Chapter 768 You are angry because I want to kill you

"Michael Bay is an outstanding director. His focus on big scenes and small details always amazes me. "Transformers" is an extremely exciting and successful movie."

As soon as he got out of the car, Ryan was stopped by a group of Chinese entertainment reporters. When asked by the reporter why Michael Bay continued to serve as director, he said a few simple words, "I initially hoped that the Transformers series was full of ubiquitous humor and at the same time solemn and serious. Michael Bay did this and gave the Transformers series more possibilities."

This is a factory that is about to be demolished near Shanghai Disneyland. It is a carefully selected location by Disney Far East Branch.

Walking into the abandoned factory that served as the temporary set, Ryan, led by the staff, quickly walked into a dilapidated and huge factory building, which was filled with shooting equipment such as blinds and cameras, and many staff members were busy back and forth.

"Hi, Michael."

Carefully avoiding the cables on the ground, Ryan found the explosion bay, "Is the shooting going smoothly?"

“It’s more troublesome than expected.”

Michael Bay shook hands with him and looked at a staff member of China Film Group not far away, "Our communication is not very smooth, the ideas between the two parties are too different, and I don't understand why many of the ideas between me and the crew cannot be implemented or filmed normally?"

The addition of many Chinese shots is naturally for box office considerations. However, this kind of movie that is explosive and played in Shanghai may touch the sensitive nerves of a department with super large scissors, so Ryan specially contacted China Film Group, which is a Chinese distributor of the film, and they sent experienced personnel to assist the crew in filming in China.

China Film Group is very concerned about this matter. After all, "Transformers" has set a series of box office records in China, making the publisher a big profit.

"What's your plan blocked?" Ryan asked curiously.

"After I came to Shanghai, I realized that this city was completely different from what I thought." Michael Bay looked in the direction of Lujiazui. "It looks no different from New York and Los Angeles, so I thought that since there are Decepticons here, why don't they destroy several landmark buildings, such as the East..."

"Pearl of the East?" Ryan asked.

"Yes, that tower." Michael Bay showed his essence, "I think if this tower is blown up in the video, it will definitely be very impactful."

"Then you don't think the video will be released in China." Ryan shook his head, "Michael, give up these ideas."

"Why?" Michael Bay obviously couldn't understand, "Hollywood destroyed the Golden Gate Bridge, destroyed Manhattan, destroyed the White House and Capitol Hill, and even destroyed the entire North America. It was just a movie, not really about blowing it up."

“The national conditions are different.”

This problem was also unclear to the explosion. Ryan said directly, "Okay, give up your temporary ideas and shoot according to our original plan."

"Okay." Michael Bay shrugged. "You're the boss."

After patting Michael Bei's shoulder, Ryan left the factory again, entered the makeup trailer and walked back after finishing makeup. He did not continue to communicate with Michael Bei, and went directly to the actor's temporary rest area.

"Hi, Ryan."

"Hi, Colin."

He waved to Alessandra Ambrosho. The Chinese actress took the initiative to reach out and said openly, "Hello, Mr. Jenkins."

"Hello, Miss Gao." Ryan held it gently and responded casually, "Welcome to "Transformers" again."

Compared to the few scenes that only accompanied Alessandra Ambrosho in the used car market in the first part, her role in the second part has increased a lot, which is the direct reason why Sam and Mikaela appeared in China.

This is also to take care of the Chinese market, which can only be described as horror.

In this factory, the plot of Sam and two girls being captured by Decepticons. In many scenes, three of them don’t have to appear. The crew is shooting the background of CGI, and it is the scene where the actors need to come on stage. The two actresses just need to scream at the top of their voices.

In contrast, Ryan needed to do various actions towards the air. Fortunately, he got used to this kind of shooting in the first part. After nearly ten consecutive shots of the air, he gradually regained his feelings.

China Film is really very powerful, and it actually contacted the crew with a Z-8 as the prototype of the surfboard. The crew not only cooperated with the US side, but also cooperated with the Chinese side.

“no!no…”

On the stage in front of the camera, Ryan tried his best to make a terror towards the air, as if the Decepticon who wanted to cut his head was near, "Brain, what do you want my brain to do? Wait..."

"Wait, I know you're angry, I know you're angry." Ryan stared directly above and said to the long recording microphone, "You're angry because I want to kill you, but this is a misunderstanding..."

He suddenly accelerated his speech, as if he didn't say it now, he wouldn't have a chance to say it again in the future. "If someone wants to kill me, I won't be happy. I think... we have a full chance to improve our relationship and eliminate the misunderstandings between us..."

"It only takes five seconds..." Ryan's speech was faster, "Hey hey hey hey hey, let it stop first!"

After Michael Bey behind the camera shouted to stop, Ryan did not leave, but sat on the stage, waiting for the crew to rearrange the scene and the two actresses to be in place. Since many fireworks have been arranged in advance, the crew started shooting again after about ten minutes.

This time the filming was not difficult. After Michael Bay's assistant shouted to start, Ryan shouted loudly, "Michala, run! Run! Go to Bumblebee!"

He crawled up while shouting, and in the constant explosion of Mars, he hugged his head and ran out of the factory along the scheduled route until he left the camera range, and then stopped and looked back.

The shooting in the factory did not stop, and the sparks were as flashing as the gorgeous fireworks in the previous life. After the two actresses also left, larger-scale explosions appeared. However, these explosions seemed to be full of power, but in fact they did not have much destructive power.

The explosive shots shot in real scenes are undoubtedly more impactful and can save expensive CGI production costs.

There were not many shots in the factory, and it was over after only two days. This abandoned factory was basically demolished by the explosion. The unit that originally wanted to demolish would definitely save some demolition costs.

Afterwards, the crew held the first press conference after filming in China in the banquet hall of the Hilton Hotel in Jing'an District.

The sensation caused by this series in China was huge. When the press conference was held, not only were the entertainment journalists, but also many social and current affairs journalists squeezed into the banquet hall. The number of reporters present was nearly 500. Moreover, under the operation of Disney Far East Branch and China Film Group, the press conference was broadcast live through the film channel of the state TV station.

The marketing war in China began completely from this moment.

"A lot of Chinese movie fans can't forget the screen hurricane that broke out in "Transformers" last year."

After a brief introduction on a routine basis, the reporter began to ask enthusiastic questions, "But the reputation of the film is seriously polarized. Ryan, what do you think of "Transformers"?"

"This is a movie that most viewers like very much, especially those friends who have been obsessed with all kinds of Transformers toys."

Ryan's Mandarin is even more standard than this reporter from Shanghai. "I feel very satisfied with making this series of movies, because I finally have the opportunity to work a good match with my beloved toys in downtown, desert, jungle and other places."

"Before…" Ryan pointed to Michael Bay. "When we collaborated on "The World's Doomsday", we had to work hard to find a suitable reason for those actions and explosions, especially in deserted places. Why do humans and machinery appear?"

The reporters laughed kindly, and Ryan continued, "When I met Transformers, everything had an answer. The perfect combination of modern technology made by Earthlings and alien creatures makes even those who have not watched the Transformers animation and played with toys quickly fascinated."

"So Michael and I are doing this series with great care. I hope it can satisfy not only those viewers who pursue unparalleled movie scenes, but also those hardcore fans of Transformers."

He asked Michael Bay and Alessandra Ambroshoi a few questions routinely, and the reporter turned the topic to his own people.

Miss Gao was also a smart person and praised her quickly, "Looking back now, it was a wonderful experience to be able to star in the movie "Transformers". The producers and directors trusted me very much. They felt that I could do it well, and Director Michael Bay also gave me a lot of freedom, which relieved my pressure a lot."

There is actually nothing to say about the first part. She quickly turned the topic to the second part being filmed. "In the new episode, my character faces more tests, and the difficulty of shooting is also much higher than the first episode. There are many dangerous scenes I personally shoot, and no matter how dangerous the shooting encounters, I think it is worth it, because this movie requires the whole body and mind of the actors. There are so many viewers around the world staring at you, and you must do your best."

The reporter then threw the question about her to Ryan. A reporter with a website sign asked, "Mr. Jenkins, how do you view your cooperation with Miss Gao in the video?" (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
