Chapter 465: The filming of "Inception" starts! The lead actor is scared away! (22)

According to Shen Santong’s philosophy, for large-scale productions, the plot structure of the film must be simple.

So the plot of "Inception" is very simple.

The male protagonist, Li Weiguo, carries the legacy of the dream keeper.

Due to some reasons, I can no longer return to my country.

Wandering in Siam, a foreign country, leading a decadent life.

A shocking crisis quietly befell his country.

Ross, a financial hunter known as the "Flesh Plunderer", chose the country he once plundered as a test battlefield for his son.

Hunting Ross's son wants to complete a hearty plunder in the new round of economic crisis.

Eat meat and drink blood, the bloodier the ten years of eating Siamese food, the higher the rating.

Siam, a country that had finally integrated into the industrial chain of the Eastern great power and had restored its tiny vitality after the plundering of the ruins by the Russians, was once again facing the scene of countless people losing their jobs and a large number of broken families.

Li Weiguo, who regards protection as his lifelong belief, came out of decadence and chose to take action.

Decided to rewrite the thoughts of Huntros' son by implanting subconsciousness.

However, his opponent is not only the son of Huntros, but also another group of "Dream Stealers".

This is a group of evil forces that seek profits by entering dreams and rewriting the subconscious mind.

It seems to be inextricably linked to Li Weiguo's inheritance.

The Dream Stealing Gang was a tool that Karros arranged for his son through the consortium. They were ordered to guide the Siamese Finance Minister to pursue shock therapy and neoliberalism, and choose to allow plundering instead of rescuing the market in the crisis.

Li Weiguo formed his own team. After a fierce struggle, Li Weiguo's team defeated the "Dream Stealer" team, rewrote the memory of Shuros' son, and lived up to the dream keeper's mission of protection.

end.

With the master's permission, I can go home to see my children.

Of course, changing one heir will not put an end to a group of predators.

A new crisis is about to emerge.

Leaving behind the factors of the second part.

To put it simply, the first part of "Inception" is the story of the male protagonist from the University of Tokyo saving Siam.

very simple.

The background is Thailand, and Soros is Soros.

Huang Xiaoming plays Li Weiguo.

Li Xuejian plays the role of the top leader of the Dream Guardians organization, the director of the 638 Bureau who is hidden in the dark.

Yan Danchen plays the protagonist's wife, who is already dead and can only live in the protagonist's dreams.

The leader of the Dream Stealers gang, played by Robert Pattinson.

Robert is the star of "Twilight", which will be released at the end of the year.

At present, he is just a minor actor who has performed in the fourth and fifth Harry Potter films.

It has a certain reputation, but not a big one.

Even so, Shen Santong spent $500,000 and only asked for a three-week schedule.

His salary is the highest in the show.

Many foreign actors starred in the play "Inception".

Masami Nagasawa from this book is one of the more famous ones.

He is 21 years old this year, but has been in the industry for nine years.

Pichaya Wattanamondi from Thailand, whose Chinese name is Qiu Minmin, also known as Min.

In 06, Pichaya participated in the Thai beauty pageant and won the championship. She is a descendant of Chinese.

His family runs its own building materials company and real estate projects in Thailand.

Pichaya has not made her debut yet, but Shen Santong doesn’t care.

His films are mainly marketed in the country, and do not rely on so-called "international stars" to drive box office sales.

When choosing actors, we consider their suitability for the role and the relevant layout.

Pichaya is of Chinese descent, and Shen San Tong wants to make her a pop idol in Thailand.

Of course, there is no emotional scene between her and the male lead in his movie.

This is also what makes Shen Santong different from Hollywood movies, his male protagonists are not in heat all the time, and he does not need actors from other countries to show "extroversion".

The values ​​of the movie are not extroverted values, the kind that make people feel soft.

Instead, they stayed and "built their own country."

Dongda is an indigenous civilization and has no moral baggage.

On the other hand, the industrialization of the University of Tokyo does not rely on external plunder and has no moral baggage.

Building your own country well and fighting for your own interests will win you more respect from the people of Southeast University.

This also allows Shen Santong's film roles to gain more local support.

People like Yang Ziqiong and that male actor, who win awards by selling stereotypes, have no foundation.

Shen Santong shook hands with Robert and said, "Hello, you can move freely after the script reading."

In this crew, the actor that Shen Santong has the most difficulty in controlling is Robert Pattinson.

There are strict restrictions on various arrangements during working hours, and filming arrangements must be made prior to the other party's filming.

This is the advantage of Western actors. Even if Robert has not soared to fame at the moment, he can still ride on the express train of Western strength and culture.

Robert said with respect: "Hello, Shen, I will cooperate with your work."

His agent reminded him that Shen was different from other directors from the Tokyo University. He was a truly great director with tens of millions of fans.

Joining Shen Santong's project can quickly gain popularity in Dongda. Originally, the agency did not want him to take other projects before the release of "Twilight", but Shen's project was an exception.

It’s best to get the one recommended by the agency.

The latest film in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, grossed NT$150 million at the Tokyo International Film Festival.

It entered the world's tenth largest market for the first time and grew very fast, doubling its growth.

Only in China, as Harry Potter has grown, has the box office achieved a linear growth at a considerable rate with each episode.

This is a fast-growing market that Hollywood studios take very seriously, and gaining fame here will help him compete for other projects.

Moreover, if the Dongda film project fails, no one will pay attention to it and it will not affect his acting career.

On the contrary, you can earn some income and gain attention from the University of Tokyo, which is a sure-win option.

Robert also thought it was good. He was not very optimistic about "Twilight". It was a best-seller, but when he acted in it, he felt like a moron.

The plot of the film is old-fashioned and the emotions are pale.

It's totally unwatchable, with boring long shots, poor performances, a dragging plot, and breathless, incoherent dialogues.

Shen Santong and the actors read the script together.

Let’s talk about the theme of “Inception” first.

As the financial crisis spread, Shen Santong modified the details of the script.

Let’s start with the financial crisis.

Shen Santong first talked about the Asian financial crisis and then sorted out this financial crisis.

Finally, he concluded: "This play is a story of resistance to plunder. Thailand has been plundered, Benzi has been plundered many times, including Dai Ying during the Iron Lady period."

"It is a minority, a very small minority, dozens or hundreds of people, who oppress the majority, tens of millions, hundreds of millions of people. Individual interest groups are above the entire population."

"Take the U.S. financial crisis for example. Lehman died. What happened next?"

"A few days after Lehman collapsed, the Federal Reserve announced that it would step in to rescue AIG, approving a two-year loan totaling $850 billion."

“On the 21st, the Federal Reserve approved Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs to become banks.”

"Lehman Brothers deserves death, but other financial institutions should not die too?"

Domestic actors are fine, there are no language barriers and they are not sensitive to this aspect.

The script and the Siamese actors were also okay, and although the translation was halting, they could barely understand it.

The sensitivity is average, and it is mainly the responsibility of the directors from the University of Tokyo, and they have little to do with it.

Robert, who was born in the West and had a very tight ideological frame of mind, looked slightly unhappy.

Something is wrong.

Shen Santong continued: "This crisis is just a continuation of the US problem."

“为了挽救科技股泡沫引发的衰退，2001-2003年6月，利率从6.5%降低1%。”

"In 01, ultra-low interest rates stimulated a highly prosperous real estate market, and the subprime mortgage market developed rapidly."

"The U.S. real estate market is overheated, and the U.S. approach is to withdraw funds and cool down the market."

“There were 2004 consecutive rate hikes between 2006 and 17.”

"As money became less, multiple mortgages were used. The major U.S. investment banks played a big trick and created subprime mortgages, which led to an explosive boom in subprime mortgages."

"Then, as the real estate bubble burst and the subprime mortgage crisis unfolded, the Fed had to start cutting rates again starting in the second half of 2007."

"If there is too much water, add noodles. If there is too much noodles, add water."

"The domestic crisis continued to shift, triggering a financial tsunami and a global economic crisis that the whole world suffered from."

The script reading in the morning is over.

Robert immediately found the executive agent who was following the group and told him the topic.

When the executive agent heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Run away! You must not act in this movie. If you act in it, you will never be able to survive in Hollywood."

Robert wondered, "Is it that serious?"

The executive agent said, "It's more serious than you think. Just run."

Robert said, "This is considered a breach of contract, right? Tell Shen about it, or ask him to change the script?"

The executive agent said, "No, this is a very powerful man, one of the most powerful directors in the University of the East. I'm afraid he will force you to fulfill the contract."

"There's nothing wrong with the script. We've read the character script. It's just a clichéd showdown between good and evil."

"Stop talking, pack up and let's go. You go out first, and then I'll go out. Let's go straight to Bangkok Airport. Any subsequent disputes will be resolved by the company."

Robert: "Then I have greatly offended him, and the early stage shooting was all centered around me?"

The executive agent was speechless: "You are still worried about yourself. He is the director of Dongda University. He doesn't care about some people chasing him. Can you do that?"

"Todai is an advantage, but also a disadvantage for him. We can run away if we want."

The agents are also afraid.

He is just an ordinary executive broker and he might not be able to make it in this line of work.

Against American interest groups, against Wall Street, and against Soros's consortium.

Too ha.

Is this a topic worth touching upon?

Two updates today. Take a break.

I wrote about the financial crisis and situation before for the sake of movies.

Subsequent films must take into account the current situation. We are a single large market and must observe the audience's attitude.

The reality does not reflect the changes of the times, it’s just because our film industry is too lame.
