Chapter 64 Chapter 65. Start shooting training

On the plane, Eric was resting with his eyes closed.

Last night, leaving Chloë Sevigny slumped on the floor with her eyes rolled up, Eric went to the coffee shop to keep his date.

Now he has a contract in his bag, and "Whale Rider" has nothing to do with Niki Caro anymore.

After signing the contract, the two tried the depth and size in the bathroom of the coffee shop, and then walked out with a strange look from the waiter.

In this circle, such things happen too often. After all, the nature of the work is so obvious that a special term has been given to it - crew couple.

Since we often go out to shoot movies, if it is in a remote area with inconvenient transportation, a group of people will be locked up for several months.

We are all adults and live in this materialistic circle. It's okay for a few days, but after a long time it is inevitable to vent our desires.

Time doesn't allow for finding a significant other or going home, and it's not safe to order takeout, so what to do? Naturally, they hook up with the same crew.

The experienced ones will separate after the filming, and the temporary relationship will end naturally. No one will mention this matter. If they meet again in the future and both are interested, it is not a bad idea to rekindle the old relationship.

Those who are inexperienced or easily emotional will find themselves in a situation where they have a romance every time they shoot a movie, and they often use the excuse that they can't get out of the role.

But there are very few actors who are really too immersed in their roles. Most of them are just driven by hormones and sperm.

This is the case with Eric and Nikki Carlo. Eric is handsome, and Nikki Carlo is just entering mature age and is also a charming woman.

The woman takes the initiative to ask, and the man takes the opportunity to enter. It is unclear whether there will be further cooperation in the future. It is just a fleeting romance, and then they forget each other.

As for Chloë Sevigny, she served me wholeheartedly for several days. There happened to be a female hacker who partnered with James Bond in "Transformers", so I just gave her the role as a cameo.

When there is a new project, I will give her a suitable role.

However, the Sundance Film Festival has not yet ended, and Chloë Sevigny has to participate in publicity, so she will not be able to join the crew for a few days.

Also, Hasbro's stock price rose a bit today, which can be considered a blessing in disguise.

The release of the Bumblebee video has indeed had a significant impact. Now fans' expectations for the movie have been raised several levels, and they also believe that MGM is indeed capable of making a good Transformers.

A large number of fans also left messages on MGM's official website, requesting that other Transformers videos continue to be released.

Eric took the opportunity to give an order to announce a new product every two weeks until the movie was released. This method of hyping up the popularity is rare nowadays.

The third week box office of "Saw" has also been released, with a normal drop of 47% to close at 21.2 million US dollars. The North American box office has accumulated 96.7 million US dollars. Analysts predict that the final box office in North America will reach about 120 million US dollars.

At the same time, the film was also released in regions other than several Asian countries, and its high reputation brought high box office. As of now, the cumulative overseas box office has reached 54.5 million US dollars, and the global cumulative box office has reached 150 million US dollars.

According to analysts' predictions, the final global box office is expected to be 220 million US dollars, which is a very impressive result for an R-rated horror film.

The Transformers set, or more precisely the training ground.

Squeak. Squeak A pickup truck was running recklessly on the road. Suddenly, a curve appeared in front of it, and the pickup truck drifted and spun around the curve.

Bang! The car failed to drift and crashed into the guardrail wrapped with a crash pad, and immediately rolled over.

Seeing this, a group of people immediately ran over. Assistant director Patty Jenkins hurriedly dispatched rescue operations. Soon the vehicle was righted and Gal Gadot climbed out of the driver's seat covered in dust.

"Gadot, are you okay?" Patty Jenkins asked hurriedly.

“Ahem.”

After coughing a few times, Gal Gadot forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. Sorry for the failure. Let's try again."

Patty Jenkins looked at her hand: "No, you are injured, check it first!"

After the crew doctor checked it out, fortunately it was not serious, just a scratch, and the seat belt did play a big role.

At this time, the crowd parted and Eric walked in: "Gadot, you take care of your wound first and rest for a while."

"Eric, when did you come?" Gal Gadot's eyes lit up.

"I just arrived. I didn't expect to see such a big scene right away. It seems like everyone has been training very hard."

Patty Jenkins suggested: "Gadot's scene is too dangerous. It is a bit difficult to perform difficult vehicle movements in a short time. Why not use a stunt double?"

Before Eric could say anything, Gal Gadot quickly refused: "No, it's just driving, I can do it, believe me!"

This is a film crew, everyone is watching. Others are training hard, but Gal Gadot doesn't want to be treated specially. It's something that can obviously be done through training, but you use a stunt double. What do people think of you?

And although she looks carefree and not particular about details, she has a strong character inside and doesn't want others to gossip about Eric.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Eric naturally meant the same thing. A good relationship does not mean a green light. On the contrary, the standards should be stricter.

"Patty, this scene is related to the final battle. It is the place that best reflects the heroine's character and her abilities. It must be filmed live, and no doubles can be used!"

The boss has spoken, and everyone else must obey. All they can do is increase the intensity of training.

Upon hearing the news of the big boss's arrival, other crew members also came to meet him.

Assistant director Neil Blomkamp came over with a man in military uniform. The man looked to be in his forties, tall and strong, with a tough temperament, completely different from the other crew members.

Eric was not familiar with military ranks, but looking at the man's epaulettes with many patterns, he knew it was not little Karami.

"Director, this is Lieutenant Colonel Freeman. The military has appointed him as our military advisor."

Eric took the initiative to reach out and shake the other person's hand, only to find that the skin was very rough, even like he was holding tree bark.

"Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Freeman, welcome to the Transformers crew."

Freeman smiled and said, "Hello Mr. Eric, I have received an order to assist you in completing the filming of the movie."

"During this period, if you need the military's cooperation, please let me know in advance and I will make the arrangements."

"Thank you in advance. By the way, there are several actors in the crew who need basic military training, at least to make them look like soldiers. I wonder..."

Before Eric could finish, Lieutenant Colonel Freeman interrupted him: "Don't worry, I have sent those young men to the nearest camp. According to the filming plan, they have at least one month of training time."

"Within a month, even if he is a weakling, I can turn him into a qualified soldier. Of course, that's just on the screen."

"Then I feel relieved. I hope we can get along well!"
