"They told me that an officer's job is to drive others to take risks so that the officer can survive and take responsibility for all the fiascos. ”

In the living room of Horner Manor, Matthew was as serious as a soldier, practicing the duke's line, "I don't want to offend your sir, but if that's what an officer does, I'd rather not have it." ”

Due to the car painting incident a few days ago, he stayed in the manor for the past two days, the script of the project has been finalized, and many scenes can be rehearsed at home alone.

In terms of dedication, Matthew definitely belongs to the top group in the circle.

Matthew finished reading a monologue, picked up the script and read it for a while, and continued to practice the next scene.

Even today, his literary drama is still a little worse than action drama.

Because he had worked with Stephen Sommers before, Matthew knew that Stephen Sommers' requirements for acting were not too high, and rehearsing the drama in advance was actually familiarizing himself with the script and the whole story.

From signing with the crew to the present, he has read a lot of materials related to special forces, but it is necessary for a film to be adapted to a certain extent on the basis of the original, after all, there are too many differences between animation and movies.

To a certain extent, this is also one of the reasons for ruining childhood.

For example, in the script of "Special Forces: The Rise of Cobra", in the hearts of many anime and toy fans, the Duke is a sergeant who is good at airborne, gunnery and small arms, but in the script, the Duke's military rank has become Major, in addition to continuing to maintain the original characteristics, he also adds the item of being good at hand-to-hand combat.

Flint will also change from a character alongside the Duke to a subordinate of the Duke.

This is also to cater to the characteristics of him as a male protagonist himself.

As for the rest, that's more.

As the heroine, there is an obvious ambiguous relationship between the baroness and the duke, and there is also a certain emotional drama and so on.

This film was made, just like Michael Bay's "Transformers", and it was strange that no one shouted about ruining childhood at that time.

Also, in order to ensure Duke's role, there are not many special forces characters designed in the script, and a lot of suspense is left for future sequels.

Hasbro and Paramount Pictures had big ambitions and wanted to make it a series.

According to what Matthew learned, they had a plan that stayed on paper - in the future special forces would interact with the Transformers.

Whether it can be realized depends on the future market response of these two films.

While rehearsing, Matthew also maintained communication and exchange with director Stephen Sommers, and he knew Stephen Sommers' concept of wanting to shoot and produce films.

This is actually reflected in the script led by Stephen Sommers.

The script is a typical Hollywood commercial masterpiece routine model where good triumphs over evil and heroes save the world.

According to Stephen Sommers's vision, "Special Forces" will be full of novel technology and hot action scenes of a dozen in five minutes and a dozen in ten minutes, but the set design of this film is far more than that of its sibling "Transformers".

In fact, whether it is Stephen Sommers or Matthew, they all know very well in their heads that popcorn films like "Special Forces" must first ensure that the audience can watch it well.

Of course, different directors and actors have different pursuits.

Some small production films of two or three million dollars can make people sleepy, but they can get high scores, they will tell you to see what they embody the humanistic care for something, what problems have been excavated, the director shoots empty shots in order to save costs, they say that they want to experience this artistic conception, and after more than ten minutes have passed, the plot has not advanced a little, they say to pay attention to the facial expressions of the actors, see how thick the characters are portrayed, and so on.

Maybe many people like this tone, but Matthew knows that when encountering this kind of project and director, you must go as far as you can.

For commercial star actors, they are terrible.

Matthew also learned another news from Paramount Pictures, "Transformers 2" will also be released in the summer next year, and Hasbro's two ace series are squeezed into the same year.

However, Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg did not ask him to voice Megatron again, after all, his salary was too high, and the "Transformers" live-action movie made a name for itself.

Maybe when these two films are big hits, he can take the lead in getting Stephen Sommers and Michael Bay to sit together and discuss the filming of "Special Forces VS Transformers"?

Having said that, Michael Bay is the director, forget it, in the past two years, Exploding Bay seems to have a tendency to put the bar, since breaking up with Jerry Bruckheimer, he has begun to frantically stuff explosions and action scenes into a film, and it seems that the right amount has never been considered.

Michael Bay really wants to regain his reputation, after the release of "Transformers 2", don't worry about "Transformers 3", and hurry up to toss "Death Island 2" is the right way.

Five days after the car paint incident, the Beverly City Police Department reported that the man who was painting the Mercedes SUV had been arrested.

But the matter is far from over.

After police interrogation, the Latino man was Mexican, and he was a black man, that is, a person who was smuggled from Mexico to California, and had been in Los Angeles for nearly a year and a half, and usually lived by carrying drugs.

Ten days earlier, the man had been offered a high-paying job in Tijuana, Mexico, and was caught by the police on his way back to the Mexican border.

The first thing that can be made clear is that this Mexican ethnic has no connection to the previous panty theft.

Secondly, he is just an executor, and someone behind him directs him.

"Probably a drug trafficking organization in Mexico. ”

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Helen Herman looked calm, "The hired person is from Tijuana, and it's a drug dealer's paradise over there. ”

Matthew sat across from Helen Herman, pinching his chin and frowning and thinking, Hollywood has never been short of drugs, but in the past few years, he has not had any involvement with drugs, except for the first half of this year.

"Could it have something to do with the drug dealer caught while filming Fast & Furious 4?" asked Matthew.

Helen Herman nodded, "The police have that in mind, too. She paused for a moment, and then said, "It was the crew that caught those drug dealers in the first place, and the FBI and the California police were able to work with the Mexican side to destroy the drug trafficking organization and destroy the tunnels they spent a lot of money to build. ”

Matthew clasped his hands to his chest, "And then those fish that slipped through the net, ready to take revenge on me?"

"It's a big possibility. Helen Herman continued, "There were so many people present when the crew caught the drug dealer, it was impossible to keep it secret, and the news must have leaked. ”

"Don't you know that these guys have found the wrong person?" Matthew said helplessly, spreading his hands, "It was Gal Gadot who found them, not me." ”

Helen Herman recounted the fact that "Gal Gadot is unknown, and she returned to Israel after filming, and the drug dealers can't do anything to find her." ”

Matthew deliberately sighed, "Gal Gadot is very smart." ”

In fact, he still wanted to ask Gal Gadot to come, but after the other party finished filming "Fast and Furious 4", he didn't stay in Los Angeles at all, and flew back to Tel Aviv directly.

"Is it possible that the drug dealers didn't do it?" asked Matthew.

"It's possible. Helen Herman sighed lightly, "It's just that they're more likely." ”

She reminded, "From now on, you need to strengthen the security level around you, and have professional bodyguards to provide 24-hour uninterrupted protection." ”

Matthew made sure he didn't object, just shook his head and said, "What a hassle." ”

Helen Herman's tone was as flat as ever, "You don't need to worry too much, drug traffickers are rampant in Mexico, but this is America, it's Los Angeles, not Tijuana!"

A sneer flashed on her face, "Underground rats will always be mice, they can only survive in the dark, and once they see the light, it will mean the end." Matthew, don't take it lightly, and there's no need to worry too much. ”

Matthew nodded, "I know." ”

In this era, compared to the huge state apparatus, the gangsters are not even mosquitoes.

Helen Herman added, "The police and the FBI have conducted a professional analysis based on the content of the interrogation, and if this is really revenge, it is more to deliberately disgust people and cause us trouble." ”

This kind of thing is really disgusting, not to mention anything else, the Mercedes-Benz big G can only be returned to Mercedes-Benz to rebuild.

But Matthew still maintained enough vigilance and attention, after all, it was his bodyguard who caught the drug dealer on the set of "Fast and Furious 4" at that time, and destroyed an entire drug trafficking organization.

The tunnel from Tijuana to the U.S.-Mexico border, in particular, is definitely expensive.

With the Mexican-American captured, Matthew is back to his normal working life, and he has specifically told lawyer Helen Herman and Wilson that he will definitely get the spray-painted guy punished severely.

In the time that followed, he did not encounter similar incidents, and it seemed that everything was calm again.

On the cast of "Special Forces: The Rise of the Cobra", after Matthew communicated with Stephen Sommers, Carolina Kokuva's name successfully appeared on the redhead's audition list.

Carolina Kokuva, for her part, also hired a senior military trainer from Hollywood to conduct assault training in basic military skills.

Of course, Matthew will get back from her several times the amount he paid.

Thanks to Stephen Sommers' efforts, the project is progressing very well, and the preliminary preparations are already in the advanced stage.

Matthew briefly left the crew and moved to Disney headquarters to participate in a joint meeting between Disney and Skydance Pictures and Studio 13 to finalize the next phase of "Twilight."
