Chapter 210 Send Him Two Pigs' Heads (Part I)

The next day, many media in North America reported on Zhang Yi's new film "Myth", whether it was good or bad, which was tantamount to letting more people know that there was such a film.

The actors of "The Love of People and Ghosts", except for the heroes and heroines who are determined to be played by Zhang Yi and Zhou Huimin, the rest have not yet been decided. Especially those two supporting actors, Carl and Otta.

Although Zhang Yi is also unfamiliar with life in the United States and has no connections, it is still easy to find actors. After all, Hollywood's system is much better than Hong Kong's.

If you want to find actors, you can completely go through the Guò Actors Guild.

"I'm sorry, I seem to have gone to the wrong room." A black actor walked into Zhang Yi's audition room, glanced at Zhang Yi, then smiled, turned around and left.

"Whoopi. Miss Godeberg? Zhang Yi looked at the person, then looked down at the information obtained from the actors' union, and then asked with some uncertainty.

"Oh. Do you know me? The Screen Actors Guild called and said that there was a role that asked me to audition, and the person who asked me to audition couldn't be you, right? "Whoopi. Godbao turned around in surprise and looked at Zhang Yi.

"Yes, it's me. I'm the director of this film! Zhang Yi smiled and said.

"You're a director? Oh, you, you're China Zhang, a young director from Hong Kong, China Zhang? "Naupbi. Godbao looked at Zhang Yi in great surprise.

"I'm Zhang Yi." Zhang Yi smiled and said.

"Oh my God, you actually auditioned for me. Oh, sorry, I love your movie. "Whoopi. Godebau said with some surprise.

Whoopy. Goderberg, the original version, played the medium-sized Ota vividly, and she also won the 63 Oscars for Best Supporting Actress. Of course, she may not have played the acting skills of the original version at that time, but when Zhang Yi thinks of this role, she will always think of her first.

Perhaps, she will surprise Zhang Yi. And that's exactly what happened. Naupbi. Godpao really surprised him at the audition.

"Welcome. This is the script of the movie, I hope you are familiar with it, I believe it won't be long before the movie will start. Zhang Yi smiled and said.

"Thank you!" Whoopy. Godebao smiled and said to Zhang Yi.

Two more days have passed, and Zhang Yi has never found a suitable actor to play Carl. I didn't find anything today, and I was about to leave and go to the Cameron appointment, when I suddenly walked in.

"Are you looking for actors here?" The man looked at Zhang Yi. Then he said.

"Actors are recruiting, but as long as there are supporting roles, the male number two with the most scenes!" Zhang Yi looked at the person who came, and then said.

"Can I try the role of male number two?" The man then asked.

When Zhang Yi heard this, he was stunned at first, and then laughed. Zhang Yi vaguely guessed a few points, and he had seen many of his films in his previous life. Of course, most of those films were after he became famous. Obviously, his face was undoubtedly much greener than that.

And this man is Nicholas, who has changed his original name. Cage!

He has yet to win an award in Cannes. has not yet starred in "Brave Death Island", let alone become an international superstar with great box office appeal. So far, he has only starred in a mediocre "Birdman".

Of course, there are also quite a few movies with supporting roles.

Nicholas may not have chosen as many films as Brad. Pete et al. But in terms of acting, it is definitely among the best in Hollywood. Whether it's talent, or hard work.

"Of course!" When Zhang Yi heard this, he immediately smiled. Then he briefly introduced Carl to Nicholas, and then asked him to play the role of discovering that the huge sum of four million dollars in the account was missing.

"Good! Very good! That's you. Zhang Yi clapped his hands and applauded. Nicholas's performance just now undoubtedly made Carl panic and disbelief from his demeanor and even his eyes.

There are undoubtedly only four most important actors in "Ghost Love". Of course, if you add the guy who robbed the wallet, but killed Sam by mistake, and was finally hit by a car and died, there are only five people.

After the actor is confirmed, Zhang Yi is ready to start filming, but before that, he still has to implement the cooperation with Cameron.

"In a few days, you actually wrote the script?" Cameron looked at Zhang Yi in some surprise. Hollywood is not the same as Hong Kong. Hong Kong people like Zhang Yi and Huang Baiming have written a script in one night, and they can sell well. There are even some movies that are written while shooting. But that's not the case in Hollywood, where every script is meticulously crafted.

And most of them determine the script first, and then determine the actors, or even the director.

"The script was already in my head, and it only took me a few days to write it." Zhang Yi smiled, then looked at Cameron, and said, "I don't know what Mr. Cameron thinks of this movie?" ”

"This script is undoubtedly wonderful, but it seems to be a little immature in terms of technology." Cameron then said.

"What kind of special effects technology does Mr. Cameron need? Why don't you go to my special effects company in Hong Kong first? If they can't meet Mr. Cameron's requirements. Mr. Cameron can find other special effects companies. Of course, if they can meet your technical requirements. Zhang Yi smiled and said.

"You have a special effects company in Hong Kong?" Cameron said with some surprise.

"Of course! The special effects of "Myth" are made by my special effects company. Zhang Yi said with certainty.

"What! The special effects of the movie "Myth" were actually made by your special effects company? Cameron seemed a little surprised and said, "I didn't expect Hong Kong's special effects technology to reach such a high level." ”

"Huh!" Zhang Yi smiled and did not speak.

"Then you arrange it, I'll go to your special effects company in Hong Kong first." Cameron then said.

"No problem." Zhang Yi said.

"Who do you think will star in this movie?" Cameron looked at Zhang Yi and then said.

"You're the director, and you're up to the cracks." Zhang Yi said with a smile.

Cameron was arranged by Zhang Yi to go to Hong Kong for special effects, and "Mythology" was released in North America for a week and topped the box office list with more than 15 million. And judging from its unabated attendance, it is unlikely that the box office will fall next week. Moreover, Fox seems to have plans to increase theaters.

However, Zhang Yi did not pay too much attention to these, but concentrated on filming "People and Ghosts".

In this movie, there are no big scenes, and in terms of control, Zhang Yi is naturally at ease. But there is no doubt that the acting requirements of this film are much higher than those of "Myth".

Zhang Yi's acting skills are undoubtedly not said to be better than that of Nicholas and Whoopi. Ge Debao is a little weaker than Zhou Huimin.

However, Zhang Yi has a plug-in, comprehension, and understanding that is unmatched, not to mention that he is a director, and the growth of his acting skills is jaw-dropping.

It is definitely easier for a director to be an actor than for an actor to be a director.

Zhang Yi suddenly remembered some goofs in the original, one of which was shot here today. Molly was holding her dead sleeve with blood stains, but when she went to the police station, the sleeve was clean.

In order, it is obvious that the original version was filmed first in the police station, and then in the street scene, and now it seems that the same is true for itself.

In the original version, there are also many goofs shots. Although there are not so many boring people on the Internet these days who look for goofs in movies and television every day when they have nothing to do, Zhang Yi will avoid it now that he knows it.

Of course, the goofs shot that Zhang Yi remembers the most is not that Otta's shoes changed after meeting Molly for the first time, and then the color of the shoes in the corner changed.

The one with the deepest memory is the ghost who taught Sam to move objects, and was actually hit in the head by the can that Sam kicked up. The can hit the man's head and changed direction instead of passing through.

Zhang Yi was about to ask someone to get some blood stains on the clothes Zhou Huimin was wearing, but he didn't want to be attracted by the noise outside.

"What's going on out there?" Zhang Yi glanced at Lin Xiao who came from outside and asked.

"More than a dozen people came, threatening to collect protection money." Lin Xiao said lightly.

"Collecting protection money? Isn't this the boundary of Hongmen? When Zhang Yi heard this, he was a little stunned, and then frowned and said.

Hongmen will certainly not come to collect their own protection money. Even if he and Los Angeles Hongmen got along a little happily because of Ma Mingxiang's matter. What's more, now Ma Mingxiang is already dead. His disciples don't have the courage to instigate others to collect their own protection money. (To be continued......)
