The movie is about to start filming. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info【】

On this day, the big guys were very excited.

Whether it is director Xu Ke or all the actors, they are ready to work hard at this last moment, strive for it all over again, and shoot their roles well.

This scene is a very important scene in the play, and the first meeting of the three characters takes place in the mall. Of course, it was not a chance encounter, but a scene after chasing to the mall.

"Tang Zai, wait a minute, you come over there with a gun in your hand!" Xu Ke made a gesture of holding a gun, and then turned his face to look at Madonna: "Madonna, you are the same as Tang Zai, but you come from another direction!" ”

"Mike, don't be too nervous in this scene, just relax a little!" Xu Ke looked at Mike. Jackson smiled, after contact with him these days, Xu Ke has already fallen in love with this popular king, not to mention that Mike King always invited him to dinner, and Xu Lao Wei was almost embarrassed to eat, "You come from three directions, don't deliberately maintain the direction, but the posture must be exquisite!" ”

After explaining a few words, Chen Xiaotang and the three of them nodded again and again, in fact, before filming, most of the directors didn't know what they wanted, what they wanted, what was precise. Therefore, many times the actor needs to perform different things and make choices for the director. However, perhaps Xu Keqian likes to play cameos in the play, for example, in "Best Partner", he played a very good mental patient, full of "beep", saying that he is a federal agent...... So he's also quite good at acting.

Chen Xiaotang exchanged a look with Mike and Madonna, each came to his own position, glanced at the cameras around him, and immediately guessed that this was a panoramic shot, and wanted to put the positions of himself and the other three under the lens.

Looking at the mall, there are a lot of ghosts around me. Chen Xiaotang smiled slightly, closed his eyes a little, took a deep breath, and the whole person seemed to immediately turn into the actor he had studied for a long time! With a loud shout, it's on!

Everyone at the scene began to move, and Chen Xiaotang walked towards Madonna in the crowd. He wanted to look left and right to convey that he was tracking Mike, but on second thought, he didn't make any left-right movements in order to show more confidence and sharpness. Instead, it has always been quietly moving forward with a relaxed pace!

Madonna, who plays the female killer who assists Chen Xiaotang, nods her head slightly at Chen Xiaotang, indicating that she already knows what he is doing.

At this time, Mike in the camera is carrying a guitar case with a weapon and getting off the mall elevator.

Mike saw Chen Xiaotang and Madonna, who were converging. He frowned......

“cut!” The scene reporter shouted quickly, and his eyes fell on the face of director Xu Ke. Xu Ke's expression remained unchanged, he just frowned tightly and thought about it, and finally shouted to everyone: "OK, the next shot!" ”

The focus of the shopping mall scene is a scene where the three people meet, and the other scenes can pass at once, but this scene is extremely difficult to do. Shot several times in a row. Xu Ke had a seizure, and couldn't help but roar: "What kind of plane are you doing, how did you act just now......

Chen Xiaotang hurriedly patted Mike and Madonna on the shoulder, so as not to upset the king and queen. Mike and Madonna couldn't help but roll their eyes. During this time, everyone was familiar with each other, and they were already surprised by Xu Laowei's "strange temper", and they should be cultivating concentration.

Roar and roar. Seeing the three of them coming to him, Old Monster Xu shut up. He glanced at Mike angrily and gestured with an action: "Mike, I said, don't be too nervous, your role is never nervous about anything, don't play too hard, relax a little!" ”

Mike suddenly smiled wryly, God, how can it be so easy; Besides, there are too many exquisiteness in this shot, and it is a standing position, a close-up of the face, and a posture with a gun!

After pondering for a moment, Heavenly King Mike took advantage of the fact that Xu Lao Wei was teaching the other two to make various movements and gestures one after another. Relaxed, slowed down a few steps, waved his arms, opened the guitar case, and held a long gun in his hand......

After another performance, Chen Xiaotang smiled and patted Mike's shoulder: "Don't be nervous, Mike, it's the last scene, you just need to fully devote yourself to it!" ”

“**! To put it mildly, if I'm as good as you are, then I don't have to worry about anything! Mike muttered, but was heard by Madonna next to him, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "Dear Mike, I didn't expect you to have times when you envy people... But my dear Chen is right, acting, you can't be serious, you can't be too serious, as long as you are involved in it, then you are another person! ”

King Mike nodded helplessly, he is absolutely super strong in singing, and no one dares to admit the first when he recognizes the second; But in terms of acting, he thinks that he is not as much as Chen Xiaotang, especially not as free as Chen Xiaotang.

After filming these days, King Mike also has some understanding of acting. In his eyes, film performance is also divided into two ways, the first is to completely substitute the role by yourself, which is mostly suitable for newcomers like him, or people who are not strong in acting. The second type is a guy like Chen Xiaotang, who is full of drama, who does not need to substitute for the role, but can deeply imprint the role with his personal style by showing his acting skills.

Playing against such a strongman, how can Mike not feel inferior? Regardless of his identity as the king, he is always being n-machine, so just saying that the gap in the realm of performance is enough to make Mike embarrassed! With his acting skills, if he doesn't stimulate it with all his might, I'm afraid that he will be completely compared!

When he came to the position, the field reporter asked the camera, the radio and the personnel who laid the track, etc., and saw that they were all ready, so he shouted: "! ”

At this moment, Mike decided, substitute in, can't be laughed at by Rafi Chen that he is useless, he is the king of Hollywood!

Thinking of this, the wry smile on Mike's face suddenly disappeared without a trace, replaced by confidence and cheerfulness that filled his face.

Yes, I will definitely be able to play it well!

The camera moves in orbit.

Chen Xiaotang, Madonna, and Mike. Jackson was buried separately.

In the camera, after Chen Xiaotang and Madonna converged, they moved in the direction of Mike.

There is a rush of people, and the camera looks very busy.

on the horizontal elevator of the store. Mike spotted the two people who were following him, the corners of his mouth curled, and the moment he got off the elevator, he jumped up suddenly, and the whole person slid down the elevator handrail. As he glided, he raised his hand and the guitar case opened, revealing a long gun in his hand......

The camera changed, and the male protagonist played by Chen Xiaotang raised his right hand slightly. The jet-black muzzle of the gun is exposed. Just seeing a number of people rushing in front of him, he couldn't help lowering the muzzle of the gun a little, but after a wave of people in front of him rushed by, a figure fell from the sky...... Sliding down the elevator to be exact, the man with the gun stood in front of him!

Camera cuts. Madonna, who joined Chen Xiaotang, also suddenly pulled out her gun......

The situation of confrontation was formed.

The camera was still sliding, and the director Xu Ke was nervously sweating, looking at the camera without blinking.

Also as nervous as he was was the photographer, the scene reporter and others.

Everyone is very tired, very hard, and they all want to call it a day and go home quickly. Although there are serious film unions in the United States to protect the rights and interests of workers. It is forbidden to work overtime without restrictions, but if you really have to film, who can control so much.

In the shot, King Mike is holding a spear. The muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at Chen Xiaotang, and Madonna's gun was pointed at Mike's head.

Chen Xiaotang looked at the muzzle of the gun pointed at him, as if nothing happened.

There was a scream and they fled in all directions.

Movement and stillness are set off. The panic and composure make all this a wonderful and indescribable atmosphere! There are no lines. There's no dialogue, not even action, but it's still very subtle!

Close-up of the shot.

Enlarge Mike's muzzle and a bullet slides out!

Then I saw Chen Xiaotang bending over, the classic iron horse bridge...... The bullet slashed through the tip of his nose and fired!

Yes, this scene is similar to the scene where Keanu Reeves dodged bullets in the previous life "Hacker Empire", except that Levi dodged rows of bullets, but Chen Xiaotang dodged a bullet at close range.

Close-up:

Mike's expression was incredulous.

Madonna's expression was expected.

Chen Xiaotang got up, the corners of his mouth curled, and he smiled slightly.

At this moment, director Xu Ke jumped up happily and shouted: "cut!" Great, that's what I wanted, you guys did a great job, very good! Director Xu Ke exclaimed.

When everyone around heard the director shouting cut, they all became happy and cheered, and the ghosts were also human, so it was inevitable that there would be a lot of noise.

Chen Xiaotang, Mike and Madonna are also very happy, after all, this drama has condensed a lot of their hard work, and it is definitely worth celebrating if it can be successfully filmed.

So, Mike proposed, "Let's go to Hi Pi tonight, Rafite, don't you say no!" ”

Chen Xiaotang laughed, "As long as you have a treat, I will not refuse to come!" ”

Mike raised his middle finger and spoke jerky Chinese: "Pick!" ”

……

Hollywood is definitely the place with the most bars and nightclubs in the world. One of the most famous is the "Beverly Bar Street" of the rich celebrity home.

Beverly Bar Street, located near the Beverly Villas, is a favorite hangout for the biggest names and is one of Hollywood's most expensive gold caves.

Walking to the bar street, the atmosphere is immediately different from the rest of Los Angeles, this cobblestone paved path has a European atmosphere, and there are many bars and restaurants on both sides. Most bars are open from noon to 1 a.m. or later. English and Australian bars, as well as Japanese karaoke lounges, serve snacks throughout the day. Whenever night falls, many American rich people and celebrities in the entertainment industry like to gather here, which also adds another unique and high-consumption atmosphere to this street.

When he came here, Mike, the king of heaven, knew his way like an old horse, and naturally introduced Chen Xiaotang and Madonna to a high-end bar called "Blue Earl". Seeing that he is familiar with the manager inside, people can't help but wonder if he often comes here to have fun, although he keeps saying: "As the king of pop, I am so busy that I don't even have time to go to the toilet!" ”

"Hey, dear, take out the good wine I've deposited, I'm going to have a good drink with my friends!" Mike sat down on the couch and greeted the blonde waitress.

"Dear Chen, wait a while for you to taste my wine, I bought it at a big price, I heard that it is something from the Duke of Windsor's cellar in England, 30,000 US dollars a bottle!" Mike said smugly.

Chen Xiaotang smiled, "I didn't expect you to understand wine." ”

Madonna chuckled and said, "What does he know?" I only know how to pick up expensive ones to buy, and I don't know if I am slaughtered! ”

Mike retorted, "What, isn't the most expensive the best?" For someone like me, of course, the more money you spend, the happier you are! ”

Chen Xiaotang can't help but wonder, Hollywood luxury has been popular for a long time, and those big stars often spend sky-high prices to buy sports cars and famous wines, extravagantly and extravagantly, spending money like dirt. I feel that this is enough to sting ~ excited, and it seems that my identity is special. In fact, this practice makes many celebrities look extremely rich, but in fact, the economic crisis is behind. For example, the current Mike, known as the most profitable person in the whole of Hollywood, earns hundreds of millions of dollars in a single year. But the degree of his consumption is even more amazing, earning 100 million can spend 200 million, signing a contract with a record company if he has no money, and people directly pay his deposit to let him continue to squander. It is precisely because of this that when Mike died in his previous life, he was in debt. Even his favorite castle had to be sold to pay off the debt.

Thinking of what happened to Mike in the future, Chen Xiaotang sighed, and suddenly, he had a very wonderful idea.

So Chen Xiaotang said to Mike and Madonna: "In fact, spending money is also an art. Skill is also required...... Give you a lot of money, how to spend it, whether it is well spent, whether it is good or not, whether it is wonderful or not. There's a lot of learning in it......"

Sure enough, these words immediately attracted Mike and Madonna, the king and queen.

"Oh. Chen, then according to what you mean, spending money is also knowledgeable? Mike couldn't help but say.

"Of course, if you spend a dollar and you make ten dollars. That's how well it costs money, and how well it spent! ”

"Can you still make money by spending money?" Before Mike's mind could react, Madonna said, "Chen, do you mean investment?" ”

Mike suddenly smiled and said, "I thought it was, wasn't it investing in stock futures?" Leave this stuff to those damn Wall Street brokers, and we don't have to worry about it. ”

"No, you're wrong." Chen Xiaotang suddenly said, "That kind of investment is a lazy investment, you are completely unfamiliar with that line of business, everything is based on your trust in the broker, if your broker is very good, then needless to say, your investment will definitely return, but what if he fools you?" ”

"Fool me?" Mike was stunned, "No, they're that bad?" ”

Chen Xiaotang couldn't help but laugh: "It's not bad, it's for life......"

What life needs, what life compels.

Many Wall Street investment brokers rely on their own incorruptible tongue to make a living, and Kaizi or water fish like Mike is the easiest to catch, and he doesn't like to worry about it, he doesn't like to take care of the accounts, and he is too sorry for himself if he doesn't scrape the oil from him.

Mike is not a stupid hat, after listening to Chen Xiaotang's words, he somewhat understood why he was told by his agent that he had "failed to invest", and he had to continue to paste money into it, like a bottomless pit, which could not be filled...... As for the profit, it seems that there is still at the beginning, and then it loses money one by one......

"Chen, you say, what tricks do you have, at least make me smarter, and spend my money a little smarter......" Mike tapped the $30,000 red wine, "You don't have to be like this, you will have nothing after drinking!" ”

Chen Xiaotang was waiting for Mike's words, so he sorted out his thoughts, and then said that he was going to start a music production company in Hollywood.

Chen Xiaotang's idea is very simple, it is better to be raw than cooked, not to mention that Mike and Madonna are among the best figures in today's Hollywood music scene, instead of letting their two egg-laying Golden Roosters and other companies sign up to release records, it is better to join forces to open a company, work for themselves, and make all the money that should be earned.

Mike, like Madonna, was a little surprised that Chen Xiaotang was so confident in music investment, and said: "Chen, it's not me who hits you, the water in the music industry is very deep, which is completely different from making movies, in terms of film production, you only need to finish the film, and then take it to major theaters and broadcast it." As for music, there are many aspects such as recording, mixing, post-production, advertising, and sales channels, and now the music market in Hollywood is basically monopolized by several large music companies, such as Sony, where I work, they occupy most of the market in North America, they have their own production team, and more importantly, they have their own sales channels. ”

Who said that this king Mike only knows how to concentrate on singing, look, he still knows a lot about the internal structure and operation of the music company!

Chen Xiaotang smiled slightly, and said confidently: "You don't have to worry about this, if you have an impression, you should remember that I once released a record in the North American market, and the sales were okay, and the team that helped produce it was my Magic Shadow Entertainment Company...... Of course, compared to a big company like Sony, my company obviously has a lot of shortcomings, but we can be bold......." Chen Xiaotang's eyes were burning, he originally planned to bring McLara over and dig into the corner of Sony Japan, but immediately he had a bolder idea. "Instead of competing with others, it is better to sit back and enjoy the ...... once and for all"

Chen Xiaotang's series of idioms made Mike and Madonna inexplicable.

"Dear Chen, what do you mean by that?"

"That's what I mean......" Chen Xiaotang paused for a moment, and then said, "...... Acquisition of Sony Corporation! ”

This sentence is absolutely earth-shattering!

"Acquisition of Sony? God, this can't be! Mike roared, "How could Sony be acquired?" ”

Chen Xiaotang smiled, "The Focus can be accepted by me, not to mention this Sony?!" ”

Mike was directly blocked by Chen Xiaotang's words.

Madonna's eyes widened again. (To be continued)
