Chapter 57

"The audience like it is the first factor I consider when making a movie." Duke answered naturally.

"Like an explosion?"

"Yes, explosion?"

"Where do you plan to bomb next?" The reporter was curious.

"I think the White House is a good goal."

This was an awards ceremony full of jokes. No one would take such words seriously, but Duke added, "Of course it is in the movie."

"We look forward to seeing such shots."

"Thank you!"

After dealing with the reporters, Dukla led Naomi Watts to the exit of the side door. MTV will have another party next, but tomorrow he is going to San Francisco and does not intend to attend.

"I heard Nancy say..." Naomi said with dazzling eyes, holding Duke. "You have hired two screenwriters and are filling in two scripts? Will you really blow up the White House next?"

"Actually a script has been completed." Duke shrugged. "The White House, Congress, Manhattan, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Statue of Liberty, and the Washington Monument are all targets I want to blow up. I want to destroy the entire North America."

Going out of the side entrance, the rented RV is already ∠, after waiting here, Dukla opened the door, and when Naomi Watts got in the car, he got into the rear compartment.

"North Hollywood." Duke ascended to the baffle separating the front and rear seats.

Naomi Watts has never forgotten the topic just now. After thinking about it, she asked tentatively, "Is the new script or the man's play?"

"Not exactly..." Duke shook his head. "It will be a group show."

He couldn't guess the blonde girl's thoughts, stretched out his hand to lift her chin, hooked it in front of him, and slowly kissed the two pink and soft red lips, and a tender little tongue immediately penetrated His mouth, like the sea breeze of this season, gently swept across every sensitive area.

"Duke..."

After a long time, the two separated, Naomi's arms hanging from his neck, joy in his blue-green eyes, "I...how should I thank you?"

"You're welcome." Duke's eyes swept across her face, sliding all the way down. "You are really beautiful, Nami."

Naomi's arms slowly pulled Duke closer to her chest, so that his face was directly attached to the opening of the low-cut dress. She knew very well that Duke was interested in her charming and charming Body, this is also her biggest asset in front of him.

Twenty-five-year-old Naomi Watts is the most beautiful age for a woman. Duke also needs a suitable bed. Companion to relieve the anxiety and pressure brought by his career. He is not the kind who only knows how to ask for something. Those who don't pay, those roles that suit the other party, why don't they give it to her?

It was another intoxicating night. The two of them were like most of the men and women in this circle. They didn't think about tomorrow and didn't look at the past. They stood on the same line for the time being because of their current interests and needs.

The next day, Duke returned to San Francisco, and the filming of "Break in Death Island" has entered the final stage. Even during the two days of his absence, the crew did not temporarily stop. Under the leadership of Zach Schneider, Many literary dramas on Alcatraz Island were filmed.

Another morning was the end of filming. The others were resting after lunch. As the core members of this team, Zach Schneider, Sofia Coppola and John Schwarzman sat with Duke. Watch the footage taken these days in front of the monitor.

"Look here, Zach."

Press the pause button and Duke pointed to the picture. It was the Marine Corps descending from the building. "You are shooting in parallel here. If you change the angle, use the overhead shot on the ground and watch the speed from bottom to top. Down, will there be different senses?"

"The downhill team went straight to the camera and landed." Zach Schneider also accumulated a lot of experience when he was shooting the commercial, and soon he wanted to understand, "If it is placed in a theater, there will be an illusion of landing in front of the audience."

"That's right..." Duke raised his thumb to him and said, "For shots like this, we can slow down in post-production and increase the pressure on the audience."

"Helicopters and SEALs are still on the crew," Zach Schneider apparently agreed with Duke. "I will go back to film these in the afternoon."

"Zach, you have a natural keen sense of touch in the use of color."

This is a partner who has established a certain trust relationship with each other, Duke said bluntly, "But the use of the lens is your weakness."

After discussing a few more things about the lens and shooting, Zach Schneider and John Schwarzman took the lead to leave, and Sofia sat behind Duke's side and remained silent.

"Duke, can I make a copy of the film after shooting." She said suddenly.

"Do another experiment?" Duke understood that Sophia had never relaxed the opportunity to learn and practice in private. "I will say hello to Robin and Charles. You can print a copy, but you have to pay for it yourself!"

"Also!" Duke pointed to Sophia behind, "If any film goes out, I will definitely kill you, Sophia! I promise!"

"It's not in a hurry now." Sophia ignored Duke's words, "After you close the lens, I will take all the films to the Warner Lab for a copy, and then edit a film that suits my taste."

"Do you want to cut an action movie into a romance?" Duke said teasingly.

"Then it depends on my personal hobbies." Sophia shrugged and reminded him, "The lunch break is almost over, we should go to the studio."

After the mtv awards ceremony, due to the relationship between the live broadcast and media hype, the name of "Break into the Dead Island" was further spread, coupled with the chain reaction brought by Duke on "Speed ​​of Life", this movie is in action There is a certain degree of popularity among the huge group of movie fans.

And Naomi Watts. After walking the red carpet once, she really made some impressions. She also appeared on a talk show on a local TV station. She is a smart woman who knows that there are Duke and Nan. Hee and Warner's promotional film factors also talked a lot about "Brave to Death Island" in an interview.

As a veteran Hollywood giant, Warner Bros. is no weaker than Twentieth Century Fox in terms of publicity. They have formulated a comprehensive publicity plan for "Breakthrough Island", even after watching many popular shots taken by Duke , Has listed this film as one of Warner's most important summer projects.

The clouds and fog covering the Golden Gate Bridge are unpredictable, and every day can bring surprises. On the way back and forth to Alcatraz Island in the next two weeks, Duke will take advantage of the sunrise and sunset to take some wide-angle shots. The last shot on Alcatraz Island, no After speeding, collisions, and explosions, it seemed extraordinarily quiet, without the interruption of noise. Except for Duke, who felt a little flat, the spirit of the rest of the crew improved significantly, and even the pace of shooting continued to accelerate.

After more than two months of hard work and suffering, "Break into Death Island" has gradually come to the end of filming.

On the entertainment plaza on Alcatraz Island, Duke put on the hat representing the lucky Los Angeles Raiders on his head against the blowing sea breeze, looked at the Golden Gate Bridge from a distance, turned and walked behind the monitor.

"Go ahead," he said to Sofia.

Sophia's nasal words came through the loudspeaker.

"The one hundred and fifty-second scene, the fifteenth act, begin!"

Among the people walking back and forth, Ed Harris found the group of little tourists and squatted in front of a blond little girl. His old serious face was all friendly.

"Will you do something for me? This matter is very important. I want you to talk to the teacher and let the teacher take you back to the boat immediately."

"Ok..."

The little blonde girl nodded.

Seeing that there was no problem with the little girl's performance, Duke let out a sigh of relief. Children and animals were the most uncontrollable factors when shooting, but the little girl obviously had acting experience and the last shot passed smoothly.

"Cut!"

After shouting to stop, Duke asked for a loudspeaker from Sofia, raised it and said, "For two and a half months, we have encountered various difficulties. Everyone has been tortured by the noise. Don't deny it, I know you all call in private. I am the noise maker..."

A burst of laughter broke out in the temporary set.

"thank you all."

Although I have encountered such a bad thing as the shutdown, compared to the last time, this shooting has gone too far, especially the crew, who are basically working in the same direction. "Each of you is an important part of the crew. !"

"Last point," Duke said. "Tomorrow we will return to Burbank. At Warner Studios, we have a grand party!"

"Wow..."

The crew made a strange cry of excitement. After being tortured by Duke with a crash and explosion for more than two months, they could finally relax.

The sun moved to the west and approached the sea infinitely. The crew finished packing and put all the equipment on the boat. Duke and the cast and crew boarded the ferry and headed towards the dock of San Francisco Bay amid the roar of the motor.

"Sophia..." Duke said as he walked to the bow of the ship habitually, "The film and equipment are temporarily sealed and stored in the warehouse opposite the Warner Factory Studio... Oh, yes, if you have time, you can find someone to help you copy it. For a film, I have already greeted two production managers."

"Thank you."

"You are welcome between us."

Going to the bow, Duke found that the little blond girl who was playing with Ed Harris was standing next to the guardrail. When the other party saw him, they beckoned, "Hello, Mr. Director."

"Hello." The accent girl seemed to come from the East Coast.

The little girl is probably less than ten years old, with conspicuous blond hair and unusual blue and green eyes. She is not so pretty, but cute.

"Hey, honey..."

A middle-aged woman ran over and pulled the little girl to the rear cabin, "Why did you run out alone..."

Looking back at the mother and daughter, Duke shook his head. As long as there is demand in Hollywood, a large number of parents will send their children into this Vanity Fair.

After dispelling these unrelated thoughts, Duke looked into the distance, and after the crew's party was over, there were more important post-productions waiting for him.
