The story of "Blood Diamond" really takes place in Sierra Leone, a small country in the east of West Africa that recently experienced eleven years of civil strife, and the origin of all this evil is because of diamonds.

It is a poor country, and even its main export commodity with diamonds has not allowed its people to live a prosperous life, but the original sin evoked by diamonds has brought unhealable scars to the land.

When the site was chosen for the movie, everyone left it behind. Not because of the fear of danger, but because the country is so poor that they can't even find a place with a complete infrastructure for them to shoot. So after some selection, they chose another place that is very close to Sierra Leone - Port Edward in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.

This address was known to Leila in her previous life, so she simply decided on it, and Leonardo did not object at that time. Probably because he himself had already forgotten about that incident, and he didn't expect it to bring hidden dangers to future film shooting.

As a result, Leila was cheated by him, and just before she left, she found out that they had caused such a problem in South Africa.

Fortunately, the Moran family still has a lot of power in the upper class, and directly used the ultimate weapon - the U.S. government to help them negotiate with the South African government and let them take over the responsibility of protecting the crew.

South Africa has no courage to refuse the demands of a hegemon like the United States, otherwise the aircraft carrier will go around twice at home, and the people of the whole country may have to hide at home and tremble.

Leila knew the benefits of using carrots and sticks, and the bad guys let the White House play them, and she was kind enough to offer some money to South Africa. Of course, she is not stupid, the money is not given for free but in the form of investment, looking for someone to help find a few interesting projects to invest a little more, you can make the South African side smile more sincerely.

The difference between being forced to get on with a gun and being lured to a smile with bait is obvious.

This time the heroine is Jennifer Connelly, who won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in 2002 and was recommended by Leonardo. He also said that if she didn't like it, he could always replace it. But Leila is still the same Leila, confident that any actor can bring out the best under her tutelage. Not to mention that he is an acting online in his own right.

Seeing that there was a lot of excitement here, Jennifer also sat down and joined the conversation.

Her joining made Lyra quietly relieved, and with someone who could talk to Elerline, she could retire successfully.

In order to avoid being dragged to talk again, Leila took out the script, read it again, and wrote down her thoughts in some places.

Although she has read it I don't know how many times, she can still understand something new from the script every time.

The words in the script turned into images that flashed in her mind, converging into a continuous plot. How should this scene be filmed, what would be the effect when it was filmed, and would it be better if it were shot in a different way? These are all things she was thinking about. Before filming, she hopes to create more possibilities for the script, rather than being imprisoned by a subjective idea.

Her earnestness was seen by everyone around her, and Jennifer and Elerine didn't want the sound of their side of the conversation to disturb her thoughts, so they got up and ran to the back to chat.

Others lowered their voices in unison, and others took out the script and began to recite their own lines or understand their characters. If even the great directors who stand at the top are so serious, what reason do you have not to let yourself work hard?

"Don't look at it, if you look at it again, you will be in the eye and you won't be able to pull it out. Leonardo waved his right hand in front of Roy's eyes. There is a friend who can't get enough of his girlfriend all day long, and he slaps a bowl of dog food on someone's face at every turn, is anyone more pitiful than him?

Roy slapped his hand away, his eyes still on Layla's body, "She's working on the script again." Sometimes I wish she could have had a good rest. ”

"Don't you think reading scripts is also a way to rest?" Leonardo said disapprovingly, "I like to read scripts when I'm tired." ”

"It's not the same. When you read the script, you see the plot, the characters, but when she reads it, she sees everything. "Roy knows her too well.

Leonardo raised his eyebrows: "Who told her to do this business? Aren't we the same as actors? ”

Roy glanced at him and smiled evilly: "Don't compare me to you, I've already got it." ”

It was a very powerful blow, and Leonardo held his chest and vomited blood: "You can be more vicious!"

"Haha. Roy laughed and patted him on the back vigorously: "Don't worry, with Leila here, you should be able to fulfill your wish this time." ”

"I know. This year's Oscars gave him the biggest surprise, if even she, the director who swept the Oscars and won eleven nominations in one fell swoop, couldn't let herself win that award, he might have to think about whether he was not that material at all.

"By the way, do you think what happened last time will affect this shooting?" was a question that had been bothering him.

Even if layers of protection are made, whether it is official, or the mercenaries and bodyguards hired in private, it still can't make him forget the days when he was hiding. At the time, I thought it was quite exciting, but when I returned to the United States, I began to be afraid. He didn't dare to imagine what kind of "hospitality" they would have received if Xiao Yu and his friends hadn't shown up at that critical moment.

Maybe the diamonds will be robbed, the money will be robbed, and that will be the best outcome. He was worried that when those people looted everything on them, they would just tear up the ticket. Letting two foreigners disappear silently into the shadows could not be a simple matter for those people.

Roy's brow furrowed, "I hope not." We went to a different place than we did this time, and those people can't think of the whole of South Africa as a backyard, right?"

"But the place where our plane landed is still the same airport where we left last time, have you forgotten the last time we met the interrogator there when we left?"

Roy thought about it, and it was indeed the case: "I heard that the military will have some arrangements at that time, I don't think we will be in danger as soon as we get off the plane, right? ”

"That's right. Leonardo nodded: "It's still your fiancée who has the ability to find official help." With the help of these regular officials, our safety should be well guaranteed. ”

"Leila has always been great. The corners of Roy's smug mouth lifted again.

makes Leonardo want to give a slap in the face, how abusive he is, if he has to keep talking about Leila's powerful words, he will always forget how hateful this wife madman is.
