After Simon Publishing officially signed the contract, Lin Mingyang was recalled to the crew by a phone call from Brooksheimer. The preparations for "Pirates of the Caribbean" were full of twists and turns, during which a studio used by the film's crew accidentally caught fire, causing $350,000 in economic damage, although no one was injured.

In the selection of the filming location, the crew also suffered a lot of setbacks. Bruckheimer and Wibinski had hoped to shoot in the giant sink of Rosalitto, Baja California, Mexico, where "Titanic" and "Pearl Harbor" were filmed, but were shot in the same year by "The Furious Seas: Polar Expedition."

Despite encountering many problems, the crew finally completed the preparations before the filming of the film. The makeup artist's design for Lin Mingyang resembles Keanu Reeves's appearance in "Little Living Buddha", half of his oriental blood makes him born with an extremely pure and simple temperament, with some curly long black hair, and the image of a free and easy thief jumps on the page.

In the play, Lin Mingyang often has to wear his upper body, or only wear a small shoulder, and the tough bronze muscles of his upper body make his appearance a little more tough and resolute. At the request of the stylist, the gauze wrapped in Lin Mingyang's hands because of boxing practice is still retained in the play, and this arrangement is to provide convenience for Lin Mingyang to show his strength in the play.

Before the official start of filming of the film, in order to cooperate with the publicity, the crew specially released a group of stills of the leading actors. Lin Mingyang's new look has attracted the attention of many people, and even the media, which has always been stingy with newcomers, has given a lot of positive comments to Hollywood. But Captain Jack, played by starring Johnny Depp, is not as lucky as him, and almost all the media have criticized his appearance in the film, and some even made sarcastic remarks.

Of course, this is not to blame the screenwriter, it should be said that the script that Rocío and Elliott came up with is still relatively "regular", although this movie is obviously not a fantasy adventure drama for children, but the Captain Jack in the script is not as eccentric and alternative as in the stills.

It's all thanks to director Gore Verbinski and star Johnny Depp, although the two didn't know if it would work to make the character so crazy and weird, but they still took the risk together. Captain Jack's look combines some of the common surnames of rocker Keith Richards and the famous French cartoon character "Pepelepew": unstable, wild, do-it-all-want, contradictory and chaotic.

Under his interpretation, the heroic Captain Jack in the script becomes a shrewd adventurer, with a light-hearted, unpaused, sleek tone, speaking feminine and cunning words like a woman, and swaying when he walks, all of which make the teeth of the executives of the Disney Company chatter, and even before the film has even started, some people assert that Depp alone can ruin the hugely expensive film, and mock him Captain Jack for looking like a.

Although Johnny Depp said in front of the media that he did not simply imitate Richards' movements, but captured the essence of it, which is a beautiful and lazy confidence, the thick eyeshadow on the eyes and the string of beads in the hair are all signs of "freedom". But this explanation ushered in only a new round of cynicism from the media.

In the face of pressure from the top and ridicule from the media, the crew felt unprecedented pressure, and even the originally scheduled filming schedule was postponed, which shows that Wibinsky's current situation is a bit worrying, and it is even rumored that if Brooksheimer can't withstand the opposition from Disney's top management, Wibinski is likely to lose his position as director.

All kinds of gossip began to circulate in the crew, and even Exx became nervous, while inquiring about the news through his relationship within the Dinis Company, he also kept an eye on the latest developments of the crew through Lin Mingyang.

Such chaos in the crew is the last thing Lin Mingyang wants, you must know that Captain Jack's classic appearance is a key factor in the success of "Pirates of the Caribbean", and Johnny Depp also got an Oscar nomination for Best Actor for his innovative performance in the film.

In order to avoid the celebrity who "sank" the film before it was filmed, he has been looking for an opportunity to talk to producer Brooksheimer, but during this time, he basically can't see each other's figures in the crew, and even the director Vybinski is also a simple person, and anyone will be a little depressed when they encounter such a situation.

In the crew, Lin Mingyang met Keira Knightley several times, but he didn't know where he was lively with this big beauty, and greeted him warmly, Keira Knightley didn't color it every time, and her cold attitude was like the two had never known each other, which made Lin Mingyang very depressed.

Of course, he hasn't learned nothing from wandering around the crew these days, at least he is familiar in front of the staff of various departments. Today, Lin Mingyang just returned to his residence from the photography group, but it happened that he met the thorny English rose again at the door.

Glared at by Keira Knightley's resentful eyes, Lin Mingyang could only put away the bright smile on his face that he had just prepared, watched the other party walk past him as if no one was there, and then closed the door with a bang, the expression on Lin Mingyang's face was somewhat helpless.

"You must have that girl off!" A voice suddenly sounded behind Lin Mingyang, and he turned his head to see that it was Johnny Depp, who had been in controversy all this time. This is the first time Lin Mingyang has met this Hollywood star during non-working hours, the famous "Edward Scissorhands".

"Mr. Depp!" Lin Mingyang smiled a little embarrassedly, "You misunderstood, I definitely didn't bully her, in fact, even I don't know what is going on, she suddenly seems to be a different person, and then ignores me!" ”

"It seems that you should have known each other before, and from my personal experience, it takes a lot of patience to treat girls!" Johnny Depp laughed, he seemed to have misunderstood the relationship between Lin Mingyang and Keira Knightley.

"Things are not as you imagined..."Lin Mingyang, who boasted of being not thin-skinned, also blushed at this time.

Johnny Depp felt that the teenager in front of him was a little cute, which made him suddenly interested in Lin Mingyang. "You're so much better than I was then, and in my damned school, the students were divided into three classes: rich kids, smart kids, and country kids, and my appearance suddenly opened up a fourth class, weird kids, so no girl ever looked at me."

Looking at Lin Mingyang's expression of disbelief, Johnny Depp smiled self-deprecatingly, and he pointed to his room: "Come and sit with me?" ”

Of course, Lin Mingyang would not refuse such an invitation, holding that cup of steaming coffee in the room, Lin Mingyang became the best confidant of Johnny Depp, who was depressed because of Captain Jack's appearance recently. He didn't complain about the trouble now, but talked to Lin Mingyang about some of his previous things.

"When I was 15 years old, my parents benefited, and I moved to Los Angeles with my mother, and soon she married a man named Robert Palmer. I didn't have a serious family dinner in those days, and I was in the bar until late at night and no one asked. ”

Talking about this gray memory of indulgence and boredom, he always has a slight self-deprecation in his expression: "At that time I was deeply curious about everything, but the way of chasing certain curiosities was extremely ilcorrect, but unfortunately no one controlled me at that time. So I learned to smoke at the age of 12, I was no longer a virgin at the age of 13, I tasted marijuana at the age of 14, got a tattoo at the age of 15, and dared to take a sheep in the supermarket at the age of 16...... If I wasn't where I am now, you'd think I'm a complete bad seed! ”

Lin Mingyang shook his head, "I know that President Roosevelt also had vices in his early years, but he eventually became the most outstanding leader of the United States!" ”

"Thank you for your review, but I'm not as great as President Roosevelt!" Johnny Depp smiled, then went on to talk about his first failed marriage: "When I got married at the age of twenty, everyone couldn't believe that I would make such a hasty decision, and I didn't want to explain anything in terms of love. But now I think that if you're lucky, it's enough for you to experience divorce once in your life. ”

"I was four years old when 'Edward Scissorhands' came out, and my mom certainly wouldn't have taken me to the cinema to see your great performance, and many years later I watched the movie and heard the story of you and Miss Winona, I haven't met your current wife, but I was very impressed with the couple you played with Miss Winona in the movie!"

In 1990, Depp played the robot protagonist in Tim Burton's "Edward Scissorhands", before starring in this film, Depp and Winona had a vigorous love, tabloids were speculating about when Depp would put Winona with an engagement ring, and then Johnny Depp was nominated for the Golden Globe for the first time with this film, but his promising marriage with Winona lasted only three years before it broke down, which made many fans sigh at the time.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with a couple of lovers acting in a movie. At least, filming with Winona is the greatest happiness of my life! When it comes to former lovers, Johnny Depp inevitably has some emotion.

"I think it's really good, too!" Lin Mingyang smiled wryly, he heard the hint in the other party's words, Johnny Depp said such things as a person who came over, and Lin Mingyang heard some faint exhortation.

"Tell me about you, then!" Johnny Depp just stopped at this question, "I heard a lot of stories about you in the crew some time ago!" ”

Lin Mingyang scratched his head, "Actually, there is nothing to say, at first I was just interested in writing scripts and songs." I happened to meet Mr. Kenny Ortega while working part-time during the summer vacation, and then I had the later "Youth Musical", and I still have a long way to go compared to you! ”

"Your talent and opportunities are not comparable to me at that time, as long as you are willing to work hard, your future achievements will definitely be above me!" Johnny Depp's surname has changed a lot since he became a father, and he began to appear in various newspapers and magazines with a more positive image after he was frozen on the screen with a decadent image, but this time the controversy over Captain Jack's appearance gave him a very heavy blow. However, for a newcomer with great potential like Lin Mingyang, he did not skimp on his praise.

"Are you still struggling with that?" Lin Mingyang saw through his thoughts.

"It's worse than I thought, if it doesn't work I'll quit!" To be able to say such a thing, Johnny Depp must have made a lot of determination.

"But I think you should persevere!" Lin Mingyang said something that surprised the other party for the first time.

The people around him are persuading Johnny Depp to give up, because they think that this insistence will only lead him to a dead end in the end, and then bury the reputation he has worked so hard to build. Johnny Depp himself is also very conflicted, at this time, Lin Mingyang stood up and expressed his support to him, how could he not be surprised?

"Is this what you really think?"

"Do you think it's necessary for me to please you at this time?" Lin Mingyang's retort was loud.

Johnny Depp squinted his eyes and looked at the dark-haired boy in front of him seriously, and then he remembered that Lin Mingyang was the little guy who had been praised by Brooksheimer, and he was directly involved in the revision of the script, and he may really have his own reasons for saying this.

"Can I hear what you think?"

"I have to say that after "Red Pirate", Hollywood has never had a decent pirate film. Of course, you can't play a vicious pirate, but this character is definitely not the absolute hero that most people imagine, with sleek sophistication, but also a little uninhibited, acting grotesquely but always with their own reasons, hiding a persistent heart behind the absurd, don't you feel that you are creating an image of a pirate captain like never before. I think your performance alone is enough to make this film re-establish itself as a classic in its genre! ”

"But Disney's top brass doesn't think so, and Hollywood's media doesn't agree with that!" Johnny Depp shook his head painfully.

"You shouldn't just give up, you can have a good talk with Mr. Bruckheimer, tell him what you think and know about this character, and then he will come forward to convince Disney's top management!" Lin Mingyang began to give Johnny Depp advice, "As for the media, they have never had a firm position, and the final result of the film will make them all obediently shut up!" ”
