Here, Ryan thoroughly saw the ambitious side of the DreamWorks Big Three, who bought six scrapped small warships.

In order to create the most spectacular and thrilling air raid scene, Michael Bay decided to detonate the 6 ships with 700 sticks of explosives, 2,000 feet of detonating cord and 4,000 gallons of gasoline. For safety reasons, the crew prepared thousands of Fire hoses and fire extinguishers were out of control, and everyone around was required to wear gas masks.

Director Michael Bay meticulously placed 12 wide-screen cameras, one of which was shot by him himself. This scene was composed of 30 stuntmen, 90 extras, 9 planes, a camera boat and countless special effects technicians. The co-constructed scene took only a short ten seconds in the planning, but it cost countless financial resources, manpower and time.

And Bombshell also showed his attainment in explosions. This huge scene was carried out at the same time, and all the plans went smoothly.

"Michael is an absolute genius when it comes to filming explosions."

Standing on the side of the top deck of the rented yacht, and after the smoke from the explosion had completely dissipated, Ryan put down the telescope and said to Nicole who was standing beside him, "But when it comes to dealing with love scenes, he's not even second-rate. superior."

"You think this movie will go wrong." Nicole naturally understood Ryan's voice.

"Have you read part of the script these days?"

After Nicole nodded, Ryan continued, "Since this movie is named Pearl Harbor, it is most appropriate to describe it as a war epic, but what I saw in the script is how the Japanese sneak attack acts as an American-style love triangle. The accompaniment of..."

"Ryan, it's fine for the two of us to talk in private." Nicole reminded him very seriously, "Although you have a good relationship with Stephen, we still have a competitive relationship with DreamWorks."

"Of course I know what to say and what not to say." Ryan made a reassuring gesture, "Besides, with Stephen producing, this movie may not be what I thought it would be."

Who can say for sure about things in the world, maybe Michael Bay's inspiration explodes and he will make a classic war masterpiece.

"However, when I met Michael this time, I felt that he had changed a bit." Nicole had a conversation with Bang Bei a few days ago.

"Success brings confidence or bloat."

Lift the bombshell,

Ryan thought of Transformers. He held the right to adapt early. This series is Michael Bay's life-saving work, if he still suffers two major failures in succession like in his previous life.

Of course, failure also brings lessons and lessons.

Such a popcorn masterpiece is the most suitable for Bombshell. In Ryan's plan, he is still the first choice for future directors. The charm of "Transformers" lies in the love and killing of Optimus Prime and Megatron. A good friend from Cybertron to Earth, as long as the logic works.

Otherwise, do you want Optimus Prime to struggle in the dark. Rediscover yourself? Not many Transformers fans will like it.

In fact, keeping Optimus Prime and Megatron as the protagonists, a considerable number of audiences will buy it, even if the North American market is weak. He can also go to the other side of the Pacific to make money, but he knows that this series has affected a whole generation on the other side.

The movie only needs to grasp one theme, the Autobots to protect the earth. Fight with the Decepticons! The sequel is that even if they were betrayed by humans, the Autobots fought with the Decepticons in order to protect the earth! The third episode, just for the needs of the box office, the director and the audience, the Autobots will continue to fight the Decepticons!

As for the two popular kings Optimus Prime and Megatron, they can be resurrected if they die, and they can continue to fight when they are resurrected.

In the cartoons and toy models, both sides have such well-known characters, just pull a few out in each episode and start playing, and then except for the protagonist, others can hang up or change their appearances. The biggest advantage of this is that it can promote Sales of peripheral products.

Thinking of the peripheral products, Ryan realized that he had neglected a little. The majority of the profits of this series, the copyright of the toy model, is in the hands of Hasbro.

"George."

Ryan called Mr. Bodyguard, and after whispering a few words to him, George took the encrypted satellite phone and dialed.

Probably seeing that Ryan had work to do, Nicole simply went back to the cabin to change into a swimsuit and went to the back of the yacht to swim in the sea.

Ryan picked up the binoculars and looked at the war scenes being filmed in the distance from time to time, and from time to time he looked at the beautiful women swimming in the sea like a mermaid. It was a lot of fun.

About half an hour later, George brought a fax from Los Angeles, which contained the recent situation of Hasbro.

Completely different from what Ryan imagined. In the past, toy manufacturers that could almost be tied with Mattel are not very good now. In 1997, they signed a toy sales agreement with Lucasfilm for "The Phantom Menace". , Unexpectedly, after the movie was released, the sales of peripheral products fell far short of the expected target, and the large amount of funds invested by Hasbro has not yet recovered the cost.

Maybe next year, Hasbro can also be a target of its own?

Whether it is the Harry Potter series or the animated films produced by several animation studios, toys and dolls will be involved. If you can have a closer connection with Hasbro, the benefits will be completely different.

There are also game characters from Blizzard Entertainment, and dolls can also be made.

Forget it, Blizzard is going to be sold in its own plan, and if it doesn't show enough sincerity, how will it be exchanged for the support of the Wall Street Jewish Group in the future?

But they hold a lot of shares that they want to get.

Moreover, sharing the benefits with the vampires on Wall Street is a necessary choice. Even Gai has compromised with them. Can he fight against them?

Cooperation is the right way. Those who do not know how to cooperate and share have long been eliminated into the pile of old papers of history.

"George, remember to tell Scott to keep an eye on Hasbro."

…………

When the holiday finally came to an end, Ryan once again came to Queenstown, New Zealand after sending Nicole away.

"Peter, I swear, I won't leave New Zealand before Aragorn's part is over!" Seeing Peter Jackson's first face, Ryan swore a promise.

"Wow, Peter took out the authority of the director, and even Ryan bowed his head." Elijah Wood appeared out of nowhere, wrapped in messy filaments, standing next to the camera and joking, "I can imagine Ryan getting pissed, our budget was reduced, and everyone on the crew had to eat mashed potatoes from lunch on."

"Ilya, what are you doing?" Ryan pointed to the tightly-wrapped filaments and responded rudely, "Why do you look like you're wearing the largest condom in the world?"

"Damn." Elijah Wood complained to the big fat New Zealander, "Peter, can you finish the Shilo scene soon? I'm going crazy."

The Shi Luo in his mouth was the terrifying big spider.

"Actually, I'm more curious." Sean Austin, who played Sam, also came over. "Ilya, how did you solve the problem of going to the bathroom?"

Elijah Wood's whole body is tightly wrapped, which is indeed very curious.

Ryan has just come to the crew, and according to the plan, it is not yet his turn to play. He is mostly observing. Most of the exterior scenes of the crew have ended, and now they are shooting more in the studio.

Not long after lunch, Elijah Wood was freed from the spider silk. The first thing he did after removing his makeup was to use Legolas-like quick and agile skills to rush into the bathroom, causing a lot of laughter. Voice.

Then, before the next shot, Peter Jackson had a donkey pulled into the studio, causing most of the actors, including Ryan, to be surprised that he was going to add to the scene.

But is there something to do with the donkey in The Lord of the Rings?

Countless images flashed through Ryan's mind, but no relevant information was found.

"Hey, that's my important prop, don't frighten it." Peter Jackson warned the curious cast and crew around, "This is what I encountered last time I went to Wellington, and it cost a lot of money to get it from the original. The owner bought it back."

"What did you buy it for?" Ryan was very, very curious.

"You'll know right away." Peter Jackson showed his loud voice, "Everyone is quiet, the sound engineer is ready, live recording!"

Then, the eye-popping thing happened, every time the donkey barked, Peter Jackson would let the sound engineer replay it, the sound effects were almost turned on to the maximum, and the deafening donkey bark resounded throughout the studio. The sound attracted a lot of onlookers from the extras outside the studio.

This can be regarded as the biggest spectacle since the filming of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

Gradually, Ryan heard some doorways. Although these voices had not been modified in the later stage, they felt more and more familiar to him.

It seems... it seems to be the roar of those flying beasts that the Nazgul rides.

Ryan felt that his speculation should be very reliable, because the voices of the two were equally unpleasant.

"You're right, I think the donkey's voice is most similar to the voice of the flying beast I imagined."

At the end of the recording, Peter Jackson proved Ryan's conjecture, "I bought it back for a lot of money just to dub the Nazgul's mount."

"Okay, Peter." Ryan fanned his ear, as if to drive away the amplified donkey's bark, "If you want to record next time, please let me know in advance? I can hide in the queen. Go to town."
