Chapter 103: Advice to McKay

McKay saw Xu Qing's eyes and whispered, "Do you like this actress?"

"Pretty good actress. Xu Qing said.

McKay turned his head to look at Liv Taylor carefully: "You have a good eye, this actress's appearance and figure are rare among Hollywood actresses." ”

"Talk to the director, if Taylor's acting skills are passable, give her the role of the heroine of "Dumb and Dumb". ”

Taylor belongs to the category where his acting skills are okay and he can play the lead role in some medium-budget movies, but he can't play the lead role in big-budget movies.

can see the female star she liked in her previous life in this era, Xu Qing is willing to give Taylor a heroine, anyway, the heroine of "Dumb and Dumb" belongs to the role of a vase, and it basically doesn't matter who it is.

This can be regarded as an appreciation that Xu Qing liked Taylor in his previous life, and Xu Qing will not care about Taylor's development in the future.

"It should be fine on the director's side. ”

McKay and Xu Qing spoke, turned their heads and asked the director sitting next to him, the two talked a few words, and McKay said to Xu Qing again:

The director was quite satisfied with Taylor's acting skills and agreed to let Taylor play the heroine of "Dumb and Agua". ”

Taylor's audition ended, and the director didn't say that he would go back and wait for the notice this time, but directly told Taylor that you passed the audition and welcome you to "Dumb and Agua".

Taylor immediately covered his mouth to prevent himself from crying, his eyes were red, and he hurriedly bowed to Xu Qing and the others in thanks.

For Taylor, who has always wanted to act in movies, but has never gotten any movie roles, the heroine of "Dumb and Agua" is undoubtedly a huge surprise.

Taylor was covering his mouth and leaving the room, and McKay asked Xu Qing a little confused, "Won't you say a few words to her?"

"I just look at her better, and I don't want to do those things. Xu Qing knew that McKay had misunderstood, so he explained.

"Oh, okay. McKay shrugged, not quite believing Xu Qing's words.

Xu Qing didn't care, and a group of people left the room and went to the restaurant of the shooting base for lunch.

The restaurant at MGM's filming base is not large, but the decoration is very high-end, because this restaurant is mainly for the big stars and directors who come here to film, while the little actors and actors eat boxed lunches.

There are not many people in the restaurant, and it is not every day that there are big stars and directors who come to MGM to film, and it is normal for there to be fewer people.

The person who was eating in the restaurant saw McKay, put down the knife and fork in his hand, and raised his hand to greet McKay.

McKay walked over to respond to the men, and after a lap, McKay returned.

"How many big stars, big directors, don't you want to get to know them?" McKay asked Xu Qing.

"Forget about this kind of occasion, and have the opportunity to meet again in the future. Xu Qing shook his head.

After lunch, Xu Qing and McKay came to the recreation room of the base to relax.

This recreation room is large, with a few pool tables and a few arcade machines...... There are even a couple of mahjong tables.

"It's easy to be nervous when filming, and those actors and directors can relax when they come to entertainment. McKay explained.

Xu Qing walked to an arcade machine, this arcade machine was not turned off, and the picture displayed on the screen was "Street Fighter 2", which Xu Qing was very familiar with in his previous life.

Xu Qing remembered that when he was a child, he ran to the arcade hall with a group of classmates after school, handed over the lunch fee to the boss, and exchanged a few game coins to stuff into the arcade.

Then there were shouts, shouts, killed, hits, and punches that resounded in the arcade.

Xu Qing has played a lot of arcade games, and Street Fighter 2 is one of Xu Qing's favorite arcade games.

For it, Xu Qing gave almost all of the year's lunch money to the owner of the arcade hall.

McKay walked to the arcade next to Xu Qing and said, "Do we want to play a game?"

"Come on. Xu Qing prepared.

The two began to fight.

There is no doubt that Xu Qing defeated McKay with rich experience in his previous life, and in several consecutive rounds, McKay had no power to fight back, and finally McKay stopped playing.

"Why are you so good? I'm also a master of Street Fighter 2, and I can't fight back against you. ”

Xu Qing smiled indifferently: "It's nothing, you are a middle-aged uncle, I am a young man, my hand speed and eyesight are not as normal as me." ”

Mackay was choked with nothing to say and trembled with rage.

"How can there be an arcade machine in this entertainment room? Most of the people who come to the MGM shooting base to film are adults, right?

Xu Qing was a little puzzled, arcade can be said to be an exclusive game for teenagers, although there are also adults who play it, but those people are also in their early 20s.

"Actors are under a lot of pressure, and playing arcade is a great way to vent stress. McKay said.

Xu Qing nodded, arcade games are still very popular in this era, not much worse than handheld games.

These two game genres are very profitable, and Nintendo derives most of its revenue from these two game genres.

Xu Qing also wants to involve these two game types, but now is not the time, at least after the release of the electronic pet.

Retracting his thoughts, Xu Qing saw McKay walk to the billiard table, picked up two billiard cues, handed one of them to him, and said, "I can't compare to you in the arcade, but you can't be my opponent in billiards." ”

Xu Qing smiled and took the billiard cue.

Ten minutes later, McKay threw a pool cue on the table and shouted, "Don't play, you can't beat you in arcade, not even billiards." ”

Xu Qing smiled indifferently again: "It's nothing, you are a middle-aged uncle, I am a young man, my strength and eyesight are not as normal as me." ”

The arcade machine is Xu Qing who defeated McKay by relying on the experience of his previous life, and billiards is Xu Qing who defeated McKay by relying on the experience of the original guy.

It turned out that in order to pretend to be forced, the guy practiced good billiards skills, and often played on the billiard table in the bar to attract girls.

Xu Qing and McKay took a spin in the entertainment room, and then went to see a shooting scene.

Compared with the picture presented on the screen, the shooting scene was extremely boring, the director kept shouting NG, and the actors repeated the action again and again.

It's very boring, and Xu Qing admires those actors for persevere.

When leaving, McKay sent Xu Qing, Xu Qing saw the enthusiastic smile on McKay's face, and asked:

"I don't think MGM has ever released a movie with a lot of special effects, isn't MGM going to make this kind of movie?"

"MGM has no plans to do that. McKay shook his head.

"The use of new special effects in movies will be the mainstream of future films, and if they don't keep up, they may be eliminated. Xu Qing said.

"I can't speak. McKay smiled wryly.

"Then MGM may be acquired by me in the future, and I hope you will be at MGM by then. Xu Qing smiled.

After MGM entered the 90s, it remained the same, and most of the films produced used the old school methods, and did not use new film technologies such as special effects.

Xu Qing felt that McKay was very good, and he was a friend, so remind him, but McKay couldn't speak at MGM, and it seemed that MGM's fate could not be changed in this era.

Fortunately, after a few years, he waited for MGM to decline further, and then bought MGM.

"Perhaps. Mackay's tone was ethereal.

Xu Qing left the MGM shooting base and returned to the villa.

The next morning, Dan Ning, the general manager of Honor Games, called Xu Qing and asked him to come to the company to report on something important.
