Chapter 686: Xi Shi in the eyes of the lover

"Dude, trust me! Leila is yours, I haven't even thought about it, you can trust that!"

Saying such things in such a firm tone, Roy was upset: "Leila is so good, how can you not feel anything for her!"

The corners of Donnie's mouth twitched. He wanted to ask, man, what the hell do you want me to say? He wasn't happy that he wouldn't fall in love with her. Does he have to admit that he likes her? If he really says it, someone will go crazy, okay?

He'd just been back to the police station because of the fight, and if he was beaten up by Roy and thrown in again, he might as well get himself drunk here.

"As soon as you hear this, you know that you haven't been in love a few times before, right?" He patted him on the shoulder in a senior gesture: "Listen, everyone is an angel with one wing, and only by finding the right other half, can the two hug each other and fly together and return to heaven." Lyra's wings are the one you're missing, and the two of you are the perfect pair, you know?"

"Have you talked a lot?" Roy squinted at him.

"Of course, don't look at me as decadent as I later on, I used to be quite popular with women. And I've had a wife. Donnie patted his chest proudly. "Women have to coax, you know? You can say any sweet words to her, they love this the most!"

Roy took a sip of beer and glanced at him lightly: "Your wife is already someone else's." ”

Donnie froze for a moment and scratched his head in embarrassment: "Isn't that why I didn't coax during that time, so women still have to coax." He sat down next to Roy and stretched out his hand to stop his shoulder: "Come on, let my brother teach you a few tricks to coax girls, and it will work!"

"Really?" Roy was moved.

He really hadn't been in a relationship much before, and he had to struggle to even eat, how could he have that time to get along with women. And with his looks, all the women who will appear around him are attracted to his face. There is such a woman who abandoned him and his younger brother, he has never had much affection for women, how can he put any energy into coaxing?

Here, after clearing up the misunderstanding, Donnie enthusiastically teaches Roy his tricks to the "innocent guy", while Layla has already started preparations for a new job after returning home.

At this time, there are a series of landscape photos in front of her, and it can be judged from the shooting technique that these were not taken by one person, but each one is very beautiful without exception. These are the framing references that Yao Yingxia asked her to prepare.

She spent a month in the Orient and traveled many places and saw many dreamlike landscapes. But it is undoubtedly not enough to have an in-depth understanding of the huge oriental land in such a short time, and in order to make up for this shortcoming, Yao Yingxia very enthusiastically invited many people to take these photos by her, and wanted the scenery of her country to appear in Hollywood movies as much as possible.

In 2003, the impression of the East on the West was still that of poverty and ignorance in "Red Sorghum".

I have to say that Oriental directors are also very uncompetitive, always in order to cater to the appetite of the West, make some films that scandalize the East and participate in the competition for some film awards, such as "The Red Lantern Hangs High", "Alive" and so on.

Leila had disliked these people since her previous life, so what if she got some awards abroad? The East is an old country, but at the same time she is a new country. Why can't you give her a little more time to change?

It was much easier to build on a blank slate than to rebuild on a ruin, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with the country now. There may be difficulties and gloom on the road to change, but growth always comes at a cost, and even the United States has had a Civil War.

If she had to take some ugly things that had been abolished for a long time and put them on the international stage, in addition to making more people have a wrong impression of the East, Leila really didn't know what else to do.

So she felt that Yao Yingxia had created a good opportunity not to scandalize herself to cater to others, but to find a way to show the best side through movies.

If Leila was not such a director with a high reputation in Hollywood, if her movies would not have caused good results, if she was not such a person who is very kind to the East, Yao Yingxia might not be so attentive. But it is precisely because she has the above qualities that the movie she is about to shoot has become the best way for her to promote it.

Maybe there are factors related to her own future that she will be so enthusiastic, but what does it matter?

Leila has never hated ambitious people, as long as what she does is good and she doesn't sell anything for what she gets, then she is very respectable.

After comparing a lot of photos with the original "Lord of the Rings" in her mind, she became more and more inclined to shoot the film in the East.

The only thing that made her hesitate was not that the right place could not be found, but that the actors.

I have said before that there are more than 100 characters with lines in "The Lord of the Rings", not counting some of the dragon sets and extras that serve as backgrounds. In some large scenarios, thousands of people may be required. It's not impossible to do it with special effects, but one involves time and money, and the other is that the current special effects technology is far from being as developed as in the future, and the effect is definitely not as shocking as real people to shoot.

Don't forget that this is a Western fantasy story, and the characters in it are almost all Western actors. Many of the characters in the original version were added by New Zealand actors, and the extras were brought in from New Zealand. If Leila really wants to move the movie to the East, I'm afraid the problem of actors will not be so simple to solve. Because it is impossible to invite extras from the East to star in such a film that tells the story of the West.

So Leila has been trying to find a solution.

In fact, even Zhang Guorong should not be included in the movie, but at that time, Leila was worried that if he didn't help him find something to do, he might cut off his life according to the original trajectory of history. And with a job, it's different, with his seriousness about work, he will never think about ending his life in the middle of work.

And her new film plan has been released, and many preparations have been made in all aspects, and it is impossible to terminate the plan of "The Lord of the Rings" and then open other movies that are more suitable for her brother. That's why she gritted her teeth and stuffed her "brother" into a magical movie like "The Lord of the Rings".

Looking at the landscape photo in her hand, Leila sighed softly.

That's a troublesome question!

As long as this problem is solved, she can move the crew over. However, is there a real chance that she will be able to move over?
