Chapter 472 "The Chinese on the Titanic"

"Kah! Let's wait until winter for the rest."

For the movie "Hanabi", Takeshi Iwata felt that he could wait before filming.

Many shots have been shot and the movie is almost complete, but some shots still need to wait for snow.

Anyway, Takeshi Iwata is not anxious about this movie. He should be less anxious than Akira Kurosawa.

This film master has always felt that his time is running out, and his sense of crisis is even greater.

Therefore, under such circumstances, Takeshi Iwata first gave his subordinates a holiday to let them rest.

It's just that some actors don't have much time off, and that's just their wife Akina.

The few short jokes I filmed before were very funny. Akina said, Modo Modo.

Well, it’s not certain who doesn’t take a holiday.

But Iwata Takeshi will have a headache for at least a while and won't be able to run away.

Aren't they just some funny jokes, they can't stop us guys!

At this time, Takeshi Iwata received a call from Gary Oldman.

"Oh, that's what he said?"

"Yes, I was also very surprised. It was really unexpected."

"Then what else did he say?"

"It seems, it's nothing."

"Oh, by the way, what's the current situation on the set over there?"

"It's pretty good. From a technical point of view, it really opened my eyes."

"Technically?"

"Yes, from a technical perspective, today's technology is really great. I'm even worried that I will be unemployed in the future."

"Haha...is that so? Don't worry, no matter how strong the CG is, you won't be unemployed."

"This is what you said..."

Takeshi Iwata joked with Gary Oldman on the phone. Of course, Takeshi Iwata would definitely pay for this overseas call.

This phone is so valuable!

What exactly did Takeshi Iwata hear?

In fact, it can be considered that Gary Oldman gave some hints.

James Cameron, as it stands, must be somewhat dissatisfied with 20th Century Fox.

Of course, this is Takeshi Iwata's speculation, but in his opinion, this speculation is quite reliable.

In other words, from James Cameron's perspective, he has almost no other choice but to film it at 20th Century Fox.

On the one hand, this company is indeed powerful, and on the other hand, it is also an old partner.

And there is another key point, that is, 20th Century Fox has a very good relationship with Industrial Light and Magic.

George Lucas was originally one of Twentieth Century Fox's partners, so as far as Industrial Light and Magic is concerned.

No need to think about it, it is definitely inextricably linked to Fox.

However, as a famous supervisor and with his academic background, some things are still clear about Takeshi Iwata.

George Lucas has criticized Twentieth Century Fox more than once. He always criticized the company for being short-sighted and too small.

Yes, that's true.

This company has always looked down on many forward-looking things, or has not seen clearly, or has always made wrong choices.

Of course, this may have something to do with the company's DNA.

Fox, this is the propaganda mouthpiece of the American Republican Party and the stronghold of the right.

The rightists are conservatives, and they can be conservative if they can.

However, this conservative is not without shortcomings.

As Americans generally know very well, what is the biggest difference between the Republicans and the Democrats?

The Republican Party is relatively united.

The Democratic Party does have many elites, and they appear to be very powerful, with more people than the Republican Party, but the party is really chaotic inside.

Various hills collide with each other.

Well, the Republican Party actually has a lot of challenges, but this party has an advantage. Even if everyone has different ideas, they will actually unite in the end and fight for the big position.

This is why the Republican Party can continue to thrive today. Otherwise, judging by the number of people and supporters, they probably would not have the chance to produce any great leader.

The same is true for Fox TV and movie companies. Compared with the mouthpieces of the Democratic Party, this propaganda mouthpiece is a particularly conservative type.

Like CNN, which always exaggerates and reports news in a way that attracts attention, Fox at least has a bottom line and will not go too far.

And in this way, it has a certain style.

Defensive.

Therefore, when it comes to influencing movies, it also tends to be conservative in various ways.

Unfortunately, there are quite a few people at Fox who like to produce new great directors.

For example, George Lucas, Lucas's good friend Spielberg, and James Cameron.

Of course, Spielberg has his own company, and he is a benchmark for independent production.

However, in Hollywood, you have to have strong enough interpersonal relationships.

It is this style that George Lucas often competes with Fox.

And now, could it be that we have come to James Cameron?

Takeshi Iwata felt that this was a very good opportunity that could be exploited.

This opportunity...

He had to make some preparations.

In short, he wanted to write a small script.

…

Akina actually still wanted to film "Hanabi". This movie really left a good feeling on her.

In addition, Shinobu is just a cameo as a female teller in a bank. This is so wrong!

That's right, Akina planned to complain about her husband and then make good arrangements for her sister.

But don't want to...

"Oh, why did you start writing the script again?"

"Yes, this time..."

"Will it be difficult this time?"

"No, this time it will be fast."

When Akina came home, she saw her husband writing a script there. This scene was very interesting.

Izumi Iwata and Yui, the two little guys were watching beside their father, but their saliva would drop from time to time.

This is so interesting.

So is it a new movie this time?

"No." Takeshi Iwata seemed to have finished writing, "This will be a very interesting patch."

"Patch? What patch?"

Akina really didn't understand, she had never heard such a statement before.

But Takeshi Iwata's next performance was even more interesting. He picked up the little guy directly and gave it a mouthful.

"It would be a great patchwork to a great film."

Akina was even more confused, but what else could she say?

"Honey, I'm hungry."

"Ah, I happened to buy the ingredients for sukiyaki..."

Good guy, isn’t this very nutritious?

Takeshi Iwata had to eat sukiyaki first, and then discuss going to the United States.

…

In fact, James Cameron feels that 20th Century Fox does not respect him enough.
