Chapter 404 Unbearable Loneliness (Earth)

The news that "Blood Battle on the Eagle Peak" will be filmed in mainland China has been spreading since mid-May. With the list of leading actors finalized one by one, mainland movie fans are looking forward to this movie even more.

Of course, there are also voices of opposition. What will the Korean War look like in Hollywood? Will it be full of the taste of "Saving Private Ryan"? Will it let senior soldiers fall in love with a blonde beauty? Disgusted.

In late June, a huge team of nearly 6 actors and crew came to Donggang, a city in the northeast of the mainland, which is only one step away from the Korean Peninsula. It is located at the easternmost tip of the Liaodong Peninsula, and its topography and climate conditions are very similar to those of the Peninsula.

Before the arrival of the actors and crew, the civil works of the project had already started. The Donggang government not only approved a filming site, but also gave a lot of preferential policies. As a small city in Northeast China, it is rare to receive such international investment. resources, so special attention is paid to them.

The shooting in Donggang is expected to be completed in early October. Before the severe winter in the Northeast region comes, the script shooting of the battlefield part will be completed, and then it will be moved to Suzhou City to shoot other scenes.

June is the season when the city of Donggang has just entered summer. When the vehicle passes the Donggang Broken Bridge, you can see the setting sun and the sparkling waves like golden scales floating on the Yalu River. A huge city with tens of thousands of lights.

Of course, Robert Downey Jr. came to Donggang, a small border town for the first time. In his perception, it should be similar to the small town on the border between the United States and Mexico. It was desolate, old and dilapidated, and the lights in front of him made him squint. Pucker up your lips.

"Maybe we can find something fun here~"

he told his agent.

The agent advised him: "Bob, you'd better not appear in the public eye, this is China, I don't know what you will face."

"Face what? Passionate fans and free beer, of course."

In order to prove it to his agent, Robert Downey Jr. rolled down the car window. At this time, they had arrived at the hotel. There were a large number of fans gathered in front of the hotel, most of them were women. It is unknown where they got the news from, perhaps Channels from within the hotel.

Anyway, once Robert Downey Jr. rolled down the window, took off his sunglasses, and waved at them.

Huge cheers erupted from the fan base: "Nini!"

"What do they call me?" Robert Downey Jr. asked his agent.

The agent didn't understand, so he guessed, "Maybe it means 'love you'?"

At this moment, Robert Downey Jr. heard louder cheers again.

"Big super!"

"Big super!"

"Dachao! I love you!"

It was the fans who saw Henry Cavill, not only cheered loudly, but even said 'I love you' perfectly.

"This is 'I love you'." Robert Downey Jr. said to his agent, "It seems that they prefer Henry Cavill's boring technical nerd, what a bunch of superficial guys."

"Bob, it's a bit frustrating to slander others behind their backs." The agent said with a smile, of course he knew that Robert Downey Jr. was joking.

At this time, more intense cheers came.

"Truman!"

"Truman!"

"You are our god!"

Some fans even cried, and the scene got out of control for a while, and it was difficult for the security guards to control those excited fans.

"Looks like I'm the least popular one." Robert Downey Jr. got out of the car.

Then he waved his hands to the crackling camera lenses. In order to restore his 'popularity', he even signed autographs and took photos with several fans, which made him more popular in the next day's mainland entertainment newspapers. Many photos and news descriptions.

Statistics later.

Only on June 6rd.

The hotel occupancy rate in Donggang has increased by nearly [-]%.

This is unusual for Donggang, a "small city" with a population of 200 million, because winter has passed. Donggang, known for its "hot springs" and "tourism", only has the highest passenger flow in winter, and now it is close to the peak passenger flow in winter in previous years. peak.

Some media reporters said that it seemed like a grand ceremony. Since 3 days ago, fans had checked into the hotel where the crew of "Blood Battle on Eagle Peak" would be staying. A small half became a hot commodity, and there were even seven or eight girls sharing a single room.

In order to deal with possible accidents, the hotel security strictly guards the top-floor suite where the crew, especially Robert Downey Jr., Henry Cavill and Truman live, to resist the fanatical fans who want to get closer to the stars around the clock .

Robert Downey Jr. originally wanted to go to the local bar to experience the taste of beer and revelry quietly, but the manager opened the window and let him see the crowd of fans gathered below the hotel, which was comparable to the scale of a small concert up.

"Bob, if you go to a bar, you don't taste the drink, they taste you," the manager said.

Robert Downey Jr. wisely dismissed the idea for the time being.

The enthusiasm of the fans did not delay the work of the crew. After arriving in Donggang, after a day of simple rest, several leading actors began to prepare for the shooting.

The first is the script reading session. Robert Downey Jr. flew directly from New York to China, and met with the crew when he was transiting in Shanghai. It’s not like Truman and Henry Cavill have been running in for a month, so he needs to find At your own pace, at least memorize the script first.

"Bob, I hope you memorize the script first." Feng Zikai said to Robert Downey Jr., because he saw that "Iron Man" still needs to read the script with the script, and the official shooting will start tomorrow up.

"Okay, okay, I'll do it." Robert Downey Jr. said to Feng Zikai while holding a bottle of beer.

"Is he drinking again?" Adam whispered to Robert Downey Jr.'s manager.

"It's just a little bit of pressure." The agent said, "Bob is a little uncomfortable in a completely unfamiliar environment."

Adam frowned, how is this possible, 'Iron Man' is not a three-year-old child.

In any case, before the second day's shooting started, Robert Downey Jr. memorized at least three pages of the script that will be filmed tomorrow. At the same time, the live performance was also very good. Professionalism is still fine.

As for the fact that Robert Downey Jr. uses a stand-in for all action scenes, there is no need to force it. After all, the contract does not stipulate that he must be a real action scene. There is no way to make such a provision for a Hollywood A-lister. Although Truman Both Henry Cavill and Henry Cavill are in the mirror.

The only problem is that Robert Downey Jr. seems to have really started to drink heavily. After half a month of shooting, he appeared on the shooting scene with the smell of alcohol several times.

His agent advised him: "Bob, you can't drink before the shoot anymore."

"But it's so boring here." He said, "I kind of regret taking this drama, imagine, I have to endure here for 3 months, it's like going to jail."

""Blood Battle on the Eagle Peak" is the war-themed film with the largest investment in recent years, and it is also produced by a Chinese team that never loses money. Because it has the mainland market, it has a high possibility of becoming a blockbuster. This kind of war-themed film Movies will also be favored by major awards, Bob, you need an award proof, and you need to prove your box office appeal again."

The agent tried his best to persuade Robert Downey Jr.
