Chapter 442: This shot, the Oscars will definitely remember you!

In front of the director's camera position, Lin Mo stared at the monitor, the smile on his face impossible to hide.

This shot was simply perfect, flawless.

Chen Xing and Yan Xu beside him exchanged a glance, both clearly aware—Director Lin was genuinely satisfied.

You have to know, usually even if he filmed well, Director Lin would at most nod and say 'not bad'.

But today, he smiled as if he'd found a treasure.

Looking the other way, Re Ba's assistant Yuan Yuan clenched her phone, not daring to move.

The number of viewers in the live stream had already surged to 20 million, the comments flooding so thickly they couldn't be made out.

"Holy shit!!!"

"Such a huge building, just blown up?"

"??????"

"Huh?"

"Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit!"

"Damn, is Director Lin always this violent when filming?"

"I'm blown away, the most awesome thing is this actor, right? His acting is too awesome!!!"

"!"

"I'm completely numb!"

"......"

The viewers all said they were dumbfounded.

Not to mention these viewers.

Even Re Ba.

She too was dumbfounded.

Although...

Re Ba had already prepared herself, knowing this scene would be explosive.

But... she never imagined it would be this explosive.

This is really blowing up a building.

Re Ba looked at the screen full of comments, couldn't help laughing, adjusted her mood, and said to the phone camera: "How about it, weren't you all shaken by this scene? Isn't it especially exciting? Especially Heath Ledger's acting—it's awesome! And the explosion just now suddenly paused for a moment; I thought the blasting crew had a problem, but it turned out to be part of the plot design!"

Indeed, the explosion sound just now suddenly stopped, and Re Ba froze for a moment, thinking something had gone wrong.

As it turned out, she was overthinking.

Domestically, the Heroic Youth production crew, Jiang Wen, Ge You and a few others also watched the earlier livestream.

Shocking!

They never expected Director Lin to actually blow up such a huge building.

"It has to be Director Lin!" Liao Fan said with feeling.

This kind of live-action footage...

If it were another director, really few would dare to shoot like this.

"Director Lin is too awesome!"

Ge Daye also couldn't help blurting out a curse.

Jiang Wen just smiled and said: "When it comes to live-action, you still have to look to my younger brother!"

To be frank...

Since, after he saw his younger brother often doing live-action...

Jiang Wen also wondered if his own movie could be done like that.

But...

After thinking, better forget it.

No money, so poor!

Besides, the films he makes aren't commercial ones; there's really no need for it.

Why not? When will he also make a commercial film to try it out?

Right now, online.

Lin Mo's live-action footage of the exploding hospital building quickly went viral across major social platforms.

Weibo hot search, hot list—it shot to the top in minutes!

#LinMoBlowingUpBuildingLiveAction#?

#HeathLedgerActing#

#LiveActionManiacLinMo#

The heat exploded!

Countless onlookers, seeing the hot search, flooded into the live stream.

"Will you still film the explosion scene later?"

"Holy crap, I just went to play a game and forgot all about this..."

"I came after watching the video clip, and the live stream is still going!"

"Coming from Weibo, is Director Lin filming a movie or a documentary? He really blew up a building?! This is too hardcore!"

"Director Lin truly lives up to being a live-action maniac—this effect, special effects can't compare!"

"How much money does this cost?"

"......"

After filming the hospital explosion scene, the set remained filled with a tense and busy atmosphere.

Fire trucks were already in place, and firefighters quickly got to work, ensuring there were no safety hazards on site.

The explosives crew staff also carefully inspected the debris after the blast, confirming all blast points had been safely handled, while the production crew busied themselves cleaning the site, moving equipment, and preparing the set for the next scene.

"Heath, your performance just now was amazing!" Cheng Long gave Heath Ledger a thumbs up.

In this scene, Heath Ledger completely brought the Joker character to life.

Hearing Cheng Long's praise, Heath Ledger hurriedly replied modestly: "No, no, you're overpraising me..."

Although Cheng Long usually puts on no airs on set, often joking around and chatting with them.

But don't forget.

Standing before him is the superstar known as "To Live"!

Jackie Chan!

His idol!

Jason and Bell both gave Heath Ledger a thumbs up.

Especially Bell, who laughed and said: "Heath, your acting skills really put me under tremendous pressure; it seems that in future scenes with you, I'll have to give it my all..."

He hadn't finished speaking when Jason beside him interjected: "Your scenes with Heath are all spent wearing Batman armor, and the audience can't see your face, so you just need to deliver your lines, right?"

Hearing that, Bell realized and slapped his forehead: "Exactly!"

In the film, his scenes opposite Heath Ledger...

are all fully armored Batman suits, showing only a pair of eyes, so there's no need to worry about not keeping up with Heath Ledger's acting.

Really...

He's scaring himself.

Here, the follow-up handover work is handed over to his two assistant directors.

Lin Mo then walked over.

He expressed great approval of Heath Ledger's performance just now.

It's practically identical to the original film, and he even feels it slightly surpasses it.

Mainly, for this scene, Lin Mo and Heath Ledger had discussed it many times beforehand; one could say Lin Mo acted out the effect he wanted for Heath Ledger to see, then added his own insight, resulting in that perfect shot.

As for the explosion pausing briefly during filming, that was arranged in the script.

In his previous life, although online rumors have long claimed that this scene had problems with the explosives crew during filming, and Heath Ledger's improvisation saved the scene, which the director kept.

As for the specifics, Lin Mo doesn't know.

But he feels this shot is necessary to include, as it well demonstrates the complexity of the Joker character.

"Heath, you did it; I'm confident that your performance just will definitely be seen by the organizers of the Oscars!" Lin Mo smiled and walked over to say to Heath Ledger.

He's not just giving Heath Ledger empty promises.

After all.

In his previous life, he truly won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor thanks to this role.
