Rebirth In Hollywood

Chapter 38 Bonfire Party II

Almost all the people around the bonfire were people in the film industry, and the topic quickly turned to the film aspect, especially the future development trend of film.

"There is no doubt that special effects and post-production will take up a larger and larger proportion of commercial films in the future. The investment of $100 million to watch "Terminator 2" is very high, but I believe that it will not be long before this The numbers will be surpassed." James Cameron finished, taking a swig of beer.

"It will definitely be surpassed!" Ryan first nodded in agreement, and then said, "But that person's name will still be James Cameron."

The people around him burst into laughter at the same time, but Cameron didn't take it seriously. "For the director, that's a great honor."

"It's a huge pressure for investment companies." Ryan seemed to be accustomed to him, "Jim, believe me, one day you will force investors to jump off the building."

Next, the topic turned to film technology. The ladies were obviously laymen, so they got together and discussed the topic of fashion.

Thanks to his career as a film projectionist in his previous life and the benefits of the information explosion, although Ryan is a complete layman in terms of professionalism, some opinions he throws out from time to time will always attract the attention of other people, especially his views on film technology. , and the technology madman Cameron often coincides.

"I commissioned Industrial Light and Magic to use CG technology to make the beginning of the film. Although it has not yet been completed, the effect will definitely surprise everyone." The director is also a human, and it is inevitable that he will start showing off after drinking, "You know what, That sub-three-minute CG scene cost $7.5 million to remake a Terminator 1."

Mario Casar on the other side almost cried while listening. The money burned on special effects made his heart bleed.

"Jim, haven't you thought about making a movie to hit the Oscars?" Anyway, it was small talk, and Schwarzenegger simply changed the subject.

"You become the male lead, and then go to the throne of the best actor?" Cameron was obviously teasing.

"Do you think this is possible?" Schwarzenegger asked back. In fact, he knew very well that the golden man for the best actor should not have to think about it in his life.

"Then do you think the Film Academy will award the best director to a director who can only make commercial films?" Cameron curled his lips in disdain, "Would you suggest that I go to those drowsy literary arts? film?"

"No, no, Jim," Ryan said suddenly. "I think it's entirely possible."

"Come on, Ryan, I admit that you have some unique insights into movies, but do you understand the tastes and standards of the film school?" Cameron waved him dismissively.

"Of course!" Ryan glared at him. "For example, if you continue to make science fiction films, you will be unpopular with film academies like George Lucas, but what about making realistic commercial films?"

Before he could answer, Ryan continued, "Yes, the old men of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences are indeed stubborn and conservative, clinging to the so-called art brand, but that doesn't mean they won't bow to business. , think about it, when a commercial blockbuster based on real events has made more than one billion dollars, or even two billion dollars at the box office, will the film school continue to ignore it? Dare to continue to ignore it?”

"God! Do you think I can make a movie that grossed over a billion or even two billion dollars?" Cameron smiled and shook his head.

Ryan shrugged,

He simply closed his mouth, anyway, everyone just regarded him as a child's words, just joking.

The sonorous and powerful music sounded, and those who had been drinking played dance music, and many people gathered in an open space and danced hotly.

Alcohol is strong, and there are more men than women in the crew. Naturally, many people came to chat with Nicole cheekily, but Nicole was not interested in heavy metal music under the influence of Ryan. There are a lot of cold and arrogant, even if they are polite on the surface, but they refuse to be polite.

Ryan digs his ears. To be honest, these fast-paced heavy metal dance songs are closer to noise in his ears. What's even more frustrating is that a certain person in the crew who was drinking too much also used the strength of the drink to make a sound. He roared loudly, if this place is not close to the city, maybe the wolf will be recruited, and the one who comes is the female wolf!

"Nicole, let's go back." He really didn't want his ears to be poisoned any more.

"You don't like it?" Schwarzenegger leaned over.

"Don't you think it's too noisy?" Ryan took Nicole's hand and shrugged.

"By the way, I remember you often play the guitar, why don't you give us a show?" Sitting next to Nicole was Linda Hamilton, who immediately remembered that the boy often played with the guitar in his arms.

"Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!"

Schwarzenegger's voice was full of energy, and he even suppressed the music. He didn't ask Ryan for advice. After the music stopped, he said bluntly, "Ryan is going to perform a guitar solo for us!"

I don't agree, okay? Ryan pouted and wanted to refuse, and suddenly remembered the song he re-arranged and changed the lyrics. Since it was for Nicole, why couldn't it be sung in front of so many people?

Nicole's female assistant quickly ran to the boy's trailer and took his acoustic guitar. When he opened the guitar case and took out the guitar, someone who knew the goods in the field exclaimed, "Taylor's handmade rosewood guitar , seventy thousand dollars! Ryan is indeed a little rich!"

Ryan didn't use a pick, he habitually tried the tone, looked at Nicole, and when her eyes fell on him, he said, "'becausa.of.you', dedicated to Nicole Key Miss Durman!"

The beautiful guitar sounded, although this tune is not very suitable for acoustic guitar, but with Ryan's superb technique, the tune is less pathetic and more sentimental.

"I won't make the mistakes I've made, I won't fill my heart with pain again...

Because of you, I learned to stay in a safe place and not get hurt, because of you, I try to trust others and live in peace with those around me, because of you, I have something to rely on! "

Ryan hasn't changed his voice yet, and his singing is inevitably a little childish. Compared with the original version, his singing voice is not strong enough, but more high-pitched. It is somewhat close to the version of the British boy. Of course, it is different from the two, because He added his own feelings to it.

The lyrics have been revised in many places. For example, at the end, I felt afraid and became my heart's support. The meaning of the lyrics is more like the changes in his life after he met Nicole, and the fear that one day she will be away from him.

What doesn't change is the transmission of emotion, the shocking indictment, and the resonance of all those who know or don't know music.

Looking at Ryan playing and singing with his eyes closed, how could Nicole not hear what he wanted to express? Although the song resonated strongly with her, she didn't like it.

Because of this sad song, it reminded her of his past, returned to their meeting on the Avenue of Stars, and foresaw the future...separation!

She was suddenly a little irritable. For some reason, she wanted to stop Ryan from continuing to sing, but she endured it. When his singing stopped, she smiled and applauded.

I have to say that her acting skills are really good in this world, and even Ryan, who is very familiar with her, didn't notice anything unusual.

Excellent songs always have the power to move people's hearts. Even if the song is so unfamiliar, it does not prevent them from tasting the unique taste from the music.

At the end of the song, the thunderous applause seemed to overturn the sky. Ryan twitched the corners of his mouth proudly, and James Cameron, who always likes to make things difficult for him, suddenly shouted, "Hey, Ryan, come again. One!"

"Yeah, Ryan, another one." The cooing voices came one after another, which was meant to hit a water dog.

Ryan couldn't help but feel a little mad. He wrote a lot of songs, but most of them were fragments, and he felt that the voice change period was still far away, and he was too lazy to organize them. The English songs that he remembered the most were almost all representative works of female singers.

Just like the vast majority of people, young men and women tend to pay more attention to singers of the opposite sex. What's more, compared to movies, when he paid attention to the English music scene in his previous life, he had already entered the new century for several years.

Could it be that there is going to be a boy's version of "Super Complicated"? It is estimated that it will be beaten to death by fans of yeast.

Forget it, let's come to an original song. Although it's not finished, it's better to sing it wherever it goes, so as to save these guys who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic to continue to roar.

The acoustic guitar sounded again, and the festival was much brighter. Although it had a lot of country music styles, it was undoubtedly closer to pop. Ryan's humming voice was full of inspirational flavors.

"Life is like climbing. The road ahead is always full of obstacles. People who never give up run forward with their heads held high until they reach the highest and most beautiful place..."

This is a song with a completely different style from the previous one, but it is equally beautiful. There are many music lovers in the crew, but they have never heard these two songs. Moreover, although the boy has not gotten rid of the childish voice, his singing voice seems to be somewhat Flaws, but the song is deduced from his mouth, but it has a unique flavor.

Just when everyone was intoxicated in the song, when Ryan sang the chorus part, the tune suddenly became scattered, and the guitar sound lost its previous charm and began to develop into chaos.

Sighing secretly, Ryan had to stop, and in the face of the doubtful eyes, he scratched his head and explained, "The song and lyrics are not finished yet, it can only be like this."

What is the song and lyrics are not finished yet? Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then someone who responded quickly woke up.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's mouth trembled, "Ryan, don't tell me, you wrote these two songs?"

"Actually... it's really like this." Ryan handed the acoustic guitar to Nicole and shook his wrist vigorously. He changed some words and re-arranged the previous song, and the latter song was finished. It's completely original, and he's more assertive than he ever said.

The people around who heard his voice almost simultaneously showed their astonished eyes, looking at him as if they were looking at a Martian.

They were tempted to ask, "Ryan, what else do you have?"
