69 Emergency filming of "Run Lola Run"

"What? Ten days? Are you kidding me? Shooting a movie in 10 days? Did they think it was in Hong Kong?" Tan Jiabao was taken aback, and he said to Tan Xiaozhong: "What happened?"

It turned out that Zheng Dashi, Liu Weide and Chu Yuan had already made friends with Paramount President Robert Evans.When they were chatting together at noon today, Evans revealed that he was in trouble. One of the films he was about to release could not be released in time for some reason, another backup film had trouble during the inspection, and other The film company is also experiencing a tight film situation, which will cause Paramount's 0 or so theaters in the United States to have no film screenings.It would cost a lot, financially and reputationally, to show older films.Evans was so anxious that Chu Yuan suggested to make a new movie within 10 days without thinking about it. He said that it is not difficult to make a movie in Hong Kong in 10 days, and finally he revealed that their boss is a powerful Character, if you find him to shoot, you will be able to shoot a movie that satisfies Evans.Grabbing at straws, Evans begged them to ask their boss to go back and make movies.

"The Graduate" has already been drawn, and according to the reflections of the day, the film has achieved a box office revenue of more than 6600 million.This excited Robert Evans and the entire Paramount. They were full of confidence and strived to ascend to the throne of Hollywood's No. [-] film company as soon as possible.

"I said you've been very busy recently, so let's push this matter off." Tan Xiaozhong said with a frown.

"No!" Tan Jiabao quickly stopped Tan Xiaozhong, and then said: "We will rush to Los Angeles immediately, and let them wait for us in the office building. Also, ask them to call Evans, and I will assign tasks as soon as I arrive."

"Xiaobao, you have to think carefully, 10 days, okay? The loss of funds is not a big deal, if it fails, it will not be worth the loss if people make people laugh." Tan Xiaozhong anxiously wanted to stop Tan Jiabao's decision.

Tan Xiaozhong knows that apart from making a lot of money in the United States, their other unspoken goal is to "create a god", and they are quietly making this "Mr. Tang Xiao" a "god" that people look up to.So at this time, any failure of Tan Jiabao will affect the speed of "Mr. Tang Xiao" becoming a "God".Of course Tan Xiaozhong wanted to stop this kind of thing that even Tan Jiabao himself was not sure about.

"It's up to people!" Tan Jiabao said: "This Evans is the person I have always wanted to recruit. And he is a good friend. Now he is in trouble. If I help him, I will invite him to join us in the future. It plays a very important role. It is also of positive significance to our future development in the film industry."

Tan Xiaozhong knew that he had already made a decision, so he stopped expressing his opinion.Since Tan Jiabao is to be made a "god", his decision should be respected even more within the company.So he said: "Me, Lao Dai, and two newcomers, Jian Ning and Zhang Zhiren, a total of four people will stay here. The rest will follow you."

Tan Jiabao nodded and said: "These days when you are here, you mainly focus on the second set of plans, and you can go to the exchange or not, just grasp the market conditions of the day. I will definitely come back when the time comes .”

Tan Xiaozhong smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll send someone to call to book a flight ticket now. Go and prepare right away."

A few minutes later, Tan Jiabao and the others started to rush towards the airport.On the car to the airport, he began to think about this "emergency movie".Now that Evans has been called, it means that a shooting plan must be formulated within a few hours to Los Angeles.But he has not yet decided which movie to make.

He began to filter scene by scene of some low-cost movies he had seen in his previous life.He searched all the films from Hong Kong, Taiwan, China, Japan, South Korea, Hollywood, Bollywood, and Europe, but these films were either crudely produced, or did not meet the national conditions of the United States, or did not meet the needs of the times, and some of them were his own. One party was not prepared enough. In short, the car arrived at the airport, and he hadn't thought of making any movie yet.

When boarding the plane, Deborah forgot to change her shoes due to her haste. She was still wearing a pair of high heels, so she fell behind.Tan Jiabao and his party were the last ones to board the flight, and everyone was already waiting for them.Xu Guanwen shouted anxiously: "Lala, run, Lala, run..."

Tan Jiabao was startled suddenly. He who was thinking all the way seemed to have woken up. He patted Xu Guanwen and said loudly: "What were you talking about just now? Say it again, and make it clear!"

"Boss, what's the matter? I saw Lala falling behind, so I told her to run. Am I... wrong?" Xu Guanwen looked at Tan Jiabao inexplicably and said.

"Say that call again, hurry up!" Tan Jiabao said excitedly with bright eyes.

"Oh." Xu Guanwen seemed to understand something, and he continued to shout: "Lala, run! Lala, run!"

"Run Lala, run Lala, run Laura! Haha, thank you, Xu Guanwen! I finally know which movie I want to make." Tan Jiabao murmured, and suddenly jumped up excitedly and said: "We Shooting "Run Lola Run", "!" We decided to shoot "Run Lola Run" this time, and you made the first contribution!"

Xu Guanwen stood there at a loss, watching Tan Jiabao happily running to his seat, regardless of the people in the cabin who were all staring at this group of late and very strange Chinese.

Tan Jiabao finally thought of the German movie "Run Lola Run". "Run Lola Run" subverts Hollywood's consistent classic narrative mode, but adopts a three-stage pattern.This is the famous German director Tom Tykwer who shot this movie in 1998 when he was 34 years old. The potential of genius made many film critics predict that it will become Germany's Luc Besson, and he is regarded as the hero of German movies. hope.On the way to revive and revitalize the German film industry, he has indeed made an unparalleled contribution.

This movie is 30 years later, and the narrative technique is relatively novel and abstract. Whether the current audience can accept it, Tan Jiabao has already had a huge doubt in his heart.But because time did not allow him to think about other films, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and think about the filming plan of this film.

He first replayed the storyline of the film in his mind: In Berlin, Germany, Manny, the underworld leader, called his girlfriend Laura, and Manny told Laura that he had lost 10 marks.After 10 minutes, if the 10 marks are not returned, he will be executed by the underworld boss.In order to get [-] marks and rescue Manny, Luo La ran desperately within minutes.At the same time, Manny kept calling everywhere in the phone booth to borrow money.

At this time, the movie begins to show the three processes and three results of Lola running and Lola finding money to rescue Manny.

The first run: Lola failed to borrow money, Lola and Manny robbed the supermarket, Lola was shot dead by the police.Second run: Lola grabs money at the bank.Manny was hit and killed by an ambulance.The third run: Lola wins at the casino in desperation, and Manny finds the lost money.Lola and Manny become rich.

The story is as simple as that.But it is not easy to shoot, the film has about 1581 camera transitions, 71 minutes of sports shots, each shot lasts 2.7 seconds on average.Lola's three runs have completely different results due to a small difference in details, and the narrative method of "if... will" is brought into full play.The director needs to master the essence and rhythm of the whole movie proficiently, use the expressive techniques of the movie reasonably and skillfully, and perfectly interpret the profound connotation of the movie in the design of each paragraph.

Directing, photography, music, editing, cartoon production, location selection, actors and actresses, etc., these issues immediately surfaced again...

Filming this movie is undoubtedly a challenge for Tan Jiabao, and now he has accepted this challenge.
