Director John McTiernan waited for the applause led by Ronald to end and immediately began directing preparations for the next stunt shot.
Several stuntmen in charge of the explosion came over and placed plastic bags containing liquids in different places on the roof.
Ronald knew that there was gasoline in it, and all kinds of dangerous goods were in the hands of professionals. The arrangement was effective but not too dangerous. The stunt double was a member of the trade union, and there was no problem with his skills.
"What is this?" Bruce Willis stayed at the scene, holding Demi Moore in his arms and showing off his acting skills. A person from the special effects team came over and smeared a lot of plaster-like stuff on his body.
Then spread it with your hands.
"This is a fireproof plaster to prevent you from being burned by the flames exploding behind you when you jump."
"What is this?" Bruce Willis picked a little with his fingers and smelled it. It had a bit of a smell, but he knew it was to protect himself. He wiped it on himself in disgust, and then wiped it on Demi's body.
a little.
Before Demi Moore could flirt with him, Willis found his girlfriend, Demi Moore, making a hand gesture to producer Ronald, "What is this?"
"I don't know..." Ronald also panicked. What is this? Bruce Willis is the leading actor? How could he be allowed to shoot the scene of jumping off a building?
The movie he made is not a real action movie, it’s not Stallone’s style of punching the flesh. I chose Bruce Willis because of his temperament, not because of his strong action ability.
"What is this? Hey, John, Joel, what is this?" Ronald couldn't care less about saving the director's face. He walked over and asked the director John McTiernan loudly.
"This is the most exciting shot? What else could it be?" Director John McTiernan felt strange.
"I'm asking why Willis shot it himself, but a stunt double was required for such stunt shots."
"Ronald, Willis and I have already negotiated. He is willing to star in the explosion and jumping off the building scenes. He understands the risks involved, and he can also complete this kind of scene, allowing the director and starring actors to feel artistic, and also
remember?"
Ronald looked back at Demi Moore, who was walking over, and Bruce Willis, who had already applied fireproof material.
"Yes, I am willing to take it myself. It is nothing, a very simple shot. I often take this kind of shot on the TV station..."
"Ronald, what is this? You can't let Bruce take risks..." Demi Moore was anxious. This is a life-threatening shooting. She has always made movies and knows that the scenes in movies are real, not TV series.
That kind of shooting can fool you. Her boyfriend Bruce Willis still doesn't understand what he is about to face.
Bruce Willis is very satisfied with his girlfriend's concern for him, but he can't show a hint of timidity in front of Ronald. Demi likes her bravery, but she can't do it with Ronald, the most masculine person present (
In front of people other than himself, he loses his biggest attraction to Demi.
"Hey, I'm a professional action actor. Are you looking down on me, Demi? Relax, it's a small scene."
Ronald knew that this was director John McTiernan's trick. It was impossible for him not to know the danger of such an action, but Bruce Willis, who had never filmed such an action scene, was okay.
Ronald looked at McTiernan, his eyes shining brightly, staring into each other's eyes, "I don't like people playing tricks..."
"No one is doing any tricks, Ronald, I'm going to be filming soon," John McTiernan said, making a sign to leave.
"Ronald", Joel Silver came over and pulled Ronald. He didn't know much about filming, but he knew something was wrong from Ronald's angry eyes.
"We'd better wait and see first. If now...it will be detrimental to the safety of the shooting."
"Do you want me to be ruined like John Landis?" Ronald was pulled away, and he glanced at Silver. Landis, the director who filmed "The Twilight Zone" back then, just didn't pay attention to the safety of the filming.
, which eventually led to actor Vic Morrow being beheaded by a helicopter. Not to mention that all his family property was lost, and no major mainstream commercial production came to him again.
"Don't be like this. The special effects team I hired this time is the best in Hollywood. They are very professional. Although I don't know how to shoot, they still attach great importance to safety. No one wants to fall into the trap of John Landis.
That point”
Ronald shook his head, "You don't understand. The safety of special effects shots requires not only the arrangement of the team, but also the experience of the actors themselves. This is a shooting scene that requires redundancy. Willis has never acted in action scenes before. He
I don’t know much about this. I’m just worried about getting hurt if I fall.”
Ronald was in Xiangjiang, but he had seen many of Jackie Chan's martial arts filming. They showed no fear at the dinner table. In fact, they were doing it so as not to lose face during the filming. Every year, Jackie Chan's filming team has
death indicator.
But now that I don’t know about this arrangement in person in advance, and now I express my objection at the last moment, it will have an impact on the mentality of everyone from the director to the actors. Maybe it was fine originally, but if I think too much and hesitate, something will happen.
Ronald stood in the corner, biting his lip, and was in a dilemma. He had never been so miserably deceived on a set.
"Fortunately, we have enough insurance, don't be nervous... Even if something happens to him, the insurance company will pay, unlike Landis... Hey, what are you going to do?" Joel Silver was about to say
Continuing to explain, he suddenly noticed Ronald's glare, and he was frightened and stopped talking.

It will give her some courage, keep reading.
"Special effects department? Prepare for the countdown..."
"Camera No. 1?"
"full speed!"
"Camera Two?"
"full speed!"
…
Director John McTiernan starts calling the shots.
The pyrotechnicians of the special effects team began to prepare for the explosion.
"Action!"
With an order, Bruce Willis climbed onto the railing of the rooftop. He held the pillar with both hands and checked the fire hose tied to his body again. "God, don't let me die here..."
Then he looked back and shouted "Ah..."
Photographers from multiple cameras nervously grabbed the shirtless actor Bruce Willis to prevent him from running out of the frame.
"Boom! Boom!..." The special effects team began to blast multiple blasting points on the rooftop.
"Boom..." The explosion ignited the plastic bag containing the accelerant, and the fire was full of life. Waves of heat waves came from the corners of the rooftop.
Ronald was far away and felt the amazing thrust of the heat wave.
"It's broken..." Ronald felt that this special effect was too much. The thrust added to Bruce Willis's body might make him move forward more distance when he jumped from the building, deviating from the other two floors below.
An air mattress on a platform.
Ronald and others looked at Bruce Willis with regret in their hearts.
I saw Bruce Willis closing his eyes, gritting his teeth, shaking his legs, and jumped off the railing.
"SHXT!" Ronald yelled, and immediately rushed downstairs before the director told him to stop.
No matter what he was worried about, it turned out that after Bruce Willis jumped out of the rooftop, he was severely pushed forward by the blast of air.
"Bruce..." Demi Moore didn't know what was going on and ran after Ronald. Director John McTiernan knew something was wrong, so he also threw the headset and ran after him. Finally, the fat Joel
Silver, he was so out of breath from running that he almost fell down the stairs due to hypoglycemia.
"Huh...huh...wait for me..."
Silver, who was holding on to the wall and covered in sweat from fear, finally appeared on the platform below.
I saw that Bruce Willis hit the very edge of the air cushion. If he had missed it by one or two meters, he would have fallen out and died.
Ronald was in the inner circle, helping him up with the stunt team.
"Demi, Ronald, I told you earlier, look at my brave performance...hahahaha..."
Bruce Willis laughs his ass off.
"You scared me to death." Demi grabbed him, shaking with fear.
"It's okay, it's okay," Bruce Willis comforted his worried girlfriend, "I'm going to show you tonight who is the bravest man in Hollywood."
"Of course it's you." Demi Moore couldn't stand this, so her boyfriend became the most heroic person and gave her a passionate kiss.
"Well done!" All the people present applauded Bruce Willis.
"Phew, it's okay...Ronald, I didn't lie to you, it's okay...I'm pretty sure." Director John McTiernan, who was almost frightened to death, also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmph... I'm sure, why did you shoot the first scene of this scene?" Ronald glared, "All the subsequent jumps, explosions, and all dangerous shots will be done by the stand-in."
"What a diehard, Die Hard." Alan Rickman, who played the villain, came down with everyone and saw Bruce Willis' heroic performance. He was also very impressed and praised.
"What?" Ronald didn't hear clearly.
