A fierce battle scene was completed, and the crew temporarily entered a rest phase. After watching the footage just shot, Duke inspected, sat in the winter sunshine in the ruins, holding a cup of hot coffee. The unhappiness caused by the interruption of the shooting in the morning disappeared completely at this time. Instead, he was chatting happily with Tom Hanks and Leonardo DiCaprio. +◆

“Are we a little too much?”

Leonardo's young face was still full of youth, "Will such an explosion have a bad impact?"

"Impact?" Duke seemed strange, with an expression that we did nothing. "We just took the film according to the schedule. We can't have a holiday today because of the change of the plan, right?"

"That's the reason."

Probably the most affected person before, Tom Hanks now fully agrees with Duke's words, "My time is also very tight, and it is impossible to delay the role indefinitely. The Oscar nomination will be announced in a few days, and I will have to go back to North America."

"Do you need to congratulate you in advance?"

Hearing Duke's words, Tom Hanks shook his head, "Congratulations, Duke, you have already won the North American box office champion last year."

After entering 1995, Independence Day, which was still screened in nearly 200 theaters in North America, after nearly half a year of accumulation and hard work, the box office in North America finally exceeded the $357.06 million of Jurassic Park, reaching $359.91 million, creating the best North American box office results in recent years. At the same time, it beat the already lower-level "The Lion King" and "Forrest Gump" and firmly held the 1994 North American box office champion in the hands.

The global box office of the film has accumulated a total of US$888.85 million. Although most overseas markets have ended screenings, many remote countries are still trying to converge their money and impact the first box office record in the history of "Jurassic Park".

These are indeed capitals worth congratulations, and the main actors of the crew are willing to endure the deployment of such a workaholic director. Because once "Save Private Ryan" is sold well, they will also become part of the benefits.

The sound of leather shoes stepping on the rubble sounded, Duke turned to see, Robin Grande was coming.

"Is there something wrong?" Duke asked.

Unless there is something important, the two producers are both invisible men on the crew.

"The crew of "Brave Heart" is here." Robin Grande said, avoiding a triangular building ruin. "I want to talk to you."

"Who is the person who came here?"

Not only Duke asked, but Tom Hanks next to him also showed his interest, after all, he was the one who was directly affected in the morning.

"Not Mel Gibson."

Perhaps because I have been together for a long time, I can occasionally guess Duke’s bad thoughts. Robin Grande shook his head and said, “It’s Bruce Davis, an executive producer of “Brave Heart.”

Hearing this, Duke lost interest, "Robin. Let Charles go and see him, probably he will be happy. You all know where my bottom line is."

“Our shooting plan will not be changed.”

After saying this, Robin Grande went to find Charles Rowan.

Leonardo DiCaprio, who was sitting behind the side, heard these words completely in his ears. The corners of his mouth could not stop trembling. It seemed that the young director in front of him was a little vengeful. After changing the plan, they would shoot the ending war scene in the next few days. There were many explosions in it. If the crew next door would not be affected, he would rather believe that Duke Rosenberg was a good person.

He also got up and left here. As soon as he returned to the actor's rest, he heard the shocked news from some people who were particularly informed.

Just when the crew was filming the explosion scene, the horse next door used for filming was frightened, not only destroying the set, but also causing many people to be injured to varying degrees. Among them, Sean Connery, the most injured, may have a comminuted fracture of his right leg...

Looking up at the direction when he came, Leonardo saw the young director talking and laughing with Tom Hanks, and seemed not to take what happened next door seriously at all. It seemed that all this had nothing to do with the crew of "Save Private Ryan". It seemed that Sean Connery's injury was completely an accident...

This... is Hollywood? Competition within and outside the rules is everywhere. If you want to climb up and succeed like Duke Rosenberg and Tom Hanks, you cannot be afraid of all kinds of competitions? You have to step on your opponent's head?

The young Leonardo DiCaprio seems to have a deeper understanding of this circle.

Duke re-summoned the actors and departments to start filming. On the other side, Charles Rowan met Bruce Davis, who was representing Mel Gibson.

"Sorry, Bruce." Charles Rowan said slowly, "In the morning, in order not to affect the shooting of "Brave Heart", director Rosenberg had to adjust the shooting plan. The distance between our sets was far enough so that the impact of each other might be minimized."

"The problem is that your shooting has affected us!" Bruce Davis looked angry, "The explosions you keep creating have seriously affected our shooting. Our horses were frightened by your explosion! Sean Connery fell off his horse and was seriously injured!"

"As you mean..." Charles Rowan's face turned serious, "The crew of "Save Private Ryan" is responsible for this?"

"There is no question of responsibility," Bruce Davis's tone was not very good, "but you have seriously affected Director Gibson. We should sit down and discuss shooting plans that are acceptable to both sides."

"I mean that in the morning." Charles Rowan snorted low, and continued without waiting for the other party to speak, "You should know the nickname of director Rosenberg by the media and movie fans. We will shoot war scenes in the next few weeks, and a lot of preparations are ready. If the adjustment is done, it will definitely bring losses. Who is responsible for this part of the loss?"

"you……"

Bruce Davis felt angry and rushed to his forehead. He was still filming a literary drama in the morning, but the war drama was only a temporary change...

"We can only say sorry!"

Hearing Charles Rowan's rather cold words, Bruce Davis understood that it was difficult to resolve through negotiation, so he simply said, "We will complain to the union for your bad behavior!"

These faint threatening words also aroused Charles Rowan's anger. He was fooled by Mel Gibson in the morning and was full of anger.

"Okay!" He stared at the other party, "As a member of the producers' alliance, since a serious safety accident occurred in a crew, I think I have an obligation to truthfully react to the actors' union!"

The injury of Sean Connery and others is indeed related to "Save Private Ryan", but from a legal perspective, it has nothing to do with it. Moreover, this is Ireland, not North America!

Seeing Bruce Davis leaving unwillingly, Charles Rowan felt much more comfortable. The shame of being fooled in the morning was returned to the other party by Duke in just half a day. This was simply the best way to fight back.

As for Sean Connery's broken leg, he didn't care at all. What if the other person complained to the union? And behind "Save Private Ryan", there are three giants, Warner Bros., Walt Disney and Twentieth Century Fox!

What will happen in the future of "Brave Heart"? Duke didn't plan to care about it at all. When he heard the news that Sean Connery broke his leg, he was a little surprised and continued to shoot it himself. No matter what the other party is, he made up his mind to finish the ending battle first and then talk about other things.

As for whether it will disrupt Mel Gibson's shooting plan, it is just like the other party's reaction after Charles Rowan negotiates, no matter what he does!

Gunshots, cannons, explosions, and the next week, were still the theme of the set.

"Now clear the site, and unrelated personnel are retreating to four hundred feet away!"

Looking up at the abandoned bell tower, Duke personally held the loudspeaker and issued an order, "John, your No. 1 camera is fifteen degrees left, and capture it with the medium shot! Ben, I want a wide-angle close-up! David, pay attention to capture the tank!"

The film crew was busy and the prop team was also debugging modified tanks. The fireworks team had already reached the bell tower to arrange a blasting point. In order to blow up the half-collapsed abandoned building, the fireworks team reused military explosives, which was also the reason why Duke had to retreat as much as possible without any personnel.

When the setting is built here, special photography spots are reserved, and there are certain protective measures, so there is no need to worry about the threat of blown gravel.

After nearly a month of running-in, the team has found the best rhythm and state. Although the constant explosions have indeed tormented people's nerves, as the person who followed Duke to shoot the third movie in a row, he has adapted to working in this noisy environment. Even if he occasionally makes some minor mistakes, he can still complete his work in quality and quantity.

After receiving the notification from Jos William, Duke called for a cleanup again. After confirming that the departments were correct, he notified that the shooting began.

The German tank, modified from Soviet-made T-34 tanks, slowly turned its guns and aimed at the direction of the bell tower. A burst of smoke flashed by, and the top of the abandoned bell tower exploded violently, and gravel flew into the sky. The small half of the bell tower collapsed directly and smashed hard on the building ruins on the ground, stirring up countless dust, and the small half of the set was covered with a layer of dust.

Duke came out of the main camera with a dirt-faced look. Regardless of the wet towels sent by his assistant, he walked to the director's monitor first and checked the shots he just shot. This time, the fierce explosion in a small range was quite good overall effect.

"for you."

When he raised his head from the monitor, Sofia Coppola handed over the wet towel that was still steaming in time. Duke took it and wiped it on her face, and then she continued, "I just received a call from Nancy. "Independence Day" has won several awards nominations."
