The most impressive thing about the whole movie is the Omaha Beach battle at the beginning and the small town offensive and defensive battle at the end. Since Omaha Beach is a protected area and has changed over the years, the crew had to find a narrow beach in Ireland as an outdoor location.

The prop group and the art group are being arranged in a tight manner there, and it is still some time before completion.

So, Spielberg put the filming of the offensive and defensive battle in the town at the forefront. In some ways, this is also to take care of Ryan, after all, he still has to take care of his studies, etc.

If he misses classes for too long, he will encounter a lot of trouble this semester and his subsequent graduation.

Ryan is one of the investors and producers of this movie. It is normal to enjoy a certain degree of preferential treatment, and no one can say anything.

After Spielberg called to stop, the rumbling sound finally stopped. Ryan's first move was to take out the earplugs from the piercings, then sat directly on the ruins, took the water cup handed over by George, and drank a big sip.

His physical strength is definitely the best among these actors. The scene just now kept shifting and dodging back and forth, which consumed a lot, and it was inevitable that he would be a little tired.

Ryan was pretty good. Tom Hanks sat on the cement block next to him, wearing thick clothes, and almost sprayed out the water that drank into his mouth.

"God, this kind of life will last for two months. It's so terrifying." Tom Hanks finally breathed and took a breath away. He took a photo of the rifle that Ryan had placed beside him. "I really envy you, Ryan, you can end the scene soon and return to Los Angeles."

"Los Angeles?" Ryan said deliberately in an exclaimed tone, "Sunshine, beaches, and beauty, it's such a paradise life."

"What if you were placed on an island? Or a deserted island without people!" Tom Hanks asked suddenly without a head or tail.

"Desert Island?" Ryan scratched his head strangely.

"That's it. Ryan." Tom Hanks thought for a moment before saying, "After filming "Forrest Gump", I had an idea, um..."

"It has something to do with the desert island?" Ryan frowned and thought.

"That's right." Tom Hanks simply sat closer, "I'm thinking about a modern Robinson story, a workaholic with an impatient personality. Because of a plane failure, he was trapped on a deserted island. He lost the interaction between people. The only purpose of life was to survive. From then on, his outlook on life gradually changed..."

Ryan listened carefully to Tom Hanks, and he spoke for about five or six minutes. Although he had a rough idea, he lacked enough logic and the story was quite chaotic. The protagonist was a FedExpress and then a system architect. It can be seen that Uncle Baozi's idea of ​​the story is far from mature enough.

This is not surprising. Tom Hanks is a good actor, but not a good screenwriter or director...

"To be honest, Tommy." The two of them are old friends, and Ryan has nothing to be afraid of. "This story is a bit alternative, and your framework and logic are too confusing. And the protagonist you are talking about, there is no doubt. This will be a one-man show, and the actors need to have enough explosive performances."

"There are not many actors like Hollywood." Ryan added, "Of course, you are one of them."

"Haha, Ryan." Tom Hanks said very seriously, "I believe you are one of them."

"That Tommy, you mean..." Ryan spread his hands.

"Ryan, you know. I'm not the piece of material for the screenwriter." Tom Hanks stood up and brushed away the dust from his clothes. "If possible, can I take time to help me complete this story?"

"Of course." Ryan nodded and responded.

The filming continues. Ryan's scenes are gradually coming to an end, and his several rival scenes with Tom Hanks have brought a lot of cheers from the crew.

Especially the conversation between James Ryan and Captain Miller, the beautiful life in the lines and the joyful expression of Ryan's memories, which contrast the ruins of the battlefield, showing a different scene...

This was Ryan's last scene. After Spielberg shouted through, there was warm applause on the temporary set, both for Ryan's outstanding performance just now and for him to say goodbye.

Although there are not many scenes, the character James Ryan has many things worth exploring. He concentrates the image of the most ordinary soldier in the minds of Americans. He will be happy because of the past and cry because of sadness. He strives to stick to his post, complete tasks assigned by his superiors, and howls because of the fear of death. This is a very representative image in American movies.

Ryan is very confident in himself. In several rival scenes, his performance is not inferior to Tom Hanks.

It was with this confidence that he returned to Los Angeles and welcomed a fat New Zealand man who had been preparing for a long time at Jenkins Pictures.

The large conference room was covered tightly, and a full CG picture was slowly playing on the silver-white curtain in front of it. It was a scenic scene of Rivendell and Minastyris specially produced by Peter Jackson's studio, which was only a few minutes.

Although these clips can only be described as rough compared to previous life movies, Ryan has seen traces of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and the fat New Zealand man seems to be ready.

"Peter, can you tell me about the specific movie adaptation plan?"

Despite making a decision in his mind, after the clip was played and the lights were on again, Ryan still asked, "It's a matter of hundreds of millions of dollars in investment, and he had to be cautious. What if the fat man in this life has cramps in his head?

"My plan is to shoot into a trilogy according to the novel's pattern." Peter Jackson looked over and said after Ryan made a continued gesture, "Being as faithful as possible to the original work, make the necessary cuts. Frodo Baggins and the Ring Guardians will be the focus, and the simplification of the personalities of Legolas, Gimley and others..."

The fat man in New Zealand was talking nonsense. Obviously, he had planned the adaptation for a long time and had a general plan in his mind. If it weren't for copyright issues, he would have started preparations long ago.

Ryan did not feel any guilt. Not to mention anything else, he took action to integrate the copyright early, saving Peter Jackson a lot of time and energy wasted in his previous life due to copyright issues.

So, I'm still a good person! Ryan's face has become thicker.

"Do you have a preliminary budget? There is also a script?"

Hearing Ryan's words, Peter Jackson was excited. Since he had asked this, he must be very satisfied with himself. "My Vita Studio and I made rough estimates. Each movie is only $75 million, ah... I forgot, I plan to shoot the trilogy together, which can save a lot of unnecessary expenses. As for the script..."

He looked at Ryan, hesitating.

"So it, Peter." She looked at Julius Stewart, and she nodded, obviously approving the guy. Then, Ryan made a decision, "Peter, let your team do the script, and there is a budget..."

Peter Jackson was first delighted, then surprised, "Ryan, $75 million..."

Before he could finish, Ryan interrupted, "Peter, I'm offering a total of $300 million in the trilogy, and I may invest in a joint venture. I will give you as much power as possible and accept part of the investment from Vita Studio. From now on, I hope you and your team will devote all their efforts to this project."

"No problem! I promise!"

This was a complete surprise for Peter Jackson.

"Okay, Peter, I'm waiting to see your work results." Since the intention was reached, Ryan naturally showed off his boss's style.

After seeing off Peter Jackson, Ryan quickly drove to a nearby small theater, and a trial meeting would be held there later.

The production of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy is a time-consuming and labor-intensive project. Not to mention the long shooting, it is just a preliminary preparation. In Peter Jackson's plan, it will take at least one year.

Peter Jackson needs to set up a crew as soon as possible, and after Jenkins Film’s advance funds arrive, customize the sets, tame horses, prepare props, and select actors to find suitable locations. The shooting of such magical epic movies is even more troublesome than science fiction movies.

This is arguably part of the reason why Ryan doesn't want to be involved.

Moreover, after he talked with Peter Jackson, he found that the other party's ideas were roughly the same as those in the previous life's movies. It seems that this guy was not affected too much by the butterfly wings. Since this guy did a good job in his previous life, let's leave it to him to take charge.

The investment of 300 million US dollars is a considerable pressure for Jenkins Pictures today. Fortunately, the advance share of "Titanic" has been received, so there is no need to invest this money in one go. If the plan goes well, by the end of the century, you can even add some post-production funds to these trilogies.

Of course, if several major film companies are willing to share part of the investment like "Titanic", Ryan welcomes them with both hands. With these guys, if those clowns in their previous lives still jumped out and whined after the movie became popular, then they would have been considered powerful thugs.

There are some things, although his team has done the ultimate in integrating copyright, under the temptation of huge interests, some people will inevitably be bewitched.

The car stopped in front of the theater, and Ryan strode in, and saw Nicole and Jinslie walking around the vestibule, as if waiting a little anxiously.

"Has it started, Nicole?" he asked quickly.

"I'm waiting for you." Nicole rolled her eyes and pulled Ryan to walk towards the screening room.
Chapter completed!
