Burbank, Los Angeles, Bowei Film Headquarters.

Yelemov, Daniel Grass, senior executives of Touchstone and Bowei Films, as well as Lengshan director Tony Scott, author and chief screenwriter Charles Fraser, editor Chris Lebenson sat in the first row of the movie room, followed by photography, soundtrack and other creators.

Leng Shan’s editing, soundtrack and later work have been completed. As the awards season is about to hit next year, Bowei Film is preparing to learn from Titanic to send it to the Tokyo Film Festival held at the end of this month for its first appearance.

Before the Christmas period, some preview activities for professional film critics will be organized, and the film evaluation project will be lifted early, and the three producers and publishers will be confident.

In short, before serving the dishes, they will watch them first, and then hold a meeting to carry out unified promotional and promotional caliber. The movie room is still constantly entering. Celebrities are always restrained in such occasions, holding their breath and calming down, and each finds a seat to sit silently.

"Where is Natasha?"

Jennifer Connery, who had already filmed in the crew of "Awakening from Death", and Lengshan male protagonist Kavize, who was raising a scandal with her, sat down next to Xuelinfen and asked in a low voice.

"She went to the UK and auditioned." Xuelinfen replied.

"Oh." Jennifer Connery glanced at the front row a few times, but didn't see APLUS, but there were two empty seats left by the executive vice president of Bowei Pictures, so he waited with peace of mind.

Wait, why are there two empty seats? Nicole Kidman didn't seem to be here either? She frowned.

Soon, the movie room was almost full, and some actors who were in a critical period of their career were a little nervous, especially the male protagonist Kavezer. He was the first to be a big 70 million male protagonist adapted from such a best-selling book. This movie was so important to his career when he was thirty years old. After sitting down, he held his chin with his hands and secretly observed the expressions of Yeremov and others in the front row from time to time. The walking and coughing of others could attract him to look at him.

Jennifer Connery and Shellinfen saw his condition as a frightened rookie. This was how he came through. The two women looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

"Please be quiet."

The staff of Bowei Film Industry asked to close the door and press the red indicator light outside the door.

"Wait for a while." The executive vice president of Bowei Film looked at the two seats still empty beside him and ordered.

Yeremov and Daniel looked at the watch impatiently at the same time.

That shouldn't be waiting for him. Indeed, today's occasion is full of people and it's not convenient for him to show up. Jennifer Connery observed the actions of the two.

Sure enough, there was a commotion outside the door, "Sorry...hey, hello, hello..." Superstar Tang Chunfeng entered the door with a smile and greeted the familiar actors nearby. His wife Nicole Kidman held his arms and had a significant height difference.

"Tom, Nicole, welcome." Bowei Films' executive vice president brought people to welcome the top Hollywood star couple.

Liang Tang is a powerful Hollywood figure who can dominate hundreds of millions of productions. Many actors stood up and shook hands and hugged him one by one, "I'm not late, are you?" The two arrived at the time. Liang Tang asked his mentor Tony Scott and other senior executives.

"It's very on time, please sit down." Bowei Film Executive Vice President personally led the two to the seats.

Nicole Kidman smiled and sat down before looking back, and looked at Jennifer Connery for a moment before turning her face away.

"Hello, Tom." Yelemov reached out and shook hands with Liang Tang, and Daniel and Charles Fraser, who had a feast with him, chose to ignore it.

"Hello."

After Liangtang shook hands with Yelemov, he ignored the two and sat down to tidy up his suit. The executive vice president of Bowei Films signaled to the staff that he could start.

The door was closed, the lighting was turned off, and the viewing room immediately became dark.

Very quiet.

A+ Film Studio's simple logo appears on the screen, followed by Touchstone Pictures, Grass Pictures and Bowei Pictures.

Accompanied by melodious soundtracks, the rippling waves on the lake and A+ movie studios, Touchstone Pictures, Grass Pictures, and Bowei Pictures’ subtitles, Nicole Kidman’s narration rings, which is the original passage of the novel where the heroine misses the hero.

Nicole has a very good foundation, and a restrained memory is pronounced with a faint sadness and feelings for the male protagonist.

His debut work was brought to the big screen. Charles Fraser suppressed his excitement and took advantage of the darkness to turn his head and secretly observe the goddess not far away.

Nicole Kidman was very focused on watching, but his husband Liang Tang felt it and looked back sternly. Charles Fraser was guilty of avoiding the other party's gaze.

Amid Nicole's beautiful narration, the plot goes directly to the famous Second Battle of Petersburg in the late Civil War.

In 1864, the Northern Army besieged Petersburg, the Southern Fortress, for ten months. The battle was very fierce. The Northern Army suffered 420,000 casualties and 280,000 casualties. The war was very beneficial to the Northern Army at the beginning. The 48th Pennsylvania Army, composed of coal mine workers, quietly dug five hundred feet of tunnels underground in the center of the Southern Army's defense line, buried eight thousand pounds of explosives, and directly bombarded the most core defense line of the Southern Army into the sky, creating a big break.

But unfortunately, due to the lack of planning and the commander's unreliable plan, 20,000 Yang Jila took advantage of the situation to launch a charge in the sea of ​​people and plunged into an explosion pit of more than 70 meters long, more than 20 meters wide, and more than 10 meters deep. The soldiers in front could not climb up, and the soldiers behind were squeezing forward without knowing the situation. As a result, they were surrounded by the Southern Army who reacted and shot at the target from a high place.

This war scene was mainly filmed in Ireland. After a brave heart, the Hollywood war scenes that saved the soldier Ryan and the local extras were very professional. The Irish government also sent some active-duty soldiers to support the filming. The special effects of the explosion, the rain of bullets, the flying of flesh and blood, and the instant burning of clothes on people by high temperature shock waves are perfectly presented.

If Song Ya is present, you will see that this scene is much more exciting and grand than the original Apocalypse film.

This version is also very consistent with historical facts, such as the Indian comrades around the hero.

As the emerging bourgeoisie in the north developed rapidly, a large number of raw materials, land and personnel demands were generated, and this inevitably conflicted with the Indians due to the territory and resource distribution. Lincoln, who "liberated black people", was a supporter of the Westward Movement. The Homestead Law of 1862 stipulated that any American citizen over the age of 21, or a young and middle-aged European man who meets the naturalization regulations, could receive no more than 160 acres of western state-owned land as a share by free or paying a registration fee of ten dollars.

Of course, the land in the west needs to be snatched from the Indian tribes. In the same year as the Second Battle of Petersburg, there were also massacres against Indians such as the Sha Creek Massacre.

Because the south is dominated by agricultural economy, the economic structure is developing slowly, and there are fewer conflicts of interest with the Indians, the two sides can basically be at peace for a long time, so many Indian tribes chose to join the Southern Army. They reached a series of agreements with the Southern Government to preserve their residence after the war and obtain citizenship rights.

There are also black people. Since the owner of the southern manor has a large number of black slaves who are dependent on their personal relationships, there are also many black people in the Southern Army, mainly doing some dirty and tiring logistics work.

As a new era writer who rose after the hippie movement, Leng Shan described all aspects of these history more objectively, had a more equal perspective on all ethnic groups, and was relatively less stereotyped than Piao.

The only protagonist in this scene is Inman, a soldier in the South Army played by Kavezer. Kavezer looked at himself on the big screen and his eyes were full of glory. After years of Hollywood hard work, he finally had a chance to become famous, and his eyes began to wet.

The worried director Tony Scott is still quite satisfied with this. He has learned what APLUS has led to changes. Since most of the exposed scenes and empty shots of APLUS need to be increased rather than decreased, and the total length is not much, his old friend Chris Lebenson basically still implements his will with the power of an editor.

Bowei also agreed to relax the length of the full film because of the time added by APLUS, which increased to two hours and forty-two minutes. In fact, minus the part added by APLUS, he actually made a little profit.

"Is he here?" Jennifer Connery's second female lead Ruby appeared late. She looked at Nicole Kidman's face on the screen and asked Xuelinfen in a low voice.

"Well, in Beverly Hills." Sullinfen replied.

Since Mira and Natasha Kinsky went to the UK for audition, Shilinfen returned to Los Angeles. Song Ya didn't want to stay in Chicago after reaching a tacit understanding with Daly Little, so she asked the Blade Warrior crew to adjust for two days, left Harley on the set, and took the time to run to Los Angeles.

"I tell you, APLUS has the ability to be like a prophet, otherwise how could you explain that he has achieved such success in less than ten years? He can predict the future, look at the stocks he bought, the artists he signed, and the movies he made!"

In the grand ballroom, MC Hammer was spitting and speaking to Beyoncé’s father, Matthew Norris.

"Enough! I'm a science student and worked as an engineer at Xerox!"

Matthew Norris sternly stopped MC Hammer and pointed his finger at him and Linda, "Don't think I don't know your tricks! Don't brainwash me! Create a god? I don't eat this! APLUS bullies my daughter..."

"Matthew, Beyoncé has admitted that she was voluntary." Linda whispered: "She is also an adult."

"Haha, I'm not three-year-old Linda, he's the owner of a record company, he's dominant in his relationships with my daughter, in that case he..."

Matthew Norris is very pampering his baby daughter, and he has been watching it very tightly. He is excited and refuting quickly. Suddenly, he saw APLUS floating in the distance. The reason why he used "floating" is because APLUS's upper body has not moved, and his whole body seems to be floating on the ground and moving...

I didn't see any external force...

"He..." Matthew Norris couldn't help but shorten his mouth when he saw this scene.

In fact, after he was blocked by people, Song Ya's feet were quickly tidying down, just like Jerry in the cartoon of cat and mouse, pointing to the ground with his toes and slid against the wall, trying to avoid attracting the attention of the party members to the greatest extent.

He came to see Matthew Norris, and didn't see them at the first time. He focused all his energy on Beyoncé, who was chatting with other members of the Destiny Real Girl in the middle of the banquet hall. The girl's mood had recovered and she looked as usual and chatted with the little sisters.

When he thought of the black muzzle that the girl pointed at her forehead that night, he felt a little trembling.

Feeling guilty, afraid...

He shrank his neck.

Beyoncé shouldn't want to bother Linda and said that she was just too impulsive that night. After calming down, she even asked Linda to convey an apology, but her father Matthew Norris still had the intention to hold on. Today, while Matthew led the team in Los Angeles, Song Ya planned to officially get rid of the final solution.

"Let's go find him." Linda winked at former boss MC Hammer and brought Matthew Norris to meet him alone.

"Hey! Matthew, how are you doing recently?" The scene was a little awkward, and Song Ya covered it up with enthusiasm.

"Little bastard! I really want to splash this glass of wine on your face!"

Matthew Norris was holding a glass of champagne in his hand and stared at the scumbag who bullied his daughter gritted his teeth.

"Hehe..." Song Ya had no choice but to laugh dryly.

"Matthew, it's all about young people." Linda advised him, "Young people nowadays, you know their..."

"I don't know! Beyoncé is a good girl, she is my treasure!"

Matthew Norris doesn't want the Black Pharaoh in front of him so cheaply, "You have to be responsible for APLUS!"

"Don't do this Matthew..." Linda continued to persuade.

"I apologize to you and her." Song Ya was not bad enough to be punished for being pointed at by a gun. Although Linda was very angry after that incident, the light of the clan and pride almost hung under the gun of her singer.

"I don't accept it, you have to be responsible, otherwise I will promote it."

Matthew Norris is firm, "You are her boss and are in a strong dominant position in the relationship between the two parties. In this case, you are not that innocent..."

"Matthew!"

Linda stopped him unhappily, "What do you want? We have agreed to give your record label more freedom, isn't it enough?"

"not enough!"

The two sides had negotiated before, but Matthew Norris asked for more, and he insisted that the scumbag was responsible.

"How is he responsible? Losing money?"

Actually, Song Ya didn't mind paying a little money. Linda helped test Matthew Norris' tone and threatened, "Don't think I don't know you and those women in private... this circle...haha."

Matthew Norris said nothing to his daughter, but in fact he was also an old scumbag who couldn't control his crotch. "I don't care, I'm not a star." But he was not afraid and refused, "I won't sell my daughter..."

"Then what do you want to do!?"

"Responsible!"

"What does responsibility mean? Marry Beyoncé?"

"What about that?"

"Oh my goodness! Matthew, this is impossible!" Linda exclaimed.
