clearing and controlling the scene during each shooting, and resource support from the city government building. After zero and zero, the cost is not generally high.

If he hadn't been filming a movie, it would have been impossible for Director Xu to transform himself into Spider-Man like he did during filming.

Today, Xu Nuo is filming some fighting and stunt scenes between the villain Dr. Lizard and Spider-Man on the set.

Because of Dr. Lizard's shape, Xu Nuo couldn't really create a lizardman in reality, so this is an unrealizable part. According to the rules of the system, it is allowed to use post-production special effects at that time.

In this way, the battle with Dr. Lizard became a performance by Li Cheng, the Spider-Man alone.

Such a superficial situation is not too difficult for a reasonably capable actor. After all, there is no real thing, or performing against green screen props is the basic skill of an actor.

Of course, there have been many traffic stars in China before, whose acting skills are really touching. No matter what they are performing against, the performance will have the same effect.

Fortunately, this kid Li Cheng is a very talented student majoring in acting at the Haicheng Film Academy. No wonder the professors and teachers of the film academy spoke highly of him when he was asked about this guy by the Haicheng Film Academy. , but because he hadn't been spotted by other directors at that time, he didn't have film and television resources.

Xu Nuo was the first to follow Li Cheng.

Regarding the scene between the Spider-Man played by Li Cheng and the villain Dr. Lizard in this movie, Xu Nuo also made some localized adaptations appropriately compared with the original "The Amazing Spider-Man".

First of all, Spider-Man has now become the sunshine boy in our country, so what about the villain?

Also set as Chinese?

No, no!
In Xu Nuo's movies, everyone already knows that the villains are basically American gringos.

This time is no exception.

Since it is an American gringo, then the name can be directly followed by Connors, and its character setting can be made more reasonable, that is, it is more suitable for the adaptation of Xu Nuo's version of "Spider-Man".

For example, he is a professor at an American university invited by a well-known domestic biotechnology company, and he has connections with S.H.I.E.L.D. and the little spider's parents, which can also be properly adapted and retained.

After all, after the two movie universes of "Hulk" and "Thor", the people recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D. in Xu Nuo's movie universe are not just Chinese.

For example, the actor who played the Hulk and the background set during the filming were actors from American Hollywood.

And Thor eventually adopted Norse mythology.

These settings may have been in the past, and some domestic audiences who love to dig into the horns will raise the bar, saying that our own domestic film universe worldview, why use gringos?

However, as the relationship between China and the United States has become closer in the past two years, the acceptance of using gringo actors is naturally getting higher and higher.

Now due to the success of the Hollywood actor Felut Bauer who played the Hulk, and the resurgence of a large number of Hollywood actors used in Xu Nuo's "Oppenheimer", many Hollywood actors have A longing heart to go to Huaguo to make a movie.

Of course, the ones who want to participate in it are naturally Director Xu's films, or blockbuster films created by Real Media under Director Xu.

As for other domestic film and television companies or directors, they basically cannot be compared.

This time, Xu Nuo chose a Hollywood actor for Dr. Lizard in his "Spider-Man", which is also a little-known actor with acting skills.

His name is Philly Michael.

Xu Nuo really likes to find actors who are not too well-known in Hollywood but have good acting skills. Of course, the premise is that the role played in his own movie is a villain.

But if it's like "Oppenheimer", you can't use Hollywood actors who are not too famous. Instead, you have to do the opposite, and you need to use Hollywood actors.

Like the American actor that Xu Nuo used to play the iron villain when he was filming "Iron Man", after "Iron Man" was released, due to the global popularity of "Iron Man", even if he only played a villain role, but also became famous, and his social status has also increased a lot.

The most important thing is that the actor's film resources in Hollywood have become richer since then.

That's why many actors in Hollywood wish they could act in Xu Nuo's movies, because every movie Xu Nuo makes is basically a blockbuster, nothing more than the difference between a big hit and a big hit. As an actor, who wouldn't want to make a movie under such a director?

But it is a pity that there are not many opportunities for gringo actors to participate in Xu Nuo's movies, and Xu Nuo still supports and trains his own domestic actors.

When foreign actors need to be used, they will go to Hollywood without color.

This time it was Philip Michael who was found to play the role of Connors in "Spider-Man", that is, Dr. Lizard!
Xu Nuo spent another whole morning today to finish shooting some difficult shots of Li Cheng.

"Kah, good, everyone, take a break, and then have lunch later."

After Xu Nuo confirmed that he was very satisfied with the shot, he checked the time, then picked up the loudspeaker and spoke to the crew.

"Xuanfan, has today's box lunch been delivered?"

"What kind of box lunch, go to the company's cafeteria downstairs to eat."

"That's right, this is the real group building!"

Some staff members of the film crew have not yet realized it, because as long as the scene is filmed in the real group building, then cooking is much more convenient. There is an internal company cafeteria in the real group building, so as long as it is in the real group building On the day of filming in the building, you can go directly to the canteen of the real group to cook.

And if it is shot in other high-rise buildings, then for the sake of work efficiency, you can only eat the boxed lunch prepared by the crew.

Although Xu Nuo's film crew has always maintained the standard of high-quality lunch boxes, box lunches are still box lunches after all. Compared with the company cafeteria in the real group building, it is still more than 01:30 behind.

Real Group is not only at the forefront of the country in terms of work system, but even the company's internal canteen is among the top in the country.

Some up owners have done evaluations in this area.

Compared with other big factories like Penguin and Ali, compared with the canteens of Real Group, they are beaten by Real Group in terms of cost performance, taste, richness and other aspects.

This can't help but make netizens just take a look at the company cafeteria of the Real Group, and can't help but want to go to work hard at the Real Group.

"Boss, tea."

When Wen Ruohan saw that the boss had finished shooting all morning, he immediately came over and handed over the pink thermos in his hand.

"How did it change?"

Xu Nuo looked at the pink thermos cup handed over by his assistant Wen Ruohan, and was taken aback for a moment.

"The boss's thermos cup was left at the Nanshan Smart Villa last time and he forgot to bring it over, so I used my spare cup to make tea for the boss, hehehehe."

Wen Ruohan scratched his little head and explained.

"I am a macho"

Before Xu Nuo finished speaking, that familiar voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

"A new movie project task?"

Xu Nuo suddenly had a thought and pulled out his system interface.

Sure enough, at this moment, Xu Nuo's new mission was finally triggered - [announcement of the movie "Spider-Man"]!
It is very common, and it is also a small film task that every film project must have, that is, the task content that needs to be completed in the announcement stage.

"Do you want at least [-] million people around the world to look forward to "Spider-Man"?"

Xu Nuo took a look at the mission goal of this [Announcement], to make at least [-] million viewers around the world look forward to the release of "Spider-Man".

It's hard to say whether Xu Nuo can complete this amount smoothly, after all, although Xu Nuo's previous works have very good data in terms of movie box office and number of moviegoers.

But this time the mission goal was directly pulled to [-] million people!
This is not a simple number target!
In addition, "Spider-Man" is a work of a new movie universe, unlike "Iron Man", which already has a huge fan base.

Previously, Xu Nuo's "Spider-Man" hadn't made any large-scale announcements. The information that audiences around the world could know was that Xu Nuo's "Spider-Man" had started filming. They knew that Xu Nuo's "Spider-Man" A work of the movie universe, and some enthusiasm about the movie "Spider-Man" caused by the last fire rescue incident.

In addition, Xu Nuo has always been obsessed with filming, and has not done too much publicity. He just wants to save a wave of big ones and complete the film task by the way.

Unexpectedly, this movie task was quite difficult. To make [-] million people look forward to the movie "Spider-Man", how much publicity is needed?
And when "Spider-Man" is released in the future, [-] million people are already looking forward to it. How high will the box office target be then?
Xu Nuo didn't dare to think about it!

It seems that the system means that it wants to make "Spider-Man" into a movie and character IP that is popular all over the world like "Iron Man".

Xu Nuo can understand, because in his previous life on earth, Spider-Man was not less popular than Iron Man. Even before "Iron Man" was not a big success, Spider-Man has always been the most popular among superheroes. Brother Yi, okay.

Then the problem is coming.

Before the movie is released, can I complete the mission that [-] million people are looking forward to?
Is it also relying on comics?

Obviously this is unrealistic, because the movie universe comics serialized by Xu Nuo on his own AI entertainment platform are not as popular as the Marvel comics on Earth in his previous life.

After all, it was a late start, and with the movie coming out first, Zhuyu was already ahead.

"Boss, what are you thinking?"

The assistant Wen Ruohan in front of him asked curiously when he saw that the boss seemed to be thinking about something in a daze.

"It's nothing, I'm wondering if it's time to start announcing our "Spider-Man" filming now."

Xu Nuo replied to assistant Wen Ruohan's doubts.

"Yeah, "Spider-Man" hasn't had a large-scale publicity yet, and it's already filming in the middle and late stages of the third phase. Counting the post-production cycle, I don't think it will be too long before the release. ? It’s time to make a good announcement.”

Wen Ruohan nodded, agreeing with what the boss said about starting the announcement of "Spider-Man", and at the same time gave the boss a suggestion: "Boss, why don't you treat your Iron Man as a character when the announcement is made?" Do you want to promote it? Drive the popularity of Spider-Man."

Hearing this, Xu Nuo suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Assistant Wen Ruohan's idea of ​​suggestion seems to have indeed opened the door in a direction for Xu Nuo.

His own Iron Man is extremely popular all over the world. If he included his role as Iron Man in the promotion of "Spider-Man", then the popularity would naturally soar.

This is called, Bringing the New with the Old in Movie Characters!
"Seems like a good idea. No, no, no, we can't do that while promoting it."

Xu Nuo suddenly realized something, and hastily rejected assistant Wen Ruohan's proposal for publicity.

"Ah? Can't I use Iron Man to promote it? But during the filming, didn't you, boss, have all of them on board? There are so many unmanned steel suits. This can bring a lot of popularity to the little spider."

Wen Ruohan frowned and asked with a puzzled expression.
