Chapter 1400 (2/2)
……
When Martin Scorsese got the copy, it was 9 p.m. us time.
He called a closely cooperated film company to find the copy of the Hong Kong version of Infernal Affairs in a humble corner of the warehouse one day ago.
Then Martin Scorsese sent his assistant to drive across Hollywood, get the copy from the other company, and then across the whole Hollywood to his own hands.
At this time, it was the morning after Chinese time. Muye image sent a DVD from Yanjing to Spielberg. After the express and special transportation of Taobao 9 logistics, it was sent to Spielberg by air and land in less than 24 hours.
Today's shooting place is not beautiful. It was supposed to shoot the pilots outside the airstrip. As a result, a drizzle started in the early morning and didn't mean to stop.
The whole crew is waiting at a rest place near the shooting site.
When Spielberg saw that the rain would not stop for a while, he said to Ning Hao, the deputy director in charge of the fight, ”Ning, the shooting in the morning seems to be in vain. You can help me to inform everyone that the staff should rest in place, and the actors can go back to the hotel first.”
Ning Hao nodded and hurriedly gave orders.
Spielberg called Leonardo and Tom Hanks, and said, ”if it's OK, why don't you go to my office and watch a movie?”
The production team has half a county Party committee hostel in this small county town in the mountainous area, with limited conditions, but even so, it still frees up several rooms for the production team to do office work. The production team's meeting, director's film review, are all in the office. Spielberg also has his own independent office, which is fully equipped.
Leonardo and Tom Hanks didn't know why Spielberg wanted them to go to the office to watch movies, but they knew that with Spielberg's professional level, it must not be leisure and entertainment, it must be related to work, so they agreed without hesitation.
When Spielberg, Leonardo and Tom Hanks came to the office, Martin Scorsese, who was far away in Hollywood, just got the copy. He took the copy and went to the basement of his villa. Here is a projection room specially made by him, which completely uses high-end cinema projection and audio equipment. For his big director, Only in this way can I feel the most.
However, Spielberg's three people, who are at the county Party committee's Guesthouse in the mountainous area of Yunnan Province, are much more humble. They can only watch the film with a small professional display and a DVD.
Martin Scorsese has never seen ”Infernal Affairs” or even understood the film. He has many common faults of Hollywood directors and actors. He always feels that the best films and filmmakers in the world are all in Hollywood, so he has a feeling of not seeing non Hollywood films and staff instinctively.
Leonardo and Tom Hanks didn't see the movie either. When they saw the Chinese characters on the screen, they asked Spielberg in surprise, ”is this a Chinese movie?”
Spielberg nodded and said, ”yes, you see yourself as an audience. Take a closer look at the film. If you have any opinions or ideas, we will talk after watching it.”
The two nodded their heads in succession.
There are a lot of Buddhism factors in the beginning of Infernal Affairs, which makes both Martin Scorsese in the United States and Leonardo and Tom Hanks in China not very interested, so at the beginning, all three of them have little interest.
At the beginning of the article, Zeng Zhiwei's black boss appeared in the temple, which also disappointed the three people.
Westerners are mostly Christians. Although they are not fanatical about religion, they are firm in their beliefs. Moreover, western culture has been strongly exported to the eastern world for a long time. As a result, Oriental people have long been used to seeing churches, gods, priests and even know many details about Christianity in European and American films and TV plays. However, the export of eastern culture to the West has always been weak In fact, when Westerners see Buddhist content in movies and TV plays, they are not willing to pay for it, or even have some resistance.
But the good news is that the three of them can bear to keep watching.
When Zeng Zhiwei said in front of the camera that he wished his little brothers a smooth ride in the police department, all three of them suddenly sat up straight.
The underworld actually put people in the police system? It's kind of interesting!
None of the three people thought it was interesting, and they began to be attracted by the movie. As Li Mu had analyzed to Li Ziwei before, the core setting of Infernal Affairs is genius level, which all the movie people had not thought of before. Infernal Affairs, which integrates a-story, b-story and ab story, is enough to make everyone's eyes bright!After the first two or three minutes of boredom and conflict, the next 100 minutes of the movie, these three people are all staring, extremely engaged!
when Chen Yongren, played by Liang Chaowei, was shot in the elevator, these three people were completely shocked. They never thought that a Chinese gangster movie could be so wonderful!
When Martin Scorsese saw this scene, his heart was deeply shocked. Although he was reluctant to admit it, the movie was really a masterpiece! The setting of the main line and the exquisite plot gave him great confidence! He believes that if he takes this talent setting to Hollywood, he will surely become a classic Hollywood gangster movie!
