Chapter 1144: How Excellent
Hung Jinbao has read the script, knows the role he plays, and knows that there are many things worth thinking about in the movie. Although he did not get the final ending due to the principle of secrecy, he believed that Director Moran, who had a good impression of the East, would not do anything to trap the Easterners. And he also believes that Zhang Guorong is not a person who will give up his oriental self-esteem for the protagonist of a Hollywood blockbuster!
That is to say, with the film directed by Moran, Zhang Guorong will definitely be able to climb to an unprecedented level in movies. Count how many actresses she has won, and then count how many people who have followed her and how many awards have won, and you will know how good the future of those who have worked with her will be.
Maybe he can look forward to the first time when an Oriental actor will appear on the biggest stage in the world?
Thinking of this, he laughed to himself.
Because he knew that it might be too small, that is, Leila's relationship gave him such a luxury for a moment, and he would not have similar thoughts if he was another director, even if it was the same Hollywood super director.
In the eyes of Westerners, especially Hollywood people, the East is a desert of movies, and they don't think that the East can cultivate any actors with great acting skills. Although the gradually rising box office in the East over the years has allowed them to see a new way to make a fortune, it has also made them think of using Oriental actors to increase the box office. But they won't give important roles to Orientals, at most, some don't care if they have a trick or not.
The reason is very simple, the Hollywood blockbusters they shot entirely with Westerners have already made Oriental people like them, so why give up important roles to Oriental actors they don't recognize? And their goal is not only to use the East, there are still many fans who like Western faces all over the world, but there are far fewer people who like Asian actors.
At the beginning, Zhang Guorong's role in Leila's "The Lord of the Rings" was beyond the expectations of the Orientals, and no one expected that Laila would hand over a new and so important role to the Orientals. And now it is not only an important supporting role, but also one of the two male leads, so heavy that without him, there would be no excellent role in the movie!
After the initial excitement, Hong Jinbao began to admire Zhang Guorong again. If you change to any actor or star, it is estimated that after getting such a role, it will have already spread to the outside world. But not only did he not say that he had won the opportunity to be one of the leading actors, but he didn't even let people know about the movies he had already participated in!
If you don't come to the island to meet people, I'm afraid you won't be known to the outside world until the time of publicity, right?
Is this the director's intention, or is Zhang Guorong himself low-key? Hung Jinbao doesn't want to delve too deep, now he just wants to use the greatest enthusiasm and strength to help his fellow villagers, making this film one of the most classic films in film history. Then use the facts to tell those Westerners who think they are high above and look down on Eastern actors to see that there are not no good actors in the East!
Hong Jinbao's excitement was seen by Leila, and the people in the team who came with him also had an expression of disbelief and incredulity.
Is it really that surprising?
Lyra laughed to herself as she asked the question in her mind. Of course, she will be surprised, isn't that one of the reasons why she has always maintained a sense of mystery? When the movie is promoted, she will make the whole world lively because of the question of who chooses the main character!
Of course, choosing Orientals and choosing Zhang Guorong is not only for the sake of publicity strategy, but also for Leila's own feelings for her "brother" that spread from her previous life. She wanted to use her hand to give him a proof that was more in line with his accomplishments, and let the world know how good he really was!
After some of the more relaxed shots are completed, the rest of the time is all about fights, and the more thrilling parts. Don't think that hanging on a cliff is dangerous, that situation is simply the difference between kindergarten and high school for what the two leading actors need to do next.
Don't look at the cliff as dangerous, in fact, the safety is quite guaranteed, and all kinds of protection measures are also very complete. The reason why the two leading actors were unlucky to be injured was the weather. If it hadn't been for the strong wind blowing that day because of the rain, I shouldn't have been hurt at all.
When you set foot on an isolated island, you need to face not only the ferocious beasts of the island, but also some poisonous snakes, insects, rats, ants or plants.
How two people on opposite sides can turn enemies into friends, it is obviously unlikely that they will not encounter some real trouble. When Leila revised the script, she designed some more dangerous sequences for the two to save each other's lives and then work together.
But that's certainly not enough. Both sides want each other's lives, and if the other party really falls into a certain death situation, the greatest possibility is that they will help the other party "to die", right?
So on this issue, Leila set them to look for something. That thing is important, more important to the two of them than life. And they both assume that the other knows where the thing is hidden, so not only can they not watch each other die, but they also have to cooperate with each other to get the location of the thing.
And in this kind of intrigue, as the two sides gradually get to know each other, they begin to find that the other party is not as they imagined, or stupid lackeys, or criminals full of crimes.
If you want to make two people who don't like each other become friends of life and death in the shortest possible time, you must let them experience life and death a few more times.
So in the following filming, Leila let her crew and the two leading actors taste the dangers of what it means to be "between life and death".
The safety measures are certainly very comprehensive, but no matter how comprehensive, it is not comfortable to swim against the current in turbulence.
Leila is now filming the scene where they encountered a flash flood. She first had the flow of water blocked at the top of the river, so that if the obstruction was removed, the current would rush downstream with great speed and great force.
But after all, the river is smaller, and for the safety of the actors, they don't dare to let the water flow become too fast. In Layla's eyes, this level is definitely not enough, so she will do some special effects in the later stage.
But even so, the two actors in the river are definitely uncomfortable. They don't dare to open their mouths, and even their eyes are hard to open. There is the sound of water flowing in my ears, and the smell of drinking water in my nose and mouth seems to be all in my mouth.
Other than that, it's hard to stand in the river. Because there were some slippery boulders under their feet, the two of them were washed into the river several times before they finally finished the shots they needed. And when Leila shouted "cut", the two of them didn't even have the strength to move their fingers.
