"Chu, I've never paid attention to Bernini's design of funerals before. Valentina seemed to be a little enlightened by Chu Shun's words, especially when Chu Shun said this, her eyelids drooped, and it seemed to her that she was reading death.

Nonsense, who would pay attention to this in a normal person? If it weren't for Chu Shun watching a short video, he saw a marketing account saying this, who would pay attention, I thought about it just now, and then I remembered it.

"It's normal that everybody has a different focus, so that's what makes everyone unique. Chu Shun said.

"So that's the director's perspective on things?" Valentina asked, "Why did the director choose me as the heroine, I mean I've never acted, and I will shoot commercials a lot of times." ”

"Beautiful. Chu Shun said straightly: "Because of your beauty, this movie exists." ”

To tell the truth, you must know that "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", the original name of Italy is "Malena", there is no heroine, there is no hair.

Valentina didn't expect the director in front of her to speak so bluntly, and she didn't know what to say for a while, which made her quite cheerful personality.

Chu Shun didn't take the initiative to stir up the topic, because he was distracted, and the two visited the art museum side by side.

The reason for being distracted is that Chu Shun has always felt that the translators in the mainland, especially the translators of movie titles, are of a very high level, and many movie titles that you listen to with full artistic conception are thanks to the translators.

For example, "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", and "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" was originally called "Leon", and "One Flew Over the Asylum" was originally called "Flying Alone Over the Cuckoo's Lair".

The original name of "Dream Travel" was "Coco", which is the name of Grandma MiG, and I think it's a good name.

After the two visited the art museum, it was already an hour and a half, and Chu Shun sent Valentina back to the hotel.

At the time of separation, Valentina invited: "Chu, do you want to go up and drink a glass of red wine." ”

"Is it really a drink?" Chu Shun asked.

Valentina smiled, the good-looking young lady smiled so beautifully, especially a beauty like Valentina, she said, "Of course." ”

"Forget it, I don't like to drink wine with people in hotels. Chu Shun refused: "Next time I have a chance, I will invite you to drink." ”

"Looking forward to it. Valentina didn't have much emotion when she was rejected, she still had a smile on her face, and said, "Director Chu, I'm looking forward to cooperating with you." ”

"Me too. ”

For Chu Shun, the most difficult level, actor Xiang completed, on May 17, 2020, the opening ceremony was held in Siracusa, Sicily, Italy.

Introducing the main actors, first of all, the heroine Marlena - Valentina Binoche

Actor Reinaldo - Duband Self

Supporting role: Marlena's husband Nino - George Suger

The other actors are all third- and fourth-tier Hollywood and don't deserve to have names.

In fact, in the original version of Sicily, in addition to the male and female protagonists, other characters are very casual, such as the heroine's father, who is the producer who pulls it casually.

Dubande is a twelve-year-old boy, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, the most important thing is shyness, and there is a little bit of precocious taste, he is a child star found by the international innovation management company, don't look at this guy's young age, the salary is quite high, and he is the most famous actor in Hollywood in the crew, and he is British.

Along with it came Duband's guardian, his father, with a wide forehead and hooked nose, not the slightest politeness of an English gentleman, but rather a little mean.

Suge doesn't introduce much, he is a star in Italy, and he is quite well-known in Italy.

There are also boot-up ceremonies abroad, but it's just called "Motivation Dinner", and it always feels weird.

Eating and drinking, because the next day was going to start, so they all controlled that they didn't drink any wine, and Chu Shun had long wanted to complain, can the Western form of dinner really be full?

The venue for the motivational dinner was the lobby on the third floor of the Minareto Hotel, which was a little smaller, so the garden outside was also requisitioned.

Speaking of Chinese wine table culture, the West is different? It's just that the packaging has been changed, and it's the same all over the world.

"Director, I love this story very much, and I will definitely act well. "Suge's appearance is typical of Italy, but if you want to say how his appearance is different from that of Americans and British, you can't say, it's very subtle.

"Then I believe that you will be able to play well. Chu Shun raised a glass of sparkling water and clinked glasses with Su Ge.

Su Ge also wanted to chat with Chu Shun, but the latter really didn't want to chat, because he was not used to it, so he looked up and chatted with people, and Su Ge was 1.88 meters.

It's not good to be too tall an actor, and not everyone is Gregory Peck.

There is also this skin, which caused Chu Shun to not be able to drink, and ran to the top floor halfway through eating, overlooking the sea, and there were trees and flowers nearby, Chu Shun lowered his head to draw costume design, and props design drawings.

I have to say that after Chu Shun crossed over, his sketching ability made a qualitative leap, whether it was action design or props, he needed to draw it.

"Chu, what are you doing?"

I don't know when Valentina also came up, her blonde hair has been dyed black, this action is a bit like a GIF on the Internet, "Your little cutie is here JPG".

"Draw costumes. Chu Shun replied without raising his head: "The background of this movie is the forties, so the costumes in Sicily at that time need to be specially customized." ”

Valentina thought for a moment and said, "I haven't made a movie, but shouldn't the person who is in charge of this be the costume design practitioner of the crew?"

"Meimei, do you know what my life motto is?" Chu Shun said.

Valentina shook her head, her little head waiting for the next sentence.

"Go other people's way and let others achieve nothing. Chu Shun said.

"What?" Valentina was stunned, what the hell is this aphorism, is it human words?

"Just kidding, why are you so serious. Chu Shun said: "What I want to express myself, only I know, so I came by myself, in order to restore the art in my heart." ”

Valentina nodded, but the doubts in her eyes still did not diminish, because in this case, the director has to do it himself in many places, what is the use of just restoring the costumes?

Of course, she didn't doubt the director's words, but she just felt that the form of film was not painting, carving, writing novels, and things that were completed by many people, how could it be possible to restore the art in her heart.

Valentina thinks that the director's words are a bit exaggerated, but it is no problem to restore the heart of art, but I am afraid that it will hit a wall.

Obviously, Valentina didn't know about Chu Shun's inhuman record.

Don't look at this beautiful girl's hot body and very aggressive appearance, but she is a literary young woman in her bones, listening to Bob Dylan's songs and reading William Borrows's novels when she was a child.

The surroundings were quiet, only the tip of Chu Shun's pen was sassy, and it was recorded in Chinese, in fact, Valentina couldn't understand it, but she also watched it hard for half an hour.

"Director, then I'll go back to sleep. Valentina looked at it for a long time before she spoke.

"Be careful on the road, your agent is downstairs, right?" Chu Shun asked.

Valentina replied: "Yes, Jennifer is waiting for me below, the director is assured." ”

Chu Shun nodded, many actors are staying in hotels in Syracusea, and the hotels near here have been chartered, and the crew is also stationed here.

The liaison producer negotiated with the official Siracusa, and the square and church were contracted for filming, and it was only when the crew was set up that the locals knew that the original Chinese man was a director.

Syracuse is actually not big, to be precise, it is a small town, and of course the news is very widespread.

"Adams, you are carrying passengers, in a director, you know?"

"I can see that Chu has been going to the West Bank just to get material, and he will definitely make a good-looking movie about Sicily, and now people's influence on Sicily is the godfather, which is really not good. ”

"The Godfather 1" was released in 72, "The Godfather 2" is seventy-three years, this world exists, only The Godfather 3 was released in the nineties, this world does not, Yuan Dixing is really the same, there are before the eighties, and after the eighties, there is no.

Whether it's an investment problem or a director problem, "The Godfather 3" didn't come out anyway.

"It's whimsical, Adams, you think about it, it is impossible for a foreigner to know the beauty of Sicily. ”

Also, many movies just use this reason for Sicily, the birthplace of the mafia. ”

"Adams remembers to remind us not to discredit us in Siracusa. ”

Now the locals don't think how well Chu Shun filmed, and it will be different when the film is released.

The next day, Chu Shun started filming, which was smoother than in China and not as smooth as in the island country, and encountered problems at the beginning of filming in Sicily.

"No, Dubande has been filming for more than six hours, and you can't abuse a teenager under the age of fifteen like this. Duband's father's voice permeated the entire crew.

Character director Liang Pu said: "There is another shot, make up one shot, it won't be delayed for long." ”

"No, the contract is like this, and it's only seven hours a day. Duband's father said.

Children and animals are the most difficult to make movies abroad, the former will attract child protection organizations, and the latter will attract animal protection organizations.

Ask a famous Hollywood director, who hasn't encountered these two organizations, anyway, Chu Shun knows a realistic example, "The Wolf of Wall Street" was accused, there is a scene in the movie where the chimpanzee wears a pulley and Xiao Lizi plays, and then the animal protection organization said that the chimpanzee has suffered permanent psychological trauma.

"Papapa" Chu Shun really wanted to applaud, even the psychological trauma of chimpanzees could be detected so clearly.

Back to the topic, the filming has already been completed, but just now there is a plot that requires Dubande to make up a scene, and it is time for Dubande to get off work.

The working hours of child stars are from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., three hours of work, then a two-hour break after lunch, and filming continues until 2 p.m. until 6 p.m.

It's 6:05 now, and Dubande didn't say anything, but his father wanted to argue with the director.

Chu Shun naturally heard it, walked over to stop the dispute between the two sides, and said to Duband's father: "This scene will be filmed tomorrow." ”

"The director has the spirit of contract, I said earlier, the director you seem to be very in line with the spirit of contract. "Duband's father exaggerated.

Chu Shun felt offended, is this how the British curse?
