The blizzard that ravaged Warsaw finally stopped. Although the sun was weak, the crew still devoted themselves to normal work. For every extra day of stay, so many people consumed green US dollars. Even though Ryan offered more than 30 million US dollars in production costs for this film, the money was not so wasted.

The crew hired a large number of people and, with the assistance of the Warsaw City Hall, spent more than a day cleaning out several blocks of the temporary studio location and the location.

Before the shooting, Ryan had a very important thing to do, which was to dye his long hair that he had grown to black again.

For a long time, his hair would remain in this color, because after filming "The Pianist", there were also Aragon and Peter Jackson who called in person, hoping that he would appear in New Zealand by May at the latest.

Although "The Pianist" also tells the Holocaust, its style is completely different from "Schindler's List". Whether it is the script provided by Ryan or the pictures conceived by Roman Blansky, there is no sensational element, but some are cold, the objective and cruel cold.

Ryan naturally knew what kind of way to perform during filming. Even if there were problems, they were all minor problems. Other Jewish actors seemed to be difficult to adapt, even though Roman Polansky had already talked enough before the filming started.

"God, look, look, they are building walls!"

The actress named Jessica Kate Mayer stood in front of the window and saw workers building walls on the street outside, as if she wanted the Jewish quarter to be completely blocked. Her voice was a little loud and she was also frightened.

Ryan and several others had just surrounded the window, and Roman Polansky, behind the camera, shouted to stop.

He walked up to the actress, pointed out the window and said, "What I need is peace, look. Look, there is a wall outside, you don't need surprise or emotion."

The actors, including Ryan, quickly took their place, and the assistant director shouted to start.

"Look, come and see." The actress seemed to have found her state, and there was no emotion in her lines, "They are building walls."

Spearman's family stood in front of the window and looked outside silently, like a group of bystanders.

After another indoor group scene, Ryan walked to the side and sat in the rest chair and slowly adjusted his breathing. Because most of the crew were Jewish actors, just like when filming "Schindler's List", the atmosphere in the crew was a bit depressing.

"Do you need something to drink?"

"Hi, Chen."

The person who came here was Chen Jiazheng. He came here with the last group of Jenkins Films before filming, and temporarily acted as the assistant of Roman Polansky's assistant. To put it simply, he was doing odd jobs on the crew.

Don’t underestimate such an inconspicuous position. I don’t know how many students at the University of Southern California Film Academy have made their heads and cannot join the official film crew.

"Before Ryan came, Professor Gret asked me to tell you that if you can't meet the prescribed requirements this semester, he will never let you graduate next year."

After handing over the hot coffee, Chen Jiazheng sat next to Ryan. "Our tutor is the one who does what he says."

"Don't worry, I won't let Professor Gret catch the handle." Ryan suddenly remembered the other three guys, "Where is Darren and the others?"

They shouldn't let this opportunity to enter the crew to practice.

"Darren and others are more interested in horror movies. They followed Ms. Sloan to the crew of "Scream 3". " Chen Jiazheng looked at the Jewish actors and seemed a little dazzled. After a while, he said, "I read the original work and read the crew you wrote in the company. I specially asked Ms. Sloan to have the chance to come to Poland."

"Just call me directly." Ryan patted his arm, Chen Jiazheng shook his head, and suddenly said, "Come here and get to know friends like you and Darren, it is my greatest gain."

"You have given me too much help," he said again.

Ryan changed Chinese, "Okay, don't say these girls, why are you here?"

Ryan's vulgar words made Chen Jiazheng smile, but he then returned to his serious expression. "At present, the most outstanding and influential movies on the Holocaust theme are recognized as "Schindler's List". I know you have starred in that movie. Now that you are going to produce "Pianist" and also personally starred in Mr. Spearman, this movie must have his own uniqueness."

He seemed to be hesitating and said, "Ryan, don't you know that you know about China during World War II? The crimes committed by the Japanese in my motherland are definitely no less than the Nazi massacre of the Jews..."

"Feel sorry."

When he said this, he remembered that there was a Jewish person on the other side.

"It's okay." Ryan asked after making a gesture that he didn't mind, "Is it... the Nanjing Massacre?"

"You know this?"

After staying in California for so many years, Chen Jiazheng naturally knew that most Americans neither knew nor cared about this tragedy in history.

Ryan was silent.

"The Japanese still don't admit it..."

Listening to Chen Jiazheng's intermittent words, Ryan was still silent.

"If possible, I would like to shoot a movie myself to remind the whole world that during World War II, a group of wild beasts also committed a shocking tragedy in the Far East."

Looking at his confident friend, Ryan broke his silence, "Chen, I... am an outsider, so I can't say much. I'll remind you that there is a book called "Rabe Diary", which should have been published in 1996 or 1997. It tells the history you talk about. If you have time, you can come and take a look, which will definitely be helpful to you."

"Also, if you need it, I can find someone to introduce Ms. Zhang Chunru to you." Ryan suddenly asked, "Are you sure you don't stay in Hollywood?"

"After graduation, I will return to China." Chen Jiazheng said very firmly.

"All right."

Everyone has their own ideals, and this kind of thing cannot be forced. Ryan thought for a while, "If there is a place that needs help, even if you don't know much, I think there will be no excellent movies without money, no matter whether it is China or the United States."

Even though he said that, Ryan knew that if Chen Jiazheng returned to China to develop, he would be very limited in his help.

Compared to Stephen Spielberg, Roman Polansky's shooting speed can only be described as turtle speed. He can only shoot a few shots in a whole day, which is a common occurrence. The crew officially started shooting not long, and actors including Ryan also need some time to adapt to his style.

Time slowly entered late March. The cold in the air in Warsaw gradually dissipated and the sun became warmer and warmer. However, the good weather did not bring substantial changes to the crew's progress. When the scene of Spearman's lonely survival was filmed, Ryan and Polansky had a disagreement.

"Only enough hunger can you understand what Spearman was deprived. Without a certain degree of personal experience, it is difficult for you to understand his original behavior."

On the street full of miscellaneous things, Roman Polansky was shouting at Ryan, "If you don't know how much hunger will affect your behavior, how can you, as an actor, think beyond your desire for food?"

"Mr. Polansky, I am a person first and an actor second. If I can't even guarantee the most basic physical strength, how about acting?" The old-fashioned suit covers Ryan, and his trousers are empty. You can imagine how thin he has now.

"Are you afraid of affecting the image on the Oscar's red carpet in a few days?" Polansky seemed to have forgotten that he was not only facing an actor, but also the producer of the movie. At this time, his words were already speechless.

Ryan's cheeks had already sunken, too lazy to argue with this guy, so he walked straight to the rest area, sat in a chair, took George's prepared dark chocolate to replenish the energy consumed by the shooting.

In his opinion, Polansky seems to be crazy now, and he vaguely shows that he wants to turn this movie into a milestone work in film history. The requirements for actors are not strict, but rather they have to be described as perverts.

Just talk about myself, in order to film the continuous diet, I was in a state of hunger almost every day, and my body began to have adverse reactions. Even so, Roman Polansky also asked him to continue to lose weight, as if he really wanted to become skinny and bones to be satisfied.

Ryan believes that his professional qualities are excellent enough to achieve this, which can be seen from the admiration of the crew members.

Honor is very important, but if you completely destroy your body for this, it will be unpaid.

Besides, sacrifice your body to achieve Roman Polansky's title as the great director, he is not so great yet.

Ryan even considered that if Roman Polansky continues to be paranoid and can't figure out the situation, then replace him.

It is not a big deal to have conflicts between the producer and starring director. At this time, someone needs to play a lubrication role in the middle, and Polansky's agent plays this role well.

"Ryan, you know Roman's past experience. He just wanted to truly reproduce the situation in that year." The other party stood beside Ryan's chair and whispered to the director's director, "I know his request was a bit too much..."

"Forget it." Ryan waved his hand casually and said, "Let's shoot the scenes of others first. I'm going to go back to Los Angeles to participate in the Oscars tomorrow. When I come back..."

"As long as you maintain your current body shape, I promise there will be no problems."
