Time finally entered 2009. An extremely large crew was still entrenched on the gypsum desert in New Mexico. In the deserted desert far away from the tourist area, Duke and thousands of people were busy shooting.

There is the desert smoke, car chase gun battles, long-range snipers, melee battles, heavy metal rock, saturation overflowing screen tones, and perfect golden section composition.

But Duke knew very well that "Rampant Road" was a true hero film.

He always kept this in mind during the shooting.

In the next half month, Duke continued to shoot, using imax cameras and various digital cameras to fully include the amazing action performances and racing scenes of the stunt actors from all angles.

To this day, the crew's shots have been taken together for nearly 160 hours, which means they can only finish watching these things for a week without sleep.

However, the shooting was only two-thirds completed.

In the desolate desert, the war machine was quietly stopped there. Charlize Theron walked to the edge of the sand dune with a dirty and shabby blanket, facing everyone's back. She looked up and looked into the distance. Although she looked a little disappointed in losing the oasis, she was still extremely firm, just as she resolutely led the five fertilizers on this violent road.

Where is the future of this doomsday world? No one can explain it clearly.

Duke sat behind an IMAX camera and personally controlled the shooting, pointing his camera at Tom Cruise.

There is no doubt that Tom Cruise's protagonist, Tom, is an extremely taciturn person. He looked at Charlize Theron's tall and strong back, stood up and walked over.

This is also the scene where the male and female protagonists talk the most.

The imax camera slowly slides and moves along the slide rail to the front of Charlize Theron and Tom Cruise. Duke captures every expression on their faces through the lens.

The large microphone used for live recording was also slowly sent by the boom to directly above Charlize Theron and Tom Cruise's heads.

"I've talked to other people." Charlize Theron did not look back at Tom Cruise, but said, "Now is the best opportunity to cross the desert. If we leave the truck here and set off on a motorcycle, we can drive at least one hundred and sixty days..."

She turned her head and looked at Tom Cruise, who had his hands on his hips. He said, "We're leaving you one, filled with gas."

Charlize retracted his gaze and looked at the ground, his voice still low. "You are very welcome to join us."

Tom Cruise still looked like he was paralyzed, and he shook his head and refused, "No, no... I will leave by myself."

Looking up, Charlize Theron showed a little disappointment on his face, but without any urgency. She turned around and walked towards the place where the women were without hesitation.

"Do you know?" Tom Cruise spoke again, "It's a mistake to hold hope."

Hearing this, Charlize stopped and turned around. Tom Cruise also turned around. The two of them collided and looked at each other. Tom Cruise turned around and said, "If you can't change the status quo, you can only be defeated by reality."

Duke controlled the camera, gave the two people a close-up on their faces, and then stood up, "cut! This one has passed!"

Without waiting for the crew to take a breath, Duke shouted again, "Transfer, and the next shot will be taken in fifteen minutes."

The next one is the hero who changes his mind and goes to chase the heroine and his group.

The previous shot is night, and the next shot is daytime, which is very common in Hollywood crew shooting. Under non-essential conditions, Duke's evening scenes are basically taken during the day, and then the background is adjusted through post-production.

The entire crew cooperated tacitly, and just arrived in fifteen minutes. Duke shouted to start.

This is a close-up shot, Tom Cruise stood between the motorcycle and the war machine, looking at the dust raised by the motorcycle in the distance, and finally changed his mind.

Similarly, there will be no fantasy little girls here. In Duke's hands, "The Furious Road" is a completely unique film. Tom Cruise's character is a taciturn and struggling character, and the conscience in his heart has not been completely erased.

After filming the scene where he caught up with Charlize Theron and others, the crew finally left the hellish desert and returned to the vicinity of the Devil Farm. Although it was also a wasteland, it was like a paradise compared to the desert area.

Almost all of them are action scenes. Except for the very few scenes that need to be synthesized, most of the scenes need to be shot in real life. The stunt actors perform juggling scenes every day, and scenes of collisions, overturns and explosions are endless, and there are also people who are injured in the middle.

However, the crew's safety protection is done quite well, and almost all the injured are minor injuries such as bumps and procrastination.

Charlize Theron also had an accident. When filming the scene where she climbed onto the 'Gigabit Horse' and killed the immortal old Joe, she accidentally fell out of the car.

When shooting this scene, the car was of course still, and the ground was protected enough, but the 'gigabit horse' was a bit high. When Charlize Theron fell down, his knee fell first on the mat.

If it were an ordinary person, it would be nothing, but Charlize Theron had suffered a knee injury in his early years and left the ballet school because of this. She was so painful that she was in a state of pain that she rolled down her forehead.

Duke quickly sent her to a hospital in Santa Fe. After a careful examination, he felt relieved. The situation was not serious.

The shooting time was tight, so there was a dedicated person to take care of Charlize Theron. Duke returned to the Devil Farm to continue his work and planned to adjust the remaining shooting plan. But what he didn't expect was that just two days later, Charlize Theron returned to the crew.

"I said I'd like to give you a rest."

Looking at Charlize sitting opposite him, Duke's face was a little gloomy, "Don't forget, your leg was seriously injured in his early years."

"The film is going to participate in the Cannes Film Festival..." Charlize Theron didn't watch Duke at all, and turned his eyes to the shooting venue directed by Anna Prinz. "I don't want to delay your plan because of my problems. Besides, all my action scenes have been completed, and the remaining literary scenes do not require leg strength."

Duke thought for a few seconds and nodded slowly, "You should pay attention to it yourself."

After saying that, he stood up and looked at Charlize Theron again, strode towards the shooting site, never looking back.

Charlize Theron sat in the chair without looking back, but just sighed softly.

She knew very well that with her and Duke's character, what was gone was the past and she could never come back.

When she was young, she thought that becoming famous and career were more important than anything else, so she could not care about anything else. As she grew older, she gradually realized that career was important, but things that had passed by her were equally important.

Since she made a choice, Charlize Theron would not regret it, and she knew that regret was useless.

After all, he was a person with a firm will and a heart of iron.

Charlize Theron watched Ivanka Trump coldly. From the beginning, she was not optimistic about Duke and Ivanka Trump.

Although she hasn't seen her several times, she has heard of Donald Trump's character and has also seen him touching Duke's bottom line again and again. With Duke's character and principles of doing things, how can she tolerate it without limit? There are also instant sharing, which involves too many differences of interest...

After working hard in Hollywood, which has infinitely magnified the battle between fame and fortune, Charlize has seen it very clearly. When Duke makes many decisions, he must consider interests. He represents not only himself, but the interests of the entire team.

As smart as Charlize, of course you can see that the problem between Duke and Ivanka and Trump is actually the conflict between two different capital groups on the interests of the conflict. This contradiction cannot be resolved at all unless one party is willing to give up on its own initiative.

But is it possible to let capital give up its pursuit of interests?

Take a look at the actions Duke did next, fully revealing the side of the capital. He exchanged the instantly shared equity in his hand for Google's shares. This was such a recognized successful transaction. After Google obtained the majority of the instantly shared voting equity, at the latest shareholder meeting, he rushed Ivanka Trump from the position of the company's chairman and completed control of the instantly shared.

If Duke couldn't see this when he sold his shares to Google, Charlize wouldn't believe anything.

She has been paying attention to this matter. Due to the economic downturn, the Trump family's real estate industry encountered a serious crisis. Donald Trump was collected by many creditors, and the entire group was facing a bankruptcy crisis. It is said that Ivanka Trump was preparing to sell his instantly shared equity to save the entire Trump group.

Charlize Theron turned around and looked at Duke sitting behind the director's monitor. Who can tell whether he is behind this?

With her knowledge of Duke, he would never be just a spectator.

He always acts in his style of doing things when he treats the enemy with stern and ruthlessness, seizes all opportunities he can seize and launches the most deadly attacks.

"Boom..."

A huge explosion sounded, and a modified car on the other side of the set was blown into the sky. Charlize did not react at all. She had long been used to working in this kind of environment. She had seen this kind of explosion scene countless times when she was filming "The Matrix" and visiting the set later.

Her eyes were taken back from the set. I don’t know what happened, but suddenly she thought of David Ellison. She heard Tina Fee talk about the new film that the other party collaborated with Spielberg, and seemed to want to collide with "The Road of Furious" head-on... (To be continued.)
