Chapter 266： problem occurs

The off-road vehicle bumped all the way and carried Ryan to the crew's station. This is a very ordinary small town in Ireland. Because of the presence of the Spielberg crew, it became lively and busy.

Especially not too far from the town, there is an abandoned air force base. The crew of the crew is leading the construction team, engaged in infrastructure and destruction, and wants to build a devastated and ruined French battlefield.

"Hi, Toby."

Immediately after getting out of the car, Ryan saw Spielberg's assistant and asked, "Where is Steven?"

"Oh, God, Ryan, you are finally here." Toby Hoskin led Ryan forward. "Mr. Spielberg is just ahead."

Although there is still some time left to shoot the movie, the whole team has already started to be busy. Ryan walked along and hardly saw any idlers. When he came to a group of tents similar to a military camp, Spielberg was holding a satellite phone while Walking around, talking hoarsely.

No need to ask, Ryan also knows that the old Jewish man must be in the post-production of "Jurassic Park 2" remotely. If there is no accident, Spielberg will still not have it after shooting "Saving Private Ryan". idle.

Perhaps it was the change brought about by Ryan. The filming of "Saving Private Ryan", which should have been filmed long ago, has not been launched yet.

"Congratulations, Ryan!"

Spielberg put away the satellite phone, the first thing is to send congratulations, "Unexpectedly, the box office record of "Jurassic Park" was rewritten so quickly."

"It's just luck." Ryan was rarely humble.

"Is it really luck?" Tom Hanks suddenly walked out of the "barracks", "I believe that the next one to break this record will be you, Ryan."

"Oh, God!" Ryan showed a look of surprise, "Tommy, what are you..."

Tom Hanks almost changed his person. He was in dirty army green clothes, and the beard on his face had not been shaved for a long time, matched with sunken cheeks. It's like a refugee who has just escaped from Africa.

"We are undergoing military training." Tom Hanks spread his hands helplessly, "Trust me. Ryan, you will be like this in a week."

"Yes!" Spielberg swept Ryan up and down a few times, and said very seriously, "Ryan, you must lose at least five pounds before the film starts."

"Okay!" Ryan will naturally cooperate, "No problem."

Fortunately, his body shape looks a little thin from the outside. Otherwise, losing weight will definitely be a big trouble.

"Ryan, you are welcome to join the crew." Spielberg laughed.

"Ryan, welcome you to hell." Tom Hanks was happy for the addition of a suffering compatriot.

Originally, Spielberg wanted to locate the location in the UK. But the British Ministry of Defence refused to provide assistance to the crew and other aspects. He had to choose Ireland because the Irish military promised to send more than 1,000 soldiers to assist in the filming, most of whom have also participated in films such as "Brave Heart".

In addition, it is military training for the actors.

"Essentially speaking. You are not actors now, you have to think about the problem with the mind of a soldier, although it is very difficult to truly become such a person!"

Ryan, Tom Hanks, Giovanni Rebis and others stood in a row, listening to the routine training of the former Marine Corps Captain Dale Day.

On the second day after entering the crew, Ryan was like other actors. Started basic military training, even if the role he chose did not have too many scenes.

Ryan and others need to quickly integrate into the environment of the film. In order to enter the role as soon as possible, they even learned how to use weapons, individual tactics, and the military's codewords and sign language during World War II.

Frankly speaking, these are not too difficult for Ryan, the actual training life is the real test.

Training strokes, meals and sleeping on the street is the norm, just like a real army. Ryan and others have to carry 40 pounds of equipment every day, march three miles in a hurry, not only have no beds when sleeping, but they can only live in tents, and they have daily rest periods. Strictly control within five hours, this is still preferential treatment.

Although it’s a bit bitter and tired, it’s good for younger people like Ryan to say that after all, you can stick with your teeth, but to Tom Hanks, it’s like hell. Every rush march is a test. .

However, the spirit of the team always works at this time.

"If a teammate is in trouble, then you must stop and help him!"

At this time, the former Marine Corps captain always said a big reason, "The army is not a movie. There is no room for individual heroism here. Team spirit is the fundamental guarantee of victory!"

After the rapid march, meals are often only available. For these actors who are used to enjoying the food, the food can only be said to be horrible.

"Beans, canned beef, canned peanut butter, canned tomatoes..."

Sitting in the open space in front of the tent, Ryan looked at the few foods he had and gestured to a few teammates, "Hey, guys, what do you want to eat?"

"I can't control what they want."

Ryan’s shaper flashed like a ghost and reminded him, “Don’t forget, Ryan, you have to lose five pounds. You can’t touch any meat...”

"God!" Ryan covered his face, the canned food is already unpalatable enough, even beef must be banned, it is really better than death, "Can I only eat canned beans and tomatoes?"

"Don't complain, Ryan." Tom Hanks unceremoniously snatched the canned beef from Ryan's hands. "We envy your full protein and vitamin nutrition package."

After a meal, only a few minutes of rest is the routine weapon training time.

Although live ammunition is not required, the aiming and other postures must at least look decent. Although the crew uses old antiques, Ryan is quite interested.

These are real firearms, and the props team found more than 700 m1 Garland and Chicago typewriters, in addition to many m1901 pistols.

Needless to say, the professional ability of the team that Spielberg convened, as they couldn't find a real Tiger tank, these guys bought two T34 tanks from Russia and forcibly refitted their appearance to look like a Tiger tank.

This kind of war epic must be a big investment and a big production. DreamWorks not only recruited Jenkins Pictures to co-produce it, but also accepted investment from Paramount Pictures. The three parties each took out about one-third of the funds.

At the end of August, Ryan asked for a leave of absence from the USC Film Academy. When the military training came to an end, a man named Van Diesel didn’t know how to get through Spielberg’s relationship. , Joined the ranks of Ryan and his party.

Even Spielberg asked the screenwriter Robert Rodart to add a role specifically for him.

This kind of situation is not uncommon. In Hollywood, relatives are always more popular than pure newcomers. However, the appearance of this guy has inspired the gossip enthusiasm of the crew.

"Ryan, this guy won't be Stephen's illegitimate child, right?" Tom Hanks was of course joking. Because of his relationship with Spielberg, he would often make fun of old Jewish men.

"It's not possible." Ryan tapped the canned beans with a spoon, and he was very cooperative and put on a serious thinking appearance. After a while, he said, "This guy looks like a mulatto. Stephen's taste doesn't seem to be that heavy. Right?"

"That's not true, Stephen..." In just a few minutes, Tom Hanks broke out some absurd things about Spielberg when he was young. These are super gossips that are rarely circulated outside the circle. .

Ryan's military training lasted for ten days, and he successfully lost five pounds. The whole person looked thinner.

"Hi, Nicole, how long hasn't seen you since then, can't you recognize it?"

Walking out of the temporary ‘barracks’, Ryan saw Nicole Kidman who came to visit the class, and the distress in the eyes of the Australian girl passed away.

"Why did the movie become like this before shooting?"

There are people coming and going, Nicole can't do anything, just the hand that is holding Ryan's arm takes extra effort.

"While making war films, you always have to look like soldiers, and you have to suffer a little bit." Ryan didn't care. He whispered a few words of comfort, and then asked, "Your shots are finished?"

"Well~ it was over a few days ago, there was not much." Nicole turned to look around, and whispered in his ear, "Where is your room?"

"Uh..." Ryan scratched his cheek, where he has a room, and has been living in a collective tent recently, "That..."

"Ryan!"

Suddenly Tom Hanks's voice came out from behind, and then the others chased him up, "Oh, Nicole, so you are here, just so hurry up! Something has happened!"

Something big? What's the big deal? Can Tom Hanks be so anxious? Could it be Spielberg's accident?

Many unreliable thoughts flashed in Ryan's head took Nicole's hand, followed Tom Hanks, and walked towards a temporary office of the dramatist.

Tom Hanks was so fast that he almost ran, obviously very anxious in his heart.

"What the **** happened, Tommy?" Nicole couldn't help but ask, stepping on high heels.

"It's your Royal Highness."

Your Royal Highness? Ryan woke up in an instant. Although he did not remember the exact time when the Princess of Wales had an accident, he roughly remembered it was the end of August.

Did things in the previous life really happen? Will Diana escape?

Just in Ryan’s cranky thoughts, he and Nicole followed Tom Hanks into the office and saw several people including Spielberg standing in front of the TV. It is a special news program of TV 1...()
