Chapter 66: A Wonderful Experience
The crew's break was extended to three days, because the lead actor Leonardo took three days off, and according to the information he sent, Xiansen probably knew that it seemed that his psychiatrist took him somewhere, which was quite far from Los Angeles.
Vacation sometimes does not mean rest, at least for Xiansen, he still has a lot to do, in these three days, while selecting the members of the studio, while discussing with Cook the arrangement of the "Million Musicians" event, and even sometimes participating in the initial promotion plan of the film, when all these things need to be done by himself, Xiansen feels so tired, this is the double tiredness of the soul and **.
"Do I need an assistant?"
Lying on the bed tiredly, Xiansen had such a thought in his mind for the first time. You must know that people are not omnipotent, everyone has what they are not good at, such as management, and planning, these fields are the blind spots of Xiansen, but as a director, he has to participate in it.
"If I could, I should find an assistant who understands economics, management, and is smart!"
Thinking of this, Xiansen couldn't help laughing, how can such a comprehensive talent be found by looking for it.
“oh-oh,ican’tbelievewe’rethrough”
Xiansen's cell phone rang suddenly, and the ringtone was "sightofyou" that he had sung to Reese Witherspoon, and although there were some unpleasant things, he never changed it.
“leo? What was he calling for so late? ”
Glancing at the call reminder on his mobile phone, Xiansen pressed it in confusion.
"Hey Mister, how have you been these three days? Missed me? Hahaha"
Leonardo was smiling happily and seemed to be in a good mood.
"Miss you, oh, you dead glass, you disgust me when you call."
Xiansen smiled and disdainned, and then asked, "Has your fear of heights been cured?" Three days? I don't think there are such great psychiatrists in the world! You must have gone on vacation on your own. ”
"Haha, I'm sorry, dear, to disappoint you, my fear of heights has been completely cured, and I can be on it in the future, you know."
Leonardo deliberately made a joke in a silvery tone, of course, this kind of funny joke would be disgusting if someone else heard it.
"Die, if you're just here to show me that an old man who is almost thirty years old finally won't stand on a high place to pee his pants, I'm going to hang up the phone, and I might as well let a beautiful woman pee his pants in my dreams."
In terms of poisonous tongue, Xiansen is not much worse than Leonardo, the two of them despised each other for a long time, and finally ended with Leonardo's early defeat, in terms of shamelessness, Leonardo is still too far behind.
"Okay, you won, in fact, in addition to curing my fear of heights this time, I also want to introduce you to a person, a woman!"
Leonardo was a little excited, and his voice trembled slightly when he talked about this woman: "You know, I want to introduce her to our crew as an assistant director, to be honest, this woman is definitely capable of adjusting the current state of the crew." ”
It is originally very taboo for an actor to say these words in front of the director, after all, the responsibilities of the director and the actor themselves are not the same, just like the ancient Chinese civil officials did not lead troops and military attaches did not participate in politics. But for Leonardo, he won't think about these at all, because Xiansen has complained to him more than once, and Xiansen and Leonardo have also talked together for a long time about the various contradictions in the open and secretly of the crew, in Xiansen's words, the two of them are now grasshoppers in the same boat, and no one wants to be easy.
"Woman? Leo, are you doubting my charm? ”
Xiansen smiled and continued to tease: "A woman wants to be an assistant director? What is she capable of? You won't be smitten by her. ”
Hearing Xiansen's disbelieving tone, Leonardo explained: "Mister, this woman is a double Ph.D. in economic management and psychology from Stanford University, and she is also the deputy secretary of the corporate management department of the California Economic Development Bureau of the U.S. Department of Commerce, and she is also my psychiatrist. ”
"Well, that sounds good, but why did this deputy minister and psychiatrist want to come and make a movie?"
As scary as these names sounded, Xiansen remained unmoved, yes, he did want to find an assistant, but this assistant had to be smart and obedient. If you really find a deputy minister to come back, it's really hard to say who will serve whom.
"Actually, she hates the position of director the most, because her ex-husband is a director."
"That he"
Knowing what Xiansen wanted to ask, Leonardo interrupted and continued: "The director has become her psychological shadow, and she wants to overcome this mental illness, so she is ready to do the opposite. ”
"The opposite? Isn't she afraid that she will be driven crazy? ”
Xiansen became interested in this reason all of a sudden, a doctor of psychology had a mental illness himself, and then forced himself to face the psychological shadow in a forced way, and finally allowed himself to correct the disease, haha, what a bloody story.
"Crazy?"
Leonardo couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he heard this, he did go crazy at first, but he got used to it when he was crazy, this was his personal experience!
"Leo, what's that woman's name?"
Xiansen asked curiously, to be honest, if this woman was really that magical, he wouldn't mind hiring her as his assistant director, which would save him from looking for it himself.
"Bella Marceau, a white-robed mage."
Hearing this name, Xiansen muttered quietly, and he felt as if he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.
"Bella Marceau, I hope your female mage is as magical as you say."
"You won't be disappointed!"
After a long night and no intention of sleeping, after hanging up Xiansen's phone, Leonardo threw his phone on the bed, walked to the window, and looked up at the stars.
"How can we overcome psychological fear? In my answer, it's to push the limits and challenge the difficulties you never dared to face! So, our first destination for the day, the 10-meter jump! ”
"People have an instinctive reaction to fear, how can they turn instinctive evasion into a brave face? A lot of times you have to go far beyond the limits of the challenge, and the next destination for us is bungee jumping!"
"Wrap your arms around my waist, hey, leo, you seem to be shy, you can forget your fears because of this, should I praise you or despise you"
Leonardo's mind recalled three days that were absolutely crazy for him, and he couldn't help but smile knowingly, it was truly an amazing experience
