Every man has a dream of heroism, and Chen Tian is no exception. The reason why the United States produces superheroes is closely related to the personal heroism they advocate.

Heroism is the spiritual and cultural characteristic of American society. It emphasizes individual values ​​and free and unrestrained thoughts, which are rooted in the minds of young Americans. Even their education emphasizes this value. Naturally, movies, novels, comics, etc. are indispensable, and it is obviously more positive than idol dramas.

It is precisely in this situation where Americans create one American dream after another without distinguishing between high and low, and just working hard, which is also the key to the rapid development of the US economy.

If "Spider-Man" is a model of civilian superheroes, then "Iron Man" is the ultimate of rich heroes. As for "Batman", Chen Tian has been brought into another dark realm.

Many high-end weapons are used in the filming of "Iron Man".

In China, it is almost impossible for private film companies that have no connection to rent top military equipment for shooting. In the United States, as long as you have money, this is not a problem at all.

Among the major military regions in the United States, each military region has its own intermediary agencies that contact the film and television industries. These agencies work in an office building on Wilsha Avenue in Westwood District, and the intermediary agencies of the Ministry of National Defense are the most famous of them.

As the main representative of the American cultural industry, Hollywood movies are an important way to promote American culture and the best channel and means to maintain and enhance the American world image. However, the recent Iraq War has caused the image of the US government to deteriorate rapidly. In the movies, they no longer beautify the US military, they have become clowns, poor people, and executioners.

Because the death toll has exceeded one thousand, this has put the US military recruitment in trouble again this year. The Pentagon has also begun to actively seek cooperation with Hollywood, trying to reverse the United States' impression of being a "bully" in the world. The Ministry of Defense is the most standardized organization. In order to meet the needs of weapons and equipment in the film industry when shooting movies, the website of the Ministry of Defense agency even clearly marks the rental prices of weapons and equipment platforms.

Chen Tian was still a little worried. He originally thought that it would be difficult to contact the US military with the nature of the matrix company, and at least it would be somewhat hindered. Unexpectedly, Kevin Feige just took a checkbook to attend a military party of the White House and successfully got everything done.

You can get whatever you want. The President's Air Force One has a clear price of $72,000 per hour. The 22 fighter rental fee is $25,000 per hour. There is even a Global Hawk drone available for use. They constantly provide weapons and aircraft, and give pilots free of charge for shooting, and there will be fuel money left, which is a completely one-stop service.

This is capitalism, sometimes simply cute, isn't it?

In the original time and space, "Iron Man" was a fight in downtown Los Angeles, but there was no policeman or a soldier, and even a reporter car did not appear. This is far from the scene where reporters can be seen everywhere in "Spider-Man".

Although these plots have been used up and are very bloody, these are just some fun. "How can superheroes be missing reporters?" You played so beautifully. Of course, you need enough audiences to support them.

Moreover, in order to increase the logical persuasion of the film, the movie even set the most exciting battle scene at night. When Chen Tiandu saw this dimly lit scene in the cinema, he felt that the director was completely avoiding the cost and making the two major robots a fight between street hooligans...

The big scene, the big final battle, the climax, the most outstanding essence of the entire superhero movie and the scene that the audience is most looking forward to, but cannot be released in full. This is simply a crime!

Chen Tiandu's movies have always been selling points with constant climax.

If he filmed like this, he would probably be scolded to death by his fans.

Having said so much... In short, it's going to be cool, it's going to explode, it's going to destroy the Avenue of Stars, and it's going to destroy Hollywood! Then... come with an air force formation, an army armored unit, and a naval missile submarine that just happened to cruise to the waters near Los Angeles!

With such a huge lineup, coupled with the high-tech Mark1, the production cost of the film has also risen sharply. The final budget specification has exceeded 160 million US dollars.

But no one has any doubts about this level.

Compared to a blockbuster, such a budget is considered qualified. What's more, Chen Tian's offer is only the lowest price of 2+2. In Hollywood today, even if he offers a price of 3+2 or even 4+2 for himself, someone will probably rush to ask for it.

Dare to question this production fee, have you lived to the end?

...

The film was filmed in California. Originally, the opinions of Marvel's main creators were first chosen by New York. But Chen Tian felt that there were too many heroes filming on the East Coast. New York is indeed very charming, but California is not bad. Maybe it can also make Iron Man idling around Las Vegas.

Boeing founder Howard Hughes is the prototype of Tony Stark.

He was also considered a representative figure of that era: a great inventor, adventurer, millionaire, romantic saint, and definitely a madman.

Stan Lee proudly told Chen Tiandu, "The reason for creating the character Iron Man is that I want to create a character different from ordinary superheroes. Young people can like him because Tony is rich, handsome, funny, and charming. At the same time, I deliberately designed his heart to be very fragile so that he won't look too perfect, and readers will also care more about his safety. As a result, you know, readers react very well. Among all Marvel comic characters, Iron Man has received the most letters from female comic fans. Readers of all ages care about the humanity of this character, so, Chen, it's best not to make Tony Stark too powerful..." He was really worried that Chen Tian has not yet emerged from the state of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

Chen Tian patted his shoulder, and a slight smile was considered a promise.

It can be seen that the old man has no desires in the rest of his life, especially these works that are regarded as children have been brought to the big screen one by one. But he still does not want his works to be tampered with randomly, so he has many advices to Chen Tian.

Of course, Chen Tian would give him enough respect, but he is the boss and the director.

Since he has chosen "Iron Man", he also hopes that the movie will be perfect without anyone else's words.

The character "Iron Man" is not only very popular, but he is also the only self-service superhero in the Marvel series, because his superpowers all come from the iron suit made by the male protagonist Tony Stark himself.

There may be many reasons for how a superhero can be established, but an opponent with enough weight is the most important thing.

Marvel has created thousands of comic characters for so many years, among which the relationship between characters is messy, and some are not in the same time and space. It would be very troublesome to clarify the relationship between thousands of people... or it would be impossible.

It is too difficult to find an opponent of equal strength for "Iron Man". Don't have so many fantasy colors and try to be more realistic. The classic villains in the original comics, such as "Titan Man" and "Crimson Mecha", were all considered, but in the end they chose the "Iron Overlord" who is less famous as the same villain in time and space. The real person is Obadaiya Stan, as the main enemy of "Iron Man" in this episode.

Obadaiya also has his own armor and is a businessman in the same era as Tony Stark. But Chen Tiandu's version of Obadai will definitely be different. He is a big director and will not create a film that is full of 90 minutes of Robert Downey Jr.'s face to support the scene.

...

The historically significant "Movie Road" and the Platform of Playa Vista are located in Penang, California, which are the original address of Edward Air Force Base, one of the main filming locations. The two platform landscapes that often appear in the film have historical origins with Howard Hughes.

Now, a scene being filmed here is where Tony Stark was captured and forced to create Jericho missiles for the Middle East thugs.

In order to present the realistic landscape he wanted, Chen Tiandu talked a lot with Michael Riva, who was the art director. The steep cave-like scene he hosted has come in handy.

At this time, Robert Downey Jr. had just woken up from the hole. Chen Tian was sitting behind the monitor on the other side, picked up the horn and shouted: "Genius, it's time for you to show your acting skills. You are not a billionaire or a playboy now, but a prisoner."

"You are so nagging. Are married men who become talkative uncles like this? Can you start?"

Chen Tian smiled, "Congratulations, you are already a chatterbox before you walk into the church with Susan. Since you can't wait, let's start, I'm waiting to see the good show."

Donny ignored him by tying his middle finger.

Robert Downey Jr. in the camera immediately entered the state. In the camera, he struggled violently from a nightmare, and his face was truly dreaming of hell repeatedly. Then he suddenly woke up, his skin was pale and his face was sweaty.

He took a breath with force, his throat was dry and itchy, as if he hadn't drunk water for a long time. His head was drowsy and he looked around, his hands were clutching around, and then he naturally found the wires connected to his chest. He tore it hard, but it brought more pain to himself.

Susan, one of the producers next to her, felt a little distressed when watching it. Although it was a performance, the experience came from real life.
