1134. New styling
At the end of February, the temperature in Kyoto has risen to above zero, but for many people, the temperature outside is even cooler than in winter when it is minus 10 degrees Celsius.
And in such weather, there is still a group of people who rushed to the airport in the suburbs early despite the spring cold.
They don't want to catch a plane, they go to wait for someone, and it's not their relatives, friends or colleagues who are waiting, but celebrities.
In the past three days, the airport in the suburbs of Beijing has been particularly lively, although it has been very lively here in the past, but it is not as good as these three days, because the people who come in these three days are too special.
"Lao Xiao, it's really not uncommon to see Western scenery these days. A reporter with a camera around his neck chatted with a colleague next to him.
"Not really. Lao Xiao looked at the time, stared at the exit again, and reminded the reporter who was talking to him just now: "The next flight will arrive in ten minutes, is the camera ready, don't miss the airport photos of our 'super killer girl' at that time." ”
"Don't worry, all right. ”
", when I was filming Matthew yesterday, if I hadn't reminded you that you forgot to open the lens cap, check it again for me now, you must not make a mistake. ”
"Got it, got it. Wu Dong's tone was impatient, but he had already begun to check his camera in his hand, and the application was very serious and not ambiguous at all.
He knows very well that the work of the last few days is very important, and the boss even spoke personally, and if they can stick to the tasks of these days, they can get a month's bonus.
can make the boss who is privately called Modern Grande by the members bleed, and he knows that this matter is not to be neglected, so even if Lao Xiao is very verbose, he is actually very grateful to this companion in his heart, at least if it wasn't for his reminder yesterday, he would have really made a big mistake.
After all, with their location, the opportunity to photograph those big-name Hollywood artists is less than ten seconds, and if they miss it, they can only shoot each other's backs.
This is also why Lao Xiao Qian told Wan Wan.
"To be honest, I really admire Nie Wei now, just look at the influence of others, and ask which director in Huaxia now has such energy, as soon as the audition is announced, the group of Hollywood big names who are above the top on weekdays are not all coming to our Huaxia audition. ”
"You kid still say this. Lao Xiao's face was the same as Wu Dong's, and he was full of pride.
In the past few days, they have been guarding the airport, staring at these Hollywood stars who came to China to audition, and there are almost 20 people before and after, including some first-line big names and popular new stars, such as Keanu Reeves at the beginning, and Moretz, who will arrive today, and so on.
"You said that Huayi obviously announced the audition date, and the audition will be held in Los Angeles on March 6, why do these Hollywood stars still want to go to Huaxia. ”
"Why do you say?" Lao Xiao glanced at Wu Dong and said with a smile: "Give you an example kid, the company recruited two or three positions, but more than 100 people wanted to come for an interview, the company felt that there were too many people at a time, so they wanted to divide it into two groups, do you say that you intended to be assigned to the back or to the front for the interview?"
"Of course ahead!" Wu Dong replied without thinking about it, but as soon as the words came out, he understood what Lao Xiao meant: "Are you saying that these Hollywood big names are afraid that others will steal their roles?"
"Correct. ”
"That's really a long time to see, and our Huaxia movies also have today's time for this bull X. Wu Dong couldn't help but sigh.
In the past, Chinese movies wanted to invite Hollywood big names to star, or they spent several times the salary to hire people, just like that, people don't necessarily want to act, many times the Hollywood stars that appear in Chinese movies are said to be Hollywood first-line when they are promoted, but in fact, they are mostly second-tier or literary film stars, and there are few real big names.
Like this time, Keanu Reeves, Brad Pitt, etc., are all real Hollywood first-line big names.
"Don't talk about it, the plane is on the ground, ready to shoot. ”
There is no need for Lao Xiao to remind him, the restless crowd nearby has already made Wu Dong's muscles tense, and more than half of the people waiting at the exit are reporters, Wu Dong has not counted, but Lao Xiao said that at least forty or fifty media at the scene are guarding the exit every day like them.
A few minutes later, a small and delicate figure appeared, and Wu Dong instinctively raised the camera and pressed the shutter.
And when these Hollywood stars came to Nie Wei, Nie Wei was accompanying Zhang Ziyi in the beauty salon, because of the needs of the plot, Nie Wei felt that Zhang Ziyi's waist-length hair was not suitable, so she suggested that she shave shorter.
Zhang Ziyi also felt that what Nie Wei said was right, so she immediately agreed, and the two agreed on a date to come to the beauty salon together.
It's not that Zhang Ziyi thinks it's terrible to cut her hair, she has to be accompanied by Nie Wei, how many years of seniority she has been in the circle, she is not a fledgling girl for a long time, cutting her hair is like cutting her head, Zhang Ziyi has long been used to cutting hair, calling Nie Wei to come, and just wanting to listen to his advice, after all, Nie Wei is a screenwriter, and the role is created by him, and he knows best what kind of image the character should have.
"I don't think it's good to be too long, but it's not good to be too short, how about shoulder-to-shoulder, Sister Ziyi, your face is very photogenic, when the time comes, I think try to comb your hair back and expose your face as much as possible, after all, the advantages should be magnified as much as possible, and the ends of the hair are best permed with a natural arc, don't go straight, it will look a little dirty." ”
Nie Wei said this, and suddenly found that the hairstylist next to him looked embarrassed, and couldn't help but be happy.
"Well, if there is no pen and paper, I'll draw it to give you a specific reference. "Nie Wei also has a pretty good sketching ability, so he simply decided to draw what he wanted.
When the hairstylist heard this, he quickly nodded and went to find a pen and paper.
"Okay, don't draw badly, when those hairstylists turn around and make small talk to their clients, they will make fun of you. Zhang Ziyi smiled and teased Nie Wei.
But in fact, she is not too worried, she has cooperated with Nie Wei, and she has also seen Nie Wei's sub-shots, although most of the sub-shots are replaced by stick figures, but with a few strokes, she can outline the scene and the characters' expressions, and she knows that Nie Wei's painting level is not bad at all.
In fact, many great directors are relatively talented in painting, and some directors even deliberately studied painting.
"Don't ask me for a while. Nie Wei replied confidently.
After about ten minutes, the hairstylist came back again, but the things he brought made Zhang Ziyi and Nie Wei's eyes widen, this guy didn't just find paper and pencils, but simply moved the drawing board and the drawing board shelf.
"My child happens to be studying art, so I took all her things, as well as these pencils, and this special paper for painting, you can see if it works, if it doesn't work, I'll buy it again." The hairstylist said with a smile.
For big customers like Zhang Ziyi and Nie Wei, she naturally wants to be thorough and make them feel at home.
It's a pity that Nie Wei only feels absurdity at the moment.
This is for me to sketch people, so professional, he even found a large box of German Faber-Castell colored pencils in the hair stylist's daughter's painting bag.
Nie Wei didn't have so much time to waste, so he rummaged through the drawing bag, and sure enough, there was a sketchbook, so Nie Wei took out the sketchbook and took a 6B pencil in his hand.
"Wait five minutes. Nie Wei said a word to Zhang Ziyi, and then took the sketchbook and began to draw.
The hairstylist saw that Nie Wei didn't use the drawing board that he had brought up with great difficulty, so he took a small notebook and drew there, and was still a little worried about whether Nie Wei could draw it well, so he leaned over curiously to take a look.
When she put her eyes on the sketchbook in Nie Wei's hand, a hanging heart was put down.
is different from the character sketches drawn by her daughter in her impression, Nie Wei's paintings are simpler, but everything that should be expressed is very clear, especially watching Nie Wei accurately grasp Zhang Ziyi's appearance and demeanor with just a few strokes, she can't help but applaud in her heart.
There is even a feeling that Nie Wei's painting skills are better than the teacher who taught his daughter to paint.
Zhang Ziyi looked at the hairstylist and looked at the sketchbook in Nie Wei's hand in a daze, she couldn't help but be curious and leaned over, it didn't matter if she looked at it, she immediately liked it.
In order to pursue speed, Nie Wei uses very rough lines, but rough does not mean shoddy, Nie Wei's control of the pen is absolutely top-notch, every line is just right, quite a 'heavy sword without a blade, big ingenuity does not work' feeling.
Five minutes later, Nie Wei put away the pen, and Zhang Ziyi immediately couldn't wait to snatch the sketchbook from Nie Wei's hand.
"Mine!" Facing Nie Wei's smiling eyes, Zhang Ziyi held the sketchbook, rarely showing a playful demeanor like a little girl, and announced the sovereignty of this item to Nie Wei.
The hairstylist on the side opened her mouth, but she still didn't say anything, she also wanted it in her heart, the key was that the sketchbook was still her daughter's.
"No one is robbing you, but now don't you give it to our hairstylist first, otherwise how will you cut your hair?" Nie Wei didn't make fun of Zhang Ziyi, but when the hairstylist on the side heard this, he waved his hand again and again, indicating that he had seen it just now.
At this moment, the hairstylist is indeed full of confidence.
With Nie Wei's specific drawings, she knew it in her heart, and this hairstyle was really not too difficult.
An hour later, Zhang Ziyi looked at the mirror with a satisfied face admiring her new look.
"Nie Wei, if you don't want to be a star in the future, you can be a styling consultant for me. The more Zhang Ziyi looked at her new look in the mirror, the more satisfied she became, simple and fashionable, and the whole person looked a lot fresher than before, as if she was several years younger.
Nie Wei didn't answer, thinking to himself what fashion he knew, and now Zhang Ziyi's style is completely the shoulder-length short hair style that was well received when she was on the roadshow of "No Questions Asked".
Nie Wei had read the news at the time and had an impression of Zhang Ziyi's style, and this time he felt that it was very suitable, so he took it out.
"It's going to be auditioning tomorrow, so come with you then." Nie Wei sent an invitation to Zhang Ziyi.
Zhang Ziyi glanced at Nie Wei with some surprise.
"After all, you're the heroine, and I'd like to hear more from you. Nie Wei met Zhang Ziyi's puzzled gaze and replied.
"Okay, don't blame me for causing you trouble. Zhang Ziyi readily agreed this time.
In fact, she was moved when Nie Wei made the invitation, and once upon a time, she was also able to interview those Hollywood big-name actors, which made Zhang Ziyi feel a little excited in her heart.
Nie Wei asked Zhang Ziyi to participate in the audition together, not casually invited, but really like listening to Zhang Ziyi's thoughts.
There are many artists who come to audition for the actor this time, and there are many excellent people, and it is not as simple as one or two who meet the standards of the actor, this person has a lot of choices, Nie Wei feels that Zhang Ziyi's suggestion is very important, at least among the actors who he thinks meets the standards, pick a heroine who likes and feels, isn't it easier for the hero and heroine to collide with each other when acting.
After finalizing this matter, Zhang Ziyi was ready to go home.
Temporarily received such an important invitation from Nie Wei, Zhang Ziyi was also in a hurry to go home and pick out clothes, and she couldn't dress too casually on that occasion tomorrow.
The audition was at 9 a.m. on March 1, and Nie Wei arrived at the company at 8 a.m., working on documents in his office while waiting for the audition time to arrive.
And there are also a lot of reporters and fans gathered at the gate of Huayi today, Nie Wei looked down from his office and felt that there were at least three or four hundred people.
For this reason, Huayi also deliberately took out the mobile guardrail, and added security guards at the door to maintain order.
At half past eight, almost all the people who were going to audition today had arrived, and because of the large number of people, Huayi specially arranged them to wait in multiple lounges.
After Zhang Ziyi arrived at Huayi Company, she also went straight to Nie Wei's office.
"Ten minutes left, shall we go downstairs. Zhang Ziyi looked at the clock on the wall after drinking a cup of coffee, then got up and asked.
"Let's go. "Nie Wei doesn't have the habit of having to pinch something, it will take two or three minutes to go downstairs from now on, and then he will have to prepare in the room, it is estimated that it will be almost nine o'clock at the beginning, and a minute or two is nothing.
Today's interviewers are only Nie Wei and Zhang Ziyi, originally Nie Wei wanted to call Shu Chang over, after all, she is the producer of the crew, so she should sit here, but Shu Chang refused Nie Wei's invitation, the reason is that she wants to accompany Su Qing to go shopping to buy spring and summer clothes.
This reason is very powerful, and Nie Wei must agree.
In fact, the invitation to Zhang Ziyi yesterday was also the reason why Nie Wei didn't want to be too lonely today.
After the staff checked that the camera and other equipment were in order, Nie Wei signaled that the staff could call the actors in.
Soon, the door to the audition room was pushed open, and Keanu Reeves was seen walking in first, but he was followed by a man in a suit with an oriental face.
"Without further ado, we can communicate in English. Nie Wei said with a smile, embarrassing the translator with one sentence, he felt as if he had just been employed, and he was unemployed.
