Chapter 205: A Different Lin Xilei
The finale of The Walking Dead was a lot of fun, and when the fully Western-style party was held in Atlanta, the foreigners were completely entertained. In the villa they rented, most of the crew members were very drunk, and even the pool in the villa was floating with drunks lying on rubber mats.
This group of actors was really tired during the filming of "The Walking Dead", their tiredness was not physical, but the director from the East was too much pursuit of perfection, he not only asked the actors to show the expressions of dealing with emergencies, but also brought out the mentality of the last days. For example, when someone approaches you in real life, your first reaction may be to see who this person is, but in the TV series "The Walking Dead", Shao Yingying completely deleted all this kind of bridge, and he asked the actor to touch the closest weapon to him.
Because this is in the last days, zombies and zombies will not quietly come to you and take your wallet away, that is an unintelligent creature that bites when you open your mouth, and does not give you a chance at all, at this time, if you don't give the right reaction and a sense of alertness that has been living in the last days for a long time, then how did so many of your protagonists survive in the apocalyptic environment? Is it just a camera turn, and then the subtitle says 'a few years later'?
Authentic.
Shao Yingying used this request to directly make the entire crew tired and exhausted, including Shao Yingying asking the photographer to shoot the perspective of the zombies limping with the lens.
Want to shoot a zombie perspective? This is simply a mess for the photographer, what zombie perspective do you shoot in a post-apocalyptic TV series?
But when the photographer shot the visual effect of the protagonist's escape with the cerebral thrombosis of 'Wu Lao Er next door' at the request of Shao Yingying, the entire crew was shocked, because this perspective is really terrifying!
Think about it. The camera jolts under the footsteps like zombies, and suddenly the characters of the plot appear in sight. At that moment, the zombies speed up their pace, and the characters in the plot show fear, hurry, and falling in a panic in a regular and bumpy perspective. What kind of immersion is this? This sense of substitution doesn't even have the real "The Walking Dead"!!
"Hey~~~ Shao!"
The red-faced actress Laurie Houden, the actress who plays Andrea, walked over to Shao Yingying with a wine glass: "Someone is looking for you at the door. β
Someone looking for me?
Shao Yingying didn't think that many people would come to visit the country in Mi, let alone that he hadn't met any visitors in the crew for so long......
Wu Rubo and Andrew on the side were blind and poor, and they were obviously drunk: "You, you, you're okay, just chatter, chatter, chatter when you drink some wine, it's more annoying than my wife." You said that you too, and when you came up, you gave people a big drink, how can you let me talk to you? Hey, aren't you a little scared of me? Why don't you just kill the translator? β
βPOWERοΌβ Andrew was completely misunderstood. He drank with the translator because the translator was the only Chinese he could communicate with, which was also to show their enthusiasm, and as a result, Wu Rustbo was thrown out of the ditch with a sentence of 'afraid of me'.
"Yes, I said you were afraid of me." Wu Rubo also said it again with gestures.
ANDREW RAISED HIS GLASS AND SHOUTED, "TO-POWER." β
He didn't care whether Wu Rubo understood it or not, he grabbed Wu Rubo's hand and touched the two wine glasses together.
Bite.
Shao Yingsheng made the two men who couldn't understand what the other party said laugh, and he muttered to the door: "What is this?" He said the front door building, you said elbow ......"
Stepping around the pool, Shao Yingying saw a police car when he appeared in front of the door. Looking at the flashing lights of the police car, he secretly shouted: "It's broken, don't make too much noise for the neighbors to sue." β
As soon as he walked to the door, Shao Yingying saw a black policeman standing at the door: "SORRY, SORRY......" Shao Yingying pondered for a long time and didn't know how to translate with the police: "Our MUSIC." Will it be a little smaller, You-know? Shao Yingying said this sentence with the gesture of adjusting the volume on the stereo.
The black policeman made Shao Yingying say that he was stupid, and stood at the door and pondered for a long time before he figured it out. Then he didn't know what he was talking to about that vernacular, anyway, he said a lot of things that Shao Yingying didn't understand. The only word she could understand was 'HER'.
This made Shao Yingying anxious, and he opened his mouth and scolded: "You wait." β
I just wanted to go out in a huff. A familiar voice suddenly came from the police car: "Mr. Shao, it's me." β
Shao Yingying walked back two steps, and when he heard a familiar voice coming from the car, he saw Lin Xilei, this time Shao Yingying finally breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that Lin Xilei knew English, even if he didn't know why she was here.
"What's going on?" Shao Yingying asked.
Lin Xilei explained: "I lost my wallet and passport after I got off the plane in the United States, and after calling the police, they sent me here. β
"How do you know I'm here?" Shao Yingying stared at him and couldn't figure it out.
"The police department called MGM to inquire, and found out that you were holding a finale party today, and said that you might be here, otherwise I don't know what to do."
Shao Yingying glanced at Lin Xilei and asked, "Then what now?" Do you want to get these two cops away first? β
"You directly show your work visa, prove that you are legally working in the United States, and then tell them that you know me, they have contacted the embassy to prove my identity, and now what needs to be proved is to prove our relationship, and then I can hand me over to you."
Shao Yingying shouted at the villa: "Sun Shengnan, Sun Shengnan!" Bring me my work visa!! β
Lin Xilei explained to the police in English: "I'm sorry Mr. Policeman, he doesn't understand English. He said to Shao Yingying: "Boss Shao, please tell the police 'I-was-her-boyfriend'." β
"You'll wait!"
Shao Yingying didn't understand what WAS meant, but anyone who has watched American dramas a few times understands what it means, especially BOYFRIEND: "When will I become your boyfriend?" β
Lin Xilei lowered her head and explained, "Otherwise, they wouldn't have handed me over to you." β
Shao Yingying is so angry. But what about it? can only repeat it according to what Lin Xilei said, even if it is not standard. The black cops still understood. Finally, the police looked at the visa. went through the procedure again, and gave Shao Yingying a brief introduction to the laws and regulations related to the prohibition of illegal drugs and drugs in the party before leaving, Shao Yingying and Lin Xilei were alone at the door with a black face, facing the conscientious black policeman wearing a black police uniform, and several people were completely black together.
"Why did you come to the United States?"
Finally dealt with the police, Shao Yingying found a corner at the party where there were no corpses and arranged for Lin Xilei to sit down, and took a bottle of beer to Lin Xilei.
Lin Xilei finally settled down, stretched out her hand to spread the ponytail, and didn't speak for a long time.
She didn't know what to say. Since Shao Yingying left Baodao, the entertainment industry in Baodao has become a complete mess, and the scandal between her and Fan Yiyi has been infinitely extended, and some people have dug up during the filming of "Source Code", and even more said that they were secretly in love at that time...... She now admires the imagination of the media, because in the play "Source Code", she and Fan Yiyi have no rivalry at all, and even in this play, the two have not seen each other much.
It's just that Lin Xilei's current situation is that she can neither clarify nor respond, as long as she comes forward to clarify, the media says that it is good that she wants to cover up. If the media wants to implicate Shao Yingying again, this matter will be considered a complete trouble. In this way, Lin Xilei could only hide, and when she made the decision to hide, she didn't choose to travel, go to school, etc. I bought a ticket to the United States and flew straight to Atlanta.
This is also thanks to the fact that she came a few days later than Shao Yingying, if she followed Shao Yingying to the United States. Shao Yingying was still in Hollywood during that time, and it would be even worse later. A few days later, Shao Yingying will return to China to prepare for the movie "The Wind".
Lin Xilei had a good life, just in time for Shao Yingying's finale party.
"Talk?"
Shao Yingying asked again......
Tick, tick, tick.
The phone's ringtone comes out. When Shao Yingying took out his mobile phone, he raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Xilei again: "Hey? β
"Xiao Shao, it's me."
This voice, Shao Yingying will never forget in his life: "Gao Dao." β
Gao Qunshu!
Shao Yingying was full of gratitude to Gao Qunshu who dragged him back to the line single-handedly, otherwise it would be impossible to hand over the movie "The Wind" to him, and it can be said that there is no problem at all with Shao Yingying's directing skills to direct this movie.
"I've read the script and budget, and I think it's okay, but can the heroine discuss it?"
Shao Yingying frowned, he didn't feel that his choice was much of a problem, Zhou Xun is currently developing well in Hero Huayi, and he was also sent to the crew of "Painted Skin" by the company, is such an actress Gao Qunshu still not looking down on it?
"You're not going to talk about Li Yuyi, are you?"
Shao Yingying doesn't think it should be Zhou Xun, the key is that Li Yiyi doesn't have any problems, first of all, Li Yiyi is the two female artists who chose to stay when the hero Huayi was in the most crisis, just this point, how can you hero Huayi praise others, but Shao Yingying's mind is not on Li Yiyi, Li Yiyi is completely the first sister among the free-range artists in the company.
The so-called 'free-range artist' is a bottom-level topic within the hero Huayi, that is, these people are divided into gangs, such as Fan Yiyi, Zhang Jiayi, Haiqing, these artists who are personally supported by Shao Yingying belong to the boss's lineage, who made you Shao Yingying a chicken that lays golden eggs? In addition, they are all called 'free-range artists', these artists are not cultivated by Shao Yingying himself, some of them climbed up after Zhang Wan gave him the opportunity, and some of them are relying on their own strength to break into the world under the banner of your hero Huayi, and people earn their own silver to pay protection fees safely, just for Huayi's channels and promotion.
Li Yiyi is one of the best free-range artists, not only did she not touch the light of Shao Yingying, but also turned down Du Qifeng's invitation to the movie "Butterfly Flying" last year for the sake of Hua Yi's face......
"That's right, it's Li Yuyi." Gao Qunshu continued: "It's not that I don't think Li Yiyi has acting skills, but Li Yuyi's publicity effect is too low. Xiao Shao, you arrange Lin Xilei into the group, as long as you get Lin Xilei, I can also hit the box office of over 100 million! β
"Director Gao, don't make trouble." Shao Yingying made Gao Qunshu laugh, how much is Wang Zhiwen's salary in the movie "The Wind"? The investment in the whole film is nearly 60 million, and the publicity cost has reached 80 million, is it appropriate for you to say 'box office over 100 million' when your upper lip touches your lower lip for such a movie? Do you want the hero Hua Yi to die?
"Two hundred million, Xiao Shao, at least two hundred million!"
Gao Qunshu also felt that what he said was a little inappropriate at the box office, so he quickly changed the target, but he didn't dare to say it.
"Okay, Director Gao, don't worry, you have to let me arrange the arrangement, then it's called replacing Li Yiyi, this matter can't be said clearly."
This time it can be regarded as stumped Shao Yingying, it is not a big problem to let Lin Xilei play "The Wind", even if there is a deficiency in acting skills, it is a big deal to continue to boil her like an eagle, this thing can be practiced with hard work. But what about Li Yuyi? Oh, people have followed you Huayi for so many years without crying or making trouble, and if you don't need it, you don't need others?
Shao Yingying picked up the phone and ignored Lin Xilei's dial a number: "Brother." β
Jiang Wen, Shao Yingying remembered Jiang Wen.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Wen replied very directly.
Shao Yingying said: "I have encountered a difficult thing here...... As soon as he said this, Jiang Wen understood what this meant, that is, he had to give Li Yiyi a step down.
What steps?
It's not that the crew of "The Wind" doesn't use you, it's you who let Jiang Wendian leave.
How good is this, it's nice to listen to and looks good, the crew on both sides is rushing to you Li Yiyi, you can't say that Huayi doesn't take care of you, right?
"Xiao Shao, me, I haven't made the script yet......"
Shao Yingying smiled, and he was not afraid of the things in the script: "Brother, you give me the script, and I will bring you a finished product when I return to China." β
"You almost made it hard for me to die." Shao Yingying hung up the phone and smiled at Lin Xilei.
"Aren't you inconvenient to receive me? It's okay...... Can I borrow your bank card, I will ask someone to send me some money, so that I don't have to trouble you. Lin Xilei had no money and no passport on her body, and she was trembling.
"No, you misunderstood......"
When Lin Xilei listened to Shao Yingying's retelling of these contents, she took the initiative to ask: "Won't you be too embarrassed to do this?" β
Shao Yingying shook his head: "It's a little difficult, but fortunately, I can handle it." β
"Then ......" Lin Xilei looked up at Shao Yingying and said, "Have you ever visited the United States?" β
"How can I have that kind of kung fu, after I came, I was constantly calculating and filming, and after I came, I knew a Hollywood, an Atlanta, and now I can't speak English, where to visit?"
"That's it, I'll be your tour guide, anyway, I've been to the country a few times, if you're not busy, I'll take you here to have a good time."
At the beginning of 2008, Shao Yingying found that Lin Xilei is a completely different woman from Fan Yuyu and Gao Yuanyuan, you can't expect this woman to be as domineering as Fan Yuanyuan, let alone expect her to be as good as Gao Yuanyuan, but she is a very good companion.
She won't help you do the laundry when your clothes are dirty, but she will reach out and take the liquid from the coffee spoon and wipe the same spot on her long white dress; She won't ask you if you're tired, she won't ask you what to do, she'll be by your side until you have fun, even if you're asleep on the beach while watching the sunset; She can't make what you like, but she knows where the local fruit pudding is delicious; I won't shout about the cold, but I can talk to you about Shakespeare when I watch an opera on Broadway.
Shao Yingying stayed in the United States for three more days, and in these three days, he not only negotiated with MGM about the specific matters of "Super Body", but also spent more time, under the leadership of the free tour guide, he listened to Lin Xilei explain the customs of the United States and experienced the gentleness in his ears.
