Chapter 791 This is the beginning
Boss Jia has a great reputation and directly invited these seven people. Except for Hu Jun and Liu Ye who are newcomers, the other five are all famous Chinese film and television masters.
After the seven arrived, the deputy director also came forward and once again told them the plot in detail.
Although Boss Jia had already talked about the plot with these big guys in advance on the phone, after really seeing the script, these big guys were still a little dissatisfied.
They thought they came here to participate in Hollywood blockbusters. Even if they were not starring, their status in the circle would at least have a co-star or something like that.
But after they really opened the script, they realized that they came here to be a supporting actor, and all the shots may be less than two or three minutes together, which inevitably disappointed these big shots. This was really far from what they had imagined before.
But even if they are dissatisfied, these big guys dare not really disgrace Boss Jia. They are a bit arrogant and look down on nouveau riche. People in Hong Kong and Hong Kong clearly understand that rich people are super gods and the king of the world. Jia Yapeng, the richest man in China who is said to have huge wealth of billions of dollars, must not be offended.
Not to mention that Daqian Entertainment is becoming more and more awesome now. Although there are no actual film and television works, it has mastered thousands of copyrights and basically controlled the entire Fusang and domestic film and television markets. All VCD publishing and distribution depends on the face of Daqian Entertainment.
Otherwise, with just one order, Daqian Entertainment will be able to completely ban the VCD sales of a certain film and television work in China and Fusang. This energy is also very terrifying.
Not to mention that they only now know that Daqian Entertainment is working with Hollywood giants, which is something that all Hong Kong and Hong Kong film and television companies cannot compare with. If Boss Jia is happy today, when Boss Jia creates another Hollywood blockbuster in the future, it may give them more opportunities to show their faces.
Besides, I’ve come here, and if I leave now, I really can’t get anything. Now I can show my face in Hollywood blockbusters!
So even though they were a little dissatisfied, these big guys still didn't agree to the shooting.
But when they really started filming, they were surprised to find that Boss Jia was actually playing the role of a boiler worker with them, shirtless and barely playing the role of a boiler worker, they really had nothing to say.
The richest man in China made a film with them. If you talk about this, it would be a lifetime of glory and gimmicks. What else can they care about?
The entire filming process went very smoothly. Among the seven actors, 5 were extremely professional and could be called actors of the best actor level. The other two Hu Jun and Liu Ye, although they were not famous, were at least standard academics, and the plot only lasted for about ten seconds. When they escaped from the bottom of the cabin to the deck, the two Chinese workers who died were them, so their plot was quickly completed. The rest were Boss Jia and the other five actors, who helped the father, daughter and children on the deck together, and finally rowed to save themselves.
These actors were originally a little worried that Boss Jia would drag them down during the filming, but they did not expect that Boss Jia would act like a decent role and also knew a lot of professional knowledge. Although his acting skills still seemed very immature, he had an unusual momentum and the shooting effect was not bad.
Boss Jia is also very satisfied with his cooperation with these actors. Everyone is Chinese and can communicate directly in Chinese during the filming. Everyone has the blood of Chinese on them. They can all experience the great deeds and emotions of their ancestors who have suffered thousands of hardships in foreign countries, but they are still full of passion, fearless of destiny, and brave to fight. Everyone's emotional performance is something that those damn, sarcastic banana people cannot compare to.
"Mr. Jia!" That evening, after the shooting, Brother Long suddenly found Boss Jia, looking like he wanted to speak but stopped.
"What do you have to say, Brother Long can say it!" Boss Jia smiled.
"Then I'll say it, Mr. Jia, I don't understand what you are thinking!" Long Geran said with a lot of resentment in his stomach, looking at our boss Jia.
"I know what you mean!" Boss Jia smiled. "You think I'm a little bit too much. In order to run a supporting role for only a few minutes, I found all the big names in the entire Chinese film and television industry. It's a bit too shameful for the Chinese film industry, right?"
"..." Brother Long didn't say anything, but obviously made a default.
"Actually, when I called you, I was a little hesitant. I also thought that my idea was to make a big deal out of the matter. I would give these foreigners a face and let the absolute bigwigs in the Chinese film circle play a supporting role. This is almost like sending one's body to the feet of foreigners, which will greatly destroy the face of our Chinese films!" Boss Jia said lightly.
"Actually, if it were other movies, I would never do such a thing, but this movie is different. This movie is "Titanic", a movie destined to appear in the global box office championship in the future. It can be said to be the most successful film in commercial and cultural aspects of the 20th century. This is a movie that will set off a trend all over the world. This movie must have the figure of us Chinese. Even if it is only a dozen seconds, I need us Chinese to give the most perfect impression of the world, because this movie can have more than hundreds of Hollywood blockbusters on the world. I need the most outstanding actors to give the most perfect cultural output to the world!"
"Cultural output?" Brother Long was stunned when he heard Boss Jia's words. This was the first time he had heard this word.
"No, cultural output!" Boss Jia smiled and said, "The best cultural output tool in the world is movies. This "Titanic" is the beginning of the cultural output of China. In the next twenty years, I will use movies to let the world know about a brand new China, and this is when everything begins!"
As a result, it took less than two days to shoot all the pictures and shots of Chinese workers. Boss Jia then used a private plane to send these big shots back to Hong Kong and the country.
When these seven people returned home, they felt as if they had a dream, which was a bit unusual. Who could imagine that in less than three days, they flew from China to Hawaii, and the richest man in China, and internationally renowned directors to complete the filming of Hollywood blockbusters, and then returned home instantly. All of this was like a dream, and it was a bit unrealistic, as if it had never happened.
These actors came and left in a hurry, but Boss Jia stayed. There were only 22 hours left before the planned global live broadcast of Titanic sinking. Boss Jia still had to check the preparation progress of the entire work with Director Cameron, as well as the entire crew and live broadcast team.
"By the way, Director Cameron, how long do you plan to edit the Chinese plot this time?" After checking the live broadcast work, Boss Jia, who was already a little tired, suddenly asked Director Cameron.
"Mr. Jia, let me tell you the truth. Although we have been filming the material for three hours, after editing, we may only have more than 20 seconds of plot presentation in the movie!"
"After all, I was shooting a group movie, and there would be hundreds of ordinary people like Chinese survivors. They would all get the attention of the camera, thus reflecting the tragic scenes of the Titanic sinking in all aspects. So I can't give you Chinese survivors too much time, but I promise that even if there are only 20 seconds, I will still present the heroic deeds of you Chinese."
"20 seconds are too few. I hope there will be at least about 5 minutes of footage to withdraw this plot!" Boss Jia said lightly.
"5 minutes! Absolutely not. This time is too long, which will disrupt my overall editing plan! The expected overall movie playback time has reached 194 minutes, nearly three hours, I really don't have any extra five minutes for you!" Cameron immediately shook his head and refused.
"Hehe, Director Cameron, let's change the direction and think about it. Since it has reached 194 minutes, what's the harm in adding five minutes to 199 minutes? This has no impact on the audience!" Boss Jia smiled.
"But 194 minutes has made the producers very dissatisfied. They said it is difficult for the theater to accept such a time, and now it has increased to 199 minutes, then..."
"Don't worry, I'm the producer. I'll talk to you about time. I'll ensure there's no problem in 199 minutes!" Boss Jia said lightly, and then he saw director Cameron still hesitant.
Boss Jia couldn't help but smile and said, "Let's do this, I don't ask what movie it is. I will definitely invest all my money to support your next movie. Even if you plan to play 3dmax, I will support you with all my money. Even if I have all my investments, I will make it alone, how about it?"
"3dmax!" Director Cameron's eyes lit up when he heard it, and then he nodded involuntarily and said, "Okay, I'll find a way to add these five minutes!"
In this way, the 194-minute epic movie "Titanic" in history has five minutes of extra Chinese shots, turning it into a 199-minute movie.
Boss Jia once again quietly changed history.
Chapter completed!
