Chapter 218: One Billion is a Better Number

"All groups, have the last confirmation? Are you all ready?"

On the set No. 1, Mark Webb sat behind several monitors, holding an intercom in his hand, and was conducting the last confirmation before shooting.

“Photography is ready!”

“Recording is ready!”

“Lights are ready!”

“OK,1,2,3,Go!”

Hearing this, after three sounds, Mark Webb finally issued a shooting order with a little excitement. He had no reason not to be excited, because from now on, he had been a film director, no longer the Mark Webb who used to shoot MVs.

"The first scene, the first shot, the first, the first action!"

Bang!

In Fu Luo's own understanding, the character of Tom is a typical literary youth. He believes in love, he likes fantasy, and even is a wild and wild one. However, Tom has done a very boring job and gave up his ideal of becoming an architect in his volunteers, and has been reluctant to take the step of making changes to his life.

Now that his love is shattered, Shamo wants to break up with him, Tom, who has nowhere to relieve his depression, has to breathe at the plate. After the sound of the board, Fu Luo instantly brings emotions. His whole face looks a little dull and a confused look, focusing on the plate that flies out of his hand.

Bang!

“Cut!”

Looking at the white plate, flying out of Fu Luo's hand like dancing, Mark Webb's eyes suddenly lit up, and a great idea and inspiration emerged from his mind.

On this side, after Fu Luo heard the "Cut" sound, he was a little confused. It was just now that he just started, so he directly NG. Could it be that there was something wrong with his previous performance? Then, he looked at director Mark Webb in confusion.

"OK, Fu, there is no problem with your performance. I just want to say, God, it's so amazing. How did you do that plate like that? It's so painful!"

Seeing this, Mark Webb immediately stood up from behind the monitor, first gestured with two fingers, and then asked in a little surprise.

"Uh, plate? Oh, just do this with your fingers!"

Fu Luo didn't expect that Mark Webb's focus was on this place. Subconsciously, he picked up a plate next to him and demonstrated it on the spot.

Bang!

“Oh, S-t!”

Mark Webb originally wanted to learn it in a good way, but he knew that as soon as he got started, he broke the plate on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Fu Luo also found it a bit funny. His movement seemed simple, but it required huge strength on his fingers to do it. Obviously, Mark Webb did not have this ability.

Mark Webb, who tried it, was naturally not a fool. He quickly understood the reason. It seemed that the action of playing a flying plate was not easy to do. After touching his nose, Mark Webb quickly changed the topic and said, "Tao, just keep the performance just now. I just need to give the plate a close-up."

"Eric, have you heard me? Add a close-up to the plate, I think you should understand what I mean?"

After a little explanation, Mark Webb turned around and reminded photographer Eric Steelberg, "The two are old friends and have worked together on many MV shootings before, so there is no need to say much about the tacit understanding.

"Director, I understand very well." Upon hearing this, photographer Eric Steelberg also nodded immediately and responded.

"OK, everyone has noticed this one, let's take another photo!"

Soon, Mark Webb sat back on the monitor and was about to start shooting again. In fact, his idea for this shot was to use a slow motion to slowly lift it up from the plate, thereby leading the male protagonist Fu Luo.

"500 Days with Shamo, the first scene, the first shot, the second action!"

Bang!

When the sound of the board sounded again, another white plate flew out of Fu Luo's simple movements. Photographer Eric Steelberg also quickly advanced the camera and gave the plate a big close-up.

Bang!

When the plate shattered, the camera was slowly pulled back, and the figure of Fu Luo, the male protagonist, slowly appeared in the entire camera.

"Tom!"

Then, Kroo Moretz's figure also appeared in the camera, and greeted Fu Luo with a slightly helpless tone.

"Rachel, what are you doing?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Luo turned his head mechanically, then looked at Kolo Moretz who suddenly appeared in front of him, and subconsciously asked.

"I'll help you?"

"help me?"

"Tom, can you put down the plate in your hand first?"

Hearing Kolo Morez's words, Fu Luo did not turn back his head as he did before, but slowly turned over and focused his attention on the plate holding it in front of his chest. Then Fu Luo's right hand relaxed slightly, and the plate fell to the ground with a "bang".

In fact, there is no last scene in the script. This is a small performance by Fu Luo himself, because this can enhance the presence of this shot and even achieve some small humorous effects. As an increasingly mature actor, during the filming process, it is easy to forcefully correct this shot that you feel is not so complete according to your own ideas.

"Cut, it's past!"

Mark Webb behind the monitor nodded with satisfaction. He could fully see an actor's strength through a simple scene. From expression to body movements, to the tone and skills of the lines, Fu Luo undoubtedly interprets the authenticity of "Cantonese Best Actor".

It just made Mark Webb a little nervous that excellent actors like Fu Luo always have some of their own ideas, such as the last scene in the previous scene. It would be fine if they could walk on the same line as him, but if they were to cooperate, it would be a bit troublesome. This seems to be a headache.

As time passed, five days passed in between, and the entire crew of "500 Days with Shamo" gradually became more and more aligned. However, tomorrow is the "New Year" for the American people, and the crew had to have three days of Christmas holiday for this.

When it comes to filming in the United States for the first time, Fu Luo’s biggest feeling is that these Americans pay great attention to the concept of time, only work eight hours a day, and then leave at the right time. Unless the notice stated in advance that they would shoot night scenes at night, even if these foreigners stay for one more second, they would feel like they suffered a big loss.

Of course, Fu Luo is not opposed to this way of working. He is just as an investment producer, and he is indeed a little confused in his mentality. However, since he has come to the United States to make movies, he must follow the local customs and get used to it slowly.

Then, usually when there is no shooting task at night, Fu Luo will always pay attention to domestic news through Su Ruijing, who is in China. For example, the movie "The Golden Armor in the City" swept the box office of 96 million in the first four days, directly breaking the first week box office record set by "Uncle" just this year.

However, it actually has nothing to do with it, because both movies are related to Fu Luo, and "Glory" is a complete collection of him. It is another thing that makes Fu Luo blush a little and has the idle media to sum up all the movies he has participated in and the box office in the mainland, directly reaching an astonishing 1 billion yuan, becoming the most popular male actor in the mainland.

As for why he blushed a little, it is naturally because these media actually counted his movies, such as "Hero", "Ten-sided Ambush" and "Seven Swords". If Fu Luo can still be considered a small supporting role in "Seven Swords", then the first two movies are definitely a supporting role. How high the box office will be in the end? Is it related to him?

Apart from these three movies, it is only about the four movies: "Qinghong", "Uncle", "Baby Plan" and "The Golden Armor in the City", which are about the same. The 20 million yuan of "Qinghong", "Uncle" 192 million yuan of "Uncle", and the 140 million yuan of "Baby Plan", and the final "Qinghong" is being released, and it is not easy to calculate the final box office results for the time being. If the original box office of 291 million yuan can still be achieved, then these four movies can also accumulate to 643 million yuan.

I guess this achievement is still the best in the mainland, so why do you have to count those three movies together? Is it because the number 1 billion is better?
