The emotions when you are about to meet your favorite star are a little difficult for ordinary people to understand.

It's like you could only watch them act in a TV series through the screen, but one day several leading actors crawled out of it and greeted you, of course, you will be pleasantly surprised.

For Han Xuan, "Friends" (Friends) has an extraordinary significance, if he had to choose his favorite TV, Han Xuan would definitely blurt out: "Friends".

Compared to the luxury nanny cars and sports cars in "Beverly Leap", it is not very conspicuous, and there is a faint laughter and applause in the house.

Han Xuan was very excited, it's good that there are people inside, it seems that what I saw just now is indeed Jennifer Aniston.

It stands to reason that the first season ready for the pilot should have been filmed long ago, and although he doesn't know why there are still people, it doesn't matter.

Usually the people who can enter Time Warner Studios are staff, and just a few shots can be made up in half a day, so no security guards are arranged, Han Xuan gently pushed open the door and was lucky to enter the set.

In the wood-paneled set, Season 1 Episode 13 is playing Chandler bumps into Rachel out of the shower and sees her breasts, triggering a series of retaliatory actions.

After listening to the director's introduction, Han Xuan didn't blink his eyes, and later found out that it was a misplaced shooting, and the boy didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed.

The production cycle of American sitcoms is from Monday to Friday, with four days of rehearsals, memorization of lines, lighting adjustment, etc., and the last day is performed for a live audience.

Although "Friends" has a main plot line, each episode can be self-contained, and viewers will be invited to watch it live for free a month before each episode airs.

In the past, when watching this TV series, Han Xuan could always hear the audience's laughter, and originally thought it was "canned laughter" recorded with a tape recorder, because old-fashioned sitcoms will record the audience's laughter, and later match it when the laughter occurs, just like opening a can to release laughter.

However, on the set of "Friends", all the laughter is real, there is a microphone in front of each seat in the audience, and the audience's laughter is recorded in time.

Each episode of "Friends" is about half an hour, but during the performance, the audience may have to sit for three hours, and there is a laugh that happens, the audience does not laugh, and the director is about to modify the joke on the spot, but Han Xuan laughs as if he is unresponsive, and he doesn't know what he is having fun.

On stage, Rachel played by Jennifer and Chandler played by Matthew Perry looked at the same time, "Chandler" showed his signature smile and waved his hand, and "Rachel" did the same, smiling and squinting his eyes and waving his fingers, greeting the Chinese couple.

Han Xuan stood in place for a long time, and finally remembered that he had something to do, raised the notebook in his hand, and silently asked for an autograph.

Jennifer and Matthew are not famous at the moment, and there are quite a few people who come to watch them for free, but most people don't ask them for autographs.

The boy is so cute, and it is rest time, they naturally will not refuse, beckoning Han Xuan to come over.

Thanks to Jennifer's help, Han Xuan got all the leading actors' autographs and blessings except for "Phoebe", "Phoebe" didn't come over today, and even the director signed a name at the boy's request.

There is no external light source in the studio, that is to say, there is not even a window, the performance on stage is very interesting, when they finished filming the last scene, Guo Muzhou raised his arm to look at his watch, it was almost half past six o'clock.

"Friends" is one of the most important projects of NBC TV at present, and no one else can interfere, Han Xuan didn't think about getting involved, so he left contentedly at the moment and drove to Los Angeles with his grandfather.

……

Midsummer evening.

The wind blows from the Pacific Ocean, and the air smells of sea.

Before the afterglow dissipated, the whole city couldn't wait to be lit up, crisscrossing the golden lines, and the edge could not be seen at a glance.

The traffic on the street was endless, and it was the rush hour after work, and the traffic jam was more than 20 minutes, and only more than 30 meters were advanced.

BACK TO BEVERLY HILLS IS VIA HOLLYWOOD, AND IN THE DISTANCE, A LARGE WHITE "HOLLYWOOD" SIGN GLOWS FAINTLY ON THE HILLSIDE, ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS LARGE-PRINT SIGNS IN THE WORLD.

Han Xuan heard from his grandfather that last year, people could climb to the mountainside along the sheep intestine trail and experience the feeling of touching the signboard with their own hands.

But since an actress committed suicide by jumping from the "D" of the sign at the beginning of the year, people have been forbidden to approach the sign and can only look at it from a telescope on the observatory.

Hollywood was first discovered by photographers looking for locations, and around the beginning of the 20th century, it attracted many photographers.

Then came a number of small companies and independent producers who escaped the control of the patent company, and gradually formed a film center.

Now that Wall Street's big conglomerates are involved in the film industry, Hollywood movie theaters are rapidly emerging, and movies are part of their profits.

The abundant capital has led to an increase in film production, which has ensured the dumping of the American film market in the world in recent years, and Hollywood, just outside Los Angeles, has also become synonymous with American films.

Han Xuan always felt that his involvement in the film industry could be regarded as a contribution to this process, but more than making money, most of it came from personal interest, and imagining superheroes from Dimen Pictures to the big screen, the sense of accomplishment was incomparable.

The Rolls-Royce has not moved, and the three Mercedes-Benzes in which the bodyguard rode have long been out of sight, and no matter how good the driving skills are, they can't compete with such a crazy traffic jam.

Guo Muzhou remembered that his grandson had never played in Hollywood, so he simply proposed to go shopping, told Little John to wait for them in the parking lot on the corner, took the boy's little hand, stretched out his head to look, and raised his leg forward after identifying the direction.

The whole street is brightly lit and passers-by pass by, this night scene is relatively rare in the city that Han Xuan has experienced so far, and it can be compared to Times Square in New York and Champélysées Avenue in France.

The boy's grandfather didn't seem to know much about the road, only knew that the east-west street in front of him was called Hollywood Boulevard, and there were many blocks in the north-south direction.

"This is supposed to be the theater home of the Academy Awards, Hollywood Heights Entertainment Plaza. Turning a corner and walking out, there was a circular square around the surroundings in front of him, Guo Muzhou half-guessed and half-understood, he was persuaded by himself, and nodded seriously to express his affirmation.

When Han Xuan saw this featureless small square, he couldn't imagine that the Oscars were held on it.

Turning the corner, the road in front of me is not like other gray and white roads in Los Angeles, its black ground is shiny, and a pink pentagonal shape appears at the foot, thinking that this is the Avenue of Fame.

FAMILIAR NAMES POPPED UP ONE AFTER ANOTHER, AND HAN XUAN MUTTERED: "MIKE JACKSON, MARTIN SCORSEIS, BRUCE-LEE (BRUCE LEE)." ”

These stars will lead the grandparents to the famous Chinese Theatre, where handprints and footprints are printed on a concrete floor in the open space in front of the gate.

The Chinese Theatre is unlike any of the houses on this street, with strange shapes, sharp corners and flame-shaped decorations, and "Chinese dragons" carved on the walls more like snake demons.

Han Xuan took out the spirit of archaeology, searched and compared on the ground, and once he found the remains of his idol, he immediately pounced on it and put his hands into the idol's handprint to satisfy himself.

“SuperMan！”

One of the children screamed, and soon, there was a traffic jam on the sidewalk, and children from all sides surrounded Superman and his partner today: Spider-Man.

After the children signed and took a group photo, the adults came to pay, while Han Xuan touched his chin beside him: "I don't know if I paid the license fee, this is an infringement of Marvel's rights and interests."

The boy's grandfather nodded earnestly.
