1265. Power on, request
For reporters to ask about this, D'Addario is also ready.
"In fact, the news report was wrong at the beginning, I did fall and injured myself, but it was not as serious as the news report, I just had a slight bone crack, the doctor told me that I only needed to rest for half a month, and I could recover with treatment and a healthy diet, and then Director Nie Wei also came to the hospital to see me, confirmed that my physical condition was competent for the role, and then the two parties happily signed the contract. Daddario replied lightly.
What can a reporter say, even if he doubts it in his heart, he can only write the news according to D'Addario's words now, otherwise what else can he do, can't he go on stage to personally check D'Addario's injury?
Even Nie Wei was on the side to help D'Addario lie.
"We at Max Films never joke about the health of the actors, Miss Daddario is recovering really well, and I have also consulted her attending doctor, and Miss Daddario's injured wrist recovery is fully capable of filming the movie role, so I would like to ask Miss Daddario's fans to rest assured that your idol is healthy. ”
Nie Wei's last sentence is completely to put gold on D'Addario, how can she have any fans, the number of followers on Facebook is less than a fraction of Nie Wei's, and there are many carnal meals, and there is no loyalty at all.
As for the attending doctor of Daddario, the young lady's agent has also been done with money.
With the unified caliber of the three parties and the revised diagnosis certificate, no matter how much the reporter digs, he can't dig anything, and what he gets is always the answer that Nie Wei wants to tell them.
As for D'Addario's wrist recovery, it is indeed good, on the one hand, thanks to D'Addario's treatment regardless of the cost, and secondly, her self-control is also very good.
Nie Wei called a reporter again, but he didn't expect to ask Daddario, but this time it was not her injury, but her acting skills.
"After hearing that you chose Miss D'Addario as the number two, there were a lot of questioning comments, questioning that D'Addario's acting skills in previous movies are not very good, and she has never played an important role in a big production, is she really up to the role?"
The reporter's question made D'Addario's face not very good, because these things were almost pointing at her nose and saying that her acting skills were poor, although her previous acting skills were really poor, but she still felt embarrassed to be slapped in the face like this.
"That's why they're the audience, I'm the director, since I chose D'Addario, it's naturally because he fits the image of the character in my mind, and he has enough strength to play this role, of course, some people may still not believe what I said, so why not wait for the movie to be released and buy a ticket to go into the cinema to see it for yourself, we have an ancient saying in China called 'seeing is believing', I believe that D'Addario's performance will not disappoint you." ”
D'Addario also took the microphone and said sincerely: "I know that my acting skills were really not good before, if it weren't for my fame, maybe I would have won several Golden Sour Plum Awards." ”
"But this time I met a good director who saw the problem with my acting skills and showed me a clear path, and I felt that my acting skills had changed and I was confident that I could play this role well. ”
At this time, Rowling also stood up and spoke for D'Addario.
"I've always been strict in my choice of actors, and I approve of Daddario, and I can assure my book lovers here that she's going to bring you a really great Queenie. ”
With Nie Wei and Rowling endorsing D'Addario, the reporters on the scene no longer questioned it, of course, there are many people who don't think so, and they don't think that D'Addario, who is over thirty years old, will have any chance of being reborn, after all, the acting style of actors at this age is basically stereotyped.
Nie Wei pointed to another reporter, but he didn't expect to ask Daddario.
This time, the reporter questioned Daddario's age again, because Daddario was born in eight or six years, but Nina, who played her sister in the play, was born in eight or nine years, and the difference between the two was three years old, but Daddario, who was three years older, was the role of his sister.
"It's strange that age never limits an actor's ability to portray a role. Nie's only sentence dismissed the boring reporter.
Of course, for the kind of actor who is forty or fifty years old and still plays a twenty-year-old girl, Nie Wei thinks that it is best to stop in moderation, and play the right role at the right age, obviously D'Addario's age and appearance are still very suitable for the role of Queenie.
The next reporter finally didn't ask D'Addario again, but asked Wu Lei, who was sitting next to him, although this young Chinese actor sat in the corner, he had actually attracted the attention of many reporters since he entered the venue.
"May I ask this actor named Wu Lei, as a Chinese actor, do you have any barriers in language communication when you are filming in Hollywood?" The reporter's first question was directed at Wu Lei's language.
The reason why the first one asked this question is that the biggest problem for many Chinese actors who came to Hollywood to develop before was language, the actors of that era did not have the good educational conditions of today's young actors, and they also did not have the advanced consciousness created in today's era.
So often after these actors have the opportunity, language is the biggest problem they face.
"Of course not, in fact I still speak very good English. Wu Lei answered the reporter's question directly in fluent English.
Wu Lei's English did not stumble, and there was no serious accent problem, which made the reporter who asked the question show a surprised expression, and gave Wu Lei a thumbs up after coming back to his senses.
Of course, praise is appreciated, but he was still not ready to let Wu Lei go, and threw out the second problem.
"We all know that there are also Chinese faces in Harry Potter movies, such as Zhang Qiu, but Zhang Qiu is actually an Englishman who grew up in the UK, but you are indeed a Chinese who grew up in China, will you be troubled in character creation because of cultural surprise?"
Wu Lei was a little hesitant, mainly because he was not easy to answer this question, and the answer was yes, then it would be in line with the reporter's wishes, and he might not know how to write about himself when he looked back, but if he denied it, he had no full evidence to prove that he could ignore the influence of the growth environment to be competent for the role.
Wu Lei looked at the audience in embarrassment, and found that his agent was also anxious.
"Wu Lei is fully capable of the role. Nie Wei took over the topic and relieved Wu Lei's embarrassment.
Although Wu Lei is a child who grew up in China, but now is the information age, the Internet has also turned the earth into a global village, and it is actually very simple to understand the culture of various places, not to mention that after Wu Lei got the role, he seriously did the role experience, and even went to the rescue center for this purpose, accompanied and learned a lot of autistic children, please look forward to his performance in the movie. ”
If Wu Lei said these words himself, he would be suspected of selling and boasting, but it was very appropriate for Nie Wei to say it, Wu Lei breathed a sigh of relief, and his agent looked at Nie Wei gratefully and thanked him for his help.
You must know that this kind of reporter asks questions, and the director actually doesn't say that he has to help the actors to block the difficult questions, and some directors even deliberately indulge the reporters to embarrass the actors, because in this way they can create topics and help the film be promoted.
Nie Wei's care and protection of the crew and actors from beginning to end are in everyone's eyes, and based on this alone, Nie Wei can be called a good director.
Then Foy, Rowling and Depp in the final finale were bombarded by reporters in turn, and the press conference lasted for an hour and a half before it ended.
Next is the start-up ceremony, originally Nie Wei wanted to be simpler, he didn't even need a red banner, he directly let the reporter enter the set, and it was okay to take the first shot after the start of filming, but Rowling didn't know where she heard the worship ceremony in Hong Kong, and felt that this mysterious and ancient method was very religious, maybe it would really bring good luck to the movie, so she also asked Nie Wei to get one.
Nie Wei couldn't laugh or cry about this, if it was so useful, the movies in Hong Kong would not have been as they are now, it was originally the well-known Oriental Hollywood, and most of the movies produced now are disliked even by fans in the mainland.
But Rowling has asked for it, and it's not too much trouble anyway, just get it.
Things are very simple, Nie Wei asked the staff to go to the local Chinatown to buy a collection of incense cases and incense burners, and sandalwood is sold in the grocery store in Chinatown, and there are no uniform rules for tribute, the crew who have no money will get some fruit pastries, or simply get some staple foods such as big steamed buns, and those who have money will get a roast suckling pig.
Nie Wei found a local Chinese restaurant to make a roast suckling pig, and then bought some apples and snacks, which was considered to be alive.
According to the calculated auspicious day, after everyone waited on the set for ten minutes, the start-up ceremony officially began.
The next scene is very interesting, a group of blonde and blue-eyed foreigners holding sandalwood, bowing to Guan Erye, the god of martial arts, three times, and a group of blonde and blue-eyed reporters next to them are curious about this magical ceremony, holding cameras and taking pictures.
The worship ceremony lasted for about half an hour, and Depp began to look at his watch impatiently, before it ended in a hurry under Nie Wei's urging.
Then the first scene filmed was the scene where Delindwow revealed his identity and was caught by the American Ministry of Magic.
In addition to the two young actors, almost all the main actors in this scene appeared, and the filming process was also very smooth, although Depp had a little problem with being a person, but he was still a top actor as an actor, and there were powerful actresses like Uma Thurman who played supporting roles, and it only took two times to pass this scene.
This is still Nie Wei's pursuit of better, filming more times, in fact, the first scene has already reached the standard of excellence in Nie Wei's mind, Uma Thurman plays the Minister of Magic from the beginning of the joy to the dignified change when he found out that he was facing Grindelwald, and Depp deduced Grindelwald's pride, and he still held his head high after being arrested, not like a loser at all.
In short, it was a very exciting scene, and the reporters on the scene left the set one after another under the leadership of the staff after taking photos, but everyone was very reluctant to leave, because Nie Weiguan likes closed shooting, and if he wants to interview these actors and creators, it is estimated that it will be a few months later.
Depp also left with his agent after the reporters left, and his task has been completed, and he is the real protagonist in the second part.
With Depp leaving, the atmosphere on the scene is much better, Depp is the kind of veteran superstar, everywhere he goes, it seems to bring the wind and light, there is always a feeling of detachment from everyone, whether it is himself or his team, they all exude a 'I am a big name' temperament, which makes many young actors present feel uncomfortable.
Depp can finish the work, but for other actors to start, the next is the real beginning, the state of several main actors is a little overexcited, after all, they have never made such a powerful blockbuster before, but this gives Nie Wei a headache, it is a good thing for actors to be excited, but it is not good to go too far, and it is easy to lose control of emotions.
After several failures, Nie Wei suspended the filming, called all the actors up and scolded them severely, these uninformed guys were honest, and the subsequent filming went a lot smoother.
On the other side of the ocean, there were two girls who had been distressed by Nie Wei for many days and had not slept well.
Xuanyi and Meiqi have been unable to settle down since they learned from Meisa that Fanxing wanted to poach the two of them, and even their work in the past few days has been absent-minded, during which the two have been taught a lesson by the director and photographer more than once, and even Meisa has talked to the two several times.
There is no way, who made Nie Wei's name too loud in the entertainment industry.
The fame of stars and Huayi is also too shining in the Chinese entertainment circle, which is like Real Madrid and Barcelona in football clubs, they want to take the initiative to recruit players, they only need one intention, 90% will be moved, and some people are even willing to join with their own wallets.
The two girls also called their families for this, and in the end, Xuanyi's parents gave a more feasible plan for now, allowing Xuanyi and Meiqi to try to make further contact with Fanxing, and listen to the detailed treatment before making a decision.
So after another day of magazine shooting, Xuanyi and Maggie invited Meisa to a café next to the magazine.
When Meisa received the invitation, she knew that the two girls might have to make a decision, as for what the decision was, she felt that there should be no suspense, although Y Entertainment was not famous, but it was too far behind the stars.
One is a large company that can promote artists internationally, and the other is only a company in China or just a company with some fame in the idol circle, is it really difficult to make a choice between these two companies?
It's just that what Meisha didn't expect was that although Xuanyi and Meiqi had obvious intentions, they also made a request that made her very embarrassed.
