Darkwalker of the Sky World
Chapter 80: Film about
Zhou Zhen is a facialized character in this movie, so there is no need for character analysis at all, as long as it is cool enough and vigorously playing is enough.
However, a newcomer often distorts his actions in front of the camera and looks at the camera unconsciously.
When Zhou Zhen started as a background wall, he often couldn't help but want to look at the camera, but he controlled it well every time.
It was not difficult to just pretend to be a cold posture, Zhou Zhen completed the task very well.
In the past, everyone didn't think that, now seeing Zhou Zhen's performance, they all think that his image is too suitable for acting in a movie.
That Jamie King, a former supermodel and one of the hot stars, has recently treated Zhou Zhen differently.
Of course it is not the love of men and women. She is the mother of two children. She just likes to tease Zhou Zhen, a little wolf dog.
After several days of shooting, I finally arrived at Zhou Zhen's protagonist scene.
Before shooting, Miller told Zhou Zhen about the rhythm of the lens. It was very particular about where to look at the lens and what kind of expression he would use to look at the lens.
Especially for supporting roles, there is no time to give the audience time to accept, so the limited shots, how the emotions progress, are all particular about it.
As for the play, it was originally designed by Zhou Zhen, Stallone, and Remy, and Miller does not need to worry about it.
Playing the role of ZZ in Rambo's mood, Zhou Zhen hardly needs acting.
The action scenes are clean and neat, and the play is brilliant.
It is estimated that Zhou Zhen only took half a day to finish the first scene of the day. Apart from making up the facial expressions and putting on makeup on the face, he almost didn't waste the shots.
At noon, Stallone came over and nodded to Xiao Liang's assistant who was sitting next to Zhou Zhen. He immediately took his lunch box and went to other places knowingly.
"Zhou, are you interested in participating in other movies? Not a small supporting role, but a main role."
"Sylvester, let's talk about salary first!"
Stallone smiled in surprise, and said, "I thought you were not short of money."
It's been a month since Zhou Zhen entered the crew. Before filming started, he and Stallone and the others designed martial arts moves. After filming started, he needed to have meetings every day, and he was familiar with it for a long time.
They also knew that Zhou Zhen's family was not a lack of money.
Zhou Zhen smiled and said, "Because of too many choices, I have not determined my future direction. However, I hope you can use the pay to convince me."
Stallone laughed, thought about it, and said: "I'm planning to make two movies, both of which have roles suitable for you. If I can, I hope I can decide it now."
Zhou Zhen looked at him without speaking, Stallone didn't know why, it was pleasing to see the young man in front of him.
He didn’t choose to sell it, but said frankly: “A movie is the third part of this movie, starring me and the governor. You can play the third role with a pay of 500,000. The other movie is “The Expendables”. "In the fourth movie, you can take the role of Jet Lee, but for that movie, I can only pay you 200,000 pieces."
Zhou Zhen knows the reason. Stallone is only the starring role in "Escape of the Golden Cicada 3", and he is not only the starring role, the director, but also the producer of "The Expendables 4".
One is someone else’s movie, it doesn’t matter how much the film is paid, the other is invested by yourself, of course, the less money you give, the better.
Of course Zhou Zhen knows that the price can be discussed, and after thinking about it, he said, "If it is after tax, I would be willing to follow. I don't need a substitute for all non-dangerous action scenes...you consider it."
Taxes in the United States are very high, especially when income exceeds six figures, half of it must be taxed.
Zhou Zhen is not an American and does not even have a green card. It is very troublesome to pay taxes, but he is most afraid of trouble.
Stallone just pondered for a while, and said: "I agree in principle. I let the crew draw up the specific contract terms. There may be some discrepancies in the specific contract amount."
The so-called discrepancies are probably for tax evasion or for money laundering.
These Zhou Zhen don't care, as long as he is not involved.
The contract must also be the pre-tax amount. It's quite exciting to think that the salary for a movie is one million dollars.
Stallone was willing to pay this money, except for Zhou Zhen's great skill and good image, I am afraid that the main reason was that he had just merged with him in the first drop of blood.
Although he didn't know, he felt a kind of affection for Zhou Zhen.
Zhou Zhen readily stretched out his hand. "Then cooperate happily."
Stallone smiled and took his hand. "I know you are proficient in legal terms and don't need a lawyer, but when signing a contract, you should still find a lawyer to witness it."
"Okay, I will look out for a lawyer."
After Stallone left, Xiao Liang came over. "Why is Stallone looking for you?"
"He invited me to play a role in "The Expendables" and "Escape From The Shell 3". Zhou Zhen did not hide it, and asked: "Brother Xiaoliang, isn't this "Escape From The Shell 2"? Why is this movie not finished yet, Is the third part of the project approved?"
There was a trace of embarrassment on Xiao Liang's face, and he said to Zhou Zhen: "You also know that the main funding for this movie comes from China, which is considered a special film. Otherwise, how could I be the first protagonist."
Zhou Zhen finally understood it. Although Xiao Liang is well-known in China, who knows him in Hollywood!
A movie, let Stallone play him, it's a shame.
But this kind of thing is hard to ask, and it is easy to offend people. So when Xiao Liang said this, he understood thoroughly.
In the minds of Lionsgate, this movie is not the "Escape from the Shell" series at all. No wonder all parties are dealing with errands.
Zhou Zhen said with Kevin's temperament: "Brother Xiaoliang, you brought me here. This opportunity is also because of you. No matter what I am doing in the future, you will be my brother."
Xiao Liang's acting skills may not be good, but he is absolutely all-sided and exquisite.
He smiled and patted Zhou Zhen on the shoulder and said: "We are fellow villagers, and we are considered family friends. What can we do if we can help you take a journey."
Counting from the mother of two people, it can indeed be regarded as a family relationship, but if it is a family relationship, then the family relationship is too cheap.
Zhou Zhen smiled and nodded. "Filming is just a hobby for a while, if you have such a chance, I will try it first. It's really famous, and I'm your brother too."
In front of Zhou Zhen, Xiao Liang was very open-minded, but when he looked back, he couldn't help feeling sour.
He has such a high popularity that Stallone didn't look for him, but he took a fancy to Zhou Zhen. This kid is very lucky.
In particular, he brought it by himself, so who makes sense?
Zhou Zhen also understood Xiao Liang's mentality, and it was a bit uncomfortable for anyone to put such things aside.
However, "Escape from the Shell 3" and "The Expendables 4" are both sequel movies, and there are global action stars like Stallone and Schwarzenegger to attract popularity. There is no need for Xiaoliang to add icing on the cake.
On the contrary, they need characters with real skills like Zhou Zhen to add new elements to the film.
A week later, the shots of ZZ played by Zhou Zhen were all finished. Zhou Zhen's performance can not be said to be outstanding, but it definitely did not slow down.
Especially his martial arts moves are very cool, which hides his shortcomings in acting.
Although acting has experience to follow, most of them depend on talent.
Zhou Zhen has no academic experience, but he now has the emotions of six people and his temperament can be mobilized at will.
The melancholy Jiang Hao, the cowardly Ma Haohan, the evil Cyrus, the upright Kevin, the gloomy and strong Rambo, and himself.
With so many personalities fused together, and mastering the performance in front of the camera, ordinary characters can cope with it.
Even, in many cases, it can give people an amazing feeling.
His filming is over and he can't leave yet, because he is the action director of the crew.
It was delayed until the end of November, when the crew was officially completed.
Zhou Zhen came to the United States in early October and stayed here for almost two months.
During this period of time, he was also very happy to play. In addition to digesting the pain caused by the previous world and enhancing his sense of belonging in the main world, he has never entered the new world.
On November 22, he received a call from Stallone, and then called a contract lawyer introduced by the crew and came to Lionsgate.
Both films are investments by Lionsgate. In order to get involved in the remuneration, Zhou Zhen has secretly reached an agreement with Stallone, and the remuneration for both films is one million.
Of course, Zhou Zhen will deposit the extra part of the film's salary in an overseas account.
Lionsgate did not accept it at the beginning. Even if they accept it, they are only willing to bear the pay of "The Expendables". They think Zhou Zhen's pay is too high.
However, when Zhou Zhen was filming 2, he got along well with the producers and staff of Lionsgate, and there was no problem with the filming, and his performance was even good.
Under Stallone's tough attitude, Lionsgate still compromised.
One million dollars is just a small amount of money for the investment in these two films. In order to win Stallone, they can only agree to it.
On the day when the contract is signed, most of the terms have actually been negotiated. There are more than two hundred terms for how long the grade is, when to start the machine, what treatment, and what requirements.
Zhou Zhen did it by himself, and only on the day of signing the contract did he find a lawyer to help him notarize.
The contract was successfully signed, and the "Expendables 4" in the two films has not yet formed a team, but just started to write the script.
The script of "Escape from the Shell 3" will also be revised, which greatly increases the drama of the role of ZZ played by Zhou Zhen.
Zhou Zhen is still getting the old script, let him figure out the character of the character first, and use it for character construction.
The crew is expected to start filming in late January, and there are still two months left.
Of course, Zhou Zhen is not willing to stay in the United States forever.
The contract was signed, and he also called his mother.
His mother heard that he had one million copies, and she didn't believe it at all, she just urged him to go home quickly.
The ticket is the day after tomorrow, and it's okay for these two days, Zhou Zhen finally decided to earn some more energy points.
If you don’t make any money, the system will shut down...
