The off-road vehicle was bumpy all the way and carried Ryan to the crew's residence. This was a very ordinary small town in Ireland. Because of the Spielberg crew's arrival, it became lively and busy.

Especially not too far from the town, there is an abandoned base of the Air Force. The crew's artists are leading the construction team to carry out infrastructure and destruction, hoping to build a devastated and ruined French battlefield.

"Hi, Toby."

As soon as he got off the car, Ryan saw Spielberg's assistant and asked, "Where is Stephen?"

"Oh, God, Ryan, you're finally here." Toby Hoskin led Ryan forward, "Mr. Spielberg is right in front."

Although the movie has been left for some time, the entire team has begun to be busy. Ryan has walked along the way and has hardly seen any idle people. When he came to a group of tents similar to a military camp, Spielberg was walking around with a satellite phone, shouting at the top of his lungs.

Without asking, Ryan also knew that the old Jewish man must be remotely controlling the post-production of "Jurassic Park 2". If there were no accidents, Spielberg would still not have free time while filming "Save Private Ryan".

Perhaps it was the change brought by Ryan that "Save Private Ryan", which was supposed to be filmed for a long time, has not started yet.

"Congratulations, Ryan!"

Spielberg put away the satellite phone and the first thing he did was to send congratulations. "I didn't expect that the box office record of "Jurassic Park" was rewritten so quickly."

"It's just luck." Ryan was rarely modest.

"Is it really luck?" Tom Hanks suddenly walked out of the 'barracks', "I believe that the next one to break this record will be you, Ryan."

"Oh, God!" Ryan showed a look of surprise, "Tommy, you are..."

Tom Hanks almost changed his body, his body was covered in dirty military green clothes, and his beard had not been shaved for a long time. With his sunken cheeks, he looked like a refugee who had just escaped from Africa.

"We are doing military training." Tom Hanks spread his hands helplessly, "Believe me, Ryan, you will become like this in a week."

"Yes!" Spielberg glanced up and down Ryan and said very seriously, "Ryan. You have to lose at least five pounds before the film starts."

"Okay!" Ryan would naturally cooperate, "No problem."

Fortunately, my body shape looks a little thin from the outside, otherwise losing weight will definitely be a big problem.

"Ryan, welcome to the crew." Spielberg laughed.

"Ryan, welcome you to hell." Tom Hanks was delighted that he had another suffering fellow countryman.

Originally, Spielberg wanted to place the location in the UK, but the British Ministry of Defense refused to provide assistance to the crew in military affairs, so he had to choose Ireland because the Irish military promised to send more than a thousand soldiers to assist in the filming, most of whom had also participated in movies such as "Brave Heart".

In addition, it is military training for the actors.

"Essentially, you are not actors now. You have to think about the problem with a soldier's mind, although it is difficult to become such a person!"

Ryan, Tom Hanks, Giovani Rebis and others stood in a row and listened to the routine speech of the former Marine Captain Dale Day.

The next day after entering the crew, Ryan began basic military training like other actors, even though the role he chose did not have much scenes.

Ryan and others need to quickly integrate into the film environment. In order to get into the role as soon as possible, they even learned how to use weapons, individual tactics, as well as the code and sign language of the army during World War II, etc.

To be honest, these are not too difficult for Ryan. In fact, training life is the real test.

It is normal to sleep in the open for training strokes, just like a real army. Ryan and others have to carry 40 pounds of equipment every day, marching for three miles, not only do they have no beds when sleeping, but they can only live in tents, and the rest time of each day is strictly controlled within five hours, which is a preferential treatment.

Although it was a bit hard and tired, it was easy for younger people like Ryan to say. After all, you could hold on by gritting your teeth, but for Tom Hanks, it was like hell, and every marching was a test.

However, the team spirit can always work at this time.

"If a teammate is in trouble, then you have to stop and help him!"

At this time, the former Marine Captain always said a big reason, "The army is not a movie, there is no room for personal heroism here, and team spirit is the fundamental guarantee of victory!"

After a marching, meals are often only available. For these actors who are used to enjoying it, the food can only be said to be terrible.

“Beans, canned beef, canned peanut butter, canned tomatoes…”

Sitting in the open space in front of the tent, Ryan looked through the few foods and gestured to his teammates, "Hey, guys, what do you want to eat?"

"I don't care what they want to eat."

Ryan's bodybuilder flashed like a ghost, reminding him, "Don't forget, Ryan, you have to lose five pounds of weight and you can't get any meat..."

"God!" Ryan covered his face. Canned food was already unpalatable enough. Even beef was banned. It was really worse than death. "Can I only eat canned beans and canned tomatoes?"

"Stop complaining, Ryan." Tom Hanks snatched the canned beef from Ryan without hesitation. "We envy your full protein and vitamin nutrition package."

After dinner, I only had a few minutes of rest, which was the routine weapon training time.

Although live firing is not required, aiming and other postures should be at least decent. Although the crew uses old antiques, Ryan is quite interested.

These are real guns. The prop set has found more than 700 M1 Garland and Chicago typewriters, and there are also many M1901 pistols.

The team convened by Spielberg naturally had professional abilities. Since they could not find the real Tiger tank, these guys bought two T34 tanks from Russia and converted the appearance into the Tiger tank.

Such a war epic must be a big investment and production. DreamWorks not only found Jenkins Pictures to jointly produce, but also accepted investment from Paramount Pictures. The three parties each took out about one-third of the funds.

Just as the end of August was approaching, Ryan specifically asked for leave from the Film Academy of Southern California. When the military training came to an end, a man named Van Diesel, who had no idea how he connected Spielberg's relationship and joined Ryan and his group.

Even Spielberg asked screenwriter Robert Rodat to add a role to him.

This situation is not uncommon. In Hollywood, the relationship owners are always more popular than pure newcomers. However, the appearance of this guy has inspired the crew's gossip enthusiasm.

"Ryan, this guy isn't Stephen's illegitimate child?" Of course Tom Hanks was joking. With his relationship with Spielberg, he often joked with the old Jewish man.

"It's unlikely." Ryan knocked the canned beans with a spoon, and looked very cooperatively, and after a while, he said, "This guy looks like a mixed-race man. Stephen's taste doesn't seem to be that heavy, right?"

"That's not sure, Stephen..." In just a few minutes, Tom Hanks revealed some ridiculous things about Spielberg when he was young, and these are super gossips that rarely circulate outside the circle.

Ryan's military training lasted for ten days, and he successfully lost five pounds of weight, and he looked much thinner.

"Hi, Nicole, how long hasn't seen you? You can't recognize me?"

Walking out of the temporary "army camp", Ryan saw Nicole Kidman who came to visit the set. The heartache in the Australian girl's eyes flashed.

"Why did the movie become like this before it started shooting?"

There were people coming and going here, and Nicole couldn't do anything, so she just put the hand holding Ryan's arm and exerted extra force.

"When you make war movies, you always have to look like a soldier, and you always have to suffer a little." Ryan didn't care, and whispered a few words, then asked, "Have you finished shooting the camera?"

"Well~ it ended a few days ago, there wasn't much." Nicole turned around and looked around, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Where is your room?"

"Uh..." Ryan scratched his face. Where did he have a room? He has been living in a group tent recently. "That..."

"Ryan!"

Suddenly, Tom Hanks' voice came out from behind, and then someone else caught up, "Oh, Nicole, it's time for you to come, come quickly! Something big happened!"

Something big happened? What big thing? Can Tom Hanks be so anxious? Could it be that something happened to Spielberg?

Many unreliable thoughts instantly turned in Ryan's head. He took Nicole's hand, followed Tom Hanks, and walked towards a temporary office of the theater.

Tom Hanks was extremely fast and almost ran away, obviously very anxious inside.

"What the hell happened, Tommy?" Nicole couldn't lift her speed while stepping on her high heels, and couldn't help but ask.

"It's His Highness."

His Highness, Ryan, suddenly realized that although he did not remember the specific time when the Princess of Wales had an accident, he roughly remembered it was the end of August.

Did something happened in my previous life? Will Diana escape?
