The Best Entertainment Era

Leaving the front desk of Burger King, Amanda Seyfried was carrying a large tray with fast food such as burgers, French fries and fried chicken legs, and walked towards a place with few people.

Ronan was on the phone before, and as soon as he hung up the phone, he saw Amanda Seyfried approaching, and hurried to meet him, taking the tray in her hand.

wait for me.

Amanda Seyfried said something, ran back to the front desk, and soon came over with another tray.

You want so much? Ronan took it again and put it on the table.

Amanda smiled and said, I'm hungry.

Ronan pointed to the tray on the table: Hurry up and eat.

Amanda picked up a hamburger and asked, Where are your two bodyguards? Do you want to get them some?

David and Finch? Ronan said, Don't worry about them.

The bodyguards will take care of their own meals.

I ate. Amanda grabbed the burger and took a big bite.

Ronan was also polite and picked up another burger.

This kind of Western-style fast food is cheap and easy to fill your stomach, and the taste is not bad.

Thinking back to my previous life, when I was a child, I was able to eat a meal at KFC and McDonald's, that was a very extravagant behavior.

As the first Western-style fast food chains to enter the East, KFC and McDonald's have undergone earth-shaking changes with their positioning in the West.

Fortunately, it didn't take many years for these two fast food restaurants to return to their true colors.

Amanda is small and thin, but she can eat very well. A hamburger can be eaten in threes and fives.

Then, she picked up the fries again and ate them.

In the middle, I also took time to drink happy water.

Not sure if it was a developing relationship, but Ronan discovered that Amanda Seyfried could eat more than him.

a hamburger,

A large portion of french fries, a fried chicken leg, and half a glass of happy water entered Amanda's little mouth in just ten minutes.

It's unscientific to be so edible and yet so thin.

Ronan just ate half of the hamburger and half of the French fries, and couldn't eat anymore.

Amanda on the opposite side was wiping her oily mouth with a tissue, and noticed Ronan's slightly surprised gaze, and smiled embarrassedly: I was too nervous in the morning, so I didn't eat much.

Is it enough? Ronan pushed his share of chicken legs to her.

Amanda quickly waved her hand: I'm full, really. She quickly pushed the chicken legs back to Ronan: Mom usually doesn't let me eat these, saying that actors should keep fit and eat less. Can't get enough.

Ronan said: You are growing your body, you must ensure nutrition.

Actually, I belong to the kind of person who has a hard time gaining weight. Amanda seems to have done some research in this area: I have specifically observed that I eat a lot more than my peers, but I have never been fat.

Ronan nodded: You are thin.

Amanda was a little embarrassed again: Ronan, I treat you to dinner, and you have to accommodate me. She grabbed her curly blond hair and said, I don't have much money in my hand, so I can only afford hamburgers and fries. strip.

It's already very good. Ronan picked up a French fries, stuffed it into his mouth, and said, It tastes very good.

It's French fries. Amanda knew Ronan was comforting her.

Ronan swallowed the fries and said, But the fries were bought by Amanda Seyfried, and they taste different.

Hearing this, Amanda Seyfried seemed to have been hit by something, and was suddenly a little dazed, and then she reacted again, with a smile from the heart on her face.

She smiled more and more happily: Ronan, if you like it, I will invite you next time.

Ronan smiled and said, I'll treat you next time.

That's fine. Amanda thought the two were friends, and she was not polite, and said, I don't know when I can save the money to invite you again.

Ronan was surprised: What about your salary?

Amanda said: It's all at my mother. Mom... She was somewhat dissatisfied: My mother is very strict with me. If I didn't invite you to dinner today, I couldn't come out alone. My pocket money is full every day. Quota, just enough to spend.

Ronan pushed the chicken leg in front of Amanda again, and Amanda picked it up subconsciously, took a bite of the chicken leg, and said, The money for my treat is the reward for performing in the community theater, it's not much, so I can only treat you Eat fast food.

Thank you. Ronan said sincerely, This is the best meal I have had this year.

Only then did Amanda realize that she ate Ronan's chicken drumsticks, and said embarrassedly, I didn't notice.

Ronan waved his hands: It's okay, I'm full, you can eat.

Amanda silently gnawed on the chicken leg, feeling the taste was particularly delicious, swallowed the food in her mouth, and said: Mom takes care of a lot, from pocket money to making friends, so I still don't have friends of the same age.

She complained a little bit: The money I earn never reaches me. My mother always says that I am too young to have too much money in my hands, otherwise it is easy to learn bad things. I am fifteen years old.

Ronan could see the good intentions of a mother. Compared with people like Macaulay-Culkin's parents, Mrs. Seyfried can be said to be a very competent mother.

Poor parents in the world.

I am afraid that many people can only realize this when they become parents.

Ronan looked at the girl on the opposite side, with a bit of innocence in his agility, and said: The circle of Hollywood is very complicated, your mother is protecting you.

I know. Amanda is neither stupid nor rebellious: It's just too restrictive, and it's a bit distressing.

Ronan added: Your mother loves you very much, I can see that.

Amanda responded and went to deal with the chicken legs again.

After eating the chicken legs, Ronan handed over a tissue, and Amanda wiped her mouth next, and asked, Ronan, if I have something I don't understand in the future, can I call you?

Yes. Ronan said with a smile, However, you must tell your mother first.

Amanda grabbed the cup and took another sip of happy water: If Mom doesn't have an answer, I'll call you.

Ronan said, No problem.

After eating together, Ronan called David and asked him to drive Amanda back.

Speaking of which, Mrs Seyfried seemed to really trust him.

Ronan could tell that Amanda Seyfried also believed in him, and probably regarded him as a friend.

In the future, I can also help with those things that are easy to do.

Of course, if you go to Ronan and ask for important roles such as heroine or supporting actress, this kind of help will definitely not help.

Ronan knew the seriousness.

After sending Amanda Seyfried away, Ronan returned to Warner Studios to find Paul Anderson and Samuel Hadida to continue the preparations for Resident Evil.

Paul Anderson had been to Japan before and had a 5-day discussion with Capcom. Capcom also believed that Anderson was very suitable for directing Resident Evil and even recognized his change. The lesson learned from the first game adaptation film Evil Kingdom believes that the rules of the game can be added and strengthened, but the rules cannot be broken.

As he said in Berlin, this film will be the prequel to the game that gamers have been waiting to see, so that fans of the game and audiences who have never heard of the game will be attracted by the film.

In addition, Ronan focused on the zombie issue with Paul Anderson and Samuel Hadidah.

In this film, the concept of zombies will not be explicitly expressed.

Of course, anyone who has seen those infected with the T virus will understand that these living dead are zombies.

A zombie with a different setting than George Romero.

In some ways, this film has the nature of soft science fiction.

Today, it is impossible for the crew to repeat the appearance of zombies 20 years ago.

In that era, a large number of movies imitating Dawn of the Dead and The Avoidance of the Dead emerged, and blood dripping became the inherent mode of horror films at that time.

In order to achieve the scare effect that makes people's scalp tingle, the crew must make changes that are more suitable for this era.

Ronan hired the international animation special effects company, which was nominated for an Oscar for Four Years of the Blood and also worked on The Surface of the Black Hole, Elizabeth and Gladiator.

It is also a second-rate special effects company in the industry.

Realism is what the crew is after, so the special effects company has to create the terrifying appearance of being infected by the T virus, because this virus is inhaled, passes through the system of the body, and is discharged from the eyes, mouth and nose. A large number of medical textbooks study the effect of biological erosion on the skin, which is different from traditional decay.

Moreover, the T virus will quickly act on the human system, so the appearance and degree of the infected people are also different.

Ronan took great pains on the zombies. In order to make their movements smooth and natural, he even invited Warner Van Eden, the dance instructor of Swing Frenzy to act as the zombie choreographer of the film.

To be precise, it is a zombie action guide.

Ronan thought carefully, and after discussing with Paul Anderson and Samuel Hadidah, he decided that the extras playing the zombies needed to be directed by action, because he didn't want the zombies in the film to act ridiculously.

Warner-Van-Eden himself also confirmed that he would join the ranks of zombies during filming.

The actors who play the zombies are also carefully selected, not ordinary extras, but ordinary actors with professional dance training.

Using well-trained dancers can make the zombie's movements subtle to the smallest tremor.

This crew also needs to go to Europe to shoot. The location surveyors have already set off. In order to find suitable locations, they have searched all over Europe, from Latvia and Ukraine to the early bunkers in Britain and Germany. These bunkers need a lot of decoration, because they are all A product of World War II.

When the film is creating the script, the main creators will have a good idea of ​​what the film will look like, and in the post-production production, it must be adjusted within a limited range.

Ronan's request for this film was simple.

The fighting is clean and neat, the script can generally be justified, and Alice's modeling skills should make people shine.
