863: Keep improving
According to the rule of the "Furious and Fast" series one in two years, "Furious and Fast 6" will not be released until at least 2003. Lin Yibin has every time to film "The Shocking Demons and Thieves".
Lin Yibin is now in Hollywood. Not only is he so popular, but he is definitely a director who doesn’t have to worry about finding a job. As long as he can make a big-selling movie, countless film companies will come to him and seek to cooperate with him.
It is important to know that Global will not let go of his money tree easily. There must be a lot of scripts waiting for him to choose. This is thanks to Li Donglai's personal invitation, and Lin Yibin agreed.
The saying that God has been in contact with for a long time is not false.
As early as when "Furious and Fast 5" was released, Li Donglai recommended movies to his fans through his personal official website. He also interacted with him on Twitter.
The Phantom is like a tiger who can get Lin Yibin's joining.
In Li Donglai's eyes, there is probably no more suitable director candidate than Lin Yibin, except himself.
Since Lin Yibin joined the "Furious and Fast", 3.4.5 has been more exciting than the other. The mission location has also traveled around the world, and the shooting scenes have been even better. The performances of two racing-oriented figures Dominic (Vin Diesel) and Brian (Paul Walker), are becoming more and more exciting, and the more you play.
This can also be seen from the side that Lin Yibin is becoming more and more confident. He is becoming more and more skilled in handling big scenes, and is able to advance the tense rhythm easily. These factors are also what the "Shocking Demons and Thieves" need.
"The Shocking Demons" is also a group starring role, and has similarities to "Furious and Fast".
As a commercial movie, I believe that "The Shocking Demons" will surely shine in Lin Yibin's hands and make it a hit series that is not inferior to the "Furious and Fast" series.
One is a general producer, one is a general director. Two starring actors...
This is the main creators of the movie. After in-depth exchanges with each other, everyone was satisfied. At this point, Lin Yibin officially took over the "Shocking Demons and Thieves Group". As for the improvement of the script, it is even more not a problem.
Then the Phantom announced that Lin Yibin, the head of the "Furious and Fast" series, took over the "Shocking Demons", and was scheduled to be released in North America on May 31, 2013.
The media responded enthusiastically to this.
Although fans have a lot of opinions about Li Donglai not directing, there are already signs that he will not participate in directing the film. It is understandable that Lin Yibin can take over "The Shocking Demons and Thieves". They are all Chinese.
Moreover, Lin Yibin did a good job in the "Furious and Fast" series of movies, exciting, good-looking and fashionable!
"The Shocking Demons" has Li Donglai at the helm. Lin Yibin controls it, and the expectation also rises sharply.
The only thing that is worried is the fans of the "Furious and Fast" series. Is Lin Yibin not directing the sixth part? Global quickly clarified the news, "Furious and Fast 6" will still wait for Justin Lin's return. We will not give up on him."
At the same time, the casting work of "The Shocking Demons" was also underway. In addition to Jesse and Baby, the old, middle-aged and young actors were not missing.
Li Donglai was very busy. In order to perfect the script of "The Legend of the Demons", he still visited the director Christopher Nolan, whom he liked very much. His "Dark Knight" created the peak achievements of hero films, a darker and more mature work than his previous work. He used the techniques of a realistic police and gangster film to package an extremely realistic superhero story, successfully unearthing the deep character of the character and the human philosophy contained in the story. He elevated the comic film to a new level and became the first superhero film in film history to enter the "1 billion dollar club".
Lee Donglai remembers that when he first watched this movie, he was filming "Unfatable City" in South Korea. Because he encountered obstacles in shooting, the director gave him a movie ticket and watched the movie with Son Ye-jin.
That kind of interlocking tension and excitement... still unforgettable.
Lin Yibin was also very excited to hear Li Donglai invite Christopher. If "The Legend of the Demons" can start with Christopher Nolan, the behind-the-scenes cast lineup will be really the best!
Christopher is busy finishing the work behind the scenes of "The Dark Knight Rises", but he didn't directly refuse. After all, it was Li Donglai's first visit, and there were fewer and fewer Hollywood could let him do this.
"Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" is scheduled to be released globally from July 19, 2012. "Avengers" is scheduled to be released on May 4, and there is no direct conflict between the two. However, the superhero blockbusters released in 2012 will inevitably be compared.
After this contact, we also looked at each other secretly.
"Why don't you write it yourself? You are the best group of people in Hollywood who write scripts." Christopher smiled.
Li Donglai spread his hands and said, "I can't write it out. I'm going to tell you, I can't find that feeling. I always feel that simply robbing the rich and helping the poor and avenging my father is a little too selfish. But I can't find the entry point to justify the entire Demon-thief Group and make the whole story bright."
"Do you think I can find it?"
"certainly!"
Li Donglai smiled and said, "You are an expert in this field. As long as you can reach 80% of the level of "The Dark Knight", it is enough to establish the victory."
Christopher adapted a best-selling comic into a philosophical superhero movie, showing an indescribable talent and magical power. But this deification is also a huge pressure. Christopher smiled bitterly and said: "I prefer the rhythm of Inception. The inspiration of "The Dark Knight" is irrepeatable. Even in the production of "The Dark Knight Rises", I have many regrets..." The character texture of the villain Destroyer Bain is not as good as the Joker.
He didn't say the last sentence, Li Donglai was his opponent, not the one who expressed his heart.
He still did not refuse, leaving behind Li Donglai's preliminary script framework, and promised to take time to think carefully and give an answer as soon as possible.
Although they are in Hollywood, they are frequently compared by the media.
But the two did not meet privately, and the last time they met was at the awards ceremony. This time, Li Donglai took the initiative to visit. Of course, he had to talk about topics that were both interested in - movies.
Li Dong talks about his "Avengers", and Nolan talks about his "The Dark Knight Rises"!
Li Donglai has his own bright rhythm and refreshing points, and Nolan also has the depth of his story. After this conversation, Li Donglai really found his shortcomings.
"The Dark Knight" caused sensation and shocking because of the Joker's actions and the plot of Batman saving the people, it is easy to remind people of the 9-11 incident. "The Joker" brought the audience the deepest fear, and the ultimate mental collapse of the character also greatly enhanced the film's humanity and practical significance.
Even the "big background" reflected in this movie "The Rise of the Dark Knight", which is in the finale of post-production, is a financial crisis.
In contrast, "Avengers" still stays at the point of alien invasion and fighting monsters to defend their homes. In a sense, Li Donglai is inferior.
Integrate the story into the background of the times. This is what Li Donglai lacks.
After some exchanges, he didn't know that Nolan had not benefited, but he himself benefited a lot.
Li Donglai's time is precious, not to mention that he has left behind the filming of "Teddy Bear".
After leaving Nolan, Li Donglai did not return to the crew of "Teddy Bears". Because "Avengers" has come to an end, he must stay here throughout the process and wait for the film to take shape.
The closer the final stage is, the more important it is. He worked hard for nearly a year to shoot, but he didn't want the film to be ruined at the end. The main creators behind the scenes of the film once again participated in the series, checking the final formation of the film.
Disney's "Golden Scissors" jeffrey-ford and Paul-Bell worked together to cut the messy shot into a 155-minute complete movie based on Li Donglai's script and pre-plan.
In the screening room, everyone was wearing glasses and watching over and over again.
"Stop!"
Li Donglai suddenly took off his glasses and shouted.
"What's wrong?" Everyone was shocked, "The movie is very good."
To be honest, the story of the formation has exceeded the expectations of Marvel and Disney, and Li Donglai's golden sign once again shines brightly. Especially the imaginative battle scene that day, looking at the entire Hollywood history, it seems that no war can match such a scene.
They seem to have seen the box office burst after the release next year.
But Li Donglai was not satisfied with these things?
“I think it’s necessary to make some modifications in some places.”
Inspired by Nolan, Li Donglai had many new ideas.
Dozens of Hollywood studios showed their strengths and gathered together to finally design the fantastic battle scenes that Li Donglai conceived. They are more exciting than expected and more imaginative than any major battle scenes seen in the past. This is Li Donglai's advantage, but once again looking at the overall situation, he found that this is all that deserves praise.
"Li, tell me the situation, I think it's very good?" Kevin asked in confusion.
People are constantly improving, and movies are also OK.
If you look back at the already formed movies, you will find many problems.
Li Donglai shook his head and said, "Don't you think it's too hollow? Whenever you want to enter some deeper connotations, you will destroy this moment by a joke. I suddenly realized that when telling the overall view of a story, you are often completely destroyed by my cleverness that is eager to please the audience. Those relaxed and funny jokes cannot cover up the noise and hollowness of this film. I have made the same mistake in such videos."
"The beginning is too slow, so I will streamline it."
jeffrey-ford wondered: "You ask me to compress again?"
"Yes." Li Donglai said: "Some pictures are too long and can be compressed to within 140 minutes!"
Paul-Breast Bell felt a little weird and smiled: "In the past, they all disliked us cutting too much. You are such an exception!"
Chapter completed!
