The Growth of the Richest Man

Movies with only one actor, in fact, there are many classic movies, such as "Horror Live", "Desert Island", "Moon", "Terrorist Cruise", "127 Hours", "Buried Alive", "I Am Legend" ", "Sniper Phone Booth", "Everything Is Lost", and so on.

This time, the film Zhang Yong is about to shoot is another well-known low-budget film - Buried Alive.

The film "Buried Alive" tells the story of an American truck driver who was attacked in Iraq and woke up to find himself buried alive in a coffin. He had to use the limited props around him to find a way to escape. Spielberg's male lead Paul (actually the only character in the movie) doesn't want to die yet, but when he wakes up in a 6-foot-underground coffin with no idea why he's here, including When who arranged all this, he realized that death was so close to him. Buried with Paul were cellphones, lighters, flashlights, glow sticks, pocket knives, flasks and pens. Paul slowly pieced together what he knew would at least help him figure out where he was in such a maddeningly small space. The phone has a pathetic weak signal and is running out of battery. The thin oxygen supply has become the most terrifying enemy Paul has to face, forcing him to race against time in such a tight space and strive for every chance to see the sun again.

Zhang Yong has already written the script for this movie. But the script is only one aspect. On the other hand, the performance of the only actor is also very important. But I have to say that an actor who can be a director must be a good actor. Spielberg's understanding of this script is very profound. He completely conveys the panic, despair and spirit of a dying person. Negative emotions such as frenzy are portrayed. Originally, Zhang Yong wanted to use a tragic way to end the movie in an ideal state, but Spielberg had some heroic tendencies and suggested changing the script to eventually Paul was successfully rescued through his own efforts. The plot of the. Zhang Yong thought about this change carefully and adopted it.

The preparation of props for the movie, because this time there are professional props from Andrew Morgan's team, so the speed is very fast, and within three days, it is already fully prepared. In fact, if it weren't for preparing a professional and safe coffin, the preparation of props could be faster, but in this movie, only one person will perform, and if Spielberg is allowed to perform alone, safety must be guaranteed, after all Although Spielberg is in good health, he is already in his 60s after all, and Spielberg's influence is indeed huge, and no mistakes are allowed.

The filming was very fast, and it took only one day to shoot. After checking the shooting effect, the crew took another day to make up some shots, and in two days, all the shots have been shot. Post-production is the work of Andrew Morgan's team, and the production is still very difficult. Special sound effects, special radio and television effects processing, and time-disordered editing are all extremely difficult. So the post-production of the film took a whole month to complete.

The promotion of the movie is also very important for the impact on the box office. The box office of "Buried Alive" in the previous life was only 20 million US dollars. One of the big reasons was that the production team's publicity ability was not enough. But this time, this movie is different. This movie was starred by Spielberg himself, and Spielberg himself represents the best distribution channel in Hollywood, so in terms of movie distribution channels and publicity, There is no problem at all. According to the plan, the film will be released in early April. The reason for not choosing to release on April 1 is to avoid April Fool's Day. And Zhang Yong's opinion is that the film will be released on April 4, 2008, China's Qingming Festival, because this kind of burial film, it is quite appropriate to be released on Qingming Festival - of course, Americans do not have Qingming Festival, but not Obstructing the April 4 release.

. . . . . .

It's just that Zhang Yong did not participate in the post-production promotion and distribution of "Buried Alive". After the film production was completed, Zhang Yong returned to China in early March because he had to return to China to participate in the distribution of the film "Tangshan Earthquake".

The filming of "Tangshan Earthquake" was very hard work. During the filming period, there was still a Spring Festival, but because Zhang Yong knew that the time was very fast, so under his supervision, the original seven-day Spring Festival holiday, the crew only just There was a total of three days off on New Year's Eve, the first day of the new year, and the second day of the new year, and then from the third day of the new year, normal shooting began again. Although the crew has some opinions on Zhang Yong's intensified filming, but seeing that Zhang Yong is also filming a movie abroad by himself~www.readwn.com~ there is no holiday. In contrast, they still have time to take three days off. , there is still time to reunite with family, there is nothing to say.

The filming of the film is very fast. In order to further speed up the progress, some post-production links are carried out at the same time as the filming of the film. For example, the most difficult part is to make an 8-minute earthquake damage scene. For this work, Zhang Yong used the price of 100 million yuan to entrust Meditation Technology produces one of the best, most realistic and shocking shots. Gong Min of Meditation Technology Co., Ltd. did not fail to accept the trust. The whole company worked overtime together, and also invited a large number of professional special effects production personnel from home and abroad to help to make this destruction scene. The realism of the production is almost the same as the effect of shooting at the epicenter, and many houses are destroyed, in fact, after using real houses for real-life shooting, special effects are processed.

Of course, Gong Min not only spent the 100 million yuan given by Zhang Yong, but also spent an additional 30 million yuan on Meditation Technology. Zhang Yong is a pain in the flesh. The money he spent on meditation is his own money, isn't it? But seeing the results that Gong Min handed over to him, Zhang Yong still felt that the money was worth it.

Anyway, the "Smart: Ghost Recording" filmed in Hollywood brought Zhang Yong more than 700 million income. At present, Zhang Yong is really able to come out of this money.

Thanks to the hard work of the crew of "Tangshan Earthquake" and the behind-the-scenes technical staff, the film "Tangshan Earthquake" was completed in early March. Because of its strong public welfare nature, people from the film review department , but the film was formally reviewed, and it was passed directly. Therefore, Zhang Yong also returned to China at the right time to start the distribution and promotion of the film.
