Chapter 181: Gossip Men and Women
Lin Mingyang never judges a person based on the evaluation of others, whether Beckman Betov is a director who can tell stories, and how good his storytelling skills are, can only be known after reading the script.
When reading the script, Lin Mingyang turned the page quickly, and the nonchalant attitude on his face seemed too contemptuous in the eyes of Beckman Betov, a serious Russian director. Beckman Betov raised an eyebrow, and Pratt quickly glanced at him, stopping his reckless impulse.
Of the more than 100 pages of scripts, Lin Mingyang only took half an hour to roughly read through them. The story is not much different from what he remembers, the male protagonist of the nest is born escapist, and his life is full of failures: in the company, his boss takes pleasure in torturing him; At home, his girlfriend treats him as air. Then the appearance of a woman with a cold surname takes his future into an exciting and even fateful journey.
Whether it's the godlike Righteous Warrior special training, the unique "Bending Bullet Time", the fly shooting skill that pierces through the Yang in a hundred steps, the secret assassin organization, or the speeding car chase from "The Guardian", the words are full of primitive heartiness.
And the original coolness also means that the extremely stylish heroes and heroines never forget to show off their hot surnames, from bold physical temptation to lingering tongue kisses, just these erotic-violent passages mentioned in the script are enough to make this film deserve an R-rated rating.
Gently closing the script, Lin Mingyang looked at Pratt with a smile, "When are we going to start?" β
-- According to the normal procedure, Pratt should have further discussed the contract with Lin Mingyang. But the real situation was a little different from what he expected, and the accident happened to Beckman Betov. When Pratt and Lin Mingyang were having a good conversation, the Russian director suddenly said something.
After the translator's explanation, Lin Mingyang knew that the director was asking his opinion about the script. From the other party's face, he could see an expression of distrust and even suspicion.
Lin Mingyang was slightly stunned, "Is Mr. Tim doubting my ability?" β
"I think it's a misunderstanding..."Seeing that he could sign a contract with Lin Mingyang smoothly, Beckman Betov stepped in and led the situation to the position, Pratt kept giving him a look, but the stubborn "polar bear" didn't pay attention to his kindness.
He said a word to Lin Mingyang, and then the translator explained: "Mr. Tim said that you were not serious when you read the script, and he doubted whether you knew the positioning of this film. β
This habit of quickly flipping through the script is related to Lin Mingyang's reading speed that is different from ordinary people, others seem to be just flipping through it casually, but in fact, he is reading it very seriously. This often caused misunderstandings among others, and he had to struggle to explain it every time, but this time he decided to take a different approach.
"I know that this script was changed by Beckman Betov himself, and you ask him to ask a few questions and see if I can answer them." Lin Mingyang said these words to Beckman Betov's translator, and after he finished speaking, he smiled at Pratt next to him: "This should be able to test whether I have read the script seriously or not." β
Hearing the confidence in Lin Mingyang's tone, Pratt handed the translator a color, and then the other party translated Lin Mingyang's original words to Beckman Betov, who also agreed with the proposal.
Beckman Betov asked five questions, and Lin Mingyang answered all of them correctly. His performance shocked the Russian director, whose eyes widened and he exclaimed, "This can't be... It's amazing! β
After Pratt introduced Lin Mingyang to Beckman Betov through a translator, and he was also an excellent screenwriter, he looked at Lin Mingyang's expression with a hint of amazement.
After this episode, the two sides successfully signed a cooperation agreement. A stone in Pratt's heart has finally landed, Beckman Betov is excited that he has an extra $15 million in filming funds, and Lin Mingyang is looking forward to working with Julie again.
ββββThe scandalous couple in the past, the agent sister and brother on the screen of the year collided passionately again, this news attracted great attention from the media as soon as it was announced, and fans also rarely showed great attention and enthusiasm for this movie that has not yet started shooting.
Hollywood's most surnamed actor, this is Lin Mingyang's name that he has hung up a long time ago, in "Blood Diamond", he just played maturity once, not to mention winning the crown of Oscar, and even his own charm index also rose with his own salary.
And after Angelina Jolie divorced her ex-husband, she became much more low-key in front of the media, but she did not lag behind in her career. She has always occupied the position of the most surnamed actress, no one can shake it, and she was ranked first in the annual list of the top 100 actresses with surnames in the world-famous male surname magazine "Gang of Men" last year.
Before the film officially started, the ubiquitous paparazzi had already begun to act, and even the director Beckman Betov, a "Russian Yankee", was "unfortunately" involved in the scandal between Lin Mingyang and Julie. In an interview with the media, he said that there had been an offer from the paparazzi, who claimed that as long as they took a photo of Lin Mingyang and Jolie together, they would ask for $300,000.
For the heavily armed paparazzi hovering around the periphery of the crew, director Beckman Betov and producer Pratt were already a headache, but I don't know if the damn guy slipped his mouth and leaked the scenes of Julie's naked appearance and Lin Mingyang's more nude performance in the film, and now it is not only the media that is excited, but even the fans are excited.
In the impression of fans, it was a long time ago for Lin Mingyang to show his muscles in "Pirates of the Caribbean", and in his subsequent film works, there are no such exposed shots. Many female fans talked about Lin Mingyang's figure in private, and they still praised it, and there was indescribable nostalgia in their tone.
And many fans with male surnames have begun to fantasize about how large-scale Julie's performance in the film will be, although this rumor has not been confirmed by the crew, but at this time, many "perverts" have begun to swallow saliva there.
Director Beckman Betov told the interviewers very directly that the film will be full of "inappropriate" violence, nudity and surname sense shots, the actors will be bold enough to make the audience jaw-dropping, and the use of many unbelievable lethal weapons in the film.
Such an answer is somewhat evasive, but the reporters still drew a lot of evidence from his words, and a movie that is positioned with an "R" rating will definitely not let everyone's speculation come to naught.
In the process of media coverage of this film, the most interesting thing is not the quality itself, but the overwhelming scandal of the protagonist and the lace news that is more exciting than the movie. Avid fans and the media forgot to pursue screenwriter Morgan Freeman's regret that many scenes were cut in order to take care of the two "big-name" starring; forgot to investigate the congenital deficiencies that are likely to occur in comic adaptations; I forgot to investigate the question of whether the new Russian director could bring a glorious commercial record from the first "migration" from icy Siberia to the sunny West Coast of the United States. In short, everyone thought that this film would be a dazzling feast for the senses that blended special effects, action and thriller elements.
ββββIn order to get rid of the paparazzi of the prisoners, the crew made a "[***] array", and they announced that the film would start shooting in Los Angeles, but the real filming location was in Chicago. At the very beginning, this trick of the golden cicada shelled successfully confused the attention of the media.
The film officially started filming in early July, and Lin Mingyang arrived a week later than everyone because of the academic exam. Because there was a scene with him in the afternoon, Lin Mingyang rushed to the crew as soon as he got off the plane.
When Lin Mingyang walked out of director Beckman Betov's office, there was still more than an hour before the start of filming in the afternoon, and the crew had a dressing room specially arranged for him, and he was going to go there to rest first.
When he opened the door, Lin Mingyang unexpectedly found that there was another person in the dressing room, he subconsciously looked back at the house number, and found that he had not gone wrong.
"Surprised?" Angelina Jolie, dressed in a beige dress, asked with a smile on her face, half-leaning on the dressing table, supporting her whole body with her hands facing back.
"There was indeed some surprise!" Lin Mingyang nodded, locked the door very "consciously" when he closed the door, and then said with a smile: "This is my dressing room, you can't go to the wrong room, right?" β
Julie put her hands on her feet, sat down on the dressing table, and then put her right leg on top of her left leg, gently shook the high heels on her feet, put on an extremely sultry posture, and asked with silky eyes: "What do you say?" β
Lin Mingyang walked up to her and tried to take his eyes off Julie's two smooth and seductive thighs, "I feel like you're here to discuss the role with me!" β
Julie reached out and put her arms around his neck and leaned her face in front of Lin Mingyang, "Bad guy, do you miss me?" β
Lin Mingyang only felt hot all over his body, and from the first time he saw Julie, an uncontrollable ** rose in his body. If it weren't for the fear that Julie would blame him for being too greedy, he would have wanted to untie her dress when he entered the house and correct the Fa on the spot.
Julie's initiative made Lin Mingyang unload the last trace of worry in his heart, he grabbed Julie's thin waist and hugged her into his arms, his lips and tongue were already greedily mixed with each other.
Lin Mingyang's two hands in the hot kiss also began to be dishonest, and his left hand reached into her arms. The best thing is that Julie is actually in a vacuum today, which makes Lin Mingyang pinch her swollen breasts in his hands without hindrance and keep rubbing them. And his other hand ran down Julie's thigh, into the corner of her skirt, kneading her round buttocks wantonly.
In the middle of love, Julie's whole body was hugged by Lin Mingyang, and the room only heard the crunch sound of high heels falling to the ground and the sound of clothes sliding down, and then only boundless moans and heavy gasps remained.
