Chapter 625 Good morning, Night City
Naturally, this move cannot be hidden from others, but many people do not doubt the usefulness of this fund. After all, it is given to Little Gilbert's fund.
Everyone thought that Donald was drinking some soup with his son-in-law, but the act of selling the property still made many people complain, saying that Donald's brain was broken.
In the past, Donald's big mouth would have been shouting all over the world that he would follow little Gilbert to eat the money from the economic crisis.
However, under Ivanka's instructions, Donald remained tight-lipped and didn't reveal even a little bit, which is rare.
By the time the group reacted, Donald was already holding Little Gilbert's thigh, holding generous funds, and freely began to taunt him loudly.
Not to mention, Donald's mouth alone can ruin everything in New York.
Ignoring this topic for the time being, in mid-August, "Edgewalker" officially began filming at a studio converted from an Air Force base somewhere in Nevada.
Perhaps because the preparation work was very good, the actors got into the mood quite quickly. Especially Sijia, she set an example for everyone.
There was also an action scene on the first day. Due to the thunder in my chest, I went on stage and did most of it myself. But if it's too difficult, it's better to leave it to a stuntman.
After filming a scene, Scarlett jumped into little Gilbert's arms excitedly: "How was my performance?"
Little Gilbert said disgustedly: "Please don't squirm around, okay?"
Sensing the changes below, Sijia grew horns on her head and twisted even more fiercely.
She also blew gently into little Gilbert's ear, and then whispered: "I will wear it for you to wear tonight."
This little goblin, little Gilbert wanted to punish Scarlett right away.
The first day was mainly about getting used to it, showing the crew how to work. This is the first time Jason Statham has collaborated with a big director like Gilbert Jr., even though he was starring in a series.
But at the beginning of filming, the best performer was Jason Statham. Maybe it's because most of the scenes involving him are action scenes and fights.
Andrew Garfield needs some adaptation. The filming rhythm of the series is different from that of the movie, which will be slightly slower.
The series also expanded the world view, not only telling the story of David Martinez and his group, but also showing all aspects of Night City.
Of course, there is also the classic opening of "Cyberpunk: 2077", which is a guest appearance by little Gilbert himself.
After more than half a month of filming, little Gilbert read this line himself:
"Good morning, Night City! Yesterday's Dead Man Lottery, the final result was a full thirty! Thanks to the endless gang wars, Heywood alone lost ten.
But one police officer also died. I think you all have to pay because the NCPD will definitely not be able to swallow this breath.
Another blackout occurred in Santo Domingo, and the power grid was damaged, again by cyber hackers.
Meanwhile, Westbrook's trauma team was collecting the bodies of victims of cyberpsychosis on the sidewalk.
And in Taiping Prefecture...well, Taiping Prefecture is still Taiping Prefecture.
I am your best friend Stan, join me and start a new day in the city of dreams! ”
When Little Gilbert finished reading this paragraph, everyone applauded, and Andrew Garfield said: "I guess David must have done a lot."
"I think Adam Hammer did more," Dwayne Johnson said.
After Little Gilbert came down, he said: "Actually, I reserved this sentence for V in the movie, but since it is the first work, there must be a beginning.
I think after listening to this paragraph, the audience has begun to look forward to what Night City is like. ”
"Indeed," everyone agreed, thinking that what little Gilbert said made sense. Filming is going well and the soundtrack for the series is also being produced. This time Little Gilbert did not ask Hans Zimmer to collaborate, although he is a master of scoring.
There are two composers this time, one is Ed, who specializes in psychedelic electronic music, and is from Denmark. Lorsky, another Romanian composer who specializes in heavy metal rock music.
The two worked together to create the soundtrack that little Gilbert needed.
In addition, Avril Lavigne not only played a guest role in the series, but also sang the theme song "".
There is a story behind the creation of this theme song. Avril Lavigne followed the crew for more than half a month in order to better compose the theme song.
One day little Gilbert asked Avril Lavigne: "Vivian, do you have any inspiration?"
Avril Lavigne said distressedly: "I can't think of it right now. Why don't you find someone else to try?"
Little Gilbert shook his finger and said: "No, I have a rough melody. Let me hum it for you."
So little Gilbert hummed a melody to Avril Lavigne. Not to mention, although little Gilbert always said that he couldn't sing, the melody was pretty decent.
Avril Lavigne expanded this melody and wrote it into the current song, which little Gilbert named "".
Although Gilbert Jr. even asked not to add his name, Avril Lavigne still added Gilbert's name in the composition and lyrics columns.
Then little Gilbert transformed into a musician, even though he, as a musician, didn't know anything about musical notation.
But it’s not a big problem. Zheng Zhihua also doesn’t know music notation, and he still wrote “Sailor” and “Stars Lighting”.
After writing the theme song, Avril Lavigne happily ran back to the Los Angeles recording studio to record the song.
During the break in filming, Gilbert Jr. also handed over some of the filming tasks to several assistant directors, and made a special trip back to Los Angeles to attend a meeting.
He has secured the copyright for "I Am Legend" for a long time. After the success of "The Last of Us" this year, the project of "I Am Legend" has also been put on the agenda.
"The story of this novel is very good and very modern, although it is a novel written in 1954." Little Gilbert highly recommended it to the executives of Warner and Disney.
"I once filmed another work by Richard Matheson called "Iron Fist", which did well at the time."
A senior executive had a question: "I have read the original novel, which contains vampires. If we treat it as a science fiction story, wouldn't it be a bit divorced from reality?"
Another executive said: "Vampires can be explained through scientific speculation. I remember that there is a disease that can make humans crave blood?"
"Or there's another option," Gilbert Jr. said: "In the 1950s, zombie culture was a niche culture.
It wasn't until "Night of the Living Dead" in 1968 that zombies in the modern sense were created.
The setting of the film is also easier than that of vampires. It can be a viral infection, and there is no need to learn from the fungal infection in "The Last of Us". ”
Knowing that little Gilbert had no time to direct, an executive asked directly: "Little Gilbert, who do you recommend to direct?"
Little Gilbert thought for a while and said: "I recommend Guillermo del Toro to direct. If he doesn't agree, I will ask Francis Lawrence, who shot "Hell Detective", to direct.
As for the starring role, Will Smith is very suitable. ”
The project approval process went smoothly, and Gilbert Jr. still served as the film's producer. After hearing that Gilbert Jr. approached him to film, Guillermo del Toro agreed to the invitation to direct.
But in Will Smith's case, Will Smith refused the invitation, leaving little Gilbert confused for a while.
