Chen Jian arrived in Beijing by plane the next morning, and also lived in the East Second Mansion of Ruilin Mansion, where he lived with Song Yuanyuan and Meng Xiaomeng.

Lu Fangfang didn't know that Xu Teng had already made adjustments, so she came over to discuss things with He Jiali in the afternoon, and entered Xu Teng's room and found a group of young men and women playing guitars and singing.

Xu Teng's calculations were very accurate.

When Lu Fangfang saw Chen Nanshen for the first time, she was obviously shocked for a moment, but she didn't expect that in addition to Xu Teng living a fairy-like life, there was actually another more handsome demon hidden in this circle of friends, and it was exactly the same day.

What kind of circle of friends is this?

Lu Fangfang felt a kind of horror in her heart, she finally found that Xu Teng's circle of friends was a little weird, and the business could not be negotiated, so she smiled and watched this group of young people entertain themselves, and inadvertently looked at Jiang Yingyu in the band, and finally knew why this girl was trapped so miserably.

Everyone else is three nights and three flights, but she is the only one who misses her.

Xu Teng didn't care about the rest, and two days later, he took a flight to Los Angeles to audition, he was quite worried that he would not pass the audition, but the result was very smooth.

Lee and Warner's producer were satisfied.

Because he is playing a villain, not a male lead, not a female lead, he is also in very good condition, he is naturally suitable for acting, and the speed of entering the play can be calculated in seconds.

Professor Zheng Tongtian, head of the Department of Film and Television of Cheung Kong University, explained to Xu Teng that there are three realms of performance, the first is imitation, the second is the ego, and the third is the superego.

Xu Teng is the second type, it doesn't matter about acting, it is a very pure performance, let yourself change your personality, self-deception, and believe that you are a TX machine qì person.

Of course, he pondered the role of this TX machine for half a year, carefully analyzed and pondered, and on the basis of the original creation, he had a new understanding and design.

The TX machine qì person he wants to play is not a killing machine qì without personality, but very crazy, and he claims to be an artist among the machine qì people, in short, a little neurotic.

After the audition, he took Xu Teng around the studio and introduced the main personnel of the entire crew to Xu Teng, so that he could familiarize himself with the environment and not be too nervous.

The main creators and main actors of the entire crew are currently staying at the Sheraton Hotel in Hollywood, Xu Teng arrived at 4 pm US time, the audition ended at 7 pm, and at 10 pm, he also met with other main actors in the hotel.

Li An summoned several leading actors to his room, talked about the drama with everyone, and forcibly adjusted the style of the film.

This movie is actually very simple, it is four leading actors, Schwarzenegger, Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, Xu Teng, the middle two are in charge of emotional scenes, Schwarzenegger and Xu Teng are in charge of action scenes, and the most dangerous scenes are all when they go into battle.

The general process is very simple, Xu Teng first beat Schwarzenegger for forty minutes, then was paralyzed by Schwarzenegger several punches, and finally threw him into the steelmaking furnace very classically.

Although it was inevitable to die in the end, being able to press Schwarzenegger to the ground and beat him for 40 minutes was also a cool performance.

Xu Teng sat on the chair and listened to Li An explain the plot of the whole movie and the requirements for each leading actor, and couldn't wait to fight with Schwarzenegger first to see who was a parallel import.

He Jiali was also there, sitting behind Xu Teng as an interpreter.

During this time, He Jiali and Xia Li were helping him practice speaking and listening.

Even so, Xu Teng listened to Li An's dialogue with several leading actors, and he was still a little dizzy, he basically understood one sentence and missed one sentence, He Jiali helped him explain it in the back, so that he could understand it all.

The English vocabulary system is too complex, and the vocabulary of each professional English must be memorized, unless it is this professional field, it is difficult to cross the line, for example, the vocabulary of lawyers, doctors, and electronic engineers is actually not understood by ordinary Americans with low education level.

The efficiency of Americans making movies is very fast, and the entire shooting schedule of a big production like "Terminator 3" is three months, because Schwarzenegger's schedule is limited, and the clips of him and Xu Teng are concentrated in the front shooting, and they will be completed before the end of October.

The emotional scene between Christian Bale and Natalie Portman, the first half of the movie, is instead filmed in the back.

Two days later, the entire crew flew to Monterrey, Mexico, where a real sound stage had been set up, where most of the exterior locations were filmed, and some shots were shot in New York.

Xu Teng doesn't have to go to New York, all his scenes were filmed in Monterrey.

As a result, there was an accident on the first day of shooting, not that he was injured by Schwarzenegger, but that he did not control it well and sprained Schwarzenegger's wrist.

In the past six months, Xu Teng has trained his muscles and figure, and now he is exactly 80KG, exactly 180CM, and his weight/height ratio is close to 0.445, which is far less robust and burly than Schwarzenegger.

Therefore, Schwarzenegger really didn't expect Xu Teng's strength to be so strong.

This kind of action scene, as long as the filming starts, every one is prone to accidents.

Li An originally wanted to invite Yuan Heping to come over and design the movements, but because of the schedule problems, he found another famous martial arts instructor, Lin Di'an, who had just come from the crew of "The Matrix", and the designed movements were very concise, and they were more popular with the American film industry.

During the filming process, various languages were basically gathered, including English, Chinese, Cantonese, and Spanish...... It really reflects the characteristics of the United States as a country of immigrants.

Xu Teng is the first time to make a movie, and after more than ten days of shooting, he gradually found the feeling and rhythm, in fact, it is not as mysterious as he expected.

At the end of the night, Xu Teng also had a discussion with Lin Di'an, the other party was a showman, and he didn't have the strength in the old craft at all, and he was easily knocked down by Xu Teng, and he didn't ease his breath for a long time.

Schwarzenegger was also very interested, and played with Xu Teng, probably after figuring out the rules, he was dragged down by Xu Teng as soon as he got started.

This one is from a bodybuilding background, not a fighting star like Shang Ge Yunton, he is simply powerful, Xu Teng can easily knock him down with his hand handling and Tai Chi skills.

Schwarzenegger was a little unconvinced, in fact, he didn't figure out how he lost his balance, and he got up and came back a second time, only to be knocked down as soon as he got started, and this time he was really convinced.

Everyone in the studio applauded Xu Teng, and some shouted "Chinese kung fu".

Kung Fu yarn.

This is just playing, if you really want to fight, Schwarzenegger's 105KG/187CM physique and strength, just carry a steel pipe, and you can kill Xu Teng alive at once.

Xu Teng is here to work, his $1.4 million salary is only 1/11 of Schwarzenegger, 1/3 of Bell and Natalie Portman, the cheapest cheap labor among the four leading actors.

After work, he immediately prepared to go back to the hotel.

"Xiao Teng. Li An, who was sitting behind the camera watching the camera, got up and said hello and called Xu Teng over.

"What's wrong?" Xu Teng walked over, lowered his head, and followed Li An to see the camera effect, next to him was Christian Bale, a Welsh actor with extremely high self-requirements, and would ponder over and over again in almost every scene, discussing his state and handling with Director Li.

"You've been in really good shape these days, exceeding my expectations. Li An motioned for Xu Teng to sit on the folding stool next to him, and thought for a while, "Have you ever thought about it, do a little more work and participate in action design." ”

"Nope. Xu Teng confessed very frankly that his pleasure in the film industry was far less than writing novels, and he used to be very interested, who knew that it was so bitter, he would be injured every few days, and he and Schwarzenegger were unlucky if they had any accidents.

He can only act in action scenes, and a fixed pattern will be formed from the first part, if he keeps going this way, it will be really too hard, and he really can't do it.

"You can give it a try. Li An still tries to let Xu Teng do more work, although the salary is so much.

"Good. Xu Teng agreed.

"I think you're going to be famous because of this movie, and you're in very good shape, especially these days, and you're basically going to be able to meet the requirements in one or two, and even exceed my expectations. Li An has been pondering something, and thought for a while, "I think I can leave you more close-ups in the final edit." ”

"The condition is that I help with the movement design?" Xu Teng understood, Li An was between satisfaction and dissatisfaction with the current movement design, and in general, he also felt that it was decent and lacking in creativity.

Li An smiled and patted Xu Teng's shoulder in a very old man's demeanor, "Go back and think about it more, you are still very smart." ”

"Okay, I'll try. Xu Teng didn't want to snatch the job of action director Lin Di'an, in fact, Lin Di'an didn't fully tap the number of fights between the TX machine qì and the T850 machine qì people, according to reason, both can be fought with Chinese kung fu.

He decided to design a Tai Chi scene against the six-and-a-half long stick, and invited Gu Youxiang and Song Yuanyuan over to discuss it together, because Song Yuanyuan played both Xingyi and Wing Chun, and the six-and-a-half long stick practiced very well.

Of course, only one or two of the most exciting shots can't be played for a few minutes like a Hong Kong martial arts movie, and in a period of more than ten seconds, it shows the beauty and brilliance of Tai Chi and the six-and-a-half long stick.

Song Yuanyuan came quickly, she was too interested in this kind of thing, she just arrived in the morning, and came over in the afternoon to see the excitement.

Because of Li An, another professional translator on the set, and other investment projects in the United States, He Jiali has been in New York for the past few days, and she went to the University of Chicago to visit several alumni.

Gu Youxiang was originally in Chicago, but he also took a temporary flight back to Monterrey, Mexico in the afternoon to participate in the action design of Xu Teng and Lin Di'an.

In the evening, they tried it on the set, Xu Teng had no problem, he practiced Gu Youxiang's Tai Chi Red Boxing, he was very familiar, Schwarzenegger couldn't, what six and a half sticks, one and a half can't be done.

Song Yuanyuan taught for two hours, and the visual effect of beating a dog stick was almost the same.

Xu Teng watched from the side, basically watched, there was no big difference from the long stick routine of Red Fist and the National Sports Commission, Li An watched from the side and didn't speak, so as not to put too much pressure on everyone.

Christian Bale and Natalie Portman, as well as several other actors watching the excitement on the side, are quite interested in Chinese kung fu.

"That's it, let's play a counter-effect, I beat the T850 machine with a six-and-a-half-hour stick, and the T850 was beaten and couldn't bear it, and again, this old-school fighting, I will too, and then use Tai Chi to fight back. "Xu Teng can only reduce the difficulty, because Tai Chi only needs to learn a frame.

"I thought I could give it a try. Li An was the first to agree, because he really couldn't stand it, Schwarzenegger's stick skills were no different from hooligan fights, and he couldn't beat the chic feeling of a traditional long stick at all, even if he used special effects, he couldn't make up for it.

Xu Teng picked up a long stick, turned his hand and held it, and started with a long stick routine, this is a professional national second-level martial arts athlete, don't look at the show, the action indicators are still very accurate, handsome and cool.

"Wonderful!" Natalie Portman looked happy, and there were people whistling on set.

Xu Teng has reduced the difficulty of the whole action design, and it has become more interesting, however, the fancy style of Tai Chi is not easy to learn, he has to be responsible for the design, Schwarzenegger tossed for several hours, and finally became more and more similar.

This kind of action and temperament, Chinese will play, because usually in TV dramas and movies often see, subtle, there are many reference patterns, foreigners are different, they have not seen, and it is very complicated, temporary to learn, a little chicken is not like a chicken, duck is not like a duck, not a funny sense.

"Let's practice tomorrow for another day. Xu Teng decided to spend more time, although time is money, these Americans' filming contracts are extremely strict, no more than a day, an extra hour has to be settled.

In the face of such a strict contract, Xu Teng's request is a bit exaggerated, after all, it is just a matter of the lens.

It is impossible to agree with an American director, and the other party may still think that Schwarzenegger's actions are very good.

"Then I'll adjust it tomorrow and shoot the next few segments first. Li An agreed, because he really felt that Schwarzenegger did not meet that standard, and the effect of the film could only coax the American audience.

Xu Teng thought about it carefully and decided to add a design, which came to mind from the Hokage, "You can make a special effect, my long stick is extracted from my own bones, anyway, I am a TX machine qì person, my whole body can be deformed, and I can also automatically generate new mechanical bones." ”

"Beautiful creativity. Li An agreed again, glanced at Lin Di'an, and told the other party that he didn't mean to let Xu Teng come to grab his job, you are really inferior to him, and he was born to play with these things.

"In this way, Yuanyuan, you teach Mr. Schwarzenegger tomorrow, and my play can be delayed without delay...... Hurry up a little longer, I feel that if I am allowed to play this kind of thing, there is a high probability that I will have to toss it again and again. Xu Teng shrugged his shoulders and looked at Li An, implying that you are asking for trouble for yourself.

"I'll invite you to drink in the evening. Li An smiled very casually and happily, this is a happy annoyance, if you postpone it, you will be paid more, and the most important thing is that the movie is made well.

The efficiency of Americans in making movies is indeed very exaggerated, basically from morning to night, Xu Teng can only sleep five or six hours a day, sometimes he sleeps in the nanny car, waiting for the set to be ready.

In this kind of action scene, it is even more common to suffer some skin trauma.

It's really hard and tired, Xu Teng is still very interested, especially when he is responsible for designing action scenes, then he can play more handsome, he can play whatever he can do, use the language of the movie to control zhì in place, play handsome without procrastination, keep chasing and beating Schwarzenegger, and fight with various tricks.

Even, he had to redesign some of the previous shots and make up some shots, such as the shot of falling down by the impact of the explosion, he asked himself and Schwarzenegger to give full play to their balance and calculation ability, control their bodies, and stand firm in the most handsome posture.

Whether it's somersaults, special effects, tough guys, or tough guys, we must show the madness and artistic temperament of TX and the tough guy temperament of T850 to the fullest.

He didn't think that if he continued to play like this, he would be pitted alive, and in the end, once he became famous, other directors would also invite him to act in action scenes and design actions, and he estimated that he would have to drink this bitter wine himself. (To be continued.) )
