"The fireworks team, already preparing for the set outside London, Wayne, you'd better speed up your work in Italy, there's so much to deal with. And, for the release time..."

Wayne leaned against the head of the bed with his mobile phone, listening to the chatter of Bruce Rosenblum on the other end of the phone. One hand struggled to reach the cigarette on the bedside table, pulled out one and held it in his mouth, and reached out to the hard-to-get lighter again.

His long, white and slender arms appeared in front of him, picked up the lighter and clicked, fired and placed it in front of his cigarette.

After glanced at Monica Bellucci, who was still confused, Wayne put a cigarette in his mouth slightly forward, took a hard sip, nodded at the naked woman, muttering:

"Thank you, God, Monicani, you are so beautiful."

"Ha~" Monica Bellucci covered his mouth with one hand and yawned. "You're welcome."

"Hey, Wayne, what thank you? I'm talking to you...uh..." Bruce Rosenblum's puzzled voice came from the phone, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and stopped in an instant and said halfway. "Ahha, call you so early, am I disturbing your nature?"

"f**k, let's continue to talk about the serious matter." With a difficult look, we left Monica Bellucci's upper body. Wayne narrowed his eyes and stared at the sunlight that was coming in from the window. It was dazzling, dazzling and refreshing.

"Bruce, Warner Bros. Fireworks team, um..." After pondering for a moment, he continued: "What I need is to try to restore the battlefield scenes of World War II, so in "Wonder Woman", there will definitely be no exaggerated explosion effects for the sake of visual impact. I will let John communicate with them again."

On the phone, Bruce Rosenblum replied happily: "Of course, the Warner Brothers will give the fireworks team enough support."

Until now, Wayne's team did not have his own fireworks team, which is related to the type of films he had filmed before. It basically involved a small-scale explosion scene, and all used fireworks teams from Warner Bros.

You know, although the primary goal of explosives used in filming is to visual effects, it is an extremely dangerous item and profession after all.

Therefore, even if he doesn't have a professional fireworksman and fireworks team, Wayne is unwilling to bring in a group of people to form. This thing is too professional, and if he doesn't play well, it will be a big accident. In addition, there are not many explosion scenes in his video, so he simply uses the professional team within Warner Bros.

In the film "Wonder Woman", there are a large number of scenes in the World War II battlefield. As expected, the Warner Bros.'s fireworks team has rushed to the Warner Studios outside London to prepare.

Because Wayne's requirement to restore the real World War II battlefield as much as possible, the fireworks team required continuous experiments to find more suitable blasting effects and explosive ratios, which inevitably required the strong support of Warner Brothers.

"Warner Bros.'s UK branch has completely coordinated support for crew filming with the City of London and has signed a contract."

Bruce Rosenblum continued to communicate with Wayne on the phone to the relevant shooting arrangements. "The two most important points are all done. When you lead the crew to feel London, the World War II weapons and equipment needed for the shooting will be loaned from the London Military Museum, including the tanks you designated to want.

The most important thing is that the London Municipal Government has helped to contact us. When you need it, the UK will send a unit of about 600 people to assist you in the relevant shooting and filming work..."

Listening to the arrangements coming from the phone, Wayne stared at the sunlight shining through the curtains and nodded with satisfaction.

In fact, whether it is the army, old World War II weapons and equipment, or even the imitation of the World War II blasting method, they are not the protagonists of this movie.

There is only one protagonist in this "Wonder Woman", that is Diana Prince. Wayne's current global popularity and the importance Warner Bros. attaches great importance to him. When he proposed to try to restore the reality as much as possible, he still got the best cooperation.

Although Warner Bros. is very clear that these labor and material resources, as well as the preparations for related relationships, are just background boards in some videos, and no one dares to ignore his requests.

"Wayne, the British government provides a lot of conveniences to the crew, including when city shots are needed, the police force will help clear the field and block the streets."

Listening to Bruce Rosenblum's words on the phone, he began to feel a little hesitant. Wayne knew that the local municipal government would definitely not provide these convenient services unconditionally.

He didn't mind at all. Equivalent exchange was the norm, so he directly pointed at the phone receiver and asked, "Tell me, what do they want the crew to do?"

"The city government and the British representative have two requirements." Seeing that Wayne was not unhappy, Bruce Rosenblum continued: "First point, all the lower-level handymen, assistants, and various related temporary workers in the crew must be hired locally."

Holding the mobile phone, nodding silently, Wayne was not surprised.

You should know that when the crew arrives on the set outside London and meets with the team there, there will probably be at least nearly 300 people. This has not yet been counted as handymen, temporary workers, extras, and military provided by the British government.

If you want to ensure the lives of so many people, just three meals a day can provide countless benefits to the local area. There are also many jobs that need to be created by the staff employed locally.

"The second point is that they don't want to show "bad" shots for the UK in your videos. You know, they need to let fans around the world see their gentlemanly side. As for the others, then..."

"Ok, I understand, this is not a realistic film in World War II, don't worry." Wayne smiled knowingly. He had already thought about the realistic scenes in "Save Private Ryan" that made many sensitive people notice how huge the influence of the movie was.

Especially when a film is sold around the world, let alone deliberately slandering, even if it truly restores the history and ecological scenes of that year, it is something that many countries cannot accept.

As for the Empire of the Sun Never Set, no one knows what the so-called gentleman spirit is. Under that gentleman face, what is hidden is precious qualities such as plundering, colonization, weakness, bullying the weak, fearing the strong. Now, what remains of the Empire of the Sun Never Set is just the "gentleman" character from the ancient tradition.

"So, you don't have enough time." At the end of the conversation, Bruce Rosenblum finally reminded: "It's better to speed up the action on your hands. "Superman" has the opportunity to choose a release date. "Wonder Woman" has no longer had such flexible choice treatment since the day of its project."

"I understand that I will speed up my work in Italy. Let's do it first. If you have any problems, you can call me at any time."

Just before Wayne was about to hang up the phone, he thought of something suddenly and joked at the microphone again: "Bruce, I hope you can dial the work number in Nina next time, so I will thank you very much for your respect for my private life."

"Ahhh, OK, keep enjoying."

After hanging up the phone, Wayne threw the phone on the bedside table, leaned against the bedside with a cigarette in his mouth and began to ponder.

Bruce Rosenblum's reminder is actually very right, and his time is really not enough. Not to mention "Superman" that is still waiting for later, even "Wonder Woman" being filmed, it is quite challenging to complete it before May next year.

Yes, other films have the opportunity to choose their release time, but "Wonder Woman" has not. Because of the past years, with the DC superhero film produced by Greenberg, fans have become accustomed to seeing it at the beginning of the summer season.

The brand effect established over the years and the movie fans' watching habits that he cannot easily break it himself.

Therefore, when the film "Wonder Woman" was first launched, Warner Bros. had announced the release date to the public. In mid-May, this is the traditional release date of Wayne's work.

As the director with the most brand effect and the most brand effect film under Warner Bros., no one will tolerate the unexpected occurrence of overdue and postponed release, including Wayne himself.

"Dear, do you want me to accompany you?"

Seeing Wayne answering the phone, after taking a look at the time, he lifted the quilt and got out of bed again and again, and walked towards the bathroom. Monica Bellucci tilted his head and asked in a low voice.

"No, taking a bath with you will definitely delay your work today. God, you don't know how beautiful you are." Wayne smiled and shook his head, opened the bathroom door and walked in. After a while, the sound of taking a shower came from inside.

For Monica Bellucci, she was not overwhelmed by the man's praise at all, especially after taking a glance at Angelina Jolie who was still asleep.

At most, this man just talks about it. In fact, only two women understand that the more beautiful and sexy he is in front of him, the more he will be treated rudely.

But all this is your own choice. At least you can choose this young, handsome, reputable man. It is always better to spend time with those old perverts with big belly and not necessarily get rewarded.

"Help wake up our "Wonder Woman" and tell her that if she is late, I will ask her to apologize in person to the 200 staff members of the entire group."

In less than ten minutes, Wayne walked out of the bathroom while wiping his hair. He threw away the towel on his head, picked up Siku that Nina had prepared in advance and put it on his body. He didn't care about Angelina Jolie who was still sleeping soundly, but just pointed at Monica Bellucci before going out.

"A heartless man, isn't it?"

Covering her mouth and yawned a big yawn, Angelina Jolie lifted the quilt helplessly, and walked towards the bathroom under the gaze of another woman. Obviously, she did not want to get any response from the Italian woman.

Looking at this hot American girl, Monica Bellucci's eyes slowly narrowed. Thinking of the madness she had last night, she still clearly remembers how playful and open this woman is.

Especially on the other person's back, the bruises and the marks of being beaten are very obvious. However, she did not look down on the other person at all, and she had no contempt at all. She understood more than anyone else that there was no difference between herself and this woman here.

And relatively speaking, this woman is more ruthless than herself and is more eager to pursue her goals.

Another day was boring, and the fragmented shooting began. It took the entire crew just over a week, and the passion of the staff gradually faded. But this also means that everyone switched from the vacation state in the shortest time and completely entered the working state.

The reason why Wayne is confident that he can complete such a huge and complex project in more than half a year is also due to this mature behind-the-scenes team. His source of confidence is this group of teams who skipped the running-in state and entered the tacit working state.

The big action scene on the beach is about to end. With the hard work of the action stunt team, the large-scale and multi-player war scenes have ended. Now the rest are only action scenes of the male and female protagonists.

However, when shooting these shots, everyone discovered a situation. The action supervisor who temporarily directed the shooting could not command the two male and female protagonists!

At first no one noticed anything special. After all, in this crew, in addition to the top power beast Wayne, the male and female protagonists are also important figures in the top few. To a certain extent, Angelina Jolie and Matt Damon are even more important than several assistant directors.

This is the most common situation in Hollywood. In order to reflect his status in the crew and to reflect the strict and strict class in the Hollywood crew, it is normal for the male and female protagonists to look at people with their eyes.

But when the morning was almost over, a complete shot was not finished, which was very abnormal. So slowly, the staff also discovered that there was no other reason. It was simply that in the eyes of the male and female protagonists, as the action supervisor who was temporary commanding, they had no power to command them unscrupulously.

"Dear Ms. Julie, Mr. Damon, can you share with me what you encountered so happy that you needed to laugh!"

Originally, this situation was the producer who came forward to control the scene. But when Nina reported the situation to Wayne, who was making a shooting plan in the director's trailer, he appeared directly at the shooting scene.

With a cold face like a robot, no emotional questioning, Wayne's appearance standing beside the movement guide made everyone shrink their necks in an instant, including the male and female protagonist who was just smiling.

“e on, answer me, Ms. Julie.”

Wayne stretched out a finger without hesitation and directly pointed it at Angelina Jolie's forehead. This action is actually quite insulting, but no one, including Angelina Jolie, dared to refute it at this time.

"Answer me, you and Steve, who had just been rescued, are hiding behind the reef and watching the tribe fight for you, watching the tribe fight with outsiders, why can you laugh out loud??"

Looking at the fingers of the man who was close to him and the other person's face that had no feelings at all, Angelina Jolie said aloud: "sorry, Wayne."

"Sorry, Director Greenberg..." Matt Damon shrugged at the same time and whispered.

"Gentlemen, ladies, I think you got the wrong person you should apologize!" As he said that, Wayne took two steps back and left the somewhat helpless movement supervisor in place.

Angelina Jolie and Matt Damon looked at each other, and they understood the meaning of each other's eyes at the same time. In fact, they did not expect that Wayne would come out to help control the scene when the crew was about to complete.

"Sorry, Thompson."

“Sorry, Thompson.”

Without any hesitation, the two nodded to the action supervisor in front of them and expressed their apology.

"Continue shooting, the day after tomorrow, we will rush to the next outdoor location." Seeing that the action supervisor took over their apology, Wayne waved his hand and said to the staff around him.

As his words fell, the scene seemed to have suddenly come alive, and all the staff lowered their heads and prepared for the filming.

No one thinks that the male and female protagonists lose face when they bow to the action director, because the two celebrity actors who just apologized knew in their hearts that this is Wayne's crew, this is Wayne's territory, and Wayne is the only tyrant in the crew who does not have to abide by the rules, and no one is willing to easily fight his authority.

Even John Gray, who is a producer, will not work, unless anyone wants to be kicked out, and there is a high probability that he will not be able to find a job from now on.

"Boss, you actually know better than anyone else. Doing this doesn't make much sense at all."

After returning to the trailer again, Nina saw Wayne rubbing her forehead, opened the director's record book again and started writing and drawing, and said softly: "They are the male and female protagonists, they are among the top few in this crew's importance. Even if you ask them to apologize, you can't change this fact."

"Maybe it will make the shooting smooth for at least two days!"

This is a common phenomenon in Hollywood, and Wayne is certainly very clear. Not to mention Angelina Jolie and Matt Damon, even within his own team behind the scenes, the class is still very clear. Just like when Wayne was away, the camera supervisor was the undisputed core of the team.

My importance and power is greater than yours, so I will naturally look down on you, unless one day you surpass me in importance and power. This is the law of the jungle of Chilolo.

After two consecutive weeks of shooting, the beach finally returned to quiet, leaving only a trace of being trampled by horses and staff.

The crew's huge convoy set off again and headed towards the next location, Monte Castle in Puglia, southeastern Italy. In addition to Monica Beluchi, who was sitting in the director's car, there was also a young actor who had just arrived from North America and was called Amanda Seifried.

The young actor came very timely. During Wayne's shooting plan, a large number of Diana Prince's childhood shots will be taken at Mont Castle. The scene where Diana Prince gets items such as the Sword before leaving Paradise Island will also be filmed in this castle.
